Survivorship Bias - Chapter 146

    An Wujiu drove the car with his uninjured hand, looking around for Yang Erci and Zhong Yirou’s car, there were too many people fleeing on the road, the scene was chaotic, and the sound of pollutants caused him A certain degree of interference, it is not easy to find them.

    Occasionally, the noisy artificial intelligence radio sound came from the earphone device, intermittently, An Wu Jiu could not tune the complete audio, so he could only give up.

    “Current road conditions…fire, blockage, please be reasonable…in front of the municipal building…”

      Miscellaneous, there is a subtle sense of weirdness.

    Now the whole world is in chaos, and only AI is still working tirelessly.

    An Wujiu doubts that even if it is the end of the world and all human beings disappear on this planet, these AIs may work as usual until they evolve their own civilization.

    While driving, An Wujiu, who had been observing the road, discovered a fact that he had been ignoring. Whenever a human being was attacked by pollutants, his sanity was reset to zero, and the names of these victims would be Appeared above their heads in a flash.

    For example, the blond man who fell in front of him now, a name flashed on the top of his head – Wilson Swixter.

    Although it is a small detail, An Wujiu always feels a little strange, in their games before the altar, every player’s name was clearly displayed in the game from the beginning of the game In front of them, so that others can call them.

    Maybe this time the number is too large to display directly.

    No time to delve into it, An Wu Jiao has more important things to do.

    The front is the three-way intersection, and the distance is very close. If his estimation is correct, Yang Erci will drive from Road A to this three-way intersection, and he will turn to Road B of the three-way road. That is the road where they were killed by the masked man and An Wujiu was driving over to find them.

    But now the monster corpses are blocking all the back, even if they can’t touch themselves, they can only be forced to turn at the fork in the road and drive to C road.

    While thinking, An Wujiu glanced at the rearview mirror of the car, and suddenly found a black car following him. He took a closer look and found that the person driving the car was not a masked man, but an ordinary middle-aged man.

    An Wujiu had a bad instinct, wanted to get rid of the car, and was worried about staggering with them after passing the three-way intersection.

    I went through so much in retrospect, and now any little disturbance will make An Wujiu think of the masked man unconsciously.

    He glanced at the rearview mirror again, the man in the driver’s seat looked nervous, his expression and movements were stiff.

    An Wujiu swerved his direction, changed lanes, and drove in the opposite direction on Road A, staggering from the car behind him.

    At the moment of brushing, An Wujiu looked at the back seat of the other party’s car, wanting to see if his guess was right.

     But at this moment, the car swayed suddenly, An Wu Jiu heard the sound of the silencer gun, the next second, the window on the driver’s side was splattered with blood, A whole piece of glass fell off.

    Apparently, the man in the driver’s seat was shot in the head.

    As An Wujiu expected, this kind of murderous behavior can only be the masked man and no one else.

    The black car changed lanes again, swerved, and accelerated forward sharply, targeting the innocent car.

    Through the car window, he saw the masked man pulling away the man in the driver’s seat extremely impatiently.

    This is probably the first time he has lost control of the overall situation, which is why he is so angry.

    The speed of the other party was almost reaching the limit, but An Wu Jiu remained motionless and stopped the car.

    According to the plot of the last reincarnation, it will take a few minutes for Yang Erci and Zhong Yirou to appear here. For the masked man, his goal is obviously the two of them. At this time, he killed himself, and the game would probably lack a lot of fun for him.

    He was focused, staring at the opponent who might crash his car.

    Two meters.

    One meter.

    The sound of the engine is getting closer and closer.

    As expected, just as it was about to hit, the car driven by the masked man suddenly braked.

    Now!

    An Wujiu aimed his gun at the person in the opposite driver’s seat and pulled the trigger!

    But he didn’t expect that the car suddenly veered away and changed lanes quickly to turn right. The shot also missed under his extremely quick reaction, but it shattered the windshield The glass didn’t even wipe the masked man’s shoulder.

    An Wu Jiu saw him driving a black car, brushed past his car, and drove towards C road.

    C…

    An Wujiu’s heartbeat skipped a beat, and he immediately turned around!

    As expected, under the blinding lights that the masked man deliberately turned on, An Wujiu saw Yang Erci’s face in the driver’s seat.

    The masked man was driving at them!

    The AI ​​broadcast just heard mentions the municipal building, but he didn’t care. The municipal building is on the B road. If there is a fire there, this road will not be able to go.

    Watching the masked man’s car rush towards them, and inside the car, his hand has raised the gun, An Wujiu can only choose to hit hard, drive directly into his car, and Shooting again, disrupting the movement of the masked man.

    Yang Erci saw An Wu Jiu, her heart stabilized a little, and she tried her best to stagger away from the express train in front of her that was trying to hit her.

    A narrow road where three cars meet.

    With the cooperation, An Wujiu smashed the masked man’s car into the roadside in a way that was close to death, and the two cars rushed directly into a room on the roadside under the huge impact force. Shops, glass windows shatter in an instant.

      , his head slammed out like this, and his eyes went black for a moment.

    The only good thing is that An Wu Jiao is not an ordinary person.

    He opened his eyes with difficulty, and his vision was full of blood, blood dripping from the top of his head. An Wu Jiu raised the back of his hand and wiped it, there was a dull dull pain on the back of his hand, he just realized that the back of his hand was scratched by the deformed car under the impact, the flesh was split open, and the metal bones inside could be seen directly.

    Not only the hand, but also the right leg, the metal patella of the knee is exposed.

    Before it was too late to bandage, An Wujiu picked up the gun, kicked open the badly deformed car door, step by step, staggered towards the masked man’s car.

    He was still inside, An Wujiu saw his hand trying to hold the car door.

    The impact of the masked man should be far greater than that of him.

    An Wujiu picked up the gun, aimed at the back of the masked man’s head, and dragged his wounded body closer.

    This time, he hit with one shot, but he didn’t know the other party’s life or death.

    The pain continued to spread, the internal organs of the innocent were damaged, and it became difficult to breathe. He lowered his hand and thought about whether to replace the gun.

    But he was afraid of getting into the other person’s trap.

    He looked around, it was terribly quiet, it didn’t look like a place where a large number of pollutants would ambush.

    But what if there is?

    To be on the safe side, An Wujiu stood on the spot and shot at the unconscious figure until he had the last few bullets left.

    Even if it was a target, it has now been penetrated.

    An Wujiu turned around, dragged his limping legs and walked out, leaving here.

    Just as he was about to walk out of the door of the destroyed store, a roar of crowded pollutants erupted behind him.

    Sure enough, it came.

    These pollutants are different from the ones he encountered along the way, and their voice is only one sentence.

    [Kill 99. ]

    This proves that the masked man is indeed capable of manipulating pollutants.

    It’s just that he still doesn’t know if they were summoned by the masked life, or if he didn’t die at all, and it’s too late to think now, he must find a new vehicle, or he will be trapped here.

    An Wu Jiu didn’t look back, he tried his best to move forward, but he could feel a tentacle about to touch the back of his head.

    “No fault!”

    He heard Zhong Yirou’s voice.

    A bullet carried the wind through the side of his ear, hit him directly behind him, and pierced the tentacle.

    The pollutants burst out in pain, An Wu Jiu saw Zhong Yirou with a gun. Their car stopped in front of him.

    “Get in the car.” Yang Erci looked at the pollutants that rushed towards them.

    “Good.”

    The car door was open, An Wujiu immediately got into the back seat and closed the door, a pollutant’s sharp claw and tentacles were caught in the car door, the tentacles were still splitting, causing Zhong Yirou to scream.

    “Hurry up!”

    An Wujiu pulled out the bamboo leaves and cut off these things that came in.

    Zhong Yirou sat back in the co-pilot’s chair and let out a long sigh of relief, “It scared me to death.”

    Yang Erci hooked the corner of her mouth, “It’s good to have a good head.”

    “That is, how can I say that my hands are also the hands of the operation.”

    An Wujiu looked at the two of them, a little lost, now that he is in the same car with them, listening to them talking and even laughing, it is like a dream.

    Zhong Yirou smiled smugly, while speaking, she turned to look at An Wu Jiu, seeing his wounds, she felt distressed, “God, Wu blame you, you are hurt too badly, why? We don’t even have a first aid kit…”

    “It’s fine.” An Wujiu shook his head, his face was pale, he was pressing his bleeding hand, “You are all right.”

    “We’re fine, it’s fine.” Zhong Yirou was still worried about his injury, “That’s not good, go back to my house first, and I’ll get the tools so I can fix it for you, otherwise it will become serious .”

    When she heard that she wanted to go home, An Wujiu’s heart immediately had the shadow of the last time back, “Don’t go back, I just separated from Shen Ti Nanshan and Wu You, they are going to L Chengkai, ready to go to Chauvin.”

    “Chauvin?” Yang Erci looked at the road and asked, “Going all night?”

    “Yes.” An Wujiu intends to explain it later, “Anyway, let’s go meet them now.”

    Yang Erci nodded, re-planned the itinerary, and said: “The masked guy just now, he seems to want to kill us, I thought he was planning to rob me and Yirou of time, but It doesn’t look like it, do you know him?”

    “Yes.” An Wujiu told them as briefly as possible what happened before, without Shen Ti, he couldn’t directly transmit the memory of the previous round to these two, he could only dictate .

    After hearing what he said, Zhong Yirou was stunned for several seconds.

    “Is this true? Can you travel through?”

    An Wujiu nodded, “It can be said that, all in all, that masked man is very dangerous.”

    “It’s not just dangerous, if that’s the case, he is also your old enemy.” Zhong Yirou unconditionally believed him, and after hearing the story of the complete failure of the last reincarnation, she was not depressed, and she was still optimistic.” If you saved us this time, it can be regarded as a change of history. Thinking about it this way, my mood is different now, and I feel so lucky.”

    “But every change may cause other disasters, which is uncertain.” An Wujiu said.

    Yang Erci whispered, “It’s enough to hurry up now.”

    She glanced in the rear-view mirror. In so many previous crises, he has behaved freely and controlled the overall situation. He seldom got wounds all over his body and blood on his face like he is now. The whole person looks like a broken but still glued fine porcelain. .

    “Thank you.”

     Hearing this sentence, An Wu Jiu raised his eyes slowly and met Yang Erci’s eyes in the mirror.

    “It’s your fault.”

    It was the first time she saw An Wujiu laugh like this, even a little childish.

    “They must be very happy to see you reunited safely.”

    Yang Erci had a strange feeling.

    She thought, maybe An Wu Jiao can be knocked down many times, even broken many times, and his body is covered with bruises, but he can also do it all over again.

    He’s obviously a smart guy, but he’s clumsy.

    “Right.” An Wujiu thought of something, the smile on his face faded, and he quickly asked, “Did you receive an email from your father? Before the game started.”

    Yang Erci nodded, “That’s right.”

    “The masked man seems to want this email very much.” An Wujiu told her, “It was because of this last time that he killed you.”

    Yang Erci understood, “It was indeed sent by my father. According to what you said, it may have been sent to me by accident from a living father in a parallel world. It hasn’t been fully cracked, and the time is too late, and the **** game has begun.”

    She told An Wujiu what she knew without reservation: “This email is probably the information my father collected about Chauvin and the altar. Twelve years ago, there was a Chauvin’s prosthetic body manufacturing factory was shut down because a researcher surnamed Shen discovered a bug in the code and thought it should not continue to be implemented, so it was shut down at the time, but according to my dad’s investigation, the factory made The prosthetics that came out were all handled by one person, sold at a low price, and circulated on the market. By coincidence, that person was the father of our old friend Maguire.”

    An Wujiu frowned.

    “It was the earliest batch of prosthetics he traced back, including implantable endoskeletons, artificial eyes, and prosthetic limbs. The ‘virus’ in these prostheses circulates in these neural networks connected in series with each other, and the carrier that connects each other will be present in almost everyone.”

    An Wujiu thought of it, he should have thought of it long ago.

    “Citizen Chip.”

    “That’s right.” Yang Erci said solemnly, “This is the reason why the altar can invade everyone now.”
