   The author, a senior scientist in a research position, has always lamented the scarcity of hard science fiction works since Liu Cixin, and couldn't resist trying his hand at writing. Scientists are also human, but traditional science fiction often presents a relatively detached view of emotions. *The Origin of Pain* is a completely new perspective on hard science fiction, yet it still features sweet and faithful first love, suitable for both men and women. It's short, avoids dragging, and has a strong sense of realism. The classic chapter is Chapter 13, "One Person, One Thousand Faces." "The Year of Artificial Intelligence? You're not talking about that GPU bubble in history, are you? Before the birth of the pain program, humanity thought they had developed artificial intelligence. Looking back now, it was just a GPU-intensive search engine and data analyzer, not self-evolving silicon-based intelligence at all."

    The sounds of Li Xingyun pounding on the ship's cabin were loud and frantic. Although the crew couldn't see what Li Xingyun was doing, they could tell from the sounds that he was going through something terrible. Li Xingyun was a god in their eyes. This description was not an exaggeration at all. Now, their god was not only acting madly but also uttering incoherent words—this situation left the entire crew of the Xuan Turtle Ship at a loss. This was also why the crew didn't know how to answer Liu Ning's questions. In fact, most of the crew members on the Xuan Turtle Ship were busy in various places. The few remaining crew members didn't dare to go to Li Xingyun's side. To be honest, Li Xingyun had never shouted at the student crew members. But authority isn't something that can be created by shouting. The authority Li Xingyun possessed stemmed from his battle achievements and the students' awe of their 'god'. This is why the student crew members dared not approach Li Xingyun. It was fortunate they didn't. Otherwise, with Li Xingyun's mind nearly eroded by evil fire, who knows what he might have done. As for Li Xingyun, he was currently on the verge of collapse. His steps were gradually moving towards the transport ship where Yun Ying was being held. That was the only place he could go. Besides Liu Ning, he could only seek out Yun Ying. Although there were Lina, Xi Ya, and Yi Yun to choose from, Li Xingyun had already lost twice to Lina. He didn't want to fall into her hands again. As for Xi Ya and Yi Yun, he wasn't familiar with them. How could he possibly harm them? And Yun Ying, she had been defeated by Li Xingyun several times. Li Xingyun already felt a sense of superiority towards her. Furthermore, Li Xingyun was still plotting against Yun Ying; if he really did that to her, it would be like playing a pawn. Under these two circumstances, Li Xingyun's arrival here was understandable. He was now fluctuating between lucidity and collapse. His steps faltered constantly, making his journey to the Yunying ship seem particularly long. But the journey eventually came to an end. With time passing, he finally approached Yunying. After much hesitation, the door of the ship where Yunying was located was finally opened by Li Xingyun, who was panting heavily. Yunying, no longer bound, instinctively reacted with fear upon seeing Li Xingyun's bloodshot eyes, his terrifying expression, and his half-naked body. This simple action instantly extinguished the last vestige of Li Xingyun's consciousness. He roared and lunged at Yunying...
