Restricted Doomsday Syndrome Chapter 331: Fate Connection (5)
331 Destiny Connection (5)
I and Omi looked in the direction of his fingers. In the shadow that was hard to detect from our angle, there was a blurry scene, like a code, but when I took out the binoculars from my backpack and looked over there At that time, the cause of blurred vision was immediately discovered.
It was a piece of excavated soil, dried blood, stumps, broken arms and internal organs scattered on the ground. It's like a battlefield swept across, leaving a series of shocking scars, and the cruel scene filled with facial features is enough to make people think of disgusting taste. A kind of grey weapon floated in that place, giving the illusion of light distortion in the blurry scene, and on the contrary made the scene even more unbearable.
I couldn't help but move my gaze to a place farther away, where I had completely lost the glamorous feeling of observing the neighborhood.
The half-destroyed building has exposed steel structure, and the surface seems to have been corroded, or it is covered by layers of white silk, and some parts even contain some kind of fungal blanket or sarcoma. A faint gray mist drifted around, and inexplicable black shadows jumped on the roof, like a fairy wandering in the concrete forest, it was a completely doomsday-like scene.
These incredible sights are completely invisible when I look away from the telescope and look directly at it with my naked eyes, like a mirage.
It's strange, I realized that I didn't even have the slightest fear, but the sense of sight reappeared from the bottom of my heart.
For an instant, there seemed to be many images and thoughts flashing through my mind, but when I looked for it carefully, they disappeared.
I handed the telescope to Omi, and turned my head subconsciously to look at the stairs in the middle of the corridor, thinking that I would see something when I walked along the stairs. There was a standing fire cabinet at the top of the stairs. I didn't think about anything, but my feet had already moved there. I didn't resist. This instinctive action disappeared in front of the fire cabinet. I seemed to hear a voice urging myself, so I took off my jacket to wrap my elbows, smashed the glass of the fire cabinet, and took out the fire axe.
I looked at the fire axe in my hand, there is nothing special about it.
Seems to be alarmed by the broken glass, and there is a dog barking upstairs. But when I was awakened by this cry, I didn't hear it again. Looking back, the barking sounded like auditory hallucinations.
The barking noise reminds me of the demon hellhound summoned a few weeks ago.
Is it in this building?
"Someone came here not long ago." Father Xi Sen suddenly spoke. I took the telescope he handed back and listened to him continue to explain: "If the ruling bureau's environment is damaged, it will gradually repair itself. And Things that do not belong to the ruling bureau, such as us, will be cleaned up by the "cleaners" after death. The cleaners will usually appear at night, and the time interval will not exceed two days. Obviously the garbage over there does not belong to the ruling bureau , And they have not been cleaned up, which also means that the time for people to fight here will not exceed two days, and it is more likely to be shortly before our arrival."
"Will such cleaners attack us?" Omi asked.
"If it is found," Father Sisson replied in the affirmative, "It's better to pray that they will not find us. Those guys are like a lot of bugs, they will be everywhere when they appear, so at night When resting, you must find a secret room. It is not safe to just block all the gaps in the room. They may get in through the gaps that they have not noticed, or they may form a huge pressure because of the large number of gatherings, which will be fragile. The part is crushed."
I and Omi will keep Father Xi Sen's advice in our hearts. Father Xi Sen is the only predecessor of the three of us who has ever been active in this huge dangerous area. As long as you are not a fool, you know that this kind of survival experience is very important.
"Now we need to investigate this building first, looking for possible secure internet terminals." Father Xi Sen began to arrange everyone's tasks. Each person was responsible for one floor, and every room could not be missed. Even so, it is not certain whether there is a secure network terminal described by Father Xi Sen, which seems to be a rare device of the Bureau of Control.
"The secure network terminal is the same as its name. It is a terminal similar to the computers we often use. The appearance is very close to the future style. As long as you are not computer-blind, you will be able to recognize it as long as you see it. However, these Not every terminal will be connected to the Internet.” Father Xi Sen described the appearance of this terminal to us, “At this time, let me know, and I will confirm whether it is connected to the Internet. After all, you don’t know the language of the ruling bureau. "
"Agawa said that wizards also use an unrecognizable language." Omi suddenly asked, "Do they use the language of the ruling bureau?"
"No, that language was created by them based on the language of the ruling bureau."
"Their technology is rooted in the technology of the ruling bureau, and the language is also rooted in the language of the ruling bureau..." Omi made a terrible guess: "They created an ecology and technology compatible with reality, and compatible with the ruling bureau by themselves. System?"
"Probably." Father Xi Sen said that he did not know much about this, but he also felt that Omi’s speculation was close to the truth: "However, because they have tampered with the technology of the Domination Bureau, everyone is quite equal to the Domination Bureau. Because of the viruses that invade the system, they are higher than us on the list of dangers." Father Xi Sen’s mouth was pulled by the muscles, but there was no feeling of gloating at all. He was silent for a while, imitating a comforting tone to us. Said: "The danger they endure in this place is much greater than ours."
Omi is not cold with this comfort, and I don't think it will improve my mood. The Mar Jones family of Doomsday Shinrikyo has been able to tamper with the technology of the ruling bureau and form a self-enclosed and self-circulating system, which in itself is a worrying thing. At least so far, I haven't heard of a second person or organization that has conducted such an in-depth analysis of the ruling bureau technology. No one knows when the Mar Jones family’s research on the ruling bureau began. It may have been going on for hundreds of years to guess in a worse direction. It is irritating no matter how you want to catch up with them in the near future. Desperate things.
However, this despair comes only from speculation, and is not certain that it is true, so I quickly put it behind. I told myself that when the fact is a reality, I shouldn't worry about what has happened. However, before they left, they couldn't help but think like this: In the beginning, what made them discover the existence of the ruling bureau? When did the ruling bureau appear in this world? None of this can be found in history, even if it is similar.
These things that have no apparent reason, suddenly appeared so grandly, the ruins of prophets, demons, secret organizations, mysterious institutions...It's like a joke made by God to people.
The third floor is where we appeared. We opened every door one after another, but did not find anything similar to technological equipment inside. There was a mess in some rooms, and it was obvious that someone had broken in. Such a scene reminded me of the heroes in the game maliciously. These people always like to ruin cabinets and cabinets where they can find it, regardless of whether the owner of the house is there or not. Around.
So we started to perform the investigation tasks separately, and I took the initiative to ask for the fourth layer, which is the highest layer. Because of the hallucinations of dog barking I heard before, and the looming sense of sight, I have always felt that there may be something on the fourth floor, it may be a **** dog, or someone else. Has the "Gaochuan" of another world line also visited this place? What did he encounter here? I couldn't help but think so.
I told this feeling to Father Omi and Father Xi Sen, but when neither of them had any intuition about the danger on the fourth floor, we still decided to act according to the original plan. I took out the pistol that had been pinned to my waist, held the axe in one hand, and walked up the stairs cautiously.
I seem to hear that dog bark again, not as clear as before, like the wind whimpering in my ears, and I can't hear it again when I listen carefully. I stepped on the stairs step by step, and there seemed to be some trivial fragments in my mind turning up with grunting bubbles.
I seem to see a boy walking on the guardrail in the corridor, doing moves on the horizontal bar that other children are afraid to do, climbing up the canopy agilely, and boldly grabbing the soft branches and swinging outside the wall. Gradually, I began to feel that the boy was myself. In these memory fragments, I played with small animals and insects without any guilt until they died, and I didn’t feel any disgusting place in these messed up corpses. , The enviable gaze of the surrounding children made me very proud, but gradually, there were fewer and fewer children around me, and in the end only myself was left with a monotonous figure. Those acts that were once regarded as brave were regarded as actions of clowns.
So, I won't do it anymore. I studied hard when others were playing, and became a top student. I tried not to involve dangerous behaviors, did not participate in sports activities, and focused on my studies. I have a dream in junior high school. I want to become a dynamics expert, which requires a high degree of education...
At this moment, I suddenly woke up. I was separated from the boy, I was still myself, and the boy was still himself, those fragments of memory sank again, and eventually disappeared. I looked at the last steps in a daze. The boy's experience is similar to mine, but when he wakes up he will realize that it is not his own past.
That is the memory of "Gao Chuan" of another world line. I thought in a trance that the Shise students might not be joking. The world line is not only a theoretical hypothesis, but a real thing. And I have walked in other worlds, and the memory of the last world line still exists in this body. This feeling is like dying from a parallel world and being born in another parallel world. Perhaps the experience has changed, but there are also things that have not changed and are familiar.
What will happen to my future? As soon as I had such an idea, I immediately shook my head to throw it away. I know that if you are distracted with this kind of problem, you cannot cope with the danger that may arise at any time in the future.
The "Gaochuan" in the other world line must have encountered the Hellhound on the fourth floor, and then killed it with the fire axe in his hand. I became so convinced.
So, in this world, is this hellhound waiting for me there too?
I stopped before stepping on the last step. The corridor is in front of me. As long as there is no step forward, the left and right sides are solid walls. There is no higher place than the fourth floor. If there are demons, this is the end of the battlefield.
But I didn't see it, my sight was blocked by the wall, and I didn't hear the hallucinating dog barking anymore. The building is still as quiet as ever. So I finally stepped into the corridor on the fourth floor. Like the third floor, the rooms on the corridor showed a symmetrical shape with a semi-open door at each end, as if inviting me in.
I hesitated and walked to the room at the far left. This room is more spacious than the other rooms side by side in the corridor, and the furnishings inside are kept intact, not as messy as the rooms on the third floor. I found a large box of figures under a bed. It was a weird doll from the Halloween series. At the bottom of the box were a few game impurities and a used battery. It suddenly occurred to me that there should be a game console in this box, but this kind of inexplicable idea came abruptly and went quickly. Just as I picked up the game impurities and wanted to check the date on it, suddenly there was a feeling of someone standing behind me.
There seemed to be a shadow from behind myself covering my body, and I quickly turned around. There was a red shadow in front of him, but the world in the blink of an eye was actually empty there, and there was no one. The sunlight is not as bright as it is in the corridor because of the angle, but there is no saying that it is shrouded in shadows.
A voice whispered in his ear:
——Where is this?
——Apocalyptic illusion.
——Why sent me here?
——To save the world.
——Who are you?
"...Carmen." I said to myself. The name seems to pop out of my mouth by itself.
Although I don't understand what kind of guy the owner of this name is, the conversation that seems like an auditory hallucination still makes me a little concerned. Why is this ruling bureau ruin called a doomsday illusion? Doesn't it actually exist? Am I here to save the world? But there is no answer here, and there is no one who can give me the answer. I put down the game magazine and left the room with a little disappointment.
I went to the room at the opposite end, which has the same furnishings, but I think it should be messier. For example, in the hall, there should be a pile of leftover human corpses. Bai Sensen's bones were brightly licked, and some were chewed into shards, even half of the meat was eaten, leaving stinky and rotten limbs and internal organs, as well as swarms of flies buzzing like dark clouds.
However, the foul smell does not exist. What is presented to me is neatly arranged and cleaned on the generally clean floor.
There is also no secure internet terminal here, and there is no personal belongings left behind like the previous room, as if I was the first person to visit.
Faced with such a clean and tidy scene, an inexplicable melancholy suddenly grew from the bottom of my heart. I stayed there for a while, turned back and left the room. When I returned to the corridor, a figure came out of the stairs. My heart beat abruptly. The figure was a college student and a social person. It was in the transition between the two, full of ambiguous age.
Wearing a red sports jacket and black fitness pants, the zipper of the jacket was not closed, revealing the white sports vest inside. The long hair is tied into a ponytail, the abdomen is exposed, the chest is large, the skin is smooth and elastic, and the whole body exudes youthful and healthy vitality.
She turned to me, perhaps because of the light, her face turned out to be fuzzy, with a complex feeling of strangeness and familiarity. She greeted me: "Achuan, have you found anything?"
It seems to be my acquaintance, but do I know her? I blinked, and the person became clear, but he was no longer the youthful vigor before. With the same tall figure, the shape of the chest in the shirt is also unusually large and straight, but the skin seems to be transparent, and the hair full of black texture is not tied up. It is draped vertically over the shoulders. The coat is a long white coat of a scientific researcher. The coat was unbuttoned, just left open, and you can see the shirt style and straight-leg pants that also exudes a rigorous atmosphere, with a white bow on the front.
This is a woman who exudes a cold and intelligent atmosphere, and also my wife, Omi.
"What happened? You seem to see other people?" Omi was sensitive to my momentary loss of consciousness.
"It's nothing~IndoMTL.com~ I will be in a daze." I shook my head and told her about the hallucinations. I never conceal my worries and things that are wrong with people around me. "You Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?"
"It doesn't make sense." Omi replied without hesitation, "Isn’t it all caused by your own memory? If you have really successfully made the jump of the world line, then there will only exist on all the world lines A Gaochuan."
I understand what she means. Actually, I have thoughts like this before, but it makes me feel more at ease to say it to a woman like Omi.
"Except for the two at the end of the corridor, I haven't opened any other rooms." I turned the subject back to business, "Is Father Xi Sen finished there too?"
"I didn't see him, I came straight up." Although Omi's tone was flat, I still felt her care, and there was a warm feeling in my heart.
So, we opened other rooms together, but disappointingly, we also didn't see anything like a computer terminal. At this time, Father Xi Sen also came up, and the results of his investigation were the same as ours. Not only did there not have a network terminal in this building, but also the first comers who were suspected to be staying here were also missing.
