MTL - To Four Thousand Years Later-v6 Chapter 3 life and death

In Carl's eyes, an orange guide sign appeared on the ground in front of him.

The artificial intelligence core of Shencheng No. 1 Consciousness Transfer Center, after Qiu verified that Carl's identity was safe, made a shallow connection with him, and stored some basic information he needed to know on the way to different rooms, It is marked with arrows and guide lines of different colors. No matter which direction he walked, he would definitely follow the guiding line-those without guiding lines would immediately trigger the alarm as soon as Karl tried to move in that direction. That's right, the authority theory of this era has changed from "not allowed" to "allowed". Every visitor will get his own way forward, which can effectively hinder intruders in almost all situations. In the past era , the reason for not doing this kind of processing is also very simple. It can consume less energy. This is the inertial thinking that everyone will get when they were in elementary school. The power of the sea of ​​​​the mind is endless. People have endless energy, infinite In other words, human beings are no longer "short-lived species". The so-called "efficiency" is something that needs to be achieved only in the "limited" field. In the infinite world, People just need perfection.

Carl took a calm and gentle deep breath as he moved forward slowly. He gradually adapted to his new body, and the muscles on his body rose and fell one by one.

The nutrient solution flowing down from his body slowly dripped on the dark brown soft carpet, gradually drying up and congealing as he walked more firmly and steadily. Only the shower room looks like a two-hundred-year-old structure: outside the thin wall of frosted glass, there are horizontal and vertical glass doors, and there is a space of five or six square meters inside. By the standards of a personal bathroom, it was very difficult. He opened the bathroom door manually. Clearly see the shower head in the middle of the room. But Karl didn't go in directly, but stopped outside and remained silent for a while.

Sure enough, Qiu's figure appeared beside him like a ghost.

"Do you need help?" She asked calmly: "The shower facilities here are indeed a bit old. I can provide you with the help you need.

Ka said in denial: "No, I know how to use the shower head. I just don't like people staring at me. Especially a lady." Qiu, who was floating in the air, looked at him for a while, and nodded silently.

"You have three hours and forty-two minutes.

She gave a final warning, and disintegrated from the air again. This time, Karl could feel that Qiu really left. As a "partner", she will not easily violate human orders—unless such orders conflict with other orders. Ka said that under the surveillance of artificial intelligence, the 14-hour surveillance of him was just a part of the previous order inertia. After Er clearly expressed the intention of rejection. She left naturally.

But Qiu won't know why Karl wants to dismiss her.

Carl walked into the shower room, and the automatically sensed water flowed down like heavy rain and adjusted to the appropriate water temperature. However, Karl didn't specifically wipe off the dry and solidified jelly on his body. Instead, he turned his gaze to the corner of the bathroom. There is a Jin ground mirror there. It is now obscured by fog. Carl quietly washed away the impurities on his body, but did not go to the hair dryer. Instead, he walked to the floor-to-ceiling mirror and reached out to wipe away the mist on it.

The person who emerged from it was a man in his early thirties. His shuanghe is exceptionally strong, and he should have done special weight-bearing training; there are muscles in the flanks, and this is not a position that ordinary people would exercise. The right eye is equipped with a 16x magnifying glass, and the right shoulder has subtle stitching marks. It shows that this body should be a sniper before. In addition, Karl stared at his face for a long time until he remembered it in his heart. It was the same as before—this body was not the one that "Carl" had planned before. He hadn't even seen the body before. Carl's heart trembled slightly.

Sure enough, everything was as the warlock said. The Zerg offensive against humans is not. In fact, a group of warlocks have already mixed into human society. It sounds incredible. In this era where human beings transmit information to each other through psychic fusion, how can there be alien spies?

Yes, the Zerg planted a bomb in the heart of this body. It's not for killing people, or destroying something. On the contrary, it's what Karl is about to use to "kill himself".

The task given to him by the Zerg is to connect with someone at the position where he was reborn. Then take what he gave to the Lin'an launch tower and hand it over to another person. After that, his bomb will trigger to blow him to nothing.

In this way, the memory he experienced in this life will be completely erased, and he will keep the last impression of the moment he saw "Shutu", and he will be reborn correctly into the body he set. When he reaches the "place where he can die" within a certain time, he will always live with this memory. Even if you die, you can't break free. In other words, he was selling his life. And I don't know what price to take to prove my innocence.

The Zerg's wood and soil gave his memory a cover, only ten days.

Ten days later, if he did not complete the task and did not arrive at the Lin'an launch tower within the stipulated time. Then when other people communicate with him spiritually. Will find out what Karl has done and discover his betrayal. If you follow our instructions, you can die; otherwise, you can only live. Yes, Karl can also tell Qiu everything. But the moment he was about to speak, he hesitated, since his rebirth position on earth could be modified, someone would come to find him again. Does it mean that the consciousness transfer center where he is located is not safe?

As his inspector, "Qiu" belongs to the human side or the Zerg side? He didn't say it there, and he never got a chance to say it afterward. Because he has essentially betrayed mankind. So. Want to help those bugs?

_Heh, what a joke. A group of dregs that will be destroyed sooner or later. No matter what the other party wants, the Carl must realize it.

He clasped his right hand to his chest. Feeling the timing of the miniature bomb fired from the heart, his expression gradually became solemn.

There are still ten days. If he can successfully end the Zerg conspiracy, then everything can be salvaged. Countless questions arose in my mind: What exactly does the Zerg want to do? How did the Sorcerers cover up his psionic energy? They can also erase his memory, how is this possible? And most importantly, who is the connector here? How could his rebirth go wrong?

First, go see the doctor.

Carl whispered, drying himself and putting on loose clothes with blue and white stripes like a hospital gown. Why did Dr. Zheng Fu specifically ask me not to attack him? Does he make me want to attack? The old doubts did not dissipate, and new doubts began to linger in my heart. Four hours later, Karl, who had already washed and rested, was sitting in his room when he heard the long-awaited knock on the door.

"Hi. Carl. I'm Zheng Fu.

The young voice from outside the door was gentle and calm, like a brother like a father

"I am your therapist, please open the door."
