"Do you still remember what that old thief Christo said before he left?"
"Let's look for the secrets of this world and the meaning of 'freedom', right? Of course we remember it. That's a rare quote in the past two years... Why did you suddenly think of this?"
"I originally thought this was just his bad taste of cheating players. These words were just a hope to see us continue to suffer in his last work, but now..."
"What, those 'things' are now real?"
"I have no idea."
Sitting in the white sky with his arms folded, Duan Qing closed his eyes and started communicating with the noisy outside world in a low voice for no reason: "But since the system has assigned the player a zero-level status,
If it is set in a just right place, it means that the identity of the player is not completely absolute. The player can 'downgrade' to become an NPC, which also means that the NPC should also have a way to 'promote'..."
"How to be promoted to a player?" The doctor's voice also became cautious and surprised: "How is it possible? Although the science and technology of the 22nd century has indeed made AI possible, the computing power of optical brains has also reached such a long-term
There has been progress, but no matter how you calculate it, it is still a calculation, and its fundamental 'quality' has not changed at all."
"Yes, this does sound a bit unbelievable." Duan Qing's head became deeper and deeper as his voice deepened: "But... what if the light brain can really 'calculate' a person?
?”
"..."
"If you want to become a 'person' that cannot be quantified, you only need to solve the unquantifiable parts of it."
Feeling the quietness gradually coming from the surroundings, Duan Qing said with a slight smile: "The ability to gamble even if the chance is slim, the ability to persevere even if the possibility is slim, even if there is no theoretical support.
The ability to believe, and the ability to fall in love with another person for no reason... These things they usually call emotional modules are actually what we call the power of 'heart'. A large amount of data may refer to
It’s impossible to truly perfectly recreate such a power, but it might be successfully simulated.”
"That is the world we are encountering now." His voice paused for a moment: "And the people who look the same as the real ones."
"Is this... is this too fake?" The voice from the outside also became hesitant: "Even if the free world really pursues reality as you said, but simulating the real personality of an entire world, even if it is
It would be impossible for another hundred optical brains to achieve it."
"Maybe, but the system, which is the master of this world, has indeed been counting the choices and wills of all NPCs." Duan Qing's voice became inaudible: "In addition, the captured spirits of those players
……like me……"
"Hello? Hello!"
As if aware of the abnormality in Duan Qing's voice, the voice echoing in the sky hurriedly called twice: "What's wrong with you? Is there anything else that feels wrong?"
"It's so noisy...I'm tired, I want to sleep..."
"You are sleeping all the time now, even if you say so... Huh?"
The gray-robed body sitting in the white login interface finally slowly fell to the ground. Along with it, there were blurry fluorescent lights surrounding Duan Qing, and the voice from the outside also came for a while.
Amid the noisy bustle and screams, he once again let out a sigh as if he had just discovered a new world: "He, he is out?"
"But his spirit has obviously not been fully recovered...wait a minute, has he finally recovered?"
"How is it possible? He just experienced a mental transfer, and we personally hosted it! His spirit should be extremely tired now, how could he suddenly feel better?"
"Anyway, it should be related to everything that just happened to him... Hurry! Go check it out! If we can figure out this case."
"This is simply an unprecedented specimen in the world!"
Continuous sounds of busyness then appeared in a certain hospital in the real world, accompanied by operations belonging to this group of teams that were constantly querying each other on the Internet, and the same scene also followed the new era of the free world.
The dawn of February 29, 796, has spread among the vast number of players in this world. They use the activated information channels to start looking for clues to all the inside stories that happened on that night in the free world. From the Frey Empire's Imperial City.
The changes in Dekar also gradually came to an end with the arrival of this dawn. The ruins still carrying gunpowder smoke and the traces of battles scattered on the streets told people who didn't know much about the scenes that had happened here.
, and the orders from the palace and some rumors that gradually spread gradually appeared on the edge of these scattered news circles as time passed, and then turned into explosive news that captured the attention of outside players again and again.
: "There is civil strife! There is civil strife in the empire!"
"The imperial nobles launched a rebellion! The mastermind behind it is Prime Minister Caldera!"
"Many nobles have been affected, as well as their private soldiers...I heard that they destroyed the ground of the imperial capital that night and almost blew up the entire Redcar!"
"Is it true? I thought it was a group of desperadoes who were not afraid of death and moved here from Theblis Castle to fight here, and then they wanted to take the opportunity to kill a bigger one..."
"Choose to cause civil strife at this critical moment...Are these nobles of the empire filled with water in their minds?"
Taking a deep breath, Luo Riguyan, who was sitting in a white room, threw away the information page in his hand with an annoyed look on his face: "The things about the restorationists are enough to give us a headache. They
Are you still messing around here?"
"Don't worry, President. According to the intelligence sent back by the military advisor from offline, even if there is no Restorationist involved in this matter, at least there are traitors from the Mages Council acting inside." A soldier named Kashiwagi Shenqing followed.
He responded in a low voice: "They were also the ones who were ordered to act in that place at that time. They also saw those rebellious magicians. Although they did not catch their mastermind in the end, regarding their actions and their purpose, the military advisor should
It has also been found out."
"I have never doubted his IQ." Looking out the window in a certain direction, Luo Riguyan took back his words in a dull voice: "It's just that as a military advisor, he always lets me sit in charge at home, but he himself
Running outside to live happily... No, no! I mean, has he completed the instructions given to him by the Master Council?"
"He didn't mention this." Kashiwagi Shenqing replied in a low voice: "But if the news sent back by the military counselor is true...then the harvest of their trip may be greater than the mission assigned to us by the Mage Council.
It’s even bigger.”
"Huh, that's right."
Tapping his fingers back and forth on the old wooden table in front of him, the red-robed Sunset Guyan slowly closed his eyes: "We have been here for several months, and we have done our best for the Council of Mages.
Try your best, but in the end, let alone the upper-class area, even the ordinary reputation level is not as high as that little girl... What on earth are they thinking?"
"Don't, don't worry, boss, we won't complain about this once or twice." Kashiwagi Shenqing replied cautiously: "We have also inquired about the origin of Mengzhu. He can have a place in this alliance.
She must have some connections of her own."
"I have never heard of this little girl. I have only seen her once or twice in the past League Cup." Rui Riguyan waved her hand nonchalantly: "She doesn't seem to have much talent or strength, but she has always been
Just follow that man, even though that man is now...well."
Perhaps thinking of something that could not be mentioned, the sturdy man in red robe finally dropped the topic: "Anyway, we can't lose the name of Wizard. If we always succumb to the name of 'The Fool',
All our time has been wasted!"
"Brother Nifeng Youran has been out for more than half a month. Calculating the time, he should have almost completed the task." Kashiwagi Shenqing knocked on the system panel in front of him for a while: "As long as the task can be completed, the guys from the Master Council will definitely do it this time.
You can’t refuse our request, right?”
"... I hope so." There was an involuntary smile on his face, but there was still a disapproving expression on the Luo Rigu Yan holder: "Coupled with what happened in the empire this time and the intelligence collected by the military adviser, the Council of Mages should also not
He would have refused our help..."
"Get ready for me. I'm going to meet with the agent of the Seven-member Council."
He sorted out his clothes and at the same time sorted out the information pages placed in front of his desk in his mind: "The City in the Sky, which has been running for so long, encountered such a world trend again...
…”
"If I don't take advantage of this opportunity to make progress, I might as well go find something to do outside!"
He strode across the tables and chairs in front of him, and pushed open the door of the white room. The blue sky and white clouds blowing past him also followed the breeze and passed by the mainland not far away from him.
, and gradually flew towards the distance where the sun extended. A faint whistling sound followed his footsteps and appeared low in the ancient streets and alleys passed by the red-robed magician.
The whole picture of the city in the sky slowly unfolded in the fresh air. The cold atmosphere of this season, which was different from this time, also flowed in the high air of the city and spread around the city like ruins.
The bustling scene that became clear with dawn gradually woke up: "Gems are for sale! Gems are for sale! The gems just unearthed in Area F are all excellent products from the ancient magic empire!"
"Treasures hidden in ruins! Ancient magic equipment! They are all newly unearthed and unidentified items! The opportunity to get rich overnight is right in front of you!"
"A house in the lower district is for sale for only 100,000 gold coins, with a temporary residence permit issued by the Mages Council. It is guaranteed to be from a legal source and the price is fair!"
"The third-class expedition team in Area E is looking for a magician and a healer. Other professions proficient in healing are also acceptable. Relicology and archeology are preferred!"
"...It seems that it has really developed."
Looking at the bustling ruins that had become lively due to the presence of players, a little girl standing on the edge of Tianzhi City sighed and closed her eyes. She felt a cold wind blowing against her face and then remained expressionless.
He stood there for a while, and then raised his head again after a long while as the sunlight gradually fell: "It's a pity that there are not enough manpower now, otherwise..."
"Sister, we are back."
A cheerful call came from behind her, accompanied by the figure of a young thief who ran up to her waving his arms: "Wow, I didn't expect that we actually have a station in the Sky City.
!The eldest sister is really awesome!"
"How many times have I told you, don't call me eldest sister, call me president."
With squinting eyes, she retracted the finger that hit the opponent's head. The little girl named Mengzhu withdrew her gaze from the messy golden hair: "And this place is not earned by us, it is just left by the Council of Mages.
It’s just a legacy given to us.”
"That, that's pretty awesome." Amidst the low snickers of several companions behind him, Walnut Rakshasa, who held his head and took two steps back, replied in a low voice with an aggrieved look on his face: "When I passed by those lower areas before,
, those players looked at us as if they had seen a ghost and didn’t believe it... That’s right.”
"Report." As if he remembered his purpose, he put down his arms and stood up straight: "Corn Team has completed its mission and is now officially returning!"
"Oh? What's the result?" Mengzhu, who was still facing the blue sky and arranging his clothes, asked without looking back: "Have you found any further clues?"
"As for the clue... it should point directly to the Danacan Hills area." The thief replied in a low voice: "It is said to be the birthplace of the Sky City and one of the legendary bases where Metatron was secretly built..."
"I have heard rumors like that many times."
Mengzhu, who interrupted the other party's words and squatted down to start arranging his leather boots, said in an impatient voice: "The City in the Sky is right in front of us. Isn't it a waste of time to search for those things? Instead of following the clues of the wooden box, continue to search.
It would be more practical to leave you in this city to explore those unknown areas... Ah, by the way."
"I heard that you almost lost the wooden box?" The toe of her boot knocked gently on the ground twice. After standing up, she turned sideways and asked as if she remembered something: "The one who stole the wooden box?"
Wasn't the great magician being tried? The people in the Mages Council seem to be quite concerned about this matter recently..."
"What happened to that now?"
