I give the world destruction and new life

Chapter 114 From now on you listen to me

Cornes couldn't give any useful information, and Tang Ji didn't plan to get any useful information from him tonight.

With his education background and experience, he didn't realize that he had a lot of useful information. At this time, Tang Ji needed Dr. Wu Qianying to dig deep from Cones.

For example, where did the group of them find the body?What was the physical condition of the body at the time?

This can determine how far she walked alone after leaving the group, and drawing a circle with this radius can roughly calculate where she started from.

Many details are hidden in the dark, and Koness does not have the eyes and command to discover the details, but fortunately, he only needs to have memory, and Dr. Wu Qianying can find the truth instead of him.

The same is true for the mysterious phone calls that Cornes received. Someone helping them in the dark must have a plan, but this requires careful analysis to reach a final conclusion. Tang Ji is not competent for this kind of brainstorming.

For a long time, Tang Ji's revenge against Losas was blind, until the concept of players appeared, so Tang Ji had to try to use his brain to think about the way out in the future.

Before that, Tang Ji thought that money and the Lazarus Group could serve as Tang Anran's protective umbrella, but with the emergence of players and superhumans, this umbrella became no longer safe.

Today, they can send a player into the prison to assassinate themselves, and tomorrow they can follow the clues to find Wu Qianying's laboratory!

After realizing that the war had escalated, Tang Ji's heart was no longer calm. He and the Lazarus Group did a lot of work to hide Tang Anran's existence this year.

However, it is an indisputable fact that the player forces have the absolute upper hand on the Internet. The gray-black flame kept expanding from Tang Ji's palm and was extinguished by him again.

Perhaps it would be a better choice to send Tang Anran to the Prophet's underwater base. Tang Ji thought of the heavily guarded base and those lazy members of the Ark organization, and finally shook his head.

The Ark organization is unreliable. Their base will definitely be overturned the next time players log in on a large scale.

"It's no longer safe here." In the secret laboratory in the suburbs, Tang Ji locked the captives in a closed room.

When this laboratory was first established, it was not considered a secret laboratory. Many people knew that Lazarus had a biochemical laboratory here, and its biggest protective color was the Lazarus sign itself.

"I know, I have strengthened the security level here." Wu Qianying looked at the interrogation records brought by Tang Ji, and frowned delicately: "Lily Sanatorium? Behind them are Night City Real Estate and Wissen McGee Medical Insurance, low chance of being infiltrated by players and naturalists."

"If I want to transfer the laboratory, how long will it take? How much will it cost?" Tang Ji interrupted Wu Qianying: "They are chasing me very closely. I am worried that this place will be attacked."

"This is a 2S-level laboratory. If labor costs are not considered, each move will cost about 1000 or [-] million federal currency." Wu Qianying calculated for Tang Ji: "From the preparation work, to the investment in the new laboratory It will take at least three months to use it."

"Do you know how much thought I have put into maintaining Anran's living environment?" Wu Qianying looked up at Tang Ji: "Every time he moves, the fatality rate is frighteningly high for him. The transfer process and the start-up of the new greenhouse, It all requires careful planning.”

"I know that finding traces of the player in Night City makes you uneasy, but you are his last barrier, so you can't mess it up." Wu Qianying took apart the interrogation records and spread them on the table: "I'm sure, these The so-called players cannot cross the two worlds at will, otherwise you will not meet one player in the prison, but a group of players."

Afterwards, Wu Qianying called up a map of Night City on the screen and drew three circles on it: "I analyzed the route that Koness said, and the body could only escape from these three places .”

"I also know that you have a lot of questions to ask, but I can't answer them in words you can understand. This is a complicated math question." Wu Qianying spoke quickly, and it was obvious that she was laying the groundwork for the following questions : "If you believe me, you only need to lead people to search from the location I drew, and there should be gains."

"I've said so much to let you understand that no matter what plan you have, it needs me." Wu Qianying stood up and approached Tang Ji: "I know you have secrets from me, and so do I, but you This secret has obviously affected our lives now, so for the sake of Tang Anran and my life, you must tell me with your own mouth what secret you are hiding."

"Don't try to find an excuse to lie to me, Tang Ji, I understand you." Wu Qianying pressed her finger on Tang Ji's lips: "Don't forget, I saved your son's life, I helped you find the Ark Organization, On the road of fighting against players, I can do more than you sitting in front of the computer."

"I'm a genius, you'd better respect genius." Wu Qianying finally warned: "Now, tell me."

Looking at the woman in front of him, Tang Ji suddenly realized his stupidity. His little secrets had obviously been seen through by the other party long ago.

"I can kill players." Tang Ji said. At this moment, he felt that half of the pressure on him had been taken away.

"And then?" Wu Qianying asked expectantly, Tang Ji rarely saw this expression on her face.

"No more." Tang Ji was a little dazed, this was different from what he expected: "I can really kill them."

"I know, but that's all there is?" Wu Qianying's face showed a look of disappointment, which made Tang Ji helpless.

"I can kill them, isn't that enough?" Tang Ji explained, "Isn't this the most effective weapon against them?"

"Of course not." Wu Qianying shook her head: "A simple arithmetic problem, since you realized that you have this ability, how many players have you killed in total? How long did it take?"

"About two months, two people." Tang Ji began to feel less confident.

"When you become proficient and the player base is large enough, we calculate that you can kill one player every day, and you can only kill 365 players a year. Do you know how many people died in Night City last year due to traffic accidents? Anyone?" Wu Qianying pulled out a data: "398 people, if you work hard, you may be able to catch up with a good truck driver."

"This is an asymmetrical war. Your ability may have a certain deterrent effect, but it is obviously not enough to stop the overall invasion of players." Wu Qianying pushed his glasses: "You can't stop such an attack by killing one person." war."

"What's more, in this war, your enemy can make countless mistakes, but you only need to make one mistake, and you will be completely defeated." Wu Qianying pressed her temples and thought for a while: "I don't know that the civilization hidden behind the players has What kind of core, but judging from what they know about us, there is a high probability that they are also human beings, or at least spiritually connected humanoids."

"First of all, you must understand that this is an unwinnable war. You can work hard for it, fight bloody battles, and even sacrifice, but this will not change the final outcome." Wu Qianying's tone was a little choked, at this moment she As if more prophet than prophet.

Tang Ji has no doubt that this woman's almost infinite wisdom has deduced the final ending of the world in her mind.

"So, you have to change your thinking to fight against the players." Wu Qianying looked at Tang Ji: "We must first disintegrate the foundation of the player's existence before the time when we are bound to fail."

"What basis?" Tang Ji felt his mouth dry.

"Ever since I knew about the existence of players, I've been thinking about this question. Why do they call themselves players?" Wu Qianying's eyes seemed to shine brightly: "Among the infinite number of self-proclaimed names, they chose the title of players, which proves that Their sole purpose in coming here is to have fun."

Tang Ji could only nod along with Wu Qianying's train of thought, not even daring to say a word.

"So, in this war that we are doomed to be unable to win, there is a basis for the existence of players, that is, they come to pursue spiritual satisfaction and sensory stimulation." Wu Qianying hesitated: "We can first disintegrate this foundation. "

"I don't understand." Tang Ji looked blank, as if he had returned to a high school physics class.

"The seven original sins represent the seven desires of human beings." Wu Qianying looked at Tang Ji, hesitated again, and finally said firmly: "Lust, those players are so similar to us that aesthetically, our civilization wants to You know what I mean, I don't know how many adult plug-ins are in video games now."

Tang Ji felt a little suffocated: "What do you mean by the disintegration you said before?"

"Deteriorating oneself from the genetic level, human beings can't desire goblins, at least most human beings can't, which will greatly affect the player's experience." Wu Qianying seems to be thinking about feasibility: "But it will take too long , is not very feasible.”

"Gluttony, which represents appetite, is the lowest need of human beings." Wu Qianying continued: "It's hard for me to imagine a group of players crossing a world just to come here to eat and drink, but this is the easiest and most frequent way for them to get it. I'm having fun with it, so I'm thinking about replacing crops with some edible, high-yield crop that's high in nutrition but tastes bad."

"From the perspective of cost, this is easy to do, the cost is quite low, and the feasibility is very high." Wu Qianying casually called out a large number of Lazarus' internal scientific research reports: "Lazarus has studied similar things internally. , piranhas with extremely high meat production, baobabs that taste like cement but have great vitality, there are too many choices.”

"Greed, this is the instinct of predators. We cut out all the profitable parts, and greed will make them self-defeating." Wu Qianying pushed his glasses again: "The most troublesome thing is rage, which represents the tyranny in their bones. They came into this world, and there is no morality to restrain them, and I can literally see blood flow into rivers in this world."

"This is where you need to contribute. When they make us bleed, you have to make them bleed." Wu Qianying's words seemed to have the rusty taste of blood: "Your ability, your character, are enough to make you bleed." To be their nightmare, you don't have to kill every player, but you have to be the sword of Damolix over their heads so they don't dare to do anything reckless."

"Jealousy, our world must have something that they don't have there, and only unique features can attract enough players to enter." Wu Qianying sighed: "I guess, it's superhumans. Players have been secretly guiding the growth of the number of superhumans. But these are speculations."

"As for arrogance, it's not our problem." Wu Qianying wrapped her hair around her fingertips: "They come from the high-dimensional world, and they will naturally think that they are higher than us, and they will not regard us as equals. It will never change."

"I didn't expect you to think so deeply." For a moment, Tang Ji felt that compared with this woman, his own cruelty was only superficial.

"Recently, the research on Tang Anran has encountered a bottleneck. I have a lot of time to think." Wu Qianying pointed to her own brain: "But I am not talking about alarmist talk. I have carefully deduced that if the number of players continues to grow, our The world will usher in a node, and after the node, even if we destroy the basis of players’ enjoyment, they will continue to eat our world by inertia.”

"I don't understand. What do you mean by node?" Tang Ji asked with some uncertainty.

"According to my calculations, if more than 15 players continue to exist in our world for more than a week, they can be called nodes." Wu Qianying explained: "But this is only my preliminary calculation, many data models and algorithms themselves It is not yet rigorous, and more computing power is needed to get accurate results.”

If the Prophet had found you earlier, I'm afraid the world would be over by now, right?
"I will convey what you said to the prophet." Tang Ji said hoarsely to Wu Qianying: "Maybe you are right, this is an unimagined path."

"Don't be so pessimistic. This is just a rough conclusion I have drawn based on the available information. If they are lucky, maybe they will miss the opportunity to return to our world again?" Wu Qianying said to Tang Ji: "I'm just talking about the most pessimistic Condition."

No, I have seen it just now, you even prepared a backup plan for BCDEF about the plan to destroy the world.
"We'd better solve Tang Anran and your safety first." Tang Ji shook his head and returned to the topic.

After the conversation just now, he did calm down, and now Tang Ji believes that Wu Qianying must have an emergency plan for his own safety.

"I do have a backup plan. If it goes well, it may temporarily solve the problem of Enron." Wu Qianying called up a short video of a puppy video from the screen.

Tang Ji saw a girl who looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, surfing on the beach. The next second, the waves condensed into ice under the girl's skateboard.
