Alien paradise

When his five senses were restored again, Zhang Zhiyuan found himself in a gray hall. This hall has a bit of a Greek temple style. You can see thick arched stone pillars around it, but the carvings on the beams of the hall are Chinese-style five spines and six beasts. What's even more incongruous is that the tables, chairs, cabinets and other furnishings placed in the main hall are all modern, giving the overall impression of a mixed bag.

But he knew that he was not in reality at the moment.

Because these objects all appear off-white, no detail can be seen on the surface. If I have to describe it, everything in front of me seems to be an unfinished model. There is only a model, but no texture has been given.

He took two steps forward and quickly noticed the figure in front of the hall.

To be more precise, it was a black shadow in the shape of a human.

"You are the founder of the paradise," Zhang Zhiyuan said slowly, "and also the host."

This also confirmed one of his previous guesses: VR glasses are just a cover. As long as the other party can "visually" see him through the Internet, he can be summoned to the paradise.

The ongoing game on Heart of the Ocean is the most special round because it is not teleported over the Internet. The founder of the paradise just faced each other and sent the four people into the paradise.

However, the surveillance on the ship and the dock has been rewritten, and no one will really know what the host looks like under the mask.

The shadow was half lying on the huge soft cave, and seemed to be looking at him with squinting eyes, "You are just an ordinary Interpol police officer, why do you think you can get what you want over there?"

"The people above are not paying attention to me, but to the paradise itself." Zhang Zhiyuan felt that he was in a state of clarity that he had never experienced before, "because that world means brand-new resources, discoveries that are completely different from the earth, and infinite possibilities. No Anyone can turn a blind eye to the new world."

"That requires material exchange between the two worlds."

Zhang Zhiyuan held his breath and said, "Actually, exchange is feasible, right?"

"..." The other party just looked at him and did not answer.

He continued, "That newbie... Elodie, she's an example of exchange."

Shadow sat up straight for the first time - he leaned forward slightly, put one hand on his knees, and looked down at him, "What should I say?"

"The first time I had doubts was when I saw her. Her clothes were very much a product of modern times, not hand-woven products of that era. Of course, you can make modern clothes out of thin air. If you prepare them specially for her, you will still be able to make them. No problem." Zhang Zhiyuan paused, "So when we were in the church, I found an opportunity to cut off a small corner of her clothes."

"According to the rules I have observed so far, the creations of the paradise are usually a whole. If this whole is destroyed, the maintenance time of the separated parts will be greatly shortened. For example, during the theater shootout, I noticed Anthony's stab-proof suit It was penetrated and a few pieces fell into the aisle...but when we pulled back the second time, those pieces were gone."

"I don't know what the internal factors are at play here, but judging from the facts, the things created in the paradise are not real objects, and they cannot exist forever, and the fragmented parts scattered in advance will disappear faster. The problem is Here -" Zhang Zhiyuan also looked directly at the other party, trying to see the changes in the shadow, "Elodie's clothes have remained the same even after two days. Until I game over, it was still in my pocket. Here, this shows that her clothes are the real thing."

Snap, snap, snap.

Shadow caressed his palm gently.

"I thought you were quite sharp from the first time I came into contact with you. I didn't expect you to be so attentive. At that time, you noticed the shattering of the stab-proof suit by just a few dim oil lamps in the corridor. Scraps? Amazing!"

"When I was in the military academy, the instructors often praised me for my sharp eyesight and quick hands." Zhang Zhiyuan laughed at himself, "But compared with the miracles created by the paradise, it is nothing worth mentioning."

"Although what you said makes sense, you seem to have made a mistake about one thing - that is, as the park's activities expand, more and more people will notice the park. I am not short of manpower."

"On a scale of a few months, half a year or even a few years, there is no problem, but it cannot solve the current needs of the park." Zhang Zhiyuan argued rationally, "I know you are not afraid of our investigation, and even from some kind of To a certain extent, the park needs a certain amount of attention! Then why not go a step further and directly use me to show that the park does exist? Even if you wait for the news to slowly ferment as you said, among the participants who will flock to it after half a year, How can we ensure that there are no people with ulterior motives? Criminals like Joe James are the first, but they will never be the last. Just screening them will probably cost the park a lot of energy!"

"But if our senior management pays attention to it, the situation will be completely different. Whatever talents you need, you will be able to call on them. If you need as many as you need, you can arrange as many as you need!"

"Then what follows is in-depth cooperation and mutual binding?" Black Shadow lay back softly again, "I said, you participate in the game, and the park provides rewards. This is the entire relationship between the two parties."

"I have absolutely no intention of destroying this relationship!" Zhang Zhiyuan said quickly, "The only difference between the two is that the people participating in the game are more professional, more pure, and more able to achieve your established wishes! And this matter is The initiative is yours. If you think something is wrong, just end the game. Why not give it a try?"

"Why do you care so much about whether the mission can be completed smoothly?" Black Shadow asked curiously, "The only benefit of using more professional talents is this, and most of the time it has nothing to do with you."

"Because I want to see the masterminds of more vicious cases destroyed, so that the victims and their families can be reunited one day; I also want to see the Yeni Church turned into a real hospital, so that the nuns are no longer tied to the company Hands and feet. The park has such abilities, but in the end, it is the players of the park who will achieve it. The more reliable this group of people is, the more ideal the final result will be."

Zhang Zhiyuan answered calmly.

After waiting for a long time, the shadow spoke again, "Your idea is indeed interesting. The number of people admitted to the park is limited, and the weight of material exchange is very small, so next time I will give you two places at most."

"As long as you have it!" Zhang Zhiyuan didn't expect to achieve his goal in one breath, "But if we only rely on the strength of the Interpol department, it will be difficult to find the most suitable candidate at once..."

"Since I agreed to give it a try, it certainly won't end in an anticlimax." The shadow stretched out his hand and saw a small dark red stone flying towards Zhang Zhiyuan.

The latter caught it and noticed that the stone was dry, rough, and had a hint of warmth.

Just as Zhang Zhiyuan was about to ask a question, the surrounding environment became distorted again, as if everything was pulling away from him.

No matter how he opened his mouth, not even a sound could be squeezed out of his throat. Then he suddenly fell to the ground, and the strong feeling of weightlessness made his hair stand on end!

Then he woke up from his dream!

Everything in the hidden room reappeared before my eyes, everything seemed like a dream.

Zhang Zhiyuan slowly opened his hand, but there was nothing in his hand.
