The world will surely ensure the survival environnt of the players, otherwise, if they die not due to the collapse of civilization and mission failure, but because of so bizarre reasons, wouldn't that be laughable?
Gu Shanhai entered the villa, and the security around the villa was still very strong.
Likely, Tian Dong spent heavily not only to create corresponding security asures but also arranged for a group of bodyguards for his safety and to keep his secrets from being leaked.
Additionally, even the villa's internal housekeeping, nannies, etc., were ticulously selected.
It can be confird that the other party genuinely cared about his safety.
With such asures, the monthly expenditure must be considerable.
But compared to what he gained from the "Road of Civilization," it's insignificant.
"It's not an old-fashioned computer with pixelated figures." Gu Shanhai entered Tian Dong's secret room, where he was intently observing a scroll painting, which contained ink-style figures.
The presentation of the "Road of Civilization" was entirely different from what Gu Shanhai saw on the computer, with functions similar, but the terminology different.
For example, commands in this scroll were referred to as ink commands.
"Amazing, they arranged different styles of Golden Finger for each person." Gu Shanhai laughed upon seeing this.
The predecessor's vintage computer that he inherited was because the predecessor liked to play gas, so it was presented in a ga format, whereas Tian Dong's might be a Golden Finger ford from an antique he found at a stall.
Although Tian Dong was a designer, his hobby was to buy antiques in his spare ti, of course, previously buying fakes for just a dozen or twenty bucks, until he finally found this scroll.
"A group of Stone Demons, really fateful." Gu Shanhai looked at the ink-style figures of Stone Demons resembling elental life forms in Tian Dong's scroll, a normal form of his Black Stone Demon.
The Black Stone Demon is a mutant of Stone Demons, an exotic variant with greater potential and remarkable talents than ordinary Stone Demons.
"It turns out these Stone Demons belong to the Earth Elent Tribe, thus the civilization of Tian Dong is the so-called Earth Elent Civilization." Gu Shanhai quickly recognized the other's civilization.
"But speaking of it, the 'Road of Civilization' itself seems to have a confidentiality function." Gu Shanhai thought about this.
He could see what was in the scroll in Tian Dong's hand, but if it were another player or non-player groups, they would see only a common landscape painting, not the Earth Elent Civilization within it.
Gu Shanhai wasn't a player of the "Road of Civilization," he only got access through intrusion, and Tian Dong also possessed this authority.
If it weren't for Gu Shanhai being special, when he opened the "Road of Civilization" icon on the vintage computer before, the ga interface wouldn't have appeared, only an unresponsive screen, possibly just seeing an ordinary ga icon, and an ineffective one at that.
Gu Shanhai began collecting data from Tian Dong, who acted as if he didn't notice, as if Gu Shanhai didn't exist.
"Good physical fitness, at least received physique rewards more than a hundred tis."
This 1 physique reward didn't offer much increase, as Tian Dong barely broke through the human limits of this world at this point.
"Many other attributes too, but still far behind the physique attribute."
"It seems the 'Road of Civilization' focuses mainly on physique with the soul as a supplent to increase lifespan; other attributes are probably at the minimum to prevent imbalance leading to physical issues in players."
Gu Shanhai looked at the data collected from Tian Dong.
"With this type of attribute allocation, it maximizes player lifespan, immunity, etc., aiming primarily at longevity."
These collected data were only a setup; what Gu Shanhai truly sought was Tian Dong's player qualification or player data.
After all, he wasn't a real player and would face many troubles later. Having encountered a live one, he couldn't miss the chance to strip Tian Dong's "Road of Civilization" player qualification from him and use it for himself.
Each ti he received reality rewards, Gu Shanhai had to manually receive them, otherwise, without receiving them, the rewards would be targetless, causing data stalemate and overflow.
This was not favorable and would attract the attention of the "Road of Civilization"; having rewards unissued and stuck would indicate an issue.
If Gu Shanhai could get Tian Dong's player data and qualification, he could masquerade as a normal player and use this data to hack further into the "Road of Civilization."
"Found it, indeed anchored with identity and soul as coordinates." Gu Shanhai quickly found the identification system embedded in Tian Dong's soul from the "Road of Civilization."
With this system, he beca a player, able to recognize the "Road of Civilization" carrier he had in hand.
"But it's strange, why did the coordinates I located using the quantum collider point to a deceased player rather than the current living player?"
There should have been two players at that ti, normally, the player located by Gu Shanhai would be Tian Dong.
"Also, the 'Road of Civilization' uninstalled and uncleared in the vintage computer, seed like it already had identified users, yet it hadn't been arranged properly, allowing to preemptively intercept it."
The reason for not arranging was simple, lack of sufficient initial resources and unsuitable environnt.
"Therefore, the anchor was still active then, allowing to capture it."
Gu Shanhai quickly deduced the reason; that was also why he could successfully start the ga through intrusion back then.
"But extracting the player data from Tian Dong is tricky." Gu Shanhai looked at the player data within Tian Dong, not a single entity but like a symbiotic bacterium, spreading deeply within his body and soul.
To extract them, a micro-surgery with extrely high difficulty was required.
Moreover, Gu Shanhai might not be able to extract everything.
The player data in Tian Dong's body was very active, constantly updating and evolving with the progression of the "Road of Civilization," closely integrating with the environnt.
If Gu Shanhai forcefully extracted it, it might cause intolerance in the environnt, leading to data errors.
"Can only survive in specific environnts, which is troubleso." The deeper Gu Shanhai researched, the more complex it beca.
By now, extracting player data wasn't the major difficulty; the real challenge was ensuring that this player data wouldn't collapse due to environntal issues.
"Maybe I shouldn't extract it."
"Just make Tian Dong the port, then I can inherit his Earth Elent Tribe."
Gu Shanhai found this feasible; not only could he hide from the "Road of Civilization," but use Tian Dong as a port to hide himself, sparing him from constantly worrying about manually receiving those rewards from Scorpion Lai Lai Civilization.
Moreover, with this springboard, even if an intrusion failed, Tian Dong would be the scapegoat, not posing a risk of Gu Shanhai being discovered.
"But there's still a hidden danger, the Scorpion Lai Lai Civilization must be destroyed, and then find an unfortunate fellow to take the fall."
"Otherwise, if really letting go like this, it will cause the occurrence of a bug; if a self-inspection and patch co out, I'd suffer a great loss."
Then, Gu Shanhai's eyes fell on Tian Dong, deciding to make Tian Dong the scapegoat, as after becoming a port, he couldn't survive anyway, better to make use of the waste and help Gu Shanhai twice.
"Such a kind person!" Gu Shanhai decided the cooperation plan for both parties without consulting Tian Dong at all.
