Chapter 218 To the Elven Empire! Part-2.

?218 To the Elven Empire! Part-2.

Near the capital city 'Astra'.

An underground military facility, a large hall.

The teleportation altar of the underground facility lit up and all of the students got teleported to this place.

When Rio opened his eyes, the first thing he noticed was that Jin was standing near the teleportation altar, he was likely waiting for them to arrive.

Rio glanced around and noticed that the place looked extremely high-tech and everything looked so futuristic in this place that even the equipment at the academy seemed to pale in comparison.

"Oh, you are all here, come I will escort you all myself…" (Jin)

Everyone nodded at Jin's words and followed after him.

Liam was just as curious as everyone and he became the first one to raise questions.

"Where even is this place?… this place looks more advanced than even the alliance headquarters…" (Liam)

In reply to his question, Jin nodded his head at Liam and started to explain as he walked along with the students.

"Hmm, I also found out about this place only after becoming an SS-ranker, you guys are lucky to see it so early…" (Jin)

"This place is, in simple terms a 'factory'… or you could say a factory that makes weapons of war for our army…" (Jin)

Jin's eyes narrowed as he glanced in one particular direction and then shook his head.

"There are many ridiculous weapons stored in this place, some are even capable of injuring an SS-ranker too… most of the high-level military weapons are made in this place…" (Jin)

It turns out every magic sword or bullet, every teleportation altar, and every single space ring, all these things are made in these types of insanely large underground 'factories'.

"There are currently at least a hundred similar facilities that are hidden all over the human empire, the location of these places is confidential so I can't tell that to you…" (Jin)

Jin smiled at the students and said in an encouraging voice.

"Become an SS-ranker, then you will also be eligible to know every single secret that our empire holds…" (Jin)

When Jin and others reached the end of the hall, the door opened automatically and a mechanical robotic voice sounded from the door.

[Identy verified, granted permission to enter.]

[Students of the Great Freya Academy, Welcome to the Tundracoustics Ltd.]

"Ah, that's the voice of the most advanced ai of today's world… hey! Introduce yourself to the children, solace!" (Jin)

[Order from 'Absolute' level permissions holder 'Jin Walt', confirmed] (Solace)

[Greetings, Children of Astra, I am the 87th generation Artificial Mind, Solace!] (Solace)

[I work for the good of the human race, I watch cat videos in the meantime…] (Solace)

[Pleased to make your acquaintance…] (Solace)

"Greetings…" (All of the students greeted solace in a united tone.)

[Aura of the 'Divine General Kawaki' detected!] (Solace)

[Welcome to our humble abode Divine general, I am pleased to meet you again…] (Solace)

[Registering the Aura of Shadow Dragon 'Elisia' in the database, greetings heir of the shadow lord…] (Solace)

Hearing Solace's voice, Lia asked Kai in surprise.

"You have met him before Kai?" (Lia)

At Lia's question, Kai appeared on Lia's shoulder in his cat form and said in a calm tone.

"Hmm, I did go to a similar facility with Tomar back then, the AI model at that time was on its 63rd generation I think…" (Kai)

[Indeed, my predecessor recorded your Aura Divine general, I am the descendant of that ai model…] (Solace)

Everyone had seen intelligence AIs in this world, but none of the AIs were as advanced as Solace was.

This Ai was created by King Allen during the early days of the thousand-year demon extinction war, after being developed for two thousand years, this Ai can already be considered a proper living being at this point.

He has his own thoughts and emotions now, he behaves just like a normal human would and he likes watching cat videos in his free time.

He's being permitted to use mobile robots to wander around in the factories as a 'salary'.

Currently, the four SS-rankers hold the highest level permissions over this Ai model, and they can command it to do anything that it is capable of doing.

Creating excellent war strategies and assisting in the development of new technologies, this AI can help in all of these things.

All of the war factories use Solace as their main AI to keep track of everything.

Solace has seen the struggles of the human race for two thousand years and he thinks that assisting humanity to reach a higher level is a noble cause.

Except for Rio none of the other students were too surprised by this ai.

Rio was surprised because he had never seen such an advanced AI in his previous life. This AI is so advanced that it won't be wrong to call it a 'sentient being' at this point.

It's more intelligent than an average S-ranker and it's extremely useful for the human race as a whole.

Although Rio was surprised his face remained as Emotionless as always.

Jin glanced at the students and then said in a calm tone.

"Although Solace is a good-natured guy, he was created to assist in war, after all, he has his own thought process for difficult conditions… for example.." (Jin)

"Solace, if you have the choice to save a thousand people by sacrificing ten people, will you kill those ten people?" (Jin)

[The first protocol is to listen to the order of the 'Absolute' level authority holders…] (Solace)

[In the absence of an 'Absolute' command, I will choose to sacrifice ten people to save the life of a thousand...]

(Solace)

[My creator King Allen von Reinhart once said: 'If I need to become a villain to save people's lives, then I am happy to do so…'] (Solace)

"He seems more human to me than many others…" (Rio)

Everyone else also nodded their head at Rio's statement.

Solace's personality has been mostly influenced by its creator, King Allen and he was designed as a war weapon thus his thinking will remain realistic at all times.

…

After chatting with Solace for a while, the students continued to follow Jin through the long corridors.

Along the way, they saw many technological weapons that were put on display for visitors and there were also preserved bodies of strong monsters that were floating in some kind of liquid.

"Not only is this place a factory, but there is also a fully functional research team here, at least three thousand researchers are working in this facility…" (Jin)

"They use Solace to help out in many tasks, thus the research progresses fast and new technologies appear extremely fast…" (Jin)

"Currently, the major goal for our researchers is to create a more enhanced version of the high-rank healing potion… it's a difficult task…" (Jin)

"Also there are some morally questionable things stored here in the research labs too… but it a good thing that they aren't using humans as lab rats…" (Jin)

Everyone simply avoided talking about this topic and the students didn't ask any questions about it either.

They all knew that thousands of monsters get captured in the dungeon raids and usually these monsters either end up getting used for their body parts or they end up in the hands of the mad researchers.

Being killed off is a better outcome than being used by these mad researchers for their questionable experiments.

[During the thousand-year war, we used death row criminals as lab rats, but now that practice has been stopped...] (Solace)

"You didn't need to tell that to the children, you know…" (Jin)

[It's better to know the truth early on, the world we live in is cruel to weak people…] (Solace)

"Well, yeah, no one can win an argument against you Solace…" (Jin)

[Haha, you praise me too much…] (Solace)

"This ai can laugh too?" (Liam)

"Solace sounds like an intelligent old professor to me…" (Link)

'Tch! Even an AI has more emotions than me….' (Rio)

"Haha, yes, I was also as amazed as you when I first heard him laugh…" (Jin)

"Hey, do cry too, Solace?" (Riya)

[The last time I cried was three years ago, it was because Ms. Raji was being mean to me… She said I sounded like creep…] (Solace)

Solace's voice carried sadness that could be perceived easily.

Riya was the most surprised when she heard that her older sister made an Ai cry.

"uh, well, big sis has always been a little too cold, so I can understand…" (Riya)

At Solace's sad voice, Riya could only console it with an awkward smile.

…

After a few more minutes of chit-chat, the group reached the end of the long corridor and the door opened by itself again.

A large hall appeared in everyone's eyes.

This hall was much bigger than the previous one and the most notable thing in this hall was the gigantic spaceship that was standing on its refueling pad.

The spaceship painted in black and gold, looked extremely majestic.

"This is one of the seven 'Super' class spaceships that our military possess, with its fully charged energy shield, its capable of resisting ten full powered blows from a peak SS-

ranker…"(Jin)

"This thing is no joke, it uses mana fusion reactors as its fuel and it's capable of short distance teleportation… at its max speed it can travel two times faster than the speed of light…" (Jin)

"This insane feat became possible after the discovery of 'space-time fabric manipulation technology'… we used space-

time magic of the SS-rankers to research this thing…" (Jin)

Hearing about the amazing futuristic capabilities of this spaceship, Rio was really shocked this time, he had only heard of the existence of such things in comics and movies in his previous life.

But now, the real thing was right in front of him.

"This is the pride of humanity, the name of this spaceship is…" (Jin)

['Super' Class spaceship, Adam…] (Solace)
