Gu He couldn't tell whether such a high profile was good or bad in this world of unknown nature.
This comic expo has many booths. Official personnel from exhibiting manufacturers and private cosplay groups put on various displays. There is also a performance stage where performances and product introductions are held. It is a lively event.
But this night, the protagonist belongs to "Vivian" who seems to have stepped out of the game.
Everyone who cosplayed as Vivian lost their sparkle, and even the cosplays of other people became ordinary.
Tourists flocked here after hearing the news, and many people who didn't believe it looked like it couldn't say anything just by looking at it.
Of course, there will always be some people who want to find faults no matter what: "They have had plastic surgery, they have no temperament, they are just ordinary things." "Those tattoos look like stickers at first glance." "The clothes are well made, forget about the people." "Sure enough, the second dimension is better.
.”
However, as they were talking, they were suddenly in a daze when that "Vivian" smiled at them...
Gu He noticed it and was very helpless. He even told him not to use extraordinary programs casually.
Vivian felt like a fish in water here, and soon walked into the "Nerve Overdrive" booth as a freelance cosplayer, and then walked onto the stage to interact with the official guests present.
Not only that, people who want to negotiate business performances, make appointments for photos, videos, live broadcasts, and other activities of this kind all flock to her because of her beauty.
Gu He didn't know how much voodoo was involved, and how much was because she really had such commercial value.
"My boyfriend has full authority to handle me." Vivian said so, so these people turned to him.
"You misunderstood." Gu He picked up Pang Dahai and replied: "Her boyfriend is this, Pang Dahai."
Pang Dahai stuck out his scarlet tongue, gasped, and barked a few times, "You think it's funny? No matter as a dolphin or a dog, my desire to fuck you is unimaginable. I can even fuck you if I get ruthless."
"Well..." Gu He said, "The owner of the coffee shop has already sterilized you."
"What do you mean by Mr. Gu?" Xie Yide, the publicity and promotion staff of "Nervous Speed", looked confused.
"Nerve Overdrive" is developed by Ypsilon Company and is operated by Spread Group in the country.
Xie Yide is an employee of Fanfan and is the person in charge of promoting the game at today's comic show.
It is not easy to find such a good cosplayer. Besides, this "Vivian" is fully qualified to become an Internet celebrity and has huge potential. What she needs is further packaging and exposure.
If she becomes popular, the people who discovered her will also benefit, so Xie Yide is very concerned about this matter, "Miss Wei has a really good image, and it is not impossible to become an Internet celebrity actor."
"Well, she's not an actress..." Gu He looked at Vivian who was chatting and laughing with the host on the stage.
Xie Yide understands the psychology of this kind of boyfriend. He is afraid that his girlfriend will abandon him if she becomes popular. This is really the case.
"Actually, Mr. Gu, your image is also very good." Xie Yide added, "I think you are very suitable for playing the role of the old fan in his youth."
"Lao Fan?" Gu He was surprised, "Except that we are both from the East, how do I look like Lao Fan?"
"I feel that if you put on Dongtu sportswear, Mr. Gu, you would look like that." Xie Yide said with a smile.
Several other publicity personnel around him, as well as some passers-by who heard what he said, all nodded in agreement, feeling that it made sense.
Although the owner of the fish pond, Lao Fan, is old, short and fat, the period of the killing sword must have been different, and he should have looked like this.
Gu He frowned and looked at the other person, was it because of Dongtu's sportswear? How did they feel this way?
He didn't appear as a character in "Neuro", but he had some influence...
"We'll think about it."
Gu He didn't want Vivian to cause trouble, but in order to deal with these people, he accepted all their business cards first.
I refused to add friends on instant messaging software, and declined some invitations to have late-night snacks after the comic show.
When Vivian walked off the stage, he shouted at her to leave. Fortunately, Vivian did not continue to make trouble this time and followed him like a cute little bird, which made other people's eyes become complicated.
Gu He neither enjoyed the limelight nor the envy and jealousy of other men.
Because he knew that it was not that at all.
After leaving the comic exhibition hall, he took Vivian all the way to a parking lot near the commercial building where his psychological consultation room was located, drove his car, and drove back to his apartment under the cover of night.
"Okay, Dahe." Vivian sat in the passenger seat of the car, "I'm doing well here, and I still have a car."
"I am indeed a successful person here." Gu He pays great attention to the road conditions, but now there is no tentacle to assist driving.
Fatty squatted in the back seat of the car and barked: "Successful people only drive small cars like this, not even sports cars. The standard of success in this world is really low."
"Okay, lay down." Gu He sighed and told Vivian about the current situation while driving.
This was no ordinary fantasy, and the people she saw and interacted with were not that simple either.
"Oh?" Vivian looked out the car window. It has been snowing over the past few days in Liuguang City, but here it is almost summer in July. Passers-by are wearing cool clothes and walking around. There are so many people eating late-night snacks at street stalls.
few.
"Have you grown up here since you were a child?" She tutted, "This basement is really big."
"I don't know." Gu He shook his head, "Maybe it's a false memory. I'm not even sure if you are real."
"Dahe, it's impossible to say for sure. The Heart Network has always had countless secrets. Whether it's in a bank or on the street, even the top cyber cowboys can't see its full picture.
"Just talking about the Personality Rubik's Cube, there are so many of them, no one can tell who those Rubik's Cubes are or where they are."
As Vivian spoke, she took his mobile phone and started playing with it, wanting to see the humanities, history and other aspects of the world.
But after just a few minutes of watching, she put down her phone, her face slightly changed, "My personality was affected..."
Gu He looked at her doubtfully and thought of something, "Open that APP and look at the e-books inside."
Vivian probably understood what he meant, so she listened and obeyed. She opened a book and read a few pages, then said in a low voice: "There is also a shock. It seems that I have received some data. I feel that my personality and program have to be digested."
it."
"Experience data package?" Gu He asked, Vivian nodded: "That's what it feels like."
"Stop reading it now and try playing that game again, "Neuro Overdrive"," he said.
Vivian opened the game, used his account as "a big salted fish drinking wolfberry water in a fish pond", went through the tutorial to figure out how to play, and then started matching.
Probably because her reaction and hand speed are extraordinary, even if she uses an old style, she can still play smoothly.
I won the first round and also won the second round.
A message appeared in the chat box from other players praising Lao Fan for playing well.
"Except for Lao Fan, everything looks annoying." Vivian said, "I don't feel any discomfort at all."
"That's knowledge." Gu He said thoughtfully, turning the steering wheel and turning around.
It is the understanding of the world and the details behind it.
If she is playing a game that expands her knowledge, she, an outsider, should also be impacted by the information and need to digest it slowly. Otherwise, her personality integrity will be reduced, the program will go wrong, and both of them may even be at risk of collapse.
Books are undoubtedly a medium with a huge amount of information, and she cannot read them randomly.
Perhaps the more you see, the stronger your connection with this world becomes, making it difficult to leave.
"So, it's safest for me to be an illiterate here." Vivian listened to Gu He's thoughts, "You must be smarter for a while, and this is your hometown, you know."
"Anyway, the current situation is unclear." Gu He didn't understand much, "We have to be careful."
He didn't know what the attitude of the intelligence was now. He probably knew that Vivian had come in.
"Then you are wrong." Vivian stretched out her hand outside the car window and swayed in the wind, "You live a careful life. Isn't that what you said the agent wants you to do? We just want to make a fuss. If the fuss gets bigger, the truth will come out.
Come to us."
"Uh..." Gu He felt that she was right, but it was dangerous for her to reach out like this.
"Take your hand back first. I don't want you to break my record of never deducting points on my driver's license. I suggest that we go back to bed first and see if you can go back to Flowing Light City." He said.
"Sleep well." Vivian's eyes lit up.
Gu He ignored her ambiguous words, "If you can go back, immediately find a way to contact Lorna, and tell Elizabeth, everyone in the fish pond my news, and see if I can find a link from you..."
"Oh, oh." Vivian responded noncommittally.
The apartment was not far away, and the car entered the apartment complex not long after driving.
The community is also quite lively at night, with people walking, running at night, and walking dogs. Vivian can honestly say that life is really good.
It was just that the two of them and the dog returned to Gu He's rented unit. As soon as they entered the door, Pang Dahai barked and said with disgust: "Why do you live in a small box in Liuguang City and also live in a small box here!"
Vivian was also slightly disappointed: "Aren't you from the Fantasy Clan? You don't even have a villa."
"If I accept it, I can become the richest man in the world." Gu He said, "But that may also be an acceptance...illusion."
"Don't think so much." Vivian turned to look at him, her colorful hair swaying lightly, "There is at least one real existence here, and that is me. If you touch it, you will know how much reality there is."
She stepped up her long legs and pulled her white top with both hands, causing her big cup to sway slightly during the half step.
"Stop making trouble." Gu He called out.
"Dahe, I originally wanted to play a game with you slowly." Vivian smiled, "But now, let's taste it first, then just treat it as a sexual dream, hahaha."
"What do you want..." Gu He couldn't help but feel a little nervous because he couldn't use his extraordinary powers now.
"I want to teach you how to be an adult." The corners of Vivian's lips became higher and higher, "Come on, be obedient."
Gu He was about to run away, but his spirit was still affected. She was using voodoo. Many strange lights and shadows seemed to pass before his eyes, and a psychedelic vortex appeared vaguely...
"Don't worry about me." Pang Dahai squatted beside the sofa and looked at her, "I just like to watch handsome guys and beautiful women posting."
Just as Vivian stepped forward, the swirl of light in Gu He's mind became brighter and brighter, and the voodoo data surged away.
Whoosh - ah bang! That indescribable sound is also looming...
Gu He suddenly woke up and saw rows of information codes flashing around him.
"Huh?" Vivian stopped in confusion.
"This!" Gu He suddenly understood. The more poisoned he was and the more external information he received, the greater the attack on the illusion.
Is this a way...
He immediately said: "Vivian, come more, more."
But Vivian's voodoo was also a kind of consumption on herself. When she saw that it couldn't have the desired effect, she stopped first.
She licked her lips and rubbed her hands together, "Since I can't poison you, then I'll force you."
"Oh my god..." Gu He stepped back repeatedly, but the living room was not big and there was only so much room, "Don't come over here."
"Not only do you have to come over, I also want to teach you how to play many new games."
Vivian's figure suddenly rushed forward, and the speed of the third programmer was still there.
Gu He was now an ordinary person, unable to dodge at all. With a blink of an eye, he was hugged by Vivian and wanted to kiss her...
"Ah." His struggle was not as strong as hers, so he had to tilt his head back, "You are not doing this, this is wrong!"
"Oh my God, I was wrong, please punish me severely." Vivian said pleadingly, "But before that, I must first make the big mistake you mentioned."
"Vivian, no!" Gu He struggled endlessly, "Pang Dahai, come here and bite her!"
Pang Dahai squatted there and gasped, sticking out his tongue, "I just like such a direct woman."
"Hahaha!" Vivian laughed, "Dahe, think about Lorna. The more you think about her, the more excited I am. Why, what is this? You say you don't want it, but your body is very honest."
Damn it, Gu He was really anxious, his nerves suddenly seemed to be running in overdrive, bang bang!
His hands exploded with an impact force, and a large number of blood-threaded pixel grids were flying. Vivian was immediately shaken away, unable to stop her steps, and almost knocked over the fabric sofa.
"Dahe, you..." She frowned, "Have you regained your extraordinary strength?"
Gu He lowered his head and looked at his hands, trying to move them again, but there was no movement. Just now it was just an urgent information shock.
Vivian didn't need him to answer. She knew at a glance that he hadn't yet, "Well, it seems that I am the key to activate you. Once activated, you won't have to play with it. So I'll let you go tonight."
She sat down on the sofa, her interest having shifted again, "Turn on the TV and let me see something interesting."
"What?" Pang Dahai lay on the floor in disappointment, "Compared with dolphins, you humans are too inferior."
"Drive it yourself. The remote control is there. There are a lot of TV information. As Jane said: be careful of information overload!"
Gu He didn't care about Vivian for now. There had been so many voodoo attacks just now. Is there any new change in this world...
He took his mobile phone and opened the hot news search first, and saw that there was no difference. Then he looked at "Nervous Speed", and there was still no Gu He, but it had a lot more transcendent skins, and Lorna had several more krypton gold skins.
One of them is a New Year's outfit, dressed like a red envelope.
"Vivian, all the voodoo you just created has been transformed into game content, and it should all be in it."
"Who is the company behind this game?" Vivian looked at the TV and said, "Hey, there are a lot of programs."
Gu He's heart suddenly thought, and she reminded him.
He didn't think much about the game company behind him before, because according to the "resetting" of the agent, if there is one more company or one less company, isn't it just a matter of changing some codes? But is it really that simple...
"Domestic operator Spread Group is a giant company in this world, and developer Ypsilon Corporation."
He searched on his mobile phone and checked it out.
Ypsilon Corporation is a foreign video game company, and its most successful game is "Neuro Overdrive".
With this game, it has also developed various peripherals, such as global e-sports competitions, figures, animation, live-action, etc. Over the past ten years, Ypsilon has become a big company.
"I don't know much about the game industry. I'm not sure if there was an Ypsilon company before."
After all, the screen of the mobile phone was small. Gu He went into the bedroom, took out his laptop, and sat down on the sofa.
"What is this?" Vivian looked at the device, "Laptop? The technology here is quite advanced."
Santo and Seth have also launched laptops, but they are not as thin, light and compact.
"It's not that advanced." Gu He said while turning on the computer and surfing the Internet. "It's probably more than thirty years ahead."
He continued to check Ypsilon Company's information in detail, but he didn't see anything. But when Vivian saw the photo of the company's founder and CEO, she suddenly stopped: "Stop, this person..."
"
Rab Reese, a middle-aged man who looks to be in his forties, is wearing a black formal suit in the photo.
"Why." Gu He was suspicious, "Do you know him?"
"The way he looks," Vivian said, "I know a guy who looks exactly like him, Carl Wilson."
Gu He recalled this name that Sophia had said many times, "Sofia's former director of the Heart Network team? How could... wait, what happened to Carl Wilson?"
He knew that on the day of the Walled City Festival, both Sophia and Wilson were captured.
He had asked before, but Lindsay said she had left it alone, while Vivian and Nimue both laughed and said nothing.
"Carl Wilson is an old Internet cowboy who had his glory days and was nicknamed the 'door-breaking roughneck'. Because of this, he was recruited from the streets by Gassboin."
Vivian looked at the photo and said, "Because of his qualifications, we won't torture him, and what's the point of an old man? Nimue doesn't even bother to whip him.
"But this Carl Wilson has long been a lackey of the bank. He will do anything to get promoted, so we don't give him a good look. At that time, when he was playing in the heart network, he would be driven to anything dangerous and explosive.
, because he was poisoned by voodoo and his body was controlled by us, so he did not dare to run around.
"But a long time ago, there was a bad explosion, and Wilson's personality Rubik's Cube exploded, indeed.
"As a cyber cowboy, Wilson died in the heart network and became a pile of information fragments, which can be regarded as his final destination."
"Oh..." Gu He looked at Rab Reese on the screen in deep thought, "I have never seen Carl Wilson before. This face cannot be due to my influence."
He looked at Vivian, "It can only be because of your influence. Either caused by voodoo; or, your personality has declined due to receiving knowledge, and those personality data have spilled out.
"But after all, the world is also accepting and digesting you."
The more he spoke, the more horrified he became, "As time goes by, you will no longer be an outsider, not in any aspect."
"Then I really can't leave even if I want to?" Vivian thought, "Then we might as well stay here forever."
"Can you be serious?" Gu He looked at the man on the screen, "I wonder if this man has any sense of personality."
If so, whose...
"Contact him, and you'll know once you meet him." Vivian crossed her long legs, "There must be something wrong with this company."
Pang Dahai has been listening. He jumped on the sofa and looked at the dog's head, "These are the successful people, the ones who drive sports cars and live in villas. They won't let you see them casually."
"Uh." Gu He thought of something, took out a stack of business cards from his pocket, and pulled out one of them, Xie Yide, the publicity person of the Spread Group.
"You, Fatty, can't do it," he said, "but Vivian, you can."
"Dahe, do you want me to be famous?" Vivian smiled charmingly, looked at the TV, and pressed the remote control at will, "I feel like I can become a bigger star here than Qianye."
"You go to bed first and see if you can go back. Stop watching TV and go to bed first!"
