Restricted Doomsday Syndrome Chapter 389: The answer

To reach the other side of the metal pipeline fault, you can only rely on a giant like a construction machine, although its current state does not look very good. Its body is emitting thick black smoke. In the final attack, one-third of the part is disintegrated, and every movement will produce a squeaking sound, just like coins rolling in an empty piggy bank. , From time to time you can see the parts of the linkage structure falling down. Despite the same rigid body, the internal structure of the construction machine is more mechanical than the security guard. It is very much in line with the definition of "machine" in the normal world.

However, unlike ordinary machines, it seems to have a certain "wisdom". Perhaps the part of the software that drives this huge body has a certain degree of intelligence. Although it had to crawl down, I still felt like an ant when I stood in front of it. Because of the serious damage of the construction machine, I can't tell where it is the head. I kicked its limbs vigorously, hoping it could take a glance here, but it only made intermittent ticking sounds, trying to stretch its forelimbs, as if it wanted to cross the fault and head to the hub that looked like a tall tower.

Mysterious information is calling it.

I beckoned to Gregya and Tritty, "Let's climb up." I said to them.

The construction machine does its own thing, ignoring us crawling on it. I don't know if it is because it thinks we are not threatened, or it has been unable to see or perceive our existence. We entered the interior of the construction machine where most of the linkage structure was destroyed, as if we had entered a factory building. The wires inside kept swaying and sparks flickered at the cross section. This made us a little worried whether this behemoth would suddenly stop functioning when it crossed the fault and just fell.

I don't have the supernatural powers of Father Xi Sen. If you fall, even if you can survive, there is no guarantee that Gregya and Tritty will survive. In this fear, the body of the construction machine suddenly moved forward, and the scenery quickly swept back, as if it had exhausted the last bit of strength, flew to the other end of the fault through its forelimbs. Then, hanging on the edge of the fault, the body once again collapsed in a large area.

We hurriedly crawled out of its body. Climb up along the forelegs that cling to the edge of the fault. Gregya was a little emotional. She said that she couldn't help feeling sad when she heard the ticking sound of the construction machine. The construction machine finally came to the end of life when we climbed onto the metal tube, and its lower abdomen was completely separated from the body. The whole piece fell off downwards, the joints of the forelimbs also broke, and the remaining half of the body fell far into the metal pipe below, making a muffled sound.

Now, there is only one forelimb hanging in front of us. Many nerve and muscle-like wires and parts hang down from the part that was originally connected to the body. It is constantly swaying, like a lonely swing.

The encounter and separation between us and this construction machine was very short, but perhaps we faced the same enemy and looked for the same call. Walking on the same road, so I can't help but produce a kind of melancholy of companionship and death. but. We have to keep going. Tower-shaped hub, the source of mysterious signals and red light. Just in front of us just over a hundred meters away.

When I arrived at the bottom of the hub, I realized that it was actually a building-a prismatic obelisk building, about forty meters high, showing a structure with a wide bottom and a pointed top, and many thinner metal tubes from above. The thick metal tube stretched out, bent in a strange shape, and inserted into the building. It is a building because we see a door at the base, or the rectangular outline formed by a gap recessed inward, is like a door.

I tried to push it, but the door didn't move. Just when Gregya and I thought it was just a decoration, Tritty spotted a hidden door the size of a 14-inch screen. Probably because of the broken lock, Tritty immediately opened it to the outside when she touched it. Inside is embedded a terminal device with a slender screen, like a bank teller machine. The Jiugong grid at the bottom of the screen is glowing with a faint red light, it seems to be a keyboard, and there is a card slot on the right, but we don't have any cards to swipe.

We all guessed, perhaps through this terminal to open the door. According to Father Xi Sen, I can use some terminals in the 33rd district to connect to the secure network system for authorization authentication. Although this place is not a residential area, it should also belong to the 33rd district. If I can get permission, maybe I can open this strange building.

But what should I do? I don’t understand the text on the screen at all. I just took a chance. I tried to press the options on the screen with my instinct. Several options that didn’t know their functions disappeared, and more options appeared. Then, an empty bar popped up on the terminal. It seems to be asking me to enter a password.

"What happens if the password is wrong?" Gregya asked suddenly. We glanced at each other and imagined the program counterattack caused by the wrong password in the novel and video.

"Three chances...probably." Tritty shrugged and said as if joking.

In any case, I want to try it at least until I reach the bottom line of three times. So, I did.

For the first time, I moved the Jiugongge keyboard from top to bottom in my heart, grouped them according to the number pattern commonly used in the normal world, and then entered my birthday.

The second time, according to the nine-square-grid keyboard of the mobile phone, divide the position of the letter in the heart and enter your name.

There was no chance for the third time. After the second input, the door unexpectedly slid open to the sides. The cold white mist poured out from inside, and Gregya shuddered. The temperature inside made us think it was an ice storehouse. We did not go in immediately, watching the scene inside. The cold fog quickly dissipated in the rich red light, and the temperature began to warm up at a noticeable speed.

Behind the gate is a wide room with all kinds of weird machinery. Human figures like clothes models in the normal world stand in it, and they are piled up in a corner. When they were blinded in their vision, they almost made us mistakenly believe that they were real people, but soon we discovered that most of the dolls only have the upper half of their bodies. Or lost both arms. The atmosphere in the room is a bit strange because of the existence of these dolls.

No living creatures were seen. One side of the room was inlaid with a transparent observation mirror, and a cylindrical container was placed on the other side of the mirror. The container was filled with yellow liquid, and the cheongsam was constantly floating from below. There is an indicator light flashing on the base under the container. Obviously, it is working.

No operator is seen. What looked like a table was placed in a vase with an unknown flower that had withered, and rectangular objects. When I first saw these rectangular objects, I couldn't help but recall the energy blocks that Father Xi Sen told me about supplementing the nutrients and water needed by the human body. Now, our survival supplies are guaranteed.

Gregya crossed the gate line boldly. A step forward was taken, but something in the room was triggered by this action. The red light in the entire room began to flicker violently, and Gregya was taken aback, before she recovered. I have pulled her behind me hard.

The ceiling in the middle of the room has been opened, and a large number of parts and wires have fallen down, and soon spliced ​​into a one-meter-high metal human-shaped head in our eyes. The eyes of this head are partially covered by a piece of metal, like a blind man covered with a black eye cloth. The wires and brackets connecting the head are its neck.

Although it is the appearance of a blind man. But it humanely made a "sniff" movement in the air, and then turned its face around, as if it was using smell to determine our position.

Does something obviously a machine have a sense of smell? Its realistic and smooth movements make us subconsciously think so.

Although it hasn't been fierce behavior yet. But I am still on guard against it. Even if it seems invisible, I still hold the weapon behind me. And motioned the two girls to leave the front door.

The mechanical head tilted its head, as if expressing a kind of human curiosity. maybe. It's wondering who we are. This building looks like no one has been here for a long time. I'm not sure if the mysterious existence that sent the signal is still alive.

I looked at each other with the mechanical head for a while, and it began to make a series of cadences, which I knew was the language of the ruling bureau. After it stopped, it seemed to be looking forward to my answer, but I still could only remain silent. It was so quiet for a while, and it made a new sound again, this time it was a ticking sound similar to the construction machine and the mysterious signal. Similarly, I cannot give any answer.

There was silence for a while again, and the facial expression on the mechanical head suddenly became ugly. It grows its mouth to an extent that ordinary humans can’t do. It’s like a security guard, with a barrel sticking out of its throat, but this barrel is stronger than that of an ordinary security guard—a muzzle in the center, The six outer muzzles are distributed like a flower heart at the front end of the barrel with thick legs.

A heavy machine gun! I immediately entered an explosive state and rushed to the side.

In the slowly and heavy world, the barrel of the gun began to rotate, making a deep sizzling sound, the flames continued to bloom, and a particle bomb was sprayed out like a storm and grazed from my back.

I didn't completely leave the front of the gate, I just crawled down and sprinted into the building from a lower position. This mechanical head is obviously the guardian inside the building. I feel that since this mechanical head is regarded as an enemy, it will not give up its mission until we are sure that we are completely gone. Once we leave completely, there may be no chance to enter this building again.

However, there are things we need in this building, even those energy bars.

I think I can deal with it because its neck, which is composed of only wires and brackets, does not cover the armor. Maybe I can cut them off with a folding knife.

The mechanical head has stronger firepower than ordinary security guards, and it only needs to hold a gate. If you change to another adventurer, it will take a lot of work to break through this line of defense. However, in the face of the speed I am proud of, the speed at which it turned its muzzle was still too late to stop my surprise attack.

Before it locked my position for the second time, I had broken into the building and gained more space to move. I kept running to the side and approached it along an arc path. Once I stopped for a while, I would be sifted by the bullet rain chasing behind my ass. In fact, the bullet bounced back after hitting the ground and walls, which also caused me not much trouble.

After turning around the metal head for a half circle, I finally came to the back of its head. After losing the goal. The shooting of the mechanical head stopped, and it began to express its emotions with a kind of human doubt. However, before it reacted, I had already handed over my body to instinct. Swing seventeen divisions towards those dense wires and supports.

The bracket is very hard, and the reaction force when it is blocked is clearly transmitted to the palm of the hand, but the wires are as fragile as I thought, and one after another broke under the blade.

The mechanical head became irritable and agitated, and made a series of sharp sounds, but it twitched quickly, and his face rose high. As the wires were all cut, the head slowly drooped as well as dying. A mechanical head hung in the air only with a stent. It's like a broken puppet, no longer feels dangerous.

I was still a little worried, and patiently used a folding knife to pry the place where the head and the bracket were connected, and dismembered the entire metal head.

Until then. I shouted to the two women outside the door: "You can come in." As a result, as soon as they entered the door, they were startled by the dismembered metal heads. A lifelike huge head lying on the ground, this scene is indeed a bit disgusting. Gregya turned critically away and rounded to the table. Staring curiously at those energy bars.

"Are these really edible?" she asked.

"I don't know, maybe you can try it." Tritty said in a relaxed tone: "Then tell us what it tastes like."

Although she heard Tritty's ridiculous tone, Gregya seemed to be a little moved, and she grabbed an energy bar. Some danced heavily in the air, but he was even more hesitant to take a bite. "It's as heavy as a block of lead," she said. And the appearance of these energy bars is also lead-grey.

I picked up one myself and hesitated. But under a certain emotional trend, I took a bite in one go. It took me a lot of strength to bite off a small piece of the energy bar's head. However, when this part of the energy block comes into contact with saliva, it quickly decomposes into fine crumbs, which feels like eating crispy biscuits. However, there is a sensation of water that is different from saliva spreading along the mouth.

With this moist feeling, I swallowed the food in my mouth very smoothly.

"What's the smell?" Gregya urged.

"No smell." I said. It is true that there is no taste at all, but once you eat it, it is like a sip of water and a feeling of fullness at the same time. According to this amount, only one-tenth of an energy bar can satisfy an adult's food intake.

Gregya and Tritty also tried to take a bite. Although they frowned because of the lack of flavor, they quickly thought of its advantages. There are a total of thirteen energy bars on this table, which means that we get three meals a day for three people, which is enough water and food for thirteen days.

After we distributed the spoils, we scattered them to observe the internal structure of the building. I first went to the observation wall and looked at the isolated room through the transparent mirror wall, but there was nothing strange in it except for the cylindrical container that was large enough to hold one person.

At this moment, I suddenly realized that the mysterious signal seemed to disappear after the battle with the mechanical head was over. I quickly walked back to the center of the mechanical head, looked up at the hollow in the ceiling, tried to find something, and then flipped the mechanical head, but there was no evidence to prove my guess—the mysterious signal was actually sent by this guy. .

In a sense, it is indeed trapped here, but in my opinion, this mysterious signal is more like a bait released by it with a phishing mentality.

I didn't tell the two women about this speculation because I think they would be emotional about it. There was once a construction machine "dead" not far away, and his party was separated from his two companions. If the final answer was so dark and meaningless, it would be better to never know.

"These dolls look exactly like the ones outside." Gregya looked at the dolls of different shapes curiously, "Why are they placed in this place? I think the owner here must be very lonely. "

"Isn't the owner of this metal head here?" I kicked the metal head~IndoMTL.com~ in a joking tone. But in fact, I cannot deny this possibility.

"Of course it's impossible." Gregya said: "It's too ugly and neurotic. How can this monster understand the feeling of loneliness?"

I glanced at Tritty, she stared at the metal head thoughtfully.

"Hey! Here we are!" Gregya turned around and shouted, "We received your signal and paid a great price to come here. If you can hear me Voice, please come out and talk to us. We are not enemies, we just want to leave here! Hey, can anyone hear me?"

Her voice echoed in the empty room, and there was silence in response to her. Gregya lowered her head and shrugged her shoulders slightly. I thought she seemed to be crying. Perhaps, as she herself said, in order to arrive here, in order to find a glimmer of hope, along the way, she has endured too much danger and torture for an ordinary girl.

Tritty stepped forward, did not speak, nor looked at her face, but just clung to her shoulders.

"There is nothing here. We should go now." I said to them. (To be continued...)
