Earth Survival Guide

Chapter 14 Annihilation Mode
"No, it's very uncomfortable to miss her, but if you dig her out of memory, it will be more uncomfortable than missing her, like cutting a piece of flesh from your body."

Gu Tao's voice was low, which was rare for him. He really missed his companions, but if he really used that back door, he might be able to see the voices and smiles of those guys again, but the fake ones will always be fake. Unreal pain will make people who are already suffering from longing even more miserable.

"Have you been cut?" Xin Chen came forward mysteriously: "I haven't been cut. How do you feel?"

"Go, go, go." Gu Tao chased away this ignorant guy like a fly: "Stay away from me, I'm busy."

"I'm afraid I cut something that can't be said? Let me guess?"

"Can you die if you don't talk? How about going to the cabin lounge to play, there is a TV there."

"Oh...can you watch Happy Camp?"

"can!"

Xin Chen happily left Gu Tao, but Gu Tao didn't keep quiet for 2 minutes, he appeared in front of his junior brother again, and asked curiously: "Junior brother, let me ask you, why don't you stay?" Here, I think the environment is great, air-conditioned and clean.”

Gu Tao looked up at him, smiled slightly, and put down his work: "Come with me."

Taking Xin Chen to the dormant cabin, Gu Tao, who hadn't entered here for six years, stood at the dark cabin door, took a deep breath, and nodded: "Light up."

The lights turned on, and the true face of this place was revealed to Xin Chen, but this time, Xin Chen didn't fumble around like before, but bowed down to the four shimmering dormant containers in the dark in a decent manner. bow.

"you know?"

"The aura of death cannot be concealed. Even if they are kept here by you, the aura of death will slowly permeate and permeate the air. Senior brother knows why you don't want to live here." Xin Chen sighed: "Senior brother has a ruthless Please."

"Tell me, beat around the bush."

"Entering the earth is safe, have you heard of this word?" Xin Chen looked at Gu Tao anxiously: "After a person dies, the corpse will not be buried in the earth, and the soul will be restless."

"No..." Gu Tao shook his head slightly: "I..."

In fact, Gu Tao's refusal was very weak. The reason why he has been keeping the corpses of his companions here is actually holding a faint hope that they can be revived again after returning to the home planet.

But in fact, he knows that this is impossible. The Ethics Committee has ruled the mother planet for 2000 years. They reject the birth of all technologies related to the human body. They believe that birth, old age, sickness and death are the destiny and law of human beings. Maybe medicine can improve human life span, but It will absolutely not interfere with the death of human beings, not to mention the technology that can bring people back from the dead, even similar cloning technologies are strictly prohibited.

From Gu Tao's standpoint, this is a bad thing, but from the perspective of the entire human race, these technologies must be restricted, strictly restricted.Otherwise, when human beings crack the code of life, it will be the time when the population will die out.

only……

He couldn't bear it, he really couldn't bear it, he couldn't bear to watch Tifa and Dad being decomposed into basic cosmic particles in the soil, and then disappeared from his vision forever, and then slowly melted into his memory as time went by .

You know, the last person in this world who remembers them is Gu Tao.In Gu Tao's opinion, as long as he doesn't forget them, they have never really died, so he is very afraid, very afraid that he will slowly forget them when he no longer sees them.

"Junior Brother, you are very selfish." Xin Chen said with a serious expression, "Did you know that the body will not be buried in the ground, and the soul will repeat the pain of death, suffocation, bondage and despair once a day."

"Don't worry about it!" Gu Tao waved his hand to shake off Xin Chen's arm, but he didn't expect that guy's hand to be as motionless as a pair of pliers.

"Want to fight?"

"Okay." Xin Chen nodded, slowly let go of Gu Tao's shoulders, and turned his fingers into swords: "If I lose, I won't say another word. If you lose, let them die in peace."

"What does this matter have to do with you!" Gu Tao questioned, "This is my business."

"You are my junior brother."

Gu Tao knows Xin Chen's virtues, this guy is just a piece of dog skin plaster, once it sticks on, it can't be torn off, even if it dies, it must be a layer of skin, so after checking his eyes, Gu Tao took out two plasters from the cabinet. Helmet-like thing: "Hit and hit."

"What... is this?" Xin Chen blinked and played with the helmet on his hand: "Speed ​​racing?"

"This is a concrete helmet, which can project itself into data, and then form an image of power equal to yours in the database through computer calculations. You can control it with brain waves... that is, mental power, because it directly stimulates the brain. , so it is no different from the real self, it will hurt and get injured, but there is a protection mechanism, people who lose their combat effectiveness will be ejected from consciousness, we usually use this in combat training.”

"Good thing!" Xin Chen's eyes lit up immediately: "Then if senior brother uses him to practice, won't it save a lot of trouble?"

"Theoretically so."

Gu Tao was not happy, he was in a very bad mood now, as if he was looking for a good fight with someone, so he was not full of baseness as usual, and Xin Chen was undoubtedly the best target.

"Then junior brother, let's get started."

"It's time for you to see the power of technology."

Taking the helmets into the training room, the two people sat on the vector chairs, and then their whole bodies were fixed, leaving almost no room to move. Then the helmets were put on their heads by drones.

"Now start the data simulation, your data will be analyzed, and then you will appear in a virtual space, and you can adapt."

After Gu Tao finished speaking, he took the lead to enter the virtual arena. This is a vast open space. In theory, after the negotiation between the two parties, any desired place can be simulated, whether it is space or the depths of the rainforest.

After a while, Xin Chen also appeared here. He stood there and looked at his virtual body with interest, and then jumped to Gu Tao: "Junior brother, junior brother, this is so interesting. If I experience Is it okay to live in New York?"

Gu Tao thought for a while: "It's ok...I'll try."

After setting the scene, the surrounding environment suddenly changed. A city appeared on the originally boundless wild plain, and the two of them were standing in the most famous Times Square, surrounded by noisy sounds and the smell of grilled hot dogs filling the air.

"It seems to be okay... Hey!"

When he turned around, he suddenly found that Xin Chen was standing in line at the takeaway window of a bakery shop. When he went to call Xin Chen back, this guy was already eating happily with a chocolate cake.

"Junior brother! This food tastes the same! It's amazing."

"It's all virtual. Although the brain will make you feel full, there is actually no energy replenishment."

"Wouldn't that mean you won't get fat?"

"Ah."

"Then we'll fight later." Xin Chen pointed to the distance: "I'll get food!"

Seeing this rogue style, Gu Tao really had no choice but to watch helplessly as Xin Chen did whatever he wanted in the virtual space, eating this and that, accepting all the delicious and unpleasant ones.

"enough?"

Xin Chen, who was sitting on a bench by the roadside, rubbed his belly and burped. Gu Tao walked up to him and looked at him condescendingly, with a rather helpless tone.

"Enough is enough, it's killing me, it feels so real. But I'm full now, what should I do if I want to sleep?"

"Let me remind you that the flow rate of time is equal, so don't waste too much time."

"Okay..." Xin Chen sighed: "Then let's get started."

"At this?"

"Yes, right here. Let me make a few requirements for you. First, you must not destroy the city. Second, you must not harm innocent people. Finally, you must not use too powerful weapons."

"Okay! What else? You tell me."

“Meng Xiong, my Dream Xiong.”

"it is good!"

"It's nothing, let's start like this."

Gu Tao called up the analysis data of Mengxiong, and a weapon suddenly appeared behind Xin Chen. He touched his Mengxiong with his backhand, and said with a satisfied smile: "It feels exactly the same, and the high technology is really great."

This time Gu Tao didn't respond to him again, but put on his exoskeleton again. The extremely cool spider-style armor, the matte black was full of high-end atmosphere under the sunlight.

Following Gu Tao's installation, pedestrians in the virtual Times Square rushed forward to watch like real people. Xin Chen looked around, stretched his muscles slowly, and snapped his fingers lightly.

Mengxiong came out of its sheath at the sound, and when Mengxiong was out of its sheath, Xin Chen's whole temperament changed, from being a bitch to being like a sharp knife out of its sheath in an instant, and Gu Tao's left hand also had a high-frequency cutting device, a particle shield also appeared on the right hand.

"Satania, lock him down."

After Gu Tao issued the order, a frame suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, which locked Xin Chen inside, but the moment Gu Tao was about to launch an attack, Xin Chen disappeared.

When the alarm sounded in the ear, the quick response module guided Gu Tao to quickly turn around and raise the shield. At this moment, Meng Xiong had directly pressed against Gu Tao's particle shield, and the shock wave from the extremely fast impact After overturning the onlookers, the virtualized people came to their senses and started screaming and running away.

"Senior brother is very skilled."

Hearing this lazy voice, Gu Tao, who was fighting Meng Xiong, suddenly trembled all over, subconsciously swung his left arm, and the acceleration device behind him also sprayed purple-blue flames. After a heavy shield blow, Meng Xiong The bear was bounced away, but the arm blade of the left hand hit something tough.

Gu Tao turned his head and found that Xin Chen was holding Mengxiong against his arm blade at the moment, with that lazy smile still on his face.

With no time to react, Gu Tao withdrew his arm blade immediately, and then pushed the shield in his right hand directly towards Xin Chen. Just when the two were about to touch, Xin Chen disappeared again, silently.

"Turn on scan."

The scanner on the outside of the armor was turned on instantly. After scanning the energy in a circle, the system immediately found Xin Chen's position. After Gu Tao locked onto him again, a ball of white light suddenly burst out from under his feet. The powerful impact made him fly high. With the help of gravity and the acceleration of the injector behind him, he broke through the sound barrier almost instantly.

The sudden explosion shattered all the surrounding glass, and the screams became louder, but Gu Tao didn't care about those at all, and went straight to Xin Chen.

Naturally, Xin Chen would not sit still, he stretched out his finger, Mengxiong flew out again, and stabbed straight at Gu Tao's body. It seemed a stupid attack pattern, and Gu Tao naturally thought so, falling at a high speed He avoided Mengxiong by adjusting the angle a little bit, but at the moment he passed by Mengxiong, a sudden sense of fear rose from the bottom of his heart. This feeling made him shudder, so relying on his instinct The armor suddenly accelerated, staggered the path and fell to the side.

The moment he changed direction, Mengxiong appeared in front of Gu Tao again after flickering in the air several times as if he had a soul.

"Junior Brother, you lost."

Just when Gu Tao was about to be stabbed by Meng Xiong, a shadow suddenly appeared behind him. Xin Chen's figure was like an unsheathed arrow, and then turned his palm into a fist, and punched Gu Tao's exoskeleton .

Gu Tao felt nothing else, just that his whole body was numb, and then he flew out like a cannonball, and a message indicating that he had received a destructive attack appeared on the vision interface.

"Start annihilation mode!"

Gu Tao, who was flying backwards, started to brake, but even so, the powerful kinetic energy caused him to crash through a building, and just when he was about to catch a fleeing pedestrian with a frightened face, he finally started the armored killing model.

The body that could hardly stop stopped in an instant, and stopped less than one meter in front of the desperate woman. He turned his head and took off his hat to apologize to the woman, although he was not wearing a hat.

After this small movement was completed, Gu Tao disappeared here with a whoosh and appeared directly in front of Xin Chen, while Xin Chen just stood in mid-air with his hands behind his back, Meng Xiong hovered beside him, looking extraordinary.

"Brother, you did a good job just now."

"You don't need to teach me." Throwing away the arm blade and shield, the color of the battle armor that entered the annihilation mode became like a boiled lobster, with a flame-like crimson on top and bottom: "Again!"

"Senior brother..."

Before Xin Chen could finish his sentence, his eyes suddenly widened, and he ran back three times as if running away, avoiding Gu Tao's blow, but just when he was still standing still , The second, third, and fourth attacks followed one after another.

Xin Chen repeatedly dodged and fought back, but now Gu Tao seemed to be a completely different person from just now. Xin Chen's original contemptuous expression disappeared, replaced by a serious and serious look.

"Five Thunder Curse!"

A thunderbolt hit Gu Tao's body, but it didn't stop him for even a tenth of a second. Even Gu Tao didn't care about Meng Xiong's slashing, and started Xin Chen like crazy.

"Junior brother, you are too hostile." Xin Chen squinted his eyes, and with a flick of his body, stepped on Gu Tao's fist and flew out, with an air of ecstasy: "Your anger has reduced your combat effectiveness. Sancheng, you are no match for senior brother."

After finishing speaking, Xin Chen used an almost defenseless trick again, appearing on the back of Gu Tao's heart like a flash, with his palm on his battle armor, and although Gu Tao had already reacted, it was too late.

"burst!"

The kinetic energy generated by the violent energy reaction caused Gu Tao to turn into a cannonball and fly into the sky again. Although the armor was not harmed, the feeling of being knocked away was really bad...

But this time, Xin Chen didn't hold back his hands anymore. As he pointed his sword with both hands, the Mengxiong, which originally had only one handle, suddenly turned into thousands of sword shadows, like a spinning blender enveloping Gu Tao in mid-air .

"Junior brother, put down your anger!" Xin Chen's voice seemed to come from the sky: "Otherwise, you can't defeat senior brother."

"Fuck!" Gu Tao's battle armor shell has been cut and scarred. It looks miserable, but in fact it didn't hurt him too much. He rushed out from the siege: "I said, I want you to experience the power of technology!"

The armor suddenly disintegrated in mid-air, Gu Tao fell down, and then another set of brand new armor wrapped his body, and the disintegrated armor flew towards Gu Tao like iron pieces attracted by a magnet. After combining the two sets of battle armor, Gu Tao transformed into a heavy armored warrior and stood opposite Xin Chen again.

Xin Chen's breathing was a little short, but he still stood there with his hands behind his back, but even so, the small beads of sweat on the tip of his nose could not be covered up anyway.

"Junior brother, yes."

"Nonsense." The sixteen pairs of compound eyes on Gu Tao's armor flashed with terrifying light, and the heavy armor on his body also shone brightly: "Annihilation Mode [-], activate."
