Chapter 870: The Perfect Actor

Qin Ge Commander, have you ever considered something? That is, the world you are in was clearly a Numbered World, the lowest-level world. Why did it suddenly get upgraded to a Main World–level world? Hai Lun Na looked at Qin Ge and asked, her words full of depth.

Qin Ge rolled his eyes inwardly, why wouldn't he know? Song Qingge had already told me your plans in full detail; if I didn't know, I might really be led astray by you, but now he actually wants to hear what reason the opposite Hai Lun Na will give.

Then Qin Ge feigned doubt and said, "Isn't it because the Arbiter came to this world?"

Hai Lun Na shook her head, "Then why did the Arbiter come to this world?"

"Could it be because of me?" Qin Ge furrowed his brows, "Although in your mouth I am special, able to make shipgirls evolve into warships, but there are also warships in other Main Worlds, right?"

So relatively speaking, I am not that important to the Arbiter? Or to the Sirens, I am not that important either.

"Wrong." Hai Lun Na lifted her head, looked at Qin Ge and smiled, "You are important, you just don't know it."

Qin Ge was speechless inside, I certainly know I'm important, it's troublesome for you to personally draw up the Guardian Plan for me, I'm really sorry.

But on the surface I still have to pretend not to know, "Could you please just tell me once?"

"Qin Ge Commander, Numbered Worlds generally cannot be promoted to Main Worlds, because only Numbered Worlds have so many commanders, while Main Worlds have no commanders.

But because of you, this Numbered World underwent a huge change, becoming the sole Numbered World that has been promoted to a Main World.

"Think about it, if so many commanders appeared in a Main World, what would the result be?" Hai Lun Na said.

"Trouble? Or rather, more possibilities?" Qin Ge wondered.

"No, possibility is possibility, but above possibility one cannot exceed the original rules. Now this world has clearly exceeded the original rules, so the Arbiter will come to this world to cleanse.

"To eliminate this world's uncertainty, that is, to kill all your commanders. This is also why, as soon as they arrived in this world, they took over the Sirens' fleet and launched frenzied attacks on all factions." Hai Lun Na said.

"So why did you come to this world? Do you like this uncertainty? Or is it simply that you are enemies of the Arbiter?" Qin Ge asked.

"Of course not, we came to this world to find the cause of everything. Since this world has undergone such a great change, there must be something unique about it. And perhaps this cause is what we have been seeking." Hai Lun Na said.

"So we found you in this world, and you have not disappointed our expectations. Whether it's about combat decisions, future plans, or accepting new technology, all of it satisfies us.

Therefore we chose to cooperate with you and stay in your port area to observe you up close.

Qin Ge nodded involuntarily; Hai Lun Na's words were indeed true— their purpose in coming to the port area was indeed to observe himself, regardless of the form of cooperation, it was all to test whether he had the capacity to accept.

"What about the other commanders? Don't you care about them?" Qin Ge asked.

"Perhaps to you they are living people with emotional changes, but to us they are merely a string of data derived from the Numbered World." Hai Lun Na's words had no emotion, "As long as the Sirens wish, they can use Laplace's Demon to create countless such worlds."

So we don't have much thought about them, just like a game world suddenly becoming real, but the NPCs inside remain NPCs to us and do not become players.

Qin Ge sucked in a breath of cold air, "No wonder, I was wondering why you Yujin, upon arriving in this world, all gathered here— it turns out in your eyes I am that player."

"Yes, you are a valuable existence, while other people and forces have little value to us. We travel through countless worlds, having experienced who knows how many battles; frankly, we hardly use emotion anymore.

Because our lives consist of battle and endless pursuit, seeking a solution, seeking an unknown past. To you this may seem cold-hearted, but it is the guarantee of our survival to this day.

But you are different, you are a person from another world, in their programs you are so unique, you possess infinite possibilities.

These possibilities are exactly what we lack; in the Primordial World we once had commanders, but those commanders were not true commanders, rather they were more appropriately called teachers.

You are one of a kind; we discovered that by following at your side, we also gained possibilities. This is why Yujin gathers more and more.

Aimless searching cannot end this battle; if this life continues, we will only become more and more empty, when we no longer even acknowledge ourselves, all that remains for us is ruin.

But if you accept us, become one of us, then there will be possibilities beyond everything. We will no longer be lonely, nor lost; we will unite by your side, led by you to rediscover the correct direction.

Qin Ge Commander, this is why we came to your side, and this is why we invite you." Hai Lun Na's voice carried a hint of fervor, making Qin Ge feel his blood boil involuntarily as he listened.

"Although you say that, but am I really that special?" Qin Ge asked.

"You now are like a pearl buried in dust, but as soon as there is an opportunity, you will shake off the surrounding dust and become brilliantly outstanding. Not only in this world, but also on a broader stage. So do not let this world limit your vision; your possibilities are infinite." Hai Lun Na said.

Qin Ge rubbed his nose, "What do I need to pay?"

"So Qin Ge Commander, you agree?" Hai Lun Na smiled.

"You have said all this; if I still disagreed, wouldn't I be letting you down?" Qin Ge said.

"You don't need to give anything; you just need to be yourself, continually explore the unknown, continually grow, until all this ends." Hai Lun Na said.

Huff… Qin Ge sighed inwardly, Hai Lun Na before him truly is a perfect actress; even though he clearly knows why, he still felt moved.

Because of Yujin's strength? Because of what they have endured?

No, perhaps just because they have been striving all along?

"So, welcome to join my fleet, Hai Lun Na!"

"I have finally waited for this moment; I can lend you my power—but you must promise not to hide anything from me."
