"The first test run of the 'Holy Grail'... started."

This is inside a windowless building.

This was once the secret place where Catherine was placed.

But since Catherine was rescued, there has been a gate here.

This is a door that is opened with a graphene-coated cutting knife. Other than that, there is no other way to enter.

But now, it has been completely transformed.

The place where Catherine's body was once stored has been transformed into the core of the supercomputer "Holy Grail".

The "Holy Grail" is a product that combines an extended brain with modern computer technology. The biggest difference between this computer and previous computers is that it can perform logical operations.

The so-called logical thinking is to obtain anthropomorphic thinking ability with the help of the human brain network in the virtual world. Its principle is similar to that of NPCs in games.

Of course, unlike NPCs that only have the ability to interact with players, the Holy Grail was designed from the beginning to be Catherine's assistant and the core part of ark.

However, this type of computer also has a shortcoming, that is, if the game is under maintenance, or the number of players is greatly reduced, the anthropomorphic thinking ability of the Holy Grail will be weakened or even disappear.

"Self-test completed."

"Equipment testing completed."

"Program reading...completed."

"System starting..."

Catherine rarely left the virtual world and came to the "Holy Grail".

In other words, we came to a pool full of black mud.

"Miss Edson."

The black mud suddenly surged up and formed a black Catherine.

The composition of these black muds is similar to mimetic substances.

The reason why it is black... Catherine will never tell others. This is the experience she gained from fate, let alone tell these people that the term "Holy Grail" was also simply stolen by Catherine...

"This is all the evil in the world~"~~(╯﹏╰)b

Catherine was very excited.

However, the surface of Catherine at this moment has become black. Compared with the black Catherine opposite, the Catherine here has no face. However, this appearance will not be preserved for too long, because Catherine is coming soon.

A "rebirth".

"Unknown meaning, Miss Edson."

Although "Holy Grail" has intelligence, looking at the current situation, it seems that the other party cannot be said to be artificial intelligence, and is even worse than the one on "Song of the Sky".

It's not Catherine's fault. Although Catherine recruited a group of Mensa members to play the "game", the number of people is still a limit after all.

"I'm just talking to myself, don't worry~"

Catherine waved her hand, but there was no sound on the surface.

In fact, Catherine's current individual cannot make a sound, because the black t-x substance on Catherine's surface has sealed her facial features. However, Catherine does not need to make a sound, she only needs to directly convey her consciousness to the other party.

.

This is the scientific version of sound transmission into the secret...

"Speaking of which, you don't have a name yet? I'll give you a name."

Catherine sat aside and "observed" the Holy Grail with her thoughts.

"Emiya Shirou? No, the hyena is a bulldozer, no, no..."

"Irisviel? Hey, this is pretty good. But is there something better?"

"...Nasu Mushroom?" After thinking of this name, Catherine was suddenly shocked! We don't want the Holy Grail to become the king of cold rice!

"Well, Irisviel is better..."

Catherine conveyed her image of Irisviel to the "Holy Grail" supercomputer.

"I understand. Miss Edson."

Having said that, the supercomputer opposite has changed according to Catherine's wishes.

The black mud surged, and then formed the appearance of "Irisviel". Then, the "Holy Grail" began to "color" the other party according to the ideas transmitted to itself by Catherine.

Soon, a darkened version of "Irisviel" appeared in front of Catherine.

"It's a pity. You can only move around here. It would be great if you could leave."

Catherine sighed. However, Irisviel can only exist in this "black mud", and there is no way around it. Energy, materials, transmission systems, computer technology, and all kinds of current technology are not up to standard.

"Unclear meaning, Miss Edson."

At this time, the other party's voice also changed into the pleasant voice of "Irisviel".

In fact, this artificial intelligence can now be called "Irisviel".

"Miss Edson, your friend is outside the door."

"Oh well."

If Catherine fully expands her consciousness, she will be able to know everything around her. However, this is a waste of energy for Catherine, so except for communication, Catherine is now closed to the outside world.

But this is only temporary. As long as she is "reborn" in the future, Catherine will be able to have this kind of super-sense along with her five senses. At that time, Catherine will not have to worry about it.

By turning on her super senses, Catherine, who was originally in darkness and silence, instantly received all the information from the outside world.

Lisa and Lily were joking with Elsa while walking towards inside.

"Okay, now just keep the 'Holy Grail' running, that's it."

Catherine entered the communication network through her supersensory senses, and then issued commands to the remote control center.

"Ms. Edson, you can leave this kind of work to me in the future."

Irisviel said to Catherine.

"Let's wait until you are familiar with the environment." Irisviel's intelligence does not always exist. If no one plays the game, there will be no "Irisviel" now, so Catherine said this.

"Okay, Miss Catherine."

Catherine picked up the helmet next to her and walked outside. This was Bane's helmet. Eden was not far from here, so Catherine walked over directly for convenience. As long as she put on a Bane-shaped helmet and pretended to be it, it was completely

No problem anymore.

"Why are you here?"

Catherine's thoughts were transmitted all the way to the minds of the three of them.

"Kate?" Elsa responded first.

"I'm right in front."

The three of them moved forward together. Soon, they saw a black human figure.

"Kate, is this you?"

Lily walked over curiously first.

"You can look at it that way for the time being, but it won't be the case soon." Catherine shrugged. The American shrug is a unique skill that needs to be practiced!

"Originally, there was an external suit. But it is still undergoing metabolic replacement. So it will be installed in the Hive Laboratory in two days."

Elsa explained next to her.

"I see," Lisa circled around Catherine: "But it is somewhat similar to my doll...ah, the inspiration came out unconsciously~"

"But this look is really sexy, and Kate's figure is on full display. Sure enough, it's a very worthwhile choice for me to come and see~"

Lily seemed to find it even more interesting.

"..."

Catherine had a habit of looking at the sky - well, she just focused on the ceiling.

"There is an unknown attack inside. Miss Edson, the target of the attack is directly above you, please take precautions."

"Um……?"

All four people were stunned by the sudden sound.

The other three were just startled by the sound.

And Catherine was because of the content of the voice...

On top of yourself?

Entering the analysis state, Catherine's "field of vision" immediately narrowed to the surrounding three-meter area.

"The structure above the ceiling has deformed...are you kidding me?"

Is it because of what I just did?

"What is that sound?" Lily asked.

Elsa reacted at this time: "It's probably the artificial intelligence here. We have installed a supercomputer here."

"She just... said something terrible..."

Catherine murmured, then walked back to the black mud pool.

"Miss Edson."

Irisviel appears again.

"Oh~!"

Everyone else was amazed by this lifelike artificial intelligence for a long time.

"Good afternoon ladies, I am the artificial intelligence system of the 'Holy Grail' supercomputer. My name is Irisviel."

"What just happened?"

Catherine communicated with the other party.

"Right above you, a sudden displacement change occurred. The tempered carbon nanotube fiber material produced a harmful displacement change without external force. I determined it to be an attack."

"Displacement change?"

"Yes. It's pure displacement. I didn't detect any change in force."

Others could only hear Irisviel's answer, but not Catherine's words. However, Catherine could not communicate with them now. This was determined by Catherine's current super-sensory nature.

"Now notify Jenny White. Tell her what happened just now, and tell her that what happened just now was probably caused by me."

"clear."

Irisviel immediately started to communicate.

Catherine looked at the artificial intelligence across from her with some regret.

Originally, Catherine was planning to use quantum computers as the core in the Holy Grail, but unfortunately, Catherine has not "lit up" the technology tree of quantum computers for the time being.

Therefore, the current Holy Grail is only a "steward" and cannot act as a researcher. Its help to the Hive Laboratory is also relatively limited.

"But what happened just now...what exactly was it?"

Catherine suddenly fell into deep thought.

…

Haha, I have returned to the Ku Klux Klan. This is the rhythm of restoring moral integrity, hahahahaha~
