The Friday night rush hour is probably the most lengthy foreplay for office workers to deceive themselves. In the endless traffic, people use imaginary relaxing weekends to stimulate their numb nerves, looking for special meanings that may not exist.
At this time, you can find a decent drink shop in advance, pretend to have a cup of coffee, and chat leisurely with friends. You have limited freedom to control but many people have no choice but to spend time on the road. It can be said that you have defeated 95% of people in the city. above people.
This is basically what Yuan Wuwei thinks.
If possible, he didn't even want to talk about anything related to work or past troubles. The problem is, Songkan is quite enthusiastic. For the sake of the old man’s treat, he can only chat with him for a few words and “express” his views by the way:
"Everyone is just trying to figure it out right now. The government and the military are assessing risks and resolving internal disputes; the extraordinary ones are basically delaying and waiting for change; as for that one, I'm afraid they are waiting for the situation to ferment - a simple saboteur is not scary. , the scary thing is that he just pulled a flag and stood there.
"Nowadays, the number of people running under the flag to wave the flag and shout for it is increasing day by day. Once the scale is raised, those who are complaining will no longer be able to hold it in, and those who are keeping a distance will no longer be able to hold it in."
What Yuan Wuwei and Song Kan were talking about was, of course, "Luo Shen"'s divine declaration and dream game. This is the hottest and most out-of-control hot topic on the planet right now.
At present, it is difficult to evaluate the level of social life. But in the Internet circle, the subsequent impact of someone's "god declaration" during a live broadcast to the public is becoming more and more intense.
Simply declaring "I am God" means nothing.
But then the "nightmare" was released all over the world, making more and more people trapped in it and unable to extricate themselves. This suddenly broke through the "normal" limit that most people can bear.
Many people said: That's a lunatic! A madman who makes people fall into collective imagination!
But this doesn't make sense.
In the secular world composed of "common sense", all psychology, sociology, and communication theories appear to be extremely fragile and vulnerable at this moment.
At the same time, the Xiacheng government, which provided Ronan with relevant social privileges and benefits, had begun to shift the blame due to pressure from reality:
Mr. Ronan?
Ah, the expert in collective consciousness.
Yes, it is true that the Xiacheng government provides relevant social authority support, but we provide prescribed treatment to experts who enjoy the special allowances of the Star Alliance Committee in accordance with Article XX, Section XX of the Special Talent Policy. There are reviews, studies, and announcements, and all the processes are complete...
Songkan watched the public opinion evolve into the current situation step by step, but it was still difficult to judge how it would develop in the future: "In the next step, will the Star Alliance Committee endorse it?"
"Probably it's better to hold off, hold your head and squat on guard first, and then pretend to be dead for a while."
How the secular society can withstand the shock wave after "pushing down the wall" and how to digest the "Luo Shen" that even people in the world can't digest for a while. This is a very complex social issue, and it is also outside the scope of Yuan Wuwei's expertise.
He replied casually, and then sneered: "The essence of struggling with official endorsement is psychological fear and rejection, and not accepting reality. Smart people and more realistic people will take the initiative to connect, become familiar with, and
Explore, and then leave everyone else behind countless positions..."
"I thought you were talking about an invitation to explore the Mist Maze."
This sentence was not spoken by Songkan, but by a "passer-by" passing by. Yuan Wuwei and Song Kan looked up in shock and saw a face as handsome as a star.
Songkan was pleasantly surprised: "Mr. Long Qi!"
His next move was to look around: "Is Miss Ruiwen here?"
Everyone was already familiar with each other in the underground tunnel engineering camp. Long Qi was not polite at all and motioned to Songkan to give up his seat, then he sat down and said, "I finally came out for some air, but I met you guys chatting around the corner... I wanted to find Rui. Wen, you must be disappointed. With her brother here, my partner has been abandoned. Moreover, the branch account has been cancelled, and there is no hope of restarting the live broadcast."
"You can register a new one!" Songkan answered quickly, "ZM can cooperate now!"
Long Qi spread his hands, while Yuan Wuwei on the opposite side curled his lips: "Not to mention the pressure from the Federation and even the entire world, what needs to attract people's attention now is the dream game. If it is broadcast live, it will affect the public mood. It is difficult to control, but also The mystery will be lost.
"Now, someone probably needs more self-imagination and self-braining to weave a more deterrent image and leverage stronger power..."
Long Qi was surprised: "Major Yuan has extraordinary experience!"
"No, when I discussed it with Chief Priest Li, I listened to what he said."
"Li Taisheng? You guys are having fun talking behind my back."
"Boss Luo has a good temper, you said so."
Long Qiyi was speechless for a moment: They did keep emphasizing this information during the live broadcast, but who knew that it would be "official announcement" directly afterwards?
"Become a god"?
He smiled coquettishly: "You really believe it."
"What if you don't believe it? There's no way around it."
Yuan Wuwei was very open-minded. As he spoke, he lowered his head and looked at his watch: "By the way, we have nothing to do these days, so we made an appointment to explore as a team in the dream game. Would you like to join us?"
Long Qi was shocked: "Team formation? Team formation in a dream?"
Yuan Wuwei was also shocked: "What are you doing this week? Don't you want to experience it?"
"Well, it's mainly to play with... well, play cards."
"I know this. That card game, Lieutenant General Joseph mentioned, is probably the same as the dream game."
Yuan Wuwei's information channels are both extensive and high-end: "It's not that hard for me to think about several extraordinary species coming together. And I've seen the information you sold. The pace is too fast and there is no sense of experience... But it is said that It has a special training effect and is more suitable for combatants. There is no need for us researchers to join in the fun."
Long Qi's expression was quite speechless. He didn't want to discuss this topic, so he continued to ask about "team formation": "Then what did you experience? The dream game is still a dream after all, and you can actually control the team formation? Also, why did I hear that dreams are also super intense?"
"This is a skill that has been discovered through extensive exploration and sharing." Yuan Wuwei snorted, "By the way, as Miss Ruiwen's partner, haven't you seen her demiplane in the past few days?"
Before Long Qi could answer, Yuan Wuwei had already understood: "Special training is very energy-consuming, I understand."
Long Qi was about to burst into tears. He wanted to explain: It was the "reset button" that consumed energy!
That's why he grabbed it
He ran out as soon as he had the opportunity, without looking for anyone to join him, and turned off all his communicators, just because he was afraid that as soon as the meeting of the extraordinary species was over, they would catch him and start a new game.
Now facing Yuan Wuwei's invitation, Long Qi had no reason to refuse. If you can get some sleep, no matter whether you dream or not, or what the dream is about, it can't be worse than the poker game, right?
Now that they had reached an agreement, the three of them ate some pastries to fill their stomachs, left the beverage shop, and entered the light stream of Lake City at night.
In contemporary urban areas, it is the most normal phenomenon to "not touch the ground." People stay away from the earth and walk between high-rise buildings through overpasses, corridors, self-propelled belts, etc. Reading and understanding three-dimensional maps to avoid getting lost when artificial intelligence becomes mentally retarded is a basic skill that everyone must master in a relatively unfamiliar environment.
None of the three are residents of Lake City. In comparison, Yuan Wuwei and Song Kan, who have often been running outside these days while taking advantage of the "competition" between the big guys, are more familiar with the relevant routes.
But along the way, Long Qi showed an unexpected level of familiarity with the surrounding environment. In particular, the overall sense of direction is particularly outstanding.
Yuan and Song only knew how to turn left and right, and go up and down based on the electronic map and memory. However, Long Qi quickly became familiar with the north, south, east, and west, and even suggested taking a shortcut through the interior of the mall.
Yuan Wuwei combined the relevant information and made a judgment: "It seems that you are also a homeless person 'accommodated' by Lake City... did you live here before?"
Long Qi sighed: "No, it's my first time coming to this place."
"That……"
"Dozens of rounds of card games every day are equivalent to destroying this city dozens of times. Although most of them are destroyed directly, occasionally they try
I have tried street fighting. In order to survive for a longer period of time, I need to memorize a lot of things. "
Yuan Wuwei and Songkan looked at each other.
This topic somewhat stimulated Long Qi's conversation. He turned around and looked around to find clearer memory points and mentioned them one by one:
No matter where there is chaos, the magnetic tracks will become ineffective and collapse if the power is cut off;
You can't go to the main road here, and it will be blocked when you try to escape, and you will die in droves;
If the building on the west side encounters a strong earthquake, the center will be broken, while the building on the east side will collapse entirely;
It looks like a park there, but in fact it explodes into an underground lake. If you jump into it, you will be swept away by the shock wave, and you will die miserably...
It really makes the listener sad and the listener shed tears!
Songkan could barely hold it in, but Yuan Wuwei later started laughing loudly, attracting the attention of passers-by.
I have to say that Long Qi knows how to communicate.
Amidst the laughter, a familiar and relaxed atmosphere formed among the three of them, and they arrived at their destination smoothly. Seeing the layout of the sign here, Long Qi was a little confused:
"Xindu Yoga? Yoga health center? Come here to dream?"
"I just asked you to see the demiplane, but you haven't seen it yet."
Yuan Wuwei always had an unscrupulous character, but now he spoke more sincerely. He pointed to the poster on the outer wall of the yoga studio and the girl who seemed to be intoxicated in the fragrance of flowers:
"Look, do you recognize it?"
"Sss, Raven!"
Long Qi was so shocked that he immediately sharpened his skills. Just outside the yoga studio, he went online and jumped to Ruiwen's half-plane in Tianjie Forum, and found relevant content according to the keywords provided by Songkan.
In fact, there is no need for keywords. This is a highly refined and highly popular post. Its title is:
Are they planning to teach us something?
The post is a demiplane administrator
One of them was posted by Cumin Mianer, but claimed to be posting on behalf of someone else. But this is not the point. Long Qi looked at the beginning of the post, but it was a repetition of the title:
As ridiculous as it is, I wonder, are they trying to teach us something?
Long Qi scanned it hastily and quickly figured out that this was a die-hard Ruiwen fan. After witnessing the live broadcast that day, he had been repeatedly trapped in the dream of fighting.
You can probably guess between the lines that this is a woman. According to her, she was almost collapsed by the endless battles at first and almost had a nervous breakdown. In order to relieve the symptoms, she used the breathing techniques she learned in Raven's first public video to adjust her state and try to enter tranquility.
Not only before falling asleep, but also in dreams, I tried hard, and finally after a desperate death...
"I found that I 'woke up' in a dream and was in a familiar place."
Heart Yoga.
In fact, the post contained a hand-drawn scrawled image, and there was no signboard, indicating that it was not advertising. But already at the scene... at least it was Long Qi who had the same decoration style, and he could be recognized at a glance.
"This is the only brand Ms. Raven advertises. Everyone knows it. There are no enemies and no battles here. It's like a safe zone. At first, I just wanted to take a breather, but then I couldn't help but start exploring.
"And the moment I started trying, I understood: my dream, to be precise, the permissions in the dream are different from most people's."
The post is very long and detailed, and I am constantly revising, improving, and recording my thoughts. For nearly a week, record and supplement once a day.
From the content of subsequent posts, you can see:
"Xinduyu
"Yoga" itself is nothing special. It is only used as an initial save point, and can also be used at home later. However, "Xindu Yoga" is a professional institution with good environmental conditions, making it easier to fall into silence and use machines to record values.
With his newly acquired freedom of dreaming, the writer began to "shopping" in Summer City with the yoga studio as the center, and gradually enriched his knowledge:
Be still, be still, be still! Get out of the war, get out of the war, get out of the war! This is the premise of everything!
There are many people who enter the dreamland, but compared to the total population of the city, it is still limited;
There will be random character cards in the deck, wreaking havoc in the city, and hunting down dreamers all over the city;
After you escape, you will blend into the background of the city and will not be hunted, but you cannot get too close to those character cards, let alone tease them;
Sometimes you will lose your memory when you are killed, and sometimes you will also lose your memory if you are not in good condition...
Very consistent with the characteristics of dreams.
Next, the key points come:
"I ended my aimless wandering and tried to go to some more meaningful places. Yes, places where I might meet some key people, such as Zhixing Academy.
"We all know that vampires and Raven first appeared in front of the public, right here, in the underground laboratory of North Shore Gear.
"...I succeeded? Although I was blocked by the access control of the underground laboratory, I did not see the vampire or Raven. But the 'flag bearer' at the door, this artificial intelligence that seems to exist in reality, gave me Clear missions, and a rough reward path.
"So I understand, the game has just begun.
The most eye-catching first task assigned to the writer is:
Let's get more people out of the game's cutscenes!
Even the dragon
Qi had no similar experience, so when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but shout:
Dry!
