Chapter 487: Dream machine

In the cool-toned doomsday hotel, there is a dead silence.
Lin Chi walked into the cold corridor and checked his current state with the cold light cast by the incandescent lamp on his head.
The weapons and props that he got from this map in his pocket have all disappeared at this time, leaving only the observer's contract in his pocket, but the content on the paper has also undergone subtle changes:
The original distress content was gone, replaced by a simple and rude line: "Go to Room 207."
In addition, Lin Chi's dark blue prison clothes, which had been soaked with blood, were also replaced by smocked overalls. The top of the shirt was printed with the three letters "F.G.T". I don't know what it means.
Lin Chi looked up and stared at the dilapidated third floor ceiling. I saw the ceiling at the end of the corridor, like a big hole in the bomb. The bleak cold light came in from the hole and reflected the cement that was not illuminated by the light. Ground.
- So, what is the setting of your current location?
Lin Chi, who was still in a confused state, tried to open the door in the hall except for Room 303, only to find that all the doors were locked and could not be opened at all.
Fortunately, there was no iron fence door that could not be opened in the stairwell of the "Apocalypse Hotel". Lin Chi did not encounter any obstacles and went down the stairs to the second floor, preparing to go to Room 207 on the other side of the corridor. .
Then, at the moment he pulled his head out of the hallway, he suddenly stopped.
- Four men in black combat uniforms, submachine guns, binocular night vision, and looks like special forces soldiers, standing on the other side of the corridor. Search the room on the second floor.
"what's the situation?"
Seeing that the enemy is suspected to be the enemy, Lin Chi is also leaning against the wall, alertly staring at the shadow cast from the other side of the corridor, watching the guys slowly approach.
After entering the "parallel space", he resumed his unarmed state. It is obviously extremely difficult to subdue a fully armed soldier by both hands.
In order to get rid of those enemies, in addition to weapons, you still have to wait for a chance...
With this in mind, Lin Chi bowed his head and focused his attention on a brick at the foot and on the broken glass next to it.
In the silent corridor, the soldiers whispered something, although the sound was very low, but because the building was too quiet, their voices were still very clear:
"Not here, maybe it is running away..."
"Continue searching, we must find that madman. His guinea pigs should be dying."
"Can't you unplug it directly?"
"No! In that case they are completely saved, we need them..."
The soldiers whispered and walked toward the stairwell, and the eyepieces on the head would not shine any light even under incandescent light.
The two soldiers at the rear aimed the muzzle at the back of the corridor. The two men in front were alert and slowly moving forward. The hands were tightly shaking hands in the dark submachine gun. The dark figure was like a cold ghost.
"Be careful……"
A soldier walking in front of the right, using tactical gestures to give the teammates a "stop forward" command, pointing the muzzle at the black stairway, with the help of night vision, ready to check whether the stairway is hiding people.
Then, a brick flew out under the watchful eyes of four soldiers, and the glass that broke the opposite corridor flew out of the building.
When the bricks appeared, the four soldiers had subconsciously raised their guns at the stairs, but their sights followed the law of human "automatically tracking moving objects", moving the bricks from left to right and out of the window.
And this fleeting time is exactly what Lin Chi needs right now!
Before the four soldiers opened fire, Lin Chi had already rushed out of the stairs, and the sharp glass fragments in his hand were nailed directly to the neck of the soldier closest to him, and then immediately pulled out the D80 fighting saber in the scabbard of the other side, cutting Open the throat of another person next to you.
Oh...
The gunshot of the submachine gun rang, and the flame from the muzzle illumined the dark corridor. The two soldiers at the rear shot almost zero-distance, but all hit the body armor on the companion.
Relying on the soldier who had cut his neck to make a meat shield, Lin Chi successfully returned to the stairwell to avoid the enemy's shooting range.
"Fuck……"
In the face of an emergency, the remaining two soldiers were caught unprepared, while turning back and turning on the portable radio, trying to call support.
One of the soldiers took out the grenade and just pulled off the insurance pin. The sudden flash of silver light suddenly appeared in front of him. It was followed by a large saber flying from the front, nailed to his right wrist, and almost crazy. Acute pain.
"Ah!"
The soldier fell to the ground and looked at the wrist worn by his saber. He screamed loudly, and the unloading grenade in his hand rolled on the ground for a few seconds, hitting the door of the apartment next to it, making a crisp sound.
"I go……"
Seeing this scene, the other soldier next to him was too late to say it, and the whole person was swallowed up by the fiery ball of the grenade explosion.
boom!
Lin Chi, who was hiding in the stairwell, witnessed the flesh and blood fragments being slammed into the nearby wall by the shock wave. Determined that the enemy has been killed, he finally entered the corridor again.
Four soldiers have been smashed in the grenade explosion, and their equipment was also blown up. This is a hallway full of bullet holes, like being washed by blood, the walls are full of scars and flesh and blood fragments.
"This map is really exciting." Lin Chi said with emotion.
Nowadays, he is very clear about what is said in the map introduction. This map is closed not only for the killing protection program, but also for the players to provide a harmonious picture of the "blood control system". Nowadays, in the brain-integrated imaging game, which is increasingly "harmonious" because of policy, there is only one kind of "War Heaven" in the image of flesh and blood.
There is a smog of smoke in the air, and the smell of barbecue is also mixed in it. Lin was quick to walk through the zone in the corridor to the ferrous metal door in Room 207.
As before, the door to Room 207 was not locked. Just by looking at the burning marks on the door frame and the burning marks on the wall at the door, we knew that the soldiers should have used the door breaker and forcibly opened the door.
Entering the gate of Room 207, it was the same messy living room, but unlike the last "Doomsday Inn", this time in Room 207, there was a strange machine.
It should have been the bedroom of the bedroom, but it was occupied by a cube of silver shell. The surface of the thing flashed a sharp cold light, the top was filled with a slender metal tube, and the bottom base was fixed to the floor by a large screw, apparently unable to move.
--what is this?
Lin Chi was interested in standing in front of the machine and observing the structure of this thing.
This seemingly high-tech device, without any exposed control panels and display screens, could not find a position to operate, the blue and white electric light from time to time, and the dangerous buzzing sound, reminding him "Don't touch."
So, is this machine related to the previously different "switch map"?
When Lin Chi was thinking about it, behind her, she was in a close position, and suddenly a female voice shivering:
"That, please..."
Like the sound that sounded from the ear, I was scared that Lin came back instantly, but did not see anyone. The woman seemed to notice his fear and whispered, "Don't worry, I am using a speaker..."
"Scared to death." Lin Chi muttered rudely and asked, "Who are you?"
The other party did not answer immediately, but whispered: "You are the enemy of the soldiers, right? I saw you killing them in the monitor."
"Okay." Lin nodded and added another sentence: "Please answer my question."
Since entering this game, he has been in a state of procrastination. What he wants to know most is the plot and world view of this map.
Now, this woman who is being chased by soldiers should have some insider control.
"Ah, wait for me to see if there are any enemy bugs nearby..."
The female voice sounded a bit flustered. After a minute, it finally sounded again: "Thank God, they should all die. What, what did you ask?"
For this confused guy, Lin Chi repeated his question again and again, and finally got the other party's reply:
"Hello, I am the administrator of this community. I am also trying to save the residents and will lock them up..."
--administrator?
Hearing this word, Lin’s mind first appeared in the
executive officer
, but he quickly realized that the administrator in the other party is not the game administrator (GM), but another Management in the sense:
"What do you mean, are you a neighborhood?"
"The neighborhood committee... is your statement? I am here called the apartment resident administration." The woman is very serious in this regard, and she said seriously: "The residents of this apartment are under my management."
"So what happened to this machine? And what about other people in the apartment?" Lin Chi asked curiously.
"The machine is a 'dream creation machine', and the rest of the apartment should still be in the dream it creates." The woman quickly answered Lin Chi’s question: "I just came back from there..."
- In this way, the map before is actually the "dream" made by this machine?
Realizing this, Lin Chi finally understood the reason for the map switch and continued to ask: "So why are you doing this?"
"You can see it too." The woman's voice was a bit frustrated: "The war broke out here, it is already ridiculous. It is surrounded by minefields and radiation areas nearby, and we can't leave at all."
"So, have you prepared a virtual ‘the paradise’ for them?
Lin Chi reacted immediately.
"Yeah, it was like this at the beginning." The woman smiled. "The food and supplies here are still enough for a while, but the residents are beginning to feel restless. I know that I was trapped in the apartment during the war and could not get out. Even the network has been broken, it is really desperate."
"In order to appease the residents, I will use this machine to create a virtual paradise, let everyone live in, temporarily forget the troubles in the real world. And their physical body is supported by infusion."
"But now, there is worse than here." Lin Chi smiled.
"Yes, so I will escape..." The woman sighed: "But it is strange here. The tenants on the first floor are all missing. There is also a group of soldiers who are inexplicably chasing me."
Although the question she raised is indeed very strange. However, in the current situation, what is most worried about Lin is another problem:
"So, can you explain what this ‘dream machine is making?’ You don’t feel strange?
Lin said.
In this world view, which is suspected to be in the 1990s, there are strange devices similar to the brain-like imaging game bins. It is really a bit too different and full of strong sense of violation.
"Ah, you said this machine..." The woman’s voice didn’t sound too much. It’s an understatement:
This is provided by Mr. Vincent in the apartment. Everyone before they enter the hatch. Signed the agreement, agreed to the use of this machine, and erased some of the previous memories. Do you have any questions?"
The "wiping out of memory" thing, even in the real world of 2035, is still impossible. For this reason, Lin Chi was a little surprised when he heard the woman's explanation. He asked, "Are you serious?"
"Yes, isn't that important?" The woman's tone was a little confused: "What happened to you?"
Lin Chi soon realized that in the other world view, the "dream machine" equipment seems to be taken for granted, and there is no strange feeling.
However... for Lin Chi, this situation is really abnormal:
According to the woman's account, the apartment building should be surrounded by minefields and radiation zones. But if it is enough to create the technical level of "dream manufacturing machine", it is easy to break through the minefield.
Of course, the army in this worldview may also have very advanced equipment to create minefields that cannot be broken. However, judging from the equipment of the four soldiers that Lin Chi had just killed, the soldiers here actually used the weapons and equipment of the 1990s and did not show a particularly advanced level of technology.
Under this level of technology, black technology such as "dream control machine" simply should not exist! so……
This apartment, it will not be the same as the Doomsday Inn, is the simulated virtual space?
Thinking of this, Lin Chizheng is going to talk, and the woman’s voice is ringing again, with a hint of anxiety in her voice:
"Not good, there are soldiers coming over!"
When the voice did not fall, Lin Chi heard the outside of the apartment and suddenly heard the sound of the helicopter propeller rotating. He stood in front of the window and saw the open space in front of the apartment. The light on the transport helicopter was bright.
More than a dozen black soldiers are descending from helicopters hovering in midair, and along the long ropes thrown from the cabin, they slide down to the open space in front of the apartment.
After landing, these black-faced soldiers wearing night vision devices quickly dispersed, in a standard combat formation, and from the three entrances, to the apartment.
