Chapter 855

"Arbiter!?" Qin Ge was stunned, then immediately shook his head, "It seems not an Arbiter, just an image."

"She is definitely not an Arbiter; this is the record mechanism used by this place for entering and playing dossiers." Feilong turned his head and said, "But Commander Qin Ge, you must remember the image used—she is the Dream Weaver, the first Antikthys."

Qin Ge was stunned, never expecting that this place actually hid such a big secret. However, if it weren't for Feilong, I might have thought it was a Siren or an Arbiter.

"Denial, this machine is merely set up here for the record mechanism used to enter and play dossiers." The phantom said emotionlessly, as if to refute Feilong's earlier statement about the Dream Knower and the first Antikthys.

"Indeed quite mechanical; logically speaking, my world has already developed AI, so shouldn't a world as advanced as the Primordial World have an AI system installed in the dossier library?" Qin Ge wondered.

Fanji walked over at this time, smiled at Qin Ge, and said, "Commander Qin Ge, what do you think we are?"

Qin Ge realized, "So sometimes, it's not that the higher the AI level the better; on the contrary, in some confidential places, one must follow the initial program settings."

"That's right." Fanji nodded, "The higher the AI level, the stronger her self-awareness becomes; the underlying logic that binds her will become weaker and weaker."

This clearly does not meet the requirements of confidential facilities; whereas what you see now is a very simple AI, which does not need to evolve, nor to learn, only needs to carry out its set purpose.

"But why, besides us a few, are others unable to move, as if paused?" Qin Ge exclaimed.

"Because it is currently in safe mode." The one who answered Qin Ge's question was not Feilong and the others, but the phantom of the record mechanism in the air.

Qin Ge nodded, "So will she answer some of my questions?"

As long as it's recorded in the dossier, she can answer, but after so much time here, some dossiers have become fragments, so there's very little she can answer. Feilong shook his head and said.

Qin Ge nodded, looking at the projection before him, and asked, "Is there any connection between the Project Ship and Antiks?"

"Yes. The Project Ship drew on Antiks's manufacturing method, but their directions are not the same."

"Really?" Qin Ge pondered for a moment, "Is this the place where the Battle of Long Island occurred?"

"No, this is not Long Island."

Qin Ge frowned, "Then who participated in that battle recorded in the earlier combat command room?"

"There is no such record in this unit."

"Huh?" Qin Ge raised his head in surprise, "Then what exactly is our enemy? Are they the Sirens?"

"There is no such record in this unit."

Qin Ge narrowed his eyes, "Then what was the outcome of this battle?"

"There is no such record in this unit."

"Really..." Qin Ge was somewhat speechless, "Then who is the arbiter in this sea area?"

"There is no such record in this unit."

Qin Ge turned his head to look at Fanji and Shengwang, "Are you sure this recording mechanism isn't broken? She can't even answer such simple questions?"

"Qin Ge Commander, this is the recording mechanism for entering and playing dossiers, not the primordial world's encyclopedia, so she definitely cannot know everything; you need to ask about things that can be recorded in the dossier to get an answer." Shengwang laughed.

Qin Ge was speechless, so he tried asking, "Then where is the withdrawal route from here? Won't it make us return the way we came?"

"There is no withdrawal route here; the battle continues until the light fades."

The recording mechanism's clear and cold voice sounded, Qin Ge somewhat doubtful, "Are you referring to this battle, or the one that happened earlier?"

"The battle that occurred here."

Qin Ge gasped, the battle that occurred here could be happening now or could have happened before, so this answer is very vague.

"It seems we can't get any useful information." Qin Ge turned his head and said.

"This place is originally for querying dossier information; Qin Ge Commander is not from that era, so knowing the dossiers here is limited, being able to ask these questions is already not bad. The most important thing is to let Qin Ge Commander recognize this image." Feilong said.

"Understood, then where is the arbiter currently here? Could it be the sea area we just passed through?" Qin Ge asked.

"More or less, though I haven't smelled any gunpowder, but I can feel a storm approaching." Fanji laughed.

"However, what does it mean that the battle mentioned by the recording mechanism continues until the light disappears?" Qin Ge asked.

"It should be the way the self-protection facility ends? During the time the light persists, there will be continuous enemy attacks, the battle continues until the light scatters, and then these devices will shut down again." Feilong said.

Qin Ge nodded, "Now this is probably the only explanation; then can you tell me what exactly happened in the Battle of Long Island? What exactly is our enemy like?"

"Qin Ge Commander, it's not that we don't want to tell you, but your fleet's strength, although improved, still cannot meet that requirement; even if you knew, it would only add worries, so we'll wait until your fleet reaches that level and can understand everything, then we'll tell you."

Shengwang's words made Qin Ge frown involuntarily; this group's persistence is even stronger than he imagined, but this trip is not without gain—basically many documents have already been stored in his own shipgirl's Jia Zhuang Kong Jian, and they will be taken out later to share with the Northern Union.

As the several people talked, the projection gradually faded, and everything around returned to normal. Looking at Qin Ge's position different from before, the Tiancheng Alliance stepped forward, "My lord, what exactly happened?"

"This place triggered safe mode, so there were some minor incidents; let's talk about it later. Now we've almost recovered the dossiers here, and it's time to leave." Qin Ge said.

"Hmm. This harvest is indeed abundant, far more than our previous gains—thanks a lot to Qin Ge Commander and your fleet's help." Suweiai Bellaluosi laughed.

"No problem, since we've already signed the Cooperation, we are now allies." Qin Ge said, "But leaving might be a bit difficult; there's still a big battle awaiting us ahead."

"The warriors of the Northern Union never fear battle." Suweiai Bellaluosi said firmly.

"Then let's retreat together."

"Yes!"
