Chapter Thirty-Nine: A Strange Alarm

A few hours passed, and it was soon dawning. In the past few hours www.biquge.info Zhou Xin has hardly slept, but is lying on the bed constantly thinking about all kinds of strange things in the Nuoshan civilization. Even the others, not long after the dawn, everyone gathered in Zhou Xin's room again. However, the conversation had just begun, and there was another knock at the door of the room.

"Good morning." After opening the door, Zhou Xin found Fergtan standing at the door. He looked sleep-deprived, but other than that, he didn't seem to see anything out of the ordinary.

"Uh-good morning." Zhou Xin frowned slightly, and then subconsciously asked, "It seems that you didn't sleep very well yesterday?" ”

"That's not to blame yesterday's alarm." Fergtan yawned as he walked into Zhou Xin's room, "Huh? Why are you here so early? You don't have to greet me so politely. The crowd ignored Fergtan's joke and all looked at him with strange eyes.

"Whatβ€”what's wrong?" Soon Fergtan noticed the anomaly in the atmosphere, "Why are you all looking at me with such strange eyes?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just that I didn't expect you to call us so early." Zhou Xin said casually, and then asked seriously, "Do you know about yesterday's alarm?" ”

"Don't you know?" Fergtan asked curiously, "You won't fail to hear the alarm that is ringing throughout the city, will you?" ”

"I heard it." Zhou Xin nodded, "We're just curious about what last night's alarm was?" Could it be that the city has been attacked? But didn't I remember you saying before that you don't have any other forces here? ”

"It's not us who have been attacked here." Fergtan shook his head and corrected, "Instead, everything has been attacked. Again, he retorted, "Don't you know?" As soon as he asked the question, he reacted, "Oh, yes, it's normal that you don't know, because you don't have a chip in your head." ”

"All places?" Zhou Xin didn't care about the second half of Fergtan's sentence, all his attention was focused on one word.

"That's right, according to our post-mortem counts. At that time, the attack alarm sounded almost simultaneously in all cities around the world, large and small, even in some remote mountainous areas. Fergtan replied.

"How is that possible?" Zhou Xin asked suspiciously, "Who can launch an attack on cities around the world at the same time?" ”

Shaking his head, Fergtan replied blankly, "I don't know, as far as I know, none of the remnants of the entire world will be able to do this unless we attack ourselves." He laughed, "But how is this possible?" ”

"That's right." Zhou Xin casually agreed, and then he continued to ask, "In other words, you still don't know who attacked you until now?" ”

"I don't know." Fergtan shook his head, "The news of the alarm came to our heads out of nowhere, and then the alarm went off all over the city, and all of us were just organizing resistance under the instructions of the chip. Until now, we haven't figured out who attacked us last night. ”

"Suddenly in your head?" Dart noticed a detail, "That is, the alarm from the chip?" ”

"You'd better elaborate on the specifics." Zhou Xin interrupted Fergtan's answer, "All we heard was sirens and saw all over your streets -- uh -- organizing resistance. I don't know anything else. ”

"Actually, I don't know much more than you." Next, Fogtan detailed his own experience from last night to the crowd:

"In the beginning, I was just sleeping. Suddenly, without warning, an alarm bell sounded in my head, waking me up from my sleep. When I woke up, I was a little dazed and didn't know what was going on, until the alarm sounded all over the city. By the time I came to my senses, the chip in my brain had already begun to remind me to prepare me to resist the invasion. So, I ran out into the street with my weapon as instructed in my head, and then followed the location indicated by the chip to the predetermined place of resistance. However, just as I arrived at my intended location, the alarm that had been in my head suddenly disappeared. Soon after, the chip sent a signal that the alarm was disarmed, so we went straight home after receiving this signal. ”

"Didn't anyone explain to you why the alarm was lifted?" After Fergtan finished speaking, Zhou Xin asked.

"Yes, but the explanation is not very clear." Fergtan nodded, "The message given on the chip is 'Problem solved, alarm lifted'. After this message is played three times in a row, the chip no longer actively sends messages to our brains. ”

"In other words, it was just the chip sending you alerts and notifications from start to finish, and no one of them had seen the attack with their own eyes, did they?" Zhou Xin then confirmed.

"Someone should see it." Fergtan hesitated for a moment, then replied uncertainly, "Otherwise, how did the alarm come from?" ”

This answer allowed Zhou Xin to confirm some of his thoughts last night, and he frowned thoughtfully and said to himself, "But if that's all, some details of the problem still can't be determined." ”

"Oh, yes." At this time, Fergtan suddenly remembered, "Although the chip did not clearly indicate who attacked us, it did point us in the direction of the attack. ”

"Which side is the direction of the attack?" Dart then asked.

Fergtan didn't answer, just pointed upward.

Seeing his movements, everyone present was shocked, and Zhou Xin blurted out directly, "You mean the attack came from the air?" ”

Fergtan shook his head blankly, "Not in the sky to be exact, the position given by the chip is above our heads." ”

"What's the difference, isn't it heaven above your head?" Ralph asked, puzzled.

At this time, Zhou Xin seemed to understand a little, and he asked again, "You mean, the location of the attack given by the chip is not far above your head. ”

This time, Fergtan nodded, "That's the only thing about the whole thing that makes me wonder. It stands to reason that if the attack was on top of our heads, I would have seen it by looking up. But during the whole process, whenever I looked up, I never saw any sign of attack......"
