Chapter 35: Confrontation
At the same time, the workstation and the oversized monitor started up at the same time, and the screen lit up.
"I ...... No way. The crowd didn't know where to burst out of a foul mouth.
Xu Luoling clenched his fists and knocked Yu Boya's head with a bang: "Look at the good things you did!" ”
Yu Boya raised his hand stiffly, his fingertips pointing at his nose uncertainly, his eyes full of innocent doubts: "...... I? ”
Is something triggered?
Li Xiaowei immediately tried to push and pull the sturdy glass door, but the door did not move.
Chen Mofan quickly browsed the information on the workstation. Frankly speaking, although the computer has a lot of information, most of it is esoteric biological knowledge, which makes him confused. And the information that he could understand was of no help to the predicament at the moment.
"I'll give it a try." At this time, Yu Boya had already grabbed a heavy "heavy chopping knife" and motioned for the people around him to disperse.
The deafening sound of the bell resounded in his ears, and Yu Boya didn't think so at first, but it turned out that the sturdy tempered bulletproof glass door didn't even leave a trace. Unconvinced, he picked up his shotgun and fired a shot at the glass door, but it still had no effect.
Yu Boya's eyes became serious, and he clenched the heavy slasher, and the green tendons in his hands bulged.
"Warning, please stop your vandalism, I will activate the defense procedure after three warnings."
Suddenly, a clear female voice synthesized by electronic sounds sounded, and the image of a virtual woman appeared in the center of the screen, seemingly the master of this mysterious space.
"Stop!" Chen Mofan beckoned to Liang Pseudo-Nan.
"Who are you?"
"I'm supposed to ask you, who are you? There is no record of you in the profile of any of the staff in the institute, and based on your physiology, you should theoretically be in the category of test subjects, but you do not appear in the test subjects' database. The only reasonable assumption is that you are intruders from the outside. ”
"Intruders? So, who are you? Chen Mofan asked again.
"I'm the Red Queen, the second intelligent computer in this institute, and it's my job to oversee the safety of the test subjects and make sure they don't escape." The Red Queen replied with her index fingers crossed in both hands, very lazily.
It's just that this answer made the pupils of everyone present involuntarily contract violently.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Liang Pseudo-Nan at the same time, and the meaning of the expression was self-evident - didn't you say that this place was controlled by humans? So, how can this existence in front of us be explained?
"Originally, I was in a dormant state, but I was suddenly awakened by you, and I thought that the test subject I was holding had escaped, but since it wasn't, it was none of my business." The Red Queen yawned humanly, and as she spoke, the glass door of the hall opened automatically.
"Huh? Just let us go? Aren't we invaders...... Hmm......" Yu Boya subconsciously complained, but in the next second, Xu Luoling hurriedly covered his mouth.
"I want to die!" Xu Luoling glared at him angrily, "Do you really think of yourself as a pig's head?" ”
However, the Red Queen ignored them.
"Cut, you have to manage this and that, how much money do you give a month? That's the White Queen's job, and I don't care. Like a real worker, he flickered and disappeared from the screen after he finished speaking.
"Tsk, she really has a personality, this 'Red Queen' is really like a living worker." Hu Yuyan muttered quietly, and everyone was relieved at the same time.
"No, she's just an artificial intelligence, and while she's simulated human form and voice, she's still essentially a computer program. Her existence is just an anthropomorphic representation of the result set by the engineer and the calculation of big data. As she said earlier, her duties were limited to the detention of subjects, and other matters of the Institute were not within her purview. As if brushing the sense of existence, Xu Hongcai stood up and calmly analyzed.
"That is?"
"In other words, in her programming, tasks that don't belong to her, no matter how capable she is, won't bother with them." Xu Hongcai added.
"Okay, can you explain that now? Mr. Liang Pseudo-male. Abruptly, Xu Hongcai changed his words, looked directly at Liang Pseudo-Nan, and his tone suddenly became sharp, "What is the real purpose of bringing us here?" ”
"......" Liang Pseudo-Nan looked at the huge display screen in silence and did not answer immediately.
"Brother Xu, you ...... What does that mean? Xiao Bingding asked Xu Hongcai a little curtly, but his feet quietly moved behind everyone, with a hint of unease.
"This doubt has been brewing in my mind for a long time. Ever since I stepped into this institute, I have always felt inexplicably strange. If you've ever been out of here, why are you so unfamiliar with it? In particular, what you say doesn't fit anywhere here. The most important thing is what the computer just revealed. ”
Xu Hongcai's voice was low and powerful, as if on the verge of revealing some kind of truth, and his words echoed in the air, with an invisible sense of oppression, making everyone present feel nervous.
"Your identity isn't in the subject's database, and you're not an active employee here, so who are you? What is the purpose of bringing us here? After speaking, Xu Hongcai's eyes were as sharp as a knife, staring at Liang Pseudo-Nan tightly, his hand on his waist, and his vigilance was overflowing.
When Li Shuzhu and Zhang Ting heard such an analysis, they also involuntarily took a step back, their eyes full of doubts and worries.
"Brother Xu, it's a little inappropriate to say this at this time." Xiao Bingding was a little helpless and tried to ease the atmosphere.
"It's easy to dodge with open guns, but it's hard to defend against hidden arrows. I'm more worried about those who are hiding in the shadows and don't know what they're planning than the dangers that lie out on the surface. Xu Hongcai's eyes were firm, and his tone was full of vigilance, "I don't dare to take it lightly, so aren't you ready to tell your true identity?" ”
"Pretty observant." Liang Pseudo-Nan bowed slightly, and his voice was low and magnetic, as if some kind of ancient music was playing softly in his ears, "But unfortunately, wisdom may not be enough." The class gap between the new human beings is like the stars and dust, and the disparity is extreme. The guns you rely on, in the face of the absolute disparity in strength, I am afraid can only become a powerless struggle. Are you really not afraid that I will do it at this moment and let these faint fires of you be completely extinguished in the dark? "
The black energy surrounded him, like the momentum of the undercurrent when night fell, like the grim reaper wielding a scythe, harvesting the oppression of life, making everyone feel suffocated.
However, at the tense moment when everyone was facing the enemy, Chen Mofan laughed lightly: "You won't do this." ”
