Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 945 Miao Shuisheng's Nightmare Drifting ([-])

He obviously knew that Chen Yan had concerns.

Chen Yan thought for a while, and he was still counting on Professor Lawyer to save Klein. If he refused even this request now, how could he still have the nerve to talk about saving Klein in the future?

Since Professor Lawyer proposed to come to Days Island to meet him, he just followed suit and asked him to meet Klein after studying the dead octopus.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan immediately replied:
"No problem, as long as it's convenient for you, there's nothing wrong with bringing along researchers. I'm a law-abiding citizen of the empire, and I can see the light."

He immediately reported the berth number of his ship at the dock on Days Island.

Professor Lawyer was obviously relieved, and said:

"Okay, I will be there around five o'clock this afternoon, please wait for me!"

Chen Yan agreed immediately.

The two reached an agreement in this way, and each achieved their respective goals, so they went offline and waited for the meeting at five o'clock in the afternoon.

……

……

At this moment.

Days Island, mechanical hive.

W-7 District, Lianhua Avenue, Miao Shuisheng's villa.

After nearly two days of special preparations, the second floor of Miao Shuisheng Villa was filled with various instruments and equipment that ordinary people could not name.

Those devices that seem to have a lot of buttons are regularly arranged in a circular matrix, and the devices are connected by a large number of cables. In the center of the matrix is ​​a laboratory table like an operating table.

On the top of the experimental platform, where the people lying on the experimental platform can just see with their eyes open, a mechanical hand is suspended from the ceiling, and a display screen less than [-] inches is fixed on the mechanical hand. various data parameters.

These devices are functional devices customized by Miao Shuisheng through a secret programmer team——according to the characteristics of [Lucid Dreams], he hired a programmer team to perform functional software simulation on it, compiled it into a programming language, and These programming languages ​​are packaged and become software.

Miao Shuisheng designed an external control system for the packaged [Miao Shuisheng Version Lucid Dreaming Software]—the data control device in this room is the basis for the operation of [Miao Shuisheng Version Lucid Dreaming Software].

'[Lucid dreaming] is not just a dream experienced by people in a state of maintenance. '

——Miao Shuisheng made a decision based on such considerations:

'I was able to go to a deeper world through [lucid dreaming], which shows that [lucid dreaming] can at least generate a [consciousness projection] for me.

In other words, [Lucid Dreams] projected my consciousness into a deeper world—on the premise of having clear coordinates. '

——Miao Shuisheng repeatedly deduced his previous experience and came to this conclusion.

'I think [lucid dreaming] should be more than that—I think [lucid dreaming] must have more functions, and I need to explore it in the next incident. '

There is a machine in the circular mechanical matrix on the second floor of the villa that can record Miao Shuisheng's physiological state in detail, which is the key to Miao Shuisheng's exploration of "Lucid Dreams".

At this moment, Miao Shuisheng is lying on the experimental table. The various acupuncture points on his body - that is the ancient knowledge taught to him by Professor Xanthium - these acupuncture points are covered with "anti-static stickers" used to detect physiological states. A slender data cable is used to return information to the machine - Miao Shuisheng's body is almost covered with such stickers, so the data cable seems to surround him like a spider web.

Among the cobweb-like data lines, there are several distinctive data lines—some micron-sized medical infusion tubes were connected to the back of his head from another medical-grade instrument, and the needles were connected through vacuum buckles. Several infusion points embedded in his spinal cord.

He lay in a natural position, staring at the display screen above the experimental table. After making sufficient mental preparations, he pressed the button on the control panel he was holding.

The next moment, a pipe connected to an instrument began to inject some kind of liquid into his body—that was some kind of hormone that could regulate his physiological state—Miao Shuisheng chose some mixed hormones according to his own knowledge to adjust his body. Physiological state to adapt and strengthen one's mental state in [Lucid Dreams].

The hormone entered the back of the brain, Miao Shuisheng's pupils began to dilate, his body became numb, and his mind became sensitive - he gradually began to feel the almost undetectable breeze in the air, and smell the aroma of coffee thrown into the trash can last night Mixed with the smell of fermented garbage, I heard whispers between two young lovers a few blocks away.

He pressed the second button on the control panel in his hand with fingers that were so numbed that he could hardly control it.

As another dark green hormone entered another part of the back of the brain, Miao Shuisheng's skin began to become stiff, and his body almost completely lost consciousness, but at the same time, his spirit was further strengthened—suddenly, the entire sky appeared In front of him, he looked down, and saw that Dyce Island looked like an ugly oval skull.

He resisted the urge to let the vision continue to rise.

So the entire field of vision dropped rapidly, until it descended into its own villa on Lianhua Avenue, W-7 area of ​​the mechanical hive, until it saw its own body, until it entered its own body.

The body gains a moment of initiative at this moment.

Everything is in plan.

He seized this poor little initiative, let his fingers tremble again, and pressed the third button.

Following the injection of the third crimson hormone into the back of the brain, Miao Shuisheng's out-of-body spirit was suddenly pulled back to the body, and quickly moved deeper into the body.

When the light and shadow in front of him changed several times, the huge hissing sound almost tore Miao Shuisheng's spirit apart!

After an unknown amount of time passed, Miao Shuisheng got used to this painful feeling of mental tearing, and the light and shadow in front of him also began to change.

Unexamined, it seems like a dream that has gone through an unknown amount of time.

Countless whispers flooded into my mind, and endless colorful lights and shadows appeared one after another.

Miao Shuisheng suddenly opened his eyes when a breeze brushed his cheeks.

He stared blankly at everything in front of him——

The window in front of him was clear and clean, a piece of white was not dazzling under the light, but slightly pale.

A few crows crowed into the ears, and the smell of disinfectant flooded into the nostrils. Miao Shuisheng finally woke up and noticed someone in front of him—a few silent people lying scattered on the bed in front of him. People with bandages on their heads and eyes, or missing arms and legs... In short, their bodies are more or less disabled.

It turned out to be...

a ward? !

Miao Shuisheng couldn't understand.

He came to this place (Chapter 899) according to the coordinates sent by the final sacrifice of the choral group. He thought this should be the hidden headquarters of the Byron Weiss Group, or maybe some kind of laboratory, but he didn’t expect here……

It will be a ward.

The priest of the choral group who joined him made it clear that this is not only a deeper world, but also the source of omnic disease (Chapter 898).

The source of omnic disease... from a ward?
Isn't omnipotence a disease caused by the incompatibility between brain-computer and consciousness?It stands to reason that even if it does appear, shouldn't it appear in a laboratory with computers and brain-computer implants?

The situation in front of him obviously exceeded Miao Shuisheng's expectations.

Miao Shuisheng can still recall the words said by the final sacrificial priest:

'I'll send you the coordinates, and unlike last time, this time you're going to meet a lot of people in that place, but these people are in a bad, bad,... scary way.

They are suffering from a disease, which is incurable in a certain sense. There is no way to cure them in the real world, so they can only go to the source of the disease, to a deeper world...'

But these people in front of me...

Miao Shuisheng looked at these people.

They are clearly just flesh and blood.

Although Miao Shuisheng is not a researcher of the deeper world, he also knows some basic principles: For example, what kind of existence is the deeper world? High things—such as wards, such as patients in bandages—these have concrete meanings and are not abstract at all, and generally do not appear in the deeper world.

Things in the deeper world will not be so specific.

Generally very abstract.

The words of the final sacrifice reappeared in Miao Shuisheng's mind:

'The situation with these people is dire... frightening...'

Seeing the patients whose skin was almost transparent, Miao Shuisheng was puzzled.

Where are these people scary?Isn't it just a group of patients?

Miao Shuisheng is not afraid. In fact, apart from cocklebur, there is no one in this world that makes Miao Shuisheng afraid.

There is another important reason why he is not afraid—he came prepared this time—the machines that cost a lot of money to buy stabilized his spirit, and the lucid dream that was made into software was carried out through those machines. Running——The lucid dream software runs on those machines, which are much more reliable than running on ordinary computers. The parameters of those machines are all tailored for him, and can help him to the greatest extent——

He coded [Lucid Dreams] into software, used machines capable of stabilizing and strengthening brain waves and human physiological functions as hardware, and ran his own consciousness on the [Lucid Dreams] software——

His experiment was successful, and lucid dreams became clearer before him, almost approaching the clarity of the real world.

'I speculated before: [lucid dreaming] just projected my consciousness into [deeper world], and when my spirit is strong enough, [projection] will be clearer-my current state proves this. '

Another insurance prepared by Miao Shuisheng is the compound hormones that enter the spinal cord through small tubes.

Those things adjusted his physical state, and thus strengthened his spirit.

Miao Shuisheng has long discovered that when one's mental strength is higher—when one's mental strength is higher in this world, and one enters a lucid dream in such a mental state, the power in the lucid dream will be stronger.

He obtained some spirit-enhancing hormones through old channels. Those things are very dangerous, and ordinary people will go crazy when they encounter them.

'But I won't, hehe, I'm a real monster! '

Laughing at himself, Miao Shuisheng came to a hospital bed and looked at the man on the bed.

The man was about 40 years old, and his distinctive facial features represented his identity as an indigenous Luke native of the empire, while the bandaged part of his body represented his other identity—a patient.

The man's eyes were blank, and he looked like a puppet. Miao Shuisheng counted the bandaged parts of his body. There were thirteen parts in total, and the degree of incompleteness and size of each part varied.

These wounds... don't look like natural wounds.

"Natural injury", this damn word was developed by some experimenters, and it has no other effect except to comfort them.

Since it is not a natural injury, it must be an unnatural injury, and most of the unnatural injuries are actively "created" during the experiment.

Miao Shuisheng shifted his gaze to the patients on other beds.

They are experiments.

Miao Shuisheng moved his gaze between the eyes of the patients and the wound.

Now that they have almost lost their ability to move, what danger are they in?

Miao Shuisheng realized that something was wrong, but he didn't know the source of the danger, so he couldn't take precautions for the time being.

'I am just a [projection] of consciousness in a deeper world. Even if these people suffer from omnic disease, they cannot infect me through [projection], because omnic disease must be transmitted through carbon-based and silicon-based, and【 Projection] is not one of the two. '

Miao Shuisheng analyzed it in his heart.

'In the final analysis, omnic disease itself needs a carrier, whether it is carbon-based or silicon-based, it must be infected and transmitted through a life carrier. '

So, he tried to communicate with the man on the hospital bed in front of him.

"who are you?"

The other party obviously responded to his inquiry - the man raised his head mechanically, his dull eyes gradually focused on Miao Shuisheng's face, then opened his mouth, and spit out a completely puzzling answer:
"I am the master of the lightning storm! Pretended by death! The master of mechanical wrench and expansion screw! The fire starter who burns the flame of life!"

Miao Shuisheng was shocked by these words and didn't react for a while.

With the help of machines and hormones, Miao Shuisheng came to his senses after 1 second. The machines in the villa on Lianhua Avenue in W-7 District collected this sentence and compared it with the big data in the Internet, and came to a conclusion :
According to this person, he should be a part-time electrician's fitter.

Miao Shuisheng thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this person's description really matched the title of "part-time electrician's fitter"—"master of lightning storm" could be "electrician with arc welding tools"; "person coveted by death" "can be "a person who will die at any time due to high-intensity overtime work"; "the master of mechanical wrench and expansion screw" is obviously "fitter"; Excessive fatigue is equivalent to consuming life."

It's too abstract...
