Chapter 316 A Dream in the Darkness

People are bound to be afraid of the dark.

Human beings are diurnal animals, and their senses are specialized for the day.At night, there are too many hunters [such as many nocturnal feline killers] who can kill them in an instant.The ancient ancestors had to protect themselves with fire and crowds.

People who are afraid of the dark will instinctively lean near the fire in the middle of the night.

People who are not afraid of the dark are much less likely to inherit their "not afraid of the dark" related genes.

What humans are afraid of is not darkness, but "losing awareness of their surroundings".

When humans lack information about their surroundings, they perceive themselves as facing something or a situation they cannot overcome, control, or know.At this time, he will instinctively associate with death, life-threatening things or circumstances.

For the ancient man, he had to learn to associate from "a swaying clump of grass" to "a tiger lying in ambush in the grass".This kind of association may be scaring myself nine times out of ten.But as long as that hominid escaped predators once, then he is more likely to become the ancestor of modern humans.

This is a set of mechanisms that have been built into the amygdala.

After being trapped in the dark, humans will feel fear, and then their heartbeat will increase, body temperature will rise, and adrenaline will be secreted-this is the body preparing for "escape".Although sometimes, this will speed up the loss of physical strength and reduce the probability of rescue of the trapped person.But the human body, after all, is designed for gathering and hunting on the prairie. Natural selection will not consider that modern humans will need to go down the mine or be trapped in the elevator tens of thousands of years later.

Of course, this was the age of the natural man.

But even if the transformation rate is maximized, human beings still cannot escape this curse.

As long as a person's prosthetic eyes, prosthetic ears, and network cards are all forcibly offline, then the reformed person will also fall into great fear and even go crazy.

But after all, human beings have the ability to overcome instinct.

Zheng Lunnaio's consciousness was wandering in the darkness.

The first time he was treated like this decades ago, he nearly broke down.

After that, Dr. Hu told him that if he still wanted to live here, he would endure this kind of thing continuously.All of them bear the stigma of sin.If you dare to escape, you will be hunted down by rangers like a net.Even if you search for relevant information on the Internet, you may be knocked down by asylum seekers rushing into your house... No, maybe what you learn on the Internet later is a "customized version" of wrong knowledge aimed at you, which can kill you at a critical moment. The kind of life.

King Agni had this ability.

Suicide, risking his life to escape into the rivers and lakes, or...continue to live, and endure such things again and again.

From that day on, Zheng Lunnaio made a choice.

He often used the excuse of "meditation" to ask his disciples to help him unplug the chip.He often thinks in this state.

Gradually, he even realized the difference in "tactility" between "thinking with a hard disk" and "thinking without a hard disk", and gradually learned how to avoid the brain area directly connected to the output device and how to prevent his thinking from being captured.

Zheng Lunnaio didn't know it, but he inadvertently rediscovered one of the "origins of internal strength".

Internal energy was not invented suddenly by the ancestor of internal energy.Before the birth of inner strength, there were many geeks consciously using implanted devices to exercise their programming ability.It is as if countless tributaries converged into a great river, and in the end these results became technologies that shook the world.

And people without foundation also have a certain probability of rediscovering these early techniques in the brutal meditation training.In a sense, this can be regarded as a "God-sent Kung Fu".

But this kind of "reinventing the wheel" is of little significance to masters of internal skills.The crude internal force born in the early meditation method is far inferior to the training method improved by scientific thinking.

For Zheng Lunnaio, this is just right.

After the real internal strength is hacked, there will be an instinctive counterattack.This is easy to detect.

However, hacking technology itself is difficult to apply in general life and production scenarios.Those who master this technology will be regarded as potential rebels by default.

Zheng Lunnaio's body does not have the neural activity of a conventional internal strength practitioner.Even King Agni's students didn't realize that this guy could evade his own control to a certain extent.

But Zheng Lunnaio is not completely immune to the harm of darkness.

He just used memories to evoke the past.

From the perspective of the instrument, this is a nerve impulse similar to dreaming.Maybe this guy has been scared to collapse.

Zheng Lunnaio could only consolidate his mind over and over again in his memories.

——I must be more...

The story begins with several huge fireballs falling from the sky.The [-]-meter-high steel object was actually a landing module, and the huge shock-absorbing structure only protected the army of drones inside.Tens of thousands of drones... drones that may have nuclear batteries inside, fell out of those landing pods like floating dust, and began to surround the city.

The landing module also emits a silvery mist.It was an aerosol called "Tiehua".The drone bursts out a strong magnetic field, pulling the spread of these aerosols.

Panic began to spread.There are many people trying to escape the city.But they were quickly shot and killed by weapons carried by the drone swarm.

This massacre is indiscriminate.

There are some master patrons and scientific research knights who want to leave the city with their own aircraft.

But their aircraft either fell inexplicably in mid-air, or were killed by the "wire of fire" falling from the sky.

According to King Agni, the "suspected mountain seeker" could be anywhere, and could be any individual.He might even be a master at manipulating battleships for the lord, the brain attached to the aircraft.

He will not let any individual go.

--I need courage……

That was a story decades ago.

In the panic, the lord conveyed King Agni's will.

No, not at all.For the residents of the city, this information is publicly available online.

"The guy suspected of Xiangshan" please leave the city and go to the designated place in the wilderness to die.

Otherwise King Agni would blow up the city.

The aloof patrons began to demand that the untouchables wail.They led the people to cry, begging a knight for help.

"If any of you know the fellow..." the lord pleaded, "if you have any leads... find him and beg him! Save the city!"

time is limited.Only a few hours from the start of the countdown

Some people started running around the streets like crazy.Fear breeds violence, and violence breeds destruction.

Some local knights and warriors also started to act.They tried to impersonate "Xiang Shan".

After all, for cybermen, replacing prosthetic bodies is too common.King Agni was not sure what the other party looked like.

But King Agni seems to have the certainty of distinguishing individuals.Many warriors entered the area covered by that iron flower, trying to reach the designated location.However, the countdown never ends.

In the midst of this chaos, Zheng Lunnaio also took action.

Although only a few years of conversation.Although the "she" at that time may not be the "he" now.

but……

Soon, Zheng Lunnaio noticed the difference on the chaotic street.Some martial artists suspected of being gang members were killed by professional methods.Judging from the traces on the corpse, it should be the same person who did it.

Zheng Lunnaio probably knew that that person was on the move.

—Is this some kind of self-help?

He even vaguely looked forward to it.

After walking through many streets and alleys, he arrived at a gang stronghold.He saw his purpose.

A slender prosthetic fighter killed a gang member without haste, pulled out the storage device from his skull, and then yanked it hard with a stick, sending the fragments flying into a nearby burning fire.This warrior wears a hood, a cloak, and a scarf—this kind of warm clothing is very rare in this era.

Someone has already arrived before him.A prosthetic person... uses a neutral voice, and it is difficult to discern the psychological personal gender bias.He said fiercely: "I'm still doing this... I'm still doing this! What's the use? You're going to die soon! Please, think of a way... think of a way!"

He seemed to be emotionally broken.

"The collective memory compiled by this gang may become the seed of the green forest, and it must be carefully eliminated."

The man leaned on a stick and looked up at the sky: "The 'old friend' over there gave me such a little time, and I can't do anything else. Let's just make a little contribution to my hometown in this life."

"But what should you do..." The stranger knelt down on the ground: "But what should you do...you haven't...Xiang Shan, you shouldn't just die here like this. You are the resurrected Xiang Shan, you..."

"'Xiang Shan' has died at least seven times, there is nothing he shouldn't die." Looking at the whiteness in the sky, Xiang Shan said: "I would like to give my life for this world a thousand times... It's a pity that this kind of thing is not death There's a lot to be had. It does look like the end of my life."

"But...but..."

"Don't be sad, my friend. Just like in the past, 'I' will be reborn..."

"But 'you' is not just 'Xiang Shan', you are also yourself!"

Xiang Shan nodded: "That's right, then do me a little favor."

He tore off his hood, scarf and cloak.

"This is the magnetic core fabric, and the content inside is a few magnetic chains." Xiang Shan said: "I have only thought about this in my life, and it is a pity to lose it. I haven't had time to verify the power, but even with 'Xiang Shan' From the perspective of others, it can also be called a good concept. If it is polished in battle, it will be optimized to a stronger point."

——In this life...in the future...will...

These keywords once again made Zheng Lunnaio feel the pain.
