This Game Is Too Realistic

"These dogs are called animals..."

The bridge of the Heart of Steel.

Looking through the sighting equipment at the pyramid made of human heads and the blood stains covering the walls more than ten kilometers away, the captain of the Heart of Steel couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

After glancing at the captain standing next to him, Chu Guangxin looked out the French bridge window and spoke slowly.

"If they know that this kind of provocation is effective, they will quickly build the second and third buildings, and even kill everyone the moment they lose."

"These guys are quite active in killing people. There is no need for us to waste ammunition in meaningless places."

From a practical perspective, the benefits of delivering indirect firepower into concrete-dense urban areas are quite limited.

Not to mention howitzers, which rely on fragmentation to kill artillery, even strategic nuclear weapons with an equivalent of tens of thousands of tons are not as exaggerated as in film and television works when facing concrete bunkers.

There are examples recorded that when a certain atomic bomb exploded, everyone in the concrete building within 600 meters of the center of the explosion survived, and as long as they did not run out to take a look, there were no sequelae.

Not to mention mutants.

This kind of thing can only be killed directly by excessive neutron rays. It is unrealistic to expect it to be killed indirectly by the after-effects of carcinogenesis.

"...I understand." Captain Shen Yu nodded.

At Chu Guang's signal, he looked at the adjutant aside and spoke.

"Drop the anchor chain!"

The adjutant gave a military salute.

"yes!"

The huge steel anchor chain was thrown from the belly of the airship and smashed into the ground, kicking up billowing dust on the surface.

Then the elevator was lowered.

As the vanguard troops and construction equipment were successively delivered to the surface, everyone on the deck was busy.

Chu Guang briefly greeted the captain for a few seconds, then turned around and went to the solitary room, looking at Yuer who was fixed in a wheelchair and sitting there.

Wearing a pair of virtual reality glasses on his head, he was connected to the airship's viewing equipment, and right in front of him was the view of the pile of heads.

"Is this why you are going to heaven?" Chu Guang looked at him and said.

Yule didn't speak, just sat there quietly, as if he hadn't woken up from his "sleepwalking" state.

But Chu Guang knew that this guy had woken up before dawn and was just pretending to be crazy.

Chu Guang looked at him and continued.

"Where is the sanctuary?"

After a long silence.

Yule suddenly chuckled, as if he was laughing at himself and everyone else.

"Don't you already know?"

"I know that the sanctuary is a virtual one. I want to ask where its server is?" After a pause, Chu Guang continued, "Or to put it another way, how to eliminate it."

Yule expressed his uncooperative attitude by remaining silent.

Chu Guang didn't pay attention and continued in a soft voice.

"The imitation crystal inserted in your brain has locked part of the memory. Our experts on the airship are indeed in trouble, but you should know that even so, it is only a matter of time for us to crack it. ”

"Is this a bluff?"

"No," Chu Guang said calmly, "It suggested to me that I send your brain to Ideal City for slowly studying it, but this way you won't have any possibility of atonement."

"Atonement...haha."

Yuer suddenly laughed out loud, turned his face wearing VR glasses towards Chu Guang, and raised his voice.

"Why should I atone? What sin do I have? Compared with the people killed by the wasteland, compared with the people turned into livestock or beasts by the wasteland, the few people we sacrificed are nothing at all, let alone those guys who were originally Just like animals... they will rot even if we do nothing."

"If you really know them, you should know that they are hopelessly stupid. They will put chains around their necks and say bad words to anyone who tries to pull them away. They want to be like animals. I think they are better than animals. No one can adapt to this wasteland, and no one wants the wasteland to last forever. It’s better to let them have some meaning, at least their death in our hands can be used as fuel to end the wasteland.”

Yule laughed hoarsely, and his laughter gradually became crazy.

It's like going crazy.

Lu Bei, who was standing behind Chu Guang, stared at this twisted and rude guy, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Chu Guang looked at Yuer expressionlessly.

It wasn't until his voice became hoarse and he couldn't laugh anymore that he slowly spoke.

"Then who decides the meaning of what you mean?"

Yule continued in a hoarse voice.

"No one needs to define us. Future generations living in the new world will give objective evaluations of the things we have done. It doesn't matter even if we curse us. I didn't do these things for honor or reputation."

Chu Guang looked at him with pity.

"Pity."

"..." Yule said nothing, and showed an expression that it didn't matter what he said.

Chu Guang looked at him and continued.

"Even if you go to the new world, your wasteland will not end. This land will become a wasteland in another sense. And your sacrifice has no meaning. It will be your own self-satisfaction from beginning to end."

Yule finally couldn't help but retorted.

"How do you know what people will think in the future?"

"It's not a question of whether I know or not, but why are you so sure?" Chu Guang looked at him and said word by word, "You haven't even lived for a second in your fantasy paradise, and you expect to use it. Heaven’s solution to earth’s problems.”

"When a person is hungry, we will give him food to maintain basic survival, and then tell him how to get more and live with more dignity, instead of suggesting that he change to a fake one that can even digest mud." A stomach, and a mouth that can even chew off stones."

Yule smiled coldly.

"You think it's too simple. You can end the wasteland without starving? Then the wasteland will not exist from the beginning. This is not a problem of hunger at all——"

"But at least hunger is a concrete problem. After we solve this problem first, we can solve the next problem." Chu Guang looked at him expressionlessly and dismissed him unceremoniously, "I hope all concrete problems will exist." A single optimal solution can solve all problems once and for all as long as it becomes a new human being. So what happens next? "

Yule was stunned for a moment and blurted out slowly.

"……then?"

"Yes, and what next? How do you plan to solve the problem of New Humanity? Then design a life form that is more perfect than New Humanity, and pull everyone to 'evolve' again? Or, let's say jumping from a Utopia.㳔Another Utopia?”

Looking at You'er who didn't speak, Chu Guang continued.

"Destroying misfortune, this is the method you leave to future generations to solve the problem. If you fail, that's fine, but there is a one-in-10,000 chance that you will be lucky enough to succeed, and that will be the biggest disaster."

"Any price will become a necessary sacrifice. They will repeat today's tragedy over and over again, and then drown others in an impossible dream. So I think it is too simple, or you think it is too simple. ”

Averting his gaze from the blank face, Chu Guang knew that he had never considered this at all and continued coldly.

"Perhaps one day we will evolve into a new species, but that must be because we happen to have reached that stage, rather than evolving for the sake of evolution or solving problems for the sake of solving them."

"I gave you a chance to redeem yourself, but now it seems I wasted my time."

"You'd better go to another place to confess."

After saying these words, Chu Guang turned around and walked out the door.

Yuer stared blankly at the direction in which the footsteps were leaving. He couldn't help but feel flustered, and suddenly spoke.

"Wait a moment."

Chu Guang, who had already walked through the door, stopped and looked at him.

"What's up?"

Yule was silent for a while, then slowly spoke.

"The Sanctuary is not on the ground, and certainly not in a server. It is a server array composed of countless simulated crystals, which are connected into a large network with the assistance of one or more nodes... The Sanctuary is This net.”

There was a trace of surprise on Lu Bei's face.

On the one hand, he was surprised that these countless imitation crystals constituted the holy realm, and on the other hand, he was surprised that this ignorant guy actually confessed.

It was not just Lu Bei who was surprised. In fact, even Yuer himself was not sure whether what he did was correct.

That memory extractor not only roughly pulled out his memories, but also reminded him of many trivial things that he had long forgotten.

He is a researcher and should know better than anyone else that bold assumptions and cautious verification should be the most basic methodology.

However, the irony is that he clearly knew it but did not do it. Instead, he placed his hope on replacing human nature with divinity.

Perhaps it is just like what the manager in front of me said.

The end of this dream is not heaven, but hell in another sense...

As he spoke, Yule slowly turned his wrist that was tied to the armrest, raised his bent index finger, and pointed at his brain.

"For example, I have one here. It's just that the signal here is not very good, so I can't connect to the Internet."

The Heart of Steel itself is a large iron shell. Unless you stand on the deck, information exchange with the outside world can only be through a dedicated information interface.

That passage was under surveillance by Xiaoqi, so Luo Gan would not leave such an obvious clue and take the initiative to get in.

And this is also the reason why Solar Eclipse can unexpectedly pass through Zhao Tianqian's body and activate the power-off crystal to connect to the Holy Realm.

Because the moment Zhao Tianqian died, Luo Gan lost his connection to the crystal. Physical crystals require human body life activities to provide energy.

And if it were through the Yul crystal, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to enter the sanctuary at all, because it was basically a known fact that he was captured.

Chu Guang frowned slightly.

“Distributed computing?”

Yul smiled to himself.

"Although it is different, you can understand it this way... Every crystal is a cell that constitutes 'Luo Gan' and the 'Sacred Domain'. All cells share information in the shared network. When one of them When the crystal is offline, the data stored in the crystal exists as an independent personality. For example, there is Luo Gan living in my head right now. "

Chu Guang fell into deep thought.

"so it is."

This is similar to Xiao Qijun.

Sometimes when entering an area without signal, Xiaoqi can still communicate with him through VM or other electronic devices, but in fact the person he is communicating with is not Xiaoqi in the shelter, but a person with time point A as the Node, Xiaoqi splits into sub-individuals.

For the convenience of understanding, let’s call the ontology A and the sub-individual A1.

A1 owns all the cached data before time point A, as well as the sum of the computing power of all portable terminals.

Therefore, even if A1 does not possess all the data and computing power of A, it can still communicate with him normally. However, due to the interruption of communication, the data between A1 and A is not shared.

However, when the signal is restored, the data between A1 and A will begin to flow again, and the information will be merged into one through the exchange of information.

Although it may seem strange to think about it from a human perspective, it is a very common thing for digital life.

After all, information is what digital life is all about.

It is precisely because of this that Xiao Qi is always clingy and pesters Chu Guang to take her with him every time he travels far away.

Luo Gan probably has a similar existence.

Each crystal contains a portion of the fragments of the "Sacred Domain". Under normal communication conditions, all crystals together form the entire server array.

The loss of one of the crystals is insignificant to him. After all, he can still survive even if he only has one crystal and one brain.

It’s just that in that case, it would be inconvenient to do anything due to the limitation of computing power.

Unlike Chu Guang who was deep in thought, Lu Bei's expression gradually changed and he couldn't help but ask.

"Countless...how many are they?"

If that Luogan Jinhe City buried a thousand or even ten thousand crystals, wouldn't it be endless?

They can't be like the mutants and chop off everyone's heads, right?

Even if it is to eliminate the Torch Church, this approach is too extreme.

It is even more unrealistic to do a CT scan of everyone’s brain.

Biomimetic wafer implantation surgeries are usually performed very secretly, and the materials used are special carbon-based materials that cannot be detected by ordinary nuclear magnetic resonance, let alone temporary laboratories on the front line.

If you want to find out every one of them, you must at least use the scanning bed in the shelter. Or you have to use a memory extractor to retrieve traces of the work of the bionic wafer frame by frame from the visible memory.

Yule shook his head.

"No one knows exactly how many there are except Yujiao himself... I'm afraid even the Holy Son doesn't know."

After a pause, he continued.

"But it shouldn't be necessary to install one for everyone. After all, I heard that the thing is made of black boxes, and black boxes have a working life. For example... peripheral apostles like Zhang Zhengyang do not have crystals implanted. He needs to communicate with Luo Gan through us."

"I guess so." Chu Guang nodded.

He remembered Heya saying that most of the black boxes in Vault 117 were bionic organs.

The first black box he recovered from Vault 117 was a neural connection unit capable of producing a brain-computer interface.

Later, the Torch Church also tried to recover the black box and the administrator's log left by the former shelter director from him, but failed.

After thinking for a moment, Chu Guang continued speaking slowly.

"If I were him, I would probably install one for each plantation farm and heir, thus indirectly controlling all plantation-style settlements, and then select a few individuals who are easy to manage and mix them in to contribute computing power. and servers for backup purposes, as well as just-in-case options.”

Coincidentally, Jinhe City is mostly populated by this type of settlement, and even those with relatively decentralized power like Hope Town are a minority within a minority.

Not even just Jinhe City, but the entire Jinchuan Province.

The eagle dogs kept in captivity by the nobles of Boulder City have opened up almost all the markets that can be developed here and transformed them into the shape they want.

In this way, when Luo Gan executes his plan, he only needs to use a small part of the chess pieces, and most of the chess pieces can be safely hidden in the dark.

Whether it is to conduct a comprehensive examination of everyone or to kill everyone here, the workload is difficult to complete.

No wonder he gave up the chess piece Zhao Tianyi without hesitation...

He had already laid a huge invisible and intangible net, covering more than 90% of the survivors in Jinhe City.

Looking at Chu Guang who was deep in thought, Yuer smiled faintly.

"It's very torch-like, isn't it? The Holy Son is only a nominal leader, a spiritual totem. The one who makes plans is every forerunner who enters the Holy Domain."

"In each diocese, the forerunner is the Holy Son who acts as the divine authority, the totem that believers look up to, and the ones who actually execute the plan are every apostle connected to the Holy Realm and countless guided believers."

Chu Guang suddenly thought of something and said.

"Are you Yuer or Luo Gan now?"

Yule was silent for a long time.

This is a difficult question to answer.

If you put all the responsibility on a certain devil in your heart, it may indeed alleviate his sins.

Is this really the case?

After a long time, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I have no idea."

"Maybe... both."

…

The door to the confinement room was closed again.

Following Chu Guang, Lu Bei quickened his pace slightly and walked to his side, asking in a low voice.

"What to do with that person?"

Chu Guang said casually.

"It depends on him. In fact, rather than handing him over to the company for research, I am more inclined to keep this chess piece with me."

Of course, if the council is interested in the secrets of that guy, I don't mind bringing my old friends from the east coast together.

Anyway, being so far away, it is unlikely that the company will come here to investigate on its own. In the end, it will have to rely on the "local snake" of the alliance.

Lu Bei looked at Chu Guang in confusion and asked.

"What's the point of doing this?"

To be honest, he didn't really understand why he wasted so much time with the prisoner. He had ten thousand ways to make that guy honest.

It doesn’t even require enterprise technology.

Chu Guang could probably guess what the young man was thinking and said with a smile.

"Of course, you should have heard it. Every bionic crystal is a sanctuary, and Luo Gan lives in it. The one on that guy is the same. We just negotiated with him for half an hour. ”

Glancing at the time on the VM, he continued.

"This is actually a good start. Didn't you notice? That guy has gradually begun to doubt whether the extreme ideal he insists on is correct... And as he said, the two personalities of Yuer and Luo Gan , are stored in his body at the same time."

"His decision was actually a joint decision between two people."

"It's just that subconsciously he can't tell the difference."

The memory extractor has retrieved all of Yule's memories, but it still has not retrieved the specific location of the sanctuary and the method of destroying it.

It can only be said that that memory is not in his mind at all, but is cached on the bionic chip in his brain.

Now Yule took the initiative to hand it over, which showed that this was not just his decision, but also the decision of one of Luo Gan's clones.

Otherwise, even if he wanted to confess, he wouldn't be able to.

When faced with unanswerable questions, a gap appeared in the psychological defense of the two souls, so he felt that this was a good start.

After listening to Chu Guang's explanation, Lu Bei's eyes suddenly lit up.

"I understand! As long as the crystal in his head exchanges data with Luo Gan outside, that idea can be transmitted to... the sanctuary where Luo Gan belongs?"

It's like putting a bomb in a package and delivering it to Luo Gan!

This was the only metaphor he could think of, but the more he thought about it, the more reliable it became, and his eyes started to sparkle.

As expected of a manager!

Lu Bei looked at Chu Guang with even more admiration.

On the other hand, Chu Guang himself, after listening to this young man's interpretation, said with a smile.

"It's not as simple as you said. If talking can solve the problem, there is no need to bring the Iron Heart here."

Lu Bei was stunned for a moment.

"Ah, can't you?"

Chu Guang shook his head.

"In the final analysis, it is impossible to cache the data on one terminal and cover the entire network's data."

This is like the data cached on Xiaoqi's terminal, even if it is separated from the computer for a while, it will not overwrite the data on the computer.

Luo Gan did not have a fixed machine to save data, but chose to disperse all his selves to bionic crystals implanted in his brain.

The advantage of this is that the machine's location will not be found and destroyed, but it also has a fatal flaw.

When the environment in which most of his "doppelgangers" live has fundamentally changed, and they cannot be brainwashed through mind-interference devices, this huge network formed by countless nodes may easily change from the fundamentals. was subverted.

In the final analysis, bionic crystals need to rely on the human brain for storage. If there is no psychic intervention device, the two actually affect each other.

At least the fuzzy calculation part that constitutes personality must be calculated in the human brain... Chu Guang heard this knowledge from Yin Fang.

Lu Bei looked at Chu Guang with a confused expression and scratched the back of his head in shame.

"I'm sorry, sir... I didn't listen. Why don't you tell me how to do it right?"

Chu Guang smiled and said.

"To put it simply, the bastard hiding in the Sanctuary feels that this wasteland is hopeless. The world must be destroyed once before it can be reborn."

"Since they have this stupid idea, let's show them what we do!"

Doesn’t that guy think this world is hopeless?

Then let him see what the alliance does!

From mutants to slaves, he will get rid of the troubles here one by one.

When the time comes, he would like to see how that guy can say that "there is no hope" without any shame.

First things first…

Chu Guang thought for two seconds and said.

"Well, there's trouble over there at Pinecone Wood Farm. Please contact the Army Command for me and ask them to dispatch a troop to rush over immediately."

If Zhao Tianqian and the apostle are not the only crystal holders, it means that there are still countless eyes in the Luogan Pine Cone Farm outside.

With the telepathic device closed, the communication block there has been lifted.

Maybe they will find a way to bring mutants in.

After all, the guy himself said that there was a passage to the outside world in the basement of the church, but he did not say that there was only one passage.

Lu Bei's expression immediately became serious, and he accepted the order without saying a word without asking the reason.

"I'm going right now!"

Looking at Lu Bei who was leaving quickly, Chu Guang suddenly thought of something in his heart.

Speaking of which...

Today happens to be the third day.

"Wait a moment."

Hearing the manager's voice, Lu Bei stopped, turned around and said respectfully.

"Do you have any other instructions?"

Chu Guang smiled and said.

"The opponent should be a mutant."

"Just let the brothers from the Jungle Corps pass by!"
