The moment he lost his eyes, the world in front of Chen Chen did not fall into eternal darkness. Instead, he saw more things that could not be observed with the naked eye!
Immediately, with this new vision, he triggered the subspace tide and easily strangled Zhao Shanhe on the spot!
However, after the strangulation, he saw a cloud of blood mist emerging from the place where Zhao Shanhe died. In the blood mist, Zhao Shanhe's only remaining eye was wrapped in it, and then a hoarse roar came from the blood mist:
"You cheated, you can't do this without dying, you cheated!"
Seeing this somewhat familiar scene, Chen Chen suddenly sneered. He took action again, as if he wanted to continue attacking, but the blood mist swished out of the gap leading to reality and completely escaped from the subspace.
Watching the other party flee, Chen Chen did not chase him. He just stared at the other party with two bloody eyes, showing a thoughtful expression.
"Zhao Shanhe was actually killed by me..."
Chen Chen murmured in a low voice. By this time, he had sorted out everything.
It turned out that Zhao Shanhe had already thought of a way out for himself. After he was hit by the antimeme left by Wang Xi, he could only temporarily suppress it with the principles of civilization. Under the suppression of the black stone slab, the antimeme "I "I saw you" was really suppressed and unable to explode, but Zhao Shanhe could only bear the pain day by day.
So, in order to lift the antimemetic curse, he finally decided to come to the "Black Hole Surface" plane to search for clues. However, before he came, he deliberately left four horror movies in the plane key -
"The Grudge", "Death is Coming", "Ghost Call", "Midnight Ring".
This is the movie with the most vicious memetic effect Zhao Shanhe has ever known, in order to kill the next person who gets the key to the plane.
He instilled these four movies in the plane key not only to harm others, but also to benefit himself, because he had already thought of a way out. If he died there after entering the "Black Hole Surface" plane, He will use the power of civilization principles to fuse with the antimeme, then return to reality and attach to the plane key!
When the next person who gets the key to the plane opens the USB flash drive, he will naturally click on four movies, and then be easily killed by the horrific memes in it!
At that time, I will be qualified to seize the key to the plane again...
But what he didn't expect was that after he came to the "Black Hole Surface" plane, he unexpectedly met Chen Chen. When he learned Chen Chen's identity, he completely understood that he would really die in this adventure. !
However, Chen Chen had already recognized him at that time, so in order to paralyze Zhao Shanhe, Chen Chen lied that he had also been hit by an antimeme. This information immediately cheered up Zhao Shanhe and made him want to make a comeback.
Because he knew that the antimeme in Chen Chen might be him, which meant that he still had room for a comeback!
So he executed the entire plan without hesitation, but while executing the plan, he still had a thought in his heart, which was to kill Chen Chen in the subspace and directly change history!
Hence, the scene where Chen Chen was betrayed just now happened.
After his body was destroyed, Zhao Shanhe immediately escaped back to reality with the help of antimemetics, but at this time he was extremely weak. After attaching himself to the plane key, he fell into a deep sleep.
Then, it was not until Chen Chen got the USB flash drive eighteen years later that he woke up under a certain trigger...
Then everything happened naturally.
As for Chen Chen's practice of gouging out his own eyes, this was not the first time he had done it.
Chen Chen had already done this when he was trapped in the dream world. After all, gouging out his eyes was the biggest clue in the plot of "The Surface of the Black Hole". In the movie, Dr. Will, who was seduced by darkness and became a demon, was gouging out his eyes. Behind the eyes I said this -
"The world I will go to does not need eyes..."
In other words, there is no need for organs like eyes in subspace. Only by digging out your eyes can you see the truth of the subspace world!
It's just that Zhao Shanhe is only a mortal after all. He didn't dare to gouge out his eyes and harm himself, so he could only use needle and thread to sew his eyes shut. But Chen Chen had nothing to be afraid of. His body was the body of a consciousness stealer. Gouge out his eyes. What kind of? Even if Zhao Shanhe's chest was cut open, there wouldn't be much damage at all. The only damage was that the laser sword burned some pieces of flesh.
Therefore, Zhao Shanhe could only lose his body in frustration and escape in the form of antimeme.
"I ended your consciousness with my own hands more than ten years ago, but more than ten years later, I want to kill you again. The multiverse is really magical..."
Chen Chen shook his head. He understood that when Zhao Shanhe escaped, he was probably expecting another comeback. Little did he know that what greeted him was that he was killed by him for the second time, and the next time, he didn't even escape consciously!
At this time, the severe pain in his eyes gradually subsided, and Chen Chen looked around with his empty eyes like a ghost, thoroughly observing this unknown world for the first time.
As far as the eye can see, there is endless gray, and countless bizarre and indescribable particles flicker in the mid-air, but those are not stars.
This is not the solar system, not even the Milky Way, and does not belong to any corner of the universe. At the same time, there is no air, no light, space is chaotic, and even time is distorted.
The entire space is in darkness and chaos, with countless chaos and distortions blooming in every corner of the space. From time to time, a gray bubble can be seen bulging above the head, and then explodes instantly, causing countless strange phenomena that are simply impossible to understand and observe.
This space was filled with all kinds of unprecedented radio signals and radiation, and the endless weird fluctuations were faintly eroding his consciousness. His reason was slowly disappearing in this gray fog at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This is the price of entering subspace and seeing the true price, Chen Chen thought thoughtfully. No wonder the crew of the New Territory became desperate and killed each other after entering.
Chen Chen stood in the void and looked around, then fixed his gaze on the location where Zhao Shanhe was killed. There, a pool of broken black slate fragments was suspended in mid-air, constantly repelling the gray mist of the subspace.
Seeing this, Chen Chen used one hand to summon the debris.
This black stone slab is indeed magical. Even if it is broken into waste, it can still resist the erosion of subspace and automatically fight against subspace.
The moment he touched the black slate, a phantom of nothingness suddenly appeared in Chen Chen's mind—
On a desolate primitive planet, a group of apes are developing their lives in the form of a tribe. The apes are still in the most primitive period of ignorance, eating hair and drinking blood, and are not even at the top of the food chain.
However, one day, a black stone slab slowly rose from the soil and suspended in the territory of this group of apes.
Suddenly, when the group of apes saw it, it was as if they had seen a miracle. All the tribes gathered together and bowed before the black stone slab to worship.
The next moment, an invisible wave erupted from the black stone slab. This wave woke up the group of apes. The apes fled in all directions after being frightened, but they did not know that the seeds of civilization had been introduced into their consciousness through this wave. at.
Soon, this group of apes began to learn to use tools, began to learn to drill wood to make fire, and began to learn to slash and burn...
Day after day, this group of apes gradually transformed from walking on four limbs to walking on two limbs. Their hands were freed and they could better use various tools. The dawn of civilization took root in them...
Endless phantoms appeared in Chen Chen's mind. He seemed to have seen the period of the rise of mankind, watching apes gradually evolve into ape-men, and then gradually transform into humans, spreading to every corner of the planet like a virus.
Eventually, mankind entered the space age, and only then did the phantom completely end, because this represents the completion of the first stage of human civilization.
"It turns out that this is the principle of civilization..."
After the phantom in his mind completely disappeared, Chen Chen thoughtfully put away the fragments of civilization, and then he took one last look at this endless subspace.
In fact, he still has many mysteries to answer, such as why Professor Wang Xi is here, what are those weird robots covered in human skin, and what lies deep in the subspace...
There are endless mysteries in the depths of subspace, but these mysteries are not what Chen Chen is qualified to explore.
Because the person who is qualified will never be Chen Chen as an individual, but the engineering work of the entire human race, just like the evolution of civilization can never be achieved by individual efforts.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen only felt that the erosion of subspace on him was getting more and more serious. He no longer hesitated, turned around and quickly got in through the passage he came from...
It was that half-dream and half-awake feeling again. When Chen Chen regained consciousness, he had left subspace and returned to the countercurrent at the junction of subspace and reality. However, even here Chen Chen could still feel the erosion of the subspace tide, so He no longer stayed, but flew directly towards the outside world.
However, just when he was about to leave the subspace countercurrent range, he suddenly heard a low and strange buzzing sound coming from behind him.
Chen Chen frowned. He silently turned around, only to see that the crashed plane shattered, endless gray fog rolled, and the gap connecting to the subspace was rapidly expanding!
In the space gap that is constantly being torn apart, an indescribable, indescribable twisted thing is attacking with a momentum that breaks through everything!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
A sound that could shake the soul came, and Chen Chen felt an endless sense of crisis emerging, almost completely overwhelming his soul!
In Chen Chen's feeling, the aura exuded by the unknown existence hitting the rift in space was actually thousands of times more powerful than the consciousness stealers Chen Chen had ever seen!
At this moment, Chen Chen flew towards the outside world extremely crazily, and instantly got rid of the subspace countercurrent. When leaving the subspace, Chen Chen's eyes suddenly went dark and turned into darkness again.
This is because the rules of the universe have changed.
In subspace, human vision is a burden. On the contrary, it is easier for blind people to see the essence of that world, while the opposite is true in the real world.
Until this moment, Chen Chen was able to look behind him at the launch site with lingering fear, but he saw that the black mist originally trapped by the reality anchor began to surge violently, and there seemed to be countless evil ghosts struggling and dancing in it!
"escape!"
This was the only thought left in Chen Chen's mind. He rushed to the reality anchor without thinking, put away the instrument, and then went to X-112's hiding place to put away X-112's storage. Those black knights ignored them and fled straight towards Hawaii!
"Your Excellency, Commander?"
X-112's confused voice came from the headset, "Didn't you go in with Zhao Shanhe? Why did you come out alone? And where are we going now?"
"go home."
Chen Chen squeezed out two words through his teeth, and then said in a hoarse voice, "I can't see anything now, I can only fly with my field power. If you get to Miami, remember to remind me..."
"Your eyes..."
It was only then that X-112 discovered that Chen Chen had lost his eyes. She understood what must have happened in the black mist, but she did not interfere at this time and just acted as Chen Chen's navigation faithfully.
In the end, after Chen Chen poured out his energy for free, it only took Chen Chen more than half an hour to arrive in Miami. Then he got back into the channel opened by the USB flash drive without thinking and returned to reality.
It wasn't until he came back that Chen Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He directly pulled out the USB flash drive from the computer and interrupted the connection between the two.
"call!"
Beside him, two black knights had already walked over with a stretcher, helped Chen Chen onto the stretcher, and began to treat the wounds on his chest and eyes.
At this time, the chest injury was almost healed. You must know that at that time, most of Chen Chen's chest was cut open by the laser sword. The ultra-high temperature vaporized most of the muscles in Chen Chen's chest. If he were a mortal, he would probably die on the spot. That's it. Having a body makes it easier to survive.
Two white eyeballs also began to grow in Chen Chen's eye sockets. This was because Chen Chen had actively suppressed the growth of the eyeballs in the subspace before. If it had not been suppressed at that time, I am afraid that the injuries to his eyes would have already recovered.
However, a large number of injuries still made Chen Chen's body much weaker. However, the black knight will naturally take care of these, and Chen Chen only needs to cultivate himself.
"Gather the pieces together."
Suddenly, Chen Chen took out the fragments of the black slate and handed them to the black knight on the side. At the same time, he said, "Remember, this thing is very important. Don't lose even a little bit of powder."
"clear."
X-112 replied, "However, there are still two miniature reality anchors left in the "Black Hole Surface" plane. Wouldn't it be a pity if we don't recover them?"
"Recycle?"
Chen Chen shook his head, "It can't be recovered anymore. That plane is dead. Even if the mysterious civilization from the "Doom" plane comes, it can't save it... That plane is already dead."
After hearing Chen Chen's words, X-112 immediately stopped talking.
"Subspace is actually more terrifying than I imagined..."
Chen Chen secretly sighed, but then frowned. When he entered the subspace and even fought with Zhao Shanhe, everything was fine. On the contrary, after he left, a great terror that destroyed the world came immediately. All of this What a coincidence.
Could it be that…
Professor Wang Xi's face suddenly flashed through Chen Chen's mind. As for whether all this was Professor Wang Xi's handiwork, and what his purpose was, Chen Chen didn't know...
