    Chapter 97 Going deep into the black market

    This report is both unexpected and reasonable.

    "Self-immolation..." Noah sat on the cabinet with his legs dangling, "Is this also a cult, or why would he burn himself to death in public?"

    Indeed, An Wujiu thought to himself, if such an accident happened suddenly, there might be almost nothing else.

    But in just two days, the frequency of such elements as cults and religions is too high.

    Still in the real world.

    "Have you found it?" Zhong Yirou frowned slightly and said, "There seem to be more and more religious-related incidents around us, not only in games, but also in the real world."

    Yang Erci seemed to have expected it long ago, and it was not too surprising to see such news.

    "Just from the name, the altar itself has a strong sense of religion."

    Shen Ti sat on the carpet, his legs crossed, one hand supported his cheeks, and the other hand drew something on the carpet.

    An Wujiu opened his mouth and said, "I have always been curious, what is the government's attitude towards the altar? Now that so many people have died in the game, has the government not interfered until now?"

    Yang Erci's face was solemn, "When I first entered the altar, no one would have thought that it would turn out to be death. I am afraid that even the government thought this was just a simple virtual reality game. But later, when someone was eliminated for the first time, the player would Start to panic on a large scale."

    She was the one who went through that mess.

    "Everyone wants to escape and doesn't want to wait to die in the game. Although the current federal government has no real power and can't check and balance with those large multinational companies, they still send the army to protect the players who want to escape, and call for The other players left the game, promising to protect them."

    An Wujiu had already expected the result.

    Shen Ti looked up at Yang Erci, her eyes dimmed.

    "Because the production team of the altar is anonymous and not under the name of a big company, their mercenaries should not appear to hurt the player, so the players who escaped thought that they could successfully escape the altar with the protection of the army. Take control."

    "But it's not like that." She looked up at An Wujiu who was standing upright, "The army watched them die, everyone."

    Noah did not experience that escape, she asked curiously, "How did you die?"

    Yang Erci said it very simply, "After entering the altar, the game cabin automatically installs the altar brain computer for each of our players. In addition to the simple virtual reality experience and various somatosensory functions, there is also a self-destruction device."

    Everyone understood in an instant.

    Zhong Yirou felt sick all over. She was not the players present, but the soldiers of the army who thought they could save these people. They must have been very desperate at that time.

    "So after that, the government won't dare to control it."

    Yang Erci shook his head, "I heard from someone I know that the government is still investigating, they have set up a secret special group, and several researchers are responsible for finding the organization behind the altar, but this news is true or false, who are these researchers? , I don't know."

    Although An Wu Jiu had long regarded Yang Erci as a teammate, he always felt that Yang Erci was hiding something.

    It is very unreasonable for a person like her to abandon Chauvin's research experts to enter the altar to fight. She does not need to make money, and she is not a social class. The two purposes of entering the altar are not in line with the two.

    Then there is only the third type, what is she looking for from the altar, maybe it is people, maybe it is the truth.

    Up until just now, An Wu Jiu couldn't figure out her purpose, only knew that she was very well-connected.

    What Yang Erci described—the player fouled and attempted to escape from the altar and was annihilated cannot be known by a player, at least not witnessed.

    After all, the players who didn't foul at that time must have already returned to the game cabin and entered the next round of the game.

    Therefore, she could only listen to what the people present said. This was not a routine operation, and it was impossible for any passerby to witness it, so the only thing she could tell her was the government army, or even the top officials of the government army.

    Yang Erci's identity is extraordinary, An Wujiu also understands that she doesn't want to reveal these things, after all, it is a taboo to talk deeply at the altar.

    But just now, when she talked about that secret investigation organization, An Wujiu finally understood.

    Yang Erci came to the altar probably because of this special group, or a member of this secret group, who made a special trip to find out the altar organization to go deep into the tiger's den, become a player, and seek the truth.

    Or, she is looking for someone, the player in the special team.

    An Wujiu's speculation was almost subconscious, so when he came to the conclusion, he felt a little chill, not for Yang Erci, but for himself.

    In hindsight, he was terrified of his deep thoughts.

    It turned out that he was really about to merge.

    After everyone learned that the altar was completely beyond the control of the government, they couldn't help feeling a little sad. The only life-saving straw they could rely on seemed to have perished. After reading today's news, I am afraid that this straw itself is in jeopardy.

    Yang Erci didn't go into that topic, An Wu Jiu didn't plan to break it, and didn't ask too much.

    He knew that when Yang Erci truly trusted them, he would definitely speak up.

    There was a knock on the door, Yang Erci checked the face through the electronic housekeeper, and said to everyone, "It's Wu You."

    Noah seemed to like opening doors very much, and was the first to jump off the cabinet and run to open the door for them.

    Zhong Yirou was still calling her from behind, "The housekeeper system can open the door."

    "Yo." Shen Ti, who had not said a word, put his hands behind his back, still sitting cross-legged on the ground, and he said very awkwardly, "Even the function of the housekeeper system in other people's house is clear."

    Zhong Yirou almost couldn't help knocking him on the head, "Don't break your mouth here."

    Shen Ti suddenly pounced on An Wu Jiu who was standing right behind him and hugged his leg, "Wu Jiu, she bullied me."

    An Wu Jiu pretended to be unmoved, "You bully go back."

    Shen Ti sighed, "My wife doesn't help me, alas, it's so bitter."

    An Wu Jiu acted like he was hit by something, he stepped back, "What nonsense are you talking about, don't scream."

    As soon as Wu You stepped into the door with one foot, she heard Shen Ti's words, and now she just wants to retract her foot.

    What kind of evil fate could make him hurt by Shen Ti all the time.

    Yang Erci got up from the sofa and said hello to Wu You. Knowing that he was going to the black market, Yang Erci directly called him who was relatively familiar with the black market.

    An Wu Jiu remembered about Gabriel, so he said hello to Zhong Yirou and gave her Gabriel's contact information.

    Zhong Yirou is a straightforward person. As soon as he heard that the other party was a rich upstart, he immediately nodded like garlic and took over the contact information.

    "But be careful." An Wu Jiu remembered and added, "He is very lecherous."

    Yang Erci, who had been talking to Wu You, looked up at them, but Zhong Yirou didn't notice it at all, instead she asked An Wujiu, "Did he hook you up?"

    "No." An Wujiu felt helpless because of her brain circuit, "He is a straight man."

    Zhong Yirou immediately gave a long "Oh", "No wonder Shen Ti didn't care and let you go so many times."

    Shen Ti, who was sitting on the ground, politely responded to her: "I don't care, some people care, so be gentle."

    Zhong Yirou almost vomited at him.

    It was only at this moment that An Wu Jiu realized that she, who always pretended to be charming, was actually very insensitive to emotional matters, even dull.

    It's a huge difference.

    Wu You came to An Wujiu, "Let's log in first and see if there is anything you want on the black market network."

    An Wujiu agreed.

    Wu You logged in to a virtual ip with his own host, entered the account password, and entered a layer-by-layer encrypted network, which is what he called the "black market".

    But after opening the website, An Wujiu found out that this is not an ordinary shopping or second-hand trading website, they did not list the products, but more like a social network, a community.

    Wu You clicked on the people he had followed to read his latest post.

    Yang Erci on the side noticed that the man just posted a picture of a bag of potato chips without even a single word.

    But when Wu You clicked in, he found that it had been set to not be able to leave a message.

    "No." Wu You looked at An Wujiu, "It has already been sold."

    "This is the Citizen Chip?" Yang Erci asked.

    "Well." Wu You explained to her, "The English word for potato chips is chips, which is the same as chips, so many sellers take this as a slang term."

    In addition to citizen chips, organs, prosthetics, illegal genetic drugs and illegal weapons that have not been tested, including living human bodies, can all be traded here. Obviously, all sales on this website are illegal and violate the rights and interests of those big companies. So all sellers here are extremely careful.

    The website does not provide a way to privately chat with sellers to avoid being tracked by the government. Therefore, only sellers can post, and buyers leave a message to give contact information. The message here is only visible to the poster, and then it will be mailed or hand-delivered by the seller.

    "Is it difficult to buy chips?" An Wujiu asked.

    "Yes, the control is getting stricter now."

    Wu You was a little disappointed when the only source of transaction he found was cut off. He used to trade with this seller, but because he was about to enter the altar at the time, the transaction failed, and he did not have the seller's contact information.

    "Generally, this kind of seller will not have only one, but we may not be able to contact him." Wu You said.

    "Why?" Shen Ti stood up and stretched, "Since he has posted a record, shouldn't he be able to track his ip?"

    "Everyone here uses virtual IPs," Wu You pouted, "No one would be so stupid to use their real IPs, not to mention that the website has multiple layers of protection mechanisms, and even virtual IPs are fake. The average person is It is impossible to find out, unless it is a very powerful hacker."

    Shen Ti cleared his throat, "To tell you the truth, I really have a little bit of hacking skills."

    Wu You has an expression like a ghost believes you, "What are you doing fart."

    An Wu Jiu almost laughed, he turned to look at Shen Ti, "Really?"

    Shen Ti shrugged, "I'll try."

    After he finished speaking, he borrowed Yang Erci's studio and Wu You's host to start writing code.

    Wu You originally thought he was bragging and just wanted to see his jokes, but he didn't expect that Shen Ti really didn't lie this time.

    It didn't take too long, Wu You's host began to screen all possible virtual IPs and automatically screened them out.

    "No, how can you do this?" Wu You's face wrinkled.

    "Learn." Shen Ti snapped his fingers, "Go up, go up, go up, there is a player who is a hacker."

    Yang Erci asked, "Teammate?"

    Shen Ti shook his head, "Your opponent."

    Wu You didn't believe it: "You lied!"

    "Believe it or not, it's up to you."

    Shen Ti looked shy, and Wu You was even more angry.

    In about two or three minutes, the program written by Shen Ti found two possible IPs, and the addresses located by these two IPs were not far from each other, and they were both in the same city.

    After success, Shen Ti looked at the time, then took An Wu Jiu's hand and shook it twice.

    "Want to look for it?"
