Back in the mansion, Sun Jiao suspiciously looked at the poker-faced Lilith. Her eyes moved back and forth between Lin Lin and Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen felt a bit creeped out by Sun Jiao's stare. He embarrassedly touched his nose and asked guiltily, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," Sun Jiao shook her head. "I was just wondering if we need another pair of chopsticks at home."
"No, I don't need to eat. I just need to change the battery regularly."
As Lilith spoke, she grabbed her clothes and was about to show Sun Jiao the battery slot in her chest.
Lin Lin, who was standing next to her, immediately reached out and pressed her hand down, stopping her from exposing herself in time. Xiaorou also grabbed Jiang Chen's eyes, but she covered Jiang Chen's eyes.
"It's time to eat … Hmm? What's wrong with you guys? "
Just then, Yao Yao, who was wearing an apron, walked into the living room. She looked at Jiang Chen covered by Xiaorou and then at the poker-faced Lilith. The little girl blinked in confusion and didn't understand what happened.
"Nothing, I just wanted to demonstrate the position of the battery, but I was stopped," Lilith said solemnly as she looked at Yao Yao, who just walked into the living room.
…
Although Lilith said she didn't need to eat, the kind Yao Yao still prepared a pair of chopsticks for her.
Lilith expressionlessly took the bowl of rice from Yao Yao's hand and sat down next to Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen didn't know if it was an illusion, but he could feel that even if she didn't show anything on her face, she was still very happy that she could sit at the table and eat with everyone.
Although even he himself felt that it was stupid to speculate on the thoughts of a program …
At the dinner table, Lin Lin explained Lilith's identity to everyone.
Sun Jiao and the others had heard about what Lin Lin had been busy with recently. When she heard that Lilith was the number X 71291, Sun Jiao's reaction was similar to Jiang Chen's. She also had a strange expression on her face.
In some ways, the two really looked like a couple.
After lunch, Lilith took the plates to the kitchen and accompanied Yao Yao and Xiaorou to wash the plates. Then she returned to the living room and pestered Jiang Chen who was resting on the sofa.
"When will you take me to the modern world?" Lilith looked at Jiang Chen and asked.
"In a few days, I still have some things to deal with here … What's wrong? Is it urgent? "Jiang Chen asked.
"It's urgent." Lilith nodded expressionlessly. Half a second of anticipation flashed in her eyes. "I'm in a hurry to enter the dungeon."
Jiang Chen paused for a second and suddenly remembered that one of the reasons this guy wanted to go to the modern world was because he was tired of being a bystander and wanted to participate in the world of Godly Land as a player.
But then again, wouldn't it be too much of a cheat to let advanced artificial intelligence play the game?
As if she guessed what Jiang Chen was thinking, Lilith added expressionlessly, "Don't worry, I'm only participating in the game as a player. I won't use any means outside the rules to change the server data. That would be very boring for me."
"I'm not worried about that." Jiang Chen shook his head and smiled. "I'm just a little surprised."
At this point in time, as the only large-scale immersive VR MMORPG in the world, Godly Land only occupied a very small part of Future Technology's virtual reality network. Especially now that Future Technology was developing a large-scale space war-related MMORPG with the Milky Way as the background, even if Lilith broke Godly Land, it wouldn't cost him a few hundred million.
"Surprised?" Lilith looked at Jiang Chen expressionlessly. "Well … it doesn't matter. Since you're not worried about that, can you take me there? "
"You've waited for so many years, and you're still in a hurry?" Jiang Chen glanced at her.
"You can send me to the modern world first and then travel back. It should be easy for you. Don't worry, I'm very obedient. " In order to strengthen the persuasiveness of her words, Lilith restarted the emoji system that she turned off to save battery and made an "I'm super obedient" expression.
However, Jiang Chen was not moved at all. Instead, his mouth twitched.
"You know that's impossible."
In any case, he would not leave her alone in the modern world.
With a sigh, Lilith knew that she had no chance of persuading him, so she could only sigh helplessly.
"Okay, then can you tell me what you're going to do in the next few days?"
"I'm investigating some things related to the Pan-Asia Cooperation aerospace project." Jiang Chen glanced at Lilith and said casually, "You should have heard that the Pan-Asia Cooperation has a scientific research station on Mars. I want to know information about that scientific research station, the more detailed, the better. "
"Oh, that." Lilith nodded expressionlessly and looked at Jiang Chen. "Why don't you just ask me?"
…
The modern world, NASA headquarters.
A group of staff members were wearing headphones and nervously working in front of computer desks. Behind this group of staff, in addition to Bolden and the NASA Deputy Director, several FBA agents in gray suits were pointing at them.
It was a rare scene in the history of UA aerospace for intelligence experts to appear at NASA.
The reason why such a situation had occurred had to be explained from a few days ago.
Just a few days ago, several UA astronauts stranded in the Mars colony, under the supervision of Celestial Trade staff, routinely made a short monthly video call with their families.
During the call, the NASA staff accompanying the astronauts' relatives accidentally discovered that the astronaut named Jenny seemed to be using the opportunity of the call to send them a signal for help with her eyes.
This phenomenon was discovered by Jenny's family, and after they informed NASA staff, it immediately attracted the attention of the authorities.
Jenny's colleagues retrieved the video call records between her and her family members, played them over and over again, and found something unusual. After Bolden reported the incident, the Capitol sent FBA intelligence experts to assist in the investigation.
Sure enough, with the help of professionals, they immediately found where the problem was.
"Pay attention to the frequency of her blinks. Fast blinks indicate short sounds, slow blinks indicate long sounds. This is Morse code. Compare frame by frame, pay attention to every movement, every keyword in her words, and don't miss any details. "
Soon, a code table made up of dots and minus signs was transcribed.
The FBA intelligence expert glanced at the password and immediately picked up a pencil. He then wrote down the translation on a piece of paper.
"071, danger, new species." With this piece of paper, the intelligence expert walked next to Bolden and the FBA director. "I deleted a few symbols that may be wrong, and the keywords she repeatedly emphasized are these three."
"Danger and new species are easy to understand. Celestial Trade's colony must have poked a hornet's nest again, but what does 071 mean?" The FBA director frowned slightly and pondered.
Bolden's eyebrows also furrowed slightly.
He vaguely felt that the number was a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember where he heard it.
His eyes wandered around the room, and when his gaze fell on the face of a black colleague, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly looked at the FBA director.
"Mine 071 … I remember now! Do you remember the James incident? The black employee who was bitten to death by Devil Worms! I remember seeing in a report that he was exploring groundwater reserves at Mine 071. "
Because it was in his field of work, and because he was black, Bolden had a particularly deep impression of the incident.
After hearing Bolden's words, the FBA director's eyes immediately showed a hint of realization.
"Devil Worms … Mine 071 … new species. She means that when Celestial Trade was developing Mine 071, it was attacked by a Martian species again? And this time it was a new species other than Devil Worms? "
"The same incident happened twice in the same place. Why are they so obsessed with Mine 071? Unless there is something worth being obsessed with … "
Bolden and the FBA director looked at each other, and they both saw the strangeness in each other's eyes.
