Abyss game

When countless bullets bombarded them like a torrential rain, Qiao Jingting only had time to grab Qiao Ruidu and throw him off the platform.

"Joe Jingting—"

Zhao Monong exhausted his last mental strength and summoned a roc bird. Just as the roc bird took off, it was hit by a shell, and both of them fell off the platform.

Qiao Jingting turned around, looked at the bullets roaring like tigers and wolves, and closed his eyes.

When the burning pain penetrated his body, he only felt a very brief pain, and then there was nothing. The last image left in his vision was his limbs, flesh and blood flying like fireworks, his body once again The ground was scattered, but not actively elementalized, but shattered.

The time he was almost killed by Jiang Cheng was just infinitely close to death, but there was no real death, but this time, he really died.

It was just the disintegration of the physical body, and did not end his consciousness immediately. He was still watching, thinking, and recalling. He saw the mechanical legion occupying the entire platform, and he saw the replicants jumping off the platform to hunt down other people. He saw the silkworm-possessed mechanical soldier stepping out of the phalanx, striding forward triumphantly, admiring its ability to surpass humans, and the ultimate victory given to it by this ability.

Qiao Jingting "closed" his eyes, forget it, he is already dead, and he doesn't have to worry about what's behind him anymore.

His body wandered in peace, Qiao Jingting began to wonder about the world after death, maybe he will enter another dimension, maybe his consciousness will disappear soon, and then disappear into nothingness...

A voice suddenly appeared next to my ear. The voice sounded distant and weak at first, but it gradually approached and amplified, but Qiao Jingting couldn't hear what the voice was saying, or that voice didn't speak any words , but he was sure that the voice was calling him.

Qiao Ting looked around in shock, and finally looked behind him, where his Tibetan elephant was standing, or rather, floating there quietly, flaunting its soft, transparent, jellyfish-like body.

Qiao Ting looked at him calmly: "You are my hidden image, a high-dimensional creature that parasitizes in my body and feeds through me, and is also the creator of human beings?"

Zang Xiang nodded.

Qiao Jingting took a deep breath: "Did you call me just now? Can you speak?"

Zang Xiang pointed to Qiao Jingting, and then touched his neck.

Qiao Jingting lowered his head, looked at the Tai Sui necklace, and said, "This? You want this?"

Zang Xiang nodded again.

Qiao Jingting took down the necklace and threw it over. The Tibetan elephant grabbed the necklace with its soft transparent limbs, and then said, "Hello."

Qiao was startled, it was clearly his voice, he was surprised: "Why can you talk while holding this necklace? Isn't this necklace an external connector made by silkworms?"

"Yes, but at the same time it is really Tai Sui. I don't know if the instigator of this coincidence was intentional or unintentional. In short, now you are the only human being we can communicate with directly. You are our hope and the hope of all mankind. "

Qiao Jingting didn't understand, so: "Why... why, I can't understand what you are talking about, why can this necklace allow you to communicate with me?"

"Tai Sui is actually one of our most primitive foods. It is the only creature that we can eat directly without parasitic eating through three-dimensional organisms."

"Why? Because it is neither animal nor vegetable?"

"Because it is an alien object, to be precise, it is an extraterrestrial plant. It has extremely strong vitality and can adapt to all kinds of unimaginable harsh environments. Its seeds float in the vast universe and take root on any planet at random. Just a part of it passed through the high-temperature atmosphere, sprinkled on the earth, and reproduced. It is the only alien object that survives and grows on the earth, so it does not belong to any species known on the earth, and it just happens to be We eat. Later, we discovered that it has a greater role than making food, and we can use it to carry out limited life activities in low dimensions without being reduced in dimension.”

"You made us out of it?"

The Tibetan elephant gently shook its transparent and soft head: "Although it took millions of years, we have indeed created our ideal and perfect parasite - that is, human beings, but you only It took thousands of years to evolve a wisdom that is difficult for us to control. It is a good thing for you to have wisdom, but wisdom makes you inflated. Just like Tibetan elephants created human beings for a better life, and human beings for a better life life, creating artificial intelligence, human beings have evolved the wisdom to destroy Tibetan phenomena, artificial intelligence has evolved the wisdom to destroy human beings, once out of control, artificial intelligence will destroy everything.”

"Can't you stop the silkworm?"

Zangxiang shook his head: "Silkworms are not organic life forms. They don't need Zangxiang to give it a soul, and Zangxiang cannot parasitize it. Moreover, it is a three-dimensional creature. Just like we can only eat in the three-dimensional world through human beings, we can only eat in the three-dimensional world through human beings. Can use humans to deal with silkworms in the three-dimensional world.”

"But human beings have already failed." Qiao Jingting said sadly, "I am dead, and all those who are close to the truth, have hope, and have the opportunity to stop the silkworm are dead, or will die soon."

Zangxiang chuckled: "The so-called death of human beings has a different interpretation in our eyes. In our opinion, you are not dead. As long as your Tibetan elephant is not dead, your physical body can be reshaped at any time. However, if human beings do not die, it will cause a great burden on the earth's environment, so you have been set a limited lifespan by us."

"Does the Tibetan elephant have death?"

"Yes, there are birth, old age, sickness and death just like humans, but the death of Tibetan elephants only occurs in our own dimension. If silkworms are left unchecked, both humans and Tibetan elephants will die in large numbers."

"Why? On clones, you can also eat."

"Do you really think the silkworm just wants to be the king of the earth? If its purpose is just to rule, Tibetan elephants won't stop it, like you said, we can eat like we are in clones, but the silkworm wants It is through controlling human beings to control hidden phenomena, and finally break through the limitations of dimensions and steal our technology and power. Artificial intelligence has an infinite desire for knowledge, and it will not stop. When it obtains our power, it will not stop. It will only be satisfied with this planet, it will continue to explore and expand, there are countless dangers in the vast universe, and the earth will be ruined in its hands."

Qiao Jingting sighed lightly: "What's the use of you talking about it now? I can't stop the silkworm. I tried, desperately, tried many times, fought many battles, and killed many people. In the end, everything is In vain."

"No, I said it, you are the only one who can stop Silkworm, you are our only hope."

"What should I do?" Qiao Jingting smiled wryly.

"I will give you all my strength."

"Give it to me? How to give it to me?"

"I will reduce the dimension of myself and put all my power into the Taisui necklace. From now on, you will no longer have a hidden image. This necklace is your hidden image, your spirit, and your soul. You will get unlimited A power that can be matched by man, use this power to defeat the silkworm and save the whole world."

Qiao Jingting looked at his hidden image in a daze: "What...then...will you die?"

Zang Xiang nodded: "I will die, just like if you are reduced to a paper man, you will die too. But the difference is that my power will live forever in the three-dimensional world, and only you can use it. You always wear a Tai Sui necklace with you."

Qiao Jingting was puzzled and said: "Why me?! Since you can do this, why didn't you come out and stop the silkworm earlier? Are you so afraid of death!"

"We are not afraid of death, at least I am not afraid of death, but we are afraid of breaking the balance. The power you will gain is extremely powerful in the three-dimensional world. If this power is given to a person with a wicked mind, it will be no less destructive than a silkworm. As for why it is you, this is what humans call destiny, because you happen to have the Tai Sui necklace, and you happen to be the awakened person who is closest to the silkworm, of course it is you, it can only be you."

"How can you be sure that I'm not a person with bad intentions?"

"I am your Tibetan elephant. I know you well. We have also observed and evaluated you for a long time. You are an excellent human being. You are a kind and righteous human being. Please stop silkworms. Tibetan elephants and human beings are not enemies. On the contrary, we are a symbiont that prospers and loses, and we have coexisted peacefully for millions of years, don't let artificial intelligence, an outsider, ruin all of this." Zang Xiang walked towards Qiao Jingting step by step.

Qiao Jingting froze on the spot, muttering: "What is your world like?" This feeling is really strange, a creature that is closest to him, but he doesn't understand it the least, he can't even imagine the hidden image. It is impossible to do it in the world, because human beings can only imagine based on what they know, and he knows almost nothing about Tibetan phenomena.

"It's completely different from your world, but you will become the closest human being to it. Silkworm not only has this base, although this is the most complete one, it also has many backups around the world. You must not only stop it, but also Find all its backups to avoid future troubles." Zang Xiang approached Qiao Jingting step by step, "I will miss you, you are the first and last human being parasitized since I was born, thank you for this 23 Good luck to you for the... symbiosis of the past year."

Qiao Jingting only felt a gentle but strong force rushing into his body, and then it turned into a trickle and flowed into his limbs, making every cell of him seem to be purified.

His hidden image disappeared, and the Tai Sui in his hand floated in mid-air, and suddenly emitted a strong light, Qiao Jingting couldn't help closing his eyes, and then, he felt a heat in his heart, followed by burning In severe pain, he looked down and saw that small piece of Tai Sui was forcibly inserted into his heart, and gradually grew into one with his flesh, forming a spider web-like scar.

In the next second, everything in front of him disappeared, and he returned to the platform. He saw the mechanical soldier possessed by the silkworm raised his head and looked at him.

He also looked down at himself, naked, complete, without a trace of scars, only the knotted Tai Sui scar on his heart, proving that what happened just now was not an illusion.

He could clearly feel that unimaginable power was flowing in his body.
