With a question, he pressed the power button, and the computer actually lit up.
Xiao Xun didn't recognize the startup screen and displayed text. Xiao Xun, who called himself a computer genius, was like an illiterate at this moment, only able to guess what the software was for based on the appearance of the icons.
Xiao Xun glanced at the keyboard. The characters on the keyboard were the same as those on the computer.
However, the computer only differed in text; the rest of the operating methods were the same as the computers in that world.
This was good. Xiao Xun found paper and a pen in the computer desk drawer.
He clicked on an application, saw what it was for, and then translated the application's name into the two languages he knew.
In this way, by examining the same software, he wrote three full pages of notes, equivalent to creating a codebook. wp.kanshuwu.net
Then, he created a new document and typed a character on the keyboard, comparing it with the meaning recorded in the notebook.
Based on the meanings on the paper, he drew a keyboard himself.
"Strange, where did he get all these things? Could this place travel freely through time and space?"
Thinking of this, Xiao Xun stood up and walked around the divine hall. On a white disc plugged into a power source, he found a floating little white ball.
"Little white ball, so you're here! Why aren't you responding to me?"
He picked up the little white ball with both hands and looked at it, but there was no switch or instruction. "How do I start it?"
He tucked the little white ball under his arm and picked up the white disc. The instruction manual for the little white ball was right underneath it.
Xiao Xun picked up the instruction manual and read the words on it, "Intelligent Butler Xiao Ke, you..."
"I'm here~"
Before Xiao Xun could finish reading, the little white ball under his arm emitted a blue light, extended its eyes, and was awakened.
Xiao Xun was startled by the sudden sound, and as he let go, the little white ball floated in mid-air.
"Master, what are your orders?"
Xiao Xun said with surprise, "So your name is Xiao Ke!"
"I'm here~"
Xiao Xun pouted, "Why do you only say that one sentence?"
Xiao Ke immediately retorted, "I can say many things! You can ask me what the weather is like today, or what are the trending news topics."
Xiao Xun clapped his hands excitedly, "This is really interesting, Xiao Ke, please turn on the TV for me."
"Okay, Master, the TV is on."
There was indeed movement from the TV. Xiao Xun walked towards the TV, with Xiao Ke following closely behind.
"Xiao Ke."
"I'm here~"
Xiao Xun thought for a moment, "Make me something to eat!"
Xiao Ke changed its tone, "I'm very sorry, Master, but Xiao Ke cannot fulfill your request at this time. Please log in to the official website or use the mobile app to download the Xiao Ke Intelligent Butler to unlock more functions for me."
Xiao Xun was stunned, "This is clearly future technology. Could it be that future intelligent robots have already surpassed the Turing test?"
He muttered this and suddenly remembered the top-secret files that Cui Zhihao had shown him, exclaiming, "Could it be... that guy Cui Zhihao was telling the truth."
Looking at Xiao Ke floating beside him, "Xiao Ke."
"I'm here~"
Xiao Xun asked, "Are there any robots smarter than you?"
"Xiao Ke is the smartest robot in this world..."
Xiao Xun frowned and asked again, "Are there any robots smarter than you?"
Xiao Ke repeated, "Xiao Ke is the smartest robot in this world."
Xiao Xun's brow slightly unfurrowed, and then he asked one last time, "Are there any robots smarter than you?"
Xiao Ke replied, "Master, if you are not confident in your question, please reconsider before asking."
Xiao Xun felt goosebumps rise, more frightened than when he saw the red high heels, and had an urge to dismantle it to find out what was inside.
He thought of another question, "Xiao Ke."
"I'm here~"
He stared at Xiao Ke's lens, "Will you harm humans?"
If it said something like, "We are friends of humanity," Xiao Xun would dismantle it without hesitation. He would go back and stop the development of AI.
But Xiao Ke said, "I find this question difficult to understand. Master, you are so amazing."
Xiao Xun looked at its lens, "Vague word processing? It seems this system is being monitored by someone."
Then Xiao Xun tried saying a few words related to humans and received the same answer. It seemed that the word "human" was an absolute taboo in the robot's system.
He glanced at the clock on the wall and found four electronic clocks hanging there, showing four different times. It felt like they were stolen from a hotel front desk.
Xiao Xun was unsure which time was from this world, so he asked Xiao Ke, "Xiao Ke, what time is it now?"
"It is now 6:20 PM."
Xiao Xun glanced at the clock on the wall, and the time Xiao Ke stated matched the time displayed on the first clock.
After checking the time, Xiao Xun ran out quickly, observing the sun's position relative to the hands. The current time was still the same as when he first entered, around 11 AM.
Xiao Xun scratched his head and thought, 'I spent so long inside, why is the time outside not consistent? Could it be that the space inside the divine hall is another dimension?'
He walked back in and saw that the third clock inside showed 11:32 AM, while the first clock still showed 7 AM.
He had only been out for a short while, and forty minutes had passed inside.
He was greatly shocked, "This, how can this be... If I stayed here until I was an old man, wouldn't months have passed back then? No wonder the old man was so powerful, it turns out he found a loophole in time."
Xiao Xun looked at the clock on the wall, "If one clock represents the time in a space, then it means the old man has been to four places. Excluding this room and the world outside, where else?"
He walked to the clock and looked at the four different time flows, one of which was almost static, "Could that be 'Blue Star'?"
He quickly dismissed his guess because 'Blue Star' had time zones, and one clock didn't explain anything.
"This old man died so easily, and didn't tell me anything more. He only left a useless video, and no diary or anything. I have to find everything myself."
Feeling bored, he came out of the divine hall and arrived at Aries in the Twelve Palaces.
Aries was sitting cross-legged at the palace entrance, in meditation. His body could already slowly levitate from the ground, about a foot off the ground.
When Xiao Xun stood at the palace entrance, Aries slowly descended, opened his eyes, and stood up, looking at him.
"Your Majesty the Divine Emperor."
Xiao Xun nodded, surveying the Aries Palace before him. It was a three-hundred-square-meter area. Apart from the obsidian floor, the entire hall contained only a huge throne directly facing the entrance. The backrest of the seat was adorned with a massive ram's head decoration.
Furthermore, a pigeon-blood ruby, the size of an adult man's fist, was inlaid on the ram's forehead.
When sunlight shone through the skylight onto the ruby, combined with the light refracted by the floor, it made the entire Aries Palace shine brilliantly, looking very beautiful.
Xiao Xun walked around the Aries Palace, thinking: Such a large palace with only one seat is too shabby. And although this seat looks big, it's definitely not big enough to lie down in.
Xiao Xun turned to Aries and said, "Among the twelve of you, who is the most powerful?"
Aries looked at the floor, "Your Majesty, we have never competed. I can only say that each has their own strengths. If I had to pick the most powerful, it would be Libra, because the teacher praises him the most on weekdays."
Although it wasn't the answer Xiao Xun had in mind, Libra was definitely one of the candidates in his heart.
"Then let's go and see Libra!"
Xiao Xun meant for Aries to use magic to get them there directly, but Aries merely replied, "Okay," and followed behind Xiao Xun.
Walking to the Libra Palace, it looked much livelier than the Aries Palace. Besides various glass jars, there were also medicine bottles, test tubes, measuring cups, and a pile of equipment for chemical experiments. Kanshu La.
Libra saw Xiao Xun and immediately stopped his experiment. He crossed his hands in front of his chest and saluted Xiao Xun.
"Your Majesty the Divine Emperor."
Xiao Xun nodded, "Are you an alchemist?"
Libra quickly explained, "No, I major in white magic. These are just my little hobbies in my spare time."
Xiao Xun knew it was wrong to move other people's things and was afraid of disturbing the bottles and jars, so he didn't go further inside.
"Then you may continue your work. I should be going now."
After speaking, Xiao Xun left with Aries. He could faintly hear, "Farewell, Your Majesty."
Xiao Xun looked back at the Libra Palace, wondering what the old man was thinking. However, Aries had said that the old man often praised Libra but didn't say he was the strongest.
Arriving at the small square, Xiao Xun looked at the layered mountains in the distance and turned to ask Aries, "Are we within the borders of Saint Roman?"
