Chapter 1: Dead House No. 1

This world is boring. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

To be precise, it should be said that in this world, what human beings need to survive, this part of the human world, is boring.

It's not naΓ―ve, dirty, stupid, or whatever, it's just that the world is boring.

Maybe it's because I obey the order too much, but when I think that no matter what happens, there is an inevitable law behind it, and that there is a reason for everything, I have a strong sense of suffocation and oppress myself.

Of course, this is a very stupid idea, and you understand it yourself. Without these laws, I would not exist, if I did not accept cause and effect, I would not even be able to think, and if I did not have order, I am afraid that I would have died a long time ago.

But it's still boring -- and that's what makes the world interesting.

Unexplainable things exist, things that don't make sense, things that don't need to follow any rules, exist, just like the feeling of boredom that I inexplicably produces.

If we think about this question carefully, we can come to the conclusion that although the world of human beings as a whole is boring, this is not the case with individual human beings. As many inspirational works say, people have infinite possibilities -

That's how it should be. Unfortunately, that's not the case......

Throwing the irritating pile of paper in his hand into the garbage heap filled with his companions, he realized that he had been completely surrounded by this garbage. Although they no longer show their disgusting bodies, they are wrapped in various colored clothes, and as long as they are seen, a strong stench will echo in their nasal passages.

For this, I had to close my eyes, stop thinking, and let myself fall asleep.

And when I fell asleep, I remembered that it was not because there was more order, but because there was something missing, I felt that this world was so boring and boring......

…………

"Sister, be careful."

What a bright sunshine shining on my sister's fair skin--so beautiful...... How long has it been since you've seen one? I don't know -- no, I don't know why I think this way. Was it a long dream? It's as if many years have passed...... Now I'm 14 years old, in my second year of junior high school, there's no doubt about that......

"yes, got it. It's obviously a little ghost.,I know how to care about others.。 ”

My sister's smile is very beautiful, and the exposed teeth are shining dazzlingly, which is already brighter than the sun, but the teeth are not particularly prominent, destroying the overall beauty, because my sister is the brightest and warmest star in the world.

At that time, I loved the world so much - it's ridiculous that it was for such a boring reason.

There are inexplicable thoughts in my mind, like darkness rising in the abyss, gnawing at my heart.

"Of course! My sister is so good-looking, everyone will want to care! ”

"The little guy has such a sweet mouth. You should be in the rebellious period now, alas, is it okay to stick to your sister so much? ”

"Of course, if my sister agrees, I will forever, forever pester my sister!"

The surroundings of "...... forever" gradually lost their color, became black and white, and then the brightness gradually decreased.

The things that "forever ......" in his arms gradually became cold and no longer soft.

"Forever ......" "Gollum" made a strange sound on his body, although he couldn't see it, but he clearly knew that it was the tentacle monsters and parasitic beasts that had been raised in his body before, and they ran out on their own inexplicably, and now they are entangled under his sister's empty ribs.

"Foreverβ€”ah......"

…………

When I opened my eyes again, the irritating piles of books were gone, replaced by the demons of dreams.

[Say we're demons?] 】

[In the dream, he pushed something bad to us...... How do you describe this kind of - scum? 】

"......" raised his hand and confirmed that his hand was not the white and red and soft appearance when he was a child, but because there was no sun exposure all year round, showing an extremely unhealthy miserable white, skinny palm, "......"

Dead House No. 1 finally woke up and smiled subconsciously: "Dreaming is something we can't control." I'm sorry if it makes you feel uncomfortable. ”

[In our current position, there is no room for discomfort. 】

[However, if you treat us as demons, it will make us doubt the sincerity of your cooperation.] 】

"Don't worry......" Dead House 1 tugged at a tentacle that had grown from his right shoulder with his hand, and it wasn't until the tentacles retracted into his body that Dead House 1 opened his mouth again, "Human beings are unprincipled creatures, and even if I think you are demons, it won't affect what I promised you." ”

[The self-preservation instinct of living beings, we think can be trusted.] 】

[Alas? Don't get involved with me in this sentence. If human beings have no principles, isn't it possible that even the instinct for self-preservation will be abandoned? Judging from the information collected before, there are still people here who commit suicide for no reason even though there is nothing special. And, speaking of which, isn't this guy an anomalous creature? 】

"Not really." Dead House No. 1 suddenly laughed, "I'm not trying to destroy my race, I'm trying to make it better." There's nothing wrong with biological instinct, right? Speaking of which, do you know about the Human Completion Project? ”

[I don't know.] 】

[In your words here, it's just a stalk or something, right? Seems like a noun from some fantasy work? 】

"Ahh Dead House No. 1 sat up, shook his head, held his head, stumbled to the computer desk, sat down suddenly, and a computer chair appeared out of thin air, just catching his body, "So, what I said before, how did the two of you do?" Does my opinion have any effect? ”

[Very useful, steadily underway.] 】

[Speaking of which, we feel like we're feeling pretty good even if we live here all the time~]

[Don't say "we."] 】

[Oh, didn't I learn from you? Haha~ So, what if we really want to live here? 】

"......," Dead House 1 was silent for a while, then laughed, "Speaking of which, you tell me that your consciousness is a cluster consciousness. It is the kind of cells that are very separated, and as long as there are a certain number of them within a certain range, they can be conscious. ”

[Yes.] 】

[Well, didn't you say you could understand this life form before?] 】

"It's understandable...... Dead House 1 smiled, "Liar, isn't it?" You're closer to the Zerg, aren't you? There is a masterbrain, and all branches act under the influence of instinct and masterbrain instructions. ”

【……】

How is that possible? This life form is inferior, isn't it? As long as the main brain is exploded, it will be wiped out? 】

"Your civilization is no better than ours. Not to mention interstellar travel, breaking through the atmosphere in the true sense of the word is difficult for all of you, right? Dead House 1 narrowed his eyes, "Will you be able to evolve your life form to that extent?" ”

【…… Civilization is moving in a different direction. 】

[Oops, oops...... My dear compatriots, I am so disappointed in you......]

"Hmph." Dead House 1 smiled again, "Based on your previous performance, the correct answer here is 'We were born to be perfect.'" I can guess that there are quite a few people in this world who can guess, and once 'finding the mastermind and destroying you' becomes a rewarding task - do you think you can really beat the player? ”

【……】

[Oh, don't talk about such a terrible thing. It's to prevent such an unfortunate thing from happening, isn't it that we have to cooperate with you? 】

"That's right." Dead House 1 shrugged, "In other words, you didn't doubt my margins." Now I'm going to be busy with something else, can I ask you not to talk? ”

【…… OK. 】

[Hehe, you're always so serious.] What's the matter, we're doing this now, which in itself shows our trust in you, right? If we don't trust you, what are we going to do with putting ourselves in opposition to the dominant creatures on this planet? 】

Dead House 1 and Doom Watcher chat log: 2/153/2021

Dead House No. 1: Doomsday, is it there?

Dead House No. 1: Doomsday, come out.

Doom Watcher: Here it comes! No. 1, what are you in a hurry, really.

Dead House 1: ...... I waited a minute.

Doom Warden: Hey, hey, what do you mean by that, No. 1? Generally speaking, if you call someone on QQ, or at three o'clock in the morning, you should be thankful for a response, right?

Dead House One: You're not a person who can be understood in general, are you? You were also on call before.

Doom Watcher: Cut ...... I'll just say, you've probably guessed a bit......

Doom Watcher: So? What are you going to say this time? You know, group members are violating the rules of the group by chatting privately?

Dead House 1: That rule doesn't make sense anymore. Miracles have happened, and we are no longer just obsessed with fantasy, we have already embarked on completely different paths, and this group has long been no longer necessary.

Doom Watcher: Hum Hum ...... That's true for you, but I, the leader of the group, didn't start a group because of the pain of being bored. However, this group rule can really be updated. So, what are you going to say?

Dead House 1: It's the same thing we talked about in the group last time.

Doom Watcher: Huh? That thing?

Dead House 1: About the Tournament Reward - Do you remember my "guess"?

Doom Watcher: Hmph - a large-scale interstellar teleportation designated once in this universe......

Dead House 1: That's right.

Doom Warden: It's unlikely that there will be a reward setting with an unclear meaning, right? Even if GM is really like Brother Lu said, it is an existence higher than any party, which is basically equivalent to omnipotence, but this kind of unattractive reward can't be established, right? Everybody should be a little more interested in money than this kind of thing.

Dead House 1: How so? Large-scale interstellar teleportation is a great scientific opportunity, and although the qualifiers are over, once the rewards are announced, the scientists in the player world will go crazy for it, right? Even if you don't have one of them, they'll understand how much they can get from those research institutes.

Doom Warden: But ah, why such an inexplicable reward?

Dead House 1: Tell those people how much you want to be champions? If the champion's wish is just a wish to make my childhood friend fall in love with me again, the GM will also find it boring, right?

Doom Watcher: Huh? Makes sense, alas.

Doom Ward: Wait, what's the use of you telling me?

Dead House 1: What are you still pretending......

Doom Watcher: Cut ...... Whatever. But why should I set up such a reward, you want to send those tentacles back to their homeland, right? That's how I worked so hard to get them to be shipped as expansions. It's already very difficult to find parasitic creatures in this universe, and those who can adapt to your environment here are even rarer.

Doom Watcher: It took so much effort to send you away without doing anything?

Dead House 1: I hope you can cooperate. After causing chaos in the real sense of the word, and then destroying the current so-called order, they are just in the way, but they have helped me after all, and I don't want to cross the river and tear down the bridge now.

Doom Watcher: So, why?

Dead House 1: Didn't I ask you for the perfect protection measure for 2 before? You didn't make it at all, shouldn't you give me something to compensate me?

Doom Warden: Hey, hey, what are you talking about? I've really done a perfect job of protecting No. 2.

Dead House 1: ......

Dead House 1: ......

Dead House No. 1: My sister died nine years ago.

Doom Warden: Hesitating for a long time, but I know? What's the matter with your sister? Dead House No. 2, isn't it the AI program that your sister left on your computer? Successfully passed the Turing test. Your brother and sister are geniuses.

Dead House 1: ......

Doom Warden: Hey, hey, did I usually talk to you so well that you ignored it?

Doom Warden: Think about what you've just done, you're threatening an all-knowing being who is higher than you, and to you is omniscient. Are you a little too stupid?

Dead House 1: ...... The focus of the contest is the desire of the first place, right? The other rewards are just a make-up.

Doom Watcher: That's right? That doesn't matter, right? Your request can also be fulfilled through your wishes, how about working hard and becoming a champion with the Knights? From the perspective of comprehensive strength, your combination is very strong, right?

Dead House 1: ...... Although I didn't want to say that word because of Brother Lu, I ......

Dead House 1: Doomsday, let's trade.

…………

In the dark room, No. 1 of the Dead House slumped in a computer chair in a trance.

Then, there was an unusual laugh.

"Hey...... Hey...... yes, sister, she died nine years ago......"

The "Dididi" computer sounded the QQ prompt, which sounded a little harsh somehow.

It's a call from Dead House 2, the AI that exists in this computer.

"Little one? Why don't you sleep yet? That's why your dark circles are so heavy, right? ”

Dead House 1 stared at the screen for a long time, and then, suddenly, with a dark smile, sat up straight.

"No. 2, you don't have to talk to me with this attitude in the future."

"I'm Dead House No. 1, the one who wants to be the final boss who destroys the world and gives it a new lease of life, but I don't have that much time to sleep in. In the future, I will sleep more than I can. ”
