Chapter 664: Authority information

Early in the morning, the Lin Chi, who had not been out of the house for several days, finally breathed the long-lost fresh air.
Because he had been sleeping for too long, this time he got up at less than six o'clock. After thinking about it, he decided to go to the garden downstairs in the community. There was still a weak body in the activity.
"..."
The sun has not risen yet, but the sky has begun to brighten. The bleak cold light hangs high in the sky, reflecting the steel city that is still sleeping underneath.
Standing beside the lawn with the "not trampled" sign, Lin was a long breath and felt the cold morning breeze blowing from the back.
Originally, he couldn’t get any strength. After experiencing the
game experience
of almost death, it seemed to have played a little spirit. The scene in front of him seemed to be better than before, and it was not so decadent before.
Lin Chi smiled and turned to the aisle leading to the main entrance of the community. After passing the "midnight restaurant", he found that the restaurant's signboard had become a "midnight dessert shop."
"The guy finally knows what he should do..." he said with emotion.
It seems that the owner of this store is not reliable, and finally realized that his cooking skills are not refined, and he began to specialize in the desserts that are still good at making. The dessert made by the woman is almost impeccable except for being too sweet.
- When you venture into the virtual space, the nearby "real world" is also changing.
These days, most of the time I spent in the game, in contrast, what happened in the real world, but not much impression.
If the technology that can transfer consciousness to virtual space is really developed, will it be the first users as it was when the brain imaging technology appeared?
Thinking of this, Lin Chi’s heart was inexplicably inexplicable, and then slowly shook his head and smiled:
Still forget it...

He was about to leave the community, and when he strolled down the street, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated, prompting him to receive a subscription message.
Lin Chi took out his mobile phone and shook it. The holographic projection appeared in the air above the screen. The black text on the white background was very conspicuous:
The new expansion pack of "War of War" is online!
After reading this title, Lin Chi clicks on the projection with his left hand and pulls the page down to start reading the following:
Players:
War Heaven has launched two expansion packs, the production-ready T-800 "Terminator" and the "Ghost of the Battlefield", so that players who are unable to recruit from the game will also have the opportunity to follow.
Now, we are pleased to announce that the third expansion pack of War Heaven: "The Devil Prisoner" has been officially launched. You can buy this entourage and an epic weapon at the price of 128 yuan. !
Reading here, the holographic projection in front of Lin Chi became a long-lasting figure.
It was a woman in a black tight-fitting leather coat with a short knife in her left hand and a pistol in her right hand, her exposed arms, full of serpentine tattoos.
Her long hair is a strange dark red, with a smoky makeup on her face showing a disdainful expression, as if to say "Dare to come to the old lady to kill you."
"Is this..."
Lin Chi continued to read the following content, and immediately confirmed the guess that had just appeared in his mind:
"Devil Prisoner" is our first female expansion pack, which applies to modern, modern, near future, and some special maps. Buy now and you can add this female follower to your collection!
Due to the shortage of funds, the State Women’s Prison, like other prisons in the United States, began to sell some of the more capable prisoners to the rich who need bodyguards or killers.
These prisoners, sold by the most dangerous prisons in the world, are among the top killers. Even if you have become her master, don't think about doing anything else to her, or they may unscrupulously twist your wrist or your fragile neck.
Players who purchase the Devil's Prisoner will also receive the weapon that these dangerous female killers bring out of prison - the eviscerate knife of the female death row, an epic melee weapon. Enjoy it!
"Hah, this is not bad."
After reading the news from Pulse Entertainment, Lin Chi did not hesitate to click the purchase button to complete the payment.
Although it has not been used, but the previous two expansion packs, he also bought. After all, it is not too much to follow this kind of thing, maybe it will come in handy when.
Although he really wants to go online to play a new game of "stimulus", his game warehouse is still in a state of damage, the repairman will wait until after 8:00 am, and now can only continue to wait.
After the payment was completed, Lin Chi turned off the page and walked on the cold sidewalk. Many auto-driving vehicles on the street were coming and going, and the owner who was still snoring in the car was sent to the company or the unit.
Today, people's life rhythm is basically fast, like Lin Chi, who is a leisurely guy in addition to playing games every day, in fact, there are not many...
The buzzing sound of the electric car engine kept echoing in the ear. Lin Chi found a small stall on the street and just sat on the round plastic chair and saw a small robot with a gray shell win. The round body also has an apron that looks funny:

Hello, welcome to the fully automatic pancake shop, please choose the type you need.
The sound of the inquiry is made in the speaker of the robot.
"Add an egg, don't scallions, come to the root sausage." Lin said casually.
"Okay." The robot immediately replied: "Please wait two minutes."
Today, in 2035, the hand-made pancake fruit has already withdrawn from the historical stage. People don't like to eat those that look less hygienic. The chefs are too lazy to make their own hands, so they are replaced by robots.
Although the housekeeping robot can make all kinds of breakfast, but the busy office workers are too tired to return home, often forget to make an appointment for the next day's breakfast, so the business of this kind of shop is not bad, at least Can make money.
Lin Chi waited for a long time, the steaming pancake fruit was brought to his front. When he was about to open the meal, he suddenly sat on a chair next to him.
"Ok?"
He turned his head and immediately saw a familiar figure, and smiled: "I haven't seen you for a long time."
"Fart, I was almost drowned by you the day before."
Zhou Tianhao’s voice was full of grievances, but when he spoke to the robot, he put on a courtesy smile:
Two eggs, no parsley, thank you.

"I am sorry, I was still confused at the time, I thought I was in the virtual space." Lin Chi smiled.
Because he was almost killed by Lin Chi before, Zhou Tianhao’s attitude was much worse than before. He said with no anger:
I told you before, and I came back to ask you questions on the weekend. Now explain it, what is going on?

"Today is the weekend?" Lin Chi asked.
"Don't shift the topic." Zhou Tianhao frowned and stared at him: "It's illegal to enter the data channel. What are you going in? And... what about your 'wife'?"
"Sorry, I won't let you dig the wall." Lin Chi joked.
"Fart, you think I can't see it? That kind of housekeeping robot doesn't have any remote control function at all." Zhou Tianhao's voice sounded a bit angry: "Hurry up and explain, otherwise I will let you jail or believe it? Privately enter the data channel, you can Sentenced to imprisonment for up to three years."
"Are you threatening me?" Lin Chi squinted.
"Yes, I am threatening you." Zhou Tianhao said seriously.
"Ha... that's okay." Lin Chi took a sip of pancakes.
- He can see that although Zhou Tianhao has no mercy on his mouth, he still cares about himself:
After receiving the news from the Frankenstein that night, Zhou Tianhao ran to the place and bought a glucose injection to "live". The result was almost waking up to death, and this kind of encounter will be angry.
However, Lin Chi naturally could not tell the guy that the TDK-131 virus is still in his hands. He just asked: "Have you forgotten? You asked me to investigate the illusion."
"Are you entering this data channel because of this?" Zhou Tianhao looked up a bit strangely.
"Yeah, I invaded Pulse Entertainment's internal data system." Lin nodded.
"You did a good job... No, this is illegal, okay?" Zhou Tianhao sneaked down the voice, although his mouth was still "righteousness," but the smile on his face had already exposed him. Excited facts:
"We will say later that it is not safe." Zhou Tianhao looked back at the street behind him.
"Good." Lin Chi said to continue to solve the breakfast he just bought.
In a sense, he didn't actually lie. At that time, he did invade the secret area of ​​Pulse Entertainment, but the goal was not to investigate what "lage hallucinogens" were.
The two quickly settled the breakfast, entered the garden of the community, found a quiet corner, sat on the wooden bench near the wall and began to continue the topic:
"The big morning and a man whispering, it's so boring." Lin Chi smiled and said: "If you are a soft sister, how good."
"Less nonsense, we are talking about serious things?" Zhou Tianhao urged: "What have you found? Hurry..."
"I didn't find anything, but I was almost killed by the monsters in the game." Lin Chi continued to tell the truth: "The guy who defends there is very strong, and the firewall is hard to do..."
"You won't even rush through the firewall?" Zhou Tianhao's contempt is beyond words: "I am really sorry for the title of criminals."
"I was not a criminal." Lin Chi shook his head. "The pulse entertainment company's firewall was too fierce. I was almost killed and then passed out."
In the heart, he secretly felt that his level of lying was getting more and more high. At the same time, Lin Chi stared seriously at his old classmates. He said that "I am telling the truth", there is no extra action to cover up the guilty conscience. It looks completely flawless.
If you use a polygraph, it is still possible to find out that he is lying, but it is natural to see nothing from Zhou Tianhao's naked eye.
Unsurprisingly, Zhou Tianhao really couldn’t detect Lin Chi’s lie to himself, but he shook his head with some regret:
Your boy is too wasteful, disappointing me...

"That's really sorry." Lin Chi smiled, then thought about it for a while, and finally continued: "However, I seem to find something else."
"What is the situation?" Zhou Tianhao speaks quickly.
"You should have discovered it long ago? Some of the NPCs in that game seem to be conscious, just like someone is manipulating behind the scenes." Lin Chi's tone carries a trace of suspiciousness.
"This... is indeed." Zhou Tianhao nodded immediately: "Otherwise, you think why we always stare at Pulse Entertainment, and there are reasons for this."
In addition to the unclear corporate background, the abnormal performance of some characters in War Paradise is also the case that the Game Authority cares about.
Although it is also based on brain imaging technology, this game is not the same as the previous brain imaging game. Some of the NPCs inside are indeed like someone who is operating, and is completely different from the mentally retarded NPCs that used to be mechanically repeating a few lines in previous games.
For this problem, Zhou Tianhao, who is a member of the Authority, also personally entered the game and played a few games, trying to find some clues. Unfortunately, every time he lived without a day, he was killed by other players, and nothing was investigated.
"Come on, what did you find?" Zhou Tianhao asked anxiously.
"The BOSS in this game seems to have been implanted with a program called 'the leader module', and then controlled by the module." Here, Lin Chi paused for a moment.
"You mean, are they brainwashed?"
Zhou Tianhao first frowned and thought for a while, then finally reacted: "Which NPCs really have self-awareness?"
"There is this possibility." Lin Chi's expression is also dignified: "If it is the former NPC, it should be no need to brainwash..."
- If the NPCs that follow the programmer's instructions in the old-fashioned game can be controlled by inputting commands, there is no need to make the troublesome thing of the "header module". But since this kind of thing has appeared, the NPC in this game really has the chance of self-awareness, and it has undoubtedly increased a few points.
"I rely on." Zhou Tianhao couldn't help but scream: "If this game is a high-level AI, Pulse Entertainment can be absolutely..."
This year, only a few high-level AIs that were suspected of being self-aware were stored in state-of-the-art laboratories and were unable to interact with the outside world. Things like "War Heaven" are unique.
"I will investigate..." Zhou Tianhao said, taking out his mobile phone and quickly inputting a series of messages: "If this is true, I am afraid that I will make a big news..."
And Lin Chi gave a few words, Zhou Tianhao left the community, it should be back to the Authority.
Seeing that the other party has left, Lin Chi finally breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against the bench:
"It’s finally getting the kid away."
