Chapter 4: The Plot Unfolds (Part II)
The most proficient computer among the mercenaries is named Kaplan, he directly opened the three laptops, from the eyes of Zheng Zha and others, he played with computers at an absolute first-class level, his hands crackled and kept pressing on the three computers, but a few minutes passed, and the door to the location of the central computer was still tightly closed.
Another female mercenary couldn't help but ask, "Why does it take so much time?" β
Kaplan said without looking back: "The Flame Empress is an intelligent computer, its defense system is very complete, if it can easily break through its firewall, then it will not be used as the main computer of the laboratory......"
As he spoke, there was a soft sound, and the tightly closed door finally opened slowly, and Matthew Addison nodded and said, "Pack things up!" After speaking, he turned around and looked at Zheng Zhe and the others.
"You stay here."
Behind the gate is a passage more than ten meters long, but the two sides of the passage are full of glass walls, which are completely different from the steel walls outside the gate.
Matthew Addison walked inward on his own, he walked very carefully, every step was careful enough, even so, when he reached the middle of the passage, he was still shocked, because the glass walls around him lit up violently, and this abrupt feeling was enough to scare an ordinary person into weakness.
Kaplan's voice came out of the interlocutor and said, "Don't worry, it's just an automatic sensor light, nothing to worry about." β
(It's clearly a laser for an automatic defense system, what an automatic sensor lamp, there's nothing to worry about...... οΌ
Zheng Zhe secretly thought in his heart, he suddenly wanted to say something, then a small hand grabbed him, and when he turned his head, he saw Zhan Lan standing beside him and shaking his head gently. Wang Yang was almost speechless: Zhan MM, at this time, you are still in the mood to observe others, you really don't take bean bags as dry food, don't take the village chief as a cadre, your feelings are so rich, you can't find inspiration in reality? Could it be that writers uphold the belief that "life is precious, and love is more valuable"? It seems that Z Big also realized that this was a BUG, and later hit a boyfriend who sent a patch that was not good for kindness, right?
Matthew Addison had already placed the transmitter, a cell phone-like device, just put it on the door's sensor, Kaplan suddenly pressed something on the keyboard, and after a while, there was a soft sound, and the door to the central computer finally began to open slowly.
Matthew Addison exhaled, and he beckoned to the crowd outside the passageway, "Okay, bring something here." β
Alice suddenly asked, "What is it?" What is that? β
Kaplan, who was closest to her, said, "This is the device that can shut down the Flame Empress, it can emit a strong current, mess up the console and make it restart ......"
At this time, the mercenary with the instrument was already about to walk into the passage, and Zheng Zha finally couldn't help but say loudly: "Wait, wait, don't you think it's a little weird?" This can only be a computer is too useless, so let you restart it, I don't think it's going to be that simple, there may be something strange in this passage. β
The mercenaries suddenly stopped, everyone looked at him strangely, Zhan Lan let go of his hand with a sigh, and left him far away to stand beside the heroine Alice.
Matthew Addison walked over from the passage, he looked at Zheng Zha silently, and after a long time, he finally said, "Okay, you, you, and you also come in with us." He pointed his finger at Zheng Zha, Wang Yang and the middle-aged man Mu Gang.
Zheng Zhe and Mu Gang's hands and feet were suddenly cold, anyone who has watched this movie knows that this passage is a death trap, as long as anyone enters it, they will definitely die, even the best mercenary captain died under the laser, and he died extremely miserably, he was divided into countless small pieces of meat by the laser.
Zheng Zha finally knew why Zhang Jie showed such a gaze, yes, he couldn't help but want to change the plot, but the inertia of the plot itself cannot be changed, even if it changes because of this, the 'main god' may be several times more difficult, just like now.
Mu Gang suddenly hugged his head and shouted, "No, I don't want to, I don't want to go in!" Before Zheng Zha and the others came to their senses, the mercenaries had already pulled out their guns and shot him away, and when he landed, he had already turned into a corpse covered in bullet holes.
"Wow!"
Zheng Zha and Li Xiaoyi spit out violently, and a life was beaten into a corpse in front of them, and Zheng Zhe's heart was particularly uncomfortable, because this person basically died in his meddling.
Matthew Addison looked at him coldly and said, "I was suspicious of you from the beginning, although your identity is registered on the company's information, but you don't look like a company security guard at all, and now you still plan to prevent us from restarting the Flame Empress?" Okay, Zheng Zha, Wang Yang, come in with us. β
Zheng Zhe was cold, and he still felt sick to his stomach when he vomited, but Matthew Addison was not polite at all, pulling him and the rest of the mercenaries to walk inside.
Wang Yang suddenly said: "Captain Addison, I think his words are reasonable, you should seriously consider it." β
In fact, before this moment, Wang Yang had also hesitated, after all, there are too many ways for Infinite Doujin to pass, pretending to be an investigator of the umbrella company, injuring himself, and opening the vent, all of which are feasible. However, Wang Yang did things, unless he had to, he did not think about success, and he thought about defeat first; The criterion for verifying the quality of a method is not only to ensure the reliability of the pass, but also the cost of failure; If you can afford to pay the price, even if the chance of passing the level is not high, you can consider it, otherwise you must give up. Pretending to be an investigator is the most time-saving and labor-saving, but what if Matthew Addison has a way to verify it? Thinking about the mercenaries' guidelines for dealing with the enemy in the course of their missions, Wang Yang still gave up. Self-harm? Please, do you think the mercenary medic is the barefoot doctor of the township clinic? When people take a look at any wound, their hearts are like a mirror, unless your level of injury is higher than hers, and when the time comes, you will be caught and appear, and we can't afford to lose that person (don't think that the author is messing around, friends who have learned about forensics understand this truth). And Wang Yang has an intuition, since the purpose of the main god is to make people break through and evolve in extreme fear, this method of exploiting the loopholes in the plot is better to use less, otherwise even if you pass safely this time, the next main god will definitely make up for it, you know, although artificial intelligence is not really intelligent, it is by no means an idiot.
As soon as Wang Yang's words fell, the muzzles of all the mercenaries pointed at the same time, and Wang Yang raised his hands without changing his face, and his eyes only looked at Matthew Addison.
Without waiting for Matthew Addison to speak, Wang Yang preemptively said, "Okay, I'll go in with you, but I want to ask Captain Addison" He pointed to the others who had removed Zhang Jie and himself, "Do they have the ability to threaten you and the team?" β
Matthew Addison frowned and said, "What do you want to say?" β
Wang Yang looked at him steadily, and said, "I believe that Captain Addison is the best mercenary, so didn't your intuition remind you of anything?" β
Intuition, yes, a good mercenary must be sharpened in blood and fire, and facing death will hone his beast-like instincts, making him predict danger in advance, as a policeman, Wang Yang understands this truth better than anyone else. And he was convinced that Matthew Addison could be hired by the umbrella company that manipulated the American economy, and he must have had that instinct.
Matthew Addison looked at Wang Yang for a while and asked, "So what about your opinion?" β
Wang Yang said: "I, Zheng Zhe and you will enter together, and the other team members will serve as the second echelon." β
Zheng Zhe suddenly lowered his face, he originally expected Wang Yang to persuade Matthew Addison, at least don't pull himself, but he didn't expect Wang Yang to go around in a big circle, and he was still in a catastrophe. But Wang Yang also didn't leave himself out, his lips moved, but he still didn't say anything.
Does Wang Yang really dare to brave the laser channel? Of course not, although Wang Yang is ready to face death after figuring it out on the train, not being afraid of death does not mean that he does not want to live. Wang Yang doesn't think that in the infinite terror, Zheng Zha really has the ability to escape this level, if you want to find the reason, Wang Yang would rather believe that the protagonist is lucky to shelter, you know, the laser channel is not a fixed program, but a killer weapon manipulated by the artificial intelligence flame queen, after the first round, it will change direction according to the reaction of the mercenaries, and the third round even came to the "Skynet Restoration", this kind of mermaid situation can escape from death is a miracle. So Wang Yang silently thought in his heart: "Zheng Zha, Zheng Dada, Boss Zheng, my brother will have to mix with you in the future, without the help of your luck, I really don't have confidence, it's a big deal to find more side plots for you in the future, I'm sorry this time." β
Matthew Addison looked at Wang Yang and Zheng Zha, and tilted his head towards the laser channel: "Then what are we waiting for?" β
As soon as the three of them walked into the passage, just like what happened in the movie, the doors on both sides closed at the same time, Matthew Addison couldn't care about Zheng Zhe and Wang Yang anymore, he was holding a firearm and watching carefully, and at the same time he also asked into the interlocutor: "Kaplan?" β
Kaplan said urgently: "Some kind of dormant defense, once too many people pass through the gate, then it will be activated after entering the door." β
Matthew Addison said, "Then let it continue to sleep!" β
Kaplan was already sweating with anxiety, and he kept pressing the keyboard with both hands, and replied, "I'm trying!" β
Matthew Addison said helplessly to Wang Yang and Zheng Zha: "Stay where you are and don't move." β
Zheng Zhe was cold when he heard this, he knew that the plot had already started, and he had become a member of the plot, and when he was hesitating, Wang Yang strode in front of him: "Watch my movements." β
Zheng Zha, he was stunned for a moment, and a hot current suddenly surged in his heart, of course he understood what Wang Yang meant, if no one took the initiative to change the direction of the second laser, then it was very likely that the corpse was divided into one of himself and Wang Yang, and now that Wang Yang was standing in front, then the laser cutting line that changed direction would only be aimed at himγγγγγγ Zheng Zha was in a trance for a moment, and was about to speak, when Wang Yang suddenly raised his voice: "It's coming!" β
Yes, sure enough, the light on the walls on both sides of the opposite side dimmed violently, and a thin laser line appeared between the glass walls, and this laser thin line slashed towards the three of them when it was formed!
Matthew Addison reacted the fastest, he slammed Zheng Zha to the ground, Zheng Zha felt that the laser line was just passing over his shoulder, and the sharp and fiery feeling seemed to be pressed against his shoulder, but other than that, his mind was already blank.
Wang Yang also fully showed his physical fitness at this time, and he leaned back to avoid the laser.
"No, don't! I don't want to die! Zheng Zha shouted frantically, for some reason, the more he screamed, the calmer his heart became, and he began to recall every fragment of this episode in the Resident Evil movie.
Matthew Addison had just stood up, when Wang Yang shouted, "Be careful, the second way is here again!" β
This time the laser line was formed from the height of the legs, Zheng Zhe recalled the details of this clip in his mind, he remembered that this laser line would be cut through the first mercenary, and then the second mercenary would be cut high when he jumped up, and then the second mercenary would be divided, he only had one choice, once he failed, he would be killed by the laser line! He doesn't know if the plot will change here, so he can only choose to believe the plot of the movie as he knows it in his head.
The laser line began to quickly slash towards the three of them, Zheng Zha's eyes widened and he looked at Wang Yang's movements in front of him intently, one second, two seconds, at this life-and-death juncture, Zheng Zha's felt as if time had quieted down, he couldn't hear any sound anymore, and everything around him seemed to have slowed down.
"Spiritual threshold breakthrough! Bonus points of 500 points, increased mental value by 20 points, and increased nerve reaction speed by 30 points! β
A rigid but solemn voice crossed Zheng Zha's ears, but he couldn't hear anything anymore, he could only watch Wang Yang's movements with all his attention, and finally, at the moment he jumped up, Zheng Zha's sudden fall to the ground, the laser line crossed in front of his eyes, and the white light was like the scythe of death, at this moment, Zheng Zha believed Zhang Jie's words, they did enter this so-called game together with the flesh, this is the masterpiece of the gods, or it may be the game of demons, they ...... It's going to die!
The laser really slashed high when Wang Yang jumped up, if Wang Yang jumped vertically like the mercenary in the original plot, then he would be 100% completely divided, but when Wang Yang carefully recalled the plot, he found that the mercenary was cut in the chest when he jumped, and with the mercenary's physical fitness, he jumped with all his strength when he was highly nervous, and the height should be considerable, that is to say, there is a large distance between the changes of direction this time, if you control the height of the jump, there is a great possibility of getting through the danger; When the third laser line comes, it's time to send points.
So when Wang Yang jumped up and was about to reach the highest point, he made a tiger pounce in the air.
Fortunately, Wang Yang judged correctly again.
Zheng Zha jumped up from the ground again, he looked back, and on the glass opening of the steel gate behind him, Zhan Lan was also standing outside, her eyes full of tears.
Zheng Zha only had time to smile at her, and then he and Wang Yang dragged Matthew Addison close to the door at the entrance when he came, although Wang Yang felt that his heart was almost struggling to jump out of his chest, but he was completely relieved, he knew that the most dangerous moment had passed, and as long as he dealt with it carefully, at least two B-level branch lines would not be able to run.
Matthew Addison struggled desperately, "Let go of me!" We're all going to be cut in two at this point! Let me go! β
Zheng Zhe grabbed him by the collar and said, "Trust me! Believe me! This time we couldn't dodge anything, so we stuck to the gate and only then could we try our luck! Trust me! β
Matthew Addison was about to say anything more, Wang Yang turned his head to look into his eyes and said, "Captain Addison, you can trust us." There was an unmistakable confidence in his voice (it's a great feeling to be fooled when it's safe!). Look at us, the eyes are sincere enough, right? The expression is serious enough, right? The tone is firm enough, right? Are you still obedient? οΌγ
The third laser line has gradually formed, and at the same time as it is formed, it quickly slashes towards the two, according to the position it shows, it will cut off the two of them, Matthew Addison looked at Wang Yang, sighed, and said, "Okay then! Then he stopped struggling, and with Zheng Zhe, he was clinging to the door with his whole body, and slowly closed his eyes.
Zheng Zhe opened his eyes, he didn't see the disappearance of the laser net, but he knew that he had succeeded, and the familiar plot was pushed by inertia again, and he finally struggled to survive from death, in the past twenty years of life, he had never been so close to death at such a moment, and the trajectory of death crossed his shoulder, so close!
"What is this?"
Zheng Zhe was sighing about his luck, suddenly he noticed that a small ball of light appeared from the collar of Matthew Addison he was pulling, he curiously picked up the ball of light, and the ball of light a few centimeters in size then disappeared between his fingers, and a warm breath seemed to enter the body from his fingers, which was a strange and comfortable feeling.
"B-level horror side plot completed, reward points of 5,000 points!"
The rigid but solemn voice before sounded again, Zheng Qi recalled what he seemed to hear when the laser line was crossed before, and when he thought about it carefully, he seemed to have been rewarded with five hundred reward points and twenty points of mental power and thirty points of nervous reaction speed, which is already a thousand reward points, according to Zhang Jie, this is the reward that can be obtained by experiencing a horror movie. Coupled with the T virus and serum harvested on the train, is it considered to be rich overnight?
After a little mental calculation, it was like a big cake falling from the sky, shaking Zheng Zhe to tremble, and I don't know whether it was the joy of survival or the surprise of reward, in short, when the door opened and several people rushed towards him, he still stood there in a daze.
Li Xiaoyi rushed to Zheng Zhe's side and patted him on the shoulder vigorously and said, "You are amazing! I survived such a situation! β
Zheng Zhe was photographed back to his senses, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, but he didn't know what it was like in his heart, he didn't even know what to say at the moment, so he came back from the moment of life and death, which is too exciting for an ordinary person who has just come out of the ordinary world.
Zhan Lan also came over and said: "You deserve it, I have been reminding you not to change the plot before, but you didn't listen, Zhang Jie was actually right before, our biggest reliance here is not luck, but we are familiar with all this plot, your luck can't always be with you, don't be so impulsive in the future, none of us want to die here." β
Zheng Zhe shook his head and didn't speak, he didn't know whether to tell the reward, B-level horror side plot, what does this mean? Does it mean that the plot has changed? Or does it mean saving the characters in the plot who should have died? Or did you survive a very dangerous scene in the plot? If it weren't for Wang Yang this timeγγγγγγ By the way, Wang Yang?
Zheng Zhe hurriedly raised his head, and it was Wang Yang's faint smile that caught his eyes. Wang Yang was surrounded by mercenaries, but he just nodded to him, and the joy and relief in his eyes calmed Zheng Zhe down suddenly.
This is a horror movie, no one in it is absolutely safe, everyone can die, they are just struggling bugs, all struggling to survive!
