Chapter 741 Small Theater: Another Story Line 2

"I always question this statement."

Chen Yan ignored the text message pop-ups that kept popping up on the screen and replied to Cyborg Quinn.

After a brief stagnation.

"You can't believe it unless you see it with your own eyes... Even if you see it with your own eyes, you won't be able to believe it for a while, because it doesn't conform to common sense——

How can a virus that only exists in a computer program infect biological matter——

How can a computer virus that uses a binary programming language as its form of existence, a processor as its computing carrier, transistors and printed circuit boards as its external structure, and silicate and monocrystalline silicon as its body, have an impact on human flesh and blood? Woolen cloth?"

Chen Yan typed quickly:

"Is it because this virus has to some extent... evolved into a silicon-based life form?"

Cyborg Quinn's answer made him feel regretful:

"That's what we originally thought. I even took a risk and got some of the infected meat...I don't know how to describe that thing...in short, it's just a "piece of infected meat"."

"The piece of meat was quickly sent for research, and the answer was returned - there was no existence similar to "life" in the infected part, and the thing was "dead"."

As for where to send it for research, Cyborg Quinn was unclear.

People infected with computer viruses undergo "mechanization," or "crystallization," or "metallization"—the infected biological tissue is distorted and possesses some of the properties of silicon-based metal, so it can carry some of it. Computer functions -

The brain has become a "brain computer" to a certain extent, a "brain computer" that can quickly process signals, output signals, and receive remote signals.

However, this kind of brain-computer is not a normal computer. Although it has some functions of a computer, it also causes many problems:

The infected person becomes sluggish and loses interest in everything. Although the person is still the same person before, his subjective consciousness and personality are still there, but the physiological functions related to the "mental" level are constantly deteriorating and distorted.

Cyborg Quinn was very worried that this computer virus would infect a large number of people, until what happened later negated his worries——

In the following period, based on the data obtained from Liang Baye, Cyborg Quinn discovered that this computer virus seemed to have a target, the infection was regular, and it would not spread on a large scale. .

Is the spread of this virus man-made?

If so, what is the purpose of the manipulator behind the scenes? Is it to control someone? Or what goals are they using infected people to achieve?

But Cyborg Quinn did not see the top executives of Spyro Industries being infected, nor did any top executive make any abnormal decisions that were beyond the scope of normal logic.

If not, was this computer virus introduced artificially?

A virus has been introduced. This virus cannot infect people casually. So what is the point of introducing this virus?

Cyborg Quinn just can't figure it out.

His mission underground was also greatly hindered at this time - the underground was too chaotic in those days, serious bloody conflicts broke out in the black heaven of the Omega Sector, and the angry uprising destroyed the people stationed in the Omega Sector. Heading to the mining machine passages in other sectors, Spyro Industries executives stopped the operation of the entire elevator passage, and everyone was trapped in the Omega Sector. As a result, out of fear, anger and despair, a larger-scale bloody conflict and An indiscriminate attack occurred...

The entire Omega sector is in chaos!

Cyborg Quinn has not dared to go out for several days, and all his news only comes from Liang Baye.

Fortunately, Liang Baye was reliable enough. Cyborg Quinn compared and verified the information that Liang Baye gave him every day with the information that the North Bureau sent him over the phone, and basically found it to be consistent.

"If there was no accident, I wouldn't have been able to go out. You don't know how chaotic it was outside at that time. There were gunshots all day long, and sometimes gunshots were even right next to me...

I was hiding in an abandoned mining machine at that time. Fortunately, the mining machine itself was designed to protect against mutated creatures underground, so the armor was thick enough."

When he said this, Chen Yan suddenly felt that Cyborg Quinn's emotions had become very complicated.

Chen Yan rarely sensed Cyborg Quinn's emotions from his mobile phone. First, because Cyborg Quinn was always wary and defensive about him. Second, because Cyborg Quinn was a data being.

The effect of Chen Yan's synaesthesia on digital life is not as strong as that on flesh and blood life.

But now Chen Yan feels it, which means that what Cyborg Quinn is going to tell him next has left an indelible impression on him, and may also bring about a huge turning point in his life...

"Then something very bad happened, damn, something very bad..."

I hated this incident and the person who gave the order. I encountered the biggest fear in the world...

But without this thing, I wouldn't be who I am now. Without this thing, I wouldn't have an independent personality as "Cyborg Quinn". I would always be a tool, a person who only exists.

There is no self-spirit in the mobile phone.》

In the third week of the Black Heaven Riots in the Omega Sector, Cyborg Quinn suddenly received a key message from the North Bureau:

A special infected person has appeared in the Omega Sector, and the North Bureau needs Cyborg Quinn to find this special infected person and bring him back to the North Bureau.

Cyborg Quinn's original mission when he came underground was not this. His original mission was to find information about the various forces involved in the Black Heaven riot and report this information.

At that time, his investigation was even fruitful. He figured out several emerging technology companies involved in the riots and obtained evidence that they participated in and led the riots-several emerging technology companies including the Baron Weiss Group.

Technology companies, these companies not only exist in the Northern Federation, but even in the more distant southern regions of the empire.

Even, Cyborg Quinn obtained and reported a crucial piece of news - after more than two weeks of riots, miners controlled by various forces have formed a separatist situation in the Omega Sector.

With thermal weapons and a steady supply of resources, Spyro Industries has been essentially divided into pieces.

"As far as I know, the subsequent situation was not like this."

Facing Chen Yan's interruption, Cyborg Quinn quickly explained:

"I know, be patient, young man, and listen to me."

The special infected person has no name, only a codename:

【White Snake】

Cyborg Quinn knew at the time that there were all kinds of weird snakes everywhere in the underground waters. He thought to himself, maybe it was because the computer virus infected the snakes in the underground waters, and the infected snake bit people.

And then new forms of infection emerged?

He doesn't know, so he must leave his safe house.

After two weeks of war, 80% of the infrastructure near Black Paradise was basically destroyed. After Cyborg Quinn left the safe house with a gun, he almost stayed in the dark.

Fortunately, he has Liang Baye - he used the resources of the North Bureau in exchange for part of the "vision sharing" with Liang Baye, so he can barely see in the dark - about 5 meters away

, although it is not much, it is barely enough.

He followed the direction indicated by the North Bureau - the damn North Bureau only gave him a vague direction, which was the eighth floor of the burned-out Black Heaven underground facility - he arrived here in the empty darkness, and soon

I soon found some people gathered here.

To be precise, they are the infected people gathered here.

Many computer virus infected people gathered here. They had lost consciousness and stood there like zombies, lowering their heads and swaying slightly from side to side.

Fortunately, their density was not too high, and Cyborg Quinn was able to move forward along the corridor.

The changes are happening quietly.

When Cyborg Quinn realized it, he had already seen that the metal walls around him began to flow at some point - he described it this way: "flowing" - just like data flowing and shuttling.

Everything around him became different, reality was distorting, and something unspeakable replaced the darkness at the edge of reality. The flowing data made Cyborg Quinn realize that he might have left reality.

The darkness at the edge of reality swallowed up all light, including sight. Most of his vision was eaten up by darkness, and now he could only see things within 1 meter.

This made him panic, and the darkness continued to intensify the panic until it turned into fear.

"Where is this? I don't know, and I don't understand. I don't know where this is, and I don't want to know... I just want to run away!"

Cyborg Quinn turned around and wanted to escape, but he couldn't escape no matter what. The corridor that was no more than 10 meters away from where he came from did not know when it became endless. He exhausted his energy after running wildly.

"I was scared out of my mind...you don't know how scary that situation is..."

Cyborg Quinn's fear ended with an encounter with a "human being".

"I still don't know if he is a human... Maybe it's because he has a human appearance, or maybe it's because he can speak human language... Anyway, I thought at the time, there was finally a normal person in this damn place...

Finally, I have a human being who can communicate with me!》

"He said his name was Lindsay."

"I found out later - I found out after being brained by a magpie that he was the director of the Neural Architecture Department of the Byron Swee Group, and his full name was Lindsay Robert Darwin."

The director personally went to the front line. This kind of thing was something Chen Yan could not understand.

"It's dangerous here, friend, and you shouldn't be here." - This is the first sentence Lindsay and Cyborg Quinn said.

Lindsay looks like a normal person - he looks like an ordinary rural Rooker, has a yellow beard and a low but not hoarse voice. He is wearing a yellow miner's uniform with reflective strips, and his hair is

Wearing a safety helmet, with a miner's pick on his back, and holding a small but obviously very powerful flashlight in his hand.

The light of the flashlight was very narrow and intense, but it was still swallowed up by the darkness.

"I know I shouldn't have come...but I can't get out! Damn it! Do you know the way out?"

Cyborg Quinn just wants to leave.

"I'm really sorry. The way out has been temporarily closed. We have to imprison a dangerous guy here. If it escapes, it may have a great impact on the world."

Lindsay said this with a full belly of justice - Cyborg Quinn used the word "full of justice" to describe Lindsay Robert Darwin.

"What kind of dangerous guy?" Cyborg Quinn asked this damn question out of unstoppable curiosity, and immediately wanted to slap himself in the mouth.

Although he regretted it very much, he still couldn't help but think in his heart, what was Lindsay looking for? Could it be the [White Snake] mentioned in the information given by the North Bureau?

"A miraculous creation."

Lindsay actually answered his question.
