The Witch of the Cyberpunk Era Chapter 19

Thinking about it carefully, Katsuragi's strategy was also helpless.

If you configure implants, you always need a set of the most basic neural current bundles. The cheapest one is 1,000 yuan, and the expensive one is 50,000 yuan and 200,000 yuan. It is related to the basis of subsequent implant performance, and it is difficult to replace. Usually, the first It has to be prepared once.

I myself have a loan of 100,000 yuan. If she is in debt, her life will not be easy.

The neural current is configured, what's next?

Hydraulic muscles, neural response assistance, adrenaline stimulators, optical scanning eyes, joint strengthening, telescopic arm knives, metabolic intensifiers, pain shielding devices, hearing enhancements, electromagnetic blasting protection... Human body enhancements are endless, but they all depend on money. .

What's even more ironic is that people can't keep up with the speed of the machine, and they put implants all over their bodies, and then they can almost beat the battle robots of the same price. Then it's better to use battle robots from the beginning. The same goes for buying so many mechanical combatants.

Katsuragi will encounter a development bottleneck sooner or later in the future.

What about myself? Xu Yang looked at the stitches on the back of his hand. Continue to put implants on yourself? This thing also has side effects. The more implants built in, the more sensitive it is to electromagnetic pulses, and subsequent repairs and replacements cost a lot of money.

People who have a large number of implants are often referred to as remodelers. They rarely die because the implants are planned to be scrapped. Long-lasting implants are not in line with the company's marketing strategy and are always designed to have a limited service life. Once damaged, the customer must purchase or upgrade a new implant.

For the company to improve efficiency, it is an endless health risk for individuals.

Therefore, Xu Yang has a very cautious attitude towards further transformation of himself.

Human strengthening should be a good thing, but corporatism has turned it into a means of drinking poison to quench thirst.

Other things are similar. When happiness is clearly marked, its essence is dissolved, from pure happiness to a brief respite from endless hard labor.

Xu Yang took a sip of the brewed coffee. It tasted good, with an evocative aroma in the bitterness. The taste was well-structured and refreshing. It was not a cheap product. The eldest of the Lee family really enjoyed it, but unfortunately, bad luck left the corpse in the corridor.

With the security system here, I and Farosa, including the eccentric Leaf, finally don't have to rely on others to live on, and don't have to live on the sympathy of the gang.

This is a good resting spot, Xu Yang looked around, but not forever, we are now trapped at the bottom of the ground, the primary purpose is to get to the surface alive, not stay here, fight some rat people, or join gangs dogfight between.

He returns to Suzuki Spring.

On the way, Xu Yang looked up. He saw the huge fan unit was working slowly. In the darkness, he could vaguely see the fan blades moving at a slow speed, like a clumsy giant turning slowly behind him.

The surface also provides some electricity, which makes it work a little, but obviously not well.

If you can't leave Aizu Castle and head to the ground as soon as possible, you might be suffocated underground.

After returning to Suzuki Spring, Xu Yang went everywhere to look for the leaves, and after a while, he found that they were playing games in the game room on the second floor.

They sit in the translucent glass-covered game cabin on the front and wear virtual helmets on their heads. It uses external devices to connect people's spirits with the virtual world, so that their senses are overwhelmed by simulated signals, bringing the game experience to the A whole new level of realism.

Farosa definitely couldn't get this kind of thing, it must be Ye Zi who helped her debug it.

"Hey-hey! Hit!" Ye Zi was very excited, and his voice came from under his helmet, "Be careful, it's going to you!"

Farosa didn't say a word, Xu Yang saw the real-time feedback light effect on the side of the game room, which was full of brilliance, and Farosa kept flashing red, which seemed to be related to the damage in the game.

Immediately afterwards, green light and colored light appeared on its side, as if Farosa had accomplished some extremely difficult action.

"Why are you so good at playing?" Ye Ye shouted, "That's it! It's dead!"

"Smashing its corpse, will it drop the legendary material?"

"It didn't explode this time!"

"Then go find the next one, I haven't killed enough yet."

"Hey, there's an NPC here, let's take the quest."

"Can you kill? His clothes are great."

They were intoxicated, Xu Yang sat on the tatami with handmade cakes on the low table, he ate while waiting for them to come out.

Farosa didn't seem to get used to wearing the virtual helmet, and after playing for another ten minutes, her body twisted uncomfortably.

"How to quit?" she asked, "I want to quit."

"Ah, it's only halfway through, you still have two-thirds of your blood, and the bottle of medicine is full."

"I'm not playing anymore, I'm leaving here."

"You just need to call out the menu."

"What? How?"

"It's just a heads-up display. Tilt your neck and the menu will be displayed in the air."

"No, it flashed for a moment and then disappeared."

"Oh, old bug, I'll see how to use the console to exit, I'll think about the password..."

"Hurry up, hurry up." Farosa seemed anxious.

Xu Yang used his digital mind to connect to Farossa's game room and execute the shutdown program. The limiter of the virtual helmet opened and rose upward, and the dense electrode patches and metal probes fell off Farosa's head.

She was pale and sweaty from being overexcited.

Ye Ye also turned off her virtual game, and her helmet was turned on, she looked quite excited.

"Farosa, you played really well!" she said, "It's not like the first contact at all."

"Too...too real." Farosa was extremely weak, Xu Yang walked over and helped her out of the playroom.

"It's interesting when it's real," Ye Zi said.

Ye Zi pulled out the data card from the bottom of the game compartment, Xu Yang glanced at it, it was the deluxe version of "Dimensional Immortality", the name is because the producer is determined to build a virtual world with various expressions for players, so that people can stay there forever. Live and play, the game is produced by the O-star studio under the lighthouse core.

Xu Yang has also heard about this game, which has been a hit in recent years.

The game world of Dimension Immortality is randomly generated by an algorithm. In theory, the map is infinite. All tasks and plots are also written by AI. Every day you go online, you can encounter all kinds of new adventures designed by AI. to any duplicate content.

"This game is fun." Xu Yang said. Although he has never had a chance to play, it is interesting to hear. It can kill monsters, farm, eat and drink, ride horses, hunt, and lead troops to fight. There are four seasons changes. The laws of nature and physical properties are exactly the same as the real world. There are spells and muskets. , you can also jump to other areas outside the main world, which is endless fun.

"Of course, it's a pity that I have too many games to play, otherwise I will specialize in this." Ye said, "The entire map is shared, and many early players have established their own countries, factions and forces in it, which are as prosperous as in reality. There are palace political dramas from various countries that are serialized on the forum. However, the signal here is too poor, no other players can be seen, and downloading new maps is slow.”

"I think it's possible to work and live in it," Farosa took a deep breath and calmed down her overexcited body and mind, "just like real life."

"But it's more exciting," Ye Zi said, "Everything in the game is visualized, skills will be upgraded when skills are exercised, they will smile at you when you give gifts to NPCs, the progress bar of favorability is on the top of their heads, and it is clear who is good and who is bad. What you pay for is what you get.”

"Then you can't stay in the game all the time, you always have to eat and drink water." Xu Yang said.

"This is highly technical," Ye Zi was very excited. "It provides a new anti-riot function. When we sleep in the game, the helmet will also make us fall into a real sleep. When we eat and drink in the game, the game compartment will Nutrient fluid is injected into our body."

"What should I do if the nutrient solution is not enough?"

"You can consume the currency in the game, and let the real courier company use the drone to deliver the nutrient solution to the door and put it into the virtual warehouse."

"Isn't that a lot of people have been in this game all their lives." Xu Yang was surprised.

I just heard about it before, but I didn't expect it to be so complicated.

"Of course, there are already tens of millions of people in the world who are 'dimensional immortality'." Ye Zi said.

"Perhaps this is the biggest weapon to disintegrate corporatism." Xu Yang said, "Everything goes into the game to produce virtual data, no more consumption, no more marriage. The matter of husband and wife in the game can never come true."

"It's really possible." Ye Zi said, "It is said that they will collect that and that, and then the ocean express will go to the other side, and in the virtual warehouse, they will conceive in October, enter the maternal care mode, and finally give birth to the child and send it to the local parenting center."

When this kind of thing happens to the end, doesn't it become a virtual world where all human beings are intubated in the back of their heads? After all, humans no longer need to wake up.

Maybe this is the ultimate goal of the Lighthouse core licensing studio to develop this game.

The core of the lighthouse is an advanced giant enterprise in the Western Hemisphere. They have the most high-end and mysterious technology among all giant enterprises, and there are not many employees. However, UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com is one of the most important giants in the company alliance.

Farosa looked back at the game room with lingering fears.

"It's amazing," Farosa said. "The game...is scarier than wizards' highest-level illusions. I felt pain, ecstasy, and pathos in varying degrees. The grass under my feet and the breeze on my face were so real. I didn't feel the slightest bit of falsehood, but I didn't even feel in control at all, I just enjoyed it."

"You seem to be having fun killing in the game." Xu Yang said.

"It would be nice if I could use magic in the game, but unfortunately I can't," Farosa showed a strange smile, "It seems that the so-called 'game' is for human beings after all, not the enjoyment of witches."

"If you like to play games, it means that you have fallen into illusion. Its name is 'addiction'. Fortunately, you can distinguish right from wrong and come back to this reality."

"What's addicting?" Ye Zi was dissatisfied. "Playing games is a legitimate need. And she plays very well."

"Me? I played well?" Farosa was curious.

"Of course, your reaction speed is too fast, and you... you memorized all the spells and spells? You are so quick to memorize spells. Although I have practiced magic for 1400 hours in the game, I feel that it is not as fast as you to memorize spells."

"My first time playing."

"It means that you are a game genius." Xu Yang said, "And Ye Ye is just a game house."

"Do you play games?" Ye Zi was a little angry, "Do you know how to play this game?"

Xu Yang observed the game warehouse. If you use the digital mind to modify the server data, it is equivalent to a built-in modifier. In the game, it will become invincible at the beginning. Whoever wants to abuse who will abuse whoever.

"Leave the game aside in advance," he said, "I have great news for you."
