Chapter 20 Return to the Forbidden Zone
Wang Kunzhi didn't care about all this, whether it was Zhang Zhiyu and Wang Jianyu's uninvited induction, being forcibly pulled out of the building they had to rely on, being chased by thousands of robots, or just hunting robots. It seems that he has permanently lost his fear of death since the virus was developed. Because there is no direction? Because of a loss of motivation? Even the new idea just now didn't cheer him up. In the past few days, one thought has been haunting Wang Kunzhi, that is, death, get out of it all, away from this chaotic planet, and forever fall into the dark abyss of tranquility. The plan and the damn transparent structure constrained him and all the other scientists, but when the virus was actually developed and all the tasks were over, he found that the real constraints were not these, but the whole world, and the idea of leaving here forever was completely gone, but the dependence on the forbidden area weighed heavily on him.
Wang Kunzhi believes that the end of the world is none of his business, and the era of heroes is over, and it has ceased to exist long ago fifty or sixty years ago. As for the machine that called itself "Wang Jianyu", Wang Kunzhi was only slightly wary, Wang Jianyu was obviously also made by the people or things that made these machines, but he didn't know that he was just a machine at all. So what did it think when it easily destroyed the machine soldiers in the parking lot? Does he think he's Superman?
Thinking of this, Wang Kunzhi laughed unconsciously. The car drove through the lanes to the restricted area, and he easily found the shortest path on the map. This saves time and dodges those bastard machines.
Since Wang Jianyu went to the factory, he has been crazy, and he seems to have collapsed because he has found something, and he is extremely painful. Especially the last sentence it said to the two, "Be careful of the other Wang Jianyu." What does this mean? Wang Kunzhi pondered a few words over and over again, literally, there are many "Wang Jianyu" who will join this crazy dance party, and it is extremely unfriendly. Looking at it at a deeper level, Wang Jianyu must have discovered something, but it didn't say it. Is there no time? Thinking of its last sad expression, it must have found something that was destined for tragedy, but had to continue, and it just didn't want to face it. In addition, Wang Kunzhi has to admit that the machine "Wang Jianyu" has great leadership and personality charm. Even I began to imitate myself unconsciously.
Turning the last corner, in front of him, the forbidden area that he had nested all his life was already close in front of him, and the magnificent buildings up to four or five hundred meters high reflected the light of the sun and shook his eyes, but Wang Kunzhi did not turn his gaze away, he stared intently at the building that he was extremely disgusted even a month ago, and felt that he had returned to his own home.
The material used to make the building is a diamond-like myehedron that seems to change shape when illuminated by sunlight. Over the years, many of the buildings built at the same time are dilapidated, but they are still as good as new.
Wang Kunzhi suddenly reacted that since Zhang Zhiyu sent him the real appearance of these materials, he couldn't see what he imagined.
"Could it be the same in there?" Wang Kunzhi thought worriedly.
The car slammed into a ruined bus. Thanks to its vulnerability, the car smashed the charred sidewall of the car to pieces, and most of the debris dissipated like powder.
Wang Kunzhi looked left and right and found that no robots had killed him.
He pulled out a drug pill and put it in his mouth, feeling its smooth crust slowly melt in his warm, moist mouth before disappearing.
Wang Kunzhi drove into the area of the semi-circular square of the forbidden area. To the right of the square, there is a large pile of ashes and car skeletons burned by flames. He remembered the female mutant.
"Zhang Zhiyu likes to call them 'zombies', Wang Jianyu likes to call them 'lizard people', and I still like to call them 'mutants'." Wang Kunzhi thought, grabbed a handful of pills and stuffed them into his mouth, and chewed hard.
He took all his weapons and cleverly parked the car in the corner of the pile of ashes.
Wang Kunzhi entered the forbidden area smoothly, all the equipment was operating as usual, the interior was the same as usual, Wang Jianyu's expected electronic equipment chaos did not occur, and Wang Kunzhi's expected system damage did not occur. Wang Kunzhi slowly walked through the huge hall with his gun in his hand, and his vigilance was much less.
The elevator rises to the 3rd floor and slowly opens. If it is an outsider who does not wear special imaging glasses, if he enters the forbidden area in some extremely strange way, it is equivalent to becoming blind, and even worse, they will eventually die due to brain disorder, depending on their physical and psychological qualities.
After "cleaning up" with Zhang Zhiyu two days ago, he did not completely remove the bloodstains, and now, the natural fluorescence emitted by the wall has turned into a charred yellow through the blood. But in Wang Kunzhi's eyes, it was the lamp that originally emitted a soft white light that was transformed into a breathless burnt yellow.
"How?" He muttered to himself, looking up at the lamp reflected in his fantasies.
"Come on." Wang Kunzhi opened the door of the laboratory on this floor, and the fragments of the cyborg were lying scattered more than 20 meters in front of him, and the remnants of the second cyborg were lying on the opposite side.
"It's a mess." When Wang Kunzhi saw this scene, a nameless fire burst out, and people who were obsessed with cleanliness couldn't stand this large pile of messy garbage.
I'm a cleanliness addict, which is also a reason to spit on the real world outside the forbidden area.
Wang Kunzhi suppressed his anger and tried to connect to the room's system. He wanted to find out all the information about the virus and go to the center of the exclusion zone to conduct an experiment.
Connection error. Warnings with these four red words appeared one by one, slowly covering Wang Kunzhi's entire line of sight.
"Fuck it." Wang Kunzhi felt like he was going crazy, he roared hard, and felt that his vocal cords seemed to be torn. He grabbed his hair with both hands, tearing it everywhere with all his might, and at the same time, he moved wildly, constantly slamming into various experimental equipment or walls.
In an instant, all the warnings were gone, but the system still couldn't connect.
"that." He cursed, and he walked briskly towards the spare information cabinet in his memory, and he was so hard that he wanted to stomp the whole building down.
The memory was vague, but anyway, it was pointing at the only workbench that was pierced by the laser that it had emitted. And the rest of the body of the second cyborg was still pressed heavily on it.
"What the fuck ......" The thought of death intensified, and he circled around the room.
"Oh my God!" Wang Kunzhi shouted like a breakdown.
"Calm down, you must have thought wrong." He comforted himself and rummaged around the other workbenches, even though he knew it couldn't be there.
After about 30 minutes of meaningless smashing, Wang Kunzhi collapsed in the middle of a large pile of debris, crying and laughing in a frenzy.
"That's enough, think about it." Wang Kunzhi sat up, covered his face with his hands, "Recall the details." "It's just that now his head hurts so much that he has completely lost the ability to think.
As Wang Kunzhi's physical strength gradually lost, his anger gradually subsided. There was only a little after-effect, his brain was still throbbing, he couldn't concentrate, and he had the illusion that he had infinite power. He stood up, stumbled out of the lab, swooped down on the elevator, coded to the core of the military exclusion zone, and sat heavily in the corner of the elevator, burying his head in his arms and staring at the ground between his knees.
The system did not fail again, and the elevator immediately soared vertically upwards, and when it reached halfway to the height of the building, it suddenly stuck. One side of the wall leading to the interior of the massive building opened layer by layer, revealing a tunnel to the core, the same size as an elevator, but the interior was black and hollow, and the walls did not emit any light. The elevator changed its track and began to move parallel through the dark tunnel to its destination.
From above, the military restricted area is established in the city and does not look closed at all. Although the average height of these towers is 150 meters, it is still not comparable to this transparent structure. It stands out from the crowd among those buildings. The foundation of the building is tens of millions of square meters, built in the shape of a pentagram, and the outermost part is a number of tall towers, about 450 meters high, connected by a "city wall" about 300 meters high, guarding the castle behind it. Inside the "city wall", there are many identical towers, all arranged in a regular five-pointed star. They differ from the exterior towers in that only part of these are exposed above the "city walls", and the rest are submerged by the basic structure, which is more than 300 meters high. Further inward, the 300-meter-high basic building descends gently, creating a slope that is not too steep. The ramp finally coincides at one point, which is a huge point, the centerpiece of the entire exclusion zone. It is an anomalous hemisphere, reaching almost 500 meters at its highest point, shining more than the rest of the penalty area, and dividing more sections. It is impossible to build this building with the scientific and technological strength of China and even mankind.
It does stand here.
Ahead, is the core, that is, the hemisphere. The sealed wall opened again, and the elevator rushed out of the wall, coming to a steady stop at the end of a bulge of just the right size.
The smoke after Wang Kunzhi extinguished his anger had completely dissipated. He calmly typed in another code, and the elevator door opened. Wang Kunzhi stepped out of the elevator, stepped into a meter-wide transparent corridor, and walked forward unhurriedly.
At this time, the core is filled with all kinds of noises, the shrill howl of some creature, the electronic sound of the system collapsing, and the explosion sound of the instrument shattering and destroying to form a chaotic and crazy hell symphony.
The internal structure of the exclusion zone is so complex that it is almost impossible to describe in words. The 600 meters below is the lowest point that can be reached. It is densely packed with labyrinthine enclosed workshops and open-air workbenches. Above, there are a large number of seemingly suspended workshops and terraces, and countless corridors connect everything, some with tracks for small maglev trains, and the rest are corridors that can only be walked. Those transparent terraces vary in size, from small ones of only a dozen square meters to large ones of several thousand square meters, and each large terrace is a train station leading to other places. Each elevator leads to the core, so what appears to be a sleek wall actually has thousands of tunnels. The top is the same as the bottom, and when it is more than 50 meters from the highest point of the hemisphere, it is cut off by the waist. Gu Wang Kunzhi knows that there is no way to go to the real bottom and the top.
Wang Kunzhi walked to the nearest terrace, which was spotless, but it was damaged by someone, and the damage was very serious.
"Artificial intelligence cleaned up here." Wang Kunzhi thought, "But it's all over, what are they still studying?" “
He tried to connect the system of this terrace.
Still a connection error.
When the warnings had cleared, he flipped through the filing cabinets, which were in good condition. He looked at it, and the filing cabinets were all about the solution to the virus, and the research results had no antidote, and they were all special viruses for plants and animals.
"What did they find?" Wang Kunzhi thought.
He picked out a few important documents and let go, leaving the rest scattered on the ground.
Wang Kunzhi picked up a set of photos, and now few people take photos, but when the system crashes, it's really good.
The first photo, of several semi-machine cockroaches, is very crudely processed and looks like it was done under tight time. The second one is some pictures of the old virus after irradiation, the cockroach is dead, and only a part of the machine is left and the mind remains. The third is another picture of a new type of virus, where the cockroach has successfully mutated, and its body that is not covered by the machine has become a lizard.
Wang Kunzhi frowned, thought about it, and with a flick of his hand, the three photos slid down the railing of the terrace and fell a few hundred meters down.
In the fourth photo, there are multiple cyborg animals, huge in size, most of their bodies are machines. The fifth is the robot animal after the successful mutation. After the mutation, most of those machine structures were actually pushed down by the regenerated body, and the remaining bit was attached to the body like rags. Wang Kunzhi carefully identified and found that these robot animals should be some kind of genetically modified large dogs.
There are only these five photos.
"It can't be all there is." Wang Kunzhi muttered to himself, he continued to flip through the rest of the records, and he noticed that everything was going quickly, simply, and roughly.
"What a fucking damn one." Wang Kunzhi thought, "I hope the results of the experiment are all dead." He stepped aside and dismantled some experimental tools that could be used as weapons.
The tram is about to arrive. The imaging eye shows.
The tram was running without a sound at all. Wang Kunzhi immediately rushed to the tram entrance, and the tram runs every 10 minutes on average.
The tram door opened gently, and Wang Kunzhi walked into the tram. The train stops for 30 seconds at a time, and only then does the doors open.
When he got into the tram, he felt that someone was watching him. Wang Kunzhi looked around, but found nothing, so he had to sit by the car door, take out the document just now, and read it with a hard head.
Wang Kunzhi felt the light in the car flash, and at the same time, he involuntarily flew out, fell on the chair in the front row, and rolled down. Just now, a black shadow that had been lurking at the bottom of the back seat of the car fired a laser at Wang Kunzhi, but he didn't know that Wang Kunzhi had done some protection, and the power of the laser was completely offset by the "body armor" made of that substance.
Wang Kunzhi immediately got up and swirled, and by the way, he raised the cutter, preparing to collapse the black shadow's head.
"Huh?" The human who fired the laser had stepped forward and was ready to deliver the final blow, but he stopped when he realized that the target was a human. His face was covered by a protective head cover, and his expression could not be seen, but from his tone, it could be seen that he was very surprised, "You are number 4!" ”
"You're human too!" Wang Kunzhi was also very surprised, and he threw the cutter aside.
The human took off his helmet and put down another laser cutter, "I'm number 28. You are number 4. He stepped forward.
