Translator: flycrane01 Editor: Millman97
"The production of Firefly had already begun, and I could not stop it because I could not stay in the Flying Star Sector . However, I could not go to the Heaven's Origin Sector for real, either .
"Both the Flying Star Sector and the Heaven's Origin Sector have billions of human beings . There are my family and friends as well as countless compatriots . It would be a complete tragedy if the Blood Stripe went on a rampage in either Sector .
"Perhaps, I could adjust the coordinates of Firefly and made it jump to a desolate, unpopulated Sector?
"But technically speak, it was difficult to achieve .
"Firefly was designed for the short-distance space jump between two neighboring Sectors . By no means could it jump to millions of lightyears away .
"Besides, the adjustment of such a scale would likely have been found out by the control center and the Blood Stripe Virus .
"I began to think . Was there a place that was devoid of human beings and within my reach as long as I changed one or two parameters in the thousands of coordinate settings?
"Hehe . You must have guessed it .
"Exactly . The Blood Demon Sector!
"The Blood Demon Sector has been preliminarily merged with the Heaven's Origin Sector . They are like twin worlds . The parameters of the Blood Demon Sector and the Heaven's Origin Sector in the four-dimensional universe are 99 . 9% identical and have only a 0 . 01% difference!
"I made the decision!
"The Blood Stripe Virus meant to completely corrupt my soul and take control over my mind during the space jump . Then, I would tempt it with 'Firefly' as the battlefield and start a final battle!
"Even if I failed the final battle, I would not allow them to go to the Heaven's Origin Sector to enslave my family, friends, and compatriots!
"Therefore, I pretended that I was fooled and joined the production of Firefly actively . I even read a lot of books on the technology of space jumps and learned the methods to reset the navigation system and to manually control the starship .
"Firefly would be piloted by me alone . Should there be a fault, I could only fix it by myself . It was only natural that I learned knowledge on those topics . The Bloody Stripe Virus would not have been suspicious about my behavior .
"During my studies, I grasped the coordinates of the Blood Demon Sector as I planned . I also learned how to activate the emergency maintenance mode and manually adjust the coordinates of the destination .
"In the four hours of precious 'absolutely safe time' while I had the Soul Monitor on, I gathered all the mental attack magical equipment that Xiao Xuance had prepared to deal with Bai Xinghe and extracted the most valuable core units . I then built them into a piece of unprecedently powerful magical equipment for mental attacks . The immense spiritual waves released from the device were enough to tear apart the soul of an unparalleled expert!
"To avoid the suspicion of the Blood Stripe Virus, after I refined a 'soul bomb' four times, I stopped using the Soul Monitor .
"Everything was peaceful again .
"I pretended that I was relieved and dedicated myself to my training and the production of 'Firefly' .
"The Blood Stripe Virus stopped messing around with me for a long time, too .
"From the virus' perspective, now that the host was walking on the 'right' path and everything was going on as it had planned, it was indeed unnecessary to ask for more trouble by interfering with or prying into the host's soul . If the host was suspicious again at the last moment, it would be the victim of its own scheme .
"Or rather, maybe the Blood Stripe Virus was accumulating its strength in secret, too, preparing to possess my body during the space jump!
"Today is the last day before our departure .
"I activated the Soul Monitor and received an hour of 'absolutely safe time' during the last examination on Sparkle . Then, I slightly adjusted the parameters of the destination of Sparkle and hid the 'soul bomb' inside the control panel before I connected the bomb to the self-destruction rune array .
"Right now, the usage of the self-destruction rune array on Firefly has changed .
"Only after the self-destruction rune array is triggered during the space jump will the starship be shifted to the correct route and return to the Heaven's Origin Sector with everybody .
"If the self-destruction array is not triggered, Firefly will remain its trajectory toward the Blood Demon Sector and detonate the 'soul bomb' when the space jump is about to be completed!
"Do you understand?
"If I haven't triggered the 'self-destruction rune array' before the space jump is over, it is indicative that I have been controlled by the Blood Stripe Virus . It will be the Blood Stripe Virus that occupies my brain and soul . My own soul will perhaps be lurking in the deepest part of my brain, completely overwhelmed by the intruder .
"As a result, when the soul bomb is detonated and the blast sweeps across Firefly and pierces through my brain, it will be the soul of the Blood Stripe Virus that takes the blow!
"Its soul will be the best shield for my soul!
"I will launch the last counterattack when its soul is ripped apart and try to suppress, swallow, and purge the Blood Stripe Virus!
"This is my whole plan, one whose success rate is close to zero, because the entire plan is based on the presumption that the Blood Stripe Virus does not know what I am thinking at all times .
"Maybe its strength far exceeds my imagination, and it has learned everything .
"Therefore, I strongly suggest that, if you find Firefly next to yourselves after you arrive in the Heaven's Origin Sector, you must impose the strictest quarantine upon me . You must not believe anything that I say, even if I tell you that I've successfully suppressed the Blood Stripe Virus . Do not believe anything!
"In such a case, I'm very likely to have been fully controlled by the Blood Stripe Virus like Yan Xibei used to be .
"If you do not find Firefly, don't be worried . It is a piece of good news that suggests that my plan has succeeded… at least partly .
"I'm already back home; I'm just landing on the other side of it .
"There are too many burdens and concerns in the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Flying Star Sector . I would worry that the Blood Stripe Virus might infect my family, friends, and compatriots all the time .
"It is very likely that the Blood Stripe Virus will do insane things while they are manipulating my body . For example, killing one of my family or friends, as a way to shake my belief .
"When I ask myself if I can be unwavering when one of my close friends is killed by me, I do not have the confidence to say yes .
"The Blood Demon Sector is different .
"I have zero concerns there . I can fight the Blood Stripe Virus however I want without worries . Even if I am blinded by bloodthirst when I am occasionally manipulated by the Blood Stripe Virus, it will not matter because there will be no friends but only foes .
"Alright . I'm running out of time . This is about everything .
