Chapter seven hundred and seventeen

This mechanized voice stunned Gao Wen for a moment.

He is not unfamiliar with this sound at first when he was leaving the satellite. It was the synthesizer that warned and announced the activation of the escape system, and then the system sound that he would hear occasionally when connecting to the satellite. He was already sure that this sound belonged to the satellite in space or the entire space facility group.

He raised his hand, then tentatively touched the big black book again, this time, without any response.

Belltila couldn't hear the voice in Gao Wen's mind, but she could not help but wonder: "What happened?"

"This thing..." Gao Wen concealed his embarrassment, "What is it for?"

Belltila reached out to the big black book and let it fall into his hand, while his other hand flipped over it casually: "It records countless knowledge and can set the bar... Oh?"

The pages of the black-skinned book were flipping themselves under the magic power, but no wonderful images appeared when the pages were turned. On each page, there were red crosses and a line of dazzling red words: "Agent access is disconnected, please check the validity of the authorization."

Gao Wen also saw the words that appeared on the pages of the book, and now he was finally sure: it might seem... that this thing might have been broken by himself.

"How could this be like this..." Belltila also showed a rare expression of shock and even panic, "It has never happened in hundreds of years...it has never..."

"Well... don't worry about its status for now," Gao Wen said in a somewhat stiff tone, "You can tell me what this thing is for first, and let me tell you the origin, and see if I have any clues."

Belltila was stunned and then remembered Gao Wen's identity as an "outer-domain wanderer". Although she kept reminding herself, she would always forget this every time she saw Gao Wen Cecil's face. As a "outer-domain wanderer", she must be knowledgeable, right?

"The Ultimate Book... As I just said, it is an extraordinary object we found in this ancient ruin. It is strictly protected in a complex device, but the device has been damaged as time passes when we discover it. This book contains endless knowledge, and will present the most suitable language as the readers differ. When we first discovered it, it was full of unrecognizable symbols, but after several openings, it began to present content to us in common terms.

"Its first function is to present a variety of knowledge according to the needs of the reader, but it is limited to things that are actually in the world and can be seen, such as the location of a mountain or the length of a river. There is still a detail about this. It can actually present very little knowledge at the beginning, and many of the contents are wrong or omissions, or directly tell the reader that the information is incomplete and needs to be updated. However, over time, the things it can describe begin to increase, as if it has been learning in some way;

"And its second function is even more incredible than the first: after setting specific conditions, it can even deduce the evolution of certain things, such as how high the success rate of a condition-determined experiment is, its accuracy is terrible, and it can even deduce the changes in the situation on the mainland, such as... Ansu's civil war, part of it is deduced..."

As Belltila said, Gao Wen's brows frowned. He had never thought that all things would eventually die and would have such a powerful "artifact". After hearing the part about "deduction", he couldn't help asking: "So, is Cecil's development also in its deduction?"

"...No, this is also a point that puzzles me," Belltila shook his head. "It cannot answer all questions about extraterritorial wanderers, and refuses to deduce all developments centered on extraterritorial wanderers. The prompt is... dangerous access, and authorization is refused."

Gao Wen's mind was already working quickly.

The question about the extraterritorial wanderer is not answered... This is easy to understand, because first of all, the extraterritorial wanderer is not from this world. Secondly, almost all the "information" about the extraterritorial wanderer is compiled by himself and made up by the Eternal Sleeper. No matter how powerful this thing is, it should not be connected to the Eternal Sleeper's mind, but it refuses to deduce the development of things related to the extraterritorial wanderer... This is a bit of a "active" factor.

The first thing he thought of was the sentence he heard when he touched the Ultimate Book: Illegal media login to the system was detected.

There can be two explanations for this sentence: Gao Wen, a time traveler, is an "illegal medium", so he cannot log in to the Ultimate Book, or... The Ultimate Book is an "illegal medium", so he cannot log in to the "satellite spirit" of Gao Wen!

In addition, the deduction function of the Ultimate Book mentioned by Belltila also made Gao Wen unable to help but associate the origin space, the virtual world created by the Eternal Sleeper, or strictly speaking, the "simulation calculation function" based on virtual world technology.

The Ultimate Book was dug up hundreds of years ago when all things died. The spiritual network of the Eternal Sleeper was only completed recently. Therefore, the link to this book is definitely not the spiritual network. So it should be connected to another super system with powerful computing power and can perform simulation calculations...

Of course, it is not ruled out that this deduction ability is the function of the Ultimate Book itself, rather than linking to other superior systems. However, considering the prompt sound when touching this book before and the incomplete information at the beginning of the book, and the characteristics of slowly updating the database as if downloading something in the background in the later stage, Gao Wen could not help but think that this thing is just a second-hand dealer of information, and it was linked from elsewhere.

Belltila saw Gao Wen in deep thought. Although she was full of doubts, she still forced herself to hold back and said nothing. The wriggling vines and slightly trembling roots in the hall exposed her not calmness. Gao Wen also noticed these movements, but forced herself to not care.

He has already thought about the critical stage:

If the Ultimate Book is linking another data source, then this data source is known to include the following features:

There is a large amount of information, mainly about various things on the mainland (the distribution of mineral characteristics of mountains, rivers, animals and plants, etc.), which is suspected to be able to accurately scan the earth;

It should have strong computing power, which can be used to deduce events or conduct simulation experiments;

The information is updated at any time, so the Ultimate Book, which has not been launched for a long time, only took a long time to update and synchronize these information after being suddenly started by the end of the world;

Gao Wen didn't know how many things existed in this world that matched all these characteristics, but he at least knew a group of black technology satellites in the sky...

Although these are all his own speculations, the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. When he finally looked at the Book of Ultimate, his eyes became strange:

Mom, I'm afraid this thing has been secretly hiding from my own website!

I have been a human being for two lifetimes, but I will even encounter the situation of being free online! And the free online book is still a book! How can I reason about this?

Xin knew that those Zenith Star Fleets that had long been running away were unlikely to return to deal with the after-sales issue for this matter. Gao Wen could only curl his lips in his heart and secretly decided to turn around and let Daniel open a few more ports on the Eternal Sleeper's Mind Network...

Belltila waited quietly until now, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Do you... have any clues?"

Gao Wen finally woke up from his thoughts. While agreeing casually, he couldn't help staring at the Ultimate Book again. At this time, he thought of the sound he heard when he came into contact with the book and the situation where the book lost its effect after contact. The truth seemed to be clear at once:

Obviously, a black IP who has been using the Internet for a long time suddenly encountered the physical connection of the security system, and was directly killed by the self-defense mechanism of the genuine system... No wonder it refused to deduce events related to "extraterritorial wanderers", which is obviously a mechanism to avoid danger!

It should be a good thing to get rid of a free online player, but Gao Wen couldn't help but feel a strange feeling of regret:

Although this Ultimate Book is free online, it seems...it can be found more things after it links to the satellite system than its own "satellite spirit"...

This may be because of some mysterious ancient technology, or because he can only link one satellite, while Ultimate Book is linking more data sources, but no matter what, this thing seems to be a very useful tool. At least Gao Wen himself currently has no data deduction and historical data query functions except for mobilizing satellite surveillance lenses...

Gao Wen's expression became so strange that Belltila next to him thought that the "extraterritorial wanderer" in front of him was too rich when facing a book. This may be caused by some unique ethnic characteristics of the "extraterritorial wanderer", but she still couldn't help but speak out again: "Are you..."

"Nothing," Gao Wen finally temporarily shook off the whole lot of thoughts this time. He waved his hand and looked at Belltila with awkward expression. "According to my knowledge, this book should be a 'fake', so..."

"Did you actually see it's a fake?" Gao Wenben just said casually, trying to find a reason for the damage to the Ultimate Book, but he didn't expect that Bell Tira immediately spoke in surprise, "The wanderers outside the domain really have a lot of mysterious knowledge... It's true, it's a fake, this is its description of itself."

Gao Wen concealed his embarrassment and asked curiously: "What is the description of himself? How does it describe it specifically?"

"A fake key is used to pry open the door of truth. This is a fake, but it is also useful if it is appropriate. This is the first sentence that emerges every time the book of Ultimate is started. Of course, even this sentence is gone now."

Gao Wen: "…"

This is the first time he has heard that "free and free" can be described so poetic...

Yes, through this "self-report" in the Ultimate Book, he is even more sure that this thing is free to the Internet.

He shook his head and pulled the topic back to his own pace: "It is precisely because it is a fake, so it is far more fragile than the genuine one. In fact, when you get it, it is already at its limit."

Belltila blinked.

Gao Wen continued: "The dangerous experiments you are conducting here have further accelerated its damage. It refuses to deduce the incident about me, an "outdoor roamer", which is actually a warning. It is telling you that its tolerance is approaching its limit and that some functions have begun to be damaged or limited."

Belltila blinked again.

"So very sorry, it has been completely damaged due to over-limit use and I can't fix it."

Belltila did not blink this time. She just looked at Gao Wen for a while before asking expressionlessly: "Isn't it really broken by you?"

"……no."

Belltila: “…oh.”

Gao Wen pulled a stiff smile from the corner of his mouth and said slowly: "Its damage is regrettable, but as the 'artifact' that all things have always relied on, it may be the best destination to damage after the service is over. You have also said that this thing is useless to you. I will accept it, just treat it as a kind of commemoration."

Belltila's expression seemed a little stiff, but he nodded: "It's yours since just now."

Gao Wen thought about it and asked inadvertently: "Do you care a lot?"

Belltila shook her head: "No...this may be its fate."

...

At the same time, on the surface, the Knight Margarita, who was on standby nervously, suddenly raised his head and looked at the huge canopy of the giant tree in surprise.

There are countless huge leaves with shallow runes on the surface suddenly fall from the branches for some reason. A gust of wind blew, and large beautiful leaves fell to the ground as if dancing. Due to the huge scale of the "Sorin Giant Tree", for a time, the landscape of the fallen leaves can be described as magnificent.

"Why did the leaves suddenly fall?" the female knight muttered to herself in a daze.
