reincarnation npc, but tomorrow's ark

"This is... a xun?" Dr. Kal'tsit obviously knew what it was, but she couldn't help but be slightly stunned when she saw what Bai Ye had given her. "This kind of instrument is no longer used in the Great Yan Dynasty."

The Xun is one of the oldest wind instruments in the Great Yan Dynasty, originating in the primitive society at the beginning of civilization. Now, very few people use this instrument.

Even in the Great Yan Dynasty, not many people would recognize it.

"That's why I didn't mishear." Bai Ye nodded with a smile.

Although Nian's powers were not in music and she wasn't interested in it, as a skilled craftswoman, she still made such a thing for Bai Ye.

Sound waves of a specific frequency have extremely high penetrability, and when used in conjunction with the power, they can be heard from a great distance.

In fact, Bai Ye initially only wanted a device to make a sound that could be used to contact him, but Nian took it upon himself to create a musical instrument that could be buried in the ground and used as an artifact.

Kal'tsit put the things that White Night had given her into her pocket.

Although he's not very reliable most of the time, Bai Ye always gives people a great sense of security when it comes to crucial moments.

This is also why Dr. Kal'tsit was willing to temporarily entrust Rhodes Island to White Night.

-------------------------------------

Bai Ye and the Deep Sea Hunters had to leave, and the person escorting them out of the country was none other than Eline, the disciple of the Grand Inquisitor, whom Bai Ye jokingly called the Little Inquisitor.

For reasons unknown, Dario entrusted this matter solely to Elene—and everyone present could easily crush her throat before her swift sword was even drawn.

In short, Elena, who was nominally escorting everyone out of the country, was actually more like a tour guide accompanying them on their journey.

Fortunately, Bai Ye and the others weren't particularly interested in Iberia, otherwise they would have been wandering around in circles, and Elena wouldn't have seemed to have any way to stop them.

That afternoon, Bai Ye and the others arrived at the evacuation point designated by Rhodes Island, the location of the aircraft that Misery's team had already picked up.

"Huh? There are your aircraft here? This place has been checked!" Elena said in surprise.

Bai Ye tapped the hull of the "Bad Guy" and then looked at the external devices under the propellers. He then smiled and said, "It seems the engineering department has improved my equipment. It consumes much less energy than before."

The optical stealth device he used on this aircraft was preserved and even improved, which is why the aircraft was not discovered by the Inquisition.

It's difficult to detect anything unusual with the naked eye alone.

Afterwards, Bai Ye met Misery, his first time seeing this elite Rhodes Island operator. Bai Ye hadn't spent much time at Rhodes Island in the past; he had met some of the elite operators, but there were many others he had only heard of by name.

Misery is one of them.

According to Huang Da Maomao, this operator is also one of Rhodes Island's top Originium Arts masters, and is very good at destruction. He is a specialist in assault operations, and he can solve obstacles and troublesome fortifications that are enough to stop ordinary operators with a wave of his hand.

At first, Bai Ye had some misunderstandings about this elite operator, associating him with the personality of Huang Da Mao Mao.

However, when I met him in person, I found that he was a very easy person to get along with.

But—these goggles look a bit like those of the Wuju Bladesman...

In short, what Dr. Kal'tsit feared did not happen, and they were able to evacuate smoothly without even Misery having to intervene.

It can be considered a paid leave... Misery is said to be one of the busiest elite operators because of her strong abilities and her use of "space" type Originium Arts, so she is always in the role of a firefighter.

Actually, he was quite happy. He had been startled by Kal'tsit's serious expression and solemn face, thinking that another fierce battle was about to begin, but fortunately nothing happened.

only--

Where is Dr. Kal'tsit?

When Misery saw that Dr. Kal'tsit was not in Team Five, her expression immediately turned grim.

Bai Ye smiled and said, "Dr. Kal'tsit is fine, it was just a small accident."

"It's just that Dr. Kal'tsit will have to spend some time in the Iberian courthouse."

"Clam??"

Misery didn't quite catch on at first.

Then they were utterly shocked. The main leaders of Rhodes Island had been arrested by the Iberian authorities?

This is nothing? A minor accident?

"Don't rush, just don't rush."

This time it was Bai Ye's turn to stop Misery, fearing that this reckless guy would try to break into prison.

“Dr. Kal'tsit went there voluntarily,” Bai Ye said, handing the terminal to Misery. “She will be staying in Iberia for a while. Her authority has been temporarily transferred to me, allowing me to exercise power under the assistance and supervision of Rhodes Island's decision-making body.”

However, Misery didn't pay attention to what Bai Ye was saying; he was just looking at the terminal in front of him.

"I never imagined that I would actually see the day when Order 66 would come into effect."

Misery murmured.

"Order No. 66?" Bai Ye asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Yes, it's an instruction that Dr. Kal'tsit set when Rhodes Island was first established. If one day she is unable to exercise her administrative authority for some reason, then she will temporarily transfer the authority. But we all thought this instruction would not be triggered."

Because everyone is already used to Rhodes Island having older women.

"I just didn't expect her to choose you. Usually it's Amiya or Kroos?"

Misery handed the terminal back to Bai Ye, saying, "Now, it's your turn to give us instructions."

"Let's head back."

Bai Ye scratched his head.

What a surprise.

I had already resigned from my supervisor position and felt like I would be a nobody afterward.

Unexpectedly, he has now become the temporary leader of Rhodes Island.

Really good fortune.

Chapter 42 Captain White Night

White Night and the hunters returned to Rhodes Island.

Instead of returning to the dormitory immediately, Bai Ye went to the bridge of Rhodes Island first.

Obtaining permissions is a complex matter, and it cannot be resolved simply by Kal'tsit saying, "You take over Rhodes Island."

Dr. Kal'tsit gave Bai Ye a key and a special portable terminal.

By inserting the key into Rhodes Island's main control terminal interface, Bai Ye began to acquire the relevant permissions, preparing to officially take over Rhodes Island.

"Privilege level, level 9, Operator White Night, identity change - Rhodes Island Agent."

Unexpectedly, Bai Ye will one day take over Rhodes Island, even if it's only temporary, it's still exciting to think about.

Thus, Bai Ye issued his first instruction after taking over the authority.

"PRTS, from now on when I land on the bridge, please add a greeting message."

"receive."

"Captain on the Bridge"

Right.

Bai Ye stood on the porthole of the bridge, looking outside.

Unexpectedly, he would have the chance to hear that voice again. By a twist of fate, he, who had withdrawn from the "Northern Cross" mission, became the captain of another world.

If it were at the beginning of his transmigration, Bai Ye would probably be very excited now. After all, this is a rare opportunity to control the NPC forces. He needs to eliminate dissidents, plant spies, sideline Amiya, and become the true leader of Rhodes Island.

It's exciting just thinking about it.

But now, he no longer had that thought. After all, Rhodes Island as a whole is just so-so, too small in size.

What's valuable are the operators within Rhodes Island, and its extensive network of relationships and communications around the world.

However, these white nights can now also be borrowed.

Sitting in his chair, Bai Ye began to ponder what he, as the acting captain, needed to do and what he could gain from it.

Asking Bai Ye to selflessly dedicate himself to Rhodes Island? Of course he couldn't do that.

However, having achieved her goal, Bai Ye didn't mind making the place even better. She'd rather let Dr. Kal'tsit see the results of her work when she returned.

At the same time, I can't neglect my own affairs.

Bai Ye cannot be tied down by Rhodes Island; he still has many things to accomplish. Rhodes Island should be an asset to him, not an obstacle or a burden.

First and foremost, it's essential to stabilize Rhodes Island's internal situation. Dr. Kal'tsit is incredibly important; she's like a pillar of strength for Rhodes Island. Usually, no matter how big the problem, as long as Dr. Kal'tsit is still there, things will always get better.

Therefore, it is essential to stabilize the atmosphere within Rhodes Island during Dr. Kal'tsit's absence.

Secondly, internal operations and management must be neither chaotic nor lax.

Third, strengthen security and defense efforts, and be vigilant against enemies taking advantage of Dr. Kal'tsit's absence.

Finally, he had Rhodes Island cooperate with his work—to study the materials and instruments he had plundered from the bishops, as well as the research and development of powers.

At the same time, Bai Ye also needs to take this opportunity to read the top-secret information inside Rhodes Island's database and find something useful for himself.

"Let's have a meeting first. But before that, there's something we need to do..."

Bai Ye took out the terminal: "PRTS, establish a neural link with me."

"Acting Captain Bai Ye, are you sure?"

"of course."

Bai Ye nodded.

"Administrator identity needs to be verified. Please select an identification method." PRTS then transitioned to a mechanical process.

Only administrators can establish a neural connection with PRTS.

Bai Ye reached out and pressed a button on the screen.

"Matching fingerprint found, identity confirmed, initiating neural connection—"

A familiar feeling welled up inside me, a feeling so subtle it was almost negligible, as if my thoughts were beginning to extend and eventually become entangled with something.

Finally, Bai Ye felt that her thoughts could be controlled to flow to a certain place.

Bai Ye couldn't help but shout out a phrase he hadn't uttered since transmigrating: "Linkstar—T!"

Yes, this feeling is similar to the connection I had when playing games in the game pods in the past.

Bai Ye achieved an accomplishment—playing games within games ( )

"Your initial neural connection was surprisingly stable," PRTS praised.

"Preparing to transfer computing power, backup power activated, water cooling system turned on..."

Bai Ye issued a series of commands through neural connections.

Then he closed his eyes, and a sharp blade appeared in his hand.

The wind chime glowed faintly in Bai Ye's hand. At the same time, Bai Ye activated his accelerated thinking and also activated his powers.

Listening to the Wind

White Night's thoughts began to extend, stretching along the ventilation ducts and spreading throughout Rhodes Island.

Soon, Bai Ye's thoughts covered the entire Rhodes Island, and all the sounds, all the people, and all the buildings on it appeared in his mind.

With accelerated thinking activated, Bai Ye could still handle the amount of information from a land-based aircraft carrier, since his mental attributes had exceeded 80 points and could even influence the material dimension.

However, it is still somewhat difficult to completely screen Rhodes Island, but fortunately, PRTS can help.

As a result, countless pieces of information were fed into PRTS's processor.

"Wait... wait! Wait!"

Although PRTS had prepared according to Bai Ye's instructions, she did not expect so much information to flood in at once.

Fortunately, Baiye had prepared a backup power supply in advance, which prevented the water cooling system from crashing.

The reason Luna was able to handle things so easily in the core city was twofold: firstly, it was an intelligent terminal modified by the most advanced artificial intelligence in another world; secondly, it was powered by a "sarcophagus," a mysterious device left behind by a previous civilization.

Even a tiny amount of energy released during dormancy is enough to power a mobile city.

Luna's situation is indeed abnormal; PRTS's current state is not shameful.

After a long pause, PRTS finally recovered: "Acting White Night, you are violating the privacy rights of your operators."

"Help me screen out suspicious individuals who might cause problems," Bai Ye continued. "These are extraordinary times, and we must use extraordinary measures."
