The plot of the movie is also quite exciting. It just tells the love story between the male protagonist and the female android, from the master-servant relationship in peacetime to the mutual dependence during war. In the end, the male protagonist’s self-sacrifice protects the android female protagonist.

.

The surrounding scenes were constantly switching. How can I put it this way, the sense of immersion was indeed terrifying. Xiao Chu burst into tears at the end. Others were also more or less moved.

It's just that... the line that appeared after the movie was a little weird: Under the leadership of Mayor S, the war in the movie will never happen in reality!

"This cross-species love is so touching!" Xiao Chu said while crying.

"Okay, Xiao Chu is just a movie." Chen Xin comforted Xiao Chu as usual.

By the way, the reason for the war in the movie is the conflict between androids and humans...the omnic crisis that is often seen in science fiction movies.

Although this city is set 300 years later, it is a virtual world created by the modern Taoyuan system and highly intelligent AI. Chen Xingying glanced at Betty and thought of the GM "Taoyuan" again.

"However, looking at the final cast list, the heroine is really a bionic person. You can't tell if you don't say it. With such a beautiful bionic person, who would care whether she is a human or not." Wang Xuanjun said suddenly.

"There is actually a very interesting theory here called uncanny valley psychology."

For some reason, Wang Xuanjun's words seemed to trigger a certain switch in Chen Xingying, making her anxious to share his weird knowledge.

"Uncanny Valley? It sounds scary." Chen Xin seemed very interested.

"Well, it means that human beings will like things that are similar to themselves. For example, small animals that can talk in cartoons and small animals in real life that make gestures that are close to people will be universally loved by people. But some psychologists have analyzed

However... after these things become more and more similar to a certain extent, human beings' reactions and attitudes towards them will suddenly become extremely disgusting and fearful. It will not return to normal preferences until they are more similar to the point where they are almost indistinguishable from humans.

Such as The Walking Dead and Horror Dolls."

"What you said seems to be true. Is this why people are so afraid of ghosts?" Xiaopeng was once again smart.

"Yes, it can be said that species that look like humans but are not humans are what humans are most afraid of."

I don’t know why, but when I said this, the white monsters in the desert flashed through Chen Xingying’s mind. And it seemed that other people had also thought of this, with bad expressions on their faces.

"Your theory is actually well-known in our era and city." Betty suddenly said this.

"After all, the previous crisis with bionics was caused by the fact that bionics are similar to humans but also have obvious differences, which led to people's fear of them."

What Betty mentioned should be related to the human rights movement about androids decades ago that I mentioned before.

"So to say that the current balanced relationship can be achieved, I think it is not the success of the human rights movement, but that the current bionic people can hardly see the difference from humans."

Except for that sharp translation accent... Chen Xingying murmured in her heart.

When we walked out of the theater, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

"As a result, apart from fighting the NPCs from the Salvation Society, we didn't encounter any other teams today." Looking into the distance, Xiaoyu said to Chen Xingying.

"Yes, I originally thought there would be a three-way melee. The reason why today was uneventful is because I think it's not that there are not many other teams left to fight, or that the officials can separate the participating teams." Chen Xingying

This is the analysis.

"All in all, looking at tomorrow, I believe that tomorrow will be the day of the real decisive battle."

The two reached a consensus... It had actually been raining outside all day long, but unknowingly, as Betty said, people here have long been accustomed to such weather.

…

Called a taxi again, and after everyone returned to the teahouse in Chinatown, they discussed and decided to disband. On the one hand, they really could only wait for tomorrow's event, and on the other hand, since they had established their goals, they should log off early to avoid encountering problems.

If the enemy team encounters Neil or Wall's team, it will definitely be a fight to the death.

Therefore, Xiaopeng's team decided to set the transfer point in the teahouse, and the three of them would not leave Shangcheng District. Chen Xingying and the others followed Betty back to her car and left Shangcheng District within the stipulated 12 hours.

"Then tomorrow at regular time, we will go to Roger's house first, and then we will take you to Crown Garden in the afternoon after getting your things." Back downstairs of the hotel, Betty said to the three of them.

It was not the hotel of the previous night. It is estimated that the poor night's sleep had caused a psychological shadow on Betty, so this time I changed to another high-end hotel in the midtown area.

"Okay, see you tomorrow, come on everyone! Get ready for the decisive battle." Chen Xingying said to Chen Xin and Xiao Chu.

"Then I'll see you tomorrow, everyone." Chen Xin logged out of the system, followed closely by Xiao Chu.

Chen Xingying was also ready to log out, but after thinking about it, she raised her head and said to Betty who had not yet left,

"Thank you for taking care of me these days. I have caused you a lot of trouble."

After hearing this, Betty said nothing at first, then suddenly smiled,

"It's okay. It's been a long time since I took risks with young people like you. I would also like to thank you for letting me return to my youth in the true sense." Betty said.

"Well, then tomorrow...the last day, I'll ask you to take care of me." Chen Xingying also responded to her smile.

"Yes! Little brother of the sponsor!" Betty pretended to salute and said with a smile.

…

Back in the real world, I logged off early this time, so I still have a while before going to bed.

Chen Xingying sat in front of the computer, opened the search engine, and started to do what she had wanted to do before in Sky City... Search for information about the Taoyuan World Competition. See if other teams are on the real-world online website

What traces are left behind?

Since this competition lasted for four days, it generated a lot of topics in the internal forum of Taoyuan system testers. Many testers who had nothing to do with the game world participated in the discussion.

Many people are anxiously asking about the current progress of the competition... Some people who have been eliminated have left messages there to complain.

"I spent so much money to buy equipment, but as soon as I came up, I met the ace player in the national region and was directly eliminated. It was really unlucky!"

Someone among them left a message like this. It seemed that it was left by a member of the team that was eliminated by him in Xiacheng District.

"We finally made it to the upper city area, but we were eliminated before we even saw the enemy."

Reply from downstairs:

"What, how do you play the game? It was obviously North America's ace professional player Neil Anderson who eliminated us, didn't you see anything?"

Next, there is a long section where one team only saw a quarrel... It seems that Neil has eliminated at least one team, and he is also in the upper city area... Fortunately, he did not meet him, otherwise he would be chased by him again... Chen Xingying

Thought.

After scrolling to the end, no team that has not been eliminated has left any relevant messages. It seems that everyone is protecting their respective information very carefully.

Except scrolling to the bottom, the latest message:

"Have you all received your invitations to the carnival for the teams that are still participating? We are looking forward to the finals tomorrow."

I don’t know if it was a contestant who left the message, but at least someone thought of it together with Chen Xingying and others.

A fantasy future city in the sky, never seeing sunlight, various settings full of contradictions, and a social structure with distinct classes... Tomorrow is the last day no matter what. In the worst case scenario, you may even fight Neil and Wall's teams at the same time.

.

Although her abilities have been improved through training, she is still not confident enough to deal with this situation... she can only take one step at a time. Chen Xingying entered her dream while thinking about this.

…

It’s time to reach the fourth day of this competition.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Chen Xingying and her group, led by Betty, returned to Roger's apartment building.

"Oh, you came just in time, I've already finished the stuff."

Unexpectedly, Roger actually opened the door this time. After arriving at his workshop, everyone looked around and found no extra bionic man.

"So Roger, where is the thing you built?" Betty asked.

"It's right here!" Roger said, pointing to his computer screen.

"Huh?" Everyone looked at the computer screen and saw a cute monkey cartoon image appearing on the computer screen.

The cartoon monkey wears a yellow vest and looks at the people appearing in front of the computer screen with big watery eyes.

"Hey, are these people Roger the VIPs?" The cartoon monkey actually spoke directly.

"Yes, they are your new masters." Roger also spoke to the people on the computer screen.

"Hi, hello, my name is Teddy, what should I call you? My masters?" the cartoon monkey said, waving to Chen Xingying and the others.

"What, what's going on? Didn't you agree to create a bionic man again?" Betty asked in surprise, and the other three people also looked at Roger in confusion.

"This is a re-creation. I created this virtual bionic man in the chip cyberworld through a complete set of programming. The cartoon image is very cute!" Roger said proudly.

"But what's the use of this? We are going to take him over to open the Tower of Babel and see Mayor S." Betty yelled at Roger angrily.

"Of course it is for this purpose. Needless to say, it is more convenient." Roger said while comforting Betty.

"Grandpa, so what is going on? How can we take him to the venue?" Chen Xingying asked Roger seriously.
Chapter completed!
