Chapter 001: The Gate of the Void
Under the scorching sun, hundreds of people were surrounding the third base city in the southwest, in the slums, on Poplar Street.
Most of these people were ragged, sallow, and had different complexions, and they were all talking about each other at this time.
"I heard that the young man's adoptive mother was killed by a drunk, so he used the knife in anger."
"He shouldn't have done it, even if his mother was killed, and now he killed someone else and let his life be gone......"
"I know, he's a lowly clone, and it's okay to be dead."
"Clone! How do you know, I didn't see it before! ”
"You see for yourself, there's a special code on the back of his neck, isn't it a clone or something?"
"It's really ......"
Immediately, everyone's cold eyes instantly turned into disdain and disgust, and even subconsciously retreated, and they avoided this perverted thing like a snake and scorpion in their hearts.
In the center of the crowd, there were three corpses, a woman and two men, whose blood had flowed all over the ground, which stood out in the scorching sun.
Suddenly, among the three corpses, the body of the young man with a thin figure moved slightly.
……
Zhang Mu felt extremely painful in his chest, as if he had been stabbed several times, especially the inexplicable smell of blood and garbage between his nostrils, which made him frown and open his eyes.
Seeing that he was being watched, surrounded by unfamiliar characters and environments, and two corpses lying next to him, he subconsciously wiped his chest, sticky, it was actually blood!
He was even more confused.
"Huh? Not dead? It seems that he fainted only after exhaustion and excessive blood loss. ”
"The result is not the same, there is no chance, he killed someone, and the garrison will come over immediately."
"He's a clone, he doesn't even have an identity, and if this kind of lowly thing dares to kill people, most of them will be dragged to be cannon fodder."
……
The indifferent and disdainful eyes, strange and incomprehensible words, made Zhang Mu unable to react for a while.
"Murder? Clones? Cannon fodder? Seems to say me? ”
"I'll go, what the hell is going on?"
Zhang Mu, whose face was covered with blood, said that he was very confused, didn't he just stay up late playing games and fell asleep? Why did you run to this ghost place as soon as you woke up, covered in injuries, as if you had become some kind of clone, and you still killed people?
How is this possible?
Didi!
At this moment, a dilapidated military vehicle drove up, and five uniformed soldiers of the garrison came down from it.
The middle-aged man led by him said with a serious face: "The garrison office is doing things, and the idle people are out of the way!"
The crowd hurriedly avoided it, their eyes dodging.
In the base city, who dares to stand in the way of the guards? So, a straight passage immediately appeared.
Da-da-da-da!
In the midst of a chaotic footsteps, Zhang Mu saw several soldiers surrounding him, their guns and clothes, which he had never seen before.
He was still thinking about his situation.
"Take him away, send him to the thirteenth battalion, and leave someone to clean up the scene."
The middle-aged soldier glanced at the scene coldly, didn't give Zhang Mu a chance to speak, and issued an order with some disgust.
Click!
Zhang Mu was shackled in a daze, and then he was pulled into front of the military vehicle, he looked up and wanted to ask, but the young man who escorted him didn't want to talk nonsense at all, and rudely pushed him into the car.
Bang!
Coincidentally, his head collided with the steel pipe in the car, and the wound was pulled, and when he opened his mouth, he couldn't speak in pain.
"Nima!"
He cursed in his heart, and suddenly, he felt his head explode, a strange memory flooded back, and at the same time, something strange seemed to open in his head.
Zhang Mu rolled his eyes and fainted directly.
As if in a dream, Zhang Mu saw phantoms swaying in front of him, just like a movie, and the protagonist in it was a teenager who looked similar to him but was younger, but the experience was very tragic.
Because, the other party is not an ordinary person, but a cloned human being, and even the name is just a code, and it was in an incubator before waking up.
According to the original fate, he should have gone to the battlefield to resist zombies and alien beasts when he matured, but because of the abolition of the cloning armament program, this guy was thrown out and became an ordinary human before he matured.
However, although he was an ordinary person, he was also a poor man, he had nothing, and after being abandoned at that time, he was still young, had no means of survival at all, and almost starved to death on the street, but was lucky enough to be picked up by a kind woman and became his adopted son.
But the good times didn't last long, and before this guy could enjoy life for a few years, his adoptive mother was inexplicably stabbed to death by a drunk, and he also angrily fought with the drunk man and killed him with his own hands.
After that, it was what Zhang Curtain saw, which was barely connected.
These memories are just like movies, after all, they are two people, so he doesn't have much sense of touch, and even the death of his adoptive mother has little to do with Zhang Mu.
However, he found it unbelievable that, according to the memories of the guy before, the era he was in now was actually a thousand years later, 1001 years to be exact.
"Is there any mistake, when I woke up, everything changed!"
Zhang Mu's consciousness was a little dazed, he clearly remembered that he was just a college student in 2019, playing games all night in the dormitory, and after he fell asleep, the world changed, and even his body was not his own!
Buzzing!
Suddenly, the memory fragments of his original body were dissipated into fragments, and a door appeared in front of him.
This is an ancient door, which seems to be composed of bronze, looks magnificent, extremely mysterious, as if it contains the whole world, but it is so weird that it is so strange that it feels that it is only a few feet high, more than three feet wide, there is no handle on the door, but it is full of countless magical lines, and it flashes with a faint white light.
"Holy, what the hell is this!"
Zhang Mu felt for a while that he must be dreaming, what he had experienced before was a dream within a dream, and he wouldn't have played so many games if he had known it.
Suddenly, an emotionless voice sounded that could not distinguish between men and women: "The Gate of the Void is binding the host...... Binding successful! ”
"Cut, sure enough, there are too many games, and it's killing and ancient doors, and it's still binding, this dream is complicated enough."
Zhang Mu smiled, and in the next moment, he felt the real consciousness.
In the cold cell, the light is dim and damp, and the dust and garbage on the floor have not been dealt with for I don't know how many years.
Zhang Mu opened his eyes again, and the scene he saw was still not his bedroom, and the incomparably cold touch on the ground made him sit up with a breath.
"Ahh
The wound pulled, and Zhang Mu couldn't help screaming.
He trembled and looked down, under the tattered and smelly clothes, in several holes in his chest, the hideous wounds were still with black blood, his whole body was sore and weak, and his throat was so thirsty that it was about to smoke.
Gradually, everything in reality made him fall into an ice cave, and he couldn't help but have a thought in his heart:
"Is it true that I saw it before?"
"Is it true that more than a thousand years later, I was reborn in a clone?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Mu felt a burst of despair, everything he had before, computers, games, comfortable beds, familiar people...... All these good things are gone, and now they are facing jail time!
"God, don't bring such a playful person."
"I'm such a handsome person, I can't die!"
Zhang Mu's face turned pale and muttered, "I want to go back, I don't want to stay here."
"Wait! That bronze door! That must be the way back! Zhang Mu's eyes lit up, and he turned his head to see that there was only the cold and dark prison door, and there were other doors.
"I saw it in a dream, it should be in my head!"
Zhang Mu closed his eyes and wanted to continue dreaming, but a white light blinded in front of him, and then he only felt that the heavens and the earth lit up, and a familiar bronze ancient door appeared.
Look at himself again, bare and undressed, a bird flies at will, but he doesn't bother to care so much, he comes directly to the door, stretches out his hand and pushes forward.
No response!
"The energy is insufficient, and the Void Gate cannot be opened for the time being."
It was that voice again, and Zhang Mu said a little excitedly: "What are you?"
"The machine spirit of the Void Gate, judging from your understanding, can also be called a system."
"I'm going back, okay?"
"The host is dead in the past plane and can't go back!"
Zhang Mu immediately felt that the whole world was going to collapse, and he said in disbelief: "How is it possible, I'm in such good health, why don't I just play a game!"
The machine spirit didn't answer, but the meaning was already obvious.
Standing in front of the bronze ancient gate, it took Zhang Mu a long time to accept the reality, and said expressionlessly: "What is this door for?"
"You'll know when you open it."
"How much longer?"
"Collecting energy, it will be turned on in 10 hours."
