Putting the cart before the horse...

Even after the Gardenia Star left, the glow hourglass was still immersed in the contemplation brought by his words just now.

Have you really put the cart before the horse and regarded the game as a reality?

Maybe the Saint is really not that important.

After all, she is just an NPC, has no feelings, and is just a person who follows the procedures.

The construction of Bingxin Island was due to her program. Giving him a brush and distributing benefits to the people on the island was due to the program. Everything was due to the program. Even without her, there would still be a beautiful big sister sitting in that small house waiting for players to visit.

That's right, it must be like this!

Must be...so...?

Gardenia Star looked at her hands that seemed so real even in the game, and began to doubt her own thoughts for the first time.

"Tip, you have a strange call, are you connected to the game?"

Suddenly, the system prompt sound quietly rang.

This is when he called in in real life.

"Click on." He ordered to the voice.

In order to prevent players from being completely immersed in the game and being unable to handle external things, the game cabin specially designed an interface that can be the same as the phone in real life, so that players can answer or make calls in the game.

Such functions have to be said to be very humane.

"Hey, hello, who is it?" A slight current sound flashed, and Gardenia Star answered the phone.

"Well, is it Mr. Tyre von Lindermann?" A young man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It's me, is there anything wrong?"

"Oh, that's it. I would like to ask if you are free this afternoon. I have a business cooperation here to discuss with you."

"Are you taking a movie? There is no problem this afternoon. Just send a text message to the specific time of the request and location. I'll just come here directly. I'll rush over at that time. Is it OK?"

"Then I'll ask you, see you in the afternoon."

"OK."

"Click."

The phone hung up.

Free photographer, this is the work of glow hourglass in real life.

Just like he is doing his own freelancing job in the game.

Someone goes to work when they make an appointment, and they go on holiday when no one makes an appointment. It is much more comfortable to live alone at home.

"Okay, it seems we need to temporarily pull our brains out of this issue." Glow Sand opened the system interface and then touched the 'Exit' button.

...

"Okay, today's shooting is over." Lindman put down his camera that he had held for an afternoon and moved his wrists.

Since the last time he received the order, he hasn't filmed for anyone for a long time, and his feel is a little unfamiliar.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Lindeman." A young man in a cosplay prop suit walked up to Lindeman and patted him on the shoulder.

"It's okay, it's just a little bit of a hand." Lindman looked at the young man's hand in front of him, and a deep scar hidden under his sleeve attracted his attention. "What's wrong with your scar? Can you tell me?"

"Ah?" The young man didn't understand at first, but later he turned to roll up his sleeves and pointed to the scar that seemed to have been cut by a spoil. "Are you talking about this?"

Linderman nodded, which was the default.

"This is actually an accident. I fell down while moving the server and accidentally scratched the server bracket. It's incredible." The young man covered the scar with embarrassment and smiled.

"Server? What job are you doing?" Lindman heard the words "Server" and suddenly became interested in other things.

"Do you work?" said the young man, "I am a game company who studies AI, and I will occasionally maintain the server. Uncle, do you play games?"

Lindman should have refuted it when he heard the young man who was not much younger than him called him uncle, but the word "AI" forced him to concentrate.

"You said...AI?" he asked in disbelief.

"Yes, AI, have you heard of the 'unnamed' game? I am from the Nordic technical department of this game." The young man looked at Lindeman and expressed his identity. "I think even if you don't play games, you should have heard of this name."

Lindemann had not only heard of it, but he had already practiced to level 31 in it.

"Then I want to ask... what are your usual jobs?" Lindman's voice trembled a little, and he ignored the youth's problem.

"What are you doing? I usually do if I debug AI and test AI. What's wrong? Mr. Lindeman, you seem to be very interested?" The young man looked at Lindeman with interest.

"That's right." Lindman nodded, "Since you're dealing with AI, I want to ask you a question."

The young man nodded back. "You ask."

"I want to know... are these AIs the NPCs in the game?" Lindman said.

"Well... most NPCs operate through AI. I think I can answer you with a 'yes' question." The young man affirmed.

Immediately afterwards, he seemed to have reacted.

"Huh? Mr. Lindeman, you are indeed an 'unnamed' game player." The young man looked at Lindeman's slightly vicissitudes of face and said, "No one in the games on the market is using AI except us. This is our unique technology."

"Then..." Lindman continued to insist on asking his own question, "Can I ask a question that may be very professional or mentally retarded?"

"You ask, we treat laymen the same." The young man nodded.

"Are those AIs... they all alive?" Lindman looked at the youth with dim eyes, eager for an answer.

The young man stayed in place when he heard this question. He racked his brains to give the middle-aged man in front of him a reasonable answer.

"If you mean living, if you mean physical level, then I can only say sorry." The young man thought for a long time and finally came up with the answer to the reply.

"But." He raised his head, his bright eyes shot into Lindman's dim pupils.

"If you are speaking from a soul level, then I can answer you with certainty - yes, they are alive."

Lindeman's heart was like a pile of dry firewood, completely ignited by this sentence.

"These AIs, except that they have no physical form, are no different from humans. They will cry, they will laugh, and they have love and friendship in their hearts. Although their memories can be modified, the personality, thoughts and feelings that exist in their souls will not be erased by anything."
