Doomsday Jigsaw Game

(Because the Silver League can’t be used randomly, the completion progress is 13/100. Thanks to the leader of the book friend Mr. Leng 12345 for the reward, great!)

It was as if he had traveled to a world outside the tower by teleporting the stele. When Bai Wu opened his eyes, what he saw was a blood-red mountain of garbage.

[This distorted soul is easy to correct. In a sense, it has not yet reached the level that can be described as "distorted", because it is only the early stage of Raou virus. In the world you go to, as long as you can understand everything Corresponding things, you can solve this problem. 】

It's like entering a new scene, and the notes will always give you some general hints.

There are many broken mechanical wrecks piled up on the garbage mountain. Unlike the garbage mountain in the real machine city in the real world, the wreckage here is dripping with oil and more congested. So that the garbage piles on both sides look even more spectacular.

It seems that everything in front of me looks the same as the surrounding, except for the red filter, and—the zeros and ones popping up in the air from time to time.

It was only then that Bai Wu discovered that if he looked carefully, he would find that this was not the spiritual world, but the data world.

But soon he refuted a little bit, because the scene was too real, he felt that the atmosphere was similar to the last time he went to Zaohu Village.

"No, this should be the spiritual world."

Data makes this original real world present a sense of fragmentation.

So much so that Bai Wu couldn't tell whether this world was a spiritual world or a data world.

Bai Wu originally thought that he would experience a distorted inner world. After all, the eyes mentioned distortion, but everything here is very detailed.

The wreckage is stacked on both sides, like the sides of a canyon.

Nothing seems to have changed, except for the sheer amount of debris.

Occasionally, people's cries could be heard in the distance, and when Bai Wu followed the cries and cries, he found that... he couldn't see anything at all.

But when Bai Wu turned around and looked elsewhere, he could see some phantoms again.

Those phantoms seemed to be a group of mechanical clansmen. With their backs facing the white mist, they walked towards the distance like walking corpses, and finally submerged in the garbage mountain, seeming to be connected with the wreckage on both sides.

At this moment, a convoy of dozens of motorcycles roared past. But on the outline of the motorcycle, countless zeros and ones stand out.

These suspected steel-toothed pirates were all dressed in black, as if they were going to a funeral.

The steel-toothed pirates quickly disappeared from the sight of the white mist.

Bai Wu felt that all this was strange, because the hint mentioned by the eyes was——

[My old buddy, how can I observe if there is nothing? Although we have all seen many things and seen sights that seem real. But nothing here is true.

The soul is placed in the flesh and blood, but if it is placed in the machine, when the program is running, the soul will be transformed into data in order to match the machine. But in the digital world, everything is in pursuit of the right.

Humans make mistakes, and if data is wrong, it cannot function. There is an anomaly in this world, if you find this anomaly, all problems will be solved—with the therapist Ayan. 】

It was a very strange passage, so that Bai Wu felt that the world became more blurred. Is it the world of consciousness or a world of data?

Is the picture I see in this world a world composed of 0 and 1, or does this world already exist, but gradually there is a series of abrupt data?

"Once the data is wrong, it will not work..."

Thinking about the sentence mentioned by the eyes, Bai Wu had a vague idea of ​​​​solving the problem in his heart.

Just like a piece of code, if it is wrong, the program will eventually report an error and fail to run.

But human beings are different. Human beings will have such contradictory behaviors as I am wrong and dare next time, and knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, they prefer to go to the tigers.

But if the soul and data are fused, there will be contradictions, and the more emotional a person is, the greater the contradiction will be.

Bai Wu faintly felt that perhaps the origin of the Raou virus was the mismatch between the soul and the mechanical body?

In this way, as a person of the mechanical race, he is destined not to be a twisted soul corrector. Perhaps this profession was specially set up by No. 0 for humans?

Bai Wu shook her head, now is not the time to think about this question.

"I have to find a way to find the source of the abnormal data that the eyes said."

...

...

The white mist began to slowly wander in this half-data, half-spiritual world.

The world seemed huge, and he walked along the path of the garbage mountain, and began to think about a strange thing.

There are many rules outside the tower, and under some strange rules, many ordinary things will become unbelievable.

Looking at the rubbish and wreckage on both sides, Bai Wu was suddenly puzzled.

"If the wreckage is the body of the machine race... then assuming that the machine race recognizes itself as a human being—doesn't it represent people from the outer city, living in an environment full of companion bodies?"

"Everyone in the inner city lives in a huge environment made of the bodies of similar creatures..."

White mist has no way to be afraid, so it can't feel creepy. But it was indeed a scalp-tingling discovery.

If the wreckage is imagined as flesh and blood, these wreckage are not only the material for creating the machine race, but also the material for creating the machine city.

So Bai Wu quickly thought of a terrifying scene——

What I saw was not a mechanical wreck, but a human body. The entire inner city was the body of a giant.

Many tiny human beings live inside the giant, and the giant's organs are floating in the sky, with countless blood vessels connecting the organs, and many humans want to transfer to the organs by climbing the blood vessels.

Then he thought of the question a child asked when he was a child——Bai Wu, you said that you cooked dog meat for the dog, would it eat it?

[Benefits for book friends] You can get cash or coins by reading books, and iPhone12 and Switch are waiting for you to draw! Follow the vx public account [Book Friends Base Camp] to get it!

The child looks cute when he says these words, but the questions he asks, when unfolded, are actually scary.

Or to put it another way, if the stone has a soul, will the stone build a house out of stone?

This problem is so similar to the Mechanical City at this moment.

This convinced Bai Wu of one thing—the souls of the machine race had their cognition modified.

They use machines as bodies or as building materials without any psychological burden. They have no fear of it.

This is actually very abnormal.

This is abnormal, as if human beings feel that the flesh and blood grow on their own body, and there is no difference between putting it on the dinner plate.

...

Thinking of all these things in her mind, Bai Wu came to the homeless town unknowingly.

Unlike the blood red of the garbage mountain, this small town looks golden for some reason.

Looking at the entrance of the town, a note popped up in Bai Wu's eyes.

[Please always remember that everything in the spiritual world has symbolic meaning. Also, you thought the world was big, but it's not, and you've come to the town to solve the puzzle. Please take a closer look at the purest buildings in the town. 】

Another piece of riddle-like information, Bai Wu didn't care, walked into the town, he found that there were a lot of homeless people in the homeless town, the number was a bit weird and exaggerated.

The main street of the town is almost full of people, even the alleys. It is hard not to let Bai Wu imagine, do these homeless people symbolize the "abnormally piled up" data?

Different from reality, the body of the homeless man has graffiti in four colors, and the content of the graffiti has no rules. But the colors are nothing but gold, red, purple, blue.

And on almost everyone, the blue graffiti is incomplete. Compared with the outlines of other colors, it is as abrupt as a piece of pizza that has been taken away.

It is worth mentioning that the proportion of golden graffiti is unusually large.

Seeing these homeless people coming and going, almost filling the streets of the whole town, Bai Wu seemed to guess something.

He began to observe the buildings, and soon spotted the familiar red hotel.

On the outskirts of the actual Machinery City, the Red Hotel was where he and Xie Xingzhi lived temporarily. He decided to go inside the hotel to see.

Walking into the red hotel, Bai Wu saw the electronic calendar pasted on the wall of the hotel, the periphery of the date, if you look carefully, you can find a long period of 1 and 0.

The date is very important data for machinery, changing the date without authorization may cause many serious problems.

The remarks that popped out of the eyes convinced Bai Wu that although there was no problem with the date - it seemed to indicate something like this.

[There is no problem with the date. The owner of this world, his thoughts and behavioral logic did not stop at a certain day. It was just because of a certain emotion that could not be resolved, which caused part of the data to be bloated.

However, although there is no problem with the date, it can help you observe the town carefully. This is an important prop. If I continue to talk about it, I will not call it a riddle maker, but a reference answer. 】

There is no clue to the date, and the questions with the examiner's eyes are getting more and more obscure, but Bai Wu is not in a hurry, the style of Prell's eyes matches the subconscious side of the sequence owner——

He was sure that he would soon find the answer to the puzzle because of some clues.

White mist came to the second floor of the red hotel.

On the second floor, Bai Wu found that the doors of every room were open. And when he walked out of a certain room, he found that there was an extra piece of red graffiti on his body, like a broken puzzle.

Looking at the red graffiti, Bai Wu smiled, and the answer became clearer. He happily left the red hotel and went to explore elsewhere.

Not long after, Bai Wu found a blue hotel on the other side of the homeless town.

He wasn't surprised, but he still recalled what he saw in reality.

"When Xie Xingzhi and I came, we didn't find the Blue Hotel. It seems that this can be said to be an obvious reminder."

In reality, there is indeed a red hotel in the homeless town, because the walls are painted red, and because the hotel itself is called red.

But in reality, there is no blue hotel. Bai Wu is still very confident in his ability to investigate the legion's standard equipment memory.

He sensed something strange here, walked into the blue hotel, looked around again, and found out that there were hotels of other colors.

Gold Hotel, Purple Hotel. The four hotels are distributed in four corners.

So for the next half an hour, Bai Wu observed in several hotels. Because these hotels with a single color look really suspicious.

After observing these hotels, Bai Wu really made a discovery.

Gold, purple, blue, red. Among the twenty-seven rooms in the four hotels, one room in one hotel was closed.

All rooms in all other hotels have doors that can be opened.

At this very moment, Bai Wu was standing outside the closed room on the second floor of the Blue Hotel.

The room number reads S-07.

Red houses start with A, gold houses start with H, and purple houses start with F.

After combining all the information, Bai Wu became more and more convinced of his conjecture:

"Four hotels and twenty-seven rooms... I know what they correspond to. But how did these data become bloated? If the population is bloated data, and the graffiti on the body represents emotions... then these populations How did it increase little by little?"

"What strange things must happen in this small town, why do golden graffiti account for so many?"

In fact, Bai Wu already had ideas for solving these problems.

"The remark mentioned that everything in the spiritual world has symbolic meaning. Another meaning of this sentence is that everything here has a corresponding function. The remark mentioned that the calendar is an extremely important prop."

Bai Wu quickly found the calendar, he took off the calendar hanging on the wall, and then began to adjust the time on the electronic calendar.

When Bai Wu set the time back three hours, the sky really changed significantly.

Everything is as he guessed, the calendar can change the time.

He continued to change the time, with an hour as the scale, and stopped for a few minutes to observe the surroundings every time he dialed a scale.

The behavior of the homeless people is no different from that in reality. They play cards, fight, and slack off. If the population is not too dense, everything seems normal.

When the white mist adjusted the time to night... the mutation came.

On the outskirts of the entire town, from the direction of the garbage mountain and other unknown directions, a group of white-painted mechanical homeless people poured in.

At this moment, Bai Wu finally knew all the answers.

...

...

Steel Fang pirate stronghold.

A group of steel tooth pirates looked at Gao Tianhou and Bai Wu, who had already entered the data link state, at a loss.

Raoul virus is a terrible virus. It is fine in the early stage of infection, but in the late stage, all emotions seem to disappear, leaving only a single emotion, and the whole person will go crazy, and may even turn into a monster.

Moreover, data linking with people infected with the Rau virus is extremely dangerous, and the infection rate exceeds 50%.

As for those men and women who are addicted to data fusion and information exchange, if one of them is infected with Rau virus, the other will be infected 100%.

So far, there have been only cases where people infected with the Raou virus have been wiped out, but no single case has been cured.

So whether it was Xie Xingzhi or the gang of motorcycle thugs from the steel tooth pirates, they were all very nervous.

Especially Xie Xingzhi, if Baiwu can cure the Rawu virus, then the value of Baiwu to the entire Machinery City, and the value to No. 0, may exceed that of Xie's family...

For a while, he had a delicate state of mind. He hoped that Bai Wu could cure the Rawu virus, but also hoped that Bai Wu was just fooling Gao Tianhou.

They were anxious for about an hour, and both Bai Wu and Gao Tianhou seemed to have entered a state of dormancy, so that everyone slowly became a little anxious.

Just when they couldn't help but want to forcibly break the link and pull Bai Wu away, both Bai Wu and Gao Tianhou opened their eyes.

Xie Xingzhi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. At this moment, Gao Tianhou felt the emotions in his heart, and he said tremblingly:

"I... am I alright?"
