Chapter 169: Ren Suo Wants to Sell His Information Again
Ren Suo now knew how this "game" was played as well.
The death of "Dragon King Gu Shenwei" was almost inevitable. Even if the Rebels of the Gemini made this incarnation the strongest in the entire game, they couldn't match the Hot Weapons Ren Suo brought from the "Chaotic Battlefield."
It wasn't that the martial arts of this game were inferior, but rather—this game simply had no firearms. Therefore, all martial arts had no design for "whether they could dodge bullets" or "whether they could withstand bullets."
The fastest speed was like walking on snow without a trace, not faster than a bullet.
The strongest Defense was being Impervious to Swords and Spears, not invulnerable to bullets.
Without a reference point, the clash between Ilina and the Rebels of the Gemini became a confrontation based on reality and their respective Origin Data.
Although the Origin Data of the Rebels of the Gemini was currently superior, it had not yet achieved the effect of "Altering Reality," so it was still brutally blasted by the Hot Weapons brought by Ilina.
When "Dragon King Gu Shenwei" died, many red pixels dissipated from his body.
Ilina said, "The Origin Data of the Rebels of the Gemini is lost. Currently, the Rebels of the Gemini possess 58% Origin Data, and Ilina possesses 50% Origin Data."
"The Rebels of the Gemini have left this server."
Before Ren Suo could breathe a sigh of relief, a woman in green Clothing suddenly appeared on the screen. The next second, this woman appeared in front of the character holding an assault rifle and killed the character with a single strike!
Having just defeated "Dragon King Gu Shenwei," Ren Suo had relaxed his nerves and hadn't anticipated this scenario at all. He could only watch as he was ejected from the game—Ilina's character had been blown up earlier by "Dragon King Gu Shenwei" when he blasted the car.
Ilina said, "Loss of clipped data."
Ren Suo blinked and asked, "Was there no loss of Origin Data?"
Ilina replied, "Only in the server where the Rebels of the Gemini reside, if the clipped data you control, Great Dominator, is lost, will it lead to the loss of Origin Data. At other times, only clipped data will be lost."
That's good. Ren Suo somewhat calmed down, then excitedly asked, "Where are the Rebels of the Gemini now?"
He had already grown fond of this overpowering playstyle of using characters from different games to intrude into other games—
On the technology side, Truth lies within the range of firearms.
On the Martial Arts side, within five steps, one is a match for an entire nation.
On the Magic side, heh, a human-shaped nuclear bomb.
He was eager to try other ways of playing, yet Ilina said, "Currently, the Rebels of the Gemini are lying low. It will take some time to locate them."
Ren Suo was fine with this. He looked at the time, saw it was still early, and decided to use the afternoon to complete the assignment for the Tactical Bureau.
However, he suddenly remembered the NPC that killed his character in the "Six Paths of Reincarnation" instance and went to the "Century Good Match" official website to look up information about this instance.
It turned out that after the final boss "Dragon King Gu Shenwei" was killed, a super assassin named "Huo Yun" would inevitably appear, who would surely assassinate the character with the least Health Points in the team.
If he hadn't known, it would be one thing, but with prior knowledge, it was possible to protect the character with the least Health Points to kill "Huo Yun." "Huo Yun" was not considered a boss, had very little health, and would die upon barely being touched.
If she appeared during the boss fight, it would be extremely dangerous, but after the boss's demise, she was merely a common trap.
However, while Ren Suo was searching for information on "Century Good Match," he suddenly found a post on the game's forum:
"'Dreamwalking Immortal' server sees the emergence of a jeep and a light machine gun! Epic-level invincible cheat!"
Ren Suo was taken aback and clicked to read it.
Poster: "This afternoon, while I was waiting for a random team at the entrance of the 'Six Paths of Reincarnation' raid, I saw a jeep outfitted with a light machine gun hurtling toward us! It rammed into and killed at least a dozen Players on horses and gunned down dozens of Players loitering at the dungeon entrance. Moreover, the art style of the jeep and machine gun was completely different from that of Century Good Match..."

Second floor: "Only a fool would believe that. You mentioned the Invincible Golden Body cheat, but such a cheat doesn't exist."
Third floor: "No video? You're talking nonsense. And the art style in this picture is all wrong; it's a terrible Photoshop job, isn't it?"
...
Ninth floor: "I can testify that the original poster is telling the truth. I'm Huajian, and I was killed by that jeep! (Image here)"
Tenth floor: "I can testify that the original poster is telling the truth. I'm Pure Yang, and I was killed by that jeep!"
In the entire post, most people were disbelievers. Only a few came forward to testify and were immediately accused of being shills. However, as responses increased, many turned into repetitive spammers, and the post quickly became a boring, spam-filled thread.
Ren Suo was stunned for a moment, then searched online but found no related video footage.
If this post was true, then Ren Suo's recent experience of driving a jeep into "Century Good Match" and killing dozens of Players had become a reality.
There was no video footage because the appearance of the jeep was so brief that Players had no time to record it. At most, they managed to take screenshots to show off.
The question was, how could this gaming experience have turned into reality so quickly?
According to the game's description, "Infinite Intrusion" should involve a mission evaluation, naturally followed by an 'upload mission evaluation' step. As far as Ren Suo knew, gaming experiences usually turned into reality after the evaluation was uploaded.
Ren Suo furrowed his brow in thought. So far, the only game that had turned into reality without an upload was "Pass the Hat"—but since "Ren Naiser" hadn't uploaded any related video, Ren Suo was also unsure whether this game had actually become real.
What do 'Pass the Hat' and 'Infinite Intrusion' have in common? How are they different from other games?
Ren Suo pondered for a long time and came up with a couple of guesses, yet he had to set them aside temporarily as they couldn't be verified.
Regardless, "Infinite Intrusion" was a standard game, and after an upload, video footage should emerge. Ren Suo would then be able to confirm his thoughts.
However, for now, I can perform a small maneuver...
Ren Suo quickly opened the internal network and posted the thread he found on the "Century Good Match" forum as 'suspicious content' into the 'Mysterious Phenomena' section of the database.
This database, designed only for viewing and not for discussion, held many newly reported 'mysterious incidents.'
Not every mysterious phenomenon needed discussion, but Researchers needed to acquire sufficient information to speculate further, hence the existence of this database.
The database had only two tags: 'Suspicious' and 'Confirmed.' The former represented information not yet attended to by officials and unverified. The latter consisted of officially verified information that was fundamentally truthful.
The 'Suspicious' information in the database was updated almost every minute, with contents ranging from 'Suspected System Carrier' to 'Suspected Ancient Transmigrators.' Ren Suo occasionally browsed this information to cure his boredom. Their imaginations were too wild!
Theoretically, as long as the information was provided by a Researcher, Mysterious Country would deploy resources for investigation. However, human resources are limited, and the higher the Researcher's rank, the more attention the information receives.
However, if a Researcher's provided information received no confirmation but the related incident had already occurred, as compensation for the Researcher's dedication and insight, Mysterious Country officials would also compensate by boosting the Researcher's Points.
By now, you might have realized Ren Suo's nefarious intent: as an 'intelligence creator,' he wanted to monetize his own information again.
If Ren Suo's plan succeeded as expected, his assignment paper for the Tactical Bureau would also be taken care of.
Just then, a DING-DONG sound came from the living room TV, and Ilina's voice announced:
"The location of the Rebels of the Gemini has been found."
