Chapter 15: The Demon Overhead

Pillars of orange light shone slightly, revealing scars on pale skin, and slender fingers ran across the AED device that connected the entire spine.

"Wait a minute~ Master. G41 said she was doing regular checks on Patrick's AED unit, and all that was left was the transmission attached to the shoulder blade.

Patrick waited silently, eyes falling to the floor.

"Is there a place you'd like to go today? G41. He asked.

"No," G41 replied the same answer countless times, his chin resting on his shoulder, "as long as you stay with your master, you'll be satisfied." ”

"Is that so......" Patrick raised his hand and gently stroked her head.

Always...... Patrick thought. There's nothing bad about it now, no, but he's unpleasant for no reason. Maybe give him a little more time and he'll find out.

A little more time......

"Sorry to disturb you," a frantic voice entered his brain, and as if he had been awakened, he suddenly raised his head, "Can I come to the Triangle Tower?"

"Will the three sides look for me?" asked Patrick.

"No, it's Jefuti. ”

Really...... Is she finally willing to face him?

"yes, I see. Patrick stood up and grabbed his coat from the bed, "G41, change your clothes, it's time to go." ”

"Okay. ”

The two of them left the apartment, got into a frenzied car, and drove for about thirty minutes until they came to a triangular columnar building, standing in the very center of a triangular clearing. Walking through the flower-adorned walkway, a three-letter triangle is hung above the gate of the pedangular tower, indicating that this is the seat of the highest authority of the state.

Each floor of the Triangle Tower has a main room, located in the center, through which Fran's AI core is connected to maximize its performance. Almost every layer has different functions, and of course, the hardware and servers that store and run large amounts of data.

After getting off the elevator, they came to the side of the lounge door according to the mad instructions.

"G41, you wait for me outside. ”

With that, Patrick pushed the door open and entered. Jefti sat by the window, her supple silver hair wearing a black hairpin, and her slender hands wrapped in a pair of white gloves.

"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"

"Hmmm......"

"Is there anything you can do with meeting me in a place like this?" said Patrick, still standing at the table.

"I want to speak to you privately, as an individual of Jefti, not as a queen. She picked up the teacup, pursed her lips slightly, and didn't look at him, "Although I still have many questions, the first one I want to know is you, Patrick Flo." ”

Patrick exhaled, pulled out his chair and sat down.

"Why ......," he whispered.

"I think it's time for me to make up my mind and decide whether or not to be your 'king'. ”

"After all, you still don't believe me?"

"How can you possibly believe that no matter the relatively free environment on the surface of this country, the flourishing scene of the coexistence of human form and humans, or the seemingly equal and objective trilateral meeting, aren't the people standing behind you?"

Patrick was motionless, his cold gaze confronting the girl in front of him, silent. After a while, he pulled a pistol from his waist, loaded it, slapped it on the table, and pushed it in front of Gefti.

His unbelievable actions clearly made Jeffrey hesitate.

"If you think it's all just a floating utopia, kill me," Patrick's voice came from deep in his throat, "and it will take away your worries and give you a firm grip on what you have." ”

Jeffetti bit her lower lip slightly, then stopped worrying and picked up the pistol and aimed it at Patrick's eyebrows.

"I don't understand...... her hand swayed from side to side, the muzzle of the gun trembled slightly, "I don't understand the meaning of what you are doing, the sacrifice you have made, but you have not gained any benefit from yourself." ”

"I've never thought about it, I'm just doing what I want to do, that's all. ”

"That's all...... That's it?"

"Probably what you call a 'dream', if it were the adjudicator, she would laugh at me and say that it was a self-inflicted 'errand'. If I have to say meaning, it's proof of my existence. ”

Jeffetti held her breath and pressed the trigger's fingers tightly.

“......”

Eventually, she lowered her arm and put the pistol back on the table.

"Patrick, there's a situation," Madness accessed the comms, "Come to the World Phenomena Observation Center." ”

"I see, I'll go now. He stood up.

"Are you just saying those pretty things?" asked Jeffrey.

"You came to me first to explain the truth, and it is up to you to judge whether you believe it or not. ”

As the name suggests, the World Observatory is a room for observing the entire world. Here, the AI will aggregate information from various sources, display it on hundreds of screens and holographic projections, and update it in real time. Of course, generally speaking, the amount of data here is still too large, so just tell the AI the information she wants, and she will extract the corresponding part.

At this time, when Patrick entered the observation center, a round projector was playing an image of a large object, and several monitors had multiple visual images of the object from different angles, as well as the data parameters marked out.

"Huh, didn't Jeffetti come along?" the crazy hologram turned to face him, "Obviously notified her to come, too." ”

"Let her be quiet. ”

"Whatever, then I'll talk about it first. ”

Patrick's gaze always fell on the holographic projection: "Is this a space station?"

"That's right, the 'Selene' space station of the Southern Union, launched from the South Pole in 2090, actually collapsed and teleported directly to space, and a satellite railgun is being built on it, which is a very dangerous thing. ”

Selene...... Is the Moon Goddess......

"How did you find it?" asked Patrick.

"Southern Union used its field remote sensing to reconnoiter us, which I discovered and prevented, and then I traced it back to its location. You don't know how difficult those guys are in Nanlian, I did everything I could to get this point. ”

Patrick was too lazy to listen to the mad whining. He knew that field remote sensing was the application of relic technology, using the principle of the so-called "field", under the action of a certain induction, it could be accurate to the detection of a cat in the streets and alleys.

"It seems that Southern Union has taken action against us. ”

"Yes, from the feedback and analysis received by Luo Lian, the Southern Union is very good at intelligence warfare, and after the remote sensing reconnaissance fails, they will definitely pay attention to it and will not give up. ”

"Then I'll have to give them another dismount. ”

"Hahaha," laughed maniacally, "that's right. Other than that......"

The sound of the door opening interrupted him, and both Jefti and Noyeru walked in through the door.

"Just then, the people have arrived. ”

"Noyero?"

"Why, do you hate to see me?" Noyeru folded her arms around her chest, her words full of displeasure, "I'm not happy yet!"

"I told her to come," said the madman, hurrying to stop the quarrel Noyelu had tried to provoke, "she has the same right to know as Noyelu does." ”

"What the hell is going on?" asked Noyeru again.

"Soon after stopping the remote sensing reconnaissance of the Southern Union, I intercepted an unknown signal, which I had not encountered so far. "After comparing the database to no avail, I had to fabricate this signal, and found that it reacted to both Gephti and Noyero, in a similar way to the way the collapsing fluid recognizes organic matter. ”

"Does that mean anything?"

"I immediately traced the source of the signal, and it turned out to be from the South Pole, as I expected. ”

"Could it be ......" Hearing this, Noyelu's face changed.

"It's almost certain that it was Southern Union who used Lunicia in search of Gefti. That's probably what she's capable of. ”

G-264, Lunessia, one of the subjects of the "Three Goddesses" project. Several words crossed Patrick's mind.

"Lunicia...... Herald ......," Jeffetti muttered in a low voice.

"Eh, sister, what did you just say?"

"No ......"

"So, what are you going to do?" asked the frenzied projection, spreading his hands.

"I'm going to deal with the intelligence officers sent by the Southern Union. "As for the space station, if the satellite railgun is not yet completed, it is not a threat at the moment, so let's keep watching." Lunicia's words, I want her to be our inside line in Southern Union, and I have to establish contact with her, so that I can know her personal safety at any time, is that okay?

"Well, no problem......" Jefti nodded slowly.

"Alright, then I'll get in touch with Lunicia as much as I can," said Mad as the hologram vanished, "Patrick, let Fran take over for the time being." ”

"I see. ”
