Life in the collapsed world from scratch

Bronya began to seriously consider whether to tell her mother that this place has been targeted by some inexplicable people, and it is better to move as soon as possible.

She shook her head, temporarily put these things behind her, and focused on the cardboard box in front of her.

It can be roughly guessed from the size. If there is no mistake, it should be the game cabin that appears in various film and television works and novels about games, right?

Although I really want to tear it down now, Bronya is still facing a very serious problem:

"How do I move in?"

……

Fortunately, it seems that such a situation has been considered, and a pulley was installed at the bottom of the game cabin, which allowed Bronya to push it into her bedroom. Even so, it took her a lot of effort until now They were all out of breath.

Although she was physically exhausted, after seeing the full body of the game cabin, she immediately felt that it was all worth it.

The main body of the game cabin is made of silver-white metal, and the light-colored energy veins are etched on it like a circuit board, faintly flowing with a faint brilliance. The interior cabin must be very comfortable to lie on, and the overall look does not look cheap It doesn't look like a perfunctory product at all.

Now, Bronya basically believed what was said on the webpage. After all, no one would spend so much effort and cost to tease her... The girl didn't think she was worthy of being treated like this.

Now let's see if the so-called virtual reality game is as powerful as the other party said.

After connecting the wires according to the instructions in the manual, Bronya lay down in the game cabin with a slightly excited mood, and lightly clicked the start button.

A virtual light screen popped up in front of her eyes, but the huge desktop was empty with only one icon.

Bronya turned her gaze to the only icon, which was a moth spreading its wings in the flames and burning to ashes.

"Moth Chasing Flame..."

The girl slowly read the name under the icon.

Chapter 140 Seven Things About My Honkai Game in the Honkai World

"Strange name." Bronya thought to herself, from the name, she couldn't tell what the content of this game would be... It wouldn't be a moth simulator, would it?

The girl who thought this way clicked on the icon, and with a sense of pulling from the depths of her consciousness, Bronya only felt that the world in front of her was darkening.

Dots of light appeared at the end of the line of sight, and quickly exploded and expanded, dispelling the darkness around in an instant.

The light dissipated, and Bronya found herself standing in a room with a very sci-fi feel.

"It turned out to be real!?" She opened her eyes wide, looking at the surrounding environment curiously.Everything she saw was too real, without any sense of disobedience. If she didn't know it in advance, she would never believe that it was simulated by illusion.

Her interest in the game immediately rose by 27 percentage points, just shy of reaching full capacity.

【Please enter your nickname】

Without thinking too much, Bronya entered her usual game nickname: Metal Gear Brown... Eh?Wrong type.

The movements of Bronya's hands paused, but unfortunately, she had already subconsciously pressed the OK button, and her nickname was locked and could no longer be changed... So sometimes it is a mistake to move too fast.

The girl searched around but couldn't find the option to recreate the character, so she had no choice but to give up this idea temporarily.

"Forget it, Brownie will be Brownie." She thought to herself: "It's just an internal test anyway, and it's fine to change it when the official server goes online〃〃."

Compared to this, she cared more about the game that was about to start, and she was full of anticipation for it.

"Hello, newborn baby." At this time, a blue-haired woman walked out of her hatch and smiled gently at her.

Bronya couldn't tell what kind of emotion was contained in this smile, but it seemed that there was... a little sadness hidden in it.

"I don't know if I should celebrate you... Anyway, welcome to this world."

After the voice fell, Bronya felt that she could control her body.She moved her body briefly, but felt that something was wrong.

She lowered her head, and was shocked to realize that she had turned into a little girl whose height was no more than fifty centimeters! ?

……

"Are you really sure you want to do this?"

In the closed office, Walter reconfirmed to Cheng Xi, with a little worry still on his face: "Let the world know and understand Honkai through games... Isn't this too radical?"

Moreover, it also violated Anti-Entropy's consistent behavior style, and it was inevitable that it would be opposed by conservatives in the organization.

"We can't hide it from the world for a lifetime, they will always know." Cheng Xi replied.

With the development of civilization, the power of Honkai will become stronger and stronger, and one day the damage caused by the Herrscher will be so great that it can no longer be easily concealed in a few words.

In other words, if Destiny and Anti-Entropy really have the ability to cover up the truth in Honkai until the last moment without being noticed by the world, then there is no need to worry about Honkai.

And through games, people can learn about Honkai without connecting it with the real world. After all, only people with brain problems will look for a sense of reality in the illusory world... Although that is indeed real.

When people understand the collapse, they can increase the chances of surviving the collapse.They will know what kind of enemy they should fight, what kind of enemy should run, what kind of enemy should lie down quietly and wait for death... Ahem, waiting for rescue.

At the same time, some videos about Honkai that were accidentally spread on the Internet can also be fooled by reasons such as game promotional videos, which facilitates the management and control of the fishing boat.

It can be said that doing so is a multi-purpose thing, and there is probably only one disadvantage——

". But it will accelerate the development of Houkai to a certain extent!" Walter expressed his inner worries.

Unlike the cutting-edge technological equipment used only inside Anti-Entropy in the past, in order to achieve what Cheng Xi said, the game cabin must be promoted to the whole world.Although it's just a game cabin, many of the technologies in it surpass the current society by an unknown number of years.

Once the technology inside is spread out, it will undoubtedly accelerate the development of social civilization, which is the main reason why Walter has doubts about it.

"It doesn't matter." Cheng Xi said: "As long as the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages, we have a reason to do so, not to mention (Demo Zhao) isn't the space-time stability anchor already under development? I believe the results will be available soon. .”

Cheng Xi's plan is to use the "Star Chain" as a platform to build a space-time network covering the world with thousands of space-time stability anchors. Although it won't play a big role in large-scale collapse, it is enough to reduce the global collapse to a large extent. The creation of small imaginary holes in the world.

If it weren't for the help of the strength of the empty law core, this research would not have been carried out so smoothly anyway.It was such a feat that even Walter had to marvel at it.

"But there is a very serious problem here, Cheng Xi." Walter said solemnly:

"We...were running out of money.".

Chapter 140: Data Immortality

No money?

Cheng Xi froze for a moment, he really didn't expect this to happen.

Although I was a little surprised, I felt a little natural after reacting.After all, the anti-entropy money is not blown by strong winds. If the budget continues to be in deficit, there will always be a day when it will not be able to support it, but he did not expect this day to come so soon.

In fact, if you think about it, the construction of both the star chain and the submarine data center is a big project. The development of new games plus the research and development of the star-like series of weapons and the space-time stability anchor is also a large expenditure, and it has not yet been completed. It is normal to be unable to support financially if it can generate income.

"How do you feel that the anti-entropy financial crisis is caused by me alone?" Cheng Xi complained in his heart.

Having said that, in fact, the above items are not easy to stop except for the research and development of the imitation star series weapons.

The star chain has been built, needless to say the importance of space-time stability anchors, and the development of submarine data centers and new games is related to a very important plan of Cheng Xi, which is the last retreat he planned for human beings.At the same time, 147 is also one of the endings that all technological civilizations can choose when they are faced with being unable to leave the star system and can only stay on planets whose resources are about to be exhausted.

——Data Immortality.

The belief in victory is important, but if Honkai can be defeated only with passion, the civilization of the last era will not perish. Cheng Xi must consider the consequences of failure.

It is one of Cheng Xi's original intentions to formulate this plan to allow as many people as possible to survive under the catastrophe of the collapse of civilization.

(bdff)

Honkai is aimed at the destruction of civilization, so if you just want to allow individual people to survive intact until the end of Honkai, it is actually not a difficult task. The former civilization has already done this.But if it is enlarged to the scope of all human beings, the cost in any aspect will be too high.So Cheng Xi finally decided to keep only consciousness!

Utilize the material characteristics of Herrscher's core that can store consciousness, build a data network around the counterfeit core, and finally achieve the purpose of accommodating the consciousness of all human beings.

Of course, a single counterfeit core is not enough to hold the consciousness of so many people, and it is even estimated that even if hundreds of them are manufactured, it is far from enough, but just like the "Event Horizon Telescope" that was claimed to be half the size of the earth in the previous life is actually composed of eight Like the telescope group composed of large radio telescopes distributed all over the world, Cheng Xi can also use hundreds of imitation cores to construct a huge network array the size of the earth by imitating the special arrangement inside the core.

Although the body is abandoned, as long as the plan is successful, human beings can hide their consciousness in the core array. At that time, human beings only need to spend a small amount of resources and costs to maintain the normal operation of the core array until the end of the collapse and the restart of civilization. , and then return to reality through biological cultivation or other methods, there is hope only after being alive.

Of course, this plan is too pessimistic, and there are many problems. In this case, human civilization is not much different from extinction. Therefore, it can only be regarded as the last way out when there is no other choice.

But recently, the emergence of another technology has caused Cheng Xi to pay more attention to it. If his idea can be successful...

Forget it, let's solve the immediate problem first.Cheng Xi shook his head and thought.

If you want to solve financial problems, it is nothing more than increasing revenue and reducing expenditure.The matter of throttling has been considered just now, and the research and development of the imitation star series weapons can be put on hold for a while, and other things will be discussed later.

As for open source...

There are only a few of the most profitable businesses in the world, among which energy, arms and drugs are the most profitable.

Needless to say drugs, I, Cheng Xi, have been at odds with gambling and drugs all my life.In terms of energy, the output of core fusion is Honkai energy, which obviously cannot be used for civilian use. As for controllable nuclear fusion, although there has been a lot of progress, it is far from the time when the technology is mature.As for arms...won't you consider selling a few more Titan mechs to Destiny?

And if these points are temporarily excluded, you can only find ways to generate income from other places.Coincidentally, here is a next-generation game ready for the global market.

"How about it." Cheng Xi said: "Add new krypton gold points in the game, open the skin system, add exclusive weapons and equipment, speed up the iteration speed of equipment, increase the activity density, and enhance the enemy's attributes according to the situation..."

Listening, a few drops of cold sweat gradually appeared on Walter's forehead:

What have you experienced in the past, and how do you feel that you are so proficient in these fraudulent operations?

Seeing Cheng Xi, who is eloquent and has no intention of stopping at all, Walter's expectations for the future of this game gradually become more and more pessimistic.

"How about... I still insist on opposing it?" He hesitated for a moment, thinking to himself.

Chapter 140 IX I Am The Only Light

"To be honest, Cheng Xi." Walter suddenly interrupted Cheng Xi who wanted to continue, trying to change the topic to another place: "Sometimes I really wonder, what is your will and determination to fight against Honkai? Where did it come from."

Cheng Xi was refreshed when he heard the words: here we come, the political interrogation with anti-entropy characteristics is coming, and it is personally reviewed by the anti-entropy leader.

He is very clear that whether the answer is perfect or not will be directly related to the next budget of his research institute, so he must cheer up and take it seriously, and the answer must be clean and beautiful!

"Obviously you are not from this world, why do you work so hard for this world?" Walter mentioned a setting that was so long ago that Cheng Xi almost forgot on "[-]", which was also buried in his heart. A long-standing question.

For people from another world, shouldn't they be most concerned about how to find their way home and save their hometown?Why did this guy not take the usual path, and decided to stay and forcefully destroy this big boss without even thinking about it, as if he didn't have the slightest nostalgia for his own world. Is there something wrong with his own thinking or this guy's brain circuit is wrong? normal?

Between himself and Cheng Xi, Walter hesitated and chose to believe in himself.

"Something has to be done, right?" Cheng Xi shrugged, not knowing that he was defined by Walter as being out of his mind.

He and Walter stand from different perspectives, so they have different perspectives on thinking about problems.He himself is very clear that his rhetoric to Walter and the others was fabricated from the very beginning. His original world was not used at all, nor did he need to save it, and he really didn't have much nostalgia for that world... …In fact, he didn’t even think about how long he would live when he first came into this world.

But since he survived in the end, it is natural to cherish this life saved by someone, and not let his efforts go to waste... From a certain point of view, Cheng Xi can be regarded as living for others Typical.

"If possible, who doesn't want to play games and watch TV at home every day, invite friends to go out for a leisure trip from time to time, fly kites in the park, go fishing by the lake, and occasionally go back to school to miss the past school days... Isn’t it a pleasant day like this?”

"But, President Walter, if you are asked to live such a life now, will you go?" Cheng Xi asked back.

Walter imagined that kind of picture. Although that kind of life is ordinary, it is so beautiful that people yearn for it, but...

He shook his head to answer Cheng Xi's question.

Not unwilling, but unable.
