"Uh … What the hell is going on?" Indeed, the series of situations made the Jade Emperor feel a little confused. What the hell is going on? The previous promotional video was already confusing. Then, Dr. Hoffman suddenly appeared and said that the words in the video were all fake. If the words in the video were fake, he had to explain what was real. In the end, he didn't say anything, and the video was cut off inexplicably. How could anyone understand?
Li Huailin thought about it for a while. First of all, they were definitely still in this server. They were still in a virtual state. Otherwise, they wouldn't be wearing this equipment. Of course, this equipment was just a virtual image of them, and had no practical use. This place should be the virtual world headquarters of the so-called Paradise Company.
Although Hoffman told them not to believe the promotional video of the Paradise Company, which claimed to be an advanced hibernation system, they should still be able to believe the first part. Simply put, it was the actual role of the company. What Hoffman told them not to believe should be the purpose of the company.
Yes, Hoffman's warning was obviously a warning about the purpose of the company. Simply put, the company was using hibernation as an excuse, but what they were doing behind the scenes was definitely not that simple. Of course, Li Huailin had experienced such things many times, and it sounded like Hoffman's words were more credible.
However, what was the specific purpose of the company? Li Huailin really didn't know. If there were two layers of purpose, Li Huailin didn't even know the surface purpose of the other party. How could he expect to know the other party's true colors?
Realistically, according to the current situation, there was a company called Paradise that created the server called Paradise. The other party said that it made people happy in hibernation. This company must be a company from the future. After all, it was obviously impossible to achieve that with the current technology. For some reason, this server appeared in the timeline before their current era. This might also be related to the purpose of this company. Perhaps they were secretly experimenting with time travel or something like that.
The game world that Li Huailin and the others were in was obviously a world that was originally designed by the theme park. However, according to Li Huailin's previous reasoning, this game world did not exist at the beginning, but was born later. Its source should be the previous old game. Didn't Li Huailin speculate that this game evolved from the old game? Previously, Li Huailin thought that this evolution might be due to the server's own evolution, but now it seemed that this might not be the case.
Yes, Li Huailin felt that this evolution was man-made. It was very likely that when the server arrived in the previous space and time, the people (or rather, the minds) in the server were still alive. They might still be able to continue working here. At this time, the people of that time discovered the server and may have uploaded the design code of the game. The people in the server slowly evolved according to that game and created the new game they were playing now.
What was the other party's purpose? They didn't know. Perhaps they wanted to communicate with the outside world. For example, they wanted to tell them about the internal situation of the server. However, they couldn't communicate directly, so they used a more special method. For example, they designed a lot of information about this in the game. However, this communication might have failed? In short, there might be some accidents.
Then the question now was, where did the staff go? Yes, there was no one in the company here. The only person, Hoffman, appeared in front of Li Huailin in this way. If it was possible, Li Huailin felt that Hoffman would definitely not turn himself into a lantern, so he must have been forced to do so. From the previous video, it could be seen that Hoffman was being chased. After all, he said something like "they are coming". It was unknown who was being chased, but Hoffman might have used some method to turn himself into this situation to escape the pursuit. This thing appeared in their game, so it was obvious that Hoffman escaped into the game to take refuge. In that case, the others might be in the same situation.
That was what Li Huailin could infer based on the current information. Other than that, Li Huailin had some other analysis. First, there was the World Trial. Yes, the World Trial was obviously not transferred from the original game design. Instead, it was the autonomous behavior of the server. Coupled with the other plan that Hoffman had mentioned, the World Trial might be a program that was born for that plan. Perhaps there was a similar trial in every world in the Paradise System, and the final plan was to choose such a person. However, the purpose was still unknown.
Second was the termination or suspension of the World Trial. Yes, the World Trial was obviously canceled, or rather, temporarily suspended. Li Huailin was inclined to the option of suspending it. After all, the mission here had not failed yet. If it was canceled, the mission should have directly failed or disappeared. However, it was still there, which meant that it should have been delayed. And this matter was obviously caused by him triggering the situation that brought him here.
What Li Huailin wanted to say was that the person who claimed to be his future self might know about this matter. Yes, the other party had only given him the metal rod previously, and did not give him the lantern. The lantern was something that Li Huailin had accidentally obtained later on. In reality, according to what the other party had given him, he would not be able to reach this place called the central hub. After all, the teleportation would require a DNA test.
Why didn't the other party give him everything? First of all, with the metal rod, the other party definitely knew the location of the teleportation device. If the other party was Lin Li's future self, he would definitely want to see what this thing was. Hence, it was very likely that he had entered this place before. Since he had been here before, he must have found DNA that could pass the teleportation test. However, the other party did not give it to Lin Li directly because he knew that the trial would be suspended after triggering this thing. Hence, there would be enough time for him to find DNA that could pass the test. Hence, he did not give it to Lin Li.
But why did he not mention this matter even though it would save him a lot of trouble if he directly gave it to Lin Li? There might be two reasons. First, this kind of DNA was very easy to find. Yes, although Li Huailin only found this one, there were actually many others, so there was no need to worry that he did not mention it. The other reason was that this kind of DNA was very rare, and the other party only had one. For some reason, the other party still needed to return to the central hub, so he did not give it to Lin Li.
No matter which reason it was, Li Huailin felt that this guy must know more. After all, if he came here, the answer he obtained should be similar to Li Huailin. Moreover, the other party also knew that the trial would be suspended. Perhaps he had encountered the same thing before, or perhaps he already knew some inside information. Of course, Li Huailin felt that the other party should know some inside information because the God King did not. From the previous situation, the God King should have participated in the trial, and he was also surprised when the trial was suspended. This meant that the God King did not encounter this thing. Since this was the case, it might be that the future Lin Li obtained the information after completing the trial.
If Lin Li could find this guy and ask him, he would probably know more. However, it was impossible to find this guy on his own initiative. Therefore, although Li Huailin analyzed a lot, there were still many things he did not know. He was basically still confused. Li Huailin felt a bit of a headache. It would be good if he could find someone to ask, but unfortunately, there was no one to ask.
"Hmm …" While thinking, Li Huailin looked at the lantern. Yes, he did not know Hoffman, but the other party definitely knew a lot of information. If he could communicate with this guy, he would probably know a lot. However, the problem was that this guy had become a lantern. What should he do?
"Maybe he can be resurrected …" Li Huailin thought for a while. Yes, this lantern definitely had Hoffman's DNA. That was for sure. With DNA, he could basically use cloning technology to resurrect the other party. However, the problem was that Li Huailin now knew that in this server, the body and consciousness were separated. Even if he used cloning technology to resurrect Hoffman, it would only be the other party's body. If the other party's consciousness was not present, he would not know anything. Then the problem was, was the other party's consciousness in this lantern?
Yes, the problem now was whether this lantern only retained the other party's DNA or was it a prop that could protect the other party's consciousness. If the other party could retain his consciousness in this lantern, he might be able to completely resurrect the other party. At that time, he would also be able to know the relevant information.
"No matter what, let's try it first." Li Huailin thought for a while. Anyway, let's try it first. Even if it failed, it was better than not knowing anything. He would let Zhang Youdong and the others study it first.
"Visitors, please come here to receive the company's gift." Just as Li Huailin was thinking about something, the voice spoke again.
"Gift." Li Huailin suddenly woke up as well. What was this so-called gift from the company? Previously, his future self had mentioned that coming here would allow him to gain the ability to fight against the God King. Could it be referring to this gift? After all, it seemed like the only thing they could get by coming here was this gift.
