Crash bosses in escape games

Does this start a cycle?

From the original world, to the Gross Research Institute, to the Siren Ship, to the next world fragment...

Liang Fei's complexion sank. If the game's "Second Week" is going to start next, it means that he is still far from the truth.

But soon, his train of thought was interrupted.

The metal door made a beeping sound, and opened slowly after the beep sounded.

Before the metal door was fully opened, there was a faint voice of conversation behind the door.Suddenly appearing in an unfamiliar environment, Liang Fei's first reaction was to find a place to hide temporarily.Even if you know that there is more than one camera above your head and temporarily avoid direct contact with others, you can buy a certain amount of time to respond.

Liang Fei's location was very similar to when he first woke up from the Gross Research Institute, it was a confined space with a metallic cold luster.The whole room can temporarily hide the position of the body, only a few large cabinets near the corner.

Taking advantage of the noise when the metal door opened, Liang Fei opened one of the cabinets and ducked inside.

As soon as he stood up in the closet, he heard the footsteps of at least two people stop at the door of the closet less than half a meter away from him, followed by the rustling sound of cloth rubbing against each other.

Liang Fei glanced to the side through the light coming through the gap in the cabinet, and couldn't help but feel annoyed.Because this turned out to be a cabinet for storing and changing clothes, as soon as the staff entered the room, the first thing to do was to open the cabinet and change clothes.

Sure enough, before Liang Fei got used to the darkness in the cabinet, the door was pulled open.

Unexpectedly, the staff member who opened the cabinet door didn't seem to see that there was another person in the cabinet, bypassed where Liang Fei was standing, and reached out to take away his own clothes.

Same as the first person who opened the cabinet, the other staff member who talked to him also ignored Liang Fei and took his clothes.

They can't see him?

Liang Fei gestured to hit the person in front of the eyes, but the person on the other side didn't respond, it didn't look like he was pretending.

Before the staff left, Liang Fei reached out to touch the end of his hair.The touched hair ends were slightly bent, and from the perspective of the staff, it seemed that those few hairs were blown by the breeze.

Can touch inanimate matter, and can touch people, but the other party can't see him.Not sure whether these people could hear his voice, for the sake of caution, he could only hold his breath and minimize the noise he made.

The two staff members changed their clothes and left, while Liang Fei took advantage of the opening of the metal door to leave the dressing room behind them.

The pale and silent corridor brought back his familiar memories.He has no impression of the terrain here, perhaps a location in the Gross Institute that he has never explored.

I don't know if I can find the core position of the institute if I continue to follow these two staff members.

"How long do you think they want to hold on?" the staff walking on the left suddenly said.

"Who knows, I think they have given up a long time ago, just to stabilize people's hearts, and dare not make the results public. They can only continue to pretend that there is still a glimmer of hope, and let us low-level soldiers mess around." His companion answered casually. road.

"Do you also think there is no hope?" The man on the left was a little disappointed.

"Isn't this kind of thing obvious? In fact, I don't care. Anyway, I don't have a family anymore. It doesn't make much difference if I die early or late. But you, do you still have a child at home?" the companion said.

The man on the left lowered his head in silence, and after a long time he responded, forced a smile and said, "Maybe we are too pessimistic? It's useless to think wildly, it's better to do the work at hand first."

"You're right, if you have to die tomorrow, but you didn't eat a good dinner today, wouldn't it be a big loss." The companion laughed exaggeratedly, and patted the shoulder of the person on the left hard.

The two maintained their superficial happiness and headed to the cafeteria while fighting.Liang Fei followed to the entrance of the cafeteria, and seeing that the two of them were no longer talking about valuable topics, he slowed down and left quietly.

The area where meals are provided is crowded with people, and there is a risk of being discovered.Liang Fei could only turn into a remote and narrow corridor, look at the guidance signs on the floor of the corridor, and continue forward to possibly lead to the outside of the research institute.

This corridor was unimaginably long, and Liang Fei walked quickly for nearly 10 minutes before he could barely see the end.As we walked forward, the lights at the top of the corridor became dimmer. By the time Liang Fei reached the finish line, the sci-fi feeling brought by the white lights had disappeared, replaced by the atmosphere of an old hospital more like a horror movie.

At the end is a slightly dilapidated small iron door, which has not been opened for a long time, and the joint between the door and the door frame is covered with dust visible to the naked eye.

Liang Fei pressed the door open button, and the iron door slowly opened.

A cold feeling came over his face. It was unclear whether it was caused by the sudden drop in temperature or the picture in front of him. The moment the iron door opened, Liang Fei's back froze, and his hairs almost stood on end.

He is very familiar with the darkness behind the iron gate, and he has seen it in other world fragments more than once.

There is no sky, no ground, not even air.

It was nothingness, a nothingness that devoured everything that could be touched and felt.

……

A researcher in a white coat rubbed his hair and walked lazily past Liang Fei.

"Why did the door open..." The white coat murmured a few words to himself, stretched out his hand to support the iron door and looked out, sighing, "It's so fast, we are almost at the door."

"At this rate, within a few weeks, even the research institute will be swallowed up." The white coat pulled the corners of his mouth, forced an ugly smile, "At that time, how long can humans last?"

Under the eyes of the white coat, there are thick blue-black accumulations, the hair is shaky, and the beard may not have been trimmed for a long time.He even had a smell of alcohol and tobacco that couldn't be masked by the disinfectant, which was incompatible with the rigorous and tidy style of the research institute.

He slumped his shoulders and closed the door, and walked back crookedly, leaving Liang Fei alone with his shock and doubts.

Devouring?

Liang Fei thought of the conversation between the two at the beginning, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Could it be that the black void outside the door is the countdown to the extinction of mankind?

"Why is Professor Chen here?" Someone from the other side of the corridor suddenly raised his voice.

As soon as the man finished speaking, more than a dozen researchers in neat white coats walked over quickly, blocking the narrow corridor.

The white coat at the beginning, or Professor Chen replied with a smile: "I have nothing to do, come and take a look. How about you?"

The expression of the person who asked the question suddenly became a little embarrassed, and the rest of the people also looked at each other in blank dismay, and the noise in the corridor disappeared instantly.

At the moment when the corridor was completely quiet, a voice that was a bit abrupt in the research institute suddenly appeared from behind the crowd.

"Professor Chen can estimate how much time we have left by observing the speed of void devouring?"

The white coats separated to both sides of the corridor, and among the tall and thin researchers, a boy who only reached the chest of the average researcher's height suddenly walked out.

Professor Chen saw the boy's face clearly, twitched the corner of his mouth, and said with a sneer, "Oh, it's a great genius."

There was an unconcealable sarcasm in the deliberately protracted tone, and the others seemed unable to hear the objection between their words, and only looked at the two in the middle of the crowd in silence.

The other protagonist under the eyes of everyone, the boy known as the "Great Genius" did not respond to the elder's malice, but only looked at Professor Chen indifferently, until the other party stepped back half a step in embarrassment because of guilt.

When Liang Fei found a gap and squeezed into the center of the crowd from the back of the corridor, what he saw was the scene of the two confronting each other.

Liang Fei's eyes paused for a moment on the young man, and the young man's face made him feel very familiar.It wasn't until he saw the name tag on the young man's chest that he finally felt a sense of dust settled.

There are two words written on the name tag - Xie Kun.

Xie Kun in front of him looked only in his teens, the age when ordinary people of the same age were still in school.The boy who was also wearing a white coat and goggles was hidden among a group of adults, but his expressionless face unexpectedly fit the temperament of the institute.

Liang Fei had thought many times about Xie Kun's childhood appearance, maybe ordinary or rebellious.But at this moment, when the youthful Xie Kun really appeared in front of his eyes, those fantasies from the past gradually blurred, merged, and finally condensed into the appearance in front of him.

This is probably Xie Kun's memory.

Although I don't understand why the road to "truth" leads to Xie Kun's memory, the answer to everything is obviously hidden here.

"Are you so clear about what to do, draw a countdown card on your desk?" Professor Chen sneered.

"Calculate the time when humans can make the last effort." Xie Kun said.

"Is the research team still trying to find a way to jump in space?" Xie Kun asked again.

Professor Chen turned cold when he heard the words, and said angrily: "What does it have to do with you! The research team will never give up hope until the second before the extinction of human beings. Unlike some people, they don't even know how to struggle at the end. Will escape into impossible daydreams!"

Xie Kun's face remained unchanged: "Professor Chen should understand the concept of spatial dimensions to enter the research institute."

Under the high pressure of survival, even the logistics staff of the institute can know these concepts by heart.

Zero dimension is the basis of everything, which is equivalent to an abstract point.No length, area, volume.One-dimensional is the line formed by countless points, only length.Two lines intersect to form a surface, that is, a two-dimensional space.There is no thickness.Planar creatures living in two-dimensional space cannot understand height, just as ants cannot understand jumping, and paramecium cannot understand flying.

Three-dimensional space has length, width and height, and human beings live in three-dimensional space.Three-dimensional space includes everything from zero-dimensional to two-dimensional, and so on, and four-dimensional space is composed of three-dimensional spaces on all time spans.Three-dimensional creatures can only experience time in one direction, but in the eyes of four-dimensional creatures, the past, future and present are juxtaposed, and they can see every point in time.Just like reading a book, the one-way flow of time for a character is meaningless in the eyes of a four-dimensional creature, because it can choose to read any plot at will.

What the research team wants to do now is to break through the boundaries of low-dimensional creatures and use the skills of high-dimensional creatures.Just like ants want to jump, bacteria want to fly.

"With the current human technology and the time left, it is useless to continue to study the method of space jump." Xie Kun said.

Even among a group of researchers who think rationally and logically, such cold words seem so inhuman.It is precisely because everyone present has a logical deduction ability higher than ordinary people's level, so everyone knows the meaning behind this sentence.

The destruction of humanity has been irreversible.
