Chapter 229: The Mystery of the Log

Faced with such an unbelievable thing, Han Fuyu quickly adjusted his state back. The logs left by the last group will be of great help to us in the rest of our operations, and without it, we will have to move forward in the dark.

North Wind and I followed Christian's instructions and hurried to the location where the logs were kept. There were no traps inside the fortress to trap our own people, and we entered the storage compartment unimpeded, and the Christians had been waiting in the compartment for a long time, and I saw that the wall opposite the door of the compartment had been opened, and there was a large box inside, and under the box was a launcher, hidden in the floor, which could not be seen without careful inspection.

When I saw the crowd arrived, I immediately asked, "Where are the logs stored?" ”

Zhang Yechen, who was standing next to the box, immediately replied: "It's in the launcher!" I don't remember, but I must have designed this place, exactly the same preset I had made, and it was definitely the log file that I was responsible for hiding. Captain Four, don't move to the chest above the dispenser, and the block next to the dispenser, they are connected to the self-destruct mechanism of the entire fortress, and if you run into us, you will have to start all over again! ”

I was about to open the box, but when he said this, I quickly retracted my hand and asked him, "What do you think of the contents of the launcher?" ”

"The chest wasn't as big as a block. See the crack at the bottom of the box? You can feel it with your hand through the crack. Zhang Yechen said.

I had to do as he said, cautiously poking in, touching the vent of the dispenser, and then slowly groping down, the window of the dispenser immediately popped out, eight of the nine slots were filled with TNT, and the remaining slot was empty, presumably where the logs were stored earlier.

"Who discovered this place first? Was there anything unusual when you came in? I retracted my hand and asked.

"It's me." Christian immediately replied, "When I came in, the wall was already open. When I checked the box, I didn't dare to move, because I saw a transmitter under the box, so I immediately asked Peter Zhang to come over. ”

"I see." I was a little depressed, "Zhang Yechen, are there any resources in the box?" Can you find a way to open it? ”

Zhang Yechen smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, yes." In order to entertain the thieves, I stuffed the crate with carrion, but now I was tricked. ”

"Carrion is also called a resource?" I was in a worse mood, "Since there are no logs, let's take the resources in the fortress with you if you can bring them." That's it tonight, Lu Tiantian, you retreat and save your memories, and we will find a bed to sleep. ”

Get off the wrong foot.

……

Early the next morning, we left the fort and followed the same path as the previous group to the taiga. Along the way, you can find many traces of what they left behind, such as trees cut down while gathering resources, and Combine code markers, indicating where the next mission log will be stored.

After the trek, we found three log stores in a row, and struggled to break through the redstone mechanism, only to find that there were no logs at all, which was so unbelievable that I suspected that one of them had stolen the log. To be honest, artificial intelligence is at most the stage of Mingrui, and the mortal body is mortal, according to the estimation of the Ministry of Technology, it is impossible for God to take the log unknowingly, unless one of them evolves to the stage above Mingrui.

The stage above Mingrui only exists in theory, which is a state of thought between the original dimension and the extra-dimensional, and then you can have the idea of the intelligence of the original dimension and the thought of the higher one-dimensional intelligence, which belongs to "jumping out of the three realms and not in the five elements", anyway, it is incomprehensible to the human brain.

Xiao Chen attaches great importance to the strange situation of losing the log, the more the log is lost, and the more completely the memories of the last batch of task forces disappear, the more important it shows that the things in the taiga are important. The Combine is now facing not Kui, nor An Ling, but an invisible opponent, an opponent who can manipulate everything.

It can bypass firewalls and make the task force's memories disappear without a trace; It can ignore redstone traps, rendering all mission logs missing.

When I asked Lu Tiantian to quit the game for the 32nd time and report on the progress of the mission, the entire Combined Forces Operations Department Headquarters and Technical Department Command Center began to gather and pay close attention to this operation. Xiao Chen and the commanders, Nick and the technicians were all standing in front of the screen, directly receiving the real-time game footage of our team.

"Guys, we seem to be about to discover something amazing." Xiao Chen held a cup of coffee in his hand and said to Lu Tiantian and the other commanders.

All the commanders put down their original work and came here to help. Everyone wants to know what is the reason behind the disappearance of memories.

I learned from Lu Tiantian that the higher-level had been fully involved in this operation, and I immediately became a little constrained. Usually there are not so many people staring at the task alone, but now the bosses of the Combine Army don't sleep or do their work, sitting quietly behind the screen and watching me pretend, which is really stressful, so I asked the top management for instructions, saying if I can not carry out micro-manipulation during the mission and concentrate all the command power in my hands.

The higher-ups agreed to my request, and said that they were just looking at it, and had no intention of overstepping the command, and told me to calm down 10,000 hearts and let it go.

With this assurance, I recalled Lu Tiantian and headed for the last log depository. By this time the taiga was already close at hand, and in the distance we could see dense spruce trees and turquoise turf, and we galloped our horses in search of the markers, and found three in succession, but at the fourth mark the clue was broken.

The fourth sign is a long stone path paved with moss, very short, with only five squares arranged in long strips, which happens to be at the edge of the taiga, and further on, you will enter the taiga. We dismounted one after another, leaving only Bu Xin and Lu Tiantian on guard, and the rest gathered at the mark to check.

"This mark is only half done." Christian said as he walked around the marker twice.

Han Fuyu stomped the moss stone twice with his foot, and a little crack appeared on the moss stone, and then quickly returned to its original state. Even though there was only one strip of mossy stone, it was enough to mark the direction, but we couldn't rush forward because it wasn't completely finished.

It didn't take long for the large army of more than 100 people in front of them to make a mark, and the reason why they couldn't leave a complete mark was that they encountered a very urgent emergency situation here, so urgent that they couldn't even leave a complete mark.

"Command." I asked the outside world, "Do you want to move on?" ”

There was a long silence outside before replying, "Keep going." ”

"Keep going." I had no choice but to mount my horse and give orders to the team members to continue looking for traces of the previous team.

The coniferous forest is shrouded in fog, and the trees in the distance can only see pale gray outlines, and the visibility is very low, and the sunlight passes through the fog through the leaves to form the Tyndall effect, and the bright pillars of light block many views. We rode for a long time, and the pillars of light formed by the sunlight gradually tilted, and the hue changed from white to yellow, and from yellow to orange, until the whole coniferous forest was immersed in a patch of gold, and there was still no trace of it.

This further illustrates the terrifying fact that the previous team left a mutilated mark and then all disappeared out of thin air.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Tiantian walked up to me and reminded, "Fourth captain, it's time to prepare for the night." ”

"Can you sleep in this place?" I looked around and said, "If there were enemies, they would never let us survive tonight." Ladies and gentlemen, now that you have reached your destination, you should not do anything, fight quickly, bring torches and flints, and finish exploring this forest tonight. ”

"Captain Four, this is not safe." Christian objected.

"Nope. The fact that there were more than 100 people in front of us disappeared shortly after entering the taiga shows that it is easy for the enemy to deal with our team of only six people. Do you think they'll have to wait until the evening to do it? I said.

"Makes sense. I support Ioyi. Han Fuyu said.
