Chapter 4: Spike Games
When Shi Min woke up, it was already noon the next day.
The familiar chandelier, the familiar window, the familiar air, the familiar bed, there is no doubt that it is your own bedroom.
"Well, it's like a strange dream."
The hapless boy looked up at the ceiling and muttered to himself, still he couldn't remember how he got out of the mech and went back to bed, or rather...... Is it really just a dream?
"Let's face it, nerd, paranoia won't solve the problem."
A familiar tone of impatience sounded above his head, and an extra "person" appeared in Shi Min's upper vision.
About one hundred and forty centimeters tall, very petite, soft night sè long hair like a curtain, all the way to the girl's ankles, as for the facial features, it is indescribably upright, a bizarre gothic style outfit, making her look like a custom doll from a high-end store, but her face is very poor, as if Shi Min owes him five hundred yuan. But these are not the point, the point is that the girl's body is suspended, yes, it's the kind that lifts her feet off the ground like a horror movie ghost, and it can scare people to death at first glance.
Fortunately, after not being scared to death for the first time, Shi Min discovered that her body was composed of an unknown substance like a light film, close to translucent, in other words, not a complete entity.
"Sand night, please, this is the second time I've reported home."
The projection girl with the ability to read minds understands what Shi Min is struggling with.
"Oh, I'm sorry."
Shi Min jumped out of bed in a panic and got dressed, Sha Ye spun in the air for half a circle, and landed on another empty bed in the bedroom, holding his small chin with his palm, looking at Shi Min impatiently.
"By the way, it's already twelve forty minutes past noon, and it's only fifty minutes before your first class of the afternoon."
"Holy! So fast! ”
Shi Min hurriedly put on his clothes, and after a series of tragedies such as wearing trousers backwards, shirts and belts with the wrong buttons, he finally solved the problem of wearing in ten minutes. On the sand night that watched coldly, he came to the conclusion that "such a virtuous person has grown in more than ten years, and being a man is over."
After sleeping for so long, the strong hunger that came from brunch all surged up, and he hurriedly threw the red sausage bread and juice brought from home into the microwave oven to heat up, Shi Min rushed to the bathroom and hurriedly splashed a few handfuls of cold water on his face, and then took out the heated food, tore the plastic wrapping paper and chewed while cleaning up the textbook, then he felt that it was quite good to live alone, at least he could monopolize the living facilities for two people.
"Anyway, don't you eat ......., or recharge or something?"
Shi Min was only halfway through his words, and then he suddenly remembered that the girl in front of him was just a virtual image, but since it was an obvious artifact, unless the legendary perpetual motion machine was created, there must be an energy connection to operate, but Shi Min couldn't see the channel for Sand Night to obtain energy.
"It doesn't matter, my backup energy is stored in the 'corpse', and I don't need it for the time being."
Sand Night said casually.
Although he didn't understand what she was talking about at all, in order to avoid being sprayed with blood, Shi Min stopped his train of thought and shut up.
At ten o'clock, a person and an unknown creature went out together, the footprints left by yesterday's mecha battle were still shockingly imprinted on the road, lampposts, parking, and stone stickers were all lifted out of their original positions, and the fragmented turf vegetation was scattered all over the ground, looking miserable, and the workers were busy repairing the outer layer of the apartment building that was crushed by the gray and black sè mecha yesterday, but if you look closely, Shi Min found that the damage to the building itself does not seem to be as serious as imagined.
The white-green sè mecha and the gray-black sè mecha have disappeared, thinking of the messy shooting of the gray and black sè guys last night, Shi Min was frightened into a cold sweat, thinking that it was broken, should it kill people, right? I haven't even killed a chicken since I was a child, and I killed someone on the first day of college, which is too exciting!
"Don't worry, with the power of the assault pistol, at most, it only breaks the main armor layer, and people can't die, to be precise, the spike game has been played for three years, and not a single corpse has been produced."
The figure of the sand night outside became completely transparent, and the mode of speaking was changed to a sentence directly in Shi Min's mind, and it was still not polite to read people's minds at all.
"'Spike Games', playing like this, is this just a game?"
This is the second time he has heard this term, Shi Min feels almost crazy, what the hell is this!
"Keep your eyes open, nerd, and take a good look at the people around you."
Sand Night snorted impatiently.
Shi Min subconsciously looked around, he was not stupid, at least not particularly stupid, just a sweep of the problem immediately found the problem. Some of the students who came and went excitedly took pictures of the scene, some pointed at the damaged apartment building, and some exchanged heads while bypassing the potholes.
That's surprise.
Faced with this kind of scene, which is supposed to be shocking, no one shows this feeling.
This incredible phenomenon can only show one thing, that is, the fierce mecha conflict last night seems to be as common here as picking up girls after class.
But that's terrifying, what the hell is this place?!
Shi Min dizzy and dizzy into the army of classes, crossed the crossroads, and entered the A teaching building to start the first class of his college career. It seems that many people have not yet recovered from the black-and-white reversal of the summer vacation routine, and there are less than five minutes before class, and people are still sparse.
"Phew, it's really boring, I didn't expect to see such an old-fashioned teaching method in this century."
"Then how can you teach, directly plant a chip in your head and input it with a computer?"
"That's pretty much it, Lao Mei has already started experiments, and now, it's brainwave communication mode, you can directly form ideas in your brain and interact with me, without saying it."
"Oh."
Shi Min nodded, to be honest, he was too much like a self-talking neurosis.
The class bell rang, and the last group of students walked into the classroom almost at the same time as the teacher, the teacher was a thin old man in his fifties and sixties, who looked quite kind, and claimed to be surnamed Wang, and then there was a nonsense such as the new semester and the new atmosphere, I hope everyone will study hard and don't skip class.
"Squeak"
The folding seat on the left rang, and Shi Min turned his head to see a big man with muscles like a tower smiling at him in a friendly manner.
"Hello."
The folding seat on the right rang, and Shi Min turned his head to see a young man looking at him with an unhappy face.
"Look at Mao, and then look at breaking your leg."
The folding seat behind him rang, and Shi Min turned his head to see a young man with a hippie smile looking at him with a very rogue smile.
"Yo, meet again, sāo year."
The folding seat in front of him rang, and Shi Min turned his head to see a familiar girl with big eyes in a ponytail smiling brightly at him.
"Good morning, brother, do you have anything to say?"
Of course.
Shi Min squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying.
"You're ....... finally going to kill me."
Shi Min didn't listen to anything in the three classes, and after class, he was tied up like a ticket by a group of people into a remote office located on the first floor of the administrative building.
As soon as he entered, Shi Min was surprised to find that this room, which was no different from other offices, was a large war room, with satellite maps marked with various points of light hung on the wall, and a large table in the middle of the holographic three-dimensional projection of the campus, three large display screens in front of him were constantly beating the monitoring screen, and several military laptops with a size two circles larger than the civilian model were connected by wires.
"Hey, junior, meet again."
The man raised his hand to say hello, and Shi Min immediately recognized that this guy was not the student union officer who received him as an admission?
So you have a share!
"Huh, okay, okay, junior brother, do you have a student ID?"
"Huh, is this one?"
Shi Min subconsciously took out a magnetic card from his trouser pocket, Lu Yao grabbed the card and swiped it on the card slot on the desk, and then snapped his fingers with satisfaction.
"Ok, welcome to the Ministry of Security, junior!"
"Hey, I haven't said anything yet!"
"I didn't say it, I just acquiesced."
"What kind of bandit logic is this!"
"I'm sorry, this is normal logic, I've played the 'spike game', of course our security department has the obligation to forcibly recruit you to join."
Shi Min was stunned, why is it a spike game again, what is this thing that has not been dispersed since the beginning of school?
"Zhou Ming, come on."
Unable to explain, he pouted and tilted his head to the chief financial officer of the security department, who coughed, put down his work, pushed his glasses and stood up.
"The pinnacle game, in short, is carried out in the first-line universities with strong R&D capabilities in our country, and the irregular confrontation is carried out in a competitive way, the main purpose is to show the latest scientific research achievements of their universities, oh, you may not understand it very well, in short, it is the same as Nokia smashing walnuts and Nokia blowing up tanks, which is a confrontation game that relies on unconventional ways to gain a lot of attention."
"Hack me Nokia again."
Shi Min muttered, and suddenly remembered another thing.
Since it is a competition, it is always based on the purpose of safety first and friendship second, but now it is a matter of making a fuss, shooting and demolishing a house is almost the same as engaging in a terrorist attack.
After asking Lu Yao, this senior sister's reply was very scary:
"Don't worry, since it's a competition, there must be rules, for example, large firearms and heavy knives are not allowed in the apartment area, and firearms can only use high-explosive shells designed with reduced charges, and the core cockpit of all mecha is made of reinforced titanium alloy, even if the eight-inch naval gun is smashed directly, it can't be penetrated, so even if you fight outdoors, the use of powerful ammunition to directly bombard will never cause casualties, it may be a little scary."
Shi Min almost collapsed.
It's just "a little scary", boss, how do your nerves grow?!
"By the way, the campus buildings participating in the spike game are all specially treated, the basic materials are high-grade reinforced concrete and some composite wood plates, and it is not a problem to withstand the general small and medium-caliber armor-piercing bullets and the impact of the body, and we will also pre-jǐng in advance before the spike game starts, so this is a big worry, we haven't seen anyone die for a few years."
God, I dare to love myself sleeping in a bunker.
"But even if you don't die, isn't it very troublesome to fight like this every day?"
"Yes, so most of the more than 60 universities that just joined the Spike Game took the initiative to go out half a year before the Spike Game started, and only a few of us have survived until now."
Lu Yao's originally bright expression suddenly became a little heavy.
Shi Min suddenly thought of another question, since this is the case, then who is the awarder and referee, it will not be the principals of several schools, right?
"Of course it can't be, both are held by the military, and the purpose of the peak game is to attract the military's investment in technology, otherwise why would you think of using mecha as the main body of competition."
Sand Night Road. Shi Min noticed that this sentence uses sound waves, not brain waves to appear directly in the brain.
With the slight fluctuation of the space, a goth girl with long night hair suddenly appeared in mid-air. For her appearance, the members of the security department present were not surprised at all, and seemed to be very familiar with her.
Lu Yao raised his hand and said hello:
"Yo, Xiaoye, I didn't expect you to agree to go out of the mountain, I haven't seen you satisfied with the machine we selected before, why did you suddenly like this junior."
Except for being born, Shi Min, who has never done anything in the world, was immediately excited when he heard this information, thinking why such a good thing happened to him, could it be that he actually has some special talent that makes people look out?
Sha Ye glared at Shi Min fiercely, his eyes were fierce and terrifying.
"I've never seen such a scumbag guy, I don't like it at all, but others come to press the verification button, and dissatisfaction is a little 'rejection', but I didn't expect this idiot to press me more than a dozen times in a row, causing me to deal with it in a hurry, and accidentally clicked a 'agree' on my hand."
“………”
