"Who is speaking?"
Cheng Shaofeng had just had this thought, but before he could say it out loud, a response came to his mind.
"Master, I am Zero, the intelligent butler of the Natural Disaster Nanobase. The base is now stationed in your head and can display the base's functions through retinal projection. Do you want to show it?"
"exhibit?"
Cheng Shaofeng was originally confused in the dim dungeon, but suddenly his eyes lit up.
It really shines.
A layer of azure operating interface was superimposed on the dim dungeon.
It’s just like the top AR (augmented reality) technology in science fiction movies.
Even with his eyes closed he could see clear images on his eyelids.
Natural Disaster Nanobase
Energy: 0.1% (supplementary energy, source: bioenergy)
Available robots: Low-level nanoengineers (basic construction robots with extremely low energy consumption, which can build some infrastructure using resources)
Functions available at the base: Nano construction, quantum surfing, clone projection, information editor
Constructible buildings: Clone production warehouse, loot generator, attribute conversion tower
Number of clones stored in base: 3
"All the functions of the base have been displayed. Master, is there anything I can do for you?"
Cheng Shaofeng was still a little confused, but given the current situation... he could obviously only rely on this nano base of unknown origin.
He touched his belly.
"The people who just captured me must be the plunderers from the wasteland... They seem very rude. I need to escape from here. Can you help me dig a hole with the robot and run away?"
Zero: "You can do what you said, but... the energy in the base is too low to support you digging to a safe location."
Cheng Shaofeng: "Then tell me what you can do with this little bit of electricity..."
Looking at the red flashing energy bar with 0.1% battery on the screen in front of him, Cheng Shaofeng wanted to plug a wire into his brain to charge it to 100%.
Unable to recharge the empty red energy bar, Cheng Shaofeng felt like ants were crawling on his body.
Uncomfortable!
Zero: "Currently, we can perform three operations with extremely low energy consumption: quantum surfing, clone projection, and information editor."
"Quantum Surfing: Through the quantum entanglement between you and the network, the base can help you connect to the website where the signal was last stored on the Internet. After connecting once, the quantum signal source can be locked... ... We have detected that the website you last connected to was Baidu Tieba."
Cheng Shaofeng recalled it for a moment and remembered it.
Before he came here, he copied someone else's BD in the Diablo III forum and was preparing to create a new account to try it out.
"So... you mean, I can go to a forum on Earth and chat now?"
Zero: "Yes."
Cheng Shaofeng's mouth twitched slightly: "What a boring function. What about the clone projection and information editor?"
Zero: "The base's clone projection technology allows you to summon the human consciousness of the Earth to descend into the clone bodies of the base. You have the highest rule authority for the clones. It is recommended that you output information to the clones through the information editor so that they feel like they are playing a game, thereby better utilizing the value of the clones."
"What the hell!? Combo skills? Summoning players?"
At this point, Cheng Shaofeng finally understood the functions that the Natural Disaster Nanobase could currently use.
Summon the people on Earth to work for him!
You know, players are the most curious, hardworking, brave and shameless group of people in the world!
If we tell them that they are traveling through time, they might feel restrained and unable to move forward.
But as for games... the players are an endless supply of leeks!
"Fortunately... the last website I visited was Tieba, not Shenyexue.com, otherwise what's the point of summoning so many teachers? Just to have some fun before dying?"
He needs strong teammates to rescue him!
So...there was the scene on Tieba before.
People are in a foreign world, locked in a small dark room, and are about to be comforted by a green-skinned strong man. Hurry up and come to the big teammate to save him!
He chose the strongest people in the forum.
He has a clear mind, solid logic, and extensive gaming experience, and has done a lot of cool and tough things.
Through communication and registration on the forum, he locked in three people.
African terrier, ghost-faced fox, and Lin Tang.
A very active person in the bar.
Not only does he have experience in playing one game, he is also proficient in various survival games and his overall gaming skills are extremely high.
"By the way, where are our three clones? Are they in my head too?"
Zero: "No, it's buried where you got the watch."
Cheng Shaofeng: "... Well, at least you don't have to be trapped here like me."
"Alas... I hope they can rescue me." Cheng Shaofeng sighed and said to himself.
"No one will come to save you, so just give up on this idea!"
Suddenly, a man's hoarse voice came from the side.
Cheng Shaofeng's hair stood on end. When he was thrown into this dungeon, there was no one around him, only a few... corpses that had been tortured beyond recognition.
"who!?"
... ...
"A courier!"
“Oh, here it comes.”
Pu Shenqi hung up the phone and went out to pick up the express.
He was just chatting with a designer from Penguin Games, asking if any company has made a 100% virtual reality game yet.
The designer’s answer was very philosophical: “What a coincidence, we are also looking for it…”
Pu Shenqi took a large cube box the size of a basketball from the courier.
When I opened it, I saw... it was a black helmet.
It took me 3 seconds to realize what this thing was.
"What the hell? It's already here??? I just filled out the information and it's only been an hour!"
Unbelievable!
Don’t even mention next-day delivery, it will arrive within the hour!
He took it, plugged in the power and network cable interfaces, and put it on.
My eyes went dark, then bright again, and my vision was hazy, with only one line of words in the middle that was clear:
"The beta version of "End of the World OL" is waiting for other players to come online... 1/3."
At this time, he cannot go online and can only enter after three people are gathered.
He took off his helmet and opened the group chat as quickly as possible.
Ghost-faced Fox: "Haha~ They actually sent me a helmet, and I didn't even have to pay for the courier. Things are getting more and more interesting..."
Lin Tang: "Damn? I thought I was the first one to receive it?"
"By the way, didn't they say there were three spots for the internal test? Who did Brother Shao give that spot to?"
African Thin Dog: "My, my, my! It's here with me. This is really weird. I remember you, Lin Tang, are in Guangzhou? I'm in Kyoto, and Fox is in the Northeast. I can receive the helmet in just one hour. This...?"
Shadow Night God: "It's nothing, just stocking the goods in advance. You are all in the city, right? So one hour is normal... But, you really don't charge for delivery?"
All three gave an affirmative answer.
Shadow Night God hesitated for a moment, then typed out a line of words: "Okay... Another new scam. The scammers keep up with the times. There is a high probability that there are paid items in the helmet. The three of you have fallen into the scam."
After a moment of silence, Pu Shenqi formed a small group of three with the Ghost-faced Fox and Lin Tang.
"Whether it's a scam or not, we'll know once the three of us go online together."
Lin Tang: "Okay, but let's make a deal. If it's not fun... you both have to help me test the mod."
Ghost-faced Fox: "Interesting, interesting. See you online."
The three of them put on black helmets at the same time in different cities.
The azure signal light flashes.
The images and perceptions before the eyes of the three people were like a mirror being hit by a sharp object. Dozens of spider webs spread out from one point, and then with a bang, they turned into countless fragments and fell into the void.
In the absolute darkness, the five senses of the three people slowly reorganized.
The next moment.
In the dark brown soil of the garbage dump.
“Bang!”
Three palms broke out of the ground.
