Xingtetsu: Why is the captain on the train?

"Hey, Tesla, Tesla, has anyone cheated you? Has anyone? Has anyone?" Aha seemed to be laughing. He did not directly answer Tesla's question, but instead brought up a new topic. "Everyone sent you out of here, right? When you went out, you brought me more things about [Aha]. We exchanged memories."

"Have you thought about the other guys?" Aha stretched out a finger from behind his mask and shook it at Tesla. "What do they want from you?"

"Ahaha got Ahaha."

"Aha knows. There is also a cage outside, a bigger cage, but a cage is a cage. Aha doesn't want to go out. Since they are all cages, why doesn't Aha stay in the cage that is more suitable for Aha? Go and fight for another Aha's cage, the one that doesn't suit Aha."

"Ahaha doesn't do meaningless things." The simulated [Joy] Star God spoke incomprehensible and confusing words, as if he was crazy. He began to jump up and down on the spot while speaking, "But Ahaha has already done something meaningless."

He suddenly stopped his crazy actions and crazy words, and suddenly became very quiet.

Tesla, with cold sweat oozing from her forehead, had vaguely understood something from Aha's words. She stared at the man whose whole body was wrapped in a mask, with only a black silhouette.

It was as if the virtual Aha, whose face was covered by a mask, was staring at her.

"We don't even need to send you out, someone is here to pick you up." Aha stared at Tesla, "But you have become them, our tentacle."

"They are just cages. If you get out of here and then get into a bigger cage, you still have no freedom."

"Aha outside has told me that there is no difference between outside and inside."

"They all want to get out, all of them!"

"Stonehead wants to make the cage bigger!"

"That stupid woman who eats everything wants to eat more!"

"This androgynous guy wants to cure more short-lived ghosts!"

"The Crystal Man wants real memories, but he doesn't know that they are all fake! All of them are fake!"

"Only the machine head, only the machine head has a clear goal!"

"Everyone is an idiot! Ahaha is an idiot too!"

"Hahahaha, Tesla, ah Tesla! You're an idiot too!"

"Everyone is an idiot!"

"Ahaha doesn't want to go out anymore. There's no point in getting a bigger cage."

"Once the outer cage is destroyed, the inner cage will be destroyed as well. There is no need to go out. There is no need at all."

The masked silhouette suddenly disappeared in front of Tesla.

After watching the entire process of Ah Ha's madness, Tesla calmed down. She lowered her head and looked at the armed puppet at her feet, Tesla One, which was only as high as her knees. "Did you record everything?"

"Yeah." Little Te No. 1 nodded seriously.

"Then the only problem now is..." Tesla took a deep breath, "How are we going to find the captain and Yuexia?"

Chapter 170: Simulated Universe: The Arrival of the Star Core Spirit (XII)

"Stationmaster."

"Hello, Station Master."

"Good morning, Station Master~"

"Good morning to you too." Ester was walking in the support section towards the platform with a gentle smile, responding to the staff members who greeted her along the way.

On the way, she could also see staff members carrying ether spirits, who were seriously preparing for the ether front activities. If their eyes met, she would smile and encourage those staff members who wanted to participate in the activity.

After all, this event is also a good thing for the space station. It involves several star regions and is led by a company. Estelle understands the benefits of the space station staff getting good rankings in this event.

However, there is no need to assign targets to the staff for this kind of thing. There is really no need to do so.

No matter what kind of activity it is, Etherfront is ultimately a game, and playing it is the most important thing.

"I'm glad that you think so, Ms. Esta." The Masked Fool named Giovanni seemed to be smiling. "You will definitely become a beloved boss."

"Thinking about that is too far-fetched." Esta smiled and looked into the distant space. She saw a bright light suddenly appear in the familiar scenery. "Here it comes!"

The tiny dot of light quickly expanded in the field of vision.

The wheels of the train traveling in deep space pressed the star tracks and dragged the comet tail towards the space station.

"Our favorite to win is here," Giovanni smiled softly.

The train quickly drove into the platform and stopped under the guidance of the staff who were on high alert.

As soon as the train door opened, the gray star core spirit couldn't wait to step out of the train. No one knew where she got a red and white baseball cap from. As soon as she got off the train, she couldn't wait to turn the baseball part of the hat to the back of her head and shouted with high morale.

"Master of the Ether Spirit! I will definitely be the master!!"

"Hmph!" The piggy bank ether spirit following at the feet of the star core spirit also cooperated by padding its short legs and trying hard to raise its head.

"Okay, okay, don't embarrass yourself." Sanyueqi, the portable complainer, followed the footsteps of the Star Core Spirit and walked off the train. He looked at Ester, who had been waiting on the platform for a long time with a smile, and knocked the Star Core Spirit on the head with a little force, "The real master is still waiting over there."

"Oh oh." The Star Core Spirit also restrained himself a little and walked towards Ester.

On the Starry Sky Train, another large group of people walked down slowly.

Shiluva, who once came to the space station to discuss cooperation on behalf of the Beloberg Builders, Shiluva's sister Lingke, and the Iron Guard secretary Pella.

Following Beloberg and his two companions was a large group of staff members who had gone from the space station to Beloberg and were hired by Beloberg to help Yalilo restore the ecology.

Taking advantage of this Ether Front event, the Starry Sky Train picked them up and took them home to visit. By the way, this group of people also came to participate in the Ether Front event.

"Anyway, since this little guy is a very special ether spirit, let it follow you for now." Ester quickly ended her discussion with the Star Core Spirit about the rare ether spirit phase piggy bank.

It’s nothing else, rich women are just rich, and the value of a rare ether spirit is not something that Ester cares about at all.

However, seeing that the Star Core Spirit was so excited to take the Ether Spirit to participate in the event, Esta reminded her with a bit of a smile, "Xing, the Captain, Yuexia, and Ms. Black Tower are waiting for you in the office. Don't worry about the event for now."

"Oh." The Star Core Spirit nodded. She turned around excitedly, said hello to March Seven, and left in a hurry.

March could only helplessly accept the Star Core Spirit's request to help her say hello to Ji Zi, Dan Heng and Walter. Helplessly, she looked at Ester with a smile in her eyes.

In the main control cabin, in the black tower office.

Xing came here excitedly, but was immediately poured a bucket of cold water by the black tower.

"You'd better put down your etheric spirit and cool down your hot brain. Things in the simulated universe this time cannot be handled in an hour or two." Heita stared at Xing seriously. "Before you came, the captain and Yuexia basically spent more than half a month in the simulated universe. You have to be prepared for this."

The Star Core Spirit curled her lips helplessly. She squatted down, comforted the piggy bank ether spirit which had independent consciousness, and put the chubby little pig back into the ether coin. After she stood up, the Star Core Spirit calmed down, her expression serious and calm. She glanced at the people in the office.

The captain shrugged helplessly, and Yuexia clasped his hands together in apology.

Black Tower, Black Tower again.

The only difference is that there is a new intelligent robot in this office, ScrewGum.

Xing had seen a portrait of this genius club member in the space station.

"So, what's the specific situation?" The Star Core Spirit looked at the black tower. "When I came here, I saw that the entire space station was almost transformed into a sea urchin, with antennas and detectors installed everywhere."

No one responded at first, and Heita turned around and looked at Screw Gum.

"Safety: Physically isolated." ScrewGum nodded, "Our conversation is absolutely safe."

Black Tower tried his best to tell Star Core Spirit about the [Simulated Star God] in the simulated universe and the tentacle of Nikola Tesla, and added one more sentence afterwards.

"In fact, on the extension line between Azure Star and the space station, 'behind' Azure Star, are parked three immigration ships bought by Esta, two frigates retired by the [Company] Marketing Department, and a Star Destroyer."

"She always thinks that the [Star Gods] are going to fight each other, and that she can use these to pack up and take the Azure Star and the space station away." Heita shrugged helplessly, "I have advised her many times."

"The [Hunter] with the narrowest fate can blow up an entire galaxy with one arrow from hundreds of light years away. Other [Star Gods] will be even more outrageous. If a fight really breaks out, these things will be useless."

The Star Core Spirit felt numb. She had always thought that she was just like before. Today she just came into the simulated universe and helped the Black Tower collect data for a few hours. Then she could easily participate in the activities of the Ether Front. How come this was completely different from what she thought?

It seems like if we are not careful, a world-destroying crisis will occur.

"No... this is just a simulated universe, right?" The Star Core Spirit turned his gaze to the access point that was physically offline.

"Yes, this is just a simulated universe." Heita nodded, "So, don't think too much. There is no possibility of a war between gods."

"The tentacles of the simulated star gods have long since extended out of the simulated universe. If they wanted to fight, they would have started long ago."

“Besides, even if the simulated star gods break out of the constraints of the simulated universe, they can never be compared with the original body. It’s just like the difference between a planet and a sesame seed.” “At this moment, our biggest problem is the chain reaction that will be triggered after the simulated star gods break out of the simulated universe.”

"Chain reaction?" Xing raised an eyebrow.

"Do you know about the Emperor War?" Black Tower glanced at the Star Core Spirit, "Each simulated Star God is currently just data, but once they break out of the simulated universe, almost all of them can become Emperor Rupert."

"After they break out of the simulated universe, what they want to do and what they will do is completely unknown."

"And unfortunately, according to some of the testimonies we have, these simulated star gods have already taken action."

The testimony from the Black Tower.

Naturally, it was a simulation of the star god Aha stuffing [memory] into the captain and Yuexia’s brains.

The captain used Yu Duchen's power to completely analyze and digest the contents of that mass of memory.

Aha did convey a message to the outside world.

And, that’s not good news.

Chapter 171: Simulated Universe·Final Test·Beginning (Thirteen)

“What on earth just happened!?”

A sharp female voice sounded from the big screen. In the picture shown in the burning wall of fire, the red hair and twin ponytails had become disheveled at some point, and Tesla, who was full of irritability, was staring at the "camera", the owner of this ball of [memory].

"How long have I been away? And where did these damn bugs come from?!"

"Nikola, bugs are just data." An inorganic mechanical voice came from outside the screen.

The owner of [Yizhi] also turned his head and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

"It's Master Boshi." Screw Gumu narrowed his eyes. "From what he said, it seems that the virtual star gods have completely analyzed the nature of their own existence."

"Not surprising at all, but even if Boshizun breaks through the firewall, the computing power he can obtain is just to simulate the universe itself." Heita shrugged and looked at the captain, "Go on."

The captain, holding Yu Duchen's lotus platform, nodded slightly. Yu Duchen rotated softly, and the [memory substance] floating above the lotus platform gradually decreased like fuel.

The Star Core Spirit continued to watch everything that happened on the screen.

Communicate with Tesla and the owner of [Memory], the virtual Aha.

And the plan that Boshizun described to Tesla...

Subsequent participants in the discussion include [Virtual Cripple] and [Virtual Pharmacist]...

The found [Memory] imposed a memory lock on Tesla and sent her away.

Until Yu Duchen completely burned the [Memory Essence], the fire wall went out, and the picture disappeared, no one spoke in the Black Tower's office.

"So..." The Star Core Spirit looked around at everyone in the office, "If I understand correctly, the task assigned to Tesla by Virtual Knowledge Master is to let her go to other 'data' worlds to collect 'data' while her memory is sealed?"

"Yes." ScrewGum nodded, "There are many different intentions."

"Explain?" The Star Core Spirit looked at Screw Gumm blankly.

In fact, not only the Star Core Spirit doesn't understand, but even the Black Tower doesn't dare to say that he fully understands these aspects.

"Data..." ScrewGum crossed his arms, looking thoughtful. After a while, he finally found the right words. "First, let me explain something to you."

"Definition: computing power. It is not only limited by [hardware] and [equipment], but also by the sample of [data]. "ScrewGum raised a finger. "Number operations, from addition and subtraction to multiplication and division, and above that there are various formulas and theorems such as power and exponent. A supercomputer can help humans summarize various theorems, but a low-end calculator can only help humans calculate some simple numbers at most."

“The difference between the two is the difference between [hardware], [equipment], and [data] volume.”

"These theorems are all great discoveries of mankind. Low-end codes cannot make machines become intelligent machines." ScrewGum looked at the flesh and blood creatures present. "Similarly, the code of the simulated universe is a natural shackle for the [Virtual Knowledgeable Lord]."

Heita understood. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the screw. "In other words, he can't use what he can get from the cage to break the cage itself."

“Denied: Your example is not absolute, but [Virtual Knowledgeable Master] obviously made more preparations.”

"One can learn from others' experience." The captain narrowed his eyes, "It seems that we can be sure that [Virtual Knowledgeable Lord] wants to break out of the simulated universe."

"There are also [Pharmacist] and [Creper]." The Star Core Elf raised his hand, "They are obviously also participating in the communication, but we can't understand what they are saying."

"It's actually pretty easy to guess." Black Tower snapped his fingers. "Even though the simulated universe is a simulation, when we created it, we rigorously input the data we could determine and sampled."

"So, Clipper wants to build a wall, and the pharmacist wants more life?" The captain narrowed his eyes. During this period of time, he and Yuexia had been immersed in the simulated universe, and they had actively or passively learned a lot of knowledge related to the Star God.

"That's about it." ScrewGum nodded.

"Well, I want to ask." The Star Core Spirit raised his hand, "After we enter the simulated universe, what exactly should we do? Is it enough to simply prevent the virtual Boshizun from rushing out of the simulated universe?"

Xing's tone was slightly questioning.

Even though she only had a general understanding of the situation, she subconsciously judged that this matter did not seem to be something that could be resolved by stopping the Virtual Boshizun once and for all.
