Opening the door of No. 3501, Lin Chi walked into the living room, took off his brown coat and threw it on the sofa, and strode to the corner of the living room. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

A large machine with a silver-gray shell, quietly leaning against the wall, nearly three meters long, the streamlined shell is equipped with a red soft chaise longue, and the chaise longue has its own restraints to fix the limbs and body.

If it weren't for the "Pulse Entertainment" logo painted on the casing, it would have been misused as an interrogation device.

However, even if you know that it is just a game console, its internal structure still makes many ordinary people talk about it:

On the upper side of the back of the chaise longue, where the back of the user's head should be touched, there is a pitch-black metal ring, and in the center of the ring, a sharp cold light faintly flashes.

This is not a holographic game device in the traditional sense, but an intrabrain imaging game warehouse. And the ring on the back of the chair is what a stupid chef calls the "back of the head intubation" position.

Lin Chi yawned, opened the shell of the game compartment, pressed the thumb of his right hand on the small screen in the corner of the game compartment, and scanned his fingerprints.

I saw a few lines of dark green text on the small LCD screen inside the machine:

"Identity detection is complete. User unique ID: 410-I8DA21SSSR. ”

"Welcome back, Mr. Lin."

After completing the inspection, Lin Chi quickly switched the "Sword Blade" currently used in the game warehouse to the "War Paradise" that he had just downloaded.

Even though he usually seems to be lazy, his other name is quite famous in the gaming world. At the beginning of the test, "War Paradise" took the initiative to send him an invitation.

In other words, Lin Chi doesn't need to make an appointment at all, and he can directly enter the game.

After relaxing his body and lying on the soft chair, after fixing his body, Lin Chi pressed the button on the armrest and slowly closed his eyes.

Airplanes!

The roar exploded in his consciousness, and the chaotic patch of color, which was spliced together by countless colors, instantly occupied all his sight.

"Start doing a physical function test." An emotionless mechanical female voice whispered in her ear.

The access to the port did not bring any pain, but it only made Lin Chi awake dozens of times, and his five senses became sharper than ever, and he could even hear the sound of blood flowing in his body.

Anyone who has never played an in-brain imaging game will never be able to experience this indescribable and wonderful feeling.

"Say more than three syllables so that the system can reconfirm your identity." The mechanical female voice reminded.

Hearing this, the young man, who had always been listless, finally raised the corners of his mouth and showed a smile:

"I'm coming." He said.

The picture in front of him was like a kaleidoscope flowing wildly, and Lin Chi's consciousness and various feelings were pulled from the real world to the virtual realm by the game warehouse of the imaging game in his brain.

He knows that his body in the real world is basically equivalent to falling into a "vegetative" state, and even if he is cut by a thousand cuts, he will not feel or react at all.

Of course, if you die in the real world, your character will also be "permanently disconnected".

With the activation of the sensory isolation system, the ever-changing picture in front of him was frozen in gray and white background board, followed by a few lines of small text used to reconfirm the player's identity:

Name: Lin Chi.

Gender: Male.

Age: 24 years old.

Occupation: Unemployed.

"Do I have a career now?" Lin Chi complained.

Then, he was soon faced with a new problem:

――What should you name your character?

Lin Chi is very sure that he suffers from the disease of "difficulty in choosing a name". He's glad he's not a fiction writer, otherwise just naming his characters would have killed and injured his brain cells.

"Hmmm......"

After thinking for a moment, he decisively took his eyes off the input field and adopted the "random naming method" that he used to use often.

With virtual hands, under the background board, floating in front of the "keyboard" a few random taps. The female voice that only listened to the prompt sounded again:

"Are you sure you want to use this character name? Please note that once you have decided, you cannot change it. ”

Hearing this, Lin Chi moved his gaze back and stared at the name he had just typed randomly:

Countercurrent.

Seeing that this random name didn't seem to be unpleasant, Lin Chi decisively pressed it to confirm.

Detection, the name can be used. Welcome, Countercurrent. ”

After choosing the name, the next step is the face-pinching session.

Lin Chi's body, which was originally in a translucent state, suddenly disappeared, and his vision changed to a "God's perspective" from top to bottom.

What appeared in his sight was the most familiar body, which had been used for twenty-four years, except that the clothes had been changed into a very old-fashioned gray civilian clothes, which were completely different from his appearance in the real world.

Lin Chi controlled the non-existent "eyes", turned around his character, and began to adjust the character's appearance.

For reasons that everyone understands, in an intrabrain imaging game, the gender of the game character must be the same as the player's real gender. Things like "Shemale" have also officially withdrawn from the stage of history.

In addition to the fact that they cannot change their gender, players can make any changes to their character's appearance.

Most players are reluctant to expose their true appearance in the game, and finally have the opportunity to transform into a handsome guy and a beautiful woman, and the vast majority of people will shape the character image in a good direction.

Of course, there are also some weirdos or curiosity lovers with unique tastes, who will make the characters look weird.

Regarding his virtual appearance in the game, Lin Chi was not interested in changing too much, but only lengthened his hair a little and added a scar on his cheek to avoid being exactly the same as the real appearance.

Then, he suddenly discovered the problem:

"Why does this person look like he has kidney deficiency?"

Lin Chi noticed that his virtual characters also inherited the "fine traditions" of the real world.

This character looks like he is only in his early twenties, but he doesn't match the sunshine and vigor that young people should have, and he looks decadent. Although the appearance is not ugly, it looks more like a zombie than a living person.

Realizing this, Lin Chi also tried to make his character more energetic, after all, the more low-key the appearance in the game, the better, too much personality image, easy to attract the fire of other players.

Obviously, though, it's not that simple.

After painstaking adjustments for a while, Lin Chi was frustrated to find that no matter how his character appearance was adjusted, even if he made a big man with a two-meter-tall tiger's back and a bear's waist, he still looked listless......

"Forget it, so be it."

Lin Chi reluctantly restored the character shape to its original state.

Looking at the virtual character who looked similar to himself, but with a few more scars, he decisively stopped adjusting and chose "Confirm" in the dialog box floating next to the character's head.

"Character created."

The emotionless female voice sounded again, and a dialog box with the title "War Paradise Closed Beta Announcement" popped up.

Lin Chi quickly skimmed through the content of the announcement, ignored a lot of nonsense that didn't matter to the players, and directly focused on the key points below:

- The game is currently in beta and only has access to some maps, as well as the first game mode: Deathmatch. Other maps and game modes will be available in future updates.

In deathmatch mode, one hundred players will join each round and no teams will be possible. Players who cannot be resurrected after being killed are counted as direct defeat.

There are three ways to win in deathmatch mode:

Killer - Kill at least seven players and survive when all other players die.

Raiders - Reach 1000 or more Domination Points and kill the final boss in the map.

Ruler - Replace the Supreme Leader in the map and ascend to the position of ruler.

When any player meets the winning criteria, the game ends immediately.

Please note that if no player meets any of the three winning conditions at the end of the time limit, the game will end.

At the end of a single game, each player will be scored according to their performance in the game, and loot and various rewards will be distributed. The winner will receive an additional prize.

"Oh? Is it to throw a hundred people into a map and have a good time......"

After reading the introduction to the deathmatch mode, Lin Chi quickly understood what he had to do, and then went straight to the next step:

"Start matching, you're now in the queue, using random map mode by default. Maps are being randomly selected. ”

Accompanied by an emotionless female voice, a series of map names appeared in front of his eyes, and he began to switch rapidly:

Royal Hunting Grounds.

Primeval jungle.

Ruins of Mars.

The wreckage of a nuclear explosion.

Museum of Antiquity.

State Women's Prison.

……

Looking at the imaginative map names that flashed from his sight, a sense of foreboding slowly rose in his heart.

After waiting for about ten seconds, a bright red name finally froze in front of me:

Welcome to the City of Chaos!

"What about the state women's prison? I'm showing me this when I'm taking my pants off? ”

Complaining, Lin Chi has already begun to quickly browse the map below:

City of Chaos.

Map size: Medium.

City of Chaos is an industrialized city in the Pacific Ocean, controlled by multiple consortia and organizations, where cultures of various countries mingle.

The city is technologically advanced, law and order is weak, and crime is rife. Those who choose to develop here will face unprecedented opportunities and dangers.

Tip: Find the speakeasy in the City of Chaos, where there might be something you're interested in.

Staring at the map of the irregular islands below the text, Lin Chi didn't say much. It looks like your first battle in War Paradise will take place on an open city map similar to GTA.

――Let's see if there is "that kind of AI" in this game.

As the text bar disappeared, the scene in front of Lin Chi's eyes began to darken rapidly. Then, he heard the system's chime again.

This time it wasn't the cold female voice, but a very exaggerated and infectious male voice:

"Welcome...... War Paradise! ”
