Survivorship Bias - Chapter 147

    It turned out to be a chip.

    An Wujiu always felt that if the altar was only through those contaminated prosthetic limbs, it would never be able to pull so many people into the altar, but he There is no consideration towards Citizen Chip.

    When he remembered that his mother had dug up his and his sister’s chips before, he thought that his mother just wanted to cut off the way for others to find them, so that they could escape smoothly, But now it seems that she is probably thinking more.

    ”This trick is very poisonous.” Zhong Yirou snorted, “Although there are some people who don’t have citizen chips, but these people have a hard time surviving, because of money It is very likely that they will take the risk and take the initiative to enter the altar, and the remaining people who have citizen chips but do not participate in the virtual game of the altar will be polluted when the time is right, which is really a big game.”

    Yang Erci drove the car and nodded, “I didn’t want to believe this before, but the more I investigate, the more supernatural events appear. In addition to mentioning this matter in the email, there are two important pieces of information: one is about ‘God’, strange and unfamiliar texts have appeared in the homes of many researchers who have died mysteriously. My dad has kept them on file. In order to find out what was written, I searched through the historical records and visited many philologists.”

    ”A scholar of ancient writing told him that these writings were very similar to the writings created by a short-lived and extinct ancient civilization in B.C. It could even be said that are homologous, and the texts used by ancient civilizations are simplified versions.”

    Zhong Yirou was a little surprised, “Does this mean that this ‘god’ is not actually the first time he has come to Earth? Shouldn’t he live in the universe? Some higher planet?”

    An Wujiu continued: “I don’t even think they are living beings of the same dimension as us. For them, even the boundaries of time and space can be erased, We are rubbed together in different time and space, is it like stacking all quantum superposition states?

    The so-called gods are more like condescending observers, and all of us human beings are just a certain particle being observed, and time is orderly for us It is meaningless to them and can be altered at will. “

    An Wujiu’s remarks made Zhong Yirou feel very uneasy, she never thought that there would exist a group of living beings who regarded them as ornamental objects.

    ”They shouldn’t just want to see the ants move.” Zhong Yirou asked a little dejectedly.

    ”You can say that they enjoy helping the ants to move and trample them to death.” Yang Erci continued, “The construction technology and literary development of that ancient civilization were all Far beyond other civilizations in the same period, it can be said to surpass the times, but in the end it was only a flash in the pan. The result of archaeology was that it only existed for 99 years, and its demise was very complete. Even the land where they once lived sank in the sea. already.”

    The more Zhong Yirou thought about it, the more terrified she felt.

    An Wujiu bowed his head and saw the blood-stained 99 on the back of his hand.

    Preferences are really consistent.

    ”I feel that our current era is similar to the ancient civilization that existed.”

    An Wujiu said in a low voice, as if thinking to himself, “They raised a group of gregarious creatures, cultivated their civilization system, and then destroyed it They. Aren’t we in a phase of ruin now too?”

    ”Why do you spend so much time, is it necessary?” Zhong Yirou couldn’t understand.

    “Maybe this is just one of their meals.” An Wujiu thought of what Russell said in the previous round, “What they want to eat is human food. Go crazy collectively.”

    Eat.

    An Wu Jiu couldn’t help thinking of the “Last Supper” in the bunker when he entered the first copy.

    That is not the original intention of the painting, there is no betrayal and loyalty, it may just be a humorous ridicule of the evil god, a prophecy.

    He graciously informed them that this time, this long and frantic demise was the end of their civilization, but it was only his dinner That’s it.

& nbsp; In the car, these speculations made the air more and more dignified, as if death was in the next moment.

    Yang Erci clenched the steering wheel tightly and told them the rest, “Actually, there is no need to be so pessimistic, it is precisely because the two languages ​​are similar to a certain extent , so he and some experts also got a little bit of a word about God.”

    An Wujiu raised his eyebrows, “Really? Even a little bit of information is good.”

    ”I just don’t know the truth.” Yang Erci said in an orderly manner, “There are three main points. He needs enough sacrifices to wake up, which is consistent with what you mentioned, God feeds on the chaos and madness of human beings; the latter two points are very incomplete, only know the ‘heart of the homologous’, and also There is “not to be called by his first name.”

    Zhong Yirou smiled bitterly after listening to it, “It feels a bit like the prompt that I got before the big boss in the movie.”

    Heart…

    An Wujiu thinks of the religion in the previous Blood Moon dungeon, which indeed regards the heart as the most important organ, the “container of the soul”.

    As for the name…

    An Wu Jiu suddenly realized that Shen Ti’s real name, his own name, was unknown to him until now.

    Shen Ti doesn’t seem to remember.

    ”It seems that in many Western legends, some demons’ life gates are their own names.” Zhong Yirou thought of the novels she had read, “so they would not take it lightly. Telling people their names is a form of self-preservation. But why?”

    The car was running out of gas, Yang Erci saw that there was a nearby gas station on the map, changed direction, and explained: “It’s probably like a program, named A variable of , if you want to do any operation on it, you must pass the variable name, even if there is a difference in one letter, an error will be reported. In an information age like ours, you can search with a name, and the information contained in a name is Enough to kill a man.”

    Zhong Yirou nodded, “You’re right.”

    In the past two timelines, An Wujiu did not meet Yang Erci in the time and space he was in, this time was different, he got Yang Ce The information in the email is obviously Yang Ce’s hard work for many years. These findings are likely to play a very critical role.

    The masked man wanted to kill Yang Erci and stop the flow of information. The purpose seemed clear.

    But An Wujiu always believed that he was not so simple.

    During the drive, he felt vaguely wrong, as if they were constantly approaching a noisy place, and the noise was getting louder and louder Really.

    Yang Erci continued to drive forward.

    There is a gas station in front of the road, but if it is not marked on the map, it is impossible to see what it looks like.

    Because this place has been occupied by pollutants, it is densely packed, at least thirty. The pillars outside the gas station are coiled by tentacles, the glass is absorbed by suction cups, the contaminants with twisted limbs are crawling on the ceiling of the gas station, there are many prey before they are biting and eating, the ground has become a pool of blood, and even the top is lying on the top. There are several big toads that look like two heads, but they have blue eyes all over their bodies.

    ”Do you want to withdraw?” Zhong Yirou felt nauseated, picked up the gun and lowered her voice.

    Before Yang Erci and An Wujiu could answer, the pollutants in the distance raised their heads at the same time and slowly turned their heads until they looked directly at the three of them.

    Zhong Yirou raised the gun subconsciously, but did not shoot directly, she was afraid of attracting more attention of pollutants, “Run or go?”

    ”No.” An Wujiu advised Yang Erci, “Let’s go first, there are too many here, we only have three, and if you don’t die, you will be seriously injured.”

    It turned out that his intuition was to sense these huge quantities of pollutants.

    Of course Yang Erci knew, and An Wujiu was already seriously injured, if he really did, he would definitely rush to become the main force.

    But…

    ”Yirou, shoot first, you can kill as many people as you can.” Yang Erci controlled the car to reverse, and ordered her, “Quicker.”

    An Wujiu only then reacted, after all, acting cautiously is Yang Erci’s style, but this time she was uncharacteristically aggressive.

    ”Isn’t Yirou running out of time?”

    ”Well.” Yang Erci looked at the rearview mirror and reversed the car, the in-car system kept giving warnings, but now he had no choice.

    Those pollutants came faster than expected, the gun in An Wu Jiu’s hand didn’t have many bullets, he leaned forward to take the gun beside Yang Erci , The moment he bowed his head, his vision went black, there was a loud bang, and on the windshield, a pollutant was facing them and opened his mouth wide open!

    Zhong Yirou fired several times, but the skin of the pollutant was extremely strong, causing almost no damage. the eye above the opponent’s mouth.

    Pollutants erupted into a sharp howl of pain, Yang Erci took the opportunity to change from reversing to forward, and pushed the guy directly down the windshield.

    But the success is short-lived, the surrounding pollutants are constantly rushing towards them, and the roof of the car is sunken, Zhong Yirou tried her best to kill, the time will increase, But her sanity and health are constantly decreasing.

    An Wujiu raised his hand and used Zhu Yeqing to cut off a tentacle that had come in through the glass hole, but when he looked up, he saw a pollution that was about to attack in the back right of Zhong Yirou thing.

    ”Yirou watch out to the right!”

     After Zhong Yirou heard this, she quickly turned her head and raised her gun. One shot hit the pollutant’s head. It splashed directly into Zhong Yirou’s right eye.

    The pain lingers for a second, followed by a sharp, swarming pain, the caustic liquid hole piercing her eyeball like a bite worms that got in.

    Seeing Zhong Yirou suddenly covering her right eye and her voice changing, An Wujiu realized something, he searched everywhere in the car for water, and finally found half a bottle Not finished.

    ”Yirou, let go of your hand, I’ll pour water on your eyes…”

    He was stunned when he saw Zhong Yirou’s hand down.

    The right eyeball has been punctured by corrosion, in such a short time.

    An Wu Jiu didn’t know what to do, there were pollutants behind her that were attacking the crumbling glass windows, he could only pick up Zhong Yirou’s gun to solve them first .

    ”My eyes…” Zhong Yirou was almost paralyzed by the pain, her left eye kept dripping with rational tears, causing her to see more and more clearly.

    But she knew exactly what was going on.

    Yang Erci also saw it, and she regretted it deeply, “Yirou, we will go out soon.”

    She just wanted Zhong Yirou to have more time, at least not to die because of losing time, but she never thought that it would cause such a result.

    But even if they don’t come here, their car won’t be driving for long.

    It was Zhong Yirou who lost her eyeballs, but Yang Erci suffered more than her.

    But she didn’t know what she should say in this situation.

    “Yirou…”

    Zhong Yirou raised her head, “I know.”

    She raised her hand, wiped the tears from her left eye, rummaged for another gun she had hidden under the base, raised it and aimed it at the gun in front of the windshield pollutants.

    ”One eye is better for aiming.”

    Contaminants came from all directions, blocking their car, and the frenzied and ferocious siege nearly overturned it.

    The large movement made An Wujiao’s wound open, blood dripping down his arm, but he is the only combat power now, and he can only use The **** hand held the gun and continued.

    An Wujiu knew that this would not work, their firepower would not last long, and they would only be consumed by these pollutants.

    He must find a chance to get off. He can also use a knife.

    But this crazy idea of ​​near destruction was snuffed out.

    A flash of light drew the attention of some contaminants, and a loud engine sound appeared above them.

    is an aircraft.

    Curiosity is the instinct of these pollutants, but it also costs them. In the next second, intense firepower appeared and caught them off guard.

    Oddly enough, the firepower completely avoided the car.

    An Wujiu still held the gun vigilantly, leaned to the car window, and tried to see who was coming.

    Outside the broken glass window, he looked at the cockpit of the aircraft and saw a familiar face.

    It is Matsuura Mori who died in the copy.

    And the two people who were shooting with weapons on the aircraft, one was Todo Ying, who also died in that copy, and the other was Zhou Yijue, who was also an enemy and a friend.

    Zhou Yijue also saw him and laughed loudly.

    ”Savior, you will be saved by me one day.”
