No objection.
Lin An nodded, a look of exhaustion flashing in his eyes.
Every suggestion from Chu An was fine.
However, he didn't expect that the problems he faced would develop so quickly that he couldn't even take a short break.
However, this is the end of the world.
After confirming that he would go there, Lin An turned to look at Colonel Chu with some doubts:
"What do you mean by the spread of three major events?"
"Is there a large-scale meme outbreak around us? Is it the white fog in the Wangjiang Military Region?"
Lin An was the first to ask, and it was obvious that Lin An could tell that almost all of Chu An's worries were related to three major events.
"Wow-la"
Pulling out the bottom half of the report, Chu An pondered for a moment, then handed the report to Lin An:
"This is the information I collected during this time."
"And...intelligence traded from the Capital Military District."
Looking down, the report in his hand was obviously much more detailed than what Chu An had given before. Densely packed small words, matched with pictures, fill the white paper.
While Lin An was reading, Chu An explained again;
"As mentioned before, whether it is to stop absorbing survivors or to master military satellites, it is essentially to prevent the spread of the incident."
After pondering for a moment, Colonel Chu seemed to be preparing his words. After a few seconds, he spoke:
"Let's start from the beginning. Although it's a bit long-winded, it's necessary."
"Lin An, you may not have noticed a phenomenon."
"That is when you completed the safe zone upgrade, you received a mission difficulty reduction reward for the Chinese Theater."
Lin An nodded. That upgrade not only opened up death matches and catastrophes, but also provided rewards.
Sitting across from each other, Chu An continued:
"It seems like a 10% difficulty reduction is nothing. But in fact it has a huge impact, and it is also one of the root causes of the problems we are currently facing."
Facing Lin An's slightly confused look, Chu An simply explained carefully:
"The reduction in mission difficulty resulted in two subtle changes."
"1. It is easier for survivors to survive. A 10% reduction in difficulty actually increases the survival rate by much more than 10%. It is also a critical point effect."
"In fact, you should have noticed that the number of trialists sent by the Chinese Military Region this time is the largest in the world."
"It's not just the military region's own... planning reasons. This reward also plays a vital role."
"2. Reducing task difficulty does not simply reduce B-level tasks to B-. In the system's judgment, it will even reduce a large number of special types of tasks to a standard by default and distribute them. Similarly, this ratio It’s also much higher than 10%!”
"It's like if you can beat the second level, then in the system's judgment, if a certain meme task is only slightly more difficult than the second level, then the system will give it to you."
At this point, while everyone was still thinking, Lin An suddenly raised his head and realized what Chu An wanted to express.
"You mean, the entire Chinese War Zone received a large number of special missions because of that reward!?"
"And issuing tasks means generating memes, supernatural beings, and special things. Therefore, the proportion of such incidents has skyrocketed!?"
"That's right..."
Sighing, Chu An simulated a wry smile on his face:
"Not only that, but because more people have survived, more tasks have been issued. When the two are superimposed on each other, a large number of three types of events are generated."
"The scary thing is that this kind of event is not difficult in the eyes of the system, and we should be able to complete it. But in fact... many people cannot complete it at all after receiving it."
"With a huge population base, many Category III incidents have become unowned tasks and can be freely 'moved' in various war zones."
"There is another factor among them. That is that the chat channel is opened in advance, which leads to an increase in the spread rate of memes in the survivors' cognition."
"Many local "ghost legend" meme incidents spread like viral infections in the channel after encounters between the parties involved."
His expression became more solemn.
Several people who had followed Lin An and encountered the memetic incident were even more uneasy.
"Then the memes spreading in the chat channel are unsolvable!? I've seen them before, but..."
Gao Tian came back to his senses, feeling a little unbearable fear.
Take the memetic incident as an example. This kind of thing seems to be able to be solved by a child with correct thinking, but in fact, it is so difficult that it can kill even a third-level person.
Recalling the "crazy words" that suddenly appeared in the chat channel during this period, Gao Tian instantly realized that what Chu An said was probably true.
Asia... no, the various ghosts and legendary events in the Chinese region have been accumulated for more than 5,000 years!
"No, but it's close."
As if to appease people's hearts, Chu An shook his head slightly.
"A chat channel doesn't proliferate memes, it doesn't have direct access to the mind like broadcast rights."
"Otherwise, if you just give out the meme dolls and use them where they are, wouldn't everyone die?"
"The extra information in the channel can only be said to be equivalent to giving a superficial impression to survivors who do not know this meme."
"It's like putting a mark on it for easy dissemination."
With his eyes flashing, Lin An put down the report in his hand and tapped it with his fingertips.
"So, we can no longer accept survivors because we are worried that someone will be "infected" with the meme and sneak into the city."
"Just like a virus, there are always some kinds of unusual and hidden things that exist in the logic of thinking."
"Once it spreads, it will be a disaster."
"And military satellites..."
After glancing at Chu An, Lin An continued:
"With the existence of military satellites, we can at least detect abnormalities in large-scale gatherings in advance."
"High-risk memes or supernatural events usually have strong spreading capabilities."
"As long as there is an abnormal gathering of humans, we can be prepared in advance."
"Not only that, we can also give early warning in case of disaster."
Speaking calmly, Lin An also roughly understood what Colonel Chu wanted to express.
The spread of three types of special events is indeed the most difficult thing.
As for if an abnormality is found, it is self-evident what needs to be done.
On a small scale, if we are sure of solving the problem, we will send out manpower.
Large-scale, unsolvable properties are discovered and eliminated in advance.
As the saying goes.
(We discover, we resolve.)
(We contain, we protect.)
(The meme got out of control and we ran away with the bucket.)
In the brief silence, the taciturn An Jingtian suddenly spoke, looking a little confused:
"Brother Lin, why do I always feel that the system is targeting us..."
"According to Colonel Chu, it was us who saved these people, so we will be even worse?"
"This is not a reward, it is clearly a punishment..."
Seeing that he was a little lost and couldn't bear to imagine An Jingtian in the future, Lin An replied calmly:
"As Chu An said, everything has two sides."
"The three major events are terrifying, but the rewards are also generous. If you can complete them, the rewards you will receive are far beyond those of normal tasks."
"If nothing else, isn't Zhang Tie's combat power given by Immortal Shura?"
"Completing the meme mission, even if the reward is only a part of the meme's characteristics, is enough to qualitatively change the strength of the person who completes it..."
There is no way to be more relieved.
Lin An and Colonel Chu looked at each other, knowing the subtext behind the other's entire discussion.
The system never cares about human life or death, it seems to only care about whether you can stand out among the piles of bones.
Even if tens or hundreds of billions of human beings die from endless disasters, only one person can survive to the end.
Then for it, it is "worth it".
Living requires a price.
More people alive, more costs.
