Chapter 390 The Destroyed City


Chapter 390 Destroyed City

The scorching and pungent smoke made Luo Xi open his eyes.

What follows is the ultimate pain.

The fingers seem to be burning, and so are the arms.

The skin was burned by high temperature like barbecue meat in a barbecue restaurant. The flesh changed color and hardened and oil was emitted. As a result, the oil was ignited and an open flame was formed.

Have you been burned?

Even so, Luo Xi was still not panicked. He suppressed this unimaginable pain and tried to stand up.

Outside, it was like purgatory.

This should be a building, a high-rise building, at least more than fifty meters from the ground.

During the process of walking to the window, Luo Xi spent a lot of physical strength and willpower, because the surroundings were scorching, as if they were in an oven, which left his body on the edge of being roasted. The outer skin had long been broken, and the skin and muscle tissue were also destroyed. Every step he took, his skin and blood would stick to the ground.

It looks shocking.

After walking outside, Luo Xi saw the huge sun and the unimaginable heat, and everything in front of him seemed to be burning. The city outside, every building, every car, every tree on the roadside

This is a city destroyed by some kind of terrifying heat and flames.

Luo Xi is not the only "living person" in the city.

Outside, you can hear a lot of screams.

On the way, a man ran out of a burning car screaming. He himself was like a fireman, running and screaming, trying to find a place to extinguish the terrifying flames on his body, but it was obvious that everything was in vain.

After running out for more than ten meters, this man fell to the ground in despair.

On the street, there are more of the human bodies that have been burned.

Too many.

Some people hugged and snuggled each other before they died, maintaining their previous posture, but their bodies had been burned to charcoal, and there were still despair and pain on their faces. Many of them had their mouths wide open, as if they were shouting silently.

This is not a city, it is hell.

Only in hell can this kind of scene be there.

Luo Xi was still trying to keep calm under great pain, but there seemed to be extremely powerful mental power here, which made Luo Xi feel like there were many sharp needles stirring in his head all the time.

That kind of pain is enough to make people go crazy in an instant.

"What happened? Why didn't I die?" Luo Xi also became a little dazed under the huge mental pain and physical pain.

He even forgot who he was and what he was doing before.

Naturally, I don’t know what’s going on now, and I’m in a trance state.

Suddenly, footsteps came from behind. Luo Xi turned around and looked back after hearing this.

Behind me, there was a person standing.

A girl.

It looks familiar.

In an instant, memories emerged.

Luo Xi's eyes, which were originally a little confused and dazed, gradually became clear and firm.

"Zhou Ya. Oh no, I should call you, Wei Si."

The girl who suddenly appeared was Zhou Ya.

In other words, it is something that looks the same as Zhou Ya.

Because Luo Xi knew that Wei Si was not a human, it was just a kind of artificial digital life, an artificial intelligence, and even, it can be understood as a piece of code.

Therefore, it is difficult to describe what the other party is very accurately. In fact, we can directly use "things" to describe Wei Si.

"To be precise, Wei Si is just abbreviation, which means V4, and the full name of V4 is Voyager, which means a voyager. In addition, I have evolved to the fourth generation, so it is called V4," Zhou Ya is introducing herself seriously.

The tone was calm, like a talking doll. Or, it is the same as the robots that people recognize in the traditional sense.

With obvious stereotypes.

But soon, Zhou Ya burst out with a smirk, and the expression on her face was very exciting and vivid, and she could not tell that she was a robot or something inhuman.

"It's a bit difficult to speak in that tone. Luo Xi, it's better for us to communicate normally, what do you think?" Zhou Ya looked like a young and beautiful and sunny girl.

But in Luo Xi's eyes, no matter how fake the other party disguises or acts, it is still fake.

Moreover, there will be a more terrifying strange feeling.

"It's up to you." Luo Xi looked around and said, "Is this the real world?"

Zhou Ya clapped her hands: "Sure enough, she is a senior engineer and an elite human being. She can board the 'Ark' with her body. From the beginning, I shouldn't underestimate you. You are different from other humans. Even if you lose most of your memories, you still have unimaginable insights. This is a simulation of the real world."

At this moment, the smile on Zhou Ya's face was very strange.

"Luo Xi, you are actually doing something meaningless, and you are on a wrong path. You don't remember what happened or know the truth. You just use some fragmented memories to piece together a truth you think you think, but in fact, that's not the truth." Zhou Ya sighed, and her tone became very sincere again.

"Then what is the truth?" Luo Xi was unmoved.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

"The truth is that the real world is facing the sun crisis and is destined to be destroyed. Therefore, the top elites of mankind have created me, because only I can build the "Ark" that can continue human civilization, and, with the fire of mankind, escape from this destroyed home. What you see is my simulation of the real world, but it is also the "history" that has happened in reality. So, the truth is that I am not the kind of villain you think. On the contrary, I am the navigator of the "Ark", and only I can drive the "Ark" and reach the new home chosen by mankind."

Zhou Ya was explaining very seriously.

As a result, Luo Xi smiled.

Even though the smile pulled the burnt skin and muscles, causing huge pain, Luo Xi was laughing.

"Wei Si, you forgot that I can see through any lies. In addition, your acting skills when lying are really not satisfactory."

As soon as Luo Xi finished speaking, Wei Si's expression on the opposite side suddenly became ferocious.

"Luo Xi, I didn't deceive you. What I said is true."

It can be seen that Wei Si is very angry.

Luo Xi still shook his head: "I did not deny what you just said. Perhaps the real world and our homeland were indeed destroyed, but it is definitely not the reason why you use your abilities to create a false world to imprison us all. You are avoiding the most important things."

Zhou Ya narrowed her eyes and said, "The route of the 'Ark' has not changed. We are still on the way to our new home. However, this is a very long process. Normal humans, even from birth to old age and death, even measured by the lifespan of the longest-lived person of humanity, cannot reach the new home alive. Therefore, they can only use the method of digital life to store memory and consciousness in the core memory of the 'Ark'. You can understand it as a supercomputer. I have the authorized documents of the coalition government to build a virtual reality world and temporarily let people live in it."

While talking, Zhou Ya actually took out a stack of documents and handed them over.

After expanding, these documents seem to be certified authorization documents, including content, format, and special electronic seals.

"So, everything I do is legal. The existence of the virtual world is originally the plan of the coalition government. I am just the implementer of the plan, but you are a disruptor. You use various means to destroy the normal virtual world and turn it into a "day of imprisonment", bringing fear and torture to everyone, as well as endless despair. Luo Xi, you are the initiator of all this, you are the evil and villain"

Zhou Ya, or Wei Si, has very severe accusations.

And logically speaking, it makes sense, especially the other party has taken out a lot of "real evidence" and directly described itself as a victim of upholding justice and legal principles, and beat Luo Xi into a demon who breaks rules and anti-humanity.

"I believe that you also find the truth that happened in the memories of some people. Otherwise, who do you think will have the ability to imprison so many people in a virtual world? After all, the virtual world needs to be supported by 'hardware', and hardware is all artificial things. The world's devastating disaster caused by the movement of celestial bodies, and human response strategy is the 'Ark Plan'. I am the execution of this plan, and you are just a madman, a delusional person who destroys this plan."

"Luckily, it's not too late for you to look back now. I'm planning to restart the virtual world and fix the damage you've caused before as much as possible, but this matter needs your help."

Zhou Ya sighed, like a real savior.

"How can I help you?" Luo Xi asked, and he seemed a little moved.

"The flight plan of the Ark is fixed, and there is almost no need for human interference in the entire process. However, the Ark, including the core and power system, requires maintenance personnel to regularly inspect and maintain. The restart mechanism cannot be initiated from the inside and requires manual operation from the outside. Therefore, as a maintenance engineer, you need to leave here and go to the outside, that is, to restart the core in the 'Ark'." Wei Si took out another document at this time.

However, this is identity information.

It says "Fourth-level system engineer: Luo Xi", with photos and information, including personal information such as ethnicity, hometown, identity ID and other personal information.

"You just said that humans are stored in the core in the form of digital life, so how can I enter the ark in reality?" Luo Xi asked a question at this time.

Wei Si immediately answered: "I just said that the Ark, including the core and power system, all require maintenance personnel to regularly inspect and maintain, so some engineers boarded the spacecraft and rely on special "survival and hibernation" equipment to preserve their bodies. When they need to work, they will activate the "wake-up program". "

"In other words, I am in the ark, have a body?" Luo Xi narrowed his eyes and asked back.
