Synthesis of Terror: On the One Thousand and One Ways of Death of the Protagonist

The others didn't seem to notice David's movements, and continued to walk forward. Qin Yue paused, but still walked to David's side.

David stretched out his hand and tapped it lightly on the wall, and a layer of jelly stuck to his hand. David separated his thumb and index finger, looked at the jelly that was stretched into thin sheets, and said softly: " really interesting."

He turned his head and looked at Qin Yue, a strange light flashed in his eyes: "Isn't it?"

Qin Yue froze for a moment, with a strange look on her face: "What?"

A smile appeared on David's face, he turned his head, and clicked a few times on the slime-covered wall.

There was only a slight buzzing sound, and the dark passage lit up, and the entire passage was filled with dots of light.

Those rays of light are connected together to form a detector-like thing, and it makes a strange sound.

In this highly technologically advanced future world, Qin Yue couldn't help being a little afraid of all the unknown things she didn't understand. She thought of her mission this time, the thing that came here could be that thing called Alien, right?

Qin Yue took out the particle knife inserted in the weapon holster on her thigh, held it in her hand, and looked into the distance warily.

People who had already gone away heard the movement here, and rushed back one after another. They called Qin Yue and David's names as they walked, and asked them what happened.

A few people walked around the corner and were stunned when they saw the scene here. What's going on?

Not far away, light and shadows formed by several particles ran over. Those lights and shadows were extremely tall, and their shape was no different from that of a human being, except that they seemed to be wearing helmets on their heads, so they couldn't see their original faces clearly.

Those particle lights and shadows are not phantoms, and Qin Yue didn't know if they were harmful, so she didn't dare to touch them, so she stepped aside, seeing David still standing there, Qin Yue's heart moved, and she stretched out her hand to pull him over .

As a result, Qin Yue didn't say that David was pulling over. Those figures passed through David's body. Qin Yue was pulling David's arm, and some of them passed through her arm.

Qin Yue only felt a chill in her arm, as if something had penetrated into her body and flowed away quickly along the blood.

Qin Yue was startled, felt it carefully, but found nothing wrong, but the feeling of having a foreign object in her body just now was so real... Qin Yue didn't continue to think deeply, and was going to return to the spaceship later. check carefully.

David was just passed through by those particle lights and shadows, and I don't know if there is anything wrong. Qin Yue glanced at him and found that David's expression did not change in any way. Human beings are different, probably don't feel anything.

David seemed to be aware of Qin Yue's gaze, and turned to look at her. Qin Yue silently withdrew the hand that was still on David's arm, and turned her head to look forward as if nothing had happened.

David: "..."

A group of people followed those lights and shadows, wanting to see where they were going. Qin Yue was afraid of any danger, so she kept holding the particle knife in her hand and did not let go.

Those lights and shadows staggered and ran forward, as if something terrible was chasing behind them, everyone's spirits were also tensed by the movements of these lights and shadows, no one spoke, and no sound was heard except footsteps.

This kind of atmosphere makes people feel tense for no reason. In this strange environment, facing unknown creatures that may appear, everyone's heart is tense. If it weren't for the news from the Prometheus , the life detector did not find other life forms except for a few of them, and these people were afraid that they would not dare to continue exploring.

The light shadow that just passed through David's body fell at the corner and never got up again. Several people waited for a few minutes and found the light shadow lying there motionless. It seemed to be dead?

Light and shadow will die too?

Now that they were looking at each other and slowly approaching the light and shadow, the beams of the flashlights gathered together, illuminating that space, and when they saw the things around the light and shadow, everyone gasped in unison.

It was a corpse, and its figure was exactly the same as the light and shadow lying beside it just now.

"My God, we found them!"

Elizabeth exclaimed, her expression was agitated, wishing she could pounce on the corpse and caress it carefully.

Qin Yue frowned slightly, is this the engineer Elizabeth mentioned?The so-called creature that created humans?

Where did she see it?

Qin Yue couldn't figure it out, and Elizabeth and Charlie obviously didn't intend to explain to her. They squatted down, and the light of the flashlight shone on the corpse, examining it carefully.

The place where the body fell seemed to be next to a door, and its head was gone. Looking at where it was lying down, the head probably fell on the other side of the door.

The top of the door was covered with densely packed words, and several people didn't know this kind of words. They turned their eyes to David, who had never made a sound: "David, can you understand these words?"

David held up the flashlight, pointed at the words on the wall, and replied ambiguously: "Maybe."

Qin Yue is not interested in a corpse that has been dead for an unknown number of years, even if this corpse may be the so-called engineer who created human beings.

Her gaze moved to those words, and she froze for a moment.

It turned out to be hieroglyphs, and what was even more weird was that she seemed to recognize these characters.

Isn't Ford a medical worker?Why did she know these characters that even Elizabeth and Charles, two archaeologists, didn't know?

Qin Yue suddenly felt that she had occupied this body for five years, but she didn't know anything about the original body.

Looking carefully at these words, she really couldn't recognize some obscure parts, so she skipped them, pieced them together, and recognized all the things on it.

Qin Yue's face changed a few times when she saw the content described in the text. This so-called ruins is actually a spaceship? ! ! !

The words on the door seemed to describe what they were studying, and Qin Yue didn't know those words, so she felt a little uneasy, and subconsciously glanced at David.

He was still studying the writing on the door seriously, and that almost pious appearance made Qin Yue feel absurd that he was worshiping a god.

Do androids also believe in gods?

If so, who do they believe in?Made them human, or something else?

The exploration team had a disagreement, and Fefelt was unwilling to stay any longer. He had a quarrel with Elizabeth, expressing that he did not want to stay here any longer and wanted to leave first.

He talked to Mirban, and the two left here together.

At this time, there are only four people left in front of the door, Qin Yue, David, Charlie and Elizabeth.

Qin Yue saw David take out a ladder from his backpack and put it on the wall. He climbed up and continued to study the writing on the door.

Qin Yue thought about it, and wanted to climb up, but David's ladder could only hold one person, and as a medical staff, her backpack was full of medical equipment and medicines.

Qin Yue: "..."

Why did she bring these things here!

Qin Yue, who had no ladder, could only stay below, looking up at David, while Elizabeth and Charlie's conversation could be heard in her ears.

"The body was dead for about 2000 years."

"The protective clothing they wear is many times more advanced than what we wear. Their technology reached this level 2000 years ago, which is really amazing!"

Qin Yue: "..."

If the guess of the two of them is true, and they created human beings, what's so special about a set of protective clothing that surpassed their current technology thousands of years ago?

David clicked on it a few times, and Qin Yue heard a slight roar, her face changed slightly, and she looked at David who was quietly staying on the ladder.

What is he doing again?

David looked down at Qin Yue, his face was hidden in the darkness, and the expression on his face could not be seen clearly, Qin Yue heard David's deep voice from above: "I opened the door."

The helmets of Elizabeth and Charlie had been taken off a long time ago, and they were very close to the door. David opened the door without authorization, which was extremely dangerous for them, and no one knew what was behind the door.

From the very beginning of the birth of the cyborg, the rule of not being allowed to harm human beings has been set in the program. Did David do this intentionally or unintentionally?

The door opened slowly, and the smoke and dust choked both Elizabeth and Charlie coughing. David's voice came from afar, with a hint of indifference: "I'm sorry."

Qin Yue fell silent, her expression was gloomy, the detection ball buzzed into the door, and in the darkness, she vaguely saw a huge stone statue standing in the center.

Elizabeth and Charlie didn't pay attention to the stone statue. They saw the severed head of the engineer right next to the door. They carefully picked up the head and put it in the isolation box they carried with them.

"We're going to bring this back."

Seeing Qin Yue looking at her, Elizabeth explained, "This may help us."

Qin Yue nodded, Elizabeth and the others came here for the sake of the so-called engineer. How could they give up such a precious thing?

David walked in, and the flashlight in his hand shone on the stone statue: "It's a great thing."

He said that his eyes did not stay on the stone statue, but turned to another direction.

Qin Yue followed his gaze and saw densely packed black jars piled up in the place illuminated by the flashlight.

Those jars were covered with a tan goo that looked disgusting.

Qin Yue frowned, thinking of the words on the door, and seeing these inexplicable pots, she always felt something was wrong, no one knew what those so-called engineers had researched.

Although the detectors say that there is no sign of life here, the technology of these engineers is countless times superior to that of humans. If they want to hide something, can human instruments really detect it?

This place looked like a hall, surrounded by exquisite murals. Qin Yue raised her head and looked at the mural in the center above her head. It seemed to be a weird creature carved on it.

Qin Yue stared at the mural, and she had a wonderful feeling that the creature in this mural should be the object of her mission this time.

Qin Yue didn't know where this feeling came from, it was just a strange intuition.

Want to get its love?

This task is really challenging.

Not allowing Qin Yue to think too much, a message came from the spaceship that a storm was coming, and the silicide in the storm was enough to destroy their protective clothing. The captain ordered them to return immediately.

"I will close the hatch in 15 minutes."

A cold female voice came out from the intercom, Qin Yue's eyes widened: Is the captain a woman?

Time was running out, and several people ran outside immediately. David was a step behind and put something into his backpack.

Out of the corner of Qin Yue's eyes, she glanced at David's movements, paused, and shouted to him: "David, hurry up."

"coming."

said David, picking up his backpack and running towards them.

In fact, Qin Yue's reminder just now was superfluous, David was a bionic man, his speed was very fast, he quickly overtook them, and took the lead in running forward.

Qin Yue: "Hehe."

Qin Yue felt that her luck was not very good. The three of them had already disappeared without a trace, but she tripped over something and fell heavily on the ground.

When she landed on the ground, Qin Yue's hand touched a bump on the wall, she just felt the ground below her sinking, Qin Yue was in a bad mood and wanted to get up, but before she could do anything , the body fell downwards along with the ground.

Feeling a strong sense of weightlessness, Qin Yue let out a muffled snort, and her face instantly turned pale.

After an indeterminate amount of time, the extreme speed of falling became calmer and stopped slowly. The surroundings were pitch black, except for the light of the flashlight on Qin Yue's body, there was no light at all.

After the buzzing sound of the communicator on her body, there was no more sound coming out.

Broken at this time?

Qin Yue felt bitter in her heart. In such a strange place, without the communicator, how would she go out?

Landing in such a place, Qin Yue didn't rush forward. She took an inventory of her equipment. In addition to medical equipment and some medicines, she also had a laser gun and a particle knife. There is nothing superfluous.

They came in just to explore, and did not prepare food and water. Now that the storm is coming, no one knows when the storm will stop. Even if someone comes to her, they don't know how long it will be.

How long can she survive without food and water?

Qin Yue took a look at the nutrient solution in the medical box, and felt a little more at ease. With these things, at least she can last for a while longer.

The flashlights in the future world are naturally different from those in her era. Although the names are all flashlights, the one in her hand can be used continuously for a year. There is no need to worry about running out of energy in a short period of time, and there is no problem of light source.

Should I stay here and wait for rescue, or find a way out by myself?

After thinking about it, Qin Yue decisively chose the second option.

If she really wanted to save her, the life detector could find her, but if she didn't want to find her, it would be useless for her to wait until she became a bone.

After tidying up the equipment on the ground and carrying it on her back, Qin Yue chose a direction and walked forward.

The place she fell into was also similar to what a group of them walked through just now. It was a long passage with no end in sight. The difference was that the wall she touched was made of metal, not like it was on it just now. That stone touch on that layer.

Qin Yue recalled what was written on the door. This ruin-like thing was a spaceship.

Since it is a spaceship, it is not surprising that it has a metallic texture.

This road seemed to have no end in sight, and Qin Yue didn't know how far she had traveled. Carrying such heavy equipment on her back, her body didn't feel a trace of fatigue. Qin Yue felt a strange feeling in her heart.

Is it possible that the human body will be so strong in the future?

Qin Yue thought of those high-tech things, even things like bionic humans can be created, and it is only a matter of minutes to transform human physical fitness.

In the current situation, it is better to have a strong body than a weak body that is out of breath after a few steps.

On this side, Qin Yue is heading towards an unknown direction in the dark passage, and on the other side, several people on the Prometheus have already fallen out.

Elizabeth clamored to find Qin Yue, who had lost contact with her, but Captain Weeks mercilessly rejected Elizabeth's request, and the reasons she gave were impeccable.

"Feifelt and Mirban have not returned either."

There was no expression on the blond beauty's face: "There is no danger in there. We will enter it after the storm stops, and maybe we will find her then."

When Weeks said that there was no danger there, a strange look appeared in David's eyes. He seemed to have thought of something, but he remained silent without making a sound.

Elizabeth was silenced by Weeks' words. Thinking of Qin Yue whose whereabouts were unknown, Elizabeth's face was full of worry. Charlie stood aside and comforted Elizabeth softly.

David looked at the two snuggled together, lowered his head, hiding the emotion in his eyes.

Elizabeth didn't worry for too long, so she went to the laboratory with Charlie to study the head of the engineer brought back.

David did not follow, but returned to his cabin, closed the door, and shielded the monitor skillfully. David opened his backpack and took out the jar brought back from the ruins.

The surface of the jar was already covered with black mucus, and David had a smile on his face as he reached out to touch the soft jelly.

"Organic matter."

Thinking of what was recorded on the door, the smile on David's face deepened.

"Are there any gods who created human beings?"

He looked at the black substance stained on his hands, and a trace of fanaticism slowly appeared in his eyes.
