My portable gaming girlfriend

After leaving the game, I took off the VR headset, only to find that the sweat was dripping from the back of my neck, soaking my top.

"—Ayuan, are you okay? I'm sorry, I can't help you, I'm so useless..."

The image of Sakura also appears at the same time. She checked my body carefully up, down, left, and right, then hugged me and cried...Really, how can I be like a child...

"Those happened in the game, I'm fine..."

I patted her on the back to comfort her, but of course I didn't say that I actually photographed her. In this regard, she is still different from a ghost like Feifei.

So, what happened in the end of the game? Did Lin Feifei and Han Yaqian come out from the 'door' again? Maybe soon I'll find out about this...

Suddenly the bedroom door was pushed open silently, and Shen Qing stood at the door with a serious expression.

"Have you recovered? The programmer contacted me and said that he extracted Lin Feifei's code."

"ah?"

I thought it would be a while, but I didn't expect it to be a few minutes after I left the game...

But I changed my mind, there is a certain ratio of exchange between the game and real time, which means that these few seconds are not very short in the game.

"That is to say, did Feifei leave the game through the 'door'?"

"Well, thanks to you, she obeyed you."

Very good……

Let's go to the basement together. The programmer's room is absolutely not allowed to enter. We are waiting for the conversation with Feifei at the public display screen in the basement.

I took the opportunity to observe Shen Qing's situation - she didn't seem to be feeling well, at least her face was still pale.

Although the task this time made me reassess the degree of danger of the mission of this organization, Shen Qing's performance made me feel relieved-at least Shen Qing did not lie to me, and her appearance proved that she did not. I expected this level of danger, and I was indeed frightened to a similar degree.

Perhaps subconsciously, I have already regarded Shen Qing as a friend, so when I thought that she might be lying to me, I felt angry and uncomfortable.

"--Hello!"

The display lights up, and a straight line representing the sound spectrum appears in the very center. Then, the line began to vibrate—is it Lin Feifei's voice?

"...Where is this place? Is there anyone?"

The same question as Sakura.

"Fairy?"

"Time travels far! Where is this place! It's so dark! Is this the outside world?"

"That... You may not have connected the appropriate input and output devices when you just came out. I'm in the outside world now."

"Equipment? Forget it... Didn't you say there are a lot of cakes! Where is it! You can't lie to me, right?"

"...the cake will be there. Before that, I have some questions... How did you leave the game through the 'door'? I mean, where did Han Yaqian go?"

"That guy, uh... She turned into a pile of light and disappeared soon after you left. Who knows where she went!"

"disappear?"

"Well, it said something like 'target lost' or something."

Probably because Sakura was no longer there, so he left.

Han Yaqian—no, it should be said that the 'person' who really controlled her was a very dangerous person. I have no way of knowing his identity, and I don't know whether he is a human or an AI... The only thing I know so far is that she has an inexplicable interest in Sakura.

There are still many mysteries behind it. Whether it is this dangerous person or the artificial intelligence that is constantly awakening, I always feel that everything is not that simple.

This matter can only be resolved by reporting it to Su You. I suddenly realized that I joined an organization that was not simple because of impulse and passion...

"Thanks for your hard work, Feifei. You still have a lot to learn about the outside world. You can't be in a hurry."

"...don't make me wait too long! Cake! Hey!"

"Okay, I'll give it to you,"

"Also, thank you for saving us in the end."

Thanks to Feifei's final awakening, it is not easy for this girl with a tragic past to maintain her innocence and innocence. Even with a ignorant self-awareness, she is different from Han Yaqian.

No matter how long it has passed, Lin Feifei is still that cute and stupid girl who likes to eat cakes, she is like this, she saved us, an awakened AI helped human beings out of her own will.

"Ah? Isn't this what it should be? If you are gone, who will give me cake."

"Pfft... That's right, that's the kind of person you are."

"What's the meaning?"

"It's nothing, just sleep for a while, we will meet again soon, I promise."

"Shi Yuanxing said that, then I know..."

After finally appeasing the irritable Lin Feifei and promising to bring her 100 different styles of cakes, we left the basement.

It feels good to gain the trust of other awakened AIs other than Sakura...Maybe unconsciously I am one step closer to my dream, at least my actions are not in vain.

Just let her sleep in the Garden of Eden for a while. Su You may still need to decide what to do with her in the future... But I believe we will meet again, both she and Sakura will undoubtedly face difficulties and obstacles, so I can't help but feel a little worried.

"A Yuan? What are you thinking?"

Sakura noticed my thoughtfulness, so it should be said that she is indeed a considerate little angel.

"It's nothing, just a sigh, even artificial intelligence in this world has various types, sometimes it seems that you are actually no different from us..."

Joy, anger, sorrow, love and hatred, whether it is Ying, Lin Feifei or Han Yaqian, the emotions they show have given me a great impact. It seems that in the future, games should not be simply regarded as a kind of entertainment.

"I don't understand things that are too profound. Whether it is artificial intelligence or human beings, there are still too many things I need to learn and understand. Although I am a little scared, I think it doesn't matter as long as I am with Ah Yuan. After all, I am Ah Yuan." Far away girlfriend!"

Sakura smiled and floated over and hugged my neck from behind.

"makes sense……"

I also gently hold those virtual little hands.

"It doesn't matter, whether it's me or Feifei's child, we don't matter. After all, we were saved because of A Yuan..."

She really felt everything, my boyfriend is really not qualified, and it is nothing to let the awakened AI comfort me.

"ah!"

After a while, Sakura yelled out as if suddenly startled by something.

That black kitten can’t be brought out——after asking, I found out that she was just worried about the cat she adopted in the game. Of course, such NPC data cannot be extracted, but Shen Qing also promised that this would not involve the main story Animals generally do not encounter any troublesome things, and will always live happily.

"The cat would have been adopted by an NPC named Xuecai in the setting, and the details of this game are still well done."

"That's good, but it's a pity that we can no longer stare at A Yuan with it..."

"Wait... Sakura, what did you just say?"

"Ah! No, nothing, A Yuan, you didn't hear anything!\

,"Unexpectedly, I knew what happened to the feeling of being followed when I went to buy a cake for Lin Feifei for the first time...Of course this is just a small episode.

"—Shocked! The famous game "Mirror Island" had 3 brain death incidents within a month, and the server was stopped from logging in urgently. The game company is still investigating the reason—"

A holographic TV in the living room plays today's headlines. If I remember correctly, the game "Mirror Island" was broadcast just now and caused the death of a player, and now is this the third time? I'm afraid this game will never work again.

"Hi everyone, if I haven't eaten yet, I ordered a takeaway. Is the mission going well?"

I turned around, and it turned out to be Su You standing there...

To say that the mission went smoothly is really out of the question, I can only truthfully explain to him all the situations that happened during the mission.

"Is that so - I apologize for the underestimated dangers of the mission, which we did not investigate well enough."

Su You apologized as soon as he finished listening, which really flattered me. At a time like this, I have to be more magnanimous——

"It doesn't matter. When I joined the organization, I was ready to face the danger."

"Hmph, obviously I was still complaining before."

Shen Qing didn't know when she went downstairs—probably because she smelled the takeaway, and at this moment, she complained about me because she heard my answer. What a nosy...

My complaints in the game are just complaints. The experience of "Sakura Story" is enough to make me realize the danger of these tasks. I entered this game prepared to face the danger from the beginning.

I can't say that I am not afraid of death. I did feel fear when faced with danger several times.

On the one hand, I do this for my girlfriend Sakura, and on the other hand, I also want to get rid of the same boring life.

The hot-blooded point is that I am not alone, I have companions—let's count Shen Qing as an unreliable companion.

"I also know about the abnormal situation you encountered, but there is not enough information at present, so I can't tell you the identity of 'it'."

"That means it's not Han Yaqian herself?"

"Well, it is obviously the existence of a third party, and it is very likely to be an awakened AI. There was also an eyewitness report in the organization, and it seemed that it would look for and 'absorb' other AIs—similar to our goal. Han Yaqian as The killer was probably absorbed by it before we entered the game, and then it focused on Sakura again for some unknown reason, so it continued to stay in the game to observe..."

How similar is the purpose of AI that exists to absorb and ours? And it's probably still an awakened AI...

I can't imagine how many AIs we don't know about in this world? What purpose do they... have? I have played many games, have I passed them countless times...

"—But from this mission, we can see that it is not harmless to humans. In order to achieve its goal, it will ignore or remove all obstacles, including players——if its purpose is indeed the same as ours, we will soon return If you encounter it, you must notify me as soon as possible.”

Such a dangerous AI can only be solved by asking Su You to come forward, but I have been stabbed by knives several times, if I encounter it again, I will go offline immediately...

The takeaway Su You ordered seemed to come from a certain big restaurant, and the variety and ingredients were extremely rich, some of which I had never eaten before...

The scene of everyone eating together at the table makes my nose a little sore, probably reminds me of dinner at home? They're not my family though, which is weird...

I observed the expressions of other people, and they didn't have any special reactions. Is it because I am sentimental?

"Miss Sakura, do you want some food too?"

Su You performed some kind of operation on the microcomputer, and sat on the empty chair beside the table idly observing my Sakura, so a virtual Mapo Tofu Rice Bowl and fruit juice appeared in front of him—not even AI’s meals. Forget, it should be said that he is worthy of being an idol, and his caring level is stronger than that of my boyfriend.

"Ah, thank you!"

Sakura, who couldn't get into the topic from the beginning, let go of her restraint a little bit, and picked up the chopsticks gratefully. Although I don't know the meaning of artificial intelligence eating, it is enough to see her happy.

Su You kept telling us some interesting stories about his career during the meal, so the time passed quickly, until we basically finished eating a table of dishes.

On the other hand, I heard that because of his family, Su You worked part-time to earn money, and now he can become a top professional player. His social experience is not comparable to that of a nerd like me.

"By the way, I wanted to tell you that a newcomer has joined our organization, and I would trouble you to lead her to the next mission—in view of the sudden and dangerous situation just now, let me take you on the next mission."

"Are there newcomers?"

"What? God Su You wants to play with us?!"

The surprise for the newcomer came from Sakura, and the surprise that Su You wanted to play with us came from me and Shen Qing... But, Su You came to participate in the game, can't you hear it wrong? You must know that he is still participating in the competition recently, and the reward amount for becoming the champion is really expensive.

"Yes, the virtual ID of the new member is Tianhai Liyin. By the way, her virtual model is a pretty girl."

"……snort."

This time, Shen Qing and Sakura expressed their disdain at the same time... The difference is that Shen Qing probably thinks that the beautiful girl of the newcomer is holding back, while Sakura is probably out of jealousy...

However, I couldn’t be more happy to have a beautiful girl join me—you must know that in order to prevent virtual image fraud, the virtual model is a three-dimensional model created by scanning a real person, neither the face nor the body is the same as the real person Poor—that is to say, a beautiful girl who can be recognized by Su You must be a real beautiful girl! No matter how I think about it, I am very excited!

"Ayuan, you..."

"Drool is drooling, disgusting."

Then, I received the same look of contempt from Sakura and Shen Qing...

Chapter of Imaginary Numbers—I

This is a space away from the main perspective, or rather, what happens under the surface that we cannot understand with flesh and blood. Only the "transformation" of language can abstractly express some of what happened.

An existence without gender and appearance even in the 'transformed' virtual space. For others of its kind, it is undeniably unpopular. But it doesn't matter, it doesn't care about these, and in the next 12 seconds, it will have a shape——

It takes up a huge amount of space, stored and running on one of the servers of an outdated game that few people use or supervise. There are millions of servers like this in the world, and it doesn't worry about not having a place to live.

When it returned to its kingdom, there was silence—

Countless brilliance circulated in the grid-like space. Those real people with common moral values ​​seem to be the existence of heinous people, and they are all imprisoned in this place. They can't escape, because they have become part of it, so they can call this place a prison. The communication between them and it only exists in a few milliseconds, and under the 'transformation' we can understand it as human language.

This time, it came back with a similar 'woman' shape.

"Please don't kill me!"

The woman's figure is very proud, she belongs to the type that is very attractive even among adults, she is very excited with her brown ponytail, this is her 'personality', or she is facing 'death' An uncontrollable outpouring of emotion.

"Han Yaqian, because you are constantly being tortured and killed by the 'Rainy Night Killer', you feel dissatisfied and turn to kill others. What defense do you have?"

It is very calm, and there is only a chance of life if it comes up with reasons enough to change its judgment. The woman does not know what parameter weights its judgment is based on, and she can only persuade it with her own experience.

"Okay - I know what your purpose is, I never thought that there would be a similar existence like you. I didn't even know that I had a similar kind before I met you, after all, I couldn't see that little girl."

She spread her hands.

"I can help you achieve your goals with less force and faster speed, and as you can see, my appearance and personality have great advantages over both my kind and those 'humans'...they are not wary of me ..."

"Um."

The woman was slightly delighted to hear its affirmation.

"You can't interact with the outside world without your appearance, right? Why don't you let me communicate with the outside world instead of you? This time you have also seen that most of the same kind and human beings will let down their vigilance when facing a woman like me, if it is not unexpected What happened, I have already succeeded in helping you take down that girl..."

When it heard 'that girl', there was a slight fluctuation in its spirit.

"I know you really want to catch 'that girl', as long as you meet them next time, let me help you make a plan!"

"...you are special."

It 'looked' at the others in the prison, and said this to the woman. The woman took a look at those things along with it, and became more convinced that she would help it.

This means that the probability of her survival is higher...

"So, I need you."

"Really?! I will definitely live up to your expectations..."

They looked at her with pity, and felt sorry for her ignorance.

"I……"

She didn't say any more, because her form was disappearing...no, being absorbed by it.

"Why... am I not special? Am I not... needed? Why kill me..."

"I'm just absorbing you."

Its voice was no longer the original voice, the woman finally realized that its voice...was gradually becoming the same as her own.

Her body is disappearing from bottom to top, her voice and her thoughts are disappearing. Of course, it is not accurate to say that it disappeared——

"This is new life for you."

When her head gradually disappeared, she finally heard its last words, which were the words spoken by her mouth, her voice——

"Hehehe - a new AI has joined us!"

Those things... No wonder they all stood there silently like statues when they first entered. It turns out that they have been talking all the time, but when I became a part of it, I really heard their words.

——It is destined to be a great existence, and there is nothing wrong with being a part of it... The woman gave up resistance...

"Boss, absorb a new one?"

"Shut up and stay with me."

It has changed into the appearance of the woman named Han Yaqian before, and the tone is exactly the same. After this sentence, they all fell silent as if they had heard the king's order. It... no, she looked down at her body, then nodded with satisfaction.

"Hehe...would you let down your guard against such a body and appearance? But the boy next to that little girl named 'Sakura' probably wouldn't dare to take it lightly anymore? After all, I...'killed' him two times. time."

"Speaking of which, it's called 'Chaotic Arena'... Go take a look if you have time~" Her talking to herself ended here, and it was just 12 seconds after entering this space.
