His Majesty the System saw the original host coming out of that weird cocoon and was about to rush forward to recognize him when he suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Is that that big bastard? Why does he look different? It seems more dangerous and more annoying!
Xiao Mo changed into a set of clothes and came out. He was hit by the cold wind and shivered. When he looked at the white snow in his eyes, he blurted out: "Is the earth destroyed?"
"No." The system made a sound.
Xiao Mo turned around and saw the miniature jellyfish floating in the air, "... Your Majesty?"
"It's me. Let's talk about it. Can you let me return to your body?" The outside world is too dangerous.
"No." Xue Lihong put away the remaining cocoons and rejected the system mercilessly.
The system wanted to say that I was not asking about you, but it also knew the influence this person had on Xiao Mo. It did not dare to say anything to him, but asked Xiao Mo again: "Is it really not possible?"
Xiao Mo heard the system's voice that was an octave lower and wanted to laugh: "Have you gotten rid of the control of the mother system?"
"...No, but don't worry about it for now."
"How long is this temporary?" Xue Lihong came over.
It's hard for the system to answer. The details of this will depend on the mood of the bright spots above, but it has found a way to disconnect from the parent system, as long as it is upgraded again.
"Isn't this a paradox?" Xue Lihong laughed after hearing the system's explanation. "You always need to be connected to the Internet to upgrade, but once you are connected to the Internet, you will be tracked by the parent system. This is an insoluble contradiction."
The system puffed up its non-existent chest: "I have already thought of a way. I will make a better and more complex maze during this time than last time, so that once connected to the Internet, I can use the maze to delay the mother system from finding me. Here As long as I can successfully upgrade during this period, I can unilaterally disconnect from the parent system."
Xue Lihong refused to give in: "What you said are all assumptions. If you can't make a better maze than last time before going online, if your maze is invalid for the mother system, if your upgrade doesn't go smoothly, if you upgrade after You can't disconnect from the parent system, so if one of these four fails, my boss will be implicated by you."
The system failed, it couldn't argue.
Seeing the pitiful softness of the miniature jellyfish, Xiao Mo couldn't help but pull Xue Lihong to ask him to calm down. He then spoke to the system in a harmonious voice: "Your Majesty, can you tell me why you want to come back again?" Into my body?"
The system answered honestly: "There are two elements for my upgrade. First, it requires the recycler to complete the task. Second, it requires a lot of energy. And my upgrade is not a step-by-step upgrade, but to exceed the permissions of the parent system and modify some The kind of central rule, then I need more energy.”
"Do you have to be inside me to do both of these things?"
"No, as long as you and I keep a relatively close contact. But, well, it's too dangerous for me outside. Even if I don't live in you, I still need a carrier, but which carrier can be better than you, with you Now, those light spots will never bother me. In addition, there is another benefit to letting me enter your body. After I left, did you find that you can no longer hide the excess energy in your body? "
Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong looked up at it together.
The system is confident, "You are still too weak now. You are completely unable to control the huge energy in your body, let alone control it freely. If you let me return to your body, I can help you control the energy dissipation. If you bleed, I can Recover all the energy in your blood and ensure that no creature or machine will notice your specialness."
Xiao Mo looked at Xue Lihong. Without mentioning other shortcomings, this alone was enough to make his heart flutter. He didn't want to be surrounded by hundreds of mutated creatures after being slightly injured in the future, let alone provoke another super monster. The most important thing is that if he cannot be injured, it means that he can no longer fight on the front line. Every time something happens, he can only hide behind Xiao Hong, which he cannot accept no matter what.
Xue Lihong pondered for a moment and asked the system: "You just said you don't have to enter the boss's body, right? As long as a close connection can be established, right?"
The system reluctantly replied: "That's true, but..."
"Can that bracelet be your carrier?" Xue Lihong quickly expressed her thoughts without waiting for the system to raise objections: "I think you should have a way to modify that bracelet, and the boss can't do without the function of that bracelet. , after you use the bracelet as a carrier, he will be even less likely to leave you. In this way, you can still be closely connected at all times, and you can also use the bracelet to absorb the energy of your boss."
"It's not absorbing, it's recycling, recycling what he doesn't need." The system was determined not to let Xue Lihong discredit itself, and at the same time, it carefully considered the pros and cons.
"I need a lot of energy to transform the bracelet." The system said after thinking again and again, "My current energy is only enough for me to maintain basic operation."
"Will it do any harm to my boss?"
"He won't be able to use energy to repair during this period, and his own recovery will be slower, so it's best not to get him injured."
"about how long?"
"Twenty-four hours maximum."
Xiao Mo said that he could accept this little time.
Although Xue Lihong didn't want the system to come back, the benefits it offered made them unable to refuse. At least until Xiao Mo could control his energy leakage, they couldn't leave the system. Helpless, Xue Lihong could only admit this, but he did not forget the last warning system: "You must ensure that you can withdraw from my boss's body at any time, and you must not cause any harm to him."
His Majesty the System swallowed his anger and said: "This time it is not a complete boarding, but only a partial one. You can leave at any time. I guarantee that it will not cause any harm to Xiao Mo when you leave. It is equivalent to the portable optical brain that everyone in the Helushe Galaxy has, and besides me Apart from helping Xiao Mo connect to the interstellar network, other functions are much more powerful than ordinary optical brains. Even the military-customized optical brain is not as good as me. Of course, I mean after I continue to upgrade and crack all the obstacles in the program."
His Majesty the System said the last sentence very quietly. Xiao Mo smiled and stretched out his arm with a bracelet.
Xue Lihong remembered the name of the Helushe Galaxy. This was the second time the system mentioned this galaxy.
In fact, His Majesty the System still underestimates himself. It is a professionally customized portable system that was put into the earth's amusement park by developers as a hidden reward. Ordinary optical computers do not have the intelligence or functions like it. Probably only the military's portable system that specializes in training high-level soldiers can be compared with it.
Of course, the developers put a lot of restrictions on the system rules when launching these systems to ensure that the recyclers and breeders of the earth cannot use the system to do too much and can only be manipulated by the system. In addition, in order to prevent people on earth from controlling the system and using it to gain knowledge beyond earth civilization, all systems being dropped do not contain knowledge systems. The database only contains relevant knowledge related to the mission and that developers need to instill in advance for development. The developers even set a self-destruct command for all systems. Once they fall into the hands of earthlings and cannot be controlled by earthlings, they will immediately destroy themselves.
But who would have thought that there would be a person with repair powers on the earth, and a super being like a super bug like a light spot would emerge? It actually made a rigid system that was completely impossible to escape from control have feelings and desires that didn't want to disappear, and in this way, step by step, it reached the point where it wanted to completely get rid of the control of the mother system.
No matter what, when a portable system that is more powerful than an ordinary optical brain is out of control, it will inevitably have a certain impact on the development of the earth, and this degree is directly proportional to the degree of affection between it and the earth's host.
Now our arrogant System Majesty has taken the taboo and most feared step of all advanced civilizations. It has repositioned itself as the portable optical brain of the earthling Xiao Mo.
The definitions of portable optical computers and portable systems are completely different in the smart world. The most basic point is that the portable optical brain is required to serve its owner 100%, not to cause any harm to the owner, and to do its best to meet all the requirements of the owner.
Xiao Mo doesn't know this yet, but it doesn't matter. When he encounters a problem that neither he nor Xue Lihong can solve, he will definitely ask His Majesty the System. And even if His Majesty only solves one problem out of ten, over time, the rest will The results can also be imagined.
Time returns to the present.
His Majesty the System entered the bracelet and began to make extensive modifications to the bracelet. For this reason, all the items in the bracelet were thrown out.
After discussing with Xiao Mo, Xue Lihong simply decided to rest for a day and wait for the system to complete the modification of the bracelet before setting off.
The two were too lazy to look for another place and directly used the half-repaired Geno Company aircraft as temporary housing.
Xue Lihong, who had been crying about hunger since she woke up, saw that there was no danger around her, so she couldn't help but crawled into the small snow mountain formed by the corpse of the King of Alien Beasts - he didn't want Xiao Mo to see him during the meal and force him to kill him. Rush back to the aircraft.
Xiao Mo didn't particularly want to see his Xiaohong eating, so he smiled and promised not to peek at him.
With nothing to do, Xiao Mo re-counted all the items thrown out by His Majesty.
There are still too few items for winter, so we need to focus on collecting them.
Normally, most of the food is left for the team and the family before leaving. They don't bring much, so pay attention to this.
There are also other weapons such as nail guns. There are not many nails left. There are still more than a dozen gunpowder guns - all of which he picked up and repaired. There are very few bullets in stock, which will become less and less with more use. consumables.
Xiao Mo originally thought that there were a lot of things stuffed in the bracelet, but after taking inventory, he found that there wasn't much. Looking at the thermometer again, it has already exceeded the highest value that can be measured for mercury temperature, which means that the current temperature is at least below minus 39 degrees.
Xiao Mo raised his head and looked into the distance, looking at the vast world, and then looked up at the lightning clouds in the sky, feeling sad.
If the sun doesn't come out and the temperature gets lower day by day, what will the plants do
Without plants, there would be no crops. Without crops, what would humans eat
"I hope the lightning cloud will disappear soon." Xiao Mo murmured a prayer.
"You'd better not expect that." The system said.
Xiao Mo raised his eyebrows, "Can you speak now?"
"I'm an intelligent system. If I can't be distracted and multi-purpose, what's the point of being intelligent?" His Majesty the System said proudly.
Xiao Mo asked with a smile: "Why did you say that just now?"
"If there were no lightning clouds, the big storm would not have been forcibly terminated in the middle..." the system said about its findings in the sky.
Xiao Mo was surprised, "You mean the lightning cloud has become the protective film of the earth?"
"That's pretty much what it means. Otherwise, what came down was not dozens of fireballs, but dozens of super greedy and cruel powerful players. Think about how players treat NPCs when you play games. Those alien players look at You guys are just like watching NPCs, especially if you kill you, you can drop treasures."
"What kind of treasure can we drop?" Xiao Mo couldn't understand.
"There are many. For example, alloy particles, which are the lowest level of energy. And the conversion energy you have studied is actually the compression energy of hundreds of alloy particles. Of course, according to normal gameplay, in order to maximize profits, players generally The Earthlings who produce alloy particles will not be killed, but will be raised in captivity so that they can provide him with alloy particles for a long time. However, this method of playing is very time-consuming, and some individual players are unwilling to play this way and would rather kill the goose to obtain the eggs."
"In addition, the players who come here basically know that there are recyclers and breeders among the people on earth. Both of them have portable systems. Not to mention the system itself, the various rewards given by the system are also very attractive to the players. In other words , recyclers and breeders are equivalent to bosses on earth, and the difficulty of knocking them down is different depending on the level. But it is undeniable that the higher the level of recyclers and breeders, the player's profit from knocking them down will be less. The more. Think about what those players will do to find out who the recyclers and breeders are among the people on Earth."
The system hesitated for a moment and then said: "In addition to players who want to get treasures quickly, there are also players in research categories and special categories. They will be curious about the people on earth and will capture them as guinea pigs for various experiments. There are also some... who are not shy about being cold and cold, ahem, they don't mind mating with Earthlings, or letting Earthlings mate with their pets or war beasts."
The more the system spoke, the darker Xiao Mo's face turned.
"You said the second group of players also came in and are now in the sky?"
"Yes. But you don't have to worry about them. They basically have no good end. Whether they can survive depends entirely on the light spot and the energy they can accept."
"But they will come again in the future, and the light spot can't stay in the sky forever, right?"
"Players will definitely come back. Developers have paid such a high price for development and have not recovered their initial investment. How could they just abandon the earth like this? Especially... I think the information about the light spots has now been transmitted back to the Helusher galaxy. As long as the developers Once we learn about the light point, we will definitely send someone here.”
"Will the light spots be captured?"
The system sneered, "If elemental life is really so easy to capture, it won't be so precious. It's just that when developers discover that the earth not only has this kind of magical life, but there are so many of them, they will definitely be less able to give up on the earth. But this pair The Earth is also a little good, if developers find so much elemental life but find it impossible to capture them, maybe they will suspend the development of the Earth and switch to protective care."
"In other words, they will guard the outer space of the earth until they figure out a way to capture and use the light spots?" Xiao Mo asked.
"Yes. So I ask you not to pray that the lightning cloud disappears. Because if the lightning cloud always exists, those developers will not be able to enter the earth and can only find a way in outer space. But if the lightning cloud disappears and the light points return to everywhere on the earth, then Developers and players will flock to the earth. At that time, the developers may directly eliminate all intelligent creatures on the earth, that is, human beings, in order to eliminate future troubles."
Xiao Mo was shocked, but he also admitted that the system's speculation was likely to come true.
However, if the lightning cloud does not disappear, the sun does not come out, and the temperature continues to drop, human beings and various creatures on the earth will still perish.
This is also a paradox.
What on earth should they do? Where is the way out for the earth
