Following the metal avenue all the way ahead.
Jiang Yang finally reached the foot of an eggshell-shaped tower.
This, too, was a decidedly futuristic metal building, silver-white from top to bottom. Amid the wind and snow, it was impossible to tell which was colder.
Before the entrance.
The transparent glass doors seemed to lie beyond a layer of space-time, reflecting the shimmering light of a lake.
A golden silhouette was projected down from somewhere, and a handsome, blond virtual man appeared amid the wind and snow. His face was sunny and exceedingly approachable, with a faint air of nobility.
Upon closer inspection, Jiang Yang felt that the virtual projection's face bore some resemblance to his own.
Clearly, this was another of the super AIs created by the Divine Clan.
The procedure familiar to Jiang Yang began again, as a golden screen of light swept over him and the two goddesses from head to toe.
"Visitors' identities verified: Jiang Yang, God King of the Divine Clan, one of the highest-tier clearance holders.
Artemis, Olympus Divine Clan, level-two clearance holder.
Filiya, Kunlun Divine Clan, level-two clearance holder."
After finishing his precise recitation, the virtual blond man turned his virtual golden eyes toward Jiang Yang. Respect showed in his gaze as he bowed slightly in greeting.
"A pleasure to meet you. I have long heard of your great name, honored Lord Jiang Yang!"
Looking at the super AI projection before him, already so lifelike, its emotions vividly animated, Jiang Yang increasingly felt that the Divine Clan's AI technology had grown ever more advanced since obtaining the Ghost Clan's technology.
He had no aversion to super AIs. Or rather, because the Divine Clan had so few members, he could accept anyone capable of serving it.
He asked with a smile.
"Glad to meet you.
