Chapter 58 Just Partners 03
After the video of the "bare-handed" fight against aliens went viral on StarNet, the analysis post uploaded by "Spiral Structure," a well-known analyst in the community, about "the protagonist of the video may only have a B-level gene development level" went even further and became a viral sensation.
Numerous speculations about "account being hacked," "sleepwalking," or "not fully awake" quickly gathered under the post, forcing even the usually aloof analysis guru to personally step forward and refute the rumors.
[This analysis was made under completely rational and sober conditions, without any external threats.]
However……
LOL, it's completely useless.
In fact, a development level of B is certainly not low; it is already the standard for being selected for the nine major military academies.
Most ordinary people's development skills only reach level D, and reaching level C is already considered extremely excellent among the population.
In any other context, someone using the prefix "only" when referring to a B-grade video would likely be met with ridicule online. But in this video, saying "B-grade" truly means "only." Indeed, some uninformed viewers were drawn in by the combination of these two words, eager to unleash their fury, only to leave cursing after watching the video. This isn't what I expected.
As for the speculations in the post, apart from a few die-hard fans of Luo Da, most netizens' attitude is: "What the hell? Nobody believes that!!"
If a B-rank can suppress aliens with a light energy gun, then wouldn't any 90 military academy student be able to do it?
Then what's the point of having mechs? What's the point of having weapons? What's the deal with the planet that's been urgently designated as a danger zone and where warp ships are being activated to evacuate the population? And what's the deal with the constantly shifting isolation buffer zones along the border?
With the StarNet network's extensive coverage, you can find all sorts of people here.
Many people watched with a "let's see what happens" attitude, but after watching it from beginning to end, they thought... "Taiwanese ' ...
A StarNet user?
There must have been a problem somewhere!
The reason for this situation is that this expert analyst has consistently adhered to the style of "speaking with facts" and "speaking with data".
The title of this post has remained unchanged, but the content has been revised several times by the poster. It is no longer the rudimentary version it was at the beginning. Each revision is supported by newly added data, and almost every movement of the people in the video has been broken down from beginning to end.
A game-like character model was created, incorporating elements of strength, speed, and endurance. Someone even appeared in the comments section, claiming to have acquired a Gale X200 and actually simulated all of the character's movements, uploading footage of the simulation. Even the little girl the boy was carrying in the video had a similarly sized and heavy weighted bag attached to his body – a testament to the meticulous attention to detail.
Everyone?!
Before this, everyone was just watching for fun, but after this imitation video came out, all netizens were shocked – it actually worked?!
For a time, many people's confidence swelled and they developed the mentality of "I can do it too." A few people actually released another set of imitation videos that were not entirely accurate. Some people even liked to watch the fun and encouraged the original and most accurate imitator to try it out in a different kind of scene.
This trend was also unexpected by Hulu Xuan himself, and he had to highlight and bold a line at the very beginning of the post advising against imitation.
Meanwhile, a lengthy analysis video below shows that the protagonist's greatest challenge lies not in the actions themselves, but in making the most accurate predictions under life-or-death crises when facing alien species. Whether it's attacking or avoiding damage, it's always the optimal solution with the least amount of action cost.
In short, you can indeed imitate the same actions, but you don't have the same intelligence and judgment as the other person.
Helical Structure himself even sent a private message to the netizen who initially posted the imitation video, out of concern that something might go wrong.
The latter was somewhat flattered, but after reading the content, he couldn't help but laugh, "[Don't worry, Mr. Luo, I'm not stupid.]"
Anyone can walk on a steel wire placed on flat ground, but it's a completely different story if you put that wire between two tall buildings.
Zhou Xuan, or the spiral structure itself, breathed a huge sigh of relief upon seeing this reply.
He was much younger than netizens estimated, and looked like a teenager still in school. Although he felt that his posts were all based on facts, he would feel bad if someone actually got into trouble because of them.
After solving the problem, Zhou Xuan couldn't help but tap the screen a few times, playing the video that he had almost memorized again.
Grade B.
Even Zhou Xuan, who came to this conclusion, couldn't believe it.
Zhou Xuan has always advocated using data to speak for itself, but this is the first time he has doubted the data. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept adding content to the post, trying to magnify every detail and find evidence to refute it.
The repeated playback did indeed allow him to discover some different details, but they were not rebuttals to the gene hierarchy.
Zhou Xuan noticed that the other person's left arm and left leg likely had old injuries.
The left arm was more severely affected; the difference in movement was obvious after he switched the gun to his left hand. However, most people have a dominant hand on one side, and the other hand is not as dexterous. When Zhou Xuan first analyzed the situation, he also had this preconceived notion. Later, when judging the center of gravity frame by frame, he found that the other person was trying to avoid putting weight on his left leg, which added to the speculation that he was injured. With this assumption, when he watched the whole thing again, he found something was wrong. His left hand was not bad in terms of dexterity; what was lacking was the ability to withstand recoil.
But no matter how many times Zhou Xuan rewatched it, he still found it unbelievable that someone could remain so calm and rational under the pressure of an alien species. Apart from the incident with the energy gun, if that person had made just one more wrong judgment, there would have been no chance for them to have another chance. Zhou Xuan even discovered after analyzing the situation that the other party had left room for error from the very beginning, anticipating a mishap with the energy gun.
Zhou Xuan couldn't help but bite her thumbnail.
After much hesitation, he finally sent the video along with his analysis report to his brother's email address. Although he didn't trust his brother's judgment, he had to admit that his brother's knowledge was indeed more comprehensive.
I just don't know when his brother will reply.
Hopefully, his brother hasn't gone off to some remote place where he can't even connect to the StarNet to carry out a mission.
Ren Yi, who was on a fourth-magnitude star, was unaware of the troubles and disturbances of the Star Network. The reason was simple: the fourth-magnitude star lived up to its reputation as an alien planet. It was impossible to connect to the Alliance Star Network here, and the security was also poor.
Ren Yi hadn't gone far from his temporary lodgings when he heard a system notification: [Host, you are being followed.]
Ren Yi also noticed, and he gave a low "hmm," not surprised at all.
Having traveled the world so much, Ren Yi has an objective understanding of his own appearance, which is definitely above the general standard of beauty. However, being good-looking is not always a good thing, especially in chaotic places.
He pulled down the oversized hood of his coat, obscuring half his face, quickened his pace, and disappeared around the next corner.
Those following him knew something was wrong as soon as they saw Ren Yi speed up. They didn't care about being exposed anymore and quickly ran after him.
But in the blink of an eye, he was gone.
—We lost track of them.
The bald man with a tattoo on half his face couldn't help but spit angrily at the corner of the wall, but he didn't leave. Instead, he circled around, searching for any place he could hide, but in the end, he still found nothing.
He circled around several more times, this time not as cautious as before, but muttering curses under his breath.
After a long pause, as if finally confirming that the person was no longer there, he spat viciously again before opening his personal terminal, "They ran away! Bad luck... Such a rare find..."
He walked away, cursing at his accomplices.
After the sound finally disappeared, Ren Yi slipped out from between two very close buildings. This was the easiest place to hide in the area, and the bald man had checked it immediately, but at that time Ren Yi was directly above him.
Escaping was much easier than expected, but Ren Yi hadn't gone far when he heard the system notification again; he was being followed once more.
Ren Yi quickly understood the reason. This place wasn't that big, with all sorts of narrow paths leading in all directions, but there were always a few intersections that everyone had to pass through no matter where they went. As a local, the other party must be very familiar with this place. As long as he found a good spot to keep watch, he could always find him again. The other party's angry and cursing manner when he left earlier probably made Ren Yi lower his guard and think that he had really left.
These days, even being a bad guy requires a bit of intelligence.
Having realized this, the system's voice was dejected: "[I'm sorry, host.]"
In the past, it would have been able to obtain a map of the entire planet the moment it arrived, using it to navigate its host and leaving the human behind.
Now it's all gone, it has no functions at all, and has almost become a mascot for chatting with the host to relieve boredom.
In the previous world, at least it had a secondary account to help with control, but in this world, the secondary account has long been destroyed, so it's not even of that use anymore.
System qaq~
Ren Yi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Everyone who is in charge of the system has grown from a blank slate to where they are now. In the early days, the system only had the function of issuing tasks, right? Now at least we can chat.
Ren Yi comforted the system for a few moments, then reassured it, "[Things will be fine once we find the fragments.]"
He was talking to the system in his mind, but then he turned around and instead of heading towards the crowds, he chose a secluded path, as if he realized he was being followed and, in a panic, he stumbled into it.
This direction was of course chosen by Ren Yi. Rather than leaving them behind and then being caught up, he preferred to solve the problem directly.
He came to the fourth-order star with business to attend to, and he really didn't have time to deal with these people slowly.
The tattooed bald man following behind was reminded of the last time he was left behind by Ren Yi because of Ren Yi's sudden acceleration.
But after seeing Ren Yi walk in the opposite direction, he couldn't help but smile.
—This little guy knows how to run.
