Chapter 130: Opening the Human Ruins
Lin Xu stood up from the hoverboat with a brush.
I came to the window and looked out.
Nothing has changed outside, it's still the archipelago of countless small islands.
However, Lin Xu clearly felt in the high dimension that this place no longer belonged to the previous space at all, and even the flow of time had undergone subtle changes.
Time is diverted here.
Of course, non-high-dimensional beings are not perceptible, because the passage of time here is no different from the passage of time in the outside world, and there will be no situation where a day has been spent here and only a minute has passed outside.
But time has finally diverged here, and here and outside are already two planes.
It's like a small tributary of a river over time, even if it flows at the same speed, it is still a different branch after all.
With this kind of space-time barrier, it is no wonder that when Lin Xu was outside, not only could the nanorobots not be able to break through, but even the high-dimensional perspective could not penetrate the barrier of time and space, and he saw the situation here.
And now, with the unique time and space of the archipelago, Lin Xu's perspective in the high dimension finally saw the large number of contained objects that were contained in this unique time and space at this time.
"We're here." The hoverboat came to a halt on a small island, and the sympathetic man Raman stepped out of the hoverboat first.
Lin Xu and the others also followed.
It's just that compared to the calmness of Miss Qiu, Mu Xiyue, Nan Zhu and Lu Yao, Anna is more vigilant.
After all, compared to everyone who is brave and bold, Anna, who is just an ordinary detective, is really a bit empty at this time.
"Have they arrived?" In a certain room, in a video conference that goes on all the time, the screen of a member of parliament is pitch black, and only the ripples of sound pass by.
"It's here, and the action can begin."
"Agreed, the action begins."
So, the order was given, and the various departments, which had already been prepared, began to act.
At the same time, Lin Xu, who was on the apron of the island, asked Laman, a sympathetic man walking in front.
"Where's the place to store the containment?"
"Don't worry, since you're here, let's meet the councillors first." Raman motioned to move on.
Lin Xu smiled and was noncommittal.
Soon, the group came to an enclosed building.
It looks like a palace on the outside, but on the inside it looks more like a prison.
The further you go in, the more complete the various defensive measures are densely packed.
The heavy reinforced concrete, which is several meters thick, and cannot be exploded by a cannonball.
Lin Xu and the others stepped through the heavy steel doors, Anna became more and more nervous, and more and more excited, and even her body was a little flushed.
She just likes this kind of excitement, so she chose the profession of detective, chose this kind of life, and went deep into danger countless times.
Finally, under Raman's guidance, the group entered a room made entirely of reinforced concrete several meters thick, with only a long table and chairs, a row of monitors, and a cloaked figure sitting on the main seat.
"Arrived?" Lin Xu looked at Raman who was leading the way in front of him, with an inexplicable smile on his face.
"It's here, the councillors are already waiting for you." For some reason, Raman's voice suddenly became a little hoarse.
The next moment, as if receiving some kind of signal, a row of monitors flashed dense snowflakes.
But behind the monitor, there was no voice from the parliamentarians.
For a moment, in the gloomy and dark reinforced concrete pouring room, there was a row of monitors flickering with snowflakes, and a figure sitting on the main seat was shrouded in a cloak.
Shrouded everything in a horror movie.
"Pretending to be a ghost." Nan Candle muttered.
"It seems that the parliamentarians don't want to speak, what about you, can you still speak?" Lin Xu looked at the display that was still flashing with snowflakes on the screen and smiled.
"What, what do you mean?" Raman's voice grew hoarse.
Lin Xu shook his head, reached out and gently pushed it on Laman's body.
With a thud, Raman fell to the ground and fell into a pile of porcelain shards.
"What's going on? He's not a real person? Anna immediately crouched down to examine, the detective's eyes sparkling, she had never seen such a big living person turn into a shard of porcelain.
"Originally, yes, but I don't know when I was dropped." Lin Xu replied.
"Didn't you notice it either?" Anna asked.
"I found out after the change, but at the moment of the change, there is no clue how the change was made, and this should be some kind of containment ability." Mu Xiyue replied.
"Wait, you found out? Why didn't I find out? Nan Zhu instantly stared at Mu Xiyue with a pair of fox eyes.
"Because you're stupid." Mu Xiyue replied lightly.
"Am I stupid? I'm the leader. Nan Zhu immediately quit.
The Fairy Fox clan is already known for its scheming, and her dignified leader is said to be stupid, if it weren't for the wrong occasion now, she would definitely fight with Mu Xiyue by force.
"Your attention is on Lin Xu, and it's normal not to notice it." Lu Yao on the side played a round and persuaded him.
"I didn't, I just paid eighty percent of my attention to Lord Lin Xu, not all of them." Nan Zhu disagreed.
Mu Xiyue just glanced at her and didn't bother to take care of her.
At this time, I don't know if the porcelain man who fell to the ground alarmed the figure sitting there, and the figure under the cloak moved.
He just stood up as if he had just woken up, and the cloak on his body rolled off.
Anna immediately saw that it was a person whose face was made up entirely of three black holes.
The moment she saw the three black holes on the man's face, Anna seemed to be attracted and fell into a state of immobility.
Immediately, the faceless man with only three black holes on his face seemed to have seen someone and was frightened.
His hands immediately pinched his neck, and his palms tightened hard.
You can even see the green tendons in the palm of your hand.
So Anna's hands also clenched her neck, and at the same time the palms of her hands strained.
At the same time, on another nearby island, in the closed containment chamber, a humanoid porcelain suddenly appeared on the surface of the surface.
Immediately Laman's figure appeared, replacing the original porcelain.
Wheezing violently, Raman checked his whole body, and he was fine.
But he can't get out of here yet.
Because he is now only swapping bodies with the containment porcelain people, if he can't exchange his body back within twenty-four hours, he will completely lose his body and die.
Of course, his body, which has been turned into porcelain, is fine even if it is broken, as long as it is glued.
But the premise is that his body that turned into porcelain can still be found.
However, he was not worried about this, and broke into the base camp of the Foundation, and Rahman did not think that those few people could last twenty-four hours.
Of course, in order to prevent accidents, he can't leave this containment chamber for twenty-four hours.
"Hey Raman, would you like something to drink? We can send it to you. A voice outside the containment chamber asked.
"No, thanks, I just want to know what's going on over there now." Rahman asked, thanking him.
"It should have already begun, don't worry, it's a horrible containment object, it once caused an entire city to commit suicide, and the Foundation paid a great price to contain him in the first place." The voice outside the containment chamber sighed.
"Is that faceless man so powerful? Doesn't he only have those who see him imitate his movements? Someone was surprised.
"I don't understand it, a newcomer, he doesn't just let the people who see him imitate his actions, but as long as someone imitates his actions, a meme will be formed, and anyone who sees someone who imitates his actions will follow the imitation, and he doesn't need to see him directly, just see the person who imitates him." The voice explained.
"In this way, as long as he makes a suicidal act in the center of the city, others will immediately imitate him, and at the same time, even if people farther away can't see him, they will learn from those who imitate him, and this kind of diffusion will soon spread to the whole city."
"That's what makes him terrible, but luckily he found it early, otherwise it wouldn't have been just a city." The voice at the beginning sighed.
Raman listened to these conversations, and he was no stranger to the Faceless Man, because he was a newcomer when he first contained the Faceless Man, and even participated in the original containment plan.
He will never forget the suicide of more than half of his team.
It was precisely because he knew the horror of these containments that he didn't think that Lin Xu and the others would have a chance to live at all.
At the same time, I am not worried at all that my body will not be recovered.
Anna only felt that she couldn't control herself at all, and she followed what the faceless man did, and under the force of her hands, she couldn't breathe immediately.
Not surprisingly, soon she will pinch herself to death.
Is this the containment, it's so weird.
This ability is simply unreasonable and contrary to common sense.
How are they?
Anna rolled her eyes vigorously and looked to the side.
Then I saw that Lin Xu next to him was still standing there with the old god.
Miss Qiu placed her hands on her lower abdomen and maintained a perfect maid posture.
Mu Xiyue was on guard, while Nan Zhu and Lu Yao were surrounding her, as if they were studying why they suddenly went crazy and pinched themselves.
"You guys? It's okay? Anna wanted to ask, but the sound was just a grinding sound from the last gap in her trachea.
"Lord Lin Xu, what should she do?" Nan Zhu asked Lin Xu.
For Anna, a temporary companion who has been with each other for several days, Nan Candle is still very relevant.
"It's simple, just block it." Lin Xu said, and took a step forward directly, blocking between Anna and the faceless man.
Suddenly, Anna, who had lost the faceless male figure in front of her, immediately let go of her hands.
Whew, wheezing violently.
"You guys, why are you all right?" Anna didn't understand.
"Well, you just treat us as having a special physique!" Nan Zhu said with a smile.
I can't tell her because Lin Xu is a high-dimensional creature, and they are high-dimensional dependents.
It's like immunity to the information shock caused by the Chaos element.
As human dependents, they themselves have enough resistance to high-dimensional interference.
Not to mention the high-dimensional interference ability of faceless men, if placed in the high-dimensional, it is simply a drizzle, how can it work for them.
At this time, Lin Xu had already stepped forward, came to the faceless man's side, and looked closer curiously.
The faceless man who always maintained the posture of pinching his neck, his black hole-like eyes, seemed to glance at Lin Xu quietly, as if he was also thinking, why did this person not follow his own movements at all?
Then the next moment, the faceless man let go of his hands, and directly broke his neck with a bang.
The broken neck hung on his head against the flesh, and the black hole-like eyes of the faceless man seemed to be complaining to Lin Xu, why don't you learn from me? It's not normal.
"He has a broken neck, can he still take it back?" Lin Xu was a little curious.
"Master, do you need to heal him?" Miss Qiu stepped forward and said.
"I don't know if his body structure is the same as a normal person." Lin Xu looked at the faceless man, as if he was looking at a guinea pig.
And the faceless man's eyes still seem to be accusing, I am also a terrifying containment object, you can't humiliate me like this.
After all, the faceless man was still accepted by Lin Xu into the earth of the portable space and temporarily locked up.
Such an interesting guinea pig, Lin Xu was reluctant to kill it immediately.
Because the memetic infection of the faceless man is not only through real viewing, even if it is just a video viewing, it will also trigger the memetic infection.
So in the concrete pouring room where the faceless man was placed, there were no monitors, only eavesdropping devices.
And now, through the eavesdropping device, the people of the Foundation already know that Lin Xu and the others were not affected by the faceless man.
As for Lin Xu taking the faceless man away, without a monitor, they don't know.
"How is this possible, how can they not be affected by memes?"
"Could it be that there is something wrong with the faceless man's delivery, his cloak is not opened, and no one can see his face?"
"Someone has been affected just now, haven't you heard, it's just that not everyone has been affected, what the hell is going on?"
yes, what the hell happened, no one knows.
They only knew that the next moment, with a loud bang, the room made of reinforced concrete was directly pierced by Mu Xiyue's sword, and the thick sword qi extended outward, breaking through the defenses, and the reinforced concrete protection several meters wide everywhere extended to the outside of the building.
Even Lin Xu and the others looked out at the very center, and they could see the sunshine outside.
"Drop, drop the containment immediately, they can't escape, quickly." Foundation agents are starting to get anxious.
On the rest of the islands, a large number of Foundation members are ready to go.
Soon, just when Lin Xu and the others had just walked out of the building along the passage opened by Mu Xiyue's sword.
The helicopter in the sky swept by, and the figure descending by parachute from the sky blocked the way of Lin Xu and the others.
"You're a containment object too?" Lin Xu looked at it curiously, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like an ordinary person's figure.
"No, I'm a Foundation agent, and I'm here to play a game with you." The self-proclaimed agent smiled and opened the box in his hand.
"Games?" Lin Xu was puzzled.
"Yes, a dice game, there is a dice here, bet on a part of your body to face off, whoever rolls the dice with the highest number of points wins. The loser loses part of his body, and the winner gets a spare organ. The agent explained.
"Spare organs? What do you mean? Lin Xu was puzzled.
"That is, if we gamble on the heart, I will lose the heart if I lose. You win, and the next time you get a fatal injury to your heart, you'll be back to life in an instant. The agent explained the rules.
This is also one of the guidelines for the use of this containment object, after all, the game can only be started if the rules are clearly introduced.
"It's funny, but why should I bet with you?" Lin Xu said with a smile.
"I'm going to double my chips and force the game to open, you can't say no." The agent laughed.
"But I'm going to refuse." Lin Xu said with a smile.
"Then the gamble will force you to lose, do you still want to refuse? The chips I pay are all my guts, and if you are judged to lose, you will lose half of your guts, and you will also die. The agent was sure that Lin Xu would not refuse.
However, the next moment, when the agent was about to pick up the dice in the box and roll the dice, he suddenly noticed that the dice began to change colors.
The agent's face changed.
"You really refused?"
Then his face was ecstatic again.
"Then you can die, it seems that the credit belongs to me. I can't imagine that there are such stupid people in this world. ”
The next moment, however, the agent sensed that something was wrong.
Because Lin Xu was still standing there intact, but the colors on the dice were becoming more and more colorful.
Eventually, without a sound, the dice were annihilated.
With the annihilation of the dice, the agent who wanted to force Lin Xu to participate in the gambling game just now only felt that the weight on his body was light, and then something was missing in his stomach.
"What's going on? Why are all my internal organs gone? Obviously, you rejected the bet, and where did the dice go? The agent fell to the ground, his face full of confusion.
"It's just a backlash, wanting to take something from me, with its ability, it's only inevitable that it will be destroyed." Lin Xu said lightly, not surprised.
At that moment just now, the high-dimensional information entangled by the dice wanted to intervene in Lin Xu in a high-dimensional way.
It's like a computer that's a few decades old trying to understand a modern supercomputer and hacking into it, and it's weird not to burn itself to waste.
The dice disappear and the agent dies.
This caused another stir in the Foundation.
What's more, this time they observed that the dice were not hidden by Lin Xu, but disappeared, and a real containment object disappeared into the world.
Such an incredible sight made all the members of the Foundation watching this scene, from the bottom to the top, all silent.
"I propose that the containment items in the headquarters be evacuated immediately, and the containment items must not be allowed to fall into the hands of this person."
"I think we should open the devastating containment and completely eliminate the Detonator and the Maid, they are too dangerous."
"But using destructive-class containment will be even more dangerous, and if you are not careful, the whole world will be destroyed."
"Wouldn't it be dangerous to go on like this now, and wait until the destruction-level containment falls into his hands?"
The parliamentarians were arguing with each other, and for a while no one could convince anyone.
On Lin Xu's side, he stayed on the island, and did not move towards the rest of the islands, but closed his eyes slightly, as if he was feeling something.
"What is he doing?"
"I don't know, but this may be the last chance."
"Try it, Doom-class containment."
"Agreed."
"Agreed."
"Abstain."
"Abstain."
In the end, with seven votes in favor and four abstentions, the proposal for the use of destructive-class containment was finally passed with difficulty.
"Master, did you find it?" Miss Qiu asked.
"Found it, it's here." Lin Xu let out a sigh, this was not the longest time he had spent searching for the ruins, but it felt like the most tortuous process.
In fact, as early as when he had just entered this time and space that was different from the outside world, Lin Xu had already begun to release a large number of nanobots.
All I did just now was nothing more than waiting for the time for the nanobots to spread, and by the way, find something interesting to pass the time.
Finally, silently, nanobots have spread all over this space full of islands.
Lin Xu's consciousness filled this space through nanorobots, and finally discovered the subspace entrance anchored on this planet.
Not far away, on one of the most central islands.
And it was on that island that there was the largest number of containments.
Lin Xu even wondered if it would be the Foundation that had contained the entrance to the subspace of human relics as some kind of containment.
"Let's go, let's go." Now that he had found it, Lin Xu didn't plan to waste time, so he got up and flew over there.
The rest of Miss Qiu, Mu Xiyue, Nan Candle, Lu Yao and others naturally followed immediately, and Nan Candle didn't forget to bring Anna with them.
It's just that they haven't waited for a few people to fly far.
Suddenly, a light rose from a distance, and the direction in which the light rose was the direction in which several people were going to go.
It is the place where the largest collection of containment items is located on the many small islands.
"Master, what's that?" Miss Qiu was puzzled, because she also sensed an unsettling feeling in that burst of light.
It can make Miss Qiu feel uneasy, and the degree of danger can be imagined.
Mu Xiyue stopped in front of Lin Xu for the first time and became vigilant.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Lin Xu patted Mu Xiyue's shoulder and comforted her.
At the same time, from a high-dimensional perspective, he is observing the position represented by the light.
In the high dimension, this light is also the brightest among the many high-dimensional information entanglement points.
So Lin Xu understood.
The Foundation is dying.
