Did you fall asleep during the exam?
Xu Ruzhe was completely bewildered, his mind still stuck in the memory of being devoured by the monster and the pitch blackness before his eyes.
"Christine, let's go. The exams are over, it's time to register at the dorm. If Christine is really sleepy, I still suggest she go to the dorm to sleep~"
Ya seemed to still be the same obedient girl, completely devoid of the terrifying smile from the dream. She earnestly explained to Xu Ruzhe, "Sleeping face down on the table will affect your breathing, compress your nerves, and make you ugly—how scary!"
Xu Ruzhe nodded slowly, the familiar chatter in his ears: "If Christine really wants to take a nap on the table, she can buy a special nap pillow. It's guaranteed to be soft and help her sleep, and it won't affect blood circulation in her neck or other areas. It only costs 598 universal points! If you buy two, it only costs 1200 universal points. Isn't that cheap?"
It wasn't until Ya pulled him up and he took a couple of steps that Xu Ruzhe suddenly realized the problem he had been ignoring.
Asia is an artificial intelligence projection.
Humans are able to see the existence of smart chips because of their influence, but they cannot directly interact with artificial intelligence.
So what exactly is this "Ya" that is pulling itself along?
Upon noticing that Xu Ruzhe had stopped, "Ya," who was walking ahead, also stopped. Her tone remained relaxed and cheerful, but the words she uttered sent a chill down Xu Ruzhe's spine: "Oh dear, we've been discovered."
Her lips parted to her ears, revealing a terrifying smile reminiscent of a dream: "But it's too late to realize it now."
Before the words were finished, the empty surroundings suddenly flickered several times, as if there was a problem with the radio waves, and finally revealed the auditorium in the real world where the exam was still in progress.
The surrounding candidates were all sitting in their seats, but not everyone was focused on filling out the exam paper. Some of them had been using AI software for too long and couldn't write a single word when they picked up a pen, while others were just lying on their desks sleeping.
There is no doubt that the exams are still ongoing.
Xu Ruzhe stood in the aisle between the tables and chairs, watching the proctor walk towards him.
6. The exam duration is 150 minutes. After the signal indicating the end of the exam is given, the invigilator will collect the candidates' exam papers. Candidates should not leave their seats before the invigilator announces the end of the exam.
Xu Ruzhe was deceived by the contamination and left his seat.
It was too late to realize the truth now. Xu Ruzhe could only close his eyes in resentment and wait for the next resurrection to retake the exam.
It has to be said that this tactic is quite ingenious. First, a dream within a dream that is obviously full of eeriness is arranged. After the chosen one is frightened and wakes up for the first time, seeing a much more normal environment, he will be relatively relaxed and more likely to fall for the trap.
Because the "Ya" in the first dream was too bizarre, it really frightened Xu Ruzhe. As a result, when she was normal the second time, Xu Ruzhe subconsciously felt that her condition was normal and the reasons she gave were also normal.
Cheng Zhu had watched the entire live stream, so he naturally knew how Xu Ruzhe had handled the second exam – by sleeping.
Xu Ruzhe chose to learn from the indigenous people. After doing a few questions, he simply lay down on the table and fell asleep. He was not awakened by the proctor until he left the auditorium with everyone else and went to the dormitory to register his information.
After the announcement that candidates should take their seats, Cheng Zhu, like everyone else, shut up and began looking for his seat.
After repeatedly confirming the seat numbers around him, Chengzhu sat down in his seat and waited for the entrance exam content. Although the smart city allows residents to confirm the content directly with their eyes and also allows voice input, during one-on-one learning in the learning space, the AI teacher will still teach written characters and give children a very realistic pen-writing experience in the virtual world, to prevent students from only being able to type but not write.
After the exam papers were handed out, Cheng Zhu couldn't help but glance at the candidates around him out of the corner of his eye.
The fat guy who used to use proverbs in his speech was now sitting in a relatively forward position, scratching his head, seemingly annoyed by the content of the exam paper; apart from him, without turning around, no more than ten candidates in front of Cheng Zhu could write fluently, many of them either frowned or had already put down their pens and given up.
[Warning: Please do not look at other students.]
A notification pop-up from the Smart City suddenly appeared in front of Cheng Zhu, causing her to quickly lower her head and stare intently at her exam paper, but her mind couldn't help but process everything she had just seen.
Most of the test takers were not good at the test content.
Cheng Zhu was somewhat surprised by this information, but it also seemed reasonable. After all, Cheng Zhu had previously analyzed that there were too many things to "play" in the learning space. For children who wanted to study seriously, it was naturally a treasure trove, but for children who couldn't concentrate, it was just a legitimate excuse to play.
All learning content in the child's learning space is shielded from the outside world and parents, ostensibly to "avoid putting pressure on the child," but in reality, it interferes with parents' control over their child's learning progress.
Studying is a very tiring thing.
Without a clear goal, such as wanting to get into a certain university, wanting to become an elite in a certain field, wanting to delve into a certain theory, or even simply wanting to get into a top university, get a better degree, and find a high-paying job, it is difficult for a person to concentrate on learning for a long time.
Do you remember what the artificial intelligence assigned to Christine and the other suburban immigrants said?
"Even if you fail the exam, you can still enroll."
From the very beginning, the smart city weakened the learning motivation of the suburban immigrants. The artificial intelligence emphasized to its owner that "your foundation is far inferior to that of city dwellers" while telling the owner that "you can still get into a prestigious university even if you don't work hard".
