The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Chapter 476 Going Deeper

Another floor!
Snow-capped mountains, howling wind.

Zhou Dongyu, who was a dream designer, stood beside Luochen. They were on a cliff, and they were wearing white ski suits.

They held all white weapons in their hands. Luo Chen checked his sniper rifle and aimed it at the target:

There is a huge medical equipment base one or two kilometers below, and the fortifications are very strong.

Like a sudden monster standing in the white mountains.

It is a maze hospital, where the "truth" that Chen Kun needs to know is stored.

It rained cats and dogs, chasing and fleeing by road.

Hotel corridors, thugs in suits.

The snow-capped mountains are continuous and the sleds are speeding.

The triple dream, the three clues have been fully unfolded so far, but they are not simply progressive, but maintain parallel synchronization in the serial progression.

And there is still a time difference.

The three lines with different time flows are easily intertwined by the director as if playing with wool, which is dazzling but can mobilize the adrenaline of the audience.

At this moment, Zhou Junpeng was almost out of breath by the tense sense of urgency.

This miraculous three-layered narrative allows the blood flowing from Pan Yueming's abdomen in the first layer of dreams, and the sense of time urgency of the fast and exciting road gunfight chase to penetrate into the second and third layers of dreams in turn.

Although the time of each layer is equivalent to slowing down by twenty times compared with the previous layer.

But the sense of time urgency as if the second hand of the stopwatch is constantly moving makes people anxious.

On the second floor, Zhang Ruoyun designed the backlash, and on the third floor, the new adventures of the protagonist group were all attributed to the few seconds or minutes when the pharmacist drove the vehicle to dodge and escape in the first floor.

This kind of intense stimulation that contains a lot of information and the editing rhythm is so fast that it is difficult to think with the brain has completely surpassed that in "Matrix II". sense of urgency.

On the streets of the city center where the rain was pouring, the pharmacist drove left and right in the siege and interception.

In the corridor of the hotel, Zhang Ruoyun was about to make a recoil device, but was chased and intercepted by the hotel security guards projected by Chen Kun's subconscious in the dream on the second floor.

In the snow-covered mountains, Bai Yu slid down the mountain road, looking at the hospital maze ahead, he reached out to touch his backpack, and then released flames.

The guards on guard saw the glowing flames and sent out ski patrol, on sleds and snowmobiles, to check.

Seeing them getting closer, Bai Yu accelerated and let herself slide down the mountain, leaping on the snowy slope——

At this moment, the pharmacist on the street came out of the market in a van and started to drive up the highway from a ramp. Immediately approaching a bridge, a large black car hit the side of the van, pushing it and slamming it into the road. side obstacles.

As the cart continued to push harder, the van began to roll over slowly against the obstacle——

At the same time, what caused an uproar in the theater was that Zhang Ruoyun in the corridor of the hotel ran along the corridor, and the corridor began to tilt, so he was forced to fall on the wall.

Although the bodies of the sleeping Luo Chen and others lying in the room were tied to the chair, they also tilted and slid along with the tilt of the room.

In the snow-capped mountains, Bai Yu and others, who were staging a ski race with the patrol guards, found that their sliding trajectory was slowly losing balance.

Everyone's skating began to unconsciously rush diagonally downward.

Under the bird's-eye view, the entire mountain began to tilt slowly but firmly!

The foundation of the several-story fortress-like hospital seemed to be loosening, and it was about to tilt and slide to one side.

"Rely on!"

Under the fast-slow-slower time flow, a visual spectacle spanning three layers of dreams is displayed simultaneously in different styles and angles.

In slow motion, the van turned almost 180 degrees, and the heads of the sleeping people who were tied to the seats by seat belts were facing down, and the thin yellow tubes attached to their wrists were flying in the air.

In the corridor of the hotel, when Zhang Ruoyun and the security guard were fighting against the wall, the entire corridor turned upside down, throwing them all to the wall, and the ceiling——has now become the floor.

In the white snow, the mountain seems to have stopped tilting.

But what really changed seemed to be gravity.

The sun was still up and the ground was still down, but all the people started to paddle towards the peak or roll away along with the snow on the mountain.

There was even an avalanche.

It's just an avalanche from the bottom of the mountain to the top.

The hospital fortress seemed to break free from its foundation and began to slide towards the top of the mountain against common sense, like a huge monster crushing countless hospital security personnel.

Everything seemed so spectacular, yet contrary to common sense, it was extremely weird.

The van finally made a complete 360-degree turn. After rolling over with a bang, the van landed heavily and stopped, driving towards the bridge deck on the river bank.

In the dream on the second floor, Zhang Ruoyun and the guard who hit the room from the corridor and from the ceiling to the wall also fell to the floor after a series of heart-pounding fights, and the guard was killed by a gunshot.

Zhang Ruoyun stood up, went back to the corridor, and walked towards the stairwell.

In the third layer of dreams, in the snow mountain, the gravity seems to have returned to its original state. Some of the snowflakes that had rushed out of the top of the mountain covered the sky, and then floated down. Another avalanche reversed its direction and slid down from the top of the mountain with countless potential energy.

In the dream on the second floor, Zhang Ruoyun ran along the stairs and opened a door of the room on the fourth floor. When he saw several guards standing outside the locked room of Luo Chen and others who were sleeping.

"Hi!"

When they turned around, Zhang Ruoyun flew back to the stairwell, and the guards followed and started shooting.

On the bridge, the pharmacist drove forward with all his strength, then he turned his head to see the situation behind him, and when he reached the edge of the guardrail, he began to fall backwards. When the bullet rain from the black car hit the van hard, he squatted down quickly The body looked at the watch.

The second hand moves slowly...

It's time for the first recoil from the completion of the scheduled action!
The pharmacist was a little anxious: "... I hope you are ready."

He grabbed a player, and then reached out to put the earphones on the sleeping Zhang Ruoyun's head.

As he did so, he noticed that Pan Yueming's bandage was leaking blood.

The pharmacist pressed the play button, and the familiar ethereal, ethereal and beautiful female singing resounded through the auditorium again.

In the stairwell of the hotel, Zhang Ruoyun stopped, and when he heard something—a thick and deep music tone—he raised his head in panic: "No, it's too early!"

Bullets exploded on the stairs around him.

The snow-covered mountain range, Luo Chen and Zhou Dongyu, who broke free from the snow, are sliding towards the labyrinth hospital at the foot of the mountain.

On the other side, Bai Yu's voice came from the radio: "Are you all right? Can you hear me?"

As Luo Chen listened, the wind sounded extremely low.

A trace of everything that seems to be nothing is mixed in the wind, elusive.

Bai Yu hid under the bushes: "I noticed this 20 minutes ago, at first I thought it was just the wind..."

Luo Chen listened carefully, and the "wind" changed its tune.

"No, that's music, it's too fast, the recoil is about to start, the action needs to be quicker."

Pan Yueming and Chen Kun trekked along a cliff, facing the maze directly in front of them: "We will try our best."

Zhou Dongyu looked at Luo Chen with concern: "How long do we have?"

Luo Chen: "The first floor of the dream is about to jump in 10 seconds, so the second floor will last for 3 minutes, and our floor has about—"

Zhou Dongyu: "60 minutes."

"The circuit you designed for them, can they complete it within an hour?"

"I think it's bad enough that they still have to climb down to the mezzanine platform."

"They need a new path, a shortcut."

"It's designed as a maze."

"Then find a convenient shortcut to directly access the maze."

Because Luo Chen had Qin Lan's split consciousness in his head, he might cause trouble at critical moments, so Zhou Dongyu never told Luo Chen about the maze designed by Zhou Dongyu in the third-layer dream.

But the pharmacists in the first dream world could no longer resist the continuous stream of men in black, and the counterattack was advanced, and time was even tighter. Therefore, Zhou Dongyu could only take the risk of telling everyone the shortcut of the maze—the ventilation duct system.

Except for Luo Chen and Zhou Dongyu guarding on the cliff, Bai Yu, Pan Yueming, and Chen Kun all began to go to the maze one after another. Among them, Pan Yueming and Bai Yu acted as cover to resist the surviving guards in the hospital, while Chen Kun began to climb the ventilation duct .

The pharmacist looked at the guards shooting in his direction in the car that kept coming in the distance, made up his mind, stepped on the gas pedal quickly - reversed quickly and hit the guardrail...

In slow motion, the van smashed through the reinforced concrete guardrail, and the whole body broke away from the bridge deck and fell in the air towards the river.

There was another exclamation in the theater.

The audience began to whisper to each other. Although the three-line interlaced narrative and audio-visual spectacle firmly grasped everyone's minds, not everyone could keep up with the development of the plot and understand the information in it.

Many viewers still haven't figured out why the pharmacist drove through the guardrail and threw his car into the river.

It's not that it's so difficult to understand, it's just that the pace is too fast and the amount of information is too much to distract people from thinking.

And Zhou Junpeng was one of the people in the theater who could react immediately.

"Backlash!"

His voice also made many audiences around, including his girlfriend, suddenly realize.

I see, this is the recoil?

But let alone the third floor, Zhang Ruoyun in the dream on the second floor seems not ready yet.

Isn't it about to fail?
In the corridor of the hotel, Zhang Ruoyun was suddenly bounced in the corridor, and then a violent explosion pushed him towards the elevator at the end of the corridor.

In the snow mountain, a violent avalanche caused Luo Chen and Zhou Dongyu to look at the opposite valley, and a huge crack appeared on the mountain.

Bai Yu rushed out of the bushes, and when he saw a huge crack ahead, he rolled down onto the snow again—the hillside began to fall in an avalanche again.

Pan Yueming heard the roar above them, he looked down, Chen Kun was below, only one face was buried outside.

"Beware!"

Pan Yueming cut the knot—they began to fall, hit the ice, and slid down the hillside, parting their way through the avalanche.

In extremely slow motion, the van rushed out of the reinforced concrete guardrail and began to fall.

Zhang Ruoyun was still flying over the aisle, and didn't land on the ground—gravity had disappeared... He tried hard to grab something, and then held a lamp on a wall.

Luo Chen witnessed the avalanche sliding through the maze like a cloud.

Zhou Dongyu: "What is that?"

Luo Chen: "The recoil bullet."

Bai Yu's gasping voice came from the radio: "Did we miss it?"

Luo Chen was a little frustrated: "...I missed it."

Bai Yu lay in the snow: "Then what the hell should we do now?"

Luo Chen's eyes became firm again: "Try to complete the task before the next recoil bullet."

"What next recoil?"

Luo Chen looked at Zhou Dongyu's puzzled eyes: "When the van fell into the water, I calculated that there were still several minutes left for the second floor, and about 20 minutes for our floor."

There is another village in the dark.

The audience breathed a sigh of relief again.

Zhou Junpeng also suddenly realized: "That's right, the moment the van touches the water is also a recoil!"

Pan Yueming and Chen Kun ran around the labyrinth base. They found a huge vent, then loaded explosives on the iron grid, blasted the place, and then climbed into the open vent.

Extreme slow motion: The van suddenly freezes as if ten stories above the water.

In the hotel, under the condition of complete loss of gravity, Zhang Ruoyun, like an astronaut on a space station, managed to float himself into a suite on the lower floor of room 528. He opened the door and saw the bomb placed on the ceiling.

"What should I do? There is no gravity, how can I let you fall?"

Recoil requires three layers to be completed simultaneously. In the absence of gravity, even if the floor is blown up with a bomb, recoil cannot be achieved.

Zhang Ruoyun floated into the room, and those sleeping people were still floating, connected by pipes.

Zhang Ruoyun looked at them, thinking rapidly.

Zhou Junpeng also tried for the Nth time to think about the solution simultaneously.

In a weightless environment, how can a strong falling effect be achieved?

But before Zhou Junpeng could come up with a solution, Zhang Ruoyun took action. He tied a group of sleeping people floating in the air together, pushed them to the elevator entrance, and then pressed the button, opened the elevator door, and pushed them away. go in.

He himself climbed out of the opening in the elevator ceiling with the explosives in his hands.

Zhang Ruoyun walked around the top of the elevator, and at the same time placed some small bombs on the emergency brake and cables of the elevator. After placing these, he pushed the other explosives away.

"clever!"

Zhou Junpeng also immediately understood Zhang Ruoyun's method, using explosives to destroy the brake system of the elevator, the traction rope lock is broken, and the potential energy accumulated in the brake system will burst out, creating an instant falling effect.

Chen Jingxing's movies are always in this style - there are no idiots, especially the protagonists.

The characters can always run faster than the audience's mind.

In the third layer of dream, Pan Yueming and Chen Kun rushed to the pipeline system, Pan Yueming fell behind, coughing badly, it seems that the injury on the first layer has worsened, and it has been transmitted to the third layer layer by layer.

Luo Chen knocked down a guard from behind, and he signaled Zhou Dongyu, while covering her and running towards him.They entered the base of the South Tower.

Luochen set up his sniper rifle in the south tower. Through the scope on the gun, he saw three guards on the balcony outside the front hall and three more guards in the room, and shot them down with his gun.

At the same time, Bai Yu installed a bomb at the lowest part of the wall of the labyrinth base, and he moved carefully—below the wall is a vertically falling cliff...

Pan Yueming's face was pale, and his body tremblingly nestled against the pipe wall of the pipe system. He took out the radio, and under his urging, Chen Kun landed alone along the ventilation pipe to the spacious front hall.

In front of him is a huge and complicated door, and behind the door is the answer he is looking for.

Although the audience in the movie hall didn't know what was behind the door, they all realized that this should be the last step of Zhi Nian, so they all raised their hearts.

But suddenly, Luo Chen caught a glimpse of something through the scope telescope.

There was something above the main window, and a ray of light from the sky passed by, interfering with his vision.

"No, someone else is there!"

When Luo Chen was about to fire, he froze - what he saw was Qin Lan, behind Chen Kun, slowly descending from the vent.

Zhou Dongyu raised his binoculars to face Qin Lan, and immediately turned to look at Luo Chen: "That's not the real her—"

But it was too late, Luo Chen missed the opportunity in a daze.

"Good."

Just as Chen Kun turned around and looked behind him, a gunshot sounded, and Qin Lan raised the gun and hit him in the chest.

Chen Kun fell to the ground covering his chest.

"boom!"

There was another gunshot, and Luo Chen's sniper rifle fired a bullet and hit Qin Lan.

Qin Lan fell to the ground.

Although the culprit was killed, Operation Zhinian undoubtedly failed.

The target task, Chen Kun, fell before the last step.

Sighs and noises once again erupted in the cinema hall.

There is no way to describe this movie with twists and turns.

No one can guess the next step of the plot.

Although Zhou Junpeng's rational half of his brain told him that the movie would definitely have a solution and would definitely turn around, he still couldn't stop his deep annoyance.

When Pan Yueming heard the gunshot, he was taken aback for a moment. He wanted to grope forward, but suddenly he grabbed his abdomen.

In super slow motion, the van began to fall down, but it was still a considerable distance above the river...

When Bai Yu approached, Pan Yueming looked up at him with dying eyes.

Amid the depression both on-screen and off-screen, Bai Yu took off the defibrillator from the wall and untied Chen Kun's clothes——

"useless……"

Bai Yu stubbornly shocked Chen Kun's chest...

Luo Chen shook his head: "Even if you revive his body, his consciousness is still trapped there, and it's all over."

Bai Yu listened to his pulse for a while, then looked up at Luo Chen: "So, that's it? We've reached the point where we're about to hit the door... just failed like this?"

The sound of the music went from calm to passionate.

"There is another way. Let's follow him to the next floor."

Luo Chen and Bai Yu turned their heads to look at Zhou Dongyu who was unwilling to admit defeat.

Bai Yu shook his head: "We don't have any time left."

"It's enough time to get to the floor below, we'll get to him quickly, and once you hear the music, you revive him with the pacemaker - we'll do a recoil shot for him down there.

Then let him go behind the door, and once the music stops, you blow up the hospital, and we all ride the recoil, through our respective dream layers, and back up. "

"...Dreams only have three floors at most... Going down is the Lost Domain."

Luo Chen met the two people's eyes, and said slowly: "Me and... She and I explored in this way last time, we wanted to explore the limit of dreams within dreams, but ended up entering the Lost Realm below the third floor.

Once we enter it, we can still remember that it is a dream at the very beginning, but...but soon, we will get lost in it, forget the reality, forget where we came from, and sink here forever. "

Zhou Dongyu's expression was still firm: "But you have come out of the lost domain before, haven't you? You also took your wife with you. Since you can get out of the first time, you can get out of the second time. I believe in you, and we can get out of it." Find him soon, don't last long, don't let us get lost in it.

and……"

Zhou Dongyu pointed to Pan Yueming, who was leaning against the wall and had no breath: "He is dead. According to you, he should also fall into a lost domain, right? Don't we save them both?"

Good guy, it really can go to a deeper level, and there is a scene of being lost.

Zhou Junpeng looked at the big screen excitedly, waiting for the final climax of the movie.
