Chapter 208

"Hum... Hum, hum..."

The gate of highway town.

Holding the tail of his rifle, he leaned against the rusty road sign and hummed a tune that Sisi had never heard before.

It sounds good.

"Ah Wei is humming about something."

See Si Si looked over, the mouth corner of the tail tilted upward and said proudly.

"The song heard on the radio!"

"Radio?" Si Si was stunned.

This is an ancient setting.

Tail's eyes were bright and said, "there is a radio in the reception room on the first floor of the sanatorium. It will play something you don't understand in the evening. In the afternoon, it will play several repeated singles. It seems that the soundtrack built in the game! I observed it all day before! Gee, Si didn't find this colored egg!"

Why should I pay attention to that boring thing?

Si Si helplessly looked at the slowly moving clouds in the sky, sighed and said.

"Is it really good that we fish like this every time?"

The tail glanced at Si discontentedly.

"What is fishing? Doesn't the tail work hard?"

Si Si reminds a way.

"It's said that it's a death flag to leave when standing guard."

The tail said indifferently.

"Not afraid, the tail is agile. As long as the tail is fast enough, death will always slow the tail one step!"

Si: "

The team they are now in is located on an inter provincial highway leading to the East.

The terrain of the highway is high, with gentle downward slopes on both sides. As it is an inter provincial highway, few buildings are seen nearby. Outside the guardrail are pine and cypress trees, as well as dead leaves and shrubs dotted in the forest.

The name of the survivor's stronghold is highway town. As the name suggests, it is a small town built on a highway. The only landmark here is probably the road sign with a height of about three stories behind the tail. I think this survivor settlement is also named after it.

The survivors here built a long and narrow settlement along the road with materials removed from waste cars and wood obtained from cutting trees.

One advantage of this is that you don't have to worry about the house soaking in the water in rainy weather. When wolves and hyenas wander over, you don't dare to attack people living on the slope from both sides.

The architectural style here is quite wild, just like the temper of the local residents.

They don't grow crops at ordinary times. They mainly raise goats as tall as horses. If we have to find out the only difference between them and nomads, it is probably that they will not move their nest easily. Occasionally, they will plant cash crops such as Kam trees and sell the produced rubber and oil pressing Kam fruit to past traders.

To be honest, Si admires the operators of waste land ol, who can make every survivor's settlement in a different style. And this style is very different, which is not only reflected in the modeling and mapping of the game, but also goes deep into the deeper core.

These survivors have their own unique culture and customs, and have different moral norms, world outlook and beliefs from others.

This kind of detail is not only reflected in the collective level, but also accurate to everyone in the collective.

Just as they stood guard, a child in fur was standing under a small tree, as if saying goodbye to something. The man and woman with their bags on their back stood at the door of their home, looking sad at the newly repaired new home.

Not far away, because he wanted to take away the Kam trees wrapped with hemp rope and plastic in the field, the old man in his fifties was arguing fiercely with the Scarface man.

They are like living people.

Not only have their own life, the trajectory of life is affected by countless variables, and thus evolved into a tree chart pregnant with countless possibilities, rather than a one-way line that can be seen to the end at a glance.

It's much better than the sandbox games she's played.

Even more "powerful" than reality!

She even wanted to start at once, pack up and travel.

But then again

Is this a desertion?

Si Si unconsciously glanced aside and found that no one paid attention to them at all.

Maybe the other team members didn't have much hope for them from the beginning. My darkest and another little partner of the perception Department consciously went out for meat detection.

The field man carrying a rifle wandered around in the distance, looking for someone to fight, but it was too cold to find a mutant hyena.

Captain Quanshui, the only "orange" exoskeleton in full clothes, always stands in the most stable place and takes command, and carefully arranges specific tasks for each team member, including the battlefield man who is acting as bait outside and my darkest.

On the whole, this team is more reliable, at least more reliable than the edge man, the death team of killing chickens at midnight and the magic man team.

So that Si often thinks about the meaning of staying here with his tail.

Glancing at the time on the VM screen, his tail stretched and yawned.

"Si, it seems that there is no fight today. We can only wait for tomorrow."

"Ah Wei, please remember that you are actually a girl -"

There was a sudden explosion in the distance, make complaints about Si's Tucao.

The two men looked in the direction of the explosion and grabbed the weapons in their hands.

"The enemy is coming?!" his tail is full of energy and his eyes are shining.

Si Si glanced at the map and pondered for a moment.

"No... I think the sound is far away. It's probably other teams."

At this time, the scolding of the field man came from a distance, which corroborated her conjecture.

"Gan! Why didn't we trigger the plot! Bad comments!"

Different from the players' regret, the survivors of highway town were obviously frightened by the explosion. They stopped their hands and looked at the northeast with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

"What happened?"

"That voice..."

"Did something blow up?"

"It shouldn't be a bone chewing man!"

"Those damn marauders! Let me catch them, I must screw their heads off!"

The crowd talked.

The owl standing in Kam tree garden frowned, and the scalded scars on his face crowded together. His hand was unconsciously placed on his waist, but it was soon taken back.

The sound is at least 4 kilometers away from here, separated by a large area of ruins and wasteland. It will take some time to come over.

The old man, who was still arguing with him a second ago, looked sharply at the northeast and muttered to himself.

"This is the direction of the battery factory."

His name is hook. He is 56 years old. When he was young, he was a vigorous Hunter until he was shot in the knee and became an old hook planting Kam tree.

Although he is not an awakened person, he can live to his age with rich experience no less powerful than that at the genetic level.

The owl looked at him and asked.

"The blacksmiths?"

Hook closed his eyes and nodded gently.

"It should be... Listen carefully, there are gunshots, and there are a lot of them."

The owl held his breath and listened carefully for a while, his eyebrows wrinkled.

"There are at least 40 people."

"At least double."

After taking a look at the trees covering two acres of land, the old man finally gave up, sighed and shook his head sadly.

"Go find your father."

"We have to move faster!"

……

Outside the west gate of the outpost, not far from the shooting range of the guard, there is a red brick house with only an iron window facing the outpost.

This is the prison of the outpost. At the moment, there are several prisoners who have just been sent from the long farm.

In addition, a special "prisoner" was held there.

In the wooden shed, the four meter long claw of death curled up in the corner.

It was wrapped with a rope made of iron chain and devil's silk. Its amber pupils reflected dangerous light and scanned several people at the door.

The beast glanced at Xia Yan, who unconsciously took a step backward and nervously held the scythe assault rifle in his hand.

This thing.

It's much more dangerous than a climber!

"You, what are you doing with this near the door?"

Chu Guang, standing next to her, said without thinking.

"For research, of course."

He was wearing power armor, a carbon nano bulletproof vest he got at the beginning, and a nitrogen power hammer on his back. It can be said that he was armed to his teeth.

Let alone a dead claw, even if the queen of cleft clawed crab stood in front of him, he was confident that he could retreat.

"By the way, you don't have to follow."

"What are you talking about? How can I let you come alone with such a dangerous thing."

Chu Guang looked at boss Xia with great interest. He couldn't help thinking about when the guy became so brave.

Is that the reason for that leg?

It seems that the money is worth it.

"Unbelievable... It's incredible!"

Muttering to herself, Heya walked forward feverishly, and Chu Guang hurriedly pulled her back.

"Are you crazy?"

My SSSR card!

No, it should be said that it is the players' SSSR card!

"Crazy? No, the world is crazy. I've never seen such an amazing creature!"

Heya continued, looking at the lizard intoxicated.

"I've checked this guy's DNA. It undoubtedly belongs to the reptilidae lizard order of chordate! But its body has evolved its own mechanism to regulate body temperature. It can maintain a high metabolism in winter like mammals. As long as it wants, it doesn't sleep even in winter!"

"Even taiga lizards can keep their body temperature constant for a period of time during breeding... Is this really radiation variation?"

Chu Guang doesn't know how to answer this question. After all, he hasn't been in the world for less than a year. He's also the first time to see this terrible monster.

Yan Fang, standing aside, also had an incredible look in his eyes.

But his attention was different from Heya's, staring straight at the painted black device on the neck of the dead claw.

It looks like a large ring!

"There is really something outrageous... The device installed on the back of its head can really connect it with people's thinking?"

"The result of the trial is indeed so. Do you want to try?"

With that, Chu Guang took out a prop with the same shape as "earphone with microphone" and threw it into Yan Fang's hand.

After taking it, Yan Fang thought about it in his hand for a while, and soon put it on his head without a teacher.

Power on.

Turn the knob to the maximum!

The sound of a slight current is like the brain is electrified.

But beyond that, there seems to be no other feeling.

"What should I do with this thing - hiss!"

The tingling pain in his mind made Yan Fang cry out, and subconsciously stretched out his hand and pressed it on his temple.

But the pain came and went quickly. Soon he adapted to the tingling feeling and put his hand down.

Watching Yan Fang slow down, Chu Guang, who had tried once, continued.

"You can try to order the monster... For example, to stand up."

Holding the wheat at the corner of his mouth, Yan Fang took a deep breath, stared at the dead claw and said.

"Stand up!"

The body trembled. Although the claw of death lying on the ground resisted the command, it still dragged its scarred body and slowly stood up from the ground.

what the fuck?

Really?!

Yan Fang was shocked and forgot his headache. He continued to order wheat at the corner of his mouth.

"Get down!"

The claws of death lay on the ground.

The expression on his face was more and more shocked, and Yan Fang continued to order towards it with an excited face like he had found the new world.

"Stand up!"

"Hop!"

"Draw a circle on the ground with your tail! Gee, can't you do this? Learn to bark!"

“……”

The repeatedly tossed dead claw gradually showed a painful expression on his face, the neurons in his body were highly active, and the brain waves began to be disordered.

Chu Guang could obviously feel that if it weren't for the iron chain, the beast would have torn the guy in front of him with one claw!

But Yan Fang didn't care.

He just wanted to find out the limits of the device.

Almost all the commands that could be tried were tried again. When Yan Fang was thinking about what other commands could be tried, he suddenly felt his brain dizzy, his shoulder shook and fell back.

Chu Guang gently pushed forward with his left hand, dragged Dr. Yin who fell back, and took off the headset on his head with his other hand.

"It's best not to use this device continuously... It will not only cause a spiritual load on the controlled object, but also on the people who use this device."

Chu Guang tried this thing once before.

Rather than mind control, the function of this device is more similar to a kind of "hypnosis".

It does not allow the user to directly manipulate the actions of the controlled person, but through spiritual pressure and in a way of spiritual hint, let the looped alien execute several simple commands.

Like predation.

Another example is to move forward, backward or run in a certain direction.

Jumping on one foot is barely possible, but there is no way to draw a circle on the ground with your tail or bark like a dog.

This device does not allow the controlled person to complete commands beyond his cognition, unless it has actively done similar things at a certain moment in his life.

Even so, this device is great, but it is far from the "morphogenetic field" in his sanctuary.

Players from the "different world" can directly "soul wear" clones, which is not much more powerful than what indirect PUA and the master's orders?

If the clone doesn't die, the player can fight all the time.

It's not like this guy.

He broke the ring around his neck and got out of control.

"Sorry, I'm playing a little Hi, I've never seen this technology..." Yan Fang shook his head and stood firm again.

Chu Guang said thoughtfully.

"Technology that even the college doesn't know?"

Yin Fang was helpless.

"The college is not omniscient. We also have things we don't know much or don't understand at all."

After a pause, he continued.

"As I should have told you before, in order to facilitate the reconstruction work, we divide the technology into seven levels of fedcbas for management according to the reconstruction difficulty, and reasonably allocate personnel and budget."

Chu Guang nodded.

"You did say it once."

Yin Fang continued.

"In fact, in addition to the well-known seven levels, there is an eighth level outside the system - what we call the singularity."

"Singularity?" Chu Guang frowned and asked, "what do you mean."

Yin Fang: "it represents the cutting edge and is a blank about the future. These technologies are like singular points in calculus, non analytic points in complex function, an island independent of the set... They are like the bottleneck between us and the future."

"For example, you may not have heard of neutrino channels, and then there are a lot of mutants on the waste soil... They are singularities. Although they are immature, they usually have extremely attractive prospects behind them. Once completed, it will predictably set off a round of technological revolution. For example, the former corresponds to the speed of light, and we will be able to travel to distant galaxies faster and cheaper, and then They correspond to super life with the ability to adapt to the whole environment. "

Yan Fang shrugged his shoulders.

"Of course, the technological revolution here is on the premise of social integrity. What we need now is obviously not innovation, but revival. Therefore... The college does not know much about singularity, and only selectively retains some topics worthy of continuation. The focus of recycling work is mainly on the mature technology in the system."

Isolated individuals outside the system did not complete the "future technology" of research even before the war.

An inappropriate metaphor, probably similar to the forbidden magic in fantasy settings?

Chu Guang can only understand that.

"I suddenly wondered, is the clone of the Legion a singularity?"

To Chu Guang's surprise, Yan Fang nodded decisively.

"Yes, but only half. The full name of the whole project should be 'full life cycle adjustable technology'. If it can be completed, in theory, we can shorten or extend the time of any life cycle, and really control evolution."

"As long as you want, you can be a child or an adult all your life, and you will never die at the genetic level. Our race will completely get rid of the backward r strategy and K strategy, no longer accept natural selection, but define itself by itself."

Heya, standing nearby, was stunned on the spot.

"Can such a thing be done?"

"Who knows?" Yan Fang shrugged, "maybe, maybe not. Only the future knows everything about the future."

Yin Fang and Heya began to discuss whether this kind of thing could be realized. It was obvious that Heya didn't believe it, indicating that such a thing had never been heard of.

Yan Fang said to her firmly that she glanced at her mouth.

"How young... Didn't your mentor teach you not to jump to conclusions about unknown things?"

Hearing that Yan Fang actually pointed the topic to his mentor, Heya suddenly blew her hair.

Xia Yan was confused all the way. She couldn't remember when she couldn't understand.

Chu Guang was lost in thought.

He suddenly thought of the recording, the expression of "form formation field".

After organizing language for a moment, Chu Guang interrupted their argument and said.

"If there is a technology, it can establish a strong relationship between consciousness bodies in two different dimensions and transmit information across the boundaries of space and time."

"What the hell is that? Magic?" Yan Fang, who was quarreling, replied without thinking, and his tone sounded like ridicule.

But perhaps it was thought that this was not easy to bully. He immediately shut his mouth when he just opened his mouth.

But Chu Guang didn't take what he said to heart.

Because he thinks so.

Something unheard of sounds like a miracle.

However, seeing Yan Fang's reaction, Chu Guang probably understood.

Some technology hidden in shelter 404 has obviously exceeded the cognition of the college, and it is naturally impossible to be within the fedcbas classification system.

There is no doubt that it has reached the state of "singularity"!

And suspected to be mature

Just as Chu Guang was about to talk to Heya about the torch church, Xiao Qi's voice suddenly came from the communication channel.

"Master, something happened to your player!"

Hearing this sentence, Chu Guang was slightly stunned. He didn't have time to ask carefully. He immediately closed the helmet mask. His index finger made a few false points in front of the tactical eyepiece and cut to the map interface.

Xia Yan, standing next to him, saw Chu Guang's sudden action and realized something. He asked in a low voice.

"What happened?"

Chu Guang, staring at the map, frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Something's going on."

Almost as soon as the voice fell, a guard trotted over from a distance.

Standing still in front of Chu Guang, he made a military salute and said solemnly.

"Your Excellency, the team you sent to the battery factory to cover the evacuation of local survivors was attacked by predators!"

"I see. I've arranged for someone to go."

Chu Guang looked up at the sanatorium and saw a spare hummingbird UAV running into the air and soon disappeared in the northeast.

Just now, he has mobilized the team performing the task nearby to support, and issued the defense task to the players on the front line.

Be sure to guard until reinforcements arrive!

"Hold on!"
