The morning of the second day after the preliminary exam was over, it was opened by the Sunday morning light through the cracks in the curtains.
After a good night's sleep, Xu Mo stretched his waist and strolled to the sofa area of the living room. He saw Nolan with two circles of dark circles sitting on the corner of the sofa with his legs curled up, holding a bear mug in both hands, with a thoughtful expression appearance.
It seems that the child didn't sleep very well last night.
"What's the matter? Are you still thinking about the clear sky?" Zhimei Mo Ruxiong hit Nolan's mind with a single blow.
"Yeah, sister Qingkong is very anxious, we have to find a way to help her!" Nolan sat up and said to Xu Mo with a serious face, "The first thing to do when you get a hunter license is to help Qingkong Sister—get Nana back!—this is my resolution!"
Xu Mo nodded, recalling yesterday's lunch time, Qingkong mentioned about the game called [Brave Continent], and her knots—
-
Three months ago, a company called Shengyou Network disclosed a game called [Brave Continent], and spent a lot of money to invite Nana to speak for it. As the endorsement goddess of the game, Nana, of course, became the first batch of closed beta users of the game without hesitation.
On the rest day when the closed beta started, Nana put on a BrainStation helmet at her home and entered the game with the closed beta account...
Since then, she never woke up again, just lying on the sofa in the living room, until the assistant went to her home and found Nana motionless for a long time, she was not alert, and hurriedly called an ambulance to send her to the hospital. to the hospital.
Nana has been lying quietly for three months after being transferred from the special nursing room of the hospital to the insulation cabin specially used to extend her life. She can only rely on nutritional liquid food to extend her life. The economic company suppressed this secret under pressure. Please use all means to wake Nana up as soon as possible.
And Qingkong, who was unable to solve this dilemma after several turnarounds, learned that this situation can only be solved by relying on safari hunters, so he paid a lot of money to hire the most popular safari hunter, Sorens, who ranked third in the Moon Hunting Technology Hunter list a month ago, Go to the rescue.
However, a month passed and there was no news.
Having been tortured by this situation, Qing Kong, who can’t eat at night or sleep at night, finally made up her mind to obtain a hunter’s license in person, and go to the [Brave Continent] game in person to rescue her best friend and dearest sister, Nana. .
After listening to Qing Kong's narration yesterday, Xu Mo, Nolan and Witt all fell silent. Qingkong's sad tone concealed it, and for the first time made Xu Mo feel the heavy responsibility of the safari hunter profession.

Xu Mo was still thinking, and with a "ding", the notification email from Moonhunting Technology arrived.
Turning on the light screen, I saw the content of the final selection notice read as follows—
Mr. Hummer:

"2 o'clock this afternoon?!" The siblings shouted almost at the same time after reading the email.
Looking at the current time, at 9:00 in the morning, there are still 5 hours to pack enough luggage for a month. As Xu Mo, it may be no pressure, but for Nolan, it is still a bit messy.
Fortunately, five hours later, the two boarded the plane to New York on time. Nolan, who hadn't slept all night, fell asleep as soon as he took his seat on the plane. Perhaps infected by his sister's lethargy, Xu Mo also fell asleep shortly after boarding the plane.
After the plane docked, both of them were woken up by the flight attendant. Xu Mo supported Nolan, who was still a little stunned and erratic, and got off the plane until the long-legged blond beauty who picked them up appeared in front of them and took their luggage. Luggage, she just woke up a little bit.
Not long after flying in the ultra-luxury retro-style Linton aircraft, they came to a grassland in the center of a forest area and stopped. The blond tour guide led them through a small forest to an old building that looked like a haunted house. As soon as you push the door in, you will see another high-tech and modern scene. In the center of the simple white space stands a tall and thin man in a black dress, with a retro British style of long eyes, thin lips, and high nose. Seeing them Come in, without the slightest change in the expression on his face, he said mechanically—
"Welcome to the hunting area of Moonhunting Technology, Mr. Xu Mo and Miss Nolan. My name is Lincoln. From here on, I will take over your daily affairs. Your luggage has been delivered to the room in advance. I will Take you to your dormitory."
"Is this also a robot?" Nolan asked Xu Mo.
Then, Lincoln with sharp ears replied instead of Xu Mo: "I'm not a robot, I've let you down, Miss Nolan."
Nolan stuck out his tongue, obediently followed Lincoln's footsteps and walked towards the inside of the building.
-
Passing through the white and clean circular lobby, walking in is a bright corridor. Through the glass, you can see all kinds of rare vegetation outside. Nolan and the two looked around curiously.
"Where is this place? There was no specific address in the email, and I didn't ask the lady who picked me up on the plane just now..." Xu Mo finally broke the silence and asked the "vampire" Mr. Lincoln who was leading the way.
"This is the hunting area for moon hunting technology."
"I know, you just said, where exactly is this hunting area?"
"This is a forest park located in Yorktown Heights, New York State. In the early years, it was the research laboratory of the giant company IBM in the late 20th century. After several changes of hands, this park was purchased by Moonhunting Technology ten years ago and became a training center for newcomers. What you see now is the result of nearly 10 years of renovation."
At this time, they passed a cylindrical glass room, through which it was clearly visible that there was an old-fashioned machine composed of wires and iron sheets that was completely impossible to see in this era.
Xu Mo stopped without realizing it, and began to look at these strange machines seriously.
Based on his curiosity, Lincoln casually introduced: "Half a century ago, in 2011, which was still a period of technological enlightenment, the supercomputer "Watson" that won the championship in "Jeopardy" was born here. The original Watson computer is still being used. Stay here, that's what you see now, it's about the size of a bedroom, with 10 what appear to be cabinet refrigerators lining four walls, with tiny openings in the middle allowing technicians to access the wires and cables behind the machines. The temperature inside is surprisingly high, which makes people feel that the fleet is alive, and it’s really interesting to think that our current technology all originated from these ancient technologies.”
"Such an ancient thing is still preserved, this is really an interesting place." Xu Mo couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, here is not only the original 'Watson' you saw, but also several generations of 'Watson' that have been improved later. These 'Watson' have witnessed the progress of the times and the development of technology over the past century. and the greatness of mankind." Lincoln said, pointing to another glass house next to the original 'Watson', "This is an improved version of 'Watson' in the early 20th century, you see, it is quite different from before. Gradually shrinking, from the size of a room to a server the size of a brick, these antiques in their popular era can run billions of smart projects at the same time, just like all cloud-based transactions, while providing customers around the world Service. The scale of this type of artificial intelligence can be adjusted according to needs. Artificial intelligence has spread and evolved since this era, and began to improve itself as people use it. Today, Watson is getting smarter and smarter. He is no longer a separate program or A cloud, but a brain."
"Where is 'Watson' today?" Xu Mo asked curiously.
"Don't worry, you will meet him soon." Lincoln smiled for the first time since we met, "Because, during the month here, Watson will assist us to complete all your training."
