194: Chapter 194 This map actually passed censorship?!
[Welcome to the New Happy Pure Land.]
[This place is a perfect paradise constructed by imitating the offshore oil rig base, 'SE.RA.PH'.]
[All of you listening to this broadcast are the incredibly lucky 128 Masters chosen by the system.]
Hearing the familiar term "128 Masters," PD shivered violently.
"What the hell?! Did I load the wrong mode? Is the battle royale not over yet?!"
Before he could react, the mechanical female voice continued to coldly read out the rules:
[On this stage of the Holy Grail War, please slaughter each other to your heart's content.]
[By the way, there is no exit to this paradise.]
[Here, you have only two choices—kill, or be killed.]
This formula, so familiar it triggered his PTSD, made PD feel terrible.
"No, wait! I just finished a 128-person elimination match, so why, after going underwater, do I have to fight a Holy Grail War battle royale again?!"
PD wanted to cry but had no tears, "And this time, I don't even have any Mana Crystals to pull cards!"
Just as PD and the viewers in the livestream were left confused by the sudden broadcast.
"Snap!"
A crisp sound of snapping fingers abruptly interrupted the stiff mechanical broadcast.
Immediately after, the cheerful exclusive BGM of 《BB Channel》 echoed from the tactical communicator on PD's wrist!
"Oh my, what a dreadfully boring opening line."
Accompanied by a flash of pink garbled code on the communicator screen, a purple-haired girl wearing a black sailor uniform poked her head out from the small screen.
She held a small pointer in her hand, a signature mischievous smile playing on her lips, looking teasingly through the screen at the bewildered PD.
"Koha~☆! We meet again, you poor little piggy Senpai!"
"What 128-person slaughter, what Holy Grail War—those are all outdated scripts from the old era."
BB tapped the screen lightly with her pointer, her tone full of the arrogance of someone who held everything in the palm of her hand.
"Right now, this is my—the Moon Cell's high-level AI, BB-chan's—Absolute Territory!"
"This deep-sea amusement park called SE.RA.PH is a private game board I built specifically to toy with you... oh, no, I mean, to test you!"
Hearing this, PD and the viewers finally became completely convinced.
This seemingly grand "Deep Sea Holy Grail War" was nothing more than a playground for this demonic junior to amuse herself!
She was the absolute mastermind behind all this chaos!
"You crazy girl!"
PD glared at the communicator, "Where exactly did you take my Servant?! Also, aren't you in the virtual network of the Moon Cell? How did you end up in a trench on Earth?!"
"What an inflexible old human you are."
BB covered her mouth and giggled, strings of profound blue code flashing in her eyes.
"Take a good look around you, Senpai."
"This is indeed that oil rig base 'SE.RA.PH' that I pulled into the future."
"But it is no longer just a pile of boring scrap metal. I have completely 'digitized' the entire oil rig base!"
BB spread her arms, showcasing her great masterpiece.
"The interior of the oil rig has now been completely reconstructed by me in the form of 'Pseudo-Spiritrons'!"
"Because of this, as a pure information lifeform, I can directly interact with humans, who are organic organisms, in the deep sea of this physical world!"
"The boundary between virtual and reality has been perfectly broken by me!"
Hearing this explanation, the lore experts in the livestream instantly gasped.
"Holy crap! You used virtual data and Pseudo-Spiritrons to directly overwrite and reconstruct a real physical building?!"
"This is a freaking miracle! It's equivalent to forcing a materialized metaverse into the real world?!"
Amidst BB's wicked laughter, PD swallowed hard, forcing himself to calm down.
"Even if you transformed this place into a computer space..."
PD looked down and operated his wrist tactical terminal a few times, trying to pull up the terrain map of the current area, "Then what is up with this hellish map structure?!"
Accompanying the terminal's scan, a massive, incomplete 3D map slowly unfolded before PD's retinas.
At first, PD only felt that the map's routes were absurdly twisted.
But when he kept zooming out the map's scale to overlook the entire macro-outline, the hairs all over his body instantly stood on end!
Those rolling mountain ranges, deep ravines, and those cyber-ruins forcibly stitched together...
Their overall macro-outline was clearly that of an incredibly massive woman's body lying face up in the deep sea!
Even certain hidden undulations and curves were lifelike!
"What the f*ck?! Why is this map... shaped like a woman?!"
PD pointed at the holographic map, his voice trembling, "Old Thief Gu, can your game even pass censorship with a map like this?!"
The viewers in the livestream were also stunned:
"What the hell, a woman's body! This terrain map is way too sinister!"
"Cthulhu plus cyberpunk plus megalophobia... I'm getting goosebumps just looking at it!"
Hearing PD's exclamation, BB inside the communicator screen lightly rested her chin on her pointer, a flicker of deep and dangerous darkness flashing in her eyes.
"Oh my, you noticed it so quickly? Senpai's observational skills are unexpectedly good."
She did not deny it, but instead revealed a mischievous and mysterious smile.
"This is a perfect vessel necessary to nurture a certain 'supreme pleasure' in this cold deep sea."
"As for who she really is... hehe, if you, little piggy Senpai, can manage to survive and reach the deepest part of this 'body,' perhaps you will be able to witness that answer with your own eyes~☆"
"Well then, I hope you have fun in my paradise~"
"Snap!" The communicator screen went black instantly.
PD swallowed hard and finally had time to turn his head and carefully examine this "Deep Sea Computer Paradise" he was currently in.
At first glance, shock and eeriness washed over him like a tide.
He was currently standing in a metal corridor that seemed to have originally belonged to the oil rig base.
But this corridor presented a hair-raising sense of distortion.
In the metal pipes on the walls, it was no longer oil flowing, but blindingly bright blue high-voltage data streams.
And from the gaps in the damaged steel, large patches of eerie red-black matter, resembling human flesh tissue, were growing, and even pulsating slightly!
Metal and flesh, reality and data—here, they had been crudely and wildly stitched together!
Walking to the giant floor-to-ceiling glass at the end of the corridor, PD looked out, his pupils constricting violently.
Outside the glass was the bottomless, suffocating Mariana Trench.
In the pitch-black deep sea, one could faintly see various massive cyber-architectural ruins, suspended in the seawater upside down, in a posture unconstrained by physical laws.
PD, having lost all protection from his strong allies and left all alone.
Feeling the eeriness of this female-body labyrinth and the terrifying water pressure outside the glass capable of crushing steel, he hugged himself, wanting to cry but having no tears.
