"This?! What about you, Boss Peng, how many have you seen?"
Lao Peng said nothing and silently raised two fingers.
"Tsk..." Guan Dehou felt a little troubled.
One of those things is troublesome enough, but if there are more, with three of them, three pistols, and twenty rounds of ammunition, wouldn't it mean that they are seeking death?
"How many more times can emp be used?" Guan Dehou asked.
"If you don't start it at full power, you can still use it twice."
Twice... Guan De kindly said: "Well, just in case, let's not separate again."
"Well, Brother De, where should we go next?" Jing Quan asked.
Guan Dehou looked up at the top of the church and said, "We are not going anywhere. We are just waiting in the bell tower on the top of the church to watch the show."
"A good show?" Jing Quan didn't understand.
Lao Peng already understood. He took out a few anti-infantry broadsword thunders from his bag and said: "Then I will block all the entrances and exits first."
"Well, Jingquan, you go up and take a look first, I'll help you look out for you."
"Okay." Jingquan said and went straight upstairs.
Although he was injured just now, it did not prevent him from climbing higher. He had reached the third floor after just a few ups and downs.
Guan Dehou quietly walked to the church door and released a group of mini reconnaissance planes.
The palm-sized mini reconnaissance aircraft made a buzzing sound like a bee and quickly disappeared into the night.
Guan Dehou raised his wrist and looked at the footage returned by the reconnaissance plane, confirming that there were at least a dozen people active in the town, including the strange "woman" he and Lao Peng had bumped into.
Their energy level is very high, so even at midnight, the thermal imaging of a reconnaissance plane can easily capture their traces. But the more this happens, the more Guan Dehou is sure that they are not products of this era.
'It would be great if Shaoan was here...' Guan Dehou thought to himself. He went into danger alone, not out of impulsiveness. It was only after he reached the center of this dangerous place that Guan Dehou felt that it was very painful to have no one to discuss with him.
"Brother De."
When he was thinking about something, Jing Quan shouted.
Guan Dehou was shocked when he heard this: "What's wrong?"
"I found something on the roof of the building. Come up and take a look."
"Something? What something?"
"I'm not sure, but it doesn't look like something that should exist in reality."
"It doesn't exist in reality?!" Guan Dehou was shocked when he heard this, and then hurriedly followed the stairs to the bell tower.
When he reached the top of the building, Guan Dehou saw Jing Quan squatting in front of a strange square box.
When I got closer, I saw that this thing was still faintly illuminated.
"Brother De, look, isn't this thing a little weird?" Jing Quan said and wanted to touch it with his hands.
Upon seeing this, Guan Dehou immediately stopped him and said: "Don't move!"
Jing Quan was startled, then smiled and said: "Brother De, don't worry, I wiped this thing before you came up, it'll be fine."
fine?
Guan Dehou felt that he was overreacting now. He walked closer and squatted in front of the square "box" like Jing Quan.
When he got closer, Guan Dehou realized that this thing was complete on all sides. It was not a box, but more like a perfectly cut marble.
Guan Dehou was sure that he had never seen anything like it before, but he vaguely felt that this thing seemed familiar.
This felt strange, so he tentatively raised his hand and touched the "mysterious cube" in front of him.
As a result, the moment he came into contact with the "Mysterious Cube", a dark arm suddenly poked out of the "Mysterious Cube", and then pulled Guan Dehou forward violently.
Before Guan Dehou could react, he felt as if he had fallen into an abyss.
The speed of falling is extremely fast.
In the blink of an eye, the world around him disappeared.
When Guan Dehou landed screaming, he found that everything around him had become foggy, as if he had been possessed by an evil spirit and entered a mass grave by mistake.
"Where is this?" Guan Dehou felt his scalp numb. Although he was not afraid of ghosts, he still believed in what the older generation said.
But when he actually experienced it himself, he still found it a bit unbelievable.
He slowly stood up and looked around.
here it is……
"Hahahaha..." A crisp laughter came from behind Guan Dehou.
Guan Dehou subconsciously took out his weapon and turned around to aim at the voice.
As a result, he saw a gray shadow that looked like a child running past him while laughing.
Guan Dehou was stunned: 'What is this? A ghost?'
When he thought of this, Guan Dehou suddenly realized that he might be dead.
So he immediately pinched himself.
pain!
"What's going on?" Guan Dehou looked at his hands.
Black and white...black and white?!
Guan Dehou touched his face again.
Cold...cold?!
What's going on with your sister?!
When I was wondering, the sky suddenly changed color, as if there was going to be thunder, but no thunder was heard.
Guan Dehou looked up at the sky, and found many figures hanging in the sky when the sky flickered!
'What the hell is this?!'
The figures with their bodies stretched out and suspended about twenty meters in the air were like people drowning in the water. Their bodies were motionless, with only a faint line connecting them to the ground.
Following that line, Guan Dehou discovered that
There were many corpses lying on the surface, but they were all "hiding" in the shadows before, so Guan Dehou didn't even notice.
Now that I see it, I can't help but feel a little numb.
Guan Dehou has seen many bloody scenes, but this is the first time he has seen such a strange scene.
He didn't know where he was or how he got in. In short, he was completely confused and panicked.
'By the way! Communicator!' Guan Dehou immediately took off the communicator on his shoulder and found that it was still on, so he hurriedly asked: "Jing Quan! Lao Peng! Can you hear me?"
There was a rustle in the communicator, but no one responded.
"Jingquan?! Lao Peng?! Can you hear me?!"
"ZZZZZZZZ" The voice of the communicator changed, but there was no human voice.
Guan Dehou understood that the communicator was no longer useful.
So he muttered silently: 'Calm down! Calm down! This should not be a coincidence... If it is... this place must have its meaning... Although I, Guan Dehou, have killed many people in my life, they are all deserving of death.
I haven't done anything shameful, and I believe God won't miss me!'
While comforting himself, Guan Dehou cautiously groped forward.
On the way forward, he heard the crisp laughter again.
It must be a girl, smiling very happily. She really scared Guan Dehou when she ran past him before, but this time she ran past in front of Guan Dehou, and she looked back while laughing, as if someone was there.
It's like chasing her.
Guan Dehou looked behind her alertly, but saw nothing.
Continuing to walk forward, Guan Dehou suddenly heard something vague like someone talking.
Guan Dehou lowered his figure, carefully hiding his body with the help of shadows, and saw two figures at the corner of the street.
Like the little girl, they were all shadows whose faces and figures could not be seen clearly.
However, judging from their general body outlines and their voices, they should be a male and a female.
The man was very silent and the woman was very angry.
…
"Tell me what happened to the money?! What on earth did you do!!" the woman asked.
"I don't want to explain more, Mary. The money is all clean. I earned it from the Internet. Look, didn't the FBI come here to investigate before? No one here has done anything illegal!" the man explained.
road.
"No?! Who do you think those FBIs are? Henry, stop lying to me! You owed so much money when you were working in a bar, but you paid it off overnight, and now you still have so much money
Come and help me! Okay, thank you, Henry! I know you are very kind to me, but please take the money back, I don’t need it! I don’t want to accept help from unknown sources either!” The woman took one in her hand.
She stuffed the bag-like thing back into the man's hand.
But the other party put his hands in his pockets and refused to accept it. The man stepped back a few steps and said, "Mary, listen to me, you have to hold on to the money. Just treat it as if you are doing a good job. Can you help me once? You also
You need money, don’t you?!”
"Okay? Oh my god... do you know what you are talking about? This is the first time I heard of someone giving money to others, and the others did not accept it, but in turn begged others to accept it! What is this money? Is it drugs?
?Henry? Are you doing something illegal? Huh? If you don't tell me clearly, I will take the money and go to the police. I will call them back and investigate all this!" The woman said from her clothes.
I took out something like a mobile phone.
The man panicked when he saw this. He stepped forward to stop the woman from calling the police and said, "Mary, please don't do this. We are lovers. Do you want your boyfriend to be taken away?!"
"Couple? Do you still remember that we are a couple now? When you were drinking and gambling all day long, did you ever think about me as your girlfriend? When you inexplicably took hundreds of thousands of dollars and said you wanted to treat my father's illness, did you
Have you ever thought about my feelings? What you need is a good girl who will let you play with and listen to you in everything, right? Then let me tell you, Henry! I am not, so! Our relationship ends here today! Take it
Your money!" The woman's voice became louder and louder. She threw the money on the ground, then turned around and left.
Upon seeing this, the man immediately picked up the money and chased after it, and said: "Wait! Mary, this is a game! I won the money by betting on you! If you take it and I win, we will get rich!"
But if you don’t hold it, they will kill you! Mary! Just wait!”
The woman did not look back, she sneered: "Yi Yu? Have you drunk too much? You don't have to scare me. I won't believe this kind of ghost story. If they are really capable, then just kill me! You...
…”
"boom!"
There was a gunshot.
The woman's head exploded instantly, and everything seemed to be frozen as she followed her.
Guan Dehou's eyelids twitched. Although he had seen many scenes where people were shot in the head by bullets at close range, those bloody scenes were far worse than what he was seeing now.
‘Hit the head with a sniper rifle in broad daylight?! What kind of lunatic dares to do that?!’
Guan Dehou sighed secretly and then woke up.
A game?…
Sure enough, all of this has something to do with "Player No. 0".
But why didn't he have any impression of this matter?
He had carefully read all the cases around the world that had come into contact with "Player 0" and resulted in casualties, but he did not remember a victim named Mary.
Who is this Henry? Is he a player of the game or a planner of the game?
When Guan Dehou was guessing, a voice came from Guan Dehou
then sounded.
"Excuse me……"
Guan Dehou was shocked when he heard this, and immediately turned around and pointed his gun at the owner of the voice.
The other party was startled and immediately raised his hands.
"Ah! I'm sorry! Did I scare you?"
The voice was soft. Guan Dehou looked up and saw a girl wearing white protective clothing.
She was also wearing woolen gloves on her hands, her cheeks were red, and she looked very cute.
Guan Dehou was stunned: 'This...who is this?'
The two sides were in an awkward stalemate for a while, until...
"Um...Uncle...can you put down the gun first...I don't mean any harm...I'm just curious as to why you are here?" The girl's voice was delicate and weak, and she did not sound threatening.
But Guan Dehou did not relax his vigilance, and his hand never left the trigger for a moment. Only in this way could he feel at ease.
He stood up, still pointing his gun at the girl, and then asked in a cold voice: "Here? Where is this place? Why are you curious that I am here?"
The girl's eyes flashed, she was slightly startled, then smiled and said: "This is node C62111 in the bunker space, and the reason why I am curious is because if you want to enter here, the neuroprimary body must undergo special transformation, otherwise it will be easy
You lost yourself, even fell into the Dead Sea and died, but uncle... your neuroplasm has not been modified in any way, and you are not wearing protective clothing like mine, but you can walk around here consciously... This is really incredible...
…”
Guan Dehou was stunned for a moment after hearing this: "What? What bunker space? What neuroprimary body? What Dead Sea? What are you talking about?"
The girl glanced at the gun in Guan Dehou's hand and said timidly: "Well... this is a bit difficult to handle. It seems that uncle, you broke in here accidentally. You don't know that the current situation is very difficult for you.
It’s dangerous.”
Of course Guan Dehou knew this, so he moved his position slightly so that he would not create a sneak attack from behind.
"It's not difficult. I think my understanding ability is pretty good. You just need to answer my questions, okay?"
The girl was a little embarrassed, her little hand was still raised, and she looked at Guan Dehou and said: "But... according to the regulations, when we encounter a situation like yours, uncle, we must report it as soon as possible and send you back to the time and space where you are.
bit, so...I can't talk too much to you, uncle."
Guan Dehou smiled: "The rules are dead, but people are alive. Besides, you have also seen that I am not so cooperative now. If you feel that there is a violation, you can go back and tell your leader, saying that you were forced by me.
It was forced and said only as a last resort, okay?"
The girl was a little dumbfounded when she heard this. She hesitated and then said: "Let's do this...Uncle, can I make an analogy with you?"
Metaphor? Guan Dehou frowned, then sighed and said: "That's okay, you say it."
The girl thought for a while, organized her words and then said: "Um... Actually, the bunker space is not difficult to understand. You can think of it as the second floor between the first and third floors. But usually we can only go up from the first floor through the stairs.
To the third floor, the second floor is a mysterious place for us, or it does not exist! But in fact, the second floor always exists, and it is precisely because of its existence that the first and third floors can exist stably.
Yes, and this second floor is the bunker space I just mentioned. Can you understand this metaphor, uncle?"
Guan Dehou is still a little confused, but he can probably understand it, but...
"What do the first and third floors refer to?"
"Time and space." The girl said with a smile: "The basic structure on which all our three-dimensional life forms rely is composed of such three elements. One is time, one is space, and the other is the bunker.
Or Malfahn Leap."
"Malfane Leap?"
"Well, he is a great scientist. It was he who discovered this jump in 2490 AD, the most glorious era of the Golden Age, and successfully opened the 'Cloud Atlas' left by the forerunners for mankind. Relying on this
, only then can we embark on the road of transcendence and evolution.”
Guan Dehou: "..."
‘Why do I get more and more confused the more I listen to it…’
Seeing Guan Dehou's confused look, the girl smiled awkwardly and said, "Um...did I make it a bit complicated...uh...my sister reminded me before and told me not to talk too much..."
Guan Dehou came back to his senses after hearing this: "Well, no, no, you go on, don't pay attention to me."
"Oh... then, if you can understand the bunker space, uncle, then it will be much easier to understand later." The girl paused and closed her eyes, then a blue figure emerged from her body and
It rose into the sky.
Guan Dehou was shocked at first, thinking what the girl was going to do.
But then I heard the girl say: "Uncle, you see, in the bunker space, my neuroprimary body and I can exist separately. However, creatures based on the three-dimensional structure can maintain their own existence in the bunker space, but the neural
The Primarch is susceptible to contamination and invasion, so we must modify the Neuroprimary to maintain our sanity and allow us to complete our explorations."
"Neuroprimary..." Guan Dehou looked at the neuroprimary "floating" in the sky and the blue link between the neuroprimary and the little girl. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Why does it look like a human being?"
It’s like three souls and seven souls.”
The girl was startled, then covered her mouth and smiled: "Uncle, you are so interesting. This metaphor is very old, but I did hear people from the Xuan Ao Sect mention the three souls and seven souls of people before. It is said that,
Neuroprimary was originally a metaphysics, a metaphysics about the connection between human beings, the yin and yang of heaven and earth, and all things, but I am stupid and have never been able to understand what this means."
