Chapter 9: Cyber City
Meanwhile.
Hong Kong Base, Research Laboratory.
This is Newton and Herman's exclusive laboratory, with a blackboard full of theoretical data and mathematical formulas, a mountain of paperwork, and glass jars of various sizes soaked in formalin, the visceral tissues of countless monsters, filled with a strange fishy smell.
Dr. Herman is a cripple with a cane, advocating mathematics, specializing in the content of underwater wormholes, the appearance of monsters, and other important information that he has studied.
Dr. Newton is a bit of a neurotic man and a super monster fan, and his specialty is naturally monsters themselves, and he has studied all aspects of them in depth, and can be said to be one of the most knowledgeable humans in the world.
The two are very good friends, and they are with them almost everywhere.
Herman, who was crackling on the computer, suddenly took off his glasses and pursed his lips, "Newton, ask you something, do you know the monster, alas...... Never mind. ”
"Hey dude, what the hell are you going to say?" Newton was fiddling with a large section of the monster's intestines, his hands covered in some kind of mucus that he didn't know if it was blood or something.
"Synaesthesia," Herman tried to test Newton in order to give Sterk a reply, "you know synaesthesia, right?" ”
Newton stared at him strangely, "Has your brain been taken over by mathematical formulas?" Can I know synaesthesia? ”
"Well, no, that's it, have you ever thought about a situation that is synaesthesia with the brain of a monster." Herman asked intermittently.
Newton was silent, staring at Herman in a daze, his eyes full of consternation.
He looked around, approached Herman, and asked mysteriously, "How did you know I had this idea?!" ”
"Huh?" Herman's mind didn't turn around.
"One day a month ago, I was looking at a part of the monster's brain that was sent by logistics, and suddenly I had a shocking idea, that is, to use a neural docking device to synaesthesia with it and get more information about the monster!" Newton said excitedly, as if he had found someone to confide his secrets.
The Hermans are stupid, can they still hit the right one?
He immediately asked nervously, "So, have you tried it?" ”
Newton shrugged, "Of course not, this is a crazy plan, my brain may not be able to withstand the impact of the monster brain, I'm afraid it will be blown up by a large number of memory pictures~"
He added, "But as long as the connection is disconnected in time, it should not cause irreversible brain damage." ”
Herman could hear the impuldation in Newton's tone, and he pressed his shoulder in a panic and said, "No! You can't do that, you could die, or you might be paralyzed, and I don't want to push you to work in a wheelchair. ”
"I'm glad you didn't give up on me in your fantasies," Newton laughed, suddenly serious again, "Herman, how did you come up with this?" Did you secretly synaesthesia with me while I was sleeping! ”
Herman pondered for a long time, and fell into a hesitation.
He knew this old friend very well, and once that thought was born, it was like a cat's claw scratching the tip of his heart every day.
Sooner or later, Newton will have synaesthesia with the monster brain!
"I'll tell you one thing, a very top-secret secret." Herman looked around and closed the door.
"You've got something to hide from me," Newton said, "but if you do, will you go to jail?" ”
Herman gave him a roll of the eye, "Steck told me, your name can also be added to the classified list." ”
From this point of view, Sterke still values and trusts these two people.
After all, they are considered the intellectual ceiling of the hunter base, and they have indeed made a lot of contributions to the earth indirectly, and they belong to the core group.
So, in order to make Newton realize the seriousness of this matter, Herman told him everything in 1510, from the help of the alien civilization (Chu Xin), the ins and outs of the monster, to the negative impact of synaesthesia with the monster, and Chu Xin's fight with the monster.
Eventually, Sterk arrives, and Newton is stunned to sign the paper confidential document and promise that he will not have synaesthesia with the monster brain.
"But I have a question for me," Newton frowned at Marshal Sterke, "is what Storm Crimson said true, is he a real alien life, isn't it the easiest way to verify it with the monster brain?" ”
Sterke lowered his eyes, "His appearance has no impact on my plan for the time being, it doesn't matter if it's true or not, I only have one purpose, and that is to close the underwater wormhole and make the monster completely disappear from the earth." ”
……
Rushing~
The base is sea-fronted, and the huge and spacious deck is washed daily by the tireless waves.
A red mountain of steel stood by the sea, with dusk above its head and facing the ocean.
After staying in the closed and oppressive room for a long time, Chu Xin inevitably wanted to see the calm scenery outside.
Behind the side across the sea, the continuous high-rise buildings are like undulating mountain peaks, and even though they have been visited many times by monsters, the prosperity of Xianggang is still undiminished.
"I've never been to a place in my previous life, and now I've become the patron saint they worship, tsk, this thing of fate~"
Chu Xin adjusted the pixel multiples of his eyes, and the picture of the coast was quickly presented in his mind at a glance.
The first impression is that it tastes more cyberpunk than ever, especially after the colorful neon lights gradually light up, which is no different from the cyber graphics in many games.
Dirty alleys, mud shelters and bustling buildings.
Civilians from the bottom who are in a hurry and have haggard faces and luxury cars shuttling through the avenue.
Black-robed infidels swarmed their way from under the monster's massive skull to the gloomy underground church where they prayed in the last days.
On the building made of monster bones, a huge billboard scrolls to show the release of the collector's edition mecha figure, and the recent popular king Storm Red is in the first place.
Monster Guilds, Evil Sects, Mercenary Organizations, Tech Companies...... I don't know, I thought it was some kind of real simulation of the apocalyptic game~
This is the impact of this special era, and countless cities that have been landed by monsters have all undergone significant changes.
"Cyber flavor is really rushing."
Chu Xin sighed from the bottom of his heart, today's Xianggang can be called the cyber city of today's world!
Whether it is the external performance or the excavation of the invisible deep vein, it is in line with its setting, but it is also a bit of a wasteland punk atmosphere, forming a strong conflict.
It's a pity that whether it's cyberpunk or wasteland punk, it's best to exist only at the artistic level, and once it falls into reality, it's a real human tragedy.
After the wind was over, Chu Xin returned to the underground base.
The three brothers, who had long wanted to release the holy water, hurriedly ran out, and just after solving the problem, they ran non-stop to report to Sterke, and they were inexplicably busy.
Soon, the news of Storm Crimson going berserk again spread through the mouths of the big goose couple.
Everyone was shocked by Chu Xin's wonderful performance, and couldn't help but think, is it a new way to make the mecha independent in the future?
One of the senior engineers surnamed Shao muttered thoughtfully, "Drone A?" ”
