SHEEP

Yi Heye had long guessed that SHEEP was the last line of defense to defend Area A. Seeing the sheep elements dotted here and there, this guy probably didn't intend to hide it.

Although the outside world spread the heinous character of this guy, but based on Yi Heye's understanding of him, he usually bluffed more often, but he never really did anything outrageous.

When holding them back with sweet dreams, Yi Heye could feel his mercy. After entering the foggy area, he arranged brick cracks on the ground, in fact, to prevent them from being exhausted after they got lost.

The monsters used to distract Yi Heye's attention were also behind him, which prevented him from accidentally injuring his teammates to the greatest extent. From this, it can be inferred that the three goat monsters must also be used as a cover to confuse him, not You really have to confront your teammates with yourself.

From beginning to end, his purpose was to get them out of Area A, and he had no intention of causing any casualties.

Just as he was thinking, Yi Heye felt a warmth behind him, took the time to turn around, and found that all the fog behind him had cleared, and the sun was shining on the way he had come——the way home was smooth.

But in front of him, the dark and dense fog blocked his vision, exuding an uncomfortably coldness, and one glance would make one shudder——the road ahead was full of darkness.

The shape of the mist also obviously showed a shape that is difficult to appear in nature, as if blocked by a wall, there is no natural transition between dark night and day, but a blunt dividing line, dividing the field of vision into black and white halves.

Yi Heye stood in the middle, with half of his body in the shadow and half of his body in the light.

The meaning is obvious, it's almost like an extremely humble pleading - as long as you are willing to turn around, it will be unimpeded.

Yi Heye also understood what he meant.

Just buried in the fog for such a short period of time, Yi Heye was a little overwhelmed. Looking at the bright sun behind him and the cloudless sky, he even felt a sense of trance.

No matter when and where, light is always a huge temptation.

He turned around and took a few deep breaths of fresh air in the direction of his way home.

But in the next second, he turned around resolutely.

"You know, no one can stop me, not even you."

Yi Heye turned around, took a step, and resolutely walked back into the haze.

"It's not anyone's fault, it depends on your position." Yi Heye murmured in a low voice, "Try to stop me, I'll wait for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fog in front of him suddenly became dark.

He subconsciously stopped, and when he raised his head, the prospect that should have been a vast expanse of whiteness seemed to be torn out with an extremely strange black gap like a big hole.

If you look closely, there seems to be a black vortex churning inside, like a terrifying beast with a huge mouth open to the abyss.

As if wanting to draw some strength, Yi Heye once again looked back at the sun shining behind him.

Emotion told him that Jian Yunxian would never do anything excessive to him, but his intuition told him that the road ahead was more bumpy than he imagined.

First, the fingertips touched the black vortex, and then the whole person seemed to be pulled by a giant hand, and fell straight into it.

Yi Heye was dizzy for a long time at first, almost kneeling on the ground directly.

The strong desire to vomit made him stay where he was for half a minute, until the feeling was suppressed for half a minute, and Yi Heye slowly raised his head.

The dense fog in front of him has dissipated, and the picture in front of him still makes people feel very uncomfortable.

This world is a piece of darkness, this is not the darkness of night, Yi Heye can clearly feel that it is daytime now.

But there are thick black clouds in the sky, or black smoke from a chimney, like pieces of tumbling ink, piled up on the horizon, firmly blocking the only ray of sunlight in the sky.

Yi Heye looked up at the sky, and at the huge factories gradually rising all around, the familiar streets gradually extending under his feet, and the lingering passers-by pouring out from both sides of the road at some point, the familiar memories came back to his mind loudly--

This is what Area D looked like during the big pollution period.

Yi Heye immediately thought of the treacherous big pollution scene created by Fang Chunyang in LIFE.

But if you take a closer look, you can find that there is an essential difference between the two - the pictures in LIFE are mainly fictional, and use extremely exaggerated techniques to magnify the typical characteristics of that era for him to see. Corridors, distorted spaces, and ever-changing images, everything tells him that this is a weird game world.

But the picture in front of me is different, everything here is extremely realistic, or in other words, this is the projection of past reality.

The location where Yi Heye is now is an abandoned children's park near the slums. At this time, children in twos and threes are wandering around the gate of the park. They seem to want to go in, but they don't have the courage.

When I was a child, I was one of the army of children wandering around this door.

He has a deep impression of this place, and he always wanted to go there when he was a child, but his mother kept scaring him, saying that the slide there would eat people, and many children who sneaked past never returned.

Yi Heye walked carefully to the slide.The slide had been corroded by rust and had horrible holes, and a layer of thorny vines that looked very hideous was still attached to it, and a layer of black moss was stuck to the metal handrail, which looked very creepy.

All of this matched his memory, but at this time, Yi Heye could understand from the perspective of an adult that the vines and moss on the slide were all poisonous plants that mutated during the period of great pollution. The slide was corroded and rusted by the acid rain, and children scratched a little while playing, either poisoned or at risk of tetanus, and of course there was no return.

Yi Heye stared blankly at the slide, then at the children behind him who were dressed in ragged clothes, pale, and kept coughing. He waved his hands: "Go home!"

The children scattered and disappeared into the thick black mist.On the whole street, only Yi Heye was left standing there.

The small paradise just now is a microcosm of the whole world. Looking up, those old buildings that have not been demolished have been wrapped into huge coffins by the overgrown poisonous plants. The whole street seems to be covered with a layer of sticky liquid. There is always a strong sour taste in it.

Perhaps because of the pollution, there were no people and few cars on the road. The shops on both sides of the road were closed without exception. The dilapidated scene inside is shown to everyone.

The whole city seemed to be dead.

Without dramatic, hideous and shocking horror images, darkness and lifelessness are the epitome of the reality of that era.

On the side of the road, several crows were gnawing on the carcass of an unknown animal, leaving behind a long series of echoing crow calls.

Yi Heye moved to the middle of the crossroads, watched them flap their wings and flew towards the gray sky, and felt an inexplicable fear crawling up——

This is the end of the human race.

The penetrating intrusion made him feel chills in his bones. It wasn't until he stood still for a long time that he suddenly remembered that he was going on his way. All of this was SHEEP's way to stop him.

So he quickly closed his eyes and recalled the route he had come from.

Hurrying on his way, Yi Heye tried his best to block out all the pictures around him, and readjusted his pace.

The moment he withdrew his gaze, a voice suddenly rang in his ear: "Do you know what you saw?"

The timbre of this voice is the superimposition of Jian Yunxian's voice and SHEEP's voice in the form of a little sheep. It sounds like a machine with its own echo-this is the first time Yi Heye has experienced such a strong voice from this person. mechanical sense.

He froze for a moment, but didn't make any answer, just lowered his head and continued to walk forward.

Seeing that he didn't reply, the voice continued: "This is not the past, or rather, this is not just the past—this is the world after hope is shattered."

With a sound of "wow", an old car drove by the side of the road, and Yi Heye couldn't help but raise his eyes. The next second, the car crashed into a tree trunk beside the green belt, and ignited a raging fire.

Yi Heye's heart twitched, and just as he was about to go over to help, he realized that the people sitting in the car had long since turned into a pile of bones. They probably died while driving, but they kept speeding on the road by autopilot until the car stopped. After all the energy was exhausted, he rushed straight to the green belt in front of him as if he could never recover.

Jian Yunxian's voice revealed deep helplessness: "Yi Heye, you really can't go any further."

The cracks in the bricks guiding the direction under Yi Heye's feet completely disappeared, and the street scene in front of him was twisted and changed wildly.Looking up, at the end of the road, poisonous vines rushed towards him like countless dancing pythons.

Like a huge tsunami, the giant vines that rose from the ground broke through the tall buildings and factories in front of them, flooding the flow of people and vehicles in the city, and everything within sight was overturned, punctured, and smashed.

This was an unprecedented nightmare. The entire world was engulfed in an instant like a collapse of despair, and the overwhelming sense of oppression could almost force people to faint on the spot.

Going into a coma, retreating, or even staying in place, at least this scene has a deterrent effect to some extent.

But Yi Heye didn't agree.

He just gently closed his eyes a second before the tip of the vine pierced his throat.

At that moment, just as he had expected, Jian Yunxian would not hurt him at all—the rapidly tumbling vines bypassed him, and the rugged ground and abyss automatically moved away from his feet.And what flashed in his mind was the cry of grief and indignation outside the wall, as well as overwhelming doubts and scolding.

"I only know that hope should not be deception and concealment." Yi Heye said, "If there is really so-called 'hope' on the other side of the wall, I should see it with my own eyes, give an explanation to the people outside the wall, and give the people outside the wall an explanation. You are innocent."

"It seems that you won't dispel my illusion." Yi Heye said while taking out a dagger from the back of his waist, "Then I can only do it myself."

"...What are you going to do?!" The moment he saw Yi Heye's movements clearly, Jian Yunxian's voice finally became flustered.

Just as he was about to do something to stop him, he watched the man poke the tip of the knife straight behind his ear, burying the important part of the brain-computer interface——

"Dig out the chip, you should be helpless, right?" Yi Heye laughed.
