【Option [-]】

[Ability: Black Hand]

Specific performance: When you use a false identity, master the minimum intelligence required to assume the identity.

……

Zheng Zhuo looked left and right alternately for a while, and clicked [Ability: Black Hand].

It seemed that there was some kind of program behind him that was closed with his click, and the light green interfaces disappeared one by one.In the end, there was only one line left in the air: [Black Hand].

And this line of words only stayed for a moment longer.Soon, it turned into a light green sheet of light and merged into Zheng Zhuo's body.

There was a piece of pure white in front of him again.Everything is still the same.The blank, the egg case, the desk, the old computer and the young woman sitting behind it.

The old computer fan hums in the quiet, empty space.Even the voice seemed to be the same as when he left.

"...08...26...72..."

Zheng Zhuo read a string of numbers in a low voice and walked towards the computer.

Soon, he saw those egg cases clearly: now Tao Tao from [Magic Academy World] was inside.

Then, he saw the young woman again: she was always typing on the keyboard.

In the past, Zheng Zhuo had never imagined what it would be like if God really existed.But recently he knew: the god in charge of the [subconscious mind] is a female programmer.At least, for now.

She can do far less than "all-knowing and omniscient".However, she will listen to people's requests.

This is acceptable.At least it is better than a bad old man who is headstrong and can't even explain the underlying logic of things.

Zheng Zhuo thought happily in bitterness.

……

"...15...08...26...72..."

He read the string of numbers and came to the young woman.The young woman also stopped typing on the keyboard.

"Thanks for your hard work."

"It's been hard work behind the scenes."

So, I'm chatting with God like this... God is my colleague and my support.

Thinking of this, Zheng Zhuo's mood became a little better.And the young woman saw this.

"You look fine," she said.

"You look busy."

"It's okay. When you left [Magic Academy World], the detection point lost your signal, I checked it." She raised her eyebrows, "I found that you entered the [Wise Man World] that you left earlier. ]’s consciousness. I think I closed some ports when I closed the entrance, and the stack overflow caused this bug.”

Zheng Zhuo shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he did not understand the terminology.

"I just want to know if it's going to kill me...or push me into something worse than losing my life? Like trapping me in the brain of a bonobo for the rest of my life some type of."

"Well... I don't think so." The young woman said, "At present, the impact of this bug is only to let you get on someone's body, and let the participants who are sent out observe the [subconscious world] through their mobile phones." what happened there."

"That sounds like a benign bug."

"You know what? Only gamers like benign bugs."

"Now you are supporting the player." Zheng Zhuo said while writing something on the back of his hand, "Is there a way to take advantage of this? I want the [wise man] to observe the world when I enter the [subconscious world] The situation here, and can keep in touch with me.”

"..."

"This way my work can be safer and more efficient, can't it? Everything can be done earlier and more people can be rescued."

"..."

"Of course, it would be even better if a few more people could see it. [Orphan] seemed to have called me just now, can he join? Oh, I believe [Innocent] received very little mental damage. She woke up Maybe it can help—”

"..."

The young woman was silent.Her brows were tightly frowned, Zheng Zhuo had seen this expression on the faces of many people who were about to get angry.

"How about it?"

But Zheng Zhuo still bit the bullet and asked.Questions should be asked no matter what is related to important matters.Such as salary, or life.

"..."

The young woman let out a long sigh.

She didn't lose her temper.

"It's still very unstable. I haven't tried it. I will track the parameters all the way. If there is any problem, I will cut it off immediately."

"Ok."

When a person starts putting a lot of conditions in the conversation, it means she says yes.Zheng Zhuo nodded immediately without any retort.

"When you want another person to observe you, contact him in advance. Let him click on the software interface when you enter the subconscious world."

"In this way, you can let the other party see the situation in the world you are in."

"Thank you so much."

Zheng Zhuo nodded.

The young woman waved her hand.

"It's time to adjust the parameters again. Fortunately, I won't be tired here. You can go back. It's still the same, wait for my notice."

Zheng Zhuo's body flew up lightly.

Let God work overtime.

Zheng Zhuo began to feel an inexplicable sense of satisfaction again.Realizing that he had become the person he hated the most, he slapped his cheek hard.

"...15...08...26...72..."

He began to memorize a series of numbers.

"Since just now, what have you been reading and writing?"

When he was about to fly out of the [Pure White World], the young woman asked him.

"Oh, this." Zheng Zhuo replied, "It's just a string of phone numbers."

……

When he came back to his senses, Zheng Zhuo found himself back at the door of the small supermarket at night.

Everything is so familiar and strange.Signboards, carriageways, and pedestrians in pairs.He was holding the phone in his hand, and the phone hadn't even turned off automatically, staying on the [collective subconscious] software interface.

"Wow."

He blinked.

In the column of [Subconscious World], there is an extra item of [Magic Academy World].But now, like other worlds, it is in an unselectable state.

“[Subconscious Vote]…[Personal Information]…”

……

【Participant: Zheng Zhuo】

[Position: Explorer]

[Worlds that have been cleared: Small Town World, Ocean World, Dungeon World, Magic Academy World]

[Subconscious World Abilities: Appraisal, Quick Casting, Transformation]

[Ability in the real world: mental resistance: madness is invalid, professional proficiency speed*10, black hand]

……

Personal information has also been updated.

He took a look and turned off the software.

Then he slid up and out of the keyboard.

"XXX15082672."

Fortunately, not forgotten.

He let out a long breath and dialed the number.

This is the number that Chu Huairen told him before he sank into the subconscious world because of stability.

"...beep..."

"...beep..."

"……Hey?"

Picked up on the other side.familiar voice.

"Chu Huairen." Zheng Zhuo said immediately, "I am Zheng Zhuo."

"..."

The other side was silent for a moment.

"I get it, it's tormenting me: just falling into a deep sleep and then being woken up."

Connected!

Zheng Zhuo was overjoyed - this is a staged breakthrough.

This means that he has taken the first step in making a follow-up call for help!
