[I shouldn’t have any unrealistic expectations for you]
[Watch the live broadcast...one day of life is exchanged for one day of live broadcast]
Gu Xing has not paid attention to the total number of his lifespan for a long time. It seems that the total number is about to exceed 10,000 years... In addition to the part that Satomi's grandma received earlier, Haye, Eijiro, and Kumada Nobuhiko have all contributed.
Lifespan is just like money. If it exceeds a certain amount, it may just be a series of numbers.
Gu Xing once discussed with Xiaodong how to best use this considerable amount of lifespan, and whether it was possible to increase the level of some weird rules by spending a certain amount of lifespan——
The woman he met that night, who was surrounded by snow and freezing cold, gave Gu Xing a great sense of crisis.
He privately called the woman Snow Girl, and felt that this title was very appropriate.
Listening to Xiaodong's words, there are quite a few scary and weird people like Snow Maidens in the world, which gave Gu Xing a clearer understanding of his own strength.
If he could, he very much wanted to improve his strength as much as possible, whether it was the weirdness he described, the weirdness he contained, the weird clones, or the weird abilities gained through the weird traders - Dusk Crow, Lantern Fish, Gray Eyes. No matter where
One, as long as it can enhance his ability to save his life in the face of powerful monsters, it will be fine.
Xiaodong’s answer is:
[The lifespan required to upgrade the level of weird rules increases geometrically]
[You can still afford the lifespan consumed by upgrading low-level weird rules, but if you go to a higher level... you have to weigh your own capital]
[For example, the life span required to upgrade from E- to E is 1 year, but it takes 10 years to upgrade from E to E+, 100 years from E+ to D-, 1000 years from D- to D, and 1000 years from D to D+.
It takes 10,000 years, and it takes 100,000 years from D+ to C-...】
Gu Xing was dumbfounded when he heard this. He didn't expect that he had saved nearly ten thousand years, which seemed like a lot, but it was only enough to upgrade the weird rules from D to D+. It was a long way to go.
"Do the monsters have to spend so many lifespans to upgrade themselves?" Gu Xing asked.
【That's not necessary】
[This is considered a forced improvement, and it belongs to the category of cheating devices. Of course, it will cost more]
[Moreover, monsters can increase their level by eating other monsters, which will be faster]
[In addition, if you eat humans with high mental power, such as investigators, your level will rise faster]
"According to what you said, wouldn't the special investigators be a piece of fat in the eyes of the weirdos? Moreover, wouldn't the weirdos be fighting with each other? Everyone eats each other, and the level rises faster.
It’s like raising gu.”
[That’s true. But Weirdness has to rely on rules. If the rules don’t allow him to kill Weird Investigator, no matter how delicious the investigator’s life is, Weirdness can only ignore the fat in front of him. Weirdness among each other,
This is probably the case...]
"perhaps?"
【Just roughly】
【If you are not satisfied, just figure it out on your own!】
[Do you want to watch the live broadcast of the Black Hole Project? 】
"Look! Look at it..."
[While sending invitations to investigators across the country, Mikami Mashi began to gradually conduct experiments on inserting objects into holes...]
After the live broadcast started, Haye, Eijiro Kita, and Nobuhiko Kumada joined in one after another.
Even Fujino, who was staying at Chuxun's house in the distance, hurried back, but was mercilessly driven back by Gu Xing.
…
Before Mikami officially started executing the black hole project, he specifically sought the opinions of Leng He, an investigator from the Eastern Police Department who had been conducting observation experiments under black holes for a long time.
"I don't recommend this," Leng He said, "but you can do whatever you want."
Leng He, like her name, is a bit off-putting. She looks very ordinary, with a ponytail, but she has an absolutely good figure. Wearing a white coat cannot hide this fact, but rather highlights this advantage.
Mikami Mashi watched the other party's graceful figure go away, and made up his mind to continue the plan.
In fact, Mikami Masashi had the idea of black holes a long time ago. From the first day when black holes appeared, he took a helicopter to the Central Park of Lidu City to feel the mysterious atmosphere of black holes on the spot.
As the head of the National Police Agency's Bizarre Research Department, Mikami Mashi maintains a childlike curiosity about all things related to the grotesque, while also working hard to maintain the professionalism of a researcher.
Mikami Masashi has always believed that there must be a pair of god-like eyes behind the black hole, looking at the earth with compassion.
Otherwise, with the terrifying anomalies and extraordinary power of the black hole, this country and even the whole world should have fallen into an apocalypse of despair and struggle.
However, until today, a few months later, the country is still doing well. It's just that there are more and more weird cases of disorderly killings. But this phenomenon cannot be entirely attributed to the emergence of black holes.
Before the arrival of the black hole, the frequency of disorderly murderous monsters had begun to gradually increase.
A few days after the black hole appeared, Mikami Masashi led a team to conduct detailed observations and experimental deductions here, and finally formed a 159-page analysis report and submitted it to the National Police Agency. At the end of the analysis report, two suggestions were put forward:
First, there is no need to view the black hole as too scary. He may be here to help mankind. Even if he is not, there seems to be nothing we can do about him. Asking for support from the United States and detonating it with nuclear weapons is definitely not a rational option.
Second, around the black hole, carefully conduct experiments on entering various objects, creatures, and even humans to see if there will be results that are beneficial to humans. In fact, humans may even gain weird powers as a result.
Yes, today's black hole plan has been proposed as early as when black holes first appeared. However, the overall style of National Police Agency Chief Yagi is more conservative and he quickly rejected Mikami Masashi's proposal.
Mikami Mashi often thinks that if it were the police chief of the East Police Department, Hirai Kimiyama, to make this decision, I am afraid that the Bizarre Investigation Department would have obtained a large amount of real and effective experimental data by this time, and even created a large number of people who have mastered grotesque powers.
Investigators are also very likely.
Fortunately, Mikami never gave up his research on black holes.
He has always believed that as time goes by, his initial judgment will be recognized by more and more people in the industry. The current implementation of the black hole project is the result of his perseverance.
During this period of time, Mikami Mashi led the team of the Bizarre Investigation Department to formulate a detailed plan for entering the cave, conducted a comprehensive risk analysis, solicited opinions and suggestions from all aspects, and made all necessary preparations.
The first item selected to be sent into the black hole was a piece of paper with humankind's longing for the future——
[If possible, we hope that this world can return to the way it was a long time ago. Human beings, as well as all living things, can have a stable expectation for the future. We live on the earth and sing the praises of happiness and peace. Weirdness only exists in another dimension]
[If grotesqueness must exist in this world, we hope that human beings can also have the power of grotesqueness, so that they will not be like lambs waiting to be slaughtered when facing grotesqueness]
[If the above two points are all extravagant wishes, we are eager for your mercy, guidance and tips]
The content on the note has been carefully reviewed at all levels, and offensive words have been deleted as much as possible to reflect humility and piety as much as possible before finally being finalized.
Someone once suggested that the content of the note should be translated into multiple languages to increase the chance that the other party will recognize and understand it.
"Stop talking nonsense," Mikami Mashi said: "If the other party is a god, no matter what kind of writing we write, he will definitely be able to understand it."
"What if not?"
"Then he may not be able to help us."
Before officially delivering the note, they installed miniature anti-magnetic and anti-interference cameras, recording pens, flight boosters, and connectors for remote control equipment on the front and back of the note.
At the same time, they adopted Kenji Nakazawa's suggestion and requisitioned the weird [marks] collected by the Lito City Weird Investigation Section, and glued one end of the mark to a piece of paper and the other end to a temporary open-air laboratory set up in Central Park.
If the [Mark] can work, the note will be back soon. At the same time, this is also paving the way for the weird investigators who are destined to venture into the black hole in the near future.
After approval at all levels from the National Police Agency to the Public Security Commission, the experiment of delivering the note to the black hole officially began on the morning of the next day after the content of the note was finalized.
Mikami Mashi was on-site to direct the battle, and the entire National Police Agency's Bizarre Research Department participated in the battle. Yagi Masaki led a group of National Police Agency officers to watch the live broadcast from behind and conduct remote command.
On the other side of the black hole, Gu Xing also made many preparations in advance in order to avoid the unexpected situation of a note breaking into the Shibuya apartment and transmitting real-time footage through the camera.
He moved the small hole to a storage room that was currently completely empty and had no special markings. He turned off the lights and blocked the small hole with black tape.
To be on the safe side, he wore a self-made hooded black robe and a homemade wooden mask with a long nose, revealing two small holes for observing the outside world.
Even if the note does pass through the black tape, what you see is the disguised Gu Xing.
The weird people in the house, except Grandma Satomi, all got into the dark storage room.
[If you are so afraid that they will find you, you can stick your fingers in]
"Um?"
[I mean, you can do something big. Stick your finger out, or simply put a cockroach or a wasp or something in there. Scare it off to show that the beings behind the black hole are angry, and they should probably back down]
"My mood is a bit complicated now."
【I do not understand】
"Regarding Mikami Masashi's experiment," Gu Xing said, "I'm actually happy to see it succeed. In other words - I hope they can find a way to obtain weird power from the black hole. But, I don't want them to find out because of it.
My secret, do you understand?"
[So, you hope you can get into the black hole, but not into this house? That’s why you put a piece of tape on the entrance of the hole? 】
"Absolutely," Gu Xing said: "I remember that a drone and a reporter riding a flying motorcycle got into the hole before, but they disappeared and did not come through the hole... Could it be this time?
Similar results?”
【Why don't you ask me first? 】
"Then tell me."
[I don’t know either, just wait and see...]
"..."
In the center of Central Park, under the gaze of many eyes filled with different emotions, the note flew up with the help of a flight booster and flew towards the black hole in the sky.
Mikami Mashimi put his hands in his pockets and looked up at the note, which carried all his hopes at the moment. For a moment, he was even willing to sacrifice his life in exchange for the unexpected surprise the note brought.
A large screen was placed in front of Mikami Mashi and all the members of the Bizarre Investigation Department, and the various cameras on the note were being broadcast live in real time.
When the note flew so high that it was difficult to see clearly with the naked eye, everyone lowered their heads and looked at the big screen of the live broadcast.
The pixels of the camera are really clear enough. They follow the perspective of the camera and slowly approach the black hole, as if they are flying towards the black hole themselves, giving them a sense of suffocation and oppression as they step into the abyss.
"I can't stand it anymore,"
A researcher whispered to a colleague next to him, "This scene is too depressing. I don't know what is going to happen..."
"Shh-"
On the big screen of the live broadcast, the note went into the black hole...
The big screen went dark for a moment.
After a while, the vision became brighter, and the researchers opened their mouths wide, unable to believe their eyes. An incredible scene was displayed on the big screen——
The sky is boundless and the earth is vast.
There are countless strange and strange birds flying in the sky, and all kinds of strange beasts are walking, running, and crawling on the ground.
Not a single bird or strange beast is recorded in human textbooks.
Where is this? What kind of monsters are these strange beasts? A series of questions pop up in everyone's head.
They couldn't help but think that if this live broadcast was seen by people all over the world, it would definitely cause huge waves.
The operator controlled the paper and flew deeper into the world.
The birds around, fast or slow, quiet or restless, passed by the note.
After an unknown amount of time, the outline of a giant mountain range shrouded in clouds and mist was revealed in the distance.
"Fly towards that mountain range," Mikami Masashi said, "get closer."
That mountain range was really too far away. They had been flying for who knows how long, more than a month, but they still hadn't reached the foot of the mountain.
During this period, the mountain suddenly disappeared under everyone's gaze.
They were confused and puzzled by this, and lost the motivation and direction to move forward.
Soon after, the mountains appeared again. Disappeared, appeared, disappeared, appeared...
They gradually discovered that the appearance and disappearance of mountains had a rather fixed pattern. They no longer felt panic and uneasiness, and continued to fly towards the mountains resolutely.
Miraculously, the aircraft's batteries have far exceeded their expected lifespan. Just as they can continuously obtain energy in this world, the aircraft's signal is always strong.
Some people have raised questions about why drones previously put into black holes disappeared and were completely unable to transmit signals.
Some people attribute the reason to anti-interference equipment. But everyone knows that things are not that simple. At least for now, no one can give a convincing answer.
[Mark] tried several times to pull the note back to the central square, but it didn't work.
Many researchers involved in the black hole project were exhausted from the non-stop monitoring. They stopped being fully on duty and began to implement a shift plan.
One morning a month later, a researcher on duty opened his hazy sleepy eyes, looked at the big screen that he was tired of, and suddenly shouted with joy: "We're here! We're at the foot of the mountain!"
Mikami Mashi hurriedly arrived with all the personnel of the Bizarre Investigation Department. It took a long time to identify that what was hidden behind the clouds and mist was not a mountain range, but an indescribably huge humanoid monster...
