Chapter 856: A Foreign Country

After several unsuccessful attempts, Vadim had to stand still and take a fresh look at this strange place.

After several minutes of observation, he realized that the problem was not the door, that there was no "air wall" in the real world, and in those few minutes, he had seen people leave the high-end apartment.

It was his inner thoughts that stopped him from acting.

Every time he tries to re-enter the fancy apartment, a completely different thought comes to mind, and at that moment it seems as if even the body no longer belongs to him.

"What the hell is this ......"

Vadim muttered to himself.

This indescribable change caused him to fall from heaven to mortal earth, and after completing the "Overload Type IV", he once felt that he had surpassed humans and reached the level of gods, but at this moment, the fear of the unknown filled his heart.

He couldn't attack a non-existent enemy, and even if he activated Overload Type IV and stopped time for a while, he couldn't set foot in the high-end apartment building.

The time limit for the "Blue Eyes" company is getting closer and closer, and the head of security at Chloe Pictures is his last hope.

"You're in some trouble."

The sudden echo in his head startled Vadim, and he was stunned for a moment before he realized that it was the voice of "blue eyes".

However, after thinking about it carefully, it is relieved that military technology has implanted such a valuable operating system into his brain, which means that he is now the focus of military science and technology, and his words and deeds are probably monitored by the company.

Vadim froze and asked, "Are you doing this?" The head of security at Chloe Films, he probably knows where the people you want are. ”

He guessed that the reason why he couldn't set foot in the high-end apartment building again for half a step might also be the manipulation of military technology, after all, after implanting the "Overload Type IV", he didn't even have a brain.

The Blue-Eyed company man maintained his riddler-like style, and instead of answering Vadim's question, he said, "Think about it, how did you leave his home and get here?" ”

"How do I know ......"

Vadim's complaints came to an abrupt end.

Shattered memories filled a void in his brain, allowing him to see what had happened to the head of security after he lunged on his wife.

There was no expected battle, and there was no sudden strong enemy, and the two of them just fell to the ground under the effect of inertia.

But what happened next made his eyes widen in disbelief.

Seeing that he had done nothing in the memory fragments, and that the head of security had not answered any of his questions, Vadim approached the two of them as if he was enchanted, and after carefully confirming that they were in a state of falling to the ground and would not get up again for a short time, he left the head of security with a cold snort.

Before leaving, he politely opened the door for them.

Although the memory fragment maintained a cold and killer expression until he left, what he did made Vadim's blood surge, and even his breathing became disordered.

This had to give him an idea.

Could it be that his behavior at the head of security's house was so bizarre and mentally retarded that his brain protectively deleted those clips?

Or was it that his mysterious operation angered military technology, causing the technicians to delete part of his memory overnight?

When the hard facts were laid out in front of him, Vadim didn't even know how to explain his actions.

And he can clearly sense that this "retarded" behavior is still going on, and another thought that comes to his mind prevents him from doing it, so that he can no longer return to the high-end apartment building, and at this moment he can only be as incompetent and furious as the RPG players who are blocked from the mission after triggering the plot, only to realize that they have missed out on important game items.

"I-"

"The rules of the city have been rewritten."

The Blue-Eyed Company interrupted him, or he seemed to have infiltrated Vadim's thoughts from the start, and it didn't take much to say that the Company would know what their "guinea pig" was thinking.

If it weren't for the dusty memories that Vadim's experience evokes, he probably wouldn't have penetrated into the other person's brain to communicate with him.

"When one side in the battle admits defeat from the bottom of its heart and is in a state of falling to the ground, it means that the battle is over, and the victors should maintain their demeanor and calmly take the fruits of victory."

"Rules? What rules? ”

Vadim's brow furrowed at the inexplicable words, "You mean I fell asleep at some point and am in the middle of a game world now?" ”

Vadim felt that only the absurd and illogical dream world could explain what was happening to him at the moment.

Doesn't that mean that

The "blue-eyed" company people that exist in his mind are also part of the dream?

He had long seen that these high-ranking company people were not pleasing to the eye, and he couldn't express his dissatisfaction in the real world, but if it was a dream......

"It's the real world."

An indifferent but emotionless voice interrupted Vadim's thoughts, "If you don't want me to shut down your operating system, swallow these words back in your stomach forever, and don't make an example." ”

His heart was racing, and the paralyzing sensation of the electricity made Vadim barely able to stand still.

His feet went limp, and he was half-kneeling on the ground.

These negative feelings were much more real than the dream, and there was no sign of him waking up from the nightmare.

This is the company's punishment for him.

"It was just a small misunderstanding, I just saw that the atmosphere was too tense, and I wanted to liven up the atmosphere."

Despite being in a state of near-humiliation, Vadim had to apologize with a smile on his face, a false smile on his face, and a clenched fist on the ground that represented his state of mind at the moment.

He accepted the status of "guinea pig", which meant that he was destined to have no human rights in front of the company, and could not be recognized and respected by the company's top management.

"It's psionic energy that traps you."

"Psionic ...... You mean jamming psionic powers? I'm being targeted by a disrupting psychic person? ”

After so many years in the Fourth District, psionics are no strangers to Vadim, and many rescuers under Kolo Films are psionics, and he has heard that some powerful disruptive psionics can infiltrate people's brains and control their behavior.

They can manipulate their target to walk up to the rooftop and jump from above, easily disguising the incident as a suicide case.

Vadim has to deal with the dirty work for Kolo Pictures all year round, so he naturally envies this ability.

This is much more efficient than car bombs and fire concealment.

"It's different from what you know to be psionics, and no psionic has any eyes on you."

"Then why ......"

"As I said earlier, one of the rules of this city has been changed, and anyone in the battle will enjoy the changes it brings."

The "Blue Eyed" company people don't like to repeat what they have said, especially if it's such an easy to understand part, and while explaining, he can't help but feel that Vadim's intelligence level is really worrying, or that this is a common problem of human beings.

Stupid and self-righteous, Vadim fits his stereotype of humanity perfectly.

But apparently, the stupid human brain was still blank, and he didn't seem to understand that if the person who changed the rules showed even the slightest malice towards him, then their conversation at this moment would not be possible.

However, the sudden change in the rules also left them with something.

"Stand up and look at that door."

The "blue-eyed" company man in his head gave Vadim a new order.

Vadim clenched his teeth, but he still followed the other party's orders, and he endured the paralysis and muddy feeling to prop himself up.

He guessed that the other party was referring to the security door of a high-end apartment building.

Now it was tightly closed, and Vadim had been trying to break through the closed security door for a long time.

If you say it, no one will believe that the gods who are above humans and have completed their "final evolution" are blocked by the security door in the community.

"Now, hit it as fast as you can."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What? ”

"Don't make me repeat it a second time."

Despite all the doubts in his heart, Vadim still put on a running stance, and at the moment he took his steps, he even activated the "Overload Type IV".

This is a well-known high-end community in the fourth district, and the security doors are all high-end goods, and no fool will use his body to get along with the company's security door.

Vadim closed his eyes, ready to be knocked back.

He grew faster and faster until he made a close contact with the security door.

His body did not bounce back as expected, and after the darkness, he felt as if he had crossed a certain threshold, and when Vadim opened his eyes again, the harsh sunlight sprinkled on his face, and he immediately steadied himself, his feet had already stepped on the edge of the road, and a sports car sped in front of him.

The constant flow of vehicles and the crowds of people that came and went made him stunned.

He was sure it was late at night before he took the step, and he was in front of a high-end apartment building.

And now, no longer an apartment complex behind him, he was in a strange but familiar street, and he always felt that he had seen this road somewhere, and the walls on both sides of the road were very familiar.

Vadim stopped on the side of the street and looked at the wall for a long time.

Eventually, he came up with an absurd idea.

This is the 4th arrondissement.

The difference is that the walls filled with postmodern punk-style graffiti have disappeared in favor of patterns of unknown meaning that evoke a sense of sacredness.

The dress style of pedestrians has also changed.

Instead of tight leather or plastic clothing, or the "trendy outfits" that are about to be exposed, the people here are much more conservative in their dress, and many clergy can be seen among the passers-by, who find similar patterns on the walls on the nun and holy robes.

"You're going there."

It looks like the fourth sector in the alternate world of the movie, and only the orders of the "Blue Eye" company still maintain the style of the original world.

Immediately afterward, the conversation that existed in Vadim's mind was unilaterally terminated.

Vadim quickly found the location of his "mission" - a building in the best part of the city, which had replaced the Kolo Film Building, and it was different from any building he had ever seen, and it looked like a fusion of religious architecture and modern technology, so much so that he didn't know how to describe the conspicuous and imposing buildings in the distance.

In addition to this, he also discovered something unusual.

For example, passers-by automatically ignore his presence.

Vadim seemed to vaguely understand something, and he followed the clergy he could meet along the way, and hurried in the direction of the church-like building.

For the fourth arrondissement of the "parallel world", it looks like a day of great significance.

People spontaneously gathered in the area where the church-style building was located, and before the church-like building, there was also an area with an area similar to the Kolo Film Cultural Plaza, where the posters for movies and programs were replaced with various church brochures.

The crowd didn't stop Vadim from moving forward, the crowd seemed to be just a projection of another world, and he easily passed through the people who stood in his way, and when he reached the front of the line, he was finally able to see the holograms that had replaced the movie's propaganda.

The images made Vadim stop, and he didn't dare to take half a step forward.

He saw the true gods.

Although his wisdom told him that everything he saw at the moment was illusory, and that he had never been a devout believer, the unprecedented sense of sacredness still enveloped him, and for a time made him want to open his heart and confess his sins and sins to those who were on high above.

The people here have given some different names to the gods they worship.

"Echoes of the Upper World".

Devout believers can hear the whispers of the upper world, and even though they have never seen the beings of the echoing source, they still complete their image through their devout hearts and imaginations.

Facing the crowd was an old man in holy clothes.

Archbishop.

For some unknown reason, Vadim understood the identity of the old man.

This gray-haired old man is the agent of the reverberations of the upper world, and at this moment, he is about to convey an exciting news to everyone present.

A war is about to start.

However, they will eventually be the victorious side.

For it was not so long ago that the archbishop listened to guidance from the upper world in his meditations.

The guide conveyed to him a very important message:

The Son is about to come into the world.

He will lead everyone to an end to these chaotic and turbulent times.

What awaits them ahead is a brighter future.

The small theater of its two hundred and twenty-three:

Saturday of a certain year, a certain month, early in the morning

Song Lan felt like she had been kidnappedβ€”in every sense.

Because during breakfast, Lu Xiang not only restricted his freedom in life, but also said to him, "This is the first time that my dear wife has prepared a loving breakfast for him seriously, can he bear not to finish it?" "That's the kind of thing you say.

Song Lan understands the truth, but his understanding of "love breakfast" still stops at leaving cute emojis with tomato sauce or mayonnaise on slices of bread, but Lu Xiang prepared a whole plate of freshly baked oysters for him.

Now his latest assignment is to eat all the oysters.

The saliva of the night heron not far away was about to flow out, but it was forbidden by the ruthless Lu Xiang to approach the table.

Lu Xiang sat opposite him, his hands folded to support his chin, admiring the process of enjoying his loving breakfast.

"I've been chasing a food-themed drama recently, but I didn't expect that there is so much knowledge and attention to food."

She shared her recent situation with Song Lan as usual.

According to the series, different cuisines carry the rich culture and history of different regions, and at the same time, Lu Xiang realizes his potential.

Maybe she didn't know anything about cooking.

In the use of red dates, wolfberries and other ingredients, she has always been very handy.

This allowed Lu Xiang to find his own direction of development on the road of cooking.

"Honey, have you ever heard of medicinal cuisine?"
