Gaia Games [Unlimited]

Everyone couldn't help but fell into deep thought. Although they had never considered similar issues before, once they substituted themselves, this issue was indeed worth thinking about. If they were forced to face the same fate, then what should they do? choose?

Yao Su instantly remembered the sci-fi movie "0.7" filmed by Duan Quelou. Human beings in the movie also faced a similar fate. In the last century, an astrophysicist named Kardashev once imagined After such a level of civilization, it is divided into three levels of civilization according to the degree of control of energy by different civilizations and the total amount of energy. The first-level civilization is centered on the parent star and has mastered certain technologies and global energy, but it is still unable to explore freely. In the planetary system where it is located, the second-level civilization can get rid of the parent star and freely explore the planetary system it is in, such as the solar system. The third-level civilization can get rid of the planetary system and freely explore the star system it is in, such as the Milky Way.

According to Kardashev's theory, the earth has not yet reached the technological level of a first-level civilization, and the energy has not yet been fully developed and utilized. It can only be classified as a 0.7-level civilization. 0.7" is based on this theory to start the narrative, mainly describing the energy dilemma faced by human beings in the future. If human beings cannot leave the earth before the earth's energy is exhausted, they will be imprisoned on the earth forever. In this way, although the earth is The cradle of human civilization has also become the grave of human civilization. When energy is exhausted and technology stagnates, human civilization will eventually decline and gradually perish.

At the same time, Duan Quelou concluded: "...I don't think the core contradiction of this dungeon is the holographic online game. Industry, when people are addicted to the virtual world, they naturally don’t care about the starry sky above their heads.”

Players suddenly realized that the human beings in this dungeon have been fully satisfied in terms of material life, leaving only spiritual pursuits. If there were no holographic online games, there would definitely be more people supporting the radicals than now. After all, the journey of human beings It is the sea of ​​stars, but once there is a holographic online game, it is estimated that not many people will bother to pursue the sea of ​​stars. What is the sea of ​​stars to pursue? Is the game not fun?

According to Duan Quelou, the development and prosperity of holographic online games has diverted people's attention from the exploration of the universe, and also allowed the conservatives to suppress the radicals to the greatest extent. Over the years, the radicals in the government have been suppressed and there are very few left, but with this At the same time, civil opposition groups began to rise, and various protest movements flourished.

Wang Mingming couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that there are still people who understand!"

Even he can see that those conservatives in the government are engaging in foolish policies, using holographic online games to divert people's attention. Once the earth's resources are exhausted, human beings can only sit in a sad city with no other way out, but under the support of these conservatives Under the brainwashing policy, there are still many people with lofty ideals, trying to wake up the same kind who are addicted to the virtual world. They are like warriors who are constantly running to turn the tide when the building is about to collapse.

Yao Su also nodded and said, "It turns out that there are such deep-seated demands behind those opposition parties..."

Le Zhaoling sighed and said: "It sounds like this dungeon is no less difficult than that of the Earth Company. No matter how sober and clear these opposition parties are, compared with the powerful energy of the government, they are nothing more than a fly shaking a tree. Knowing to enjoy the moment, the power of the opposition party is but a spark."

Yao Su smiled and said, "A single spark can start a prairie fire. You don't know many things if you don't do it. What's more, don't you have us now? With us, they may not lose, but the most important question now is, is Prime Minister Lu Qidong really good?" do you died?"

Duan Quelou replied: "I was there at the time and saw him die with my own eyes, but... maybe not."

Wang Mingming was immediately confused: "What do you mean? Is he dead or not? Is he Schrödinger's cat? In a superposition state of dead and not dead?"

This time, Duan Quelou didn't answer, he just looked up at the electronic screen not far away, and he didn't know if it was a coincidence, but at this moment, the electronic screen suddenly lit up and began to broadcast the news: "...the attack on the chief's mansion The case is still under investigation, and the number of casualties has reached 44. Prime Minister Lu issued a strong condemnation of this terrorist attack..."

In the next second, that face that looked exactly like Duan Quelou's appeared on the big screen. Lu Qidong was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and he was completely unscathed. His eyes were firm and his tone was calm.

"I am deeply saddened and regretful about this terrorist attack...I strongly condemn the opposition party for this attack. Although I support citizens' freedom of speech, these freedoms must not threaten national security and social stability, so , I will formally declare war on the opposition on behalf of the government...this is to defend our country and defend our freedom!"

Wang Mingming was stunned: "This guy is too shameless, isn't he? The person who attacked him was not the opposition party at all! It's a good job!"

Yao Su said indifferently: "It's all about taking the opportunity to start a war. Is it important which side is the sneak attacking person? I think even the shooting case of the protest demonstration today was directed and acted by themselves. This time the attack on the chief's mansion , just gave them an excellent excuse."

Before today, although the opposition party had a high sense of existence, because their methods were not violent, at most it was a demonstration and sit-in protest, and ordinary people would not dislike them. Coupled with the attack on the prime minister's residence just now, it is enough to make ordinary people resent and boycott the opposition party. Coupled with the official seal and characterization, the opposition party may now be reduced to a demon in the eyes of the public.

Wang Mingming naturally understands this truth. After all, this kind of thing has happened too many times in history. He obviously wanted to find an excuse to start a war, but he just wanted to find a high-sounding reason. What kind of justice is he calling himself? He shook his head in the battle, "Politics is dark, but here comes the question, how come Lu Qidong not only didn't die, but didn't even have a minor injury? Is life so hard?"

Yao Su was also a little puzzled at first, but in a blink of an eye, he suddenly thought of a clue that Duan Quelou had revealed before: "...it's a clone!"

As Duan Quelou said just now, Lu Qidong originally planned to replace the real Chu Linqiu with a clone of Chu Linqiu to disintegrate the internal camp of the opposition party. Now that the level of technology has developed to this point, Lu Qidong, as the prime minister, has one or two clones. It's normal for people, right?

When he thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt. Let alone this dungeon, even the heads of government in their real world have to have a few doubles. Since this dungeon has cloning technology, then clone a few prime ministers just in case One is too normal, Lu Qidong is not only a political leader, but also a spiritual leader, if he dies suddenly, it will be a big trouble, clone a few prime ministers for emergency, if the former one dies, the latter one will be on top.

Wang Mingming slapped his thigh when he heard the words: "That's right! Why didn't I think of that? Clone! Definitely a clone!"

Duan Quelou nodded: "It is indeed possible."

Yao Su touched his chin: "Then the question is, since Lu Qidong has several clones, is the previous Lu Qidong really the real Lu Qidong? Could it be that one is actually a clone?"

A gust of cold wind blew by, and Wang Mingming touched his arm subconsciously: "Damn it, I'm suddenly thinking carefully about what's going on..."

Yao Su was very calm: "It doesn't matter if he is real or not, it's over if he does it, but since Lu Qidong is a resource for sustainable development, then we should find a way to let God Duan replace him!"

Since one Lu Qidong was killed and there would be another Lu Qidong, why didn't they just fish in troubled waters and make the situation even more chaotic?

Le Zhaoling pondered: "Since the captain chooses to infiltrate the opposition party's stronghold, we can also choose to infiltrate the government's stronghold. Our troops will be divided into two groups, and both hands must be grasped and the other hand must be hardened!"

Yao Su narrowed his eyes slightly: "I just don't know what Han Jiangxue and the Rosicrucians are planning to do now... They don't look like they want to support the government army."

Duan Quelou suddenly said: "Maybe they plan to get rid of us players first, and then choose the camp. After all, there is no rule in the dungeon that can't do this."

Yao Su thinks it makes sense. The dungeon has never stipulated that the choice of faction and player confrontation must be carried out at the same time. In fact, players can choose to fight internally before clearing the dungeon, or they can choose to jointly clear the dungeon first and then engage in confrontation between players. The former is risky, and if you are not careful, you will die together before the start of the game. The latter has a high possibility of overturning. Talking about cooperation with your opponent is tantamount to seeking skins from tigers, so very few players will do this... Those who dare to choose the two are usually against themselves. A person who is extremely confident in his strength.

Thinking of this, Yao Su couldn't help but twitched the corners of his lips, and smiled mockingly: "Is this the so-called that we must first settle down when we fight against the outside world? I'm not afraid that we will kill them first, even if they lose this time, as long as they Survival points are enough, and you don’t necessarily die.”

This was the case in the Earth Company dungeon before. Although Han Jiangxue lost in the player confrontation, because her survival points were high enough, after deducting [-] survival points, she managed to leave the dungeon and survived.

"This kind of enemy is really annoying. She will never die. No matter whether this dungeon is the final dungeon, she can't let her out alive..." Yao Su couldn't help but sighed, "Although I'm very kind , but rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, it can’t be my fault, really.”

Wang Mingming suddenly hesitated to speak: "Mr. Yao, you... just be kind, rabbit... are you sure?"

Yao Su turned to look at Duan Quelou: "What do you think? Am I not?"

Wang Mingming laughed loudly: "God Duan, what do you think?"

Duan Quelou nodded: "You are."

Wang Mingming choked suddenly, and said quietly, "...well, I shouldn't have asked for dog food!"
