Volume 1: The Endless Wilderness Chapter 1: Crisis

Next Chapter

"Warning! The data has been invaded by an unknown virus, and the server is being forcibly shut down. ”

Su Chen, who was recuperating from his injuries in the safe house, realized the seriousness of the problem for the first time, and hurriedly called the system, wanting to transmit his consciousness back to the real-world body.

Su Chen's urgent call was not answered by the system.

During this period, more and more irregular cracks appeared in the scene in front of Su Chen's eyes.

It won't be long before Su Chen's consciousness will disappear with this world.

"Detects that the player is encountering an annihilation crisis that cannot be opposed, and starts random teleportation." The inactive system finally reacted at the last moment when the world collapsed.

At the same time, Su Chen's eyes darkened, and his consciousness was blurred.

The process of teleportation was simple and rude, and Su Chen, who had lost the concept of time, suddenly opened his eyes at a certain moment.

The world in front of him was pitch black, and Su Chen couldn't even see the outline of his palm.

"System, did you teleport me to the underworld?"

"The system is being updated, please be patient."

Su Chen didn't respond with a cold face, he didn't want to break the tranquility around him and attract some terrifying existence that could not be looked at directly.

I don't know how long it took, but the system that had been silent for a long time was finally updated.

"The system has a new naming option, please choose the host as soon as possible."

The system prompt has not finished yet, Su Chen has already closed his eyes, and silently recites the system in his heart.

With Su Chen's call, the pitch-black world after closing his eyes suddenly brightened, and Su Chen's consciousness turned into a phantom, and he pointed at the naming bar of the system with his blurred finger.

"The Killing Peak, aka the Killing System."

"Devouring all things, aka devouring systems."

"Summoning magic, aka summoning system."

The system gives you three naming options, each of which represents a different path.

Once selected, it cannot be changed.

Su Chen didn't make a choice in a hurry, he was silent for a while, "System, I order you to open the teleportation array immediately and send me back to the real world." ”

Su Chen's speech was very slow, and he pronounced the word command extremely seriously.

"I'm sorry host, you're in the real world, and the system's teleportation function can't be used in the real world."

Su Chen wanted to say that the system was, but he knew in his heart that what the system said was true.

Although there have been changes in the system after the update, once Su Chen gives an order, the system must obey unconditionally.

This is the designer's highest authority over the system settings, and cannot be changed even if the system is updated.

"System, is this the real world I live in or a different world? Also, why are you still influencing me after you leave the virtual world? In what form do I exist now? ”

Since you can't leave, you must confirm your situation as soon as possible in order to survive better.

"The host can understand this as another world."

"The virtual world has been destroyed, the system cannot return to its original body, and it is forced to merge with the host and become a part of the host."

"The host exists in the form of a human being, and to be more specific, you have taken away the human who attempted suicide, and your consciousness has completely merged with his body."

The system paused for a moment and added, "Rest assured, host, you have completely controlled this body, and the consciousness of the original owner has been completely erased by me. ”

The head of the system is the Tao, but Su Chen is suspicious, but at the moment he has no choice but to believe in the system.

After understanding his own situation, Su Chen had to face one of three choices again.

Kill, devour, summon, all three options have their own characteristics.

Although the system gave three options, it did not provide a detailed explanation, and Su Chen could not take advantage of it and avoid disadvantages.

Su Chen hesitated for a long time, and finally chose to kill.

The choice to kill was not because Su Chen felt that it was superior to devouring and summoning, but because he had been killing monsters and upgrading before the destruction of the virtual world, and he was used to this way of upgrading.

Killing may not be the best option, but it is definitely the most reliable and easy to get started at the moment.

"You've been granted new permissions, please check them out in a timely manner." As soon as Su Chen made his choice, there was a new change in the killing system.

Su Chen didn't think much about it, and pressed his illusory finger on the flickering permission panel.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining full access to the K1 base."

The K1 base refers to the small base where Su Chen is now.

After learning all the information about the K1 base from the system, Su Chen opened his eyes and whispered, "Enter a new manager, code zero." ”

A continuous electronic murmur came from the silent K1 base, a process that lasted for half an hour before the K1 base's artificial intelligence responded.

"A new manager code has been entered."

"Turn on all the basic equipment." Su Chen gave a new order.

As soon as Su Chen's words fell, the dark world that he couldn't see his fingers was fleeting, and it was replaced by a small and beautifully decorated bedroom.

Su Chen didn't stay in the bedroom for long, he walked around the K1 base according to the route map provided by the system.

The K1 base did not bring surprises to Su Chen, but there are two points to be praised.

There is a private clinic converted from a living room and a small gym, which is currently fully equipped for healing and fitness.

After Su Chen visited his private base, he instructed the artificial intelligence of the K1 base to provide a detailed comprehensive report.

The comprehensive report contains a lot of content, and Su Chen is most concerned about the four major needs that are inseparable from human beings.

They are electricity, water, security and food.

The K1 base uses the latest solar power generation in the world, and the storage of solar energy for one day is enough to maintain the basic operation of the base for three days.

As for the water source, the second basement level of the K1 site has a special facility for pumping groundwater, and there is also a complete set of fully automated equipment for filtering and disinfecting the dirty water pumped from the ground.

The power consumption of this set of equipment is very high and will only be activated if the base stores enough power and there is a lack of water resources.

As for safety, the K1 base is built on the ground floor, which is five meters above the ground, so as long as you don't die, the safety is guaranteed.

Food is the shortcoming of the K1 base.

There is no suitable soil for growing fruits and vegetables, no sunlight, and no space and feed for animals in captivity.

Food supplies can only be relied on from the outside world.

At the beginning of the construction of the K1 base, the utility room was full of grain, most of which were doomsday rations with a shelf life of up to 20 years, enough for a family of five to feed for five years.

It's a pity that there was an accident on the way, and most of this grain was transferred to the outside world.

This is not over, Su Chen, who has been teleported here, is now facing the shortage of ammunition and food, not simply a shortage of food.

If it weren't for that, the original owner of Su Chen's body would not have committed suicide, and Su Chen would not have had a chance to fully control his body after his suicide attempt.

The content of the comprehensive report is very many and miscellaneous, Su Chen patiently read it little by little, and has a preliminary understanding of the K1 base and the situation he is currently in.

"Little K, turn on the monitoring mode, I want to see all the monitoring screens." In order to facilitate the use of the artificial intelligence of the K1 base, Su Chen changed its name.

The electronic screen in front of Su Chen's eyes quickly changed, and the originally dense text turned into a small box.

Su Chen glanced at it, and more than half of the sixty small boxes were black screens.

There is no doubt that the black screen is all outside the K1 base.

Fortunately, Su Chen's luck is not particularly bad, and there are still two cameras running outside the K1 base.

Su Chen stretched out his hand to enlarge one of the screens.

I don't know if it was foggy outside or the camera was malfunctioning, and the picture that came into Su Chen's eyes was gray.

Su Chen didn't give up, and enlarged the screen of another camera, and the result was also gray on the whole screen.

The images transmitted by the two cameras installed in different locations were surprisingly consistent, and Su Chen believed that this was not a camera failure, but a problem with the gray fog outside.

Su Chen's current situation is not optimistic, there is no food in the base, he is in a state of hunger, in order to survive, he has to go out to find food today.

To be on the safe side, he had to figure out the difference between the gray fog and the white fog he knew before going out.

Su Chen threw his doubts to Xiao K.

Little K lived up to his expectations, and its huge information base happened to have information about the gray fog.

The local aborigines named the gray fog as the world-destroying poisonous fog.

There is clearly an element of exaggeration in this.

In fact, all it takes is a rudimentary gas mask to avoid the so-called poisonous fog of annihilation.

As for the origin of the world-destroying poisonous fog and the harm to the human body, there were so many records in the information database that Su Chen couldn't judge its authenticity, so he could only write it down silently.
