Law Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 842 Let the world feel the pain

Song Lan stopped the meaningless discussion on the topic of "Little Heizi" because he suddenly remembered the question RT6 asked Lu Xiang a few minutes ago:

How can you be sure that the conversations that are going on right now are actually happening?
While talking about this topic, she kept filling in many "settings" about "Sea of ​​Soul".

For example, this prison for imprisoning human consciousness exists in the deepest part of the data world, and only human consciousness can skip the process of deep diving and be directly entered into it.

As an artificial intelligence, RT6 cannot actively enter the "Sea of ​​Souls" in a short period of time, so it can only stay in the real world and play an auxiliary role.

Another example is that they may encounter anything in the "Sea of ​​Soul".

There they might encounter the reason why he was called "the devil" and "the man-eating monster" by the shadows, and what he saw was an extension of their subconscious mind.

In addition to dangerous events, they may of course just walk into another "real world".

Then the problem is coming.

If this conversation did not actually take place now, but a few hours or even a few days ago, their consciousness has already entered the "Sea of ​​Soul" in some way, RT6 in the real world And how to help them expel the illusion?
Song Lan felt that RT6 might have already made an attempt.

The illusion created by "Sea of ​​Soul" is highly similar to the dream. When the "dreamer" notices something that is obviously irrational, cracks will appear in the dream.

And just now, RT6 suddenly revealed a detail that she shouldn't know anyway.

Only when everything he is experiencing at this moment is a picture refracted by his subconscious mind, can RT6 know the details of the conversation between him and δ when they first met. Song Lan guessed that this unreasonable detail is what RT6 in the real world means to them. tips.

As for the way to verify whether they are in the illusion world is very simple.

Death represents the end of consciousness, enough to upset the balance of a visionary or dream world.

When Song Lan noticed this unreasonable detail, some knowledge that came from nowhere flooded into his mind.

This knowledge seems to have been told to them by RT6, but in the conversation just now, RT6 did not explicitly mention any means to break the illusion.

Song Lan guessed that maybe this was the content of their last conversation.

After that, in order to "pick up" the "Sea of ​​Soul" before the Gene Lord, he began to explore this consciousness container.

But at the same time, this is also a very risky means of verification.

Because the researcher who once put forward this theory died in the method he created.

The researcher is obsessed with exploring the world of dreams and illusions, until one day he regards the real world as an illusion, and tries to wake up from it by "death".

During the course of the last study, he never woke up again.

When his assistant found him, all that was left on the table was a research notebook.

Research notes were soaked in blood, next to a pistol and the remaining shell casings from the shot.

People can only know what kind of journey the researcher has experienced from the research records left by the researcher.

This information comes out of thin air.

Song Lan didn't remember that RT6 said this to him, but that unknown researcher appeared in his mind, and he guessed that RT6 should have strongly persuaded him not to take such high-risk actions.

"Death" also has another drawback.

The illusions created by "Sea of ​​Soul" are far more complicated than dreams. If his willpower is not strong enough, or his observation is not sharp enough, then new illusions will soon fill in the gaps caused by "death" , causing them to quickly fall into a new hallucination again.

Facts have proved that "Sea of ​​Soul" is much more cunning than they imagined.

It didn't set up any obstacles, it just replayed what happened in the past before his eyes. Even Song Lan couldn't detect the abnormality at the first time.

"That's what the two came in together for."

Lu Xiang said suddenly, she understood Song Lan's thoughts, and took out a blade from the inside pocket of her clothes.

It is difficult for a person to observe the whole process of his "death", but if the perpetrator becomes someone else, the possibility of breaking the illusion is much higher.

She didn't know why there was a blade in the inner pocket of her clothes, as if when they had a thought, the blade was born.

Now she is the same as Song Lan, with some "knowledge" coming from nowhere in her mind.

Song Lan suddenly felt the malice of the phantom world.

Everything it presented was so real that even if it was only part of the plan, he seemed to have to go through the whole process of Lu Xiang's death.

"You wait a moment."

Song Lan called Lu Xiang to stop.

Lu Xiang knew the reason why the other party stopped him, and smiled slightly, "I believe in your judgment, all this is a false illusion."

"No, I suddenly thought of a new idea."

RT6 only mentioned the possibility of using death to break the illusion, but she seemed not sure that this method would be successful in the world of "Sea of ​​Souls".

No one could have predicted what death would bring to consciousness.

Maybe after that, there will be more content in Lu Xiang's thinking folder, or some important files will be lost. These are the inevitable risks to be taken when exploring the "Sea of ​​Soul".

"Death is just the perspective we use to look at the world, but it doesn't have to be us who die."

"What do you want to say?"

Lu Xiang was a little confused.

"We assume that this is an illusion space constructed of illusions, so that means that no matter what happens here, any damage will not be reflected in the real world?"

While speaking, Lu Xiang saw that the blade in his hand was destroyed and deconstructed by psionic energy, and turned into floating dust.

At the same time, she felt a strong wind blowing against her face.

She could sense that an unprecedented storm was coming.

The roar came from above their heads.

Khloe Films' biological lab was underground, and the storm was strong enough to blow off the buildings above them, letting in light from outside.

But at this moment, above their heads is not the sun, but dark clouds, and the sky torn apart by the storm.

Lu Xiang understood Song Lan's thoughts.

A psychic storm.

If he had used his abilities in the real Fourth District, then he would have become the coalition government's number one terrorist that night, and in addition to destroying the city, he would also bring countless deaths.

Now, however, there were no pedestrians above them, and the part destroyed by the psionic storm revealed its original appearance.

A world dotted with pale blue shimmers.

When the illusion was dispelled, even the ground under their feet disappeared, leaving only footholds made of dark cubes. They could hardly be called roads, and they looked more like they were randomly piled up on the ground building blocks.

Within a minute, they left the "fourth area" and entered a deeper data space.

Lu Xiang suddenly felt a little dazed.

She thought of RT6's evaluation of Song Lan.

Destroying a city seemed easy for Song Lan, as if it had been rehearsed many times.

"The experiment was a success."

Song Lan stepped on one of the black "building blocks". He bent down and touched the material under his feet. There were slight ripples on the surface of the "building block", and then it jumped suddenly as if it had been endowed with consciousness. He got up and bumped into Song Lan's arm, and then flew into the distance with a "whoosh".

Under the call of the "building blocks", the ground under his feet followed suit. They began to migrate, causing the ground under Song Lan's feet to become shorter and shorter. Within half a minute, a deep pit was formed under his feet.

"Indeed, no matter what damage you cause to this world, it will not be reflected into the real world."

RT6 who was implicated and fell into the deep pit with him said, "But this will make the "Sea of ​​Soul" hate you, congratulations, now you should have become the object it hates the most."

Even RT6 didn't expect Song Lan to do this.

"Death" the entire illusory world, this is Song Lan's new answer based on the dead researcher's theory, but it also weakens the firewall of "Sea of ​​Souls" to a certain extent, allowing her to have a direct dialogue with the two .

"I created a temporary foothold for you. You'd better stay here now and don't go anywhere."

RT6 said.

With Song Lan as a "pesky" around, they would never be able to find the "Sea of ​​Souls" program.

"You scared it, it just wants to stay away from you now."

Although RT6 also felt that it sounded a little strange to say this, but now Song Lan is like opening a digger in "Minecraft". No matter where he goes, the ground under his feet will disappear all the way until the He kicked out "Sea of ​​Soul".

For "Sea of ​​Soul", Song Lan is still a stubborn mutant virus.

The kind that even the owner of the server couldn't kick him out.

And at this time, she needs to come forward to solve the problem.

The panic-stricken program urgently needs to be comforted by a big sister, so that its panicked heart can temporarily settle down.

Lu Xiang glanced at the empty ground under Song Lan's feet, there was only a floating barrier to drag him, preventing him from falling off the map, coupled with Song Lan's innocent face, it was really funny .

"Then you stay here first. I'll help her."

As the illusion dissipated, Lu Xiang gradually recalled the plan they made.

RT6 can't come here, all she can do is guide them to the program of "Sea of ​​Souls".

In her words, the one controlling the "Sea of ​​Soul" is an artificial intelligence.

What Song Lan did just now made him lose the possibility of peaceful negotiations, and all the pressure at this moment came to her.

Hearing this, Song Lan stretched out his hand reflexively, showing Erkang's gesture of holding back.

When the words came to his lips, he changed his mouth and said, "Old Lu, I will leave the rest to you."

Thanks to Song Lan's "intimidation", finding artificial intelligence has become much easier. Under the guidance of RT6, Lu Xiang was greeted in the depths of this data world by a palace made of faint light. The light was much weaker, becoming flickering in front of her.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Lu Xiang actually felt the subtle emotional flow from the cold data.

As RT6 said, "Sea of ​​Souls" is now in a state of panic.

For a long time, no conscious body has invaded here, and it has also caused a psionic storm in the world it built.

As a top student who graduated from Venus, Lu Xiang has learned a lot about negotiation, but he has never written any book on how to negotiate with artificial intelligence.

First of all, she had to find a way to say something nice to that dull bird.

But when she thought about it, her head ached.

In fact, Dumbbird doesn't have any bad intentions?
Did he cause a psychic storm with good intentions?
Not to mention convincing the frightened artificial intelligence, even convincing herself is somewhat difficult.

But no matter what, Lu Xiang walked into the shimmering palace. It seemed that he was affected by the psionic storm, and the structures in the palace were also damaged to varying degrees. Before Smart said hello, an unexpected figure appeared in her sight.

She saw Qi He.

At this moment, Qi He is no longer in a suit and leather shoes.

His hair was disheveled, and his upper body was bare-breasted, making him look extremely indecent.

If his image at this moment is inadvertently leaked, the Ragus Foundation may consider changing a representative.

Foundation representatives are, after all, their public face.

"Long time no see, Director Lu."

Qi He didn't take it seriously, and took the initiative to say hello to Lu Xiang.

"Can you put your clothes on first?"

Lu Xiang had to remind the other party.

Qi He's current image and his behavior in the palace alone always make people feel that he has some ulterior motives.

"Oh, you said that."

Qi He bent down calmly, and picked up a rag from the ground. This was his suit, or more precisely, the wreckage of his suit.

He has always been a man of appearance, but not long ago, an unexpected storm hit him, causing his shirt to die in the attack.

"Don't get me wrong, I don't have exhibitionism, I was wearing clothes."

"Snapped--"

Lu Xiang's eyes went dark, and she covered her eyes with her left hand. After such an interruption, she forgot most of the negotiation content she had thought up along the way.

She saw the program mentioned by RT6.

It was a dazzling blue ball of light, and the first time Lu Xiang entered the palace, she hid on Qi He's body, which was the main reason why she always had to notice Qi He's appearance at the moment.

She had to change her mouth and ask, "Why are you here?"

"I've wanted to come here for a long time."

Qi He said, "It's really not easy, and there are corresponding risks."

For example, temporarily abandoning the physical body, I don't even know if it is possible to return the consciousness.

But risks also often correspond to opportunities.

"Because, there are answers to many questions here."

　Thanks to ≮_Doomsday℡ for the reward of 1000 starting coins!
　　Little Theater its [-]th:

　　On a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, Friday, early in the morning.

　　The next day, Song Lan and Lu Xiang left the orphanage after the children reluctantly saw them off.

　　They could see that losing the title of Hide-and-Seek King seemed to have dealt a severe blow to Song Lan, and he seemed to be in low spirits.

　　The dean is very satisfied with the result.

　　He readily agreed to Lu Xiang's invitation, and gave them a handbag before they left, which contained the gift he carefully prepared.

　　"I didn't expect you and the dean to have such a good relationship."

　　Song Lan leaned sleepily on the soft cushion of the suspension car, he didn't expect that the dean would join hands to backstab him.

　　Lu Xiang is very good at using sugar-coated cannonballs to deal with interpersonal relationships.

　　In her words, this is the interpersonal skills learned from him.

　　"Actually, the dean has always cared about you very much, including your personal emotional problems."

　　In addition to the anecdote about Song Lan's hide-and-seek champion, the dean also talked about some other past events.

　　For example, the dean once asked Song Lan about her imagination about her future lover. Although Song Lan was vague on this issue every time, she was able to find out the truth through various signs.

　　This "truth" also gave Lu Xiang another level of awareness of Song Lan's abandonment of the title of Hide and Seek Champion.

　　"You lost on purpose, and definitely not just to make the kids happy."

　　Lu Xiang's eyes were as sharp as when she was working, "'High-end hunters often appear as prey', this is your real strategy."
