1125 Is This Even Possible?
However…Ideas were beautiful, but reality was often cruel.
Lu Zhou spent an entire afternoon in his laboratory, trying to grind through the “Void Memory b” game.
However, his efforts were to no avail.
Especially the drone part, he even began to wonder if the memory ended there? What if his character died in the gun battle, and that was the end of the Void Memory.
Just like when he grabbed a Rubik’s cube from the Void Memory a, the memory was instantly cut off. He didn’t even have a chance to study the cube in depth.
He tried many ways of fighting in combat.
For example, shooting his teammates in the spacecraft in an attempt to gain control over the spacecraft or leaving his team when he got off the elevator. Basically, events that didn’t follow the main plotline.
However, the results were quite tragic.
The first time he tried to raise his rifle at his teammates, he was instantly pushed to the ground by one of the other soldiers. The other time was even worse. After leaving his team, he was tracked by the positioning device on his exoskeleton. He was soon shot dead by the tall and well-built captain.
Yeah, so that was the end of that.
He was shot in public; they didn’t even give him a chance to go to court. He couldn’t help but wonder about what kind of alien rights the advanced civilization had.
After thirty attempts, Lu Zhou was so over this torture.
However, his attempts weren’t useless.
While chatting with his teammates, he was able to gain a rough understanding of this “game”.
Basically, he was part of a species called “Calan”.
He also learned about the origin of the Ring world.
Just like he had guessed, after a series of wars and conflicts, the Calans destroyed all of the planets in the solar system and spent 300 years to build a ring around a habitable zone. The creation of this circular residential belt was the beginning of the utopia.
Even though the Calans spent 300 years building the utopia, not all Calans had the chance to live a utopian life.
After the Ring world was built, the Empire’s territory began shrinking. However, there were still a few mining and agricultural planets that provided the raw materials needed for industrial manufacturing.
Because of the political and economical inequality, living on the “Ring” was a dream for many farmers and miners.
It was similar to people in Detroit wanting to move to NYC…
That was Lu Zhou’s understanding.
As for the Oracle, the soldiers didn’t know much either. After countless respawns, Lu Zhou had talked to all 25 soldiers other than Commander Ince. He knew the personality and character of each soldier, but he wasn’t even able to learn a single name.
As for why he didn’t talk to Ince…
In fact, Lu Zhou wanted to talk to him, but the commander completely ignored him…
There was obviously a class disparity among the Calans.
The commander was far more friendly to the scholar than the soldiers.
“I can’t…” Lu Zhou took off the helmet for the 31st time and gave up. He looked at the ceiling and sighed. “We have to do something else.”
Even though the “game” was fun, after failing 31 times in a row, he was totally bored out of his mind.
Xiao Ai: [Master, are you okay? (T_T)]
“I’m fine.”
Lu Zhou grabbed his chin and contemplated it for a while. His eyes suddenly lit up as he spoke.
“Wait a minute!”
Xiao Ai: [What? 0.0]
“Let the Respawn Team play for me!”
Lu Zhou put the helmet aside and stood up from the chair.
“Since it’s just a game, we should leave it to the pros.”
Lu Zhou happened to know a player. Even though he wasn’t the best player on the planet, he could persevere through anything. He could lie down on the virtual reality device for an entire day and never give up.
Not to mention because of the Master God project from Star Sky Technology, he could easily find enough manpower.
If the Respawn Team couldn’t defeat the game, he could release the game as a public beta test!
He didn’t worry about the secret leaking out.
After all, this was just a “video game”.
No matter how serious the players took the game, they would never think of the game as being real.
Not to mention there might be someone that could extract additional information from the game.
Even if an accident happened, with Xiao Ai watching closely, Xiao Ai could easily repair any damages.
After Lu Zhou made up his mind, he left the laboratory. He returned to the surface and made a call to Chen Yushan. He told her about the new experiments.
After that, Lu Zhou stretched his back and sat in his office chair.
The sun was about to set. He was going to call Wang Peng when he suddenly received a call.
Lu Zhou saw that Professor Tang was the one calling.
Without hesitating, he picked up the phone and placed it next to his ear.
“Hello?”
“Lu Zhou, what are you doing?”
Lu Zhou smiled and spoke.
“I just finished work, what’s up?”
Professor Tang spoke awkwardly.
“Nothing special, I just wanted to ask if you were coming to campus tomorrow?”
Lu Zhou felt a little weird. He paused for a second and spoke.
“I should go, but not sure when… If you need anything, you can just tell me.”
However, it seemed like Old Tang didn’t want to talk about this over the phone.
“Let’s wait until tomorrow. When you’re on campus, remember to call me… Don’t worry, it’s nothing bad, we’ll talk in person.”
Lu Zhou: “…?”
Lu Zhou felt like he didn’t believe Old Tang.
His intuition told him that Old Tang needed something from him…
…
Ever since Duan Siqi joined the “Respawn Team”, he felt like his life was twice as exciting as before.
He wasn’t just saying that, that was what he truly believed.
The reason for this came from the Master God plan.
In other words, the so-called Master God plan was to create an intelligent program for the Phantom server that could automatically model movie scenes into the virtual reality world. It could use movies and TV shows to build a complete virtual reality world.
The task of the Respawn Team was to participate in the plot of the films as the protagonist or as a third-party member. They had to complete various tasks and discover loopholes in the virtual world.
Basically, they were training the artificial intelligence algorithm.
According to the researchers, the goal of the experiment was to improve the artificial intelligence system responsible for generating worlds for the Phantom server. This way, accidents such as the forest zombie incident wouldn’t happen again.
Regardless of whether their work was effective or not, Duan Siqi felt like the experiments were quite interesting.
From Resident Evil to The Chronicles of Narnia, from Harry Potter to Batman, he had played the role of policeman, soldier, and even a magician.
He could still remember the joy of shooting the zombies or waving his magical wand…
He knew that if they could get around the copyright issue, these games would sell through the roof and make players around the world go crazy.
Of course, what Star Sky Technology planned on doing with this technology had nothing to do with him.
However, he had wanted to start his own game company…
Star Sky Technology virtual reality research institute.
Because today was an experiment day, the break lounge was packed with people.
Before the experiment began, the members of the Respawn team were discussing what today’s world might be.
The lounge door opened, and a tall and well-built man walked in.
“The new experiment plan is here.”
Duan Siqi looked up and spoke curiously.
“Which movie are we in this time?”
“Not a movie.” Li Gaoliang shook his head and said, “This is an original script.”
Original script?
Whispers were heard in the lounge.
Most people looked intrigued.
Prior to this, the worlds they entered were all generated by an artificial intelligence algorithm, based on movies and TV shows.
Even though the worlds were interesting, they had all seen the movies and TV shows before. Even though it was fun to watch and act as the characters, there were no surprises in the plot.
Having an original script made things more interesting.
People were curious about how advanced the artificial intelligence algorithm was, thanks to their efforts. How close were they to an open beta?
Li Gaoliang looked at the crowd and spoke in a serious manner.
“This mission is said to be extremely difficult, I hope you take it seriously. Academician Lu is telling you to prepare, the experiment is going to begin in ten minutes.”
Despite Li Gaoliang warning them, none of the testers looked nervous. Instead, they were full of excitement and anticipation.
Duan Siqi was the same. He was used to Li Gaoliang’s exaggerated words.
He had no idea what “extremely difficult meant”.
That wasn’t until when the first experiment began, where he was rained on with energy beams.
F*ck sake…
