Chapter 531: Conversation with the Embers Leader

As the orange-red color gradually permeated the surroundings of the black screen, a blurry human-shaped afterimage slowly appeared on the black screen in front of the two people.

And just by relying on this blurry outline, Lin Lan, who had seen the black enterprise portrait in the game, had already recognized that the short-haired figure wearing a torn cloak on the other side of the screen was undoubtedly Enterprise Meta.

Enterprise also stared at the familiar outline on the black screen.

She had never told anyone that she had had countless nightmares because of the other party's words.

She dreamed of a battlefield full of endless destruction, countless companions died in front of her, and endless meteor showers that were as gorgeous as the whole sky collapsing...

But later, with the company of the commander, she quickly got rid of these nightmares.

As long as the commander was by her side, she could overcome all fears.

At this time, after a long time, she once again faced Enterprise Meta, who had the same name as her. In addition to vigilance, there was also a touch of complex emotions in her eyes.

If those nightmares were real experiences of the other party, then the leader of the Embers could become so strong at the cost of blood and tears.

Just as Lin Lan was expecting the outline of the figure on the screen to become clear, suddenly, a female tough voice that was almost exactly the same as the voice of Enterprise beside him sounded coldly on the black screen:

"Helena, the communication on your side is very unstable. If there is anything important, will you activate this emergency communication channel to contact me?"

Hearing this cold voice full of vicissitudes, Lin Lan immediately realized that Enterprise meta could not see his situation clearly.

After all, the other party is not even in this alien world now, and being able to successfully establish communication is probably the limit of Hei Hai Ma.

Because the other party could not see his face clearly, Enterprise meta also thought that it was Helena meta who initiated the contact.

However, Lin Lan also knew that as soon as he opened his mouth, the other party would definitely guess his identity, so he simply said bluntly:

"Enterprise meta, I'm sorry I'm not Helena meta, I'm her commander."

"..."

After he opened his mouth, the other party fell into a long silence.

Unconsciously, Lin Lan felt a layer of sweat on his forehead, and his heart beat faster and faster.

If the other party didn't intend to communicate with him at this time...

Just as he was about to speak again, the black outline finally responded:

"Commander, is that so? We met a long time ago, but as far as I know, your existence completely disappeared before, and even I can't find your trace."

"Where did you go during this time?"

I don't know if it was his illusion, Lin Lan actually felt that Enterprise meta's originally cold voice actually carried a bit of worry.

But since Enterprise meta didn't intend to hang up the communication directly, Lin Lan's hanging heart finally settled down a little.

As long as the other party is willing to continue communicating, it's fine if he didn't hang up the communication.

As for what Black Enterprise said about them having met before, it should be referring to the early plot of the game, Sandbox Therapy.

Speaking of which, as a player, he also led the White Eagle Fleet to confront Enterprise Meta and Kaohsiung Meta in order to resolve the singularity that appeared in the Bermuda Sea.

The current situation seems to be somewhat similar to the situation of that event.

It was in the plot of Sandbox Therapy that players learned that the singularity was not created by Siren, but was a technology mastered by Ember.

"This is a long story. If you are curious, I will let Helena Meta explain it to you in the future."

Lin Lan did not directly answer Enterprise Meta's question, but delayed the question.

Unlike his ship girls, he still did not know the purpose of Enterprise Meta.

The purpose of the other party's actions so far is unclear, and he could not explain to the other party that he was traveling back in a few words.

After all, he did not swear an oath with Enterprise Meta, and it was not certain whether the other party would believe him.

Without waiting for Enterprise meta to ask again, Lin Lan gritted his teeth and directly stated his request:

"You should have learned from the meta ship girls who joined my port that I am currently in the singularity world you are about to activate."

"You are going to take them to forcibly open the singularity in this world that is contained by the Sirens, but... Enterprise meta, I will say it directly, I hope you can give up opening this singularity."

"Under the blockade of the Sirens, the probability of this singularity being successfully opened is too low, and it is likely to evolve into a war."

"Helena meta will convey my thoughts to the meta ship girls who joined my port. After all, once the singularity collapses during the operation of opening the singularity, the consequences will be disastrous, so..."

"Okay."

"As compensation, I will... Wait, you agree?!"

Before Lin Lan finished speaking, he heard Enterprise meta agree directly and readily.

This sudden response not only made his brain short-circuit instantly, but even Enterprise beside him was stunned. He didn't expect it to unfold like this.

Originally, Lin Lan was thinking that if it really didn't work, he would promise to help Yu Jin open a new singularity in the future, but the other party agreed without saying anything...

When did the leader of Ember become so easy to talk to?

It seemed that he also felt that he agreed too quickly, and Enterprise Meta's explanation came immediately:

"I owed Frederick a favor, this time I will repay her."

Hearing this, Lin Lan immediately remembered that in the game plot, Frederick the Great had led the High Seas Fleet to cooperate with Ember for a period of time.

It seems that Frederick and the iron-blooded ship girls of the High Seas Fleet helped Enterprise Meta a lot.

But just as Lin Lan was about to take a deep breath and express his gratitude to the Ember leader, Enterprise meta's next words stunned him on the spot:

"However, even if I agree to give up opening the singularity, the process of starting this singularity is no longer something I can interrupt alone."

"What do you mean by that? Isn't the singularity a technology that you Ember masters?"

It was Enterprise who spoke. Her surprised words made Enterprise meta in the communicator seem to be stunned. After a moment, she slowly spoke again:

"So 'you' are also by the commander's side."

"..."

Enterprise heard the other party's voice full of complex emotions, and for some reason, a trace of bitterness in her heart was inexplicably stained.

At this moment, she had a faint illusion that this obviously very powerful meta ship girl with the same name as her seemed to recall a painful memory.

After the initial shock, Lin Lan quickly understood the meaning of what Enterprise Meta said. He forced himself to calmly ask:

"Enterprise Meta, you said that you alone cannot interrupt the process of the singularity activation. Is this singularity out of your control now?"

"Although it is not as simple as you said, it is basically the case."

The voice from Enterprise Meta returned to a cold tone. He first affirmed his idea, and then patiently explained:

"The development of the singularity requires a large amount of meta energy to be injected into a point on the world wall as a singularity in advance. These meta energies will spontaneously begin to expand."

"When the intensity of meta energy reaches a critical point of qualitative change, it will evolve into the singularity you have seen before after activation."

"The technology used by Antix to contain the singularity is called the reverse meta storm, which is the large black storm wrapped outside the singularity that you saw in the NY waters."

Hearing this, Lin Lan finally understood how Siren contained the singularity.

As Enterprise Meta said, Siren had used this technology of wrapping the singularity with a big storm in the plot of the game's large-scale battles.

This black storm filled with meta energy not only has a wide range, but also affects the local magnetic field, causing a large-scale communication short circuit.

While Lin Lan was thinking, Enterprise Meta finally said how to completely close this singularity:

"I have injected enough meta energy into this singularity, but now these meta energies have been disturbed by the reverse meta storm created by Antix in the world and cannot be recovered."

"If I forcibly close the singularity at this time, these uncontrolled meta energies will still cause the singularity to collapse."

"So, this requires you to destroy the reverse storm controller around the singularity in the world, so that I can recover all the meta energy in the singularity and safely close the singularity."
