Chapter 318: Stuck Progress Bar
When Zhang Lan fell into the illusion, Qiao Barton was also having nightmares, every day, he slept for nearly 12 hours, and there was no way to tell others that the narcolepsy caused by the ability would only keep having all kinds of nightmares.
The eighteen layers of hell are considered the most primary, and the most terrifying thing is to dream of the process of being created, from the infant state to being screened by the assembly line, watching many of the same children being thrown into the trash, and every moment when the inspector picks up his four eyes and makes the weak and powerless beg to survive.
He has tried to take sleeping pills, attend various psychological counseling classes, and even do yoga, but there is no way to relieve it. Slowly, in the nightmare he was not afraid of anything, and fear became an emotion that was extremely difficult to shake his nerves.
But what Joe Barton had to admit was that Zhang Lan really gave him a taste of fear again. He grasped Joe Barton's fear more clearly than anyone else, and presented it naturally in front of him.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Qiao Barton was really scared, afraid that Zhang Lan would smash the memory card, and afraid of his smile that seemed to see through everything.
That's why he agreed to Zhang Lan's insertion into the Tianyan host as a medium, but now, he began to have an even more terrifying nightmare, he dreamed of ...... Zhang Lan did not succeed in eliminating Barton, but was devoured by Barton, his body became Barton's puppet, and the Tianyan host also became Barton's power.
Even if you're the strongest on the ground? Joe Barton had to kneel down in front of Zhang Lan, or rather, Barton's feet, and had to be slaughtered like a dog.
Joe Barton was awakened by Barton's wild laughter, and with a cold sweat, he gasped for a long time before he calmed down.
He turned around and left the bedroom, looking at the clock on the wall, he had been sleeping for 4 days? Remembering the countdown on the Eye console that day, Joe Barton hurriedly rushed to the underground test area.
At this time, the surrounding test area had been suspended, and all personnel had been evacuated. The air temperature in this vast space has been heated to 57 degrees Celsius, and no matter how much air conditioning is used, it cannot be cooled.
It was no longer just Zhang Lan's body that emitted high temperatures, but the 200-meter-high Tianyan host, and the entire surface turned red, like a red-hot column, changing the temperature of the entire test area.
"How do I get back?" Qiao Barton hurriedly rushed to the Tianyan host, Zhang Lan was still sitting next to the console, his whole body was red like a boiled lobster, what kind of ice cubes, the cold water cooling method no longer worked, there was no ice cubes that could be used in this kind of place, Alice and Yuna also took off their coats and only wore thermostatic combat uniforms.
"How so?" Joe Barton asked, puzzled.
"Since 3 days ago, the Tianyan host has an overheating reaction, and the hydrocondensate heat dissipation system has been increased, and the temperature has been rising, and the core temperature is estimated to exceed 700 degrees." Alice reported with a glance.
"At such a high temperature, the chip will burn out." Qiao Barton said, with a wave of his hand, the temperature around him dropped rapidly, and even the surface of the hot Tianyan host also condensed frost.
The temperature around the Sky Eye host immediately dropped from 57 degrees to about 10 degrees, and the frost was solidifying and melting on the other, and the Sky Eye host that continued to release high temperatures was equivalent to competing with Joe Barton's ability.
"Chill me down." Qiao Barton's roaring sword was inserted into the floor, and the temperature suddenly dropped by more than 10 degrees, and the ice on the surface of the Tianyan host was condensed, but the low temperature could not completely penetrate the outer armor and spread to the inside, and the core area of more than 700 degrees Celsius dropped the temperature very little.
"In terms of the plan, there has never been a saying that the main machine of the Sky Eye will overheat, and its heat dissipation level can be quickly restored to cooling by wrapping it with an incendiary bomb."
Joe Barton looked at the numbers on the control panel, and his eyes were about to fall out, just because the progress bar, which should have been at 80% of the time, was stuck at 50%, showing that there were almost 3 days left before the end time, and there were only 23 hours left for the final time of fusion.
"What are you kidding? Why not move? Joe Barton asked.
"Who of us knows why? Is your broken computer too stuck? Yuna said with a look of disdain.
"What you told me is that the fusion can be completed before the final time, I need to explain!" Joe Barton retorted.
"There is no explanation, the progress is stuck, but looking at the scrolling reading bar proves that it is still continuing to merge, maybe Zhang Lan and Barton have met the big file, as long as they get through this part, they will get up quickly." Alice explained.
"Do we have time to wait? Or is there a life to gamble? "Joe Barton asks a key question.
"So what do you want to do? Kill us? Terminate the read? Neither is wise, you have to face an angry Barton, you won't live 1 day more than we do. "Yuna knew too well what Chobbarton was up to, and it was too late to show her loyalty.
"If the load fails, trust me, I'll let you die before Barton kills me." Joe Barton sat down on the steps beside him angrily.
Because of him, the entire underground laboratory turned into a city of ice and snow, and all the items were frozen, except for the Tianyan host, which was still so hot, constantly steaming in the frost, as if steamed.
Now, even Joe Barton had no choice but to wait quietly for the results to appear, praying that the progress bar would run quickly, and only in this way could he save everyone's poor little lives.
At this moment, Barton was floating beside Zhang Lan like a ghost, bursting out of 10 blue rays from the ten fingers of his hands, and the data link composed of 0 and 1 was quickly instilled into Zhang Lan's mind, outlining everything that happened around him.
Zhang Lan's brain has actually been decoding at a high speed, and once the speed of Barton's indoctrination is not as fast as Zhang Lan's decoding, Zhang Lan will immediately wake up from this illusion.
The slightest error is not good, just like just now, Zhang Lan's appearance of his true self flashed in front of him, if it wasn't for Barton's timely remedy, once Zhang Lan remembered what was true, Barton would have no choice but to kill Zhang Lan.
In fact, it is far more difficult not to kill than to kill, Barton has already used all the computing power of the Tianyan host before it awakened, and only in this way can he suppress the computing speed of Zhang Lan's brain.
The more this is the case, the more he is looking forward to Zhang Lan, turning him into his slave and planting it in the Tianyan host forever, which will be a very interesting plan. Only in this way will Barton be able to use his body with peace of mind to enjoy the life of a truly human being.
And Zhang Lan, who was immersed in the illusion, was still unconscious, enjoying her life as an ordinary planner in the city of Shanghai.
On top of that, he has acquired the girl he worked so hard to and also wanted to meet.
Wu Xue lay on the dining table and fell asleep, Zhang Lan sat opposite her and ate dinner, and it was not until she was halfway through her that Wu Xue woke up from her sleep.
"You're back?" Wuxue was surprised.
"yes, I'm back." Zhang Lan smiled.
"Why didn't you wake me up? I said I'm going to give you a hot meal. Wu Xue pouted unhappily.
"Seeing that you are sleeping like a pig, I can't bear to disturb you." Zhang Lan scratched Wuxue's little nose.
"That's not good, I have to take the bowl." Wu Xue said, rolling the chair with both hands and walking around Zhang Lan's side, only to find out at this moment that Wu Xue's feet ...... is crippled.
