"— — — —"
Silence filled Rozen's room.
Rozen sat on the edge of the bed with his phone in his hand, and he fell into silence because of Kikuoka Seijiro's words.
Kikuoka Seijiro was also silent.
Soon after …
"Hey, Aoki-kun." Kikuoka Seijiro asked, "Is it possible to kill someone in the game and let their body die in the real world?"
There was only one answer to that question.
"No." Rozen said bluntly, "If it was before, it might be possible, but now, you should know better than me that it's impossible."
That's what happened.
After the SAO incident and the ALO incident, the country paid a lot of attention to stealth technology and VR games, and for the safety of the people, many measures were taken.
For example, the first generation of NERvGear would be recycled and destroyed, and the AmuSphere would be inspected and optimized countless times. Only after it was confirmed to be absolutely safe would it be allowed to be sold to prevent any accidents from happening.
Even Rozen no longer used NERvGear, and now he was using the latest AmuSphere for stealth.
In addition, according to the requirements of the country, when developing AmuSphere, it was necessary to set up a number of safety devices and limiters, so that AmuSphere could not generate electronic signals with a fixed amplitude, so as to avoid causing substantial damage to the Players.
For example, in the real world, many people died from extreme fright. When they saw overly stimulating images, it would also affect the brain nerves and the secretion of hormones such as adrenaline. It would cause substantial effects to the body in the real world, causing accidents.
The country completely put an end to these situations and added safety devices and limiters to AmuSphere. Once such things happened, it would be forcibly suppressed and blocked to ensure the safety of the Players.
If Susumu Shinzhi used the current Full Stealth device to log in at that time, he probably wouldn't have died.
Because when excessive pain occurred, the safety devices and limiters would also work, forcing the Players to disconnect.
In summary, nowadays, it was almost impossible to use means to affect the real world through the game.
Even Rozen couldn't kill his opponent in the real world in the imaginary world.
After all, Rozen didn't have any magical power in the game, and he couldn't use any Mystics except Eye of the Mind.
Under such circumstances, if Rozen couldn't do it, he didn't believe anyone else could.
However …
"Then how do you explain Death Shot?"
Kikuoka Seijiro asked the most fundamental question.
The Player named "Dead Shot" killed someone in the game, causing the player he killed to also die in real life.
"Even if it's a coincidence, isn't it too much of a coincidence to have two consecutive coincidences?"
Kikuoka Seijiro's words were basically the same as what Rozen was thinking.
Rozen also didn't think that such a coincidence would happen twice.
However …
"If you really care that much, then just contact GGO's operator and let them analyze the records. You'll know who Dead Gun is right away, right?"
Rozen said.
As the operator of the game, Kikuoka Seijiro could certainly investigate Death Shot's login data, use the IP location to ask the network operator, and thus know his real name and address.
At that time, Kikuoka Seijiro could arrest him in the real world and interrogate him.
Unfortunately …
"Do you really not know, or are you pretending to be confused?"
Kikuoka Seijiro said with a bitter tone.
"GGO's developer, Zaskar, set the game's server in the United States, and not to mention the company's location, even the phone number and email address are not disclosed. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a foreign underground company.
The owner of Seed will receive 50% of the game's profits from various VR game operators every month. As the most popular VR game right now, not only will they charge a high 3,000 yen connection fee, but they will also receive a huge amount of money from GGO. You should have received it, and there's no way you don't know its operator's information, right? "
You know, although "The"
Seed was managed by the state, and it was also the state that collected royalties and game profits from major companies. But after deducting the taxes, all the income will be transferred to Rozen's account, so Rozen's account has accumulated an astronomical amount of wealth.
Even the country itself was a little greedy for this amount of wealth. If others were to find out, there was an 80% chance that something would happen.
If it wasn't for the fact that the technology that Rozen had traded with the country hadn't been realized yet, the country was still researching it, and the more they researched, the more shocked they became. As a result, they became very interested in Rozen, and there would definitely be a lot of high-ranking officials who wanted this money.
How could Rozen not know about GGO?
No wonder Kikuoka Seijiro felt resentful.
However, Rozen rolled his eyes.
"I'm only in charge of collecting money. I don't care about anything else. How would I know anything about GGO?" Rozen said disapprovingly, "In short, you're trying to tell me that you can't do anything about Death Gun at the moment, right?"
"… That's right." Kikuoka Seijiro's voice became resentful.
Rozen smiled.
"You're not calling me because you want me to contact Death Gun directly in the game to find out the truth, are you?"
Rozen smiled faintly.
"As expected of Aoki-kun, you saw through my intention in an instant."
Kikuoka Seijiro's voice became flattering again.
For that …
"Sorry, I don't have time. Go find someone else."
After that, Rozen was about to hang up the phone.
"Don't! Aoki-kun! " Kikuoka Seijiro hurriedly stopped him: "That Death Lance only targets high-level Players, and they're all top Players who can be ranked in MMO Trend's" Winner of the Week ". Besides, it's dangerous, so we can't just let anyone get in contact with him. Apart from you, I can't think of anyone who can get in contact with Death Lance and still have the ability to protect themselves!"
"Yes." Rozen was bored and said, "But what does that have to do with me?"
"I … I will pay you!"
Kikuoka Seijiro said eagerly.
"I don't lack money."
Rozen coldly refused.
"Then … at least listen to Death Gun's voice!" Kikuoka Seijiro didn't give up and said, "In the first incident, the Players on the scene recorded his voice. I will send you the file, and you can listen to it …"
Kikuoka Seijiro didn't have time to finish his sentence.
Rozen hung up the phone and yawned.
"If it's just information, I can help you ask around. Anyway, I'll do that when I need it."
But to ask Rozen to help him arrest the criminal?
Rozen didn't have that much free time.
If Kikuoka Seijiro could offer something that could tempt Rozen, Rozen wouldn't mind going there.
Money?
Rozen didn't lack it, and he didn't need it.
Rozen only wanted to maintain a business relationship with Kikuoka Seijiro.
As for the others …
"Forget it."
After that, Rozen walked out of the room to wash up and eat.
He didn't notice that a file had been sent to his phone and even to his computer.
