Low-Tech Tribe

Baozi thought for a while before speaking, "Pipi, no, pp-head, please open the forum. There's a small group at the bottom of the forum. Take a look at the chat history first."

PP hesitated for a moment, then opened the forum, scrolled to the bottom, and sure enough, saw a small group. His eyes widened even more.

"We... we know each other!?"

"Do you remember what happened in yesterday's game?" Baozi asked.

The PP boss shook his head. "As far as I can remember, I was doing some neural programming tasks at the company."

"Alright, the only solution now is for you to log off first."

The PP leader was still wary of these strangers, and said directly, "This game has an anti-pervert system, you know?"

Baozi choked for a moment, then rolled her eyes and said, "Then please go offline at the company. We'll wait here, okay?"

How did you know me—

PP paused for a moment. If he really knew the other party, then it would be perfectly normal for the other party to know his birthplace.

However, this idea is truly terrifying.

"You, you just wait!"

The boss of PP jogged into the company, where two cybernetic security guards at the entrance were watching them intently.

"What's going on?" The most muscular guy was still in a daze.

"This kind of memory loss can't happen in reality, right?" The usually carefree Red Flower Fairy was unusually frightened.

You'll find out soon enough.

While the group was waiting, a crowd of protesters quickly surrounded the main entrance of "Beautiful Interconnect".

"Oppose moral chips, oppose man-made shackles."

"Oppose corporate expansionism, oppose human commodification."

"Defend human ethics, defend the freedom to commit crimes!"

Soon, a group of fully armed cybernetic security guards appeared, wielding water guns, and sprayed the group away.

In the friends list, the pp leader is offline, but in the small group on the forum, the pp leader is online.

"I'm so sorry, so sorry, so sorry! I don't know what happened. I was supposed to log in and do the tasks, but once I logged in, I forgot everything!" - PP Boss

"Can you remember anything after logging off?" Baozi asked quickly.

"Mmm, as soon as I logged off, I remembered everything!"

Baozi breathed a sigh of relief. If he had forgotten everything after logging off, this game would have been too terrifying.

"So what do we do now?" the airplane asked.

"@pp, how are you feeling right now? Any headaches, fever, nausea, or vomiting?" I love Baozi.

"Brother Baozi, what you're describing are the symptoms of a woman's pregnancy," PP's boss replied with a sweating emoji.

"Are you alright?"

"Yes, that's great."

"Shall we continue with the mission?"

"The problem is, what if she forgets what to do after she logs on?" Black Ice No. 2

'...'

Baozi, who is not a pro but is a veteran player, was unusually silent.

What should we do?

"Actually... I have a way," said PP's boss.

"I'll tell you a secret, a secret I've never told anyone else in my entire life. I'm planning to take it to my grave. Tell it to me online, and she'll know you're not lying."

"What secret?" the plane sent a lecherous emoji.

"Is it really necessary to go this far?" Baozi sent a sweating emoji.

"It's okay, Baozi -ge."

PP sent a courageous emoji.

Actually, I'm not shipping Ahn Chil-hyun and Lee Seung-gi, I'm shipping Lee Seung-gi and the second male lead, Baek Jung-hyuk!

"..." Baozi

'...' Black Ice No. 2

"..." I am the muscle king.

"You're all sending ellipses, so I'm not sending any more. What the heck is this?!" Red Flower Fairy sent a bewildered emoji.

PP's boss replied with a shy emoji.

"Anyway, if you say that, I'll definitely believe you. Okay, stop asking, I'm going online!"

Sure enough, after going online, the PP boss forgot about a few people again.

However, once the chat logs and the CP partner were revealed, PP's leader believed it without a doubt.

"Oh, I know you guys. That's great."

The plane complained, "It's just that you can't use ellipses in the game, otherwise I would have given you one."

On the way back to the city, the usually rough-around-the-edges, muscular burly man suddenly spoke up, "Continuing the mission is fine, but what about the memories? Are we just going to forget them forever?"

Black Ice II thought for a moment and said, "Check your game panel. Are there any negative status effects?"

PP opened the task panel and let out a soft "hmm," "There really is one, a negative status with missing memory data."

"That makes things easier."

"Brother Black Ice, do you have a solution?" PP leader asked excitedly.

"Yes," Black Ice No. 2, wearing sunglasses, patted his waist and said coldly, "I'll shoot you to make you switch accounts, and that will make the negative status disappear."

"..."

After a moment of silence, PP's leader forced a smile, "Actually, I don't think my memories with you, Brother Black Ice, are that important."

"What a witty retort, so scathing!" the plane chuckled.

Just then, Sister Ji spoke.

"Where are you all? Where are you all? Where are you all? What nonsense about shipping? I've sent you the address, get in there now!"

One hour later

Outer urban area, outer ring street

This is the only route that illegal immigrants must take to enter the city that never sleeps.

Baozi and Da Jiba, dressed as ordinary passersby, were strolling along the street.

They soon discovered a body.

The body was damp from the puddles on the ground, and its face was swollen, but the two of them were already used to this kind of scene that was considered too explicit for adults.

Big Muscle Man let out a soft "Eh?" and said, "How come this corpse doesn't show any signs of alteration?"

Baozi glanced at it and said, "This is the low-tech class."

What is the "low-tech group"?

"The low-tech group is a group of people who do not believe in any scientific modification technology and advocate a return to primitive life. There are quite a few of these people on the outskirts of cities, often in tribes."

"Holy crap, I don't believe in technology. How did these people survive? Did they practice slash-and-burn agriculture?"

"Why do you care so much?"

Baozi found a security camera on the street. These are mostly remnants from ancient times, but they are old and in disrepair, so it's hard to say whether they are still usable.

Baozi has been running the shop for a while now, and while he hasn't quite mastered the prosthetic body repair technique, he has certainly mastered the 'basic repair' skill.

He stepped onto the telephone pole, quickly disassembled it, and replaced the battery.

"How is it? Does it work?" he asked in the group chat.

"Yes, no problem," the PP boss replied.

"That's fucking amazing! A human brain hacking into a camera—how did they even manage that?"

Meanwhile, at a gas station on another street, Black Ice No. 2 sat in front of a hot dog stand, a cigarette dangling from his lips, warily watching his surroundings. Next to him was PP Boss.

At this moment, the network implantation chamber on PP's head was constantly displaying strings of code.

The neural signals are converted into simulated data, which are then amplified by the implantation chamber and used to invade other electronic products.

However, compared to the instantaneous intrusion capabilities of Cyber Hacker, she was much slower. On average, it took PP Leader ten minutes to intrude into even the most basic electronic device, namely a camera.

Her maximum is five.
