Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Thinking of this, Chen Yan suddenly realized something.

'By the way, Miao Shuisheng wanted me to call him last night at around 3 o'clock this afternoon. Although I didn't respond at the time, from now on, it would be better to contact him. '

Chen Yan made a decision in his heart.

'Anyway, there's no way to contact Ogami now, so I'll go back and talk to Miao Shuisheng first and see what he says. '

With this idea in mind, Chen Yan locked the office door and windows, picked up the phone and dialed Miao Shuisheng's number.

After a few seconds, the call was connected.

"Mr. Chen."

Miao Shuisheng's undisguised annoyance came out from the microphone.

"Noble Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen who takes a break from his busy schedule, are you finally free now?"

Miao Shuisheng felt to Chen Yan like a murderer at the end of his life. He was constantly struggling in an unsolvable predicament with his ferocity, but his ferocity could not even make any changes to himself.

"Yes."

Chen Yan spoke without any emotion. In addition, he simulated Xanthium's calmness with absolute indifference - which made Miao Shuisheng feel the pressure subtly.

"To make a long story short, Mr. Miao, I need you to tell me something."

It was "I need you to tell me something" rather than "What do you have to say to me?" Chen Yan did not even explain why he contacted him a few hours late - conveying thoughts to Miao Shuisheng After being willing to communicate, Chen Yan has temporarily been in the position of Party A in this game.

Chen Yan's arrogance and unreasonableness immediately aroused the other party's resistance, but the other party obviously wanted something from him, so he did not express his resistance too strongly:

"That's great. Ha, after a long ordeal, I still have to answer Mr. Chen's question first!"

After saying this, there was a period of silence on the other side of the phone. From this silence, Chen Yan felt complex emotions such as anger, pain and fear.

There seems to be something wrong with Miao Shuisheng's mentality...

Chen Yan felt something was wrong, so he realized that he had to keep the story short:

"I need to know how you make your [identity carrier] in the BIOS hear your voice."

This didn't seem to be a very valuable question. Miao Shuisheng answered directly without bargaining:

"The channel established through lucid dreaming requires sound to be transmitted through lucid dreaming - you have to simulate a lucid dream in the mind of [logo carrier], so that this lucid dream is the same as what [logo carrier] sees in front of you, so that Come, the lucid dream frequency will be synchronized with the real frequency in the BIOS, and when the synchronization is completed, you can transmit your voice."

Miao Shuisheng emphasized:

"It must be noted that this lucid dream is not your lucid dream, but the lucid dream you generated in the other person's head - that is to say, the other person must have a consciousness that can have a [lucid dream].

If it is not an individual with independent consciousness, or if the structure of consciousness does not match the mechanism of the lucid dreaming software, unpredictable consequences will occur. "

In addition, you must have a device that can maintain your mental strength. According to my past experience, generating a [lucid dream] in the BIOS is very mentally draining. If you want to use external force to maintain your mental strength in this world, , you must use drugs and physical stimulation. "

I see... I think the mechanical matrix I saw in Xanthium's room on the third island chain had this function.

"What if I don't?"

"...If there is no such device, you must have a strong enough will."

Well, that counts.

Chen Yan had experience in making other people have lucid dreams when dealing with counterfeiters before, but as for the "device to maintain mental strength", Chen Yan had no clue at all, and it was impossible to build it on his own. Now Miao Shuisheng gave another answer, and Chen Yan thought that he could give it a try and quit immediately if he found something was wrong. There must be no danger.

“It’s really nice to get such a detailed explanation.”

Although Chen Yan said this, he actually didn't think so. He couldn't be sure whether Miao Shuisheng's truth was mixed with false information, so he needed to verify it carefully in actual operations.

"So, Mr. Miao, what do you need to tell me?"

Chen Yan is a very fair person. If he gets helpful information from Miao Shuisheng, he will definitely give feedback.

After silence, Miao Shuisheng had calmed down a lot when he spoke again:

"Xanthium is lying to you. He doesn't want to cooperate with you. He just wants to get the method to enter the BIOS through you."

Well, I could have guessed this a long time ago. When Xanthium tried to trick me, I did not choose to argue with him, just because I was not a murderer.

Miao Shuisheng continued:

"Whether you are dead or alive, whether your deal with him is concluded or not, no matter what useful information you get from him, none of these things matter.

But he failed, there was something wrong with the spell you gave him, which delayed his progress, which is important, so he was unhappy. "

Xanthium already knew that the reason why the quantum entanglement spell failed was because of boson blockade. Miao Shuisheng also knew about it, but judging from the tone of Miao Shuisheng talking about it, he didn't care.

He didn't care about Xanthium's experiment.

He doesn't care if Xanthium succeeds.

Haha, it's really interesting. Miao Shuisheng and Xanthium's goals are actually different!
This pair... father and son, is really interesting.

Chen Yan discovered this very interesting fact, but Chen Yan didn't say anything because the information was not worth his waste of time to reply to. Miao Shuisheng's attitude was erratic and he could not be regarded as a friend at all, so it was impossible for Chen Yan to gain anything. of goodwill.

Miao Shuisheng seemed to know what Chen Yan was thinking, and he continued:
"In terms of probing the BIOS, Xanthium has more than just your path. He also has other methods - he wants to control a very special thing through the Spring God Secret Order. According to what he revealed According to the news, it should be the coffin of the Grand Commander."

It seems that I heard some terrible news.

Miao Shuisheng did not stop at all when discussing these absolute taboos. He did not even use this information in exchange for corresponding rewards. He seemed to... just want to pour out this information to relieve his own stress and discomfort - Synaesthesia told I learned about Chen Yan.

Although synaesthesia captured this information, Chen Yan still remained wary of Miao Shuisheng, because he knew very well that Miao Shuisheng was different from anyone he knew - what he was facing was a flesh-and-blood ascended person, a person with the power from He was not sure whether this superman could hide his emotions or compile completely different emotions to deceive synesthetes. "The reason why he did this was firstly because he had premeditated it, and secondly because the path you gave to enter the BIOS was blocked and he needed to try another path."

Chen Yan asked:

"[Beta-type cancer], does he firmly believe that this thing is a new path to ascension? Where does his confidence come from?"

Miao Shuisheng's answer was brief and confident:
"His vision is far beyond what you think. His perspective on problems is almost completely different from yours. His stance is destined to make him...different from anyone else."

After saying these meaningless words to Chen Yan, Miao Shuisheng continued:
"Now, I don't know where he has gone...he is within the empire...probably an academic. What I am sure of is that he must have his own identity. He is either an agent of a certain academy or a member of a certain academy. A scholar with a high status must have some power in his hands, so he can communicate with Starlink at any time and get the latest news in the [Dark Zone] outside Starlink."

Chen Yan heard this and thought to himself, Xanthium came to the Empire a long time ago. He graduated from the same generation as Chen Changsheng. Opportunities were everywhere at that time. It seemed that he was lucky enough to be a scholar of the Imperial University. Something too outrageous?

However, Miao Shuisheng did not know much about Xanthium's past, which meant that after Miao Shuisheng's "birth", Xanthium did not fully tell him his experience.

Do you still remain wary of the children you raised?

This guy Xanthium has a really cold nature.

Chen Yan still wanted to find wishes and didn't want to waste time here. As a feedback to these "novel" knowledge, he finally asked:
"So, Mr. Miao, why are you telling me this?"

Miao Shuisheng answered the wrong question:
"Mr. Chen, you are becoming more and more like a Ruk indigenous businessman. There is no temptation when you speak, and you don't leave yourself any room for change. You are so straightforward..."

"Then, let me tell you, what Xanthium wants to do may be part of the [Apocalypse]."

Chen Yan asked with great interest:
"What is he going to do? It can't be a biological crisis..."

Halfway through the question, a smile froze on his face.

Xanthium's words...

Miao Shuisheng did not show anger at his frivolity:
"Then, our communication ends here. Mr. Chen, I hope to exchange information with you and share all information in the next time. Goodbye."

Before Chen Yan could agree, he hung up the phone.

Miao Shuisheng hid his emotions very well. It was not until the words fell that Chen Yan caught a trace of vibrato in his voice - synaesthesia keenly caught the vibrato, and told Chen Yan that Miao Shuisheng's situation was not optimistic and his mood was very bad. There are great ups and downs, the physiological state is very poor, and it is likely to be in a crisis-ridden environment.

'Who is not in a dangerous environment...'

He hung up the phone, opened the lucid dreaming software, and used his quantum clone to enter the coordinates of his wish. When he hit the run button, an idea flashed through his mind.

'No matter what, you have to survive first...'

Between the overlapping of strange lights and shadows, Chen Yan gained the vision of desire——

At a decadent dance, dancers with incredible beauty and perfect body proportions were smiling coquettishly and being chased by gang members in suits. Some of them were squeezed to the window, some fell into the pool, and some were blocked against the wall. In the blind spots, those gangsters in suits and ties can always find the loopholes they deliberately leave, and they can always be provoked by them to the point of being desperate.

The scene in the ball was rotten, and the rain was pouring in the darkness outside the ball. From Chen Yan's perspective - from the perspective of desire, he could easily see the heavy rain woven into a white curtain outside the window, and the distant scenery that was covered by the rain curtain but was still dazzling. Neon billboard - [Binary Taiyuan Illusion, helping you dream of becoming a god king!Limited time discount of 1000 years = 10 computing power points, recharge 500 and get 1000. For more discounts, please inquire...]

An ear-numbing sound soon came from the venue, but Desire was not affected by those sounds. She said to the "half-robot" sitting across from the waxed square wooden table:
"Jiao Sang, I have already killed the person you are talking about, and I have brought all the goods you want downstairs. Now, I want the ticket."

The body of the man chasing him was half flesh and half machinery. It was unknown how the gears and transistors were embedded in the flesh. From the outside, it looked completely out of place.

Jiao Sang raised his wine glass and looked at the wish with a lewd expression. Chen Yan, who had acquired the vision of wish, felt the same way. He said to the wish in a very teasing tone:

"My brother paid for that ticket with his life. If I just hand it over, I'm afraid my brother's spirit will not be able to rest in peace in heaven..."

The wish tone is unhappy:

"What on earth do you want!"

The other party's eyes were even more vulgar, staring at the wishful body:
"It's been a long time since I..."

Before the words could be spoken, Xixi suddenly raised his gun and shot him in the head.

The other party didn't even think about it at the moment before he died. He clearly wanted the ticket with the unique key, so why did he dare to kill him so easily as he was the only one who knew the key?

Desire to kill the leader of the opposing gang. Such an impulsive and unreasonable incident immediately caused chaos on the dance floor.

In an instant, gunshots rang out, screams were heard, and the sound of shattering glass marked the pouring rain rolling back toward the dance floor. The splashes of artificial tissue fluid and engine oil could not cool down the boiling blood.

When the dispute ended, only two people were left alive on the dance floor.

Gangster Ma Zai limped towards Wishong and was about to claim credit, but suddenly he saw Wishful raising his gun and killing him.

'She is always so decisive in doing things...'

Chen Yan didn't know what to say. Although Wish was decisive in her impression, it was really not that murderous. The Wish in front of her was too calm.

But if you think about it carefully, in this helpless place where danger is everywhere and you may die for various reasons at any time, how could she survive by relying on other things besides being ruthless?

After wishing to kill the people, he squatted in front of Jiao Sang, who was already dead. He transformed his fingers into a knife and easily cut open the nerve pipeline and safety device of Jiao Sang's brain, revealing the chip.

It was an old brain-machine chip without any markings. It still vaguely looked like the chip in Chen Yan’s memory, but it was very different from the current chip that Chen Yan lived in - this chip In fact, it can be called a "chip" because it looks like a block. The transistor structure and manufacturing logic must be much more complicated than Chen Yan's current chip.

Desire pulled out a special data line from her ear. Under her operation, the tip of the data line extended out an extremely thin line - much thinner than a hair - Chen Yan was sure that it was a neural pipeline - This extremely thin wire was connected to an invisible interface on the Jiao Sang "core block".

Soon, Wish got what she wanted - Chen Yan knew this from her surprised expression - so she quickly put away her neural tubes, put on her black raincoat, and prepared to leave the dance floor.

At this time, Chen Yan thought it was time, and tried to simulate a lucid dream through the awareness of wishes through the lucid dream software on his computer.

While performing the lucid dream simulation, he immediately felt a nervous breakdown.

'Miao Shuisheng didn't lie. Simulating a lucid dream environment in the BIOS does consume a lot of energy. '

But fortunately, he can still hold on.
