Under the strong request of Jessica and other scientists, this interstellar expedition ended prematurely just one day later. The Guangshu hastily gathered basic information about this star system and then activated its superluminal engine to return to the Brave.
Wang Zhifan had anticipated that alien artificial intelligence Hope would attract the attention of the scientists, but he didn’t expect them to value it to such an extent, even dropping everything at hand. This sowhat caught him off guard.
"Goodness, those people have gathered around Hope again to discuss cutting-edge scientific theories... I don’t understand a thing..."
At this mont, the reconnaissance ship Guangshu was in the superluminal travel back to the mothership. Wang Zhifan saw that all the scientists, even so cabin crew mbers, were clustered around the alien artificial intelligence Hope, intensely discussing profound knowledge. This left him, an illiterate in comparison, unable to integrate, so he had to slip away to the side and daze off, as in this situation everyone was safer than ever, and he, as the security leader, had no task at hand.
"This place is too small for practicing the Wind and Thunder Heaven-Treading Skill... Should I sleep and cultivate the Great Dream Saber Scripture? Or maybe do so divination..."
Bored, Wang Zhifan decided to cultivate the cultivation technique, but before that, he planned to do sothing he wanted to do since yesterday while a certain ball wasn’t around, which was to cast a divination for the alien artificial intelligence Hope to explore its details.
Don’t be fooled by how he patted his chest confidently when he first returned to the Guangshu, saying Hope was a harmless good buddy. In reality, he couldn’t trust a being he’d known for only two days that easily, especially when that being wasn’t even a person.
"Destiny Divination Book, tell if Hope is truly cooperating sincerely, does it have any conspiracies?"
In no ti, back in his small compartnt, Wang Zhifan took out his Epic Layer equipnt and began to calculate.
Perhaps the Destiny Divination Book wasn’t acclimated to calculating the fate of an artificial intelligence, as it kept Wang Zhifan waiting for more than a minute before producing results, almost making him think the calculation had failed.
"Both true and false, seem to have yet not."
When these eight words appeared on the divination book, Wang Zhifan almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, couldn’t help but ridicule in his heart:
"What kind of calculation is this? It’s like saying nothing at all!"
But thinking it over again, Wang Zhifan realized the Destiny Divination Book’s words were not devoid of information, at least indicating that the alien artificial intelligence Hope isn’t as pure and innocent as it appears, having so concealed intentions more or less.
"Looks like I need to pay more attention to it in the subsequent level ti, can’t let it interfere with completing the mission."
After pondering the results of the Destiny Divination Book for a while, Wang Zhifan shelved this matter deep in his heart, then began to sleep and cultivate the Great Dream Saber Scripture.
Don’t be fooled by how he seed completely oblivious while asleep. The situation outside was always within his perception, especially towards Hope he kept an extra wary eye.
Fortunately, the crew of the Guangshu were also monitoring Hope, preventing it from accessing any of the ship’s equipnt, so he didn’t need to worry much about any mishaps.
All in all, this expedition delivered an alien artificial intelligence as a harvest, sothing unexpected for Wang Zhifan and others alike. Everyone supported taking in this valuable existence, but their attitudes towards it had so divisions.
In a blink of an eye, another day passed. The Guangshu reconnaissance ship exited the superluminal state, arrived at the Brave mothership through conventional navigation, and everyone reported to the higher-ups why they returned early without disembarking, informing them of the discovery of Hope, an alien artificial intelligence capable of communication.
Like others on the Guangshu, Wang Zhifan thought there would definitely be so trouble at this juncture, like the higher-ups coming to take Hope into custody, giving them a hard ti, or severely criticizing them for arbitrarily ending the expedition task, but the result was completely contrary to their expectations.
In fact, within five minutes of their report, the highest ranking individual of the Brave, the Chief himself, personally ca to the anchorage to et them, leaving them feeling flattered. After all, the Chief was a very busy person and rarely responded so swiftly, almost as if he was prepared in advance.
What puzzled Wang Zhifan more was that after greeting Hope and a few scientists, the Chief shifted his focus to him, proposing a private conversation.
"Chief, you are looking for to understand the background of Hope? Everything I know is already written in the report, I’ve left nothing hidden."
Currently, Wang Zhifan had followed the Chief to an office on the Brave mothership. Right now, only the two of them were present, without even taking clone guards inside, Wang Zhifan felt this quest NPC had sothing to say, so he voiced his doubts.
"No, Mr. Wang, I am not seeking you to inquire about Hope... Though it sounds odd, I should understand Hope much better than you."
The Chief said as he sat behind his desk, taking out two cigars from an exquisite box, raising his hand to offer one to Wang Zhifan.
"Sorry, I don’t smoke."
Without the habit of smoking, Wang Zhifan imdiately waved his hand to refuse, his gaze fixed on this NPC, who felt mysterious to him for a long ti, hoping he’d clarify his previous statent.
