Bring Interstellar to the end of the world

Chapter 150 Contact
Merlot crystals?

The people standing outside opened their eyes wide.

This thing can be said to be the culprit in the destruction of human civilization. If the United States had not listened to Melo's words and built a crystal matrix in New Jersey, artificial intelligence would not be able to grow rapidly, and then trigger a nuclear war that would destroy the surface environment.

The Merlot crystal that only exists in the United States actually appeared in the territorial waters of Huaxia, which made Zang Feng feel a lot of thoughts.

Secret missions of civilian freighters, sealed boxes, safety boxes, and military submarines...

After wanting to come to the United States to blow up the crystal matrix in New Jersey, Chinese agents obtained several samples of Merlot crystals through unknown channels, and then disguised them as commodities and sent them to the motherland on the other side of the ocean under the cover of civilian freighters.

However, before the cargo ship arrived at its destination, a nuclear war came. The tsunami overturned the cargo ship and overflowed the island. The hull of the ship ran aground in the nearby sea due to a reef, and the most valuable treasures were sealed up until today, more than 100 years later. Only to see the light of day again.

Tang Yan stared blankly at the two Merlot crystals, the soft radiance reflected on the cheeks, pupils of the eyes, and the surface of the skin, covered with a layer of blue, very beautiful and clean.

If it weren't for the relevant data in the terminal in the supervisor's room of No. 1001 Vault, he wouldn't have recognized so quickly that the two crystals in front of him, one large and one small, were the famous Merlot crystals.

Even Han Xin's father only had a sample the size of a palm in his hand.It is said that with the help of intelligence personnel, the U.S. military blasted the crystal matrix in the sky of New Jersey after knowing Merlot’s true identity and intentions, and carried out the destruction operation immediately. Most of the Merlot crystals were disposed of, and only a few Lost in the hands of some "collectors".

Unexpectedly, there were actually two Merlot crystals in the safety box, and the larger one was almost the size of a football.

"Platinum" - the word the military uses to name the contents of the security box.

It is much more valuable than platinum.

The Jiangnan Railway Union, the MRT Consortium, the Western Union, the Greater Northeast Region... and even the scientific research groups in the Nanyang region must be happy to get it, even if it costs a lot.

Merlot crystal is an energy conversion device and a signal transmitting terminal. It can also be used as a network processor to extend the functions of artificial intelligence... This is a general summary of the Merlot crystal made by Han Xin's father.

Artificial intelligence can use Merlot crystals to enslave human beings, so is there a way to change the internal structure, replace the role played by artificial intelligence with human beings, and achieve the purpose of human beings enslaving human beings?I believe this proposition will definitely be liked by some organizations, such as the bigwigs in Jicheng, such as the people of Shinrikyo.

Tang Yan didn't think about this issue for too long, and the birdsong from the direction of the island woke him up.

Zangfeng and the others also noticed the sudden anomaly in the west, and turned their gaze away from the Merlot crystal, following the sound.

The seabirds flying around the island seemed to be frightened. They flew up into the sky like a whirlwind from the ground and fled in all directions. The trees on the hills on the island rustled and listened to the sound of rocks colliding.

"What's the situation on the island?" General Wang said to himself.

Tang Yan remembered his previous speculation about the Mire Crab Queen, walked out of the sealed box quickly, and looked at the sunny side of the hill.

The surrounding trees spread outward, like ripples when a stone is thrown into water. The carnivorous seabirds that originally gathered above the island split into several groups and fled into the distance.

A black object crossed the fallen trees and slowly rose in everyone's field of vision.

Tang Yan took the telescope thrown by Gao Kai and looked at the flying object that appeared in mid-air.

"This is……"

When the enlarged image of the target was reflected in his pupils, Tang Yan's expression changed drastically.

He is no stranger to that thing, and he was very impressed, because the two sides met once half a month ago.

In the basement of Huanglei Manor, the dwarf who called himself "Li" rescued "Yi" who was disguised as Sun Xianke, boarded an aircraft with an optical camouflage system, and left the battlefield calmly.

The aircraft rising from the island is exactly the same as the aircraft that took away "Li" and "Yi".

Then something even more surprising happened.

The flat aircraft rose into the air, and a fishnet-like object appeared in the field of vision of the telescope, and inside was a round, dark object.

It wasn't until the aircraft pulled the object below away from the hill and flew towards the location of the salvage ship that Tang Yan gradually saw the true face of the object --- a huge mud crab, 4 meters away.

"Queen of the Mire Crabs!"

Yes, just as Gao Kai shouted out the name, the thing loaded on the aircraft is the mud crab queen that Tang Yan and Zang Feng searched all over the bottom of the sea to no avail.

The mud crab queen landed on the island ahead and became someone else's prey?
Tang Yan's face was very ugly.

Looking at the aircraft that was getting closer, Zang Feng lifted the Persen FN92 sniper rifle in his hand, turned his head and glanced at him, the meaning was very simple—whether to shoot the aircraft.

Tang Yan shook his head and rejected the legion commander's proposal.

He is indeed a warmonger.But warmongers and war maniacs are two different concepts. He has a good idea of ​​what forces can be provoked and what forces cannot be provoked.

With the power currently possessed by the Pandaren Legion, it is not yet time to face head-to-head with the organization of "Li Yi Ren Zhi Xin", not to mention that those people are not purely hostile to him, or...the attitude of those people towards the mainland forces is very ambiguous , so ambiguous that he had no idea what attitude he should use to face it.

As the craft approached the coast, a second flying object appeared in the field of view of the telescope.

His brow that had just been stretched was frowned again.

"It's it?!" Zang Feng exclaimed from ahead.

Tang Yan, the second flying object, is also no stranger to Zang Feng.

is it!The scorched beast that once flew to Maxim's cannery and then turned back to Toshima just to have a look at Tang Yan.

To be precise, it was the middle-aged man on Jiao Beast looking for him.

But... the final result was that the other party didn't say anything, and he and Zang Feng didn't say anything either, they looked at each other for a while and then dispersed.

The aircraft showed no aggression and missed the location of the salvage ship and headed far to the southwest.The Scorch Beast did not follow and flew at a low altitude towards the location of the salvage ship.

Tang Yan took a look at the person on the back of Jiao Beast, his hand holding the binoculars sank slightly, his eyes fell on the area extending from the hill to the coastline, and his face became very solemn.

He turned around and pushed, closing the door of the sealed box to cover up the breath of Merlot Crystal, and was about to tell Gao Kai to set sail immediately and leave the sea.

Suddenly, for some reason, there was severe pain in my mind, as if a tremor from the depths of my soul swept through my body, and chaotic pictures flashed before my eyes.

His face became extremely pale, and his sweat was like rain.

Gao Kai noticed the change in his expression and looked worried: "Tang Yan, are you okay?"

At this time, the Scorch Beast flew into the sea near the salvage ship. General Wang pointed at the middle-aged man standing on the Scorch Beast's back and said, "Ah...it's you!"

When Tang Yan went to Fengdao, Jiao Beast visited Maxim's Cannery. The middle-aged man called "Tang Yan" three times. After making sure that the man was not hostile, Zeng Hua told him that Tang Yan was not there and he didn't know where he was. place, the man did not stay and waited, and left together with the burnt beast.

After the three of them came back from Fengdao, Zang Feng said that he had seen Jiao Beast and the middle-aged man on Jiao Beast's back, but there was no verbal communication, and the man left after meeting them, not knowing what the purpose of coming to see them was.

It has only been a week, and the two sides actually encountered each other at the sinking place of "Platinum", which makes people feel that the world is really small.

Zang Feng just glanced at the person coming and then lowered his head. His eyes fell on the coast in front of the reef group, and his electronic eyes flashed with a terrifying red light.

At the end of the line of sight, mud crabs quickly moved their short legs and rushed towards the salvage ship.

In his opinion, the middle-aged man standing on the back of the Scorched Beast deliberately approached the salvage ship to attract a large number of mire crabs.

Their queen became the prey of humans and was taken away by the aircraft. It is conceivable how deep and great the hatred is.

It is difficult for mud crabs to attack enemies flying in the sky, and the salvage ship parked above the nest naturally becomes a new target. Anyway, for these fierce beasts, human beings should be eliminated.

"Go high, sail the boat immediately."

"Slow down, don't worry." Tang Yan raised his head suddenly, interrupting Zang Feng's shouting.

Both Gao Kai and General Wang noticed that the mud crab brigade was approaching quickly. There were not only ordinary mud crabs in it, but also high-level beasts such as mud crab razor claws and mud crab hunters. If they hesitated, they would definitely fall into the trap. Very bad situation.

Different from the performance of those three people, Tang Yan focused his eyes on the middle-aged man standing on Jiao Beast's back. Although his face was pale, his expression was rich and his emotions were very complicated.

The middle-aged man looked down at him for a while, then moved his eyes to the bow of the ship, looked at the SCV for a few moments, then suddenly raised his arms, and dropped something he was holding in his arms.

The thing was surrounded by a piece of blue-gray flannelette, which was lifted loosely under the blowing of the sea breeze, revealing a corner of the back.

A face was revealed...a delicate woman's face.

The sea breeze blew the scattered black hair and kept hitting the blushing cheeks.

She arched her brows slightly, and a wrinkle on the bridge of her nose twitched slightly, as if she was enduring pain, or as if she was impatient with the annoying sea breeze.

There is no aura that repels people thousands of miles away, and there is no condescending indifference. There is also very little sultry charm. Her beauty is very clean, as clean as the two blue crystals in the safety box.

Tang Yan stared straight at her face, not because he wanted to keep that beauty, but because of familiarity.

Many memory fragments flooded into his mind in an instant, like a narrow river pouring into a torrent, almost bursting.

He saw two feet on the balcony that were wet with rain, walking on tiptoes, their raised arms and long sleeves like a pair of white wings. Farther away, the setting sun sank into the Western Mountains, its last light dyed red. The sunset.

She said it would be nice if she could fly, so she could fly out of the cage to see the outside world.

He saw her lying on the cold floor, shrugging her shoulders feebly, sobbing in a low voice, looking so pitiful and weak.

He saw her sitting on the balcony, looking at the broken house hidden in the twilight in the distance, humming softly the tune she didn't know where she learned it.

"The small window with flower carvings, the eaves reflect the setting sun."

"I live in the south of the Yangtze River, but you are far away."

"The moss is green and the wall is red, but I am young and yellow."

"A wound that passes away like the evening wind."

"I'm sitting on the loft in Suzhou."

"A decal on a bronze mirror is dressing."

"If you show off your eyebrows, you will write about your past in poetry."

"Brew a cup of jasmine tea, for whom can I cool it down."

"The bell of the bracelet rings in the garden."

"The sound of plum rain falls on my heart."

"Calling you not to wander.

"..."

He also saw her walking on the steps covered in the morning light, nearly slipped by the stones on the side of the road, staggered to his eyes, leaned on her upper body slightly, stretched out her arms and spread her palms, which were broken into two pieces chocolate.

"Eat it...it won't hurt if you eat it..."

……

This is?The memory of the original owner of this body?
"Ah..." Tang Yan yelled in pain, with his head clamped between his arms, beads of sweat the size of beans fell drop by drop on the poop deck and shattered.

"Tang Yan... Tang Yan, what's the matter with you?" General Wang's anxious cry came from the ear, but it was not real, shaky, and seemed to be separated by a layer of water waves, very far away.

Pfft!
There was the sound of objects falling into the water ahead.

The scorched beast hanging in the sky let out a sharp neigh, quickly vibrated its wings, and flew away in the direction where the aircraft was going away.

Zang Feng raised his gun but did not fire in the end.

At this time, Tang Yan pushed away General Wang who was worried about his health, rushed to the front deck, quickly opened the cockpit cover of the SCV, started the engine and jumped into the water.

Bang!
boom!
gurgling gurgling...

First there was the sound of heavy objects falling into the water, and then there was the picture of bubbles surging in the field of vision.

Tang Yan didn't have time to think too much, and the thrusters were fully fired, rushing towards the water where the girl sank with a terrifying flow of bubbles.

The blue velvet blanket wrapped around her body was nowhere to be found, and her arms and elbows had a pair of wide white sleeves, unfolding as her body sank into the water.

There are relatively few clothes on the upper body, and two black cloth belts cross over the shoulders and across the chest.

Below is a pair of white shorts, with several blue ribbons shaped like phoenix feathers floating on the sides and back.

The feet are bare, without shoes, and there is a silver bracelet on the right ankle.

Her body sank, her clothes and long hair raised upwards, gently shaking with the current.

The speed of the SCV is very fast, before her body sank to the bottom of the sea, she supported her body with her arms. Under the propulsion of the surging flames, she shot towards the water surface with a string of arc-shaped bubbles, broke through the ocean, and appeared under the sky, where the sun was blooming. place.

There was a reef very close to the front, and at some point there was a ferocious beast that looked like a lobster with a pair of huge claws and eight legs on the reef.

The mud crab hunter--a relatively advanced existence in the mud crab group, can use pincers to fight in close quarters, and can also spit acidic body fluid to attack distant targets.

Tang Yan grabbed the joystick and turned to the left, exerting force with his right foot. The flames of the injector port at the rear of the SCV exploded, and with the turbulent waves on both sides of the soles of the feet, it made a sharp turn along the reef and headed for the location of the salvage ship.
