[Let me make a suggestion. Why don't you use rock-paper-scissors? The winner can live and get super powers, 20 US dollars, an AIC figure and other rewards. Others will die. Please don't waste your precious time.]
No one wasted any effort to reply to it.
They are stalling for time with AIC.
They are enduring hunger, and aic is enduring energy shortages.
The more anxious the aic is, the less energy it has. The energy battery taken from them should be almost exhausted.
[It seems that no one wants to win. I regret to announce that your main mission has failed. Please don’t struggle and die... click——]
There was a sudden, broken sound that made everyone's hearts tremble.
Joyce had no reaction. If it could have done that, it would have been done long ago. From the time AIC forcibly pulled them into the test, and now that the lack of energy has still not directly killed them, it has been shown that AIC still has to act according to the originally formulated rules.
.
At least it can't kill people casually.
[I almost forgot, I can't kill you directly.]
Aic's synthesized sound sounded.
[You must be thinking, 'Hahaha, this stupid computer must be helpless, and humans will win in the end'. But do you still remember what I said before, that I have a generator? Well... *long tone*
You know I never say panic. If you don’t believe me, just listen.]
[*Generator operation sound*]
There was indeed a sound effect of a generator operating in everyone's ears.
[You hear that? The generator is working perfectly. So why endure the pain of hunger? Give yourself a break, please.]
In the silence, a lewd voice suddenly sounded.
"Aic-chan, look at our relationship... let me go, okay?"
[Who are you?]
Mu Su was furious: "You are ruthless!"
The conversation broke up unhappily and continued to fall into a stalemate.
This calm did not last long, and a new voice appeared.
[aic made a suggestion to the testers: release nerve gas to allow all testers to die safely and painlessly. Do you accept it? Countdown to 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5...]
"reject."
[Countdown has been reset...10.9.8...]
"reject."
[Countdown has been reset...]
AIC has begun to use very shameless methods to make them die.
After fighting against hunger, they had to pay attention to the ever-elapsed countdown.
This went on for more than ten minutes. At a certain moment, Mu Su suddenly became weak and said: "aic, I want to give a negative review to this copy."
The countdown suddenly disappeared.
"The purpose of game copies is to let players feel a series of emotions such as growth and joy, thereby stimulating their desire to spend money or money and continue playing. But you have nothing. You have to know that the fun of the game is not
It depends on increasing the difficulty!”
Mu Su shouted angrily. What he said had absolutely nothing to do with AIC's callousness. Absolutely.
Joyce lay motionless on the bed, thinking in her mind.
Musu indeed said this during his lecture. In the test of Black Mountain Technology, testers can give feedback on the copy and give positive or negative evaluations.
Now it seems that the feedback is still valid, and can it affect AIC?
Silence lasted for several minutes. Just when everyone thought that AIC could temporarily stop, the situation took a new turn.
[Main mission change: Destroy the wormhole.]
The previous main line of cannibalism was crossed out, and a new main line appeared instead.
The members were relieved but at the same time they were confused. Destroy the wormhole... what should they do? This world probably has weapons such as atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs. Even so, it could not prevent the disaster from happening. What should they do?
And there isn’t that much time to support them in completing the main storyline.
Just when he thought this, he heard Mu Su say: "Be realistic, okay? We will starve to death before the plan is formulated."
[Main mission change: Destroy Hale City.]
"This is okay, and it echoes from beginning to end, and has a profound meaning...an excellent copy. But should we restore our nutritional supply?"
[no.]
aic replied.
[This is just my refusal to supply you with nutrient solution. It has nothing to do with insufficient power. Please don’t think too much about it.]
Of course they wouldn't think much about it. Now they are sure that AIC is on the verge of running out of energy - it is also possible that AIC is playing tricks on them. However, AIC is not Musu and will not do such boring and bad things.
The members broke away from the state of reducing consumption and staying still. First, they comforted the residents of Dawn Town. Then Joyce contacted Hansen through Mu Su.
【I am Joyce.】
In the afternoon, while patrolling the Lindsay Wetlands, Hansen heard a voice in his head.
"I thought something happened to you." He replied, motioning for his men to push away.
[Some things happened in the past two days. We have survived temporarily, but there is not much time left. Now I will keep the story short.]
[When we were in Hale City, we were infected with an unknown virus. The virus broke out a few days ago, and we sealed it in order to prevent the virus from spreading. After a few days of research, we found that the virus is not contagious, but the fatality rate is extremely high. The only antidote is Hale.
The city has.】
"You want me to help you get the antidote?"
[No. Or not entirely. What we want is for Hale City to disappear. 】
"What..." Hansen was stunned.
[Disintegrate Hale City. It can be occupied, annihilated or defeated. If you have an atomic bomb, you are welcome to use it. 】
"I'm sorry I can't agree." Hansen refused decisively. "You should also know the size of Hale City. Those heavy weapons are not something we can fight against."
[You should have seen weapons, right?]
Joyce said this.
In fact, the plasma cutting gun was placed on the table in Hansen's bedroom. Of course he had seen it and tried it. It was incredibly powerful, especially against mutant creatures.
The crude version of the plasma cutting gun has basically no technical content, and someone with a little basic knowledge can imitate it if they get one. The sentry robot is a little more difficult, at least Lindsay Wetland cannot produce the chip.
[We also have a lot of weapons that can be drawn at any time and can be made with existing technology. If you send troops to help us solve Hale City, the reward will be those drawings. ]
This time Hansen was silent for a long time.
He believed that once he had these blueprints, Lindsay Marsh would no longer be a small and isolated stronghold. However, it would be too difficult to destroy Hale City.
"You know, I can't fight Hale City."
【We will help you.】
"But you escaped from Hale City."
[The God of Dawn has regained part of his divine power. He has given us greater strength.]
"Is there no way, Mr. Musu, to detoxify you?"
【Yes. He is very weak now.】
Hansen's heart sank slightly. If Mu Su was also infected with the virus...
"Can't we just get the antidote?"
[We don’t want to gamble. Destroy Hale City and get the antidote formula and prepare it ourselves. Although this is not the most labor-saving way, it is the safest way.]
Hansen seemed to have made up his mind. After taking a deep breath, his eyes became determined.
