My portable gaming girlfriend

As for the fact that Shen Qing and I went to watch the boss's game alone and left Sakura in the personal computer, which caused her to become jealous and almost format my computer, that's another story...

It’s not that I don’t want to take her there, but I hope that she can understand and accept the human world step by step. Just like what Shen Qing said, she is just a pure child in procedure, and what she sees and hears will affect her consciousness in the future. Knowing growth and personality formation, after the example of her privately watching those bad things in my collection, I have put my heart into re-educating my electronic girlfriend. Not only have I deleted all the content that is not suitable for children, I have also strictly started Manage things that Sakura can touch.

It’s almost like a mother who is worried about the transition—Shen Qing, who made such an evaluation, actually didn’t stop my thoughts. Instead, as a girl, she would recommend some healthy and uplifting knowledge and content for Sakura in the real world.

The two of you are now like the parents of this child. Boss Su You's teasing of the three of us caused Shen Qing to ridicule me and Ying Ying to be jealous all day long and even blackened... Please forgive me, one A sick and very cute portable electronic girlfriend, a beautiful but indifferent cohabitation roommate, whether it is virtual or real, my life is full of crises in every sense.

The boss match, the formation of more than 30,000 people, the venue far away, and the subsequent sinking, all these are too dangerous for Sakura, who is very special even in the awakened AI. Although I don't know why the task of finding a self-aware AI is only done by the non-governmental organization DEBUG, and the official said nothing, but Shen Kong's identity undoubtedly makes it very troublesome for Sakura to meet him.

Whether it is an afterthought or overprotection, I will not hand over Sakura to anyone. It is my responsibility to protect her from harm and integrate into this completely unfamiliar world. It is also one of the reasons why I joined this organization .

After that, Su You came back after dealing with the game-related matters, and my third mission to find self-aware artificial intelligence began...

The name of the game: "Mirror Island", the 3 incidents of brain death in just one month shows that the danger level of this game far exceeds the level of Sakura and Lin Feifei, and we will indeed face the danger of our lives.

Putting on the gaming headset, my communication with reality was cut off.

After entering the game, the first thing you see is the endless blue sea. The sun is bright but not dazzling, and countless seagulls hover between the clouds and the sea.

The beautiful island hanging high above the sun is the virtual scene constructed by this game - Mirror Island.

The waves repeatedly surged up and down the shore, and some debris of broken steel and wood was pushed towards the sand. According to the background of the plot, those wrecks belonged to the wrecked ship that 'us' was on, and it was thanks to the relatively large wrecks that we were able to float to this island...

"Ayuan! It's the first time I saw the ocean~ It's so beautiful~"

I held my forehead—the pink-haired girl who pulled me excitedly, looking excitedly at the vast ocean in the distance as if she had never seen the world, was Sakura. In fact, my virtual girlfriend has never been in contact with the sea. She squatted on the ground like a child and stretched out her hands to touch the surging waves, and was attracted by the beautiful shells.

The fuss because of jealousy before seemed like a fake.

"...Primary school student."

The short brown-haired girl glanced at us helplessly—I can completely understand how a beautiful girl from a wealthy family thinks so, after all, whenever she gives boring and childish feedback on our civilian activities.

"Okay, congratulations on successfully entering the game, everyone can move around now, right?"

The kind and handsome young man with blond hair who spoke to us with a smile is the leader of DEBUG, and Shen Qing's idol Su You. Yesterday he won the 'Shining Star' cup competition with a crushing situation and successfully advanced to the semi-finals, and I have no doubt that next week he will be the champion all the way...

"Well, it's time to move on."

I've never heard this gentle female voice, it must be from the legendary new team member, right? That voice sounds like a beautiful girl.

I looked in the direction of the voice——

Her waist-length hair is scattered behind her, light gold mixed with traces of purple. Although she is wearing the same gray short-sleeved underwear as us, her slender figure is still full of aesthetic lines. looked at us curiously.

A beautiful girl, a 100% beautiful girl, and she exudes an intellectual and elegant atmosphere all over her body, she is the type that men of all ages can eat. However, why is there a strange feeling...

Even though it was the first time we met, where did this sense of discord come from?

No, no, maybe I'm thinking too much... It's just a special reaction to the beautiful girl, right?

It's too bad, even after nearly 10 beautiful girls in two games, are you still uncomfortable with beautiful girls? There is no way to let Sakura know that there is a special reaction.

I glanced at Sakura with a guilty conscience—she was still observing the sea water and sand curiously, and didn't notice any difference in my expression.

I exhaled, it is very likely that I accidentally saved the world just now...

"That's good—by the way, standing here is your new teammate Amami Liyin. Well, Liyin, the ones over there are the waning moon, Sakura, and... the annihilation of the abyss, and the end of time (Ireversible Time). "

"Ah... hello, I'm Tianhai Liyin, please give me your advice."

"...Please, please teach me more."

Tianhai Liyin was stunned for a moment after hearing our names——

Ahhhh——the image of a normal person that has just been maintained until now is completely ruined! This name must have left a bad impression on the new members of the beautiful girl! It should have been changed a long time ago, but I spent all my money on buying VR equipment and couldn’t afford a name change card. Is it my fault that I couldn’t change my name? At this moment, Tianhai Liyin didn't laugh out loud on the spot, which is quite a face. Shen Qing laughed at me for a whole week when she first met me as the waning moon...

The self-confidence I had cultivated so hard to face the beautiful girls in the game was gone all of a sudden, and my mood went down like a ball.

"Pfft, a name only used by junior high school students..."

That's right, it was Shen Qing who was laughing at me again, thinking that someone else was a primary school student, and a junior high school student at another time, this person's personality is really terrible.

"An idiot's name? Your name is no different, 'Eternal Crescent Moon in the Scarlet Sky'."

I focused on the last seven words.

"It's much better than you, isn't that in the late stage of the second disease, the literal meaning and the wrong English, do you think everyone else is a fool?"

"It's ridiculous, where is the text wrong? You are the one who is uneducated."

Even if it is full of names in the second class, you can't lose in the question about the content. The second disease also has its own dignity!

"Okay, now that everyone knows each other, let's start this mission."

The boss, fulfilling his duties as a leader, forcibly interrupted our quarrel.

"..."

Well, it must be very efficient to have the boss overseeing our discussions, at least it won't happen in the last game where I quarreled with Shen Qing countless times, and Sakura stood aside with a dazed face, and everyone completely forgot about the mission . Isn't it that Shen Qing has shut up?

"As you can see, the game "Mirror Island" has been banned because it caused the brain death of three players in a row, which means that players can no longer log in on the SKYLAND platform. Fortunately, we bypassed it with the help of 'programmers' Log in to the system and directly enter this online survival game. According to the programmer's test results, there is a 90% probability that this game has the awakened AI we are looking for."

"What is a survival game? Is it a game where only one person can survive?"

As a good student, Sakura has never touched games, so she really doesn't understand what survival games are, so I just took this opportunity to explain to her,

"Survival games are not like battle royale where you can kill each other until the last person is the goal, but a game where you work together to survive to the end. Strictly speaking, there are certain RPG elements attached here. While building houses on the island to find food , we still need to manufacture weapons and armor, and solve the boss hidden behind to pass the level."

"Is it like the once very classic PC games "Hunger x", "My x World", "Terra x Asia"?"

Boss Su You made supplements for me, which really flattered me.

"This game was originally released under the slogan of paying tribute to the classics. The sales on the SKYLAND platform showed a great success. It sold more than 1 million sets in the first week... If it wasn't for this incident, maybe it would be like Let the predecessors become classics."

I nodded. Also, with such a serious situation, I am afraid that this game will never be open for login again, that is to say, it will be completely sealed and forgotten. As a game, it is really the worst ending.

"Oh~ So that's the case."

Sakura understood our explanation.

"Hmm... For this kind of open game, I suggest to divide it into two parts: exploration and construction - two people are responsible for exploring the wild, and the remaining three people are responsible for building houses. How about this?"

Naturally, there is no problem with such a distribution, and the efficiency is maximized.

"Then, I choose to explore."

Boss Su You was the first to make a choice. Although he also wanted to watch the live broadcast of idols up close, but——

"I'm going to explore too."

So the good opportunity to learn game skills with the boss was snatched by Shen Qing, and this guy showed me a smug smile.

"With A Yuan, we can go anywhere~"

Sakura's mind never changed.

"Then I'll be with... and A Yuan too?"

Tianhai Liyin, who finally decided to go, was obviously hesitant when calling my name, and finally followed Sakura's example and called Ayuan.

Oops--

For a moment, Sakura was like a cat with fried hair, staring at Tianhai Liyin non-stop...

"...Enemy, Sneaky Cat!"

"Hey... why did you say that to me?"

The poor rookie girl still doesn't know where she has offended Sakura.

"A Yuan is the only one who can call me... um..."

"No, no, no... no problem, just call A Yuan."

I covered Sakura's mouth to prevent her from continuing—it's better to be called A Yuan than to let the newcomer call me the full version of the network ID to experience the whole shameful play.

"Huh? Will it cause trouble?"

"Woooo..."

"Go back and talk about it!"

I whispered in Sakura's ear, as long as there is no world, it's fine, Amami Liyin's eyes wandered between me and Sakura, as if we couldn't figure out the relationship between the two of us.

"No, no problem."

Then I didn't give Sakura a chance to speak at all, and I agreed to Amami Liyin.

"That's good."

Huh, I finally kept my image as a senior...

"...Then the matter of forming a team is settled like this. Wan Yue and I will explore the island. The three of you can find a suitable place to build a base. The most basic elements are plains, water sources, and wood. Is that okay?"

"no problem--"

Su You took the trouble to tell us how to play the game. Shen Qing and I have rich experience in the game, and we understand his words very quickly. Tianhai Liyin and Sakura are hard to say.

There is a so-called forest by the beach, which is a very deep natural rainforest, lush and endless, and every tree is definitely a good material for building a wooden house.

But how do we cut down the wood is a problem. It’s not possible to use bare hands. I took a look at my hands, they were just ordinary human hands...

"Ayuan, be careful—"

With the sound of '咻' piercing through the air, a sharp weapon flew past me and embedded heavily in the sand.

My heartbeat quickened instantly, fortunately I dodged in time, otherwise I would be the first victim of this game...

"Wow, where did the ax come from!"

Just now I was thinking about wood, when an ax flew over and almost killed me, did it trigger some mechanism?

"Ayuan! Are you not injured?"

Sakura ran up to me anxiously, touching every part of my body carefully, not even letting go of my face... I quickly pushed her away before she was about to stick it completely.

There was only one person in the direction the ax came from, and it was self-evident who the murderer was.

"No...nothing! Hey! Did you throw the ax? Where did you find it?"

Shen Qing, the murderer, looked at the distance of the sea at this moment, pretending that she had nothing to do with this matter. Seeing that I was fine, she even let out a 'tsk' in disappointment, the provocation was too obvious.

"—it's buried in the sand over there, I just saw it when A Yuan was flirting with the stealing cat."

Sakura's answer was full of jealousy, and I couldn't help but worry about the safety of the new couple.

In the direction Sakura mentioned, a special piece of sand bulged slightly, and it was obvious that there were a lot of things buried under the sand——

Shen Qing dug up the sand, and saw the axe, the manuscript, and the copper sword buried shallowly in it, and there was a small sign beside it that said——

'Stay strong. by production team'

This is the legendary beginner outfit, right? The copper utensils are covered with rust as if they have been soaked in seawater for decades. It can only be said that the production team is really stingy and wants to make it more difficult for players to start.

"Ayuan, I found that one, do you have anything to say?"

Sakura narrowed her eyes and looked at me like a cat waiting to be petted.

"Alright, Sakura is the best."

"I like A Yuan the most!"

After being patted on the head, Sakura let me go with satisfaction...

How much I used to hate showing affection in public. I never thought that I would be forced to do such a thing today. I could only apologize to my teammates in my heart.

"Tsk..."

Shen Qing turned her head away, as if unwilling to watch our childish interaction...

After counting, we found that there are exactly 5 copies of each equipment, corresponding to the number of players in the game, then——

"The equipment is complete, let's start the game."

After Su You finished speaking, he announced the official start of the game—I hope this time it will be smooth and there will be no accidents. With such prayers, I took the two girls on the journey...
