Suddenly, he noticed that at the end of his extremely distant sight, a corner of the deep universe disappeared.
The disappeared corner looked like a piece of the ceiling was missing, revealing a void deeper than the universe behind it.
Jinyun was shocked, but before he could take a closer look, something unexpected happened again!
At this moment, the brilliant virtual starry sky above his head suddenly became like a short-circuited light bulb, flickering. The high-frequency flashing light made Jinyun squint his eyes unconsciously.
In addition, looking around, the game world that was exquisite a second ago suddenly began to break down into pieces, floating towards the sky, and turned into digital symbols on the way and gradually dissipated.
And those places that disappeared have turned into nothingness. If you look closely, you can faintly see the familiar white wall of numbers.
Jinyun was stunned when he saw the white wall of numbers.
Isn’t that the white wall I dreamed of?
It seems like every time I have a strange dream, I dream about that digital white wall.
Jinyun had guessed before that the thing was probably the white light that enveloped his eyes every time he put on the VR helmet to enter the game.
Although I couldn't see it clearly due to the high brightness, my brain automatically recorded what I saw with my eyes, so I dreamed about it.
As the scene continued to fade away and turned into digital symbols, Fu Xuan, who seemed to be frozen in time, also began to change.
Her body seemed to be gradually covered with white paint, and something like snowflakes produced when the TV signal is bad kept flashing on her body.
At the same time, a large number of digital symbols and colorful color plates are also jumping on Fu Xuan's model. The polygonal mesh that can only be seen during modeling gradually emerges, as if time is going back, and Fu Xuan, the complete game character, is disassembled into a rough 3D model bit by bit.
"What on earth is going on? What on earth is happening here?"
Kiana hugged Jinyun's arms helplessly. Jinyun didn't know how to explain what was happening before his eyes. The only possibility he could think of was that the game had encountered a bug.
"02, what's going on?"
Jinyun frowned, called up AI assistant 02, which only he could see, and asked the other party anxiously:
"The system crashed?"
[Please wait, the VR immersion module seems to have an unknown BUG. The cause of the error is being recorded and fed back to the company network]
"Did you really encounter a bug?"
Jinyun was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly, looking thoughtful.
This is the first time he has encountered a BUG in this game.
It is normal for unreleased games to encounter bugs, not to mention that this game is still in the testing phase. Aren’t internal testing activities created to test gameplay and bugs that developers have not encountered?
But to be honest, the bugs encountered in this first-person immersive mode are quite scary. The game world, which was just colorful a moment ago, suddenly becomes collapsed and torn into pieces, as if the end of the world has come.
"02. When you encounter a bug, all you can do is record the cause of the error? Can't you fix it?"
[Yes, I don’t have the permission to view and modify the underlying code. What I can do is to report the error to the company network, and then the company’s developers will remotely connect to the server to fix it.]
“Tsk, it’s quite troublesome, but I understand. I hope we won’t encounter such problems when we officially launch the app.
Also, how serious is this bug? Does it affect just the current game world, or the entire game?
【According to the preliminary diagnosis results, this BUG only affects the current game world. 】
"No wonder Kiana wasn't affected. After all, she doesn't belong to this world, and her character code and this game code should be independent of each other.
So, I can continue playing by taking Kiana to other worlds, right?"
[This is the theory, but I don’t recommend you to do this. This BUG may cause a chain reaction and may still affect the main game later.]
"That's fine. I'll quit until the bug is fixed."
Jinyun sighed, activated the pause function, and then brought the frozen Kiana to the [Eden] world where the character was created.
Let this girl stay here for a while. After the bugs are fixed, we will go back to the Star Iron World to play the story.
Speaking of which, just when Fu Xuan was about to tell you what he saw using the Qiongguan Formation, a bug appeared.
Is this just a coincidence, or is there another reason?
Chapter 122 Kiana and AR Reality! (4K)
Jinyun logged out of his account, took off his VR helmet, picked up his phone and looked at the time on the screen.
It was already 2:30 in the morning. Although several days had passed in the game, in reality only about six hours had passed since Jinyun finished his meal and logged into the game.
Perhaps because his liver was too tired, Jinyun fell asleep quickly.
He did not have those strange dreams tonight, nor did he have any inexplicable hallucinations. He slept smoothly until noon the next day.
The customer service of Star Network received the BUG feedback from Jinyun and notified the maintenance plan and progress via email.
They will apply a repair patch to the internal test game. According to the detailed maintenance schedule, it will take at least half a month to complete the maintenance.
When Jinyun thought about not having any games to play for the next half month, he felt as if ants were crawling on his body.
He had no choice but to open his laptop, which he hadn't used for a long time, and play traditional 3A masterpieces.
Once you have seen the sea, you will never be impressed by other waters. After playing large-scale games like "Sustaining Humanity" that completely immerse you into another world, Jinyun almost lost interest in these 3A games on the computer.
The only fun is looking for various patch MODs on the Internet and challenging the player scoreboard.
Just like that, a week passed.
That morning, Jinyun got up as usual, made breakfast, and planned to go to Yunxi's clinic to help.
As soon as he walked out of the house, the mobile phone in his pocket rang with a text message notification. He took out his phone and saw that the notification was sent by the "Supporting Humanity" game app which had been silent for a while.
Jinyun was delighted, thinking that the game maintenance had been completed, and hurriedly opened the APP to check the complete notification.
Unfortunately, this notification was not to inform about the progress of the game repair, but to remind Jinyun that new functions were available.
Jinyun read the notification from beginning to end. In short, the beta version has updated the AR mode, and the game data in the VR device can be synchronized with the AR device in the cloud, so it is now possible to play using AR.
This also means that the AR glasses that Star Network previously gave Jinyun can finally be used for more than just watching movies and TV, and adding filters to real scenery.
What does the AR version of “The Support of Humanity” look like? Will it be like the one in the commercials, where the two-dimensional characters enter the real world?
Although it is virtual and cannot compare with the immersive world under VR, it seems quite interesting. It is also a good substitute to play before the VR version is repaired.
Thinking of this, Jinyun immediately returned home, found the VR glasses from the bedroom cabinet, and installed the AR version of Supporting Humanity according to the tutorial in the game notification attachment, and synchronized the cloud data transmission.
After the data was fully synchronized, he opened the game. As the familiar loading page flashed, the familiar Garden of Eden appeared in his eyes.
The AR version of Eden is quite different from the VR version. The scenery, layout and furnishings are all based on the real world.
For example, Jinyun is now in his own bedroom. His bed has become a flower bed, and all the other furniture has become woven with vines and branches. The floor under his feet is covered with green grass, and the ceiling has become a Baroque-style roof, giving a feeling of being in a European garden.
Jinyun opened the character interface, selected Kiana, and activated her.
As the light curtains intertwined and changed, Kiana's small body soon emerged from the light curtains.
She closed her eyes and stood quietly in front of Jinyun, as if she was in a deep sleep.
Jinyun tried to touch the other person's little head. Through the VR glasses, although his palm touched the other person, he did not feel the touch of a real object.
Does this thing also need to be used with a motion feedback suit?
Thinking of this, Jinyun took off his VR glasses, put on a body feedback suit, and tried again after the data was connected.
Sure enough, when I touched Kiana's hair this time, I felt the touch of a real object on my hand.
"Well, although it's not as good as the VR version, the sense of immersion is actually quite good. As long as you pay attention to the bumps and bumps of the outside world, it should be okay to play."
Everything was ready, Jinyun gently shook Kiana's head to wake her up from her sleep.
Kiana opened her eyes sleepily, glanced at Jinyun, and then looked around blankly.
After a while, she touched her head and asked Jinyun in confusion:
"Teacher, where is this place? I remember we just seemed to... um, what happened just now? I can't quite remember..."
"It's complicated. There was a strange collapse in that place, and when I was helping you escape, you accidentally hit your head, so your memory of what happened just now may be a little fuzzy."
Facing Kiana's question, Jinyun used an excuse he had prepared long ago. The little girl looked suspicious, with a pair of confused eyes that seemed to be saying:
Do I look so gullible? You said before that I lost my memory because I hit my head, and now you are saying it again?
"Ahem, anyway, we are out of danger for now. This place looks like a city in Shenzhou. Let's stay here for a while and go back to take a look when we have a chance."
"Oh... I hope Bai Lu and Fu Xuan are okay. Alas, it's a pity that the food in that place is quite delicious, and I haven't eaten enough."
Kiana covered her stomach with one hand, pouted her lips, and showed a look of regret.
This carefree girl thinks about nothing else except eating, sleeping and playing all day long. The wars she experienced on the fairy boat Luofu were just like playing house to her.
Although this is also due to Jinyun's protection, Kiana's carefree personality is indeed easy to deal with, which saves Jinyun a lot of brain cells.
"Don't worry. Have you forgotten what I told you? This is Shenzhou. Are you worried that there won't be anything delicious to eat?"
"Yes, hey, silly teacher, I remember that many of the food advertisements I saw before were from Shenzhou, can you take me to have a look~"
"You can't control the gluttony in your stomach, right?"
"Hey hehe~"
"Okay, okay, I'll take you out for a walk, don't cause any trouble."
"I'm not a troublemaker~"
"Better not."
Jinyun reached out and pinched Kiana's soft little face, but he didn't intend to refuse. He also wanted to see what the AR version of the game could do.
AR glasses can adjust the city style according to the player's wishes, from the cyberpunk style with a full sense of technology and optical pollution to the ancient and mysterious Mayan civilization style.
The most commonly used style in Jinyun is a cartoon style that is a bit cute. The city is colorful, and the residential buildings lined up around it have become brightly colored building blocks. The public facilities on both sides of the street are painted with various graffiti, and even the pedestrians have become various anthropomorphic animals.
For example, the cute turtle, the majestic half-man, half-lion, and the hot catwoman.
After watching it for a long time, Jinyun felt that this style should not be called cartoon style, but furry style.
Fury was ecstatic.
The world that Kiana sees is interconnected with the world generated by AR glasses. In other words, what she sees is the world set by Jinyun.
The people coming and going on the streets were all orcs, which made Kiana begin to doubt her memory:
"I remember from the information I read that people living in Shenzhou were all normal people. Why are there so many orcs on the streets?"
Jinyun made up a story: "Ahem, this should be their festival celebration, dressing themselves up as animals."
"Hmm, is it similar to Halloween? I didn't expect the Shenzhou people have such a festival, it's really interesting."
"really."
Jinyun talked nonsense while calling up the settings, and without Kiana noticing, he switched the NPC images to normal mode in batches.
Soon, the orcs on the street turned back into ordinary humans. In order not to arouse Kiana's suspicion, Jinyun only retained a small number of orcs, which made it look much more normal.
Originally Jinyun wanted to take Kiana directly to the food street, but when they passed by a barbecue restaurant, the girl couldn't walk because of the smell of meat wafting from it.
"Teacher, I want to eat this!"
Jinyun glanced at the store. This barbecue restaurant was almost full even before mealtime, so the food must be good.
Under the filter of AR glasses, even those ordinary steaks looked tempting. Even Jinyun couldn't help wanting to try them, not to mention the greedy girl Kiana.
By the way, when going out on the road with Kiana, the passers-by in the AR glasses reacted to Kiana, but after taking off the glasses, the passers-by remained the same. So what will happen to eating?
"Come on, let's go. I'll treat you to a meal."
With curiosity, Jinyun waved his hand, took Kiana into the barbecue restaurant, and chose a seat to sit down.
The clerk came over to greet him warmly and asked Jinyun how many people there were. Jinyun thought for a moment and held up two fingers.
The other party did not show any strange expression. She took Jinyun to a seat inside and arranged bowls and plates for two people.
In the AR world, Kiana excitedly sat down opposite Jinyun, put the dishes and chopsticks in place, then ran to get a bunch of barbecue and placed it all over the table.
But when Jinyun took off his glasses, there was no extra food on the table in front of him.
It seems that the scenes in AR mode will automatically calculate the results based on the behavior of the game characters, thereby changing the game environment.
There was no food on the table in reality, and naturally there was no food on the table in the game. However, after Kiana took the food in the game, there was food on the table.
Although it would be distracting if you take off your glasses, the details are very good and the algorithm is very smart and meticulous.
By the way, what was I thinking? How could the dishes picked by the game character appear on the real table?
Jinyun smiled self-deprecatingly, stood up and went to the food counter to get some of his favorite dishes.
