Chapter 39 Performers (6) Jinjiang exclusively authorized the first release, protecting...
"The most popular new actor, the biggest surprise of the budding night——"
Li deliberately drew out the words and read the information sent to her by the performance center with a smile on her face. In front of her was a virtual screen, which was a mixture of programming language and common language that only the machine race could read. After reading this, Li rushed over and hugged Annie fiercely, lifting her up and rubbing her hard: "Annie baby!"
Annie was thinking about something else and didn't react, causing the mechanical skeleton of the robot to be lifted up suddenly, feeling like it was being lifted by a crane.
Ah... Although she looks like a beautiful sister, she is very strong.
She looked at Li with eyes full of amazement at the other's all-metal skeleton structure, but Li translated this emotion into ignorant innocence.
The adjective "so cute" popped up in the virus-infected brain, but before he could react, Li started rubbing it again. After a few rubs, Annie was suddenly taken away by a hand. Annie squeezed into his eyes, and the arm holding the whip passed through the armpit and caught the ribs of the white-haired girl, and announced unreasonably: "She should be my successor."
"Hey," Li raised her eyebrows, "Isn't saving the day enough? This is my apprentice, and I want to teach her all the skills of an acrobat. What can you give her? Those ugly and annoying little animals?"
"Ugly little animal..." Anne's teeth creaked as she spoke. She showed a cold and discriminatory smile, "Why didn't you mention this child when I asked you for a talented apprentice? You didn't even tell me that she could enter and leave the fifth warehouse freely. It's obvious that you wanted to hide her out of selfish motives!"
"Will you explain the underlying logic or not? Did the Mother Goddess use the worst static library functions when she wrote you?"
"I think you have a problem with every string. Even the binary code processor in your brain is broken!"
The argument was so intense and serious.
Can't understand.
Being hugged like this, Annie could see the production code of the animal trainer sister by turning her head. She leaned over and looked at the junction of the other person's neck and jaw for a moment, and saw a string of common language.
Name: Rescue 76
Appearance: Human female, 183cm.
Rescue 76 is the original name of "Annie", just like the official staff member who sent her the genetic evolution potion. Normal intelligent machines should have names in this format. The employee is called "Evolution 155", so the robot used by Sister Annie is the 76th robot in the rescue production sequence.
Why don’t “angels” have numbers? Is he special? The voice I heard on the screen was a male voice, so I probably identify myself as a male...
Does he also have a specific mechanical body? But if he wants to emulate the intelligent machines, he should read their database, right?
As Ani thought about it, she pried the trainer's fingers and protested quietly, "Sister, my ribs are going to break."
The two people who were arguing fiercely were stunned. Annie let go of her hand and put her on the ground. She finally found her hand like a judge and stared into her pink eyes: "What about you, what do you want to do? To be honest, you have almost learned everything she knows, and it's time for you to come to me--"
"The acrobatics part is also very important. Have you ever considered the feelings of your colleagues?" Li said in one breath, lowered her body and squeezed in front of Annie, staring at her with shining eyes, "You won't abandon me, will you? I don't have any substitutes prepared for you."
Ani was dazzled by the light in her eyes. She blinked and realized that the other person's mechanical eyes really glowed by themselves. She paused and said, "I can do anything."
"Don't say it so lightly!"
Ani was shaken by the two men at the same time, and she felt that the mucus in her brain was shaken evenly. She thought for a moment and said, "I can complete these two parts by myself."
The two looked at her face.
Beautiful little girl. Innocent, cute, and with a calm face.
It doesn't seem to lie.
And it saved the day reliably on budding night.
Annie didn't know what Li and Annie were thinking and calculating in their patrolling eyes, but she realized that the two omnics were calculating credibility in the endless silence. After two minutes, they said almost at the same time: "Okay."
"It's settled then." The trainer stood up, as if he had taken this concession as a disadvantage. "Monday, Wednesday and Friday are yours, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday are mine, and Sunday is for special training. Is that ok?"
"In short, we have to support a new superstar," Li continued her words without hesitation, "We can't give this year's carnival night to other circuses. She works so hard, so we can't let her down. Oh, right..."
She raised her hand and pulled out a virtual screen with numbers floating on it. Annie stared at it for a while and roughly recognized that it said the number of votes or something.
Li pointed to the changing numbers on the screen and translated for her: "Support ranked 37th, rising fastest, with 6,420 votes."
"Is it so real-time?" Ani glanced at her, "You can vote in your mind at any time."
"The audience only has three precious votes, and can only support three performers at most. But there are more than a hundred actors." Li stretched out her hand to pinch her face, but Annie slapped her away coldly. She took it back awkwardly, "Including both experienced performers and new actors who appeared at the budding night. You have to work hard to beat all the seniors."
Ani muttered, "It would be more practical to kill all the new actors."
She suddenly felt that it wasn't that difficult to eliminate all the hunters.
The two went back and made a special training plan for her. Before leaving, Annie gave her a new animal taming whip.
This seems to be a whip treasured by the animal trainer sister. It is fully mechanical, covered with metallic luster, and feels heavy in the hand. It has about twelve sections, and an arc of electricity bursts at the end.
Ani entered her fingerprint and tried the feel of it. It was heavy and smoother to use than a long stick. She took out her handkerchief to wipe the whip.
The door of the dormitory moved, and Liu's voice rang out: "You didn't even look up to see who it was? What if other hunters sneak in to kill you? You're such a big star."
"You can tell by the footsteps," said Ani.
Liu paused in his washing, the bathroom door was open, and clean water washed over the back of his hands. A bunch of bubbles suddenly popped up in his mind. What does it mean to be able to hear footsteps? Does she pay close attention to the difference between her own footsteps and those of others? Is this how you tricked Lin into getting your hands on him?
"Because you're limping, and you're wearing high heels." Ani continued, "Does your leg still hurt?"
“…”
The water flow inexplicably became a little stronger, covering up the sound of the sudden hit on the water outlet.
The mermaid washed her face quickly, wiping off the wet water droplets on her skin. He walked out and watched Annie wiping the long whip, as if she had never looked at him from beginning to end.
"You..." Liu called her, paused for a moment, and suddenly asked, "What's going on between you and my brother? Why are you chasing after him?"
Ani explored the functions of the metal whip and said without hesitation: "It is a gift from God to me."
The first other race to appear before her after mimicking humans.
A gift falling from the sky.
Liu walked over and sat down. The training was over. He lowered his head and took off his complicated and gorgeous stage high heels. The pair of torture instruments had rubbed the mermaid's feet, which were already not very resistant to pain, into scars. Without the help of the pink slime, Liu suspected that he would not be able to walk now.
Mermaids are a strong race who admire power very much. The inability to dance is one of their few flaws. His attitude towards Ani had changed unconsciously. He habitually relied on the strong in areas he was not good at: "What gift? Was it tied with a ribbon and packed in a box and sent to you? Now I am the one who is tied with the ribbon and in so much pain."
He grabbed Ani's hand that was wiping the whip and placed it on his leg.
His stage heels were tied with ribbons, and there were indentations from the ribbons on his calves. A while ago, Annie was very concerned about massaging the little mermaid's legs to prevent him from falling down before the performance.
But now the budding night is over and it will be some time before the next performance.
Ani glanced at him and pinched the other's tired ligaments hard with her fingers. The sudden rudeness and intense pain rushed into the body. The mermaid cried out in pain, but bit her lip in time and looked up at her. She took a breath and paused for a few seconds with sweat: "You..."
"Do you like me?" Ani interrupted him.
Liu was stunned.
"Senior brother, you rely on me too much."
She leaned in and stared into the other's icy blue eyes. These eyes were different from Lin's eyes that often dodged and suppressed expressions of pain. The senior is very good at using his suffering to act like a spoiled child, and it seems that he does the same at home. As a brave, belligerent, and competitive top student, and a spoiled and valued second son, he can naturally draw attention from his elders and praise from the outside world.
Ani's voice suddenly struck his mind. Liu was speechless. When people feel guilty, they always make themselves look busy. He looked around and poured himself a glass of water. He took a few sips and thought of a rebuttal: "...Because you always come over to help me massage. If you don't want to, just say it directly. Why do you have to..."
Does this level of rebuttal really make sense?
Liu couldn't continue speaking. It was as if what he drank was not water but magma. A fire rose up in his throat and his hands were shaking from the burns.
"Oh. I'm just used to it." Annie breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone became more relaxed. She continued to fiddle with the new weapon in her hand and didn't look at him again. Naturally, she didn't see the mermaid's pink coral ear bones and the fingers tightly grasping the glass.
Ani continued, "That's good."
"That's good, what does that mean?" he asked after a few seconds.
"I'm not interested in you."
After just a few words, Liu was suddenly choked by the cup of warm water. He took a piece of paper to cover his lips and coughed for a long time, feeling a sense of unwillingness coming from somewhere. He never thought that he would lose to Lin in any aspect. Mermaids worship strength. Whether it is youth, strength, reputation, or appearance, he has never lost to the older brother. Why is it that she keeps calling him "teacher" or "gift", but he is not interested?
He stood up suddenly.
Annie slowly shifted her gaze to look at his legs covered with purple bruises, and thought, he didn't cry out in pain this time.
Liu said to her, "Lin has a disease in his brain, that's why he associates with humans. He's a traitor!"
Ani knew the concepts of the mermaids and their reproduction rules. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Then?"
"I don't like humans." He said word by word, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in you either."
"Oh." Annie nodded, then lowered her head to do her own thing.
This feeling of punching cotton makes the flow very blocked.
He opened his mouth but didn't say a word. Then he kicked off his high heels and, because he was so angry, he hit the wound hard. The pinched bones and muscles that felt like they were pricked by needles burst into severe pain. The little mermaid fell down with a bang in front of Ani.
Annie knew that he couldn't hold on for much longer. Today's training had already reached his limit. He stood up without having his legs pinched. He really didn't want to live. She stepped on his back, pushed Liu back down after trying to get up, and said calmly, "You should lie down for a while. Your tail was all scaly when you were drying it in the shower yesterday. It looks ugly."
Ugly? Ugly...him? !
“…You’re so annoying!”
"Well, the mermaids all think I'm annoying." Ani said indifferently, "Do you all speak the same way? For example..."
"What a disgusting creature." Liu said bitterly.
Annie suddenly fell silent, staring at his back, wondering what she was thinking. In her imagination, the mermaid's back should seem thinner and her waist should be thinner. Hair... Her hair is dark blue. When she said "I like you", she suddenly started breathing quickly and fragmentedly. While being coaxed, I felt a kind of hidden sadness and kissed her lightly without any strength.
She has many samples of mermaids.
It’s just the first sample, the mermaid fantasy that ranks at the forefront is always the appearance of Lin. Ani propped up her chin and looked for a long time, then said, "What's so annoying about me?"
"What's not annoying about you? Let me get up."
"Shut up." Ani ordered him, and then her tone became angry. "You don't talk like a teacher at all, so don't talk like him. I hate you too, useless trash."
She stood up, stepped over him, left the dormitory and went to Warehouse No. 5.
From that day on, the relationship between the two became visibly colder.
Few people come to the fifth warehouse, so Annie rarely goes back to the dormitory. She goes out early and comes back late, training according to the plan made by Sister Li and Annie. She is so energetic that even the two omnics would be surprised.
She tied the mechanical whip around her waist.
Sister Li would update her ranking every day. As time went by, the "animals" in the warehouse became more and more well-behaved and obedient, and her ranking was finally fixed at 34th place.
Her ranking will continue to change until the next performance.
Annie worked so hard that the audience in the live broadcast room felt so distressed and she made many fans faint. The Zerg IP account was the most excited, accusing the hunting ground officials of abusing minors - the momentum was so huge and the atmosphere was so pressing that in the end even Angel had to type a line of small words on the screen to indicate that player Annie was already an adult.
Angel supervised the entire process, and every video was reviewed and edited by him. Although it is a live broadcast, intelligent life only needs a few tenths of a second, in that subtle short delay, to complete the review and coding and filter out invalid content.
Angel intentionally shapes Annie’s image, and when she clashes with Liu, he decisively cuts into other scenes, so only the audience who is fixed on Annie’s exclusive perspective can see that scene.
He didn't want the cold and brutal nature of this cash cow to be seen through too early. Only when her soft and cute impression was deeply rooted in people's hearts would it be wonderful and shocking when she showed the cruelty of a hunter. This is the impact caused by contrast.
Angel set up a processor to monitor Ani's live broadcast content. He continued to review the videos in the adult area, coding the entangled organs without any fluctuations, changing the corresponding video prices, and designing the lens language to be more pornographic.
Then the scene switches back to Annie.
In the early morning, Ani had not returned to the dormitory yet. She spent a lot of time hanging out with various scary monsters, controlling their actions and exploring their thoughts.
The angel looked at her for a while, thinking of the invitation to "have dinner after get off work."
He will never be able to get off work in his life
...and can't even sit at the same table with carbon-based organisms.
If you really want to strike up a conversation with an omnic, you should say "Would you be willing to let me access your star network interface?" or "Can you open the firewall..." Stop, that's enough, don't use your computing power to think about this kind of thing.
The angel controlled herself and handled the new videos and paid requests in the large-scale adult area with indifference. Suddenly, the subprocessor he was hanging on gave feedback.
Ani stood up and prepared to leave the warehouse. She turned off the lights and the moment she stepped out of the warehouse, she suddenly heard an unusual breathing - unlike the monsters inside, this breathing was delicate and weak, and very oppressive.
Annie walked out normally, closed the door quietly, made a sound of leaving, then deliberately slowed down her movements, controlled her breathing, and returned to the warehouse quietly.
The lights were turned off, and that special breathing became more and more obvious, completely different from that of the animals. Ani moved closer to the back of the pile of debris, passed through the steel shelves, and stopped at the place where the breathing was the strongest.
Someone is here.
There was a faint movement in the darkness accompanied by a groan of pain. Annie smelled a scent of blood. She retracted her tentacles and did not emit her own unique fragrance. As You Ran approached, a strand of green hair appeared on the other person's face.
Ani narrowed her eyes and suddenly stood up. Her arms quickly transformed into biological armor. She showed no disdain for the injured stranger and flashed behind the steel shelf like a bullet shot out of a gun. She clamped the man's neck with one hand and pressed down half of his body with the other hand and arm. Her knees pressed hard and fiercely against his movable leg joints.
The means of subduing him were precise and brutal, and the tremendous force prevented the opponent from even making a sound. Annie held down his limbs and felt the subtle Adam's apple throbbing under her palms. The arteries in his neck instantly stood out, with blue veins winding across a section of his slender snow-white neck.
man……? The touch is not right, why...
Her mind raced, and with only this one thought in her mind, she felt a biting wind blowing from behind. Annie dodged by leaning against the wall. Several vines hit the metal on the side of her face but failed to penetrate her back.
Annie grabbed the next blood-stained vine that was thrown over with her backhand. The Zerg's bone spurs got stuck on the vine. She raised her finger slightly, and the poisonous spider limbs pierced the flower bud.
"... um..." The person under the knees panted and trembled, struggling violently like a fish out of water, and a stream of clear juice flowed from the flower bud.
Ani loosened her grip, her not-so-obvious Adam's apple rolled rapidly, and her teeth chattered: "Don't kill me."
The next sentence is: "I can give you information. Someone wants to deal with you."
Ani paused for two seconds and said, "Didn't you also want to deal with me just now?"
"I was wrong." He apologized immediately, "I'm sorry."
Ani grabbed the vine tail that he had bumped into the metal, pinched the soft flower vine leaves and looked at them for a long time, and said, "Vine tribe? I remember now...hermaphrodite. Then what should I call you, Sister Lingxiao, or Brother?"
"..." She swallowed her saliva again, and the slight rolling touch made her feel a little itchy.
"Brother...right." The captive in the darkness chose his own name, "Don't kill me, please. I can help you hunt others."
His vine tail was covered in blood. Annie guessed that his hands were not completely clean. Perhaps this member of the Vine tribe had killed someone in a fight among hunters and escaped. He was injured, which was very dangerous as the contestants were fighting each other.
Her performance was so outstanding that some contestants gave up on getting the first place in votes and instead resorted to the old trick of killing all the hunters to complete goal one.
Ani reached out and grabbed the vines beneath him, gathering several vines together. The vines stretched and retracted helplessly, and each leaf seemed a little shy. One thin vine seemed to be frightened and just wrapped around her arm.
The tentacles hidden under Annie's skin moved, and she suddenly felt that the vine tribe could communicate with each tentacle... What a pity, they produce and sell their own products and can pollinate themselves, so it seems that there is no room for the mimic to intervene.
Annie licked her lips, and a very strange picture appeared in her mind, but her hands were not slow at all. She used spider silk to wrap the flower vines together and tied them tightly.
In the darkness, Ling Xiao took a deep breath.
“…Spider…silk?” His voice was neutral, enduring the discomfort of being tied up by vines. “I have never seen a mutation like yours. I won’t do it again. I can’t beat you.”
"But you can also sneak attack from behind, which is very scary." Ani exaggeratedly said, pinching a bud on the vine with her fingers, and said as she pinched, "Is it stained with blood because you just sucked someone's body dry? It seems that another one of my competitors has died, right, blood-sucking vine."
Ling Xiao suffers from severe night blindness and can only see through light reactions in the presence of lights and sunlight. In the pitch-black darkness, I could only feel the slight vibration when Annie spoke, and the slight pain when she suddenly pinched the flower bud.
He should stop immediately and reject her actions. But this will expose your weaknesses to the other party and make you even weaker.
Ling Xiao bit his lip and remained silent, allowing her fingertips like a poisonous spider to pierce another flower bud. The fresh plant juice flowed through the green vines. His chest heaved violently and his Adam's apple trembled again, as if he wanted to swallow this humiliating feeling into his stomach.
The flowers belong to the rattan family...
yes……
Ling Xiao closed his eyes, opened them again, and said, "Turn on the light and talk... ok?"
He couldn't see anything.
If he had known, he would not have fled in this direction. When they met backstage, he underestimated the strength of the hunters assigned to the "Crown" Circus. Although this girl was not ranked high enough, she had quick reactions and super sharp perceptions. He suspected that the real spider sense was no more than this.
At this level, is it just a variant?
