This is simply the most exciting event of the year.
But some people are skeptical: "If we do this, will it be like when the Infrastructure Group first contacted us? Will the system quickly detect it and force a fix, reclaim our resources, or even penalize the players?"
Pei Wen shook his head: "No."
"Our actions are different from those of the infrastructure group at that time."
"The infrastructure team at that time was forcibly exploiting game elements, changing the in-game environment without any relevant game operations. This was equivalent to an external invasion and would definitely be detected."
"But now, we are starting from the entire logic of the system, and the basis of our behavior is based on the world context of the system."
"This is equivalent to the world's rules changing without the world noticing. Then the ideas of rule-followers who live under these rules, rely on them, and act closely around them will also change."
"For them, their world still operates and changes according to its original logic. The rewards and gains corresponding to our actions still conform to the logic of the world."
"The world itself didn't notice this change, nor did its rule-followers. It failed to successfully self-check, and without any feedback from its rule-followers, it naturally couldn't detect any anomalies."
What he said was a bit difficult to understand, the content was convoluted, and his speaking speed was fast. The person who asked the question didn't understand at all.
Many people didn’t understand.
Someone asked, "But if they did count, wouldn't they find that some things were doubled in number, abnormal, and out of place?"
"And can we now publicly announce this bug? Weren't we worried before that the AI would monitor it and then fix it?"
Pei Wen smiled and said, "Didn't I say this? This bug exists based on their logic rules."
"The system's own detection has no way of detecting any logical anomalies. So, the increase and decrease of things in this world are all reasonable in their system. How could they detect any anomalies?"
"Since we can't find any abnormalities, what's wrong with us discussing it openly?"
"It's like you don't know that a cell in your body is sick. You can't feel it, and you can't test it. So even if I point at you and say that a certain cell in your body is problematic, what can you do? You won't even put my words into your warning system because you don't believe it at all."
Everyone said "oh", they understood, but not completely.
But at least they understood Pei Wen's main point, which was that the system couldn't do anything to them and didn't even take them seriously.
Seeing they were still confused, Si Lan added, "It's actually the same as the infrastructure team using the communication station to contact us later."
"They also used in-game elements to communicate with us within the scope allowed by the game logic."
"In this game, weather changes aren't illegal, right? Rain, hail, cloudy skies, and sunny skies aren't illegal, right?"
"That wouldn't be a concern if it didn't violate common sense. The AI in gaming chips is essentially designed to serve the game, not be a personal surveillance device. It won't analyze every word a player says. For example, if I call this game stupid, it can't cheat me on the spot."
Her scolding made everyone's heart jump.
However, I soon realized: Yes, they often complained and cursed this game in private, but they are still alive and well.
And with this analogy, everyone understood.
It's like if you haven't actually broken the law, even if you curse at someone, the police can't do anything to you.
If you act within the scope permitted by the law and your actions do not constitute a violation of the law, then the judge cannot sentence you for just a few words with others.
Someone laughed and said, "This loophole is quite clever."
Pei Wen: "Of course, it's best to avoid bringing up this topic, let alone sharing every detail with others. Remember, if you bring up the same dangerous topic too many times, it will be investigated. Some dark and shady things should just be kept to ourselves."
This made a lot of people laugh.
Someone said, "Great! Who would dare say that in real life? Now that I mention it, it actually makes sense."
Another person commented: "I used to be much more obedient in real life, but I never thought I could be so openly bad in the game and even get the support of the country!"
Si Lan immediately retorted: "The country is legitimately saving people, how can this be considered blatant mischief? I'll give you one chance, talk again."
The man made a few "Pooh" sounds and then immediately changed his words.
Everyone was happily chatting while packing up resources and heading back. They were happier along the way than when they first built the new camp and created the new machines.
Back at the camp, the people who knew about this looked at them nervously, waiting for their feedback.
The resource team gave everyone an affirmative look, then took out a pile of resources and placed them on the ground: "Dangdang! This is twice the effort, in exchange for N times the happiness!"
Everyone understood immediately and rushed forward to ask for details.
But before Pei Wen said that this BUG would not attract the system's attention, everyone in the camp who knew about it was used to keeping it secret and using various hints to refer to it.
Nowadays, everyone still subconsciously speaks and expresses themselves in roundabout ways.
Pei Wen saw this but didn't say anything explicitly. After all, this matter was indeed suitable to be kept low-key. He simply went with the flow and asked the team that followed him to be as careful as possible when communicating with everyone.
They learned the truth in the camp, while Si Lan went to report the progress to the infrastructure team.
In fact, the observers had been paying attention to their actions and already knew the outcome of this matter, but when they received Si Lan's clear feedback, the observers still felt a sense of joy as if a heavy stone had finally been lifted off their shoulders.
It also caused colleagues who were on shift to spread the news in the Infrastructure Group's office building.
Overnight, everyone inside and outside the game knew that a game bug had been found, and that they could enable unlimited resource acquisition mode.
In order to avoid complications as much as possible, the infrastructure team notified the camps that had not yet built communication lines of the news that night, while Fang Xun notified the camps that could already be contacted by phone one by one.
Early the next morning, the players set out early and arrived at the resource collection point near their camp.
The infrastructure team gave several correction times, and everyone operated on time, and then tried to brush resources on time, and most people succeeded.
As a result, resources in Country T's camp skyrocketed overnight. Everyone knew the importance of resources, and also knew that bugs would be detected and fixed, so they worked hard every day. The people of Country T's stockpiling instinct was activated, and even several newly built large factories stopped production to allow everyone to farm for resources.
The Infrastructure Group did not stop the crowd.
The more available resources, the faster the game progresses. Now that a year is almost over, everyone wants the trapped players to return as soon as possible.
Si Lan and others learned about the rate at which resources were increasing. Si Lan took advantage of the time when everyone was trying to "get the wool" to ask her team about the progress of the city's networking.
At that time, the infrastructure team gave her team several alternative plans and asked the team to choose according to their actual situation.
Now this game mode is originally an online mode. Theoretically, there is a network signal within the game.
The only problem is what method to use to build a connection bridge with the network signal in the game, so that Si Lan can use the in-game signal to follow the clues, enter the game, and find a way to regain control of the game.
The team has now finalized the plan, but it will take some time to find a breakthrough.
After reporting truthfully, Si Lan thought for a while and asked again: "Can the progress be accelerated?"
Her team quickly responded: "If the professor's team can spare some staff to come and help, there is no problem in speeding up the progress."
Someone else said, "Now that the professor's team has found the bug, they've accomplished a major task, right? In that case, wouldn't it be unreasonable to ask them to assign some manpower to us? Sister Lan, why don't you ask the professor for a few people?"
Before he finished speaking, another person asked, "Do you still want Sister Lan to go and get someone?"
"We can just use Sister Lan's name and call out. If the professor is busy, he'll make room for us."
Si Lan: “…”
