After Online Dating with Unlimited Streaming BOSS

WBD's R&D department occupies one-third of the company's fields, with the R&D group on the fifteenth floor as the core.

Before the car accident, Rong Yi seldom came here. First, her work and this department were less involved. Second, she came here to be Fan Xingze's home base, and she avoided suspicion if she could.

Now, the situation is completely reversed.

In order to show her favor to Fan Xingze, she came to the 15th floor to report almost every day during this period, and she was more familiar with the R&D department than the investment strategy department. However, when Noel Otis took her around, going through many gates, to the secret laboratory located in the deepest part of the 15th floor, without even a window, she was still surprised.

It turned out that there were also places she had not explored before.

"Welcome to ARSCL." The old man turned on the main switch of the laboratory, and the lights above his head turned on one by one, illuminating this huge secret laboratory.

"The full name here is ARsecretcreativeLab, which researches the military's immersive simulation combat system commissioned by your company's government." Fan Xingze came from behind her. When it comes to work, he talks more than usual, and his attitude is also a lot more eager. .

He really loves this job, Rong Yi thought.

She walks in the huge laboratory, the equipment here is not much "computer" in her cognitive sense, but more of a large tin can like a sleeping cabin, with criss-crossing cables covering the ground and reaching the ceiling The strange equipment flashed with data and display lights, not a translucent simulated screen flashed by holographic projection, some were characters, some were fighter planes, and some were three-dimensional sand tables.

This scene does not exist in reality, but more like a future picture in the cyberpunk copy of Rong Yi's last experience. She carefully bypassed the wires on the ground and gently placed her hands into the three-dimensional image. The image is disturbed and flickering.

Suddenly she thought of something, quietly distanced herself from Noel in front of her, and got closer to Fan Xingze.

Seemingly sensing her intention, Fan Xingze stepped up his pace instead, unwilling to be alone with her.

Rong Yi was in a hurry, grabbed him, and whispered, "Hid the fart! Can I still eat you? Talk to you about the business!"

Fan Xingze slowed down.

"I gave you some weird code snippets before, do you still have them?" she asked. If Fan Xingze still remembers the code snippets from the lucky carnival, he should at least be alert to his teacher.

Fan Xingze frowned: "Code? When? You don't understand this, where did the code snippet come from? If it's a simple bug deal, call the maintenance team below—"

It was almost the same rhetoric that Rong Yi gave him the code snippet for the first time, she lamented, sure that these things disappeared without a trace along with his feelings with her.

She cheered up and asked, "Aren't these your secret projects? Would you really like to bring me here?"

Fan Xingze shook his head in confusion: "According to the regulations, non-project team members are not allowed to enter this laboratory. I don't know the intention of the teacher to bring you here. Do you need more research funds? But now we have enough funds. …”

"...Forget it, you know a DER." Rong Yi let out a irritable breath. It's a good thing that Fan Xingze doesn't remember anything. He is a rare computer genius. If Noel Otis is really researching the Lucky Carnival, the progress is slow by only one person, and the most suitable assistant is Fan Xingze, who has amnesia.

At least until his own project takes shape, Fan Xingze should be safe.

It's just that if he will wake up in the future and know that he has contributed to the face of a devil who collects human lives, will he hate himself for it.

Based on what Rong Yi knew about him, he definitely would.

So it's best to do it before everything happens.

Noel didn't know where to take her, and she followed, observing her surroundings. Suddenly, in the three-dimensional images that kept popping up, Rong Yi Yuguang captured a familiar face - a standard model-like face, a stiff and shiny face, and unblinking eyes:

That's a Chinese-American man doll in the ogre copy!

Hearing Rong Yi stop, Noel turned around and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

Heh, Rong Yi sneered in his heart. This old man can do it. Using their company's resources to study his own things, this act of plucking the wool of the dove occupying the magpie's nest and stealing the sky is really admirable.

She pointed to the holographic projection of the beautiful man doll: "Really handsome, master, did you think that military equipment also needs such a good-looking avatar?"

The old man laughed: "After the soldiers enter the virtual acting interface, they need to simulate their real appearance in it, so that teammates have a more realistic sense of substitution, so pinching the face is also an important research area for us. This image is an initial standard. , is an average male face that combines the typical faces of the East and the West. It is really handsome, which also shows that the human aesthetic is 'average'."

Rong Yi nodded: "It's really interesting. But why doesn't he wear a military uniform, but a tuxedo?"

The old man's eyes were bright: "Mr. Rong is really observant and meticulous. In order to test whether our intelligent AI can run smoothly, we built some small fragmented scenes, put virtual dolls in and interacted with real people, to see if they could make a suitable Logical judgment has become a virtual enemy that can simulate the actions of the enemy. His clothes are also designed to match these small scenes. After all, not all battles take place on the battlefield. Some infiltration and undercover operations require more simulation training of this system. , analyze all possible situations.”

"It's amazing." Rong Yi applauded, "It's as interesting as a future game."

Noel's smile paused slightly, then continued to walk: "Yes. The original essence of human games is battle simulation, so the war simulation system is like a game, which is very appropriate."

"Is there something wrong for the master to call Fan Xingze here? Don't worry about me, you are busy with yours. Don't worry, I am a layman, I can't understand what you are saying about the secret, hahahaha." She jokingly pulled Fan Xingze forward. : "Go, you guys are busy, I haven't seen how the R&D department works in detail!"

At this time, Fan Xingze also remembered that the teacher said that he had something to do with him, so why did he become a tour group for Rong Yi? He hurriedly asked Noel if a simulation rungroup was down.

"There is a simulation group, and they seem to have a sense of self-rebellion." Noel took the two to a huge supercomputer that was as high as the ceiling. Lines of code scrolled on the small screen, and some garbled codes flashed from time to time. .

Fan Xingze's eyes lit up: "Self-resistance consciousness?! Isn't this the manifestation of the birth of AI life? God teacher! If this is true, it is an incredible discovery!"

Unexpectedly, Noel said angrily: "You are still very happy? I have said many times that the essence of AI is data and electrical signals. The so-called 'life' is just an analogy between some high-standard AI's self-computing functions and the logic of life. "Everything in a computer is for humans, and if there is uncontrolled autonomous behavior of AI, it can only be data out of control or overflow."

"You, romanticism is too serious. No matter how cutting-edge computer science is, it exists to serve humanity. Don't think of yourself as a savior."

Fan Xingze bowed his head and said yes.

They fiddled in front of this huge machine for a long time, the machine made a long beep, it seemed to be restarted, all the lights went out, and they turned on row by row from low to high, and the data scrolled again on the small screen. , the three-dimensional projection device connected to the machine projected a tower-shaped building, a team of personnel guarded the tower, and a pair of personnel attacked the tower, fiercely confronting each other.

Some are like Jikasburg Hospital, Rong Yi thought.

When the attacking team came to the middle of the tower, the force consumption of both sides was basically the same. The old man watched with satisfaction the evenly matched battle between the two sides, and turned back to ask Rong Yi, "It's interesting, isn't it?"

"Indeed." Rong Yi said, "No matter which camp you are attacking or defending, it must be fun. After all, the fun of the game comes from balance."

"Mr. Rong seems to have a lot of experience with games." Noel was not angry at all, she compared her research results to games, and her curious eyes were full of childlike light: "If it were you, you would want to play such games. Is it? Immersive, fighting against NPCs, it feels very real, and it would be terrifying to say no!"

Rong Yi didn't know whether he was really asking for his opinion or testing himself. Did Noel Otis in this time period have those anti-human thoughts?

"It depends on the price paid." Rong Yi said, "If you just play this immersive game, if you lose, you will lose, and there may be some pain in the body, but it will not affect the normal real life - then I I’m still a little interested. As for horror, horror is actually a feeling that many people are pursuing, and it can stimulate the secretion of adrenaline. Otherwise, how could horror movies become a popular movie genre?”

Having said this, she paused: "However, the reason why people love horror is because those horrors are fake, just like an old saying in our country - Lord Ye loves the dragon. Fake horror is like this virtual system that you study, It makes people feel more confident by getting people to preview and rehearse the terrifying dilemmas they might encounter. But if the dragons are real—that’s the trouble, nobody but a real dragon slayer will like it.”

She smiled slightly: "Why, Master still plans to develop this system into a game?"

Noel was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Mr. Rong said that I'm not doing business here! Zoe will prove to me that I've wanted to develop an immersive virtual game like this military simulation system for a long time. But that's just me Personal interest, you have the support of the government, that is the real live ammunition!"

Fan Xingze nodded: "I used to help the teacher with that game project. But the teacher's idea was too profound. At that time, I could only appreciate some human brain connection and virtual reality fur."

"What about now?" Rong Yi asked, "How much do you understand now?"

Fan Xingze raised his head and thought about it: "It's strange, recently, it seems that some bottleneck has been suddenly broken, and some ideas about human brain connection are more mature. However, I also have a stronger interest in things such as AI life. "He scratched his head embarrassedly: "As the teacher said, maybe it's a little off?"

Rong Yi shook his head and looked at him seriously: "Why not be a little more confident? I believe you are heading in the right direction."

Fan Xingze opened his mouth, probably because he wanted to say something that you didn't understand, but he was afraid that it would be too direct and hurtful, so he finally choked back the words.

Noel looked at him, looked at her again, and suddenly showed a naughty smile like an old urchin: "Mr. Rong, I always feel that you don't know enough about our project, so you are a little bit against me. I invite you to come this time. You can experience firsthand what the future human-brain-connected virtual reality technology can achieve."

coming!

Rong Yi looked at the old man's kind smile, did he really invite her to experience it? Or do you want to get rid of her?

She looked back at Fan Xingze, and he patted the tin can that he had opened: "I've tried it many times, it's very fun, and there are no side effects. The teacher has also tested it himself. This is a very short immersive scene. , there's no plot, it's like visiting a park, it's very safe."

"If you don't worry, I can accompany you in, just to let you experience our online interaction function." Fan Xingze happily opened another tin can on the side, slid into it by himself, and skillfully attached the electrode pads to himself. The back of his neck and the lid were closed, and Noel, who was so fast, couldn't stop him.

The old man laughed a little: "Alright, let's go play together. This kid does something really good—" He leaned into Rong Yi's ear: "Maybe he wants to show off in front of his sweetheart?"

Rong Yi was stunned. Didn't Fan Xingze forget all his feelings for her? How would he know? Besides the current situation, isn't she chasing him? The whole company knows it, and it's impossible for Fan Xingze's teacher not to know?

Noel showed a sly smile: "Oh, Zoe and I have a good relationship. This kid told me everything before. Although I don't know what kind of conflict between you two, I believe that he is normal."

He gestured to the open cabin and smiled at Rong Yi.

When he said that, Rong Yi was simply too curious. Noel said that this was done by Fan Xingze himself. He had been rejecting his closeness all this time. This was the only time he took the initiative to invite the two of them to be alone—the consciousness was connected, and it was barely considered alone.

Even if she knew that this might be a trap, no matter how primitive the online state was, it was essentially similar to entering the game. She might be trapped, or she might enter the game again—but she still chose to go in.

Because entering, it means one step closer to the current Fan Xingze. Think of it as a side quest that suddenly started her "Star Chasing Project"!

Noel helped her glue the electrodes and put the lid on. Before the last ray of light disappeared, Rong Yi put his hands behind his neck and grabbed the wires on the electrodes.

If something goes wrong, I hope this primitive human-brain connection device can't completely paralyze her consciousness. She will use all her sanity to physically offline herself.

There was a tingling pain in the back of her neck, and the numbness went down her spine. Rong Yi gradually couldn't feel her limbs, her eyelids were dizzy, and she lost consciousness in almost a second.
