Something pushed the lid open from the inside, and the thing swooped in, and in an instant, a strange image was sketched in the observation of the chain judgment: the head of the humanoid figure was like a model dummy, the material color unique to the structure, the facial features were only outlined, which looked like it was just decoration, and the part above the forehead was dug out of a bowl, and inside were various chips and pipes, which was strange and terrifying, making people feel as if it had been transformed by Frankenstein. Many of the pipes are entangled and act as both cervical and spine, and some extend into the inside of the inlet, making it feel like a marionette.
Most of its skeleton is exposed, and the tattered skin can't hide the clutter within. Except for a humanoid head, the other body parts are like a huge lizard skeleton, and at the same time, it has many fragments attached to it, making it extremely stout. Its vigorous movement caused some parts of its body to scatter, but it did not cause any damage to its integrity.
I don't know what to call such a thing, but I think it's the crazy machine qì mentioned in "plus", its body seems to be put together randomly, and the logical program has been confused, and the model is not in the security network of the ruling bureau at all, it is completely the existence of the construction machine qì born because of its own disorder. In the face of this kind of thing, communication is meaningless, and no one wants to spend a lot of effort adjusting its self-discipline procedures. For search teams in Aboriginal settlements, it is a worthless but particularly difficult existence. It is often unable to move too far from its birthplace, as if it had been restricted when it was first composed.
Without hesitation, I swung the knife-like critical weapon, and the strong vibration spread through the space, and the distorted shape was like a translucent cylinder that shot straight away, enveloping the crazy machine. Its action stops, its inertia no longer exists, and it freezes directly from rapid movement into a picture. Then, the image began to crumble. The structure of the Mad Machine shatters from the tiniest part, turning into a cloud of ash in the blink of an eye.
After that, I cautiously went to the entrance of the cave and observed the situation inside with a chain judgment, and there were many times when there would be a plural number of crazy machines—such times. These crazy machines are actually components of a reconnection system - but that's not the case for me. The entrance to the building and the structure inside resemble a giant cavern, as if someone had deliberately converted the cavern into a base, filled with Authority-style pipelines and equipment. The lights inside have been completely extinguished, and it is not clear from where they were turned on, and even, perhaps, when the construction machine built this place, there were no lamps installed. I picked up Mae and jumped down, and the Swift Sweep Super was on standby. But no traps were triggered, and it seemed that there was no defense here except for the previous madness machine.
I looked through the portable devices in my trench coat and found that most of them had been damaged in the heat of battle, except for the all-metal alloy custom Nokia phone. It's very old, and it's only a feature phone in terms of the system, but it's in the fixed software. It can still meet some trivial needs in daily life and in battle. I turned on my phone's flash to act as a flashlight, although there was a chain of verdicts to scan the environment. But sure enough, it's more customary to use lighting.
Round flares of light swept around, and I soon spotted several strange devices that looked like life support pods, oval in shape with translucent lids, and I went up and looked inside. The first few were empty, except for the last two, one filled with a green liquid that looked greasy and dirty, like wastewater from heavy industry. The other seemed to have something floating in the same liquid. It wasn't very visible to the naked eye, and when it was illuminated, the thing rolled over and sank deep into the wastewater. People can't help but wonder if it is alive.
Although I was a little vigilant, I still didn't break the device. There are a lot of strange things in the Ruling Bureau, and the container that seals these things may be a petri dish, but it is also a restrictive protection measure, and if you destroy the container rashly, you will definitely destroy the contents of the container, but you will cause yourself trouble. Since there were no security measures in this cave since I came in, I didn't want to do anything superfluous.
If you don't do it, you won't die, this truth is common both in novels and stories, and in places full of "mysteries".
I cautiously continued to explore the depths of the cave, and without further difficulty, I found the equipment described by "Plus" for making and storing food. It is unique from the rest of the cave in that it is not only the largest in size, but also has a complete conveyor belt and a circular processing chamber with a diameter of six meters. It had stopped working completely, and I tried to turn on the control board, but no matter how much I fiddled with it, the gauge light never came on. There were some lumps scattered around the floor, and I touched them, and they were hard and rough, in line with the description of this kind of food in "plus", but I didn't want to pick it up and eat it unless I couldn't find something better preserved.
The problem is that if I don't open the hatch, I won't be able to get the food that is well preserved in the storage compartment, and this food machine has completely struck, so I can only find a way to destroy the hatch - I don't know how strong the hatch is, although from the outside, the entire device is made of the structure material, but the structure material also has different strengths, and if you use a knife-like critical weapon, you may destroy the entire device along with it.
At this time, there was a "drip" sound behind me. We turned our heads suddenly, only to see Zhenjiang standing in front of the control platform, I don't know what she did, the instrument light was already on. At this time, Mae's posture looked much more normal than before.
She looked up, her eyes were a little more intellectual and sober: "It's been repaired." She said so, but how did it get fixed? I'm a little stunned, but it's better not to delve into this kind of thing, just think that "mystery" is at work. It's rare that Mae can "wake up", and I don't want to talk about such boring topics at all.
"Are you hungry too?" As I asked, the hatch made an unlocking sound, but it seemed to be in disrepair or something, and it couldn't fully open on its own. I had to grab the handle of the hatch with both hands and pull it open with all my might. This food making machine makes a tooth-sour sound.
The lights in the storage compartment lit up, and even the surrounding ten meters were illuminated, and Mae walked towards this side. I checked the inside of the cabin to make sure there was no apparent danger and removed a storage compartment from it. Unfasten the lock with the instructions printed on it.
The boxes were neatly arranged with the same lumps of food that had been scattered on the floor, and there was no difference in color, so it was impossible to tell whether the ones that were scattered on the floor had expired. Looks like compressed food, but. In appearance, it is much harder than normal compressed food. I tried to grab one, it was quite heavy, about three kilograms, and the dark gray surface was printed with some lines, like hardcover chocolate that was several times larger, and I could only bite one corner when I took a bite.
The weight and appearance give the impression that it is really hard to swallow. I watched it for a while. Hand it to Mae: "Taste?" ”
Mae took it, flipped it left and right, stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation, and bit off a corner with a click, as if refusing a biscuit, and chewed it and swallowed it in a few clicks.
"There's no taste." Mae said calmly, and then handed it back.
This time, I couldn't hesitate. Settle your mind. I bit hard where she had bitten before, and it was really hard. It makes me feel that I can easily bite down such a large piece of Zhenjiang, and my teeth are really sharp enough. At least, for me, this food is as hard as a pig's thigh bone. I finally bit a piece, and I had to chew it before I could swallow it. Don't mention the taste, as Mae said. The taste is like chewing wax, but after eating it, I quickly feel full of stomach and my thirst decreases rapidly. Follow this rate of replenishment. Only three mouthfuls a day can solve the problem of food and clothing, and such a whole "energy block" is enough to support the average person for seven days.
I didn't think too much about it, and just lifted the box, and there was space inside to store a total of twelve sticks. I suddenly wanted to bring this food safety back to the repeater trap world and let Hakkei and Sakiya try it too. Although it is difficult to eat, it is a fairly qualified food as a wartime supplement in a hostile environment.
"Do you want more?" I handed the one in my hand to Zhenjiang, she shook her head, I was not reluctant, I grinded my teeth, and continued to gnaw. I found that although this food can satisfy hunger and thirst, it does not seem to be overwhelmed. The food is very novel, so even if it tastes like chewing wax, I want to try how much I can eat. Perhaps, the energy released by this kind of food is different from that of ordinary food, which will cause this phenomenon of not being able to eat.
Now that I've found food, I'm not going to stay here long. After closing the storage bin, head towards the cave exit. However, as soon as he approached the exit, there was a tremor on the ground, followed by the sound of an explosion, and a wave of air rushed into the mouth of the cave, blowing the cave whirring, and some pipes above the head broke and drooped down.
It's unusual, and I haven't seen any movement in a long time, so it's a good thing to be reluctant. It sounded like the sound of battle, and Mae and I glanced at each other, and quickly crawled out of the cave to find the source of the movement—the light and shadow from the explosion stood out in the ruined capital, which had remained dead silent. There was an offline machine that had fallen from a higher place than where we were, the exterior of the huge container had been twisted and broken in many places, and there were quite a few people fighting on the exposed internal structure.
"It's the search party." I say. The fighters wore heavy hazmat suits in the style of the Gathering Area, but they weren't bulky, and their boots had power-ups that allowed them to latch on and slide in offline machines with an angle of more than forty-five degrees. Some are wielding spears, while others are using imitations of knife-like critical weapons, and their opponents are two elemental beings and four full-fledged wizards.
It's really nowhere to find iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it. I thought as I nibbled on the energy block. Whichever side is caught, there should be a way to find clues to the Doomsday Shinrikyo base. Of course, I'd rather take out those two primal beings than deal with the natives. In any case, the natives provided me with some help at the beginning, and although I did not do things properly, and probably became their target, but, in comparison, it was still the Doomsday Shinrikyo that was the priority enemy.
"A-Jiang, where is the personality preservation device in you?" Their appearance reminded me of the situation when Mae destroyed the electronic demon.
"Hmm." Mae responded.
"Does that thing work?" I asked.
"Yes." Mae replied succinctly.
"How do you use it?" I asked again.
"Eat it." Mae's answer was still concise and terrifying. I never thought of such an answer.
"Eat?" I couldn't help but repeat it.
"Eat it." Mae nodded and said, "I've already eaten it, it's delicious." ”
“…… What to do with Hakkei and Sakiya? "I don't object to Mae's approach, she is closer to the "virus" than me in terms of the preservation of sex, in the sense of how to deal with the personality preservation device. It's right to leave it to her. But now that I know the function of the personality preservation device, I still can't help but worry about Sakuya and Hakkei, how many personality preservation devices can there be in the apocalyptic fantasy?
"Don't worry, Achuan." Mae just smiled slightly, stroking my brow. It's like an illusion. Her eyes seemed to change slightly back to her nervous state, and she murmured in a trance:
"The goal is to go down the river to find the key.
If you go down the river to the end, you will eventually reach the place where the "li" is.
Look for the shore for two here.
Here lies the key to the ideal town.
Whoever holds the key, follow the following instructions and set off for the Ideal Village.
On the first night, the living sacrifice chosen by the key was offered.
On the second night, the rest of the people tore apart the two people who were close together.
On the third night, O remnant, praise my noble name.
On the fourth night, he was beheaded.
Fifth night. Kill him by gouging out his chest.
On the sixth night, he was killed by gouging out his belly.
On the seventh night, he slashed his knees.
On the eighth night, he was killed.
On the ninth night, the witch revives, and no one survives.
On the tenth night, the journey ends and ends in the ideal land.
Sing my praises. I will give four treasures.
One piece revives the souls of all the dead.
A revival of a once dead love.
One piece that makes the witch sleep forever.
One may you sleep peacefully. ”
I don't think it's the first time I've heard such words, but I can't remember when I heard them. That sense of contradiction, both familiar and unfamiliar, is full of a creepy malice, making people feel that this is a curse. However, such a feeling can be proven. It should come from "Jiang", although the flavor of these words and phrases that Mae said this time is not the same as what Tomie and Mae once said, which is full of something similar to a sense of prophecy. However, it is more in line with my feelings about "Jiang". If you study these contents carefully, you can draw all kinds of ominous conclusions, but what kind of profound meaning they have is completely unpredictable. I don't want to apply what I know to these phrases, even though the content of these phrases is more straightforward and easier to subsize into situations than in the past—it feels more like Doomsday Shinriky.
Speaking of which, the identities of Mae, Tomie, and Zuo Jiang in the Doomsday Illusion are the "final weapons" of the Doomsday Shinrikyo Sect, and, judging from the number, they all give people the feeling of "the ultimate final weapon", and even the various anomalies caused by her are full of many ominous deep meanings.
The number "999", in occultism, is often a substitute for "666", a reversed form, and in many cases, it means "an unformed but doomed malignant end". In the religiously inclined occultism, "13" is the most common ominous, while "666" is more demonic, and it is a very clear reference to the demon king. 999 and 666 are like twins, one symbolizes before the end comes, and the other symbolizes when the end comes.
The profound meaning of these mysteries further verified my conjecture about "river" and "virus". In fact, it also proves the conjecture of color and Dorothy. I hope that 999 will not be flipped into 666, and from this point of view, it is indeed "more unreasonable". From the occult point of view alone, the idea of color and Dorothy is also correct - 999 and 666 are the same, because 666 is the future of 999, and flipping will be inevitable. In the occult, before the number 666 appeared, the ancient occultists would not miss out every symbol associated with "999".
The Doomsday Shinrikyo still fixed the number 999 even when it did not have a sufficient number of its "ultimate weapons", and this alone is enough to be characterized as a "cult" in the occult.
Therefore, as the final weapon of "No. 999", Mae said in a trance, and the words and phrases that seem to be prophetic are full of malice and ominous, which is understandable. However, if we insist that "999" will not become "666", ignoring the malice and ominousness of this content, and not attaching any bad tendencies to these contents, is the most basic requirement.
Therefore, no matter what Tomie, Zuo Jiang and Mae said under what circumstances, and how many situations seemed to fit the content of these words, no matter how big their existence was, the malice and ominousness that could be intuitively felt. I'm still going to stick to what I'm doing. Although, in the eyes of many people, this is as ridiculous as an ostrich burying its head in the ground to avoid danger, full of unreasonable idealism, if even I can't support such an act, how can I say that my goal is "the most perfect happy ending"? I've always thought that at times like these, if you take a step back, you will end up with a flaw.
"Mae?" I called her name. But she had reverted to a state of mental illness, with only the inscription-like words, which kept muttering to her lips, and, as if gradually distorted, into another incomprehensible, utterly incomprehensible whisper. However, at such times, this incomprehensible whisper is more like the true shape of the content of the inscription, making people feel that what can be understood is actually just a false appearance, or content that can only be interpreted one-sidedly based on its own limitations.
I don't bother her anymore. The machine slammed into the complex of buildings a hundred meters away, and the sparks flashed as if they had jumped out of a steelmaking furnace. The force of the crash was completely insufficient to kill the two sides who were fighting, and soon many figures fell from mid-air and quickly slid in the shadows. The offline machine began to explode, and the blooming light dragged out strange and wonderful shadows, among which were the life of the body. They didn't immediately chase the Aboriginal warriors, because they couldn't escape. The wizards of the Doomsday Shinrikyo have blocked all retreats, and the fragments of the buildings that were destroyed by the offline machine have coalesced in a huge gray mist vortex and turned into half-giants, blocking the retreat path of the native warriors.
The appearance of these people, in my feelings, is completely in line with the saying "a coincidence of fate". It was like I thought I needed such a change, and it came. However, in terms of the nature of the apocalyptic illusion, there may be such a thing. The facts seem to tell me that I really don't need to worry about the next step, my path seems hazy, but in fact it has always been clear.
"What a neat stroke of luck."
I chewed a bite of the energy block, stuffed the rest into my pocket, picked up Mae and jumped up, and swept away.
The world slowed down because of my speed, the gray fog and air became extraordinarily thick, whether it was the persecution of physical life, the spell casting of the Cult of Doomsday Shinrito wizards, the uprooting of the halfling giant, or the strain of the aboriginal warriors, it was as if it had been cut off from time. This feeling is one of the most fascinating scenes in "high-speed movement". It means power, it means change, it means victory. Although there are many "mysteries" in this world that can be used for "high-speed movement", I still believe that "unparalleled speed" is one of the strongest, if not the strongest.
I climbed higher than the battlefield in a circle, along the side walls of the complex, and jumped out of the window of a room. There was a tremendous lifting sensation in the heavy air, and I felt like I was gliding without wings. At this moment, I felt as if I had returned to the past, to the night when I was running in the high-rise buildings of the city, and I was the freest elf. Every qiē under his feet has become so small that it seems that he can step over a high wall that he once could not cross in one step.
Looking down at the half-length giant beneath my feet, I raised my sword-like critical weapon aloft in the air.
