Star boss she is beautiful and sassy

Chapter 900. Provocation and Testing? Heimlav! His bottom line, her ceiling!

In that moment, she paused to think, her expression becoming slightly more serious.

Hmm, what name should we choose?

Most importantly, with this guy watching over her, she can't be too perfunctory!
Charlotte pondered to herself, a flood of information passing through her mind.

After a moment, she gradually came to an answer—a more serious and heartfelt answer.

Charlotte's voice was clear and distant, with a hint of languor: "People drift through the world, coming and going alone, born and dying alone. They bear their own joys and sorrows, with no one to take their place. All appearances are illusory, like flowers in a mirror or the moon in water."

Ares's eyes showed a hint of surprise. This was... a Buddhist proverb.

Charlotte turned to look at him, a different kind of light suddenly appearing in her eyes: "In that case, why not ride the wind, part the clouds, and chase the moon's light on the waves!"

Her words exuded confidence and charisma, and her expression was captivating.

Ares looked at her intently, his eyes revealing an unreadable emotion.

Finally, Charlotte made the final decision: "Let's call it 'Chasing the Moon'."

Ares created the "Lingxiao" footwork, and Qin Shaoheng created the "Feilian" footwork.

So she created the "Chasing the Moon" footwork!
This time, Ares did not object.

His expression was calm and composed.

Charlotte and he walked side by side along the coast.

Their shadows were lengthened by the setting sun and then fell onto the sand and rocks on the shore.

The sky was filled with exceptionally intense rosy light, even the darkest shadows seemed to glow faintly, creating a unique and charming scene.

After a long silence, Ares suddenly spoke: "You...are interested in Buddhism?"

Charlotte raised an eyebrow, unsurprised by his question.

He has always been very insightful, let alone when she made it so obvious.

"I wouldn't say I'm interested, but I know a little about it," she replied succinctly as always.

It seemed that every conversation was a subtle test of him.

She was testing his limits, and also testing her limits.

Ares lowered his eyes slightly, his gaze filled with thoughts.

He began softly, “The Federation has a long history of Buddhism, and it is a very profound culture. If you have the chance, you can go to Heimlaf to take a look; perhaps you will like it.”

Once again, he didn't delve into the meaning behind her words, but simply went along with what she said and said a few more words.

Charlotte was somewhat surprised, but also a little curious.

Heimlaf? What kind of place is that? Is it related to Buddhism?
Although she tried her best to learn about the Star Federation, the territory here was too vast.

With various cultures mixed together, she couldn't understand them all.

Now, hearing him mention it, Charlotte became somewhat interested.

In the past, Buddhism, as a religious culture, also had a long history and a wide influence on Earth.

What she just said was merely a superficial application of it.

The purpose was simply to reveal bits and pieces of information and gradually deepen his understanding that she had a secret.

Only by gradually learning about her differences and her suspicious background can one slowly boil the frog in the water.

Each revelation makes it difficult to truly investigate anything, but it gradually makes people get used to it—get used to its slight irrationality, and then get used to not investigating such irrationality.

In the long run, everything will become more rational and will make it easier for her to act in the future.

However, Charlotte did not expect that a test would lead to unexpected information—Buddhist culture also exists in the Star Federation.

She didn't really pay attention to these things after she came here.

Moreover, according to Ares, the Buddhist teachings of the Star Federation share a similar artistic conception with those on Earth.

Once again, Charlotte discovered a culture similar to Earth in the Star Federation. Heimlaf? That seems quite interesting.

Charlotte had no prior knowledge of Buddhist culture in the Star Federation, but she would be happy to take a look if given the opportunity.

After all, a culture similar to Earth's can always offer her some solace.

The two walked and talked, their conversations not very frequent, but there were none of the usual awkward silences.

Ares looked at Charlotte, and he understood her more and more, and realized more and more clearly that she had too many secrets.

Lately, she has been testing him repeatedly.

Ares understood that this was a signal—she was probing whether he was a trustworthy person.

In battle, they would entrust their lives to each other, yet now she had to test them like this—she was indeed cautious.

This is different from the calm and indifferent demeanor she presents on the surface.

Although there is still an element of distrust, this is actually a gradual transition.

At least, she was no longer completely wary of him.

Thinking of this, a subtle emotion flashed in Ares's eyes.

Perhaps there are some things that can be brought up now.

He suddenly looked at her, his thin lips slightly parted: "You have a very high level of artificial intelligence."

It's another affirmative statement.

When he is certain in his heart, he will not beat around the bush and will speak directly and frankly.

However, Charlotte couldn't help but be startled.

She glanced meaningfully to her side and met his gaze.

After the initial surprise, a smile crept onto her lips, seemingly fearless, yet with a hint of provocation.

"What? Can't I have one?" she asked with a slight smile.

In the interstellar age, artificial intelligence will be commonplace.

There is no law that says she, a lawful federal citizen, cannot possess it.

Charlotte stared straight at him, her gaze unwavering.

She knew he was retaliating against her.

Isn't such an abrupt topic a kind of test?

They're unhappy with being tested unilaterally, so they're testing back.

Although he didn't know why he suddenly acted this way or what his deeper purpose was, Charlotte was not afraid at all.

She simply kept a calm mindset and faced the challenge head-on.

Ares watched the confident smile on her lips, his expression remaining calm.

In silence, his gaze focused on her.

“It should have existed back in Ullr.” He spoke again. “On that strange planet, to be able to smoothly perform ‘Airborne’ in water, either you have analytical and calculation abilities far beyond those of ordinary people, or you carry some kind of artificial intelligence.”

Although Ares didn't say it explicitly, Charlotte knew that his words were rather subtle.

What he suspects is not just ordinary artificial intelligence.

Uller, as the mecha sub-venue of the friendly competition between military academies in the North and South, has always been managed by Palton Military Academy. The various data there are not something that outsiders like Charlotte can easily obtain.

However, to perform "stepping into the air" in an environment outside the universe, many other factors need to be considered.

These include, but are not limited to, specific planetary gravity, mecha mass, etc.

In particular, since Charlotte used "airfall" in the waters of the Uller, it is even more necessary to take into account various factors such as water buoyancy, water speed, and water pressure.

To ensure fairness in the competition, Charlotte couldn't obtain this data in advance and could only calculate it on the spot.
