Chapter 92: After the Gate
Could it be that the people trapped here are all prisoners waiting to be drained of their souls to act as energy?
A group of prisoners trapped here alone, with a certain amount of freedom of movement, and under house arrest by various bewilderment devices.
For example, the video equipment on the dome may have been used to set up false scenes.
Even the delicate equipment on the stone wall is not limited to zooming in and out of a doorway.
It's only because a large amount of equipment here has been destroyed, or transferred, that the previous deception process seems so thin and vague.
Combined with the overall layout, the independent external connecting passages, the camouflage doorway used to separate the ancient ruins from the cavity here, and the energy-carrying container that will be directly discarded when stimulated, the significance of these three combinations is much more than a camouflage cage.
According to this logic, even if this ancient relic is deviant, their research on the soul is still in the experimental stage, and they are even more cautious about the study of spirit energy.
According to the results of the Tunguska explosion, the spirit energy should be extremely unstable, and the experimental equipment used for research is ready to be discarded at any time.
However, according to the basic hedging logic, such a hazard laboratory should be set up in an area far away from the ancient ruins, or at least on the shallow surface, so that even if there is an accident, the danger factors can be thrown out in time.
Regarding this contradictory attribute, Bai Ning felt that it was very likely that the study of soul energy would radiate outward obvious representational phenomena, and only by being located in the deep underground could such a risk be completely isolated.
If this is the case, there may be a very long road waiting for Bai Ning to cross after this gate.
In other words, Bai Ning seems to have determined this underground cavity through a certain amount of reasoning and ventured to reach it, but in fact, Bai Ning is still located in the outer area of the ancient ruins.
The result of this kind of inference is very demoralizing, and if you are so desperate to advance to this point, in the end, you are just wandering on the periphery of the ancient ruins.
What is the difference between this status quo and being on the forest surface?
Forcing this anxiety in his heart, Bai Ning could only think from the benign side, at least open the door in front of him, and they would completely master a passage to the ancient ruins.
Furthermore, what if the road to the ancient ruins is not long?
Or maybe there is a special teleportation mechanism in this corridor that doesn't require them to traverse it with much effort?
The future is still promising, and there is no need to be discouraged by some indifferent inferences.
"The response mechanism here is not siloed, and there is clearly something similar to a central control computer that is centrally controlled.
According to this logic, we should try to crack such a central control device. ”
Seeing that Bai Ning was stroking the wall in front of him for a long time, Jiang Yingxue could only try to solve the current dilemma in her own logical way.
"The central control of the ancient ruins still controls the current underground chamber, and for it to work, they have to think that we are our own talents."
Unexpectedly, Bai Ning was able to advance according to her ideas in an instant, and the content of her response was even more surprising.
It's another kind of whimsy that breaks the convention, disguised as one's own person who has become an ancient ruin, how should this be disguised?
They don't even know the specific forces that exist in the ancient ruins, so they can only roughly guess that they may be a branch of the Atlantean civilization, and they want to disguise an object that they are not familiar with, or even have no knowledge of, isn't it a fantasy?
"How?
Even if the Aryans are descendants of the Atlantean civilization according to your previous reasoning, we don't have any blonde and blue-eyed white people here, and what kind of camouflage strategy should we use under the premise that we are not satisfied with our physical characteristics?
You can't shout "your own people" at the ceiling and the hidden door will open automatically, right? ”
The more Jiang Yingxue thought about Bai Ning's strange idea, the more she felt that it was impossible, perhaps out of an extremely boring attitude, she teased a few words a little casually.
"The assumption that the Atlantean civilization existed on the western continent and close to Europe also gives the impression that the Atlanteans were all white.
However, the Atlantean civilization may only be a representative of the fourth civilization, and our current fifth civilization, the four ancient civilizations that rose in the wilderness, is not only a white civilization.
Perhaps the Aryans were some remnants of the sinking of the Great Western Continent, but this is located on the Asian continent, and the indigenous people of the Tunguska region, where the aborigines are mostly yellow, are not necessarily predominantly white.
Besides, the three of us fell asleep together, but the tentacles on the ceiling preferred Aaron for binding, and it wasn't until I started attacking the ceiling with a firearm that the tentacles could fight back.
The selection of one of the three filters, and the selective counterattack after being attacked, all show that the tentacles have a difference in their judgment on the three of us.
I can't elaborate on the current distinction, but it at least shows that there are certain qualities in our body that are acceptable to the tentacles, and there is a certain quality in Aaron's body that makes him a target for the tentacles.
This polarization is perhaps the key to the central control system that we use to play and confuse. ”
Bai Ning's follow-up analysis made Jiang Yingxue's eyes light up, this possibility does have a value for trying.
After a short period of excitement, Jiang Yingxue fell into confusion again, Bai Ning was not clear about the mechanism used by the central control system to identify his own people, and what kind of means did they need to use to confuse the central control system?
Can't it really be as Jiang Yingxue said before, can you deceive the trust of the central control system by opening the sesame door?
For this kind of question, Jiang Yingxue didn't want to talk too much, since Bai Ning had a way, then he would be solely responsible for the follow-up.
Jiang Yingxue, who was silent, wanted to see what Bai Ning wanted to do next, but Bai Ning continued to stand in place with an indifferent look, and he didn't know what new plan was brewing in his heart.
For Bai Ning at this time, he was very curious about the characteristics of Ah Long's body, what was the characteristic that caused the priority attack of the tentacles?
"When Ah Long was a soldier, did he experience any big actual battles?"
Just when Jiang Yingxue was stunned because of the silence in the field, Bai Ning's question made her stunned again.
"Aaron has the experience of being a mercenary, and he has experienced some battles large and small, and the number of people who died at his hands is unknown, but there must be a lot."
Bai Ning's question reminded Jiang Yingxue of the influence of the spirit body on the tentacles, and they all said that only soldiers who have been stained with blood will show a murderous aura that is condensed like substance, can it be that the soul that died in vain will really entangle the murderer?
Jiang Yingxue's association is exactly the direction that Bai Ning is thinking about, if there are some soul fragments on Ah Long's body, which just happened to attract the attention of the tentacles, then this statement also makes sense.
However, if this assumption is true, then the difference between Bai Ning and Ah Long is not an essential difference between friend and foe, and there is no prerequisite for deception of the central control system.
Thinking about it again, during the previous exploration of the sleep deprivation laboratory, the spirit riot also caused a large number of casualties, and if the dead souls would be entangled with the living, then there would be no difference between Bai Ning and Ah Long.
Since it wasn't a matter of spirit fragments, could it be because Bai Ning and Jiang Yingxue had both touched the crystal nucleus, and a certain characteristic on the crystal nucleus caused any essential difference between the two and Ah Long?
Thinking along this path, the crystal has the effect of calming the nerves and nourishing the soul, and if the damage to the nervous system caused by the spiritual pollution experienced before is also attributed to the damage to the human soul, then Ah Long, who has not been in contact with the crystal nucleus, will have a higher degree of soul dispersion than Bai Ning.
In the perspective of tentacles' selection, Ah Long's soul level is even more dissolved, and it is a source of excellent spirit energy, so he gave priority to capturing Ah Long.
The characteristics of the crystal nucleus are not a secret, and if it is expected, the storage of soul energy is also based on the crystal nucleus.
As far as the current state of ancient ruins is concerned, large storage is dangerous, and small storage is relatively stable.
So where is the energy system that supports the entire ancient ruin?
Is it an accessory to this underground cavity?
Thinking about it like that, it's interesting.
No matter how broken the mechanics of this underground cavity are, is its management core trying to prevent unknown dangers from reaching the annexed areas as much as possible?
With this kind of operation logic of the management core, coupled with the mutilated characteristics of ancient ruins, can it be confused through its characteristics of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages?
Pretending to be an insider and pretending to be a dangerous element makes no difference to the core of management.
In the aftermath of the Tunguska explosion, due to the shortcomings in the mechanism and energy reserves, the management core was even able to banish a large number of captive creatures, which has verified its emergency avoidance mechanism.
After checking the ammunition reserve of the firearm in his hand, Bai Ning fired another flare towards the ceiling.
The white light made the scene on the ceiling clear, and a shuttle of bullets fell, and the tentacles that had previously hung in mid-air were cut off in response.
A large number of electric sparks shone at the fracture, indicating that the previous blackout was only an illusion.
A few more shots were fired at the electric spark, and an even stronger electric spark burst into flames, and an inexplicable smell of burnt paste faintly came.
"What's the use of attacking this, if you burn out the central control system, or even just the connecting circuit, the way out here may be cut off forever."
Just now, he was still discussing the possibility of playing an insider to get by, and now Bai Ning has started to shoot frantically to destroy the control equipment here, Jiang Yingxue really doesn't understand what his brain circuit is.
As soon as he finished speaking, the wall on his side began to slowly recess inward, and a cavity in the shape of a doorway was slowly taking shape.
Silently staring at the strange situation on his side, Jiang Yingxue's other words blocked in her throat were as hard as stones.
Play as an insider of an ancient ruin, just play with bullets?
