Chapter 75 Ice Season 17 Mountain and River Seal
"I am not it."
Jiang Runian understood this nonsensical sentence - Cyber had already rolled out of Ye Wuxue's body.
Countless questions popped up in Jiang Runian's mind: "Do you know who 'it' is?"
Ye Wuxue shook his head, then nodded: "I can roughly guess it."
Jiang Ruonian continued to be curious: "So, you can feel its existence, right?"
"It couldn't at first. It would block my consciousness behind me. People around me said that I was sometimes like two people, and could even make two completely different decisions in one day. I gradually realized it." Ye Wuxue pulled the corner of his mouth, "Then it simply stopped blocking my consciousness. I could clearly feel that I and the other thing were logging into the account at the same time, and I could only let it control me."
...What a funny and funny operation.
This was clearly done intentionally to disgust Ye Wuxue.
"Haha, it's not surprising that it would do this to me." Ye Wuxue shrugged, "After all, I was the first one to oppose continuing the super AI project."
Jiang Ruonian: "...Are you from the First Research Institute?!"
Ye Wuxue smiled, looked her up and down, and sighed: "Yes. Ling Sanling, I hugged you when you were in the First Research Institute."
Jiang Runian: “…”
"It will come to trouble you even if it is wearing my vest. You should be its first choice host."
Jiang Runian raised his eyebrows.
Similarly, the system also said, "You are the experimental subject chosen by Cyber."
"Since it chose me, why doesn't it just possess me?"
"Is it because it doesn't want to? Do you think it hasn't tried before?" Ye Wuxue sneered and circled Jiang Runian three times to the left and three times to the right. "As expected of the most powerful test subject in the First Research Institute, it thrives in such an environment."
During the research, Cyber and Jiang Runian had several brain connections. Cyber tried to occupy Jiang Runian's brain countless times, but was always separated by the powerful mental power.
Therefore, it could only settle for the second best option and choose a host that it could better control - Ye Wuxue, who had performed well in the early stages of the apocalypse and had once opposed it, became the second choice.
Perhaps Cyber was unhappy because he failed to select the first choice, so he used the method of sharing the same number to disgust Ye Wuxue.
Ye Wuxue said with disdain: "It has done a lot of such despicable things before, such as bypassing the key and sharing the brain with the experimental subjects of other projects without authorization, causing many experimental subjects to become mentally abnormal."
——It was probably because of this that Zero Sanling temporarily lost her memory of being an experimental subject, and thought she was "Jiang Ruonian" who grew up in Qingshan Sect.
Some time ago, Ye Wuxue noticed that it logged in more frequently, until the green light appeared and it was obvious that it no longer appeared. Ye Wuxue, who finally regained his free will, had the opportunity to quickly finish what he had to do.
Jiang Ruinian was puzzled: "But why did it leave suddenly?"
"Based on my understanding of it," Ye Wuxue gritted his teeth, "it probably feels bored."
"……boring?"
"After watching a show with my identity, its identity has been exposed by you, so there is no need to continue to log in. I don't know where it is now." Ye Wuxue clenched his fists, "You probably don't know, in addition to the natural disaster, the group of guys who rely on the transformation of alien energy weapons are also its work."
For example, the Guangyao Organization.
At first, players did not realize that alien energy could also be used as a weapon.
The end of the world came suddenly, and everyone was busy exploring, avoiding natural disasters, and struggling to survive. Although there were wars for resources, they were only small-scale. The overall trend of the entire District 8 was to move towards peace and jointly resist natural disasters.
Probably because they felt that such a game was too boring, Cyber requisitioned Ye Wuxue's body and released the news of the alien energy weapon. Not only Guangyao, but also other places in District 8 also have such organizations. Cyber has placed a large number of alien monsters around these organizations so that they can obtain resources.
It can be said that these organizations were created by Cyber.
It just wants to see humans suffer.
If natural disasters are not enough, then they will kill each other.
...What a lawless Cyber.
The entire apocalypse was originally just a game of its. The murderous natural disasters were just a joke it made casually, and the lives as fragile as ants were just chess pieces it manipulated at will. It came and went as it pleased, completely unaware of what was cruel and what was insane.
This is the super AI that humans have spent a lot of effort to create.
"I have long felt that this so-called super AI is beyond our control, but the research institute is reluctant to stop it for the sake of Cyber's computing power, and is still thinking of using it to completely liberate manpower..." Ye Wuxue sighed, "It's like reaping what you sow."
Jiang Ruonian bit his lower lip and said, "Is there nothing we can do except wait?"
Ye Wuxue looked worried and shook his head: "This is a world created by Cyber."
It is the god here.
It is the Creator here.
And humans are just its toys.
Is this game destined to be a dead end?
-
The blizzard has lasted for ten days.
At first, players could still find joy in the midst of hardship by piling up snow into fortresses and placing bets on the ground to see if the blizzard would go away the next day.
But now, such entertainment activities seem to have become a curse - the storm is getting more and more violent, and is even gradually breaking through the protective shield.
In Shuguang Town, the only river that sustains people's livelihood has frozen into ice, and the accumulated snow has submerged the waterwheels that never stop running.
In Mingzhu Town, the oasis has turned into a snowfield, with icicles hanging from the eaves. The patrol team has to knock them down with long poles every day, otherwise they will directly pierce people's bodies when they fall.
In Longcheng, every household sat around the fire, wrapped in thick blankets, counting the remaining charcoal, the white air they exhaled blurring their vision.
And in Qingshan Inn——
"Boss Jiang! Please help me, Boss Jiang!" The frail mother who had just gotten off the bus said in a trembling voice, "My daughter has a high fever and all the medicines in the game store are suddenly ineffective. Please save her!"
Jiang Runian shouted, "Second Brother!"
Feng Yuechen walked over quickly and squatted down to check the little girl's condition. The child's face was pale and her breathing was weak. She was wrapped in thick clothes, but she was still shivering from the cold.
He gently put the little girl on the bed and said soothingly, "Don't worry, your daughter will be fine."
When the customers saw the little girl's appearance, they looked at each other in bewilderment: "She just said... all the medicines in the mall are ineffective. What does that mean?"
Jiang Runian opened the game store and selected a bottle of potion for 500 coins and a plate of plain noodles for 25 coins. She had never spent a penny in the store before, and this was the first time she clicked the purchase button.
In an instant, two white lights flashed in her hands - two blank square pixel grids with [null] written on them.
Jiang Runian frowned.
Is this Cyber trying to kill us all again?
Li Fu held Jiang Ruonian's arm and whispered, "Anian, the number of guests coming from all directions has doubled in the past few days. If this continues... can we hold on?"
In addition to the bulk supply of supplies to various towns, Qingshan Inn receives more and more customers from various settlements every day.
The Qingshan Inn's protective shield was unique, and was not affected by the snowstorm, so it was still spring-like all year round. As word spread, players flocked here to take refuge.
Jiang Runian’s Shennong Heart Sutra has reached level three, but even if the crop yields doubled, he could not keep up with the increasing number of players in the entire eighth district.
Feng Yuechen was treating people suffering from hunger or cold every day, Bai Yexuan's Sky Sword was almost flying sparks in the backyard, Li Fu never stopped using the Hibiscus Communication System to communicate with various towns about their current situations, the heating stove built by Chu Yu every day could circle the eighth district, and Liu Yinshuang was also running around to settle the players.
If this continues, Qingshan Inn will sooner or later be unable to accommodate any more players.
Moreover, what if the Qingshan Inn's protective shield could no longer withstand the attack one day...
[Host, you don't have to worry about this. The power of this protective shield is linked to your mental strength.] The system's voice was also a little heavy, [The last time the green light was able to break through the protective shield, it was because you, the host, were unaware. Now you have seen through Cyber's conspiracy and can completely resist its power.]
In other words, as long as Jiang Runian is alive, he can protect everyone in Qingshan Inn. It would be great if this protective shield could protect the entire District 8...
Jiang Runian squatted beside the farmland, stroking the potato sprouts dejectedly.
【Potatoes (sprouting stage)】
Soil: 100 (nutrient-rich)
Water content: 100 (full of flavor)
Mood: 100 (extremely happy)
Distance to next stage: 1s
Remember, the first crop she planted when she entered the game was also potatoes.
At that time, it took three hours for potatoes to grow from sprouting to maturity.
Now it only takes ten seconds.
With a swish, giant potatoes bigger than a pot emerged from the ground.
[Ding! Achievement completed: Harvest 999999 crops, experience gained: 50000 points! ]
[Ding! The inn has been upgraded to level 7! ]
[Ding! Limited-time card pool open, countdown 9min59s! ]
Jiang Runian clicked on the screen and pulled it out.
A golden light exploded, and a heavy and simple white jade square seal appeared in her palm. The warm touch made her fingertips numb, and the pattern on the bottom glowed faintly under the reflection of the snow.
[Obtained item: Mountain and River Seal x1]
Description: Something more powerful than the City Lord's Order, capable of merging towns.
This is an ancient magic weapon used by the immortal world to establish the Immortal Alliance!
If we can use this to establish an organization similar to the Immortal Alliance, then the Eighth District will be saved!
Jiang Runian held the Mountain and River Seal in his hand and ran out to the backyard impatiently. When he was about to tell everyone the good news, he saw a red prompt under the Mountain and River Seal.
【Terms of Use】
Gold: 10 million
Population: 100,000
Jiang Runian: “…”
Is this condition serious? ! !
Ten million gold coins... Qingshan Inn only earned about a million after working diligently for a year. And 100,000 people is even more outrageous. Where did she find so many people?
She sighed.
It seems that this Mountain and River Seal cannot save the Eighth District.
Just then—
"Boss Jiang! Count us in as one of Shuguang Town!"
