Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2556 The whereabouts of the server

If it weren't for such a Cthulhu-area player who risked his life for love, Liu Xing would have been hard-pressed to bring Tian Qing and Li Mengyao to the Cthulhu area.

Of course, since Ao Guanhai is willing to make an exception to meet Tian Qing and Li Mengyao who have just entered the Cthulhu Running Team game hall, then Ao Guanhai should be able to find a way for him to bring Tian Qing and Li Mengyao to Cthulhu. The area only requires some procedures, such as participating in a special promotion module first, or giving a certain number of points by yourself before Tian Qing and the two can come to the Cthulhu area.

As for the lovers, they got married in the end and left the Cthulhu Run game hall together, which is also gratifying.

Is it really gratifying?

In the eyes of other players, this pair of lovers is indeed married. Not only are they together, but they are also out of the bitter sea of ​​the Cthulhu Run Game Hall. More importantly, at some point, the Cthulhu Run Game Hall will It is quite generous, so the props redeemed by players from the Cthulhu Run game lobby will not be recycled. At the same time, you can also redeem the remaining points into cash or other props before leaving.

Therefore, many players in the forum are discussing how much wool the players in the Cthulhu area can steal from the Cthulhu Running Game Hall when they leave the Cthulhu Running Game Hall. After all, everyone knows that Cthulhu Players in the Sulu area will definitely not be short of points, and there are all kinds of props.

Of course, this is indeed true, because Liu Xing, as a player in the Cthulhu area, has so many points at this time that he doesn’t know how to use them. After all, there are really not many points to spend in the Cthulhu Game Hall. At most, you can just buy a few character cards, and then go around the mall to see if there are any interesting props you can buy. Otherwise, you can just exchange some cash and return to the real world.

If Liu Xing were still single, I'm afraid he would still spend money like water in the real world. After all, the pressure when participating in the module in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall was too much before, so when he returned to reality The world will definitely have to find ways to relieve its own stress, so spending money is the most convenient and quickest way.

Because as long as you are willing to spend money, there are not many things you can enjoy.

Therefore, Liu Xing feels that if he leaves the Cthulhu Run Game Hall at this time, he can become a billionaire in the real world. However, as a billionaire, he cannot just sit back and do nothing. A rich man who can eat, drink and have fun, because you still have to face the mythical creatures that run out of the Cthulhu Run game lobby.

Therefore, Liu Xing actually wanted to meet this shadow player from the Cthulhu area. After all, as a player in the Cthulhu area, he had a lot of experience in modding.

But having said that, Liu Xing really can’t understand why he and his wife left the Cthulhu Running Group game hall, because rounding off the players in the Cthulhu area is equivalent to leaving the Cthulhu Running Group game hall. , after all, they can choose whether they want to participate in a certain module anytime, anywhere, so players in the Cthulhu area can theoretically not open for three years and survive for three years after opening.

And according to some unreliable gossip, a player in the Cthulhu area mentioned that he had personally customized a module while bragging with his friends, and then completed the feat of clearing the module in one hour.

Yes, this player in the Cthulhu area spent a lot of time and energy, and also used a lot of resources to tailor a module for himself, which means that the venue in this module was found by this player , the NPCs and mythical creatures inside were also found by this player. As for what these mythical creatures wanted to do, it was also arranged by this player, so after everything was ready, this player came and opened the module. Then directly solved the final BOSS in the module.

This is still possible in theory, because the Cthulhu Run Game Hall is also an open world game, so everything is traceable, so as long as you trace the source, you will find that in the module, you will The mythical creature that shouts and kills may have been basking in the sun and drinking drinks on the beach a day ago, but in the end, it had to give up its vacation to deal with you.

No wonder this mythical creature will be cruel to you, because whose vacation is interrupted by work and their mentality will not explode?

The grass snake has a gray line, and the pulse is thousands of miles long, so you can use something to attract the attention of mythical creatures, and then arrange a few NPCs to enter the field. When a certain mythical creature takes action, you can start it as a player. This mod.

After all, the composition of this module is similar to the composition you write. It only needs three elements: time, place and characters, and the rest just needs to be supplemented one by one.

But this only exists in theory, because apart from this rumor from an uncertain source, there is really no definite case to prove that this routine works, and even if you are fully prepared, The entire script has been written, and the Cthulhu Running Game Hall can also perform a deus ex machina for you, and suddenly arrange for new mythical creatures to be added to the module. After all, the door to the dreamland can be opened anywhere.

"Uh, Brother Zhang, what's wrong with Liu Xing?"

Because she had just met Liu Xing from the martial arts module, Li Mengyao didn't know why Liu Xing in front of her suddenly became distracted. It felt like you were chatting with your friend, and your friend suddenly fell asleep.

Zhang Jingxu said unsurprisingly: "Liu Xing encountered a small problem after entering the martial arts module, that is, there was a strange gadget in his mind. In short, it made him distracted from time to time! Fortunately, here It is a fantasy dreamland, so the probability, frequency and duration of Liu Xing's distraction will be reduced. But fortunately, this problem is almost solved, because Liu Xing has been recognized by the King in Gray. He only needs to do something back. You can just get rid of that gadget in your mind." At this point, Zhang Jingxu also suddenly thought of something, so he briefly described what Liu Xing saw and heard in Fei City to Li Mengyao, including Liu Xingyu. He came to an NPC who might have a brain-computer interface on the back of his head, and then talked about all the speculations about martial arts modules, especially the possibility of artificial intelligence.

"Huh? The essence of this martial arts module is actually a science fiction module?"

Li Mengyao frowned and said, "Didn't I just say that Xiao Su recently got a set of magical armor? The main material of this magical armor is a piece of meteorite, but the problem is that this piece of meteorite There are some familiar words on it, which seem to come from the real world rather than the current New Dragon Empire, as well as those kingdoms that we have only heard about but never seen, so we and other players suspected that this piece of extraterrestrial iron was run by Cthulhu! The group game hall is playing tricks on the manhole cover that is said to have the highest speed and is also the only manhole that has ever been in space.”

"That manhole cover? It seems that this is really possible, because this manhole cover can be regarded as a modern technology. If it is purified through high temperature in space, then this manhole cover can also be regarded as a piece of extremely pure iron. It can indeed be made into a A rare magical weapon."

Zhang Jingxu touched his chin and said: "So I suspect that there is actually a hidden plot line in this martial arts module, which is to allow players to activate the possible AI master control room. After all, the AI ​​intelligent system requires very high computing power, so it needs There are not so many servers! Just look at the big Internet companies in the real world. Their servers all need to find a cave to place them; so no matter how powerful the technology in the future is, the control room of this server will not be the same. It’s too small, and the cause of the omnic crisis we experienced may have been a problem in the server control room of these AIs.”

"Um."

Li Mengyao nodded and said seriously: "Actually, there is a cave dedicated to servers near my hometown. I once took a look outside, but of course I didn't see anything. After all, these servers are very expensive. A small problem may lead to losses at the small target level; so if the omnic crisis does not cause huge changes in the terrain, then the servers of these AI intelligent systems should be stored near Chiyou City, right?"

Although Chiyou City is a city without winter, other cities near Chiyou City are much cooler, so some people think that Chiyou City is so much hotter than its surroundings because of its special terrain, while some people think that Chiyou City is as the ancient demon-Chiyou. The hometown of Chi You is naturally the place where Chi You's soul returns, so the city of Chi You was affected by the angry soul of Chi You, and naturally became hotter.

But after Zhang Jingxu’s suggestion, Li Mengyao thought of a possibility—there might be a large number of running servers underground in Chiyou City!

"Brother Zhang, you should know that Chiyou City is not very hot, and the explanation you can think of may be that Chiyou City has a tropical rainforest climate. After all, there is a rainforest not far away that should not exist! But this is not the case in Baidu. Ninety-nine point nine out of ten players don’t think it’s a problem, because hot spots are hot spots and it doesn’t affect anything.”

Li Mengyao shook his head and said: "But if you think about it according to Brother Zhang's thinking, we have to suspect that the main reason why Chiyou City has become so hot is that there may be countless servers underground in Chiyou City! That's right. The servers of these AI intelligent systems may be hidden underground in Chiyou City, because there are countless underground rivers underground in Chiyou City. We went to the underground rivers when we were looking for sword forging materials for Xiao Su. , but no one dared to go deep into that place. It is said that some people were forced back by the sudden heat before they had gone very far. "

"oh?"

Zhang Jingxu's eyes lit up, and then he couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that Chiyou City is too far away from Tianshui Town, and we can't come over to explore the secrets of this underground river together, and it's hard for the three of you to do so at this time. Do something, after all, if there are really a few underground in Chi You City, If there are one hundred thousand or even millions of servers, there must be some defense methods left, such as the most classic security robots and the legendary laser traps. In short, if the three of you want to find out what is deep in this underground river, then Even if there are a lot of successes, it's still a narrow escape."

"Yeah, we don't dare to enter the depths of this underground river casually, because there was also a second-rate expert leading the team before, and the expedition team of nearly a hundred people suddenly disappeared without a trace in this underground river, and everything was lost. No one stayed! Although there were only a few second-rate members in the expedition team of nearly a hundred people. The masters plus a group of third-rate masters, but they would not be wiped out just like that, so those NPCs thought that the expedition had encountered a World of Warcraft, because although the terrain of the underground river was relatively open, it would still be quite crowded if there was a real mess. Yes, you should understand what I mean.”

"Yeah, I understand."

Liu Xing suddenly said at this time: "Under normal circumstances, some passages are quite spacious, because designers will prepare certain design redundancies when designing this passage, so even if there are occasional peak periods, There won’t be any big problem! But when passers-by become anxious and want to leave this passage as soon as possible, even if the number of passers-by is not as high as the designed average flow, congestion may occur due to mutual constraints.”

Seeing Liu Xing who suddenly came to his senses, Li Mengyao, who had little experience, was startled.

"Actually, I have thought before that no matter how powerful these AI intelligent systems are, they may not be able to free themselves from the constraints of the server. After all, the server is equivalent to the human body for the AI ​​intelligent system. No matter how strong your spirit is, If there is no physical body as a carrier, everything is empty talk, unless this is a fairy world where the soul can leave the body. "

Liu Xing said seriously: "So I was thinking about where these servers should be? Then I thought that those servers in the real world are either stored in deep mountains and old forests that are ventilated and have low temperatures all year round, or they are simply placed In the sea, after all, if If it is cooled by air conditioning indoors, the annual cost is not high. But if it is placed in the sea to dissipate heat through sea water, the effect is indeed very good, but if something goes wrong, it will be blamed. , and it’s quite troublesome to maintain.”

"But then I thought about it, these questions are actually not important. What is important is that if these servers really exist, then the meaning of their existence is to be discovered by players! Therefore, these servers are unlikely to be placed in the sea. After all, there are no players. It will be fine to explore the sea.”
