I really only stop

After hiding for a while with the pink and gold duo, confirming that there was no dispute between Yuxia and the three of them because of the "compatibility test" just now, and still leisurely sightseeing in the living area together, Lu Xi finally got out of the house. He struggled out from the shadow of the Shura field, and before he could look for it, Nova automatically appeared in front of his eyes.

After taking a sip of the milk tea specially made for him by the AI ​​girl, Lu Xi put on a serious face dedicated to business:

"Nova, now that I have obtained the authority of the commander, can you tell me the real reason why Osiris has been hidden for thousands of years?"

——Yes, although the process is very unscrupulous, exploring the sudden sky city and the secrets behind it is the reason for Lu Xi and others to enter here.

In the long time of ten thousand years, where did Osiris float, what happened to it, and where did the residents living in it go... These are all things that Lu Xi needs to figure out—of course, to satisfy his curiosity It is also one of the reasons for his action.

"Command received, data is being retrieved."

Nova didn't hesitate. After listening to Lu Xi's question, a stream of data like a waterfall immediately refreshed around her.Thanks to her amazing computing power, tens of thousands of years of history were browsed in just a few minutes.Finally, Nova looked up:

"[DATA EXPUNGED]."

"……what?"

Full of hope that he could hear a magnificent story, seeing the scene where the AI ​​girl only spit out these four words, Lu Xi almost spit out the milk tea from his mouth:

"Why is the data still deleted? Haven't I already obtained the highest authority?"

This time, Nova didn't answer Lu Xi's question right away.She opened her hands gently, and a large blue and white projection circle was fully unfolded on the coffee table in front of Lu Xi, which seemed to be a bird's-eye view of Osiris.

It was extremely prosperous as it is now, and the transmission towers around the city lit up from time to time, and the supply of goods from all over the world continued to flow into this great city in the sky.The only difference is that compared to the still but lifeless lonely scene now, Osiris in the picture is crowded with people. If you zoom in on the picture, you can even see the friendly communication of intelligent creatures from different races.

"This is [No. 1 Sky City Osiris] thousands of years ago. As the capital of the floating empire, it had a very high status in the world at this time—until the calamity day came, the city named [DATA EXPUNGED] A catastrophe struck Osiris."

Before Lu Xi could take a closer look, a wave of red swept from all around to the center of Sky City, staining the screen with disturbing blood.Nova's explanation sounded at the right time:

"Most of the documents in the central database have been emptied by the highest-level command [Operation Code: Addition], and the control center of Osiris is actually only an empty shell. In order to ensure the vitality, the whole city entered the ultra-low power according to the deep emergency protocol. Hibernation mode, which lasted for 5000 years."

As Nova narrated, the blood color gradually faded from the screen, replaced by a lifeless light gray.Under Lu Xi's watchful eyes, the originally prosperous city in the sky quickly decayed and collapsed.First, the uncontrolled growth of plants as landscapes, and then the irreversible corrosion of metal products... At the end, the high energy source stored in the energy pool caused a huge explosion due to long-term lack of maintenance.Sky City has been completely destroyed so far, leaving only a piece of ruins.

The vitality has been cut off, but under the waste soil, there are hidden seeds of hope.

"About 5000 years ago, during a routine self-inspection, the intelligent module of the center successfully restarted, and it was detected that Sky City was close to being damaged. According to the relevant agreement, the center began to repair and manage Osiris. In order to facilitate the commander's return Looking at the information, the center named this repair plan: [Operation Code: Restart]”

Corresponding to Nova's narration, a few flickering light spots faintly appeared in the ashen picture. They seemed to wander aimlessly on a piece of wasteland, but if you observe carefully, you will find that there are gradually some Basic facilities were gradually restored by them.

Original parts factory, energy station, transmission base station... Thanks to the non-stop efforts of Xiaoguangdian.One by one, the infrastructure was gradually lit up—then, Sky City, which was just a piece of wasteland, was restored to its former glory at an explosive speed.

"Basic supply system, online. Transportation management system, online. Life support facilities, online."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but at this point, even Nova's plain voice has a bit of joy:

"300 years ago, with the last sugar cube processing system brought online, this massive and unprecedented restoration was finally completed. [Operation Codename: Restart] was abandoned. Osiris re-started from the state of [DATA EXPUNGED] , soaring high in the sky looking for indications from ground beacons."

"——Then yesterday, due to an accident, we activated Osiris's ground beacon, and the Sky City followed suit."

Lu Xi silently took a sip of the milk tea that should have been cold but was warmed by Nova, Lu Xi couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.

Before, I was still wondering why the people living in Osiris disappeared collectively, even though the facilities in Osiris were complete and everything was fine, turning it into a "ghost city" floating in the sky.Until now, I have found the answer -

It's not "everything is fine" at all. Everything we saw when we entered the city was reconstructed bit by bit by Nova alone in the long time of nearly 5000 years!

……unimaginable.Even if the other party is just an alchemy life who may not even have the concept of "loneliness", Nova's actions are enough to make anyone feel respected.

only……

"[Disaster Day]?"

Muttering and repeating what Nova just said, Lu Xi frowned tightly:

"Can you describe what kind of disaster it is? And what is the content of [Operation Code Addition]? Even if Osiris suffered a devastating blow, the decision makers at that time would not take the initiative to destroy the knowledge they had. , Leave a mess that will take a thousand years to clean up, right?"

As an alchemy civilization with extremely high technology, no one should be more aware of the importance of knowledge for development than the decision-makers of Osiris.Ten thousand years ago, although Osiris was close to crashing, the center named Nova was still intact.Under such circumstances, the other party chose to clear most of the data in the library, which really puzzled Lu Xi.

"Sorry, Commander."

Nova shook her head apologetically: "The information about Calamity Day and [Operation Code Addition] is an extremely encrypted content that can only be read with a first-level authority, and the center has no right to view it. If you want to know the whole picture of the matter, please feel free to I went to the heart of Osiris and activated the Commander Beacon there."

Just as it is impossible for the secretary to know all the secrets of the boss, even if the relevant information is stored in the central database, Nova only has the role of guard.

Nodding slightly to express his understanding, Lu Xi stood up: "Then, let's go."

"that……"

Contrary to his expectations, Nova, who has always been extremely obedient, hesitated slightly when she heard this instruction, a tinge of reddish brilliance appeared on her face, if nothing unexpected, it should be expressing something similar to a human [shy 】Emotions.

AI girls are still shy?

Somewhat surprised by Nova's performance at this time, Lu Xi tilted his head in confusion: "What? Is there any problem?"

"No, just..."

After performing vividly [Rejection and Greeting] for a while, the AI ​​girl finally spoke hesitantly:

"The core area is also called the central area. In other words, it is where my main body is located. And the image of [Nova] in the central area is set to be female, in other words..."

Having said that, the AI ​​girl's face suddenly turned red:

"That is, even if you see the fruit body of the center, is it okay, Commander?"

Lu Ximeng looked down at the system light screen:

Unscrupulous guy, did you spoil the girl? !

Chapter 176 Life Assurance Protocol: ISIS

As the most critical place in Osiris' plan, only Commander Lu Xi and Nova, who is the center itself, can enter the core area.After finding Yuxia and explaining the ins and outs of the matter to her, Lu Xi set off with Nova.

Compared with the trial area, the core area is located deeper.Different from the sci-fi center that Lu Xi imagined before with [huge computer], [wires everywhere], and [full of light screens], the scope of the core area is unexpectedly narrow.In a pure white space, the clear diamond-shaped crystal floating quietly in the center seems to be the only thing that exists here.

Looking curiously at the slightly rotating diamond-shaped crystal in front of him, Lu Xi asked casually:

"Is this the [center]?"

"Yes. Woo--so embarrassing!"

Nova blushed and covered her face:

"Referring to, Commander! Please don't look at Nova's body anymore! Nova has been completely seen!"

"puff!"

If Lu Xi hadn't been baptized by the dishonesty of the fishing system every day, Lu Xi would have almost spit blood.

There is one thing to say, as the alchemy life left by the super ancient civilization, the virtual image of the center [Nova] almost includes all the elements that can be called [beauty] in human aesthetics.Proper body lines, delicate doll-like face, and a melodious voice like a clear spring.

Among other things, if she were to be thrown directly to the earth, Nova would definitely be able to reach the top of the traffic world easily with this super beautiful 3D.

Cute is cute, look at Nova's current appearance...

Looking at the AI ​​girl in front of him strangely, Lu Xi frowned suspiciously:

"Weren't you normal until just now? Why did you become so... [girl] all of a sudden?"

That's right, although Nova's hardware facilities were exactly the same as now when I first met her, her behavior style was completely hardcore AI style.Do what you have to do and answer all questions.Although there are expressions similar to human emotions, they will definitely not show the girlish mood that is not surprising when VTB debuts today.

Could this be the legendary last test?Want to try whether I can stick to my heart under the beauty?

"Sorry, Commander."

Seeing the suspicion in Lu Xi's eyes, Nova instantly put away the lively shyness on her face, and re-showed that perfect smile that couldn't find a single fault:

"Nova's performance just now is an action model calculated based on the Isis agreement. If it has caused you trouble, I am really sorry."

ISIS deal?

Just as Lu Xi was about to ask about the content of the agreement, a light screen popped up automatically on the central body beside him:

[The Isis Agreement: Life, Reproduction, and Prosperity. 】

[It is detected that the population of Osiris is approaching the red line, and the Isis agreement is automatically activated.In the case of passing the test of love compatibility, the center should use all possible methods and resources to encourage citizens to reproduce.This protocol is highly encrypted, and only the commander and the center have the right to read it. 】

...reproduce?

The moment Lu Xi saw this agreement, he immediately understood the reason for Nova's strange behavior.

Whether it's repeated confirmation when Cupid expresses his intention to 'leave Sky City', leaving aside other more useful tests, or insisting on starting this troublesome [Love Compatibility Test]—the whole purpose It is to let Lu Xi and others stay in Osiris, and then reproduce a new generation of population!

etc!If you think about it this way-

After calculating what Lu Xi was thinking, Nova smiled lightly and nodded:

"Yes. Nova's overly emotional performance just now is to stimulate Your Excellency Commander's desire to reproduce. Under the circumstances that the three opposite sexes all have a high degree of matching for you, there is no more suitable male candidate than you—— As the center said before, please work hard to increase the population of Sky City, Commander Officer Your Excellency~"

The overly weird content combined with the AI ​​girl's perfect smile that is not human-like makes the scene in front of you look explosive and terrifying.Faced with this situation, the cowardly Lu Xi immediately turned on the time stop with a shake of his little hand.

It's only now that I see that this AI is an out-and-out coquettish attribute!

Looking at the AI ​​girl suspended in place with lingering fear, Lu Xi let out a long sigh of relief.

Completely treating living humans as numbers, trying to simply increase the population through calculation and reproduction like playing a strategy game-it has to be said that such an idea is very evil AI style.

I just want to be a commander quietly, but you scumbag AI wants to force me to have a baby.jpg

Fortunately, at that time, I happened to start the side mission of applying for the commander, otherwise I would have gone to a very bad stallion ending!

Shaking his head lightly, Lu Xi touched the center around him, and was surprised to find that it could work normally even during time-stop.

However, the AI ​​girl Nova on the side is obviously stopped by time?

Looking up and down at the stagnant Nova, Lu Xi felt relieved after thinking about it.

After all, what we master is the time stop of the ghs system.In the unexplainable comics I saw before, the male protagonist can even take pictures of indescribable scenes with his mobile phone during the time stop, and then untie the time stop to admire the green and green man pointing at the phone angrily and asking to come back with a flushed face I can't be a girl' What's the matter with this photo? ! 'scene.

Although I gave an example that is very bad in various senses, as a normal person with a healthy mental health, we would not do such a wicked thing, but the truth is the same.In this fantasy world, it is the idiot Lika who struggles with science!

Resolutely discarding unnecessary distracting thoughts, facing the huge light screen, Lu Xi thought for a while, and opened the [Weapon] interface first.

Railguns are a man's romance!When I saw the role of the commander's beacon before, I was thinking, the scene of summoning a destructive light cannon from the sky city full of technology is super cool, isn't it!

Directly skipping the dazzling large records on the screen, Lu Xi stretched out his hand, and a huge translucent map appeared in front of his eyes.

Of course, this is not a bird's-eye view of Osiris. Even a commander with a faulty mind will not install a plug-in for his own home on a destructive weapon.

It can be seen from several iconic buildings... This seems to be the scene of Rhine City and its vicinity?

Firmly locked on the location of the Rhine City Guild that he was most familiar with, Lu Xi confirmed his speculation.

You will not admit your mistakes, and it is impossible to admit your mistakes in this life.The mysterious alley where Cupid sneaked away to take me to have a good time last time is next to it, and I can recognize it even if it turns to ashes.

But, in this way...

His eyes moved down slightly, and Lu Xi frowned slightly.

What happened to this red dot marked as [hostile] far away on the outskirts of Rhine City?

Judging from the location, this red dot happened to be directly below Osiris—in other words, it was where Lu Xi's previous manor was located.

The neighborhood has always been peaceful, so why did [hostile] targets appear?

...Forget it, now is not the time to think about it!

Enemies must be destroyed!Only with such a cautious attitude can we successfully survive in this dangerous world!

Pretending to find a reason, in fact Lu Xi, who had already had itchy hands and wanted to try to fire a gun, took a deep breath, simply pressed the big red button next to it, and then unlocked the time stop.

Osiris!fire!

PS: If Lu Xi hadn't thought of applying for the chairmanship—[The Isis Agreement: Life, reproduction, and prosperity. 】

PS2: Hint (→)

Chapter 177 The Battlefield of the Middle-aged Group

"Wow!"

Struggling to bounce another stab of the tentacles away, Faron, who accidentally suffered a dark loss, tightened his legs, and the red dragon Raheem under his crotch breathed out a mouthful of dragon's breath tacitly. The dragon retreated and joined Mephis behind him.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Opening his hands, he threw out a seal that prevented the tentacles from invading, and Mephis's face was no longer as relaxed as before:

"I will temporarily freeze the opponent's actions, take this time to take a break."

"Stop it."

Glancing at his old friend who was soaked in sweat, Faron frowned tightly:
