Chapter 265: Anomaly Numbering
Get out of the lab door.
What catches your eye is a long corridor, like a central avenue that leads in all directions, with a straight corridor flanked by numerous branch lines, from researchers in white coats to armed men in stalwart soldiers.
However, what surprised Gu Moli was the style that stood out in the entire base.
.... It doesn't seem to be very advanced.
In his cognition, a so-called empire that can observe the so-called other world, where there are obviously transcendent beings, and as a result, complete the great cause of unification in this mode that can be called hell for humans, the so-called empire must be the ultimate science fiction existence that often only appears in movies.
But in fact, judging from the attire of the few armed men who were standing aside at this time, apparently to keep an eye on themselves, it did not seem to be the case.
It's not so much science fiction in the movies as science that has taken a different path.
Look at these people, it is obviously too heavy, the dark black armor that only reveals a pair of eyes after covering the whole body, with a huge chain-bladed saw sword at the waist, and a stone with a shimmering orange light on the chest, the armor itself seems to come to life, and in a while, the nozzles on both sides of the shoulders can spew out scorching steam, only the multi-barreled machine gun behind it gives Gu Moli a sense of déjà vu.
What is this?
Terminator?
"See you for the first time? Isn't that what weapons from another world look like? ”
The voice of the blonde beauty researcher came from beside him: "Oh yes, my name is Elena, Aisya said, your name is Gu Moli, right, then I will call you by your name, these are the ones who are responsible for escorting us, after all, you are still under surveillance, please bear with me." ”
"It's okay...."Gu Moli shook his head: "It's not that my world doesn't have this kind of thing, it's just different." ”
"Oh?"
Elena raised her eyebrows in surprise, and then smiled again: "Yes, this makes me more interested in your world, but until then, we still have to concentrate on this mission, and there are some things that I have to talk to you about first, so as not to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings between you." ”
"Hmm."
Seeing Gu Moli's silent appearance, Elena didn't care, but continued: "First of all, in order to minimize the risk you take, we held a meeting here to study it for a day, and finally decided to abandon the original plan for death row prisoners and use artificial humans instead. ”
"Artificial man...."In fact, Gu Moli roughly guessed it, after all, it was impossible for a condemned prisoner to come out of a glass cabin.
"Yes." Aisya nodded: "This involves the technology of the Empire, I can't reveal too much, but please rest assured, because these androids have not yet fully generated consciousness, they are just an ownerless body, and possessing him will not have much impact on consciousness, and it is very safe." ”
"I see."
After coming to the end of the corridor, Elena, Gu Moli, and a large number of security guards finally came to a circular hall, different from the scene of people coming and going in the corridor, there were very few people in the circular hall, most of them were researchers in white coats, and they were all very busy, and several researchers were still holding their respective files, while scolding each other, as if they were arguing.
At the highest point of the rotunda, there seemed to be a huge square display screen, on which there were more than thirty pictures of different sizes and different contents, but Gu Moli looked at it at a glance, but he locked on to a picture lens located in the corner of the display screen for the first time.
It was a white chamber.
"Ah, see? That's where your body is. ”
Elena's voice came at the right time: "This is the archive, and it is also the central hall that connects all anomalous beings, and the secret room you are in is also one of them. ”
"That's it...."
Gu Moli forcibly resisted the idea of observing the hall and the picture, and retracted his gaze to look at Elena, who looked at him with a smirk.
“... What's wrong? ”
"No, just thinking, you don't seem to care much about your freedom, do you? Don't you want to see more? ”
Oops, too deliberate?
Gu Mo's centrifugal jump suddenly accelerated, but he still maintained his composure: "Aisya told me before, as long as I cooperate with your actions, I can go out sooner or later, isn't it?" And more than that, I hope you can find a way to improve my food. ”
"Haha, that's not going to work."
Elena smiled inexplicably, and then changed her words: "All in all, if we want to carry out the mission this time, we need to borrow these anomalous existences. ”
"Before I do that, I'll educate you about the important things."
"Knowledge?"
"Yes, that's the number of these anomalies."
Speaking of this, Elena's expression suddenly froze: "Since it is named an anomalous existence, it is naturally something beyond common sense that we humans cannot understand, or humanoid, or objects, or the environment, of course, it may also be a transcendent species in myths and legends." ”
"And since the Empire ruled the world a hundred years ago, the Imperial Supreme Council was established, and these anomalous beings were uniformly classified, because the mere recitation of their names was enough to attract calamity, so in the end the Council decided to use numbers."
"I'm sure you also learned your number from Althea's mouth, right?"
"999---27" Gu Moli responded: "Does this mean anything?" ”
"That's a good question."
Elena snapped her fingers, and while the two spoke, they walked to the silver platform in the center of the rotunda, and then reached out and gently brushed a protruding stone pillar on the platform, and in the next second, with a slight shaking, a black iron wall began to rise around the platform, slowly wrapping the entire platform, and also covering Gu Moli's line of sight, the faint light illuminated the scene inside the platform, so that his eyes would not be blackened, but he could not see anything else, and could only vaguely feel that the platform seemed to be moving downward.
.... Elevators?
Before he could react, Elena's voice continued:
"The first number "9" represents the classification of the anomalous existence, and your classification is an otherworldly creation, the second number "9" represents the ability of the anomalous existence, and your ability is incapable, and the third number "9" represents the hazard level of the anomalous existence, and your..."
"I see, there's no harm, right?" Gu Moli interrupted her helplessly.
Elena blinked her beautiful blue eyes, "That's right. ”
"And what about the object you're going to capture, it's called...[115---4], right? Does this number have any significance? ”
“......”
Elena glanced at Gu Moli, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she immediately replied: "[115---4] means that it is an anomalous existence that has been classified into the sequence of gods, is in charge of the authority of time and space, and may cause the death of a super-large-scale human being, and this anomaly is the fourth of its kind to be discovered. ”
"I see...."
Gu Moli showed a look of understanding, "115---4", the first number "1" represents the sequence of gods, the second number "1" represents the target's ability to master the space-time type, and the third number "5" represents that its existence is enough to kill a considerable number of humans.....
..... So fierce?
And judging from the last number "4", there may be three more fierce ones like the other party, or even more?
Something is wrong with the world, right?
But if you think about it from another angle, even if you have such an ability, you are still the target of the empire, doesn't this show that the empire is more fierce?
.... The more I think about it, the more desperate I become.
Gu Moli took a deep breath, suppressed the loss in his heart, and continued: "Speaking of which, you haven't told me the content of the task to be done this time. ”
"Althea says it has something to do with the existence of these anomalies."
"Specifically?"
"That's it."
Elena said naturally: "It's an anomaly numbered [488---13], please rest assured, we have really taken into account the limits of your ability, so this mission is not difficult, the reason why the boss chose this mission is more to let you go outside and relax." ”
"488---13, what type is it? I don't understand just the number. ”
"I'll explain when I get there."
Boom!
Elena's voice did not fall, and the long landing on the high platform finally came to an end.
................
"Report of the Personnel Involved in the Experiment"
He has briefly explained the numbering rules of the Council to [999---27], and at the same time let him witness his own body, hoping that this move will effectively ease his vigilance, and at the same time, the positioning of [488---13] has also been successful, and the anomaly capture battle will be carried out next.
Here are the unimportant appendices:
I reported researchers Edson, Pernas, and Renard in real name, and these three people openly discussed whether scrambled eggs were better or boiled eggs in the archives hall, and scolded each other loudly, seriously damaging the scientific research atmosphere in the base, and suggested that the main culprit Edson be sent to the Far North branch to grow potatoes. -------Elena
Response: Rejected.
Reason: Elena, I know you're sad about your recent breakup with Edson, but that's not a reason for you to declare a personal vendetta.
