Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 995 A Name That Doesn't Exist
Miao Shuisheng said this, but Miao Shuisheng didn't know why he said it, he didn't know who he had been waiting for for a long time, and he didn't know who he was going to pick up.

'That's weird, where am I?What on earth am I going to do? '

Although the dream was sober, the protagonist of the dream did not seem to be him, but just a person who looked exactly like him. Miao Shuisheng saw his own face in the mirror, and the clearly visible silver-gray dividing lines on his face.

'what happened?Why am I a brain robot in my dream? '

Miao Shuisheng was frightened, but he did not become more conscious because of the fright.

The brain-machine body is a good thing, and the omnic transformation has infinite charm. After eliminating the only threat of omnic disease through "patching", the omnic transformation has been able to become a human being in the form of life. The fastest and safest way to go further - this does not mean that Miao Shuisheng wants to carry out omnic transformation.

On the contrary, according to the information given by Xanthium, once Miao Shuisheng undergoes an omnic transformation on himself, the price he will pay is not only the super body that has ascended to flesh and blood, but also the evolved spiritual consciousness and brain machine. The problem of high mismatch - neither the mimetic neural network nor the Turing architecture can correctly simulate Miao Shuisheng's current neuromorphology, which means that once he undergoes omnium transformation on himself, he will suffer from alienated omnic disease. ——The super powerful omnic disease virus will destroy his brain-computer equipment in a short time.

He hates Xiangu, but hatred does not mean denial. On the contrary, the knowledge Xiangu possesses and the achievements he has achieved in this life allow Miao Shuisheng to maintain sufficient trust in him. Such trust depends entirely on "Xiangu is a person." "A wise man with top academic status in a taboo-level school on the extraordinary side of society", rather than what means Xanthium used to obtain those taboo knowledge.

'Damn, that old thing is still haunting me in my dreams...'

He filtered out his bad thoughts and looked at the mirror in front of him again - in fact, his behavior was not under his control. He could see himself in the mirror now only because the self in the dream was looking at the mirror. That’s all.

In addition to the obvious brain-machine body, there is also this strange gang costume - Miao Shuisheng can be very clear that he is wearing a tights made of optical fibers of various calibers in the mirror. The data is expressed in the form of exaggerated light pollution, as if the entire body is covered by the upstream and downloaded data streams - the obviously high-tech outfit is so dreary against the backdrop of such dense light pollution, Miao Shui is unprecedented. He felt "embarrassed" and ashamed. If he were in the empire, he would never go out wearing this outfit!
But it's not him who has the final say now.

Miao Shuisheng, who was in a lucid dream, left his room filled with dark pink lights, passed through a bar aisle filled with all kinds of ghosts and gods and strange heads, and entered the lobby of a bar smelling the strong smell of machine oil mixed with the stinky smell. , worshiped the gleaming electronic martial arts statue erected at the door of the bar, and then walked out of the bar.

It was raining heavily outside the bar. The rain caused the neon lights of various colors to disperse crazily, making the streets in the dark like a horde of demons dancing.

The streets are very narrow, but there are still pedestrians passing through them.

Miao Shuisheng just put on his hat and passed by pedestrians who didn't know whether they were humans or ghosts. He went around alley after alley until he left the area where the rain was.

Behind an abandoned repair shop, Miao Shuisheng watched himself riding a long motorcycle with a length of about 3 meters and a width of only 0.3 meters. The motorcycle looked like it was pieced together from scrap metal. The strange thing drove on a road among the mountains of rusted machinery, avoiding zombie monsters that might rush out from the gaps in the buildings next to the "street" at any time, and avoiding the incomplete steel bars that were everywhere as sharp as the tip of a knife, in the dust Hold your breath as much as possible in the sand area and radiation area (Miao Shuisheng thought this was completely useless, because he saw the green radiation pool next to the road with his own eyes).

After a thrilling shuttle ride, the motorcycle arrived at its destination—a small private apron covered with grass, located in the middle of a ruined city.

The wrapped tarmac is in a secret location, almost completely surrounded by urban ruins. Only a crack on the top is just enough for the small helicopter on the tarmac to ascend - it looks like the aircraft will be destroyed if not careful.

Miao Shuisheng parked the motorcycle outside the apron and entered the small helicopter cockpit in the center of the apron.

This helicopter looks normal, but the parts have obviously aged very badly. Some of the buttons on the center console have been replaced with colloid wrapped with broken plastic. You can tell at a glance that it was made who knows how many years ago. The old guy.

Miao Shuisheng saw himself in the dream turning on the power and debugging the machine in a familiar way. With a harsh cough, like that of a dying old man, the helicopter began to rise unsteadily.

This machine is not very good, but Miao Shuisheng's skills are really good. He narrowly avoided some obstacles that would destroy the machine at a glance. It took him less than a minute to complete the machine. Drive the helicopter out of the hidden space above the helipad and truly enter the huge space of the city.

From the corner of his eyes, he witnessed this shocking scene again - the ruins of the city extending into the darkness in the distance made the vision mistakenly think that the whole world was covered with cities, and the layers of cities below seemed like A whirlpool, but also like an abyss... Yes!abyss!Layer after layer, the deeper it becomes, the more decadent it becomes, and the deeper it gets, the more desperate it becomes!
Miao Shuisheng looked at the abyss of the lower city that also spread into the darkness, and felt breathless.

These ruins...ruins that can barely be called cities are actually not just uninhabited lands that have been abandoned for various reasons. Take the nearest first-level city as an example. From the helicopter, Miao Shuisheng not only saw the continuous In the dysentery-like slum, he also saw an office building that was as brilliant as a golden torch - Miao Shuisheng had to work hard to tell that it was an office building. The densely packed shadows moving in the bright building like ants in an anthill were the employees in the office building.

'These people don't know who they are serving...'

Miao Shuisheng did not think about this matter, firstly because where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, there will be society, and secondly, because Miao Shuisheng has long learned not to use his own concepts to forcefully understand the incomprehensible.

The most dazzling place in the entire space is actually the place where there is light in the ruins - it is usually a brighter street set off by darkness. The flashing neon lights on those streets reminded Miao Shuisheng of the high streets of Yanan City. Even on the coldest winter day, the whole street smells vulgar and full of hormones.

Such streets are scattered in every corner of the city on each level, looking like small segments of stars in the night sky. Miao Shuisheng knew that things were not as beautiful as he imagined. This ghost place was not meant to be used at all. The almost ubiquitous radiation pools where people live are enough to prove the harsh living environment here.

Amid the ear-piercing roar of the engine, the difficult-to-pilot helicopter led Miao Shuisheng forward, over the mountains of urban ruins, bypassing the "radiation hazard" signboards that appeared on buildings from time to time, and in a few After shuttling through the huge pipe, we finally reached our destination.

It was a floating factory that seemed to use very good magnetic power equipment, so Miao Shuisheng did not see the engine that supported the factory's suspension in the air.

'Why should factories be built in the sky?Mostly to avoid the dangers in the city. '

The huge chimney like a large reactor in the center of the main body of the factory has a weathered corporate logo printed on it. Even with the clearest view from a high altitude, it is too incomplete to figure out what the logo looks like. .

'What on earth was I dreaming of... was it some deeper world?But why is there another me in the deeper world? '

Miao Shuisheng realized that this lucid dream was not simple. He thought to himself that maybe this lucid dream had some unique meaning.

The helicopter began to descend as it approached the square in front of the factory, until it stopped on the tarmac in front of the factory that was also covered with grass, but was obviously taken care of by someone.

Turning his perspective, Miao Shuisheng saw a girl holding a crowbar.

I don't know if it was due to the sight or the reason of the lucid dream itself, but Miao Shuisheng couldn't see the girl's face - the girl's face was blurry, more blurry than a mosaic. Miao Shuisheng could only judge her face from her clothes. Occupation - school uniform, black stockings -

This is obviously a girl.Why is this girl holding a crowbar?

Miao Shuisheng didn't know.

He only saw himself sitting in the cockpit, turning to look at the girl and said:

"Come up! Once you enter this factory, you will be infected with the electronic evil spirit. You must come back with me to knock on wooden fish to atone for your sins!"

The girl walked up to him, sat in the passenger compartment, and asked him:
"Did Chen Yan ask you to come to me?"

Um? !Does this girl know Chen Yan?

What surprised Miao Shuisheng was yet to come. In his lucid dream, he quickly answered:

"Who is Chen Yan? Lord Turing sent me here."

Before the girl knew what was going on, the helicopter had already taken off again.

The girl asked Miao Shuisheng what he did. Miao Shuisheng said that he was a manager of human resources management in a company and usually had a lot of contact with human resources, so he picked up this business.

The girl asked what the business was, and Miao Shuisheng didn't hide anything. He told her that Lord Turing was one of the few gods who protected the company. As long as he was sincere and made offerings, he could receive money from Lord Turing. Order, follow the instructions on the software order to complete the task, and you will be able to obtain "one hexagram of your wish coming true" - no matter what requirements you submit to Him through the software, Lord Turing will satisfy you - as long as you don't go too far.

The girl asked him what Lord Turing was, but he hesitated and couldn't tell.

Miao Shuisheng looked at himself who couldn't explain clearly, and thought to himself, what on earth was he talking about?Why does it sound like some kind of evil god who can control the world?

No, this is a deeper world. What the evil god controls is not the current world, but the deeper world itself.

Miao Shuisheng thought to himself, the evil god who could control the deeper world must at least be a high-level god left over from the previous generation, right?
However, this place doesn't look like a previous generation...

Miao Shuisheng had an ominous premonition in his heart.

This place... is more like a later generation - a generation that was once glorious but declined due to unknown reasons.

He does know about the Turing chip, but the Turing chip is completely a technological creation. Turing itself is only a data life that follows the underlying laws that are beneficial to mankind, and will not make any changes to the world for the sake of this so-called fortune-telling software. Change.

Or maybe the Turing chip in this world has undergone some kind of change and turned into a special existence serving a certain fortune-telling software?

Anyway...it's hard to say.

The girl asked him a few more names, which Miao Shuisheng knew - Empire, Stavo Heavy Industries, Choir, Island Chain, and Internet of Things.

'It seems that the lucid dream is still just calling up my memory to rearrange and combine, so the girl in my dream knows these names. '

Until the girl said the names "Chen Yan, Swam, Ogami..." the situation was considered normal. Xanthium had done a very detailed investigation on Chen Yan, so Miao Shuisheng also knew these names. Familiar.

Until a strange name jumped out of the girl's mouth, things suddenly became wrong.

"Saphant G. Samael White."

Miao Shuisheng in this world was stunned for a moment after hearing this complicated name, and then he lost his grip on the steering wheel. The helicopter shook violently in mid-air. It took him a full minute to stabilize the helicopter again.

"It cannot be said! It cannot be mentioned!"

Miao Shuisheng turned around in panic and said to the girl:
"Girl! Remember! Never mention this name again! It's one of the absolute taboos in the neighborhood!"

It's so baffling... so mysterious!
"Fortunately, I'm not in the neighborhood...Fortunately I haven't entered the neighborhood yet! Fortunately, my phone is turned off! Otherwise, I would be in trouble! The legendary Saphant is lurking in every corner, in the receiver of every mobile phone, and in In the imaging room of every camera, it listens to everything and senses everything! It will enter your brain along your antenna when you turn off your phone, allowing you to listen to taboos that you should not listen to, and you will go to the company like crazy Peripheral! Then you’re doomed!”

Miao Shuisheng racked his brains and couldn't remember where the name [Saphant G. Samuel White] came from - even if it was a random arrangement, he had never heard such an illogical combination. The arrangement of names was completely unlike any name that could be compiled by any known nation in the empire - of course he had never heard of it!

Absolute clarity made Miao Shuisheng realize a terrifying fact:

'I'm awake and I'm sure this name doesn't exist in my memory.

This strange name appears, then there are two possibilities:
The first possibility is that there is a foreign object mixed in my head. There is something dirty that is interfering with my thinking, or even injecting something into my consciousness.

The second possibility...this is not the deeper world that lucid dreaming can reach at all, but another...another world! '
