258 The leader is a puppet
The crowd closed the door again and waited patiently for a few minutes. If these people really had the ability to escape the sarcophagus, they should have used it a long time ago, and it turned out that they were only struggling helplessly.
Mo Xun then asked, "Why are you fleeing here?" ”
His voice was full of majesty, and the arrogant tone of the superiors, like those who had just returned from a hunt on a cruise ship.
Although Lily has never clearly explained what the Hunter is, everyone can deduce that it is a being that is above the ordinary members. Maybe it's Clover's law enforcement team, or maybe it's just a high-ranking member of Clover, who takes the common Chosen One as prey and clears out a sufficient number of people through the knockout round.
This is probably why the mutant catastrophe ended so quickly. Mutated flora and fauna have killed the lonely chosen ones, and some may have died from hunting by the Clover Order.
One of the sarcophagi replied nervously, "I'm sorry sir, we were only temporarily bewitched, we are willing to return to work, please spare your life." ”
Mo Xun snorted coldly: "There are no living people on the cruise ship anymore, do you really want to go?" ”
Another voice in the sarcophagus snapped: "They're all liars, let's not trust them anymore." They tricked us in just to kill, and if it's useless, we'll all be killed. ”
"Sounds like you don't want to go back to work?" Mo Xun's voice became even colder.
The third man in the sarcophagus spoke, apparently calmer than the other two, and explained aloud: "You must not know that there is chaos in the base. The program has been hacked, maybe it is DK's people, or it may be the special combat team of country Z, they have already arrived. We will all die at the bottom of the sea if we continue here, and we will only survive if we flee to the surface. ”
With the speeches of these people, Mo Xun has identified this person who can talk. He gestured to Yu Xiaohua.
Yu Xiaohua immediately cut the sarcophagus into two parts, and pressed the other two panicked people directly into a smaller space, and soon they were suffocated by lack of oxygen and lost consciousness.
The person who was separated understood that the other party wanted to be questioned alone, and said more cautiously: "Don't kill me, I will tell you a secret that none of them know." ”
"Is the secret that the system here has awakened to self-consciousness and is deliberately slaughtering humans?" Mo Xun doesn't go around in circles.
The person in the sarcophagus obviously didn't expect his hole cards to be overturned so quickly, but he still stubbornly explained: "Someone in the upper echelons of Clover has covered up this secret, could it be you?" If this continues, it will not only be the Chosen One who will die, but the human world will also completely collapse. ”
"Oh, tell me your reasoning."
The man said in a solemn tone: "Although I am only a low-level operator, I was also a genius programmer in Ozhou back then, and since the discovery of the submarine pyramid, I have been deeply involved in the construction of the intelligent control system of this base." I have a lot of opportunities to move up the ranks, but I don't like the hedonistic life of the upper class, and I want to build a real new world. ”
"It's a great ideal, that's what everyone who comes here thinks."
"No, that's not the case. You hypocritical liars! Silly X that was taken advantage of! The man simply let go, turning the pent-up anger in his heart into impassioned words, "You recruited the Chosen One under the banner of building a new world, and the selection was very strict at the beginning, and those who rose to the higher ranks were indeed serving everyone.
However, later the resources became scarcer, the ordinary people and slaves could not bear the torture and died in large numbers, and the lower classes had to replace those tedious labor, and all the balance was broken. If it's just this kind of exploitation between human beings, it's good to be able to escalate by fighting with ability. But even the highest-ranking base leader is just a puppet. ”
"The leader is also a puppet?" Mo Xun's voice added a little more doubt.
"Hehe, the leader is also a human, no matter how high his ability is, what if he has all kinds of special items. His initial status was given to him by Clover, who never appeared in person when Clover gave him orders. Do you know why? Because the supremacy of the four-leaf clover is not in the hands of humans! ”
Talking about this, Mo Xun has roughly sorted out the situation. Next, you can pause the verbal torture and go straight to the useful things on these people.
The moment he got these people out of the sarcophagus, Mo Xun gave them all a "loose bone" treatment to ensure that even if they turned into zombies, they would lose their mobility.
Qi Qing searched the belongings on these people, but unfortunately there were no special items. The men wore uniform gray-blue uniforms and wore four-leaf clover signs with the words "Fourth Order" written on them, as well as numbers. The clothes themselves are a lot dirty, the pockets are empty, the face is tired, and the nutritional status is very poor, which is very in line with the state of the low-level coolies.
They didn't have any weapons, so they ran all the way to this room.
Is the management in the base already so chaotic, or did the three have some kind of ability that escaped surveillance and were lucky enough to get here?
Through detection, the signs of these three people are embedded with complex chips, which should be the "passes" and identification cards in the base.
Mo Xun took away the sign and connected it to the display screen that looked like it was dead.
The display briefly came to life, revealing the information inside the three signs. The information includes the names of the three men, their status in the organization, and their ability type and level. All three of them have only level 3 abilities, support type, and are not aggressive.
One person can be invisible at the optical level, and it is no problem to take two people invisibility hand in hand. One is to purify seawater, if this pyramid is at the bottom of the sea, these people will flee to the surface of the sea, and the energy source will continue to turn seawater into fresh water to drink, and survival will probably not be a problem.
Another person's ability was code parsing, or maybe he cracked some surveillance that allowed them to avoid the guards and leave their jobs. This person is the one Mo Xun asked alone just now.
Code parsing is the ability to restore existing programs to common underlying code, so that they can be easily copied or controlled.
This base has achieved intelligent control, and at the beginning it should only use programs written by humans themselves, which has indeed liberated labor and facilitated life and communication. Later, after the discovery of the submarine pyramid, it is estimated that in an attempt to use the energy device, a new control program needs to be developed.
The people of Clover didn't expect that the ancient program would awaken to self-awareness, and once connected, it would have such a strong control.
Now Mo Xun's question is, did the ancient program invade here before the natural disaster? When exactly did the Ancient Program awaken self-awareness? Is the program here connected to the programs in other places, and the strange beasts that appeared around the world are also awakened by this wave of programs?
The original founder of the Clover Order, perhaps a real person, was later exploited, and the self-aware program also used the human network to expand its reach and recruit more Chosen Ones to join the Order. Let the Chosen enslave ordinary people. In the end, when the mutated natural disaster occurs, the Chosen ones will kill each other.
What the truth is, this needs to grasp the top management of the base to understand.
By the end of the month, the book will be finished.
