Chapter 3: Pig Brains

There is a neat white high-rise building on the north side of Red Pomegranate Street in Xicheng District, Lekou City.

These buildings are flat and square, tall, short, fat and thin, exactly the same.

If you look at it from the front of a building, it will take on a perfect square. You also look perfectly square from the side, which means that the buildings are cuboidal. With the milky white lacquer, it looks very much like a cream pudding. Especially in the hot summer, the pudding set off by the rising heat is even more tempting.

While these scattered crème brûlées look neat and tidy from the outside, they are criss-crossed on the inside.

The inside of this huge cube is divided into hundreds of small cubes in a regular manner. Rey lives in a small chunk of it.

If the triangle is stable and the rectangular shape is beautiful, then these square buildings are the most space-efficient buildings.

Because the person in the cube has six square faces, each with a gravity sensor, you can easily walk from the floor to one wall, from wall to another, and even to the roof wall.

So, with this gravity-sensing device, Rey barely managed to have six small rooms that had shrunk. Of course, the wall with the door is awkward to use, but the door doesn't take up a lot of space on the wall, so the little space left is enough for a bed.

What about windows?

What more windows! Doors are necessary to get in and out, but windows are not, and they take up space, and a four-season lamp on the roof is enough to provide all the light.

Rey has very few things, only a bed, a table, a chair, a drawer of energy tablets, a pure water machine, a brain-computer interaction device, and an identity crystal charging plate. These things are evenly distributed on all four sides (including the Anmen side), and in this way, there are still two sides left.

The advent of energy tablets and water purifiers allowed Rey to say goodbye to the kitchen, and eating was an aristocratic sport in those days. At least for Rey, an absent security officer in the countryside, eating is a costly, tooth-consuming, and laborious thing, far less enjoyable than the energy pills.

These inexpensive and easy-to-use pills can provide all the nutrients a person needs for a day and can quench hunger. There are few drawbacks other than a single taste, and it saves a lot of time. Although this time will also be wasted in the end.

Of course, there is also a noodle to be left for the toilet, although it is possible to skip meals in this era, but basic metabolism is inevitable.

After this distribution, there is finally one side left, and this side can be described as brilliant, because there is nothing. This surface became the pure land of Rey's mind. He often meditates here and thinks about life.

This complex of buildings scattered on the north side of Red Pomegranate Street, steaming during the day and shining at night, is nicknamed Pomegranate Milk by the people of Lekou City, which is the poor area of this era.

Although the appearance of gravity sensors can make efficient use of space, the real rich will never use it.

There is always a huge space for the wealthy in any era. So they don't think about using space, they only think about killing time.

Rey was meditating on his Pure Land of Mind, and as soon as he returned home, the gravity sensor would come into play, and he could step in all directions at any time, disappearing from the east, east, west, and west. Like an astronaut floating in a space station, the concept of going up, down, left and right no longer exists.

The windows were also eliminated because of the space saving, so there was no intuitive feeling of time. It can be said that as soon as you return home, the outside world disappears completely.

But today, Rey is concerned about the outside world.

Although the object is yellow, I have gained the information of the Time Game Workshop, and I have also received an invitation to the Time Game Workshop, which is claimed to be equivalent to a car, a house, and a ticket.

Rey sat on the ground, his right hand clutching the narrow piece of metal tightly, and he could see all around.

The slender metal sheet is made of unknown materials, shining with a silvery luster and covered with fine textures. It's cool and comfortable to hold in your hand. The front of the metal piece is engraved with several words of the invitation of the Time Game Workshop, and the back is engraved: Please import the information in this invitation into the identity crystal, and open the file in the brain-computer interaction device. Note! This invitation cannot be damaged. Do not put in mouth.

……

Who's going to put this thing in their mouth?

Indestructible? By the way, Rey immediately took the piece of metal to his eyes and took a closer look.

Sure enough, before I noticed during the scramble, a small piece of the lower right corner of the piece of metal fell off when it fell. What kind of metal is this? It's so unruly.

I wonder if the information inside has been affected? Rey immediately took out the blue crystal, and after staring at the crystal for three seconds, the blue light flashed, and the crystal was unlocked.

A pale blue cube is projected in the sky, with many icons in the cube, and a gold coin engraved with the Great Wall in the upper left corner is slowly turning, and the back of the gold coin is written 139566, which is all of Rey's savings. In the upper right corner is written 38%, which is the remaining energy of the crystal.

In the center of the cube, more than a dozen three-dimensional figures are surrounded by a group and slowly rotated. There was a stack of papers, which were Rey's files. There's a soccer ball, which is Rey's favorite FIFA2237 soccer game this year, and there's a deck of poker, which is a landlord game that Rey uses to pass the time of boredom and make some extra money, which is said to have been popular in the Central Province for more than 200 years. There is a rotating globe, which is a browser for consulting information. There is a fiery red Mars, which is a donation program that everyone who works in the Central Province is forced to install, and is said to be used to help the Eastern Divine Kingdom expand its territory on Mars. Rey rarely uses it, but always loses a few Great Wall coins each month. The most used program for Rey is this three-dimensional figure, a donkey and a dog arguing in the middle circle, surrounded by a group of fat-headed pigs lying on the ground laughing, this is the forum. Rey loves this program to death, and has to find a few people on the forum every day to scare him. Although Rey in reality is still loyal and honest, especially in the face of the beautiful Oriental girl, he still looks a little wooden. But when it came to the forum, Rey could be described as left and right, and he was majestic. With good language organization skills and deliberately created perfect characters, Rey is famous. It is said that it has also won the favor of several oriental beauties at the forum, and can also receive a few Great Wall coins to subsidize daily use during the New Year's holidays.

At this time, Rey couldn't help but open the forum to search for posts about Time Games. Because I usually patronize people, plus I have no interest in the game workshop and the game room, although I often go to the forum, I don't even know this such a hot thing.

I don't know if I don't search, I was shocked when I searched, and there were so many posts in the Time Game Square that I was about to burst the crystal. Quantum crystal, such a black technology thing, actually stuttered painfully.

Rey skimmed through it cursoly, and there were hardly a few posts about the experience, and there were very few posts about invitations. Most of the posts are about where to pick up invitations, and some of the posts are about the owners of Time Games. It is said that not many people have seen the boss, just like a mysterious person. There were also discussions with the employees of the game shop, but everyone had a mysterious feeling. This is indeed a mysterious organization.

Forget it, now that you have it, why don't you take a good look at it, and your perfect character will shine again, which is really wonderful.

Well, post it right away, and the title is, "I have an invitation." ”

No, no, no. It's not a good style, you should change it, so that's it." I picked up one just by walking around. ”

Well, that's it. The invitation is not described, so it is more classy.

Rey was about to type, and he felt comfortable in every pore. When he raised his hand, the metal piece fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Yes! And a small piece of it fell.

Rey picked it up in distress. Yeah! You should see if the information is damaged right away, and we'll talk about it later.

Rey opens the mailbox in the bottom right corner of the cube and finds two multimedia letters inside.

Open the first letter right away.

After an animation that simulates opening an envelope, a robot walks out.

It's familiar, it's that arrogant Blue Lake City robot!

"Hello sir, a total of 840 Great Wall coins were spent. We look forward to your next visit. The robot politely said and blinked.

……

Rey angrily clicked the closure and immediately opened the second one.

"Thorn la la. Thorn la la la. ”

What's going on? Crystal's interface is completely black.

Oh, my God! Nothing like this has ever happened. Could it be that the crystal is broken? So what has become of you? Money, status, job, access to milk gada, adoration of beautiful cuties on forums, black iron members of the glamorous Oriental marriage agency, all this is gone? How can you live without crystals? That's no joke!

Just after Rey sweated profusely and looked at the identity crystal for more than 40 seconds, the crystal returned to the unlocked interface. It was definitely very uncomfortable for more than 40 seconds, Rey's eyes didn't blink, and he didn't dare to come out.

There was an unread letter left in the mailbox.

Well, Rey cautiously opened it again.

"Stabbing laal......"

Black screen! Smoke!! On fire!!!

Rey's heart was about to stop.

Oh my God, do you hate me so much? I'm having such a bad life, and I finally got a precious invitation, do you treat me like that?

Finally, the silence came down.

Rey held his breath and looked at the crystal again, and after a long time, Rey felt that there was already a ghost in front of him, and the crystal was finally unlocked.

There was still an unread letter in the mailbox......

God, if you don't open it, you can't read the information, and the invitation letter you got so hard won't do anything. It means that you have given up the only chance that you may be able to change your fate.

If you open it, in case the crystal explodes this time...... This means that you have given up your whole life!

To fight or not to fight, this is a question. Whether to silently endure the poisonous arrows of fate's tyranny, or to stand up against the endless suffering of the world, which of the two is noble?

Or, well, you should do some internet research first.

Open the rotating blue globe, open the girl search engine, and enter the five big characters of Time Game Square.

Rey stared at the cube, his eyes unblinking.

“404!”

God, there is no information.

It's such a mysterious organization, a game room or something, Rey hasn't been to it before, but this time game shop is really weird!

Forget it, go to the forum. Rey clicked on his beloved program, and with a hearty burst of pig laughter, Rey returned to his own turf.

Search, how to open the invitation of Time Game Workshop?

Well, there are so many posts that Rey looks at them at a glance and barely has any useful information.

Tumbling and rolling and rolling, it was about to come to an end, and suddenly an ID named "Pig Brain" appeared in Rey's field of vision, and this benevolent brother posted a post titled "In today's society, the only role of the brain machine".

Rey slowly opened the post.

"In today's society, with the rapid development of science and technology, the emergence of quantum crystal has revolutionized the lives of most digital products. Especially the brain-machine that used to be omnipotent. Nowadays, entertainment, office, everything can be easily achieved with crystals, although the computing power of the brain computer is much greater than that of the crystal, but unless the heavy office, almost no one will use the brain computer. With the mass production and use of office robots in Blue Lake City, heavy office will no longer need brain computers in the future. So the brain computer has become an embarrassing thing that almost everyone has, maybe they bought themselves, maybe they have been passed down for generations, but everyone doesn't use it. ”

Rory ramble, but what about the only use? Rey looked at the blackened text and activated the auto-reading mode. The speed of speech exploded in Rey's mind like a mantra. Rey felt drowsy.

“…………………… So, to sum up, the brain computer will no longer have any role, except to open the invitation to the Time Game Workshop. ”

Well, it's familiar, like I've seen it somewhere.

Suddenly, Rey slammed to his feet and slowly turned the invitation to the back.

"Please import the information from this invitation into the Identity Crystal and open the file in the BCI. Note! This invitation cannot be damaged. Do not put in mouth. ”

"I'm such a pig's brain!"
