1778 Urban Matrix
The area of London in the ruins of mayflies is in an unusual state of isolation, and the distance between people is forced to be reduced, and the simple desire to let others know that they are here, and to try to know where others are, is clearly reflected in the various things in this area. Although the www.biquge.info of the pen and the court were unable to communicate face-to-face, and they were unable to distinguish the power of people who were close to each other, and the communication between electronic devices was greatly disturbed, the way of leaving messages that had been handed down since ancient times still worked in this anomalous area.
Gao Chuan knew what kind of state he was, but even with the mystery of Sanxian Island behind him, he still felt the sense of isolation, as if he was obviously a whole, but because of a thin and transparent diaphragm, the whole was divided into two halves. Because it is transparent, I can't agree that this is no longer a whole, and it is so light and thin, as if it can't be noticed in a blink of an eye, so I also feel that this separation is temporary and fragile.
But in any case, as long as this sense of separation exists, Takakawa has to realize that he has "only half" entered this ephemera ruin. And the support of the Three Immortals Island has also declined again because of this layer of non-existent barrier.
In the midst of the sound of battle in which no figure could be seen, Takakawa heard the rustling of electricity - he was not sure where it was going, but his retinal screen was affected by it, just as the effect of high-intensity electromagnetic power on electrical appliances, and his vision was filled with snowflake-like interference from time to time.
The prosthetic body also has a faint feeling, although it is not a smooth operation, but it is not so comfortable.
Although he had observed the entire London area from space, the fact that he had personally experienced the vastness and internal anomalies of the entire London area made Takagawa feel that all that the Doomsday Shinrikyo had done was definitely not just for the purpose of "replacing the battlefield". "Replacement of the battlefield" is the preparation of a more important plan, so that the people of the Doomsday Shinrikyo will definitely go deep into the plan as soon as the battlefield is replaced, so that the chaos in the entire London area, although superficial, will feel within the intensity of what is within their reach.
To put it simply, even though many people have died in the London area by this time, most of those who survive still feel that "the London area is now a place where they can cope with it".
So, even though you can't see anyone else close by, you can regroup psychologically as long as you make sure that you're not alone. And then glow with more courage and confidence to face the current abnormality. Because the ancient method of leaving messages has not been banned, the exchange of information is still going on, so that people will not feel the despair of being smeared in front of them.
Pass on this hope that seems to be able to hold on to others when you can. For a companion on the same battlefield, this is what he can do when there is no way.
But Gao Chuan doesn't think that this is the luck of the people in the current Dunlun area.
Rather, what seemed to be a situation of hope in front of him was, from his point of view, a soil for despair. There is nothing more hopeless than making people aware of the existence of hope, but not actually touching it.
At this moment, the area of London is a basin of heated water for cooking frogs, and if you don't do something more drastic, everyone will drown. Perhaps an overly intense clash of mysterious forces would have a large-scale radiation impact, and vulnerable people would likely die from the impact alone. However, if the current situation continues, the outcome of death will not change in any way.
Takakawa is concerned about the people here, but given the time constraints of the plan itself, he doesn't have the capacity to properly handle the current situation in the area.
Takakawa rearranged his thoughts, and he released the information that he had arrived here, without disguising his name, nor the existence and efforts of the Cosmic Combined Experimental Fleet. He never felt that he could really hide from the eyes of the enemy and carry out the best of the best of the world's tricks, compared to the existence of himself and the Cosmic Joint Experimental Fleet, if he could help these people in the London area psychologically, then he felt that he should do so.
Although there is no evidence of the location where Takakawa arrived, the specific coordinates are in the city of London, but he feels that there is no need to explore the suburbs, and there are many "downward passages" hidden in this ancient city with a long history. However, even with quick sweep and chain judgment, it is not possible to find these channels in the first place.
He left messages in several places, and soon, these messages were discovered by more people and new ones were given in the same way. This method of communication is comparable to the convenience of the telephone in today's London area, because although it is impossible to reach the other person, in fact, the other person is "close to you". This is actually a contact found by people who are fighting in this area. The way of living in this place has changed dramatically in a short period of time, and it makes people feel that this is not the London they are familiar with, but the London of another world.
Obviously, there were sounds of battle everywhere around him, and things that were destroyed by the battle scene and the aftermath of the battle were everywhere, but Takakawa did not encounter any battles of his own. Those combat situations where no human figure can be seen, and can only be recognized by sight, are even more absurd. Although ridiculous, it is not illusory, and no one will think that these battles are fake, including Takakawa.
The data on the changes in matter and motion listed on the retina screen was enough for him to realize how real and intense the movement was in this area.
Under the guidance of the guidance data on the retina screen, Gao Chuan swept to the north of the city, and he tried to search for the places where the battles took place as quickly as possible, but no matter how fierce the fighting was, theoretically there was no special transfer ability for both sides of every battle, but when he arrived at a specific location, he could only look at the traces left after the battle - using chain judgments to trace these traces of activity, he could get a relatively clear direction, and it seemed that as long as he chased down this direction, He was able to catch up with the people who had fought here before, but his intuition stopped Takakawa.
That intuition told Takakawa that the useless, battlefield that belonged to each person was obscured by a mysterious power, and the mystery of this mysterious power was likely to spread from the London area to the entire Mayfly Ruins. The gray fog is both the source of this mystery and the way through which it spreads. This mysterious power that isolates its victims is like a virus, created in London, Earth, and infects the entire ruins of mayflies through a displacement reaction, and may even penetrate deep into the ruins of the Ruling Authority.
Gao Chuan traveled all the way, not only did he not see a human figure, but he didn't even see a non-human figure. These noisy streets and alleys are getting chills down your spinal cord even more. Takakawa had to think, assuming everyone else was fighting, why was he the only one who didn't encounter anything? The environment here is so anomalous that it can give birth to unusual foreign objects, but if they already exist, why do you turn a blind eye to yourself?
Gao Chuan didn't feel that it was because he was too strong, and he was shocked by the other party. At worst, these anomalies are likely to be gathering or gathering - they will of course be detected and attacked in the process, but they may be deliberately avoided, or there may be some way to force them to avoid situations that would cause massive damage, such as encountering a mysterious expert as powerful as themselves, and some other strong resistance. The never-ending battle scene somewhat means that the strength of both sides of the battle is at a balance point that is enough to make the battle situation anxious.
In an environment full of gray fog, the frequency of anomalies, and the rapid growth of anomalous objects are taken for granted - assuming that their average strength is beyond what the people of London can resist, then the current "scorching situation" is itself a palpitating anomaly.
Takakawa couldn't observe a more specific situation and couldn't verify his conjecture, but when he realized that something was wrong, he suddenly saw a hallucination in an instant. In a moment, he could always see the silhouette of smoke flowing down the wind, and at every intersection, these things suddenly dispersed in all directions. Streets and alleys are like lines, the contours of smoke that appear in these illusions are like electricity, and intersections are like nodes. This dynamic gives a sense of stability and balance.
For others, hallucinations may be just hallucinations, but for Takakawa, hallucinations are often a suggestion, and moreover, a suggestion that is not confined to the inner part of the apocalyptic illusion, and its origins can even be traced back to the reality of the hospital. But whether understood from the perspective of the apocalyptic illusion or the reality of the hospital, it must be reminding itself that something real is happening, or has already happened.
The hallucination at the moment was like this, and Takakawa felt a sense of urgency again. This sense of steady, balanced, and rhythmic rhythm led him to think that the hint behind it was something planned.
Fighting, Nodals, Flows, Contagion, Fighting, Scorching...... Words that could describe what he had seen and heard in this area of London eventually condensed in Takakawa's mind into an extremely familiar word that he knew how terrifying it was: sacrifice.
With NOGs stationed on Earth, even the Doomsday Shinrikyo cult could not have unwittingly turned the entire London area into a sacrificial site under the nose of the cybersphere. Therefore, this change in depth must have started after the completion of battlefield replacement.
However, although it felt like a sacrificial ceremony, Takakawa was not sure that the center of gravity of this ceremony must be in the city of London.
Takakawa stopped abruptly, and in front of him was an old telephone booth - he had been in London for some time, but he had never seen such an old model, as if it were something left over from the last century. In the thick gray haze, it was as if it had come out of a yellowed black-and-white photograph. Its uniqueness is striking even in the unusually large city of London. Because of this, Gao Chuan stopped, he felt that something was calling him.
Takakawa paused, then walked towards the old phone booth. Nothing special happened, and he tried to open the door to the phone booth, and the rusty lock fell from the side of the door and smashed against the metal floor, making a screeching sound, but even then, it didn't attract anything out of the ordinary. The old phone booth was also housed with an old turntable phone, and the receiver fell off the shelf, but he didn't do anything.
Seems like a reminder. Gao Chuan couldn't help but think. As soon as the earpiece connected by a single cable hits the phone, the lid of the microphone part is knocked open, and a note floats out of it.
Takakawa held the note, on which his familiar mark appeared.
"Black Nest ......" Gao Chuan muttered, he would never admit his mistake. Although the black nest of the Doomsday Fantasy has not yet grown up this time, but, like the logo of the Internet Ball, no matter which Doomsday Fantasy is in, the black nest mark that Takakawa has seen looks like this. At the same time, from the perspective of the unique organizational composition and membership structure of the Black Nest, there is often only one person who can use this logo and will use this logo.
"Is Father Sissen here too? This address ......"
Although it was a bit sudden, it was not unexpected, before Gao Chuan felt that the black nest would not be inactive in the current situation, and he also felt that they would still be like Gao Chuan's memories in the past, and make a move at an unexpected and critical time. Whether it's true or not, Takakawa decided to take a look, maybe the current Black Nest can be a help, from the perspective of mystery and potential, if the Black Nest really appears in this place, then, they should have the means to avoid the current anomaly in the London area.
Moreover, since they have gone so far into this area, they must have a lot of information, and with the identity of Father Sissen behind the scenes, perhaps, when they really meet him, they will be able to hear from him about the Doomsday Shinrikyo operation.
Gao Chuan stuffed the note in his pocket, turned around and stepped out of the phone booth, and in front of his eyes, the scene changed abruptly at this moment. The scenery of the city faded away, like the sea breeze blowing through the sand and blowing away the gravel, and a pipe wider than the largest street in London appeared in front of Gao Chuan. In the depths of the darkness, there was an unexplained murmur, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a human voice or not.
However, Takakawa intuitively felt that this pipe was leading "below" the city of London. In other words, the pipe's anomaly suggests that it could penetrate the sewer area of the City of London, deep into the ruins of the Mayfly, and then into the ruins of the Governing Authority.
