In less than three hours, the latest virtual online game 'New Era' will be officially launched. Zhang Bai was bored lying on the seat in the room, and the empty home was only the ticking sound of the clock.

Zhang Bai glanced at the clock on the wall again, opened the second bag of melon seeds, and there was already a large handful of melon seed shells on the table. Next to the melon seed shells, there are also a few lunch boxes that have been emptied. While knocking on the melon seeds, he recalled the experience of the past six months in his mind.

About ten months ago,When he took a week's vacation from the university to go to a mysterious stronghold to carry out the commission,The commission is to kill a certain underworld underground force leader,On the fourth day of the vacation, he found the opportunity to successfully complete the task,When he was about to return to school,Suddenly received a call from his father,On the phone,Father asked Zhang Bai to provide him with a game plan and repeatedly emphasized that it must be a game designed by himself。 Although he felt a little strange at the time, Zhang Bai still agreed, he knew that one of his father's identities was an online game designer, and he only felt that it was probably because his father was exhausted that he suddenly came to his son to find an idea. Next, it didn't take long for Zhang Bai to put the dream of the Three Kingdoms that had always existed in his heart on paper and passed it on to his father.

After a few more months, my father called again.

"Xiaobai, there is something going on at home, you are ready to come back immediately." ’

Except for a simple greeting, the content of the phone call is just that. Zhang Bai didn't think much about it, thinking that there was something urgent at home, so he hurried home, but he didn't worry too much, on the one hand, because his father's tone was calm, and at the same time, he was relieved of his father's strength.

When approaching his house, Zhang Bai keenly noticed that someone was secretly watching everyone who approached his house. Zhang Bai quietly avoided the watchers and sneaked in without alerting anyone. When I returned home, my parents were not there, and judging from the dust at home, it should have been about a month since I left. Zhang Bai saw some secret codes left by his father in his room, which was a kind of code that only existed between their father and son, and after cracking it, Zhang Bai came to an ordinary hillside and found a game seed from a secret place.

With the development of network technology, virtual online games have long been realized, programmers only need to build a world framework and set the rules of the game to form a game seed, and then the game seed can learn and improve independently, and finally develop a unique game world. And the inventor of this technology is Zhang Bai's father himself. Of course, although this technology has existed for many years, it has not been fully opened to the public, and it seems that there are still hidden dangers that have not been properly solved. However, Zhang Bai also learned a little from his father that he didn't care very much, and he was not interested in games.

Zhang Bai found a convenient location near his home, bought a room to live in, and found a computer to let the seeds start to grow. He didn't call his father, the watchers around the house gave him enough reason, he believed his father, the old man was not just a programmer, he didn't believe that anyone could let him exist like that and no news would disappear without any news, the only explanation was that the father chose to leave on his own, avoiding everyone's eyes including his son. This kind of thing is not the first time in his more than 20 years of life, the only thing that makes Zhang Bai a little worried is that this time his father actually disappeared with his mother, but he still needs to figure out what happened, and the only clue left for him is this game seed, he is going to wait for the game to grow and then take a look.

In the following time, he spent time researching the game day and night, observing all the developments in the game. This is really the game about the Three Kingdoms designed by Zhang Bai himself,The game process is like a winding river,Washing the sediment along the coast and constantly correcting the route forward,In addition to the game graphics are exceptionally good,This game is nothing peculiar,What really surprised Zhang Bai is,Since the first simulation clearance,The simulation intelligence of the game actually began to borrow the speaker of the home computer to communicate with him,Although it is all related to how to revise the game data, But the fact that the other party seemed to be able to fully understand his words still made Zhang Bai slightly stunned.

My father said that the technology of game seeds involves artificial intelligence, and the relevant qualifications are extremely strict, and the most important one is that it is strictly forbidden to connect to the Internet. ’

Zhang Bai glanced at the network cable that was plugged into the computer, and after hesitating for a while, he still didn't pull it out. In this way, this virtual reality online game called "New Era" was simulated over and over again in front of Zhang Bai, constantly deducing and developing, and it was still within the framework of Zhang Bai's design at first, but then it has gradually plumped up a full game world.

At first, Zhizhi was just chatting about game-related content, until a certain moment it seemed that he suddenly opened up the second pulse of Ren Du, and in the humble house, a person and a computer became friends who comforted each other's loneliness. In the end, the content of the game appeared in Zhang Bai's dream, and the various settings in the game, intentionally or unintentionally, had already been deeply engraved in Zhang Bai's mind.

Until today.

In the morning.

"Xiaobai, today I am going to conduct the last simulation exercise, and after completion, the server will be launched at 12 o'clock tonight, you are ready." A girl, like an elf, appeared on the computer screen.

'Yes, Mistress Nuwa. Zhang Bai replied with a grin. Nuwa is the name of Zhizhi to herself, and at the same time, at her strong request, Zhang Bai also called it the same, "But do you really need other auxiliary equipment?" ’

'Yes. Nuwa is very humane and sells a cute, "The clover scar on your hand is the device to enter the game, and you just need to look there after 12 o'clock to enter the game." ’

'Gaze? ’

Yes, in fact, you can move your mind, and you are afraid that you will not get used to it. ’

Zhang Bai glanced suspiciously at the clover logo on his wrist, which had been engraved on his wrist through seeds under Nuwa's guidance: 'Okay. ’

Then it was a long day of waiting.

At the same time, waiting with Zhang Bai are countless players across China who are attracted by this game. What Zhang Bai didn't know was that at this time, the whole country had already exploded, and countless men and women, from the old woman to the young children, how many families and the whole family participated in the attention, just waiting for the world's first virtual reality online game to be launched. The reason why there is such a sensational effect is not only because this is the world's first holographic simulation online game, but more importantly, the strong publicity of this game, as the spokesperson is the Minister of Hua'an! I don't know how many pairs of eyeballs were shocked when the propaganda came out, this game seems to be born with a mysterious veil and has a fatal attraction, so in just one month, it has boiled on the Internet, and the topics of online and offline people are not far from today's day, and the topic of the new era is highly anticipated.

Time passed quietly, and it was 12 o'clock in a blink of an eye.

Zhang Bai couldn't wait to look at the clover on his wrist. In the next moment, he disappeared into the room.
