The experience of collapse, the beginning of thousands of people

On the side of the world snake, it swallowed a large part of the cake of the original anti-entropy radicals, and reached a cooperation with the conservatives.

Destiny... Otto noticed Kiana's potential in this battle, and was very satisfied with his work.

Then there is the mercenary who appeared mysteriously. It can only be found that he was a member of the killer organization of the Russian military a long time ago, and there is no news about the others in the past few years.

And Lao Yang......

He fell asleep inexplicably that night, and even dreamed about the memories of when he lived with Joyce in his sleep.

By the time he woke up, everything had settled down.

Chapter 42: The Second Immersive Simulation

Cheng Xing sat on the sofa at home, looked at Gray Snake sitting in front of him, and asked, "So is there a new mission? I just came back with your front foot, and you gave me a mission with your back foot?"

"The task this time is more troublesome. My news network told me that some news about Jiuyou appeared on the Shenzhou side. You are the only one who is free on the organization side."

"Jiuyou..."

Cheng Xing looked thoughtful.

"It's the place where Ji Xuanyuan sealed Chi You in the mythology. Although the information I got from my news network is relatively vague, it does prove some traces of Jiuyou's existence, so I plan to send you to Shenzhou to assist in the investigation."

"So what about the rest of the organization?"

"Recently, Raven was a little stimulated by the money you made, so she took on some troublesome jobs and went out to make money. Jackal didn't know who moved her research records and The accuracy of the instruments is still being reorganized. And I have to deal with a large amount of wealth and information left by the anti-entropy radicals. The rest of the people are not as reliable as you. So, on the basis of the original remuneration , I will give you twice as compensation."

"And this matter is not particularly urgent. Even if you treat it as a vacation and travel outside for half a year, we won't have any complaints."

Cheng Xing's eyes lit up when he heard that this job was actually a paid vacation. He knew the follow-up plot, and Jiuyou would definitely be solved by Teresa and the others without anti-entropy troubles. Just fish in troubled waters.

Anyway, when the time comes, it will happen naturally, and when something happens, I can make a lot of money by reporting it.

Then it is indeed a paid trip!

"Okay then, I'll take this job, when are you leaving?"

"Whatever you want, anyway, just report to me when you get there."

Gray Snake didn't seem to care about the completion of this task at all, and Cheng Xing even decided when to go, anyway, he left after explaining.

Cheng Xing was still thinking about going to Bronya's side while traveling, and then he heard a voice in his mind.

"The charging is complete, and the simulation can start at any time."

"Okay, so this time it's better to be an immersive simulation? Or is it better not to be immersive?"

Cheng Xing was a little entangled in his heart. He was worried that after turning on the immersive simulation again, he would have ambiguous relationships with some people again, but it is true that the immersive simulation is better if he wants to get good rewards... not right Ah, the strongest abilities I have now are all obtained in exchange for non-immersive simulations.

Instead, the rewards for immersive simulations aren't great.

"The system, you are not lying to me, are you? You said that immersive simulation is better, but non-immersive simulation brings higher rewards instead."

"The system will not comment."

"Let me think about it..." Cheng Xing said after thinking for a long time, "It's still immersive."

"Immersive simulation is in progress, the world is being selected... the tree of imaginary numbers, the time point is selected... three years before the second collapse. The role is being selected... the experimenters in the Babylonian laboratory."

"It was detected that the Honkai God was watching at this time point, and it began to freeze... Encountering strong resistance from the other party, taking physical measures... The other party has fallen into a deep sleep."

"The simulation begins."

"The weather outside is still as cold as ever. I really don't know when we will see this snow-white hell."

A young man in a white coat was standing in front of the window looking out, the world covered in ice and snow sighed.

"Cheng Xing, don't lament this. What we are doing now is for the future of mankind, and if you really want to see other scenery, why not go to VR to experience virtual reality?"

On the side, another man in the same attire said to his companion.

"Jerak, virtual things give people an unreal feeling after all, which can't compare to the touch of real sunlight shining on human skin. And the fate of so-called human beings rests on us who use children as experimental products In the hands of a mad scientist, it is too pathetic."

Cheng Xing's tone was full of ridicule.

Jerak knew at this that his companion's pity had flared up again, but he felt the same way himself.

But over the years, he has also become used to numbness.

"No way, the reality is so cruel. If they don't sacrifice, more people will die. At least the experimental results we got from here have really helped people outside to fight against Honkai, right? Cheng Xing We must give up that sense of pity, the sacrifice of those children is also out of helplessness."

"I know, I know, I shouldn't... I shouldn't be so sentimental... But, but whenever I stand by the instrument, stand by the operating table, I feel like a disgusting butcher Do you still remember the No. 131 test subject two days ago? I still remember the picture of him lying in front of the operating table and looking at me with those immature eyes. I still can't forget that when he was on the verge of death, he used fear and pain The eyes staring at me... I used to not smoke, because cigarettes would only make me feel addicted, but after working here for so long, I started smoking without knowing it."

Trembling, Cheng Xing took out a pack of cigarettes from his clothes, took out one and put it in his mouth.

Jerak also took out a cigarette from his pocket, then took out a lighter and lit it for the two of them.

Neither of them said anything, they just simply smoked and exhaled.

The leisure time between the two didn't take long when the radio above their heads rang.

"Mr. Cheng Xing and Mr. Gerak Farente, please go to Laboratory No. 23 to conduct experiments immediately."

Cheng Xing took a sharp puff of the cigarette, inhaling the last bit of the smell, then threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped his feet a few times and cursed: "Fuck it!"

"Cheng, this world is like this...Fake!"

When the two came to the laboratory, their originally slightly emotional expressions disappeared, as if they had turned into extremely cold machines.

And many people here have exactly the same expressions as them, everyone is concentrating on doing what they are doing, and calmly watching the howling beast who is constantly being injected with Honkai energy in the training tank child.

It was a girl who looked like she was only 9 years old.

What a fucking reality.

Chapter 43: First Encounter

Cheng Xing ran straight out of the laboratory, rushed into the toilet, and vomited into the sink.

He was retching crazily, as if seeing some terrible scene in the laboratory made his stomach twitch involuntarily, wanting to spit out all the contents inside.

Jerak came to Cheng Xing's back unhurriedly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You're still not used to it, this time it's not bad, it's just that your body is siliconized, it's not like before. deformities and mutations."

"Ouch! But a young child died in front of me, no matter what, it makes me feel sick."

Cheng Xing sat down on the ground collapsed, looking at his hands, in a blur, he seemed to see that they were covered with blood.

"Pick one."

Jerak took out a cigarette and put it in front of Cheng Xing, who immediately took it and stuffed the cigarette butt into his mouth, then took out the lighter and pressed it several times with trembling hands, but no flame appeared.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"

Cheng Xing slammed the lighter to the ground, and collapsed on the ground with a dejected expression, his hands tightly clutching his messy hair that he hadn't managed for several months.

"Cheng, we didn't participate in the experiment process, we were just the people responsible for the records. We didn't do it ourselves, we were just bystanders. Take it easy, take it easy."

Jerak patted Cheng Xing's back, he understood Cheng Xing's feelings very well, after all, that's how he came here back then.

It would be nice to see this kind of thing a lot, human beings are very adaptable, as long as it takes a few more months, I believe he will fully adapt to it, after all, it is normal for a newcomer not to adapt.

"The innocence of bystanders? It is indeed a good way to comfort yourself...Jerak, why did you join the Mandate of Heaven?"

"Back then, I was in the prime of my youth. Thinking about it, I didn't expect such a great organization to save the world secretly, so I joined directly with a headache, but I didn't expect to be sent here not long after I joined."

Gerak.He took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then took out a lighter for himself, and Cheng Xing lit the cigarette in his mouth.

Cheng Xing took a deep breath and inhaled all the substances in the cigarette into his lungs. The burning feeling was all there at this moment, giving him a feeling of relief.

It's hard to imagine myself as someone who just a few weeks ago was a bit sick to my stomach when I smelled smoke.

"Phew! At the beginning, I was similar to you, and I thought that this organization was shouldering the heavy responsibility of saving mankind... In fact, it is true, it is just sacrificing some people to protect more people."

Jerak patted Cheng Xing on the shoulder, then took out a travel certificate from his pocket and handed it over. Under Cheng Xing's puzzled eyes, he said: "Some small-scale collapses have occurred recently. , causing some orphans to appear in the village. Originally, I was one of the entourage, but now I give this opportunity to you. Although I can only see the same layer of snow, I can breathe the air outside the base at least. "

"...Are we sacrificing those orphans even if we go out to feel the fresh air?"

Cheng Xing tightly grasped the access certificate in his hand, making people wonder if he would crush this magnetic card?

"Okay boy, if you don't want to go out, then give it back to me, I still want to go out."

After hesitating for a moment, Cheng Xing put the magnetic card in his pocket, then looked at the 40-year-old European man beside him and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, the next time the cigarettes are distributed, it's enough for you to give me a part of your share."

Cheng Xing nodded in agreement, anyway, he can rub the guy next to him when he has no cigarettes.

"Okay, there will be a broadcast announcement when the convoy is leaving. When the time comes, you can report to the lobby and follow the trip. I have made an appointment with some old friends here, and I want to have a good drink today."

Gerak patted the young oriental guy on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement, then stood up and left.

Cheng Xing also got up from the ground after the cigarette was burnt out. Looking at himself in the mirror with a decadent look, messy hair and unshaven beard, he felt that he was very strange.

After waiting for an hour or two, the news that the convoy was about to leave rang out on the radio, and Cheng Xing also used the magnetic card to get into the convoy.

When the door was opened, Cheng Xing, who was sitting in the jeep, was looking at the snow scene outside. There was no wind and snow outside, and it was a rare sunny day. The light from the sun shining on the snow-capped world gave people a dazzling feeling.

Cheng Xing just stared blankly at the icy and snowy land without any beauty, looked at the pale world, and kept silent.

He didn't close his eyes until he felt the stinging pain in his eyes for a long time, and he collapsed on the armchair as if he had lost his spine.

One can see the decadence of his whole person at a glance.

The motorcade didn't know how long it had been driving, but it arrived at a village during Cheng Xing's drowsy time.

At this time, a large area of ​​buildings in that village had collapsed, and only a small number of people survived this small-scale collapse.

The previous Valkyrie team had already dealt with the Houkai beasts or dead warriors here, and the current convoy was only here to bring the surviving children or adults who were obviously resistant or adaptable to the Houkai into the laboratory.

For them, it is really better to die in the Houkai incident, at least they don't have to suffer from the torture of the experiment.

Cheng Xing, as an experimenter accompanying the team, was responsible for checking the physical condition of these rear experimental subjects. The first one he checked was a limp-looking purple-haired little girl with tears in her eyes.

"Son, tell me what's your name?"

Cheng Xing took a deep breath and tried to squeeze out a smile that he thought was gentle, trying to communicate with the child, but his appearance of an uncle who looked very salty shocked the child, and the poor girl burst into tears come out.

"Wow! There is a strange uncle here! Mom, where are you? Sirin is so scared! Mom!"

The surrounding entourage looked at Cheng Xing with strange eyes.

Cheng Xing immediately felt that his head was extremely big. After spending a lot of effort to comfort the crying girl, he took down a portable preliminary detection device from the accompanying convoy.

During the drawing of the girl's blood, the girl almost cried again.
