What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Xiang Kun looked at the time, it was almost a little closer, Zicheng was still playing games with his legs crossed, but he had already put on his earphones, he obviously thought that Xiang Kun was asleep, and was afraid that he would be disturbed by playing it outside.

After a casual glance, I found that Zicheng no longer played the jungler, but instead played support, running with the jungler Arthur.

Judging from what he said and the voice coming from the earphones, it was obvious that the jungler was Yang Jie.

You don't even need to look at their game situation, just listen to their conversation, and you know that the game just now will not be too smooth.

After resting for a while, Xiang Kun closed his eyes again. This time he did not enter the "super sensory state" again, but sensed the "black circle graffiti" torn from a certain notebook by Mi Qiao in Qicheng City.

That "graffiti" was a "mark" made by Xiang Kun after observing the surrounding environment information of a certain pencil drawing that established an "emotional injection" connection under the "super sensory state".

This "mark" does not directly transform all the information observed in the "super-sensory state", but only a very small part of the information that he can "understand" through the normal state and the "super-sensory state". After the comparison, the summarized part.

For example, the feedback information of different people under different emotions, such as the state of some electronic equipment under different working conditions, such as different feedback information of current magnitude, such as feedback information of different building space structures, etc.

To some extent, these "marks" were like the "assembly language" that Xiang Kun could "understand" based on the sensory feedback that he could "understand" in the "super sensory state" and that only he could understand.

It's just that he still can't use this language to "program", it can only be used for interpretation and induction.

To others, the various circles and arcs on that piece of paper look like aimless "graffiti" or "artistic creation" that ordinary people cannot understand.

Xiang Kun was in Qicheng City before, found Mi Qiao's trace, and confirmed where she lived, folded one of the "graffiti" into a special paper airplane, and placed it on the balcony of her master bedroom. Make it look like someone else accidentally shot the plane here.

According to the cognitive model established by Xiang Kun through Guo Tianxiang's memory fragments and analysis and interpretation of Mi Qiao's various items, she has an instinctive interest in novel and "technical" things.

So if she sees the paper airplane folded by Xiang Kun on the balcony, there is a 90% probability that she will keep the paper airplane and dismantle it.

Because the special folding method of the paper airplane was "invented" by Xiang Kun himself, the targeted counterweights in each place,

It can make it more stable when flying, fly farther and longer. And at a glance, it feels very special.

Of course, if Mi Qiao dismantled the paper airplane, he would definitely notice the "graffiti" on that paper.

Most people think that this is scribbling, but with Mi Qiao's personality, there is a high probability that she can see the "regularity" in those patterns and lines, which will prompt her to keep the painting actively, and even ponder it .

Because at that time, the only items around Xiang Kun that had established an "emotional injection" connection were those "graffiti" that were filled with black circles. It's a bit big for those paper sheets. It cannot be torn into small pieces or otherwise damaged, so it is difficult to stuff them in the corners of some utensils like small pieces of paper used for positioning. So Xiang Kun used this experiment to find a way to get her to accept it and keep it by her side.

Of course, this was also an experiment that Xiang Kun deliberately wanted to conduct.

He wanted to see whether the cognitive model he had established through limited information before direct contact with people could be used to effectively deduce behavioral patterns.

Looking at it now, Mi Qiao has indeed kept the black circle graffiti with him, and even took it to the company, to the secret research base of "Shenxing Technology".

It can be seen that his deduction and prediction of Mi Qiao's behavior are correct.

Although Xiang Kun knew that the paper had the same effect as "emotional injection" after he finished drawing those black circle graffiti, but they really became "emotional injection" items, which created a direct sensory connection with him , or after the blood-drinking mutation the day before yesterday.

He had already sensed the graffiti in the black circle last night, and indeed successfully triggered Mi Qiao's dream, and also saw her dream.

But in that dream, Xiang Kun always felt a little weird.

There is nothing wrong with the dream itself. It is Mi Qiao who is sitting in front of the computer to crack a system. There are four screens hanging on the wall in front of him. Power lines are everywhere on the ground. There are miscellaneous snack bags everywhere. Fat House Happy Water.

Mi Qiao's emotions are focus, devotion, and exhaustion, as well as some doubts and confusion, just like Xiang Kun's emotions when he was focusing on feedback from the surrounding environment in the "super sensory state".

But what made Xiang Kun feel a little strange was that during the entire dream, he did not find the emotional projection of the "emotional injection" item.

Before, when he induced other people's dreams by sensing "emotional injection" items, he would see the corresponding emotional projections in the dreams.

Emotional projection is not directly related to what the "emotional injection" items he made look like, but has a direct relationship with what he thinks, thinks, and feels when he is performing "emotional injection".

Whether it is a minion, a wood carving with eight arms and eight eyes, rabbit meat, or Mr. Saitama, an old man who teaches calligraphy, or even his own image, there are various emotional projections, but they will definitely appear, and as long as they appear, you will feel Xiang Kun in the dream will definitely know.

But in Mi Qiao's dream, from beginning to end, he did not perceive the existence of emotional projection.

And he always had a feeling that he didn't see the whole picture of the dream.

Could it be that the emotional projection needs to enter the "super sensory state" in the dream to see it?

But in someone else's dream, how does he enter the "super sensory state"?

Knowing, feeling, are other people's ah!

The perception of Mi Qiao's dream last time left a lot of doubts, so today after guessing that Mi Qiao fell asleep, he perceived it again.

Before, he was more interested in Mi Qiao's dream itself, although the rabbit wood carving and bones were not sent to Qicheng City, but to another place. But after hearing the conversation between Mi Qiao and that "Mr. Liang", I knew that this female hacker who helped Guo Tianxiang "fish" before had also come into contact with a lot of confidential information in the secret department of "Shenxing Technology". matter.

But now, after sensing again and triggering the graffiti in the black circle to enter Mi Qiao's dream, what Xiang Kun cared more about was the exploration of his "emotional infusion" item.

This time, the dream is still triggered as soon as the induction is made, and it is substituted into Mi Qiao's perception in the dream.

She was sitting in a corner of a restaurant, intently watching the monitor screens on her laptop.

With just one glance, Xiang Kun immediately realized that this was the situation when she was tracking her with Guo Tianxiang.

However, because her attention was all on tracking Xiang Kun, Guo Tianxiang, who was supposed to be by her side, did not appear in her dream.

Xiang Kun didn't pay much attention to the process of the dream, but began to try to enter the "super sensory state" in the dream.

But the premise of the "super sensory state" is that his perception ability is far stronger than that of ordinary people, and he even has a "sixth perception" that ordinary people do not have at all. He can clearly feel changes in the atmospheric electric field and can perceive some things that ordinary people cannot perceive. Only by integrating those perceptions can one enter the "super sensory state" while temporarily abandoning the five normal senses.

In other people's dreams, Xiang Kun's perception was based on other people's perception information.

It's like watching a movie remotely connected to other people's screens. That movie is a 500mb high-compression format, which is the picture decoded by the integrated graphics card on the other party's computer. No matter how high your own configuration is, it is useless.

So after pondering for a while, Xiang Kun gave up the idea of ​​directly entering the "super sensory state" in Mi Qiao's dream, and instead focused on her various perceptual details, from the picture, sound, touch, Start with the smell and so on.

Xiang Kun began to try to reversely "transform" these perceptions into various information in the "super sensory state", of course, the part that he could "transform" and "compile".

And when he started to think this way, Mi Qiao's dream suddenly changed dramatically, and all the surrounding scenes disappeared instantly, turning into a space composed of various lines and circles, and these lines and circles are still going on. With change and movement.

Xiang Kun immediately realized that this was the expression of the "super sensory state" of the dream perception part that he could transform and compile.

No, this expression is also not accurate, which is different from the perception in the "super sensory state".

In the "super sensory state", those information cannot be described by traditional senses such as vision and hearing, but now the information is directly "visible".

They were not "translated" into the corresponding information in the "super sensory state", but the special marks summed up by Xiang Kun himself.

In this state, Xiang Kun found that his perspective of perception was no longer fixed to be the same as that of Mi Qiao, the owner of the dream, but could move freely.

Xiang Kun understands that this is the emotional projection form of the "black circle graffiti", which cannot be perceived with the traditional senses, but is hidden deep in another layer of the dream, and can only be entered if he knows how to "decode". .

This discovery made Xiang Kun very excited, because it could further help him improve the "compilation" of Mi Qiao's perceptual information.

As long as there are enough samples, he believes that soon, a set of cognitive models that can translate Mi Qiao's perceptual information in the "supersensory state" can be summed up.

At that time, after entering the "super sensory state", he can descend around Mi Qiao through the "black circle graffiti", and then observe the changes in her perception, so as to know what she sees, hears, and feels, which is equal to Mi Qiao has become his remote "camera", and it is also a "camera" that can collect various sensory information.

If this collection method is expanded and the scope of sampling is extended to the entire human population, then Xiang Kun may be able to obtain more comprehensive environmental information by interpreting other people's sensory feedback in the "super sensory state" in the future.

This is far easier than directly "decoding" the surrounding environmental information. The amount of data and the difficulty are not at the same level, and it is more conducive to understanding, which is equivalent to a shortcut!

While thinking about it, Xiang Kun suddenly discovered that he seemed to be able to control the various circles and lines in the "supersensory state" in the dream, affecting their shape and movement state.

Xiang Kun immediately understood that in this dream, this "supersensory state" was based on the various perceptions and emotions in Mi Qiao's dream.

And he can, in turn, affect Mi Qiao's dream perception and emotions through the influence of various information in the "supersensory state".

Because this dream was originally guided and established by the black circle graffiti of the "emotional injection" item, it can be said that it is a part of the platform and system of this dream, so Xiang Kun wants to influence Mi Qiao through the "supersensory state" Perception is not difficult, far from reality, he must use items that have established a "super sensory state" to carry out some targeted and one-by-one influences.

After a while, Xiang Kun, who had escaped from the "supersensory state" in the dream, looked at the dream from Mi Qiao's perspective again, and found that the laptop screen in front of him had become a long strip with a height of more than two meters, and Mi Qiao The fingers typing on the keyboard also became 20 to 30 centimeters long, which was very weird.

But from the subjective perspective, Mi Qiao didn't feel any strangeness. He still tapped the keyboard and clicked the mouse with his stilt-like fingers.

Xiang Kun knew that this was the result of his influence in the "super-sensory state" just now.

It's just that he's not familiar enough with the coding of those information and comprehensive enough to modify it in too much detail. He believed that after a few experiences, he should be able to use Mi Qiao's existing dream scenes to make more complex edits, which might allow her to see specific images and hear specific sounds.

After exiting from Mi Qiao's dream, Xiang Kun gave a somewhat contented stretch.

He had realized that the "marks" drawn by collating the feedback information in the "super sensory state" would have special effects, but he didn't expect such a special effect.

Now those papers with "black circle graffiti" are like hacking software that can invade other people's dreams.

And no one is aware of the existence of this "hacking" yet.

He glanced at Zicheng who was still playing games on the other bed next to him. Judging from his stern and bitter expression, it seemed that their battle situation had not changed much.

...

It was around three o'clock in the morning, in a high-end community in Qicheng City.

Mi Qiao sat up from the bed, rubbed his eyes, and went to the bathroom to urinate.

Sitting on the toilet, she looked at her hands, turning them over and over, recalling the dream she had before, feeling a little inexplicable.

In that dream, her laptop screen was stretched into a long strip, looking like a floor-to-ceiling mirror, and her fingers became super long, and her two hands were like two huge crabs.

Thinking about that scene now, it's both a little funny and a little scary.

How can I have such a dream? What does it portend?

Mi Qiao shook his head, wondering if he was thinking about vampire-related things all day long, so he thought he would mutate into that?
