Is It Really Ark of Tomorrow?

In this small independent city where people are awake and working 24 hours a day, everyone can get their own peace and happiness.As for the strange sounds that occasionally came from underground, those inexplicable shouts and screams, and those creaking sounds of metal friction, they also ignored them.

It's just that the engineering department is doing decoration and drilling holes below.In order to prove what they said was true, the engineering department even specially showed the sound of their self-developed construction machinery, which is not considered to be the forefront of Terra, re-planning and digging against the alloy walls and pipelines.It was indeed like crying and screaming.No one doubts what lies beneath the Valley of Hinnom.

Even if they work on the third floor, they have never seen the scenery below.As long as you don't think about it, you won't notice the surprise, right?

Today, the Hinnom Valley Company is still operating peacefully.The programmer recorded and entered the computer data up and down, and didn't care about the screams and wails coming from the music on the wall behind him.

'Alpha Squad, Alpha Squad, here is Beta Squad, call Alpha Squad, A-level mental pollution is detected.Alpha Squad please perform a level [-] meme cleanup, repeat, we call for a level [-] meme cleanup! '

This can even make up a big drama.

The programmer drinking coffee shook his head while listening to melodious music that he had never heard outside, leaving all the anomalies in his mind behind.

Chapter 11 Level 1 Memetic Contamination: Casimir's Starvation 18/[-]

"Xinen Valley Company, your eternal choice! The company's benefits and benefits are the best in Casimir, and it has won the title of the best company for four consecutive months. Now you can also receive limited-time clothing and mental tranquilizers when you join, so that you will not be excluded by your seniors." Juniors wait for the phenomenon!"

"Hinnom Valley Corporation, using biotechnology to create the future of Terra!"

"Valley of Hinnom—"

'boom'

After a dull bombardment, the twisted and bright signboard was interrupted by the middle.

Looking at the weird advertisements that were played repeatedly on it, the cloaked people shuttling under the neon colors lit up the lights on their masks one after another, watching the huge building vigilantly in all directions.

These cloaked people dress in a completely different way than all the mainstream styles of Terra.Countless protruding cubes and angular structures protrude and slide on the mercury-like surface like water waves, coupled with countless spotted cloaks and a pitch-black mask with only an arc-shaped light socket in the center, it looks quite strange and inorganic. beauty.

And the actions of this team are even more silent and terrifying, ignoring gravity and friction, walking silently on the street, walking on the outer layer of the stairs as if walking on flat ground, showing a perfect ninety-ninety Degree angles, gravity and gravitational forces are completely non-existent for these strangely dressed teams.

The one who destroyed the chattering sign was also a soldier standing on the curtain wall of the building, carrying a black slender gun-like prop.But there was no sound of gunshots, only faint black figures floating and looming in the long and slender mosaic.

If there are other living beings who witness what happened here, they will definitely suspect that their world has been subverted.

But they can't be here.

This is not Terra.

This is a hell that only the chosen ones can reach.

And looking at the neon lights and the billboards that were constantly shining in the silence around him, the refracted light turned into a fragmented matte on the circulating cloak.

A few seconds later, light blue projected text appeared inside the helmets.A series of tasks and dialogues are gradually formed in the retina.

'This is the Beta team, they are diving deep, and we have arrived at Casimir's projection area. '

'The Alpha monitoring team is in place to confirm that there are no pollutants in the observation area. '

Area '13 cleared, Reality Stabilization Team ready for testing. '

'Please be careful not to interleave, it is easy to cause instability. '

Light blue fluorescent lights flickered in the helmet, and several hazy shadows appeared in the area they were in.

It was like seeing some weird shadows in a dream. These strange shadows took staggering steps, holding some strange-looking shadows in their hands, and stabbed towards the seemingly empty street ahead.

And at the moment when the long shadow penetrated into the street space, an invisible scream instantly exploded in everyone's hearts.The surrounding world shook violently, making those hazy shadows looming, and they were about to turn into real existence.

'The Reality Stabilization Team has arrived and the Stabilization Unit is active. '

'The temperature variable within one meter is [-] degrees up and down, and we are almost approaching the constant zone. '

'The countdown to the release of the reality anchor, 5,4,3,2, 1, [-], [-], [-], the release is complete. '

As a baby-like sob sounded in everyone's heart, the original illusory shadow gradually condensed into a real form.

Holding some shining cubes and long poles in their hands, the action team dressed exactly like these teams that defied gravity in the block quickly integrated into the team.

Under the command of several tactical gestures, the two action teams merged into one, and quickly moved towards the interior of the block that was gradually covered with frost and flames.The phenomena of frost accretion and melting continuously condensed and melted on their flowing cloaks, and finally turned into water droplets and sprinkled on the ground, instantly condensing into ice cubes.It made a strange sound when it was stepped on.

'Alpha Squad, this is Beta Squad.We are locking the source of the pollution. If there is no accident, please carry out the first anti-meme attack to the area about 300 meters directly in front of you. '

The light blue subtitles in the helmet flowed like a stream of water, and suddenly rippled in mid-air like water waves.

A harsh and sharp sound like a sharp knife passing through glass came from the area directly in front, and the surrounding world suddenly became fragmented.

The outer layer of the huge building collapsed and shattered in an instant, revealing the viscera-like structure inside.And those originally glamorous advertising signs and characters have become ugly and ferocious, the original sacred Yao Knight and Silver Knight have become blood-stained, with only two holes in their eye sockets, crying and screaming at the assault team .

"What are you going to do! Don't you know how corrupt this world has become! Only by working hard and breaking through this cage can we gain true happiness and freedom! This world is deformed!"

"Join us, follow us, resist this unjust world, let's get out of this abyss and purgatory together, and let's take revenge on this world together!"

"We are one!"

'An audio memetic infection has been detected, the antimeme audio facility has now been activated. '

There was a melodious and elegant voice in my mind, but it had never been heard by the outside world.

Listening to such a calm and peaceful song, the mood will become calm and stable.All the execution teams did not intend to stop at all, and rushed into the twisted and broken streets one after another, treating the dark and blood-oozing world outside as nothing.

When they reached an area around 300 meters away, at the very center of blood and chaos, all the team members dispersed, and the strange mosaic strips in their hands began to smash towards the ground.A series of silver lines began to surround the bodies of many executors, outlining their uniforms more and more sharply, buzzing.And the projection in the helmet refreshed a series of new data.

'Anti-meme shock delivered.Tainted units are coming, watch out for how well the meme filter filters. '

'The reality anchor is at work, and the emotional artifacts are coalescing into corpses. '

'Target Discovery, Tertiary Contamination Target, Casimir's Starvation. '

'Appearance carrier, Margaret. Linguang. '

'Ready for eviction. '

Looking at the holy white figure coming out of the black mist amidst countless screams and cries, all the black shadows set up the units in their hands and aimed at the pale white figure.

Chapter 12 Deep Diving World 2/18

"...This is the command center, and the cleanup work has been successfully completed. Congratulations to everyone in the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma three-team action teams who have received a month's reward performance."

"The engineering department deducted one week's performance. Please write a paper to explain why the anti-meme facility has reality interference during the battle, causing some meme pollution to flow out and almost penetrate the three-layer protection. If there is an irreversible phenomenon, please apply to the clean-up department for a second time. Promoted for revision."

"The research and development department has extended the subject change, and has now added Casimir's hunger item. Any individual or studio is acceptable, and the total number of administrative performance points is [-] points."

"Why did Casimir's hunger make Margaret appear? What does her appearance represent? What is the link between the meme trend and the subconscious?"

"Currently all the memes correspond to the thoughts in Kasimir's subconscious ocean. What does the image of Margaret Linguang imply?"

"Mr. Manna, the head of the security department, personally requested three hundred administrative performance points."

"Clear out the meme pollution of Margaret Linguang from the outside world."

"The following is the list of awards for this operation..."

Light blue fonts are constantly appearing on the system's display screen.The bulletin boards in the streets and alleys are full of Hinnom Valley's logo and promotional slogans.

Huge steel-core elevators scattered throughout the entire land. From time to time, people came in and out of those huge steel buildings, wearing the same sharp-edged uniforms and cloaks as the squad, only with a slight difference in color tone.

This place is like the interlacing of dreams and reality, with countless hazy figures passing by, the materialized employees watching the silent progress of the display target in the fully enclosed helmet, only the deep well piercing down from the chaotic sky and Steel pillars can prove that this area may have some connection with the real world.

Black rain and fog lingered on the neon street, covering the surroundings with a faint layer of rain and fog.Under the radiant Hinnom Valley signboards and advertising slogans, the staff resting aside seemed so taciturn.It was as if the entire city had lost the ability to speak, and there was a dead silence everywhere.

And in fact it is.

Primary pollution source: silent screaming.

Any voluntary voice will turn into an incomprehensible angry language, distorting one's own meaning and thoughts, causing great provocation and psychological trauma to others.

The R&D Department and the Research Department believe that this is likely to be a variation of the pervasive negotiation problem on the Terra continent. The communication between people through language will always lead to inevitable twists and distortions, and this kind of anger and resentment is just like this. This submerged area acts as an actual curse, binding the employees who work here.

This kind of huge pollution source that almost covers the entire deep diving area can hardly be removed, but at the same time, his existence means that this area is a safe area in a certain sense.Therefore, this place was chosen as the advance base of the deep diving unit, and countless meme fighters and related personnel of Hinnom Valley were on standby nearby.

Hinnom Valley underground city, deep in the sea of ​​consciousness.

This area between reality and illusion is the area Li Lin arrived at when he started his first critical experiment four months ago.

That experiment resulted in the awakening of four people's spiritual will, 13 people lost their minds, and seven people fell into a vagus state. After being salvaged, they could no longer carry out deep diving activities and could only conduct equipment unit research and development in the outside world.

Any technological ascent comes with a certain degree of risk.The same is true for this seemingly harmless soul technology.No matter how perfect the protection preparations are, no matter how stable the system is, no matter how Li Lin has not slept even once in the past four months, and has been researching and developing without sleep or food, how can I put it this way, the world is still not following him. Thoughts turn.

It's like opening a huge door, although you did it, but what lies behind that door, what shadows and risks lie behind that huge door, that's beyond your ability to judge up.These pictures that seem to appear in dreams do not exist in reality. In fact, their consciousness may still exist in reality, and even talking to people normally, this is just the existence of the spiritual realm.

Only when the spirit begins to stabilize and the boundary is gradually broken, the gap between this fantasy and reality begins to gradually blur.

Even, they now have such a hunting organization in reality that is hunting down those memetic pollutants that escaped from here.

"Is that Linguang again? How many times have we called Linguang recently?"

"Eleven times. Ever since the Chamber of Commerce decided to make Linguang the main publicity target, Casimir's hunger has always been such an image. The director has fired many times over it."

"It's time for him to use force to stop that little sister, right? We, the anti-meme troops, are also very embarrassed by doing this. There is always a feeling of killing her."

"It's okay, I went to see myself, it's much more normal than in the deep diving world."

"Eh? Really? Pretty and cute?"

"At least I don't think her mouth should come out of her stomach, or her eyes stretch out like a telegraph pole... right?"

"With reality anchors, it shouldn't be possible..."

"A lot of little things have escaped. It's not possible now. The future is hard to say."

Squatting in a cafe-like building, countless armored men sat on chairs, and various conversations were constantly refreshed on the monitor.The soft drinks and food for injections also protruded from the sanitary system inside the armor and stuffed them into their mouths.

At the beginning, many people felt uncomfortable with this strange eating method, but because of the rare sitting, they can relax their hands, and they can watch whatever they want to see with their minds, while the mouth just needs to suck. Able to sustain a day's life, this kind of postmodern lifestyle has gradually made the people of the Anti-Meme Unit get used to it.

As operational members of the internal executive department of Hinnom Valley Company, they naturally know what secrets are hidden inside Hinnom Valley.Even this limbo they're in is just one of the by-products.To be precise, the so-called bio-combined technology on the shell of the Hinnom Valley Company is simply a cover, and all the things placed underneath are unimaginable things for Terra.These include but are not limited to soul armament, magic, various unreasonable props, and training instruments that distort the sense of time.

Obviously, they only spent four months underground, but the records of many action groups that have not been deleted by memes have already been recorded for more than a year.

"Speaking of which, I haven't thought about resigning yet."

In the coffee shop, the drinks and liquid food in the sanitation system were replaced, and suddenly a barrage flashed in front of him.

"After such a long time, I don't even have the idea of ​​changing jobs once. Could it be that the company actually used some memetic device on us?"

"It's hard to say, I don't think it's surprising that the company did such a thing."

"Whatever, anyway, the life here is very exciting, the food is delicious, and everyone cares about me. I love this place so much. Why go outside and get involved with those lunatics?"

"It's true..."

Under the rain, the figures of the action team members in the coffee shop gradually faded and turned into nutrition warehouses in the outside world. Under the watchful eyes of the scientific researchers, their expressions were constantly changing, as if they were constantly being touched by their thoughts.
