Dream Guide

Su Huilan took the lead and lay down in one of the boxes. Before closing the lid, she encouraged Aoki with her eyes and said, "See you later."

When Aoki lay in it, he always felt like he was entering a coffin.

The shape and curve of the box are probably ergonomically designed, and there are soft cushions underneath, making it very comfortable. The side walls have a metallic sheen, but they don't feel cold to the touch. I don't know what material they are made of.

When the lid snapped shut, the world suddenly became quiet.

Aoki was startled. The sound insulation effect was a bit too good. Fortunately, the cover is transparent, so you can see people outside.

Mei Yiqiu held his pipe in his mouth and looked at him with a smile. The white hair that exploded all over his head became stronger and swollen, and Aoki wondered whether the radiation in his brain was greater than before.

I don't know whether it was the glass cover that distorted the light or a psychological effect. Qingmu always felt that Mei Yiqiu had a weird smile. He looked like Dr. Evil in comics and movies, and he was his experiment.

Lying in a coffin worth twenty million dollars, he fully realized what it was like to be a guinea pig.

Mei Yiqiu gave him a thumbs up. Aoki thought he was complimenting him, but to his surprise, the professor just stretched out his finger to press the switch. As the professor's hand touched a certain location on the top of the coffin, the originally transparent glass lid began to darken. Slowly, it changed from transparent to light gray, dark gray, until it turned into black.

Aoki felt as if he was waiting for death. This kind of game experience is not very friendly. If it is not improved, he believes that players will not like to play this game.

When the darkness completely hit, Aoki felt some fluctuations, as if someone was dreaming next to him. He clearly felt the existence of a space and entered it subconsciously.

Then he saw the bright sunshine shining on the empty street, and the shadows of the willow trees swaying in the wind. There are many houses built on both sides of the street, but the styles are not uniform. Some are modern, a bit like medieval style, some are oriental wooden buildings, and some are Western-style stone houses.

But these things are nothing. What attracts Aoki is the huge mountain in the distance, right at the end of the straight street.

It is said that it is a mountain, but it is not, because it has straight ridges and smooth planes, and is more like a pyramid. The top of the pyramid towers into the clouds, and above the clouds is another pyramid hanging upside down. The two towers are only connected by one vertex. From a distance, they look majestic and majestic, but they also make people worry about whether they will fall.

Aoki just got a dream corridor from old lady Cuan not long ago, and also saw the magical pyramid hourglass. He didn't expect to see such a shape here again.

While he was surprised, he couldn't help but have questions in his heart.

This should be the game world designed by the professor. Why would they design such a thing? Although Professor Mei had discussed the alliance symbol and the mirror pyramid with him, what was the significance of putting this thing into the game?

With doubts, Aoki walked towards the pyramid. As I walked, I was still wondering if this thing would also rotate upside down and a dark passage would appear.

When he got closer, he realized that he had thought too much. This thing is just a huge pyramid-shaped house with an open door at the bottom.

Su Huilan stood at the gate and smiled at him.

"How do you feel?" she asked.

"Very realistic!"

This was Aoki's intuitive feeling. There had never been a game world that was so realistic, but he couldn't figure out how this place was created. If it is made by a computer, how can human consciousness come in? Is that coffin worth 20 million really so awesome that it can transmit computer scenes directly to the human nerve center?

Su Huilan probably saw his doubts and said with a smile: "It is not difficult to transfer the simulated scenes to the human brain. The difficult part is how to let the players create the world themselves."

Aoki nodded and said, "So the coffin you built can extract human memories?"

"It's not a coffin, it's a space box." Su Huilan corrected with a smile, "We are not forcibly extracting human memory, but helping people use memory to create the world. Without memory, human consciousness cannot create a new world. But memory In turn, it restricts people’s creativity, so we hope that players can get rid of the shackles of memory to a certain extent.”

"We have designed the underlying rules in the game world. To put it simply, they are the basic physical laws of the world, but they are very basic and even have many contradictions. This is to simulate human dreams as much as possible without leaving our control. . In a world where there are contradictions in basic physics, wouldn’t it be more able to stimulate people’s creativity?”

Aoki thought it was a bit complicated, so he ignored it and asked: "How to distinguish between the earth and the invasion consciousness?"

Su Huilan said: "Invading consciousness and humans on Earth belong to two different species. Each species has its specific racial characteristics. Even in the early stages of life, when there is no memory, certain characteristics will show up. Players When entering the game, there will be a brief black box moment, when the connection between his consciousness and brain is severed. Although this time is very short, so short that we can completely ignore it in the world of classical physics, but in the quantum world , but this time is long enough.”

"At the moment when consciousness does not depend on matter, different races will definitely show different characteristics. For example, intruding consciousness will show aggression, want to find living bodies to attach to, or disguise themselves as the shadow of other conscious bodies, etc. wait."

Aoki said: "These are just your assumptions. We have not captured alien consciousness and tested it."

"Yes. But isn't science based on hypotheses?"

"But in order to test this hypothesis, is the price paid too high?"

Su Huilan chuckled and said: "Mr. Aoki's tone sounds very much like the sponsor of the project!"

Aoki disagreed, looked around and said, "Where is the black box you mentioned? It looks sunny here."

Su Huilan said: "This is a prehistoric town."

"A prehistoric town?"

"Yes, it means the place before Genesis. The game has not really started yet. You can think of this as a game hall, where players can read game guides and exchange game experiences with each other."

Su Huilan pointed to the gate at the bottom of the pyramid and said, "Every player needs to go inside for training."

Aoki nodded: "I understand. It seems that I have a chance to become a hardcore player in this game."

Su Huilan shook her head and said, "You are not a player, you are a god."

"God?" Aoki laughed, "I don't even know the rules of the game, so what kind of god am I?"

"The three great gods in Genesis, Cronus, Situ and Aoki, you can't deny them even if you want. If you want to pretend to be an ordinary player, it's better to change your name, but the subconscious will not deceive, and concealment will consume your mental power."

Aoki knows that this game is very similar to a dream and can use mental power. In other words, a person with strong mental power can change the world to a certain extent. From this point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a god.

"Will someone challenge God's position?"

"There will definitely be."

Su Huilan giggled, secretly checking the strength of Qingmu's mental power, and Qingmu was also checking her. The spiritual power of the two people carefully met outside the pyramid house, and everyone understood it tacitly.
