"This is Grizzly City TV No. 1, and now there's an urgent news on the air."

"The senior management of Ambrera has just met with Mr. Mayor. The company said it strongly condemned the recent irresponsible rumors that had been circulated in the city. ”

Before the camera pans to the city hall, Manager B is being interviewed.

"This is a shameless rumor-mongering. Ambrera is a pure biologics and chemicals company, and all claims about gold, are fake, fake! Please don't believe it! ”

"Then may I ask Mr. Manager, why didn't your company come out to refute the rumors in the first place?"

"Because it's ridiculous! Gold... I've been working here for over a decade and I've never seen any gold! If you don't believe me, we'll open the underground lab, and anyone who wants to see it can come and see it! ”

The camera cuts back to the TV station.

Mr. Mayor also expressed his condemnation of the rumor-mongers. At the same time, he expressed his appreciation for Ambrera's willingness to open the underground laboratory for public representatives to visit. It is reported that representatives of the public are being screened, and they will enter the underground laboratory rumored to be a gold production base at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning for a tour. ”

......

"Damn it!"

Seeing the news that was completely inconsistent with his requirements, Tang Xiaoxiao scolded angrily and threw the clown mask aside.

She stood up and walked around the room a few times. "He doubted me? Or is something else going on? ”

Why now? Why is the mayor electing someone to visit? Why is it different from what I requested?

Zhu Cunka put down the pistol and comforted her a few words.

"It's already this time, it doesn't matter. It is estimated that the company has also put pressure on the TV station. ”

"It's just that we need to work a little harder. Gotta keep an eye on the exit and see what they've taken away. ”

"Did you see that?"

When Yang Wentian saw the news, he ran to Wang Luo as soon as possible. As a result, as soon as he opened the door, he found that Wang Luo's house was already in a mess, and the room was full of paper balls.

"What is this going on?"

"If you have an idea, write whatever you want." Wang Luo raised his pen. "What did you say?"

"TV." Yang Wentian turned on the TV. "One broadcast the news that Ambrera had opened its underground laboratory for representatives of the public to visit."

"Eight o'clock tomorrow morning?" Wang Luo lowered his head and wrote something again.

"Yes, the mayor did what you asked. What do we do tomorrow? ”

"Just get to the door at 8 o'clock." Wang Luo crumpled the half-written paper into a paper ball and threw it out. "After we complete the mission, can the rewarded Universal Points be exchanged for real-world currency?"

"Yes, gold and all kinds of currencies are fine."

"How's the purchasing power?"

"About 10 universal points can buy a kilogram of gold. Real-world wealth is worthless in the scene. ”

"So," Wang Luo's eyes shone with a certain light. "The growth of generic points in the later period is very high. After passing certain difficulties, it is possible to score tens of thousands of points per game. ”

"There are such people." Yang Wentian thought back to the price of high-level equipment in the space market and made an affirmation. "There are hundreds of thousands, millions of them."

"And how much gold can you get for all this? If someone were to exchange a few hundred tons of gold, or hundreds of billions of dollars at a time, what would be the real-world impact? The real world doesn't issue that much, and after a similar shock, will it still recognize the currency exchanged in this world? ”

"Thisβ€”" Yang Wentian spread his hands. I don't know. I've never seen anyone do anything like that. ”

"If this really happens and there is an imbalance in the real world, is there anything space can do about it? Also, according to the information given by space, our body is digitized, so can this digitized body, combined with ordinary women in the outside world, have children? If so, will the child born be a digital body, or an ordinary person's body? ”

I probably know what's written in the room full of papers..."You ask me, and I don't know... Haven't seen it, haven't thought about it. Yang Wentian looked at the overly curious teammate in front of him a little helplessly.

"Like the people here? Is it because of the joy of being able to venture out in a new world, and forget about anything else? Are you accustomed to your environment and are not interested in its essential causes? "Wang Luo sometimes frowned, and sometimes he worked hard to write." Is it the space that changes people's bodies and influences their thinking patterns? Automatically causing a shift in their thinking when they're thinking about something like that? Or is there no room to think about these things under intense pressure? Or do pleasures provide so much temptation that they don't have enough energy to think about it? ”

"Spiritually, what prevents them from taking advantage of the differences between the two different spaces in other ways? What is the purpose of setting such a scene in this space? People spend the scene in it, what kind of benefits can it have? Is it entertainment? Or are you experimenting? ”

"What kind of criteria does it use to select participants? What qualities will be more likely to be favored by it and get into it? What kind of energy does it use to bring people in? And what is it to bind people and prevent their own information from leaking out? By killing? It's just hilarious. There are simply too many people who are not afraid of death and can be used. ”

"Hypothetical."

"Suppose this is also a real world, and suppose the people in it are living people like the world I was in. So what is the material basis on which they were born? Is it another planet? Outside of this scene, there have been places with the same history as the earth, and are there countries with the same earth? They were here before I left, and after I left, they will continue to live as well, right? ”

"What kind of experiments can prove or disprove these hypotheses?"

"It's so embarrassing..."Yang Wentian smiled bitterly when he saw Wang Luo like this. I may have met a fake traverser. ”

Wang Luo raised his head and looked at Yang Wentian. "Has anyone done anything like me before?"

"At least I haven't." Yang Wentian shook his head. "Maybe it's all obliterated by space?"

"It's not impossible." Wang Luo tapped the table with his right index finger. "Actually, when I made assumptions, I was ready to be erased. The problem is that everyone who comes here can think about these questions inadvertently, and if everyone who thinks of these people is wiped out, then this space will be dead. ”

"That's right."

"Well, at least for now, we can draw a conclusion: the rules that bind us are by no means simple." Wang Luo picked up the pen and wrote down this on the remaining piece of paper. "The harvest of discussion is much more than that of one person."

"Forget it." Yang asked the sky and bared his teeth. "Like you said before: when you stare into the abyss, the abyss will also stare at you. It's better to make sure you survive first, and then research these when you have the money. ”

"Habit, habit." Wang Luo smiled --- like a child discovering a new toy. "If you survive under great pressure, when you are concentrating, then what you do at that time will merge with your soul and become instinctual. When the time comes? Got a lot of money? ”

"At that moment, I shouldn't remember anything else but enjoyment."?
