506 Jane's Choice
The vampire's miserable howls echoed in the bedroom, and the dark figure of the humanoid figure struggled incessantly, but could not break free from the shackles of the silver weapon.
The "vanguard" from the superpower forces of the former Soviet Union is nothing more than a low-level vampire. The reason why they can run rampant on the battlefield is only because most modern soldiers are not prepared with weapons that can fight vampires.
"Ahh
The pioneer twisted his atomized limbs in vain, looking like an octopus being grilled on the iron plate, listening to his piercing scream, Lin Chi complained, "Can you kill him quickly?" ”
"Good good ......"
The woman in black said as she pulled out a silver sword from her uniform and stabbed it into the vampire's chest. The poor vanguard turned into a blur of black mist, and his body disappeared into the scorching air like evaporating water vapor.
"Useless garbage." The woman in black shook her head contemptuously, and then as if she sensed something, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared.
"There's trouble." She whispered.
"What's wrong?" Lin Chi asked.
"The sedatives are going to be used for real, and they have sent out elite troops." Jen, who was in her mature form, turned around and looked back at the smoke-blackened living room, the expression on her face becoming solemn.
She took a deep breath and spoke, "These enemies are beyond your reach. ”
"No way, I'm pretty weak here." Lin Chi sighed and asked, "So what are you going to do?" ”
"They're hell-bent on destroying this space." The woman in black clenched her fists: "It seems that we can only give up here, as long as we can make the 'me' lying in the ward give up this space, this place will collapse immediately, but our consciousness will remain." You have to find a way to wake her up in order to end this endless war. ”
"How can I wake her up?" Lin Chi narrowed his eyes.
"Need a pill......" The voice of the woman in black was urgent: "Have you found the pill?" ”
"You mean that?" Lin Chi took out the medicine bottle from his pocket and shook it in front of the other party's eyes.
"That's right...... This is a placebo. Jane, who was in her mature form, nodded immediately.
"You're saying it's actually useless?" Lin Chi looked at the medicine bottle in his hand.
- The so-called placebo effect refers to the phenomenon in which patients receive ineffective treatments, but "expect" or "believe" that the treatment will work, and the patient's symptoms are relieved.
For example, someone has insomnia all year round, and after finding a doctor friend and taking some sleeping pills, the condition of insomnia has improved significantly, but in fact he is not really taking sleeping pills, just ordinary vitamin C.
The "placebo effect" is actually a psychological implication that as long as patients believe that their condition can be improved by a placebo, there is a real possibility that the condition will be improved, and there have even been people who have survived a deadly infectious disease with a placebo.
However, in this virtual space of consciousness, the effect of placebo is clearly different.
- If "Jane" lying in the underground ward is the subject of consciousness, this space was created by her at all, and if she can be convinced that this pill can take effect, she can undoubtedly leave this world directly!
"I'll give it a try." Lin Chi said and turned around and walked towards the door.
As he entered the hallway, he immediately noticed several shadowy black shadows in the clearing in front of him. Twisted and uncertain, it doesn't look like a normal enemy.
"I'll go down first, good luck." He said.
"I've always had good luck...... "The woman in black rubbed her hands and strode out of the apartment building into the burning clearing.
Facing the dark shadows that were surging towards her, she pulled out a silver revolver from under her uniform, and stood in place with a long roar, like an impregnable fortress:
"Come on!"
Boom!
When Lin Chi returned to the second basement floor, a dull crashing sound erupted from the apartment building above. It seems that Jane, who stayed on it in the "Imperial Sister Form", should have already started fighting the enemy.
He made his way to the round metal door of the vault, which had been open before, but was now closed. So he stood in front of the camera in the corner, waved his hand and shouted, "Are you there?" ”
Five seconds later, the familiar weak female voice finally sounded from the speaker: "You just ...... Where have you been......"
"I'm right up there, don't you see?" Lin Chi pursed his lips.
"The cameras upstairs have all been blown up,......" Jen sighed a little frustrated, then asked, "Are all the enemies up there dead?" ”
"Pretty much." Lin Chi said and returned to the metal door, clenching the small medicine bottle in his hand:
"Open the door, I have something important to say to you."
With a dull rumble, the round metal door opened back again. Lin Chi strode into the narrow metal passage and lowered his head through the path that shone with blue light.
In fact, he has already thought about the use of the bottle of "placebo" in his hand, so what he has to do now is to see if his statement can fool the subjective consciousness lying on the hospital bed!
Soon, Lin Chi returned to the ward where Jane was, stood beside the girl's bedside, stared down at the miserable body, and went straight to the point:
"Do you want to leave this virtual space?" He asked.
"Yes!" Jane's voice did not hesitate, without the slightest confusion: "I've had enough of this body. ”
"Okay then." Lin Chi said and stretched out his right hand and pressed it on the transparent breathing mask on the girl's mummified head.
"I found the key prop to get out of this world." Lin Chi said seriously.
"I'm listening......" Jane whispered faintly through the speaker.
- Now it's the key.
Facing the girl who was fixed on the hospital bed and couldn't move, but was full of expectations for leaving this virtual space, Lin Chi opened the medicine bottle in his hand, took out two pills, one red and one blue, and put them in the palm of his hand, and held them up in front of the camera:
"There are two pills here, as long as you take the blue pills, you will forget all your doubts, forget everything I said, and even forget the existence of me as a person, and continue to live in this world."
Speaking of this, Lin Chi's voice suddenly became low, and it kept echoing in the silent ward:
"And the red pill can make you leave here and enter the unknown 'new world'. Now, please tell me your options. ”
After speaking, there was a deathly silence in the ward.
Although the question was raised, Lin Chi's face already showed an imperceptible smile. Because he knows very well what the girl will choose:
"Please give me the red pills."
Jane's voice was firm, completely devoid of the previous doubts: "I have ...... I don't want to go on like this. ”
"That world may not be a reality, it may be dangerous, and you may not even be in a better position there, are you sure?" Lin Chi repeated.
"I'm pretty sure." Jane replied without hesitation.
"Ha ......"
Lin Chi laughed, took off Jane's breathing mask, and ripped off the bandages on her face, revealing her pale and emaciated jaw.
"So, get ready to enter another world."
While speaking, Lin Chi threw away the blue pill in his hand and stuffed the red pill between the girl's dry lips.
