This Game is Too Real - Chapter 508 return to zero

         "...You have been frozen for too long, and the hematopoietic function has not fully recovered. A blood transfusion may be better for you."

   Outside Vault 0.

   In a tent in the base, the doctor in a white coat looked at Yi Hai lying on the hospital bed and said.

   "No, I feel fine." Rejecting the doctor's kindness, Yi Hai looked tiredly at his younger brother standing beside the hospital bed, and said in a gentle voice, "Can you let me rest for a while?"

   Looking at his brother lying on the hospital bed with concern, Yi Chuan nodded.

   "......you pay attention to rest."

   Although there are many things I want to say to my brother, considering that he has just been rescued from the hibernation chamber, what he needs most at this moment is rest.

   Yi Chuan got up from the seat and walked towards the door.

   However, just when he reached out and opened the curtain, he happened to meet Chu Guang who was walking from outside.

   "Chu Guang?" Yi Chuan looked at him in surprise, thinking he was looking for him, so he asked, "Is there something wrong?"

   Looking at the representative of the Silver Wing Group, Chu Guang said with a friendly smile.

   "I want to talk to your brother about something, can I take up his time a little?".

   Seeing that Chu Guang was not looking for him, Yi Chuan was stunned for a moment. After listening to his request, an embarrassed expression appeared on his face.

   "But he needs to rest now—"

   Yi Chuan's voice had not yet fallen, when a voice from behind him interrupted his words.

   "It's okay, let Mr. Chu Guang come in."

   Yi Chuan immediately turned his head and glanced at his brother who said he was going to rest just now with a strange expression, but in the end he didn't say anything and let the door open.

  Chu Guang gave him a thankful look.

   "Thank you, leave it to me, you can do your work first... Don't worry, I won't disturb your brother for too long."

   Yi Chuan nodded.

   "Okay...then let's talk first."

"Um."

  Chu Guang nodded, borrowed it from Yi Chuan's side, walked straight to the hospital bed, grabbed an iron chair and sat on it.

   Looking at the azure blue armor on his body, Yi Hai, who was lying on the hospital bed, smiled weakly and said.

   "You're still the same, wearing this armor no matter what."

  Chu Guangdan smiled.

   "After all, this is a wasteland, any accident is possible... I'm honored that I left such a deep impression on you."

   "Of course, it's a special place, and it's different from all the places I've been to, not just you, but you... A lot of people have impressed me and my teammates."

   The pale face was full of weakness, but the man on the hospital bed managed to squeeze out a friendly smile.

   "Unfortunately there was a mission at the time, we couldn't stay too long, otherwise I wish I could be there

  Stay a little longer...and see how many delicacies you have stashed in your shelter. "

   Hearing him talking about their shared memories, Chu Guang smiled, suddenly sighed softly, and said with a sense of loss.

   "I said that night...when you recover a bit, we can sit down and have a good chat about what happened to us after you left."…

   "I'm really curious... What happened to you guys, there has been such a big change in just half a year." Yi Hai's voice also had a hint of emotion, his eyes seemed to be caught in memory.

  Chu Guang didn't speak, just stared at him silently for a while.

   Those dark boy holes made it difficult to see what he was thinking. Yi Hai, who looked at Chu Guang, gradually showed a trace of confusion in his eyes.

   "Is there something on my face?"

   "No," Chu Guang shook his head, suddenly withdrew the sharpness in his eyes, and continued in a gentle tone, "Let's talk about what happened before we met you."

   Yi Hai did not speak, waiting quietly for him to continue.

  Chu Guang thought for a moment and continued.

"A long time ago, I had a long, long dream in which I was killed by wastelanders, by mutants, by my most trusted inhabitants. In the most desperate At this juncture, I touched the edge of the dream again and again, but every time I was about to pass through the fog, I would wake up again from the dream. Sometimes I can't help but wonder, will this be the next The beginning of a cycle."

   Yi Hai was stunned, seeing that his expression didn't look like he was joking, and after a while he sighed softly and followed his words.

   "That's a really bad memory."

   "Yes." Chu Guang nodded, "I rarely mention the specific content of my dreams to people, even the people I trust most..."

   After a pause, he continued.

   "As strange as this may sound, it surprises even me...I don't hate the people I've seen in my dreams."

   Yi Hai's face showed a can't help laughing expression, the corner of his mouth twitched twice as if he was smiling.

   "It does sound strange...Dreams and reality are two different things after all, because you have nightmares and hate people in reality, normal people shouldn't do this."

  Chu Guang also smiled and said.

"Really? Don't talk about dreams and reality, even people in reality are different. Some wastelanders are full of bad water, but not all wastelanders are like this. I often warn myself to be cautious. Using the power in my hand, including the authority granted to me by the sanctuary, let go of the arrogance and prejudice of civilized people, treat others as equally as possible, and use rules to restrain others, only in this way can we unite as many people as possible.”

"Whether they are the inhabitants of the refuge or the survivors outside the refuge, they have an equal right to live in this world, not who they should be born to serve, whose aspirations and ambitions should be prioritized, or who become Whose slave... do you think I'm doing the right thing?"

   Yi Hai was silent for a while, and said sincerely.

   "You're a good manager, no wonder you keep your shelter in order."

   This sentence sounds like a heartfelt compliment, and in fact it is, but in Chu Guang's ears, it has a different meaning.

   Especially if he already sensed something.

   This compliment has a hint of irony.

   It happened that Chu Guang didn't intend to continue to accompany him to perform any longer. He looked directly at the pair of Tong Kong who concealed the hypocrisy behind his weakness, and said in a very soft voice. …

"My business is not so skilled at the beginning, but I only learned a little after getting along with the survivors for a while. So I actually don't understand, if it is a slave trader, that's all... They can still use the environment. Justify yourself with ignorance. However, as heirs of civilization, why do you want to join forces with those people? Haven’t people joined you enough?”

   "With those people who are in the same boat?" Yi Hai was stunned for a moment, and his expression gradually became serious, "What do you mean? You mean... There are ghosts and mutants trading in the company?!"

   This guy is still playing stupid to the end.

  Chu Guang admitted.

   His outfit is actually quite similar.

   If this guy had been so attentive from the beginning, or if he didn't reveal his pride so clearly, he might have really gotten over him.

After all, when faced with the wounded, people will instinctively treat them with tolerance, rather than scold them for explaining every detail. Even if they sometimes find inconsistencies in the records, they will tolerantly interpret them as normal after trauma. reaction.

However

  Some things can be explained as memory confusion,

  Some things are impossible.

  People may confuse the sequence of events and confuse the key figures in the events because of memory confusion, but it is impossible to predict things that did not happen for no reason.

  Almost at the same time, Xiao Qi's voice came from his ear, reporting to him what his little players had found in Vault 0.

   Even if the walls of the shelter can block electromagnetic waves, they cannot block the connection established on the "morphogenetic field".

   "Stop pretending... The real Yi Hai has already died in that shelter."

   Seeing that Chu Guang had made it clear, the man lying on the hospital bed finally stopped acting.

   He completely tore off the mask of weakness, his pale face was contorted by emotional fluctuations, and a gurgling laughter came from his dry mouth.

  Like a mad corpse.

  Chu Guang looked at him calmly.

   He knew that this guy should have been holding back for a long time, maybe he has been holding back his laughter since the moment he woke up.

   seems to be laughing enough.

   The distorted face returned to normal, the man let out a long sigh of relief and looked at Chu Guang with a happy expression.

   "Huh... It's not easy to hold back from laughing, you know? It's so funny that you guys are hustle and bustle around me haha!"

   After a pause, he looked curiously at the man in power armor in front of him.

   "Chu Guang, right... I'm still a little curious, how did you find out? Those guys shouldn't have come out of the shelter, right?"

  Chu Guang said in a calm voice.

"Although you acted very similar, even the surprise when you saw me, your feelings for your brother, and the emotion when you saw the rescuer... Everything was performed, but you have too much information. "

   "The Willands, the mutants, the Enlightenment, and the final betrayal of the Enlightenment, all you know." ②

"It's weird isn't it? It's as if you were involved in everything, including the conflict with the Willands and the mutants, including the cooperation with the Enlightenment and eventually being betrayed by the latter... and finally you came back to everything safe and sound. .”…

   "Smart," the man looked at Chu Guang admiringly, "I appreciate you more and more... That's right, I'm a member of the Enlightenment Society."

   "But I still don't understand a bit," Chu Guang stared at him, his voice carrying a hint of curiosity, "How did you disguise as Yi Hai?"

   "Ah... this, is it difficult?" The man had a happy smile on his face, and his reaction was beyond Chu Guang's expectations.

   He didn't hide anything, he simply confessed.

   "Have you heard of mind interference devices?".

  Chu Guang nodded.

"I've heard that some people like you have the same technology, but if I remember correctly... The higher the mind, the more specific information it can receive, but the less affected it is. The lower the mind, the more The less information received, the greater the relative impact."

This technology first originated in the colonies, and was researched and developed inspired by the "unified consciousness" of alien life forms. As a substitute for the "infrasonic fence" technology, it was later used by an unscrupulous enterprise to visit the ecological park. On customers, goods worth less than a bottle of mineral water were sold for sky-high prices, and the result almost turned the advertising industry upside down.

The mind interferometer can control some immature alien species, but for a mature human being, the only effect it can have is to push him when he has the idea of ​​"buying it", let alone the advanced version. Spirit ruled.

"Resonance theory, that's true," the man continued with a smile on his face, "Theoretically, it is impossible to control higher life forms through resonance theory, and the mental complexity of higher life forms is more than tens of thousands of times that of lower life forms, but This is not without exception."

  Chu Guang stared at him for a while, and suddenly there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

   “・・…・・… clones?”

"That's right, especially the ones whose minds are as pure as white paper," the man nodded approvingly, "Thanks to those Willands, I now have at least a thousand instant clones, just pick a height It's almost enough to give him a plastic surgery and a chip implant."

"As for the problem of memory, it's better to solve it. Before this guy is cold enough, just shut his consciousness in the virtual space and slowly interrogate him. Through overhead dreams and subconsciousness, there is always a way to tell what we don't know. The content is squeezed out.”

   When he said this, he deliberately paused and slowed down his speech.

"But at this point, I have to give you a compliment, your sanctuary really made a deep impression on this guy... out of 1700 dreams, at least 320 are about you. Maybe he My last wish before I die is to visit your place again, hehe."

   Not provoked by his provocation, Chu Guang took a deep breath and continued to ask.

   "So the crew of the Trailblazer are all dead?"

   The man smiled and said, "How come? If I didn't let one go on purpose, would you guys come all the way here?"

   "From the time the Trailblazer stepped into this field, all of you...whether you are in it or outside it, are under my calculations."…

   "It seems that you are satisfied with your plan." Chu Guang raised his chin slightly, looking down at the ugly and twisted personality.

   is like looking down at a maggot.

   However, the man didn't care about it, instead he nodded happily and admitted it, as if he was delighted by the look in his eyes.

   "Of course. Originally, in my expectation, only corporations and legions would come here, but now there is an unexpected academy...it's perfect!"

   Suddenly thought of something, he stopped again.

   "Ah, maybe four, but unfortunately, I have no interest in you. A three-digit shelter, we have managers of two-digit shelters everywhere."

  Chu Guang stared at him.

   "The Enlightenment?"

"That's right," the man said simply, "the residents who can be selected to be the sanctuary are, without exception, the elites of the People's Union society, or at least the descendants of the elites. This world should be dominated by us... But it's a pity, Now this cake is covered with zhang beetles, so before cutting this cake, we intend to clean up those zhang beetles."

   When he said this, his words suddenly changed, and his eyes rolled, staring at Chu Guang.

"But then again, although I'm not interested in your sanctuary, I am quite interested in you personally. Originally, according to the rules, you manage a three-digit sanctuary. Even if you join us, you have to start with a disciple, but I An exception can be made to make you an elder."

  Chu Guang laughed.

   "It's interesting that you are divided into ranks. You actually use the shelter number to arrange the seats."

   The man said naturally.

   "That's for sure. The ranking of the shelter represents the priority of the budget. The higher the ranking, the higher the social status before the war."

   The first half of his sentence is indeed the truth, but the second half of the sentence is obviously just his own understanding, at least it is different from the information that Chu Guang has learned.

   "Then what number are you?"

   "Me?" The man was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "I am naturally 0."

   "By the way, I haven't told you my name yet... But forget it, the name is just a code, and that kind of thing is not important."

   After a pause, he looked at Chu Guang happily.

   "You can be like my disciples."

   "Call me Guixu!"

   The smile on that face was like a demon.

  He is lying here, watching the people from the enterprise, legion, and academy, in the labyrinth he set up by himself.

   In the middle of the busy, he went around. And his real body should be somewhere not too far from here.

  The only thing that Chu Guang can be sure of now is that the technology he used is not the same morphogenetic field as Vault 404, but based on the resonance theory originated in 2111, so the transmission of information will be affected by interference factors.

   Otherwise he should know all about what's going on underground.

   "But I heard that Vault 0 wasn't finished."

   "It means that you, like the little cuties on the Trailblazer, know nothing about the Torch Project."

   Guixu continued casually.

"But this is also normal. Vault 0 is originally an existence outside the sequence... It is not a sanctuary that exists in reality, but a building composed of multiple components, each of which is carefully crafted. Designed to accomplish the ultimate plan - to purge the planet of all organisms outside of Sanctuary and to complete the restart of civilization before its legacy is exhausted."…

When    said this, Gui Xu smiled.

   "The underground shelter is just one of many facilities. We originally came here to pick up one thing, but unfortunately we couldn't find the key to get in. Thanks to the little cuties on the Pioneer who helped us."

"Do you know? Seeing how well they understand, I thought they knew what they were looking for, but I didn't expect that they had never even heard of the Torch Project, just because of a legend that could end the wasteland, it's really hard for them to rely on it. I found it here with a lot of information... Hahaha, it's a pity." Shaking his head with a smile, he continued.

   "I originally wanted to bring them in, and it's not impossible for the descendants of Vault 6. For this reason, I bitterly told them a lot of nonsense, just like now."

"However, after listening to my explanation, the guy named Lu Yang not only foolishly rejected me, but also betrayed me in his own way and threw in the parent specimen hidden on the Pioneer, causing many of my subordinates. locked inside."

   When he said this, he looked up at the clock on the wall, and the smile on his face became more pleasant.

"Thank you for chatting with me for so long, the thundercloud storm should have arrived in this area, and the thunder should have started outside... From now on, no news can get out from here. But don't worry, whether it's the pioneer ship The crew, or those from the Wieland or the Academy, they'll all go home safe and sound...and we'll say hello to your family.

   At this moment, the guy who claimed to be returning to the market finally confessed all his plans.

   He didn't just want something hidden in the underground shelter, he also planned to take this opportunity to replace everyone here!

   Like he usurped Yi Hai's identity.

As long as everyone here is controlled and their memories are extracted through virtual reality equipment, they can use the Legion's cloning, plastic surgery and mind interference technology to disguise as those who are dead, while arranging disciples as servants or other identities Live next to the puppets and infiltrate the legion, enterprise, and academy.

  Chu Guang had to admit that this guy and his enlightenment meeting were really not ordinary brave.

   Declare war on three fallen empires at once, plus a nascent alliance.

   This kind of behavior is usually called boredom.

   "No wonder you told me everything without worrying at all." Looking at the guy lying on the bed, Chu Guang said with emotion.

   Guixu Tantan smiled.

"Yes, your only chance to survive is to join us. To be honest, if you don't have the cooperation of yourself, it is a thankless thing to seize the authority of the administrator, and we have no interest in taking them from the disciples. power. As long as you cooperate with our work, you and your inhabitants will have the power to survive in the new world."

   "Has my status been downgraded from elder to disciple? But unfortunately, I have no interest in the new world you speak of."

  Chu Guang laughed.

While    was talking, he had already closed the visor of his helmet.

   "If you want my life, then try it."…

   seemed to have expected his answer, and the man lying on the bed just yawned indifferently.

   "Then try it."

  Thundercloud storm has formed.

  In this special climatic environment, the aircraft could not take off at all, and the transmission distance of the signal was weakened to the extreme.

   In order to avoid the shield energy being consumed for no reason, the two airships hovering above began to descend.

   However, at this moment, a piercing alarm bell suddenly sounded in the sky.

   Chu Guang frowned slightly, and immediately pulled out the nitrogen power hammer behind him, the violent airflow spread in an instant, and the entire ceiling of the barracks flew out, and the sundries in the barracks were also blown up and down.

  ‘Are you going to kill me? It doesn't matter, although it's a pity to be invited out of the special seat, but I will keep an eye on you from other places. Gui Xu laughed, looking at the murderous Chu Guang, and continued, "But before that, I suggest you pay attention to the top of your head. "

   No need for him to remind him at all.

  Chu Guang was looking up at the sky.

  I saw that the two airships floating directly above the camp were sinking at an uncontrollable speed, and the propellers on both sides were spinning rapidly, but the limited thrust obviously could not support the heavy body.

   It wasn't just the Heart of Steel that fell.

   There is a judge not far away!

  Chu Guang narrowed his eyes slightly.

   Phase Energy Rectifier!

   The deflector shield and the anti-gravity system of the airship can be disabled at the same time, and this is the only possibility.

   At this time, Yi Chuan, who had left the camp earlier, rushed in from the outside in a hurry.

   "The airship is falling?! What the **** happened—"

   His words suddenly stopped.

   Looking at Chu Guang who was holding the warhammer, at the ceiling that was blown away, and at the elder brother lying on the hospital bed, Yi Chuan's face was full of surprise and bewilderment.

   The smile on the man's face on the hospital bed suddenly gave him a strange feeling, as if something had got under his brother's skin.

not only that.

   That smile that had nothing to do with him made him feel the cold that went deep into his bones.

   He didn't even look at Yi Chuan standing at the door of the barracks, Gui Xu looked at Chu Guang with a smile, and said in a casual tone.

   "Under the instruction of the enterprise, the alliance suddenly opened fire on the adjudicator, and Captain Adria asked for reinforcements from Triumph City... What do you think of this script?"

  Chu Guang replied expressionlessly.

"not so good."

   "Indeed, I forgot about the Academy," the man nodded thoughtfully, "Let me think about it again."

   "Brother..." Yi Chuan stared at him blankly and wanted to take a step forward, but a big hand covered with steel fell on his shoulder.

   "It's not your brother lying there."

   grabbed Yi Chuan who wanted to move forward, Chu Guang did not look at the falling airship, but looked outside the camp with sharp eyes.

   There are at least 1,000 clones that this guy got his hands on…

   Maybe even more.

   Remotely operated by the disciples of the Enlightenment through spiritual connection... This sounds like a very strong sense of sight.

   "Aren't you running yet?" The man looked curiously at Chu Guang, who was standing there motionless, and reminded kindly, "If you don't run, it will be too late."

"run?"

  Chu Guang raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled.

   "Why should I run?"

   One shot of the phaser cannon to get him.

   That would be too underestimated...
