Spy Family

Lu Linbei "returned" to the Longitude, and the towering tall buildings in the distance were enough to prove this.

He was not in an upper-level hotel or a rented house in the middle-level, but standing on an empty street. The road was in a mess, vehicles were overturned, batteries were ignited, and broken robots were everywhere, like The forest that had just been cut down was left with wooden piles.

There were human corpses everywhere, almost none of them intact. They were either torn into pieces or crushed into several pieces. Even though he knew that these were fictitious characters, Lu Linbei still felt nauseated, especially when he thought that this scene was really real. Might happen in future reality.

There are no players on the street.

He turned around and saw the grand entrance hall.

He was sent to the lower area.

This was a plan set up by Li Tingguan and Bao Haisheng. Lu Linbei walked towards the hall without hesitation, his steps becoming more and more relaxed and his mood getting more and more excited.

Although the chip was moved to his wrist, he could still feel the direct stimulation of the game - it came from the ring on his head, which was greatly reduced in intensity, but not completely disabled.

Entering the hall, he heard chaotic shouting.

Deep in Ship Harbor, the battle rages on.

Lu Linbei saw more and more robots with various shapes. There were common service robots, either square or round, with hollow bodies. There were also many special robots that would not show up at ordinary times. Their appearance was not like humans at all, but more like They are multi-legged insects, as small as a fist, and as large as four or five meters long.

At first, Lu Linbei thought these robots were defenders and wondered where the players had gone. But he soon realized that the robots were players and they were simulating an attack.

Li Tingguan must have reached a temporary agreement with the management of the Jingwei. He will no longer send players to occupy the robots in exchange for the smooth network of the Jingwei and his own safety.

But players can't always crowd in the square to listen to Bao Haisheng's speech. They need stronger stimulation, and Li Tingguan also needs the "warriors" to master how to control the robot.

So he created a false Longitude and Latitude, sent a large number of players into virtual robots, and encouraged them to rebel, massacre "human beings", and attack the ship port.

This is a military exercise.

Lu Linbei came to the depths of the ship harbor and saw the defenders.

"Humans" have been pushed to a dead end. They have many weapons. Their biggest weakness is that they only have one body. Robots do not have this problem. If one is shot down, the player inside can instantly transfer to another robot without having to Worried about safety, I kept moving forward and never took a step back.

The player army has matured very quickly, and has evolved some simple tactics from fighting alone. The solid and bulky industrial robots are at the forefront, and the numerous commercial robots follow closely with the stolen weapons. Simple-structured services The robots act as rangers, searching for targets everywhere and controlling multiple robots at the same time as backup.

Players are also progressing rapidly. They initially could only control robots that were most similar to humans. Now there are a group of players who are skilled in driving multi-legged machines and even command dozens of them at the same time.

As the only "humanoid" on the offensive side, Lu Linbei wondered why he was not suspected. It was not until he passed a smooth wall that he saw the silhouette reflected in it turned out to be a barrel-shaped service robot.

And he always thought he was "walking", but he was actually gliding.

Once he noticed the change in form, Lu Linbei immediately became clumsy and didn't know how to move forward, so he could only spin in circles.

An insect robot that had just changed its carrier passed by and made a harsh sound, "Newbies, rush forward. You will get the hang of it after dying a few times."

The robot stretched out an arm and hooked the "novice" to move forward together.

Lu Linbei was brought to the front line.

The defenders had very few troops left. Although they were virtual characters, their reactions to the environment were almost the same as real humans: fear and despair. Because they didn't even have a chance to surrender, they became even more reckless and shot the light at all costs. Bullets from the gun, throwing high-explosive shells in vain, and even stepping out from behind obstacles to face the attack.

Lu Linbei was first riddled with bullets and then smashed into pieces by a high-explosive bomb.

He didn't have to do anything. He was automatically transferred to another robot, which was still a service type.

He didn't think about his own form, just pretending that he was still in human form, walking with "steps" and running with "legs raised". He quickly adapted and glided very fast.

The battle has come to an end, and humanity's last line of defense has been breached. The robot army cheers and disperses, looking for the hiding humans and killing them all.

Lu Linbei really wanted to "grab" a robot and ask: Aren't you a resident of the Longitude and Latitude? Were your family and friends among the massacred humans?

But this is just a game, and those players probably thought so too, so they didn't show any hesitation or sympathy when they took action.

When players enter the body of a robot in the real world and seek stronger stimulation, can they still distinguish the difference between reality and fiction? Can recognition of human identity ever be restored? Lu Linbei remembered what Li Tingguan said: He holds the power to define reality and reality.

Lu Linbei originally thought that he would be sent directly to Chen Manchi, but now he was a little unsure.

There are several spaceships parked outside the port, connected by slender passages, and robots swarm in, searching for loot.

The first batch of robots came out of the passage, shouting in unison, or singing: "Found, found, the most beautiful reward; destroy it, destroy it, the only dream; come out, come out, our paradise... …”

Ru Hongshang was held up in the air by a tall robot with several arms. She was paralyzed with fear, but her beauty was not diminished at all. Moreover, she looked like she did when she was young, the dream of countless people.

Lu Linbei's "heart" trembled slightly. The young and helpless Ru Hongshang became more similar to Chen Manchi.

A large number of robots gathered and joined in the chorus. The tall robot threw Ru Hongshang. At the place where she was about to fall, more than a dozen robots jumped up and fought for it. If they couldn't jump, they stretched out their arms as much as possible. If they didn't have arms, they used whatever was on the top to greet her... …

Ru Hongshang was like a baseball being thrown into the audience, quickly losing its vitality, but the robot's enthusiasm grew stronger and stronger, and continued to throw her body, even if it was broken into pieces.

This is Li Tingguan's revenge on Ru Hongshang.

Two more teams of robots came out of other spaceships. The first team was surrounded by a ball of light. It was just a ball of light. It was so bright that it was absolutely unbearable for human eyes, but it was incredibly beautiful to the robots. They abandoned the broken robots. Toys, stop singing and line up to meet the light.

Lu Linbei was also moved by the light and felt excited, as if he had been waiting for this light for countless years and finally got what he wanted.

Although he knew it was Zhao Didian.

This is also one of the contents of the exercise. Many players have been subtly influenced in the game. When they enter the reality to control the robot in the future, they will take the same route to meet the light in their hearts.

The light completely obscured what was being escorted by the other team of robots until the light entered the open space and stopped.

Lu Linbei saw Chen Manchi. He had been prepared for it, but he still couldn't control his emotions. It was like being burned or pricked by needles. Even if he had done 10,000 mental preparations in advance, he still couldn't stop the panic on the spot.

Chen Manchi was in a sleeping state, and was pushed out together with the sleeping box. The lid of the box had been removed, and she was lying inside, like a deceased person being sent to the cemetery.

"Fusion..." said a robot.

"Fusion." A group of robots shouted in unison.

"Fusion!" all the robots shouted loudly.

Lu Linbei couldn't bear it anymore. Even if it was an illusion, even if it was a conspiracy, he still couldn't watch Chen Manchi being treated as a "sacrifice".

He knocks away the robots in his way and rushes towards his target.

Faced with the crazy attacks of its kind, the robots were confused at first, and then quickly launched a counterattack, shouting the word "traitor" in unison.

The service robot was nothing but hollow, with only a thin layer of protection, and was quickly torn into pieces.

Lu Linbei entered another backup robot. It was his choice. It was taller, bigger, and stronger. He was not yet able to control it skillfully. He was stumbling when running and would lose his balance at any time. However, this did not affect his fighting spirit, nor did it affect his ability to fight. Affecting the combat effectiveness, he rushed into the group of robots and crushed them all the way.

But he was not the only powerful robot. He was quickly stopped by two robots of the same type, and several more were coming.

This is just a game, Lu Linbei said to himself.

But you have to win, Lu Linbei said to his heart.

He destroyed countless robots and was dismantled and crushed several times.

Players are "reborn" over and over again, accumulating anger and arousing more excitement, thinking this is more interesting than killing humans.

Lu Linbei was only angry because he could not break through the iron wall made of robots. On the other side, Chen Manchi had been sent into the light and was "merging".

Li Tingguan does not understand the true meaning of "fusion", let alone the specific process, but as a director, he knows how to visualize a complex concept to arouse the audience's emotions.

This is just a game, Lu Linbei said to himself again, jumping high, far beyond the limit of the robot, landing hard, knocking away a large group of enemies, and then jumping again, higher and farther, in just three times. Jumping above the light, leaning down and rushing down, he quickly approached. The robot's camera penetrated the strong light and looked directly at Chen Manchi at the core...

The moment he was about to enter the light, he was dragged out. Even if he understood the rules, stimulated his potential, and worked hard, he was still vulnerable in front of the game managers.

He returned to the square.

Bao Haisheng said happily: "That's the mood."

Li Tingguan said calmly: "Only the control center can give you the power to dominate the game, and maybe she is really on the ship."

Square, lobby, square, stairs, square, control room... The same repetitive process is repeated again, each time staying for a shorter time, and the game evolves faster than the control center's protective measures.

He came to the server again.

The scene is illusory, but as long as he reaches out and touches the server, he can enter reality.

The experience was illusory, but all the emotions he had just been aroused were real.

Lu Linbei has lost his ability to distinguish. Without the protection program to block it, the slight stimulation of the brain by the ring can also set off a storm.

Even in the game, I have to save her.

Lu Linbei entered the control center. This time he had a clear goal. The massive data seemed to him like an ocean. There was no need for filtering or resistance. He could swim in it and create a fleeting path.

He found the game data and easily erased the light. After a moment's hesitation, he also erased Chen Manchi, telling himself that it was just a bunch of data.

He changed the route, retrieved ship port data, and checked the passenger status of each spacecraft, hoping to find real clues.

"Kick the player out of the game, quickly, do it immediately, this is the only chance." A voice said.

Lu Linbei thought it made sense, but he didn't want to "take action immediately". He first wanted to confirm whether Chen Manchi was on a certain ship.

The illusory game created by data can be easily erased, but real emotions cannot. Lu Linbei is still dominated by it.
