Act 109 Billions of apricots
Akane Koike drank "The Black Curtain of the Universe", and at first she didn't feel anything.
However, when she came back to her senses, she found that she had fallen into darkness.
It was darker than the darkness you felt when you closed your eyes on a dark night when you couldn't see your fingers.
Because, even at that time, the so-called darkness is still not pure, whether it is the optic nerve or the electrical signals processed by the brain, there are noise that are usually ignored, and these noises make the picture that should be extremely dark no longer dark, adding a lot of color.
This absolute darkness, if you ask Koike Akane to be afraid?
She was a little scared.
But, instead of being scared, she knew she had more to do.
Because, now she is no longer the current herself.
She is no longer herself, she carries the hope of all mankind, and indeed the whole solar system.
At the beginning, she didn't know that the choice she made would have such a big impact, but now everything has settled.
Some things are destined for her to deal with personally, and she will not back down, but will choose to move forward bravely, all the way forward and forward.
And what can be explored in this darkness?
There's a lot to explore.
The monster potion does not give Akane Koike physical help, but also a lot of soul tools.
Although she is only aware of the dark curtain of this universe now, the tools she has made to assist herself can also be embodied here.
Can't see anything here?
Not even the light.
Then let there be light.
Akane Koike pulled out something that resembled a light bulb.
This thing is not a light bulb in the traditional sense, but a light bulb that will pop up in the mind when "Smart Ikyu" comes up with a strange solution in the cartoon.
The light emitted by this light bulb is not light in the physical sense.
It's just to illuminate Akane Koike's mind.
Although it is impossible for it to illuminate the dark curtain of the real universe, the effect of "The Black Curtain of the Universe" achieved by taking monster potions is actually based on brain calculations.
And this wisdom bulb, if it can be lit, it will be the self-operation mode of this "Dark Curtain of the Universe".
Although, these patterns, even the one who recorded the existence of all this, may not be able to name them.
But since he chose to give all this to humans, it shows that he has full trust in them.
I believe that human beings can understand the secrets.
And Xiao Chi Qian, everything she has relied on to grow up to now is based on her own brain, and she also has an extraordinary understanding of everything she has.
And the way she lit the light bulb was to keep thinking about the problem and see it all go smoothly.
Xiao Chi Qian's brain gradually surged out, and this power was extremely surging.
She turned out more and more tools, although these tools looked delicate, but if they were separated from Koike Akane herself, then they would be useless.
In the midst of the darkness, Akane Koike began to work.
She tirelessly starts with a little bit of detail and cracks it little by little.
Although she seems to be orderly here, the whole of humanity is not so beautiful.
"The Dark Curtain of the Universe" is like an unprecedented virus, sweeping through the brains of all human beings who have redeemed this potion.
They had no option to exit, their minds trapped in the darkness.
Although many of these humans, in normal times, claim to be able to think rationally.
But when they really need to think independently, they find that their thinking is useless.
Their so-called independent thinking is nothing more than a porter-style independent thinking, which makes a second thought about what others have thought.
And during this time, if there is no one to help them think, then their heads will seem to be down.
And all the computing power of the brains of these people who redeemed "The Black Curtain of the Universe" was swallowed up by this "The Black Curtain of the Universe".
Their brains are all used to simulate the darkness of the dayless day.
When the people trapped in this shady curtain are still relatively small, the problem is not big.
Gradually, however, things changed.
It didn't take long for those who didn't redeem The Dark Curtain of the Universe to discover that there was a problem with the entire virtual world of the monster store.
In the beginning, it was just a decrease in realism.
However, an even more serious accident occurred immediately afterward.
For example, in a world that could have been fully three-dimensional, there are suddenly many paper people.
For example, the information that was originally visually included in the high ground, such as the distance and proximity, suddenly changed, and the so-called perspective suddenly disappeared.
These may seem like minor problems, but they are not.
Why?
Because, they are all directly connected through the brain.
In such a state of direct brain connection, they are actually extremely fragile, and any kind of abnormal impact may cause damage and destruction to their brains.
Although, in the old days, this kind of injury was a vegetative person, and it didn't take long to have to be put in a small box, the kind that couldn't be saved.
Although, in the new era, this kind of damage can still be saved by using the corresponding genetic agents.
However, of course, people who have brain downtime can't use genetic drugs on their own, so they need offline physical help.
Physical help is simple.
Because, nowadays, almost everyone has superpowers, and it seems that as long as you do this, you can find everyone perfectly and seamlessly, but is this really the case?
The answer is no.
Thanks to the internet system of the Monster Store, the traditional real world is gradually replaced.
As a result, megacities built in the real world are already on the verge of disintegration.
The vast majority of people choose to leave the so-called megacities.
They go to different places.
Some returned to their hometowns and lived an idyllic life.
Of course, this kind of idyll is not the same as imagined.
Those primitive creatures don't need human care, and humans don't want to take care of them.
Even, some people who originally liked all this ended up returning to the countryside, just looking for a place to bury themselves, and then began to connect to the virtual world of the monster store system.
After all, while the idyllic set looks interesting, how can it actually be fun in the virtual world?
And these people who are keen to bury their bodies are already a little difficult to find.
But what's even harder is that it's harder to find people who do these things in the real world.
Whether it's Keisuke Tokugawa or Yusa, whether it's the original monster suit user or a member of the monster team.
Many of these people are now trapped in the virtual world.
It makes sense to want them to do some tasks in the virtual world.
However, if it were in the real world, it would be very difficult to say.
However, in this situation, if you don't deal with it quickly, it doesn't seem to work.
Because, more and more people are going down because of problems in the virtual world.
Humans who are not connected to the virtual world are also very difficult to find.
If there is a place with the most people who do not connect, it is in the Arctic Circle.
The reason why the people who came here with Aragaki in the Arctic Circle did not intervene in the virtual world was because many people could only get the pleasure in the virtual world, and they could experience it in the real world.
For example, the so-called Arctic Circle Parliament, this organization is, in a way, the organization that many people dream of.
Because this organization can not only influence the world, but also allow everyone to do even what they don't want to do.
In the past, only a small number of such rights could be exercised.
It's the people who started out to get monster points and make the whole world weird.
If we say, those who become presidents through the celebrity draft, are in some ways just a person who has the right to exercise this right in a very short time.
And they are capable of exercising it from generation to generation.
Because the so-called power comes from two aspects, one is the right of personnel and the other is the right of finance.
One is the power to get people to go anywhere, and the other is the power to get some kind of satisfaction for that person.
Aragaki was able to make those who originally had two powers listen to him.
It is because the so-called financial power, when it comes to him, is no longer the so-called currency, but has become a monster point.
Only with monster points can they redeem the abilities they want.
They can survive forever.
In the past, the tools they used to exercise power, no matter what kind of currency in this world, could not do this, and in such a state, they could only use monster points.
Aragaki passed the monster point and obtained the personnel rights.
He can influence people all over the world to do what he wants them to do.
And when Aragaki left the earth, these rights he had were naturally released and released to these people in the Arctic Circle.
Whether it's Keisuke Tokugawa, or Yusa, or Akane Koike, even if it's an apricot.
They were all ordinary people until then.
And the people who assist them are ordinary people.
How could they suddenly devote themselves to the virtual world when they suddenly received power that only the top capitalists could exercise?
And those who stayed in the Arctic Circle and gained this power for a long, long time are almost in their third digs, they are not very used to the so-called virtual world, so they also stay in the real world.
In fact, there are many people of their age who are not suitable for the virtual world.
But just like all the stores, after they started to scan the code to pay, there are many elderly people who don't like to use this kind of thing, but they still have to force themselves to use it.
They don't have the ability to choose, while a small percentage do.
That's the difference.
However, it is really difficult to get this little bit of people to wake up the human beings on the entire planet.
Yusa looked at the virtual network world that was losing its vitality little by little.
He gritted his teeth and made a decision, to wake up and do it immediately.
Even if there is no one left, he has to insist on doing it himself.
And Keisuke Tokugawa next to him, although he didn't look very reliable, he exhaled and said, "Who looks down on it?" As long as you're good, can't I do anything? ”
The two of them glanced at each other, and Yusa said, "Since you have such an idea, let's get started." ”
After saying that, Yusa jumped and entered the air at an altitude of 100 meters diagonally, and then Tokugawa Keisuke also left with a swaying heat wave.
Only Kyoko remained here, and she sat there not knowing what to think.
She wanted to help, too, but couldn't.
Because, although she has almost unlimited vitality, but other than that, she can't have any other superpowers.
However, she still thought of something, she took out her wood knife, held it behind her back, and slashed it from head to head.
A large amount of blood gushed out.
And it didn't take long for two apricots to appear.
The two new apricots also began to repeat the action of the apricots just now.
Four.
Eight.
Sixteen.
Thirty-two ......
On this North Pole, in addition to polar bears, the second most abundant species has appeared, and that is apricots......
And the number of apricots is still increasing.
Gradually, the apricots exceeded 10,000, exceeded 100,000, exceeded 10,000, exceeded 10,000,000......
At a glance, the entire Arctic Circle is densely packed with apricots.
In such a case, the apricot continues to split.
Finally, when there was no more bare land in the Arctic Circle, Apricot said, that's all I could do.
Billions of apricots said......
Connected to the monster network together.
In an instant, all the mistakes due to insufficient computing power were corrected.
And those who were in a state of confusion and were about to fall into a state of collapse also woke up.
That's when they realized what was going on.
It's just that they wonder why there are people everywhere on the streets who look the same, dress the same, speak the same voice, and look the same everywhere.
This......
They looked at each other and wondered if they were still in a bad state and not getting better.
And another thing that Apricot did was to persuade these people who were still immersed in virtual games to leave.
Let them also wake up those who are down because of the collapse of the system.
But these people don't want to leave.
Where in the real world is there a virtual world is fun.
Thereupon......
The apricots picked up the wood knives together.
As long as you don't want to go, there will be a firewood knife to send you away.
In an instant, the virtual worlds with different styles have all become the same horror movie-like picture.
Behind everyone, there was a girl with a bad expression and a firewood knife chasing after her, chasing after her...... (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
