Chapter 44: The Living

Lie Yang didn't have any emotional fluctuations when he heard that someone was coming to liberate the earthlings, not because he didn't want the earth to change, but usually these liberators didn't have any follow-up plans at all, they just blindly wanted to destroy the existing earth management structure, and self-righteously wanted the earthlings to gain freedom in their eyes.

In order to allow the earth's environment to have enough self-renewal speed, the earthlings were concentrated in three dormant cities to hibernate, after hundreds of years of natural changes, in addition to the heavenly savage area outside the dormant city, there is no monitoring center on the entire planet, how can 20 billion people live when they are released? Just making the medicine needed by the dormant people took enough time to kill a large number of people, and even medicine was not the most scarce thing at that time. If you want to liberate one or two people who have been designated, you can throw them directly to the Paradise Zone and let them play the savior game.

Given the task, he boarded the flying car on the balcony and was soon transported to the building in the middle of the dormant city.

This is the only building in the city with an antique giant propaganda screen on the top, and the function is naturally not the same as other buildings, it also has a computer room, a factory, and a control center.

Stepping down from the flying car and walking into the building, the lights in the command center were already on.

This floor is very empty, and if you don't know that this is the command center, it looks like a giant exhibition hall.

"I'm just waiting?" Lieyang asked directly in the helmet.

"Ah, I forgot you weren't here." The sound of snow sounded, and the central area of the control center rose from the ground a combat conference table and a circle of chairs.

Lie Sun frowned and thought about the word "forget" and walked over to the conference table.

I looked at it, found a seat and touched it twice on the table, the light structure keyboard popped up on the table, and with a bang, an image of the earth was projected in the center of the conference table, and there was a red dot at a distance, which was the ship of the liberation organization.

The reason why he was so familiar with the operation method was because this combat conference table was the same as the one in the Gold Tactical Simulation Center, and even the instructions were the same.

Not long after he sat down, a partition rose around the tactical table, turning this piece into a room, and this change attracted the scorching sun, finding the door and leaving the tactical room, where a large pile of things was rising from the floor. In general, the front of the tactical room is in the direction of the door, the front is all information collection and transmission equipment, and the back is all kinds of shelves and cabinets, including shelves for robots and cabinets for weapons.

After thinking about it, it was the first time I saw other awakened people outside, and if he used himself as a reference, it was hard to guarantee that the other awakened people would not be a little strange, and it was better to hold a weapon on his body. But when I walked to the weapon cabinet, I found that it couldn't be opened.

"Is it empty?" He asked in his own words.

"No, given your character, I judge that now is not the time for you to have weapons."

Sure enough, Lieyang nodded.

Snow's voice continued, "Make sure things go smoothly at the highest priority, but don't let the Awakened hurt each other. In order to comply with multiple rules at the same time, you have a tranquilizer array firing feature in your helmet, which requires you to calm down other Awoken if the situation worsens. ”

After receiving the explanation, Lieyang changed the mode of the inner panel of the helmet, and saw that the "loading" item of the tranquilizer gun inside was indeed not empty, so he settled down and left the weapons cabinets placed in rows and walked around the control center.

In fact, almost all of the awakened have mental illness, and the cause is mostly caused by multiple memories, and Lieyang is also one of them, but his self-control is very high, and there are no obvious characteristics and emotional changes.

Due to the relationship between management mechanisms and risks, there are no living spiritual healers on earth. Mental illness is very special, there is no human therapist of the same kind, the cure rate is basically zero, not to mention that the time for the awakened to go offline is very limited, not only because of money, but also because the health of dormant people does not allow them to live in the existing earth environment for too long, so no one will waste time doing treatment that cannot see the results.

Compared to the mental illness that every Awakened person has, it seems stranger that Snow has the most peculiar attitude towards the Burning Sun, but the reason is simple - he is already the oldest Awakened person on Earth who is already qualified.

By the way, the management mechanism of the Awakened.

Earthlings do have few human rights when they act as NPCs in the second world, but once they wake up (realize that the second world is a false world and find the specified evidence), they will restore all their human rights, but at the same time, they will take on a lot of obligations. Obligations such as protecting the physical security of the regulators outside, scavenging resources in the second world to ensure the overall good of the planet, that is, for the welfare of fellow citizens.

In terms of human rights, due to the incompatibility between the health status of dormant people and the existing global environment, the regulators have come up with more materials and production lines to maintain the health of the individual awakened people, which conflicts with the second rule (improving the global environment), and in many cases it is impossible to exercise rights. The obligation aspect is even more heavy, especially in the second world, for example, Pan Wen in it fights around like a murderer, and the ultimate goal is only some clean nuclear fuel in the real world, or other materials that can only be produced because of a lot of pollution.

The almost impossible to exercise rights, heavy obligations, and harsh environment have caused the vast majority of awakened people to choose to emigrate after one or two offline visits, and immigration is also an important manifestation of the awakening people's ability to retain all their human rights. Of course, when you go to other districts, you have to follow the rules of other districts, and you can be a player or a nomad in the second world on Mars; Serving the scientific and technological progress of mankind on the moon is the first task; Europa, on the other hand, is mainly responsible for human evolution, as well as various pre-research on the threats and dilemmas that may be encountered by colonization outside the solar system.

A guy like Lieyang, who hasn't thought about immigration at all since he woke up, can be regarded as a miracle. Whether it is the time without contradiction in contact, the control of his mental state on weekdays, or the logical judgment of interests, Lieyang is obviously the first consideration among the awakened, so Xue will keep the non-lethal weapon on his combat uniform.

An hour later, the second Awoken arrived at the control center.

Judging by her posture, she turned out to be a woman! It's a pity that the combat helmet uses a radiation shield, which looks golden and opaque from the outside, and it is impossible to know the appearance of the other party.

There was no introduction, not even a handshake, the other Awakened just stood at a distance, nodding to Blazing Sun, and he did the same.

Looking at the side of the panel, it shows that the target is 3.5 meters away, which is very good, and everyone is safe at this distance.

Lieyang thought so, and the female awakened person on the other side actually thought the same.

Coming out of the second world like a paradise for human beings, I found that the world was controlled by machines, and there were 20 billion compatriots in a sealed state, even if human rights were kept, there was no real danger, and the awakened still would not have any sense of security, and if the woman on the other side was newly awakened, she would definitely wonder if there was a machine in the mask. However, to be selected by the snow to carry out the mission, this woman cannot be a novice.

Even if she said hello, the woman went to visit the control center by herself, and Lieyang didn't care, hanging behind the woman for more than ten meters and moving slowly. Although he was old enough, it was the first time he had seen a living awakened person, and it was impossible to say that he didn't care at all.

During the visit, the woman turned her head several times to look at the sun, but in the end, neither of them formed an exchange, and it seemed that they only repeatedly confirmed the safe distance.

Over the next hour, two more Awakened Ones arrived, both men. The process of contact is similar, or there is no contact between the four people.

"Attention Insiders, please note that the air purification procedure is about to be carried out, please bring an oxygen helmet to the nearest support point within two minutes, please do not panic if there may be a temporary discomfort during the purification."

The sound of the radio sounded throughout the control center, indicating that the people had arrived.

All four were wearing full-coverage combat suits and were unaware of the change in the composition of the air outside, but after a few minutes, the internal panel showed a significant decrease in air pressure, accompanied by moderate wind speeds.

The state lasted for five minutes, and when the air pressure returned to normal, the figure of a woman was projected on the side of the battle room, which was naturally the projection of the supervisor.

"Guys, you can take off your helmets and see if the ones in front of you are machines."

Seeing that the three of them didn't move, Lieyang took the lead in taking off his helmets, letting the three of them see their shiny bald heads, and took a deep breath by the way.

Some people took the lead, and the other three did the same, all of them Wu Ke - no, bald.

……

The scene was very cold, and the four of them didn't seem to be interested in introducing themselves or anything first, but what was helping them out was an optical projection that was not human at all.

"Maybe you should call each other in the order you entered."

It's been too long, the earthlings no longer have names, only a string of numbers that represent their identities, and Lieyang is just a custom name, and there is no official efficiency, and among the four people present, not everyone has time to think about the name, after all, it takes a lot of time just to re-understand the whole world after awakening.

"Then I'm number one, and I'm glad we're not all men."

Lieyang knew that Xue intended to make him the captain to ensure the reliability of the operation, and when he encountered the enthusiasm of the liberation organization, some awakened people would probably not be able to take care of the safety of 20 billion compatriots.

"I'm number two." The woman looks good, but unfortunately she is not lightly ill, and she has no feminine demeanor at all.

"It's nice to meet other people, and hopefully it won't be another dream." Number Three said.

But No. 4 was very speechless, and after the three of them spoke, No. 4, the largest guy among the four, actually shed tears and sighed intermittently: "Finally...... ...... by me See...... See the living! ”

Facing the three patients, Lie Yang felt that the topic could not go on, and looked at the projection of snow.

"Next, the four of you need to regain your physical vitality as soon as possible, either by yourself or by the machine. If you want to do it yourself, please go to the support point to find medicine, and if you want to have a nursing robot service, please go to the infirmary. ”

Lieyang didn't think about it at all, waited for Xue to finish the arrangement, and walked directly to the support point not far away with his helmet, and the other three were a little late, but the choice was the same. It's just that No. 2 and No. 3 didn't follow the scorching sun, but went to a support point in other directions, and No. 4 wiped away his tears and looked left and right, and finally separated.

Desperately lacking in trust, Lieyang made a mental definition, opened the medicine cabinet at the support point, and found the syringe and vitality potion.
