Consciousness returned to the real body from the virtual world. Lin Chi disconnected, unbuttoned the restraints on his body, opened the safety lock of the game compartment from inside, and slowly pushed open the hatch door.

It is midnight in the real world. The light in the living room is very dark, but there are neon lights on the streets that are cast from outside the window, so that the house will not be pitch black.

Lin Chi moved his stiff body for a moment, walked quickly to the window, and stared at the view outside the window.

What comes into view is a huge forest composed of steel and cement.

Even at midnight, the lights in the city are still bright, and the heavy smoke screen rising from the surface makes the dark-toned steel city below dim.

The tower-shaped building made of metal stands in the center of a circular city, with ghostly dark reds on the streets, like a torrent of lava.

Today's weather is as bad as ever.

By 2035, the clear sky will no longer be seen in this industrial city that was once severely polluted. Although the official efforts to control pollution through various measures, it has not achieved much results. It has only turned the city from being "unsuitable for human habitation" to a level that can barely be able to live in.

Lin Chi glanced at the transparent screen on the cabinet by the wall. The weather tomorrow displayed on it was indeed haze again. He sighed a long time and walked into the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face.

Once back to the real world, this lazy "old salted fish" suddenly returned to its original state, and was listless, and it didn't look the same person as the slaughtering ruler in the game.

After washing up, Lin Chi rubbed his eyes and returned to the bedroom. He saw an old dance robot possessed by Frankenstein leaning against the wall, and the red lights on his head kept flashing.

Lin Chi walked over, looked down at the rough-shaped robot, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"The real world is not as interesting as the online world." The robot shook his little head and made a sound without emotion: "I want to go back."

"Will you go back and die?" Lin Chi smiled: "I have encountered security guards in the game. Guess what will happen after you meet him?"

——After being blocked in the wall, the antivirus software account called Magic Conch did not appear on the kill list. It may have been deprived of system permissions and forced to exit the game.

After Frankenstein's true identity was exposed, antivirus software has entered this game. If the virus continues to play the game, once it is discovered by the antivirus software, it may never be able to escape!

“…”

The robot shook his head helplessly, and the speaker made a sound again: "This world is very boring."

"That's because you're only staying in this room. I can take you out for a walk when you have time." Lin Chi smiled and added: "Then you will find that it's not interesting outside than at home."

Without waiting for the robot to answer, Lin Chi changed the subject and asked, "By the way, did you notice any abnormalities when you were in the game? For example, 'NPC may be operated by real people'?"

After playing two games, Lin Chi's doubts about this game were not only not eliminated, but further deepened. After all, he knew very well that with his current technical level, he should not be able to add a large number of self-aware Ai to the game.

Hearing this, the robot shook his head again and decisively gave a negative answer: "It's not like that."

"Why are you so sure?" Lin Chi asked.

"I am a program born in the electronic world and can see the interfaces of all characters in the game." Frankenstein explained: "The player has a red interface that connects the real body, and those NPCs have nothing on them."

"You are cheating blatantly..." Lin Chi sighed.

Hearing this, he finally understood the reason why Frankenstein maintained an unbeaten record in the game: in the Battle Royale type game, being able to identify players hidden in the NPC crowd at a glance will undoubtedly gain a great advantage.

"By the way, have you invaded the internal system of Pulse Entertainment?" Lin Chi continued to ask.

What is the origin of the "Pulse Entertainment Company" that developed War Paradise has become one of the topics that players talk about on the forum.

After all, the development technology of intrabrain imaging games is not yet popular. Only large companies with strong financial resources and talents can make this type of game.

The popular games on the market now are all from studios under those major companies. The reason why players are surprised is that the name of the so-called "pulse entertainment company" has never been heard before.

It would be fine if the game was developed for leisure and entertainment, but a game of "War Paradise" level is obviously not something that a small company can do.

According to the information provided on the official website of Pulse Entertainment, this newly born game company has branches in various continents and has the qualifications to operate online games in many countries. It does not require other agents, but operates games directly on its own, which is basically equivalent to self-producing and selling.

The two branches of "Pulse Entertainment" in Asia are located in China and India respectively. As for where their headquarters are located, the official website has not mentioned it.

"I tried to invade the database of Pulse Entertainment." The dance robot nodded, shaking his slender arms like a numb rod: "But I can't get past their firewall."

Hearing this, Lin Chi frowned thoughtfully, recalling a news title I saw online a few months ago: "Shock! The tdk-131 virus breaks through the US Pentagon protection system."

Although ordinary game companies will also pay attention to protecting databases and servers, the protection level is still quite different from the military's impregnable firewall.

If Frankenstein is right, it means that the firewall strength of Pulse Entertainment Company is even higher than the military-grade protection standards!

Obviously, maintaining this level of protection undoubtedly requires a lot of time and energy, and the maintenance cost is also very high. Since this company has not done any human experiments of "brainwashing a real person and throwing it into the game to simulate NPC", why do they need such solid protection?

Ordinary protective measures cannot reach this level. Is this company originally related to the military?

Thinking of this, Lin Chi frowned even more, and he strode to the bedroom window, opened the curtains and stared at the street lights downstairs, taking a deep breath, as if he was about to enter the "reasoning mode". Then...

"It's better to go to bed."

A feeling of sleepiness surged in my heart, and the "old salted fish" who was unable to lift his energy fell heavily on the bed. After closing his eyes, he soon fell asleep.
