Alien Relic Hunter.

Chapter 529 Full Immersion System
"If it is killed instantly, it will be a moment of pain at most... But I am afraid that the kind of people who are seriously injured and still hang on their breath will not die, and their mental state is also in a state of sobriety... Just the illusion made my heart tremble a little bit."

The heart is not good because you are overweight... Ke Lan complained in his heart, even if this kind of virtual world immersion device can restore the real feeling [-]%, but the protection mechanism of the human brain can still take effect, if you really suffer Unbearable pain, this protection mechanism will automatically take effect——

First, a sufficient amount of "endorphin" is secreted, which is a biochemical synthetic hormone similar to morphine, which can bind to morphine receptors to produce analgesic effects. It is a "painkiller" produced by the human body itself.

If the situation is so serious that even endorphins can’t solve the problem, the brain will directly choose to “unplug the network cable”, which is commonly known as “protective syncope”. This situation is reflected in the virtual world, which is almost the same as the game character’s disconnection Same.

In any case, at least the user's body will not be damaged in the real world. Compared with fighting with real swords and guns, the safety of this fully immersed system is still much stronger.

At least there will be no vicious incidents like Mann's attempt to take advantage of the loopholes in the game to kill people - even if someone wants to torture the opponent, the tortured party can also disconnect by voluntarily abstaining from voting... In reality, Giving up resistance will only make you die faster.

"I just don't know how realistic this device is..." Ke Lan can be sure that the operating cost of this platform must be extremely high at this stage.It is not cost-effective to use it to train ordinary soldiers, but if it is used to train special professions such as elite pilots, special forces or warship pilots, then this deal will definitely make a profit - after all, a piece of data and a genuine ship It is clear at a glance whose actual value is higher.

With the subsequent development of the virtual immersion system, this thing can even be used for battle deduction... With the computing power of the core brain of the Ark, it should be more than enough to handle the data flow of several fleets and hundreds of thousands of ground troops.

"Well, no matter what I say, you can only know that feeling if you experience it yourself, so I used all the connections and resources available to help you get an immersion cabin in advance. When you receive this email , things should almost be sent to the Zero Fleet."

Seeing this sentence, the corners of Ke Lan's mouth couldn't help twitching—this fat man is taking credit for himself again. If there is no acquiescence from the Ye's consortium, with his resources, it may not be possible to give him two prototype skeletons. Question, but this kind of immersion cabin involving core secrets is absolutely impossible to be taken out of the competition venue, let alone be given to others in a private name.

This immersion cabin was probably sent by the Ye's consortium to show their goodwill to him. After all, the two parties are now in the "honeymoon period" of cooperation. I just gave them such a big gift. Of course, Ye It is not unreasonable to understand the principle of reciprocity.

Ke Lan finished reading the instruction manual attached to the email, and just at this time, the phone on the desk rang.

"Mr. Ke Lan, there is a piece of material sent by Ark that needs to be signed by you personally. The sender is Ye Yan from the Ye Family Consortium."

……

"New Dawn", Medical Room No. [-].

Although Ye Yan repeatedly assured in the email that there is absolutely no problem with the safety of the immersion cabin, Ke Lan still chose the testing location in the medical room just to be on the safe side.

If he is lucky and something unexpected happens, it will be more or less convenient to rescue him here.

It's never wrong to plan for the worst in everything.

The immersion cabin is packed in a standard shipping container—although the main body of the immersion cabin is just a "metal coffin" more than three meters long, the attached terminal server is enough to turn the otherwise empty No. The room was packed to the brim.

This big guy can't help but remind Ke Lan of the first electronic computer in human history - the "Eniac" that weighs more than 170 tons and covers an area of ​​[-] square meters.

The volume and weight of the accessory equipment of this immersion cabin are even higher than that of "Eniak".

The internal structure of the immersion chamber is divided into two sections. A baffle with a silicone sealing ring separates the user's head from the body—in order to minimize brain damage, the user's head must be completely immersed in the LCL In the life-support liquid, the effect of this thing is equivalent to a miniature medical cabin. As for why not soak the whole body in it, one is unnecessary, and the other is to save costs.

High-quality LCL liquid, that is a luxury equivalent to gold.

"Or, let me do the test." Cheng Dong, the leader of the special agent team of the Security Bureau, looked at the "metal coffin" in front of him, and at Ke Lan who had already put on a special immersion suit, and couldn't help but said.

The main task he was sent to Fleet Zero was to protect Ke Lan's safety. If something happened to this "important person", he, the team leader, probably wouldn't have to continue working.

"It's okay, this thing is not an experimental model. After the competition officially starts, the immersion cabin used by the contestants is exactly the same as the one in front of us." Ke Lan said, and then pulled on the hood of the immersion suit.

This kind of special immersion suit is a bit like the tights worn by acrobat performers. Ke Lan's fingers, feet and head are tightly wrapped in the thin gelatinous fabric, as long as the face is exposed, He could even clearly feel the tiny wires embedded in the fabric on his skin.

When Ke Lan lay down in the immersion cabin and the neck baffle dropped, he suddenly felt a bit like King Louis XVI of France who was guillotined.

The only difference is that Louis XVI was face down when he was beheaded, while he was face up.

The sealing rubber ring of the baffle fits closely with the reserved groove on the shoulder and neck of the immersion suit. The assistant staff first connected the cardiopulmonary monitoring equipment with the interface on the immersion suit, and then connected nearly a hundred pieces of different sizes One of the electrodes was pasted on Ke Lan's head in turn.

"Prepare for a connection test." The guy who arrived at the Zero Fleet with the immersion cabin and hung the work badge of the Ye's Consortium Research Institute said in a deep voice, "After the device is connected, you will feel a current flowing along your body. The brain and spinal cord flow to the limbs, this current will not make you feel painful, at most it is just a burst of numbness... But people who are connected for the first time will definitely have some discomfort. discomfort, you press the button and the connection is instantly disconnected.”

As he said that, he stuffed a wire-controlled remote control into Ke Lan's hand.

The light yellow LCL liquid had been gradually poured into the "head tank". Ke Lan did not speak, but stretched out his other hand and gave a thumbs up.

"The connection is started." The staff member stared at the control background of the terminal server and the screen of the vital signs monitoring equipment, and carefully turned the button.

A row of red indicator lights on the immersion chamber turned orange-yellow to represent "test" in turn. At this moment, Ke Lan clearly felt the "current" described by the other party.

He didn't feel uncomfortable, but a sense of comfort spontaneously emerged—like when he was urinating, as the urine in the bladder was emptied, he suddenly felt a jerk, and all the muscles in his body trembled that feeling.

From a certain point of view, the principles of both are the same, the human cerebral cortex is stimulated, but the former is stimulated by external discharge electrodes, while the latter is the human's own sympathetic nerve.

"Heartbeat and pulse increased briefly, but they have returned to normal values, which is normal...Mr. Ke Lan, do you feel any discomfort?"

Ke Lan raised a finger and shook it twice.

If his whole body was immersed in the medical cabin filled with LCL liquid, Ke Lan could speak normally when his lungs and trachea were filled with LCL liquid.But the LCL in the immersion cabin is only used to protect the user's brain, so his breathing can only be maintained by the trachea inserted in the nose. Similarly, his mouth has also been "plugged" from the immersion suit. blocked.

It's a bit vulgar to say, and I don't know who the designer of this immersion suit is. The shape and structure of the plug used to "seal" are actually similar to a special toy called "Kouwangqiu". resemblance.

If the game is broadcast live at that time, those players will have such a toy in their mouths... That picture, just thinking about it, is enough to make people die.

Ke Lan doesn't know if the event organizer will change the design of this "plug" at that time, anyway, he has already made up his mind, and when the official game comes, he will bring a breathing mask in, anyway, the size of the mask is just right. The closing edges of the immersion suit are almost the same, and there will be no interference with each other.

If you really want him to go on TV with a "mouth begging", then he would rather choose to abstain directly...

"The test is complete, and everything is normal." After staring at the dense data on the screen for a long time, the staff finally let out a sigh of relief, "Mr. Ke Lan, now you can officially start the immersive mode."

Ke Lan nodded slightly.

"After five seconds, connect the consciousness to the data network, and the countdown is five...four..."

Ke Lan silently closed his eyes.

"three two……"

He took a deep breath, and the inner wall of the plastic trachea was instantly covered with a thin layer of white mist.

"……one."

A little white light suddenly lit up in the originally black field of vision, and a large number of brilliant colors were blurred like overturned paint cans. Seeing this picture, Ke Lan subconsciously said something in his head. lines:

"Lincoln is dead!" (Note 1)

Those messy colors quickly converge, and the white light instantly covers the "virtual space" where Ke Lan's consciousness is located - this is a closed room with a length, width and height of ten meters. The ceiling, walls and floor They are all covered with one-meter-square white tiles, and an old solid wooden chair is quietly placed in the center of the room.

Although the painting style of this chair is completely different from the whole room full of sci-fi atmosphere, everything looks so real, even the unique grain of the wood on the chair and the wear marks left by the edges due to years of use. portrayed.

Ke Lan stretched out his hand to touch the back of the chair. The unique touch of solid wood, which combines rough and smooth two completely opposite touches, was perfectly fed back to his tactile nerves. He could even feel the body temperature on his palm. The process of slowly transferring to the interior of wood by contact.

He pinched it lightly with his nails, and a tiny dent appeared on the surface of the wood instantly, and the cracked paint fragments turned into powder and fell, revealing the original color of the light beige wood inside.

Among other things, the realism of this chair is already impeccable.

But for some reason, Ke Lan always feels that this virtual space always gives him a vague sense of familiarity.

He didn't feel like he came here for the first time... The last time he had a similar experience was in the cockpit of the "blasphemer" mecha.

Could it be that the fully immersive system developed by the research institute uses the technology of the Alpha civilization?
Ke Lan recalled that in the numerous ruins exploration records, nothing similar to the Blasphemer Mecha had ever been unearthed, and he didn't know where the technology mastered by those lunatics came from. It was developed by the research institute itself, and Ke Lan would never believe it.

Originally, even the most basic consciousness immersion system couldn't be done well, but now the finished product is perfect, isn't that ridiculous?It's like a child who hasn't even learned how to walk breaks the Olympic [-]-meter record when he runs for the first time-who will believe it?
With the idea of ​​giving it a try, Ke Lan called out the operation interface with a specific gesture according to the method in the manual, and opened the "Experience Item List".

The first item on the list is the "Battle of Mogadishu".

"Ha, I know this!"

A knowing smile appeared on Ke Lan’s face——The Battle of Mogadishu is a VR shooting game released 16 years ago. Its game process basically reproduces the old classic war movie "Black Hawk Down" The plots and scenes in "The Battle of Mogadishu are more realistic than those FPS games controlled by mouse and keyboard - in order to give players a better experience, the publisher of the game even released a matching 17 gamepads with realistic gun proportions and shapes.
