Chapter 534 Illness
The cold rain was pattering, like early spring instead of the beginning of summer.
Xu Yang came to the forest of Mingge Mountain, the trees seemed to have their own heartbeat, he could vaguely hear the faint sound, because he was also a part of the oath.
The new inhabitants of the forest are those who are willing to follow nature, who have rejected industrial cities and modern environments, and now hide behind many phantoms and barriers, wary of all visitors. Xu Yang is an exception among these, which makes these newcomers in the forest feel respect, because there is always a white deer walking in front of him, leading Xu Yang forward. The white deer is the embodiment of the will of the forest, and they are already familiar with this law.
It brought Xu Yang to the most inaccessible place, where the forest almost blocks all sight, and all the secrets are hidden here, no one knows.
The white deer no longer walked, but sat in the middle of the forest glade, surrounded by the gurgling brook.
"Before, I heard the news from you with the help of the wind." Xu Yang looked at the white deer, "You want to see me?"
"Because of the cold wind, a chill lingers above our heads." A deep voice sounded around us, and its voice was deep, like an ancient echo before the human century.
"All weather forecasting agencies claim that the climate is entering the Little Ice Age." Xu Yang understands, in fact, he is also worried about this problem, "Some rivers that never freeze will freeze this winter, and food production will further decline , drier and less rainfall ... not normal at all."
"This is because the ice giant god blows his north wind from the polar horn," said the voice in the forest, "my abilities are limited to the islands, and even the things I can do are gradually becoming less and less. You will need yourselves to find the fire to keep you warm through these harsh times."
"Do we have a chance to reverse the course?" Xu Yang asked, "If we negotiate with the mysterious person who released Beifeng, or simply defeat him?"
"...This may be the only way." The voice in the forest slowly narrated, "But Yanduo Sun is its brother, even if you launch the most fearless expedition, Yanduo will become your opponent, Yanduo Will not sit by and let its brothers be killed."
"So we can only find another way out." Xu Yang understood the situation, "Find new sources of energy and heat."
"...This is the wisest choice," the voice in the forest elongated, like an infinite echo from the bottom of the tree roots, "you must accumulate strength in the future frost and winter, so that you can survive the winter after the winter." Midsummer holds high the harvest."
"Then we have to plan ahead, expand the crop network woven by Golden Branches, and double the food production." Xu Yang pondered, "At that time, we will not only be able to feed the local area, but also export it overseas. In addition, we must ensure the construction of offshore oil and gas drilling platforms , to provide people with fuel and heating supplies.”
"...a wise choice." The voice in the forest is mellow and changeable, sometimes it sounds like a male voice, sometimes it sounds like an ethereal girl, "...Airrid's power is not endless, and the ice age will eventually end. This cold winter It brings not only destruction and catastrophe, but also a test... When the frost and wind blow, trees are as easy to decay as humans, I hope we can advance and retreat in unison and survive the winter safely."
Immediately afterwards, the sound in the forest disappeared, and the white deer walked away.
Xu Yang returned from the forest and couldn't help but start to analyze.
It's already June, but today it's only 12°C. The cold wave without warning covers the northern and southern hemispheres like a whirlpool. Xu Yang silently clarified the situation. Nisto Corporation must manage the northern archipelago well, continue to build the economic system, integrate people's hearts, reorganize the army, develop technology, and lead everyone through this period of time smoothly, so that Falosa can continue to concentrate on cultivating strength.
The reduction of resources on a global scale will undoubtedly sharpen the contradictions.
Once the pressure builds up, there are no more than three strategies that can be adopted.
One is to develop virtual joy to reduce stress, fill life with entertainment, divert attention, and reduce the rate of stress accumulation.
The second is to discharge the pressure layer by layer, deliberately making a large number of people a price, including enslaving and restricting the meaning of life of some people, manufacturing durable consumables, so as to make life easier for others, and declaring war on other external forces is also a form , take other forces as targets of plunder and rob their resources.
The third is to divide the benefits among the people, so that people can share the benefits brought by development, so that they can be satisfied and carefree. People have the vitality to consume, the economy can function normally, and a prosperous market will in turn promote technological progress.
Model three is the most ideal, and it is also the model adopted by Nisto from the very beginning.
share weal and woe.
Nisto has always stood with the majority of people, and its business is by no means for personal service, and all efforts are to improve the living conditions of its members.
Everyone in the company prospers and loses. No one takes ill-gotten gains, and no one gets something for nothing, respect reason, and abide by the rules. Even if the current situation is difficult, everyone will help each other and tide over the difficulties together.
At the same time, Nisto Company has always refused external financial capital injection holdings, and sent one after another invitation letter and purchase agreement from the outside. As long as they sign the contract, they can get a huge amount of nearly 3 trillion yuan, which is equivalent to the Nisto Company The scale is enlarged by 2~3 times.
Even so, they still clearly hold the existing position, prohibiting banks and financial institutions from getting involved in the company's operations.
The Intercontinental Banking System and investment companies are proficient in manipulating the market. If Nisto Corporation foolishly boards the table and accepts this so-called gift, it will only be caught in the traps and tricks that follow.
If you join forces with it, the best outcome is to become another giant enterprise, one of the despicable companies.
That will not only lose the hearts of the people, but more frighteningly, it will lose the orthodoxy of calling for global progressive forces.
At every moment, in all walks of life, there are progressive forces, whether overt or covert, waiting for the outbreak of joint forces to burn down the rotten chains in one fell swoop. Nisto Company is going to use the northern archipelago as its source to support progressive causes around the world until there is an overwhelming response.
When a real world war breaks out, Nistor Corporation will find allies all over the world!
When the existential crisis comes, the company has no way to reconcile the problem, and the anger of the ownerless will burn endlessly, directed at the monopoly itself, then the real bloody battle will begin, and the fate of the entire civilization is likely to be determined in the next two or three generations. The dust has settled.
Nisto Corporation, Seven Seals and other giant companies, ancient mystics, interstellar giants... The cold wind is like an early warning, prompting them to fight hard. The contradictions between the four parties are irreconcilable, and one of them will definitely destroy the other three.
When Xu Yang turned back from the forest to the city, his mind was full of thoughts. He wanted to accomplish the most earth-shattering career in the most calm and prudent way.
It was also at this moment that he heard that something happened to Linyin.
Xu Yang hurriedly returned to the medical center of Nisto's headquarters. Linyin was lying on the medical bed with her eyes closed, and her brain was connected to a health monitor.
He glanced at it, and all the health readings were stable, which meant that Linyin was in good condition, but for safety reasons, the medical staff injected her with a pale injection to make her continue to sleep.
"I brought her here." Pan Ruiyi stood by the door, wearing a helmet, his expression was invisible, but his voice could be heard to be nervous, "We had a good time yesterday, but today something is wrong."
"Cyberpsychiatric." Xu Yang checked the consultation log of the medical team. They successively used sedatives and immunosuppressants for Linyin to suppress the growing tendency of mental separation in her brain. The current situation has improved. It was identified as an occasional outbreak of cyberpsychosis, which collided with a small probability event.
"We did it?" Pan Ruiyi was taken aback, and felt guilty when he thought of the little fruit fed to Linyin yesterday, "Then we... can't do that again."
"Her last record was in the virtual reality cabin, and the doctor determined that she could not accept any consciousness data conversion program." Xu Yang observed the medical report and mentioned that virtual reality technology affected Linyin's perception of reality and induced cyberpsychosis. , "I'm afraid it has little to do with our affairs, the main thing is that she...she shouldn't be loaded with any virtual reality augmentation technology. Is she here to receive virtual combat training?"
"She is often in the combat simulation cabin at the headquarters." Pan Ruiyi's tone became more urgent, "Is that so? I told her to use it for up to 2 hours at a time, so she shouldn't use it indiscriminately."
Xu Yang checked carefully.
"She used it for more than 4 hours every time, and the longest time she stayed for 8 hours." Xu Yang whispered, "She also used hacking techniques to tamper with the alarm mechanism of the technical cabin, so as not to be forcibly kicked offline."
"... No wonder her skills developed so fast." Pan Ruiyi felt desperate for her own carelessness, "I thought she was very talented! It turns out that she has been torturing herself! After staying in that crazy fighting situation for so long, No wonder... no wonder it turned out like this."
"She is indeed talented, but..." Xu Yang said slowly, "She still lacks experience, all kinds of things."
"I'm not optimistic about her!" Pan Ruiyi yelled loudly, in a hurry, "She...she is eager to become stronger as soon as possible, but how can I be so easy to deal with? I should let her go. I won't work so hard!"
People who have been injected with paleness treatment needles will only wake up under extreme external conditions. At this time, Linyin was indeed awakened by Pan Ruiyi.
She opened her eyes, looking weak.
"...I remember I hurt a synthetic man." Lin Yin lowered his voice, "How is it?"
"I asked someone to send it for repair." Pan Ruiyi leaned over and quickly explained, "Don't worry."
Linyin adjusted her breathing, then turned to look at Xu Yang.
"I'm sorry... Mr. Internet Supervisor..." Linyin apologized wearily.
"Your mental difference has risen to 6% now." Xu Yang took Linyin's hand to reassure her, "...you can no longer participate in any activities related to virtual reality, you must face this world wholeheartedly, The world we really live in."
"But I have to..." Rinto raised his voice.
"Nothing is necessary... No more virtual combat simulations," Xu Yang cautioned, "No more virtual games, no Sea of Hillis courses, and subjective time-slowing implants are prohibited, it's up to you Falling into the starting point of mental difference. Until you finish the course of treatment, the mental difference will slowly drop back to the original 2%. "
"...I'm like a useless person." Linyin laughed at herself, "I can't even stand a little class. Any 14-year-old child can play virtual games, but I will be induced by this kind of thing. Cyber psychosis."
"It's not your fault. Someone else did it. The company left a psychological shadow on everyone, including me!" Pan Ruiyi almost jumped onto the bed. She hugged Lin Yin and almost squeezed her flat. Fortunately, Pan Ruiyi Let go in time.
Linyin remained silent, burying her face in her hands.
"I still..." She looked up, "...I still want to help and do something useful. But I can't do anything right now?"
"There must be. There are still many things that can be solved without intubation." Xu Yang adjusted the thermostat to increase the temperature in the room, "You rest here for a while, and others will come soon."
Linyin looked out the window, feeling that it was far away.
She knew that the way to overcome her ultimate fear was to defeat Enomoto Bank herself, yet she was banned from training due to the early signs of cyberpsychosis.
After a while, Miying and the others all came, bringing Hosoda Yoshiyuki who had suffered from cyber-psychopathy for 10 years.
He frowned and looked at the lost Lin Yin.
"You must have a lot of experience in resisting cyber psychosis." Miying hurriedly said to Yoshiyuki Hosoda, "...you can help Linyin."
Rinne looked up at Yoshiyuki Hosoda.
"The best way? That is to pretend that you are not sick." Hosoda Yoshiyuki sneered, "You will become a madman in the eyes of others, but you will also embrace your true self. Cyber mental illness cannot be eradicated. When you start digging The roots of cyberpsychosis are planted when empty flesh is filled with metal. It's a long process, and you end up throwing off the 'temperance' and becoming a 'devil'."
"I can reverse all this." Lin Yin whispered.
"You can't." Hosoda Yoshiyuki said contemptuously, "How could you?"
Lin Yin didn't speak.
Later, the people who came to visit left one after another.
At midnight, Linyin quietly left the ward, she came to the core floor of Nisto headquarters, and passed through the checkpoint.
She pushed open the door, and the images of the stars shook in front of her.
The golden thread stretched under Linyin's feet, winding and leading to various roads among the stars.
As long as you embrace the power that restores everything, as long as you offer your loyalty to "Faroza-sama", that's enough.
Linyin looked at the suspended corner of the recovery star, where the drifting force slowly rotated, almost turning into a vortex.
Lord Farosha, Lord Farosha. Lin Yin silently recited the sacred name as she walked along the golden thread, she needed to keep her balance so as not to fall to the sides.
She walked on the path of the witch's holiness.
Standing just a short distance from the recovery star, Linyin still clearly remembered how far away it would be to be captured by the law of recovery.
She squatted down, nearly half-kneeling on the ground, only a hair's breadth away from being covered by the recovery light.
Lord Faroza!
Linyin almost jumped up, using the law of recovery to heal her physical and mental wounds.
Her body leaned forward, but immediately stiffened again, her expression painful.
think carefully……
What's the difference between submitting to the company or submitting to Lord Faroza?
Linyin gave up her thoughts of despair, looked around the sea of stars, and quickly returned along the way she came.
And this starry sky was obviously sullen at Linyin's lack of cooperation! More stars exploded in the distance, and even the doors began to close on their own.
Faroza will not tolerate disobedience.
Rinne drove the subjective slow-time implant, and jumped over it in an instant.
boom!
Escaped. Linyin looked back at the closed door, bursts of red light came out from it.
The door was locked behind her, as if Linyin was never welcome to join.
Linyin wiped the sweat off her forehead, and the things in front of her eyes began to split and overlap.
Another subjective slowdown implant, damn it!
She knew that she should really listen to Mr. Internet Supervisor's words, and a small piece of her fragile nerve cells might be destroyed now.
Linyin struggled to maintain her balance, walking staggeringly in the corridor, each step was very strenuous.
so hard...
If this continues, she will not be able to return to the ward normally. She will fall to the ground in disgrace and be discovered by other staff, and then everyone will know where Lin Yin went privately.
She was pressed against a wall, unable to see anything at all, and her mind was buzzing.
At this moment, she suddenly heard the sound of brisk footsteps.
A small hand held Linyin and shook it gently, allowing her to distinguish the road even when her vision was separated.
Lin Yin felt relieved.
She closed her eyes and let that little hand lead her back to the elevator. In the elevator, the young witch grabbed Linyin's hospital gown and climbed onto her shoulders so that she could press the floor numbers and take Linyin back to the hospital. In the ward of the center.
safe...
Linyin was exhausted and fell headfirst on the sickbed, ready to fall asleep.
"Thank you, Xu Cheng..." Linyin closed her eyes, waiting for sleepiness to come.
"Meow." Hearing this, little Farosa just meowed, then left and closed the door of the ward.
