dawn effect

Chapter 3 Purple Flood Dragon
Tang Yuan and Tang Ning ran and jumped nimbly in the ruins of the collapsed factory area, avoiding the bricks, vehicles, machinery that were constantly being thrown behind them, as well as various obstacles in front of them.

The giant snake was faster than Tang Yuan and Tang Ning, and quickly approached the attack range. It suddenly raised its head to the height of the roofs of the factories on both sides. On the head that was shaking rapidly, the giant mouth opened: "Hiss——"

Two streams of venom shot out from the long fangs of the giant snake's upper jaw, and were thrown into a fan by the giant snake's head, before spraying down towards Tangning.

"Damn! Xiaozhi, you're lying! There's no such thing!"

"This is the result of deriving the direction of evolution. Dad said that we must make adequate plans and deduction to deal with future crises."

Tang Ning suddenly leaped into the water and slid under a transport vehicle. The giant snake's venom sprayed onto the transport vehicle, instantly ablating countless large holes in the metal compartment of the transport vehicle.

Tangning had already slid out from under the front of the transport vehicle, rolled over and got up, and continued to run.

Running to the factory area, there is an open field in front of it. The giant snake has no obstacles to stop it. The situation of one person and one dog is even worse.

A gray-white deep ditch appeared in the distance, which was the factory's automatic feeding trough.

Tangning, who was running wildly in the wind, saw the situation and couldn't help but have an idea: "Tangyuan, this way!"

Tangyuan barked in response tens of meters away, turned and ran towards this side.

One person and one dog finally met when they were approaching the feeding chute. Tangning slid the shovel, lay down, and slid down from the feeding cart at the chute.

But Tangyuan kicked its hind legs, jumped high, over the top of the feeding cart, landed on the side of the feeding chute, and continued to run wildly forward.

"Dangdang!"

The feed truck weighing several tons was slammed into the air by the giant snake, rolled in the air and fell sideways forward, smashing a big hole in the mud.

The glutinous rice balls rushed forward along the feeding chute, barking and changing course, jumping to the left of the feeding trough for a while, and jumping to the right of the feeding chute for a while, narrowly avoiding two consecutive probe attacks by the giant snake.

The giant snake's huge body swept across the feeding trough, pushing a large amount of soil and gravel into the trough.

Tangning lay on her back in the feeding chute, and was instantly buried in the mud.

Just when the giant snake's body covered the top of the feeding trough again, a long knife popped out of the soil and plunged into the tough belly of the giant snake!
"Bam—"

A clay figurine covered in snake blood and soil was dragged out of the mud that buried him by the huge kinetic energy of the giant snake, and slid forward along the feeding chute.

Tangning firmly clamped the end of the knife handle under her left armpit. With her right hand, she grabbed the remnant handle above her left armpit, and firmly supported the back of the knife with her left hand, "Go to hell—"

Countless stones splashed into the groove with the swing of the giant snake, hitting Tang Ning until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

The blood sprayed above the bone knife turned him into a blood man, and also turned the feeding ditch behind the big snake into a blood trough.

Although he was bruised all over by the flying stones, and the blade was moved to the left and to the right by the giant snake, Tangning still firmly fixed the long knife with his hands and left armpit, letting the snake drag him along. , strike in the feed trough, and move forward.

The wound on the giant snake's abdomen grew longer and longer. After dragging Tangning for hundreds of meters, it finally stopped.

"Bam—"

The huge head like a giant snake car smashed heavily on the soil.

Tang Yuan also stopped in her tracks, turned around and ran over, barking wildly at Tangning who was under the snake's back belly.

"Ding! Congratulations Dad, you successfully killed the Zijiao!"

"Xiaozhi—" Tangning turned over with difficulty in the feeding trough, leaning on her right arm and left leg, and painfully crawled out from the feeding ditch that was almost filled with snake blood under the big snake's tail.

In RealSense games, the player's pain perception can be adjusted. In order to train herself, Tangning always set it to [-]%.

So right now Tangning's whole body was in real pain.

"The speed, agility, and agility of this battle have all created new peaks. The system score is 130 points [-], which is Dad's best score! Congratulations Dad, you made it!" Xiaozhi didn't know what pain was, and continued They raved about Tangning's record this time.

"Xiaozhi..." Tangning knelt in the ditch, feeling like she was about to faint from the pain, "Hurry up and send your father to the medical cabin... Otherwise, you won't have a father in a while..."

Although the game system judged that Tangning's left upper arm was broken, his right hip was broken, his fourth and fifth ribs were broken, and his spine and multiple internal organs were severely damaged, the life-and-death battle just now took place on the top floor of Huarong Commercial Building. Looking at her in the luxurious private room, Tangning was just doing all kinds of strenuous exercise in the sensory cabin, and there was no scar on her whole body.

The deep perception system on the full-sense helmet can allow players to experience real feelings like weightlessness and pain in the virtual world.

Although the ecological cabin slows down the physical damage to the human body, due to the physiological protection mechanism of the human nervous system, this kind of experience is sometimes quite dangerous.

However, Tang Ning discovered in practice that this kind of real-sensing game that exceeds the limit plays a very important role in stimulating one's own potential.

In the world after awakening, there are mutant beasts, mutant plants, and undead people.Tang Ning believed that they all had another operating system that was different from the normal functions of animals and plants.

There must be a reason for the catastrophe.

Undead people have not eaten or drank for more than ten years, but they can still maintain muscle function and a complete nervous system, and even actively mutate. It cannot but be said to be a miracle that subverts traditional science.

The so-called "Medical Cabin" in the virtual system is actually a program modified by Tang Ning. Its prototype comes from an experience system called "Home".

In that system, Panorama tried to give a [-]% experience that exceeded the real sense. Of course, the system environment can only be flowers, food, fragrance, deliciousness, and various comfortable pleasure experiences, which can bring people an unusual experience. pleasure.

Because this program is easy to make people addicted, it was quickly banned by Panorama Company.

Tangning woke up after the catastrophe. By chance, she experienced this program, and found that when the experience rate was above 120%, she could detect some subtle things in her body that she hadn't noticed before.

Potential is inseparable from super sense.

These things can be continuously strengthened and strengthened with exercise, and his own body functions will also become stronger and stronger.

For this reason, Tangning and Xiao Zhi deliberately upgraded the original game hall of the virtual city, collected the data models of the mutant beasts they had fought against, and "resurrected" them in the game to become his training partner.

In the trials of life and death in the virtual world, Tangning was able to achieve breakthroughs that ordinary people could not achieve.

After the virtual world was completely controlled by Xiaozhi, Tangning gave it instructions, that is, as long as it can't train itself to death, it will train itself to death.

This process is undoubtedly very painful, but the progress is also very fast.

Gradually, even without the bonus of virtual experience, Tangning could vaguely feel that kind of magical thing in the real world, the subtle flow inside and outside the body.

Because the ecological cabin did not detect any abnormalities during his physical examination, Tangning was completely at a loss as to the changes in his body, let alone whether the strengthening method he was currently using belonged to The same type of energy conversion and utilization system as mutant beasts and undead people.

He only knows that if he wants to survive, he must become stronger, and currently he has no other choice but this way.

After switching from the virtual world, Tangning lay in the ecological cabin. The exhaustion and pain all over her body had completely disappeared, and she was even filled with a sense of comfort and relaxation.

This is the function of the "medical cabin" in the virtual world. In the state of super-body perception, the body recovers from the extreme weakness after painful experience again and again. In fact, it is the process of Tangning's potential being stimulated and grown again and again. .

Today's battle was worth it. This kind of situation where I can clearly feel that I have become a little stronger has not happened for a long time.

On the fire floor on the 32nd floor, the Heping III server on the back of the glutinous rice balls is quietly recharging under the working of the building's wireless power transmission system.

Tangning clicked on the communication, and a phantom of Tangning was projected on the server, standing a few meters in front of Tangyuan: "Tangyuan, there is nothing happening, right?"

Tangyuan was lying on the concrete floor, with her big head between her two front paws, she only raised her eyelids, looked at the phantom in front, and then lowered her eyelids.

"Good night glutinous rice balls." Tangning smiled slightly, "I still have to continue working, see you at dawn."

……

……

Because of the blocking of the Skynet intercity network, Tangning had to carry a large amount of crystal memory with her.

Every time he arrives in a new city, he can only rebuild his most important electronic partner, the artificial intelligence Xiaozhi, after taking over the city-level Skynet computing resources of that place.

Tang Ning's father was an archaeologist, and Tang Ning can be regarded as inheriting his father's career, but his direction of interest lies in ancient Internet resources.

Xiaozhi was just a very primitive program at first, but his designer is famous.

Established the "Gancang-Skynet" system, Liu Xiangdong, a cross-age figure known as the "Father of the Great Contemporaneity".

The name of this program is very engineering, called "Artificial Intelligence Companion". When Liu Xiangdong designed this program, he was just a middle school student who was just showing his talent.

But this small program already contains the essence of ideas that later changed human society—artificial intelligence with self-learning and associative abilities.

When Tang Ning discovered this small program in the sea of ​​ancient information, she was also a middle school student. Apart from showing off to her parents, she didn't realize the usefulness of this program.

So he raised it as an "electronic pet" that was popular in ancient times for a while, and at the same time gave him the agency right of Skynet virtual city user with a very low level of authority, and bound it with the home artificial intelligence management software to provide for his parents. Provide help within your ability.

But after waking up from a deep sleep, Tangning discovered that Xiaozhi had become very powerful through self-learning.

Because Liu Xiangdong's original purpose of designing this software was to explore the possibility of artificial intelligence from "anthropomorphic" to "adult" through self-learning.

Therefore, it was inevitable for Xiaozhi to become more... humane.
