Nobody told me it's not a game

Chapter 145 It’s said to be useful, but it’s actually not very useful.

The train station of Sky City is located in the southernmost part of the city.

In almost all cities, the areas around train stations are the busiest and most commercial areas. But Sky City seems to be an exception.

Surrounding the train station is an undeveloped open space. Among the lush greenery, only a giant silver-white tower with riveted steel plates stands.

Dr. Electronics floated to one side and said: "Following 'energy conservationism', since we mastered digital adventures, the residents of Sky City no longer take risks personally. Over time, the train station has become inaccessible and is considered the least popular in the entire city.

The place."

This explanation seems unreasonable to others.

Asuka asked: "What is digitalization adventure? Ultimately, what is datafication?"

Well.

Dr. Electronics was slightly startled and didn't know how to explain it.

He could only say: "Madam, when you get to the place and try it for yourself, you will understand."

The giant white iron tower in front of the train station is the so-called "digital adventure center".

The doctor led Zuo Chang and others into a room. Feiniao looked at the furnishings in the room and fell silent again.

She is a four-digit community leader, and even if her knowledge is not extensive, it cannot be said to be poor.

If something she has never seen before is placed in front of her, she can probably guess its purpose.

but……

She really didn't know the use of the things in this room.

What comes into view are five large cylinders that look like coffins, lying horizontally. Each cylinder can accommodate one person, with thick cables exposed, and it looks like it should be a "creation of the new era."

In addition to the large cylinder, there is also a computer in the room.

A real computer.

There’s a keyboard and mouse, and there’s a host display—still a hairtail screen!

Zuo Chang's brows jumped wildly. Seeing the technological products of modern earth in the "different world", it was inevitable that he would feel a sense of distortion.

Dr. Electronics lit up the computer screen. Zuo Chang took a look and saw that the center of the screen was extremely familiar, the adventure interface of "Becoming Zero"——

From top to bottom, there are three options:

【View retinue】

【Retinue Formation】

【Get ready for adventure】

ah.

Exactly the same.

The question is, how to achieve data-based adventure in reality?

Real adventurers enter the virtual world to take risks. Is this a dream-like virtual experience, or is it a real fight with swords and guns?

The technology of the Sky City seems to be very high. It doesn't seem unbelievable that they can even despise the physical body and achieve spiritual immortality, blending reality and virtuality together.

Zuo Chang clicked on "Retinue Formation" and quickly got a prompt:

【You have no followers yet.】

He clicked "View Retinues" again, but nothing came up.

He looked at Dr. Electronics and pointed to the cylinder in the room: "Do I have to let people lie down in that round coffin first before I can have followers?"

"That one is called the 'Interactive Coffin', not a round coffin."

Dr. Electronics will correct it first.

Then, he said: "Yes, Lord Zuo. The interactive coffin has the ability to identify, scan, and upload data. Adventurers don't have to do anything, just lie down."

Zuo Chang nodded.

He looked at Bai Lin and said with a smile: "Bai Lin, lie down and try it."

Bai Lin frowned: "General, is this safe?"

Zuo Chang turned around and said: "Doctor, tell him that our project has zero risk and is absolutely safe."

The doctor was slightly startled.

Adhering to the spirit of seeking truth from facts, he said: "City Lord Zuo, our project is very unsafe. Living people can enter, but the 'scanning' of the interactive coffin will produce huge radiation, which even adventurers will find difficult to bear; and,

During the progress of the 'digital adventure', the 'instructions' you give will turn into electric currents and penetrate the adventurer's brain fiercely! Once or twice, this white-scaled gentleman may not die. In the long run... he will not die.

It’s also handicapped.”

Zuo Chang was silent when he heard this.

Under the suspicious gazes of the group, he spread his hands and said: "This is different from what you said at the beginning. If the side effects of digital adventure are so great, then what is the value of your 'invention'?"

The doctor pointed to the dummy on the wall and said, "City Master Zuo, we usually use specially made dummies to take risks."

dummy?

Zuo Chang took matters into his own hands and put a dummy into the interactive coffin.

After a slight clenching sound, the interactive coffin emitted a flickering blue light, and a roaring sound sounded——

Zuo Chang found that this sound was very familiar to him. It was the sound of the hard disk reading data.

After this, a retinue appeared in the formation.

Zuo Chang opened it and found that this was the retinue panel of "Becoming Zero":

Name: Adventure Puppet (NO.1030).

Cultivation: Seven Realms.

Talent: None.

Skills: None.

Below that is a series of regular data such as attack power and defense power.

Zuo Chang looked at it and said: "The numerical values ​​​​of this dummy are super-powerful! Generally, there are no such strong ones in the Seventh Realm."

The doctor said with a smile on his face: "This is the product of Sky City's top technology!"

Zuo Chang asked again: "But why don't you have skills?"

The doctor felt a little guilty: "This... the attack power and defense power are easy to stack. If you use excellent materials to make a dummy, you can get very high data; the realm is also easy to get. As long as pure magic crystal is installed, you can imitate seven

Fluctuations in cultivation level. However, talents and skills are the domain of gods, so they cannot be imitated! Isn’t it a fantasy to let a pile of irons master skills?”

Zuo Chang looked at the doctor with a strange look in his eyes. He folded his hands and said: "If you don't know skills, what's the use of just having realm and attack power? Can you kill the monsters in the copy with one knife?"

The doctor nodded: "Yes, yes, we just kill the enemy with one knife. Otherwise, what else?"

"...Are you sure that your dummy can kill the BOSS of the elite copy without skill support?"

"If you can't kill him, then don't go."

The doctor has a very generous heart, how big a deal is it?

He smiled and said: "Digitalized adventures are more than enough to deal with ordinary dungeons. As for those 'difficult dungeons', you can lead a team to conquer them yourself! I can see it. There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons around you. These gentlemen and ladies,

Everyone is a master!"

This is not bad.

Zuo Chang came in with his vanguards from all directions to visit. The weakest real bow here also had six realms.

Their strength combined with Zuo Chang's experience is enough to clear all dungeons of 96511.

But……

That's not the problem. Zuo Chang has high hopes for digital adventure!

Nowadays, only dummies without skills can be used for adventures. The only ones that can be cleared are low-level dungeons that are not difficult. Those dungeons that are slightly more difficult still seem to have to be practiced in person using traditional methods?

Then there is no advantage!

Zuo Chang was silent for a moment, and first tried to control the dummy to download a copy——

Ancient battlefield.

After a little experimentation, Zuo Chang discovered that Tianshen probably copied Sky City's technology and created the game "Becoming Zero".

The actual operation of the digital adventure is exactly the same as the copy in the game, both are turn-based war chess mode!

Zuo Chang controlled the dummy to slash at the Shadow of Darkness with a knife, and thought silently: "Even if I use one knife at a time, it will take me at least sixty rounds to clear the ancient war... If I can master any AOE skill, with the dummy's cultivation

In order to maintain the attack power, won’t this copy end in one second?”

He thought for a while and asked: "Doctor, since you can read the data of the dummy, you should be able to read the data of the corpse, right?"

The doctor nodded and said: "Yes. Moreover, the skills mastered by the corpse during life can also be read. The problem is-"

"what is the problem?"

"The problem is that the corpse will rot. As time goes by, the corpse's cultivation level and talent skills will decrease until they disappear... When the digital adventure was originally developed, radical scholars studied for a long time, but in the end they were unable to do so.

To prevent this 'leakage', we cannot even delay it significantly. Continuously searching for suitable corpses is certainly a way, but this is not only morally burdensome, but also very troublesome. Adhering to energy conservationism, we finally adopted the dummy solution."

Zuo Chang had the answer in his heart.

He smiled slightly and said: "I know a preservation master. She may be able to solve this technical pain point."

The doctor didn't know why and asked: "Does she save energy?"

Zuo Chang slapped his thigh: "It's so energy-saving! Has the communication tower been repaired? I want to make a phone call."
