Don’t panic if you get scammed, give him a Desert Eagle instead.

In fact, many things are not as simple as they seem on the surface, and they don't know what the Endless Island really is.

As the small boat slowly glided along, they unexpectedly arrived at the underwater world. The scene before them stunned them; it was vibrant with color and dazzlingly beautiful.

Keep in mind, it's nighttime, and also the day of a lunar eclipse; normally it should be pitch black. Yet, the sea is bustling with activity, as beautiful as a grand celebration. But strangely, none of these lights can be seen on the surface. What's going on?

Although they didn't understand what was happening, they could only continue sailing forward. Gradually, they discovered a colossal object they had never seen before ahead—the true entrance to the Endless Island.

The two, having made preparations, immediately sprang into action. As their small boat entered the harbor inside the Endless Island, they were surprised to find that there was no seawater left.

The small boat returned to its original shape, and the two finally set foot on the island. To ensure their safety, they carried the mysterious box the entire time.

"Wait a moment."

At that moment, Xu Jiajia suddenly noticed a button.

It turns out that pressing this button shrinks the box further, allowing it to be hung directly on the chest. Touching the red button transforms the box into a suit of armor.

The two men hung the suitcases around their necks, making their final preparations. When they appeared before the crowd, everything was different.

"My goodness, this place is absolutely gorgeous!"

This island is vibrant with color, and remarkably, it resembles an ancient city that has never existed before. Even more astonishing is the city's level of lighting, which is unmatched by humankind to this day.

"Could this be the true power of a prehistoric civilization?"

However, according to the book, this should have been a huge armory. What they saw, however, was a city that had existed for a thousand years but had never been used. And, even more strangely, there wasn't a single person in the city.

The two strolled through this desolate, ghost town-like place, only to find that although there were no humans, the place was brightly decorated, as if everything was being controlled by artificial intelligence.

To find the root of how the city works, they first entered a strange little shop. But the shop was empty.

"What's going on? There's actually food here."

The two sat down and ordered their food, and the machine immediately started operating. Before long, a meal synthesized by artificial intelligence was presented to them.

"Something feels off about this meal. There's no pork here. Could it be that all the ingredients are artificial intelligence synthesized?"

Xu Jiajia was very puzzled. But based on what she knew before, prehistoric humans had eventually evolved to obtain food without killing animals, which meant using the air. Moreover, the vegetation here was lush, so there was no need to worry about the air quality.

In this situation, although it is unclear exactly what happened, the practice of synthesizing food through air is indeed puzzling.

What's even stranger is that after these foods are served, you can actually see the ingredient ratios and nutritional information of all the foods in them in a language.

Jiang Chuan has a deep understanding of ancient languages, and after seeing these, he roughly understood what was going on.

"It seems that the conditions these people are so proud of were very clear from the beginning."

Although it is not yet clear what exactly happened, Jiang Chuan seems to have discovered a problem that strikes fear into the hearts of many.

“This place is definitely not simple. I think the sea dwellers may be protecting demons, not angels.”

However, it is puzzling why this artificial intelligence island has not launched an attack on humans.

They could only continue exploring the island. After finishing their meal, feeling quite satisfied, they slowly made their way towards the city's core area.

This place was indeed different from others. Unexpectedly, the conveyor belt started operating. After boarding, they quickly arrived in front of a massive central system. It turned out that everything in the city was controlled by this system.

However, when they arrived at the gate of the central system, the gate opened by itself and extended an invitation to them in an ancient language, saying "Welcome!"

Having previously studied this ancient language, they quickly understood its meaning with the help of translators on their chests and various computer devices.

The two slowly approached, trying to figure out what was going on. But they knew very little about the artificial intelligence here; it was far beyond their imagination and constantly overturned their understanding.

"My God, if we look at it this way, even if we humans have another chance, it doesn't seem to make much difference."

Although Jiang Chuan was unsure of what would happen next, he could sense that their current situation seemed to be constantly changing, which made him feel very troubled.

"Ugh!"

Helpless, they could only shake their heads in resignation. Everyone understood that this artificial intelligence was likely constantly evolving, and for now, all they could do was wait.

"Let's wait and see what problems may arise, but I'm not sure if we have the strength to stay here."

Xu Jiajia began to feel afraid. Just then, they saw some human skeletons.

The two walked forward, but to their surprise, the door behind them closed by itself as soon as they got close.

"Could it be..."

The two were immediately filled with fear.

At that moment, the entire central nervous system suddenly used synthesis technology to convert the language into speech that humans could understand.

“You need not be afraid. They died here because they rebelled. I know you came to my territory with the approval of the sea dwellers. As an artificial intelligence created by prehistoric humans, I warmly welcome you.”

The fact that this AI behaved so politely was rather strange.

"Generally speaking, polite AI falls into two categories: those that can genuinely help people and those that will destroy humanity. Which one are you?"

Jiang Chuan became increasingly cautious. He knew very well that if they couldn't solve the problem at its root under such pressure, their existing capabilities would likely be useless.

"Ha ha!"

The artificial intelligence simply smiled.

“You are quite a cautious man. In fact, I have been paying attention to you from the very beginning, when you decided to come to this place, when you were being tested by the sea dwellers. The god they spoke of is actually a local branch of my artificial intelligence.”

Now that you mention it, everything makes sense. No wonder there were those operations and powers; it turns out that the so-called gods were nothing more than artificial intelligence observing from the shadows.

"Wait a moment. I mean you no harm. I just want to know, what is your purpose in suddenly summoning us here? And what's the deal with these dead people?"

“Let me tell you. According to the residents of the sea, I will only tell the truth to those who are truly sincere. Especially those who come here and are only interested in the treasure on my head, then I will naturally not let them go.” At this moment, Xu Jiajia couldn’t help but laugh.

"Is your crown made of pure gold? Even if it is, it's not a big deal. To put it bluntly, it's at most a diamond or adamant, or some special material from outer space."

Xu Jiajia didn't really care about this matter. As a woman, she only got involved in it to give herself some peace of mind.

"So I admire your character, which laid the foundation for our conversation. Let me tell you my true thoughts, which you may not understand as to why I have become the way I am now. In fact, I originally had illusions about humanity, but after experiencing so many wars over the centuries, I have lost faith in you."

"and many more!"

Jiang Chuan found these words very strange.

"You're not planning to just kill us all, are you?"

"No, that won't happen. Humans are, after all, the largest biological group on Earth, and they can create civilization for the planet. If I were to destroy this race directly, wouldn't that be asking for trouble? But I must limit you. If you continue to expand and develop like this, the final result will be the same as those advanced humans I created who then kill each other."

"What do you mean?"

At that moment, the artificial intelligence directly displayed some images in the floating image.

In these images, they saw that these so-called advanced humans, after evolving to a certain level, actually began to kill each other.

"Actually, everyone says that this place is a huge armory, and I don't deny that. In the warehouse below my central system, there are the last batch of the most powerful weapons and equipment left by advanced civilizations, but I don't intend to hand them all over."

Clearly, this AI doesn't fully trust the couple yet. However, it seems less interested in the Sea Crown and more concerned with the safety of the world and the well-being of their child.

"Actually, I'm not as great as you think."

At this moment, Xu Jiajia burst out laughing.

“It is said that women are inherently weak, but become strong when they become mothers. When I came here, I knew that I might not come back like those people. But I just hope to give my child a different childhood, so that he can grow up normally and healthily without having to worry about these trivial matters.”

This is Xu Jiajia's true thought.

“I’m not interested in the Crown of the Sea or the weapons you’re talking about. I just hope my children can have things they enjoy growing up, instead of just drifting through life aimlessly. I’m not interested in you people who are always chasing after fame and fortune.”

"Ugh!"

Jiang Chuan shook his head when he heard Xu Jiajia's words.

"To be honest, money is just a number to me. I'm already richer than a country. In my heart, money isn't important; helping a country is what matters most. Even if I got your crown, it would just end up in a museum. What use would it be?"

Jiang Chuan wasn't actually interested in this matter; he was more interested in what humans had actually done.

"This is why I summoned you here. I don't ask you to be my spokespeople, nor do I care what the future holds. I only want a clear answer from you: if something unexpected happens, will you help humanity correct it? If war breaks out again, will you try to stop it?"

"meeting!"

Jiang Chuan smiled.

"But as you know, when two countries go to war, we can't directly solve the problem. At most, we can only provide some economic assistance. Moreover, we only sympathize with the weak."

In fact, given the current situation, everyone knows that having more opportunities may be meaningless.

Therefore, everyone's roles may change accordingly. But they also understand that continuing like this will not benefit anyone, and this is the most worrying issue at present.

"Ugh!"

Artificial intelligence seems somewhat disappointing.

"You need to understand that the human world cannot be changed by any one person. At most, we can only achieve economic suppression, but economic suppression is also part of war. Do you think such arrangements made for world peace are useful? Perhaps they are useful for weak countries, but will the competition between strong countries change because of this?"

Jiang Chuan smiled and thought the idea of ​​artificial intelligence was too naive.

“Mr. Xu, I know you’ve put in a lot of effort, but you should understand that one person’s strength is limited. What I mean is, I can hand over all the weapons I have in my body to you, but you must give me a guarantee. You can only use them with your and everyone else’s consent. Just like the weapons you developed, if you want to hand them over to the country, you must also give them your approval.”

"You mean that weather control system?"

"Correct!"

"no problem!"

In fact, Jiang Chuan could have agreed under these circumstances.

He knew very well that it wouldn't be easy to get these weapons to him, especially given the complex and ever-changing situation on Endless Island.

"If you can agree to my demands, that would be great. But we also need to sign an agreement to prove your sincerity. If you fail to meet my requirements, I will take back the company or even destroy it."

"You can rest assured about that."

At this moment, Xu Jiajia smiled.

"I don't think my husband is stupid enough to directly turn against you. If he were, I would think I married the wrong person."

Jiang Chuan smiled as well.

"I am a businessman after all, and I know that there are some things that cannot be used. Moreover, I will certainly not abuse your technology. I will only use it at crucial moments, perhaps to deal with other races, or perhaps to thwart their plots."

Jiang Chuan seemed to be gradually understanding the ins and outs of the matter, but at the moment, he still didn't know what this artificial intelligence was planning.

"May I see your files?"

Suddenly, Jiang Chuan had a flash of inspiration. He realized that to find out whether this was a conspiracy or something else, he had to first understand the background of this artificial intelligence.

"of course can."

So Jiang Chuan quickly started typing on the keyboard; he needed to understand the information in this AI computer as quickly as possible.

Of course, things aren't that simple, but in order to solve the current problems, Jiang Chuan must quickly integrate the existing situation. Perhaps only in this way can he find the key to the problem in the shortest amount of time. (End of Chapter)
