Honkai, starting from being approached by Qiyana

Just when everyone on the Hyperion located in the Essence World decided on the next course of action.

On the other side, a certain world bubble in the Quantum Sea.

Li Shubai stood on the bridge of the Huberian and looked out the window. He raised his palms to support the space between his eyebrows, and he didn't know what words to use to describe the powerlessness and lying in his heart.

The bustling city sunken into the night scene is lined with high-rise buildings, several storeys of advertising screens are close to the edge of the towering commercial buildings, and the huge advertising screens are glowing with blue light in the tumbling screen, a very familiar to Li Shubai. The blond-haired man is trying his best to promote a silver-haired idol he is also very familiar with on the screen. The maglev train on the viaduct is speeding through the buildings with the low sound of the wind. Pedestrians and cars are crowded in the busy streets. The street lights on the side, the windows of the high-rise buildings, and the neon lights in front of the shops are full of brilliance.

It was above this bustling and unreal city that the huge Hyperion was floating in the air with its optical camouflage system activated.

After escaping from reality for half a minute, Li Shubai put his hands down from his face, and the emotions in his words were full of mountains of helplessness: "So, why did I follow the Hyperion after the intervention in the future ended? Suddenly appearing in this place together?"

"Because after a long journey, our lovely Brownie wants to go back to the city and the world where she was born, and have a good time with friends and family from the past." A Li Shubai has never heard of A mature female voice answered his words, "You know, although she is a child who can't rest, no matter how energetic she is, there is always a time to rest, so I chose the Sky Room To set the foothold for this period of time, if this is the case—"

"If you don't understand what I want to ask, then I'll say it bluntly. I don't want this answer." Li Shubai turned his face and stared at the man with two heads on his head with calm eyes. A woman with a hollow cabbage, "After returning to the intelligence room of the Hyperion from the future world, not only Alicia who was supposed to follow me lost their traces, even the Hyperion's The location also somehow became this sky city in the bubble of the world, and on the way from the military situation room to the bridge, I didn't even see half a person except you."

"In addition, if I remember correctly, the Hyperion that belongs to me should not be equipped with an artificial intelligence system named Ai Hyperion." He tensed his muscles, calmly and Staring indifferently at this mature woman with a smile on her face, "To sum up, this Hyperion is not the one I own, so, let's go back to the original question—"

"—Why didn't I return to my Hyperion, but appeared in this city with you, besides that, who are you?"

Although, whether it is the main plot world he just interfered with or the intrinsic world, the Hyperion of these two worlds has an autonomous artificial intelligence named Ai Hyperion, but Li Shubai is very clear, The only exception is the Hyperion that he owns.

The reason is also very simple. Even though the appearance looks exactly the same, the Hyperion he owns, which can sail freely in the gap between worlds, is completely different from the destiny in terms of essence and function. The Hyperion that was built was completely different.

"Well, although I want the captain not to be so hostile to me, but with the captain's character, if I don't explain everything in detail, I probably won't be able to fully gain your trust." Mature The blond woman raised her finger and tapped her cheek lightly. She narrowed her eyes slightly, showing a thoughtful look, and then suddenly smiled, "If I have to make a metaphor, the captain and I talked to Qi not long ago. The same thing that Yana kid did?"

"What I did to that child Qiyana..." Li Shubai frowned deeply, "...you might as well explain it clearly."

"You should understand the abilities you have as a captain." Aiyi said with a smile, "When [Captain] and [Valkyrie] both recognize each other, at that moment, she will [ The identity of the crew] is entered into the list of the Hyperion. While enjoying its authority, it will also be forcibly transferred to the reception hall of the Hyperion when entering the list for the first time."

"...So?" After a moment of silence, Li Shubai, who had to admit that the other party was right, asked back.

"As a time traveler who is very familiar with them, subconsciously, you will instinctively identify them as crew members under your own name." Aiyi pointed to the center of Li Shubai's eyebrows, "Your thoughts are equivalent to treating them A special channel to join the Hyperion has been opened. Of course, if it is only determined by you unilaterally, they will not be allowed to join the Hyperion directly, but if the other party also produces [hope to join the Hyperion] Or after thinking like [I hope to get the captain's help]... Even if neither of you has really discussed the matter of boarding the ship, the relationship between the [crew] and the [captain] will be natural Link you to each other."

"...So that's it, so, is this the reason why after I agreed to Weiwei's memory application to enter the ship, her body naturally entered Hyperion?" Li Shubai frowned, "But, you What does it have to do with Qiyana?"

"That's because you didn't know that after you had finished interfering with the future, besides Wei Wei, there were two other Valkyries... Or, Herrscher? They also joined yours unconsciously." Hyperion." Ai Yi spread out her hands, with a mature yet gentle face, showing a rather helpless expression, "For example, that Ai Li who has the dual identities of Yingjie and Herrscher at the same time Miss Shia, another example... Kiana Kaslana, the Herrscher of Burning Flame."

"... Alicia, I can still understand that Qiyana from that world also came to my ship?" Li Shubai frowned, "What about the evidence? Not to mention that my Hyperion already has a ship. Only Yinghuo...a Herrscher of Burning Flames, Kiyana in that world shouldn't have a reason to insist on joining the Hyperion, right?"

"Whether she has a reason to join the Hyperion is not up to you, Captain." Ai smiled and blinked her eyes lightly, "As for the evidence... if I say Will you believe me if you see it with these eyes?"

"See it with your own eyes?" Li Shubai's pupils slightly dilated, "You mean, you've been watching us since I went to that world?"

"It's not that far." Aiyi shook her head, "Strictly speaking, although I, like you, knew, and even experienced most of the things that happened at that time, but in your After stepping into the chess game as a [chess piece], the story changed by you is no longer something I have personally experienced. Except for Miss Kiyana who I saw with my own eyes, whether it is Alicia or It's Wei Wei, I know they will join your ship, it's just a reasonable guess based on what I know about you."

"...Except for Qiyana?" Li Shubai asked, "In other words, did you arrive in that world after we all left?"

Chapter 191 The Secret Love Sauce 4K

"To be precise, the time I arrived in that world was the time point when the captain and Kevin conducted experiments on the power of the end before you were about to leave." Aiyi shook her head with a smile, "Using the ship In a language I can understand—"

"——When Kevin took over part of the power of the end, the stigmata project of that world was also completed. It was located outside the earth...that is, the space outside the atmosphere. A quasi-time crystal with an extremely complex structure has been constructed." Ai stuck out her tongue, her mature and dignified face showed a somewhat playful expression, "Although for people in that world, the outer space of the earth is The coverage of the pseudo-time crystal means that they lost the possibility of leaving the surface by conventional means. However, for a life like me that originally lived in the time crystal, the completion of the stigmata project also allowed me to achieve basic conditions at that point in time.”

"Pseudo-time crystal..." Li Shubai searched in his mind for a while, and after understanding what Ai Yi said, he couldn't help but deeply frowned: "Pure time crystal I've heard of something, it's a concept simulated based on the theory of time symmetry breaking, right? If we say, the pseudo-time crystal constructed by the Stigmata Project is similar..."

Just as the sea of ​​quantum is not a real ocean, and the tree of imaginary numbers is also different from trees in the conventional sense, the concept called time crystal by human beings is of course not a crystal on the material level.

Usually, what humans classify as a crystal is an ordered material structure constructed by repeating lattices or particle grids in a certain order.The so-called time crystal is a theoretical model established according to the material laws of crystals, which can make the behavior that violates the ordinary laws of physics normal.

To give a popular example, as long as it is on the earth, all matter will be constrained by gravity. No matter when, as long as an iron ball is released in the sky, the iron ball will of course fall.

But if it is assumed that humans have successfully constructed a time crystal [the iron ball will fall once every 3 minutes], then in this virtual model, because the development of the situation presents an orderly regularity, [matter is affected by the gravity of the earth] Constraint] this physical law will be broken.

As long as the iron ball is not released at that time node, even if it is loosened, the iron ball will still not fall with gravity. Conversely, even if the iron ball is held tightly at that time node, The iron ball will fall to the ground no matter what.

If it is said that the pseudo-time crystals constructed by the Stigmata Project have similar characteristics——

"...That is to say, when the stigmata project is completely completed... will the time of that world be completely cut off from the external time?" Li Shubai rubbed his chin and muttered to himself, "No wonder... Kevin will be so sure that as long as the stigmata plan is completed, it will never appear again in the end."

Before that, Li Shubai had always been quite strange about the content of the stigmata project, and had doubts to a certain extent.

Although the technology of the pre-civilization era has indeed developed to a terrifying level, from another perspective, such cutting-edge technology in the pre-civilization era has not allowed them to conduct deeper exploration of outer space, nor It is enough to prove that there is actually a considerable degree of partiality in their development route.

Long before the arrival of the Herrscher, the mere atmosphere and gravity could no longer restrain the pace of human exploration into space, and after the defeat of the Second Herrscher in the pre-civilization era, the key to the sky, the Thousand Worlds One, was created by Wei Wei. Come out, the greatest limit of human exploration of space - that insurmountable distance has also been erased.In this case, the humans in the pre-civilization era still did not reach out beyond the planet they lived in, which probably only shows that Kevin's performance is indeed too good.

Although the principle of biological transformation has reached the peak where there is almost no further progress, but also because the level of the aviation industry in the pre-civilization era has not even been able to go beyond the earth-moon system, Li Shubai is completely unable to understand why they have been They all firmly believe that the stigmata plan is a plan that will definitely succeed.

It's just a mere planet, how can it limit the collapse as a cosmic phenomenon?

Even if it is just drinking water, when the limit is exceeded, it will turn into a behavior that can kill human beings; people can walk freely in the drizzle, but they will be swallowed up by the surging tsunami in despair.

No matter how harmless something is, it can easily take human life due to changes in scale.

Therefore, in Li Shubai's understanding, even after the stigmata project is completely completed, all the Honkai energy in the world will be shared among the stigmata awakeners and circulate endlessly, as long as there is no way to really restrain the Honkai itself growth, then no matter what, the human population will still be blown up by the collapse beyond the limit one day.

At that time, maybe there is no need for the end, and human beings will also fall into the situation of self-destruction due to the Houkai energy circulating in the body.

It's hard to imagine that with Kevin's attitude towards Honkai, he would approve of using such means to delay the progress of Honkai, at least as far as Li Shubai is concerned, it's just that this level is hardly called defeating Honkai.

But if it is said that the construction of time crystals is also part of the stigmata project, the conclusion is completely different.

While destroying the laws of physics, the existence of time crystals will make all the developments on the earth enter an unchanging cycle.Although Li Shubai is still unclear whether the Honkai energy, which ignores the basic laws of physics, will destroy the structure of the time crystal itself constructed by the Stigmata Project, but at least when the theoretical model of the time crystal is completely constructed and becomes After realizing the reality, let alone the [outside], at least the Honkai energy from the [inside] would not be able to pose any threat.

But at the same time—also due to the existence of time crystals, the human beings on the surface will completely lose the freedom of action at the material level, and instead of thinking, they will only repeat the same actions at different times of regular operation. Prisoner of action.

"Not exactly, at least at the time when you left that world, the pseudo-time crystal constructed by the Stigmata Project, although it has indeed completely separated the earth from outer space on the physical and spatial levels, but it It doesn’t make the development of events and the laws of physics in the earth show the characteristics of periodic repetition.” Ai Yi blinked her eyes, “Of course, if the stigmata plan is completely completed, maybe the situation in that world will be true. It will become what the captain said it would be."

"..." Li Shubai was silent for a moment, but he didn't feel surprised or flustered. He raised his eyes and casually glanced at Aiyi with a calm expression. Instead, he became concerned about another matter: "You claim to be I am a life born from a time crystal, and said that what I did to me is the same as what I did to Qiyana, so, for you, am I your [past] or [future]? "

"Then, what does the captain hope for?" Ai Yi was leaning her upper body forward slightly towards Li Shubai, her gentle eyes were looking at Li Shubai's face from bottom to top, looking quite charming It means, "The captain is hope. Is it better that I come from [the past]? Or is it better that I come from [the future]?"

"From a utilitarian point of view, of course I hope that you come from [the future]." Li Shubai said lightly, "In this case, no matter whether you are a life born from a time crystal or not, you should have a life beyond the present. The knowledge and information I know can also bring more help than I expected to my next actions."

"But before that, there is another question—" Suddenly, Li Shubai changed his subject, "It's the same as what you said before, if you are really the little cabbage I know, that is, Ai Yi Hyperion, then, like Qiyana, I should also subconsciously grant you permission to join the Hyperion, right?"

"That's right." Aiyi smiled, "In fact, I have already become the captain's Valkyrie? Is there any problem?"

"In this case, why is your name not included in the crew list of my Hyperion?" Li Shubai calmly asked the smiling Aiyi, "As my Valkyrie, you are not on my ship. I can understand that, after all, not all Valkyries like to stay in Huberian all the time, and I have never restricted your freedom——Prime Minister Rita and General Youlan, who need to govern the country and cannot leave; like to take risks But Brownie who only regards the Hyperion as a foothold; and the elves of the forest and the elves of the spring who have always carried out their duties as guardians; there are even..."

In the middle of speaking, Li Shubai suddenly fell silent.

After a long silence, he couldn't help but click his tongue.Suppressing the irritability and irrational anger that suddenly surged up in his heart, Li Shubai spoke extremely fast: "In short, even if I lose my memory... it might be better to say that it is because I have lost my past memory that I will spend time in my free time. I have carefully confirmed all the matters related to the Hyperion more than once in the time, if you think that I just lost my memory and neglected the understanding and cognition of the Hyperion because of this, it is a big mistake gone."

"As expected of the captain, you are as flawless as I expected." Although she was questioned so bluntly, Ai didn't seem to think at all, instead she covered her mouth and said softly. He smiled, "Of course, if you're not such a serious person, you shouldn't be able to become everyone's captain, right?"

"..." Because he wasn't sure about Ai Yi's true intentions, Li Shubai didn't object to or accept her obvious flattery, but just watched her silently with a cautious attitude.

Although she doesn't think that Ai, who claims to be her own Valkyrie, will do anything to hurt him in a short period of time, after all, if she really has this intention, there is no need to spend a lot of time traveling him through time and space After the cut-off, I insisted on bringing it to this world for soaking.But also because Li Shubai really knew very little about her, and due to the limitations of the existing information, it was really impossible for him to simply put all his trust in this guy.

"Before answering your question, didn't you ever think about a question?" Aiyi quietly looked at Li Shubai's cold face, and said softly, "Obviously you have taken back your identity as the captain. Power and authority, you can get the help of the Herrscher of Consciousness at any time, and you even have Yu Duchen as the key to your consciousness, but under such circumstances, why have you been unable to retrieve your past? memory?"

"...That's because when I came to the Essence World, I needed to hide the past, so I deleted the memory of the past myself." After a moment of silence, Li Shubai still answered Aiyi's words.

"Really?" Ai Yi chuckled, "But, can the so-called division of consciousness really be deleted along with the memory? To take a step back, even if the captain really deletes his own memory, with your Some of the powers of Yu Duchen and the Herrscher of Consciousness should be easily recovered, right?"

"..." Li Shubai didn't speak.

In fact, he has been wondering about this issue for a long time.

After experiencing the South China Sea incident, he once thought that he would lose his memory because of the consequences of his past self splitting his consciousness into two parts.After regaining his strength as the captain, although he has not yet sought help from the Herrscher of Knowledge, Li Shubai did try to use Yu Duchen on himself more than once to try to find his past memories, but in the end Not as expected.

——Because when using Yu Duchen to examine his own consciousness, no matter how he looked at it, Li Shubai couldn't find any trace of his memory being erased.

At that time, he simply thought that it might be because the amnestics were so thorough that even Yu Duchen couldn't get them back, but after seeing Wei Wei's deeds, Li Shubai was a little bit dissatisfied with his speculation. Confirmed.

Can amnestics at the conscious level really reach the point where even Yu Duchen can't get it back?

"It seems that it's not that you haven't thought about this question, but that you have tried to find the answer, but you haven't gotten a satisfactory result." Seeing Li Shubai's expression lost in thought, Aiyi's mature and steady expression A kind and gentle smile similar to that of a mother suddenly appeared on his face, "It's okay, after all, the answer to this question does not lie with you, but with me."

"However, before answering your question, I seem to have to gain all your trust first." Aiyi smiled softly, "If you don't mind, why don't you go to Tianqiong City with me? How about... how about a date where you relax your body and mind after a long absence before serious topics and actions?"

Chapter 192 The Intrinsic World, a Mess of Chaos 4k

Intrinsic World, January 2014, 1, at 8:[-] am.

Feeling a little tired, Qiyana's eyes opened slightly, and the winter sun warmly sprinkled on her body through the gap in the curtains.

Putting the previous situation aside, Kiyana would not get up so early. Although with the physiological mechanism of these Valkyries, it wouldn't be a big problem even if they didn't rest for a few days and nights. However, as long as you think of After waking up, she still needs to continue class, and Qiyana's instinct will inevitably make her brain fall into a state similar to fatigue, and she is completely unwilling to wake up.

But last night, after a nearly overnight exercise with Teresa, Qiyana's body is still in a state of excitement until now, although after returning to the dormitory, she narrowed her eyes for a while and barely completed the dormancy process. But until now, Qiyana still feels a little sore all over her body after excessive exercise.

After lying on the bed for about half a minute, when her mind cleared up a bit, Qiyana sat up from the bed without hesitation.

After opening the curtains to let the sunlight from the window into the room, then changed into some loose pajamas, and then put on the school uniform tailored for her by St. Freya not long ago, Kiyana was in the same good mood as always, Pata The bedroom door opened with a bang.

"Everyone! Morning—"

"Okay." Before the words were spoken, after seeing the scene in front of her eyes, Qiyana's voice full of yearning for a better future stopped suddenly, and the smile she just showed was completely frozen. face.

If you want to ask why-

Why... in my dormitory, did I see so many crew members on the Hyperion?

Standing in the corridor on the second floor, Kiyana had a clear view of the crowded scene of the living room on the first floor. Except for the few people who originally lived in this dormitory, there was nothing on the sofa or on the dining table. The seats were full of people, and besides that, Qiyana saw several busy figures in the kitchen with sharp eyes. Judging from the outlines of the figures, there were probably three Ritas and three Raiden Meis.

"Hey, I got up pretty early." The Herrscher of Fire Flame smiled and waved to Qiyana who was standing on the edge of the corridor on the second floor.

"Why stand there motionless?" Teresa raised her head and urged in an elder-like tone, "Hurry up and wash your face and get ready for breakfast."

"..." Qiyana didn't speak, but went to the bathroom silently to wash her face, then walked down the stairs silently, came to Teresa's side and sat down beside her, then lowered her body Voice line, "Auntie... I'm not dreaming, am I?"

Teresa did not answer Kiyana's words, but raised her fingers and squeezed Kiyana's face.

"Ouch!" Kiyana felt aggrieved in pain, "What are you doing?"

"You didn't ask me yourself, are you dreaming?" Teresa glanced at Qiyana with a face full of surprise.

"But..." Kiyana rubbed her face and looked around, "This should be Saint Freya's dormitory, right? Why..."

Halfway through speaking, Qiyana, who looked around the surrounding scene, realized that she was not the only one who was in a state of confusion. Judging from the slightly trembling liquid in the wine glass, this adult woman's mood is obviously not as calm as she appears; the Leiden Mei who just walked out of the kitchen-should be the Leiden Mei of their world, is even more so. Showing a numb expression as if her world view had collapsed, she mechanically put a plate of breakfast on the dining table, and then mechanically returned to the kitchen to get busy again with herself and Rita .

So under their background, Qiyana suddenly felt that she was not so confused, she subconsciously puffed up her chest, and put a confident expression on her face again, as if to say: "What? , Isn’t that what happened! Of course I’m also an insider!”

Although she still doesn't understand why the people on the Hyperion appear in her dormitory, compared to Ji Zi and Raiden Mei, who have never experienced consciousness mapping and have never known Li Shubai's specific identity, at least Qiyana knew all the people who appeared here.

At this moment, the Herrscher of Fire came to sit beside Qiyana, and she patted Qiyana's shoulder, motioning her to bring her ear closer.

Although the species are different, Qiyana, who is also a bug like the firefly, understood the other party's intention very quickly, and put her ear close to the firefly according to the other party's instructions.

"Not long ago, the captain had an accident." The Herrscher of Salinity lowered his voice, "Although the specific reason has not been found out, according to the knowledge of my peers, there is also Youlan in your world. According to the testimony of Dale and the others, it seems that the captain was kidnapped during the time travel?"

"Huh?" Qiyana's brain was a bit overloaded, "An accident happened to Shubai? Was he robbed during time travel?"

"Well, maybe you don't know yet?" The Herrscher of Burning Flame said softly, "Before you woke up, the captain and your world's Ulandal, Herrsrscher of Knowledge, and Ellie Shia carried out a time travel, although the purpose of time travel was achieved, but when they came back together, the captain disappeared inexplicably."
