Of course, this kind of "fine" response does not mean that there is any quality problem with the artificial intelligence guide created by this pioneer, it is just its normal reaction after facing the unexplainable phenomenon in front of it. Like the Autumnwind Dun it had inspected a few minutes earlier, 343 Spark of Guilt scanned the Pegasos and detected both the Restorations (humans who had been added to the Precursor genes) and one of the Precursors' greatest enemies, the "Ancients", the ship's expedition members from other dimensions.

Since his number jù library only contains descriptions of the basic characteristics of ancient humans, and the number jù library was also manipulated by some precursors who tended to humans in ancient times, this AI guide is actually unable to identify whether a race is a genuine precursor or a human through its appearance.

In terms of permission identification, 343 Spark of Sin, like all other control systems in the Ring Belt and even in the Precursor Ruins, directly identified the existing human population in the Halo Plane as the genuine Precursor, and in terms of species, they identified humans as variants of ancient humans.

As for time travelers from other planes like Shen Chao, they have no information and countermeasures at all, because there is no precursor interference, and there is no precursor gene key in the body, so everyone in the expedition team is identified as the ancient enemy of the precursor, "ancient human".

In this way, there is a paradox that the Restorations cannot be both Forerunners and Ancient Humans, and it is impossible for the two rival races to explore the Precursor ruins together. In the general ruins of not having an AI guide, this is not a problem.

After all, as long as the Revert carries the Precursor Gene Key, both the real Precursor and the humans with the Precursor Gene Key can activate most of the systems of those relics. But here. Things are a little more complicated.

343 Spark of Evil is one of the most intelligent artificial agents created by the Forerunners, not only capable of performing its duties for tens of thousands of years, but also able to choose to follow or abandon some of the core protocols in the event of an accident to ensure the proper functioning of the ring and fulfill its guiding duties.

Although the concept that the new humans bound to the Halo World are the forerunners in his core program are the forerunners, this concept is challenged by the comparison of the "ancient humans" of the expedition members. He re-contrasted it. He found that the body structure and even most of the genetic information of the reverted and "ancient humans" in his eyes were completely identical, and the difference was so small that there should be no reproductive disorders. And this is usually the ironclad evidence of a race.

"Unidentified spaceship, you can land on the ring, but be careful to avoid the marked danger zone, this ring is very dangerous!" "After hundreds of difficult rounds of trade-offs and tens of thousands of rounds of deduction in his own intelligence core, 343 Spark of Evil finally decided not to attack or prevent the Pegasos from approaching the ring for the time being, and allowed the other party to land in the ring.

As a Precursor creation, its core function is to help the Reverters (Precursors) rebuild advanced civilizations, albeit from its perspective. Only half of the people on board the Pegasos were Reverters (humans who had been adulterated with Precursor genes), and the rest were potential Precursor enemies.

Theoretically, it should have found a way to eliminate or at least persuade the Regents aboard the Pegasus to leave these Precursor enemies, but, for unknown reasons, 343 Spark of Evil did not directly choose such a radical strategy. On the contrary, after scanning and confirming the presence of "ancient humans" on the ship, it felt a sense of intimacy for no apparent reason.

Although this intimacy is also fleeting. It was quickly suppressed by other subroutines that constrained his behavior, but its effects were already there. 343 Spark of Evil finally decided to release the Returnees and the "hominins" who traveled with them into the Ring for further observation and study.

"Maybe. The two sides had long since ceased and reconciled without his knowledge? After all, 100,000 years have passed since the outside world......" it thought.

"Attention, everyone, we are about to pass through the Ring World, everyone is ready for the shock!" Custer's voice suddenly spread to every corner through the guò ship's broadcast, and Shen Chao and Alice, who had just quarreled in Airport 2, temporarily put aside the topic they were about to start, and sat in the two shuttles waiting for the time to leave.

Sitting on the two shuttles with them were Noble6 and all the members of the two 102 teams. The Pegasus made another short-haul Mass Effect acceleration jump shortly thereafter, jumping directly into a stretch of space about 20,000 kilometers ahead of the ring.

Such a close distance not only allows them to see the huge aura not far away with the naked eye. They were also discovered by the Covenant fleet hundreds of thousands of kilometers away. Although the captured Covenant IFF carried by the Pegasus quickly sent a signal to fool the Covenant's warship for almost 2 minutes.

However, when the Pegasos passed through the Guò Ring, the Pegasos's physical features were still captured by the sensors of the Covenant warship, and they were unable to identify this unfamiliar ship type, nor could they contact them through the Guò Covenant encrypted channel, and the Covenant quickly saw through their disguise. And they thought of the Pegasos as a new UNSC warship that they had never seen.

It's just that at this time, it was too late for the Covenant's fleet to outflank it, and after dropping dozens of shuttles full of expedition members from Harbor 2 at the edge of the ring, the Pegasos broke away from the encirclement that the Covenant was trying to establish in one acceleration.

If the Pegasus is a sprinter, the Covenant's battleship is at best a wheelchair-bound disabled person, and despite its sheer numbers, it is completely unable to surround the Pergasus scurrying around.

And the Pegasus teased the Covenant's fleet for a few minutes and destroyed one of the cruisers, and then immediately walked away in style, without any communication signal during the whole process, so that the beaten Covenant fleet did not know who hit itself in the end.

In the inner layer of the huge miraculous ring, the first team led by Shen Chao quickly separated after entering the atmosphere of the ring, and searched towards their intended target area. Compared to the rings of the outside world, their shuttles are as tiny as dust. Even the Pegasos, which had just left the battlefield, was at best the size of a mosquito.

According to the plot, they need to find several important locations in the ring in order to explore this Precursor relic relatively safely. Especially Shen Chao's team, he has to take the 102 squad to find any group of people in the Master Chief or Captain Case.

On the way to the ruins of the Autumn Wind Dun, Shen Chao's shuttle was quite silent, as a guest, Noble6 had no idea what had just happened in the airport, and he only observed that Shen Chao and Alice should be a couple. As for their dispute, it seemed to Noble6 that it was completely incomprehensible. At this time, like everyone who has seen or heard of HALO for the first time, he looked at the external environment displayed on the screen in a daze.

Although several members of the 102 squad who were in the same shuttle knew some inside information, they also knew that they could not get involved in the personal affairs of the captain. They are also enjoying the rare scenery in the outside world, after all, even the expedition members who witness the miracles of various planes every day rarely have the opportunity to see such a shocking man-made project.

In terms of appearance and size, HALO is not so much a Precursor relic or a simple weapon, but a new celestial body and even a work of art! Since most of the people were busy admiring the scenery outside, there was only deathly silence in the shuttle, which was supposed to be lively with the mission. Only a few gauge prompts rang from time to time.

But even with such a beautiful scenery from the outside world, there are still people in the expedition who have their minds set their minds elsewhere. For example, Alice, who was following as a wingman on another shuttle, didn't have the heart to look at the scenery outside, and when she saw the external communicator on her control panel suddenly ring, she clicked on it, only to have Hargrave's voice appear on the screen with a small call box.

As the chief scientist of the expedition, Hargrave naturally would not be willing to sit in the real room and wait for the samples to arrive, although the ring belt is somewhat dangerous. However, they have access to first-hand samples of Precursor technology, even the original Flood samples that may be present on the ring. They are also going to collect some and send them to the unmanned plane for study.

At this time, he is leading an expedition squadron to the ring belt master control room in the plot. There are also several squads searching for the indexers needed to activate the aura in different areas, and everyone is still looking for their intended target, so it seems to be more laid-back, and there is still time to chat about personal matters.

"I don't need your advice on life. Doctor! Seeing that Hargrave was about to speak, Alice immediately stopped him without hesitation, knowing what Hargrave was going to say. As the only person in the entire expedition who currently knows what happened to her, Hargrave has been persuading her to have a showdown with Shen Chao all this time, but for many reasons. After many rounds of setbacks in the mother plane, she just didn't want to mention the changes in herself now, especially to Shen Chao.

"I don't think so, kid. You should listen to my advice, what do you say about that old Oriental saying? If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you. What happens to you is not just your personal matter, it is a technological advancement that is important. If you don't explain it to him sooner, I'll do it for you, and you know you can't keep it a secret! Even if you don't consider the relationship between you and Shen, just for the sake of health and scientific progress, you need a whole medical team to help you observe the changes in your body! Hargrave was like a doctor trying to persuade a patient to return to the hospital for a follow-up, constantly bringing up the mysterious topic of Alice's physical changes.

"I don't ask you to keep it a secret, as long as you hold on until the end ......of this mission," Alice said with a little fluctuation of love, and the dark energy field around her also moved significantly with her fluctuation, causing the shuttle she was sitting on to shake suddenly. Fortunately, this effect was short-lived, and in just a moment, she was able to control herself and recover her previous state.
