Restricted Doomsday Syndrome Chapter 394: New individual (2)

---------..

I looked at the surrounding environment.

Are these people...

The little man I've been following, stood on the edge of the pillar, staring at me motionlessly. It didn't take out a weapon, but it still made people feel an aura of being ready to attack. So far, I still haven't seen its true face. Although it can be confirmed that it is a human form, the details under the robes are really unimaginable.

Except for it, there seems to be no more people in this place.

There is a sound like a device starting up.

The ring on the pillar began to work, something came up, and then it was found to be a white statue.

Statues of women.

The specific contours of the body and facial features have been outlined, but it cannot be called a human, because the body is not organic flesh and blood, but shows the luster of inorganic matter. The white body is not metal or plastic, but it is I am very familiar with the substance.

The structure-I talk to myself.

Probably this strange guy fits my imagination of "completely transformed body", so I can't help but feel intimacy. Of course, this feeling does not make me hesitate when I need to use force-I There is no doubt about this, because the brain hardware and 60% of the prosthetic body have always maintained such a cold and rational, and it made me clearly aware that the other party is also the same.

However, just because it has the same structure and the same degree of rational thinking, to a certain extent, I and it, who belong to the same kind, must have more opportunities to communicate.

It’s way of appearance makes people feel like it is the master of the hall. The little leader.

Only the upper body appears on the cylindrical base. I don't know whether the lower body is under the base or the part below the waist has been integrated with the base. Only half of her arm can be seen from this direction. The part below the elbow is hidden in layers of pipes. These pipes seem to be connected to her back and even the back of her head. Some of the pipes even act as her. s hair.

These pipes seem to be connected to the light loops and wire guides, and they are also the end points of these light loops and wire guides. Rather than saying that this female individual, which is almost entirely composed of structures, is the owner of this room, it is better to say that the entire room is a part of her body.

She lowered her head as if she was asleep.

The little man walked behind her side. Standing there quietly like a guard, his head lowered slightly, but it felt more respectful than respectful. Did it fall asleep—a kind of silence as if the switch turned off automatically, very mechanically.

At this moment, the female structure was activated, and her head lifted up to face me, allowing me to clearly see a stream of data-linked light in the outline of her eyes. Immediately afterwards, she uttered a biologically soft voice to me.

"..."

Even if I have brain hardware, I still can't understand her language. To prevent being misunderstood, I did not answer, nor shook or nodded. He just threw the metal nail in his hand aside, spreading his hands to indicate that he did not have any malice.

The data in the eyes of the female structure once again appeared and circulated, and then a data cable with a needle-like interface was formed by three wires on the floor near me. The data line is held by an invisible force, and the interface is aimed at me and slowly approached, as if to show that this behavior is also not malicious, so the movement of these data lines is very gentle. The female structure said something during it. Although I don’t understand, a dialog box pops up on the retina screen:

——Applying for external connection. Is it allowed?

I confirmed the connection without hesitating for too long. What can I do if I don’t do this at this time? I began to realize that the interface at the back of the neck was prepared for this kind of time, so I lifted my hair up and turned my back to the needle-like interface of the data cable so that it can be inserted accurately.

It didn't make me wait too long. The data line that I got permission from my action was plugged into the interface three seconds later. There is a strange feeling, quite different from the feeling of getting an injection when sick. Although there is also the discomfort of inserting a foreign body, it is more of a feeling of electric current entering the brain along the cervical spine. The dialog box of the retina screen changes again:

——Dock confirmation, data transmission in progress.

"Can you hear me?" A gentle voice that is unique to women is conveyed to the mind. This gentle voice makes people unable to feel the unique characteristics of each person, more like it is sampled The generated template sound ray. And this voice is not directly conveyed. Although I don’t understand the principle, I seem to be able to understand the process of its generation: what comes is data, which appears in a dialog box on the retina screen in the form of a text dialogue. Of course, it is the rule of the game. The unique language, after intuitively understanding its meaning, through some channels, extracts the characteristics of the "tone" and "voice" in the data, and reorganizes it into a human voice in the normal world that I can understand.

However, I have some doubts that these characteristics such as "tone" and "voice line" are largely based on my subjectivity. After seeing her appearance, I subconsciously felt that her voice was like this, so I generated such a voice.

This is also a representation of the combination of subjective consciousness and objective formula.

"Yes, I can hear it." I answered in my mind, and then normal human language was transformed into data in a similar way and communicated to the other party. In this way, normal communication is established.

"It's amazing. I didn't expect to meet someone who is the same as me... I am of the same kind, at least 60% of them are."

I'm not sure, whether the "person" she said refers to human beings, maybe it's just that it's easier to understand it in this way.

"You mean semanization?" In order to get closer, I deliberately replied in the same "mechanized" tone, "This is the technology that governs the bureau. Who is he?"

"Not the people who ruled the bureau... used to be, but after they gave up everything here, the city and the people, they no longer are. We have been abandoned, and there is no need to find it again."

These words can make people think of many things. but. The specific details are not an important matter, and more importantly, it is not something I need to care about. As long as these words can convince me, it is enough that we have the possibility of cooperation with each other. Obviously, the situation is moving on the bright side.

"You are communicating with demons?" I tentatively asked this question, "Those spider silks and cocoons are the same substance..."

"Unfortunately, this is not what we did." The other party quickly interrupted me, "These are just the materials collected in this city. We need these materials to maintain our existence-life and growth. And survival. Perhaps for your security guards, this is unimaginable, but because the Bureau of Rule has blocked the 33rd district, we have to draw on this."

"I don't know the situation here, as you can see. I am different from ordinary security guards."

"Yes, I have never seen a security guard like You, who has both a human appearance and human intelligence. At first, I couldn't even imagine that You would be a security guard. The appearance looks like you. It's no different from a normal person." Her words made me wonder, are the "humans" she said are really humans? She continued: "However, the data from my detection device shows that you do have some of the characteristics of security guards. So. Who the **** is you? Why are you here? Is the Reign Bureau planning to reclaim this city?"

"As you saw, I was transformed into a temporary security guard, but the reason why I came here was only an accident..." I began to compose false lies, and said that I also had some Confused, "Maybe it’s not an accident, I’m not sure. Most of my memory data has been corrupted and cannot be read, except for the ruling bureau. It’s hard to imagine anyone else possessing such technology. Maybe they require me to Observing and performing some tasks in the 33rd area, but because of some accidents, I had to give up halfway." I paused, looked at the female structure and said: "However, after seeing you. I think you may have Such technology."

"So, was it just an accident?" The other party said as if to himself.

"Who is you exactly? The technology of the structure. And the degree of semaphore... Except not in the organization, you already have all the characteristics of a security guard." I kept thinking about the information hidden in the other party's words. , While taking advantage of the other party’s lack of information to fabricate a more specific identity for himself-a special security guard who was performing a secret operation but lost most of his data due to an accident and urgently needed help.

The identity of a temporary security guard is not easy to keep secret, but if one's attitude is unreasonably strong or weak, it may make the other person scrupulous. It is conceivable that they have lived in this abandoned city for a long time. Because of their own experience, they no longer recognize the management of the ruling bureau, and they even deal with the security guards very stubbornly and full of hatred.

A temporary security guard who has lost his memory and may even be abandoned should make them feel worthwhile.

In order to maintain the identity of the security guard, even if the structure of the ruling bureau is not clear, a considerable degree of understanding must be shown in some details. To this end, I must use all the information I receive to make instant speculations, and then use speculations to answer the other party's questions, and release some information to mislead them. This is of course full of risks, but if you want to get some gains in a dangerous place, you will naturally do something full of risks.

Different from pioneering adventurers, my actions are not perceptual behaviors of "adventurous personality", but are dominated by computational rationality.

"I’m a researcher from the former Domination Bureau’s research organization. I’m doing research on gray particles in this urban area. I know what’s happening in this area. In order to survive, I have to rely on some technical methods to transform myself. ...And this child." With that said, her head seemed to turn slightly, but the amplitude was so small that she could barely see it. I felt that she seemed to want to see the little man next to her, "I used to be involved. The security system technology of the Domination Bureau has been updated. However, it is obvious that I have been closed in this abandoned area for too long. The technology used by the Domination Bureau and my technology have already disagreeed... Now, you can tell me that I arrived here. How was the situation of the ruling bureau before here?"

Such questions are simply following my thoughts. This guy's way of thinking seems to be more rigid than I feel, and even a little rigid.

"The devil is invading the Domination Bureau. We have to close many districts. Moreover, the security system has a problem." I replied, "However, my system and data are very badly damaged. Determine how long it has been since I left."

"There is a permission problem in the security system?" The female construct repeated this, as if lost in thought, the light data link in the eyes once again circulated rapidly, "The ruling bureau needs to face not only the devil, but the security system Permission issues, probably not all caused by demons."

"What do you mean?"

"The authority management of the security system has been optimized many times. When I was still under the ruling bureau, everyone had anticipated the situation of the devil out of control and optimized the security system." She said, "So. It should be someone who intruded into the security system from the inside. Although it failed to completely destroy the security system, it still had a huge impact. That's it... I understand that the loss of control of the security system may be the reason why they closed the city. We were right at the beginning. The optimization of the security system has been done too much. If we give us some more time, we may be able to make corrections. But there is no way. The security system that has been out of control is no longer the umbrella of the ruling bureau. It will treat all those who do not meet the safety list. Things to clean up."

"Can the security system be turned off?" I asked.

"Impossible, unless all areas managed by the Domination Bureau are completely destroyed... But this is impossible because the security system is out of control. Many things are no longer controlled. Here, the construction machinery has also lost control. It is expected that the same situation will occur in other places. Before they are completely destroyed, they will only be constructed without hesitation, without interruption, and without a plan. Therefore, now that the ability to connect to the secure network is lost, I cannot be sure. , The area of ​​the ruling bureau has been expanded to what extent. These construction machines will not only build rooms and passages, but also build extensions of the security system. This is the construction plan that was used when the security system was manufactured."

"Can't you connect to the Internet normally here?" I confirmed again.

"Yes, all systems including the life support system have been shut down before the ruling bureau is withdrawn." The humanoid structure replied, "We have taken such a long time to use the materials left in the city. Including. Those that you saw before, tried to open and maintain the urban system. Most of them have failed. As you have seen, it is hard to restore the urban area to a level that allows people to move normally, but here we are the only ones left. There are two of them. Even after reformation, there is no guarantee that we will die. We are isolated and helpless, but we need to face a stronger enemy. We do not have any reinforcements, but need to resist the cleaning of the security system...We are no longer on the safety list."

Although her tone is still so mechanically flat, I can still feel what is happening to the aborigines here.

This is a sad and helpless story.

"What happened here?" I couldn't help asking. Although there is no answer in the diaries of the aborigines, I believe that the answer will be surely obtained from the researchers of the original Bureau of Reign, who has completely changed his life form and has survived all the time. And she will definitely answer me, because so far, both of us in the same situation can already confirm the cooperative relationship.

"Don't you know?" She asked back, "I think the security guards of the Bureau of Domination should understand the ins and outs of these events. Although you have lost the memory data, I still believe that you represent the will of the Bureau of Domination. Although they have lost control of the security system, they still started the urban recycling plan. Isn’t that the case?"

"I don't know. In my memory, there is no mission in this area." I said, "So, I hope to be able to reconnect to the secure network. Although the security system is out of control, I should still be on the security list. , May be able to reconnect to the ruling bureau through the Internet, and understand why I came here."

"Unfortunately, we are still trying in terms of networking." Female Constructors said: "Lack of some technology and materials~IndoMTL.com~If you want to speed up repairs, you need to get those missing things for us ."

"I can collect the necessary technology and materials for you, but before that, I need to get information about this place."

The female structure looked at me at each other, but her gaze—if she had gaze in this form—was not entirely on me. In her eyes, the light of data turned away again, and after that, she replied: "I understand, we will provide information for you, and then...we will lead the way for you. She has been doing the same before. At work, I am very familiar with this city, and with your help, our progress should be accelerated."

畀——Is this the little man's name? What a peculiar name. I looked at the little man, and judging from the words translated from the brain hardware, this guy turned out to be a female...maybe, a girl. Are there only these two women left among the aborigines of the 33rd district?

"Don't underestimate her because of her appearance." The female construct said: "I have lived here with me for a long time. When everyone else has died, she is the only one who survived. Although she is a little short, it is only because of the transformation of the relationship and the need for action."(..)
