The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 788: A world of madness

Views:

This facility, once known as the Ring Tower of the North, has now mutated into a remote mountain launch site. There are sporadic battles going on all over the place. The situation is very chaotic. Hundreds of soldiers may be fighting for control of this place. Quan—although all of this was just a farce that started only an hour ago, it seemed as if they had been fighting for more than ten years. Hao Ren and Nolan tried their best to avoid the soldiers on the road, and tried their best to find a safe way to the outside world in this complex and huge building. There were several inevitable encounters in the middle, but fortunately, the opponents were ordinary People, and there are no people running around carrying rockets like Nolan, so it is relatively easy to solve.

As time went by, the sound of firefighting around seemed to weaken a little, Hao Ren muttered: "It seems that the regular army has almost completely occupied this place."

"There may be explosives underground in this facility, so it's not suitable to stay there for a long time," Nolan muttered, without slowing down at all, just slightly raised his short stick in his hand, "Thank you for your weapon, this thing is really good to use."

Although she couldn't master this weapon from the Aerym elves in a short period of time, the shield function of the short staff has helped her resist danger more than once: after all, even with human-limited fighting skills, her body is still Navigating this facility full of enemy soldiers is no easy task for a mortal.

Hao Ren nodded, and suddenly saw a bright light appearing in front of him: "It seems to be an exit over there!"

Nolan immediately slowed down cautiously: "Be careful in ambush."

She and Hao Ren stopped, but the data terminal ran over nonchalantly: "This machine goes to explore the road!" Hao Ren didn't catch the speed at that speed.

Nolan was stunned as he watched from behind: "This is the most agile patient with cerebral thrombosis I have ever seen..."

Hao Ren took two steps forward and grabbed the data terminal: "You're dying?!"

The terminal shook his head: "It's okay, this machine is already dead anyway, if you don't believe me touch it, it doesn't have a heartbeat yet, I guess it won't die even if someone opens a hole."

Nolan has seen Hao Ren and his "partner" with a cerebral thrombosis not healed more than once along the way, which challenged the three views of getting along. At this time, she had long been in the mood to inquire about the reason. She confirmed the situation of the exit. He waved to the two of them: "Come on, it's safe ahead."

A group of three finally broke away from this complicated and somewhat excessively huge facility. After getting out of a secret hole on the hillside, Hao Ren was startled by what he saw. I was dumbfounded for a long time and couldn't calm down.

He saw a large stretch of mountains and mountains spread out in front of him, layers upon layers with no end in sight, the sky was high and clear, and a clear blue sky made people almost feel dazzled, and the memory of Zhuomu before was still in his mind. The cloudy sky on the planet is covered with thick smoke and dust, and even the sun is hard to show. The clear sky in front of him makes him suddenly suspect that he is in a different world.

If there is any regrettable landscape among the clear sky mountains, it is the rare vegetation on the mountains. Only a few low and sparse shrubs and dwarf trees dotted the desolate stone slopes, but even so, the sight was still much more pleasing than the hopeless post-war wasteland before.

The data terminal looked back, and she saw that everyone came out of a cave on the hillside. The previous facility turned out to be a bunker hidden in the mountain, and even the passage in front of her was disguised as an ordinary cave. .

The terminal shook his head: "This body is really troublesome. If you want to look behind you, you have to twist your neck. Sometimes you have to twist your body if you don't twist your neck enough—I can't believe how you humans treat this poor-quality bearing between your head and shoulders as a Natural parts of the…”

Hao Ren rolled his eyes: "Take it easy, ravens are also humanoid."

"Do you think she really needs to see the world with her eyes. Cut."

Nolan looked suspiciously at the strange pair in front of him who seemed to be both mentally ill, and then walked to the side of the hillside: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, move to a safe place first. Follow me. There should be a means of transportation here."

Hao Ren followed Nolan curiously, and asked as he walked, "How do you know? Hasn't the world changed?"

He didn't finish his sentence. I saw a strange modified vehicle parked behind a rock in front. This vehicle has four huge wheels connected by multi-section crankshafts, and a body mounted on a complex suspension system. It looks completely Prepared for off-roading in harsh and complex environments, it is not so much a car as a spider robot with wheels. It's exactly the same as what Nolan said: there is a means of transportation here, and it's very convenient at first glance.

Nolan beckoned, signaling Hao Ren and the terminal to get on the car, then quickly climbed into the driver's seat, and began to grope for those complicated button switches and the steering system whose shape was very different from that of the earth vehicle. It seemed that she was also touching this thing for the first time, but after fumbling for a while. Then she knew how to start the big guy: with the sound of the engine running, the spider robot-like car lifted its body and drove down the gentler route on the hillside.

Nolan was free to answer Hao Ren's question at this time: "Of course it's from memory—a memory that came out of nowhere. However, I have a special constitution. As the price of being able to remember past experiences, my newborn memory is very vague. , every time it takes several days to piece together a rough idea, before that I didn't even know what my new identity is. Is your situation different?"

Nolan turned his head and glanced at Hao Ren curiously as he spoke, "Do you know what your identity is 'this time'? Or at least some vague information emerged from your mind?"

How could Hao Ren have such a setting: "I don't feel anything."

"Maybe our situation is different," Nolan said casually, "You are the first person I have seen who retains memory besides me. I am not sure that every such person is the same."

From Nolan's words, Hao Ren guessed the other party's current situation: She did retain the memory of the last "reincarnation", but at the same time, she was also affected by this "reincarnation", and some memories were just popping up in her mind out of thin air These memories may be the false life experiences that this world has added to her out of thin air.

Up to an hour ago, Nolan's life experience belonging to this life.

It's easy to understand: How do you convince people that they live in a normal and orderly world if the whole world has only one hour of life from birth to the present? The only way is to fabricate a detailed and true history for them, so that they can believe in their birth, their growth, their experiences, their relationships, and their relationship with a bad friend ten years ago. , loving someone since twenty years ago, living in a certain place since thirty years ago, believing that my whole life, and the whole world before me, are so full and real—but in reality, it’s all Injected into your brain at some point an hour and fourteen minutes ago.

Perhaps everyone in the world is like this, with the exception of Nolan.

At sunset, Hao Ren and Nolan believed that they had already thrown off every pursuer behind them—or maybe no one chased them at all. In short, they found a cave, enough to hide the strange mountain bike and three people, and after confirming that there were no traces left outside, they finally settled down.

"I don't like caves," Nolan frowned. "I was smoked to death in a cave once."

The Corpse Ji terminal also yelled: "This machine doesn't like caves either, you use this machine as a flashlight every time..."

"Get out, go to the corner and rest, I won't carry you if I'm going to be tired this time!"

"oh."

Nolan looked at the blond girl who limped to the corner of the cave: "Is she really just a cerebral thrombosis?"

Hao Ren: "...you just treat every part of her brain as sick, I don't mind."

"I thought you two were very close." Nolan took a deep look at Hao Ren, "The scene of you running around behind her back even touched Carl, even me... Don't tell me I was deceived by appearances." Cheated."

Hao Ren giggled dryly: "It... in a sense... Forget it, let's talk about this world."

"This world?" The brilliance in Nolan's eyes dimmed, and she lowered her eyelids wearily, "I only know that this world is insane and disordered. As you can see... it has been resetting, changing, and evolving, just like a vicious world. The director is behind the scenes, and I can't remember how many absurd and weird 'stage plays' I have experienced." (To be continued~^~)
