At nine o'clock the next morning, Lin Chi, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes, turned over in the warm quilt, and was about to sleep again, but saw the mobile phone screen on the bedside table light up.

"Hmm......"

He stretched out his hand and fumbled it, picked up the mobile phone and held it up in front of him, after unlocking it with his fingerprint, he pressed the projection button, and in the air above the mobile phone, a small holographic projection text immediately appeared:

"You have twenty new messages."

"Oh......" Lin Chi was about to put down his phone in a daze, and then suddenly came to his senses:

"Huh?"

For a user like him, who uses mobile phones very infrequently, receiving 20 messages in one night is simply a fantasy.

Lin Chi squinted his eyes and checked the information he received, and under the spam messages such as "special promotions" and "selling insurance" that appeared every day, the first thing that appeared was a message from Zhou Tianhao:

"We've just found some not-so-good content, so you'd better stop playing Paradise at War."

Seeing this information, Lin Chi casually dialed it back and asked, "What did you find?" ”

It stands to reason that the information obtained by the Authority's investigation of game companies generally cannot be leaked. But Zhou Tianhao's guy obviously trusted Lin Chi very much, and his deliberately lowered voice rang from his mobile phone:

"This 'Pulse Entertainment Company' is not spun off from Ubisoft, it used to be engaged in the military industry. It's the 'tech of the future', you've probably heard of it, right? ”

"Oh, the one who developed military combat robots?" Lin Chi put his phone beside him and sat up while rubbing his eyes.

He had seen in the news about the "Future Technology Company", a large multinational military conglomerate headquartered in the Arctic Ocean, which also cooperates with many countries to manufacture weapons parts, and also has a cooperative relationship with the famous Chinese arms manufacturer "North Industries Group".

Of course, it is impossible for the detailed data of cutting-edge weapons of various countries to flow into the hands of future technology companies, which mainly process leftovers of weapons and equipment, and at the same time are also independently developing and manufacturing some low-cost automatic combat robots and other equipment.

"yes, that's the company." Zhou Tianhao secretly lowered his voice: "We secretly eavesdropped on their internal communications to get this news. ”

"So what are you going to do?" Lin Chi looked at the familiar face projected above the phone: "I don't think you guys can do anything about Pulse Entertainment." ”

"Yes, even if Pulse Entertainment is a military enterprise, we can't do anything. No one has stipulated that military companies are not allowed to develop games, not to mention that our news was obtained by illegal means such as eavesdropping......"

Speaking of this, Zhou Tianhao sighed, and the expression projected was very depressed: "I'm just reminding you, it's best not to play recently, God knows what Future Technology intends to do, maybe it's experimenting with players." ”

"Even if it's an experiment, they can't do any damage to the player." Lin Chi's words were chiseled.

After problems with the first generation of brain-computer interfaces, which caused several "pioneers" to go insane, countries around the world enacted stricter rules, reduced the power of the second-generation interfaces, and added impregnable safety locks to gaming warehouses. By the way, in all brain imaging games, the "sudden death" system that automatically disconnects when the player suffers excessive pain has been forcibly added.

The game warehouse and interface produced under the new standard can be said to be absolutely safe, and unless the player dies to enter the data channel, there will be no accidents at all.

Speaking of the accident that happened while playing the game, Lin Chi suddenly remembered the "psychedelic" incident that Zhou Tianhao said last time, so he asked, "Have you investigated anything about that psychedelic agent?" ”

"No, but there are two new cases, I don't know what they ate and became crazy, we have sent the patient's body fluid samples to the National Toxicology Center, and now they are being tested." Zhou Tianhao shook his head.

"Are those crazy people talking nonsense?" Lin Chi asked curiously.

"Yes, they showed symptoms of manic psychosis and had to be tied to bed." Zhou Tianhao said: "They seem to think that the world is fake, but the game world is real, and they still shout nonsense words like 'creator'. ”

"Oh, Creator......" Lin Chi looked up at the ceiling thoughtfully.

"What's the matter, do you know anything?" Zhou Tianhao immediately asked.

"It's nothing, if I find out anything, I'll let you know right away." Lin Chi stretched as he spoke, and said, "Goodbye." ”

After hearing this end keyword, the phone automatically cut off the call. Lin Chi opened the curtains, looked at the cloudless clear sky, recalled what Zhou Tianhao had just said, and the expression on his face became serious.

- Players go crazy with drugs, could it be that those "creator" tricks again? Have the AI in those game worlds extended their tentacles to the real world?

Although the probability is very low, it is not completely impossible for the AI to take control of the human body, and if those players suddenly go crazy, it is not because of mental problems, but because of a different "personality......

Since there is too little information now, Lin Chi can't come to any conclusions. After all, when he couldn't see the appearance of the patients, he didn't know what those people looked like when they became ill.

However, there may be a way to see those patients through the camera.

Thinking of this, Lin Chi returned to bed and picked up his mobile phone, and was about to contact Frankenstein, but found that the remaining dozen or so messages in the mobile phone were all sent by the virus:

- Found the entrance.

- Help.

- I escaped.

- No re-entry.

……

Looking at a bunch of messages on his mobile phone that seemed to be talking to himself, Lin Chi sent a voice message over: "What are you doing?" ”

Two seconds later, Frankenstein's relentless synth voice rang out: "Please ignore the message, I didn't know you were sleeping." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sleeping a little longer than average." Lin Chi teased.

Frankenstein ignored Lin Chi's boring topic, and went straight to the point: "I can't continue to investigate. ”

"What's wrong? Did Pulse Entertainment find you? Lin Chi asked.

"They installed antivirus software that targeted me. As soon as I was near any of the data ports of Pulse Entertainment, I was hunted down by those software. Frankenstein's voice became quieter, as if he was feeling a little down.

Seeing that the virus seemed to be depressed, Lin Chi smiled, looked at the clear sky outside the window, and suddenly asked, "Do you want to go out with me?" ”

Lin Chi, who was a little tired from playing games for a long time, had planned to go out in an exoskeleton today to relax his body and mind. Although you can't prepare a reliable body for the robot, it's okay to take the guy out with your phone.

“……”

After Lin Chi sent out the invitation, Frankenstein was silent for a few seconds, as if he was thinking, and finally spoke after a while: "Okay, but please don't connect to public IFI, there is antivirus software." ”

"Ha, then get ready, we'll leave later." Lin Chi smiled.
