This Game Is Too Realistic

Chapter 508 Return to Ruins, Return to Zero (1/2)

"...You have been frozen for too long, and your hematopoietic function has not fully recovered. A blood transfusion may be a little difficult for you."

Outside of Vault 0.

In a tent at the base, a doctor in a white coat looked at Yi Hai lying on the hospital bed and said.

"No, I feel very weak," Yi Hai declined the doctor's request. He looked at his brother standing beside the hospital bed with tired eyes and said in a gentle voice, "Can you let me rest for a while?"

Looking at his brother lying on the hospital bed with concern, Yi Chuan nodded.

"...you should take a rest."

Although there were many things he wanted to say to his brother, considering that he had just been rescued from the hibernation capsule, what he needed most at the moment was rest.

Yi Chuan stood up from his seat and walked towards the door.

However, just when he reached out to lift the door curtain, it was Qia Tuo who met Chu Guang who was walking from outside.

"Chu Guang?" Yi Chuan looked at him in surprise, thinking he was here to see him, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

Looking at the representative of the Silver Wing Group, Chu Guangyou smiled and said.

"There are some things I want to talk to your brother about. Can you take up a little of his time?"

Seeing that Chu Guang was not looking for him, Yi Chuan was slightly stunned. After listening to his request, a troubled expression appeared on his face.

"But he needs to rest now—"

Before Yi Chuan could finish speaking, a voice from behind interrupted him.

"It's okay, let Mr. Chu Guang come in."

Yi Chuan immediately turned around and glanced at his brother with a strange expression, who just said he was going to rest, but in the end he didn't say anything and let the door open.

Chu Guang gave him a look of thanks.

"Thank you. I'll leave this place for you. You can go and do your work first... Don't worry, I won't disturb your brother for too long."

Yichuan nodded.

"Okay...then you guys talk first."

"Um."

Chu Guang nodded, borrowed it from Yi Chuan, walked straight to the hospital bed, took an iron chair and sat on it.

Looking at the blue armor on his body, Yi Hai smiled weakly and said while lying on the hospital bed.

"You're still the same, always wearing this armor."

Chu Guang smiled faintly.

"After all, this is a wasteland, and any accident is possible... I'm honored that I left such a deep impression on you."

"Of course, it's a special place, different from anywhere I've been, not just you, but you guys... a lot of people have left a deep impression on me and my teammates."

The pale face was full of weakness, but the man on the hospital bed still managed a friendly smile.

"It's a pity that we were on a mission at the time and we couldn't stay too long. Otherwise, I really wish I could stay there for a little longer... Let's see how many delicacies you have hidden in the shelter."

Hearing him talk about their common memories, Chu Guang smiled, suddenly sighed softly, and said with some sadness.

"That night I said... when you recover a little, we can sit together and talk about what happened to us after you left."

"I'm really curious...what exactly happened to you, that you have such a big change in just six months." Yi Hai's voice also had a hint of emotion, and his eyes seemed to be lost in memories.

Chu Guang didn't speak, just stared at him silently for a while.

Those dark pupils made it difficult to see what he was thinking. Yi Hai looked at Chu Guang with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

"Is there something on my face?"

"No," Chu Guang shook his head, suddenly put away the sharpness in his eyes, and continued in a gentle tone, "Let's talk about... what happened before we met you."

Yi Hai said nothing and waited quietly for him to continue.

Chu Guang thought for a moment and continued.

"A long time ago, I had a long, long dream. In the dream... I was killed by wastelanders, mutants, and tricked to death by my most trusted residents. In the most desperate situation... At this juncture, I touched the edge of the dream again and again. However, every time I was about to pass through the fog, I would wake up from the dream again. Sometimes I couldn't help but wonder if this would be the next cycle. the beginning of.”

Yi Hai was stunned for a moment, seeing that his expression didn't look like he was joking. After a while, he sighed softly and followed his words.

"That's a really bad memory."

"Yes." Chu Guang nodded, "I rarely mention the specific content of dreams to people, even the people I trust most."

After a pause, he continued.

"Although this statement may sound strange, it surprised even me... I don't hate the people I saw in the dream."

An expression of laughter appeared on Yi Hai's face, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice as if he was smiling.

"This does sound strange...dreams and reality are two different things after all. Because I hate people in reality after having nightmares, normal people should not be like this."

Chu Guang also smiled and said.

"Really? Let alone dreams and reality, even people in reality are different. Some wastelanders are bad-tempered, but not all wastelanders are like that. I always tell myself to be cautious I must use the power in my hands, including the permission given to me by the shelter, let go of the arrogance and prejudice of civilized people, treat everyone as the same as possible, and use rules to restrain others. Only in this way can we unite as many people as possible. "

"Whether they are residents in the shelter or survivors outside the shelter, they all have the right to live in this world. They are not born to serve whom, and whose desires and ambitions should be satisfied first. Or become someone's slave... Do you think I did the right thing?"

Yi Hai was silent for a while and sighed sincerely.

"You are an excellent manager. No wonder you can keep your shelter in order."

This sentence sounded like a heartfelt compliment, and in fact it was so. However, to Chu Guang's ears, it had a different meaning.

Especially when he has noticed something.

This compliment was even more sarcastic.

Chu Guang didn't intend to continue acting with him anymore. He looked directly into the eyes that concealed hypocrisy behind weakness, and said in a very soft voice.

"I wasn't so proficient in my business from the beginning. I just gradually learned a little bit after spending time with the survivors. So I actually don't understand it. It's just like being a slave trader... They can still use the environment. Shiran and Wuwu defended themselves. But as the heirs of civilization, why do you want to join in those people? Haven't the People's League given you enough?"

"Collaborating with... those people?" Yi Hai was stunned for a moment, and his expression gradually became serious, "What do you mean? You mean... there are moles and mutants in the company?!"

This guy was still playing dumb until the end.

Chu Guang admitted.

He actually pretends to be quite similar.

If this guy had been so careful from the beginning, or if he hadn't made his pride so obvious, I might have been fooled by him.

After all, when facing the wounded, people will instinctively treat them tolerantly, rather than harshly criticizing their representatives. Even if they sometimes find inconsistencies in the transcripts, they will tolerantly interpret them as post-traumatic injuries. Normal reaction.

However——

Some things can be explained by memory confusion, and some things cannot.

People may mistake the order of events and confuse the key people in the event due to confusion in memory, but it is impossible to predict things that have not happened for no reason.

At the same time, Xiaoqi's voice came from his ears, reporting to him what his little players had discovered in Vault 0.

Even if the walls of the shelter can block electromagnetic waves, they cannot block the connection established on the "morphogenetic field".

"Stop pretending... the real Yi Hai died in that shelter."

Seeing Chu Guang's explanation, the man lying on the hospital bed finally stopped acting.

He completely tore off the mask of weakness, his pale face was distorted by emotional fluctuations, and a gurgling laughter came from his dry mouth.

It looked like a mad corpse.

Chu Guang looked at him quietly.

He knew that this guy must have been holding back his laughter for a long time. Maybe he had been holding back his laughter from the moment he woke up.

It seems that I have laughed enough.

The distorted face returned to normal. The man let out a long breath and looked at Chu Guang with a happy expression.

"Huh...it's really hard not to laugh, you know? The stupid way you guys are busy around me is really funny, haha!"

After a pause, he looked curiously at the man in power armor in front of him.

"Chu Guang, right... I'm still a little confused, how did you find out? Those guys shouldn't have come out of the shelter yet, right?"

Chu Guang said in a quiet voice.

"Although you acted very similar, even your surprise when you saw me, your feelings for your brother, your touch when you saw the rescuer... all of them were performed, but you have too much information. ”

"You know everything about the Vaillants, the mutants, the Enlightenment, and the final betrayal of the Enlightenment."

"It's strange, isn't it? Just like you participated in, including the conflict with Velant and the mutants, including the cooperation with the Enlightenment and the ultimate betrayal by the latter... In the end, you returned to the world safely. The starting point of 㪏.”

"Smart," the man looked at Chu Guang with admiration, "I appreciate you more and more... Yes, I am a member of the Enlightenment Society."

"But I still don't understand a little bit," Chu Guang stared at him, with a hint of curiosity in his voice, "How did you disguise yourself as Yi Hai?"

"Ah...is this difficult?" The man had a happy smile on his face, and his reaction was beyond Chu Guang's expectations.

He didn't hide anything and confessed straightforwardly.

"Have you ever heard of a mind interference device?"

Chu Guang nodded.

"I've heard that some people like you have the same technology, but if I remember correctly... the higher the mind, the more specific the information it can receive, but the relative impact is smaller. The lower the mind, the more information it can receive. The less information you receive, the greater the impact.”

This technology first originated in the colonies. It was inspired by the "unified consciousness" of alien life forms and was developed as a substitute for the "infrasonic fence" technology. It was later used by an unscrupulous company to visit the ecological park. Customers sold products worth less than a bottle of mineral water at sky-high prices, and the result almost overturned the advertising industry.

The mind interferometer can control some immature alien species, but for humans with mature minds, the impact it can have is just to push them when they have the idea of ​​"buying it", let alone the advanced version. dominated by the spirit.

"The resonance theory is indeed true," the man continued with a smile. "Theoretically, it is impossible to control higher life forms through the resonance theory. The mental complexity of higher life forms is tens of thousands of times that of lower creatures. But there are not exceptions to this.”

Chu Guang stared at him for a while, and a trace of surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"...Clone?"

"That's right, especially the kind with a mind as pure as a blank sheet of paper." The man nodded approvingly, "Thanks to those Weirant people, I now have at least a thousand instant clones on my hands. I just need to pick one of the same height. , it’s enough to give him plastic surgery and crystal implant surgery.”

"As for the problem of memory, it is easier to solve. Before this guy is cool, just put his consciousness into the virtual space and slowly interrogate him. Through imaginary dreams and subconscious, there are always ways to find out what we don't know. The content is squeezed out.”

When he said this, he paused deliberately and slowed down his speech.

"But having said that, I have to praise you. Your shelter really left a deep impression on this guy... Among the 1,700 dreams, at least 320 were scenes about you. Maybe he My last wish before I die is to visit your place again, haha.”

Not irritated by his provocation, Chu Guang took a deep breath and continued to ask.

"So the crew of the Pioneer are all dead?"

The man smiled and said, "How could it be? If I hadn't let one of you go on purpose, would you have come all the way here?"

"From the moment the Pioneer entered this area, all of you...whether you are in it or outside it, you are all under my calculations."

"It seems that you are satisfied with your plan." Chu Guang raised his chin slightly and looked down at the ugly and twisted personality.

It's like looking down at a maggot.

But the man didn't care about it. Instead, he seemed to get pleasure from the look in his eyes, and nodded happily to admit it.

"That was the day. As I expected, only companies and legions would come here. Now, unexpectedly, there is an additional academy... It couldn't be more perfect!"

Suddenly thinking of something, he stopped talking again.

"Ah, maybe four, but unfortunately, I have no interest in you. A three-digit shelter. In our place, there are many managers of two-digit shelters."

Chu Guang stared at him.

"Is the Enlightenment going to happen?"

"That's right," the man said simply, "the residents who can be selected as shelters are without exception the elites of the People's Federation society, or at least the descendants of the elites. This world should be controlled by us... But... Unfortunately, this piece of cake is now covered with cockroaches. We plan to clean up those cockroaches before we get to this piece of cake.”

When he said this, he suddenly changed his topic, rolled his eyes, and stared at Chu Guang.

"But having said that, although I am not interested in your shelter, I am quite interested in you personally. According to the rules, you manage a three-digit shelter. Even if you join us, you have to start as a disciple. But I can make an exception and make you an elder."

Chu Guang chuckled.

"Your level classification is quite interesting. I use the shelter number to rank the seats."

The man said matter-of-factly.

"That's for sure. The ranking of shelters represents the budget priority. The higher the ranking, the higher the social status before the war."

The first half of his sentence is indeed true, but the second half is obviously just his own understanding, which is at least different from the information Chu Guang himself learned.

"Then what's your number?"

"Me?" The man was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "I am 0."

"By the way, I haven't told you my name yet...but forget it, the name is just a code name, and it doesn't matter where it comes from."

After a pause, he looked at Chu Guang happily.

"You can be like my disciples."

"Call me Guixu!"

The smile on that face was like a devil.

He was lying here, watching people from the company, the legion, and the academy, rushing around in the maze he had set up by himself.

And his true body should be somewhere not too far from here.

The only thing Chu Guang can be sure of now is that the technology he uses is not the same morphological field as that of Vault 404, but is based on the resonance theory originated in 2111. The transmission of this information will be affected by interfering elements.

Otherwise, he should know everything about what is going on underground.

"But I heard that Vault 0 is not over yet."

"It means that you, like the cuties on the Pioneer, know nothing about the Torch Project."

Guixu continued nonchalantly.

"But this is normal. Vault Zero has always existed outside of the sequence... It is not a shelter that actually exists, but a building composed of multiple components. Each of its components All are carefully designed to complete the final plan - to clear the planet of organisms outside the sanctuary and completely restart the world before the legacy is consumed. "

When he said this, Guixu smiled.

"The underground shelter is just one of many facilities. We originally came here just to pick up one thing, but unfortunately we couldn't find the key to get in. Thanks to the cuties on the Pioneer for helping us."

"You know what? Seeing how understanding they are, I thought they knew what they were looking for. I didn't expect that they had never even heard of the Torch Project. It was just a legend that could end the wasteland. It's really embarrassing. They found this place with a lot of information... Hahaha, what a pity."

Smiling and shaking his head, he continued.

"I came here to try to get them to join the group, and the descendants of Vault 6 are not the only ones who can do it. For this reason, I talked a lot of nonsense to them, just like now."

"And after listening to my explanation, the guy named Lu Yang not only stupidly rejected me, but also betrayed me treacherously and secretly, and threw the mother marker hidden on the Pioneer in, which made me unable to do anything. The young men are locked inside."

When he said this, he looked up at the clock on the wall, and the smile on his face became even happier.

"Thank you for chatting with me for so long. The thundercloud storm should have arrived in this area, and it should have started thundering outside... From now on, no news can get out from here. But don't worry, no matter it is the crew of the Pioneer , or those from Weiland or the college, they will all go home safely... and we will say hello to your families. "

At this moment, the guy who called himself Guixu finally confessed all his plans.

He not only wants something hidden in the underground shelter, he also plans to use this opportunity to replace everyone here!

Just like he usurped Yi Hai's identity.

As long as they control everyone here and squeeze their memories through virtual reality equipment, they can use the Legion's cloning, plastic surgery and mind interference technology to disguise those who are dead, and at the same time arrange for disciples to serve as servants or Other identities live next to the puppet, thereby completely infiltrating the legion, enterprise, and college.

Chu Guang had to admit that this guy and his enlightenment meeting were really extraordinary.

At the same time, three fallen empires declared war, plus a new alliance.

This kind of behavior is usually called getting tired of living.

"No wonder you told me all your love without any worries." Chu Guang said with emotion as he looked at the guy lying on the bed.

Guixu smiled faintly.

"Yes, your only chance to survive is to join us. To be honest, if you don't get the cooperation of someone else, seizing the permission of the administrator is a thankless task, not to mention we have no interest in getting the permission from the disciples. Take their power from your hands. As long as you cooperate with our work, you and your residents will have the power to survive in the New Territories."

"Has my status been downgraded from an elder to a disciple? But it's a pity that I have no interest in the new world you talk about."

Chu Guang chuckled.

While speaking, he had closed the visor of his helmet.

"If you want my life, then come and try."

As if he expected his answer, the man lying on the bed just said hello indifferently.

"Then give it a try."

The thundercloud storm has formed.

In this special climate environment, the aircraft cannot take off at all, and the signal transmission distance is also weakened to the extreme.

In order to prevent the shield energy from being wasted for no reason, the two airships hovering above began to descend.

At this moment, a harsh alarm bell suddenly sounded in the sky.

Chu Guang frowned slightly, and immediately pulled out the nitrogen-powered hammer from behind. The violent air flow spread instantly, flying the entire ceiling of the barracks out, and the debris in the barracks was also blown around.

"Do you want to kill me? It doesn't matter. Although it's a pity to be asked out of the special seat, I will watch you from other places." Guixu chuckled, looked at the murderous Chu Guang, and continued, " But before that, I suggest you keep an eye on the top of your head.”

There is no need for him to remind me at all.

Chu Guangzheng looked up at the sky.

The two airships floating directly above the camp were seen sinking at an uncontrollable speed. The propellers on both sides were rotating rapidly, but the limited thrust could not support the heavy bodies.

It wasn't just Heart of Steel that fell.

There is also the judge not far away!

Chu Guang narrowed his eyes slightly.

Phase energy rectifier!

There is only one possibility to make the airship's deflector shield and anti-gravity system fail at the same time.

At this time, Yi Chuan, who had left the camp earlier, rushed in from outside in a hurry.

"The airship is falling?! What happened--"

His words suddenly stopped.

Looking at Chu Guang holding the war hammer, looking at the ceiling that was blown away, and looking at his brother lying on the hospital bed, Yi Chuan's face was filled with shock and bewilderment.

The smile on the man's face in the hospital bed suddenly gave him a strange feeling, as if something had gotten under his brother's skin.

not only that.

That indifferent smile made him feel the coldness that penetrated into his bones.

Without even looking at Yi Chuan who was standing at the door of the barracks, Guixu looked at Chu Guang with a smile and said in a casual tone.

"Under the instruction of the enterprise, the Alliance suddenly opened fire, and Captain Adria and the Triumph City requested reinforcements... What do you think of this plot?"

Chu Guang replied expressionlessly.

"Not very good."

"Indeed, I forgot about the academy," the man nodded thoughtfully, "Let me think about it again."

"Brother..." Yi Chuan looked at him blankly and wanted to take a step forward, but a big steel-covered hand fell on his shoulder.

"That's not your brother lying there."

Pulling Yi Chuan, who wanted to move forward, Chu Guang did not look at the falling airship, but looked sharply outside the camp.

There are at least a thousand clones obtained by this guy...

Maybe even more.

Through spiritual connection, it is conducted by Yuan Yiyang, a disciple of the Enlightenment Society... This sounds like a very strong sense of déjà vu.

"Aren't you going to run?" The man looked curiously at Chu Guang, who was standing there motionless, and reminded him kindly, "If you don't run, it will be too late."

"run?"

Chu Guang raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled.

"Why should I run?"

Trying to kill him with one phaser shot.

That would be too much to underestimate him...
