The fantasy of comprehensive comics is realized

"One more thing. On the basement floor of this teaching building, there is a canteen serving all masters. It will sell some recovery medicines and gifts that can be used in the main selection. If there is a special commission, You can also ask the store clerk to do it, but of course you need to pay a fee.”

After Kirei Kotomine paused, he said with an indifferent expression: "Basically, this is all that needs to be explained at this stage. There are other things that I will tell you after the Holy Grail War officially begins. , before that, you can investigate more about this academy.~"

"The qualifiers will last for four days. After the four days are over, the first round of fighting begins. Before that, you have enough time to rest and prepare."

After saying this, Kotomine Kirei stood there motionless, staring in the direction outside the teaching building without any fluctuation, as if after the work was over, there was no need to say another word. This should It's probably because AI doesn't need to perform tasks other than those specified.

"Thanks."

Regardless of whether the other party could hear it or not, Bai Ye thanked him for the time being, bypassed him, and walked toward the underground floor.

After he left, several master candidates who had awakened their memories and were watching, all chose to step forward and talk to Kotomine Kirei after looking at each other.

…………

The first basement floor of the teaching building.

This is a mixed structure of a canteen and a canteen. Several NPCs wearing white chef uniforms are busy in the back kitchen. Tables and chairs are neatly distributed in the wide space.

In comparison, the canteen occupies less than one-tenth of the area, but it is directly facing the stairs.

The clerk at the canteen is a female NPC. She stands in front of the counter and faces anyone or NPC who comes to buy something with a professional and friendly smile.

Bai Ye came to the female clerk and glanced at the items on the counter. Apart from some recovery items used to restore physical strength and increase magic power, there were only some gifts that seemed to have unknown uses.

"Welcome, do you need anything?"

The female clerk smiled and chatted to Shirone, with a humanized look of expectation in her eyes - but of course, it was just an emotion simulated by a program, even though the advanced AI has the same thinking ability as a human. Circuits and logic capabilities, but the average NPC can only act according to established procedures. Her businesslike actions and expressions are just a behavioral pattern that has been set long ago.

But even so, one has to marvel at how detailed and in-depth Mooncell’s observations and records of human beings are.

··········Please ask for flowers·········

"What are the effects of the gifts here?"

Originally, with Hakuye's eyesight, it was certainly not impossible to understand the equipment that was just a magic ritual. However, these rituals built by Mooncell seemed to be a completely new system, and they were different from the equipment he had seen in the past. different.

"These rituals are embedded with a certain number of 'computer spells', which have magic-like effects and are effective auxiliary equipment for the masters."

The female clerk answered Bai Ye very friendly.

"I see, is it embedded with computer skills?"

.......

A look of understanding appeared on Bai Ye's face.

——The so-called 'computer spell', also known as CodeCast, is a simple spell used in the computer space. It is created by the spirit hackers to design and manufacture codes, and uses magic as the starting energy.

In other words, computer magic refers to a string of codes that can be used in the computer world and have magic-like effects.

In fact, it is equivalent to magic spells in the real world. Although the two are very different in nature, they actually perform exactly the same.

Through computer magic, spirit hackers can create magic effects such as launching magic bullets, creating barriers, enhancing their own bodies, etc. in the computer space.

Computer spells are to spirit hackers what magic spells are to magicians.

When Bai Ye got the knowledge about the online world from the Reiko hackers, he naturally also got the knowledge about computer techniques, so he didn't know everything about it, but that was it. After he got that part of the knowledge , immediately entered the fictional world of Lingzi and has been busy until now, and has not had time to learn those numerous computer skills.

"It seems that I will need to spend some time learning some computer skills in the future. It doesn't need to be much, but at least it must be useful in the Holy Grail War."

Chapter 1555 Rules of the Intelligence World

+A -A

"By the way, what currency is used in your canteen?"

Bai Ye suddenly remembered this question, and then asked the female clerk to find out, "Can the currency on the ground be used here?"

"The currency we use here is QP, which is quantum. It is a unique energy crystal in this fictional world of spiritual children. It is also the currency commonly used during the Holy Grail War."

The female clerk shook her head with regret, "Unfortunately, the currency on the ground has no effect here. After all, for us NPCs, only QP can improve our performance."

QP, also known as Quantum, is a certain energy crystal produced by Mooncell. If used by NPCs, it can improve their performance to a certain extent, so it is regarded as the "seven-five-three" universal currency in this fictional world of Lingzi.

"If you don't have enough QP, it is recommended that you wait until the main selection starts and when the arena is open, enter the arena and defeat the enemy programs wandering inside. Those enemy programs will drop a certain amount of QP after they die. QP, the stronger the enemy program is, the more QP it will drop."

Enemy programs will drop QP...which is equivalent to the wild monsters in RPG games that drop gold coins, right?

Bai Ye nodded thoughtfully, taking note of this information.

"Although I don't have QP on me now, I have a rather urgent commission here. Can I ask you to carry it out now? After the Holy Grail War begins, the fee will be repaid in full."

After Bai Ye pondered for a while, he raised his head and made this request to the female clerk, and said: "If there is interest, I am also willing to bear it."

As expected, the female clerk frowned, looking a little embarrassed.

"...If it's a not-so-difficult commission, I can make the decision to take it on, but I'll need to add about 20% of the commission fee as interest."

After being silent for a long time, the female clerk took a deep breath and agreed to Bai Ye's request.

"Can you take it?"

Bai Ye's expression was somewhat surprised. To be honest, he originally thought that this matter would probably fail. After all, if it was an NPC, he would only strictly abide by the rules of buying and selling, right? His request is similar to a credit, which is not easy to achieve on the ground, let alone a canteen with rigid NPCs as clerks.

"You are one of the fastest to wake up among these master candidates. You must have extremely excellent qualities. I think you will definitely survive to the next few rounds of battles. So, if possible, I I also want to establish a good cooperative relationship with you.”

The female clerk smiled, "For us NPCs, QP is a very important but hard-to-obtain resource. It would be great if there was a stable channel to obtain QP."

"If this transaction between us succeeds, I can make the decision and give you a 10% discount on your future purchases at our canteen. But if you trick us and fail to complete the transaction when the time comes, then we will have to drag you in. Blacklisted, I will never do your business again in the future.”

Bai Ye twitched the corner of his mouth.

What he said is quite philistine.

However, compared to this, Bai Ye was more amazed by the intelligence displayed by this NPC. The NPC created by Mooncell is really amazing. It can actually imitate the behavior and psychology of businessmen to this extent... From a certain In this sense, except for having no soul, these NPCs are basically no different from real people, right?

And the advanced AI that controls these NPCs is a being with memory, thinking, and soul... That kind of existence may no longer be able to treat them as simple programs.

But, can they be considered real beings? Are NPCs and AI considered ‘human beings’?

Bai Ye does not intend to think about such a philosophical question. The answer to this question is somewhat different. No matter what the answer is, it cannot convince everyone. Bai Ye will never waste his brain cells on such controversial issues.

He told the female clerk the contents of his commission.

"I want the trunk of an ash tree, the older the better."

…………

After the commission was over, Bai Ye took Nero and quickly returned to the teaching building on the ground... 0

"That NPC is quite knowledgeable!"

The girl's voice reached Bai Ye's heart through the contract, and the other party's tone was quite proud and complacent, "Yu's player is of course the best! Yu has a good impression of her, and the player can visit her more often in the future. Check out the canteen.”
