My portable gaming girlfriend

The sudden speech of Bayes in the novice suit seemed to drown out his intoxication - it was obvious that Bayes was speaking to him who was peeping through the 'back door'.

"How can it be?!"

Aiolian's complexion changed drastically, and he blurted out.

"I just came here to buy cheats, but I was fooled into spending twice as much. You must think you are a marketing genius, right?"

"..."

"It's a pity that I was just cooperating with you. I have already discovered your 'little trick'. Fortunately, I am a kind person and didn't immediately report the matter of 'cracking the artificial intelligence companion' to the Endia Security Management Department. Of course, I still have a shortcoming of selective 'forgetfulness', as long as you do me a little favor, I can even completely forget about it, what do you think?"

This is a one-way 'surveillance', Bayes can't hear Aiolian's words, but he is confident that the other party will not ignore him.

"You won't refuse. Come to the 110th floor of the No. 1 server tower, and I will wait for you there."

Aiolian clenched his fists.

Being cheated, that was an experience he hadn't experienced for a long time. He had always been the one who deceived others, but this time he was really fooled. The other party's performance is in place, of course, this is also due to the stiff and ugly appearance.

Aiolian was extremely angry at the moment, so angry that a strange smile appeared on his face.

There is no way to get entangled any longer, so he reluctantly left the black market and went to the virtual world.

Tower meeting room.

When Aiolian was just teleported here, the person who summoned him was quickly writing some formula-like words on the holographic screen.

"Are you an employee of Endia? How did you find the black market? And how did you discover the hands and feet on the cheat?"

The maid who had just "sold" brought herself a cup of tea, and now the two of them had reversed their forms, and Aiolian became the guest. He could only try to suppress his anxiety and pretend to be calm.

"The black market was found by a 'friend' for me, that's all. And finding out the hands and feet of your cheating won't bother us."

He didn't deny it, but he didn't admit whether he was an employee of Endia.

"what you up to?"

"Nothing very important, just a little favor—there was such a man and woman who went to your shop before I went, don't you remember?"

Bayesian used a holographic image to show Aiolian the freeze-frame images of the two characters in battle. Although the costumes and hair colors were different, and they were not wearing masks, Aiolian still recognized them immediately from the voice and movement. The only person who bought two "Legend of Mountains and Seas" cheats in his store.

"To be honest, I was very happy after discovering your hobby. It almost made me feel that everything went smoothly as if it was driven by fate—after you sold them the cheats, you must have sneaked a peek at their next actions, right? ? Tell me what you saw."

Aiolian's face changed, looking at Bayes for a while, and looking at the cracked version of "Artificial Intelligence Companion" standing quietly beside him.

If he doesn't tell him the information he wants, he will report to Endia about cracking the artificial intelligence companion. If Endia attaches great importance to this and starts to target himself, then the business will probably not go on.

"There must be a cause and an effect. From the images of the past, I can infer all possible future behaviors of them, and this will serve as a judgment on the truthfulness of the information you convey. So don't try to deceive me, take all the details you know tell me."

Bayes said coldly.

"I just want to ask a question."

Aiolian said with an ugly face.

"what is the problem?"

"Are you from Endia?"

"Yes, but not. People will temporarily belong to certain organizations, groups, or even individuals throughout their lives, but ultimately they still belong to themselves."

Bayes admitted cleanly, but also said some inexplicable things.

"Well, let me tell you everything~ Some things have troubled me for too long, and I have been waiting for a smart person like you to find the answer with me."

Aiolian understood what he meant, and changed his defensiveness to a humble and flattering attitude.

"It's true that the attitude changes quickly enough. I'm not a smart person, but most people's so-called troubles are mediocre, and they are not a problem at all. I hope yours will not disappoint me."

Bayes glanced at him.

"When you were acting before, the attitude change was not bad. Of course, I admit that I am a mediocre person, and I like to find some 'challenges' for myself on weekdays, but I guarantee that this time it is definitely a difficult problem that subverts cognition. It’s unbelievable, and I can’t explain it in a few simple words, first let me play that video directly for you to watch.”

"Can."

Aiolian called up the video. In the next moment, the scenery around the two of them was no longer the simple colorful room in the reception room, but a desolate high mountain, with thunder flashing in the red sky.

There's a lot of fighting going on here right now.

"This black dragon is the boss of the main chapter of "Legend of Mountains and Seas", but please pay attention, it is not a simple game character now."

Aiolian guessed that Bayes hadn't really touched the game, so he took the initiative to take on the role of commentary.

In front of Bahuanglong, a woman with a pair of scimitars was fighting fiercely with a blue-haired young man with a crossbow. The young man was the player who had fought against the Omega team before, and now he was not wearing a mask.

His companions, the silver-haired girl and the blond twintails, also didn't wear masks, and they were engaged in a difficult tug-of-war with a bone dragon flying in the sky and breathing out blue flames.

But it was the strange blonde woman who caught Bayes' attention, and her opponent was just as weird as herself, a woman with long green hair and a broomstick. The fighting method of the two is also very strange, there is not a single weapon, but there are many golden and green brilliance colliding with each other, and ice picks appear out of thin air from time to time.

"This blond woman..."

"She is an NPC in the game "Mirror Island". She has no name in the game and has always been called a goddess. Here she is not a simple game character."

"What do you mean by 'not a simple game character'? Why does the NPC from the game "Mirror Island" appear here?"

"Why? This matter involves what I call 'unbelievable', please read on, and I will tell you everything."

Not far behind the woman with the scimitar, there was a girl with pink hair who was falling asleep.

Communication in battle caught Bayes' attention.

"Absorption? Master?"

"Brother, you may not know their identities, but I must be very interested in what you said, but don't be impatient, those two are about to appear."

"Don't give in."

Of course, Bayes did not wait too long. A white-haired woman suddenly appeared on the battlefield and joined the forces of the blue-haired youth.

"Who is this? Looks like a player—"

"No, no, she is definitely not a player!"

Aiolian was a little emotional and interrupted Bayesian.

"It's hard for me to believe that you don't know this person with your behavior. So tell me, what can she be if she isn't a player?"

"She is also an NPC, yes, the artificial intelligence in the game."

"reason."

"Reason? I know her."

"You know NPCs? Oh, then I know them too."

"Did you know that artificial intelligence can also generate self-awareness?"

Bayesian did not answer immediately after listening. After a long silence of more than ten seconds, Aiolian couldn't help but speak again——

"I know it's hard to believe, especially if you're from Endiya. It's impossible for Endiya to know these things, but in fact they haven't moved. Of course I can guarantee that these are facts, I The 'plug-in' exists for the purpose of observing them. What's even more frightening is that at least half a year ago, there were such existences that awakened to self-awareness, and Veramia is one of them."

When Aiolian said "scary", there was no fear in his eyes, only blazing yearning, like a girl looking at new clothes in the window.

The video didn't stop, and soon the battle situation changed again, because a fighter jet suddenly emerged from the crack in space.

"Look! Do you have any doubts this time?"

Whether it is Veramia's transformation into a dragon, or her dialogue with the fighters, it is clear that they are indeed not players.

"Can't believe it? Look, there is more than one artificial intelligence with self-awareness in the world! Do you want to study them? Except for her, yes, Veramia, her awakening can be said to be made by me Made it 'by my own hands', she is my test product..."

"Is it really possible for self-awareness to exist in artificial intelligence...?"

Ignoring Aiolian's chattering words, Bayes was already lost in thought.

But after a while, the battle will come to an end. The woman with the scimitar and her master's other summons were on the losing side, but she summoned a new boost, a swarm that could reproduce indefinitely.

"Those are things summoned from the abyss of fishy worms. They were originally hive thinking groups, but now they seem to be controlled by brain worms."

The swarm formed a black dragon wriggling its body. It was a body made up of thousands of worms. Every inch of the scales was opening and closing. Just thinking that this closing movement was actually the worms agitating the body, It makes people sick to eat.

It doesn't have the eyes of a dragon, but it has the eyes of countless worms. It stares at the pink-haired girl and the blue-haired young man trying to save her with thousands of eyes, and opens its bloody mouth to swallow.

The pink-haired girl was called "Sakura" by her companions. In the final picture, a rapidly spreading blur appeared behind her, and the objects in the blurred area seemed to be blurred as if they had been mosaiced.

Then the video stopped, Aiolian turned off the playback, and the surrounding scenery returned to the familiar reception room.

"what happened?"

"I don't know, it seems that this 'Sakura' did something to destroy the data of that world. Hey, Endia really doesn't know about these NPCs?"

"At least I haven't heard of it at all."

"Ah, it's the smell of conspiracy! What kind of conspiracy lies behind the secret that no one knows? It's so exciting to think about it! That blue-haired guy and his companion must know this secret, damn it, there are still people in this world How many people know..."

"Heh, they know they know, but they may not be able to investigate clearly."

"Wait, you're going to keep your word? I've provided the footage and you said you wouldn't report it."

"Of course I'll turn a blind eye to your small business. After all, there can be more cooperation between us. You and I have our own sources of intelligence and technical styles, and I think things will definitely get interesting."

"That's exactly what I expected~"

"So, happy cooperation?"

"Happy cooperation!"

A smile appeared on Bayesian's face, and he stretched out a hand at the same time—even though the smile only pulled two folds on the unhealthy blue-gray skin.

Iolian's black-gloved hand took each other back. People with different goals use this ancient etiquette to express that they have temporarily reached a cooperative relationship.
