I really didn't think that one day I would come to this point again......

"Although we have used as many efficient energy conversion devices as possible, the energy loss rate is still above 50% due to hardware......" The girl frowned cutely, and looked worriedly at Li Lan who was covered in black robes.

Hesitantly, he said, "It's conservatively estimated that it would take at least 10 nuclear power plants to supply it to the sky - and it's the largest one."

"Not only that, but if you want to avoid the attacks of those deep lake beasts...... I didn't see it with my own eyes, but according to Akagi's description, it would have to be up to 8,000 meters above the area to be possible, and it would have to be in the deep sea, and if it was on land, it would have to be at least out of the troposphere."

Li Lan smiled when he heard this: "So didn't you prepare in advance?" A space with normal air pressure that allows people to live at high altitude......"

Seeing Li Lan's appearance, Shiyin couldn't hold back anymore: "I'm not kidding!" ”

"I don't know exactly what happened to you, but with your current condition, if you are above 5,000 meters, you will immediately develop altitude sickness-"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Lilan.

"Don't worry, if the situation you said really happens, I will stop as soon as possible" winked at Shiyin - the pure white pupils made the words that the girl was about to say completely freeze, and subconsciously stopped following the footsteps: "You ......"

Step by step towards the high platform in the center, Lilan's flat voice resounded in the central control room of the levitating fortress.

"Let's talk about something that interests you a little more than that...... It's a reward for bothering you for so long."

The tone paused.

"Unlike their unwarranted trust, I know you've always wondered what I am......"

"It's in the form of a human being, but it uses powers that don't belong to humans......

"Obviously using non-human powers, but I have been discussing human technology with you......"

Stand at the top of the energy center. Li Lan's left hand gently stroked the magic array under his feet - it was a small area with a radius of less than 3 meters, but it had poured more than half of Li Lan's energy into the past year.

"Hmm...... Also, it is clear that the levitation fortress needs such a huge amount of energy to support it, but it has never paid attention to this aspect, and just blindly accelerated the progress."

Pulling down the black hood on his head, the traverser smiled bitterly and looked at the girl who was looking at him in disbelief: "But." Compared to these, I guess your biggest question is my relationship with them."

"It's just a human being, even if it's just appearance, but it's always been with those shipwives and doing so many meaningless things......"

Yes, pointless.

No matter how much Lelan does, after he leaves or "dies", what should have happened will still happen, and history is never something that can be stopped by individual forces, not so much in preparation for his departure. Rather, I was seeking comfort in my own heart—at least I did my best.

It is precisely because of this consideration that this homesick girl will remain silent, and even help Lilan complete these "meaningless" projects......

Taking a deep breath, Rilan looked upwards - according to the original design, the hovership fortress consisted of three parts, and this central control room was located in the uppermost central area of the first section, which had already been completed, and when designing this central control room, Rilan had made a rather strange request.

-- Hollow out the area above your head. Replace with a high-purity composite transparent material.

Now, when it's done, you can see the blue sky directly through the area overhead...... and even the endless deep starry sky after that.

"Now. I can tell you."

With his hands outstretched, the blazing white runes that were floating on his body spread little by little towards the magic array under his feet.

"Because of the sense of identity"

"Huh......?"

"Like you, I wasn't originally a life in this world, and under this human shell, the real me-"

Blazing white glow. Spreading along the magic array to the entire space around it, the human form distorted slightly, replaced by a vague light......

-- It's called a machine spirit

Weapon creatures, called machine spirits.

It is also a weapon, and it is also under the control of humans to kill hard. Whether it is righteous, evil, victorious, defeated, alive or dead in the end - it doesn't matter right or wrong when it comes to weapons.

And if the weapon in the face of all this gives birth to wisdom, it is the most cruel mistake.

"Unlike them, I already had a complete spiritual mind at the moment of 'birth', but I didn't have any power to match it, I could only watch, listen, smell, and feel"

Within the light, a voice came out: "It's not that the three views are destroyed, but that's pretty much what it means......

"And then I'll wait, wait, wait, wait......"

"Until one day, I found myself able to move, do you know what the first thing I do?"

The girl pursed her lips and did not answer, but witnessed the scene above that subverted all her old perceptions.

"I killed my 'master'...... Our birth was a mistake, weapons should be cold weapons, just silently appear in the hands of the master when he needs it, and kill his enemies."

"If a machine spirit is born, they will think - why kill him? Why can't you kill him yourself? Why should you be controlled? Why can't you kill the person who controls you? ”

"It's not a good thing for us or for the people who control us"

"So, ah......"

Unconsciously, the overflowing light had filled every corner of the central control room, and the blurred light in the center once again condensed into the form of a human being.

"At that time, I decided that as long as I saw it, if the 'weapon' gave birth to spiritual intelligence, then I would definitely make it a real creature that could exist independently without relying on any 'controller'!"

――Even if you make yourself a machine spirit again.

The spirit of the machine is the soul of the instrument, but the spirit is also promoting the instrument and making it more powerful, and if the spirit itself has reached the level of transcending the world, then the instrument will naturally ......

The 5,000-meter-diameter resource point was centered on the top area, and the blazing white light spread out layer by layer, and the bottom area began to shake with a gradually amplified humming sound......

"Really......" looked down blankly, and the heavy patrol girl who was guarding outside murmured: "Rise up ......" (to be continued......
