Xu Piao died and was reborn, transmigrating in a blink of an eye into an interstellar online game sweet romance novel, becoming a cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name.
Fakanda quickly calmed down, called the artificial intelligence over, and carefully investigated the game and the information of the game producer.
The more he investigated, the more frightened Fakanda became.
If this game called "Shan Hai Lu" is currently still focusing on the progress of civilization, triggering people's thinking about lost civilization, and only revealing a little bit of ideas about freedom in hidden places, then the other game called "Taohuayuan" is even more powerful. It directly attempts to change people's cognition from the root.
When Fakanda was researching information on the Star Network, he had already seen that many people had abandoned the overly long name of the white-haired spiral-horned beast and instead called it the simpler and more vivid "sheep". The same was true for many other animals and plants.
There is also history. These are not the only games that compile history. However, people can tell at a glance that the history compiled by other games is empty and made up. However, the history created by this producer named ch seems to have really existed.
These situations, which could be big or small, seemed to Fakanda to be filled with an ominous atmosphere and impending storms.
Should this situation be reported? Besides him, has anyone else in the alliance's leadership discovered this?
"01, check the true identity of this producer ch."
[The address of this alliance citizen has the highest level of encryption. Supervisor, should we use our authority to forcibly crack it, or query the Game Production Association's records to obtain the information?]
"Let's check with the Game Production Association first. If it's still unclear, just use the authority directly." Fakanda said, thinking secretly in his heart.
There is even the highest level of encryption. What is the identity of this person?
Someone related to Xu Changping and Li Leran? Their son who ran away?
At this time, Fakanda didn't even think about the fact that when those two men were executed, their daughter, who had no memory at all, was also under their control.
Until 01 took longer than normal to decipher the information.
[This alliance citizen comes from a third-magnitude star and is...]
Fakanda was completely stunned, and quickly asked 01 Intelligence to retrieve the information detected by the optical computer bound to Xu Changping and Li Leran's daughter. However, 01 Intelligence told him that there had been no new information fed back from the other side for more than a year, only information from more than a year ago.
The information didn't look unusual, most of it was about income and debt repayment.
At this point, even an idiot would know that something must have gone wrong. Fakanda could no longer sit still and paced back and forth in the control room, feeling uneasy. After a while, he asked 01 Intelligent Li Sheng about the situation, but the reply he got was no different from usual.
After going around like this for several times, Fakanda finally made a decision. He took all the information he had collected to find the senior management of the alliance, that is, the highest-ranking person in charge he could contact now. When Fakanda went there, another person was reporting something to that senior official. When Fakanda walked in, he seemed to hear the other person reporting that the demand for nutrients had dropped slightly recently.
Although such a small decrease in the population of hundreds of billions or trillions of people may not seem very obvious, it does make people wonder where this part of the decreased demand has gone?
"I understand your response." The senior official said to the person who reported the nutrient, then looked at Fakanda, "Fakanda, what can I do for you?"
"It's like this..." Fakanda glanced at the person in charge of the nutrients and hinted that he wanted him to leave first, saying that he needed to talk alone. When he and the senior official were alone, he slowly told them about the games. "But sir, do you remember that Xu Changping and Li Leran have a daughter here with us?"
The high-ranking official, who was originally calm and indifferent, moved his eyes slightly when Fakanda said these two names, and in an instant, a ferocious look like a beast appeared in his eyes.
Fakanda wasn't surprised by the other party's behavior; they had always been wary of those two people. After Fakanda had said everything he needed to say, the senior official said, "I understand. You can go back and continue observing."
After Fakanda left, the senior official checked the information he had submitted. After a while, the senior official sent a message to the senior officials at the same level and above, "But... yes, there is a meeting here that needs to be held."
Unbeknownst to anyone, a meeting of the alliance's top brass was underway.
…
And what about Xu Piao?
While she was running several games steadily, she still had not given up her previous idea of opening an "Internet cafe" on the third-class star.
Because of this, she bought several holographic game cabins on the Star Network. In order to avoid transporting too many things and attracting other people's attention before they were successfully opened, she still used the small wormhole receiver that she had asked Li Sheng to help smuggle in before. In addition, she also bought a lot of small single-line robots with little intelligence and implanted programs into 079 to control them, preparing to use them to watch over her "Internet cafe" when the time comes.
You can also let Ajin take a look at the place.
Xu Piao, who was very proactive, even secured a venue. When he was preparing to choose a time to install it, some unexpected changes occurred on Star Network.
Her game, to be exact.
She was just browsing the videos made by various talents on Starnet and watching their fan works, when she suddenly found someone saying on her homepage that she could not log in to "Shan Hai Lu".
At first, it seemed like only a few people said this, but later more and more people said so, and those who were originally working hard in the game were also kicked out. Xu Piao thought that there was a sudden bug, or that Unicorn Company 2.0 had attacked again, but she checked several times on her side and didn't find any problems.
As a result, just after finishing "Records of Mountains and Seas", the same problem occurred in "Peach Blossom Spring". Less than an hour later, "Distance Between the Netherworld" and "Recalling Daydreams" all collapsed.
Xu Piao was now certain that the problem was not on her side, but that someone was deliberately messing with her game.
Her first reaction was to immediately disconnect the holographic game cabin from the star network and check the main bodies of these games. "Is the main body of the game in my creative mode okay?"
079 pondered for a moment and said, "Please disconnect the optical computer as well."
"The main game will be fine for now. The creative mode is stored directly in the holographic game cabin. I've encrypted it."
That means it is saved locally.
Xu Piao turned on the light brain and disconnected from the star network. Before disconnecting, he found that his message bar was full of people he knew asking what happened. As another producer of "The Distance Between the Netherworld", Lake naturally knew about it the next moment when "The Distance Between the Netherworld" could not be logged in.
In just a short period of time, the discussion forums of these games were filled with "Where's my game? ?"
[Did CH's holographic game cabin explode? ? ]
[I just saw a flash of gold, how did I get ejected?!]
However, this was just the initial sound. A few hours later, even the icons of these games disappeared from the Star Network, and these games became unavailable.
【???】
I'm so confused, can anyone tell me what happened?
[Did the Game Production Association remove the game from the shelves? ]
As soon as the speculation of the Game Production Association removing the game from the shelves began to spread, and after quite some time, CH hadn't responded to the matter, StarCraft players flocked to the Game Production Association to ask questions. Over and over again, they had only one central question: "Where's my game? Where's this huge game I'm playing?"
In fact, the Game Production Association is also confused and has mixed feelings.
Although they are responsible for regulating the game market, all games must be reported to them before they can be put on the shelves, and they also have the right to remove some illegal games, but these games of CH were not made by them.
The top executives of the Game Production Association all knew that the Alliance Center had directly banned these games without their knowledge.
"What did ch do wrong? He actually let the alliance bypass us and directly remove all the games from the shelves?" The vice president of the association looked at the players who came over to ask questions and couldn't help but be shocked.
Mei Jiangqiu, who had received the alliance's notice of dereliction of duty, frowned and said in a deep voice, "I want to know too."
Why did the top leaders of the alliance, who had always allowed and encouraged the development of the gaming industry, suddenly ban these four games?
His grandson was also asking him what was going on, probably thinking that it was their association that banned it.
While everyone outside was confused, Xu Piao on the third-class star side had already realized, "Is it the Alliance?"
079 nodded slightly.
"I haven't done anything obviously 'freedom' related lately, just some romance games and civilization progression," she muttered to herself, recalling the past. "If it were content from previous games, they would have already taken action, right?"
"Perhaps, it's because of civilization." 079 lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "You're in danger now. If they want to erase not only the game, but also the people who made it, then it's very likely..."
As he was speaking, Xu Piao heard a soft "bang" sound and a small stone hit the window glass.
Turning around, he saw Zhuang Yin standing outside the window with his arms folded across his chest, tossing a small stone up and down with one hand. "I have bad news for you."
"What?"
"A few hours ago, several spaceships on the first-class planet suddenly moved. Now it's confirmed that their route is heading to the third-class planet, and they're probably arriving soon. Also, the guards on the third-class planet just closed all normal entrances and exits, leaving only one entrance to the first-class planet." Zhuang Yin paused and suddenly smiled. "You can see, their target is someone on the third-class planet—it's definitely not me. Even when I escaped from them, I didn't encounter such a large-scale battle."
"I heard that your games were all banned?"
"You're quite well-informed." Xu Piao didn't show the panic or fear he had hoped for. Instead, he opened the door and motioned him in. "You came here just to report something, didn't you? Since the passages are blocked, that means you can't get out either?"
Zhuang Yin did not deny it. He walked in with his hands in his pockets and closed the door.
Xu Piao was thinking about how to deal with the situation, and asked 079 to help her remove the chip that stored the creation data in the holographic game cabin. In order to prevent the main world of the game from being accidentally destroyed, she backed up the creation data in several copies and stored them separately.
"The leader asked me to give this to you." Zhuang Yin stood by and watched her movements, then threw an interstellar wanderer's communicator to her.
Xu Piao took the communicator and turned on the communication. Instead of entering the virtual mode like last time, he started a direct conversation.
"I already know the situation over there." Li Sheng wasn't one to waste time, so he got straight to the point. "We're in the next galaxy right now. It'll take an hour to reach a third-magnitude star via warp. Have Ah Yin take you to Antoine. He'll try to buy time."
Xu Piao only now realized that the manager of Area D was one of theirs.
However, the alliance's orders are obviously much higher than those of an administrator. Even if the administrator of Area D is one of their people, he probably can't force open a channel in this situation, right?
"I understand." Xu Piao listened calmly to the arrangements over there, but when she heard the latter part, Li Sheng was silent for a moment and told her the route he escaped when he was trapped on the third-magnitude star. However, he also said that this route was very risky and one could die if not careful, so there was no need to consider this route unless it was absolutely necessary.
After finishing the instructions, Xu Piao put away the communicator, took a deep breath to cheer himself up, and said to Zhuang Yin, "You lead the way."
Zhuang Yin suddenly said, "I'll tell you Antoine's handover signal. You guys go over there first... I have something else to ask."
Xu Piao saw Zhuang Yin's expression and an idea struck him. "Are you going to find Ah Jin and take him with you?"
"no!"
Xu Piao blinked, did not respond, and wrote down the handover signal.
Anyway, she had no interest in knowing the complicated situations and psychological activities of the two brothers. As the elder brother, Zhuang Yin, committed a crime when he was a teenager and was about to be sentenced. He left his intellectually disabled younger brother and ran away without a carefree manner. When he ran away again many years later, out of complicated feelings, he decided to take his younger brother with him this time. It is estimated that no one except himself knows his psychological activities.
When Xu Piao and 079 left the house together, they happened to see the only unclosed passage not far away, where several spaceships were slowly landing.
"Everyone, stay where you live and don't go out! Everyone, stay where you live and don't go out!" In the urban area of District D, the guards who were usually too lazy to patrol appeared on the streets fully armed for the first time. The guards were composed of humans and robots. Xu Piao and 079 avoided these third-class guards and rushed to where Antoine, the manager of District D, was.
"Don't be afraid, I can control those robots." 079 saw that Xu Piao hadn't spoken for a long time, and thought she was worried, so he whispered to her.
"Hmm? Not really scared..." Xu Piao smiled. In this situation, she was still in the mood to make a little joke. "It's really exciting, just like watching a movie."
Only at this time did she feel that she had traveled to a high-tech interstellar society with a disordered system. The sudden escape from the planet was quite interstellar.
Just at this moment, a guard wearing full equipment and looking like a mecha passed by the empty house where Xu Piao and 079 were. The live scan suddenly detected that there was someone in the originally vacant house. The guard opened the door and saw the person inside was about to react. 079 instantly stepped forward to control the guard, paralyzed the intelligent operation part of his equipment, and then made the guard unconscious.
During the entire process, his movements were swift and without making any unnecessary sounds, making him look exactly like a combat robot.
With his cold and silent appearance, if the situation wasn't wrong, Xu Piao would have wanted to applaud him.
Xu Piao watched 079 knock the man down, then walked over to pick up the guard's dropped equipment—a projectile-type mist. After fumbling with it for a while and asking 079 about it, he found that it was quite simple to use. He casually put it on and said, "Let's go. If they notice someone has fallen behind, they might turn back."
The road ahead was much more difficult to walk on, and there were more and more guards.
However, because they deliberately passed by the place that Xu Piao planned to use as an "Internet cafe", 079 controlled the small robots that Xu Piao originally planned to use to watch the place to start working and pour into the urban area of District D.
While avoiding the guards, Xu Piao saw many third-class star residents who were ordered to stay in their residences and not allowed to go out, leaning on the windows to peek in to see what was going on.
I guess the discussion is going on in the chat channel of the third-class stars right now.
