The ruins of Z city. Li Xinyan is still in a coma.
But his consciousness was awake.
In front of us is a world of points and lines. The light is of various colors, just like the decomposed sunlight, scattered in every corner of the world. Whether it is birds or clouds in the air, or warship wrecks inserted into the sea in front of us, they are all composed of various line segments, like a two-dimensional plane design. The world composed of line segments is not at rest all the time. It is moving just like the real world and running according to its own rules.
But if you look at it carefully, you can see that it's not a plane world. It's also three-dimensional. It's just that some of them are made up of lines and look like plane scenery. The space of this world is huge, and I don't know where the end is. But Li Xinyan can feel that countless line segments are disintegrating and generating at the same time, Everything circulates in the process of destruction and rebirth. From the grass at the foot to the stars in the sky, it really exists in the birth and death of line segments.
Li Xinyan looked down at his body and raised his arm. Without exception, he was a figure drawn by lines. Putting down his arm, Li Xinyan found a man standing in front of him, who was also composed of line segments.
"Well, here you are?" The man turned his back to Li Xinyan and looked at the sea of stars composed of distant lines.
Before Li Xinyan spoke, he said to himself, "well, it looks pretty good. According to human's words, it should be called blind cat meets dead mouse. I thought the first thing to be collected would be a small robot or something. The structure you just captured is a part of the engine structure of the X8 warship. Although it is not the most important part, it has the best expansibility. You see, those wrecks on the sea, due to the inference of the expansion part, have produced a lot of auxiliary structures, which are quite complete... "
"You are..." hesitated for a moment, Li Xinyan heart light flash, said: "you are... Tiratimus?"
"So you know who I am?" Li Xinyan's rhetorical question surprised the man. He turned around and asked with a smile. The tiratimus in front of Li Xinyan is still the image of the middle-aged man that Li Xinyan saw before. It's just that after pulling out the entity and turning it into a wireframe, tiratimus has many less features that can be seen at a glance. At this time, tiratimus has less sense of stability and more sense of competence.
"Yes. Your voice and way of speaking are very similar to the person in the "past" world Li Xinyan replied.
Tirathamis's original smile slowly disappeared and said, "it seems that you already know the past."
"Yes."
Tiratimus sighed a little and said, "good."
Okay? Li Xinyan frowned. What's the answer? The answer seems to be that he has been arranged in a larger plan. Yes, the tiratimus in the "past" has said that the body of tiratimus has installed a handle in Li Xinyan's body. If you guess correctly, these things should be the entrance to the world like the "past", and this tiratimus seems to know this thing very well, So, what is he going to do with tiratimus? What is he going to do with me, Li Xinyan?
Without waiting for Li Xinyan to speak, tiratimus continued: "the past decides the future. Even if you don't want to do something, it's not up to you to decide whether to do something in the future. It's up to you in the past. So it's not what I want to do, it's what you want to do in the future. "
This is a bit around, Li Xinyan has not tasted the taste of this sentence, but tiratimus suddenly stretched out, pointed to the sky and the sea, changed the topic: "ah ~ ~! I've been trapped here for decades, and finally someone can talk to people who are not conscious of themselves. It's such a happy thing! Ha ha ha ha
It turns out this guy has been depressed for a long time.
Li Xinyan didn't know what to say.
"Ah, I don't know what to say. Let's talk about the world first. At that time, I buried 24 handles in your mind. In fact, I didn't expect all handles to be valid forever. In fact, I hope none of them will be triggered. No trigger means there are only two outcomes - either you are free, or you are dead, or you have nothing to do with the past, or you end the war on your own without my help. Of course, there is also a result that someone else has terminated the war, and you are completely free because of the termination of the war... "
Li Xinyan looked at tiratimus speechless and thought, "I hope this war has nothing to do with me."
"But Titus raised his voice. He seemed to be able to hear the words in Li Xinyan's consciousness directly, "but the probability that you will end this war is very high, because the important participant in this war is you in the past! The war you started can only be ended by you, otherwise, either human beings or the mechanical city will perish! And neither of those two results is what you want
Li Xinyan's heart is a little heavy, but when you think about it, what tiratimus said seems to be right.
Thinking of this, Li Xinyan suddenly sees a problem. It seems that Li Xinyan, who exists in human body, is not accepted by human beings. After being killed by human beings, Li Xinyan in "the past" has been transformed into a mechanical life body. When he had human body before, Li Xinyan's life has been changed into a mechanical life body, He was killed by a mechanical animal and transformed into a mechanical life body by human beings again... What do human beings want from his body!?
wait! If the first time he was deliberately killed by human beings and transformed into a mechanical life, how could he be so clever the second time? Just after being killed by the mechanical beast, someone arrived at the scene immediately, and completed the extraction of his consciousness in such a short time? If there is no preparation in advance, how can there be such a coincidence? How accurate is the timing?
There was a faint thunder in the world of wireframe.
It turns out that human beings have been plotting against him!
"Alas..." tirathamis sighed. He came slowly and put his hand on Li Xinyan's shoulder“ Don't make a decision yet! Do you think the mechanical city has always been kind to you? If it is kind, how can my projection appear in your consciousness? How could that place you in the human world from the mechanical city? What you see is not necessarily the whole story. What you feel is that human beings are hostile to you. It's just that so far the mechanical city has not directly started. "
"Are... They going to do the same to me?" Li Xinyan raised his head and asked. Unconsciously, he clenched his fist.
"Is it a fake that you see the mechanical beasts on the battlefield trying to kill you?" Tiratimus asked.
Once again, Li Xinyan was speechless, and tirartemis was right.
Tiratimus pinched his shoulder again and said, "don't rush to make a conclusion, especially when you can't see the whole thing clearly."
"Then, should I be so submissive that I am treated as a monkey by the two hostile forces of human and mechatrocity? Let them treat me as a fish on the chopping board and chop me as they like? " Li Xinyan drinks too much.
Tiratimus spread his hands: "so what? They didn't kill you
"You Li Xinyan choked and couldn't say a word for a while. This guy, what do you mean? What kind of son of a bitch is that!?
Tirathamis smiles and shakes his head: "God is always fair. If you want to get it, you must take it first. When you can control the world, you will find that you are only paying a little tuition now."
