Chapter Fifty-Eight: Experience the Toshers
“So…… Your friend is really funny," Tina said to Huang Jie on the side, spreading her hand to the side, "but it's just a little cold." ”
"He's not an indifferent person." Huang Jie walked up to Toshers, his fingers lightly touched the metal shell, and when he touched a small crystal panel in the middle of the metal plate of the knife, Huang Jie suddenly felt that his body could not move, and a microcurrent ran down his fingertips to the inside of his brain.
About two seconds later, a bright light struck with hearing and various senses, like a flood of beasts. It felt like he had suddenly stepped out into the sunlight from a dark place, but Huang Jie couldn't even use his hands to block out the dazzling light. He could only bear it in silence, and it was not until he adjusted to the light and calmed down that everything around him began to slowly focus.
He was in a gray void with no end in sight, and every now and then lightning flashed around him, and clouds of mist rose and fell around him. Occasionally, the clouds form a variety of strange geometric shapes that resemble those found in the real world, sometimes resembling the outline of a building, sometimes resembling the tips of a tree's branches. Next, Huang Jie lowered his head to look at himself, but found that what he saw was not his own body.
His elbows, legs, and abdomen were firmly encased in a brown metal shell, and underneath it was a black tight, Huang Jie. His lower and upper body are connected as one, and the metal shell firmly wraps around his legs. He wears a brown metal hand col on his hand and a gun on his arm. When he turned his head, his head was also tightly wrapped, and in the enclosed space, he suddenly realized that he actually had a thick beard, and his head was tightly attached to the conical metal helmet above his head, the brim of which was oval, and his head was firmly wrapped inside.
Huang Jie turned around, and then he saw a mirror, facing it, he opened the mask of the helmet, and the moment the mask all faded to his neck, he saw an unfamiliar face: a black shoulder-length hair, and a goatee, as if he had aged a lot all of a sudden. Soon, though, he realized it wasn't him, as the face had a longitudinal scar on the right eyelid and lower eyelid.
"Hey! Hey! Tina on the side gently shook Huang Jie, who was staring at his hand in a daze, Huang Jie came to his senses, and he looked around: like Tina, who looked suspicious, the surroundings returned to the previous laboratory.
Huang Jie was a little puzzled, he lowered his head to look at his freely stretched fingers, and it wasn't until Xie Qi's return that he regained his attention.
Xie Qi came to the experimental table on the side, put down the things in his hand, looked at the chip in his hand with a screwdriver, and muttered, "Don't you think it's amazing?" ”
"Huh?" Huang Jie asked with some surprise, "What did you say?" ”
"I ask you if it's amazing what you just saw on your armor?"
"How do you know this?" Huang Jie asked.
Xie Qi put down the chip and screwdriver in his hand, "Rely on this," he said with his finger to the restriction on his neck, "You must want to ask me, you also have this limiter, and it's no different from your one, right?" ”
Huang Jie nodded, at this moment he was very strange how Xie Qi could read his words, could it be that he had peace and ......
"No!" Tina and Xie Qi on the side vetoed in disagreement, and then, Tina pointed to Huang Jie in front of her and said, "I've told you many times that I'm not a rabbit!" I'm warning you at once! After speaking, she looked at Xie Qi on the side with a strange look, and after a while, it turned into a smile, and then she said, "You are really an interesting person." ”
"What?" Huang Jie was a little confused, and he began to wonder if he was the protagonist in this chapter...... No, no, but now is not the time for him to think about this, "What are you talking about?" Huang Jie then asked.
"I did it with this thing." Xie Qi said, pressing the button of the VR limiter on his neck, and a blue chip popped out from the back of his neck.
"What's this?" Huang Jie looked at his hand and asked.
"This is a simple hacking chip he developed." Tina added as she leaned her back against the wall, "It's similar to the thing that Old Lou gave you, but it should be a little more advanced than his." ”
"Yes, she's right." Xie Qi continued, "You should know that in our current technological society, every born human will have a small chip in their brain. ”
"Are you talking about birth permits?" Huang Jie said.
"That thing isn't as simple as a birth permit." Saying that, Xie Qi opened the projection screen in his hand, clicked on a picture of the human body, zoomed it in to the position of his brain, and then spread it on the table and said, "This is not an ordinary chip," Xie Qi pointed to the letters on the chip above.
“Mobius。” Huang Jie suddenly reacted, "This is developed by your company again?" ”
"Yes," Xie Qi nodded, "It was developed by Mobius, this thing can not only store people's birth information and age, but also help people store lifelong learning materials, not only that, this thing can also be networked, and everyone has their own IP Internet function, and even ......" He pointed to his eyeballs and said, "This thing can also observe what you like through your eyes and store it, and transfer it to your coordinator, so that you can print your photos, in addition, It also stores your thoughts and emotions at all times. ”
"Is it so amazing?" Huang Jie said, scratching the back of his head.
"Hey," Tina sighed, "you don't look like a 25th century......"
"I'll get straight to the point." Xie Qi picked up the chip in his hand and explained, "Since you can access the Internet, it's not difficult, this is a hacking chip, I can rely on it to hack into your brain chip, and then read your thoughts." After saying that, Xie Qi put the chip back into the coordinator around his neck.
"This guy isn't inferior to Lucius." Tina leaned against the wall and pointed to Xie Qi on the side and said.
"Now you know why I'm looking for him." Huang Jie said with some confidence.
"I'll interrupt for a moment." Xie Qi said to Huang Jie, "What did you see?" ”
"Oh, yes!" Huang Jie clapped his hands and said, "I saw that I was wearing a suit of armor, an armor that looked heavy but was very close. ”
"Anything else?"
"And I had a gun on my back, and I looked like a soldier."
"That's enough." Xie Qi turned sideways and showed a long-lost smile, "That's the ancestral memories in your DNA. ”
"Ancestral memories?"
"Yes." Xie Qi scratched open the DNA model and said, "That is, your ancestral memory, let's put it this way," he clicked on a passage in the DNA spiral, and then an image of a father holding his child appeared, "The memory of people's DNA will only exist until your mother conceives you, and it will not appear in your DNA after that...... In other words, your DNA memories will only appear on your children and grandchildren. Speaking of this, Xie Qi glanced at Tina on the side.
Tina looked up, first suspicious of Xie Qi, and then immediately blushed like an apple, "I'm not him......"
"It doesn't matter, let's not talk about this yet." Xie Qi said, "Hey, I'm not mistaken, your father and mother died when you were ten years old. ”
Huang Jie bit his finger and nodded.
"That should be your father's memory." Xie Qi said, turned on the huge projection screen behind him, and said, "You have entered your father's memory, you can know something." ”
"But there's a problem...... Huang Jie said with some confusion, "I see that person has a scar here." He pointed to his right eye and said, "You know, my father was an honest man, so honest that he was wronged and imprisoned, and then died of appendicitis in prison. ”
"I don't know about that," Xie Qi patted Huang Jie's shoulder and said, "But do you want to try?" If that's really your father, maybe you'll be able to get some new abilities. ”
Huang Jie was a little hesitant, but after thinking for a while, he still vetoed, "No need, the main reason for coming here today is to find information about Luna." ”
"Your friend's information, simple," Xie Qi stretched out his hand to Huang Jie, "Huh?" ”
"What?"
"Where's the stuff?"
"What's that?"
"DNA." Xie Qi frowned and said, "You won't have it, right?" As he spoke, he glanced at Tina, who was leaning against the wall behind him.
Tina looked up, looked at them both suspiciously, and then pointed to herself and said, "Huh? ”
"That's right! That's right! Huang Jie walked up to Tina, "She was there that day, and it may be rewarding to peek into her memories." With that, Huang Jie pushed Tina forward, "Go ahead, rabbit." ”
"I'm not...... Rabbit ......" Before Tina could finish speaking, Xie Qi on the side added, "That's the daughter-in-law." ”
"Then go, daughter-in-law." As he spoke, Huang Jie pushed Tina again.
"I'm ......" Tina's face turned red for a moment, but after a moment, she regained her composure and sighed, "I was stunned by the plasma cannon that day, and then I put Tetrodotoxin to sleep and provoked Luna with fake animation, so I was dizzy and didn't know anything." ”
"You're an NPC?" Huang Jie asked, holding his hand against his chin.
"Nonsense!" Tina scolded, though she was still blushing.
"Then she won't need it." Huang Jie said, "So what should we do? ”
Xie Qi turned around, he took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket, threw one to Tina and one to Huang Jie, and said, "I think you can get to know Toshers first, don't you really want to know what this game is like?" You might as well try, anyway, your friend's business, I believe there are witnesses over there, you can use hacking chips. ”
"Yes," Huang Jie said after a moment's thought, "then where do we start?" ”
"You sit down first." Xie Qi pointed to the seat on one side, and Huang Jie walked over, he sat on it, and asked, "And then?" ”
"Lie down." Xie Qi said, turning around and starting to take things.
Huang Jie lay back and put his hands on the armrests of the recliner. After a while, Xie Qi took a bracer and sat down on the chair next to him, and then debugged various data in the air and connected them to the host one by one.
"Please, stretch your arms out to me." Xie Qi opened the bracer like a clam shell.
"What's that?" Huang Jie asked.
"It's a scanner." Xie Qi replied, "It will pass your genes into the core of the Toshers. Just give me your little arm. ”
Huang Jie rolled up the sleeves of his hoodie, and Xie Qi put the bracer on his arm and buckled it.
"You're not afraid of pain, are you?" Xie Qi asked, and before Huang Jie could speak, a burning sensation suddenly spread to the inside of his nerves on the inside of the wrist guard, like cramps, Huang Jie screamed and the whole person bounced, but was held down by Xie Qi, "Relax and relax......" As he spoke, Xie Qi turned his seat, faced the data on the projection screen, and began to tap on the infrared projection keyboard in front of him.
Then Huang Jie returned to that hazy space.
Tina stepped aside, looking at the interface on the display and the rapidly scrolling fonts, she really didn't know what it was.
"That's called Tina, right?"
"Hmm." Tina nodded.
"You'll press that button then." Xie Qi said, pointing to the only button on Toshers.
Tina walked over to Toshers.
"Next you're going to enter the game, you can rest assured that you can share the virtual scene with our outside world after you go in, there will be a task prompt in the lower right corner after you go in, you must follow it, otherwise you will lose synchronization, don't remember, don't use your current identity to speak, tell the story according to your character's memory, understand?"
"Understood." Huang Jie replied.
"Then let's get started." After saying that, Xie Qi flipped the switch on Toshers.
