War in Heaven

"So, you have received the hints unconsciously, plus the hypnosis of the other party, will become like that."

Zhou Tianhao, who just woke up, listened to Lin Chi’s explanation and reached out and held his forehead:

"That's it..." He gritted his teeth.

He was so busy every day that he did not notice the abnormal changes in his home. If you can be more sensitive, this time may not happen.

"Don't think too much, it's meaningless to regret now." Lin Chi looked down at Zhou Tianhao sitting on the sofa: "The urgent task now is to let the girl wake up."

If you rush in the connected state, it may damage the girl's consciousness. But as long as Zhou Tianhao's sister can be separated from the virtual world, it is completely a piece of cake to open the door of the game bin with Lin Chi's body.

"But we can't find the entrance to that virtual space." Zhou Tianhao lowered his head: "Unless the monster continues to hypnotize, he is not a fool..."

"Well, he probably won't hypnotize us again." Lin nodded.

With the last time I learned the lesson, I controlled the "monster" of Zhou Tianhao's sister. Maybe the game bin has been transferred to other places. Even if the game bin is still in the basement, they want to reconnect to the virtual world with Sophia and Black, which is hard to do.

However, if you can negotiate with those people...

Lin Chi gave orders to the Frankenstein to let him try to contact the "A" who had talked with Zhou Tianhao's sister, and then sat down on the sofa, picked up a can of iced cola taken out from Zhou Tianhao's refrigerator, and raised his head. One bite.

"Don't be too self-blaming." Lin Chi turned to look at the old classmate who was sitting down and downcast: "We still have hope."

“Is there really?” Zhou Tianhao slammed on the sofa: “Don’t comfort me, it’s all my fault...”

"I was serious."

Lin Chi’s voice has not fallen, and the Frankenstein has sent a message:

"Found him."

"So fast?" Lin Chi asked strangely.

"The other party may still be monitoring the building." Frankenstein replied: "He wants to talk to you."

"OK." Lin nodded and picked up the phone to go to Zhou Tianhao's bedroom.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Tianhao's voice is low.

"Wait for a while, I want to analyze some clues." Lin Chi casually said a reason, then turned back and closed the door.

Zhou Tianhao’s mood is still unstable. Now let the guy communicate with the enemy who is suspected of mastermind, and perhaps repeat the situation in the warehouse.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Lin Chi also chose to have a conversation with the other party:

Adding the other's friends from the Frankenstein, Lin Chi looked at the default black human figure, and entered a greeting: "Hello."

After one second, a black line appeared on the phone screen:

"I am looking at you."

"Well, I know." Lin Chi's reply was very calm.

"You are very nervous."

"This is not, my friend is very nervous." Lin Chi replied.

Even if he learned that he was being monitored, Lin Chi still had no panic. The upper body leaned against the wooden chair, and the legs were placed on the edge of the bed. He put on his comfortable posture and continued to chat with his mobile phone.

"You are not afraid." A sent a message.

“What can be scared?” Lin Chi replied: “Can you kill me?”

"Maybe really."

"Don't say this." Lin Chi ignored the threat of the other party and quickly entered the text: "I said, can you return the girl to us? You are kidnapping."

"She is part of our plan." The other person's answer is very honest: "You are the same."

"Abduction girl plan?" Lin Chi sarcastically.

"Our plan is much more great than that." A said: "Excuse me, you can't stop it."

"In this case, how about letting us join? I also want to go to the world to see." Lin Chi sent a message.

As long as you can enter that virtual world, you may be able to find the hope to let the girl out. But as Lin Chi expected, the other party obviously will not agree so easily:

"You are not in the invitation."

"Then you still monitor what we do?" Lin Chi asked.

"No comment."

Realizing that the other party was not so easy to be fooled, Lin Chi thought about it and sent another message:

"I know who you are."

"You don't know anything." A's reply seems to be ridiculous.

"You are the 'Oasis Army.'" Lin Chi said his own speculation.

"..."

The other party sends an ellipsis and the avatar is grayed out.

"Is it right?" Lin Chi continued typing: "I will tell you another news. I also know where 'Masalah' is."

——According to the “legacy” of Masjira, continue to attack the players, it should be the Oasis Army is right.

After Lin Chi sent this message, A’s avatar lights up again:

"who are you?"

"People." Lin Chi gave a perfunctory answer.

"you are lying."

"If you want to know, let us join the game?" Lin Chi put forward the conditions: "It seems that you can temporarily block human memory. If we shield our memory, we will not make any noise. By the way, there are more experimental products, don't you think about it?"

"I will talk to my partner."

After saying this, A's picture was darkened again.

"now it's right……"

Lin lately picked up the phone and went back to the garbage-filled living room, just in time to meet Zhou Tianhao who just stood up.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Tianhao seems to be still skeptical.

"I talked with the mastermind." Lin Chi's answer was very refreshing.

"You kid..." Zhou Tianhao clenched his fists.

Seeing that Zhou Tianhao was about to attack, Lin Chi said quickly: "Don't worry, he will contact me on his own initiative. After all... our conditions have been discussed."

"What did you say to him?" Zhou Tianhao asked.

"Nothing." Lin Chi took the problem and then suddenly said: "I probably know what they are going to do."

Speaking of this topic, Zhou Tianhao clenched his teeth: "It’s a **** human test..."

"No, I don't think that's their main purpose." Lin Chi shook his head: "The experiment is only incidental. Their purpose should be 'retaliation' and 'entertainment'."

"What do you mean?" Zhou Tianhao stared at him with a frown.

Upon hearing Zhou Tianhao’s problem, Lin Chi sat down on the sofa, picked up the cola that had just been half-drinked, and began telling the story of the worried man:

"I used to meet someone in a virtual game. He is the product of the system bug, never dies, even if killed, will be revived soon."

"The horror is that although he will not die, his body will still age. As time goes by, his body has become weak and unimaginable due to aging. The whole person is like a cloak with human skin. ""

"One day, this person learned about the existence of the 'real world' in which we live. He sadly discovered that his life is in the eyes of our players, but it is useless plaything."

"This angered old man decided to retaliate against real-world players. He used some means to turn some of the players he had contacted with him into irrational madmen..."

As soon as this was said, Zhou Tianhao suddenly opened his eyes: "Are you talking about 'the hallucinogen'?"

"Now, the old man has been imprisoned and can no longer retaliate against society. But he also has a dangerous army called the 'Oasis Army.'"

Speaking of this, Lin Chi coughed: "The next part is my inference. I don't have any definitive evidence: the Oasis Army may be like the old man and intends to retaliate against the humans who took them for fun. But the Oasis Army The way to choose is not to make people crazy, but to treat their own people with their own ways."

"What do you mean?" Zhou Tianhao's voice was hoarse.

“The meaning is that the Oasis Army may try to treat us human beings as 'entertainment objects' like real-world players.”

"I don't understand." Zhou Tianhao looked gloomy: "Can you explain it specifically?"

"This is just my speculation." Lin Chi put the empty bottle aside: "I was thinking, if I was the NPC in the game, after learning the truth. Maybe I would also choose this kind of revenge - the real world The humans in the world are tricked into the virtual world, and then tampering with these human memories, turning these people who are originally players into the 'players' of the NPCs."

"What do you mean... NPC started to 'play' humans?" Zhou Tianhao finally understood.

"I think so." Lin nodded.

If Zhou Tianhao’s sister’s experience is really what the Oasis Army is doing, combining the various strange things before and the dialogue with A, this is the conclusion that Lin Chi can draw.

- Unlike Maschera, the "Oasis Army" chose a more retaliatory approach, but it was unusually ironic.

As people often say a few decades ago: "You are playing games, don't let the game play you." The girl who is still lying in the strange metal warehouse may be "played by the game". State!

"This can't be true!" Zhou Tianhao irritated and kept shaking his head: "It's ridiculous..."

The NPC in the game began to treat real humans as playthings, which sounds strange. but……

"I also hope that my inference is wrong."

Lin Chi smiled and said: "But if this is the case, our chances may be even bigger."

“So what's the chance we have?” Zhou Tianhao almost shouted: “Want to ask those NPCs to let go of my sister?”

"The NPCs who are revenge should still want to find more 'toys'." Lin Chi explained: "I have already proposed to join the game. If we can enter the 'world' again, we will have the opportunity to take your sister to escape. Yes, right?"

Having said that, this plan is obviously still very dangerous. Zhou Tianhao also immediately began to refute:

"Are you sure we can go in and leave? My ‘dream’ is exactly the same. I really thought I was a **** ‘Black!’ If we go in, maybe we can’t come back again!”

"That is because you have been accepting a long-term psychological suggestion, it will be so easy to be hypnotized. Don't forget, my family does not have a computer screen with hints." Lin Chi said.

"In short, this is still ridiculous..." Zhou Tianhao reached out and grabbed his hair: "Just the game character... can you really do this kind of thing?"

Seeing that the guy has begun to doubt life, Lin Chi did not continue to speak, just picked up the phone and used words to contact the Frankenstein:

"Can you confirm that this phone is not being monitored?"

"I'm pretty sure." The cold girl voiced in the in-ear headphones: "Their technology is not worth mentioning in front of me."

"OK, I need a contact that is not being monitored." Lin Chi quickly entered the text.

"But what you just said was heard by them," Frankenstein said.

"That was intentional."

Lin Chi took a picture of Zhou Tianhao’s shoulder while typing, and asked, “Would you like to go out together?”

"I am not in the mood..." Zhou Tianhao frowned.

"So you need to be distracted."

Lin Chilian dragged Zhou Tianhao out of the dirty apartment, dragged him into the fireproof staircase, stood in the corner of the camera directly below the camera, and whispered, "You didn't bring your mobile phone over?"

"Still on the sofa..." Zhou Tianhao said with no anger: "What are you doing?"

"Your home is being watched by the Oasis Army." Lin Chi said, looking back at the stairs and said: "We should have heard them in the living room."

"Then why do you want to say? Are you stupid?" Zhou Tianhao's face is strange.

"I want them to hear those words." Lin Chi's answer is clear and concise: "Don't say this first, it's not safe for us to rely on us. We need some reinforcements."

Recalling the threatening words of the other party in the warehouse, Zhou Tianhao immediately said: "Can't call the police, otherwise she will be dead..."

"Well, what we need is someone who is in this city, who knows very well about virtual games, is willing to lend a helping hand, and has a strong will and will not be easily hypnotized." Lin Chi stared at Zhou Tianhao: "You know such people." ?"

Even if it is a secret operation, it is too dangerous to rely on them alone. In addition to the Frankenstein, Lin Chi needs the assistance of others.

"You are too demanding..." Zhou Tianhao lowered his head in a powerless way: "Can such a person really find it?"

"I have a friend here to help. But it is not in this city, only remote assistance through electronic devices." Lin Chi said: "For safety reasons, it is better to find someone better. If you have a trusted colleague Calling for help is fine."

"They are very busy right now." Zhou Tianhao sighed: "I am also very hard to get a short vacation, and finally I don't have to contact those people every day..."

Having said that, Zhou Tianhao suddenly raised his head, and in the eyes of the godless, he finally reappeared with a glimmer of glory:

"Maybe someone can help us."
