Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1288 The Truth of the Judge's Plan (3200 words)
Hearing this, Lin Lan looked at the petite white-haired girl in the aircraft carrier uniform with surprise.

Come to think of it, it seemed that since he came to Natlan, he and the good man Richard met Antix along the way and had no hostility towards them.

Whether it is the explorer who was first picked up by the good man Richard, or Miss D, the Breaker and the Tracker they met later.

Even though the good guy Richard still has some memories of being controlled by the Source of Evil, it is always the Iron Army of Antiks that stops it from invading the experimental world.

In the worldview of this aircraft carrier girl, Antiks has always been her most solid and reliable ally and partner, with no changes from the time in the original world.

So even though the good guy Richard already knew that he and his ship girls had been hostile to Antiks for a long time, he never understood the reason.

"The Judge Project..."

Lin Lan was stared at by the girl's curious eyes, and he kept chewing the word in his mouth.

He looked at Miss D, but she shrugged and said she had nothing to say.

It was obvious that Miss D had been silenced in the underlying agreement, so even if she knew something, she couldn't say it.

So he sighed and could only calm down and think about it himself.

To be honest, he still doesn't know what the plan customized by Dr. Osta, the father of the Siren and the judge, is.

He only knew that this was a plan that Osta had Zero initiate before he died in battle when the original world was on the verge of destruction.

Even though he had recalled through Laplace's demon that he had created the MetaCube himself, he also learned from Miss D about the future direction of the original world.

But he still didn't know how the Council was established in the original world, and what happened before the Council was finally destroyed by X.

Carefully recalling the relevant game plots, he entered the virtual record world with Arthas and others in the game plot, witnessed the battle for the Laplace demon on Samos Island and was invaded by the source of bad omen, and then he came to the meta original world Queen Elizabeth.

At that time, the original world floating fleet composed of the Royal and Iris led by Elizabeth meta and Bearn meta had been surrounded by the real X-League.

Arthas, Mogador and other Iris ship girls who had originally traveled with him to help Miss D hunt whales were also in that floating fleet, and it seemed like they were seeing him for the first time.

There is no doubt that a long time has passed since the timeline of that virtual record world when the Torch Organization that was fighting for the Laplace Demon was eroded by the source of bad omen and collectively metamorphosed.

The original world's council against X was also established at that time.

And it was at that time that he learned from Miss D that X was undoubtedly the real X even in the recorded virtual world.

Likewise, it was at that time that he realized that his power as a commander could awaken the minds of his ship girls and destroy X's immortality.

Thinking over the plot of the game in the City of Glory over and over again, Lin Lan suddenly frowned.

He realized something that he had overlooked at the time.

Logically speaking, all the earliest ship girls born in the original world should have seen him.

Or to be more precise, he was the tactical teacher of the ship girls in the original world at that time.

Even if Elizabeth meta and the accompanying original world royal and Iris ship girls were not familiar with him at that time, they should have seen his appearance.

But in the game, these ship girls from the original world acted as strangers to him as if they were meeting him for the first time, and the Elizabeth meta even wanted Belfa to arrest him on the spot.

If it weren't for the subsequent call from Dr. Ange, explaining his role as an assistant to the original world ship girls surrounded by X, he really wouldn't have been able to take over the command of the fleet smoothly.

From the reputation meta and counterattack meta that came later, he vaguely guessed that the "virtual world" of the Radiant City event was not just a "virtual world".

If he hadn't turned the tide in the "virtual world" and awakened Arthas and Mogador in the original world, and held on until Miss D, Wichita meta, and Kimberly meta came to the rescue...

Then Elizabeth meta, Bearn meta and Arthas of the original world should have died in the encirclement of X and been completely devoured by X.

It was his actions that broke the time paradox, allowing these ship girls who should have been annihilated by the higher dimension to come to the port and accompany him.

"Laplace's demon... a magic cube-like creature that can travel through time...

"Only through me, Laplace's demon can reverse the timeline of the original world being annihilated by the higher dimensions...

"The Torch Organization, which was originally composed of normal shipgirls, has all metamorphosed into embers, and the embers and Anticus have parted ways...

"Anticus created one world after another to test the mind, and Steliancus talked about saving the past, present, and future of mankind...

"Plus, none of the original world's shipgirls born after the Council was established knew me. Dr. Anjie, whose life and death were unknown, asked me to help with the resurrection match. After seeing me, the Judge Project was terminated..."

Combining everything together, Lin Lan finally took a deep breath and roughly guessed what the Judge's plan was.

The Council had not yet been established at that time, and the Category V threat had already begun to wreak havoc in the original world, causing the Oceanic Federation and the Forward Front, whose minds were distorted by meme pollution, to fall into war.

In order to transfer the Laplace Demon from Summers Island and avoid a full-scale fight between the two camps, Dr. Angel sent the Torch Organization to retrieve the Laplace Demon.

However, a black meta storm, the source of bad omen, appeared and almost wiped out all the ship girls of the Torch Organization.

The surviving original world ship girls have become meta because of this.

After that, the Class V threat pollution was no longer concealed, forcing the Ocean Federation and the Forward Front, who did not yet understand what a high-dimensional invasion was, to cooperate and establish a council. But all this was in vain, and the original world eventually met its demise.

Anjie didn't know how, but at the last moment of her life on the Long Island Defense Line, her will was transformed into a higher dimension.

When the Laplace demon was recovered and the world was about to end, Dr. Osta ordered the Judge Plan to Anticus Host Zero to seek higher-dimensional variables at all costs.

This also explains why Zero can condone the existence of Herophant, who is used as a host by Bad Omen, and allow Dibel to cooperate with the Flag Wind meta and the Mercury Memorial meta.

In the eyes of the surviving Ashes meta ship girls, especially the Enterprise meta, what Anticus did was no different from being crazy.

As an artificial intelligence, Antiks was simply unable to disobey the last order given by their creator, so she eventually parted ways with Ember due to differences in ideas and fought each other.

The only person who can stop the Judge's plan is him, who, like Osta and Ange, has the highest administrator authority in Anticus.

No, to be more precise, perhaps when Osta issued the Inquisitor Plan, he added an additional instruction to automatically cancel the plan if Antiks found him.

Because only he, who comes from the Blue Planet, can make Laplace's demon reshape the timeline of the original world that was completely destroyed by X.

Only he can use Laplace's demon to change the many tragic endings destined to happen in the original world.

This was the cause and effect of the Inquisitor's plan that he speculated about, and it also perfectly explained all of Antiks' previous experiments and actions.

Although he had figured out the Judge's plan, his responsibilities as a commander were also completely clear to him.

But he felt no joy in his heart, because he still had one biggest question that was not answered.

That was him from the original world...where did he go after the Category V threat officially invaded?

Why didn't they recognize him after the establishment of the Council in Elizabeth meta?
and many more!

Lin Lan suddenly opened his eyes wide, which scared the good man Richard in front of him.

"Teacher, did you remember something? I don't necessarily need an answer..."

Hearing the timid voice of the good man Richard, Harbin and the other Donghuang and Beilian girls looked over. Even Lang Yuexi and Bai Qixue gave him confused and worried looks.

"Commander, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me during such a big adventure!"

Fushun hurried to his side, looked up at him and asked with concern.

It is a terrifying thing for the Commander to be so startled while traveling in this black meta storm.

"No, nothing. I was just thinking about the Inquisitor Plan that Antix had executed before..."

After taking a deep breath, Lin Lan gave a relaxed smile to the girls around him, and also rubbed the little head of the red-haired guide girl.

After hearing what he said, the ship girls around him who were originally very nervous finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In just a few words, he finished his speculation about Laplace's demon and the Judge's plan. Except for Lang Yuexi and Bai Qixue who looked puzzled, his fellow ship girls were all amazed.

"Breaking the time paradox, wow, comrade Commander, I am increasingly eager to see what the Laplace Demon is!"

As a genius mechanic, his eyes sparkled and he looked eager to try.

Taiyuan also smiled at him gently:
"It's a pity that Sister Haitian is not here. This is also a perfect subject for a science fiction novel."

Good man Richard did not expect that after the destruction of the original world, Dr. Osta would entrust such important responsibilities to her teacher and Antiks.

However, this aircraft carrier girl has finally walked out of the haze of the past. Knowing that she still has the opportunity to change the past with her teacher, her blue eyes are filled with hope.

Miss D smiled and sighed after listening to his speech.

It was as if the lady of death was silently complaining to the host. This was not something I told the assistant, but something he analyzed himself.

But Lin Lan smiled as he watched the ship girls around him discussing the Laplace Monster, but in his heart he was thinking about the incongruity that had shocked him just now.

Apart from the fact that his whereabouts in the original world are unknown, it seems that all traces of his existence have been erased.

He had received communications from Ange twice in the virtual recorded world of that game event, or perhaps it should be said that it was the world created by Laplace's demon who reversed time.

In those two communications, Angel provided him with a lot of valuable information, which provided guidance for his subsequent two processes of breaking the time paradox.

But Anjie, who called him at that time...

Is it Ange from the normal timeline in the virtual recorded world, or Ange who has completed the high-dimensionalization?
Lin Lan thought about it over and over again, but still couldn't get an answer.

But he was too lazy to continue thinking.

Anyway, his mother-in-law still wants him to play in the revival match, so why not just ask Anjie in person when the time comes?
