here it is…
Food grade brain farm
The scene in front of him was so shocking that Nan Zhou couldn't resist his curiosity. He took a few steps, holding the thin glass in his hand, and looked curiously at everything outside.
Li Yinhang also followed up nervously, imitating his appearance to hold the glass, full of doubts: "Without eyes, only a visual system, how can you see the outside from here?"
Jiang Fang stood beside Nan Zhou and took her words: "Don't you think the design here is different from other brain divisions?"
After carefully savoring the strong sense of separation between the warm fairy tale and the cold technology, as well as the display screen used to report the results of work, Li Yinhang suddenly realized: "So, this is-"
Jiang Fang tapped the glass in front of him lightly with his knuckles: "It should be an external device connected to the vision system."
"We were put into the brain, entered five specific functional areas, played five games, and finally, came to this room and delivered the task."
Li Yinhang asked another crucial question: "Then what is 'we'...?"
The three looked out side by side.
The view here is wide, so it's not hard to see that there is more than one production line on which they are located.
Most of the feeding boxes that were in a horizontal position with Nanzhou and the others were filled with light blue nutrient solution.
However, the other row of feeding boxes parallel to them is filled with another kind of nutrient solution that is dark red and similar to the color of the brain.
At first glance, those boxes are also empty.
In fact, every crate with the red liquid was full.
Each box contains a brain.
Moreover, compared to this, the red nutrient solution is in a high-speed consumption state.
An external pipeline that continuously injects fresh nutrient solution into the cube.
Even so, the nutrient solution in some crates can't keep up with the rate at which the brain can devour it.
Nan Zhou could see the state of the brain in the tank with the shortest straight-line distance from them.
It was comfortably soaked in the dark red mucus, and the small folds on the surface opened like a small mouth, like a stomach bag that was eating.
This made Nan Zhou think of the pig-like chewing sound with serious saliva that they could always hear in the brain corridor before.
What is it that is not afraid that such a way of eating will burst the stomach
The answer is, a brain without a stomach.
It sucks the nutrient fluid endlessly, instilling a "full" signal to the brain.
As if to verify Nan Zhou's guess, a machine protruded a metallic rocker arm toward one of the dark red feeding boxes.
The white locator mounted on the top of the rocker arm scans the cube in all directions, and a thin needle with a bar code-like pattern engraved on the surface is inserted into the groove on the side of the top surface of the cube.
After the verification code was scanned, the lid of the cube was opened from right above.
The mechanical rocker penetrated into the nutrient solution, firmly supported the soft base of the brain, and pulled it out without any damage.
The brain, accustomed to being in the "eating" state all the time, left the dark red nutrient solution and shrank eagerly.
But it was still placed in the feeding box No. 1920 beside Nanzhou and the others.
The strands of red nutrient solution melted away after being immersed in the blue liquid.
It can be seen that the nutrient solution of the blue liquid has a certain purification and disinfection effect, but it cannot satisfy its eating.
After shrinking in vain for a while, it found that it couldn't take in nutrients, and it quieted down.
After a while, the words on the outside of the feeding box 1920 automatically appeared.
"Name: Feed Box No. 1921"
"Specification: 90X90X90 standard feeding box"
"Level: Normal"
"Food Maturity: 30"
This level of maturity is clearly unsatisfactory.
So, it was dug out by the rocker arm again and returned to the feeding box full of dark red nutrient solution on the opposite side.
After witnessing this scene, Teacher Nan Zhou's small class also started.
He asked Li Yinhang, "Have you figured it out?"
Li Yinhang: "... um."
If you compare this place to a pig farm, everything is clear at a glance.
In the feeding box on the opposite side, there are piglets, or immature pigs.
They are not up to the mark and need to be continuously supplemented with new nutrients.
The feeding box that Nanzhou and the others are currently in has a quality inspection function, which can determine whether the brains put into it are high-grade goods that can already be sold.
This can also explain why the brain they were in, which had been chewing endlessly before, was quiet once in the middle.
It's probably like the brain just now. It was fished out once and put in a new feeding box to check its appearance and see if it meets the selling standards.
But unlike normal pig farming, the brain is a delicate food.
I also know that it is not an easy task to want this artificially bred brain to mature.
In theory, all parts and functional areas of the brain need to develop in a balanced way to be more delicious.
But the artificially cultivated brain can only artificially infuse it with a huge amount of knowledge and provide a sense of satiety.
More complex emotional information cannot be fabricated out of thin air.
This will inevitably lead to the continuous shrinkage of the brain and affect "quality control".
Combining the current situation, Nan Zhou came to the conclusion lightly: "So, these brains need external stimulation."
He didn't seem to feel that what he said had a creepy meaning: "We are the 'external stimulus'."
After listening to Nan Zhou's words, and thinking back on the way they had come, Li Yinhang couldn't help shrinking his pores and sweating back.
Is their setting in the dungeon the... employees of this brain breeding base
Moreover, it should be the kind of employees at the bottom.
The designers behind the scenes have designed a unique fairy tale playground by dividing the brain into regions.
These players, as employees, enter the game, explore, fight, and die all the way...
The purpose is to stimulate the brain to generate emotions such as loneliness, fear, sexual desire and so on that it cannot rely on external organs.
… thus making it more mature and delicious
When Li Yinhang felt cold all over, a simple console slowly appeared in the center of the small room.
There is only a blood-red induction plate on it, and a speaker.
A mechanical voice came from the speakers.
"Do you want to deliver the mission?"
Nan Zhou, Jiang Fang and Li Yinhang looked at each other, and Nan Zhou answered "yes".
A happy voice came from inside.
Just this pleasure, with a formulaic, false enthusiasm.
"Thank you, No. 12, No. 19, No. 27 'scavengers' for their outstanding contributions to the [Brain Attack] factory. It is because of your unremitting efforts that the [Brain Attack] factory's business can flourish."
"Please put your right thumb on the induction device and let it sit for fifteen seconds before teleporting."
"After taking the recovery potion, you have a 72-hour break, and then please continue to work."
"Thank you again."
Their duty as the "scavengers" of the [Brain Invasion] factory looks like it will never end.
Obviously, the fate of "scavengers" like them is that in the process of constantly entering the room, because of a mistake, they are completely killed in a certain corner of the brain, and finally, they are cooked together with the mature brain. , served to the table.
However, Nan Zhou's dungeon mission was completely over.
After each put their fingertips on the induction plate for fifteen seconds, they heard the sound of the end of the mission—
【Ding Ding Ding Dong—】

Li Yinhang: "..."
She felt that the achievement of the "fastest awakening record" was awarded to herself.
And she has reason to believe that this is a ruthless mockery of her.
This time the rewards are very large.
The broadcast continues.
The reward prompts that are constantly brushed, like a stimulant that can bring people pleasure, stimulate them continuously.
As expected of a dungeon with a difficulty level of 11.
The process of passing the krypton life is indeed a near-death experience, and correspondingly, the rewards are also staggeringly generous.

[Please choose to leave the instance within three minutes—]
Although the end of the dungeon is terrifying, when the game achievements are constantly swiping the screen, the short-term satisfaction still dilutes the fear in the bottom of my heart.
Li Yinhang stretched his waist a lot, trying to release all the pressure and anxiety he was full of with this lazy waist.
She said, "Where are we going?"
Jiang Fang glanced at Nan Zhou, and gave him the answer with a smile: "'paper gold'. Let's eat buffet."
They choose "paper gold".
to transmit.
And at the moment when the three of them finished their mission and appeared on the street of "Paper Gold" at night, it was like a stone thrown into still water.
There was a strange movement in the world channel in the game panel.
A few people were exchanging messages that ended in a tailspin.
"On the line."
"What position?"
"Paper Gold Area B17!"
The three are still unaware of this.
Only Li Yinhang, after receiving the transmission, looked around and whispered, "Why is the street so quiet?"
Hearing her casual sigh, Nan Zhou turned his eyes slightly and aimed at the storage slot on the control panel.
… very strange.
In the past, when they returned to safe spots such as "Paper Gold" and "Rust City", their item cards were basically "unusable".
But this time Nan Zhou noticed that his item bar was not closed.
He lowered his head, leaned against Jiang Fang's arm, and walked forward quietly.
Just as they moved forward, a player crouching directly above the roof slowly pulled the bolt of the gun in his hand and loaded it.
click.
This small sound, fused in the "paper gold" street full of extravagant songs, should have been as tiny as a drop of water in the sea.
Nan Zhou suddenly stopped.
He has faced this situation many times.
For months he fought against the danger lurking in the shadows, day and night.
… In the east building, three people peeped at them through the window.
In the corridor of the building on the west side, there are two people pretending to be watching the moon.
There are two on top of the head.
One of them has weapons like guns.
If they went any further, there was a man hiding in the alley ahead.
If they retreated, new followers would be added to the empty alleyway they passed by just now.
There were more footsteps coming here from another parallel street.
Li Yinhang was also a little horrified.
She just walked out of the dungeon, as if she had just stepped off the highway, and the speed of the car could not be lowered for a while.
The vigilance she brought out from the copy made her form a short-lived muscle memory.
She didn't feel right.
Nothing is right anywhere.
Therefore, when the black hole of the gun protruded from the roof of one side of the building and aimed at Nanzhou, Li Yinhang, who was looking around cowardly, was the first to see it.
She cried out, "Be careful—"
She was lying in front of Nan Zhou, instinctively wanting to push Nan Zhou away from the range.
Before she could make the next move, a dark red gunfire had already shot out of the gun barrel.
The target shifted from Nan Zhou's chest to Li Yinhang's back.
Li Yinhang felt a chill in his heart.
However, before her chills were over, she was thrown aside by Nan Zhou.
She stood unsteady and knocked her head against the graffiti-covered street wall.
At the same time, Nan Zhou tilted his head and flashed.
The bullet swept past with a chirp, nearly piercing the black hair of Nanzhou that was scattered in the night, and shot directly to the red brick behind him, splashing a piece of red dust and shattered tiles!
The unprofessional sniper looked out from the bunker, found that he missed the target, and snorted in dissatisfaction.
But before he could retract his head, Nan Zhou turned around and volleyed into the air to grab the scattered pieces of masonry.
Right in the heart!
The ambush gun took the piece of broken brick with his head, and he immediately fell to the ground with blood on his forehead, unconscious.
Nan Zhou didn't stop at all, he rushed towards the five-story building where the gun holder was, and jumped up.
Grab the gun!
Grab the gun in your hand to take the initiative!
I don't know who it is, and an angry shout broke out in the crowd: "Who is that, hurry up!"
As soon as the voice fell, a man hidden in the shadow of the neon lights in the alley rushed to drive his prop card.
… a B-grade weather card that was invaluable to him.
Stepping on the fire ladder outside the floor, Nanzhou, which was moving at a high speed to the top floor, slid under the foot, and stepped out from the edge of the tin staircase.
He grabbed it suddenly, barely grabbed the handle of the stairs, and hung it in the air on the third floor.
But the strength of his arm muscles is also rapidly losing at a terrifying speed.
He raised his head in amazement, and saw that the original crescent moon had disappeared.
Instead, it was a golden full moon.
Amid the rapid panting and the pounding heartbeat, Nan Zhou made a decisive decision and let go of the hand holding the railing.
The next moment, a phantom-like flying knife appeared in the position where Nan Zhou was hanging just now.
—The destination, was originally his heart.
Jiang Fang hurried over, opened his arms, and caught him who fell from the third floor.
The phantom dagger lost its target for the first time, fell straight like a bird, and aimed at Nan Zhou's chest again.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Nan Zhou pushed Jiang Fang away.
The moment the two rolled away from each other, the dagger slammed, and the tip hit the ground again.
If it can't hit again, this phantom dagger that can hit twice will lose its function.
Its owner hiding in the dark was about to retrieve the dagger when Nan Zhou suddenly turned back, grabbed the hilt of the dagger that was about to fly back, and used all his strength to force the dagger into his palm.
He crouched on the ground, the backs of his hands and the corners of his mouth were scratched.
A strong smell of blood filled his mouth.
In this bloody scene, his chest kept rising and falling, like a little beast that was provoked out of the wild.
The moment the blood from the corner of the mouth fell on the dagger, the restless dagger became quiet.
The people in the dark place slapped their thighs.
Damn it, I've accepted it!
How come it's so big? !
With the sound transmission on the solid concrete floor, Nan Zhou heard more intensive footsteps approaching here.
Li Yinhang clutched the corner of his forehead that had just been bruised and struggled to get up from the ground.
Suddenly, she saw a figure approaching her.
Just as she was about to draw out the dagger, she heard a nervous female voice:
"Girl, run! The person you are following is the boss who escaped from the dungeon!"
"Come to us!" :,
