Chapter 1: The only boss in the world
In the year 2045, in the square of a city in China, a huge cylindrical mechanical device is erected in the middle, except for the mechanical part at the bottom, the whole upper part is transparent, and it is filled with a light blue liquid, like a healing pod in the comics.
In this device, a girl in a white leotard is curled up, the girl is motionless as if she is asleep, and a huge tube is connected to her back, and if you look closely, you will find that the pipe and the girl's body are constantly being skipped by codes.
It's such a thing standing here, and the passers-by around it are no longer surprised, after all, this thing has been standing here for ten years.
Underneath the mechanism, there is a girl in a white dress, who looks exactly like the one in the mechanical device on the ground, but if anyone else is here, they will be frightened by this girl, because this girl floats in the air like a ghost.
And not far from this girl, a 22-year-old man is overhauling the surrounding machines, he is the exclusive maintenance worker of this mechanism, Qiu Lin, although he is wearing a dusty overalls, but it does not reduce his handsomeness in the slightest, but now his mind is all on overhauling the machinery.
"Whew~"
The girl floated to the man's ear and blew a breath, which made him tremble a little, and then laughed helplessly: "Code, don't make trouble, the game will start tomorrow, I want to do the final maintenance, and you don't want to have problems tomorrow." ”
"Humph!"
Code snorted and turned around, ignoring Qiu Lin, which made Qiu Lin very helpless, but he also knew why Code was like this, after all, he was leaving the place where he had worked for 6 years tomorrow.
Code, a super-intelligent information aggregate that appeared for unknown reasons ten years ago, no information in the world can escape the palm of her hand, but she will never take the initiative to leak any information, and no one can steal any information from her.
Once, because a certain country coveted all the network information of Code, it summoned a large number of hackers to launch an attack on Code, but in no case, no one could break through Code's defense, but because that country provoked Code, the entire country's network was blocked by Code for a year, which set the economy back for decades, and those hackers who attacked Code were also arrested.
So far, no one dares to fight the idea of Code, and because of the reason that Code is in China, various major countries have also begun to make friends with Huaxia.
Eight years ago, Code suddenly contacted elite game producers in various countries to make a world-class virtual reality game "Glimmer", which surprised those game producers, and if Code was used as a carrier, the game produced would be infinitely close to reality.
Although Code has repeatedly said that he doesn't need a repairman, the production team still found a lot of repairers for Code, but none of them made Code like it, and those repairers would be fired in less than a month every time, and no one knew where they went, until the appearance of Qiu Lin, it gradually stabilized, and he was the maintainer who accompanied Code for the longest time.
"Click."
Qiu Lin carefully closed the last cover, wiped the sweat on his head, looked back at Code and said, "Code, today's overhaul is over, I'm leaving tomorrow, will you miss me?" ”
"I think you're a big-headed ghost, you bad guy checks my body every day, and you want to just leave like that?"
This sentence made Qiu Lin's head sweat flow again: "Code, what you said is easy to mislead others." ”
"What about the misunderstanding, it's just the two of us here anyway, can you find a third person?"
After speaking, Code's expression couldn't help but become sad: "If you leave, I'll be the only one here, at least accompany me at the end." ”
After listening to Code's words, Qiu Linlen paused for a moment, then walked to Code's side, reached out and touched her head: "I'm sorry, although I also want to stay, but this is a rule, I have to leave after 6 years of work, but you are so powerful, it should be easy to find my location through the Internet, and you can meet me at any time whether it is a mobile phone or a computer." ”
Code raised his head and held out his little thumb: "That's okay." ”
Qiu Lin smiled and stretched out his little thumb to hook it.
"Hanging for a hundred years is not allowed to change, and whoever regrets it will swallow a thousand needles."
Qiu Lin turned around and picked up the toolkit on the ground and walked to the door of the exit: "Don't worry, I will definitely do the thing that pulls the hook, and Code, you are really a child, who will play the hook now." ”
"Hmph, I'm willing."
"Click!"
A sudden loud bang interrupted the conversation between the two, and when Qiu Lin reacted, the door to go out had been locked deadly, no matter how Qiu Lin pushed it, he couldn't push it open, and at first Qiu Lin thought it was just a prank by Code, but it wasn't until a trace of green gas seeped in through the crack in the door that Qiu Lin knew that something was wrong.
He hurriedly took out his mobile phone and dialed the boss's number, and it didn't take long for him to get through, as if the other party knew that Qiu Lin was going to call.
"Why do you want to do this, I didn't do anything out of the ordinary, cough cough cough ......"
The phone rang with a middle-aged man's voice, full of helplessness: "Qiu Lin, I know that you are a good employee, but you know too much, after so many years of maintenance, you more or less know some important information in the code, so you can't be left, rest assured that your brother will take care of it." ”
"You...... If you dare to touch my brother, I'm not done with you, cough cough cough!! ”
The momentary excitement made Qiu Lin inhale more poisonous gas, and there was a loud laugh on the other end of the phone: "Hahahaha, you are all a dying person, what qualifications are there and we are not finished, even Code can't save you today!" ”
The other side cut off the call, and Qiu Lin didn't have much strength to move anymore now, so he could only clench his fists helplessly, the other party used extremely poisonous gas to ensure his death.
Code floated to Qiu Lin's side and tried to hold his hand, but now Qiu Lin's consciousness was blurred, Code's hand passed directly through his hand, and Code could not make contact with people without the other party's consent.
"I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be ...... big idiot"
Hearing Code's words, Qiu Lin smiled and said, "This ...... This is my self-...... The path you choose, even if it is ...... Even if I go back to 6 years ago, I would still do it, Code...... Thank you, for these six years of ...... Companionship, meet you...... I...... I'm happy...... Cough! ”
Qiu Lin spat out a mouthful of blood, his arm collapsed from his body, and he didn't move again.
Looking at the motionless Qiu Lin Code, she tried to shake his body to wake him up, but it didn't work, as before, Code's hands passed through Qiu Lin's corpse, and at this time, as an aggregate, she actually shed tears, although these tears were also formed by code.
"Big fool, big fool, I said I wanted to keep in touch, did you break the contract so quickly, I ...... I'm not going to let you die! ”
Code wiped away her tears, floated to the center of this room, half-knelt on the ground, slapped her hands the ground, and instantly the blue light on the ground bloomed, and the lines like spider webs spread around with Code as the center, and the speed was very fast.
Soon there were many complaints in the city.
"Damn, what's the power out."
"Damn, I'm on the Internet!"
"Your sister, I haven't saved it yet!"
Yes, the nearby kilometers or so of the network and electricity were all disappeared under the influence of Code, and they were all concentrated in her hands.
And somewhere in a tall building at this time, I thought that a middle-aged man with a sinister face was looking at a photo on the desk.
"Hey, hey, hey, Qiu Lin blames you for your bad life, not only do you have to work for me to death, but your brother can't escape, although you have absolute control over the network, code, but the reality is not something you can control with this code, hahaha......"
"Click!"
The door to the office was closed, and even the windows were locked, which made the middle-aged man feel a little uneasy, and he wanted to call the staff to ask what was wrong, but he couldn't get through anyway, and instead a frightened voice came from his mobile phone.
"The guy who killed the big idiot won't let you live like this."
This voice frightened the middle-aged man to throw away his mobile phone, the sound of Code, the whole world is very familiar, and the big fool is obviously referring to the revenge.
The room began to heat up, and since it was now surrounded by alloy steel plates, the temperature was rising much faster than before.
The middle-aged man quickly stripped naked, but the temperature continued to rise, long beyond the limit of the maximum temperature in this room, and under the control of Code, soon the room became a huge microwave oven, and the middle-aged man was the dish inside.
……
Back in the underground space, Code closed his eyes as he looked at the information sources gathered around him and the corpse of the Vengeance.
"Boom!"
The whole room began to shake violently, even reaching the ground, making passers-by think that there was an earthquake, and underground, those machines that Qiu Lin usually maintained turned into huge mechanical tentacles, and these tentacles wrapped Qiu Lin under the control of Code.
In less than a minute, the mechanical tentacles that enveloped Vengeance bloomed with a huge blue light, but this light was fleeting, and all the tentacles turned back into machines after the light bloomed, and the Vengeance encased in them disappeared.
Looking at the vanishing Vengeance, Code's face showed a smile, her body began to be illusory due to being too tired, and such a large amount of energy mobilization made Code's illusory body a little overwhelmed.
"Big fool, I hope you like this new identity I gave you."
After saying that, Code's body disappeared, and the body on the road suddenly flashed, but this did not surprise passers-by, and it flashed once a day for all these years.
……
The next day, "Glimmer" was officially launched, and the number of online users around the world exceeded 500 million, of course, this number is still ongoing
It's going up, but for Code, which is the server itself, even if people all over the world play Shimmer, it won't affect her too much.
And just when everyone who entered the game began to sigh at the close to 100% realism of the game, in the novice dungeon Warcraft lair, a thousand kilometers away from the novice village, a person lying on the stone bed woke up from his slumber, and at this moment, the words of Code sounded above all the servers.
"The world's only boss demon vendetta, awakened in the No. 1000 novice village in Huaxia, in the novice copy of the Warcraft Lair Hell difficulty, in the case of demon vendetta in the hell difficulty, the player and the squad who kill for the first time will get the only equipment of the Demon Claw, limited to one month."
Although it was in the dungeon, the person who had just woken up laughed and said, "This is the unlucky boss, and it's too miserable......"
Before he finished speaking, the man saw the name on his head in the mirror next to the bed, and the bright red word demon hatred came into his eyes.
"Gan, how did I become a demon enemy, no, didn't I die before?"
This person who woke up was the Qiu Lin who was killed by the high-level of Shimmer yesterday, and with Code's efforts, he became a powerful and unique boss in Shimmer, but he was also a sweet spot in the eyes of all players.
