This Game is Too Real

Genius to remember the address of this site in one second: []https://The fastest update! No ads!

"800 silver coins equals 40,000, 8,000 silver coins equals 400,000, 80,000 silver coins equals four million... four million..."

Ok.

That's actually a big problem.

There is no need for epoch-making immersive virtual reality online games, but anyone who has played two phenomenal mmorpg games knows what the so-called "g-price" is.

By the time he can actually take out hundreds of thousands of silver coins and hang them on the forum for sale, I'm afraid the silver coins will not be that valuable.

but--

If he can train to level 30 or even level 40 when others are at level 20, and when others wear power armor, he drives a spaceship and throws power armor down, so what if the silver coins are not so valuable?

When someone else has 10,000 silver coins in his pocket, he may have several hundred million in his pocket.

As long as he stays in the first echelon and always walks ahead of the version, even if he earns 50 silver coins, he may not earn less than when he earns 1 silver coin and 50 yuan.

If a new version is opened, new equipment is released, or a large number of players enter the pit, the price of silver coins may increase instead.

At present, there are only 1,600 players in the beta test of "Wasteland ol", and the number of reservations has already exceeded the one million mark. In the voice of science, the price of silver coins has been smashed into the sky. .

Where did this go?

Maybe in the not-too-distant future, everyone wears a helmet and closes their eyes is the second world, and human civilization will enter a new era.

At that time, no matter what the price of the silver coins is, his return will be far more than 40,000, maybe even more than 400 million...

This is just the beginning!

Ye Wei felt his heart beating fast.

This was the first time he had the idea of ​​becoming a professional.

On the way from the computer room to the dormitory, Ye Wei, who was carrying a huge sum of money, felt that his whole body was floating, and when he arrived at the door, he remembered that he forgot to eat lunch.

"Awei, do you miss a girl?"

"Fuck off."

Ye Wei looked up at his roommate who was lying on the bed.

That little man was called Sun Gan, and he had a very close relationship with him. Before, the two often ate chicken double steak together, but they have been out of the pit for a while.

Ordinary games can no longer satisfy him.

"Would you like to go to dinner?"

The roommate replied with a smile.

"Go, if someone asks me to go."

"I'll treat."

The dude's eyes widened instantly.

"Fuck? Really?"

He just jokes every day.

But I didn't think about getting out of bed.

I heard that someone invited me to dinner, and the head of the dormitory and Brother Liu also joined in the fun and started booing.

"Awei Ba Ba!"

"Brother Wei is awesome!"

Ye Wei rolled his eyes.

"Don't beep, get up quickly."

The four of them just didn't eat, and went to the snack street together.

After finding a lakeside grilled fish with a good reputation, Ye Wei picked up the menu and made a few ticks, and it only cost two hundred.

Usually, 20 yuan for takeout is distressing to him, but now he even thinks it is cheap.

After all, 200 yuan is only 4 silver coins...

calm down.

Can't count.

Ye Wei took a deep breath and tried to convince himself to calm down.

Because just now, he suddenly realized that he had eaten a bowl of ramen for 6 silver coins a few hours ago.

It was probably the most expensive bowl he had ever eaten in his life.

Seeing his good brother take a deep breath and smirk for a while, the three roommates looked at each other and made eye contact.

'I don't think Wei is right today... is there something wrong at home? ’

'Good brother, heroes see the same thing! I also think that Wei Ge is probably out of the order! ’

'It makes sense, when this kid entered the door just now, I felt that he was a little dazed, maybe he was dumped. ’

After a few exchanges, the head of the dormitory's eyes gradually became firmer, looking at Ye Wei who was sitting there counting fishbones, and his right hand supported his shoulder.

Ye Wei raised his head in confusion.

"...What are you doing?"

The head of the dormitory said with a serious face.

"The road in life is still long, there are no obstacles that can't be overcome, and there are no people who can't let go. If I want to open up a little brother, I really want to cry. Brother Liu can borrow your shoulder."

Ye Wei almost didn't get caught by the fishbone in his throat, and Brother Liu, who was sitting opposite, was even more exaggerated, and almost spit out a sip of tea.

"Fuck off! You have to borrow it yourself! You want me to sell my body for one meal...except for two."

"You bastard! What about the relationship that has been in the same bed for more than a year? We Wei are like this, what's wrong with him!"

"Are you serious?"

"Gee vomit."

Ye Wei looked at the three of them with a dazed expression.

"What the hell?"

The head of the dormitory said with a dry smile.

"It's nothing, we just see that your mood is not right, and we are a little worried about you."

Ye Wei couldn't help laughing and crying.

"No, no, you misunderstood, I just... I encountered a little good thing, and my mentality is a little impetuous. Give me a little time to adjust, and I will be fine by myself."

Sun Qian asked curiously.

"What's the good thing?"

Brother Liu also asked excitedly.

"Tell me, my impetuous kidneys are empty."

"..."

Ye Wei didn't know how to speak.

This topic has been discussed many times in their dormitory, but even if he showed them the official website, none of them believed it.

Show them your bank card balance?

His EQ isn't that low yet.

"If, I mean, if...there was a 100% real virtual reality online game, how popular would it be?"

The three roommates looked at each other.

"Brother Wei..."

"What?"

"If ah, I mean if..." Sun Gan said weakly, "One day you will go into trouble - oh no, you have done a great job, can you start killing Brother Liu and the dormitory first?"

Brother Liu: "Fuck! Vicious, you!"

"Hey, forget it," Ye Wei shook his head helplessly and took a sip of beer, knowing that it would turn out like this, "When your father farted."

More than two o'clock in the afternoon.

The group went back to the bedroom.

When people are full, they feel sleepy, and when they are sleepy, they don’t want to work. The three decided to eat two chickens to study, and called Ye Wei.

Although I know that this guy is mostly not interested, and he shouts in vain, whether he shouts or not is another matter.

Standing on the balcony, Ye Wei thought about it, and finally decided to be conservative and transfer 6,000 to my mother's bank card first.

Before he could send a WeChat message to make it clear, the old lady's phone called.

"Weiwei, what's the situation with the 6,000 yuan?"

Hearing the concerned voice on the other end of the phone, Ye Wei couldn't help feeling warm.

"Mom, I recently... found a part-time job. I paid the tuition for this semester with my salary. If you transfer my tuition, I will give it to you first."

In the end, Ye Wei was too embarrassed to say that he made money from playing games, so he could only find a reason to deal with it first, and then explain a little bit later.

"Part-time? What part-time? Why did you suddenly run to part-time?"

"Electronic product reviewer... Anyway, specifically to help test some new equipment," Ye Wei said with a blushing face.

The voice on the other end of the phone hesitated.

"Testing new equipment... Isn't that a guinea pig?"

"It's okay, it's safe, and it's night... I mean it doesn't conflict with the class time, and it doesn't affect learning."

so close!

Almost missed the mark!

Ye Wei felt that if he said that he went to work at night, he would have misunderstood something.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while.

"...Don't be too tired of yourself. You still need to learn more knowledge when you go to university. It's still very easy for you to go to university because of our family's economic conditions."

"Don't worry, Mom, part-time work is also a kind of learning. I learned a lot from the friends who took the test together, and I don't want to share some for the family? Jiujiu is going to take the college entrance examination in June this year, and she is still learning. When it comes to painting, tuition fees, living expenses, buying paints... There will still be more places to spend money."

"By the way, you don't have to call me for living expenses in the future, I have enough money on me..."

Said a lot.

Finally finished dealing with the mother's side.

Ye Wei, who put down his phone, took a deep breath, and after thinking for a while, he opened Goudong, picked a phone with a value of about 4,000, and sent the link to his sister.

Jiu Jiu likes to eat pineapple: "?"

Wei: "Like it?"

Jiujiu loves to eat pineapples: "What do you want to do? Let me state first, I only need a little bit of pocket money. If you can't afford to eat, I can lend you a little bit, but you can't buy a mobile phone. (Alert.jpg

Wei: "Bum, is your brother the kind of person who eats soft rice? Forget it, I wanted to send it to you directly, but after thinking about it, it will affect your studies too much, so let's talk about it after you get admitted to Humei."

Jiujiu loves to eat pineapple: "no! Brother!! I was wrong! qaq"

Seeing his sister's bombarded emoji, Ye Wei's mouth curled up unconsciously.

How will you spend your money after you get rich?

He really hadn't thought about it carefully.

Although he is an all-powerful t0 player in "Wasteland OL", but with "Wasteland OL" slowly testing the progress, he never expects to rely on this thing to eat.

And now, his previous efforts have paid off.

While playing with your friends, you can also solve your worries and let your family live a better life.

hateful!

The **** operator is playing sugar-coated cannonballs again!

Turning off the phone, Ye Wei looked towards the bedroom behind him.

The roommates are eating chicken for three rows, and a fierce gun battle is breaking out on the screen, and they keep shouting "pull the gun line" and "smoke smoke".

But it is a game in the "two-dimensional era", and those rough pictures are no longer attractive to him.

Looking at the black helmet on the table, Ye Wei suddenly felt a little warm in his heart.

"Thanks, brother."

...

the same world.

Far across the ocean.

In a room in Virginia, the lights were dark, and only one computer remained on.

This is the only laptop that doesn't have an internet connection.

Only a string of understated characters remained on the flashing screen.

"Don't try to be clever."

"Don't think your rules will solve other people's problems."

"You have your own problems to solve, and it is better to take care of yourselves when you have that time."

"This is a warning."

It is also their only progress in the past six months.

With his left hand rubbing his messy hair, the curly-haired man shook the mouse with a broken face.

"It's useless... This computer is also not saved."

This is the office of the CIA's special operations team, codenamed "", and their target is a "non-existent" but "normally accessible" website.

They first discovered the site in a gaming community.

In the beginning, no one took it seriously, only as a group of netizens in the Chinese cultural circle playing tricks.

It was not until more and more CGs were released, and a senior agent named Fick tried to find the backdoor of the website out of curiosity, that he gradually realized the seriousness of the matter.

This site simply doesn't exist.

But it can be accessed normally.

This abnormal situation made him once thought he had discovered aliens.

At first, the federation did not pay attention to this kind of details. After all, even this kind of thing had to be paid special attention to, and their grassroots personnel were exhausted.

However, considering that this phenomenon is really abnormal, after a level-by-level report, cia finally set up a team dedicated to this case.

For Fick, who is in charge of this group, this is a great opportunity. As long as he can complete this task beautifully, he will definitely be appreciated by the minister.

In this way, they worked day and night in this dim room for half a year, and even learned Chinese by themselves, but unfortunately they have not made any progress.

The security of the other party's server was flawless, and there was no flaw at all, which caused a headache for the network information security experts invited by Fick.

However, things have finally turned around recently.

The other party released the game currency transaction of "Wasteland ol" in the "beta0.2 version" update.

As we all know, when a system is just developed, it is often the time when there are the most vulnerabilities. Haven't bugs been fixed in those previous version announcements?

Fick has reason to believe that this newly launched "silver coin trading platform" will become a breakthrough to conquer the Troy city wall!

To make the operation a success, Fick brought in the strongest information technology team he could find, and asked them to do whatever it took to hack the website's servers to find the location of the anonymous business.

If conditions permit, it is best to get the relevant data of the "Dreamland" system, which will become the key to his meritorious service!

Whether it works or not, you have to give it a try.

Anyway, the other party has always been very Buddhist before, and he didn't respond to their frequent temptations, and he didn't dare to offend the powerful Milikian.

What Fick did not expect, however, was that the price he paid for one bitcoin was the collapse of the entire system.

The other party not only killed their server, but also deleted all the data on their server.

Looking at the paralyzed computers in the room, Fick only felt blood dripping from his heart, numbness in his scalp, and cold hands and feet.

As if he had foreseen it, his boss scolded furiously.

"All 147 servers were destroyed... It's over."

His hands completely left the keyboard, and another information technology expert sitting in front of the computer finally gave up struggling.

"Our opponent is a monster, and it's not how good they are that is frustrating, it's their technology that I can't understand."

"You know what I just went through? I feel like a primitive man with a stone spear guarding the city, and in front of me is a giant sent by Odin. I'm not even sure I've angered it, but It's still reaching out to me..." As he said, he pointed out the little finger of his right hand, and continued to ramble on incoherently those incomprehensible words.

"... A little finger at most, no more, and this is beyond the limit of our server."

Fick swallowed hard.

"Don't scare yourself..."

He admitted that they may have some gaps in the field of information technology, but at most it is the level of t64 and Leopard II, and it is not enough to pull the hips to the level of Xie Mantou.

However--

The lack of self-confidence in his heart caused him to put a hint of doubt at the end of his words.

The information technology expert shook his head.

"It's not that I scare myself... Forget it, you don't understand. With all due respect, this is an asymmetrical duel, they won't be honorable, and I'm not ashamed if I lose."

Throwing those words down, he leaned back on the chair exhausted.

That expression was somewhat self-defeating.

"I just wanted to ask, who of you turned off the lights?"

Glancing at the extinguished light above his head, and then at the extinguished charging signal light on the laptop, he suddenly frowned.

"power cut?"

What's the point of a power outage now.

Fick took out his phone and glanced at it, but there was no signal.

At this moment, his subordinates walked in hurriedly from outside, with disbelief and horror written on their faces.

"Stopped, not just us, the whole state! Damn, base station has no signal, it takes time to switch backup generators, and the whole department is a mess right now. I don't want to tie the two things together, but it happens a few seconds ago."

Looking at the man walking in from the door, the room was dead silent.

power failure……

And the whole state.

Compared to the economic loss caused by the power outage across the state, the fact that they broke more than a hundred servers is insignificant...

Fick's Adam's apple moved with difficulty. Although it was still March weather, he felt that the heat in the room was suffocating.

He's in a mess.

Can't figure it out.

It was obvious that the other party's previous cyber attacks on them were all "yielding" and "don't dare to fight back", why did they suddenly fight back this time?

Now that I think about it, the other party didn't dare to offend before, but simply didn't bother to pay attention. And this time, the other party not only shot, but also countered indiscriminately and without restrictions, directly pulling the switch of the entire state.

Would this be too much?

The curly-haired man sitting in front of the computer punched the table angrily.

"This is a terrorist attack!"

Fick gave him a quick glance and coughed softly.

"Do you have evidence? If there is no evidence... it's better not to connect the two things together."

Once the two things are linked, they must respond formally. And once a formal response is made, he, as the person in charge, will be held responsible for the losses caused by the failure.

Why bother?

No one has claimed responsibility for this.

The generators restarted, communications resumed, and light returned to the room.

However, the atmosphere in the room was full of depression.

An agent pinched his eyebrows and said with a headache.

"...What kind of company is this?"

Fick wanted to say the same thing.

With such a heaven-defying technology, they actually used it... to make games?

What's the difference between being reborn and running to play dota?

helmet……

If only I could get a helmet.

Fick's heart moved.

If the wallet that received the bitcoin can be traced, at least one player’s identity can be locked. Even if the other party is on the other side of the ocean, it is inconvenient for them to send someone to contact them directly, but there are too many indirect means to win over citizens of third world countries. now-

etc.

A drop of cold sweat suddenly flashed across Fick's forehead.

Just now, he suddenly realized that he might be planning an extremely dangerous thing.

It's not hard to get a helmet.

But just getting the helmet won't fix anything.

The cost is unknown.

Those lunatics have a way to paralyze a state's power system in seconds, and not only can't find what's wrong on their own side, but they don't even have evidence that it's related to them.

perhaps……

You should think carefully about what that "warning" really means, and the risk of "hidden danger" spreading from the federal power system to other systems.

After rearranging his thoughts, Fick took a deep breath and glanced around at the colleagues in the room.

"There is a problem with the idea of ​​hacking the server...I don't doubt that we have the ability to break into their server, but we don't need to take this risk."

"The technical strength shown by the other party is obviously not owned by organizations or institutions known to our intelligence network, otherwise those people would have used it long ago."

"It's also clear that we don't have a direct conflict of interest... Maybe a gentler approach would make them feel more honest about us."

Although everyone's expressions were very strange, no one refuted.

"I'm glad we came to an agreement."

Fick breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and continued speaking in a soft tone.

"My expression just now may be more euphemistic, I mean..."

"Shall we fill out a form first?"

...

The same thing is playing out elsewhere.

Across the ocean.

somewhere.

The bright and spacious room was quiet, the desk was full of papers, the trash was full of cigarette butts, and a few fell to the ground.

More than a dozen people were busy quietly. Judging from the dark circles on their faces, they had been working hard for several days.

However, tomorrow should be a day off.

Probably because they couldn't stand their days of hard work, there was only one computer left that didn't go down.

So be it.

In fact, rather than what happened to the "non-existent website", they wanted to know how those "helmets that should not exist" appeared in the hands of players out of thin air.

This is more serious than an economic problem.

"Can you find that person?"

"I can find it, but I can't find it."

The old policeman frowned.

"What's the meaning?"

The young policeman sighed.

"The messages before April last year are all gone. There is no trace of deletion, but nothing at all. He is like a ghost that appeared out of nowhere. Our only clues are the Penguin and a few chat records up to April last year. , he has nothing to hide, or does not bother to hide at all."

Another colleague frowned.

"He always has his own social connections, right? What about the friends in the account? What about the registered mobile phone number?"

Compared to the "Xiaoqi" who doesn't even have a social account, the plan code-named "Aguang" is likely to be their only breakthrough.

The young man was silent for a while.

"The most evil place is here."

"We know a lot, but we couldn't find where he worked or his parents. We searched the archives of Jiangcheng University and the local talent market and couldn't find any files about him, or those materials. It was faked, or it was tampered with... He disappeared and never even appeared before our eyes, like a ufo flew from the sky and sucked him away with the traces of his existence."

However, in contrast to this bizarre phenomenon.

Locking down those players' identities is easy.

The information on the website is shady, but monitoring group chat information can always find some clues.

Their team is very high-level, and the circumstances in which they are in charge of the case are extremely special.

Generally, the relevant personnel need to go to the door to check these sensitive things, but they can get them directly.

"In addition to chat records, there is also bank transfer information. Although the information on the website cannot be locked, all transfers of the same amount at the same time period can be locked and then screened. Buying game items is not illegal, but we can ask them to cooperate with our investigation... Do you need to contact them?"

The silent old man suddenly spoke up.

"You're talking about banks, I was thinking just now, what if there's something wrong with the banking system."

The young man was slightly stunned and said nervously.

"Silver, the bank? Not so much..."

The old man thought for a moment and said, "It's just an assumption. Our work may add unnecessary trouble to our comrades in the banking system."

The man with the national character face who had not spoken for a while suddenly spoke up.

"It's not really necessary."

See everyone looking over.

He continued slowly.

"First of all, we have to admit that the other party's information technology is above ours."

Sitting in front of the computer, a look of shame appeared on the face of the middle-aged man wearing glasses.

"Feel sorry……"

The Chinese-faced man shook his head.

"It's not your fault. They have technology that we have never heard of, and can interfere with dreams. Using this technology to steal secrets I feel like a child."

"I even thought about whether there will be aliens. Through this method, we can understand our civilization level and thinking form, and then decide whether to..."

Saying that, the man with the national character made a gesture on his neck.

Everyone in the office looked at each other.

But soon realized he was joking.

The old man coughed dryly and said calmly.

"No matter how you say aliens..."

Outrageous.

Even if this is likely to be the closest guess to the truth.

"It's just a hypothesis, just now my colleagues informed me that there was a massive power outage across the ocean in Virginia...and not in one district, but the entire state. The power grid there was out for a full hour, and Washington only had a power outage. Across the Tomac River. Their external explanation is that the aging of the circuit caused the power company's system to fail. After emergency repairs, it has returned to normal, but they are not the only ones who know it."

The man with the national character face thought for a while and continued.

"They know where we are, and they even showed a hand. Aside from the dream system built with the help of 'thinking cognition', their achievements in the field of information technology may be at least half a century ahead of us... or even possible More."

"I'm still open to speculation that the operators of this game are aliens -- or extraterrestrial civilizations. It's not Earth-based technology at all, and that's not my opinion alone."

No technology can emerge out of thin air without a theoretical foundation, and that website exists beyond their knowledge.

A layman might not see the difference from a normal website, but to someone who really knows, it looks like an isolated singularity.

The two sides are not in one dimension at all.

And this is the source of the thorny problem.

The old detective coughed lightly.

"Looks like we need to add a space system comrade."

The person next to him made a joke to ease the atmosphere.

"And the budget to increase the Nantianmen plan?"

The middle-aged man with glasses sitting in front of the computer was still a little unwilling.

"This world-changing technology, if we could—"

The Chinese-faced man coughed softly.

"Back to the topic just now, I think it is the most unwise choice to take the initiative to intervene. Someone has already fallen for us, and we don't need to follow them in the river once."

The old man frowned.

"Can you just let it go?"

The man with the national character face continued.

"We don't know their motives for running the game, the rationale, or even...are they people from Earth."

"However, they clearly knew us, and just a few months after the mastermind with the code name 'Aguang' evaporated, the mmorpg "Wasteland ol" was launched soon."

"And he explained to other netizens in the group chat that he had changed jobs."

"We assume that they are from outside the solar system, then this will be our first contact with an extraterrestrial civilization. We represent more than our own civilization. I prefer the most cautious contact than the possible consequences of arrogance."

"Why not observe it for a while?"

"The other party has shown us the sincerity of civilization. We should be vigilant and show the sincerity that a civilized person should have."

"Whatever their purpose is, the game has just run to round b, and maybe they are from far away worlds trying to send us some kind of message or metaphor through the 'game' - a cultural form that we can understand."

"At least for now, it doesn't mean hostility. And if it means aid, we could benefit a lot from it."

The old man pondered for a long time and nodded.

"It's really rude to interrupt someone in the middle of what they're saying, at least until they've finished."

The man next to him nodded.

"I think so too."

The young man raised his hand.

"I am against it. I am worried that external forces will attack those players. At least we should protect those 'players'."

The man with the national character face did not speak, the old man smiled and shook his head.

"You think our opponent is too stupid."

Destroy it if you don't get it?

This is some kind of third-rate romance drama.

There are such stupid opponents and they have already won.

As for controlling the player...

Not even necessary.

The number of reservations has exceeded one million, and it is still increasing. The existing technical means can only know who forwarded the link, but who has been on the website when, and there is no way to know who will get the helmet next. .

There is a black hole absorbing information, more mysterious than the world outside our solar system.

The other party chose them.

You can also choose someone else.

The young man sighed.

"If only I could get a helmet."

The man with the national character face smiled and said.

"That thing, it's useless. I have people study it, and the structure inside is so simple that it makes people confused. We haven't mastered the most basic principles. As for the reverse... just listen to it as a joke."

The old man looked at him in surprise.

"Where did you get the helmet?"

The man with the national character face smiled embarrassedly.

"It's quite a coincidence, maybe I discovered it earlier. It's just... a very normal form, including age, major, things you're good at, games you've played, and some multiple-choice questions that young people may be more interested in, Then clicked the yes button."

To be honest, he didn't play many games, most of them were online games like Legends in the early days, and he never thought that he would actually be able to enter.

The other party didn't seem to care at all~www.readwn.com~ The helmet was placed directly at his door.

In fact, he's been playing for a while.

And that's why his superiors called him to help in this group from the very beginning.

The old man was stunned.

"Did you fill out that form?"

"Does it make any difference? Unless my profile is completely removed from the system, it's just graffiti on the wall for them."

After a pause, the man with the national character face looked at the computer whose screen was flickering.

"I even have a feeling."

"We're meeting here today behind closed doors, and the audience is far more than ourselves."
