Doomsday Jigsaw Game: External episode 1: The taboo of the deep sea and the returnee
The unknown land, Beihai.
"Teacher, after decades of hard work, I finally found some clues, but can this thing really dive into unknown places? Last time, Lao Zhao's submersible almost reached its limit..."
"You know, the place where we found the stele, even the twisted body can no longer withstand the water pressure, and the real forbidden place may hide many unknown terrifying creatures."
The shape of the submersible is very similar to that of a whale. It has a huge power cabin, which can be called an underwater fortress, but the cockpit is very small. It is as small as a brown-haired boy and a ten of spades, and it is a bit crowded to sit in it.
"This is something from Mech City, designed by that genius himself."
Genius?
The brown-haired boy was a little sour, after all, he himself had never received such praise. But he is not unconvinced, after all, if there is anyone in this world who can create a machine that can sneak to "hell", it must be the emperor of the mechanical city.
It's just that he is curious, the teacher should have no friendship with that emperor.
Thirty-five meters under the sea.
This is the depth that most ordinary people can dive into. The technological submarine "Black Throne" from the Mechanic City is relatively huge, and its exposed case can even be seen at 35 meters.
But with the sound of the engine, the last exposed part of the "Black Throne" was also submerged by sea water.
Like the king of the sea, come to play on the surface of the sea, and then return to the deep sea.
Two hundred and fifty meters under the sea.
In just a few seconds, the Black Throne had left the shallow area, the light became weaker, and the sea water became obviously dim.
However, the plants here can still carry out photosynthesis, and the seawater in the shallow area is relatively warmer.
In the cockpit, the Ten of Spades said:
"What's the origin of your new body?"
"I'm worried that Liulong's body will be taken back by those guys in Baichuan City. You know, they have always been wary of me, especially Nie Chongshan and Gu Qingyu. So I have to find a more suitable body. This child is called Moen."
"I think he has a relationship with me, just like my apostles... who were killed."
Cain.
As one of the very few people who survived to the post-distortion era, and may even witness the well entering a deep sleep state, and the world gradually becoming normal, Cain is not restless.
His attitude towards distortion is not as fanatical as Alpha, but he is definitely not the so-called "purification faction".
"Moen's ability is liquefaction. I guess you may need such an ability."
"Yes, I know."
I see, and I believe what you say, are two different things.
In the decades after the Distortion War ended, relying on the memory in his mind, Ten of Spades has been searching for the origin of the Distortion.
The legend about sequence 0.
I want to know what the change process from 0 to 1 is like.
I want to know, is the origin of the well really just a gathering of emotions?
I also want to know how Alpha established contact with Jing in the first place.
All of this should have become taboo with Alpha's second seal.
The tower is guarded by his contemporary friend, and even he cannot approach it.
If you want to ask Alpha any questions, you will be regarded as a person who instigates war.
Ten of Spades knows some secrets, but it's not because he asked Alpha, he doesn't want to make old K an enemy.
After Bai Yuan died, I especially didn't want to.
But regarding Sequence 0, he is the only one who knows.
Because this body was once driven by Bai Yuan and Bai Wu, and Bai Yuan once...peeped into Alpha's secret.
"Where's the cat? Didn't she want to find something with a higher authority than the puzzle pieces?" Ten of Spades sensed that there were no other people in the cabins behind.
Due to insufficient strength, Tang Jing and Lao Zhao were unable to participate in this dive, but originally Li could participate. But it seems she didn't come.
"It is said that something strange happened in Baichuan City."
"What happened?"
"It is said that someone is back."
Cain didn't know what happened, and the Ten of Spades frowned.
Of course he wouldn't believe Cain, and Cain wouldn't believe him.
For decades, the master and apprentice only used each other's words as a reference, but they would never believe it.
Of course...
Although Cain was cautious, he was still given some abilities by the teacher.
"Who is back?"
"I don't know, the cat didn't say anything, it just said that we better not die, maybe we will have a helper."
Cain didn't think much of it. Because the cat had lived no less than him, and it was normal to know some strange people.
But Cain knows one thing, cats seem to be trying to find a way to turn certain evils back into humans.
For example, Gu Qingyu.
Most degenerates can be transformed back into humans, through doomsday puzzle pieces. But Gu Qingyu is different.
Because of this, Li wanted to find more powerful rules.
So two people who couldn't match each other had a short-term cooperation.
But Ten of Spades thought of something else, but he quickly shook his head, denying the thought in his mind.
He did not participate in the follow-up of that battle, and Wu Jiu's memory cannot be faked.
Everyone thought the guy was dead.
In the final battle, he delayed Alpha and bought time for the completion of the tower formation.
But that power is not something that living beings can grasp.
Just inexplicably, the Ten of Spades suddenly wanted to return.
One thousand and one hundred meters under the sea.
In the "Black Throne", although the master and apprentice did not feel any changes.
But in fact, it is already pitch black here, and the seawater pressure has exceeded 90 standard atmospheric pressure. If people do not have equipment, they will die due to internal organs being squeezed in a short time.
Here, marine life has evolved the ability to illuminate.
And those mutated sea creatures have more abilities.
The last time Cain dived this deep, he saw an eighth-level mutated saber-toothed shark.
The Black Throne continues to dive. Although the Black Throne is huge, it is just a toy for some sea creatures.
But no creature will actually "play" with it.
As one of the most powerful beings in this world, Ten of Spades, his majesty cannot be violated.
"Speaking of which, the mechanical emperor is an existence that is difficult for anyone to approach. Although he will provide some technical support for humans, but... it is very difficult to persuade him to make such a big guy and design it himself. "
Cain is very clear that if he really survives the age of deep sleep, then all twisted creatures will be weakened.
At that time, the person who masters the core technology will be the most powerful person.
He really hopes to have a conversation with Zero.
The ten of spades knows what Cain means:
"He is not looking at my face, he is looking at Lao Bai's face."
Old Bai.
Cain didn't quite understand that the dead legend, the big man whose radiance overshadowed the teacher, might indeed have amazing abilities.
But the mechanical emperor, shouldn't it be that he doesn't care about anyone except Bai Wu?
When the name Bai Wu flashed in his mind, Cain suddenly felt a long time ago.
The father and son are no longer there.
Three thousand meters under the sea.
The temperature in this area ranges from zero to three degrees all year round, and the density of salt in the seawater is astonishing. The water pressure at this time is roughly equivalent to thirteen Statues of Liberty pressing on a person. If there are no protective measures, the creature will die instantly.
Because of this, in the deep sea, creatures have begun to grow in strange shapes.
In order to adapt to the strong pressure, their appearance can be called "weird".
The largest octopus is said to be in this sea area.
In the twisted and polluted sea area, the creatures grow more randomly.
Many creatures are like a ball of jelly being stepped on a few times casually. Because of the different strength of the step, the way it explodes is also different.
Of course, they are huge.
Cain could even feel the aura of those huge creatures through the black throne.
Everything is too quiet in the deep sea.
During the dive, Cain decided to say something:
"Teacher, are you exploring the origin of distortion just out of curiosity? Or do you want to master that power?"
Ten of Spades said:
"My words are on the dividing line between truth and lies. What's the point if you know it?"
"At least it's a reference, I just want to know, what kind of reason is worth taking the risk for you, what we're looking for may plunge the world into a bigger crisis, or let us foresee a bigger crisis Crisis."
The ten of spades is not hidden:
"I want to find a way to revive Lao Bai."
If we say that seven hundred years ago, Bai Yuan's death was the death of his body, but his soul was parasitic in his own inner world, and was later recalled by the fragments of the full moon.
Then after seven hundred years, Bai Yuan's death will mean the annihilation of body and spirit, and the dead cannot die again.
Is fragmentation irrecoverable.
What's more, the fragments of the full moon are only hidden on Bai Wu's body, and Bai Wu is already dead.
Cain finds this answer boring.
He thought the teacher would have greater ambitions. However, he did not believe these words.
Six thousand meters under the sea.
This depth is known as Hades.
It is the name of Pluto, and here is hell. The water pressure at this time is roughly equivalent to that of a person carrying fifty 747s on his back.
Of course, the most terrifying thing is not the water pressure, but the creatures here.
Even with the ten of spades, he could feel a murderous intent and chill penetrating into the marrow of his bones.
"The stele is nearby, and the Black Throne can continue to dive, there is no problem at all. But teacher... if we go further down, we may enter an area that is more dangerous than the well."
Cain's tone became serious.
Through the viewing mirror of the Black Throne, the Ten of Spades can see the huge stele.
This is just a signpost.
Obviously, there is an astonishing secret hidden in the deeper waters, but even he may not be able to pry into this secret.
The power of life and death, the power of time and space, and the power of cause and effect, these powers are enough for him to overcome most distortion obstacles.
But in the deep sea, it's completely different.
He didn't know how powerful the monsters in these sea areas were.
Cain looked at the detector in the cockpit:
"This is the location we explored last time. After interpreting the sequence text above, it does mention the 'City of the Beginning'. If we continue to dive deep, we will most likely see an underwater city."
"But that may be in the tens of thousands of meters of sea."
The deepest known sea area is not tens of thousands of meters deep.
But this does not mean that such sea areas do not exist.
Ten of Spades suddenly thought of something.
If the things inside are not truly taboo, then Alpha will definitely not be so afraid.
His determination to resurrect Bai Yuan was very strong, but it did not affect his reason.
According to the feedback from the exploration data, there are a large number of distorted inductions hidden under 10,000 meters under the seabed-evil fall.
These underwater creatures are like the guardians of the underwater city.
The ten of spades did not go further:
"Go back."
"The secret of Sequence 0...Aren't you going to explore it?"
"To explore, but now we are not qualified enough, maybe we can dive for a further distance, but that will not see the core. To see the real core, we need some help."
The Black Throne began to rise slowly.
If the world is not distorted, even if it is really 20,000 meters under the sea, he will have nothing to fear.
But it's different if there is a distortion. In the sea area of about six kilometers, it is already the real underworld.
No, even more dangerous than the underworld.
Thinking of this, Ten of Spades decisively chooses to leave. Of course, the most critical thing is—time and space force, it seems that it can't penetrate into the deeper sea area.
This is what made him decide to leave.
After seeing the horror of this place with his own eyes, the Ten of Spades decides to take a longer view.
Cain realized the seriousness of the problem.
If the teacher continues to dive, he will not consider it serious.
But the teacher chose to return, which means that this place... I'm afraid even at the teacher's level, I can't handle it.
"Shall we go directly to Baichuan?"
"Well, let's go meet the returned person that Li You said first."
"I thought it was just a small role and you wouldn't be interested."
Both Bai Wu and Bai Yuan are dead, no matter who comes to Baichuan City, Spade shouldn't be very concerned.
It can't be the resurrection of Bai Wu, can it?
Cain is actually very proud. Although the teacher once bluntly said that he is not as good as Bai Wu, he has lived longer than Bai Wu after all.
Like Alpha and Lord of the Tower.
Alpha lost, but he didn't die.
Ten of Spades also thought it shouldn't be Bai Wu, but when he returned to Baichuan City, he planned to find Jiang Yimi. Only Jiang Yimi could contact Lin Rui, and only Lin Rui could contact Old K.
Old K is now the person in charge of guarding the tower, keeping away anyone who wants to see Alpha.
Ten of Spades is not interested in Alpha, but he wants to meet someone related to Alpha.
Well one.
The submersible continued to rise, and the terrifying monsters in the deep sea gradually lost their pressure.
When the Black Throne returned to the shallow sea area, the sunlight made the sea water no longer dark. Ten of Spades looked at the screen on the detector and silently thought about how to prepare for the next dive.
He didn't know that in Baichuan City, a powerful enough helper had appeared.
At this time in the distant Baichuan City, in the Baichuan City Police Department, Lin Wurou stared at the person in front of him in astonishment.
"Why, don't you know me?"
"You, you...I...you..." Lin Wurou looked at the people who came, but couldn't think of the third word for a long time.
Then he decisively slapped himself.
The Xie family controlled the Fountain of Eternal Life. Although it was later diluted, it was enough to allow those who survived under the shadow of Alpha for quite a long time... to maintain their previous appearance.
So looking at the little girl with facial paralysis, Lin Wurou subconsciously felt a little sad.
But when he saw clearly the person next to the little girl, he suddenly thought he was being dragged into a dream by that **** Zheng Yue.
But this is definitely not Zheng Yue's dream, Lin Wurou, who is so painful, wants to scold his mother, not to mention Zheng Yue's dream~IndoMTL.com~It is also the captain who saw the human form.
"Grass!" Lin Wurou finally choked out the third word.
At this time, Yin Shuang came out with a file bag in the security hall.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, when it was time to get off work, Wang Shi yelled loudly:
"Let's go, let's drink today... why are you all standing still."
Yin Shuang's eyes fell on the same place as Lin Wurou's.
Hey, the file bag in his hand spilled all over the floor.
Wang Shi was halfway through speaking, he looked over, and immediately stayed where he was.
Lin Wurou, Wang Shi, Yin Shuang, all three looked at the man beside Yan Jiu in astonishment.
"Don't you know me?"
The man looked at these former teammates with a smile, but his smile froze quickly.
At the moment when everyone was shocked, in the corridor of the security hall, the door of the captain's room opened.
A crimson figure appeared.
Wu Jiu's gaze finally turned to the "returned man".
There was momentary astonishment in his eyes, but soon he restrained the surprise on his face, and became as calm as ever.
It's just the inner emotions, after all, it can't be completely covered up.
This kind of calm collapsed in just a second. Of course, he knew that this was not a dream, especially since the other party was still wearing the combat uniform of the investigation legion that belonged to the original decades ago.
Huge emotional fluctuations also emerged in the man's heart, because the person he admired the most... finally gave up his identity as a human being.
White mist. Gu Qingyu.
The two seem to have returned to the investigation legion branch on the second floor.
Bai Wu suppressed his emotions and said with a smile:
"Captain, I'm back."
"Okay. Welcome back to Baichuan City."
