Chapter 1084 The First Arbitrator
"Well, that's what happened. Comrade-chan, you need to make it clear earlier. Tashkent is about to open fire."
It took a while for Lin Lan to explain everything that happened in the port area to Tashkent.
At the same time, he also told the Northern Alliance girl the ins and outs of why he came to Natland.
"Before I even had a chance to say anything, you had already unfolded your ship's suit... Well, it's my fault. I will make sure to explain things as quickly as possible in the future."
After Tashkent dispersed the unique steel ice dragon ship uniform of Beilian, Lin Lan also smiled awkwardly.
In the story of the game event, the good man Richard, who was still controlled by the bad omen, almost brought Kronstadt and the accompanying experimental submarine team composed of Volga, Arkhangst, Sensitive and Kiev into a fantasy world. Trapped in the deep sea for a long time.
Even Kronshtadt was affected by it in the ominous illusion, and almost turned into a meta.
As a member of the Northern Alliance rescue team, Tashkent naturally knew about the existence of Good Man Richard, and equated Good Man Richard with a bad omen.
Lin Lan also knew that the good man Richard, who was still controlled by bad omens at that time, had demonstrated the ability to switch between his own meta appearance before and after at any time, in order to lower the enemy's vigilance and confuse the enemy's mind.
In fact, not only the Northern Union ship girls, but also the royal ship girls also had battles with the good man Richard who was controlled by the bad omen.
Having made these conflicts, the ladies of the Northern Alliance and the Royal Ship must be deeply afraid of the good man Richard.
The impatient Tashkent also reminded him that when he introduces Richard to the ship girls from the two camps in the future, he still needs to pay more attention to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
"I'm sorry, Miss Richard, Tashkent misunderstood you just now."
Now that it is known that the good man Richard is no longer a bad omen monster, Tashkent also apologized to Richard.
"It doesn't matter~ In fact, I already guessed that this would be the case just now. After all, the ships of the Northern Alliance are all outspoken. I have long been used to it, hehe~"
After the white-haired aircraft carrier girl joked about Tashkent, she slightly suppressed the smile on her face, stood up, and bowed deeply to Tashkent:
"Actually... Richard still has some memories of that time. He caused so much trouble to your comrades before, and it's me who should apologize."
"Ah, that was all X's doing. Didn't Comrade-chan say that Miss Richard is also a victim?"
Tashkent did not expect that Richard would ask for forgiveness so sincerely, and instead felt a little at a loss.
The Beilian girl thought for a while, then took out an unopened glass bottle of drink from the ship's storage space and handed it over:
"From now on, we will all be friends in the port area. If we drink this bottle of water of life together, Tashkent will also protect you, huh!"
Lin Lan couldn't help laughing when she saw the good Richard looking at the bottle of liquor in Tashkent's hand with a confused look on his face.
Although Tashkent looks like a beautiful and elegant cold princess from the North, and she was born in the Sardinian Empire, Tashkent has long been a part of the Northern Alliance camp and has the unique bold personality of the Northern Alliance girls.
"It's better to treat Richard to drink this vodka when Xiu Meng wakes up. Tashkent, how did you and Xiu Meng come to Nanzhou?
"And what about the injuries on Feng Meng's body and the nursery rhymes about Spark Column?"
Lin Lan rescued the good guy Richard in time.
He couldn't wait to know why Tashkent and Fierce came to Natlannan State.
This Changliu County is across the entire Natlan Central State from Beizhou.
Not to mention that the temporary port area of the Northern Alliance Ship Girls, according to the map of the Xinghai Base, should be located in the coastal waters around the Great Wall of the Frontier in the northernmost part of Natland.
This made him think that he would see his Donghuang shipgirl first, but he never expected that it would be the two Beilian destroyer girls who would reunite with him first.
Tashkent did not take back the glass bottle of spirits, but directly unscrewed the cap and drank half the bottle in one go as if drinking water.
In the room filled with the aroma of wine, the Northern Alliance destroyer girl immediately explained to him and Richard in detail their team's reconnaissance mission and the ins and outs of the attack by the Nightmare Fleet.
Lin Lan could hardly believe her ears when she heard that the brutal injuries were actually caused by the talkative Diroy.
"Dilroy? Tashkent, are you sure you read it correctly?"
"It's absolutely true. The three-legged mecha is exactly the same as the one summoned by Marco Polo at the Sardinian Exhibition. It can also release corrosive substances."
Tashkent finished speaking very firmly, thought about it, and then pouted:
“But now that I think about it, Tashkent found that the Diroy that attacked us is indeed different from what was recorded in the port information.
"That Deroy can not only control the evil cultivators of Natlan and the Nightmare Fleet, but the disgusting corrosives it releases are not white, but black."
Listening to Tashkent's description, Lin Lan touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
Through the player's perspective on Blue Star, he remembered that Diroy was actually an automated weapon created by Arbiter Helopant.
Just like Diabelu who used Lu Ling's soul to make a beacon to summon X in Liaozhou, Helopant also has the means to use X.
But even though Zero had already said to stop the Judger plan, why did Herophant's Diroy still attack the Northern Alliance ship girl?
Moreover, during the event in the Kingdom of God on Land, he remembered that Diroy did not seem to be operating with the Nightmare Fleet, but was cooperating with the Sardinian mass-produced fleet controlled by white fungus erosion and Helopant's agents. Combat.
"Could it be that...these Diroys who appeared in Natland were actually affected by bad omens and escaped from Helopant's control?"
The more Lin Lan thought about it, the more he felt that his inference was correct.
Antix's host Zero has said to terminate the Judger Project, so Helopant, as a member of the arbitration body, will definitely not take action against his ship girls again.
Combined with the nightmare fleet that was eroded by the bad omen at the Natlan Experimental Facility, there is a high probability that the Diroy who attacked Kirov and Tashkent was also corroded by the bad omen.
After telling the two girls about this idea, the good man Richard hesitated for a moment and told him an extremely surprising piece of information:
"Teacher, although Richard doesn't know what Diloy is, I still have an impression of Miss Herophant.
"When I was still in a hazy meta state, I vaguely remember seeing Helopant. She seemed to be trying to wake me up, but failed in the end.
"I...I witnessed with my own eyes that Helopant was swallowed up by other corrosive substances of X's nature..."
When Lin Lan heard that there was such a thing, he began to rack his brains to recall all the details about Helopant in the game.
The distant memory of the plot of the game event really reminded him of some information about Helopant.
As the codename "Pope" in the tarot cards and the first arbitrator of the Antix Arbitration Organization System born in the world, Helopant was originally designed to bear the responsibility of external business cards.
Its communication and affinity have been strengthened by Dr. Aosta, and it is equipped with an upgraded intelligent analysis system.
The successful birth of this original arbiter not only made all subsequent Antixes achieve a qualitative leap in their minds, but also eliminated the public's view that Antixes were simply AIs.
Even the communication ability specialized by Helopant can be used to communicate with various animals and make achievements in political diplomacy.
Dr. Anjie also made it clear in the game event plot that maybe Helopant can talk to and communicate with X, so that X does not have to destroy the original world.
During the game's event plot, Anjie even seemed to break the fourth wall and directly consulted him as a player for his opinions.
Of course, with Manjiu's pit-digging style, this foreshadowing was not taken back until he traveled through time.
But it is an indisputable fact that the original world was destroyed by X.
Thinking of this, he recalled the conversation he vaguely heard between Dr. Anjie and Dr. Aosta before he passed out on Gaotian Island:
"I once tried to treat the world gently, but I didn't expect that this would be the greatest harm to it..."
"Did you see it? This is the tragic ending brought about by your weakness——"
Aosta's voice talking to Anjie echoed in Lin Lan's mind.
Needless to say, X is by no means an object of communication.
This is the greatest enemy of survival that cannot be compromised for any life.
But Lin Lan suddenly realized something and shuddered suddenly.
“Wait a minute, Richard, you said you saw Helopant being eroded by X with your own eyes.
"Tashkent, the Diloy that attacked you can speak human words and release X corrosive energy to injure you ferociously.
"There is no doubt that the source of the bad omen has been completely eliminated, but there are still a large number of nightmare fleets in Natland..."
He swallowed his saliva and expressed a guess that he was extremely unwilling to believe:
"Is it possible that there is an X monster hiding in the Helopant host tower that even Zero has not discovered, and has similar properties to the origin of Omen?"
