Chapter 27: The Last Watchman
Onno looked at the barrage of words on the screen, a series of question marks in his mind, questions he had never thought about and that they were trying to carry out another experiment and plan on themselves outside of the Warden plan? This was in addition to the conditions given by the Cosmic Watchtower when Onno became a watchman.
After reading this third document, Onno's anger rose little by little, and he endured countless years of loneliness, without relatives and lovers to carry out this backup plan. The people in the watchtower wanted to use themselves for another experiment, one that could kill them.
The Watchman is not something that can be done by a random person, after all, it will take countless years of slumber and multiple remodeling surgeries. All of this is done while maintaining a human psyche, so there are very few qualified people for the Watcher Project. Every watchman has gone through solitary isolation experiments and survival experiments in completely silent rooms, and only after these experiments have passed will the watchmen be selected for the next step of transformation.
Onno looked at the document to be experimented with, and his anger continued to burn. But suddenly, Onno came back to his senses, no, he obviously wasn't experimented! Onno knew what those guys were doing, and once they acted, they were very fast, and judging from the records of his hibernation chamber when he had just woken up, no human had entered it and tried to wake him up during the hundred years he had been asleep, except for the robot cleaning and routine maintenance of the interior of the room.
"Could it be...... Is this an abandoned plan?! Thinking about this, he suddenly heard a ticking sound on the host computer, and he looked and found that the fourth document, which he couldn't read at all, had been cracked by the hexagonal ball's artificial intelligence. The words on it that Onno couldn't read had been converted into words that Onno knew.
As for the kind of writing he didn't recognize, the AI told Onno that they belonged to an ancient language, from which all the current writing was developed. Onno nodded and opened the fourth document, which was full of text descriptions and not a single image.
And when Onno saw the first line of the document, he almost spurted out what he had just eaten in his mouth, because it read: "Attempts to awaken the Watchers have failed for the 254th time, we are really wrong, that kind of thing will not be controlled by us at all!" ”
Seeing this, Onno became a little interested, because the people of the Cosmic Watchtower had tried to wake him up, but for some reason, he didn't wake up. It wasn't until eight years later that Onno woke up. Reading on, Onno discovers that the Cosmic Watchtower still has a lot of contact with the ground base at that point in time, and this document also records a bunch of information about the marriage of the newlyweds.
This information shows that at that point in time eight years ago, everything was still in a certain order! However, from the document, Onno read a rather apprehensive feeling, as if the note-taker, whose name was hidden, had some foresight of what was to come.
As you continue to read, more clues are unearthed by Onno, the anonymous person who has done a lot of research on the Cosmic Watchtower and the ground base, and he finds that an unspeakable color that is not carefully observed is attached to most people and the various equipment of the Cosmic Watchtower! And most importantly, the Cosmic Watchtower has developed a new type of technology that can teleport to and from other Cosmic Watchtowers in the distant starry sky!
When Ono saw the teleportation, he immediately remembered the scene when the core was restarted, and those rays of light connected to the rest of the starry sky, and those places were the other cosmic watchtowers! It stands to reason that when those rays of light are connected to other cosmic watchtowers, the other cosmic watchtowers will also emit similar rays and eventually form a rather complex "net" to restart space-time!
It's just that when Ono started the reboot core, the light disappeared before it reached the other cosmic watchtowers! Onno had to connect this to everything with the teleportation mentioned in the document. The next text cleared up some doubts for Onno! After the successful research of this teleportation, a large number of people teleported to each other, and that special color gradually appeared on almost every person in the cosmic watchtower and ground base with the flow of personnel.
"What I didn't expect was that this particular color was attached to the reboot core, which also caused a strange vibration on the cosmic watchtower, and I wanted to warn them, but it was too late! It's too late! "The document appears unusually sad and helpless at the end of the record. But then, the whole document becomes strange, and it seems that this anonymous wants everyone to die?!
The helplessness and despair contained in the previous text turned into an eerie feeling, as if the anonymous had been affected by something. As he continued to read, he realized that what was next was just some of the anonymous's weird fantasies.
The abrupt halt of the text suggests that the anonymous person may have disappeared by accident before he could finish writing. After reading this document, Onno didn't wrinkle any more, because there were many things that didn't match what he saw! First of all, at this point in time eight years ago, according to the monitoring content that Onno saw on the monitoring equipment of the space watchtower, eight years ago, there were small-scale riots and a large number of violent incidents in the entire space watchtower.
The second question is, who is the identity of this anonymous person? He can investigate the cosmic watchtower and ground base, and he can also observe the reboot core, which is an important piece of equipment, and what is even more strange is that this person actually came to this very secret place at his last moment to edit and enter the document! The person with this kind of authority, Onno doesn't know who it is, let alone what his purpose is!
"Drop! Drip! After reading the document, the system will play a voice and video, please listen and watch it yourself. The hexagonal AI detected that Onno's gaze was off the screen, gave a voice prompt, and then a voice was played:
"Lookouts or whoever can read these final documents, hello, I'm the last R4N member alive. If you hear this message, keep the following information in mind. "There was a very tired feeling in the person who spoke.
"That special color has entered other cosmic watchtowers through the portal, and if you want to restart the core, you must get rid of this special color! The way to get rid of it is simple, and that is to use ...... ...... X…… Zizi! …… Ang, this is the only way to get rid of it completely! Don't forget! ”
After the voice was played, the video was played simultaneously, and the time of recording of this video is no longer clear, but the content inside can be very clear about what happened in the cosmic watchtower! At an unknown point in time, many people in the cosmic watchtower suddenly fell to the ground moaning or convulsing in pain due to unbearable abdominal pain. By the time the medical team arrived, the men had completely stopped breathing!
Immediately after, several translucent tentacles with corrugated stripes suddenly grew out of the bodies of these people who stopped breathing, and began to attack all living creatures in the vicinity! The X-Terminator robot was sent to solve this kind of thing, but it did not merge with all the robot bodies and those flesh and blood, and the originally very simple robot mind was turned into killing by that special color!
A cosmic watchtower of the Shura field appeared, countless people were killed, although the internal defense team gained the initiative for a certain period of time and temporarily suppressed those flesh and blood machines that had gone out of control, but when the internal defense team called for help from other cosmic watchtowers, they received only chaotic and disorderly roars!
After all, the human body needs to rest, and the flesh machines are not bothered by this kind of thing, although they have machine bodies, they will still attack any human in sight and devour them! In the end, the human race was unable to resist, and the final scene was fixed in several people wearing the uniforms of the Nine Lives Cat Squad, escorting a woman dressed in black to evacuate in the direction of the space elevator.
Seeing this scene, it is very similar to one of the people in the Nine Lives Cat team and Captain Whirlwind! Ono had reason to believe that the woman in black must be the author of this document, but now that the whirlwind captain had also turned into a monster, the woman in black who sent the message had already disappeared from this "prison".
After the video and voice played, Onno looked at the empty screen, his mind was completely complete, and what he couldn't understand was what that thing that was hidden by everyone was! The entire Cosmic Watchtower, and even the entire planet, has a lot to do with that thing!
Ono thought for a while, he didn't have a clue, and just wanted to look at the rest of the documents on the host computer to see if he could find some other clues, but when Ono sat up straight again, suddenly his hands and feet were tied to death! Then a long progress bar appeared on the hexagonal ball AI!
When the qualified progress bar reaches 99.99%, there is a pause, and the progress bar disappears, replaced by a lilac diamond with a line written on top of it: "The Last Watcher." Then the diamond-shaped square spoke, and the voice was exactly the same as before.
"Just now the automatic retrieval of the system, retrieving all the information of the watchers in the cosmic watchtower, only you are still alive! You should have failed to reboot the core, I don't know what kind of hard work you received to come to this place, now all the permissions of R4N will be authorized to you, and the highest control authority of the logistics base will also be given to you. We just hope that you will restart it all! Get the world back on track! ”
"We are all forsaken, and we and the other cosmic watchtowers are holding out all unknown threats that may come to us in the abyss of the forgotten starry sky! Now everything is up to you......"
The voice gradually narrowed, and the voice with a mission made it impossible for Onno to refuse. And he really needs to do that now. Because just now, Onno was given all the rights to the entire logistics base, and he found that there was still the last light of the fire of human civilization in this place, millions of frozen human embryos and hundreds of adult men and women.
Neither the humans nor the embryos had experienced any contamination, and were safely lying in the core warehouse of the logistics base. If Onno also suffers a fall from the outside, they will be the last bit of light to restart human civilization.
