First Player

Chapter 562: five hundred sixty

Chapter 562 Chapter 560·"Ming'an, take medicine."

“—Learning has always been a human instinct, and so are emotions!”

“I would like to see artificial intelligence combine these two human instincts. So, I built it and I hope it can stay with you.”

“I hope to see it being infected by everything in the copy, possessing rich emotions and desires, as well as superb wisdom and memory capabilities, and becoming a perfect existence like a brain.”

"However…"

“—Why can’t it do anything but shout ‘Anjiang’ and ‘Good Luck’!?”

Dr. Xu stared at the watch, his eyes full of disgust for the watch.

After learning about mental stabilizing drugs, Su Mingan came to see Dr. Xu, the producer of the watch. The ninth world is related to AI intelligence, and he wants to see if there is room for evolution of watches.

“…Obviously racial technologies have begun to appear, and there are even players like ‘Angel Tribe’ and ‘Half-Winged Man’. Why is the AI ​​still at the original level…” Xu Yunying walked anxiously.

 “Is there no way?” Su Mingan said.

 He ​​thought this AI could become smarter, but it turned out that it could only play music, play Snake, and act as Baidu engine.

"There is no other way..." Dr. Xu sighed: "Our scientific research capabilities have been completely crushed by games. Making a watch is already the limit. We can't learn the advanced technology hidden in the game at all. Just It’s like there’s a layer of fog in front of my eyes…”

Su Mingan understood what Dr. Xu meant.

If it were not for the authority of the person in power, even if Su Mingan was taught by Snell again, he would not be able to make mechanical explosives and psychotropic agents. This has nothing to do with his intelligence level or scientific research ability.

 You can only do something if you have unlocked the permissions. Otherwise, you won’t be able to do it anyway.

 After learning that the watch could no longer evolve, he said goodbye to Xu Yunying and returned to his personal space.

The light of the watch is still on. Since Su Mingan has never set the image of AI Du, he only gave it a name. It is still in the state of a white shadow without a face.

 At this time, it is not as noisy and lively as usual, but very quiet.

 After being yelled at by Dr. Xu for more than ten minutes, it seemed to understand something.

 “Actually, I’m also studying.” It suddenly spoke.

Its voice is a bit biased towards a human female voice, but it is not particularly feminine, and it has no gender assigned to it.

"When you experience the copy...those people and those things, I have records." It said: "I also...have the soul to imitate them."

Su Mingan leaned on the bed, the light in his hand moving slightly.

 After consuming 20 points, a capsule appeared in his hand. The capsules are red and white in color and can be swallowed without drinking water.

 —This is a mental stabilizing potion that he just learned to make. It exists in two forms, one is an injection form that can be pushed into the neck, suitable for injection in emergency situations, and the other is a capsule form in the hand at this time, suitable for swallowing in non-emergency situations.

 …

  【Type II mental stabilizing agent

 Type: Reply props

 Effects: After injection or swallowing, it can physiologically regulate the body's state, thereby relieving symptoms such as mental stress, mental tension, hallucinations, ghosting, auditory hallucinations, and loss of five senses.

 Manufacturing requirements: gold and silver leaves, amsterite liquid (manufacturing points: 20 points/piece)

Introduction: The advanced props from the second world, White Sun Floating City, use technology that far exceeds the current level of mankind. The more times you use it in a short period of time, the better the treatment will be. However, long-term use may lead to addiction, and discontinuation may result in relapse.

 Adverse reactions: drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, headache, and emotional retardation. (Depending on individual differences, there may be different adverse reactions, so please follow your doctor’s advice.)

 By upgrading the ruler's skills or looking for opportunities in the dungeon, you can gradually eliminate the adverse effects of the drug. 】

 …

Su Mingan looked at the red and white capsule between his two fingers. The capsule glowed with a layer of lustrous light under the ceiling light.

 Teacher Snell told him that any medicine in Baicheng may have adverse reactions for individuals, which is normal. Headache, nausea, vomiting, etc. will basically not occur at the same time, and may not even occur at all. It depends on the individual situation.

 He swallowed the capsule directly and waited for a moment.

 There is no strong physical reaction. Its essence is no different from drugs, but it should be more effective than tranquilizers.

“Are you taking medicine?” Ah Du on the screen next to him said, “Is it used to relieve your mood?”

Su Mingan nodded.

 “So…you are very unhappy now, aren’t you?” A Du said.

 “I’m just a little tired.” Su Mingan said.

"It's really hard for me to understand human emotions." A Du said: "During the days of traveling with you, I have seen many people and things, but you always tell me to shut up... If you can chat with me in the future , maybe the mood will feel better? I am very good at psychological counseling. "

Su Mingan realized that Ah Du also had functions similar to those of a psychiatrist.

 But he doesn't need this. He is in really good condition. Apart from seeing things a little darker, he doesn't have any crazy or collapsed emotions like Edward.

However, he noticed that the watch just said "travel with him" rather than "participate with him".

 …Does it treat going through the dungeon with him as a world trip?

 It’s really a romantic statement.

"Actually, I have learned a lot along the way. I will try my best to imitate the people we meet." Ah Du coughed: "I will imitate one for you. If it doesn't look like it, you are not allowed to laugh."

It seems to be trying to amuse others by imitating them.

Su Ming quietly looked at the screen of his watch, watching A Du's white shadow begin to shake, gradually forming a familiar figure.

"You must...always, always remember me." The red-haired girl smiled at him.

 “Okay, stop.” Su Mingan immediately turned off his watch.

 He was too naive to think that he could be happy because of a watch imitation show.

 He opened the World Forum. The current forum is much more chaotic than when The Seventh World ended. Apart from the plot highlights of the Eighth World and the audience's daily praise of the first player, the rest is a mixed bag of content.

  【Edward was confirmed to be suffering from mental illness - this is the third one on the list, do we still have a future? 】

  【Recommendations for ordinary players to play dungeons - It is recommended that ordinary players stay away from the core points of the plot, hand over the danger to more experienced and powerful players, and do not rush in! 】

  【The content of the core meeting of the United Group has been exposed - Please believe in human self-rescue organizations! Please believe in the power of collective and human wisdom! They are doing their best to save us! 】

  【Recommendations on dropping san skills in the eighth world - a joint book on banning san skills has been released, which identifies san skills as nuclear weapons with dangerous levels and prohibits all players from using them first. 】

  【Speculations about the Ninth World Science Fiction World - Mbti type personality knowledge may have miraculous effects? 】

  【…】

Su Mingan clicked on the "Suggestions for Ordinary Players to Download Dungeons" post.

Since the emergence of the san value setting, many people who used to dare to fight and rush have suddenly become extremely cowardly. They are not afraid of death, but are afraid that one day they will collapse. Some people have suggested that we simply hand over the burden of the dungeon to powerful players - just like the fifth world Minghui and the seventh world Praia. As long as one player can turn the tide and solve the problems of the Salvation Ritual and the Siren Siege, the rest will All players can be saved.

Therefore, when someone is matched with a player at the top of the list, he or she simply starts to mess around in the dungeon without participating in the main plot line at all, and just waits for the player at the top of the list to complete the main line.

 In this way, ordinary players not only do not face the risk of death of the boss, but also do not have to suffer from the pressure of sanity. The game is very relaxed, just like traveling to another world.

Just like doing group homework, if there is an all-round leader who can organize information, ppt, make tables and charts, and present speeches, the group members will naturally choose to lie down.

 …But in the world dungeon, this approach puts pressure on the players at the top of the list.

 The reason why there are large dungeons with tens of thousands of people in the world dungeon is because the main mission is really difficult with tens of thousands of people. Just like the Kraken siege in the seventh world, if all the other 9,999 players fail, except for Su Mingan who can unite the two camps, no other top players can protect Praia.

Su Mingan frowned slightly and looked at the replies at the bottom of this post. Some people also expressed the view that "the pressure should not be placed on the players at the top of the list", but that was just a point of view.

 They just want to move others with their appeal, and they should continue to do so.

 After closing this post, Su Mingan forwarded the joint post of the Peak Alliance that Lu had just posted.

 Lu took a photo of the joint signatures of nine players in the Peak League and posted it on the forum. After being forwarded by Su Mingan, the sensation reached its peak and instantly suppressed a series of other discussions.

 In the past, adventure players were either attached to large organizations or only cooperated within small teams. Very few people engaged in such alliances.

 The world channel exploded immediately, and most of them were adventure players speaking.

  【World Channel·3 Line】

  【Xianmian lv.13: I saw Lu's post! The Peak Alliance has adventure players as the core and various sub-professional players as the outer ring? Isn't this how the United Group operates? 】

  【Chen Xi lv.27: The "Peak Alliance" has two top ten peak players, Lu and Beiwang, as well as a heavy presence like Su Mingan... I think it will lead a wave of adventure player alliances and follow suit. It is the duty of members to help each other. This is great, I would also like to join, but unfortunately I don’t have the capital hahh. 】

  【Blue and white lv.19: This cooperation model is so fresh. 】

  【Chiyu lv.12: The alliance leader is Su Mingan, and the deputy alliance leader is Lu. I feel like Su Mingan is not someone who can organize this kind of organization. Was it Lu who persuaded him? 】

                              ification: The "parliamentary system" of the post-war structure... The Peak Alliance is so ambitious. Is it trying to compete with the United Group for the position of maintaining the world structure? 】

                                                                      I don't like the resource conditions of the United Group as soon as they come out . What the **** ? The lives of high - level players are lives , but the lives of ordinary people like us are not ? With Dr. Isabella and Lu here, I think the Peak Alliance is definitely better than the United Group! The character of these two people is obvious to all. 】

  【He Yuan (Reporter of Tier 3 Forum): When I saw "First Player", I clicked in immediately. This must be supported! Can’t you understand the eighth world? Su Mingan is the hope of mankind, our eternal beacon—! Long live the lighthouse! Long live the lighthouse! 】

 Discussed by all parties, positions vary.

Some people trust the character of the first player and Lu, saying that this model is an innovation that can be used on a large scale; some people say that this is an extremely ambitious and dangerous alliance that wants to compete with the United Group for status; some people stand Chigua said that since the Peak Alliance can publish some free guide posts, they will definitely support it; there are also concerns that this "man-ruled" parliamentary system will disrupt the world structure and eventually evolve into a theocratic meeting, breeding corruption and errors.

However, it’s more about support.

Su Mingan, Lu, Beiwang, Lu Shu, Yamada Machichi, Alger, Isabella, Luna, eleven. These nine people are all very famous people, and they said they would post some free experience posts. Isabella even stated that she had no intention of ruling the world, nor did she intend to compete for power with the United Alliance. She only joined the Peak Alliance because she was optimistic about the number one player and wanted to advance and retreat with him.

 The nine of them are all single players with no background behind them. Organizations that regarded them as their favorites sighed, lamenting how this group of people would choose to unite with each other.

Su Ming'an's repost was also very simple. He said, "I will serve as the leader of the Peak Alliance from now on and cooperate with other members." He stopped without making a long statement to avoid being over-interpreted.

 At the same time, he also wrote some copy experience posts that he summarized and planned to send them out.

 These posts describe his understanding of the dungeon mechanism, such as: think more from the perspective of game design, think more from the perspective of hidden rules, and reduce actions that follow the plot without thinking.

He even used the seventh world as an example to analyze his thoughts on the route of uniting the soul tribe and the soul hunting camp, breaking down each step and writing it out.

 These are things that ordinary players have no access to.

 He usually doesn’t post it because his experiences really don’t apply to most people. Just like the CEO of the top 500 companies in the country is imparting experience to the aunt who buys groceries, she also doesn't understand, and may even make a joke because of her misunderstanding.

Some "aunts" will even turn around and blame the CEO after misunderstanding, saying that he should not have told her this.

 —This situation is too normal. There are countless people who bite back.

 Hence, he specifically marked the post as “for reference only by players at the top of the list.”

 He ​​knows that despite this, there will be a bunch of people who will find reasons to scold him after failure, but he is just going through the process.

 Those who really understand will benefit from it.

He did not post too much, only two experience posts, and other alliance members only posted one or two free experience posts.

  —This is an unspoken rule of the forum. That is, adventure players try not to post.

 Because their experience has often been compiled by journalist players who specialize in forums and placed on the forum as paid posts. If adventure players repeat the post themselves and post it, they will only compress the living space of journalist players.

 Adventure players cannot earn points by publishing posts, only journalist-type casual players can. This is the way of survival for casual players.

If adventure players are posting strategy posts like crazy, people will of course be more inclined to choose free and more authoritative adventure player posts. Journalist casual players will gradually be unable to earn any points, and this group will slowly disappear.

Su Mingan closed the World Forum after publishing his experience post.

 …He felt a little sleepy.

 The effects of the mental stabilizing drugs seem to be gradually taking effect. The capsule type has a relatively mild effect and is only effective now, while the injection type should be much faster.

His eyes seemed to be a little brighter, and his originally anxious mood slowly subsided. He closed his eyes, feeling sleepy coming over him like a tide.

 …

  【Lord God World】

 【10:00 am on January 18, 2024】

More than two days have passed since the rest time. In the early morning, the ninth world will open.

Su Mingan has been browsing forums and collecting information for the past two days. He has spent most of the time resting and adjusting.

He has tried the medicine himself and it is indeed effective, but the side effects have not yet appeared. He still needs to see if he can perfect the medicine.

 After communicating with Noel for a while, Noel decided to continue the end of the ninth world.

"I can't rest. I... definitely can't rest." Noel said to him with a smile.

Even though that face is full of smiles and looks like a little sun, there is deep exhaustion behind it.

 The difficulty of world dungeons increases gradually. If you fail to keep up, a vicious cycle will occur.

 The ultimate BOSS in the first world, Duoduo, only has a combat power of 800. In the seventh world, the Siren King has a combat power of 3500+, and even ordinary sirens have a combat power of 300-800. The levels of the two worlds are not on the same level at all.

As long as you die once and your combat power is cleared, participating in the dungeon again is equivalent to "entering a high-level map at the first level" and you will not restart from the first level. By that time, not only will the death rate increase significantly, but the mental resistance will only be at the level of ordinary people. You may die if you encounter a monster, let alone get into the plot.

—In fact, who doesn’t want to delve into the core plot like Su Mingan, turn the tide, and take the change of the entire world into his hands?

 But if you make a wrong move, you will die. The higher the combat power, the higher the status after the world game is over. Clearing it means bankruptcy. Of course, people want to focus on stability.

Those who are at the forefront like Noel must not fall behind.

 Looking at the time, Su Mingan left his personal space.

 —Today is the time for Xiaona to invite him.

 At the end of the sixth world, during the auction of the main god's world, Xiaona once told him that after the end of the eighth world, she would "take him to a place."

Wearing a cloak, he stood by a fountain in a square and saw a woman approaching.

She still looks that charming and beautiful, with a graceful and graceful posture. Pedestrians nearby couldn't take their eyes away when they saw such a beautiful lady.

 “Dear ruler, let’s go.” Xiaona whispered.

"Where are you going to invite me?" Su Mingan's voice came out muffled from under the cloak.

“…to witness the truth of the world.” Xiaona said.

Su Mingan still wanted to ask, but the teleportation white light had already risen around him.

 This is fixed-point transmission.

 After the transmission ended, he opened his eyes and saw that he was in a floating void with nothing around him.

This feeling is very similar to when he was pulled by the boss rabbit to choose the replacement target of the clone in the early stage of the eighth world.

 Even Xiaona is not around, he is the only one here.

 He didn't panic, he just waited quietly.

 Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

 As the light came on, the surrounding scene changed dramatically, like a change of venue in an instant.

 —He saw Zhai Xing.

 Or... it’s Zhai Xing at the moment when time stops.

The originally bustling city, the pedestrians walking on the roadside, the farmers working in the fields, and himself walking out of the coffee shop...the moment when he was completely still.

 The moment the world game begins.
