When rescue workers wearing chemical protective suits arrived, all the grown men in the room cried, as if they were seeing relatives they hadn't seen for many years. That scene...
They usually live in a group of five and six, so they can be considered successful people after all. The men are not even as good as the women, and the third female is still trying to maintain her dignity as a public figure.
It was as if years of drinking, sex, and wealth had corroded their courage, which was in perfect contrast to the size of their bellies.
Fan Chaoyue held his tongue, and ignored the inquiry about chemical protective clothing, thinking only about 'offline backpack space'.
She had heard similar rumors for a long time, but this was the first time it happened to her. Looking at the fog covering the world outside, she didn't know what to do in the future.
If the weather is like this, who would have the time to go to the cinema without fear of watching the ghosts pop out on the screen and make the audience dance together?
well!
You need to plan it carefully.
"I am Tie Jun, Fan Chaoyue, right? Are you a player?"
"Uh... I haven't been online for a long time."
"beyond"
There are bright lights everywhere in the manor, but for some reason, the fog is blocked outside the manor. From the outside, it looks like an isolated island inside.
"Sister-in-law, I heard that you encountered a zombie?"
"You'll know after you try it."
She is indeed a very festive little girl, with a round face and wrinkled facial features, she looks like a steamed bun.
"I am a demon player, a big demon. If you hadn't let me go online, I would at least be a mid-level demon now..."
"Just be honest and I'll take care of you later."
"Why haven't I?"
There is really an indescribable power in this text. It is extremely rhyming and leaves a fragrance on the lips and teeth. As the reader reads it, she feels that she is really 'quiet', her mind is settled, and she is quite unfazed by honor and disgrace.
On this point, Fan Chaoyue is surprisingly consistent with his family members.
This is the synopsis of the introduction. The main text is written in a kind of rhyme, half ancient and half white. It rhymes quite well when read, but it makes people confused and doesn’t know what it means.
"Thank God, it's okay to surpass you, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to explain to the chairman."
The structure inside was also very strange, and Fan Chaoyue felt familiar. It wasn't until she saw the magic pattern-like 'pipelines' gathering into the cab in front that she suddenly realized it.
Many men in suits patrolled everywhere with headsets, and probe-like things were erected around the manor.
"I'm going to act anyway."
The studio was in a mess, and protective clothing was checking everyone. A female protective clothing came over and took Fan Chaoyue away.
Sister Hong had just come up and before she could catch her breath, the man in a suit entered the cab in front, and there were only two of them inside.
How did all this happen?
Who knows?
Fan Chaoyue looked at the 'old monk'-like Sister Hong and pursed his lips.
"you……"
"You don't need to understand, it's just like reciting a mantra, recite it!"
"It's hard to say whether there will be an actor profession in the future. Even if there is, it will never be what it is now."
"...What happened today...did you notice anything unusual?"
"Sister-in-law, you are back. They illegally restricted my personal freedom. I will sue them."
"In the future, I mean even if the fog clears that day, there is a high probability that we will not be able to go back to the past. We will enter a new era in which materialism and idealism coexist, function at the same time, conflict and derive at the same time. No one can predict what will happen in the future.
What life will be like, after countless experts have studied and demonstrated, they have come up with valuable advice for individuals: calm down, be self-reliant, and be self-reliant, because the more dependent you are on others and society, the more dangerous you are.
"
"I'm telling you, sister-in-law, grandpa has a lot of investment in Canaan. You know the Tianzhi Group, right? The top 20 level 7 gangs? Grandpa is their major shareholder, as well as King Kong Capital, Red Sea Investment... all of them
It's his old man's business, and it also cooperates with the local government..."
"……I don't understand"
Sister Hong thrust a pamphlet into her. There were three crudely printed Chinese characters on the cover, which read: Jing Xin Jue.
"I don't understand. That's my job. I love performing."
"My dad, my brother, are they okay? Is there anything going on at home?"
The strange-looking aircraft did not land, but a ladder was thrown down. A man in a suit climbed down from the top and waved to the two of them.
"Sister-in-law, offline has to be the same as online, right? You don't have to lie to me, I have also received system prompts."
"You will understand later"
I saw something that looked like a helicopter, but also like... a flying saucer floating overhead. The spotlight cast from above could actually break through the fog?
"The danger mentioned here is not the kind you understand. You have no enemies. Your enemy is yourself. There are also people who cannot control themselves and bring danger to others. Do you understand?"
"Don't think too much, especially on this occasion!"
"You are not allowed to go online, do you hear me?"
A burnt 'zombie' fell at the door of the examination room. The people in protective clothing didn't even glance at it. Every crew member who passed by walked around with hands and feet, talking, shouting, and crying.
Those who scolded, and those who wanted to file a complaint and issue a lawyer’s letter...
"Abnormal? This is not abnormal enough, zombies are..."
"Tell me, what kind of hallucination is it?"
Fan Chaoyue was a little at a loss and did not dare to walk into the strange fog until a beam of light shone down and dispersed the fog above his head.
Flying over the Magic City, what you see is a ghost-like metropolis. There is no light, and the high-rise buildings are like giants silent in the thick fog and darkness, silent, standing, and staring.
As soon as Sister Hong arrived, Fan Chaoyue had a backbone. He couldn't find his assistant, and he didn't know if something had happened. People were panicking, and they didn't notice that she left early until they came outside the photography base and looked at the overwhelming fog outside.
…
"Who are you talking about?" Fan Chaoyue's eldest brother came out, scolded his daughter, and took Fan Chaoyue inside.
"How long and why?"
These people were sitting around, and a gray-haired old expert was explaining to a large virtual screen. Without a headset, Fan Chaoyue couldn't hear what he was saying.
Outside the door of the large conference room on the second floor, Fan Chaoyue eavesdropped on what was going on inside, vaguely hearing something about the fog shield...shelter...material preparation...8 tests...online that was out of control...a 20-seat round table.
Meetings, etc., keywords.
Fan Chaoyue walked into the manor in a hurry. None of his family members were there. They were all senior executives from his father's company.
"I'll take care of you."
"Who did you listen to?"
"Please cooperate with our work."
"That's all?"
The disobedient daughter and the earnest father could not convince anyone. After the quarrel, the father finally compromised.
"Sickened by disease? Did you listen to what others said? What kind of disease did you listen to?"
"I mean, do you personally have any kind of online... connection?"
"Sister Hong"
"……obedient"
Of course, he has a very elegant name, Fan Tuan, and his nickname is Baozi.
As soon as the "flying saucer" stopped, Fan Chaoyue couldn't wait to jump down. The first person to greet her was her little niece, the magical girl Pig Zhuangzhuang.
"Ah, did you talk to your father?"
Fan Chaoyue ran to the lawn outside the manor angrily, "Who does he think he is, the king? Arrangements, arrangements, thinking everyone has to listen to him?"
"Sister Hong, let's go!"
"No!"
The surroundings are surrounded by a fog that makes you unable to see anything, but the inside still seems to be in the human world.
Tie Jun left without looking back. Fan Chaoyue, wearing a white coat given by the rescuers, stopped after two steps.
"Are you questioning the prisoner?"
"It's a matter of character. The system aunt sees that I'm sincere..."
"dad?"
"Anyone and any industry that is highly related to people's impressions and thoughts is in danger."
"Sister Hong, Sister Hong, I'm here!"
"ah?"
"Hmm... It seems I'm not the only one who has such hallucinations, right?"
She has seen the behavior of demon players offline. Some people... ah, no, it should be most demon players. They can no longer distinguish between what is online and what is offline. Their personalities have been changed, and
All kinds of weird 'mutations'.
"OK"
"This, what kind of black technology is this?"
"After all, it was greed that ruined it...Forget it, it's not necessarily a bad thing. Opportunities and challenges coexist."
"We have meetings all day long. They are mysterious. I feel like he is a villain and is carrying out some kind of conspiracy."
"Stop asking, thank you for your cooperation. If you have anything to add, call this number."
This, this... this is not a fantasy drama, it is a fairy tale drama.
"Stop acting in the future, it's too dangerous."
Other members of the crew also emerged from their hiding places, crying for their fathers and mothers, showing no restraint at all.
There's a lot of space inside, and if it weren't for the big propeller on top, this thing would really look like a flying saucer that appears in movies.
It was precisely because of seeing this information that Fan Chaoyue followed his family's arrangements and rarely went online after the 6th test.
It's amazing.
"It's different now than before..."
These people are not qualified enough to enter the conference room. They are all sitting around, talking on the phone and talking in low voices. Everyone is bringing their family with them. It seems that their families have moved here. The banquet hall on the first floor
A mess.
The people in the large conference room were all strangers, including various experts, personal doctors and lawyers, as well as people whose identities could not be identified.
Fan Chaoyue put aside the absurd feeling and recited the beginning silently, and then couldn't help but read it aloud.
"They are very safe, they are just worried about you... go, you can't stay here any longer."
How could Fan Chaoyue be in the mood to chat with her at this time? He asked her, where is your grandfather, with a few perfunctory words.
"Is it important?"
"Well, it was probably around the beginning of the 6th beta test... I heard people say that if you stay online for a long time, there is a risk of contracting the disease. In addition, I was busy with work, so I didn't log in much."
Half an hour later, we arrived at a manor on the outskirts of Shanghai.
"What's so dangerous about acting?"
"It's just like an online system announcement, right?"
This, this... is so magical?
Fan Chaoyue felt a sense of absurdity while holding the pamphlet. When he opened it, he saw that it contained some information on how to keep calm in the fog and stop thinking wildly.
"Come and talk"
The footer says that it is produced by a certain gym in a certain mountain, and the intellectual property rights are owned by it, and any infringement will be investigated.
"What did you receive?"
"Stop asking, we'll tell you when we get there."
"It's too late."
"...Your backpack space appears?"
"Dad, what's going on? Is it the end of the world?"
"I told you to listen and remember everything I say now."
"Where are you going? Did my dad do something without telling me? I asked him how he is so well-informed, he wouldn't..."
"Why can my sister-in-law come in but I can't?" Fan Tuan protested.
"It seems to be talking about updates, access to equipment, etc. It's too blurry and I can't see it clearly."
"You can't control it anymore. There will be no more helmets in the future. You can go online whenever you want, anytime, anywhere, hehe."
"Look at this"
"You eavesdropped on other people's phone calls again."
"Ah... I just had a hallucination."
"Please cooperate with our work"
This weird aircraft isn't very fast, and it's not aerodynamic because it's efficient, but it's quite quiet. There's no roar of the engine, and even the movement of the propeller is very small.
"Even if I go online, I still want to act."
"Stop asking, let's leave quickly."
"Sister Hong, I can't understand"
"Hey, hey, what's going on here? When will the fog outside lift? Is it dangerous to go out like this? Do I need to wear a mask?"
"This update..."
"Why is it like this? He is more happy than anyone else if he doesn't let others play the game. He also hides it from us. When we are online, he doesn't help or say anything, and even instigates people to go against us. Several times. It's so abominable.
Sinister old man."
The protective suit from behind chased her out. Sister Hong pushed her to the man in the suit without saying a word. The man in the suit hugged her waist and climbed up the ladder to the strange-looking aircraft.
"It's that kind of disease. It's been talked about a lot on the Internet. I don't believe you guys don't know about it. Does it matter who you listen to? Rumors are flying everywhere, but I haven't seen you come out to refute the rumors."
"Dad, can't it be undone? For example, banning people from going online?"
"Then, that is, what is that?"
"Really?" Tie Jun's eyes seemed to be able to see into her heart, "As a public figure, you have to have high demands on yourself. Think about it again."
Fan Chaoyue's heart skipped a beat and he said without changing his expression: "No, no."
It is said that after meditation, all evil will naturally be immune to invasion, and the gods and demons will retreat...it seems that they are not aware of the seriousness.
"I'm doing this for your own good... So, aren't you a player? I need your help with some things online. How about you continue to be a player online in the future?"
"In this case...you mean the fog energy outside, can..."
"You were trying to stop me from getting online back then."
"Dad, don't scare me. I was chased by zombies just on the set. Why do I feel so strange when I get home?"
If his little niece was also infected with that kind of 'disease', Fan Chaoyue couldn't imagine what kind of torment his family would be in. Originally, this niece's personality was just that, but if it got worse, she would turn everything upside down.
Sister Hong said in her heart that it was hard to tell in this situation.
Can I go there next?
When Fan Chaoyue was feeling worried, in an instant, the fog that had shrouded the world for more than half a month receded.
