I Am the Light of Science and Technology

Yi Chen didn't know why he impulsively shouted this sentence.

There were too many doubts in his heart. The NPC suddenly participated in the ranking, had a name, and behaved so psychedelic... All these things made him feel a bad premonition from the bottom of his heart.

So he asked.

He thought, as an NPC with a name participating in the ranking, or an NPC who has been collecting points all the time, it is impossible for her to know nothing.

She probably wouldn't shoot him because of one of his problems, would she?

One sentence asks a lot of questions.

Bai Zhi suddenly stopped, tilted her head slightly, and a stream of light flashed away at the corner of her gold-rimmed glasses.

Her voice was low and hoarse, with an unintelligible meaning—

"I won't play against you, but I will help you have a good time."

The low smile, in such a quiet environment, carried a chill that sent chills down the spine.

For some reason, Yi Chen suddenly felt horrified.

The chill that rises from the soles of the feet has been running along the body, rushing into the chest cavity, strangling the heart, as if unable to breathe, and the roots of the cold hair stand upright.

The door of the wooden house was closed, and Angelica's back disappeared.

For a long, long time, Yi Chen could never forget the fear at this moment.

After the barrage was extremely quiet, a few words gradually floated out—

"What does this NPC mean?"

"It's said that it's Bei Baizhi, and they have a name."

"What's to help them have fun?"

"I don't understand... This NPC is getting more and more psychedelic, and it can even be on the leaderboard."

"I think you are all demons. She was able to make it to the rankings because of the arrangement of the Hunting World Consciousness Department. To be honest, I think their arrangement is sick."

"Agree, the head of the hunting department has a bag, and even let NPC participate together. NPC is the product of their consciousness department, isn't it a coercion?"

…

Because of the explanation of the consciousness department, many audiences are now scolding them.

But at this moment, even if the consciousness department knows, there is nothing they can do.

They're still in meetings to hunt down all that's wrong with the world and how to fix it.

- Of course, the core is still Bei Baizhi.

This NPC has always been abnormal since entering the game.

At first, the abnormality was still acceptable, but later, her abnormality became more and more obvious, and it even reached the level of serious collapse!

"...What the **** is going on with this NPC's behavior? Don't you have an explanation?!" The person in charge had a dark face, staring at Zhou Ming with a pair of eyes.

Zhou Ming was pale and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "I found out that she was a little abnormal before, but the movement is not big, and the NPC will also have some independent consciousness that we have given us, so we didn't pay much attention to this little bug at the time, just changed it in detail. I fixed her plot line, solved all bugs, and made her offline as soon as possible."

In fact, what he did was reasonable.

But the person in charge still questioned him with a dark face: "Aren't those task-oriented NPCs who have been given independent consciousness? She is a small boss, she just needs to be killed mechanically and drop the treasure map! So I asked You, how could she be endowed with a sense of independence?! Haven't you thought about it before?!"

Zhou Ming's face turned even whiter, and he kept wiping away the large beads of sweat that fell down.

"Zhou Ming, you have caused such a serious impact on the consciousness department, let me tell you, if this matter can be solved, then you just need to get out of the way! If this matter can't be solved, or it has caused some bad influence, I tell you, we will definitely hold you accountable!" The person in charge had a cold face and a sharp voice.

Zhou Ming fell to the ground with a bang.

The person in charge stood up: "All of you are in your own place, and try to find a way to see if the problem can be solved. Where is the management of the hunting world, you must find it out for me!"

He took a deep breath, and probably knew that these people couldn't count on them: "I will report to the empire and dispatch all the experts with the most powerful consciousness related to it to find a way to take over the hunting world again, this is no longer your department. something happened."

After he finished speaking, he strode away with a black face.

Although they explained it to the audience and the contestants, the other party obviously believed the explanation.

But only they themselves know how serious this is, and so far, they still have no way to solve this problem!

Everyone in the conference room turned pale.

It has already been reported to the empire...

This matter has become a big deal, and none of them have good fruit to eat!

Zhou Ming trembled even more. He knew that losing his job was the best outcome for him.

I just hope that there will be no more problems, I just hope that they can take over the hunting world as soon as possible, and let everything end smoothly without any more accidents.

When he was in a rut, Zhao Ping'an in the corner lowered his voice: "Boss Zhou, I just discovered a problem, but... I dare not say it."

Zhou Ming looked at him suddenly: "What's the problem?"

Zhao Ping'an licked his chapped lips, his voice trembling: "The number of contestants in the Hunting World and the number of players who have left now add up to one less than the contestants who entered the Hunting World..."

Zhou Ming's pupils shrank, staring into his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Hunt the world.

As soon as the new list came out, Bai Zhi's high score still made many people tempted.

Especially those who have never known Bei Baizhi in the past, they were all about to move for a while.

99999 points!

Not to mention whether she will drop equipment, just say she has this point, I don't know how much equipment can be bought!

Of course, it was also because of her points. The higher the points, the stronger the combat effectiveness of NPCs. Such unattainable points also made them not dare to act rashly.

So, all kinds of planning began.

Since one team may not work, how many?

Otherwise, if Bei Baizhi was killed by others, wouldn't so many points be cheaper for others?

"Boss, Red Sun invited us to fight the Boss together?" A person from Yi Chen's team looked at Yi Chen suspiciously.

Yi Chen nodded: "Yes, he said that the boss is very strong, so they can't be a team. They are going to join us and fight together. After winning, the benefits will be divided equally."

"What are you kidding? They have such a strong team, and the boss can't win? Stop teasing!"

"Yeah, don't count on us, take advantage of our weakness and kill us all?"

"They must think that we have high points, so they want to kill us. In fact, we have no points!"

"Tsk tsk, Hong Ri is not at all uneasy and kind, it must be plotting against us."

…

Yi Chen shook his head: "No, I know they are sincere, and there are indeed many benefits to defeating that boss, even if we split evenly, we can earn a lot of money."

"Ah? Is there such a good thing? Their fighting power is stronger than us, and they must pay more than us. Boss, do you want to agree?"

Yi Chen: "I have already refused."

Without waiting for the others to speak, he said lightly: "The boss they are going to fight is Bei Baizhi."

Everyone: "???"

The corner of Yi Chen's mouth evoked a sneer: "I said that we have plans recently, so instead of fighting the boss, I suggest that they join the Scorpion Gang to go together."

Alien Beast: "Pfft - boss, you are really bad!"

The magician smiled and nodded: "Yes, if they really join forces, we will directly lose two opponents."

"Hahaha, I hope they go! Let that Bei Baizhi clean them up!"

"Do these people dare to challenge the devil now? Fortunately, we didn't release the news that we lost to her..."

Yi Chen looked at their excited faces and sighed: "Even if they lose and leave the hunting world, we may not be able to defeat Bei Baizhi in the future."

"I don't think it is possible. She must have weaknesses. Otherwise, the Consciousness Department will really hang up there, and the final winner will be her, and this hunting world will become a complete joke!" Someone couldn't help but say.

Yi Chen: "It's also possible..."

It's just that he always has an ominous premonition in his heart that he can't suppress.

He stood up and said: "Forget it, don't think about it, let's kill Zhuo Yi, if he can be resurrected once, I don't believe he can be resurrected a second time. If we say let him go offline, we will never let him. Better off!"

They couldn't vent all their dissatisfaction with Bei Baizhi, so they could only go to Zhuo Yi who harmed them in the first place.

"Have you found it?" Zhou Ming asked in a trembling voice.

Zhao Ping'an nodded, his lips also trembling, unable to open his mouth.

Beside him, Chen Gang said in a hoarse voice: "I found... The people who entered the hunting world at the beginning are indeed one less than the people who are still hunting and leaving the hunting world."

"What's your name?" Zhou Ming seemed to have said this, but he didn't seem to say it.

Zhao Ping'an replied, as if these three words were burning his mouth: "Bei Baizhi..."

"boom!"

Zhou Ming rolled to the ground, and Zhao Ping'an and Chen Gang went to help him.

His voice trembled: "How did the player become an NPC? How could this be?!"

Chen Gang reported: "Boss... We still have to tell the person in charge. If it wasn't for him to help us, we would definitely not be able to bear the responsibility for the exposure of this matter. Moreover, maybe they know... There will be a solution."

Zhou Ming nodded blankly, he knew that he could not get the best result.

- He must be held accountable.

After half an hour.

"What?! That's a contestant?! A contestant was actually thrown on an NPC?!" The head of the person in charge was twitching with blue veins on his forehead.

"Whoa-" He pushed everything on the table to the ground.

He was like an angry bull, staring at Zhou Ming with wide eyes—

"Why didn't you say it earlier?! Why didn't you find out earlier?! Zhou Ming, you are finished, you are causing me to end up with you!"

If this matter is exposed, the entire consciousness department will be scolded to death, they will lose the trust of everyone in the entire empire, and the leaders of the empire will also slap them to the end in order to quell the anger of the whole people.

Don't think it's a small thing.

A long time ago, when the Consciousness Department was just established, someone worried about the harm of the consciousness world to the player's consciousness. You know, if the consciousness is really hurt, then this person may die.

So they gave various guarantees at the beginning, among them the absolute division of players and NPCs.

- Players can never be NPCs!

When the NPC is cleared, it is to wipe out the consciousness, which is equivalent to completely killing the NPC.

But the players are different. The death of the player in the conscious world is not really death. This is the essential difference.

It is equivalent to the player entering the world of consciousness, with a one-to-one virtual consciousness. Death means that the virtual consciousness disappears, and the original consciousness is still there, and can return to the real world.

And the erasure of NPC is to make this consciousness completely disappear!

Just imagine if you put a player on an NPC, or a small refreshed boss that will be killed constantly. It's not working every day. Not many players will believe an NPC who calls out that he is a player.

If no one finds out, when the world is cleared, this consciousness will be cleared along with the NPC.

Count on the awareness department to find bugs and quickly correct them?

They just said - NPCs will also be involved in rankings!

It means that before today, they did not find that they put wrong!

If Zhou Ming's news was told earlier, before they explained it, it was not hopeless, but they had already explained it to everyone!

It's too late!

Zhou Ming was stared at by him and almost fainted again.

But the more so, Zhou Ming became more and more sober, and he said in a hoarse voice—

"We have found the problem, if she is a player, then many problems can be explained, the hunting world will get out of control, maybe it has something to do with her bug. And she must know that she is a player, but all the videos found, She never called for help!"

The person in charge looked at him.

Zhou Ming licked his chapped lips and took a deep breath: "A lot of the crux is on her, let's try to contact her..."

They can give some orders to the NPC, and these are invisible to the audience.

— That is, they can contact her privately.

They don't have the right to change the hunting world, but they can still do it by sending private messages without changing the rules of the hunting world.

So, Zhou Ming soon led someone to write a letter and sent it to Bei Baizhi, the "NPC" in the hunting world.

The letter says a lot, but it starts with an apology.

It is said that because of their problems, she accidentally put her on the NPC, how much compensation they give her, or she can ask for any request, as long as they can meet it. They believe that, rather than staying in the hunting world forever, Bei Baizhi should still want to come back and go to college, right? They want to cooperate with Bei Baizhi, they are also willing to apologize to her and so on.

They have already investigated Bei Baizhi's life. This letter of apology, both favors and prestige, is tailored according to her situation. If she doesn't want to stay in the conscious world forever, she should agree to them.

And as long as she promises them, she can have a splendid future and make up for all the damage caused to her.

— It’s hard not to agree to cooperate, isn’t it?

After the letter was sent, everyone was very anxious, waiting for Bei Baizhi's response.

If she agrees to cooperate, not only can she hide the subconscious department's problem of turning people into NPCs, but she can also help their technicians from the inside and take over control of the hunting world again.

They don't know where the control has gone, but in any case, the top priority is to get the control, get Bei Baizhi out first, and solve some hidden dangers.

The person in charge stood behind the technician: "She should agree, you should think of a way first, how to let her cooperate with you to take over control from the inside. We can't command any NPCs, and we can't change any rules and procedures, but She can act, as long as she cooperates—"

"Boss! We have received her consciousness!" Someone said loudly, interrupting the chief in charge.

Zhou Ming couldn't wait to ask: "What did she say?!"

"Hey, it turned out to be a letter? How could she also send a letter?" A technician wondered while processing it.

Zhou Ming: "Ignore this for now and see if she is willing to cooperate!"

They soon began to look at the consciousness she passed on.

Said to be a letter, but in fact, it is a three-second video-

In the video, Bei Baizhi wearing gold-rimmed glasses is looking at them, with a meaningful smile on the corner of her mouth, and those dark eyes seem to be looking at them.

She raised her hand slowly, her palm facing down, her lips raised, her eyes slightly narrowed, and her palm slid across her neck.

The portrait disappeared, and the screen was blood red.

- That color, like dripping blood.
