Chapter 283: Otherworld

"The bureau takes it very seriously and has classified this matter as a level A incident."

Yuan Zhixia sent the address of a hot pot restaurant, "I'll tell you the details offline."

"good."

Li Sheng emerged from under the turret and said to Hui Yu, "You stay here to look after the house. I'm going out to see if there's anything I want to buy."

“Want to buy”

Huiyu thought about it seriously and raised the phone in his hand, "I want to raise a fire dragon."

She saw a short video playing on the screen of her mobile phone. It was a man wearing a powered exoskeleton and a heavy anti-burn suit, using an iron chain to strangle the neck of a fire dragon.

The video publisher’s ID is clearly [Red Rider Loves Playing with Dogs]

The driver belongs to the Thousand-Maw Beast Guild and follows the path of a summoner. Upgrading a familiar requires a lot of resources, so it has always been relatively poor.

In order to generate income, he opened a short video account some time ago to receive unruly magical creatures sent by other players, such as griffons, aboleths, trolls, ogres, hellhounds, etc.

Through his own "magical" taming method, he can tame magical creatures so that they can obey their master's orders, thereby earning employment fees and short video traffic fees.

As for this "magical" domestication method, first use the language proficiency spell to communicate with the monsters and try the language pua.

If PUA fails to achieve mind control, brainwashing and psychedelic drugs,

If that doesn't work, try the dragon fruit, heart and lung, heart and foot, blueberry juice, fan and other set meals.

"Brothers and sisters, please pay attention! Double-click! Double-click——"

The red driver wearing a fever-proof suit shouted at the camera at the top of his lungs. While being sprayed by the fire dragon's dragon flames, he pulled the iron chain tightly and tightened the fire dragon's neck.

There is a subtle, strong sense of déjà vu.

"Want to raise a fire dragon? I think you look like a fire dragon."

Li Sheng's eyelids twitched, and he took away his phone amidst Hui Yu's protest, "Go do your homework."

After leaving the three-dimensional warehouse, Li Sheng rode to the hot pot restaurant. Yuan Zhixia had already ordered the food and was waiting there. There was also a special bureau-standard talisman on the table that was used to insulate sound and reduce the sense of presence, so that he could talk while talking. Not to be disturbed.

"It's been a while since I last saw you. You've changed a lot."

Yuan Zhixia raised his eyebrows. Both parties knew each other's true identities, so there was no disguise.

Under close observation, she could know Li Sheng's physical strength from his breathing rate, pulse, and heartbeat.

Yuan Zhixia is now a member of the Mobile Task Force under the Special Affairs Bureau. He has performed several regular missions with the Mobile Task Force. His current level is Lv16.

As a lone wolf player who has not joined a guild and has no regular mission resources, Li Sheng is also Level 16, which proves that his final evaluation will never be lower than A every time he completes a scenario mission.

"Each other."

Li Sheng sat down. He could feel that Yuan Zhixia's physical strength was not much higher than that of ordinary people, but he seemed to be surrounded by an inexplicable barrier, which should be some kind of legal profession.

"This is the information currently summarized by the bureau,"

Yuan Zhixia handed a square, rugged mobile phone to Li Sheng and said casually: "Since there are many players or relatives of players among the victims of this incident, this information will be published on the forum soon to calm panic. Emotions. So it’s not a leak.”

"Thanks."

Li Sheng took the phone, activated the multi-line brain method, quickly scanned the information at a glance, and had a general understanding of the incident.

As early as two months ago, a mobile app called "corda" began to circulate on a small scale on the foreign dark web.

The software is disguised as a game app and has a size of up to 5G. Users do not need to register and can directly play a series of games including Sudoku, English spelling, and quizzes.

It seems normal on the surface, but if the user successfully completes the game, within the next 8 hours, his or her brain power will be greatly improved, his memory will be enhanced, and he will become smart, eloquent, and extremely confident.

This feeling is addictive and very useful for exams.

If the user wants to continue to maintain this state, he or she must watch a one-minute advertisement to restore physical strength in the game.

"The APP was first released on the dark web, and was deleted by the uploader after reaching hundreds of downloads. And it has quite complex code restrictions set up internally, prohibiting anyone from uploading it online again.

Application packages can only be sent via Bluetooth transmission between two phones offline. It spreads quite covertly. "

Yuan Zhixia picked up a piece of fat beef with her chopsticks and said calmly: "In addition, after trying to play the game, the user's cognition will be rewritten and they will not be able to realize that something is wrong. They will not tell adults, but will spread it. For teenagers of the same age who have a good relationship.

As a result, official agencies in Europe and the United States and the Global Occult Coalition (GOC) have never discovered it.

Your cousins ​​also got this app from the mobile phones of their cram school classmates. "

Li Sheng frowned and said, "Is it similar to memetic brainwashing?"

"almost."

Yuan Zhixia nodded and said: "The key is this. In the user service agreement and privacy policy interface of the software, there is a rather strange text."

She took the phone, opened the corda software in safe box mode, and clicked on the user service agreement page.

The user agreement is tens of thousands of words long, and the rest of the content is unremarkable, with only one very small, almost legible text——

[Users voluntarily give up the right to own their souls, bear all risks brought by playing the game, and act as an anchor]

"Giving up the right to own the soul is easy to understand. Some devils from the lawful evil camp will also add some deceptive clauses to the contract,"

Li Sheng said in surprise: "But what does 'acting as an anchor' mean?"

"This is the highlight."

Yuan Zhixia exited the user service agreement, clicked on the game interface, and quickly lost a game. The option "Watch ads to gain physical strength" immediately popped up on the screen.

Click to watch. The advertising content is not a money-making mobile web game or a short play or short video.

Rather, it is a montage of unclear meaning.

The red flaming clouds covering the sky, the tsunami hundreds of meters high, the modern city in disarray after the earthquake, the severely mutated animals, the scavengers wearing pig-nosed gas masks, finally settled on a star similar to Sauron in "The Lord of the Rings" The huge hanging eyeball of the eye.

"The bureau's analysts have gone through extensive verification and determined that the video is not forged or generated by AI and is the original video."

Yuan Zhixia said: "If I am not wrong, the souls of those teenagers in a vegetative state fell into the dilapidated world where the video is located in some unknown way.

This is the first large-scale, premeditated abnormal infiltration incident from another world. "

Yuan Zhixia's tone was quite serious. It was not a good thing to travel to another world. Who knows if it was Sword Art Online, Life in a Different World from Scratch, Jobless Reincarnation, or a spoof of the shitty planet in the comics.
