Chapter 82: The Price of the Information Age
Half past nine in the evening
Brother Meow's house
At this time, Brother Meow was interacting with water friends in the live broadcast room. Although many sailors expressed their desire to go to "Arad Odyssey" to see it. But Brother Meow said helplessly that the current technology does not support live streaming in this immersive virtual game. But he thinks that this live broadcast will start sooner or later. One year at the earliest, three years at the slower. This live broadcast will be done.
Bell bell bell ......
Brother Meow's phone rang! After he picked it up and took a look, he found that the person who called was Ah Fist! This made Brother Meow feel stunned, he thought that Ah Fist should still be in the game at this time! I didn't expect her to be offline.
"Hey, Ah Fist! It's going offline so soon! Yes? What the? You'll be waiting! Brothers, I have something to deal with here. I'll be back in an hour! That's it first, bye-bye! ”
Brother Meow closed his live broadcast room, but after thinking about it, he left his live broadcast room. Instead, he ran to the kitchen.
Brother Meow: "Hey, Ah Fist!" You can take your time now! ”
Ah Fist: "Oh, okay Brother Meow! Well, when I was playing the game just now, I found that I was completely taught by a clone in my morning warm-up. Even my habitual little movements were brought in. Does this mean that all my memories have been completely controlled by this company? It's so insecure, isn't it? So I want to ask Brother Meow to help me! ”
Brother Meow: "Huh? Can I help you? No, I'm just a player! How can I help? ”
Ah Fist: "Oh, Brother Meow." Don't you know the people in this company! I just wanted to ask you to help me connect with people you know and get to know them. ”
Brother Meow: "Hey, Ah Fist." You're really not too troublesome! Okay, I'll give it a try. If this brother of mine doesn't want to know you, don't say that my meow is not in place! ”
Ah Fist: "Well, don't worry, Brother Meow." I wouldn't think so. ”
Brother Meow: "Hehehe, I believe it." But Ah Fist, I think you're a little too allergic. Let's ask, in this era of intelligence, this person's privacy does not belong to him for a long time. Unless all your work, socialization and entertainment are decoupled from electronics. Otherwise, any information will leave a trace. You know, this is the information age that brings us abundant materials, but also some privacy that we, the users, must be willing to give up. In this era, everyone is naked. It's just that people are used to it, after all, everyone lives a self-centered life. No one cares about strangers' privacy, unless your privacy brings conversation and traffic. Otherwise, who cares who you are! ”
After Ah Quan listened to what Brother Meow said, he began to think thoughtfully. After carefully tasting a product, I felt that Brother Meow's reasoning was very correct. Although I can't say that my worries are superfluous, there is no need to worry too much about anything. Because even if you don't play the game, the information of this messaging app has left traces. Even if you think you've deleted it, you're just deceiving yourself. As long as you want to investigate, there will be technical means to restore those deleted things.
Ah Fist: "Alas...... Brother Meow, you're right! It's that I didn't think about it so much for a while, so deeply! I was probably so frightened by the clones in the game that I forgot what era I lived in. ”
Brother Meow: "Hahaha...... Ah Fist, you are a few years younger than me, why are you so uncalm when accepting new things. ”
Ah Fist: "Alas...... Brother Meow, stop complaining about me! There's someone exactly like you doing what you used to do right in front of your eyes. It's hard to calm down! ”
Brother Meow: "Hahaha, maybe! Oh yes. Now that you've figured it out, are you going to get to know my friend? ”
Ah Fist: "Ah, of course you need to get acquainted!" It's not good to make more friends! ”
Brother Meow: "Uh...... Okay. But I'll tell you in advance, this friend of mine is just the guy in charge of the game script in that company. In other words, he's a screenwriter. So don't expect to get anything out of him. He's very afraid of getting into trouble. ”
Ah Fist: "Hmm! I get Brother Meow. Thank you so much for today! ”
Brother Meow: "Hey, no thanks. ”
Ah Fist: "Hehe, okay. Then I won't bother you anymore, Brother Meow. Good night! ”
Brother Meow: "Uh-huh, good night, good night!" ”
Honk......
After this meow brother hung up Ah Fist's phone, he immediately walked to Gua Zai. He found that Guazi was still in a state of playing. I don't know if Gua Zai at this time knows that Ah Quan has left!
"Hey, this kid slept so soundly! Ah...... I hope you don't play until midnight! After this meow brother finished saying this, he immediately returned to his live broadcast room and started to broadcast again. When the time reached about eleven o'clock, the melon boy finally withdrew from the game. After he had disposed of the equipment on his body, he went straight to the kitchen to get something to eat. And our Brother Meow classmates are still live streaming at this moment!
…………
Half past ten in the morning
A private room in a restaurant
It's a new day!
For an anchor like Brother Meow who likes to broadcast live until the second half of the night, it is already early in the morning to get up this morning. Not to mention what time to get out of bed at a regular time. Early this morning, Brother Meow received a call from Li Jiankang. He said that he was told to arrive at a certain restaurant before half past ten to have something important to say, and he was not allowed to be late. Although Brother Meow is very unhappy to get up so early, but for the sake of his good friends. He had to get up early to clean himself up, and after getting it done, he went out to take a taxi to the address that Li Jiankang had said. As a result, when Brother Meow arrived at the place, he found that he was the first to arrive. This makes Brother Meow very unhappy! But there is nothing to be done!
Click!
Someone pushed the door in, and when this meow brother looked up, he saw Li Jiankang's not very greasy face.
"Yo, Meow! You're here early! Well...... Not bad, not bad. What a good brother! Hehehe......"
"Cut! What nonsense you're talking about, Akon. If I hadn't treated you as a brother and killed me, I wouldn't have come here at this time! Ah, now that you're here. Then let's talk about it directly. ”
"Wow, I'm in such a hurry today! Okay, then I'll stop inking and just throw dry goods at you. Let's take a look at these pages! It's all over here! ”
"I'll ...... Isn't it, Akang! You actually called me early in the morning just to show me these pages? Make no mistake about you! ”
"Well, yes! I asked you to come here to show you these pages! If you don't want to see it, you can listen to me. ”
"Shhh...... Oops hey! Meow: I'm sick today. I can't see things clearly. Let's ask Brother Akang to tell me about it! ”
"Ahh I speak, I speak! Ahem, in fact, these pages are written with information about the advancement of the three main missions. Needless to say, the information of this Sky City, our brothers have been advancing. Naturally, there is no need to say anything. As for the advancement information of the other two main missions, it is necessary for us to know. Because the situation in the Snow Mountain and the Dark City is not optimistic! It is estimated that when the plot advances to a certain extent, a large number of difficult side quests will be released. to help the main players in Snow Mountain, Dark City. So prepare in advance and prepare as it should be! ”
"That, Akan! Wait! Did you just say something that you guessed on your own, or did you hear it from someone insider? ”
"Huh? Meow, that's what you're referring to! ”
"Hey, of course you're referring to the side quests you mentioned! Is this a possibility? How did I think after listening to it, this is unlikely! ”
"Huh? Hahaha...... Meow, don't be in a hurry to deny what I said now. Wait until I'm done talking about the situation in the snowy mountains and the dark city. It's not too late for you to say no! ”
"Oh, well! Please continue! ”
"Hehehe, let's start with the snow mountain. Now, the Bantu have invaded the three large cities of the Duchy of Belmar and the twelve villages that belong to it. Players who go to the snowy mountains to do the main quest will find it difficult to play the most role in this kind of war that raises the strength of the whole clan. But after a few days of strategy, now the players have reluctantly recaptured Ammar City and the three villages. However, there is a lack of all kinds of supplies in this big city, so the players on this side of the snowy mountain have to separate some people to go to Hutton Marr to transport all kinds of supplies. Come and restore the city as soon as possible. But where are the Bantu people numerous, they attack the big city, and at the same time plunder the supplies transported. This makes the players who do the Snow Mountain quest miserable! So, I judge, it won't take more than two days. This official will take action to attract some of the players who are crowded into Sky City to go to other tasks. ”
"Wow! I didn't expect the snow mountain to be so exciting, it's a real war! Hahaha, Akang. If it's really what you say. I'm going to play the first time to go to the snowy mountains where to do the task. You know, this hen profession is her stage on the battlefield! ”
"Hehe, yes! Oops, then I'll wait and see! This snowy mountain is over, and it's time to talk about the situation in Dark City. According to the previous plot, the changes in this dark city were all due to the transfer of the apostles. And what the current game setting is, we don't know at all. Because according to the information I have, the dark elf alchemist Morgan is not dead, but he is not much better now. Many players will be scolded by Morgan for no reason when they accompany Morgan to collect mission samples. This bad-tempered player is directly involved with this NPC Morgan. And players with a good temper are not good at doing tasks. This makes the progress of the mission on the Dark City side unexpectedly zero progress! Alas...... I really don't know what to say! ”
"Huh? Zero progress!! It's unlikely! It's been a few days of playtime, and even if it's a snail crawl, it shouldn't be without any progress! Akon, you're exaggerating! ”
"Hmph, you don't believe it! I'll tell you, when I first learned about it, I didn't believe it. But when I saw the underground map of the Dark City, I felt that there was no possibility that those players would make any progress, it was true! ”
"Oh? Do you mean that the players who go to the Dark City to do the main quest are limited by the terrain that keeps the progress of the main quest from proceeding? This...... Is it possible? ”
"How is this not possible? Imagine meow, meow. When you walk for a long time in an underground cavern to a place just to collect a sample. Where do you think you can be happy to go there? Of course, you won't be angry. Walking through this long passage is a waste of time! So, I guess those players are likely to be tempered by this long passage. It's time to do the task! ”
"Huh! Chance?! Ah...... If that's the case, it really explains why they're making zero progress. But even if there's no progress on the Dark City's side, then there's nothing to do on our side, right? Do you think those dark elves will welcome more adventurers into their territory? ”
"Hehehe, Meow. This may also be a good idea! After all, the Dark City is suffering from the plague. This will be solved sooner and ended sooner! ”
"Hmph, Akang. You're really reluctant! ”
"Hehehe, it's a bit reluctant! But let's be honest, of the current progress of the three main quests, only Sky Castle seems to be the fastest. ”
"Well, of course. It's all your brother's work, if you hadn't managed the seventh and eighth layers. These other players may not be able to see the ninth layer in the Year of the Monkey! Alas? Wait a minute. You seem to have just said, 'Looks like the fastest'! What do you mean by that? Do you want to deny that your efforts have not yielded results? ”
"Ha, my efforts are real, and denial must not be denied. But in the past few days, we have been playing from the second layer to the ninth layer, but we haven't even touched the skin of the main line! This is a fact, and we must admit it. Therefore, the main line advancement on our side of Sky City is only to the extent that we have just stepped into one foot. Compared to the other two major branches, it is not far ahead. ”
"Uh...... Is it? I think the main line advancement of this Sky City should not be as unbearable as you said! Oh yes, Akang. I've heard you say before, you know something from a ghost on the eighth floor. So from this point of view, we are at least much stronger than Snow Mountain and Dark City! ”
"Meow. What the ghost said had no direct connection to the main story. So I'm afraid where can I get the main clue of this Sky City on the ninth floor! The latest chapter of "This is not the Arad Ya Paw Book House I know" is free to read for the first time.
