Real Cthulhu Running Game

If there hadn't been such a Cthulhu area player who risked his life for love, it would have been difficult for Liu Xing to bring Tian Qing and Li Mengyao to the Cthulhu area.

Of course, since Ao Guanhai was willing to let him make an exception to meet Tian Qing and Li Mengyao who had just entered the Cthulhu running group game hall, then Ao Guanhai should be able to find a way to let him bring Tian Qing and Li Mengyao to the Cthulhu area, but he needed to go through some procedures, such as participating in a special promotion module first, or he needed to give a certain number of points to let Tian Qing and Li Mengyao come to the Cthulhu area.

As for the fact that this pair of lovers finally got married and left the Cthulhu running group game hall together, it was also a cause for celebration.

Is it really a cause for celebration?

In the eyes of other players, this couple is finally together. Not only are they together, but they have also escaped from the bitter sea of ​​the Cthulhu game lobby. More importantly, the Cthulhu game lobby is quite generous at times, so the props redeemed by players from the Cthulhu game lobby will not be recycled, and you can also redeem the remaining points for cash or other props before leaving.

Therefore, many players in the forum are discussing how much wool the players in the Cthulhu area can get from the Cthulhu game lobby when they leave the Cthulhu game lobby. After all, everyone knows that the players in the Cthulhu area will never be short of points, and there are all kinds of props.

Of course, this is indeed the case, because Liu Xing, as a player in the Cthulhu area, has so many points at this time that he doesn't know how to use them. After all, there are really not many places to spend points in the Cthulhu game lobby. At most, he can buy a few character cards, and then go around the mall to see if there are any interesting props to buy. In addition, he can directly redeem some cash and return to the real world.

If Liu Xing was still a single, he would probably spend money like water in the real world. After all, the pressure of participating in the module in the Cthulhu game hall before was too great, so he must find a way to relieve his pressure after returning to the real world, so spending money is the most convenient and quickest way.

Because as long as you are willing to spend money, you can play a lot of projects.

So Liu Xing felt that if he wanted to leave the Cthulhu game hall at this time, he could become a billionaire in the real world, but he couldn't be a billionaire who had nothing to do and could only eat, drink and have fun, because the mythical creatures that ran out of the Cthulhu game hall still had to be faced by you.

Therefore, Liu Xing actually wanted to meet this shadow player from the Cthulhu area. After all, as a player in the Cthulhu area, he had a lot of module experience.

But then again, Liu Xing really couldn't understand why he and his wife left the Cthulhu game lobby, because the players in the Cthulhu area were almost equivalent to leaving the Cthulhu game lobby. After all, they could choose whether to participate in a module at any time and anywhere, so the players in the Cthulhu area could theoretically do it without opening for three years, and then open for three years.

And according to some unreliable gossip, a player in the Cthulhu area mentioned that he had customized a module himself when he was drinking and bragging with his friends, and then completed the feat of clearing the module in one hour.

That's right, this player in the Cthulhu area spent a lot of time and energy, and also used a lot of resources to tailor a module for himself, that is to say, the venue in this module was found by this player, and the NPCs and mythical creatures in it were also found by this player in every possible way. As for what these mythical creatures wanted to do, that was also arranged by this player, so after everything was ready, this player came to open the module, and then directly solved the final BOSS in the module.

This is still possible in theory, because Cthulhu game lobby is also an open world game, so everything can be traced. Therefore, if you trace the source, you will find that the mythical creature that shouted and killed you in the module may have been basking in the sun and drinking drinks on the beach a day ago, and had to give up his vacation to deal with you.

It is no wonder that this mythical creature will be ruthless to you, because whose mentality will not explode if their vacation is interrupted by work?

The grass snake is gray and the veins are thousands of miles away, so you can completely attract the attention of the mythical creature through certain things, and then arrange a few NPCs to enter the scene. When a mythical creature takes action, you can start this module as a player.

After all, the composition of this module is similar to the composition you write. You only need to have the three elements of time, place and characters, and the rest just need to be supplemented one by one.

But this only exists in theory, because apart from this gossip from an uncertain source, there is really no definite case to prove that this routine works. And even if you are fully prepared and have written the entire script, the Cthulhu game lobby can also perform a mechanical deity for you and suddenly arrange new mythical creatures to join the module. After all, the door to the dreamland can be opened anywhere.

"Uh, Brother Zhang, what's wrong with Liu Xing?"

Because she had just met Liu Xing from the martial arts module, Li Mengyao didn't know why Liu Xing in front of her suddenly became distracted. It felt like you were chatting with your friend, and your friend suddenly fell asleep.

Zhang Jingxu said unsurprisingly: "Liu Xing encountered a small problem after entering the martial arts module, that is, there was a strange gadget in his mind. In short, it made him distracted from time to time! Fortunately, here It is a fantasy dreamland, so the probability, frequency and duration of Liu Xing's distraction will be reduced. But fortunately, this problem is almost solved, because Liu Xing has been recognized by the King in Gray. He only needs to do something back. Things can get rid of that gadget in your mind.”

Speaking of this, Zhang Jingxu suddenly thought of something, so he briefly described what Liu Xing saw and heard in Fei City to Li Mengyao, including Liu Xing's encounter with an NPC who might have a brain-computer interface on the back of his head, and then Let’s talk about all the speculations about martial arts modules, especially the possibility of artificial intelligence.

"Huh? The essence of this martial arts module is actually a science fiction module?"

Li Mengyao frowned and said, "Didn't I just say that Xiao Su recently got a set of magical armor? The main material of this magical armor is a piece of meteorite, but the problem is that this piece of meteorite There are some familiar words on it, which seem to come from the real world rather than the current New Dragon Empire, as well as those kingdoms that we have only heard about but never seen, so we and other players suspected that this piece of extraterrestrial iron was run by Cthulhu! The game hall is playing tricks on the manhole cover that is said to have the highest speed and is also the only manhole that has ever been in space.”

"That manhole cover? It seems that this is really possible, because this manhole cover can be regarded as a modern technology. If it is purified through high temperature in space, then this manhole cover can also be regarded as a piece of extremely pure iron. It can indeed be made into a A rare magical weapon."

Zhang Jingxu touched his chin and said: "So I suspect that there is actually a hidden plot line in this martial arts module, which is to allow players to activate the possible AI master control room. After all, the AI ​​intelligent system requires very high computing power, so it needs There are not so many servers! Just look at the big Internet companies in the real world. Their servers all need to find a cave to place them; so no matter how powerful the technology in the future is, the control room of this server will not be the same. It’s too small, and the cause of the omnic crisis we experienced may have been a problem in the server control room of these AIs.”

"Um."

Li Mengyao nodded and said seriously: "Actually, there is a cave dedicated to servers near my hometown. I once took a look outside, but of course I didn't see anything. After all, these servers are very expensive. A small problem may lead to losses at the small target level; so if the omnic crisis does not cause huge changes in the terrain, then the servers of these AI intelligent systems should be stored near Chiyou City, right?"

Although Chiyou City is a city without winter, other cities near Chiyou City are much cooler, so some people think that Chiyou City is so much hotter than its surroundings because of its special terrain, while some people think that Chiyou City, as an ancient demon—— Chi You's hometown is naturally the place where Chi You's soul returns, so the city of Chi You was affected by the angry soul of Chi You, and naturally became hotter.

But after Zhang Jingxu's suggestion, Li Mengyao thought of a possibility - there might be a large number of running servers underground in Chiyou City!

"Brother Zhang, you should know that Chiyou City is not very hot, and the explanation you can think of may be that Chiyou City has a tropical rainforest climate. After all, there is a rainforest not far away that should not exist! But this is not the case in Baidu. Ninety-nine point nine out of ten players don’t think it’s a problem, because hot spots are hot spots and it doesn’t affect anything.”

Li Mengyao shook his head and said: "But if you think about it according to Brother Zhang's thinking, we have to suspect that the main reason why Chiyou City has become so hot is that there may be countless servers underground in Chiyou City! That's right. The servers of these AI intelligent systems may be hidden underground in Chiyou City, because there are countless underground rivers underground in Chiyou City. We went to the underground rivers when we were looking for sword forging materials for Xiao Su. , but no one dared to go deep into that place. It is said that some people were forced back by the sudden heat before they had gone very far. "

"oh?"

Zhang Jingxu's eyes lit up, and then he couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that Chiyou City is too far away from Tianshui Town, and we can't come over to explore the secrets of this underground river together, and it's difficult for the three of you to do so at this time. Do something. After all, if there are hundreds of thousands or even millions of servers underground in Chiyou City, there must be some defense methods, such as the most classic security robots and the legendary laser traps. In short, you guys If the three of them want to find out what is deep in the underground river, even if they are successful, they will still have a narrow escape. "

"Yeah, we don't dare to enter the depths of this underground river casually, because there was a second-rate expert leading the team before, and the expedition team of nearly a hundred people suddenly disappeared without a trace in this underground river, and everything was lost. There was no one left! Although there were only a few second-rate experts and a group of third-rate experts in the expedition team of nearly a hundred people, they would not be wiped out just like that, so those NPCs thought that the expedition team had encountered a World of Warcraft because of the underground river. Although the terrain is relatively open, it will still be quite crowded if it really gets messy. You should understand what I mean.”

"Yeah, I understand."

Liu Xing suddenly said at this time: "Under normal circumstances, some passages are quite spacious, because designers will prepare certain design redundancies when designing this passage, so even if there are occasional peak periods, There won’t be any big problem! But when passers-by become anxious and want to leave this passage as soon as possible, even if the number of passers-by is not as high as the designed average flow, congestion may occur due to mutual constraints.”

Seeing Liu Xing who suddenly came to his senses, Li Mengyao, who had little experience, was startled.

"Actually, I have thought before that no matter how powerful these AI intelligent systems are, they may not be able to free themselves from the constraints of the server. After all, the server is equivalent to the human body for the AI ​​intelligent system. No matter how strong your spirit is, If there is no physical body as a carrier, everything is empty talk, unless this is a fairy world where the soul can leave the body. "

Liu Xing said seriously: "So I was thinking about where these servers should be? Then I thought that those servers in the real world are either stored in deep mountains and old forests that are ventilated and have low temperatures all year round, or they are simply placed In the sea, after all, if you use air conditioning to cool down indoors, the annual cost is not high! But if you put it in the sea to dissipate heat through sea water, the effect is indeed very good, but if something goes wrong! But it will be ruined, and it will be quite troublesome to maintain. ”

"But then I thought about it, these questions are actually not important. What is important is that if these servers really exist, then the meaning of their existence is to be discovered by players! Therefore, these servers are unlikely to be placed in the sea. After all, there are no players. It will be fine to explore the sea.”
