In the captain's lounge with soft lighting, Leona was wearing loose pajamas, sitting by her bedside with a complicated expression, staring at the 3D holographic character of Shuguang Intelligent Brain with a half-smile for a long time. .
"Captain, do you want to participate now? Major Anne and other game players are about to start the matching game."
Seeing Captain Leona's strange expression, the incomprehensible Zhi Nao Shuguang had no choice but to ask again.
Dawn is not only the central brain of the Hope, but also manages all data and network connections of the entire immigration spacecraft, large and small. Of course, it also includes the holographic simulation game that is currently popular on the Hope. After all, this game is prepared for the Hope to recruit qualified soldiers, and its importance is self-evident.
call! Whatever...
Captain Leona nodded toward Dawn, exhaled, and said nothing more.
Then, she stood up directly and planned to walk to a small cubicle next to the captain's cabin. There, there was a set of holographic simulation equipment similar to the dormant life support module, which was originally prepared for her military training. , of course, it can also be directly connected to the current holographic game platform of the Hope.
However, since she woke up before and now, as a captain, she is really busy with things. Not to mention playing games on the National Game Platform, she can hardly spare any time for the planned military training. time.
Therefore, this military simulation warehouse has been kept here for several days, and she has never had a chance to touch it again except when the game was just launched and she went up to confirm the effect.
Fortunately, today, it finally has a chance to be used again, and resources are not wasted in vain. You know, the various supplies of the Hope are generally quite tight, so wasting resources is a kind of Disgraceful behavior!
"Captain, the opponent has already started to enter the game matching room. The game is expected to start in two minutes. If you want to participate, it is recommended that you speed up."
Seeing that Captain Leona seemed to have the idea of participating, Shuguang Zhinao had no choice but to remind the other party once again.
However, the waiting time for each game is not long. If Captain Leona continues to be so slow, she will probably miss this game, even if it has specially made a place for it, but it can wait Once the time is up, the game will still start directly.
"Shuguang, delay their game time a little, I need to prepare first."
After saying that, without waiting for Dawn's reaction, Leona walked directly into the dressing room nearby and began to choose a set of soft and comfortable tight-fitting clothes. Later, when she lay down in the simulation cabin, she would not feel uncomfortable. Uncomfortable.
She has no doubt whether Zhi Nao Dawn can delay the start time of the game! It definitely has this authority.
Besides, who is she, Leona?
Not only is she the captain of the Hope, she is also the highest military and administrative officer of the entire Hope, and she is also the person with the highest authority on the Hope!
Now, it's just asking Shuguang Intelligent Brain to forcibly extend the opponent's waiting time for the game. It shouldn't be a big problem.
"Okay, Your Excellency Captain Leona! According to the security protocol: I have the right to extend the game waiting time for five minutes at your order. Now, you have a total of seven minutes of preparation time."
After watching Captain Leona walk into the dressing room, Shuguang Zhi Nao's holographic projection followed him in without hesitation.
It stood just behind the captain, looking at the captain's beautiful, slender and smooth back, reporting on the waiting time for the game that it had just extended in accordance with the safety protocol.
"..."
After hearing the other party's voice from behind, Captain Leona frowned slightly.
Then, she turned her head a little displeased, and sure enough, she saw the holographic image of Shuguang Intelligent Brain standing behind her a few steps away.
"Shuguang, next time I change clothes or take a shower, please don't follow me like this and peek, or... at least, you should turn your head slightly?"
Although, the other party's image is that of a woman...
Although, the other party is just an intelligent program without emotions...
However, for some reason, Leona was not used to the other party standing behind her so carelessly, watching her perform some daily activities involving personal privacy.
It doesn't matter if it's a busy time or an emergency. She really needs the other party to accompany her and report directly.
However, this is her personal leisure time after all. Leona doesn't like the other party's careless behavior, even though she knows that the other party's logical thinking does not have any concept of voyeurism?
"I'm sorry, Captain, but I don't understand your logic."
Unfortunately, Zhinao Shunao was still standing behind her expressionlessly, with no intention of turning around or leaving.
"The entire Hope, all cabins, including your dressing room or shower room, are all under my security surveillance.
And my current holographic projection is just an external image, it actually has no effect!
So, I can't understand: What's the difference between turning your head and not turning your head, and following or not following? I have thoroughly studied the physiological structure of you human men and women more than a hundred years ago! If my database records are correct, aren't the physiological structures of all of you human women the same?
Or, if you don't like my current image, I can change my image or gender at any time? "
Sugon used 0.1% of the resources in its own computing center to perform calculations for one millisecond and quickly came to its conclusion.
"There's no need to change your image! But please, could you please turn your head?"
Now that the other party is just a female, Leona is a little worried. How could she let the other party change her image and gender? In that case, the twist in my heart will only become greater?
"If this is your official order, I will obey it unconditionally!"
It is completely incomprehensible, why do these human beings have such strange thoughts?
It has long known the various physiological structures of their human bodies, inside and outside, from the appearance to every specific cell!
In this case, is there anything that it needs to deliberately avoid?
Even if it obeys the command and makes the holographic image turn its head or walk out of the dressing room, its monitoring equipment can still see it clearly. Therefore, what Captain Leona just said is not logical!
"..."
Leona was stunned when she heard this.
Then, she came to her senses and quickly put on a tight-fitting cotton sportswear, which finally covered her graceful and charming body.
"Forget it, do whatever you want... Now, prepare to connect to the game for me."
Leona suddenly felt that she was so stupid just discussing these issues with a smart computer!
So, just let it go and take a look! Anyway, it’s just an intelligent program?
Now, it is better to quickly enter the game, have a good leisure time, and observe the little alien girl. There is no need to discuss such ridiculous issues as the differences in human physiological structure with a smart computer.
"Okay, Captain! Now we are ready to connect. Please enter the simulation cabin."
Dawn's holographic projection stood next to the simulation cabin where Leona lay down.
When it saw that the opponent had closed the reinforced safety glass cover of the simulation cabin and closed its eyes, it canceled its holographic image and disappeared into the captain's room.
"Captain Leona, welcome to log in to the official holographic simulation game platform of the Hope again. This is the citizen training game of the Hope: StarCraft! Do you need me to provide you with the necessary novice guidance?"
After Captain Leona closed her eyes and once again began to enter this game platform that was still a bit unfamiliar to her.
She discovered that a magnificent simulation game platform like a huge artificial satellite city located in the universe appeared in front of her, and soon, a figure with the dawn of intelligence appeared in front of her.
"No need! Now, immediately connect me to the game room where Annie, the ghost agent, is!"
Leona doesn't want to quarrel with this Zhinao here!
She is a former UPL regular army officer with service and real war experience! Where else to use the novice guide? She is not the kind of civilian who has never had military training, so she plans to skip this step directly. She is very confident in her own strength!
"Okay, Captain, we are connecting you, please wait..."
"Ding! The connection is completed, Captain Leona, I wish you a happy game!"
Seeing that the captain seemed a little impatient, Shuguang didn't say much, directly bypassed the novice guide and completed the other party's order: through permissions, he was forced to directly access a game room where Major Anne was.
…
In a huge and magnificent interstellar armored transport ship, aboard the Hope, three hundred people participating in the game were bustling and crowded in the cabin of this transport ship.
Among them, there are men and women, old and young, tall and short, fat and thin. This group of people are all wearing the most basic set of simple life-support armor. It is difficult to see each person's life-support armor. The specific faces behind the helmets, and there were no offensive weapons or other equipment on their bodies.
"Oh, let me go! Is there something wrong with the game server today? I remember that the countdown was originally two minutes just now, but suddenly it was inexplicably added to five minutes! But now, look: there should be still The next 4 minutes, why did it suddenly become the last 50 seconds?!"
A big man who hid himself behind a life-support helmet looked at the holographic countdown numbers above the crowd and muttered in a somewhat muffled voice on the public channel.
"I've discovered it a long time ago!"
"Me too! Is there something wrong with my brain?"
"Maybe the spacecraft suddenly accelerated?"
"It could also be that the planet we are going to play the game on has flown far away?"
"Hahaha...you really know how to joke!"
Not only him, but other game participants were also dissatisfied, complaining, or making fun of him.
They have been participating in this national game stipulated by the law of the Hope for several days. However, this is the first time that there is such an inexplicable sudden delay and the countdown to the start time is suddenly reduced. Found it.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and get ready to parachute to land! I don't know if the planet below is a habitable planet? Or is it just like the JNO.3 planet? You don't know, the last time I jumped, a I accidentally fell into a sea of strong acid and burped in a few seconds, causing me to lose 2 points of my rating for nothing!"
At this time, another gloomy voice sounded on the public channel.
You must know that the relevant ratings of this game are related to the positions and relevant military ranks and benefits when recruiting soldiers in the future. At that time, the Hope Recruitment Office will refer to the game data of each citizen who is recruited, and then allocate positions and military ranks.
And if the personal score is too low, maybe he will be destined to be cannon fodder in the future, a Marine private? In that case, someone would really die!
So far, the death rate of Marines in the ground base on the planet JNO.3 is quite high!
"Ha! You idiots, this time, I am going to kill you all! Then, if I join the army with my current rating, I should be able to be directly awarded the rank of sergeant!"
As soon as this gloomy voice fell, another young woman's voice rang again in the public channel of the spacecraft cabin.
Sergeant, this is already a very high military rank in the current Hope military system!
Unless you are a citizen with particularly outstanding abilities, or a citizen with a surprisingly high score, you will generally not receive such a high military rank all of a sudden.
Hearing such an arrogant voice suddenly sounded, everyone crowded in the cabin couldn't help but frown. Sergeant? This is almost the highest military rank one can achieve by grinding points, right?
How many points does she have now? Moreover, the score of the survival game will only be added to the personal ability score and individual soldier page. Could it be that she is preparing to apply for the Marine Corps?
"Hmph! You still want to kill us all? Isn't that a little too arrogant? Let's not talk about the abilities of us people. When you fall down, take a look inside the cabin... Here, there are many short ones. Little man...who knows if there is the legendary red devil among them?"
At this time, another discordant voice sounded.
Then, after everyone who was still noisy heard it, they couldn't help but keep silent.
After being restless for a while, they began to carefully observe the figures around them that were hidden behind the armor.
Sure enough, there are a lot of little kids among them?
I don’t know, they are just ordinary little brats? Or is one of them the Red Devil? If she really is there, then the prospects of these people getting points this time are probably a bit slim?
"..."
After everyone was silent for a while, the countdown quickly entered the last twenty seconds.
Some people have already made up their minds. Regardless of whether there are Red Devils among these people, they will try to kill one or two first to ensure that their ratings will not drop?
"..."
Leona looked at the noisy crowd, who fell silent when she heard someone's name. Her face was hidden behind the protective gear, and she couldn't help but feel a little curious.
Is that little girl really that intimidating?
Just a name can make these people so afraid? They are three hundred people, not three hundred pigs! How could you be afraid of a little girl? It seems that the psychological quality of these people still needs to be improved?
Ah……
Sure enough, these civilians who have not undergone strict military training are just a bunch of rabble!
I don’t know if the training effect of this game can achieve the goals I expected? Or, can Shuguang add some disciplined training to it?
Soon, Leona calmed down, and she decided: After a while, she would teach these people a lesson. She wanted them to know the real difference between ordinary people and the regular army!
————
Attention everyone!
In ten seconds, the hatch of the armored transport spacecraft is about to open!
The simulation location of this survival challenge is: a remote abandoned town on Earth!
Supplies have been scattered in various locations on the battlefield in advance. The electromagnetic shield covering the entire map will begin to shrink five minutes after everyone lands, and will completely annihilate all creatures on the map thirty minutes later!
You must decide the final winner within the specified time...
Happy gaming!
————
Suddenly, while Captain Leona was enthusiastically preparing to teach these gamers who couldn't even be called recruits, a burst of electronic machinery without any emotion sounded in the cabin of this large interstellar transport spacecraft. The sound, accompanied by the countdown of the last ten seconds, indicates that this survival game is about to begin!
Woo~! Woo~! Woo~!
After the sound of electronic machinery, the red light next to the hatch at the back of the spacecraft began to chirp and flash. At the same time, the huge steel hatch at the back of the spacecraft also began to slowly lower toward the rear.
ten!
Nine!
eight!
When the hatch began to slowly lower, huge red countdown numbers began to appear above the crowd.
five!
Four!
three!
Could it be the battlefield on earth? What's the use?
When she heard that it was the battlefield on Earth, Olena couldn't help but frown. She didn't really like hearing the word Earth, it brought back some bad memories for her. Moreover, the environment of the earth does not seem to be of much significance to them in training new recruits, right?
There is no combat environment similar to Earth here. Even if it is to cultivate the recruits' combat capabilities in various environments, they shouldn't choose Earth at this time, right?
Things have priorities. Now, wouldn't it be better and more meaningful to directly use the environment of JNO.3 or surrounding planets?
two!
one!
Games start!
"Are you in a hurry to die? Why are you so anxious? Ouch! Who stepped on me? Ah!!!"
A young man with an obviously thin body had just run to the hatch when he was pushed onto the metal deck by the crowd that surged out from behind him.
Then, countless iron feet wearing simple armor stepped on his back without hesitation, and a group of people jumped out of the opened hatch.
Because everyone knows that when weapons and supplies have been scattered on the battlefield in advance, the person who lands first will definitely have an advantage!
Whether it is occupying a favorable terrain or finding a weapon in time, one second in the morning and one second at night are the key to whether they can survive in the game and obtain a higher score!
"..."
Captain Leona was not like those people who hurriedly crowded together and jumped in like dumplings.
She had just seen the rules of the game. As long as the slowly flying spaceship did not jump over the map, she would be fine. Therefore, she still had plenty of time and there was no need to compete with those people for this.
After a while, the only ones left in the cabin of the huge transport spaceship were the young man who was getting up from the deck, the cursing young man, and Leona, who was left at the very back.
So, after the thin young man jumped off, and before the spaceship was about to fly over the edge of the map, Leona narrowed her eyes slightly, walked quickly to the hatch, and jumped, head and feet, like a diver, directly It fell towards the abandoned town below.
The simple armor worn by them does not have any landing buffer device, and it is useless if it does!
Because this place is tens of thousands of meters high in the sky! At this height, no matter how advanced the buffer device is, there is no way to protect the personnel inside the armor. If they fall directly, they will be turned into a puddle of flesh in an instant?
And there were no parachutes on their backs.
After all, this is the interstellar age. If the airborne troops dare to use that kind of slow parachute, it is guaranteed that they will be defended by the ground's precise and long-range electromagnetic weapons and other efficient energy weapons before landing. , he was beaten to the point where nothing was left!
So, now, each of them has two small paratrooper devices tied to their waists behind their backs.
It is equipped with two micro-particle ejection devices with adjustable directions. When set to the automatic airborne mode, it will automatically open when the paratroopers land to a certain height and spray high-speed particle streams in the opposite direction to help the paratroopers in the air. Before landing, slow down to a certain level.
Of course, if you are skilled, you can also set it to manual mode, and then turn it on yourself after landing at a certain height, so that you can quickly break through the enemy's air defense network and land in the fastest time.
That's because, in the automatic mode, the movement trajectory of the paratrooper device is traceable, but in a real combat environment, it can easily be traced and shot down by enemy air defense weapons.
Of course, manual mode is not without risks. If by chance, you fail to remember to open the paratrooper device in time, or the height is too low, or the control direction is wrong...
Then, it is perfectly normal for there to be casualties, collisions with obstacles, or a puddle of twisted meatloaf on the ground.
"..."
And now, Leona is set to manual mode.
Because, having served in the regular army, she certainly knows the safest and most efficient distance to open the paratrooper device.
Of course, there is no height measuring device in her simple armor now, so she can only estimate it with her own eyes. Although there are certain risks, such a small thing will not be a big problem for Leona.
"I'll go! Another master is here?!"
After a while, next to the position where Leona passed by, there was a man who had opened the paratrooper device by the automatic program and was already gliding and slowing down. When he saw his hands together at his sides, he adjusted smoothly. Olena, who knew the direction and attitude of her flight, couldn't help but scream in surprise when she flew headfirst down from his side.
After playing this game for so many days, they have seen many people landing in manual mode.
However, anyone who dares to land manually is either a newcomer who knows nothing and wants to land as soon as possible, or a so-called master?
As for those newcomers who wanted to seize the time to land as early as possible, most of them died miserably when they fell. Only a very small number of lucky ones were able to land safely.
They have told latecomers with bloody facts: the cost-effectiveness of this kind of manual mode landing is too low. Compared with the scores lost if a mistake is made, the time saved seems completely unnecessary!
Of course, there are a few experts who can always land safely in manual mode every time.
To judge whether the other party is an expert, you can observe it from their flying posture when landing. And now, the woman who just passed by him, it is obvious that she is an expert?
Her flying posture just now, as well as the direction adjustment of her hands, feet and body when she used the air to glide during a rapid landing, all appeared to be very standard and perfect. It was obvious that she was a veteran!
"..."
Okay, this height should be about the same, right?
When she descended to a certain distance and far away from the landing players above, and she could even see clearly the situation above, Leona nodded in her heart and suddenly opened her paratrooper device.
While adjusting her flight attitude and direction, the momentum of her high-speed descent improved and she continued to slow down.
She believed that when she touched the ground, her speed should be just within the range that the simple life-sustaining armor she was wearing could bear. At that time, if she performed a rolling buffering action when she landed, she should be able to That's it.
Plop! ! !
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Leona, who was still descending at a high speed, suddenly heard a huge sound of an object falling into the water from a small lake far below. Then, when Leona turned her head to look over, she only saw Nen saw that a high water column was splashing on the lake?
Someone unexpectedly landed before me... Moreover, he was in manual mode and rushed directly into the lake without turning on the paratrooper device?
Seeing this situation, even Leona was a little stunned.
There is a certain chance that falling into the water will buffer the potential energy and save your life. Of course she knows this, but...
There is a premise for this, and that is: Unless the other party can determine the depth of the lake and ensure that the lake can completely offset and buffer the huge kinetic energy, otherwise, if the lake is not deep enough and you jump out rashly, it will be as different as hitting the ground directly. What's the difference?
"..."
After frowning and thinking for a while, Leona began to swing her hands and legs slightly, adjusted her flying posture, and used her paratrooper device to quickly fly towards the lake over there.
She really wanted to see if the daredevil who jumped first was dead?
If she was not dead, she would like to ask the other party how he or she judged the depth of the lake. Aren't you afraid that there is a reef or something under the lake?
…
After little Annie fell into the water, she now successfully used the kinetic energy of her landing to glide directly from the water to the shore of the lake.
"Ah?"
Then, when she was about to get up from the lake, with her extraordinary eyesight, she suddenly discovered through the clear lake water: high in the sky, there seemed to be a slender big sister. Is she flying towards me? What does she want to do?
So, hey hey...
Then, the eyes behind her visor rolled around, and she just didn't move anymore, letting the final kinetic energy of falling into the water push her to the shore. She lay motionless with her visor facing down. .
