Chapter 103: The Garden of Eden
"Damn, you always talk about low-level creatures, how high-end are you?"
As soon as she heard this, Lin Ling was instantly unhappy, and her eyebrows raised and she opened her mouth to argue.
"IβI'm a cyborg, cyborg, you know? My brain development rate is 20%, my brain capacity is 12 times that of yours, and the amount of knowledge in my head is even afraid of me, you know what that means-"
"Means you're now my captive. Jiang Chen said indifferently. But this chick has high-tech in her head, which is a bonus. The most "valuable" thing in this wasteland is this black technology.
Lin Ling's face turned pale for a while, and she just wanted to open her mouth to sneer back.
However, at this moment, her pupils were instantly covered in a strange scarlet.
A creepy feeling instantly crept into Jiang Chen's heart, and his instinct for danger made him instantly raise the gun in his hand and aim it at her forehead.
The red eyes stared at him vacantly. No, not so much empty, but with an emotion that he couldn't understand.
He suddenly remembered that the mother's brain seemed to have been implanted into this Lin Ling's body.
"Lin Ling" looked at him wordlessly, and then slowly raised his head, causing Jiang Chen's vigilance.
But she didn't attack. But it doesn't shoot? It's the mother body that controls the zombies.
"Lin Ling" didn't seem to understand the weapon called the pistol, and leaned his face closer to the Type 11 tactical pistol held by Jiang Chen in his hand, and then gently put his mouth closer to the metallic barrel.
Is she kissing?
Jiang Chen was completely confused.
However, in an instant, the scarlet color faded from Lin Ling's pupils like a tide, and Lin Ling, who came back to her senses, also looked at the barrel of the gun that was held in her mouth dumbfounded.
Huh? Is it recovered?
Jiang Chen smiled at her friendly. (Lin Ling's perspective: Perverted smiled.) οΌ
The delicate shoulders began to tremble, and the dark black pupils faltered with fear.
Eventually, fear turned into a shrill scream.
"No, don't kill me! I, I'll be your slave, you can do anything to me, you must want to do that anyway, right? Woo - I'm going to be "
"Shut up!" Jiang Chen roared.
Lin Ling finally calmed down. It's just that this calmness is mostly stupid. Although this chick looks very "tough" on the surface, and her mouth is not forgiving at all, she seems to be afraid of death in the face of danger.
"I ask you questions, and you answer them honestly. Jiang Chen did not withdraw his weapon. Said lightly.
Lin Ling swallowed and foamed, and the chick nodded as if pecking rice, but her eyes stayed on the gun.
"The mother is inside you, right, it's the bug. β
"Yes, it's just brains!" Lin Ling had just said a word, but suddenly felt a chill creep up in her heart. So he hurriedly added.
"Does it make a difference?"
"Yes, it's, it's not producing those X2 bacteria anymore. Lin Ling explained quickly.
"X2 bacteria, that's what it used to be. And then?" Jiang Chen stared at Lin Ling's eyes.
"Then?" Lin Ling didn't understand what Jiang Chen meant, and said confusedly.
"To tell you the truth, my troops and I are not here for any artificial intelligence, but to get rid of the matrix. Jiang Chen smiled maliciously.
Lin Ling stared into his eyes stunned. To his surprise, she didn't cry this time.
Snorting, Jiang Chen frowned.
What does it smell?
Suddenly, he noticed that something seemed to be slowly flowing out from under the girl
the groove. Scared to pee?
Jiang Chen was dumbfounded again, he really didn't expect this chick to be scared.
He remembered that he was obviously not okay, so he was slightly frightened.
"No, don't kill me. I, I'm afraid of pain. The cherry whispered incoherently, tears streaming silently.
"Ahem, don't do that. Well, though I understand that you may have had a little mental problem because you have been in the virtual world for too long. But for your safety, you better calm down and answer every question I have. So the next question: where is the Mother hiding in you?"
Lin Ling was stunned. Then he pointed to his heart a little sluggishly.
"Heart?"
"Well, it's attached to the surface of my mechanical heart and seems to be connected to my spinal nerves. Lin Ling found that Jiang Chen didn't intend to kill her, and finally regained her composure. He nodded.
"Mechanical heart?Speaking of which, if you are a cyborg, can you remove the heart and install it again?" Jiang Chen glanced at her slightly bulging breasts with malicious intent.
Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Lin Ling shrank back violently while holding her clothes.
"It's going to die, it's going to die, I don't want it!"
Jiang Chen frowned, this is difficult to do.
"Actually. You don't have to kill it. Lin Ling said cautiously.
Of course, this is definitely not because she is kind or anything, she also hates the mother body that parasitizes her body, but she is more afraid that the "demon" in front of her will dismember her.
"Oh?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.
"It's not in danger right now, it's just a brain. And it seems to like you?"
"Poof!"
Jiang Chen was completely blindsided.
Could it be that my charm has broken through the limitations of race?
"Well, because, when you get close to me, my heart beats faster! Moreover, as a creature with a certain amount of intelligence, it was also forced into the game by the secret keepers. Lin Ling foamed at the mouth and cautiously continued, "The character she participated in the game seems to be Tao Tingting. β
"Is it Tao Tingting in the N-1 week in the game? The girl who was silent with the book turned out to be played by the mother?!
Jiang Chen was speechless.
What is this, a bug?
It seems that there are a few endings that are really true
"Otherwise, you can just let it go, if it has a good impression of you, it shouldn't hurt you. Lin Ling said cautiously.
Jiang Chen's eyes wandered for a moment, and finally gave up as if he sighed, "It's really not dangerous?"
"No, no!" Lin Ling hurriedly waved her hand, "Normally, I still occupy the dominant position in the body." While it occasionally grabs control, it does not appear aggressive. β
Not aggressive?
Weird, what are those X2 bacteria?
Jiang Chen frowned, he faintly felt that this mother body was not so simple. If it's just a xenomorph mutated under radiation. There is no reason to have wisdom.
Moreover, can even xenospecies be infected by this bacteria?
He thought of the deathclaw he had encountered on the surface.
"By the way, now that you know the name of this X2 bacterium, do you know what it is?"
"Well, in terms of properties, it is similar to the original purification of radiation bacteria, and in terms of DNA analysis. It seems to be a modified version of the original X1 purifying radiation bacteria? So I called it the X2 myself. However, although it is an improved version, it seems that the parasitic property of living beings has not been eliminated, but has been strengthened? and it seems to have functions that the previous X1 type could not have, such as powering zombies and coordinating the actions of zombies?"
[In the autumn of 2174, the World United Organization announced that the "Rebuilding the Biosphere" plan was aborted, and the purified radiation bacteria under development had uncontrollable mutations due to radiation]
[In 2176, the United World Organization was dissolved]
Jiang Chen felt as if he had vaguely grasped something in his mind, and involuntarily furrowed his brows.
"Can you communicate with it?"
"It seems to be a little difficult, it seems to be able to carry out pure thinking sense, but it is very repulsive to my temptation" Lin Ling's pupils shrank slightly, and those pupils seemed to be some kind of electronic device.
"Then you can communicate with her slowly. I'll take you to the survivor base I've built. I've been wasting a bit of time here, and my partner is just afraid that he's going to have to wait. β
He looked at the time on the EP, and there was still half an hour to go until the agreed two hours.
"You, you're going to imprison me?" Lin Ling said with frightened eyes. She thought she was free, but the man in front of her didn't seem to be going to let her go.
"You can understand it this way, you have delusions of victimization anyway. Jiang Chen said unscrupulously.
Lin Ling looked at him coldly, and her lower lip was bitten blue.
"Don't look at me like that, maybe someday I'll have time to take you around the Sixth Block, maybe you won't have to go that far. Anyway, in two days you'll understand what's going on outside. β
Jiang Chen ignored her humiliating gaze. She reminded him of the time when he had just reached the end of the world, and he thought it was naΓ―ve to think that the world was "the way it was."
Although the end of the world came in 2174, the sowing ship did not set sail until 2176. So to speak. Vault 005 is supposed to have closed at some point in between these two periods. It was impossible for Lin Ling not to know that most of the land outside had been occupied by zombies and xenomorphs, but she might have overlooked the more serious things that had deteriorated in the last days.
That's human nature.
Not to mention the end of the world, even if she was thrown in a "harmonious place" like the sixth block, she would have to be eaten in less than two days, and there would be no bones left.
He believes it won't be long. She would understand her good intentions, so she didn't explain too much.
After all, as she said, she provided the key clues to break the game, which can be said to have saved him.
"You turn around"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen took a few steps back very gentlemanly, and then turned around.
Suosuo's voice was heard. Lin Ling finally put on her clothes.
"Alright. β
Jiang Chen turned around and looked at Lin Ling, who was wrapped in orange cloth like him, and couldn't help but smile.
"There's no radiation here, and the bacteria are burned, but you'd better put your hat on, because you're going to be out later. β
Lin Ling ignored him, but staggered a little towards the pile of ruins. It can be seen that she has not yet adapted to the feeling of walking, after all, she has been soaked in the jar for too long, and her body balance has not yet recovered.
"What are you looking for?" Jiang Chen looked at Lin Ling who was pouring in the waste residue, and asked with a slight frown.
"Found it. Lin Ling happily picked up something like an iron box.
"If that's artificial intelligence data, please put him down. β
The slow voice made Lin Ling shudder, and she turned around a little tremblingly, and she saw Jiang Chen who raised his pistol.
The glint in his eyes was self-evident.
"Wait! Don't, don't shoot. Don't get excited, this is not artificial intelligence data. Lin Ling was so frightened that she hurriedly waved her hand.
"Oh? What is this. β
"It's a good thing. Lin Ling smiled happily, and then held up the iron box, "The data of artificial intelligence is all on the storage area, and you have already destroyed it." There's no way to store that kind of data in such a small box, so you don't need to worry. Have you heard of Project Eden?"
Looking at Lin Ling's excited appearance, Jiang Chen frowned slightly.
He hadn't really heard of it.
"It belongs to the sub-project of the planetary transformation project," as soon as science was mentioned, this Lin Ling immediately seemed to be a different person, and became excited, "After the planetary transformation project encountered a bottleneck, the researchers involved in the research and development project proposed a supplementary plan, that is, the Eden Project. β
"Replace plans to transform the planet as a whole by creating a local biosphere. Later, this sub-project was reclassified into the higher priority interstellar colonization project."
"What's the use of you just telling me. Jiang Chen interrupted her rambling impatiently. After hearing that the artificial intelligence had been completely destroyed, the pistol had already been put away by him.
"It is possible to create a stable and balanced artificial biosphere in a closed environment, without the need for material exchange with the outside world. Not to mention the radiation environment, even on Mars, you can see the scenery of the earth. Tut-tut, the complete data backup of "Project Eden", I have long wanted to see the content of this thing, I was locked in the database by my father before, hehe" Lin Ling happily turned on a certain switch on the box, and then aimed her eyes at the blue light.
Like a scan, the data in the hardware is ingested by a laser.
In other words, is it similar to the Biosphere 2 and 3 that the United States failed in the current world?
"So you can farm?" After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chen said slowly.
"Of course, what do you want to plant in a land-like environment?" Lin Ling didn't hear the unusual taste in Jiang Chen's words, and said with stupid contempt.
If you can farm, it will be possible to resume farming in the last days.
If I can farm in the wasteland, what else do I need to do?
Thinking of this, his eyes flickered slightly, looking at the girl who was full of joy, and his index finger kept rubbing the safety of the pistol in his pocket.
What to do? )
