"Cucumber slices, you should know that the operation of the game helmet is related to brain waves, right?" Li Nuo said.

"Yes, I know." The cucumber slice groaned, and his mind spun rapidly:

"Are you trying to say that the virus in me interferes with my brainwaves through the gaming helmet? On the one hand, it can make me forget to take off the helmet, and on the other hand, it can also force me to go online? ”

Li Nuo was very satisfied with the brain replenishment ability of cucumber slices, and said with a smile:

"Eight or nine is not far from ten, that's it. So, you can imagine what a terrible virus this is. Its medium of propagation most likely includes human brainwaves. ”

"Human brainwaves are the medium of transmission..."The cucumber slice's eyes changed drastically.

At this moment, many pessimistic thoughts surged in his mind!

What happens if a virus can be transmitted through a human brain?

The two players indirectly link their brainwaves together through the game helmet, so that one can easily spread the virus to the other.

This type of communication manifests itself in the game, which is...

That's player interaction like "friend request"!

Cucumber Slices' eyes widened, and he brought up the friend application list, looking at the friend application message that had been displayed as "invalid".

"So it was, so it was... No wonder I just received an inexplicable friend application on my front foot, and I got the virus on my back foot..."

Li Nuo followed the cucumber slices' gaze and looked at the game interface in front of the other party.

Originally, the interface was only visible to the player.

But after signing the so-called "data tracking license agreement", Li Nuo was able to see the game interface of the cucumber slice.

Naturally, Li Nuo also noticed the friend application message.

Li Nuo thought for a while, followed the brain circuit of the cucumber slice and said:

"The player interaction that happens in the game is essentially the brainwave connection of the players. Through our investigation, we found that the main way of transmission of this virus is the interaction behavior of players in the game. ”

The cucumber slice settled his mind and asked:

"Then in terms of the player activity of the game "Star Sea", isn't the spread of the virus fast and flying?"

Li Nuo shook his head slightly:

"No, the reality is not so pessimistic. It is true that the virus can be transmitted with the help of brain waves, but not all brain waves can receive the virus. According to our statistics, probably only 1% of players are eligible to receive the virus. You're one of them. ”

"What exactly are the conditions for receiving the virus?" Cucumber slices asked.

Li Nuo did not intend to hide anything in this regard, and said bluntly:

"All players who have deleted a game character are eligible."

"Removed the game character..."The cucumber slice took a long breath, and a look of realization appeared in his eyes:

"I see. I did delete a character from the game, and that was when the game first launched. At the beginning of the game, there were 9 spawn points, but there were only 8 people in our team, so we could only make a game strategy with 8 spawn points. I couldn't recruit anyone to help us make a strategy for the 9th spawn point, so I had to delete my first game character and complete the 9th spawn strategy myself. ”

Cucumber slices raised their hands to rub the top of their heads, sighed lightly and said:

"That's what made me the target of the virus. But what is the principle of this? ”

During the conversation with Cucumber Slices, Li Nuo is also learning the truth about the game "Star Sea" through the core of the "Command" plane.

The players are a group of souls who have been kept in captivity within the nucleus of the plane.

The creation and rebirth of characters in the game is a "spiritual exchange" at work.

The special ability of the core of the plane is "Spirit Exchange", which can use soul energy to create soulless shells in the material world.

The shell created by the "Spiritual Exchange" is called the Spiritual Construct by the "Command" - this thing is a game character in the eyes of the player.

The process by which players put on a game helmet and project their consciousness onto the game character is called "soul projection".

When the player's character dies, the "soul projection" will be interrupted, and the game character will be reshaped in the safe zone with the help of the "spirit exchange" of the plane core.

Notice that it is reinvention, not resurrection.

Psionic constructs are extraordinary in their own right.

During the period of the Supreme Star Palace, it was the standard security guard guarding the gate of the Star Palace.

Before players choose to delete a character, the psychic construct can be reshaped in a specific location over and over again, never dying.

This is the secret that players can be resurrected after death.

So why does the Cult of the Dark Protos specifically target players who have deleted characters in the past?

The answer is very simple.

When the player deletes a character, the psychic construct dies.

And "death" is the realm of the dark gods.

Dark gods are generally sensitive to the phenomenon of death.

There are as many deaths as cattle and as vast as rivers, and the dark gods will not pay attention to such sparse and ordinary things.

However, if the spirit structure, which is immortal and immortal in itself, dies, then its death event is as dazzling in the eyes of the dark gods as a flame in the night, and it is difficult not to notice it.

Therefore, when a player deletes a character, causing the death of their original spiritual structure, the Dark Gods will notice him.

Although the Dark Gods have not yet been resurrected, they can still use the Book of Darkness to guide the Dark Gods to set up rituals to target players who have deleted their characters, and then exert influence.

All of the above information comes from the core of the "Command" plane.

Li Nuo read it quickly, knew it in his heart, and explained to the cucumber slice:

"I can't tell you more about the specific content, this involves the confidentiality of the game company. I can tell you a vague answer, though. ”

Cucumber slices "mm-hmm" twice, listen patiently.

Li Nuo Says:

"Do you remember the story of 'a game character is bound to a game helmet'?"

Cucumber slices nodded:

"Of course I do. In order to create a new character, I also bought a new helmet. Oh yes. I opted for the trade-in service at the time. At the same time that the new helmet was delivered, the courier also took the old helmet away. ”

Li Nuo said in a slightly accentuated tone:

"That's the problem with the old helmet. The game helmet is bound to the player's brainwave, which is the password to unlock the game helmet. Your brainwave characteristics are recorded in the game helmet. Although these helmets were scrapped by the company, your brainwave signatures were accidentally leaked. The virus publishers don't know where they got your brainwave signatures, and eventually created a virus that targets you. ”

Cucumber slices whispered:

"Hey, so there's a ghost in your company?"

Li Nuo bowed his head silently, paused for half a second, and said:

"Someone else is responsible for finding the inner ghost. You and I just need to deal with the in-game threats. ”

Cucumber Slices didn't want to get involved in the company's infighting outside the game, so he said very decisively:

"Okay, I understand, I'll just do my job. So what do you want me to do now? ”

Li Nuo asked a seemingly unrelated question:

"Do you think the bust that appeared just now looks familiar?"

"Familiar..."The cucumber slice pondered for a few seconds:

"It's a familiar look, he's a lot like someone who used to work part-time on my team. But, weird. Why was he wearing the uniform of the Dark Descent? Could it be that this thing is a virus, and it is related to the Dark God Sect? That's a bit of a, how can things about the game affect reality. ”

Li Nuo shook his head slowly, and said in a low tone:

"Cucumber slices, things are sometimes so outrageous. The game "Star Sea" is taken over by the brain. But you have to know that when artificial intelligence reaches a certain point, it becomes a little uncontrollable. ”

The cucumber slice was confused and thought for a while, and then a clever man came back to his senses and said quickly:

"I see! Is there something wrong with the brain responsible for playing the role of the Dark God Sect? ”

"You can understand it that way." 李诺 says:

"In reality, we investigated and found that it may be because the company instilled too many settings related to the Dark Descent Cult into the brain, and the brain developed a cognitive tendency to think that it was the mastermind behind the Dark Descent Cult. It is suspected that it has brainwashed the publisher of the virus through some means, making the other party and others think that they are members of the Dark God Sect and are doing things for the Dark God Sect. That's why you see the virus publisher wearing the uniform of the Dark Cleric, appearing in front of you. ”

"Eh, I guessed right." The cucumber slice suddenly realized, and the doubts on his face were swept away.

Li Nuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally got everything back.

It's not easy~~~

In order to dispel the player's doubts, but also not to let the player know too many secrets related to the core of the plane, Li Nuo had to attribute everything to the brain...

It really tired him enough.

Li Nuo coughed lightly and said to the cucumber slices:

"What I want you to do is not complicated."

"Please." Cucumber slices listen attentively.

Li Nuo continued:

"Later, I will release a series of missions to your team through the master of the Black Hole Magic Academy. This series of quests will lead you to investigate the Cult of the Dark God and the Angelic Enterprise Consortium. All you need to do is follow the task guidelines and report to the dean to complete the task. ”

"It's as simple as that?" Cucumber slices asked.

"Yes, it's that simple." Li Nuo nodded slightly.

Cucumber slices asked again:

"Why investigate the Angel Business Consortium?"

Li Nuo groaned for a moment and whispered:

"You know this secret, I know, and the company executives outside also know it, but you can't tell anyone else."

"Uh-huh, please." Cucumber slices lowered their voice and said:

"I promise not to divulge any secrets."

Li Nuo whispered:

"According to the plot plan designed by the company, the Angel Enterprise Consortium will not cooperate with the Dark God Descent Sect, but judging from the background data, the Zhi Brain, which is responsible for simulating these two game forces, has frequent data exchanges. The data was encrypted by the brain, and our engineers are scrambling to crack it. At the same time, we also have to find as many clues as possible in the game. That's where your team comes in. ”

The cucumber slice pursed her lips and nodded earnestly.

Li Nuo Says:

"While you're investigating, we, the GMs, won't be idle. It's just that the dimensions of our investigation are different from yours. ”

"Well, I understand, I understand." Cucumber slices have a look of "don't say it, I understand".

Li Nuo didn't know what the other party's brain had made up, so he waved his hand and said:

"That's it. When you're ready, you can hold the house badge and say 'I'm going to take a series of quests' in your mind to trigger the quest line we've assigned you." Anything, you can report to the dean, that's my vest. ”

"Okay, GM big. By the way, Dad, can I make a video of the task process and send it out? ”

Li Nuo thought for a while and said:

"Yes, but be careful to keep it confidential and not to divulge information related to viruses and bugs. If it's just a story, I won't interfere. ”

"No problem, big, I remember."

Under the gaze of the cucumber slices, Li Nuo's figure flickered and disappeared out of thin air.

After Li Nuo left, cucumber slices repeatedly tried to go online and offline.

Seeing that he was indeed no longer bothered by the virus, the cucumber slices were completely relieved.

He took a closer look at the interior of the ship and found that the charred black left by the laser gun had been repaired, and the holographic projector was back to normal.

"How else to say that GM is awesome. The spaceship was repaired without a sound. ”

Cucumber slice gave GM a big and silent thumbs up in his heart, and then went offline to edit the video with the team members.

…

Cucumber slices in the studio.

Cucumber Slices, whose real name is Huang Zhongming, is now feeling happy for the upcoming questline.

When the team members saw him walking out of the conference room with a smile on his lips, they cast puzzled glances.

Cucumber Slices put the game helmet in his hand back on his desk, came to the team members and said:

"Big guy, I have good news."

"What's the good news, boss?"

"What did you do online? Did you find any hidden quests again? ”

Cucumber slices said happily:

"I did find a hidden mission. When everyone finishes the work at hand, we go online together and take over that task. This task is only something we can do, and we can open an exclusive column and follow up on the report for a long time. ”

The team let out a cheer.

Cucumber slices smile and applaud in celebration.

At this moment, a member of the team who was browsing the game forum screamed and said:

"Damn, look at the forum. Someone has successfully joined the Angel Business Consortium! ”

Cucumber Slices raised an eyebrow, remembered what GM had said to him, and immediately walked over to the team member to read the forum post.

"There are really people joining the Angel Business Consortium... Isn't this a villain force? A teammate said.

Another person joins the discussion:

"Since you can join the Angel Enterprise Consortium, can the Dark God Descent Sect also join?"

Cucumber slices beat my heart.

Join the Cult of the Dark Godborn?

Isn't this an initiative to jump into the fire pit?

But after thinking about it, Cucumber Slices' heart moved slightly, and a bold idea popped up in his mind:

The GM has assigned a lot of quest lines to their team, so could it be that they join these two villains as undercover agents?! (End of chapter)
