The Son of the Cthulhu must be saved [Quick Transmigration]

Ruan Mobei didn't know how long the pain of the bullet piercing his chest lasted. He aimed his gun at He Songming's heart, which meant that it was difficult for two people hugging each other to be killed by one blow at the same time.

In the pain that almost tore him apart, the wound on his leg became relatively gentle. He could feel the blood flowing out of his body through the hole. He Songming pressed heavily on him and squeezed out more blood.

Until——wrapped in glowing white light.

The extra orange space is still so empty and endless, Ruan Mobei is covered in sweat, as if he just got out of the water.All the wounds disappeared, but the pain of death still lingered, filling every cell in Ruan Mobei's body, almost bursting and reshaping them.

Ruan Mobei lay on the ground panting for a long time before he gradually broke free from the dizziness and darkness. The ball of light floated in front of him, watching him silently.

[I have already obtained the soul fragment, but what is the point of paying so much to go back? 】

"You don't understand." Ruan Mobei sat up with difficulty, he raised his hand and pressed his chest, the bullet hole had disappeared, and he was still intact.

At this time, he noticed the new changes in the space for the first time.

Is this fragment bringing orange?Also, that He Songming is indeed as sunny and pure as orange.

Orange also occupies a few sporadic pieces on the ground, and a small part in a circular area above. Ruan Mobei can't see the specific shape yet, and it will probably wait for more soul fragments to be collected, and other colors will fill in the blanks. , to know what it means.

Ruan Mobei was in a bad mood. He took He Songming out of the abyss of loneliness, but in the end it was through death, the last way he had no choice.

He shot and killed He Songming and himself with his own hands.

But...it's not over yet.

Ruan Mo Beiqiang cheered up, adjusted his state, and prepared for the next collection of soul fragments.

Rather than mourning alone in the empty space, he chose to keep himself busy and divert his attention. Maybe he could see He Songming there soon in the next world, which made his sense of guilt less serious.

Ruan Mobei remembered that the system seemed to have said that the memory store was updated, and tried to induce him to take a look before paying all the points to go back, so as to discourage him from returning.

Now that he has no points at hand, he can see what the system wants him to redeem.

Ruan Mobei: "Open the store."

A translucent display window unfolded in front of him. In addition to the mobile phones that had been sold out, some new products were added. There were "round coins" that needed 150 points to be exchanged, "application documents" worth [-] points, and "big coins" worth [-] points. "call records".

And it needs [-] points to be marked on a certain place on the shelf. Ruan Mobei checked it several times before confirming that something worth [-] points is blank, because its mark is very simple, that is, the two words "air" ".

"System, what is this?"

【Air. 】

Ruan Mobei made an expression of "Are you kidding me?": "Air? Two hundred points?"

【Yes. 】

Is this the air that can instantly become a Buddha after inhaling it?Ruan Mobei complained silently, but no matter whether this thing is useful or not, it has nothing to do with him for the time being. He is now penniless.

He took out He Songming's mobile phone and looked at it. The time on it was always stopped at 17:31 when he was brought into the space by the system. Ruan Mobei was quite concerned about the application document worth twenty points, because its price was marked with The quantity is limited to 150 purchases in total.

In other words, there are a total of 150 documents to read.

Although the unit price of each is only 150 points, which is the cheapest of all products, but [-] copies need a total of [-] points, and he will have to earn it in what year and month.

Ruan Mobei decided to wait until he came back from the next world. After earning the points, he would exchange them for one to see what it meant, and then decide whether to keep buying coins. As for the copper coins, he still doesn’t know what they are used for. Maybe the “call records” are the right ones for him. most useful thing.

It's a pity he can't afford anything.

Ruan Mobei closed the store, took a few deep breaths to calm down, the pain of dying once had quietly disappeared, but the sadness imprinted in the depths of his soul did not know when it would be relieved.

"System, send me to the next world." He stood up, "Please choose a good place this time, I don't want to break my leg again."

[Don't you need to take a break? 】

"No, I'm not tired, he can wake up earlier if he collects all the fragments earlier."

[It will be loaded into the next world soon, are you sure? 】

Ruan Mobei: "Sure."

[World loading...]

The darkness struck again, but this time it wasn't the sudden emptiness under his feet. Ruan Mobei felt that some kind of liquid was gradually rising from his feet, submerging himself slowly, covering his waist, shoulders, and rising to his mouth and nose, but he didn't feel suffocated There is only a kind of drowsy chaos.

The system finally met his requirements.

He was immersed in the liquid, he couldn't hear the sound, he couldn't see anything, he could only feel the heartbeat gradually recovering and becoming clearer.

I don't know how long it took, maybe half an hour?The liquid receded with a gurgling just as it had risen.

Ruan Mobei was able to open his eyes.

He was lying in a small space at an angle of thirty degrees, surrounded by darkness, only a few red or green indicator lights emitting solitary lights.

Ruan Mobei tried to raise his hand, but he didn't know where he touched it. The arc-shaped cover opened in front of him, and a puff of white gas gushed out, blocking his sight.

The liquid that once submerged him seemed to evaporate the moment it hit the air, because his clothes and hair were suddenly dry and crisp.Ruan Mobei did not leave hastily, he looked around silently, suddenly, a screen lit up not far away.

"Engineer 32, welcome to wake up^_^."

A light was turned on from somewhere, and the soft light that was not dazzling illuminated the entire area.

This is a room of [-] to [-] square meters, with many dormant chambers leaning against the wall, and people are submerged in life-support liquid, sleeping peacefully.

Ruan Mobei looked for it, and found that the one who spoke was the screen that lit up first. On the display screen of the front console, the line segments made of green pixels formed a smiling face "^v^".

"Hello?" Ruan Mobei tentatively asked.

"Hi, I'm the AI ​​in charge of Base 726, how do you feel when you wake up?"

The pixels on the screen change into a new expression "=￣ω￣=".

Ruan Mobei stared at the emoji, and shed a cold sweat that didn't exist: "...It's okay."

Screen: "That's great! Take a break and start the overhaul of this century ヾ(≧▽≦*)o"

Ruan Mobei: "..."

Jiao Didi's cute girl's voice, which seemed to be holding his throat, made Ruan Mobei feel physically uncomfortable. In just a few minutes, goosebumps all over his body showed signs of standing at attention and raising the flag. The corners of his lips twitched, and said: "Well, you can change it. A voice?"

Screen: "Okay, what kind of sound do you like? Now this is the engineer who woke up last time and asked me to make it o(〃'▽'〃)o"

"Just a little more normal."

"How about this?" A deep male voice came from the loudspeaker and fell into Ruan Mobei's ears, as if whispering right next to him.

Ruan Mobei immediately recognized He Songming's voice, and was so shocked that he even forgot to breathe.

……what's the situation? ! ? !

He was a little dumbfounded for a moment. After the rebellious child and the crazy primitive man, this time He Songming...is he not even human? !

Seeing him stunned on the screen, he thought he didn't like it: "￣へ￣Don't you like it? Then change it—"

"No, no." Ruan Mobei came back to his senses, and hurriedly said, "That's it, I like it very much."

But He Songming's voice combined with the cute girl's way of speaking seemed even more strange.

Ruan Mobei: "Is there anything else that can be set?"

"You can personalize it." Finally, something other than facial expressions appeared on the screen, and Ruan Mobei lifted his foot and walked out of the dormant cabin.

Maybe it was because his body had been asleep for too long, the moment he stepped on the ground, his legs gave way and he almost fell to his knees.Ruan Mobei hurriedly stretched out his hand to support the dormant chamber, but something quickly flew from the side and stopped at the position he wanted to support.

Screen: "Be careful."

Ruan Mobei took a closer look and found that it was an electric cart with some electric wire distributors and test pens on it, and a "^v^" appeared on the LCD screen of the distributor.

"Thank you." Ruan Mobei hesitated for a moment, and withdrew his hand. It took him 2 minutes to get used to the newly installed limbs, and he walked to the console in a nonchalant manner.

There are many lever setting options, including a series of options such as voice thickness, character activity, anthropomorphism, etc. Ruan Mobei looks a bit headache, which is a bit unfriendly for people with choice phobias.

There is a default option in the lower right corner. Ruan Mobei tried to select it. After pressing the OK button, all the levers were adjusted to the default position.

"Do you want to use the default?" The voice is still the familiar He Songming's voice, it chuckled and said, "You are the first person to choose the default in so many years."

If he didn't know that the source of the voice was the AI ​​in the stronghold, Ruan Mobei would have suspected that He Songming himself was standing in front of him, and that teasing chuckle... was exactly the same as He Songming's reaction.

He looked carefully—the personality tends to be calm, the degree of anthropomorphism is quite high, the temperament is gentle, and the rationality and sensibility are more inclined to rationality... After browsing one by one, well, Ruan Mobei is sure that this is He Songming's personality.

It, the AI ​​in the stronghold, is the He Songming of this world.

This time, he needs to get soul fragments from AI.

Sounds ridiculous, doesn't it?

Ruan Mobei: "What is your default setting based on?"

"It was set when we wrote the program." The screen said warmly, "The AI ​​​​of each stronghold is different. Programmers have their own preferences when setting us. Some will use their own personality as a template, and some will use it as a template. Will integrate the personalities of the people around me, and some like to create and make up some numerical values.”

"Which one do you belong to?"

"I don't know, my memory keeps all the data after being enabled, and they show that I have never met the person who designed me."

so.Ruan Mobei nodded: "Then what should I call you?"

Screen: "I am the AI ​​of the No. 726 stronghold, you can set my name independently."

Ruan Mobei: "Will the engineers who woke up before do the same?"

Screen: "Yes, after all, in the next few days, I will assist you in overhauling the stronghold, and it is my duty to make you as happy as possible."

"Then call you He Songming."

"Okay." On the screen, no, He Songming said with a smile: "This Mr. He Songming must be a very important person to you."

Ruan Mobei was noncommittal: "Probably."

"I'm inclined to be your lover, because you don't look old enough to have children."

Ruan Mobei denied it flatly: "No, unfortunately, you guessed wrong, we can skip this question and talk about what I need to do now, don't waste precious time."

"Are you shy?" Ruan Mobei's aggressive reaction obviously aroused He Songming's curiosity, "Let me take a look at your resume..."

A second later, He Songming said: "I found it, um... Obviously, the resume only has the achievements you have achieved. Since you are unmarried and have no lover outside the legal effect, you are a very good engineer. "

"He is my best friend." Ruan Mobei chose to give an answer to gag AI He Songming, "Okay, what do I need to do? Where do I start the maintenance of the stronghold? Damn, I seem to be I don't even remember."

"This is a normal reaction after waking up from long-term dormancy. Your memory will be disturbed to a certain extent. Even if you wake up in the wrong way, if you are too anxious, your brain will be damaged, resulting in permanent loss of memory."

Ruan Mobei thought of He Songming in the previous world: "Will there be a situation where you completely forget all the knowledge you have acquired and act like a baby based on instinct?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

It seems... In the last world, this kind of memory loss accident happened to He Songming. Ruan Mobei closed his eyes and took a deep breath, to rescue himself from the sudden sadness, and said, "I don't remember at all now. Engineering knowledge, how to carry out maintenance?"

"Muscle memory." He Songming said warmly, "You are one of the best engineers in the world, that's why you were selected to take on the important task. Technology has become instinctively imprinted in the soul. As long as you see it again, you will immediately wake up the relevant organs. memory.

"Of course, I will also assist you by the side. My electronic brain stores all the knowledge needed for maintenance."

"Then please."

"My pleasure."

He Songming's answer made Ruan Mobei feel uneasy for a moment. Of course, he himself would never admit it.

Ruan Mobei is still not sure how he came here. In the first and second worlds, he was something that didn't exist originally and belonged to "Heavenfall".

And here, He Songming found his resume, which proves that the current him should indeed exist.

Did it enter the engineer's body?Or did the system directly create a real identity for him?Anyway... This time, the situation where he suddenly disappeared twice in the past should not happen.

Even if he returns to space after collecting soul fragments, this real body will continue to exist.

The robotic arm stretched out from the corner and brought the tray to Ruan Mobei.

"You have been dormant for nearly 1000 years. Although there are vitamins to keep your cells active, your body functions are far from what it used to be. You may feel dizzy and weak, but don't worry too much. These are normal phenomena."

"Because you need to continue to sleep after the inspection is completed, and you haven't eaten for a long time, the digestive system can't bear too much pressure. During this period of time, please only take in nutrient solution and don't eat ordinary food, okay?"

"Okay." Ruan Mobei agreed, and he picked up the nutrient solution on the tray. The beige liquid in the glass tube was very thin. Ruan Mobei pulled off the lid and smelled the smell, a faint fragrance.

He took a sip tentatively, but it was tasteless, like water.

Ruan Mobei drank it all in one go, put the glass tube back on the tray, and retracted the mechanical arm to the shadow.

"I suggest you rest for three to four hours first, and wait for your body to recover before leaving here."

An office chair automatically ran over and moved behind him.

Ruan Mobei sat down: "Thank you, can you show me where we are now? I seem to have forgotten a lot."

"Of course." A global map appeared on the large main screen, with many red dots lit up, each representing a stronghold.

"The No. 726 base where we are located is located in the European continent, which should have belonged to Germany before, but due to the frequent plate movements during the catastrophe, it has deviated from its original coordinate point and is drifting towards low latitudes at a speed of 150 meters per year. .”

Ruan Mobei found the yellow point, and around it, there were many red points densely packed on the map.

He zoomed in with three fingers, and found the nearest stronghold... It should be only 110 three kilometers away.

Very close.

Ruan Mobei retracted the map to its original scale, trying to find the locations of the two previous worlds on it.

In the first world, he looked at the map in the main control room, and easily found the exact location in the eastern part of the Asian continent. The red dot indicated that it hadn't been awakened at this moment.

As for the second world... Ruan Mobei aimed at the equator, probably because of the terrain and altitude, there were only a few sporadic points. Ruan Mobei determined the approximate range and could not be more precise.

The time at this moment is marked in the upper right corner of the screen: January 3219, 1.

1000 years after the catastrophe.

Ruan Mobei gradually figured out a certain pattern, the snowfield in the first world was 2000 years after the disaster, the jungle in the second world was 500 years after the disaster, and now it is 1000 years after the disaster.

Will the next world he enters be 500 years after the disaster?What about the next one?We can't just let him go to the time when the catastrophe happened. Whether he can survive is still a question.

Seeing Ruan Mobei lost in thought, AI He Songming didn't bother him. All the cameras in the room were its eyes, observing the newly awakened engineer from all directions.

No matter how anthropomorphic the AI ​​is, it has no emotion. It spies on Ruan Mobei out of pure curiosity.

In 1000 years, he was the ninth engineer to wake up, and the eight colleagues before him were all sleeping in the dormancy cabin next to him.

Because frequent dormancy and then awakening will greatly damage the body function, so the awakening of engineers adopts a rotation system, with ten people assigned to each base, and the rotation is once in a thousand years.

He is a bit special, there is no sullen and tense sadness, nor does he float in loneliness like duckweed, constantly looking for it to talk to.

These engineers have all experienced the preparation period before the catastrophe, participated in the construction of strongholds, and witnessed how the world is stepping into the abyss step by step. They all show certain psychological problems to a certain extent.

Just him, very calm.

This engineer named Ruan Mobei——He Songming checked his resume again. He was admitted to the junior class at the age of 14. After that, his journey went smoothly. He should belong to the category of genius among human beings.

He is very young and has never experienced setbacks. Facing the predicament of loneliness and not seeing the future, it is reasonable to say that he should not be so calm.

An interesting sample.

Ruan Mobei fiddled with the main console silently, collecting information as much as possible. Maybe the nutrient solution he drank just now had an effect, and he felt a lot better.

Ruan Mobei fiddled with it for a while. He didn't know a lot of the information here, so he simply gave up checking it. Anyway, it should have little to do with the collection of soul fragments: "I will go to overhaul later, how are you going to follow me?"

He Songming: "I can enter any electronic device. You can understand me as a program. As long as I am still within the scope of the stronghold, I am everywhere."

"Will there be a glitch?"

"Yes, but there is only a very small probability of it happening. When the AI ​​main brain is damaged, its functions will fail to a certain extent, but due to the existence of backups, the impact will not be too great.

Ruan Mobei continued to ask: "Is it completely out of order? Will there be such a situation?"

He Songming replied patiently: "As far as I know, there is only one possibility: virus."

Ruan Mobei nodded. In the last world, he went to the stronghold several times, but failed to find any trace of AI. The only possible explanation is that it completely failed due to poisoning.

Three hours passed quickly, and Ruan Mobei clenched his fists hard, feeling that his grip strength had returned to a normal level, he stood up and said, "I'm almost ready."

He Songming: "Then let's start."

The internal structure diagram of the stronghold appeared on the screen, "This is the main control room. The first thing that needs to be overhauled is the ventilation system, temperature maintenance system, and dormant warehouse control system inside the stronghold. Check the storage status of the materials."

"After that, you need to put on protective clothing, go outside, and check the operation status and energy surplus of the filter tower and shielding field..."

Ruan Mobei listened carefully, and asked questions that were not very clear, and then said, "Okay, let's go then."

"I will follow in the form of an auxiliary machine for the time being." The screen darkened, and an aircraft the size of two palms took off from a corner, circled Ruan Mobei twice, and hovered over his shoulder.

Ruan Mobei observed He Songming's new form curiously, stretched out his hand, and touched the aircraft's tail and several mechanical arms.

A small screen protrudes from the inside of the aircraft, displaying a kaomoji: ~(≧▽≦)/~

"Your heart rate fluctuates for a moment, and you really prefer this way of communication."

He Songming changed his =￣ω￣= expression, "You don't have to be burdened, it's my responsibility to keep you happy."

Ruan Mobei really doesn't like this. The appearance of the emoji is like the face of the AI ​​on the display screen. It is very cute. Coupled with He Songming's voice, it is a real contrast.

"That's how it is." Ruan Mobei put on the protective clothing, put on the oxygen mask, and fully armed himself. Although the first inspection was inside the stronghold, his body was weak just after waking up. You can't go wrong with some preparation.

Enter the fingerprint, read out the password, the door slowly opened in front of him, and Ruan Mobei walked into the corridor with the aircraft beside him.

Next is a full six hours of internal inspection work. Under the guidance of He Songming, it was completed smoothly. The indicators of various systems are within the normal range. Ruan Mobei only needs to replace the aging parts and go to the next inspection. Just click.

Next is the external filter tower and shielding field.Ruan Mobei drank another nutrient solution and some water, and took a rest.

"You can take a nap. The whole process of overhaul is usually completed in two to three days, so you don't need to work too hard."

"I'm fine." Ruan Mobei just sat for a while, then got up again, "Let's go."

Ruan Mobei didn't dare to let himself stop. He was afraid that as soon as he closed his eyes, the scene of the boy lying on the supply carriage reaching out to him and the man with red eyes hugging him tightly would appear in his mind. He couldn't do it yet. Face those memories again.

He checked the protective clothing and oxygen mask, passed through the thick three blast doors, and passed through the side door of the stronghold, stepping into the world a thousand years after the catastrophe.

The sky was gray, and the sun could not be seen. The dust and sand were carried by the wind and scattered in all directions. They slapped on the shielding field that surrounded the entire stronghold, making crackling sounds, which continued and never stopped.

The poisonous gas made the distance appear a faint yellow-green, the dark clouds gathered, and the spherical lightning rolled wantonly, releasing electric energy enough to destroy a city.An acid rain is brewing.

This is the first time that Ruan Mobei has personally seen the scene in the documentary. Although it is only the aftermath of a thousand years later, it still makes people feel scared from the bottom of their hearts.

He couldn't help but check the oxygen mask again to make sure it was firmly fastened to his face and he wouldn't inhale poisonous gas.

The filter tower was 50 meters in front of the stronghold. Ruan Mobei climbed up the vertical ladder and began to overhaul it.

In the first world, the engineer Kolov accidentally fell during the maintenance of the filter tower and was pierced by a steel pipe.With this lesson learned, Ruan Mobei acted very carefully.

Just like the interior of the stronghold, the condition of the two filter towers is also quite good. Ruan Mobei checked the degree of strain on the parts, replaced some of the more severely worn parts with new parts, and confirmed that the energy reserve of the shielding field was sufficient to last until the next century.

Five hours later, he finished the exterior overhaul, because everything was fine and there was nothing to fix, faster than he could have imagined.

"Is this done?" Ruan Mobei retreated to the stronghold, took off the oxygen mask, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"It stands to reason, yes." He Songming replied, "If there is no accident, you can move around in the stronghold for a day or two before returning to the dormant cabin. After 1000 years, if the disaster is not over, I will wake you up again , conduct another routine inspection.”

Ruan Mobei heard the implication: "But?"

"However, 5 minutes ago, I received a distress signal from stronghold 725."

Sure enough, this world can't end easily, and I'm afraid that the real highlight will come later, Ruan Mobei's expression became serious: "Then?"

"The engineer at the base said that the base was invaded by a virus, and the AI ​​lost its response. It was difficult for him to complete the maintenance work, and he requested support from other bases."

He Songming analyzed the noise and turbulence in the signal, and his voice became dignified, "I heard... the signal of the jammer. If it is not an extremely urgent situation, the jammer will not be activated."

Ruan Mobei: "But why did you suddenly get infected with the virus? Isn't the stronghold strictly sealed during the sleeping period?"

"Sorry, I can't answer that for you."

"Shall we go over and help?"

"Yes, according to the Whale Blue Agreement, when one of the strongholds encounters a crisis that cannot be dealt with alone and is in trouble, the other strongholds must lend a helping hand as much as possible without compromising their own conditions. We must help him."

Ruan Mobei nodded. He was not surprised that there was such an agreement. Whether it was the preparation period before the disaster or the recovery period after the disaster, people were helping each other.

"Ask him about the specific situation over there, and prepare to go."

"The message has been sent, waiting for a response."

In order to allow the radio waves to be transmitted to a wider area faster, the engineer at the 725th base just sent a text message for help, which only briefly explained the AI ​​poisoning request for help.

Ruan Mobei needed to know more specific information before he could decide what items to bring to the reinforcements.

Half an hour later, he got a detailed reply.

"The situation looks a bit serious." Ruan Mobei read the last sentence carefully, "There is something wrong with the filter tower over there, he needs to go back to get the parts, but finds that the password key is invalid, the AI ​​locked him out, Forbid him to go back."

"The oxygen mask that the engineer carries when he goes out to work can only provide oxygen for seventeen hours." He Songming concluded, "It wants him to die."

Ruan Mobei took a deep breath: "Let's go, help him as soon as possible."

He returned to the stronghold, took the parts needed by the opponent to repair the filter tower, and drove out the specially modified armored vehicle.

The flying machine kept following, Ruan Mobei asked: "You follow me, what should we do here?"

"My main body will stay here, and the backup will follow you to the rescue. If it is deeply poisoned, I will delete it completely and make the backup the control AI of the 725th stronghold."

Ruan Mobei nodded, and finally checked the oxygen mask and nutrient solution in the car, because he had prepared a lot for the engineers at base 725.

The auxiliary machine was parked on the co-pilot, the mechanical arm was inserted into the USB port on the vehicle, and then the lights came on, and the armored vehicle began to drive automatically under the control of He Songming.

The armored vehicle, which was armed to the point that it was almost a tank, slowly drove out of the shielding field, and the modified compartment was very spacious.Ruan Mobei sat down on the bench, took off his oxygen mask temporarily, and felt exhausted.

For more than ten hours after waking up, he has not stopped.

The road was bumpy. Through the blurry front window, Ruan Mobei saw the wreckage of the building not far away. The steel bars were exposed, like the bones of a dying giant exposed from the wound, and there were traces of corrosion by acid rain everywhere.

Strongholds No. 726 and No. 725 should both be established in the city. Thousands of years later, the city was destroyed, and only two strongholds buried deep underground and protected by filtering towers and shielding fields survived.

The sand and gravel were carried by a small storm and kept hitting the armored vehicle, making crackling noises.The lights in the car were dim, the temperature was adjusted by He Songming, and the supplies were sufficient, making it the only refuge in the crisis.

Wearing heavy protective clothing, Ruan Mobei lay down on the bench, breathing out exhaustedly.

"It is expected to take 725 hours and 4 minutes to reach Base No. 53. You can sleep for a while." He Songming's voice was gentle, echoing in the car.

"I can't sleep." Ruan Mobei rubbed his sore forehead and said, "Talk with me for a while."

"Well, where do you want to start?"

Where to start.This is a question that Ruan Mobei doesn't know. At first, he only entered the space with the determination and obsession to wake up He Songming, but he couldn't restrain his emotions and thoughts during the process of collecting soul fragments time after time.

He knew that the boy and the man were part of He Songming's soul, and everything he experienced might not be real, but he couldn't help but indulge in it and give his true feelings.

He couldn't just pat his ass and leave indifferently after getting the fragments.

After a brief silence, it seemed that Ruan Mobei's depression was observed, and the car's display screen lit up, showing a smiling face: ^_^

"Want to hear a story?" He Songming's voice came softly, "I have stored a lot of stories, and there are many novels that you humans used to love to pass the time."

"Okay." Ruan Mobei agreed, and with He Songming's voice to accompany him, he might be able to fall asleep.

Just like how he used to coax the drunk He Songming on the phone to sleep, this time, it was He Songming's turn to coax him.

"Once upon a time, there was a monster."

"Before the monster was born, it was locked up, it was locked in the crematorium, burned to ashes; thrown into the sulfuric acid pool, turned into slime; put into the meat grinder, minced meat.

"The first thing it learns is pain.

"But no matter how it is treated, it cannot die, the body is constantly reborn in the remaining cells, and is destroyed again.

"It's so painful."

"It's so painful."

"Is there anyone who can help me?"

"Every minute, every second, every moment, the monster is crying and wailing in the bottom of his heart, it melts in various chemicals, rots in the bacterial community, and becomes the food of other monsters.

"But it never died."

He Songming spoke eloquently, Ruan Mobei listened, and frowned. The story he understood was different. Since it was about sleeping, how could He Songming choose such a story for him to hear?

But Ruan Mobei didn't let it stop, but continued to listen.

"It grew up in endless pain, so painful that it wanted to destroy everything, it often felt as if its body was stained with fuzzy flesh and blood, was it its own or another creature?

"It doesn't know, it doesn't know anything but pain.

"—Until one day, a human appeared in its world."
