The whole world thinks I'm inscrutable

Inside the tall hall with green tiles and vermilion eaves, there are people coming and going, full of NPCs of different shapes, who seem to be alive, and players like Xia Jun.

After chatting with the monster beside him for a while, Xia Jun was almost completely overwhelmed by the intelligence of the characters in this game.The more we chat, the more I feel that this game is really costing a lot of money, it is too sincere, and it is not a loss to buy it for [-] yuan.Then follow the arrows, walk to the task announcement board, look at the "task" above, and read it carefully.

After watching it for a while, he said to the elf: "Why does it feel a little strange? The difficulty level is too different, and the rewards are also very different..."

The elf replied: "After all, it is a game that has just opened the server, and the NPCs in it are not very familiar with this kind of operation. So the task content and task rewards are all determined by them, there is no fixed market standard. If you want to accept a task , but you don’t want this reward, you can communicate privately with the publisher, which is all feasible.”

Xia Jun muttered: "I wonder if your game makers have obsessive-compulsive disorder, even this one has to pursue 100% simulation..."

Elf: "Please don't say bad things about our leader, or I will wear little shoes for you, or ignore you on purpose, thank you."

Xia Jun: "..."

All right, he throws in the towel.

I found a seemingly simple task, took it to the front desk, and handed it over to the "NPC" over there.

During the handover, Xia Jun suddenly remembered something when he saw the "player" who was doing the same thing next to him, and asked, "How can I contact my friend?"

"Enter the opponent's game name or game number."

Xia Jun opened his mouth and said to Xiao Shun on the other side of the lounge: "Brother Xiao, what's your game name, let's add friends."

Xiao Shun didn't know what happened on the other side, but his voice was filled with a hint of shock that Xia Jun couldn't understand, and he said after a while: "... Nancheng."

Xia Jun entered Nancheng on the system interface, quickly added Xiao Shun as a friend, and found that there was a team formation button, so he said, "Brother Xiao, do you want to do the mission together?"

Xiao Shun: "Okay."

The monster who had been following Xia Jun all the time saw that Xia Jun was about to go out, so he hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"

Xia Jun raised the task card in his hand: "Go to the task."

"Can I come with you?" the monster asked cautiously.

Xia Jun naturally welcomed it: "Okay."

Walking outside the house, the monster naturally hugged "short-legged" Xia Jun, put it in his arms, and said, "I'll see you off."

Xia Jun's eyes widened unconsciously, and he was shocked to see that the ground under his feet was getting lower and lower, and he was carried up by the monster behind him like this!

Unconsciously, his hands and feet were a little weak, and he couldn't help but say to himself: "My God, this game is too realistic."

It's a good thing he doesn't have acrophobia, otherwise he would definitely be yelling and embarrassing.

The elf reminded: "If you fall from this height, your body may be damaged, please pay attention."

Xia Jun became more nervous when he heard it, and stayed in the monster's embrace, not daring to move: "Mmm, um."

The monster asked, "Where are you going?"

Xia Jun followed the system prompt and pointed to the southeast: "That."

The monster spread its wings and flew forward with Xia Jun.The feeling of being held in the air and constantly flying is too real, and the surrounding scenes are also "loaded" without flaws, which is too much like actual flying.Xia Jun, who had never been on a plane a few times, was a little nervous. His body lying on the sofa was tense and motionless, and his breathing became slow and careful.

While flying, he confirmed the position on the map.It took 3 minutes to fly to the place guided by the system, and felt a little weak after landing.

Walking to a snow-white, well-behaved, and vivid animal, he stared at the name on the top of its head and asked, "Brother Xiao?"

The expression of the little animal controlled by Xiao Shun looked very strange. He put down the flower he was holding in his hand and observed just now, and said, "You are here."

Xia Jun glanced down and said, "This flower looks so familiar! I seem to have seen it somewhere."

Xiao Shun: "...the garden of Ke Shao's house."

Xia Jun recalled it for a while, nodded hurriedly, and said, "Yes, yes, it is exactly the same as the one raised by Shao'an's family."

The monster asked curiously, "Does this kind of flower exist in the world?"

When Xiao Shun heard this sentence, his expression changed subtly.

Xia Jun was kind, adapted to this game setting, and answered the NPC's question: "Yes."

It is estimated that the game production team directly imported the plant data on the earth into the game.

Xiao Shun looked at the monster in front of him, feeling so complicated that he didn't know what to say.

He never imagined that Ke Shao'an would be so courageous to do such a thing.

This is not any other place, really, really, 100% is that "demon world"! !

Ke Shaochen actually let humans come to the demon world in this way to communicate with the monsters, and the monsters seemed to cooperate very well. It seemed that they had known for a long time that there would be human visits, and prepared a bunch of them. Put the missions in the mission release station, waiting for the presence of human beings, what the hell is going on!

What exactly does Ke Shaochen want to do?

Xia Jun shared the task with Xiao Shun, observed Xiao Shun's expression, and said strangely: "Brother Xiao, what's wrong with you? You look a little weird."

Xiao Shun concealed and said: "Mmm... I'm not used to it, this game looks too real."

Xia Jun: "Yes, yes! This game is really amazing, it looks very lifelike, and the intelligence of the NPC is also frighteningly high."

I believe it won't be long before the Internet will be overwhelming, and players will be discussing this game everywhere.

The monster asked curiously: "Tianhong, what are you talking about? What kind of game?"

Xia Jun realized that he had slipped his mouth, a little embarrassed: "Uh..."

Xiao Shun deliberately said: "We are talking about things in the world."

The monster enviously said: "Really, that's great, I also want to visit the world."

Xia Jun felt even more embarrassed: "Uh, um..."

Xiao Shun asked: "How did you know that we would visit the Demon Realm?"

There was unconsciously a touch of respect in the monster's words: "It was announced by the king."

Xiao Shun's expression changed from surprise to horror.

Having dealt with monsters a lot, he certainly knows that there is only one, supreme king in the monster world.

Rather than being a "King", it should actually be called a "God".

The existence that existed thousands of years ago is not the living god.

He could never have imagined that Ke Shaochen had a connection with "that one".

That is the controller of the entire demon world.

When Xiao Shun's mood was ups and downs and turbulent, Xia Jun listened carefully to the monster's explanation, with an appearance of "so that's the setting", nodded repeatedly, and commented: "Then your king doesn't usually show up. ?”

"Only the thirteen lords are eligible to enter the palace to have an audience. It is naturally impossible for a little monster like us to meet the king." The monster said, "However, our previous patriarch was lucky enough to meet the king once."

When he said this, he looked very proud.

Xia Jun was very curious: "That's right, I don't know if we will have a chance to see each other in the future..."

On the game's official homepage, there might be an image of this big boss, if there is, you must go and have a look.

But it never occurred to him that he had actually seen him countless times at Ke Shao'an's house.

"The king likes humans very much, maybe he can!" The monster encouraged: "And the most important thing is, you are so cute! Who would not like you!"

"..." Xia Jun looked embarrassed, being praised for his cuteness by a guy who should be the same gender, but with such a handsome appearance, his mood was really delicate: "Well, but let's finish the task first! After all, there is a time limit Well—speaking of the time flow in the game, is it the same as in the real world?"

Xiao Shun: "...the same."

Looking at Xia Jun who was completely immersed in the game world and enjoying the fresh fun, Xiao Shun thought to himself, except for someone like Xia Jun who is completely unaware, the rest of the players who have entered the demon world probably will not be so calm in their hearts.

Especially those top-ranked scholars, scientists, and mercenaries... They must have been terrified at this time.

They are not easy to fool like ordinary people like Xia Jun.

Physics, ecology, "NPC" intelligence... No matter what angle you start from, as long as you trace it to the end, you will definitely be able to discover the truth of this world.

How much courage does Ke Shao'an have to do such an earth-shattering event.

……

...

Greed, ranked second in the world, saw through the true face of this "game" shortly after entering the game, or the moment he entered it.

As a team member, Xiong Xiong jumped up from his chair and shouted in disbelief: "The demon world?!"

In one sentence, everyone was startled.

Team leader Chi Yan wore a helmet and turned his head in Axiong's direction: "You said this is the demon world?"

Ah Xiong kept nodding, with undisguised surprise in his voice: "Yes! It's exactly the same as the demon world!"

Chi Yan pondered: "Is this a game that directly uses the demon world as the background..."

Ah Xiong yelled: "This is the demon world!!"

The team member next to him said: "But this is a game?"

Some players who were unlucky and did not get a helmet and could only play with their mobile phones or computers said: "It should be a scene from the demon world. Now technology can realize the combination of reality and virtuality."

The little hacker brother Gu Jue was watching the surrounding scene while playing, and said with a hint of caution in his tone: "That's not right."

Chi Yan: "What did you find?"

Gu Jue: "The sensitivity of this body is too high, it's no different from real manipulation! To put it simply, it's like someone dug our 'brains' into this body!"

Ah Xiong didn't bother to pay attention to those things, and reiterated again: "This place is 100% the demon world!!"

Chi Yan analyzed: "In other words, this game uses some means to pull our 'thinking' onto the 'body' in the demon world?"

Eliza asked worriedly: "Captain, is it too dangerous? What if something goes wrong with this thing and accidentally burns our brains..."

Chi Yan said decisively: "You guys switch to computers to play. Gu Jue and A Xiong continue to use the helmets and observe the situation with me."

Eliza said anxiously: "Leader! That's not what I meant!"

"I know." Chi Yan said, "Call Shaoan for me."

Eliza had no choice but to put aside her persuasion temporarily, took off her helmet and followed the instructions, picked up a specific encrypted mobile phone, and called Ke Shaochen.

The phone was connected in no time.

Chi Yan cut to the chase and asked directly, "Is the world the demon world?"

Ke Shao looked around and said to him: "The leader also plays games."

Chi Yan spoke quickly: "Aren't you curious about who did this kind of thing? You don't want to know what the purpose of those people is? According to your temperament, you will definitely not ignore it! We can join hands!"

Ke Shaochen said in a leisurely tone, not in a hurry: "Do you still remember those world-class missions on Link in the past few months?"

"..."

Chi Yan recalled it for a while, his face changed slightly, and his voice became meaningful: "It turned out to be that time..."

Ke Shao said calmly: "After the investigation, I found it quite interesting, so I decided to leave it alone. You can go and see what's going on in the game, and then make a decision. I think there are players who found the truth like you, The deeper truth behind the truth will surely be discovered soon.”

After Chi Yan listened, he was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "I see."

Eliza was in a hurry: "Leader!"

Chi Yan raised his hand to block Elisa's next words: "It's okay."

He believed Ke Shaochen.

Elisa stomped her feet angrily and said, "Then you can't stop me from playing with the helmet."

Chi Yan had no choice but to continue lying down and said, "It's up to you."

……

...

Two hours after the official release of the game, the Internet completely became a world occupied by "World".The headlines of major news and the homepage of the website are full of relevant information about the game.

Everyone was impressed by the vivid background picture in the game and the intelligence of the smart NPC.At first glance, there were praises in amazement, which quickly attracted more netizens who were still waiting to join the game.

"The monsters inside are so smart that I doubt that these NPCs are actually controlled by real people."

"The physics engine is also doing a great job."

"Don't say it's a game. When I saw the picture in the video just now, I thought it was shot in real scene."

"Have you noticed that the appearance and voice of the NPCs inside are not repeated?"

"Oh my God, a monster transformed in front of me just now, the special effects are amazing! Hollywood sci-fi movies don't feel so real!"

"But don't you think it's scary? The AI ​​in the game is so smart... If it develops in the future, the status of human beings is in jeopardy."

"The greatness of human beings is that everyone has independent thinking and will not be easily ordered and controlled by machines. Therefore, no matter how powerful AI is, it can only show off its power in the online world and cannot threaten human beings."

"Then if the navigation tells you to turn left ahead, do you turn left? The Internet has already been integrated into the whole society and affects everyone."

"My friend is a helmet player. It is said that when he plays the game, his experience is completely different from ours. It's as if his body has directly entered the game world. QAQ, I'm so envious."

"Is it really that powerful? After all, it shouldn't be much different from AR games, right?"

“To be honest, it’s completely different from the sense of use of AR. It’s really like the body is integrated into the game character. The perspective of the character is our perspective, and the body’s manipulation is not at all stagnant. I’m almost stunned. "

"Wow! Capture the world freestyle champion in the front row! I didn't expect you to play games!"

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen much of the top 1000 million bigwigs. Didn't you say that there are only more than 3000 people giving up their places?"

"They should all be in the game at this time."

"But this reaction is too flat."

"It stands to reason that those scholars and scientists shouldn't be the first to express their opinions at this time? This is a good time to get link points."

"It must be slowly researching, everyone, wait patiently, and go play the game for a while."

It's a pity that the people are destined to not be able to wait for the insights of those elites.

In today's society, more and more people rely on the Internet to obtain information. The number of people who watch TV news or read newspapers may be less than one-tenth of the former.And through face-to-face communication between people, the amount of intelligence information that can be obtained is even weaker.

Before we know it, we no longer look at the world with our own eyes, but look at everything around us with "selected news".I think that I know the world affairs because I have the Internet, but I don’t think that I will be raised by the Internet without knowing it.

What the world looks like, harmony, war, optimism, despair, does not depend on the actual situation, but on what those who control the news want the public to see.

The official media have reported on the phenomenon-level popularity of the World game internationally, and their attitudes are surprisingly consistent. They all positively praised the enthusiasm and correctness of the game, saying that this is an epoch-making game that everyone should experience and play.

Some of the high-ranking users who don't know much about the positioning of this game, but Guan Zhongjianbao has a slight sense of the truth, are ready to publish some "terrible" inside stories on the Internet. After observing the attitudes of all "same level people" around them, they are Their reaction was thoughtful and terrified, and they didn't dare to say anything indiscriminately when they saw this.

Everyone seems to be avoiding something, or hiding something.

The more they realize the hidden power behind this game, the less they dare to act rashly and do things indiscriminately.

The power gap is too great.

The brilliance of the producer of this game is that he did not use any violent means to threaten or deter anyone, but directly defeated the opponent's fighting spirit from the very beginning, so that people did not dare to attack at all.

——As netizens said, today, the Internet has already penetrated deeply into the world in which human beings live, and link is closely connected with the whole society, and cannot be separated from it anymore.

The communication between the human world and the demon world was already inevitable the moment this game was released.

But what is subtle is that the intriguing attitudes of the monsters in the demon world, as well as the positions of the main leaders and forces of various countries, the reactions are really extraordinary.

It's almost as if everyone is on Link's side, and it's not clear whether they have united tacitly and reached a common consciousness.

This feeling is simply too terrible.

It was as if some high-ranking players who discovered the truth unknowingly found themselves the only one who was excluded and abandoned, isolated and helpless, and did not know who to confide in or ask for help.

After thinking about it, I still dare not say anything in the end, so I can only endure it.

And taking advantage of the opportunity when those in the know wait and see cautiously, the game party took the opportunity to win over the uninformed, allowing the public to understand the real situation of the world without any barriers, allowing them to voluntarily accept monsters without any psychological defenses. And take the initiative to contact and understand the creatures and history of other worlds, and continue to help——

No matter how the players play the game, as long as they build, take risks, and receive tasks, these behaviors are indirectly helping the monsters in the demon world and communicating with them friendly.

The entry point is too tricky, making it impossible to go against the game makers.

If this continues, it will not take long for the public to fully accept the background of the game and the settings of the "NPCs" in the game, and even become friends with them in the game who "go through life and death" and "know the roots and know the bottom line".At that time, if Link launches some other activities in the opposite direction, "NPC enters the human world to play", let the monsters wear toy bodies to communicate with humans in the human world...

Creatures in the two worlds gradually understand each other's details, constantly weaken the fear of the unknown, and treat each other as companions with "different physical appearances".

That conflict must be able to be reduced to a minimum.

People who thought about this were immediately shocked by their own guesses and the official purpose of link, and were speechless for a long time.

So it turns out that the truth behind the truth is this!

Indeed, as long as they are a little friendly and rational, they would not expect an aggressive war with a race whose intelligence and combat power are almost equal to their own.

Not to mention that people who have become friends with monsters without knowing the truth are even less likely to simply have the idea of ​​killing each other and occupying the other's home.

After all, those monsters are too friendly towards humans...

Friendliness beyond belief.

Biologists have found new research ideas here; medical scientists have discovered many herbs and minerals that are said to have excellent medical effects; sociologists have found a social structure that is completely different from that of humans; businessmen have discovered new business opportunities here ;The adventurers saw a brand new world...

Even without the use of violent means of aggression, human beings can still get what they want in a friendly and harmonious way.

They completed the tasks issued by the monsters and obtained the money provided by the monsters, and the money allowed them to hire monsters to replace their bodies, which were inconvenient and not capable of fighting, to carry out various constructions and researches in the monster world...

Come and go, unknowingly, two completely different species have reached a cooperative relationship.

As a result, the demon world has made great progress with the help of human beings.

Maybe people of their generation are still a little unsuited to dealing with monsters, but what will happen when a new generation of humans is born ten or twenty years later?

No one is born knowing the difference and discrimination, and no one feels fear of the existence that has already integrated into this society.As long as this initial step is taken smoothly, future human beings will naturally be able to accept the existence of monsters calmly, and accept this group of people whose body structure is different from human beings just like accepting foreigners with different skin colors.

The times are advancing, and sooner or later, human society will live in harmony with monsters.

The more you think about it, the more you admire the foresight of the game official, those who are one of the best among human beings.

Perhaps it would be a perfect choice to recognize the official purpose of the game and cooperate in silence.

They have witnessed the dawn of a new era.
