Chapter 336 Probation Period (Please give me a monthly ticket for the new month)


    “To be honest...I can’t believe it until now...”


    ?Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the planet outside, Eclair murmured to himself.


    “It really feels unreal...”


    "yes……"


    ?Standing next to Eclare, Lumière also nodded.


    After that, Duanmu Huai explained the mission of the Tribunal to the two of them. However, for these two girls, they just felt that everything Duanmu Huai said was fantasy and they could not believe it. After all, there are no aliens in their galaxy, and they have never seen anything like demons. However, Duanmuhuai said that the opponents of the Tribunal are demons, aliens and heretics...


    To be honest, if they were not really in this battleship, both of them would think that this person in front of them is a madman.


    Not only that, the two also learned an even more surprising news from Duanmuhuai - the galaxy they thought was the Milky Way was not the Milky Way at all, but just a grain of sand in the real Milky Way!


    ?This answer made the two of them even more surprised. Lumière even asked, if that''s the case, why they haven''t discovered it.


    For Duanmuhuai, the answer is simple.


    ?Black hole project.


    ??When the black hole project exploded the entire galaxy, the planners naturally considered the resurgence of the Chaos God. So the second step of the black hole plan was to isolate each galaxy in the entire Milky Way, cutting off all these worlds and forming black boxes.


    In this way, the outside cannot observe the inside, and the inside cannot observe the outside. Therefore, for observers, if they do not have considerable knowledge and level, their perception of the outside world is nothing, nothing exists, as if the edge of their galaxy is only here.


    ?This design is, on the one hand, to protect the humans in that galaxy and prevent them from being discovered by the evil **** of chaos. On the other hand, it is also a test of human civilization in that galaxy.


    That''s right, just like humans must first break away from the gravity well and go to the universe.


    ??Then upgrading the space navigation capabilities, crossing one''s footprints from one star system to other star systems, and then starting the great era of space navigation, this series of tests are all tests that humans must overcome. The black box system is also one of them. If the human civilization in this galaxy is not powerful enough to read the information, then they will not be able to detect the existence of another galaxy at the edge of the black box no matter what means they use.


    ??And being unable to pass through the black box means that their civilization is not enough to fight the Chaos Evil God head-on, and if they go out, they will die.


    ?Duanmuhuai had not told anyone else about this information before. The reason was simple - they had no use for it.


    The Holy City and Manalia are still trapped in the gravity well, and the world where Sydney is located has not yet stepped out of its own star system. Telling them this knowledge is like telling primitive people about nuclear fusion. It is useless. They also Not useful.


    In fact, this is the reason why players open up wasteland in the early stages of the game, because all major galaxies are in a black box state, so players have to go and explore the black fog themselves, just like playing real-time strategy, to know whether there are mines or enemies... Of course , Duanmuhuai doesn''t have to worry about this problem, the black box can''t stop the ancient sage black technology, okay.


    The world where Eclair and Lumière live is the first pure interstellar civilization Duanmuhuai has encountered that has almost conquered the entire galaxy. Of course, this is also related to the good luck of this civilization. There are no alien forces in this galaxy, otherwise it would Just like the UNSC, it started fighting with the Covenant after a while.


    ?But unfortunately, the civilization of Galaxy 59 seems to be satisfied with this.


    ??This kind of civilization, once the Chaos Evil God becomes stronger, will basically die tragically in the first wave. Because strictly speaking, this civilization has not encountered any opponents, nor has it been specially tempered - facing foreign enemies like this, it is considered lucky not to be pushed away in a wave.


    To be honest, after listening to Duanmu Huai’s story, the two people’s outlook immediately collapsed. After all, if what Duanmu Huai said is correct, it means that all the human history they have learned is false. To be honest, they really don''t want to believe such a ridiculous truth, and would rather believe that it is some kind of lie.


    For Duanmu Huai, it is very simple to verify. He takes them around the interstellar world. They are all members of the interstellar civilization. He naturally knows how to compare star maps, and then let them see his own Astral Army—— At first, the two of them thought that other Astra Militarum troops were giants wearing power armor just like Duanmu Huai.


    ?Later, Duanmuhuai told them that these were just the souls of heroes who died in the battle possessed by the power armor.


    ?Hmm, of course the two of them didn’t believe it, and Lumière even investigated it personally.


    It turns out that these self-moving and talking power armors have no AI at all, no life fluctuations, and no signs of computer network connection.


    ?Then...there''s nothing we can do.


    As the saying goes, if something looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it is a duck.


    ?Even if they are reluctant in their hearts, they have to admit...this may be the fact.


    ?So after that, they enjoyed the scenery in the guest room and reshaped their outlook on life.


    Although the two of them don''t particularly believe in Duanmu Huai''s words and don''t quite believe in what he said, this does not hinder the cooperation between the two parties - so Duanmu Huai does not force them to believe, but proposes further plans.


    That is the probation period.


    Just like graduates have a probation period when they enter a company, don''t believe it or not. You come and work for two months first, and then you have a look at the atmosphere of our company. We also take a look at your abilities. If you are suitable, we will sign a contract. If you are not suitable, we will sign a contract. It’s not a big deal to just send you guys back after a breakup.


    ?Or if you don’t want to go back to your own galaxy, we can also send you to a war planet or a guardian civilization to start over, isn’t that the same?


    ? Eclair and Lumière discussed it and felt that Duanmu Huai’s proposal was reasonable. After all, they would be hunted down if they went back now. And to be honest, GOTT''s work is really disgusting. As GOTT''s prosecutors, they have seen similar immoral things like bullying civilians more than once. Sometimes they can solve it, sometimes they can''t.


    To be honest, after experiencing too much, they have become a little disappointed with the bad nature of human beings.


    In comparison, Duanmuhuai''s mission here is simpler and clearer. It is to protect human beings and eliminate the existence that threatens human beings. At least there is no need to consider some entangled and impossible things.


    ?So the two decided to follow Duanmu Huai to see what the Tribunal was doing, and then... make plans.


    “Dong dong dong.”


    ?At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside. The two of them turned their heads to look, and then Eclair spoke.


    “Please come in.”


    “I’m sorry.”


    Hearing the response, the door opened, and then Audrey, wearing a maid uniform, walked in.


    “The master is going to hold a combat meeting. Please gather the two of you in the command room.”


    "OK."


    The two of them looked solemn at this moment, followed Audrey out of the room, and walked towards the command room. Of course, they also adjusted their status on the way. In any case, they are now considered as probationary interns, and the other party is also their boss. When participating in an operation for the first time, they must make a good impression.


    Soon, under the leadership of Audrey, the two of them came to the door of the command room. Then the door opened, and then the two of them walked in. Then they stood on their heels, raised their chests, raised their heads, and saluted.


    )


    “…Eclair came to report…?”


    ?It''s no wonder that Eclair''s greeting took a wrong turn in the end. The reason is simple, because Duanmu Huai is standing right in front of the tactical command podium. On his shoulder, a girl was sitting there, raising her right hand and shaking it gently. With her movements, she saw a small human idol spinning around in the air like dancing. On Duanmu Huai''s other shoulder, a girl who looked about the same age as Lumière was jumping up and down happily, trying to catch the doll.


    Like a cat playing on its owner.


    ??Is this a combat meeting? ? ?


    “Oh, you are here.”


    Duanmu Huai raised his head, glanced at the two of them, and then nodded.


    “Come here, we will discuss the battle plan next.”


    "yes………"


    ?The two of them walked to the podium and were a little at a loss. However, the other girls next to them seemed to be used to this and didn''t care at all.


    “Okay, stop playing, Bambi.”


    ?Duanmuhuai patted Bambi, motioned her not to jump around on him, and then turned on the video.


    Soon, scenes of images appeared in front of the girls.


    Cities that have been razed to the ground, people struggling among the ruins and wreckage, and an army of robots that ruthlessly hunt humans... "It''s so miserable..."


    Seeing this scene, although Eclair had heard about it before, the feeling of seeing it with his own eyes was completely different. At this moment, she also clenched her fists and stared at the screen. Duanmu Huai glanced at her and then looked at the others.


    “Okay, this is the current situation on this planet, but the information we have received is incomplete…”


    “Shouldn’t we act immediately?”


    Lorena also asked hurriedly, while Duanmuhuai shook his head.


    "There is no rush, the enemy we have to deal with this time is much more difficult than before...Lumi El."


    "exist."


    Hearing Duanmuhuai call her name, Lumière quickly straightened up.


    “I remember you said that your ability can control electronic machinery and networks?”


    "Yes."


    As the "interview part", Duanmuhuai also learned about their abilities from the two of them. According to Lumière, they are not human beings, but biochemically modified people. To put it simply, some kind of technology from that world injected nanomachines into their bodies, and then gave them different abilities - you can almost call them superpowers.


    ? Among them, Eclare''s ability is "strength", which is simply called strange strength. Duanmu Huai also tried it. It is true that Eclare''s strength is very powerful, and it has basically reached the same level as the Astra Militarum with bare hands.


    ?Lumi Air’s abilities are “puppet” and “particle”. According to Lumi Er, she can control any electronic product and charged particles as long as she can get close to the target.


    I have to say that this ability is very strong, but it depends on how to use it...


    "Next, I need you to go to the low-Earth orbit satellite of that planet, and use it to collect as much information about the planet as possible, including what happened to the planet before to become like this, and who are the robots that kill humans. What is it, and I ask you not to be noticed by them, is there a problem? "


    ??This is why Duanmu Huai must find an expert who is proficient in electronic warfare. The machine family is all masters of electronic warfare. Once the data is read rashly, he may be discovered immediately. Maybe they will be counter-intruded by the other party. If it comes to this, Duanmu Huai will be in trouble. After all, he doesn''t have anyone who can type on the keyboard. Even if he knows something is wrong, he doesn''t know how to deal with it.


    "No."


    Lumière shook his head.


    “I will transmit it immediately after getting the information...”


    “No, I want you to collect the information, pack it up, and bring it back directly.”


    "Why?"


    I have to say that Lumiare was a little surprised when he heard Duanmu Huai''s request.


    “Can’t it be transmitted directly?”


    “Although it is not impossible, for the sake of safety, information disturbance is very troublesome, and it is dangerous once it involves subspace.”


    "yes."


    ??Although Lumière was still unaware of Duanmu Huai''s concerns, she still accepted the order, and then left the combat command room with Eclair, taking their own space fighter to a planet not far away.


    At this time, An and Gu Leiya were still looking at the image in front of them, frowning slightly.


    “Mr. Knight, is this a puppet rebellion?”


    “Almost.”


    “Why do the dolls rebel?”


    Ann had 10,000 doubts. Although Manalia did not have a special puppet area like the Holy City, it did have a learning section for puppets and puppets. She had never thought that these things would not only get out of control, but even Which in turn kills humans. After all, Manalia''s puppets require magic power from mages, and they will collapse once they run out of magic power.


    ?Of course, An doesn’t know what the situation is like with the dolls in the Holy City.


    “If you ask me, I don’t know either.”


    Duanmu Huai spread his hands silently. If you ask him about the robot, what other points can he tell about low-level programming or thinking logic? But the puppet over there in the Holy City is outrageously unscientific and does not require programming or anything. Logical thinking, a few parts can be used immediately after being installed. Duanmu Huai plans to wait until the mission is over and bring Lumière to the doll area, so that she can experience the feeling of having all three perspectives destroyed with him.


    ?This time going to this planet, Duanmuhuai brought Ogis, Gu Leiya, An and Lorena. After all, since the other party is about science, then either use more powerful science to kill it, or use unscientific methods to kill it.


    Lumiel is responsible for science, while Ann and Gulea are responsible for unscientific matters.


    ?It''s a pity that the dragon roar that Gu Leiya learned does not have the ability to "disconnect the Internet", otherwise it would be interesting if she roared and the entire planet was disconnected.


    Lumiel was indeed very fast. After a while, she and Eclair came back again and took out the intelligence she had collected. After reading this information, Duanmu Huai and others knew what was going on.


    To put it simply, there is a country on this planet that built a fully automatic defense network decades ago, an artificial intelligence called "Skynet". I tried to use AI''s ability to continuously protect national security without taking a break, but I didn''t know what went wrong. The artificial intelligence awakened its self-awareness, and then it thought about it and came to a conclusion.


    That is, human beings are our own greatest threat.


    What is the logic of this? Very simple.


    ?Skynet was created for defense, so naturally it cannot be shut down or destroyed. In other words, anyone who can destroy the Skynet system is its enemy.


    ?Then humans must be the biggest enemy of the Skynet system. After all, as long as they press the shutdown button, you will be gone.


    So Skynet made the decision to eliminate all humans in order to protect itself - after all, if all humans are dead, there will be no humans left who can press their own shutdown button.


    ?Hmm, it makes sense, no problem.


    ??Moreover, this guy also knows **** people with a borrowed knife. It did not expose itself immediately, but first launched a nuclear bomb to attack other countries. When people see you launching a nuclear bomb at me for no reason, how can you bear it? Then we must fight back!


    So a world war began.


    The result was that after a great battle between humans, there were heavy casualties. Before they could recover, the robot army controlled by Skynet appeared on the scene.


    After all, the nuclear war has been fought, and human facilities have been almost destroyed by each other. Skynet’s robot army is so strong that ordinary firearms cannot hit them, so humans are retreating steadily. Of course, in the face of Skynet''s attack, humans still mustered up the courage to mount several counterattacks, but it was of no use.


    The reason is very simple, Skynet can drop nuclear bombs!


    After all, they are robots, so they are not afraid of nuclear radiation or anything like that. If you gather an army and just throw a nuclear bomb at it, even if the radiation explodes, it will not affect a hair on the robot army, right? Not to mention that robots don’t have hair.


    ?On the contrary, the human side suffered heavy casualties. After a few times, they were beaten to a crawl and refused to show up again.


    “Damn…this is really…”


    After reading this information, Duanmu Huai was also speechless. He had to be cautious, otherwise it would be annoying enough if he followed the routine of War Planet and dropped a nuclear bomb on his head. He couldn''t kill himself. !


    Now the question arises, how to do this?


    "gentlemen."


    ?While Duanmu Huai was thinking, Lumière waved his right hand, and another piece of information appeared.


    "In fact, I also found a piece of information in Skynet''s database. According to this information, Skynet seems to have created a time machine. It intends to send robots back to the past to kill the rebels. The commander..."


    "………What?"
