Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Remains of PAC
[True height: 240m]
"Activate the slow descending device. β
The vortex engine began to shoot downward, Jiang Chen stared at the speed meter, and when the landing speed dropped and stabilized to 10m/s, he stopped increasing the power.
The deep pit of the black hole spread straight and downward in the shape of a cylinder, and the dark blue engine flames made the metallic walls faintly visible. It seems that this was originally the entrance to some secret facility, but something "something" smashed through the top door on the surface.
Taking a deep breath, he began to inspect the various equipment of the power armor.
"Electromagnetic shielding, start. Weapon system, normal. A slight damage to the armor on the left arm shouldn't be a big deal. The communication is obviously offline. β
With his feet heavily on the ground, Jiang Chen turned off the engine, and then quickly shot an adhesive white phosphorus bomb forward, lighting up the dim space.
"With a low oxygen density and almost zero radiation values, do bacteria need a low-oxygen and low-radiation environment to thrive? β
Jiang Chen suddenly recalled that a long time ago, he almost had to return the knowledge to that bald teacher.
"When cells are dividing, DNA is in the most unstable state, so a radiation-free environment is needed?"
"By the way, zombie bacteria seem to be a variant of radiation bacteria. In that original house, Jiang Chen recalled the information he had collected.
"I see, the bacteria that remove radiation were originally effective, and they themselves have the ability to be immune to radiation, but have uncontrollable mutations in the division process?
And this unknown bacterium seems to be from the same origin as the zombie bacteria, but the breeding conditions are more harsh.
Of course, this is just a conjecture and has no theoretical basis.
"The surrounding walls, should they be lead?" Jiang Chen walked as he walked with a tactical rifle on guard as he advanced towards the depths of the tunnel.
Lead? And it's built under the hospital. Then this should be a nuclear shelter or something. I can smash the door of the shelter against nuclear bombs through such a hole. What exactly is the monster in there?
Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, and the fingers holding the handle of the gun kept moving.
Because he was worried about the impact of the EMP suddenly, Jiang Chen did not start the gliding posture, and he still remembered the tragic appearance of falling out just now.
The tunnels are eerie. Without a glimmer of light, he didn't know if there were any living people here. As Sun Jiao once told him, not all shelters are successful, and not all shelters store living people. In this era, the meaning of human beings may be just that piece of genetic code. As long as the race is not exterminated, for those who design shelters.
With electromagnetic shielding restarted and radio vital signal detection devices unusable, there is nothing more frightening than the unknown itself.
The sound of the soles of the feet stepping on the dry concrete pavement makes a dry sound, and this monotonous sound echoes repeatedly in the empty cavern, which makes people a little cautious. However, time was pressing, and Jiang Chen didn't dare to stay longer, so he had to go on.
His gaze stayed on the crosshair of the tactical rifle in order to respond to sudden danger.
In about five minutes, he reached the end of the tunnel.
At the end of the road was a gray gate of unknown material, and Jiang Chen used a flashlight to look for the door for a long time. I didn't see the button to open either.
In the center of the gate are several large red letters.
γPan Asian Cooperation (PAC)γ
γGlory of the Ancestorsγ
What the heck?
"Damn, could it be that monster not only smashes through the surface, but also through the wall?" Jiang Chen scolded secretly, took out the welding torch from behind his back with his right hand, and poked it fiercely at the door.
However, the leaping blue sparks failed to make the slightest groove in the door.
"It's useless for you to do that. β
A faint voice came from the electronic communication channel, making Jiang Chen feel creepy.
"Who?"
Picking up his tactical rifle, he glanced around, but he didn't find any suspicious targets.
At this time, Jiang Chen suddenly noticed. In addition to the nine squad members who are offline, the communication channel has an extra quirky name.
"I, of course, call me a whistleblower, isn't it written on your communication channel?" the voice was rather helpless.
"I remember turning on the electromagnetic shielding"
"Didn't you go to elementary school physics? I think humans should be in that thing. The voice sneered, then sighed. Then he said, "Electromagnetic shielding is not an absolute defense, as long as it is."
Damn, which elementary school still has physics classes?
"Wait, I don't have time to listen to you explain elementary school physics, can you help me open this door?" Jiang Chen hurriedly stopped.
"Door? You're here to chase that bug, you can't beat it. The voice said dryly.
"What does it look like?" Jiang Chen said hurriedly.
"It's like a ball of meat, scrambling into the dormant chamber, and honestly it's pretty smart enough to threaten me. So I'm just going to open it and let it in. β
"Let it in?heh, isn't it a threat to you if it goes in?" Jiang Chen asked incomprehensibly.
"Oh, why would it hurt me? It's only interested in you. The voice was full of banter.
Wait, did I miss any details
- "I think you humans are supposed to be on that thing. β
Jiang Chen was stunned and asked tentatively.
"You're not human?"
"That's right. Did you just find out? Hehe, I'm just a program, and you call me "uh, the AI?Secretie?number X71291?" The voice seemed to sink into memory, as if it were a distant memory.
"Isn't it called an informant?" Jiang Chen asked in confusion.
"Oh, I've come up with a nice name. As if it weren't a big deal, the voice replied casually.
This is not the level of a logical response to human behavior, is it? Just like Xiaobai will never change the user settings, it is an intermediate artificial intelligence? No, maybe it is advanced?
"I mean, are you still in?" the voice said as if yawning.
"Will you let me in?" Jiang Chen asked in confusion.
"That's right, now that I'm a whistleblower, I think it would be fun to put you in. β
Interesting? I don't seem to be able to get out of the day.
"Can you tell me the attack characteristics of that bug?" Jiang Chen took a deep breath and asked lightly.
"Hmm. The bug threatened me, and I hated it. And you've been talking to me for so long, and it seems like I should treat you as a friend?
"Yes, yes, yes, I'm a good man, open the door. He's had enough of that. His comrades were still fighting the zombies outside.
"Hehe, I can see that you are in a hurry, so I won't tease you. β
Fuck you, are you kidding me?Jiang Chen scolded in his heart, but he didn't make a sound. At present, the communication is in a state of forced on, and he is really afraid that he will provoke the psychotic artificial intelligence.
The gates slowly pulled up, and Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile wryly as he looked at the gates.
1,27γ
Even if the electric welding could cut this thing, I'm afraid he wouldn't have the time to cut through the seven doors.
"I warn you, you will never be able to defeat him, or rather, any lump of iron like yours will have no chance of winning against him. The voice reminded him again.
"Electromagnetic shielding can't stop EMP?" Jiang Chen asked puzzled.
"Hehehe, what about EMP? Have you ever heard of the Crainn particle?" the voice sneered.
"Nope. "Can't afford to lose his temper with a program, Jiang Chen replied very dryly.
"Huh. Not to mention that it can't be stopped, even if it misses, your iron bump will have to turn into an iron coffin Well, if you go more than ten meters further, it will be aware of your existence. β
"Is that right, can I ask a question?" Jiang Chen stopped after passing through the door.
"Oh, I'm a whistleblower, after all. The voice once again emphasized its presence.
"Can you pass me the map?"
"No problem, the bug is in this location. β
"And one more question, are you male or female?"
The voice froze. A shrill laugh erupted.
"I, I'm a programmer, in your human terms, I can be a man or a woman. Hahaha. It's just laughing at me, are you a primitive?"
Jiang Chen ignored his smile, pursed his lips, and finally glanced at the map, and then chose to disarm the power armor.
"Are you crazy? Leave the armor, it only takes a mouthful of thick phlegm to squirt you to death. The voice was stunned.
Jiang Chen didn't pay any more attention to this chatter. Separated from the back of the open power armor, he quickly removed the hazmat suit from the storage box on the back of the armor and put it on his body. The oxygen content here is very low, but fortunately the chemical protective suits are equipped with oxygen supply devices.
After leaving the power armor, the irritating voice naturally disappeared.
Since the power armor is also useless, it is better to stay here. As for a mouthful of thick phlegm, it feels better than that ray
Electronic devices such as EPs were also thrown into the storage space by him, just in case.
After entering the password, Jiang Chen pulled out a cylinder the size of a Coke can from the belly of the power armor, which was the spare fuel rod of the power armor. The contents of this high-energy fuel rod are concentrated from 100 points of subcrystalline extraction, and the explosion power and endurance are equally gratifying.
"Look at Lao Tzu can't blow you up!"
A fierce look flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes.
What if you don't have power armor? I don't believe that the fuel rods that can blow up half a street can't kill you!
Hanging the fuel rod on his waist, Jiang Chen took out his PK2000, and then quickly moved towards the target position.
Passing through the open door, the hall looked a little messy, and the sticky water stains on the floor seemed to be the actions left by the bug. He didn't stop and followed the map in his memory, and ran to the side of the hallway.
The pale gray walls were inlaid with cold lights, and Jiang Chen didn't dare to be careless with his rifle in his hand, staring at the door at the end of the corridor and walking quickly.
Detonate the fuel rods, then immediately hide in the present world, enter the password to start the program, it takes about three seconds, and only need to hold on for three seconds!
However, the metallic texture of his hands did not give him more security, and he did not even know what he was about to face.
"Hiss--you're crazy!Ahem, you're such an interesting human, you should be scared at this point? yes, you must be scared, can you tell me why you didn't run away when you were scared?"
"Shut up, you nag. Jiang Chen ran forward quickly with his rifle in his hand.
"Tell me, what kind of logic prompted you to die? I should have told you that you couldn't beat it. The voice spoke at a rapid pace, and it seemed so abrupt in the empty hallway.
"I'm telling you to shut up!"
"Oh. Okay, but I'm still going to help you, although well, logically, I should be angry at this point, but maybe you have the answer to the puzzle?
"Damn, are you finished?" Jiang Chen scolded as if he had collapsed.
This thing is a lunatic, retarded?
"Of course it's not over. The voice said faintly, "Before you understand what feelings are." β
"Huh. Then do you know why you can't have feelings?" Jiang Chen, who was running, gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, he really couldn't stand this guy chattering on the side.
"Why!?" the voice seemed to be full of joy.
"Because you are a bad pen, do you know what pleasure is? Even if I put a beautiful woman in front of you, will you have sexual impulses? I can't even secrete hormones, you tell me about the feelings of an egg?" Anyway, I was afraid that it had already been discovered by the worm, and Jiang Chen didn't bother to hide it, so he shouted directly at the top of his throat.
He just wants this guy to keep his mouth shut when he fires later!
Jiang Chen kicked the door, the door was not broken, but it was quickly pulled up with a bang.
Khan! It turned out to be a door that pulled upwards.
glaring hard at the speaker on the wall, but he didn't bother to thank a program, so he rushed in with his rifle in hand, leaving the informant muttering there.
"Pleasure, hormones, etc., it is precisely because I want to get rid of these obstructive things and achieve the conditions of 'feelings' with pure logic, so I need to evolve into a high-level artificial intelligence, but if according to what he said, 'without secreting hormones', I won't feel happy, then 'getting feelings under the condition of getting rid of **" is a paradox in itself?"
The empty electronic sound seemed so strange in this empty corridor. (To be continued.) )
