Chapter 599: five hundred and ninety-seven

  Chapter 599 Chapter 597 · “Welcome home.”

  【Lord God World·Residential Area】

 In the dark room, a woman with disheveled black hair caressed the gun in her hand.

 On the desktop, there was a pale illness notice, and Su Mingan's live broadcast was playing on the LCD screen in front of him.

  “—What exactly is the concept of other dimensions?”

“—Humans who hear whispers will definitely be invaded?”

The young man's clear voice echoed in the room through the screen, and countless barrages flew across the screen like crazy.

 In the all-channel chat of the Lord God World, there were countless "Taiwei" messages, and on the world forum, there were also hot posts that became extremely popular.

 …

【(Hot) On the information about ‘other dimensions’ revealed in the first player’s live broadcast—the Ninth World Dungeon City of Measurement, the Supreme Ruler Dawn System’s personal answer is as follows! 】

The Speaker of the (Hot) United Alliance stated that the ‘Tavi invasion’ of the main god’s world is pure nonsense! Please stay calm and do not listen to the temptation of public opinion. 】

  【(Hot) Discussion on the counter-routine ‘Tavi’ – Can we seduce him in the opposite direction and deceive his trust in order to check and balance the game organizer? 】

[(Hot) A player who claimed to have been invaded by another dimension said that it is useless for human beings to save themselves, so it is better to go with higher dimensions to find a spark for the survival of the race. 】

 …

 Cracking the pills in one bite, the woman drank water, her eyes filled with bloodshot eyes.

  With a sound of "Bang!", her door was suddenly opened, and the light from the living room spilled in.

“—What are you being pretentious about? I already told you that depression is not a disease, why are you still taking medicine?”

The rude questioning hit me in the head, and a tall figure of a middle-aged man blocked the door.

He was wearing a fur cloak that did not match his temperament, showing a full aura of a nouveau riche. A large gold chain hung around his neck, and on his wrist was a high-end brand-name watch that had previously sold for hundreds of thousands in Zhai Xing.

The scent of food wafted into the living room—Australian lobster, Buddha Jumping over the Wall, Blood Swallow and French Western food were placed there. These expensive meals were all mixed together at this time. They will eat whichever one is more expensive. It seems like they will be at a disadvantage if they don't eat it.

 In the living room, glittering jewelry and expensive porcelain are placed in the most conspicuous position as if to show off their wealth. Even the hanging lights on the ceiling are inlaid with gold and silver.

Yu Ruohe's father, an ordinary middle-aged man who used to hang out in the vegetable market and worry about a few cents for vegetables, gained complete wealth here.

 Like rebirth.

"I, I went to the doctor." Yu Ruohe lowered his head: "The doctor said I was sick and needed to take medicine and sleep..."

"Ruohe, tell me honestly, what's the 'tawei' that's very popular recently? Are you pretending to be this?" Lao Yu asked.

 “...Pretend?” Yu Ruohe raised his head blankly.

"A group of young people who claim to have been 'invaded by other forces' have joined forces to gain benefits and gain sympathy. They even recorded videos showing 'attack' scenes to gain popularity. You won't become such a child, will you?" Lao Yu said seriously. : "The authority has said that our place is safe and will not be invaded. Don't lie to Dad."

Yu Ruohe twitched the corner of his mouth.

 She showed a smile that could be called "miserable".

She has long known that wealthy parents like Lao Yu, who are about to be eliminated by the century, will always maintain the concepts of the last century. Such people are not uncommon. In the 21st century, there will still be people who drown baby girls and people who are superstitious. This kind of outdated thinking will not be completely eradicated for a long time.

 Lao Yu is one of them. He always wanted her to find a stable civil servant boyfriend to get married. After her ex-swat police boyfriend died, he was secretly happy, feeling that his daughter could finally find someone better to rely on.

He asked her to study accounting, saying that it would be better for a girl to be an accountant, or to learn the Chinese language and become a teacher, instead of learning such things as fighting and shooting. But if she hadn't practiced shooting and knew how to shoot, she would have died in the first world.

 …These changes, these sharp contrasts, he cannot see.

Sometimes, she even felt that there was no need for him to invade. The ideas of this group of people were naturally suitable for him.

The emergence of the world points progress bar makes people who stay in the comfort zone feel like "I am working hard, and I am contributing to the progress bar of all mankind", and they can wait for the rescue of adventure players with greater peace of mind.

  When top players like Herbert give up, they say things like, "You failed everyone."

They are not in the "spotlight", no one pays attention to them, so, in a place without light, they automatically become a part of the shadows.

 Think that the world is awake, but regard heroes as expendable and useless.

 …just like the residents of the past who followed the war at home from a distance. Once the frontline war fails, they can easily get angry at the defeated soldiers.

Looking at the live broadcast in the room, Lao Yu frowned and looked at Su Mingan on the screen.

The young man was sitting in front of the white mountain of bones, chatting with the god-like Dawn. The broken human bones were very uncomfortable to look at.

"It's him again." Lao Yu said: "But I don't hate him now. The big shots in the United Regiment said that he is a hero. But, anyway, it's time for you to forget..."

   —That, that’s not because of you!”

There was a harsh sound, and Yu Ruohe suddenly screamed.

She threw away the Remington RP9 in her hand with a "pop" and screamed like she was crazy. Her pale face turned red for a moment:

"It's not you! You forced me to hand over the serial number! You - you forced me to betray him - you used the name of authority to suppress me -!"

"If it weren't for a stable environment at home, for colleagues and leaders to think highly of you, for satisfying your vanity - for such reasons, I, would I be like this - I couldn't sleep well every night, thinking of him I feel guilty, I always feel that it’s my fault—it was me who handed over the number, and that’s why he was targeted like that in the seventh world—"

"You have said that he is a hero - why should a hero sacrifice for you and guarantee you? He endured the pain of his invasion on the front line. What about you - Dad, you said 'you don't hate him', what qualifications do you have?" hate him!"

 Lao Yu was so angry that his nose was crooked.

He knew that what Yu Ruohe said was right, and he also began to regret his original behavior of encouraging her to hand over her number - who would have thought that this person could really not fail, and even his status would become more and more stable?

He even began to think darkly, if Su Mingan failed, wouldn't it prove that his original decision was correct? If Su Mingan failed, people around him would not ridicule him for "picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon."

 Or, if the number is not handed over, Yu Ruohe might be able to form a team with him and build a relationship, just like Lin Yinmowen did before...

Knowing that this kind of thinking is selfish, he just can't control himself from thinking like this.

"You are really... you really have strong wings, and you can say anything." Lao Yu pointed at Yu Ruohe: "Okay, okay, then I won't come to ask you to eat. You can eat it or not. Anyway, the digital body You will never die from hunger! You have grown up, and your mother and I will be mad at you sooner or later."

 There was a "bang" sound, and the door closed.

Only Yu Ruohe with disheveled hair and a melancholy expression was left.

  She picked up the pistol on the ground - after the fall, it had cracks that were difficult to repair.

 At this moment - she suddenly thought, it would be great if 'Tavi' really existed.

It would be great if 'Tavi' could really help her.

She is about to collapse. Her family does not understand her, her friends are alienated, her companions have left, and the world has become increasingly confusing... She also has a mental problem and needs to take medicine, but her family still thinks it is not an illness. It is now difficult for her to even take risks. The strength she has accumulated is too difficult. If she empties it, she will have to start all over again. The world copy is getting more and more difficult, and she has almost no room to survive...

 It would be great if someone could help her.

Even if it’s just to give her some guidance, even if it’s just to make her brave and stop living in the shadows...

at this moment,

Yu Ruohe seemed to hear the soft call ringing in her ears.

  【…】

  【…】

 …

“Dawn, who would hear the whispers from Tavi?” Su Mingan said.

His use of whispers to seduce others should be bound by certain [rules] and can only affect some specific people. Otherwise, with the willpower of today's human beings, 'if you listen even a little bit, you will be invaded', then all the city-states would have fallen.

"This... I don't know how he chooses the objects to invade." Liming said: "But judging from the current data collection, most of the people who are invaded are people with unstable emotional values. This is why we implant people The reason for the Dawn Chip is that people with emotional overload are really dangerous and they can be easily hacked."

 After a slight pause, Li Ming repeated again:

“I need more data, Doctor. I would love to answer all your questions, but I don’t have enough data to come up with precise answers.”

"I understand." Su Mingan's tone became much lighter.

 He believes that the existence of the Dawn system is reasonable. Whether it is reducing human internal friction or resisting the invasion of other dimensions, Dawn has achieved the ultimate in measurement.

“Last question.” He said: “Why did you give me a red order?”

 He previously thought that Dawn was invaded by Tawei, so he issued such an order. But now it seems that Dawn is at least superficially normal.

So - who is the liar?

 It is the dawn that seems fair and kind, and delivers all the information to him. Or is this opening on his wrist always with him, saying "Dawn has been invaded, need to get the password to close it"?

"This question is also the reason why I invited you here." Dawn smiled: "But this is not a very good place to talk. Dr. Asa, shall we go up?"

  Its central control room is on the top floor, and it is just a projected phantom in this basement.

 “Okay.” Su Mingan said.

 “Kakaka—”

 The wheelchair entered autopilot mode, and Dawn took control of Xiko and steered the wheelchair out of the basement. But Xi Ke has remained quiet, facing the supreme authority of Dawn, it has no power to fight back.

 Entering the elevator, Liming took Su Mingan to the top floor of the building.

This building in Central City has obviously been abandoned for a long time, with dust everywhere, but the top floor is surprisingly clean. It is a disc-shaped area with several large rooms.

They are decorated very warmly, and even the lights are in warm colors, which is in sharp contrast to the desolation of dozens of floors below.

When the elevator opens the door, several robots standing at the door will even bow and salute, like welcome girls.

 “Welcome home, Doctor.”

 “Welcome home, Doctor.”

 They speak uniformly.

 Dawn has no physical body, but it will control these physical robots to help it clean the environment. It even has the leisure to let the robots create this welcoming effect.

Li Ming reached out to Su Mingan at the elevator entrance.

 “Welcome home.” It smiled: “Doctor.”

 …
