Sword Sorcery - Chapter 2

[Chapter 2 Poisoning]

“Alarm! The host is being poisoned!”

Aaron was stunned when he heard the alarm sound resounding in his mind, because the crisp and soft voice was the chip system sound that he was very familiar with – this is the system default sound of the smart chip!

“Zero?!”

“Yes, No. 0 is serving the host. This service system is developed by Xunteng Company and is committed to providing customers with better, more complete and more accurate services. If you have any questions, please call 15488845. The final interpretation right of the system belongs to Xunteng Company. all.”

“really……..”

This time, Aaron can be absolutely sure that he has an additional smart chip on his body – it is the new VR smart chip developed by him and his colleagues day and night, an epoch-making work used to overturn the original market!

This new VR smart chip adopts an asana-like structure, which can be directly connected to the central nervous system, achieving 100% undifferentiated conscious reading, and has various powerful auxiliary functions such as data analysis and information sorting. It is not so much a piece of The chip is rather a masterpiece of the perfect combination of human body and intelligent machinery.

Originally, Aaron and his colleagues took the evening flight to the Magic Capital to hold a press conference on this chip, but they did not expect to encounter the extremely small probability of ‘meteorite smashing the machine’, which is one in billions. All people were killed in the explosion, and Aaron was also engulfed by the flames with the small briefcase——

That small briefcase contains their brainchild, the world’s only epoch-making VR smart chip!

“It seems that when I was swallowed by the flame, an inexplicable soul crossing occurred by chance, and the chip also followed my soul, and an unknown and strange change occurred, and it smoothly merged in the In my soul…”

Aaron quickly figured out the truth of the matter, because his body is obviously not the original body, so he can only travel through the soul, and the smart chip must be integrated into his soul, and travel with him. .

With this in mind, Aaron just wanted to instruct the chip to check whether there is an electronic module with a smart chip in his body, so as to see if his speculation was correct, but he felt a surge of dizziness and weakness that was stronger than before. come-

“Oops, I forgot that I’m still in a ‘poisoned’ state!”

Aaron endured the discomfort and hurriedly instructed the chip: “No. 0, immediately scan and detect the toxins in my body, and draw up a current effective detoxification plan for me!”

“Ding~, accept the task, scanning and testing…”

“At the end of the test, according to the memory data in the brain and the physical condition of the host, it can be determined that the toxin in the host is black eyeliner snake venom. If no measures are taken, it is expected that the host will fall into a state of general paralysis after 2 hours and 37 minutes, and 3 hours After 10 minutes, he entered a semi-coma state, after 3 hours and 57 minutes, he fell into a state of organ failure, and after 4 hours and 10 minutes, the function of all organs ceased and he died completely.”

“Ding~, No. 0 is formulating the current effective detoxification plan based on the host’s memory…”

“The drafting is over. At present, there is only one feasible and effective plan. Go into the mountains and forests around the village to find the ‘Red-patterned saffron leaves’ and swallow them directly. It can perfectly eliminate the black eyeliner snake venom and completely relieve the host’s poisoning state.”

“Given the common occurrence of ‘Crystiana japonica’, the success rate of the current scheme is about 93.4%.”

Hearing this, Aaron’s face loosened slightly, and he secretly speculated: “The probability is as high as 93.4%, so as long as I follow the action plan listed in the chip, basically I can successfully solve the current fatal crisis.”

Thinking of this, Aaron leaned on the edge of the bed and tried hard to get up—he had to go to the forest as soon as possible to find the ‘red leaves’.

Otherwise, if the toxin attacks and the whole body is paralyzed, then you can only wait to die.

Since the chip can find this material from the memory data of ‘predecessor Aaron’, the chip must also be able to identify the appearance of this material.

At that time, as long as you wander into the forest, you can hand over the task of searching for the antidote to the smart chip with scanning function.

Aaron didn’t dare to delay, and stood up swaying by the edge of the bed, but just after taking a step, that almost paralyzing dizziness flooded his brain again, if it wasn’t for Aaron’s quick eyes and hands to hold the edge of the table next to him. , the whole person will fall directly to the ground.

“This can’t be done. My physical condition can’t support entering the forest at all. I have to find a way to temporarily relieve the poisoning!”

Aaron hurriedly issued an order to the chip: “No. 0, is there a way to temporarily relieve my physical condition so that I can walk into the forest outside the village smoothly?”

“Di~, according to the data, wood chips can temporarily relieve the dizzy effect of toxins on the brain, and the host can take wood chips to temporarily relieve the symptoms of poisoning.”

Aaron picked up a table knife on the table without hesitation, slashed hard at the wooden table twice, cut off some sawdust, picked up a handful and stuffed it into his mouth, intending to swallow it directly.

However, as soon as Aaron put a handful of wood chips in his mouth, he immediately frowned, not to mention the unbearable bitterness of the wood chips, the dryness in his mouth after drinking alone made these wood chips have no effect at all. The way to swallow, directly stuck in the throat.

Aaron shook the water bag at his waist, but found that there was no water in the water bag, but he didn’t have time to boil water now—

“That’s all I can do~!”

Aaron decided to be ruthless, directly gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain and bit the tender meat of his lower lip, a stream of blood poured directly into his mouth, mixed with sawdust, and was swallowed by Aaron—

Gudu~!

At the same time, the pungent smell of blood and severe pain in his mouth also awakened Aaron’s originally drowsy sanity, and a strong and determined color flashed in his pale red eyes:

“It’s rare to have a chance to be reborn, and I must not die here! I must live!!!”

After waiting on the spot for three or four minutes, the sawdust he swallowed just now seemed to gradually play a role, which gradually eased the dizziness in Aaron’s head, and he could barely maintain his normal walking.

Now that he could act, Aaron didn’t waste any more time, he pushed open the wooden door and stumbled out of the room.

A gust of night wind hit Aaron’s body, and he began to look around—

All the rooms of Aaron and other city guards are in the northwest corner of the village. Except for the road leading to the castle in the south, all directions of the village are high mountains and deep forests.

At this time, the night was getting dark, and the other city guards, including the residents of the village itself, had already slept soundly, and the whole village was plunged into darkness. Fortunately, there were two bright silver moons hanging in the sky, and the falling moonlight made people watch to the vague outlines of something.

After identifying the direction, Aaron didn’t choose to alarm anyone, and walked quietly into the forest in the west direction. When the enemy was unknown, Aaron didn’t dare to tell anyone about his poisoning. After all, he also It’s not clear whether the toxin was contaminated by someone in the bar or accidentally contaminated on the way here, but there is a mysterious conspiracy in it.

In this case, since you can use the chip to find the antidote, there is no need to alert anyone else – if you encounter a potential enemy who is malicious to you, wouldn’t you just shoot yourself with a rock? feet?

Finding the ‘Red-patterned Cypress Leaves’ as soon as possible to remove toxins in the body is the most important thing for him at the moment.

Entering the forest, Aaron began to move forward cautiously, relying on the scanning function of the chip, constantly analyzing the surrounding plants, and at the same time cleverly avoiding some carnivorous beasts – Aaron’s current physical condition Not suitable for a ‘hand-to-hand fight’ with carnivorous beasts.

Half an hour has passed……

In the dark forest, which was as silent as a cemetery, tall and huge trees swallowed the pale white mottled moonlight, casting shadows of the large black forest, making the air in the forest look particularly deep and cold.

There are vague insects in the distance, but if you listen carefully, it is a silent silence, tormenting the fragile nerves of human beings, making people feel as if they are in an ice cellar.

Rao is because of Aaron’s calmness in his previous life, who liked playing horror games and reading thriller novels very much. Walking alone in such an environment, he couldn’t help feeling a little secretive in his heart.

Fortunately, the crisp and pleasant sound of the chip sounded at this moment——

“Di~, found a plant suspected of ‘Red-patterned saffron leaves’, located seven meters to the east in front of the host.”

Aaron breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly followed the chip’s instructions and walked to the front of a bush. He saw a bright red at the bottom of the black bush. Looking closely, it was a piece of jagged red leaves. Grass, very similar to the ‘Syringa ferns’ that Aaron was looking for.

Aaron reached out and unscrewed a red leaf and put it in front of him to observe carefully. At the same time, the zero chip in his mind also began to scan——

“Di~, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com compares the data and memory in the host’s mind, and it can be determined that the probability of this plant is ‘Red-patterned cypress leaves’ is 97.5%, and it is recommended that the host take it immediately.”

Hearing this, Aaron swallowed the red leaf without hesitation, chewed it twice, and swallowed it with a dry, salty and bitter taste. Then Aaron sat down with his legs crossed and began to wait quietly… ..

five minutes later

“Ugh~!”

Aaron opened his mouth and spat out a large pool of black liquid, only to feel that the dizziness that had been lingering in his mind finally disappeared suddenly.

“Ding~, the toxins in the host’s body have been completely removed, re-scan the body…”

“Di~, the scan is completed, the current host’s physical condition is as follows – Host: Aaron Strength: 1.2 Agility: 1.1 Constitution: 1.2 Physical Status: Healthy (slightly weak)”

Aaron frowned. He didn’t expect that the attribute data of this body was actually pretty good, because the standard for the chip’s attributes was the data entered by Aaron himself. standard.

To put it simply, Aaron’s physical fitness belonged to a healthy adult male who exercised regularly in his previous life, but in the city guards, he was ranked at the bottom of the list. It can only show that the physical fitness of the city guards is generally stronger than that of Aaron. It seems that this world It’s not as simple as it seems.

However, what surprised Aaron even more was in the back——

“Ding~, it has been detected that the ‘Red-patterned saffron leaf’ has an enhancing effect on the host’s body. After taking it about 30 times, it can increase agility by 0.3 points. After that, the body will develop corresponding drug resistance, and taking it again will be ineffective.”
