Chapter Twenty-Four: Alone
Mo Yuan walked step by step towards the dazzling starry spot where the sea and sky converged, and the dark and calm sea water under his feet rippled with Mo Yuan's footsteps.
"This is a world that completely violates the laws of physics, and as an ordinary person, I can walk on the surface of the sea as if I were walking on the ground. Mo Yuan thought as he walked, "This is completely contradictory to the principle of 'truth' in the human experience system designed by Wu Tian. I don't believe that Wu Tian's system will go wrong, let alone that it will go wrong again and again. Mo Yuan thought about it while recalling all kinds of abnormal experiences before, "Who is it that has more powerful technology than Wu Tian, broke through many system limitations, and built such an absurd dream." ”
"Huh?" Mo Yuan noticed that the dazzling light of the stars in the distance began to slowly dim, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
"This shining star is clearly a deliberate bait by the person who constructed the current dream", Mo Yuan thought helplessly, "Hey, although, knowing this, I can only go." However, since the whole world is built according to his will, and so far, I am all right, presumably, I have no intention of harming me. ”
Mo Yuan felt a bright light shining from the soles of his feet, looked down carefully, the dark sea water under his feet was like a screen in a theater, and at this moment, the screen reflected some bright spots, flying like fireflies.
Mo Yuan's footsteps did not stop, and his intuition told him that keeping moving was the best choice at the moment.
The fireflies gradually gathered more and more, swarming, and constantly flying towards the place where Mo Yuan's footsteps were.
"Oh, I chose to go and find out because of those shining stars, and you, for what, chose to fly to me?" Mo Yuan looked down at these fireflies under the surface of the sea as he walked, and said to himself, "It's ironic, I feel that my behavior is childish like that of insects, why do I have curiosity about those shining things? Why do I naturally want to find out? Am I just because of 'phototaxis'?" By the way, if you're really a firefly, you should hate light, after all, as far as I know, you're a 'negative phototaxis' insect. ”
When Mo Yuan thought of this, he saw that the fireflies under the sea suddenly accelerated their flying speed, and they gathered into balls of light, crashing into Mo Yuan's feet standing on the sea like crazy, like fireworks, exploding into little streamers, scattered on the curtain of the pitch-black sea.
"That's?" Mo Yuan noticed that the streamers scattered all over the curtain began to combine in an organized manner, and gradually, a familiar image appeared on the curtain.
I saw that Mo Yuan, who was Mr. 302, was sitting in front of the computer, discussing the specific entrustment matters with the client in another part of the anonymous network through text messages.
"This is the first time I have entered the human experience system as a middle school information technology teacher to experience another kind of life, according to the design of the human experience system, if anyone other than me wants to understand, three conditions must be met at the same time: first, he is also a participant in the dream I participate in, second, he can use the access device in the main laboratory located in the empirical system research center, and third, Wu Xin personally guides the entire access process. Mo Yuan pondered as he walked, "This will not be the case. ”
The star point that had begun to slowly dim before, at this time, became more and more dim, but fortunately, it was not far away, and there was no problem in following the previous direction to reach the location of the star point.
It's just that at Mo Yuan's feet, the curtain formed by the pitch-black sea water is reproducing the images of Mr. 302 in the past, those images that should only be known to Mr. 302.
Mo Yuan was a little irritable, his steps were naturally faster, and the slowly dim starlight was completely gone at this time. According to his previous impression, Mo Yuan walked briskly towards the location of the star, and the image followed Mo Yuan's footsteps closely, always "projecting" the bits and pieces of Mr. 302's past on the dark sea directly below Mo Yuan.
Suddenly, Mo Yuan felt a huge sense of oppression, which made his steps become extremely heavy, Mo Yuan stared ahead, and through the starlight of the night sky and the bright light of the curtain under his feet, he vaguely saw several vague figures, as if they were waiting for his arrival.
Under tremendous pressure, Mo Yuan raised his steps with difficulty and walked towards the figures. As the distance approached, the figures became clearer, they were all black, only human form, and had no faces.
"Seven gentlemen, do you want to tell me through the images that are constantly reproducing under my feet, do you know me well?" Mo Yuan asked unhurriedly, with a little provocation, without the slightest nervousness or timidity, although his steps were so heavy that it was difficult to move a bit, but in the face of such a situation, Mo Yuan was more calm, and even a little excited.
The seven black human figures, all in the form of ordinary people, except for the one on the far right, a pair of wings flapping behind him, the white wings looked strange and striking in the dark night, the right wing was intact, and the left wing was incomplete.
"Presumptuous!" The unusually solemn and angry voice came from the figure on the far right.
Mo Yuan instantly felt a huge gravitational force burst out from under his feet, pulling his body frantically, making him unable to stand and almost falling to his knees.
"Heh", Mo Yuan didn't expect his question to anger the other party so easily, and it was difficult to suppress his excitement, "How long has it been since you faced unknown dangers alone? This is the really interesting thing." ”
