Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Evening Judgment. (Ask for subscription!! )
I don't know how long it took, Zhou Zhen suddenly woke up, he gasped heavily, and quickly came back to his senses, what he saw just now should be the memory of Ji Yuantao in Ward 1 on the 72nd floor!
Fragments of the memory of the [God-making Project]!
Shi Xinhong was infected, which should be because of the transplantation of this memory!
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen suddenly straightened up, the side effects of [Plane Shift] were over, and he felt as if he had forgotten something again.
He is now standing in the corridor on the 27th floor, the light above his head is shining brightly, the floor tiles in front of him are clean, there is nothing, and the glass behind him that was broken before does not know when it will return to normal, blocking the cold wind blowing from the outside world.
Shi Xinhong's body, as well as the other party's head, have disappeared......
Zhou Zhen gradually regained some of his memories, he tentatively stretched out his hand, grabbed the air in front of him, and a cold and flickering scalpel immediately appeared in his hand.
This scalpel is exactly the same as the scalpel that Shi Xinhong used just now.
Looking at this scene, Zhou Zhen suddenly determined that he had obtained Shi Xinhong's "number", and now he can affect this dream to a certain extent, just like Shi Xinhong!
Well...... The next thing to do is to cut off the heads of everyone here with a scalpel, so that all the dreamers can be woken up......
As soon as this idea arose, Zhou Zhen immediately realized that something was wrong.
It's just that the more he wants to correct his thinking, the tighter the scalpel in his hand!
If someone passes in front of him at this time, he will most likely go straight to the knife!
Knowing that this was not the way to go, Zhou Zhen immediately used [Plane Jump] and moved a certain distance by the window.
The next moment, his state quickly began to improve, and at the same time, Chu Jingyan's voice appeared in his mind again: "Need me?" ”
The moment Chu Jingyan's voice sounded, the memory that Zhou Zhen had just forgotten immediately returned!
He took a deep breath and quickly replied, "I have already obtained Ji Yuantao's 'number'!" ”
"Now, I'm going to cut this 'ring', and I need you to lend me your energy."
Chu Jingyan was silent for a moment, and then asked, "So, when will you let me out?" ”
Zhou Zhen immediately replied: "After cutting the 'ring'!" ”
Chu Jingyan didn't speak again, and after about a few seconds, Zhou Zhen's head suddenly began to hurt violently!
He reflexively hugged his head hard, and felt a powerful force, which suddenly poured into his body, up and down his body, all functions, began to grow rapidly!
Bang!
The surging pain made Zhou Zhen subconsciously take a small step forward, and a clear footprint immediately appeared on the solid floor tiles, and the entire floor also shook significantly. It seems that Zhou Zhen has changed from an ordinary human being to a terrifying existence in just a few moments!
The headache is getting more and more intense, and his strength is getting bigger and bigger, but his mind is starting to dull up!
Zhou Zhen gritted his teeth, and immediately understood that this was the "digital energy" that Chu Jingyan lent him!
This feeling is very similar to the last time he stole Ren Rui's homework book!
In his current state, he will soon be unable to think normally and must go to the first floor immediately!
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen rushed directly towards the window next to him.
Bang!!!
With a loud bang, Zhou Zhen smashed the glass and jumped out of the window.
WhewW......
Zhou Zhen fell quickly, the wind lifted his clothes, whistling fiercely in his ears, and he fell faster and faster, but he did not take any protective measures.
At the moment when Zhou Zhen was about to fall heavily to the ground, a translucent barrier instantly appeared around him!
This barrier is densely packed with tiny numbers, formulas, theorems...... It is a three-dimensional, with five faces, which firmly wraps Zhou Zhen from the front, back, left and right, and below.
Digital Domain, [Geometric Barrier]!
Rumble!!!
The ground was smashed into flying sand and rocks, and a big hole appeared directly, and the grass and trees in the surrounding flower beds were also swaying wildly under the violent impact, falling countless flowers and leaves, Zhou Zhen stood intact on the potholed ground, and the [geometric barrier] offset all the falling impacts for him!
The next moment, his figure disappeared.
※※※
Marina Central Hospital, Inpatient Building, Main Entrance Entrance.
The blue-and-green painted flying cars spread out and blocked the entrances and exits, and the roof lights flashed, turning the surrounding scene into a strange scene.
In the night, the criss-crossing "LIMIT" cordon swayed gently, and all entrances and exits were blocked with flying cars.
The searchlights on the roof of the building were still regularly sweeping the entire central hospital, and the surroundings were quiet, no one was in or out, and a uniformed security officer walked back and forth, occasionally turning his head sideways and talking briefly in the communicator, vigilantly watching everything that was going on.
As if knowing that the security guard would not let her go back to the inpatient building, the middle-aged female doctor had stopped talking, just frowning and grimacing, obviously in a bad mood.
The two male nurses were standing beside them, looking at the security officer for a while, the middle-aged female doctor for a while, and Lu Cong for a while, their faces were full of dazedness, and they didn't seem to have recovered from the series of events that happened tonight.
Lu Cong's face was vigilant, operating his wheelchair, and he followed Fan Hang step by step, judging from the small movements of his sneaking glances at the three doctors from time to time, he seemed to still maintain his vigilance against the middle-aged female doctor and the two male nurses.
However, maybe I was a little tired from chattering all the time, and I lost my voice at the moment.
In the orderly vigilance, everyone's hearts seemed to be stretched with a string.
At this time, at the gate of the inpatient department, a young man of eighteen or nineteen suddenly appeared!
When the surrounding security officers saw Zhou Zhen, they immediately stepped forward to greet him, but the next moment ......
All the security officers looked dazed, maintaining their posture for a moment, as if they had instantly turned into a statue, without any movement.
Digital Domain, [Overclocking Interference]!
In order to prevent accidents, Zhou Zhen used [Overclocking Interference] on everyone here except Lu Cong and the middle-aged female doctor!
Seeing Zhou Zhen suddenly appear, Lu Cong immediately pushed his wheelchair forward and asked loudly, "Comrade security officer, have you seen a ghost?" ”
"This doctor, as well as the two male nurses, must have been infected with the 'digital virus'......"
The middle-aged female doctor frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Lu Cong! You don't talk nonsense here! ”
"The three of us didn't see what you said, and even if someone really has a problem, whose problem is it?"
"You're wasting public resources!"
Hearing this, Zhou Zhenqiang endured the more and more intense headache, and looked back and forth on Lu Cong and the middle-aged female doctor.
Here is the node of the "ring"!
Lu Cong and the middle-aged female doctor, one is in "dream", and the other is in "reality"!
According to his previous speculation, the call to the police was made by Lu Cong, and Lu Cong should be on the "reality" side of the "ring"!
However, the reason why Lu Cong called the police was that he saw the dead corpse and was gnawing on the brains of other patients, and it was an obvious "dream"!
Before the other party called the police, he was already in a "dream"!
In contrast, the middle-aged female doctor who did not see the corpse showed that the other party had not yet fallen asleep......
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen's face gradually began to distort, and it was getting harder and harder for him to think in his current state!
Suddenly, a detail came to his mind......
Zhou Zhen immediately looked at Lu Cong and asked coldly, "Who are you!?" ”
Hearing this, Lu Cong was stunned and quickly replied: "My name is Lu Cong, a patient in bed C of ward 16, Area E, on the 61st floor of the inpatient department, because he broke his leg and arm because of drag racing, he came to have surgery, but he saw the old man who died in the same ward digging up the brains of living people to eat, so I dialed ......."
Before Lu Cong finished speaking, Zhou Zhen had already shook his head and interrupted directly: "No! ”
"When you called the police, Ji Yuantao's dream in Ward 1 on the 72nd floor had not completely covered the entire inpatient department."
"And you are an orthopedic patient, that is to say, the doctor in charge of you is not Shi Xinhong, nor Cheng Siyuan......"
"You weren't the first person to come into contact with [Multiple Dreams], why were you able to spot the problem before the dream broke out?"
"Also, if you do come across the old man's body......"
"As a 'digital compatible', I was almost injured by the old man just now while wearing a firearm, how did you escape from the inpatient department with an injured patient and a wheelchair?"
"And you also brought out your own attending doctor and two nurses?"
"The most important thing is that Ji Yuantao on the 72nd floor is an experiment of the 'Twilight Trial'."
"The 'Twilight Trial' should have sealed off the entire central hospital, how did you call the police?"
"Are you a member of the 'Twilight Trial'?!"
Listening and listening, the inexplicable look on Lu Cong's face gradually disappeared, the corners of his mouth hooked up a little, and an exaggerated smile slowly appeared.
Lu Cong didn't speak again, maintaining this exaggerated and weird smile, staring at Zhou Zhen quietly.
The middle-aged female doctor next to her said confusedly: "Comrade security officer, what is going on in the inpatient building?" ”
"What dream? And that experiment, what is it? ”
Zhou Zhen took a deep breath, he didn't answer the words of the middle-aged female doctor, he already knew in his heart, he guessed right!
At the node of this "ring", standing on the side of "reality" is Lu Cong!
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen immediately walked towards Lu Cong, and a five-sided translucent [Geometric Barrier] appeared around him to prevent this member of the "Dusk Trial" from suddenly sneaking up on him.
He strode up to Lu Cong and stopped, seeing that the other party didn't mean to attack him at all, he immediately began to recall the memory he had just received from Shi Xinhong......
Those memories are the "numbers" of Ji Yuantao in Ward 1 on the 72nd floor!
He wants to use Ji Yuantao's "number" to cut this "ring"!
Accompanied by Ji Yuantao's memory, it completely appeared in Zhou Zhen's mind, and everything around him suddenly stopped!
The buildings of the central hospital, searchlights, flashing police lights, flowers and trees swaying in the night wind, flying insects, ground, lawn, security officers...... The whole environment has quietly faded, and in its place, there is a vast lake!
There is no boundary around the lake, only a thin mist churning in the distance, and behind the fog is a thicker fog, I don't know where it extends, as if it is boundless, and it seems that in the whole world, only this lake is real, and the rest of the place is an ethereal fog.
Above, there was a gray and white void, like a gloomy winter sky.
The water of the lake does not have a trace of ripples, showing a cold clarity, like a mirror, clearly reflecting the scene on the surface of the lake.
Zhou Zhen saw that he was standing in the center of this lake, and Lu Cong was standing beside him in a hospital gown, Lu Cong was still maintaining that exaggerated and weird smile at the moment, and his eyes were full of banter; Opposite Lu Cong was the middle-aged female doctor, who was also standing, but her eyes were closed, and her chest was slightly undulating, as if she was sleeping.
It's just that the reflection under the lake is diametrically opposite, Lu Cong's eyes are closed, his shoulders are slightly shrugged, and he is sleeping; The middle-aged female doctor stood motionless, her eyes open, awake!
Behind Lu Cong, there was a crowd of shadows, some of them wearing security uniforms, some of them wearing hospital gowns, as well as a large number of medical staff, security guards, accompanying family members, and several maintenance workers in work clothes...... On the surface of the lake, like Lu Cong, his eyes are open and he is awake, while the reflection under the lake is closed and sleeping.
Behind the middle-aged female doctor, there are also many figures, security officers, patients, family members, medical staff, security guards, maintenance workers...... The figures on the lake are all asleep, and in the reflection, they all open their eyes, and they belong to a state of wakefulness.
Zhou Zhen, who was standing between these two groups of people, stood alone on the surface of the lake, without any reflection under his feet.
The surroundings are lonely, hazel and barren, like a grotesque and solemn picture.
In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Zhou Zhenqiang endured a severe headache, and then walked towards the middle-aged female doctor.
When he came to the female doctor, he immediately found that the middle-aged female doctor who was sleeping just now was awake, and the reflection under her feet had become a sleeping state, and the figure behind the female doctor was the same.
Zhou Zhen looked back at Lu Cong again, and found that Lu Cong, who was standing on the surface of the lake, was asleep, and his reflection was awake, and the people behind Lu Cong were the same.
Everything was completely opposite to what he saw when he stood beside Lu Cong!
Zhou Zhen finally nodded, making sure that this was really the node of the "ring", he immediately returned to Lu Cong's side, and then took out a scalpel and began to draw a line on the lake between Lu Cong and the middle-aged female doctor.
In an instant, the "digital energy" in Zhou Zhen's body began to be consumed rapidly, but at the same time, more energy was poured into his body, so that his energy always maintained a delicate balance.
With the drawing of this dividing line, the middle-aged female doctor began to flip up and down with the lake as the middle line, and the reflection in the lake rotated to the lake surface little by little; The figure on the surface of the lake slowly sank below the surface of the lake......
※※※
Inpatient building, fire stairwell.
The pale yellow paint rendered the originally cold white light into a slight warmth, Jin Qingfeng was covered in blood, carrying a lonely rifle on his back, standing on the steps that had just climbed two levels, looking stunned.
"Comrade vigilante, you're here again......"
Hearing this, Jin Qingfeng turned his head suddenly, and suddenly saw a familiar figure standing behind him, a white coat, a green doctor's hat, a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and long eyes, the stubble on his chin was not shaved clean, a slightly chubby figure, and a nameplate pinned to his chest......
It's Cheng Siyuan!
Jin Qingfeng did not hesitate and immediately raised his gun to shoot.
Click......
The trigger was pulled, but the muzzle did not shoot a bullet, but a few noises were heard, and the rifle jammed!
Jin Qingfeng frowned, and hurriedly stepped back, while removing the brake, pulling the bolt, and preparing to reload.
However, as soon as he took a step back, his feet suddenly emptied, and his body involuntarily fell backwards!
This familiar scene made Jin Qingfeng suddenly surprised!
Only then did he realize that behind him, which was originally a staircase going upstairs, was now a downstairs again.
Cheng Siyuan, who was originally standing below him, became standing above him!
All the fire stairs have once again become smooth slopes and curves.
The scene where I met Cheng Siyuan on the 72nd stairs before was re-staged!
Jin Qingfeng fell down the slope, fell into the spiral slide, and immediately slid down quickly.
The walls around him were as smooth as a mirror, and there was no place to fix his body, and he rolled down like a ball that had fallen into a rolling groove.
Jin Qingfeng wanted to shoot, and just like just now, he shot bullet holes in the wall, but after several attempts in a row, the rifle kept jamming and could not shoot at all.
Thundered......
There was a deafening sound overhead, and with the trembling of the entire spiral slide, a heavy roller rolled down.
The speed of the roller was fast, the size was completely consistent with the spiral landing, and it was tightly fitted, leaving no room for survival, it was whistling and rolling, and it didn't take long for it to appear behind Jin Qingfeng, getting closer and closer to him.
Soon, Jin Qingfeng could already feel the sound of the wind when the roller rolled down and stirred the corners of his clothes!
It seemed that the next moment, this roller would run over him!
Seeing that he was already in a catastrophe, Jin Qingfeng's hairs stood on end, his muscles tensed, and at this moment, everything around him suddenly became extremely blurry.
He suddenly came to his senses and subconsciously wanted to get up, but found that his body couldn't move at all.
Jin Qingfeng saw that he was now in a very cramped place, dark and cold all around, and the only light came from a gap diagonally above, where a pale light seeped in, as if the white sheets used to cover the hospital bed pushed out of the operating room illuminated the gurgling dark red blood, and a little white bone in the darkness.
The energy detection device was attached to his body, firmly supporting a corner of his existence, the deformed metal car on three sides, which had collapsed into a twisted shape, firmly pressing his legs, and the broken arm was constantly splattering blood, converging into a pool of blood under him, and the only side without a car was a cold elevator shaft.
At this moment, some concrete chips are still falling above the elevator shaft, squirming Jin Qingfeng of what is happening here.
I don't know if it's because of the excessive blood loss, or if the temperature at the bottom of the elevator shaft is already very low, he feels extremely cold now, and the sharp pain in the wound has already turned into numbness, and he can't use any strength all over his body.
Life was running through him.
Jin Qingfeng instantly understood, from the moment he fell down the elevator shaft, he also fell into this [multiple dream] and became a part of the "ring"!
Now this is the case......
Is it that you have woken up?
Or is it ...... From one dream to another?
Thinking of this, Jin Qingfeng immediately used all his strength and said, "Xiao Zhou, can you still hear it?" ”
"Have you already cut the 'ring' ......?"
"I'm ...... at the bottom of the elevator shaft"
※※※
Inpatient Building, 29th floor.
Expert Lounge.
The desk with the triangular name plates of "Cheng Siyuan" and "Shi Xinhong" was in the innermost part of the room, and on the solid wood table outside, seven or eight doctors in white coats were sleeping in different postures.
In the sofa chair next to him, there were two figures sitting motionless.
Suddenly, everyone woke up.
The doctors at the solid wood table all raised their heads blankly, looking at each other, not understanding what had just happened, but quickly ......
"Infection...... Infected person!!! ”
A frightened exclamation woke everyone up.
The other doctors all turned their heads to look, and immediately saw Cheng Siyuan's exposed skin, which quickly faded from the traces of flesh and blood, and turned into a dark and light-colored mineral. And Shi Xinhong, who was next to Cheng Siyuan, collapsed little by little, and turned into a puff of ashes in a blink of an eye, fluttering and scattered......
The doctors didn't think much about it, so they quickly stood up and ran away from the door.
※※※
The inpatient department, the whole building, all the people who were still asleep, all woke up at the same time.
They looked at each other blankly, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a while.
But there are also many people who will never wake up......
In the hall on the first floor, the display screen behind the general service desk is still on, and Ma Xinxin and Wu Xu on duty are smiling slightly at the outside in the photo, their eyes are bright and vibrant, full of the unique confidence of professionals; Underneath the display, two nurses remain motionless on their stomachs on the table.
On the opposite side of the service desk, on the metal bench, nurse Qi Ling lowered her head, her body curled up slightly, and she was still holding the plastic-sealed sterilized bed sheet tightly in her hand.
The three nurses were still very quiet, breathing and heartbeat, long since stopped.
On the 9th floor, the lights are still bright, the lounge, behind the desk, and the monitoring hall...... The security guards lay on the ground, and the smell of fried yellow beef with chili peppers wafted in the corridor, and the whole space was dead silent, without any life.
In Room A, Room 23, Area E on the 61st floor, patient Chen Jufang was lying on her back on her hospital bed, her body was completely cold, and she had become a lifeless corpse......
※※※
In Ward 1 on the 72nd floor of the inpatient department, which is larger than any other ward in the entire building, various medical machines continue to operate, and the room is silent when the breathing lights are turned on and off.
The figure on the curtain was motionless.
Suddenly, on the hospital bed behind the curtain, a howl of great pain erupted!
Dense cracks suddenly appeared in the entire ward, walls, floors, ceilings, medical equipment, windows...... All of them appeared like ice cracks, and then shattered!
The howling quickly stopped, then turned into a heavy, suppressed gasp.
Crash!
The tightly drawn curtain suddenly turned into a raging fire, and the flames flew up, burning the curtain completely in an instant.
Behind the curtain, there was a hospital bed connected to countless pipes and wiring, and on the bed lay a patient in a striped hospital gown, who looked to be in his early twenties, very thin, almost to the point of being pinched.
Probably for the sake of healing, he shaved his head, his eyebrows fell thin, his face was as pale as paper, there was no blood, his eyebrows and eyes were deep, and the contour was originally upright, but at the moment his cheekbones were high and raised, and his eyelashes looked particularly grotesque.
Ji Yuantao held his head in both hands, his face was distorted, and he was extremely painful!
Countless blood-drenched, shocking images swarmed and filled his mind.
Some of these images are his own memories, and some are "numbers" that have just died in his dreams......
※※※
Outside the main entrance of the inpatient department.
The night breeze blew the corners of Zhou Zhen's clothes, and next to him was Lu Cong in a wheelchair, a middle-aged female doctor and two male nurses not far away, who had disappeared at some point.
The surrounding security guards woke up like a dream, and subconsciously looked left and right.
Before they could figure out what was going on, Zhou Zhen immediately shouted, "Quick! ”
"Call the Ghost Team!"
"Evacuate all personnel in the central hospital immediately!"
"Never enter the 72nd floor of the inpatient department......"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Cong next to him suddenly laughed, and said in a strange tone: "It's too late!" The 'Evening Judgment' is coming! ”
The next moment......
Rumble!!!
Five giant weights of different sizes smashed down like five towering mountain peaks, these weights were dull and gloomy, as a whole, like gold and copper, extremely heavy, and the two dozen or so buildings of the central hospital were fragile like paper paste in front of them, without any resistance, and the seemingly solid reinforced concrete crumbled in an instant, and the wreckage and debris, glass slag, and blood foam ...... Soaring and churning in the gap between the weights.
In the dust, the Binhai Central Hospital was razed to the ground in an instant!
Before the security guards around the inpatient department could make any sound, they suddenly exploded collectively and turned into a blood mist in the sky!
The LOGO, which hangs high in the night sky and means saving lives and helping the wounded, disappeared in an instant, and a strong bloody atmosphere gradually filled the air.
In just one sentence, Zhou Zhen just desperately cut the "ring", and all the people who were desperately rescued from the dream were all killed on the spot!
Zhou Zhen was stunned for a moment, looking at everything in front of him in disbelief.
Next to him, Lu Cong slowly stood up from the wheelchair, his face changed rapidly, and soon became a very young short-haired man, his face was as pale as paper, his eyes were narrow and sharp, and his eyelids had heavy shadows, as if he hadn't had a good rest for a long, long time, and there was an upside-down scepter tattooed on his left face, on which was coiled a two-headed snake spitting letters......
At the same time, the plaster on the arms and legs of "Lu Cong" was light, and the hospital gown was light, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a dark red suit with a light yellow shirt and a silk bow tie.
The corners of his mouth were raised high, his smile became more and more exaggerated, and he said with a somewhat crazy expression: "You just said it very right!" ”
"But one thing was wrong!"
"I'm not a member of the 'Evening Trial.'"
"Those two are!"
Zhou Zhen suddenly came back to his senses, and looked in the direction pointed by "Lu Cong", at the top of the nearest weight to them, I don't know when, there were two unfamiliar figures standing.
Among these two figures, the one standing in front of him was wearing a dark gold trench coat, under the brim of his hat, there seemed to be a sea of stars far away, the green light was flashing rapidly in the sea of stars, the dark golden balance stood quietly in the depths of the nebula, the hollow cross pattern was almost nothing, and the heart and eyes were quietly balanced on the tray.
The other party put his hands behind his back, bowed his head slightly, and looked at him calmly.
Behind this figure, there is a beautiful woman wearing a black lacquered leather dress and bright red boots, with a hot figure, deep eyebrows and eyes, light gold hair floating on her shoulders, eyes as blue as the ocean, and the corners of her skirt are also imprinted with a dim balance, she followed the figure of the dark gold windbreaker step by step, did not look at Zhou Zhen, but stared at "Lu Cong" tightly, with an extremely dignified expression.
At this time, the observer's gaze also turned to "Lu Cong", and said in a low voice: "'Ash Order'? ”
"If you dare to steal the data of the 'Twilight Trial', you will have to pay a price!"
"Lu Cong" suddenly burst into a burst of rampant laughter: "Hahahahaha......"
His body rose in the air defying gravity, and soon floated to the same height as the two observers.
At the same time, a woman in a camel-colored coat and a golden mask appeared beside him, the golden mask had no holes, the ink-colored eyes were depicted as if they were sleeping, cold and evil, and on the slender neck, wearing an upside-down scepter, a pendant wrapped around a two-headed snake, and the ribbon on the top hat hunted and fluttered in the night wind.
"Lu Cong" opened his hands and said in an aria-like tone: "It's just a failure!" ”
"Unexpectedly, the 'Evening Trial' has reached this point!"
"The 'Doublestitch Man' is really old......"
Hearing this, the observer snorted coldly and said lightly: "Although F0467 is only a half-finished product, it is not something that you little worms of the 'Ash Order' can covet!" ”
"The 'doctor' is not here, no one can save you today!"
As he spoke, he raised an arm, and his fingertips lightly touched the data stream that was constantly brushing down on the vision sensor, and a string of green data was immediately extracted and fell to the ground like a drop of rain along his fingertips.
The moment it touched the ground, this string of data turned into a green light and disappeared into the ruins of the central hospital in a blink of an eye.
The next moment, the terrifying and vast energy rose from under the weight that pressed against the original site of the inpatient building!
The huge weight shook violently, as if it was a mountain rising in a huge earthquake, and began to move upward, and soon, at the bottom of the weight, a tall and incredible figure appeared.
Ji Yuantao was still in shape, sick and weak, but he only raised one palm to hold up this mountain-like giant weight!
Sorry, sorry, I forgot to set it for a scheduled release.。。。
