255 The Coming Crisis

"Although the future of the Blue-Eyed White Dragon is very exciting, the most important thing now is really them." After a brief discussion, Yukikaze refocused his attention on the stream of data on the screen that was large enough to make ordinary people faint.

Although he has become a mechanical family, and with the support of a high-performance (relatively low) processor, Xuefeng can clearly see and know everything on the screen, but he still feels dizzy.

"How? How much can you get? Sitting on the seat next to Xue Feng, Ellie tidied up the mouse and keyboard in front of her~ and asked.

It took a lot of time, and after Xue Feng looked at everything very carefully, he said helplessly to Ellie: "No...... It's still too piecemeal. Although it is possible to obtain some valuable data by comparing it with previous forecasts, it is not of much help in understanding the laws and nature of the world as a whole. After all, those data are valuable, and they can also be obtained through predictions, and at most they can correct some of the mistakes in our predictions. ”

"And unfortunately, those few misunderstandings now are not important. At least it doesn't matter to me now, and to us now. ”

That's right, the data recorded on the screen in front of Xue Feng and the two of them is the various information changes recorded by this plane in the great changes of heaven and earth, by the various technological sides of the Garden of Eden, the mysterious side, etc., which almost brought together all the detection equipment in the cognition of Xue Feng and others. From the speed of light to the amount of oxygen in the air, all the data obtained is gathered here, so the huge amount of data makes even Yukikaze feel dizzy, let alone others.

"There's no way, Ellie, now I can only ask you to help me process this data one step further." After Xue Feng finished talking about the results, he said to Ellie with a wry smile.

Of course, in terms of information and data, if Ellie says that she is just an ordinary person, then Yukikaze is just illiterate.

majoring in quantum theory, coupled with the independent completion of the first virtual reality game "SAO", and by virtue of his own completion of the Cardinal game master control system similar to the three-sage system (Cardinal is two programs that maintain and correct errors with each other, while the three sages are singular and plural programs with multiple logical judgments).

Ellie's talent and achievements in information engineering, electronic programming, and science and technology theory are unquestionable. If it weren't for the fact that her physical state was on the verge of the limit, coupled with the obsession that had penetrated into her heart, otherwise Ellie would likely become a super-nova genius on the technology side.

(To note here, although the most important thing for a supernova genius is talent, if you want to reach this level, you must be favored and blessed by the world, that is, you must have completed a truly great deed.) Because of this, after becoming a member of Hades, or going to another plane by chance, you can no longer get this honorific title.)

"We've been expecting this for a long time, haven't we?" After hearing Xuefeng's answer, Ellie in Lori's body began to tap on the keyboard in front of her, and at the same time, she smiled at Xuefeng with a gentle smile like a big sister, and said to Xuefeng, "Since this data is of little use to you now, what are you going to do now, Sister Xuefeng?" ”

"I'm going to see those guys." Xue Feng got up and walked towards the outside world, "Since the control host of the Garden of Eden has to supply energy with all its might, even if it enters a state of complete silence, then the value of the other party should be large enough." ”

"Those guys? It's good. Ellie nodded and said, "Although the control host has recorded some data, it is not detailed and complete. It's a good idea to research it while you have time now. ”

That's right, on the day Lilian woke up, Yukikaze and Ellie had time to interpret and study the data. A few days ago, Yukikaze and Ellie acted as follows:

Needless to say on the first day, when Yukikaze was trying to restore the energy supply, Aili was directly interpreting various data in the special computer room where the data hard disk was stored to understand the reason.

And the next day, Xue Feng finally used the magic array to build a semi-permanent energy supply system that could meet the energy needs of the entire Garden of Eden, among which, the high concentration of pseudo-magic energy that is now full of heaven and earth has helped Xue Feng a lot. It was precisely because of the high concentration of these pseudo-magical energies that the temporary concentrating magic array that Xue Feng originally planned to build was almost directly transformed into a semi-permanent magic array. So Xuefeng simply didn't do anything and directly upgraded it to a semi-permanent energy supply system.

Seriously, the output of this one energy supply system is not much different from any of the three energy supply systems on the island. It's just that Eden no longer needs to run the virtual reality game "TheNewWorld", nor does it need to run some high-energy equipment, such as more than a dozen life-sustaining devices, so the energy consumption has been reduced by more than two-thirds of the original total energy consumption.

On this day, Ellie successfully launched the control host of the Garden of Eden and began to make program adjustments to the host. After all, although it seems that the Garden of Eden is not damaged in any way, except for the three external energy supply systems. But in fact, in the great changes of heaven and earth, a considerable part of the systems and equipment of Eden were still lost.

Although it is not a huge underground base, and even some large mines that have been excavated long enough in terms of size, as an underground base with a complete range of aspects, including a self-defense system, the number of systems and equipment contained in it is definitely beyond most people's imagination.

It's just that for Xuefeng and others, even if all of these systems and equipment disappear completely, it doesn't matter at all.

The adjustment made by Elle to the control host is to allow some of the systems to bypass the missing systems and equipment, so that the entire base can be up and running again in the shortest possible time.

Another reason is that the control host seems to have gained some benefits from the great changes in heaven and earth, and has begun to evolve in the direction of intelligent life.

After all, after the change occurs, all the energy is supplied to a facility at any cost, no matter how important that facility is, but this is not in the setting of the host by Xue Feng and others. In other words, even if the importance of that facility can be compared to the data in a special computer room, a host that only runs according to a preset program will never behave like this.

And if this host did do this behavior, then the probability is very small. Under the inspection of Aili and Xuefeng, after ruling out the fault of the host and the line and the short circuit of the logic program of the host, there is only one result in the end: this host is evolving towards real life!

Reverse logic, or self-logical interpretation, also known as sophistry, distorting the command itself in a way that distorts the command itself, is absolutely impossible for artificial intelligence. And once this can be done, then the ticket to evolve into a real intelligent life has already been obtained by this artificial intelligence.

Eden's control host, based on the previously recorded data, after judging the importance of that facility by comparison, raised the protection level of this facility to the same level as the special computer room, thus violating the goal that Xuefeng and others said at the beginning that had a second priority: to protect themselves as much as possible, shut down all unnecessary systems and facilities, enter a silent state with the lowest energy consumption, and wait for the return of themselves and others.

Perhaps the birth of a truly intelligent life will have a huge impact on human society. But for the Dragons of the Watch Legion, whose own leader is the highest mechanical life, the evolution of this console can be said to be a happy thing.

Unfortunately, however, it was precisely because of this console's judgment that this evolution failed.

There is no fairness in this world, because the world is absolutely fair. Everything is an equivalent exchange, but in the eyes of the world, all things are of equal value.

Therefore, no matter what kind of life wants to evolve, it must have enough energy to support it. And not having enough energy to support it means that this evolution has failed.

It's a pity that after the Eden host made that judgment and completed his own behavior and began to embark on the path of evolution, he had to shut himself down because of the exhaustion of energy, which led to the failure of this evolution.

And in this misfortune, there is also the existence of luck.

Because the host self-judged that the energy was insufficient, the shutdown interrupted this evolution. So, though, because of the failure of evolution, the internal data has become quite troublesome. But as long as it is reorganized and sorted out, as long as there are enough opportunities, this console can embark on the road of evolution again, and the process will be much smoother than the first evolution.

The only trouble is that the so-called opportunity may come in the next moment, but it is more likely that it will not appear until the end of the world.

Xuefeng and others can do for this host, that's all there is to it.

As for the third day, Yukikaze and Ellie's job is to sort through the data stored in the Garden of Eden......

Indeed, in the great changes of heaven and earth, because of the plan made by Xue Feng and others in advance, all the numbers stored in the Garden of Eden and its interior survived. But just as the loss of the Garden of Eden is not small, even if the data has no entity and can be preserved, except for the data recorded after the great change, all the other data has become garbled characters.

If it weren't for the fact that Xue Feng and Ellie's decoding ability was strong enough, they could directly declare that all the efforts made by Xue Feng and the others before had failed.

So, on the fourth day, the day Lilian woke up, Yukikaze and Ellie had time to study and interpret the various data recorded in the Garden of Eden.

Just as the Lilian trio began to prepare for another voyage (did they really need to prepare anything?). ), and Yukikaze, when the two officially entered the data interpretation work, they were in the castle of Kawagoe City on the other side of the sea.

Although in the great battle at the end of the month, there are still people who die for it. But with the passage of time, the strength of the human beings fighting on the front line continues to rise, and now six months later (it was written incorrectly, when Lilian and the three arrived on the island where the Garden of Eden is located, it was already June 23rd, and now it is June 26th), there are already human powerhouses who have reached level 5, so the casualty figures in all cities in the world, including Kawagoe City, are decreasing.

But even if the reduction is so large, as long as there are sacrifices, then the battle at the end of the month will not be easily spent by everyone in a festive atmosphere.

In the castle of Kawagoe City, everyone is ready for a big battle. The defenses, which took six months to perfect, were all prepared a few days ago. Originally, because there were not many people, the streets were too deserted, and because of this, they were doubly lonely.

Through the previous six wars, everyone already knew that the outbreak of the great war must be on the last day of the month. However, even if you understand this, with the advancement of time, everyone is still prepared with a handy weapon all the time.

Regardless of men, women, young and old, those who can survive to this day, even if they are not good at fighting, are skilled enough to protect themselves in the chaos of war.

That is to say, under the pressure of the environment~ under the compulsion, human beings truly achieve that all people are soldiers. Moreover, almost with the experience of the Great War, everyone can be said to be able to become an elite existence with a little training. An army composed of these people, even if it has just been formed, is enough to be called a strong army!

The best and worst times are always the same era!

And with the tense spirit of everyone in the city, in addition to the cold silence, the atmosphere in the city also began to become heavier, and even felt the faint bloody illusion. It's just that everyone has adapted to this heavy atmosphere, and even many people's hearts have begun to become active because of this atmosphere, and the flow rate of blood is constantly accelerating.

Bloodthirsty and warlike people have never been lacking.

In the basement of the Kawagoe City Lord's Mansion, Chrissy is operating a virtual keyboard to process data from the T.P.H.E. work platform, which has begun to gradually cover the skies over Japan and build a communication network, while also adjusting the operation of some T.P.H.E. work platforms as needed.

At this moment, with the sound of the door opening, a petite figure walked in from outside the door.

Chrissy, who is still in a working state, can know who the person who walked into this room without looking back, and at the same time clearly know the status of the other party and other situations: "Kiriko? Even though the city's defenses are now ready, I don't think you've already taken care of your business and come to us by this time. ”

As the lord of the castle with the highest authority, Kiriko's life and status are the best in the city, and at the same time, the most responsible. Everything that happened in Kawagoe City the day before, Kiriko had to look at it and make her own judgment. As a result, Kiriko had to spend at least one morning a day on official business and had no vacations.

And if something urgent happens on this day, Kiriko's working hours will have to continue to increase.

Of course, this is also because Kiriko's personality is extremely serious, and some lazy city lords will not really see all the documents with their own eyes.

"And I didn't wear the maid costume prescribed by Yukikaze......"

As a maid, you naturally have to wear the maid costume prepared for you by your master during working hours, which is the foundation of the basics! ――by Yukikaze

Therefore, after finishing her official duties, Kiriko will change into the maid costume prepared by Yukikaze and come to this basement to provide various services for Yukikaze and others.

I know that you must be crooked.,I'll tell you directly.:Although it's not a traditional maid costume.,But what Xuefeng prepared is just a maid costume in the second dimension.,That is, the standard costume of the clerk in the maid café.。 And the service, of course, is just serving tea and pouring water, plus the preparation of breakfast, lunch and dinner, and supper.

Although Yukikaze is indeed a bad taste, it is just a bad taste.

After judging Kiriko's intentions, Chrissy put down the keyboard in her hand, turned her body and said to Kiriko, "Say, what do you want to entrust us with this time?" ”

"Because the report submitted by the adventurers before, saying that the beasts and monsters in the east of the city are in a rather unstable state, and they are more irritable than the monsters in other places, and they have more desire to attack, as time progresses, it seems to be showing a gradual escalation trend, at least the casualty rate of adventurers in the east is constantly increasing."

Kiriko explained to Chrissy seriously, although Chrissy had more or less mastered a little bit of this information, but Chrissy did not interrupt Kiriko's narration, but listened attentively.

"So, two days ago, I sent two teams of high-level adventurers to the depths of the forest to the east to conduct a preliminary exploration. Unfortunately, neither of the two teams has heard anything so far. ”

"So, yesterday, I asked Baihui to go to the eastern forest to investigate while looking for those two squads."

"Wise choice and judgment." Chrissy affirmed Kiriko's approach, and then expressed her guess about the matter in an affirmative tone, "The final result is that Momoe didn't find those two teams, but found something else in the process, such as some kind of more threatening large-scale monster group, heading towards Kawagoe City. ”

This is the most probable of all. Another possibility with great possibility is that Baihui is also nowhere to be seen, and no information is passed back. But this is the least likely one, not only because only a day has passed in time, but more importantly, Baihui's survivability is the strongest in Kawagoe City, and the talent of the ghost body is not a joke.

If even Baihui is trapped in it and can't even pass the information, it means that even if Kiriko makes a move, Kawagoe City doesn't know if it can escape this catastrophe. (If the number of people is too small, the situation will only get worse and worse, and eventually lead to the destruction of the city.)

Therefore, Kiriko will not walk into the basement so calmly, but will rush into this basement anxiously all the way.

And Kiriko did nod in agreement, indicating that Chrissy's guess was correct: "Momoe has discovered an extremely dangerous black twisted monster that is heading towards Kawagoe City from the forest to the east. Although the one found has been solved by Baihui, through the examination of the traces, it was found that the number of the other party was definitely quite a lot. ”

"Therefore, I would like to entrust you with the specific situation of the forest to the east, and if something does happen, to find out the cause and effect of this matter as well."

"Is it just probing, not solving?" After Kiriko nodded, Chrissy nodded slightly and said, "Another wise choice and judgment." If you just probe, the price you need to pay is small enough, and you'll be ready to come here. ”

After Chrissy said the price Kiriko needed to pay, Kiriko nodded in agreement without hesitation.

"Then, the commission is established!"

PS: Sorry, it's not a good day to be in a bad state, so that's all there is to it. (To be continued.) )
