Chapter 1: Welcome to the game of the deep sea

The cold touch characteristic of the liquid slowly rose from the back of his head, and when he was about to reach his eyes, Su Ming closed his eyelids.

First of all, the ear canal is blocked, and all sounds from the outside world become muffled until they are inaudible.

Gradually, he could only hear his own heartbeat.

Soon, he could clearly feel the fluid start flowing down his nasal passages.

Completely different from the game warehouse that entered various virtual games in the past, the special nutrient solution that was supposed not to affect the human gas exchange brought him a suffocating feeling this time.

However, for some reason, this feeling not only failed to make Su Ming's body produce an instinctive coughing reaction, but instead made his consciousness gradually blur.

At the last moment, when he was about to completely lose consciousness, his eyelids suddenly felt a mixture of light and shadow, followed by all kinds of noisy sounds and smells.

Su Ming opened his eyes suddenly.

Suddenly, everything was silent, and only the sound of the tide surging on the beach remained.

In front of him, there was only a sandy beach and an endless ocean.

It was as if the lights, shadows, sounds, and smells just now were just his hallucinations.

"It's such a different way to enter, I almost thought I was going to suffocate."

Breaking away from the previous suffocation state, Su Ming was still a little confused, he habitually raised his right hand to help his glasses, remembering that this was the game world and put it down again.

Maybe it's a costume that the player needs to buy extra, but at this time, he only has a set of pure white short sleeves and shorts, and he doesn't have any shoes and socks on his feet.

"Oh, maybe it's time for me to have a myopia operation, and it will take me a while to get used to life without myopia."

Shaking his head and smiling, Su Ming began to observe this login interface that seemed to be a little different.

He looked around, and saw only the small floating island beneath him, full of sand and gravel, and beyond that, there was an endless deep ocean.

And this pure blue background above the sky, I don't know if it's a sky, there is no sun, no clouds, just a pure deep blue.

The whole world is blue, and the ocean flashes a QR code-like matrix information from time to time between the waves.

[This game uses the player's memory and subconscious information to randomly synthesize a copy of the world, if you want to play this game, you will be deemed to have agreed to this clause by default]

A cold and ruthless electronic sound pulled Su Ming's consciousness back in front of him.

In front of him, there was a translucent panel, on which there were two options in addition to the content of the sentence just now.

Agree and proceed to the next step and Decline and log out.

He has already seen this advertisement called "Deep Sea Game", and even because of this, he naturally will not quit at this time.

Unlike conventional virtual games, the materials for this game's synthetic dungeon world are actually collected from the player's memories and subconscious.

As a enthusiast game enthusiast, and also to find a possible cure for his illness, Su Ming fell in love with this game at a glance.

Yes, he is sick, but it may not be a "disease" in the strict sense of the word, at most it is an "abnormality" compared to a normal person.

He suffers from hyperamnesia.

Hyperthymesia is an extremely rare medical anomaly that belongs to the branch of selective memory, which is clinically manifested by the brain having an automatic memory system. People with hyperamnesia use the left frontal lobe, which is usually used to process language, and the posterior cephalic area at the back of the brain, which is usually used to store picture memories, for long-term memory. All of this seems to be happening subconsciously. People with hyperamnesia do not have the ability to forget. I can remember what I have experienced clearly, and I can be specific to any detail.

This passage is Baidu's definition of hyperamnesia, Su Ming searched for it, so he also remembered every word.

He is twenty-three years old, an online novel writer, when he was eighteen years old, his parents died of occupational diseases, he was in a coma due to excessive grief, but when he woke up, he found that he had a memory far beyond ordinary people.

Although this special illness has brought great convenience to his study and work, it has also inevitably brought him great and continuous pain.

After all, not all memories contain beauty and happiness, and it can even be said that there are more and more negative memories in this world.

Time can make people more or less forget some of the negative memories, but Su Ming will not forget, so he can only bear the pain caused by those negative memories all the time.

Unfortunately, there is no treatment for hyperamnesia due to the lack of clear etiology and the small number of cases worldwide.

"Alas, I unconsciously remembered those things again." Su Ming shook his head and squeezed out a smile to adjust his mentality.

chose this game, on the one hand, because his memory is too good due to hyperamnesia, and he is a little tired of other games he has played, and on the other hand, he collects information from the player's memory and subconscious for the copy world of this game.

There are three types of information in the human mind, short-term memory, long-term memory, and vague memory in the subconscious.

For hyperamnesia, because what you see is what you remember, all three are one, or in other words, there is no vague memory in his subconscious.

He wanted to see if there was anything abnormal in his memory and subconscious, and maybe he could find a cure for his illness.

No longer immersed in the memories of the past, he chose to "agree and move on to the next step".

However, the next moment, he was like a dying person seeing a marquee, and the scenes of the past flashed uncontrollably and quickly in front of his eyes.

Thankfully, the flickering speed was so fast that he didn't even have time to recall the feelings of those memory moments, and the process was already over.

[Player information has been collected and is merging into the subconscious sea]

Then, with the electronic sound, new content appeared in front of Su Ming again.

[You can choose to enter the novice scene, please be prepared, this process may be accompanied by a feeling similar to drowning or other unknown feelings, if you feel uncomfortable in this process, you can quit at any time, or quit at this moment]

There are still two options, [Agree and start the next step] and [Exit now].

"It seems that this game is really a little different from other virtual games.,Even the novice scene hasn't been entered.,Just the information collection process and the game process have been asked many times.,This is much more serious than those games that only have an anti-addiction system.。

There is no doubt that he chose to "agree and start the next step".

After the selection, he was still not pulled into the so-called novice scene, and a sentence appeared on the panel again.

[If you want to start the game, please completely immerse yourself in the subconscious ocean]

A translucent arrow emerges from the panel, pointing to the sea in front of it.

"Is this sea originally collected from the player's information?"

Looking at the deep ocean not far away, Su Ming walked over.

Feeling the sand on the soles of his feet barefoot, as a virtual game, the extremely real touch was already satisfying to him, and even if he couldn't find a cure, it was a good game.

After walking a few steps, he came to the ocean.

Glancing at the endless sea water, Su Ming resisted the idea of going in and swimming to explore, although as an information current, there should be no such thing as sharks or deep-sea monsters here, but in this kind of deep sea, human beings will be more or less inspired by deep-sea phobia, and he doesn't want to add a little more bad feelings to his unforgettable memories.

When the water reached his knees, he slowly lay down.

"Anyway, it's just about submerging in the sea, not saying whether it's going to be upright or lying down."

The system prompt sounded at the right time:

[Detected that you are already in the subconscious sea, do you start a new scene?] 】

There are still two options, [Yes, start a new scene] and [No, I want to enter a scene already experienced], but the second option is grayed out and not selected.

"Of course I did."

Closing his eyes and letting himself gradually be submerged in the seawater, the same drowning suffocation sensation came again as the unscented subconscious seawater poured into his nose.

【Diving】

As a voice flashed, Su Ming's gaze suddenly plunged into darkness.

But the darkness was short-lived, and his eyelids immediately felt the change of light and shadow, and countless noisy sounds and various smells appeared one after another, but these things did not awaken his consciousness, but made him feel like he was about to wake up from a dream.

This time, it seemed like a long time.

The moment before he felt that he was about to be completely suffocated, the cold voice sounded again:

[Newbie scene loaded]
