Chapter 222 The Truth
After the last deep dive, Lapis finally spoke again.
It said: "—Song Shi, prepare to dive deeply."
Song Shi raised his head and looked at the sphere floating over.
Unexpectedly, the other party's voice was extremely calm, with almost no trace of the confusion and trance from last night.
——That is not a symbolic emotion simulated through a voice program.
Song Shi could feel that the other party's mentality was indeed much calmer at the moment.
"I am, after all, an omnic that has lived for many years." As if he guessed what the other party was thinking, Lapis Lazuli paused and directly projected the humanoid interactive interface. The middle-aged man on it People looked at the young man and said: "It won't be so long."
Is this "figured out"?
Song Shi raised his eyebrows.
He didn't say anything else, got up and walked towards the workroom.
After eleven consecutive days of full attendance, both parties were already familiar with the process of deep diving. Song Shi lay down in the deep diving cabin, and the lapis lazuli stone turned into a necklace and wrapped around the former's right hand.
“Wait a moment.”
The moment the hatch was about to close, Song Shi suddenly spoke.
“Do you have any clues about that F052?”
"It knows me. It must know me."
"I heard it and saw it. It said 'Long time no see' to me. It was definitely not an illusion." The hatch stopped in mid-air, and a long while passed. , Lapis Lazuli said: "I searched the information and found that F052 was active for a long time. It was not until it was hit hard in the middle and late stages of the Free Revolution that it disappeared."
"It came into contact with many people and omnics, but There is no object that matches me. At least not in the current database. We do not rule out the possibility that someone has specifically deleted it."
"Your information has been specifically deleted." Song Shi said thoughtfully. Nodding: "Where is the database on the Enlightened One's side?"
After talking with him on the day he got [Liaoyuan], Chakoluo had someone provide him with a database, which contains all the Enlightened One's information on The records and materials of "omnics", as a powerful force that dares to confront the corporate alliance head-on and survive defeat, contain some high-security information.
Song Shi browsed through it briefly, pulled out some information that was not suitable for exposure, and stuffed the rest into Lapis Lazuli.
"No." Lapis Lazuli has of course browsed this database. The "middle-aged man" shook his head, showing a trace of extremely human fatigue: "It doesn't matter, there is no need to worry about this anymore. At present, The first task is to conquer the 'Duel Field' in the last two days. "
"Didn't you say that your intuition tells you that the truth is here? "
< br>This time the deep dive seemed to be particularly long.
The gleaming spiral river of pixels draws visitors into it, twisting and turning randomly. The blurred blocks of color overlap each other, making it dazzling and painful to see.
A delicate tingling sensation rushed along the network of nerves and chemical transmitters, and a cold suffocation suddenly rushed into the stiff nasal cavity, and a firework was set off with a bang, as if the brain was being turned into paste.
Then, a red-gold flame lit up, burning away all the foreign feeling!
"Huh."
Song Shi raised his eyes, the redness in his pupils disappeared for a moment, he looked around: "This is it"
The lapis lazuli stone next to him was He paused for a few breaths in the air, and finally seemed to have calmed down, and the lines all over his body began to shine and flow again.
Almost at the moment of awakening, its "sight" - an observation module composed of twelve prosthetic eyes, was simultaneously directed forward.
The sea of sand is as pure as ever, with pure golden color everywhere, and the dry hot wind blows up and passes by from all directions.
Only this time, there is no blurry auditorium in the sky, nor is there any aberrant omnic that has been waiting for a long time.
A single-open, regular-sized alloy door floats silently in the sea of sand.
Right in front of Song Shi and Lapis Lazuli.
"This door is an encrypted springboard program." Lapis scanned the door, providing information.
Song Shi turned his right hand over, and the pass he got yesterday appeared between his index finger and middle finger, and the surface was slightly hot. "Then let's go. The people on the other side have asked us to come over." Song Shi said briskly and laughed: "We are already here, do we still need to do a risk assessment and then not go in?"
With that said, before Lapis Lazuli could say anything else, he took a few steps forward, swiped the pass on the door lock, and the entire door opened silently.
After both parties stepped into the door at the same time, after a brief blur, the surrounding environment suddenly changed.
The original desert disappeared and was replaced by a huge square.
Looking up, there are broken and weathered marble columns, circuit cables broken in two and randomly swept in the corners, and a giant display screen suspended in the sky. The screen is broken, pitch black, and crumbling.
Even the square surface of the ground, which is difficult to identify the specific material but is obviously not naturally generated, is covered with a layer of dust that is not too shallow.
Weird and rundown.
However, at this moment, Song Shi and Lapis Lazuli did not pay any attention to the square.
They raised their heads at the same time and looked forward -
From the center of the square, there was a huge silhouette standing.
That is a "giant tree" made of iron.
The roots of steel penetrated deeply into the square and spread to all sides, causing the nearby ground to burst in upheaval.
Above the root system, the iron branches and leaves spread out wantonly. They were messy, completely entangled and confused, growing upward while devouring and biting each other. Even with Lapis Lazuli's three-dimensional space analysis ability, for a while, It is also difficult to completely dismantle and build a complete model.
The lead-gray tree crowns spread out, and iron filings continued to fly in the square.
Under the cold color of the metal, these branches are as ferocious as thorns, or even more so.
Just looking at it will give people a vague tingling feeling.
——But among these thorn-like branches, there is a humanoid outline.
"This is."
Song Shi's pupils opened slightly, as if he was surprised or excited.
"Yao, Yao" Lapis Lazuli's reaction was far beyond this. At this moment, the light patterns all over his body flashed crazily, and even the theoretically constant simulated voice became trembling: "Yao"
On the trunk of the giant tree, wrapped in countless iron thorns, a human figure whose body is completely made of machinery, but most of which is broken and missing, seems to have known everything for a long time. Its head has been raised and staring. Ahead.
Omnics.
Obviously it was just their first meeting, but the moment they saw each other, Song Shi and Lapis Lazuli inexplicably had the same thought in their hearts.
——This human form in front of me, this incomplete human form entangled with iron spines.
It is, [Yao Xing Three]!
With Song Shi's knowledge, the moment he noticed this idea, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
“First meeting.”
Looking at the young man first.
"Long time no see."
He paused again on the sphere next to him.
Eventually.
The sight of this bound omnic encompasses both sides.
It said:
"——I've finally waited for you."
