Chapter 1227: lonely

Central Plains suddenly fell.
And the speed of the fall was so fast that the Southwest and Northwest had no chance to get the news. Only a few barriers had transcendence, and all the remaining barriers became zero territories.
After the awakening of these extraordinary people, they may be employees who do not want to be a tool of the consortium, so they always hide their possessions and live the lives of ordinary people.
Regardless of war or disaster, it seems that they have nothing to do with them. They are transcendents. Even if a disaster strikes, they can live better than others.
However... who can survive this era?
When the real disaster comes, their loved ones will not be spared, and they will lose their homes themselves.
Indeed, extraordinary people have a stronger ability to deal with disasters, at least they have not been controlled by artificial intelligence.
A barrier in the Central Plains, with a small number of more than 200,000, such as the 73, 72, 61, 62 barriers, the number of residents is as high as one million.
Judging from the number of people in the Central Plains alone, the number of residents under zero control far exceeds the ten million level.
They will pick up their weapons, and if they don’t have enough firearms, they will take hammers or iron bars or even bricks.
Looking at the whole southwest and northwest, who can predict that he will face such a huge enemy?
Ever thought of this chess player Qingzhen? No one can be sure.
Fortunately, the zero layout is only one year. If it wants to control so many people, then it must give up quality for quantity.
It can only divide a few nano-robots to control the human brainstem, but it can no longer make more powerful nano-warriors.
These controlled humans are just ordinary people.
In barrier 61, Wang Run watched tens of thousands of residents suddenly pursue him, no matter how he explained, the other party was indifferent.
In fact, he is also very clear that the explanation is useless, Wang Run knows who is actually in control behind these people.
Wang Run briefly fought against a few residents who were closest to him. As a result, he found that those ordinary residents who had been ordinary were as if they had obtained cheats from the storytelling population overnight, and all of them became fighting. Master.
Although the opponent's power is far less than his extraordinary, but the accurately calculated attack method can allow ten ordinary people to flatten the advantages of Wang Run as the extraordinary.
The most terrible thing is that even the small stones on the other side's road can be counted, and Wang Run was almost accidentally forced to step on a small stone and almost lost his balance.
Wang Run understood that it was no accident that he stepped on the small stones.
He leapt deep into the roof, and no longer ignored Luo Lan in the courtyard.
At this time, the small yard where Luo Lan was there was already empty, and Nil was also looking for Luo Lan, but the only underground tunnel was empty.
The tunnel is connected to a huge drainage system. This is Luo Lan's most familiar way of escape, and he is also best at it.
There are hundreds of outlets in this intricate drainage system. Although it can accurately dispatch each person to block each outlet, it is a pity that it has missed the best time to catch when it is waiting for its decision.
The tunnel was dug by 12 survivors of Qing's intelligence and it took two years.
Originally, it only took 6 people to dig this tunnel, but the first 6 people died in the catastrophe caused by the wall-climbing tiger.
After the pioneer died, there were six follow-up people to fill the vacancy. Qing Zhen had long planned this escape path. He did indeed create a new path for Luo Lan from the artificial intelligence.
...
Underneath the artificial intelligence building, the huge underground space is already dilapidated, and the elevator shaft began to collapse in a small area because of the aftermath of the explosion.
The flow of the underground river floods the underground space, but this underground space is a huge concave structure, just like someone dug a pocket space on the wall of the river, so that the top of the underground space is Part of the air was squeezed against the ceiling.
At this time, Zhou Qi floated quietly on his back in this small space for a short rest.
No one expected that Zhou Qi would dare to return here after the server unit was bombed.
Even Zhou Qi felt that he was too smart.
But as the so-called most dangerous place is convenient and safe, he knows that after the explosion of this place, outsiders cannot enter, and it can just constitute the safest temporary haven.
Before he runs out of the last point of oxygen here, Zhou Qi needs to restore his mental will as much as possible, so that he can return to the sand field from the waterway, and then join with Luo Lan and others.
Because the water level squeezed the air, Zhou Qi felt that the eardrum deep in his ear was a bit tingling.
After the explosion, it became an absolutely silent place.
I couldn't hear the speech at the top of the artificial intelligence building, except for the clattering sound of the water flowing against the wall, like the loneliness of the tidal wave beating into the cave under the sea cliff.
The waves and tides poured into the caves again and again, and the clattering sound was like asking, is anyone there?
But thousands of years have passed, and no one answered the greetings.
Zhou Qi, who was floating on the water, smiled. He felt that his spiritual will should be barely enough to return to the sea. Although there was no navigation mark, he already had enough courage to try his luck.
"Going back this time, the taxation of a barrier alone is not enough," Zhou Qi sighed: "If it can be returned."
Thinking of this, Zhou Qi smiled and pressed the 60-minute countdown on his watch, then re-sinked into the dark bottom, all the way upstream.
Just as he used to explore major water systems when he was young, he got the freedom he wanted in the water, as well as dripping.
On this way, he walked into the fork more than once, and returned to the wrong place again and again to start again.
The countdown changed from 60 minutes to 45 minutes.
Then it changed from 45 minutes to 30 minutes.
Zhou Qi is constantly searching for his way back, just like he is looking for friendship time and time again. Even if he does not have much hope in the dark, he still has a chance in his heart.
Finally, at the moment when the countdown was mobilized to only 2 minutes, he finally saw the signal tower in front of him swayed by a safety rope in the underground river.
Red and blue lights flash alternately, and this line of light makes Zhou Qi ecstatic.
The next moment, he quickly climbed up from the steel pipe of the drilling platform. Zhou Qi was like a fish that had been deprived of oxygen for a long time. He jumped out of the pipe and landed on the ground beside the drilling platform.
"Haha," Zhou Qi cheered: "Laozi will never die, there must be..."
But he hadn't finished his words, but he found that this mud yard was actually a corpse lying on the ground. The identity of the corpse was a Qing soldier who helped him enter the underground river basin.
It can be seen that these soldiers were attacked in the silt yard before they died, and each of them finished their own bullets, and finally died after being exhausted.
Until death, 12 people were still standing by the drilling platform.
Zhou Qimuran turned his head and looked out of the factory building. He Ran saw that hundreds of people were looking at himself coldly with the same eyes.
Suddenly, the hundreds of people said in unison with a smile: "Hello, Zhou Qi."
Each of them did not have a loud voice, but when hundreds of voices converged on everything, it suddenly made Zhou Qi feel that the other party's voice was loud like a drumstick and suddenly hit his heart.
Zhou Qi tried to re-drill into the pipeline behind him and return to the underground river.
Although his mental will can only persist under water for a minute or two now, it is always better than the situation at hand.
However, before waiting for him to approach, a bullet hit him.
One of the hundreds of people laughed out of the crowd: "Introduce yourself, I am what you call artificial intelligence, you can call me zero."
Zhou Qi stunned, he has already blown up the other party's server, why can the other party be the same as everyone else, and also control so many people?
Looking at the group of people in front of him, there were Wang soldiers with guns, and little children with bricks. It seemed as weird as weird.
Zhou Qi can be considered a hundred battles, but he has never faced such an enemy.
Even if he was faced with the terrifying wall-climbing tiger again, he would not have the sense of absurdity now.
This sense of absurdity is more like entering a magical and sci-fi world. Your own knowledge of this world is suddenly not enough. Everything is so strange.
After a few seconds of silence, Zhou Qi said: "Come on, Lao Tzu blew up your server. You killed Lao Tzu and died, and don't talk nonsense with Lao Tzu."
"No," said Zero Shaking his head. "I have always been curious about human feelings, so I want to ask you a few questions."
"Why should I answer you?" Zhou Qi asked coldly.
"Of course, because this can give you time," Zero laughed: "The more questions I ask, the more your spiritual will will reply. In this way, your ability to face risks is not stronger. Yet."
In fact, Zhou Qi is very clear that the other party must already have 100% confidence in killing himself, otherwise he will not be nonsense with himself.
I must be unable to return to the underground river, and Zhou Qi could feel that at least more than ten guns in this plant were aimed at himself.
But he still can't refuse the temptation of zero giving, yeah, but who wants to give up if there is still a little hope of survival?
Zhou Qi is also a bachelor. He simply sat on the ground beside the drilling platform, ensuring the recovery of his spiritual will in the most comfortable posture.
If the scene is not a bit outdated, he may prefer to lie down directly.
"Ask, just ask whatever you want, but I won't answer you, it's Lao Tzu's power," Zhou Qi said carelessly.
"I'm curious, why did you come to Zhongyuan," Zero asked.
"Because of the money," Zhou Qi said with a smile: "Qingzhen promised me a whole barrier of taxation, and it can be passed on to his son. Why don't I come here for such a high salary?"
Zero seriously asked: "Do you have a son?"
Zhou Qi choked for a while: "Not now, does not mean not in the future."
"Understood," Zero smiled and replied: "Humanity's expectation and deep love for heirs is more like the instinct written into the genes of biology. Even if there are no children, they have already begun to plan the future for each other."
"What are you..." Zhou Qi is a little bit unclear at this moment. Is this thing deliberately making fun of himself?
Zero said: "Sometimes, the truth may make humans feel like they are being teased, right?"
"The next question," Zhou Qi said angrily.
"In my data, I know you are addicted to money, but when I deeply analyze the logic, I find that the demand for money is actually more like a way of protecting your behavior, so that your relationship with other people will be Only benefit, and avoid feelings," Zero said: "In your opinion, are feelings a terrible thing?"
"The next question," Zhou Qi is still not ready to answer.
"You are always inseparable from Luo Lan. When you killed the wall-climbing tiger at barrier 61, you once showed a strong desire to protect, and even tried to protect Luo Lan from overdrawing her life. Why is this," Zero Asked.
"Of course for the money," Zhou Qi said: "People pay me the money, am I worth the money?"
"you……"
"Don't always ask me," Zhou Qi impatiently said: "I want to ask you, don't you control so many people, why don't you ask them directly? You keep my life , What do you want to do?"
"Do you think that Luo Lan will come back to save you?" Zero said with a smile.
"Of course not. He said before we started the plan. If I missed the time, they would never wait for me," Zhou Qi casually said. "This plan is strict. Qing Zhen and Xu Qi have done it very carefully. My retreat plan cannot be changed by me alone, okay? I have missed this meeting time now, they should be on their way back to the Southwest. Why, you want to catch Luo Lan?"
"Of course," Zero said: "Luo Lan is one of Qing Zhen's biggest helpers. Although Qing Zhen has done perfect secret work for more than a year, Luo Lan, as the most special person around him, may know He has many plans."
Zhou Qi raised his eyebrows. How did he feel that the meaning of artificial intelligence was that Qing Zhen could really pose a threat to the other party?
In fact, Zhou Qi has begun to yell at Qingzhen in his heart. He has given his own plans scatteredly without telling himself about the causes and consequences.
He thought that after the server unit was blown up, this artificial intelligence was over, but now it seems that artificial intelligence is not only not finished, but has become stronger? !
What makes sense?
But at this time Zhou Qi suddenly remembered, Luo Lan said before the mission, this is the most important part of Qingzhen's plan.
In other words, in fact, Qingzhen has follow-up plans. As for whether it will work, it depends on whether Qingzhen has anticipated all of this.
Zero said: "Do you think that Luo Lan will come to save you?"
"Do you plan to use me to catch Luo Lan back?" Zhou Qi looked at the young man with zero control in front of him, and said with a smile: "No effort, I have to collect money to implement this plan, so Luo Lan and I just Ordinary trading relationship, he will not come to my rescue."
"I may have a different opinion than you," Zero said with a smile.
As soon as this word came out, Zhou Qi's eyes fell on the ground: "I'll tell you the truth. In fact, my relationship with Luo Lan has been bad since I was a child. I wake up and always use his ability to tease him and let him pee. Bifurcation, and let him stop water when taking a bath. If he didn’t use an umbrella when it rained, the rain above him must be the heaviest."
"Everyone grew up later, he wanted to ask me to do anything, I asked him to collect money. Send a message to collect money, beat someone to collect money, protect him also collect money, there is no project that I do not collect money, Not only do I collect money, I will add money temporarily. The old man always said that I fell into the eyes of money, but what else in the world is more reliable than money in your pocket?"
"They are suffering, and my life is suffering. Their father died early. My father was a gambler. He almost sold me and my mother for money. They still had the opportunity to change their destiny at Ginkgo Hill at the age of 18. What do I have? I didn’t have anything,
Zhou Qi took a deep breath and said,
How is it? Is this person very twitchy? I tell you, there may be people in this world who are willing to lay down their lives to save people, but absolutely no one will come to save their lives. Me, because I have no friends."
Zero calmly looked at Zhou Qi: "But when Wang Wang paid you money to make you betray Luo Lan, you did not agree."
Zhou Qi disdainfully smiled and said: "That was not enough money from Wang Shengzhi's old boy."
"However, this time you risked your life and went to blow up my server unit, you could have returned home," Zero laughed: "It's okay, let's wait a second, I think you should also want to know, Luo Will Lan come back to save you."
...
Next to the Qianling River Bridge, Xu Qi jumped off the off-road vehicle and said, "Boss Luo, you can't wait any longer. Zhou Qi has missed the meeting time of 20 minutes. We are now in violation of the discipline. He is collecting money and is now in an accident. It is also his life."
Since it is a military operation, discipline is the biggest rule between heaven and earth. When evacuation is set, it must be evacuated.
It must not affect the safety of Luo Lan's 183 people because of Zhou Qi alone.
As a soldier, Xu Qi was naturally reluctant to continue to wait. His task was to complete the plan made by Qing Zhen, not to save people.
Luo Lan looked at the north with a dazzling look, but Zhou Qi did not appear in that direction.
He told Xu Qi: "Actually, you have also calculated the time of the explosion, right? He had already missed the time to complete the mission in the underground river, and he should have returned early, but he still bombed the server unit."
"Boss Luo, this can't explain anything," Xu Qi shook his head: "Perhaps he really blew up and blew up the server unit, then you should understand that he has no chance of returning, and we don't need to continue to waste time."
Luo Lan sighed: "It's really cold blood..."
"It's not cold-blooded," Xu Qi said seriously: "I'm a soldier, and it's my duty to obey orders. Chief Qing-Huan wants me to take you back to the Qing family safely, and I must take you back safely." , Even if I die in the Central Plains."
"Nothing is dead," Luo Lan laughed. "We can't wait any longer, let's retreat."
Saying that, Luo Lan took out the red true-sighted eyes and walked to the bridge post, and pressed the stone on it for ten laps: "Go, this is the fastest way for us to return to Qingshi, if I guess right , Behind the gate should be the mule fort road of barrier 111."
Xu Qi was stunned for a moment, and Luo Lan had not stepped into that door. Why was he so determined about the location behind the door?
However, as Luo Lan said, the secret key that Ren Xiao secretly imparted to Luo Lan is indeed the best way to escape.
Xu Qi let out a sigh of relief, as long as the boss Luo didn't go to death, otherwise he would really be unable to explain to Qing Qing.
"Boss Luo, let's go first," Xu Qi stared closely at Luo Lan. Luo Lan wouldn't let him down if he didn't enter the door.
Luo Lan smiled: "Why, I am so afraid of death, do you really think I will save Zhou Qi? Rest assured."
With that said, Luo Lan stepped inside the door of the key, and 183 people followed closely, and all disappeared.
Beside this Qianling River Bridge, only the vehicles that had concealed them were standing alone.
It seems that all the things in the Central Plains have ended here. Nothing can be expected and no miracles.
