Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1379: Worthy of being an Observer

"H-Herophent?!"

Lin Lan was stunned at first, then he rubbed his eyes and shouted out the identity of the uninvited guest who inexplicably appeared in his cabin.

That's right, even if he was just looking at the back of the tall woman with long pale hair, he still recognized her identity at a glance.

It was Anticus's original arbitrator, the instigator of the crisis in the kingdom of God on land, Herophant, code-named the Tarot Pope!
"Herophanta? Commander, isn't she the one who controlled Lord Marco Polo before..."

The dragoon holding the gun also gasped after he shouted the name, and instinctively increased the strength of his finger on the trigger.

"Don't rush to attack, she seems to be in a dormant state now."

After his initial surprise, Lin Lan quickly calmed down and signaled the Dragoons, Northwest Wind and Southwest Wind not to fire.

As someone who controls all the power of the Invisible Breath, it stands to reason that he should not be unable to discover Herophant hiding on his cruise ship.

So he almost immediately determined that Helofen was now running out of energy and had turned off all its functions in standby mode.

Only in this way can Helophon be like a "dead object", completely free of any energy fluctuations.

And the facts are just as he said.

Even though he and the three Sardinian little girls were making such a loud noise, Helophon still maintained his prayer posture, not moving at all.

"She really seems to be in hibernation... Dragoon, how did you find her just now?"

Southwest Wind plucked up his courage and cautiously walked into the hall of the commander's cabin first.

After confirming that Helophon had not taken any action, the little Loli breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and looked at the dragoon who had walked into the cabin with him and asked curiously.

"No one has entered the commander's cabin since the last vacation, so there should be dust on the ground."

Although the dragoon explained, he still aimed his gun at Herophant:
"When the explosion-proof door was raised just now, I noticed that the ground was spotlessly clean. Obviously, someone cleaned this place without telling us."

"Well done, Dragoon. You are worthy of being my guard."

Lin Lan nodded in satisfaction and praised the blonde destroyer girl for her attentiveness.

The dragoon blushed when he received his praise, but still did not take it lightly.

Lin Lan brought the three little Sardinian girls to the front of Helophant.

It was not until then that he finally saw the sacred and beautiful face of the original arbitrator up close.

When Helophon first appeared as a false god during the crisis of the Kingdom of God on Land in the game, he remembered that Helophon was covered with strange decorations all over his body.

Like a scepter with scarlet vertical pupils, scarlet eyeballs in the arms, and scarlet veins on the chest.

It can be said that the first impression Herophant gave him was that it was sacred and filled with an indescribable sense of weirdness.

Combined with what happened after he traveled through time, he finally figured out that Helophon had always been the source of the bad omen as another host besides the good man Richard.

The original arbitrator who was kneeling and praying in front of them no longer had those restraining elements on his body.

The source of the bad omen had been eliminated by him personally, so it was obvious that Herophant had also gotten rid of cognitive distortion like the good guy Richard.

This kind of liberation not only liberated the management machine, but also the mental data in the data tower, which was completely liberated from the erosion and control of the bad omen.

But even if he understood this, he still had more confusion in his heart.

"Northwest Wind, when we were in the port area, where did your Sardinian camp hide the cruise ship?"

Hearing his question, the little Lolita who was in tune with him already knew what he wanted to analyze, so she answered him in detail:
"It's in the sealed dock belonging to Sardinia. However, after Lord Veneto decided to go out with everyone to look for you, the cruise ship has been kept in Sister Andrea's ship storage space." It was not until we arrived at the Teaching Country and established a temporary port area that Sister Andrea stored the cruise ship and other exhibits separately in a warehouse.

"Lord Marco Polo and I used the ship's storage space to store the cruise ship until we brought it here. Logically, Antix definitely could not have been stored in the storage space."

When Xibeifeng said this, Lin Lan had already made up his mind.

He smiled and shook his head, then said to Xibeifeng seriously:
"You are wrong. To put it bluntly, Antix is ​​actually a Rubik's Cube artificial intelligence robot.

"Although they cannot be stored in the ship's storage space during normal activities, when they enter dormant mode, especially when they are disconnected from the data tower, Antiks is no different from ordinary cube facilities."

Although the southwest wind beside him didn't know what was going on, he probably understood what he wanted to say:
"As expected of you, Commander! So, did Helophon sneak into our Sardinian temporary port?"

"No, Helophon has never been on a cruise ship, so it's impossible for her to completely avoid the cruise ship's alarm system. Besides, she has no reason to sneak into my cabin."

He touched Southwest Wind's little face lovingly, and continued to look at Helophont, revealing the real reason to the three little Sardinian girls:
“The person who hid Helophen here was actually someone else, and he’s an old acquaintance of ours.

"It's really amazing that they thought of using the storage space special effects of the ship girls to completely seal up the Helophon management machine that was forced into hibernation mode.

"In this way, even if it is the source of the bad omen, it cannot be resurrected and cause trouble through Helophon's management machine, which indirectly protects you in the Teaching Country from being affected by the bad omen.

"As expected of you... an observer."

When they heard him say the name "Observer", the three little Sardinian girls finally showed a look of sudden enlightenment on their faces.

Yes, only an observer who is extremely good at infiltration can completely avoid the alarm systems of their Sardinian camp and the cruise ship and sneak into such a core position!

And the more crucial point is that they had heard from Alfredo and Emmanuel that many abnormal events on the cruise trip were caused by the observer.

Lin Lan remembered clearly that during the cruise trip, the observer disguised himself as the Great White Eagle Detective Essex and worked with him to solve a series of unusual events.

It was not until the end that he determined the true identity of the observer and had a private conversation with the playful and cunning experimental machine loli.

It was also through that lighthearted event that he, who always jumped around the plot, realized that Antiks had special feelings for him.

However, thinking that the observer who always looked shrewd and calculating would definitely not guess that he would win the resurrection match in the Saint Losolon Teaching Country, Lin Lan's lips curled up into a faint smile.

This time the observer has no way to trick him, so he has to give the observer a surprise.

"Then Commander, what should we do now? We can't let Helophon stay here, right? It's too dangerous!"

Southwest Wind, who had finally figured out the cause and effect, asked him with a bitter face. Northwest Wind and the Dragoon also looked up at him, waiting for his arrangements.

"Well, this is indeed a troublesome matter, and it will definitely take some time to awaken Herophant..."

Lin Lan stroked his chin and fell into thought, but when he glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, he quickly made a decision with a smile:

"How about this for now? Marco Polo and the others are still waiting in the big bath. I will sleep in your dormitory tonight.

"Before we set off tomorrow, I will try to find a way to wake Helophon up. Anyway, the source of the bad omen has been destroyed by me, so even if Helophon is awakened, nothing unexpected will happen."

"Great! Then Commander, let's go help you change into a bathrobe!"

The three Sardinian destroyer lolis immediately agreed to his arrangement.

Since the commander said Helophon is not in danger, then there is definitely no danger!

So, amid the joyful cheers of the southwest wind, he was led by the little lolis to the cabin bedroom and began to prepare for a bath in the authentic Sardinian baths that he had been looking forward to for a long time.
