Standing next to the raven is the gray snake.

Obviously, this is the task that the two collaborated to tackle in the previous plot segment.

[They named this project "Childhood", which is appropriate, right? It is not an easy task to give machines the ability to "think" through learning, just like human childhood.]

[Perhaps it was precisely because there was no progress that the project was stopped. If we hadn’t brought it out, it would have been destroyed next month.]

The gray snake spoke in a normal tone. This gray snake, who had a close relationship with the raven, always spoke in such an orderly manner.

From time to time, a few elegant and obscure remarks would pop out, giving people an inexplicable sense of reliability.

[It's not an easy task? How about... you look in the mirror first?]

In the face of the raven's teasing, the gray snake didn't care about it, but asked a very profound question.

[My situation is different after all. However, I really want to ask you one thing. If one day I become a pile of scrap metal, will you treat me so rudely - just like you treat it?]

[How could that be? I should have thrown you directly into the furnace. Take it. I removed the alarm and the safety system. Now it's your job.]

After taking the things, Gray Snake did not start working immediately, but instead chatted with interest.

[Are you still not good at sophisticated hacking operations like before?]

【It’s just division of labor and cooperation. 】

And this sentence translates to, still not good at...

The gray snake could naturally hear it.

He took the ball and placed it on the table in front of him.

[Who would have thought that the little girl who was so eccentric and even quit the organization at one point would now become a cadre of World Snake. ]

[Yeah, I didn’t expect that either.]

Raven responded nonchalantly to the gray snake's teasing.

The next task was actually very important, and even she would feel a little nervous unconsciously.

In comparison, the gray snake looked as nonchalant as ever.

Through such small talk, Raven could feel himself relax a lot.

[A legendary mercenary who climbed to the top of the "Charon List" on his own... Unfortunately, he was a little too eager for success and almost lost his life because of a small failure.]

[If I hadn't shot you in the dark, you would have turned into a piece of "stone" with words carved on it. Or maybe you wouldn't even be a stone.]

"Wow, there's a story like this? I feel really bad for the raven."

"Perhaps this is the risk that mercenaries must go through. After all, it is such a risky profession."

"Come to think of it, Gray Snake actually saved people? Unbelievable, they seem to be just mass-produced robots, right? Or should I say, androids? But no matter what, this will to save people... makes me curious."

As the old story of Gray Snake and Raven was revealed, comments from the audience suddenly floated across the live broadcast room.

It was clear that everyone had some interest in the unspoken past of Raven and Gray Snake.

Of course, the person who is most interested in this matter is Raven himself.

[I have always been curious, why did you save me at that time?]

[Why? I forgot. Maybe I could have saved him if I wanted to.]

Facing the raven's question, the gray snake answered casually.

It doesn't sound like the truth at all.

Naturally, Raven could also hear that the other party was trying to fool him.

[I have thought more than once that if it was any other Gray Snake who was monitoring me at the beginning, I would not have the chance to stand here today.]

Although the tone was not nice, to be honest, Raven was still quite grateful to the other party.

At the same time, I am also very curious about why this gray snake is so different.

[He would have watched me die that night. The reason was that I was careless and failed the test, or... he just didn't care.]

【This is not surprising.】

Faced with Raven's questioning, Gray Snake finally chose to fool him.

[After all, although we are all "Gray Snakes", we also have different... hobbies? Wishes? You know what I mean, some small "differences".]

[I have also seen something even more special: a Gray Snake who loves poetry and lives like a poet who has accomplished nothing; a Gray Snake who is obsessed with guns and named his pistol "Bobcat."]

As if he had been given something to talk about, the gray snake also began to share interesting gossip about his own kind.

[There is another person...who is particularly sensitive to the market economy. If he were still alive, he would probably become an entrepreneur.]

It is not difficult to see from Gray Snake’s speech that although their thinking is a collective, each individual still has infinite possibilities.

Although the directions of development are varied, it is very much like a living person.

[Maybe this is the result that the creator of "Gray Snake" would like to see? But I haven't met that doctor, so I don't know.]

【Then I guess you must be a "talk show host." 】

[It would be a good idea to go on stage with an umbrella and a bag, and tell some jokes to make people laugh. If you take off the mask at the end and find a handsome face inside - that would be even more interesting.]

I have to say that this gray snake does have a very good mentality.

It can even be said that he does have a good sense of humor.

The originally gloomy and depressing atmosphere became much more lively under his influence.

However, with a voice saying, […Okay, all preparations are complete.], what was supposed to come finally came.

[Next, I will cut off all connections between this basement and the outside world. Of course, this also includes my "Gray Snake Network."]

Gray Snake spoke out his story.

Raven then said that he would also install a signal blocker just in case.

[In this way, we are completely isolated from the outside world. If you have anything else to say, say it now.]

[......So, what is your "wish"?]

At this point, Raven's tone was no longer as sharp as it had been at first.

One can even hear emotions of regret and sadness from it.

Obviously, the two people's mission will not be completed successfully.

【…Let’s just forget it. 】

After saying that, Gray Snake turned off the lights in the basement, leaving only his eyes glowing faintly.

[Then, our "mission"...will truly begin. ]

As soon as the words were spoken, the main perspective of the plot shifted again.

And this time, the screen went dark.

Familiar footsteps were heard.

That was Eden walking in darkness.

She was here again, in this deep place. The last time she had been here, Kevin hadn't disappeared yet, and Ellie was still laughing.

However, as he walked, Eden suddenly stopped.

Perhaps it was the darkness that made her think of something bad.

So she reached out her hand to dispel the darkness, just as she had done last time.

And along with the appearance of light, a golden butterfly appeared on the screen.

[Hmm? Weird...]

But this time, the darkness in the deepest places seemed to have a deeper weight.

[What's going on... Is the "Deepest Place" rejecting me?]

【What happened in Aponia?】

[This place won't change for no reason... Could it be...?]

Because the situation was urgent, Eden just ran this time.

However, as she ran in this deep darkness, she arrived at the magnificent realm where Aponia was almost in an instant.

【Confess your sins, invader.】

As Aponia's voice sounded, this time she was waiting for the trial-taker in the middle of the platform as usual.

Only this time, the person visiting here is her good friend Eden.

[I already know your sins...]

【Aponia? 】

Eden felt surprised when he heard these words he had never heard before.

[No need to hide, this is useless. ]

While Eden was stunned, Aponia had already started attacking.

Faced with the fact that his friends suddenly turned against him, Eden had no choice but to start dodging.

【Repent, this is your last chance. 】

As Aponia launched her attack, Eden began to approach Aponia cautiously.

At the same time, she began to speculate about the authenticity of the Abonya in front of her.

[This feeling...is not her.]

"Eh? Not Aponia? Could it be that Aponia has also been killed?"

"How is it possible that Aponya would..."

"What are you thinking? That woman won't die so easily. I guess... this is just a misunderstanding."

"Aponya... Humph! You have come to this day..."

As the good friends Aponia and Eden began to fight each other, the heroes in the live broadcast room sent out various comments.

Some felt it was incredible, some couldn't believe it at all, and some even exclaimed it was so exciting.

As the battle progressed, Eden, holding two guns, quickly defeated the first stage of Aponia.

[......Eden? ]

And as the battle ended, Aponia finally recognized Eden.

【Is that you? Eden.】

She walked slowly towards Eden, completely losing the hostility she had shown earlier.

Apparently, this was indeed... just a misunderstanding.

As for the reason for the misunderstanding, it is a bit strange.

[Ah... Could it be that I affected you during the "touch"?]

[It seems that the battle just now was just some side effects. ]

Although it is not clear what Aponya means by "touch".

But everyone could barely guess that the misunderstanding was caused by what Abonya was preparing to do or what she was doing.

[Please don't misunderstand, Eden. I am not "touching" you, or anyone else, but the entire paradise.]

[I should have noticed your presence, but... the complicated memories of Paradise have drained my energy. Please forgive my mistake.]

As he said this, Aponya closed his eyes sincerely, looking very apologetic.

Eden naturally wouldn't blame her for this, and compared to these...she was more concerned about other things now.

[It's alright, my friend. Instead of that, tell me about your discovery.]

Chapter 399 Ai Lixia: What a bunch of people who say one thing and mean another~ The heroes:?

After hearing Eden's question, Aponia was silent for a moment, and then chose to tell her best friend about her discovery.

Simply put, after her identification, the whereabouts of Alicia and Kevin have completely disappeared from the paradise.
