Restricted Doomsday Syndrome Chapter 649: Retrograde
The crow is screaming, even in the endless dark abyss, we can still vaguely see countless black feathers dancing around us. Saki and I fell hand in hand in the darkness, and the soldiers of Hank's team were all wrapped in the gray silk released by Sakiya. I'm not quite sure whether the darkness formed after the collapse of the boundary line, which has no end in sight, will be the correct retreat. However, the mysterious power of destruction is close at hand, and we have nowhere to escape. At the last juncture, I can only hope that I am necessary for "Jiang"'s plan. Even if I am going to die, it will not be at this time, and this dark abyss is still in "Jiang". In control.
Even if the boundary line has collapsed, perhaps the boundary line like the base channel is just a side expression of the boundary line. This dark abyss is actually another form of the boundary line, one that can resist that A form of ideological destructive power-I can only pin my hopes on this conjecture.
So, I who jumped into the dark abyss will be dragged away from this world of consciousness by "Jiang", and Sakiya, who is tightly held by me, may also be able to take this free ride. I don't know what the final result will be, but, on the one hand is the destructive mysterious power, on the other is the endless dark abyss, I can only choose one of them. I just chose the best path in my own judgment, and I didn't even have the opportunity to think about the consequences of "if it fails".
In the dark abyss, the concept of time has completely disappeared. I don't know how long I have been waiting for someone to fall, but my consciousness is gradually becoming blurred. Before I completely lost consciousness, I felt heavy in my chest. Difficult to breathe, but the next moment. The necessity of breathing has completely disappeared. I no longer feel the role of breathing in my body. I may no longer breathe, but I also have no suffocation. All the negative feelings were completely erased at this moment, and my thinking began to spin quickly, cold and mechanical. Window after window was lit up in the dark, and body images and a large amount of flowing data appeared in front of you.
Then I opened my eyes.
What greeted us was the familiar environment, still in the elevator, the retina screen showed that we never went out, but stood mechanically in this place for a while. The presence of brain hardware and prosthetic body incarnate. Let me know for the first time that I have left the world of consciousness and returned to my normal body. I can’t wait to look back for Sakiya. Sakiya moved slightly at this time, raised his eyes to look at me, and said in a dull and confident voice, “Look. Agawa, what I said, will be by your side. ."
There is a throbbing in my heart. Even the brain hardware cannot suppress this throbbing, although it cannot form a more substantial emotion under the suppression of the brain hardware. But it still prompted me to step forward and hug her in my arms. I can't make any sound. It's like no voice can say what I want to express, but the surrounding movement can't make this time that belongs to us last. There was a faint groan from the soldiers of Hank's squad, and a rapid and hoarse scream.
Sakiya and I looked at the sound, and the soldiers of Hank's team reproduced the injuries in the boundary line, and Hank himself was almost really penetrated through the heart. Comparing the boundary line with the wound in the normal state, it can be found that the injury received in the conscious state is not exactly the same when the feedback is returned to the normal state. At the current ratio, if you really die within the boundary line and you don’t have enough will to offset this kind of conscious damage, your body in a normal state will also suffer fatal and severe damage, but you won’t die in the first place. However, if there is no timely and powerful treatment, the death of the injured will be an indisputable result.
Sakuya's gray silk is flying in the air, like an invisible hand holding a needle thread, interspersed with the soldiers' wounds for suture, she has done it once in the boundary line, and now it is just repeating the process at that time. However, even with Sakuya's first aid, it only delayed the death of these people in Hank's team. The Hank team has completely lost their combat effectiveness. They have suffered severe injuries not only physically, but also in their hearts. If they can't wake up, even if their bodies recover, they are nothing more than a group of vegetative people. And inner wounds are often harder to heal than physical injuries. I don’t know the level of medical care in the 51st District. However, in the occult, the therapeutic mystery is very rare, and the healing power involving consciousness is even more so. Even if the 51st District gathered the top mysterious organizations in Europe and the United States at this time, it is not so easy to find someone who can completely restore the Hank team.
What's more, the 51st District and the mysterious organization gathered here do not have too deep friendship. If the mysterious organization wants to rescue their own people, they also need to pay some price, and these costs may be in the 51st District. The senior management does not seem to be worth it.
If there is no coincidence, even if these people in Hank's team can still maintain a little life, they are not too far away from death. Neither I nor Saya, there is no way to save them. As for this result, I didn't have much feelings. Maybe, in the state of consciousness of the boundary line, there would be other thoughts, but at this time, I just calmly accepted the result.
On the other side, the ugly man curled up in the corner of the elevator, panting in pain. He couldn't recover for a while, but he probably couldn't die. All the clues collected before point to him as a conscious walker. Therefore, his "resurrection from the dead" is just a blindfold. I "killed" him twice, but it was just an illusion. Compared with other conscious walkers I have seen, his abilities should not fall short, and he has his own characteristics-he is the only one I have seen, and he can actively pull the target into the conscious world that I have created. The consciousness of walking is not simply walking in the consciousness of others.
Even so, his luck is really bad. Ninety percent of his injuries were affected by the birth and destruction of the realm line. The destructive power of ideology that suddenly burst out of the mental integration device, and the power of "Jiang" to corrode consciousness and create a boundary line. It is almost the highest level of mystery in this world, the mysterious power of the ugly man's ideology and the contrast between the two. It's as weak as an ant.
However, the advantage of this ugly man over the Hank team is that as a conscious walker, he must have a way to repair his conscious trauma, although the progress may be very slow. The power of the spiritual integration device is only the destruction of violence, but the power of "Jiang" is full of corrosive and infectious characteristics like a "virus". If one day. This ugly man became "Jiang"'s puppet, just like Eruka, and I was not surprised. However, I very much doubt that if "Jiang" still possesses true Jiang's characteristics, such as human aesthetics, would he still make this ugly man his own puppet.
I have no good feelings for this ugly man. This has been the case from the beginning, not only his appearance is ugly, even if I close my eyes, I can feel a vague sense of rejection, just like his existence, it is enough to make me feel uncomfortable. This is more than just disgust on the outside. It is the resistance emanating from the depths of existence. I don’t understand what happened to this ugly man. Such a profound and thorough rejection is the first time I have encountered it. Moreover, it is not the rejection of a fateful opponent, but a kind of closer to “filthiness”. feel.
If this ugly man is really a work created after years of research on the spiritual integration device in District 51. That's really not good news. Once this technology really takes shape and spreads out, maybe the "doom" of this world will become as unacceptable as a stinking ditch. It's better than direct destruction.
Sakuya is manipulating the gray silk, wrapping the soldiers of Hank's team into cocoons, leaving only breathing holes. I don’t need much reminder. Even Sakuya who is not in the state of Ashbringer has fine Mind and experience of mysterious events, the fact that "the lady in red is still hidden in the eyes of a certain soldier" will not be forgotten so simply. Sewing the soldiers' eyes so that they cannot open them, and then wrapping them in layers of gray cocoons may reduce the possibility of the girl in red coming out to a certain extent. I'm not so sure. The abilities of the girl in red are extremely special, as if it can produce some targeted changes with the environment. However, as long as she can reduce her attacks on us, we can still try it.
And I took out my revolver and pointed it at the ugly man's head. Seeing that he was so painful that he couldn't even use any of his abilities, I pulled the trigger without hesitation. However, the bullet passed through his head, not through his body, but at that moment, his body became like an illusion. His whole body was becoming transparent, and ripples appeared when the bullet passed through. After that, he raised his head and glanced at me with a gloomy expression, and gradually disappeared into the air. I looked at the metal wall in a blink of an eye, and through the mirror of my body, I determined whether I had once again entered the world of consciousness that he had woven. However, this ugly man seemed to be exhausted. This time, I really couldn’t pull us all. Into the ideological world.
There is no change in me in the mirror. The disappearance of the ugly man is only acting on his own power.
Despite the disappearance of the ugly man and the destruction of Hank's team, this ideological incident seems to have come to an end. However, the impact of the collapse of the boundary line is gradually manifesting with the passage of time. Even if you stay in this elevator, you can clearly feel the clues of this change. For example, when Sakuya and I looked at the smooth metal wall, there was an occasional moment when there were not only our figures in the mirror image, but more shadow-like outlines appeared vaguely. Na Jinghong's glimpse was not an illusion. The photo of that moment was left on the retina screen. Even without data analysis, the outlines of these black shadows can be used to identify what they are-in the boundary line. The weird existence of those wearing black robes.
As for why these things appear in the mirror image of the normal state? The answer that I understood came to my mind—the nightmare was shining into reality. The confrontation between the two ideological forces destroys the boundary line, but also blurs the boundary between the ideological state and the normal state. Maybe, because of this blurring of boundaries, there will be more confusion. Everyone who stays in the 51st District will have to face the trouble of wandering in a state of consciousness and normality. Judging from this result, if the mental integration device bursts out to attack the ideological world, it is the 51st district's initiative, then. It is not yet known whether the gains can offset the losses.
If it wasn't the 51st District that actively promoted this great change. Then, the factors behind the incident are more worth pondering. If you want to figure out the ins and outs, it may be the fastest way to join Jung and the others. This kind of incident that has almost affected the entire base is completely impossible to avoid Jung's eyeliner and his identity in the 51st District.
I stretched out my palm and pressed it on the wall where the elevator door was. Although the ugly man has disappeared, the elevator controlled by him cannot be started under normal circumstances. However, the coordinates obtained in the boundary line are enough for me to open a new "door" on this metal wall. And this "door" does not need to lead to the normal passage of the elevator, but a deeper place. The deeper you go, the higher your chances of meeting other people. Regardless of the reason, the explosion of the power of the spiritual integration device will inevitably make all parties act more quickly. More targeted.
I think there are many powerful mystery holders at this time, heading toward the depths of the base, where the mental integration device that was able to determine the approximate location due to the explosion of power is located. It is conceivable that after this incident, if the 51st District wanted to hide this spiritual integration device again. It is necessary to relocate the location-when I think of this, the brain hardware gives another possibility: everything that happened before may be deliberately carried out by some people, and the persecution of the 51st area will let the spirit Exposure of the approximate location of the integrated device is not the final result. The real goal may be to force the 51st District to transfer the mental integration device. Because even if the previous hiding place is exposed, it has formed a very strong defense capability due to years of operation. Once transferred, its defense power will be in a short period of time during the transfer process and after entering the new hiding place. Relatively fragile.
Strikes into the area where the mental integration device was originally stored may also be successful, but it may be easier to do it during or after the transfer.
The power of the mental integration device has exploded. Even if the 51st District has corresponding targeted measures, it will still cause a certain degree of decline in the defense power of the entire base. The 51st District will never know about the existence of "Jiang", and that it connects the subconscious minds of everyone in the base to create a world of consciousness with such a huge boundary line. The mental integration device hurts not only the consciousness of "some people with a heart", but the scope of damage will far exceed everyone's imagination. Just like Sakuya and I, there will not be too many people who have not been harmed in this big incident.
The ratio of the various forces that want to seize the spiritual integration device is likely to undergo a critical change after the collapse of the boundary line.
This is a rare opportunity for all those who have other intentions.
For us, this is naturally the same.
"Then, let's try it." I said to myself, pulling the coordinates in, and the metal wall held by my palm suddenly appeared in the usual blue light circuit, and the "door" formed in the breathing room. I stepped into it without hesitation, and then arrived at a new passage, like an elevator bringing me here, but I know that the original "door" of the elevator and the "door" I opened, the area reached is Totally different.
Sakiya appeared next to me holding the gray cocoon hanging in the air. She looked like she was carrying the wounded of Hank's team. It was indeed a bit eye-catching. However, at this time, this passage is temporarily except for us. In addition, there are no more people, and naturally they will not feel the alternative look. The coordinates I use will gradually approach the place where the boundary of destruction that we encountered the earliest when the spiritual integration device exploded in the boundary line. The closer to such a deep place, the more obvious the impact of the collapse of the boundary line on the normal base environment, a large number of base structures used for camouflage are losing their role ~ IndoMTL.com ~ in the retina screen, in the boundary line Our base structure is gradually overlapping with the base structure under normal conditions, and many "diversions" and "doors" leading to the right direction are exposed in our field of vision.
The terrain is undergoing drastic changes, but the base's inherent defense mechanism is still operating. Therefore, such changes appear to be very frequent, making people feel as if they are walking in an unreal dream. For the base that only resumed normal operations not long ago, the impact of the underlying structure of the base this time is undoubtedly more profound than the previous man-made destruction of certain mechanisms.
"Agawa." Sakiya reminded me in a low voice that a group of weird existences appeared beside him, in this base where the boundary between consciousness and normality had become blurred. These guys, who seemed incomparably weird in their forms and actions, became even more erratic. The phenomenon observed by the linkage determination is not much different from what can be seen by the naked eye. The weird existences that appeared around us disappeared in an instant. Then, they appeared in the mirror image reflected by the metal wall. As for the corresponding positions in the normal environment, they could not find their tracks at all.
Even if you have a brain hardware, a retina screen, and coordinates from the boundary line, it is not so easy to adapt to such frequent and drastic changes without being able to completely lock in the regular environment.
