Sweep across the Doomsday Proving Ground [Unlimited]

Xu Zhuo's breath gradually became chaotic.

Breathing interlacedly, he closed his eyes, his long eyelashes trembling slightly, and vigorously responded to the kiss.At this time, the clouds outside the window were just beginning to open, and the skylight penetrated through their noses, lengthening the entangled shadows.

After a while, Xu Zhuo raised his thin eyelids and looked up at Gu Chengye.

The pictures hidden deep in the memory are like scattered fragments, gradually pieced together to form a complete picture...

——It is also the scene where the sky is falling.

In the dark concrete room, a few rays of light quietly came in from the window and fell on the edge of the bed.The rusty iron frame kept ringing, and they breathed heavily, feeling each other's movements.

As if about to be carved into flesh and blood, Xu Zhuo's back tensed and hit the cold metal bedpost, but it didn't cool down the room any more.There were tears in the corners of his eyes, and he grabbed Gu Chengye's hair tightly.

After a few seconds, even the tears couldn't stop, and the moment they flowed down the cheeks, the tears were completely wet.

The surrounding beds are empty, and the light and shadow are like overlapping figures—staggered, entangled, and then stretched, and finally spread to every corner of the room.

At a later moment, Gu Chengye gently brushed away his half-wet hair, and whispered in his ear, telling him that these people will never come back.

Xu Zhuo's eyelashes trembled.

"Don't be afraid."

As if feeling something, Gu Chengye held Xu Zhuo's fingers tightly, leaned over and pecked at the end of his eyes.

Just like now.

Gu Chengye held his cheeks, rubbed his callused fingertips over the corners of his lips, the tip of his nose, and the corners of his eyes, and finally closed his eyes and kissed him—this is an extreme tenderness, like treating the water drops on the tip of a leaf, It seems that if you use a little force, you will crush the opponent.

After the kiss was over, Xu Zhuo took a step back.

At this time, a blush appeared on his pale cheeks, and without looking at the other party again, he lowered his eyes and calmed down his breath.

Gu Chengye smiled, and wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes with his thumb: "What did you think of?"

Xu Zhuo tilted his head: "No."

"really?"

"Ah."

Gu Chengye looked at Xu Zhuo for a few seconds, then his eyes fell on his shoulder: "Does the old injury still hurt?"

Xu Zhuo shook his head.

The moment they looked at each other, Gu Chengye's kiss fell again.

It seems soothing, gentle and beautiful.

……

At this time, there was still soft sky light outside the window. Although the Poly Building was in ruins under the attack of the robots, the gunpowder smoke that belonged here was no longer there, as if it was isolated from the whole world.

There was movement not far away.

The surviving subjects gradually recovered their five senses.

They looked around, as if in disbelief, until they saw the skylight falling in from the window, and they suddenly came back to their senses.For a while, the corridor was filled with cries and laughter.

Lin Cheng poked his head out from the crowd, anxiously looking for Xu Zhuo and Gu Chengye.

Next to him was Sun Ze, who also searched all the way from the laboratory on the left, and then saw Yang Bing lying on the ground.

Lin Cheng shrank back subconsciously.

"It's okay, you can see that he doesn't move." Sun Ze didn't know Yang Bing's situation before, and said comfortingly, "Our eyes are all fine, everything is over."

Lin Cheng nodded, still looking a little terrified.

It wasn't until he saw Xu Zhuo and the others that Lin Cheng let out a long sigh of relief.For some reason, seeing Xu Zhuo's still indifferent expression, he felt a sense of peace of mind.

"Brother, I'm so worried." He said, "I couldn't touch anything just now, that feeling is too scary."

Sun Ze followed suit: "That's right, it looks like it's floating in the air, trying to catch it blind."

Xu Zhuo glanced at them, nodded and said nothing.

After this battle, he didn't say that his physical strength was completely insufficient, but he still consumed a lot, and even his face turned pale.

Seeing this, Gu Chengye took off his military black overcoat and put it on Xu Zhuo.

Lin Cheng: "?"

He glanced at Xu Zhuo, saw the other party's gaze sweeping over, quickly waved his hand and said it was okay.

At the moment the voice fell, the chips on the arms of all the subjects beeped.

[Congratulations to all the subjects who successfully passed the level. ]

[The emotional settlement report will be generated later, please wait patiently. ]

Simple two sentences.

Not even the name of the test site and the degree of difficulty.

Xu Zhuo glanced at Gu Chengye, and found that the other party's eyes happened to fall on him.

"Don't you think it's strange?" Gu Chengye asked abruptly.

"Ok?"

"It has been almost ten years since the siege was established." Gu Chengye said, "But in these days, you have only participated in more than ten trials."

As soon as this sentence came out, Xu Zhuo understood.He looked at Gu Chengye: "You mean, my adoptive parents must be hiding some secret, right?"

Gu Chengye nodded.

Xu Zhuo frowned slightly.

"How much do you remember about them?"

Xu Zhuo shook his head.

"I should have been in a coma for a long time after the final test." He said, "Sometimes I can vaguely hear some people's conversations, but I really can't hear them clearly."

As for how long he had been in a coma...even Xu Zhuo himself didn't know.

He was in a semi-comatose state every day, and he didn't even have the impression of the scientist couple.

In the end, when he came to his senses, the human race had already fallen, and even the scientist and his wife who saved his life were killed.

So at that time, he always felt that as long as he had a relationship with him, no matter who he was, he would be implicated.So after that, he wrapped up his heart more and more.

It seems that the only way to keep them safe is to stay away from everyone.

Over time, facing the cruelty and blood of the testing ground, he also became numb...

Gu Chengye suddenly grabbed his hand.

Xu Zhuo was taken aback.

Feeling the temperature of the other party, Xu Zhuo was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyelashes, and clasped ten fingers with Gu Chengye.

"However..." Xu Zhuo paused for a few seconds, "I remember the first time I went to the second area of ​​the besieged city, and I stayed in a room for a few days while waiting for the assignment."

"What environment?"

"There are a lot of machines, with chips and test tubes on one side." Xu Yao recalled, "In the middle, there is a small operation screen."

As soon as his words fell, Gu Chengye said, "The highest department of the supernatural organization."

This term is not unfamiliar.

In the siege, everything, whether it is daily work or various emergencies that need to be reported, the supernatural person needs to report to the highest department.

And Gu Chengye became one of the few employees in this department.

As for why he was suddenly sent to the second area of ​​the besieged city and became the chief of the investigation room, Xu Zhuo didn't know.

While thinking, they heard a faint movement by the door.

Xu Zhuo and Gu Chengye glanced at each other, and at the same time passed Lin Ze and looked there——

I saw changes in Yang Bing's limbs.

The electronic explosives tied to his body turned into blue data strips, and then together with the mechanical arm, gradually turned into particles and quickly dissipated in the air.

Xu Zhuo was about to step forward to check, when Yang Bing slowly raised his head.

Then, she shook her head at him.

"It's okay, there's no need to save it."

Yang Bing spoke neither fast nor slow, and could not hear any pain, "I couldn't go out in the first place, but now I can talk to you a few words, and I am content."

He paused for three or four seconds, and then asked: "Remember what I said in the first copy, my existence, or identity is a fusion NPC?"

Xu Zhuo hummed.

"This is a breakthrough for you." Yang Bing seemed to know what they planned, "As far as I know, I am not the only one who merged with NPCs."

"What do you mean?"

"To put it simply, on the eve of the establishment of the siege, that is, in the years after the end of the elite plan, the people of the supernatural organization have been studying how to control humans." Yang Bing said, "They tried injections, and tried through direct transformation or fusion of human beings, but no one knows whether it succeeds or not in the end.”

Xu Zhuo: "So the fusion NPC is also?"

"That's right." Yang Bing said, "I was placed here as a test subject—whether human beings can be used to the maximum extent, so as to save the cost of developing a test field for supernatural organizations."

At the same time, it is also a punishment.

At that time, after he rescued Xu Zhuo, he was imprisoned for three full years.

So that no one knows that he is still living in the besieged city, carrying out the so-called NPC transformation.

"You were released after that?"

Yang Bing nodded: "Yes."

"Time is running out, let me make a long story short." Yang Bing moved the remaining robotic arm, "The supernatural organization is not without holes, and the second-generation chip invented during the gap between the development and fusion of NPCs at that time can explain everything. "

"In the elite plan, the chips in your hands are the first batch, and they cannot fully monitor your actions. The second batch of chips, which is what humans have used so far, has the coding mechanism of the supernatural beings. They transmit the collected emotions directly into their brains through encoding... This means that, to a certain extent, supernatural beings and humans share something."

After saying this, Yang Bing looked at Xu Zhuo in front of him.

The reason why he knew this code was entirely because of the couple of scientists.

After adopting Xu Zhuo, they didn't have any fear of supernatural organizations because of Xu Zhuo.Instead, they sacrificed more and more to study the operating mechanism of the chip.

Although they were secretly killed by supernatural organizations after the implantation of human chips, the research done was not so far, so that after so many years, this hypothesis can be continuously optimized, and in the end, it has become the only one now. A breakthrough to save humanity.

"So you mean..." Xu Yan looked at him calmly, "Find out the loopholes in the chip, right?"

Yang Bing nodded: "Since supernatural beings can use chips to control us at will, is it possible that humans can reverse control and eventually become the masters of supernatural beings."

"This is a very bold guess, but for so many years in this testing field, every time I wake up, I think about this possibility." Yang Bing said, "The implantation of supernatural beings and human beings starts from the chip. From that moment on, a state of coexistence has actually been reached.”

"What you have to do is to find a way to shut it down. As long as you can shut down the chip, the ability user will be hindered in terms of logic application, thinking mechanism, and even action."

"This is equivalent to a robot. When the chip that controls thinking activities stops, it will stop completely." Yang Bing sighed, "I know it is still a fantasy to say so now."

This is indeed a very bold assumption.

After all, no one knows exactly what supernatural beings rely on, or in other words, what they rely on for logical operations in thinking or action.

Acting rashly will only increase the risk.

But just now, Xu Zhuo keenly captured a piece of information.

His gaze swept over his own chip, and then landed on Gu Chengye's arm: "The first generation chip?"

Yang Bing made a "hmm" sound, and his body was gradually surrounded by blue data strips: "The chip implanted by the Elite Project is not perfect."

Gu Chengye thought for a few seconds, then recalled: "When it was planned, the chip was indeed only read in the testing field."

"Yes." Yang Bing looked at Gu Chengye, his eyes darkened for some reason, "The first-generation chip cannot be traced, and it is also limited by the system, which has high requirements for the location, and indeed has certain limitations. "

"So this is considered a loophole." Xu Zhuo said, "They can't track our current actions."

"It's true that you can think so."

Xu Zhuo listened silently.

At this moment, Gu Chengye's chip lighted up faintly, and a string of small characters appeared.

"News from 2305." Gu Chengye lowered his voice and said in Xu Zhuo's ear, "Let's go back to the original screen and wait for the supernatural organization to open the exit channel."

Xu Zhuo hummed lightly.

It seems that they don't have much time to stay here.

Before leaving, Xu Zhuo turned to look at Yang Bing, something flashed in his cold eyes, as if he hesitated to speak.After a few seconds, he asked, "Can we go together?"

Yang Bing was slightly taken aback.

After a while, he smiled and shook his head again: "I can't go, fusion NPCs are not human beings, so I can't go."

Xu Zhuo stared at him for a few seconds.

He was never the type to show his emotions. After hearing Yang Bing's answer, he didn't say anything, turned around and walked towards the other side of the corridor.

But after walking a few steps, he stopped.

"Don't worry." Xu Zhuo said suddenly.

Yang Bing was stunned for a moment, and his breathing became short of breath.

"Hmm..." Yang Bing murmured at the moment when the last data strip was covered, "It's up to you..."

***

Following Gu Chengye back to the original ninth floor, Xu Zhuo remained silent.

He pursed his lips tightly, as if thinking about something.

The subjects for this scene hadn't been assembled yet, Lin Cheng and Sun Ze were busy looking for survivors from the ruins on each floor.

So Xu Zhuo and Gu Chengye decided to go to the operating screen first to see if they could contact 2305.

It was very quiet all the way.

After stepping over the beam that fell to the ground, Xu Zhuo seemed to have lost his footing and supported the wall.

"It's okay." Xu Zhuo said, "Maybe I'm just tired."

Gu Chengye looked at him for a few seconds, then stretched out his hand and said, "Let's go together."

He was standing not far from Xu Zhuo, and there were still bricks, rubble and endless ruins behind him.But for some reason, from the moment he took off his coat, leaving only a single shirt, he almost always faced Xu Zhuo, as if he was covering something.

——It is indeed a concealment.

Gu Chengye couldn't bear to look at Xu Zhuo's shoulders anymore. These traces left by the last test were only seen once, and they repeatedly surfaced in his mind, lingering.

And the other party will definitely be the same as him.

Back then, after Gu Chengye joined the supernatural organization, he knew he was looking for someone.For this reason, he searched all places in the besieged city, including the black market, including the testing ground.

But there's never a place to hide here.

His purpose was seen through, and he was warned, punished, and even punished countless times by supernatural organizations, but he still did not stop searching.

Under almost masochistic tossing, he suffered the heaviest punishment in the organization—the scars from electric shocks and whipping started from his back and spread all the way to his lower back, making him unable to walk or stand for several days.

The reason for the punishment is also very simple.

That was a copy of Sunset City not so long ago.

He quietly helped Xu Zhuo.

At the most critical moment, he left important customs clearance clues in the envelope.

And at the end, ignoring the request of the organization to silence her, she came to the bushes to meet Xu Zhuo, completely breaking that cycle.

At that time, Gu Chengye didn't know the reason.

It may also feel strange.

They are obviously hostile to each other, and they are incompatible, like opposites on parallel lines that will never meet, but from a certain moment, they quietly intersect together.

He originally thought that this life was like the city of sunset, starting from the starting point countless times, reaching the end point with nothing, and then starting again...without beginning and end, it started again and again.

Fortunately, this is not an endless cycle.

After wandering around for a while, he finally found him.

The author has something to say: It is expected to end on the weekend, and I will try to write as fast as possible~
