You Have a New Job (Continued)

"Huh?"

"After all, Pink Fairy Lady can't refuse a request from a beautiful girl, especially from the cutest little Anqi!"

Elysia smiled radiantly.

But in reality, this is someone who has Honkai a lot to the Honkai, so it's not as easy as he says.

What she trusted was Anqi, whom she had spent every day with over the years, not some pretty girl... uh, I don't think so.

"Thanks."

Anqi hugged Elysia tightly around the waist, looked up, and revealed a sweet smile.

After spending some more time playing and joking with Elysia, the day came to an end.

In the following days, Anqi continued to seek opinions from other Flame-Chasers.

The details are omitted, but in short, two answers were obtained:

Half of the Flame-Chasers expressed their explicit agreement or had no objection.

The other half of Flame-Chasers answered with silence, but on this issue, silence actually indicated tacit agreement.

Vill-V: "But I don't know how Vill-V will answer~~"

Anqi: "(???)..."

There is one exception!

Anqi, who failed to achieve the "All Agree" achievement, decided to make a note of it in her little notebook. She'll decide how to repay the incredibly intelligent and voracious Dr. Vill-V based on the circumstances later!

Chapter 375. Go in first! Convert first!

"Fifty thousand years ago, before the Finality War, Apponia asked Dr. Vill-V if she could merge herself into the Land of the Past. Dr. Vill-V said that was a one-way street, but Apponia insisted."

"Finality War, Apponia, who had returned from the moon, walked alone into the deepest part of the Land of the Past... Fifty thousand years later, everything in the Land of the Past was still as new as ever, with almost no changes except for occasional data maintenance. This is something that the technology and materials from fifty thousand years ago could not explain."

"I don't know exactly how Dr. Vill-V designed it, nor do I know why Apponia made this choice. Was it because she foresaw something at the time? But in any case, I think the fact that Land of the Past remained the same when you arrived is probably due to Apponia's dedication."

Klein led the way, guiding Anqi into territory she had never set foot in before.

This is a road that becomes increasingly empty the further you walk.

It felt as if we were gradually moving away from the Elysian Realm, yet also as if we were approaching a more fundamental and essential realm.

Klein flew, he recounted the events of that year and shared his insights.

At this point in her story, she sighed with mixed feelings. Armed Doll are still people, with human emotions; in some ways, they differ from living humans only in their physical form. Therefore, Klein also felt sorrow for the tragic end of that year.

"I am Dr. Mobius's assistant, so I did not participate in Dr. Vill-V's original design. But I know the general process—the existence of the Land of the Past is closer to a data body, so for Apponia to integrate into the Land of the Past, it must first complete the transformation from a physical body to a data body."

"This involves research on the powers of the Herrscher of Reason and the Herrscher of Erosion. You can find relevant papers in the database, and you can read and study them yourself if you are interested. With your talent, you might be able to deduce Dr. Vill-V's ideas."

"In short, Apponia's physical body is now an omnipresent protective data structure in the Land of the Past. We are in contact with her all the time, but we can never truly touch her."

"So, in order to access her true form, you must first reverse that process, that is, the process of transforming from a data body into a physical body, and this is also the only passage to the Source Facility of the Land of the Past... Oh, please keep this part of the knowledge a secret from Dr. Mobius, as it was stipulated that it could not be revealed to her."

Klein suddenly turned around and emphasized to Anqi.

Anqi touched her chin, a wise expression on her face as if she had discovered a blind spot:

"Excuse me, who gave you this rule? Isn't Klein to be unable to refuse Dr. Mobius's requests?"

"The rule was set by Dr. Mobius 50,000 years ago. I can't refuse, but if the Doctor doesn't ask, I can choose not to say."

Klein simply blinked.

Then the little doll frowned and sighed:

"That being said, I always felt that the Doctor probably already understood these things, but she probably wasn't interested, so she just didn't bother to ask me."

"Hmm? That doesn't make sense. Didn't she always want to get out of there? How come she's not interested?"

"Do you think the conversion from data to physical body is easy? Especially for Fusion Warrior like the Doctor with an extremely large amount of physical data, to achieve this conversion, it would probably take draining all the energy of the entire Land of the Past. Moreover, there is no method for conversion. This research was never conducted back then, so it's a dead end no matter how you look at it."

Klein patiently answered his questions.

Anqi nodded, quickened her pace, and pulled Klein into her arms.

Klein, as was his habit, did not struggle and sat on Anqi's arm, continuing to recount the situation.

After walking for a while, the two saw a small black vortex at the end of the blank area. Fonts that looked like code were slowly being swallowed and emitted in the black hole, merging into the blank background.

"We've arrived. Come to think of it, even I have rarely ventured deep into this place in the past 50,000 years."

Klein pointed to the vortex and said calmly.

Anqi approached, resisting the urge to stick her finger into the hole, and lowered her head to wait for Klein's explanation.

Klein said:

"This is the only passage to the source facility and to see Apponia's body. You came from the outside, and you are actually a physical body, so you must first transform from a physical body into a data body in the Land of the Past. Then, through this entrance, your data will be transmitted into the spatial data of the source facility, and then you will be transformed from a data body into a physical body... and then you will reach your destination."

Anqi nodded, gradually understanding everything.

Simply put, the first step is to transform yourself from a physical entity into data, the second step is to enter the hole, and the third step is to transform yourself back into a physical entity inside the hole.

Anqi raised her hand:

"Professor Klein, I have a question."

"You say."

"You just said there's no way to turn data into an entity, but is there a way to turn an entity into data?"

"Yes, the only piece of equipment left by Dr. Vill-V is in the cave."

Klein pointed to the hole again.

Anqi's lips twitched.

"Excuse me, how do I get in?"

"First, convert the physical body into a data body."

"How do I convert it?"

"Go inside first, and you can use the equipment to convert it."

Klein said earnestly.

Anqi's face was expressionless, somewhat unwilling to believe it, so she persisted in asking:

"But how do I get in?"

"Convert first."

"Then how do I convert it?"

"Go inside and take a look."

Klein the same serious expression.

Anqi stared blankly at Klein, and Klein stared blankly back at Anqi.

After a long pause, Anqi lifted the Klein in her hands, brought it close to her face, and opened her mouth:

"Awoo!"

Anqi took the soft, white cheek in her mouth and gently savored the texture with her teeth, making smacking sounds of enjoyment.

"Holy crap!!!"

Klein horror, his eyes wide, and he kicked his short legs frantically.

A dozen minutes later.

Klein floated about ten steps away from Anqi, wiping the moisture from his face with his hand, his eyes filled with relief at escaping death.

Anqi then went to the entrance of the cave and looked around from all directions, trying to find some clues.

"Now you know why I kept examining your core so closely, right? Because I didn't know how to integrate your core into the system of the Land of the Past."

Klein finally calmed his fear and moved a little closer to Anqi.

Anqi nodded.

"Entity transforms into data, and then data transforms back into entity. Theoretically, this is one of the manifestations of the Erosion Authority. Since there's no scientific method for this, what if... cough, I mean, what if, besides being Thousand-Person Ruler, I also possess the power of the Key of Erosion?"

"The Key of Erosion is theoretically feasible... Wait, what did you say, erosion!?"

As the maintainer of the Land of the Past, Klein knew very well where the greatest weakness lay in the place where he had worked for fifty thousand years. A chilling shiver ran through him.

Anqi stretched out her hand and made a grasping motion in the air. A jet-black longsword slowly emerged, radiating an ominous dark aura.

"Whoosh~~"

Anqi licked the black blade, a terrifying, yandere-like smile spreading from her body into the surrounding air, making her look every bit the dark demon king revealing her true face.

"This knife of mine carries the Erosion Authority, hehehe!"

"Ho—"

Klein's body jerked, then his eyes rolled back, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

She fainted from fright.
