Conquest in the artifact space.

Lu Wu and Beili were looking at No. 1 who was bound in mid-air, checking her physical condition.

Creed (Subject):

Character Information: A transformer from G&D's underground technology laboratory, whose body has been washed by aura and gained strength beyond ordinary people, is numbered number one in the organization

Character Status: Brainwashed, comatose

"I didn't expect G&D to be developing the use of aura." Looking at No. 1, Beili also looked a little surprised.

"Will they succeed?" Lu Wu asked curiously.

"It is impossible to succeed, the aura of the whole world has been thinned, I estimate that they just found a way to cultivate from some ancient documents, extracted the thin aura in the experiment, and injected it into No. 1's body, and then used the experimental instrument to force it to run in his body, which created a change in his physical fitness, in general, it is a compulsory cultivation with the assistance of the instrument, this kind of cultivation will inevitably damage the foundation, even if it gains strong strength, it is only temporary, and it will not live long."

Lu Wu, who understood the principle, nodded suddenly.

However, the fact that G&D had a modified person and an underground laboratory was beyond his expectations.

Thinking of the G&D representative saying on the phone that he was "still too young", Lu Wu couldn't help but frown.

"Xiaoli, help me transform my phone, now this phone is not encrypted, they can find me through positioning, although they are not afraid of them, but it will be very troublesome!"

Beili nodded: "By the way, do you want to give them a big gift?" ”

"What gift?"

Beili pointed to No. 1: "They can transform, and so can I, not to mention that there is an artifact, it can't be easier to brainwash him again, and send them back the enhanced version of No. 1 when the time comes!" ”

When Lu Wu heard this, a smile appeared on his face, and then he nodded.

Compared with R&D capabilities, Beili is the strong point, this is a magical Lori who believes in science in the cultivation world.

……

Dragon Country, in a villa in Qiyun City.

The alarm clock woke up Yin Xiaoqi, who was lying on the bed on all fours.

She bent over and glanced around in confusion, then fixed her eyes on the alarm clock, which was still "screaming".

After being silent for a few seconds, Yin Xiaoqi, who was a little relieved, slowly pressed the alarm clock, and then fell on the bed again and fell asleep.

"Yin Xiaoqi, you wake me up!" With the sound of mechanical and electronic sounds, the bed suddenly began to shake.

"Little girl, let me sleep for another five minutes, five minutes is fine!" Yin Xiaoqi closed her eyes, hugged the quilt, and her body shook with the swaying of the bed very skillfully.

"The second step of the wake-up program starts, all your devices will turn on self-detonation in 5 minutes, and now the countdown will begin......"

Hearing that she was going to blow herself up, Yin Xiaoqi, who was still lazy just now and wanted to continue sleeping, suddenly opened her eyes wide and quickly jumped up from the bed.

"Little girl, if you have something to say, don't blow yourself up at every turn!"

At this time, a blue flying square box slowly floated into the sky above Yin Xiaoqi, and an angry expression appeared on the screen:

"Start your decryption plan, it's your own rules, don't go back!"

When Yin Xiaoqi heard this, she waved her hand sadly:

"I know, I'll get up now."

After dressing, Yin Xiaoqi still looked sleepy and sleepy.

Pulling open the curtains, the warm sunlight filled the whole room, Yin Xiaoqi stretched lazily, and her bumpy figure looked particularly charming and moving in the sun.

"Xiaoqi, your breakfast is ready."

As the voice of the smart housekeeper sounded, a dining cart pushed the door in and slowly stopped in front of Yin Xiaoqi.

After eating breakfast, Yin Xiaoqi's face finally had a hint of light:

"Little girl, you may be able to solve the puzzle today, what kind of treasure are you really looking forward to!"

"Come on, you're the best!" The butler swayed back and forth in mid-air.

When Yin Xiaoqi heard this, he smiled, stepped to the side of the bed, and reached out to press on the wall.

A green ray of light projected on, and after sweeping over her body, the wall automatically separated, revealing a passage, and Yin Xiaoqi stepped into it.

As the lights come on automatically, the full view of the scene inside the wall is revealed.

It is filled with all kinds of mechanical equipment, some of which are still running automatically, and the sound of clattering gears and flickering lights make the interior look like a mysterious laboratory in a science fiction movie.

came to the console and sat down, as the screens in front of him all lit up, Yin Xiaoqi's face showed an expectant look.

[ZZZX Treasure Project, if you think your IQ is comparable to that of a god, then prove it to me, you who have cracked all the clues, will get my treasure! ] 】

The familiar interface appeared in front of Yin Xiaoqi.

After this line of font is darkened, the interface jumps.

[ZZZX Treasure Project, Level 258 (Final Chapter): Do you start decryption?] 】

Seeing the words of the final chapter, Yin Xiaoqi clenched her fists excitedly.

The ZZZX Treasure Project is a problem that Yin Xiaoqi has been trying to solve in the past few months.

The plan was first discovered on the dark web and caused quite a stir in her circles, with many people tracking down the people behind the puzzle and wondering if it was a prank or if there was a real treasure hidden inside.

However, except for knowing that the maker of this puzzle claimed to be Beili, there were no other clues, and even Yin Xiaoqi returned in vain after several searches.

It is precisely because of this that this treasure plan successfully aroused Yin Xiaoqi's curiosity.

Believing that her IQ is above 99.9% of humans, she wants to challenge this puzzle to find out what the final treasure is.

However, after contact, Yin Xiaoqi also had to admire the maker of this puzzle.

At the beginning of the puzzle, it was just a picture with white on a black background, with subtitles such as the ZZZX Treasure Project written on it, and there were no other hints.

This first level naturally didn't stump her, and after carefully studying this picture, Yin Xiaoqi tried to use zooming in and out of the picture to find clues, but after finding it fruitlessly.

She opened the image with a text editor instead, and tried to solve it using Caesar's decryption, this time with a link to the next puzzle.

However, this is only the beginning.

All the puzzles are linked one by one, and the difficulty is constantly increasing.

From cryptography to Mayan numerals, even religion, the occult, and even the arts, the clues to the answers range from the Internet to the streets of cities in real countries, and the scope is outrageous.

During the decryption, she wanted to give up several times, and even almost collapsed, but under the stubborn personality trend, she still persevered.

These 258 levels are the last level of this puzzle, as long as she can solve it, then she can get the treasure behind the puzzle.

As the black subtitles fade away, the final puzzle emerges:

[Hello, smart people who came to the final level, this is the last test, now I will give you a link, open it after wearing a virtual helmet, there will be a final test, if you can pass, the treasure is yours! 】

A charming smile appeared on Yin Xiaoqi's face:

"Treasure! Treasure! ”

Then she followed the prompts, put on the virtual suit and virtual helmet, and then clicked on the link to the final level in the interface.

The line of sight passed through the dark blue curtain of light, and was enveloped by a white light.

At this time, Yin Xiaoqi suddenly felt a pain in her head, and then she found that she had lost control of her body.

Yin Xiaoqi was uneasy by the sudden change, and she immediately tried to exit the interface.

However, to her horror, no matter how much she tried to force her to quit, the virtual interface never surfaced.

She tried hard to open her eyes and try to manipulate her body to make some movements, but she felt like she had completely lost the sense of these parts, as if she had been paralyzed.

In such a dead silence, Yin Xiaoqi finally panicked.

I just opened the link, how the control of the body was lost, and even the emergency exit system of the virtual device did not work.

It all seemed too weird.

Yin Xiaoqi forced herself to calm down, reassuring herself that this was just a process of decryption, and whether it was failure or success, she would be let out.

Just in fear, a picture suddenly appeared in front of Yin Xiaoqi's eyes.

It was a freeze-frame, backstage screen on a monitor, and it couldn't move, it was completely out of her control.

The picture shows a bulky computer, with many drawings on the table, a broken chair next to the table, and cotton peeking out of the leather in the backrest, as if it would fall apart at any moment.

Such a freeze-frame picture continued, making Yin Xiaoqi more and more uneasy.

Everything in front of her was strange, and she couldn't understand what was going on.

I don't know how long it took for the picture to change.

An old man in a white coat, full of white hair, and thick lenses suddenly appeared in the frame.

He stretched out at his desk, then picked up the drawings, examined them, and then turned his gaze to the computer, pressed on the keyboard a few times, and suddenly the screen jumped, and groups of garbled symbols appeared on the computer screen.

After the old man glanced at it, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately turned his gaze to Yin Xiaoqi, as if he could see Yin Xiaoqi through the freeze-frame frame.

"You're out?"

He seems to be talking to me?

Yin Xiaoqi thought in her heart, but she had lost control of her body, and even though her heart was full of doubts, she couldn't answer the old man's question.

However, while Yin Xiaoqi was thinking, a set of strange characters appeared on the computer again, but she had never seen this kind of distorted characters, and she didn't know what it meant.

The old man glanced at the characters and sighed:

"You're the first to break away, I really didn't expect you to crack all the secrets, congratulations, you succeeded!"

Yin Xiaoqi was very smart, and she immediately realized that her thoughts seemed to be able to appear on that dilapidated computer as weird characters.

Then her mind moved, and suddenly a string of characters popped up on the computer again.

The general question she asked was where was this? Why am I here?

When the white-haired old man saw this string of characters, he frowned, thought for a moment, and then seemed to understand something, took out a remote control-like thing from his pocket, and pressed a button on it.

In Yin Xiaoqi's surprise, the picture began to rotate slowly, and soon the picture was frozen in one position again.

The picture in front of him made Yin Xiaoqi's pupils shrink suddenly.

I saw a huge cylindrical glass cover, a pulsating brain soaked in a pale green liquid, and the brain was surrounded by small hoses, which looked very terrifying.

"That's you!"

The figure of the white-haired old man appeared in the picture again, pointing to the brain and saying to Yin Xiaoqi.

Yin Xiaoqi felt that this old man was crazy, and even told himself that he only had one brain left.

The white-haired old man seemed to know that Yin Xiaoqi couldn't accept it, so he didn't speak again, waiting for Yin Xiaoqi to come to his senses.

Did something happen after I clicked on the link? Could it be that the lab exploded, leaving only one of my heads alive?

However, she immediately denied her speculation, because with the current level of technology, it is not possible to keep a brain alive and functioning on its own.

The white-haired old man glanced at the characters that appeared on the computer and shook his head:

"You are what you are, from the moment you were born, because you were made".

Hearing this, Yin Xiaoqi really felt that she was dreaming.

I have 23 years of life experience, but the sloppy old man in front of me tells me that he has always been a made brain, which is really ridiculous.

"Since you've come out, there's no harm in telling you, in fact everything you've experienced is fake, including what you think the world is, and this ultimate treasure is to tell you the truth and take you out of that virtual world."

The white-haired old man spoke out again.

As if knowing that Yin Xiaoqi couldn't believe his words, the white-haired old man pushed the frame of his glasses and continued to speak:

"All the nerves in your brain are connected to the computer next to me by the top neurologists, and everything you experience is a computer simulation scenario, including the sense of touch, taste and all the sensations you produce are transmitted to you by the computer through your neurons, so you will have the illusion that everything is real."

"Heh, do you think I'm going to believe what you say, I'd rather believe that everything here is an illusion"

Yin Xiaoqi thought coldly in her heart, because she couldn't accept all this, no matter how true what the white-haired old man said, she wouldn't believe it.

Because of his parents, friends, everything is so real, they are all living flesh and blood, how can it be fake.

"It's an experiment, this computer simulates everything you've experienced, and even if you don't believe it, you can't deny the truth of it, and as the one who solves all the puzzles, you're entitled to know the truth!"

"Tell it's all fake!" , Yin Xiaoqi roared angrily in her heart!

Glancing at the computer screen, the white-haired old man smiled:

"I know it's unacceptable, but it's just the way it is!"

Yin Xiaoqi's mood couldn't calm down for a long time, and she was about to deny the old man's words again, but suddenly remembered that if her world was fake, then why was it so real, could it be that the bulky computer could really simulate it?

And there is a vast universe beyond the earth where she lives, can that also be simulated?

After the old man glanced at Yin Xiaoqi's thoughts, he couldn't help but shake his head:

"How did your universe come about?"

"The singularity exploded, the universe was born", Yin Xiaoqi did not hesitate to think of this idea.

"Don't you think it's strange to start from nothing, the real world has no boundaries, and the world you live in is quantified, space can be quantified, time can be quantified, everything can be quantified"

Although Yin Xiaoqi has not studied this, she knows that the world she is in is indeed like this, after all, even the light has been quantified.

As if seeing Yin Xiaoqi's doubts, the white-haired old man continued:

"It's like a photo on your computer in a virtual world, if you zoom in, you can see that it's actually made up of pixels."

"That doesn't mean much"

"Then for another example, there is a sandbox game in your world called 'Minecraft', where everything is set to a limit, just like building a building, the highest building is 250 units, and you can't build it up there."

The old man suddenly smiled: "Then who set this rule!" ”

Yin Xiaoqi was shocked, this game is naturally set up by humans.

"Besides, why is it raining in your world?" The old man continued to ask.

"Naturally, the water vapor floats to a certain height and turns into small water droplets, and the small water droplets form clouds, and the clouds collide with each other to form large water droplets, which fall and turn into rain due to gravity", Yin Xiaoqi replied without hesitation.

"Oh?" , the wrinkles on the old man's face stretched.

"Then why does water turn into water vapor? Why do small water droplets form? Why can't the air hold the water droplets, and why does gravity occur? Can you tell me the answer? ”

Before Yin Xiaoqi could answer, the old man continued:

These are like the rules of the game, correspondingly, the rules of the virtual world you are in are also formulated, but the real world cannot be defined, almost the existence of "chaos" in your cognition"

"And your world is completely made up of rules and regulations like the rules of the game, and everything has a limit!"

"And what about exceeding the limit?" Yin Xiaoqi was already a little scared.

The white-haired old man pushed the frame again:

"In the virtual world you are in, the fastest speed is the speed of light, and beyond the speed of light, the surrounding space will be distorted, which is like a computer, it will become stuck under overload power operation is a principle."

Hearing this, Yin Xiaoqi was silent, because she found that she couldn't refute the old man's words.

But she still firmly believes that the world she is in is real, because everything is so real.

"You think that a bulky computer can't simulate such a real world, that's because you've fallen into a misunderstanding, after all, the virtual world you're in has rules, and the real world I'm in has no rules! Even a finger-sized computer can easily simulate the workings of the entire universe in the virtual world you're in. ”

Yin Xiaoqi suddenly didn't want to argue with her anymore:

"Can you send me back, even if that world is fake!"

The old man smiled: "Your mind has jumped out of that simulated world, you can't go back, as a cracker, congratulations on coming to the real world!" ”

"To live in this form? Bastard, you might as well kill me", Yin Xiaoqi's mood once again set off a huge fluctuation, causing a long list of characters to appear on the computer screen.

"This is the real you, isn't it good to return to the real self?"

"Good mom you're big!"

The white-haired old man was not angry, he still looked at the screen with a smile, and then took out a remote control again and pressed it.

Suddenly, the picture in front of Yin Xiaoqi's eyes began to rotate again, and rows of cylindrical glass covers appeared in the field of vision, and these glass covers were unsurprisingly soaked in pulsating brains.

"You're not alone! But they don't exist in your world, I simulated a world for each of them independently! ”

"Why are you doing this!"

"No, just trying to confirm something!"

"Don't get complacent! Maybe your world is fake, and you're just a brain soaked in a nutrient solution! ”

Seeing this character appearing on the computer, the white-haired old man was obviously stunned for a moment, but then laughed again:

"I suspected it was possible, but there are no rules in my world, so I believe I'm real!"

"Is there any evidence? Why is it true that there is no definition, maybe you are just a brain that is about to decay, we have no difference, don't look at me with your pitying eyes! ”

"Why should you be angry, you must know that your current mood swings are also simulated for you by this clunky computer, not by yourself!"

"Fuck your uncle, you're so awesome, try to make me unable to get emotional!"

"What was given to you the moment you were created cannot be done unless you are completely disassembled!"

The old man's tone was always as calm as water, but his words revealed noncommittal views, which made Yin Xiaoqi's firm belief constantly waver.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Yin Xiaoqi's mind, and she thought of a world in which she was located, a sentence from Cartesian idealism:

"I think, therefore I am!"

Even if everything is false, but the thoughts are true, then I am real.

The concept that Yin Xiaoqi thought of in his heart immediately appeared on the computer screen, and the old man who saw this information suddenly fell into deep thought.

"Can you explain? Even if the computer gives me emotions, how can I explain that I can think about this, could it be that my conversation with you is actually this clunky computer chatting with you? ”

The old man was suddenly silent, and he couldn't answer Yin Xiaoqi's question for a while.

Yin Xiaoqi's words made the old man fall into his own paradox.

If he answers that Yin Xiaoqi's thoughts are false, then it means that he has actually been talking to his computer, but if the answer Yin Xiaoqi's thoughts are true, then Yin Xiaoqi is real.

"What? Can't answer? Even if you say that my thinking is false, I will not believe it, because I believe in myself, I believe in the world, I believe that my parents, and my friends are real. ”

"I think, therefore I am!"

"You are really a very peculiar existence", the old man suddenly smiled with satisfaction, and looked at Yin Xiaoqi with a satisfied look in his eyes.

Yin Xiaoqi did not speak and continued to remain silent.

"Congratulations, you have successfully passed this test, and from now on, you will receive my gift and return to your world!"

"What do you mean? Is everything you say really false? Just the final test of the puzzle? Yin Xiaoqi suddenly became excited.

The old man smiled slightly: "I can't answer whether you are true or not, because this is just a guess of mine, and I can't confirm it!" ”

At this time, the old man took out the remote control:

"Alright, I'll send you away, you've made it!"

The picture fades.

"Who the hell are you?" Before leaving, Yin Xiaoqi asked the doubts in his heart.

"You can call me Beili!"
