Dream Guide - #381 - Chapter 381 Box·God·NPC
Two weeks later, the second-generation space box sample was flown from Germany and sent to Mei Yiqiu’s laboratory.
Compared with the first-generation coffin box, the second-generation product is much smaller and is very close to the popular virtual reality helmets on the market. However, it has to cover almost the entire head, including the nose and mouth, which may affect the gaming experience.
In order to make it look good, the designer probably referenced Marvel movies. The entire helmet has a very obvious metallic texture, a bit like Iron Man, but in fact it is very light in weight.
Mei Yiqiu played with the helmet in his hands for a while, with a smile on his face and seemed very satisfied.
“The German guy’s workmanship is really impeccable!” he said, handing the helmet to the person next to him.
These people are all core members participating in the Dream Guide project and have already passed the Leicester signature test. If they were placed elsewhere, they would all be famous scientists. Only the edge is far away, and as a young man in his early twenties standing in the middle, it seems a bit awkward.
However, these scientists did not despise or alienate him because of his youth. Instead, they were quite polite to him. When the helmet was passed to Bian Ziyuan’s hand, the coldness in his tentacles made him feel as if he had picked up a piece of ice black iron that had been dormant for thousands of years in a certain game.
He gently stroked the titanium alloy surface of the helmet and the soft lining made of an unknown material. It was completely impossible to tell that this helmet contained the most complex black technological achievements in the world today – when you put it on, You can create your own world.
Bian Ziyuan has already experienced the first-generation product, and the feeling of lying in that coffin is not good. He believed that no player would be willing to try that kind of game experience. The feeling of insecurity when the coffin lid was closed was really unspeakably uncomfortable.
This one is much better now. It would be even more perfect if it could cover less of the head, such as exposing the mouth and nose.
“Go and try it.” Mei Yiqiu said.
“Ah?” Bian Ziyuan was startled, “Me?”
“It’s not you, do you want us bad old men to try something new?” Mei Yiqiu put the pipe in his mouth again, but did not light it, and smiled as he spoke.
Bian Ziyuan nodded and sat on the experimental chair. During the internal testing phase, there are still quite strict procedures for the use of space boxes. For example, the space box cannot be used alone and must be accompanied by at least one person to take care of it. The purpose of this is to prevent the brain from abnormal phenomena due to abnormal stimulation. In addition to the player’s dream records in the Dream Guide game memory, the space box will also completely reflect a person’s brainwave data to the computer.
According to Professor Mei, this thing is not only a game prop, but also an advanced medical device. If there is any problem with the human brain, it is not a bit better than magnetic resonance examination.
Bian Ziyuan put the helmet on his head and reached out to touch a small origin on the back of his head, just below the ear. A bright light appeared in front of his eyes, like an IMAX screen in a movie theater. But of course Bian Ziyuan knew that this was not true. It was just the machine reading his eye and facial information to confirm his identity.
This is not the first time he has entered the Dream Guide game. His account information has already been in the system, so there is no need to enter identity information like a new user.
The identity recognition of the second-generation space box is obviously much faster than that of the first-generation product, and it passes in just a flash. Bian Ziyuan heard that the identity recognition of the third-generation product will no longer use the external characteristics of the human body as identification information. When designing the plan, scientists disagreed on which solution to adopt, genetic identification or consciousness identification, and finally decided A two-pronged approach.
Consciousness recognition is a unique function of the space box, and it is also the prerequisite for the Dream Guide game to be able to distinguish whether a person has been invaded. The moment the player enters the space box and activates it, there will be a brief separation between the human consciousness and the body, which is called the “black box” stage. At this time, human consciousness cannot find any memory and is restored to the most original consciousness, which is the primary consciousness. The first reaction of each primary consciousness body after entering the black box can be regarded as the basic characteristics of the consciousness body. By recording this basic characteristics, different individual consciousnesses can be identified.
The third-generation space box will also have built-in nano-level DNA verification equipment. Players will not feel anything when their DNA information is read. Locking the player’s identity information through consciousness recognition and genetic recognition will be the most important basis for judging whether a human individual has encountered an invasion.
The time in the black box stage is very short, too short for humans to perceive, and only quantum-level computers can capture the information. After the black box stage, the game data will be converted into quantum drop signals under high-frequency laser pulses to stimulate the brain nerve center, thereby simulating the real environment and human body sensations.
At this time, the player’s consciousness has returned and he can read his own memories normally, starting to build a subconscious world just like a dream. Another significance of the game is that every player becomes a lucid dreamer, able to dream clearly and clearly remember the content and feelings of the dream after waking up.
Bian Ziyuan once envied Aoki. After working in Mei Yiqiu’s laboratory for a period of time, he gradually learned some things about awakened people like Aoki. They are born to have lucid dreams, have strong mental power, and can come and go freely in the dream world. Of course, some of them are just his guesses and have not been confirmed.
When he showed interest in this, Mei Yiqiu said: “What does this mean? With the space box, everyone is a spiritual master.”
After trying it several times, Bian Ziyuan gradually understood what Mei Yiqiu said. In the Dream Guide game, you can really control everything and create a world of your own. He believes that after this game is launched, it will become popular all over the world, and no one can resist the temptation to turn themselves into God.
Just imagine, in the darkness and chaos, you say you want light, and then there is light. You hold wind, rain, thunder and lightning in your hands, step on the stars and sea, turn rivers and seas upside down, and crush the sky. Everything is just a thought of yours. How exciting that would be!
However, Bian Ziyuan knew that this game had a deeper meaning, which was the underlying rules of the game. Even if you are God, you must obey.
When God expands his world to unexpandable boundaries, when countless God’s worlds collide together, God becomes a mortal, players will return to NPCs again, and the world enters a new round of reincarnation. .
Therefore, Bian Ziyuan never believed that human beings could break through their own destiny, except for Mei Yiqiu.
He vaguely felt that this gray-haired, sometimes amiable, sometimes grumpy old professor did not belong to the NPC sequence – he was probably a protagonist, or one of the protagonists.
