Chapter 94 Happy Amusement Park 5
Hearing "gogogo" from Luo Qing's mouth, Mo Fei actually had a conditioned panic reaction.
The last time, in Yinhuai Village, after the tour guide’s excited gogogo, the seven of them faced the “Worship Moon-Locust” ceremony, which was also the most dangerous night in the Yinhuai Village dungeon.
Zhang Wei and Plaid Shirt are both gone.
Luo Qing was also so excited at that time.
Murphy had a bad feeling. When he sent them into the carousel just now, Luo Qing didn't seem excited at all.
After the players had collected their bags, Li Gaoyuan whispered beside Mo Fei, "Brother, what about Lu Yuan's?"
When they checked in their bags, each person scanned them with their own mobile phone.
"The copy will be dealt with, maybe it has disappeared." Murphy shook his head and said.
"In a dungeon, once a player dies, whether they are human or physical, everything will be erased."
After hearing his words, the two young men's faces turned pale again. "Then, will our family outside know about this?"
"I remember the handbook saying the government would also provide a pension."
The majority of players were now following Luo Qing. Mo Fei continued to educate the two newcomers in a low voice: "Nowadays, in reality, we have nationwide Eagle Eye surveillance and big data facial recognition."
"If you were pulled into a dungeon in real life and disappeared, your family would always call the police if they couldn't contact you. Big data is so advanced these days that if someone vanished out of thin air on the street, the backend would automatically report it to the police and process the information."
"Furthermore, in a situation like Lu Yuan's, as long as someone escapes from this dungeon alive and has no ill will towards the authorities, whether they're ordinary players or those with part-time official jobs, they'll do their best to report the news."
"Once the player's death is confirmed, both the national government and your local government will have certain procedures."
Ge Huiru thought for a moment and said, "Brother, there must be players who died in the dungeon, but the outside world doesn't know about it. If the death rate in the dungeon is too high, then the player who finally got out alive might have used some tricks, or maybe let others take the blame."
"And if some of the players who entered this dungeon lived in seclusion in the village or the mountains, no one might know about their death," Li Gaoyuan added.
Murphy laughed at this. "You two really are assuming the worst. You're absolutely right. If the death rate in the dungeon is too high, and it's ultimately cleared by an unofficial partner, this kind of situation is bound to happen."
"But the vast majority of people in this world are social animals. Humans live in groups. Even if a player lives in seclusion in the wild mountains as you say, they still have to buy food and other daily necessities, right? If he has a fixed ordering channel and time, whether it's the supermarket in the town down the mountain, the village store, or an online store, someone will call the police."
"Now that everyone's data is connected to the network, every time you buy something, you'll receive a text message and notification about your account. Big data makes it much easier to screen players. Because of the different dungeon cooldown periods, players' return to real life times vary. But if you don't use your account for a long time, for anti-fraud security, some accounts will be banned from non-face-to-face transactions and placed in a temporary freeze. If no one comes to unfreeze it, someone will investigate."
"The level of control the authorities have over players is much higher than you might imagine. Every community has dedicated networkers to handle player incidents. Also, you should be aware of the humanitarian severance pay."
Li Gaoyuan and Ge Huiru nodded. "It's actually a severance pay package given to employed individuals who are selected as players after verification. However, it's usually called funeral expenses online."
"Players need to verify their identities. How do they do that? Of course, they have to use the official system to verify their identities. All players who have received compensation from the company are recorded." Murphy said.
"As for people your age, high school and college students usually transfer directly to related universities and receive scholarships to support your living expenses."
Ge Huiru and Li Gaoyuan exchanged a glance. Before today, they were ordinary people, their understanding of "gamers" very limited. The thrilling lives of "gamers" seemed distant to ordinary people. Furthermore, due to the government's heavy investment, they sometimes complained online, saying things like, "Gamers will eventually die, the government has invested so much money." If "gamers" maliciously harmed ordinary people, the online outrage would intensify. The government invested so much money, treated gamers so well, and then they harmed ordinary people, blaming everyone with one accusation.
Of course, for most people, taxes have to be paid, and it is worthwhile to invest in the "players" who are only a small number of people in the country.
Because, these are my compatriots. It's not you or me who's chosen today, but sooner or later, someone close to me will be chosen. Looking at these unfamiliar names is unfamiliar, but if this person's code name is changed to my third uncle's sister-in-law's uncle, then they're also familiar people in life, fellow villagers. Who wouldn't help?
"Brother, are you an official player?" Both of them looked at Murphy with some admiration.
Murphy told them so much and even used props to save their lives. The most likely person was his official player.
Murphy was stunned. "I'm not."
He never was, and due to his own special reasons, he was not even included in the official database.
"Wow!"
Murphy thought the two teenagers would be disappointed, but unexpectedly, their eyes seemed to brighten even more as they looked at him.
"Then brother, you must be that divine knight that's been circulating on the Internet."
"If you do good deeds in the dungeon without leaving your name and without being known by the authorities, you will be the hero of the dungeon." Li Gaoyuan said confidently.
"That's right, that's right. When the work is done, I will leave, hiding my achievements and fame." Ge Huiru also nodded.
Murphy laughed helplessly, "What do you kids usually watch on the Internet?"
As for the knight player, he had never seen such a statement in the forum.
As Murphy chatted with them along the way, the three of them felt much more relaxed. The bungee jumping area was a bit far from the carousel, but the players looked a little confused along the way.
"Speaking of which, logically speaking, a bungee jumping machine should be outdoors and easily visible from a high place, right? We can all see the Ferris wheel, but why can't we see a bungee jumping machine?"
"Yeah, the pirate ship building over there is pretty obvious."
The players in front were whispering. After a while, Luo Qing led them through the pirate ship area, and the eleven players finally saw the true face of the "bungee jumping machine".
It's not the kind of bungee jumping machine that goes straight up and down.
The name of this bungee jumping amusement project is [Out of Control Falling], and it is a skinny pencil building.
This building is not very tall. Its top is like a sharpened pencil head, triangular in shape, and not very high either. At least, it is shorter than the bungee jumping machines in amusement parks that players have seen in reality.
As Luo Qing led the players in, the building became clearer and clearer to them, and Luo Qing's introduction was heard in their ears.
"See? This is the most popular jumping attraction in Happy Amusement Park. It's an uncontrolled fall. Because the lights are on at night, there are a lot of people there. However, the visibility is not very good at night, so it's best to play this attraction during the day."
"The entire tower is 70 meters high, and visitors participating in this project will fall from 70 meters high and experience a unique feeling of weightlessness."
Luo Qing's tone was ups and downs, and her tone was exaggerated, but the players were silent.
"Everyone has to take the elevator up this time, but you put your bags down first. I'll take you up the elevator. You really can't bring anything on the bungee jumping machine. You can put your cell phone in my bag." Luo Qing said.
This time, the people who were storing their bags were much more agile and they did not forget to comfort each other while storing their bags.
"It's just jumping from a building. It's not that bad. Bungee jumping is the same. I've done bungee jumping of several hundred meters." Huo Min said.
"I've skydived before, even though I was led by an instructor, but I feel like I should be able to endure it," Wu You also said.
After hearing what the two said, the other players became even more uneasy. No matter whether it was bungee jumping or skydiving, none of them had ever tried such high-risk sports.
Now it's time to prepare to jump off the building!
After they deposited their bags and came out, they saw Luo Qing looking up at something, and the players followed her gaze.
In an instant, I saw a black dot above my head falling at an extremely fast speed.
A tourist jumped down!
Most players have excellent eyesight and they clearly see that the tourist who jumped down went straight up and down!
To be more precise, he came down standing.
The tourist had a support similar to a bicycle seat under his buttocks, and there were only simple triangular safety belts on his chest and back connecting to the suspected seat under his buttocks.
"Wow." Luo Qing shielded the sun with one hand.
"Good posture!" She gave the tourist a thumbs up from a distance.
The aerialist gave Luo Qing a thumbs up, then stood straight up and was pulled up little by little while hanging like this.
Looking at the indigenous tourists jumping straight up and down, they even wanted to give Luo Qing a thumbs up.
But for the players, how difficult will this project be? Moreover, there are still rules that have not been seen.
The players watched this absurd scene in silence and understood.
The core of this project is - first jump off the building, then hang yourself, you will die sooner or later!
