Chapter 757 Buzzing

The timing...the timing doesn't match up at all!

Gao Hong and the others were attacked by the dispatched team a few months ago. Although they don’t know the exact number of months, no matter how you calculate it, before Cheng Yanqiu’s team entered the ruins of LS City, Gao Hong’s zombie tribe was already in the B-level food industry. People and flowers have settled on the edge of their territory.

Then, during their migration, this group of living dead would pass through the ruins of LS City earlier than Cheng Yanqiu and the others.

And Qi Lin clearly remembers that Gao Hong said that they felt extremely strong radiation inside the ruins of LS City, which can make the living dead feel that it is a high-intensity radiation value, which is definitely more than thirty or forty points. In addition, Gao Hong also said that at that time, the area around LS City had been "cleared" and there were no mutant creatures wandering in the wild.

However, the information collected by both the Thunder Falcon team and the recovery team showed that although the ruins of LS City were full of suspicions, the situation outside the ruins was exactly the same as other places in the wasteland, without any abnormalities.

Qi Lin sorted out the information and listed three pieces of information.

The first one, Gao Hong’s tribe, has the earliest time point - the ruins have high radiation, and there are mutated creatures in the ruins, which is extremely dangerous. Zombies will be in danger when they move around the ruins during the day, but there are no mutated creatures near the ruins .

The second, Cheng Yanqiu's team and the recovery team, the time point was about two months ago - the radiation intensity in the ruins had dropped below the dangerous line, and there were mutated creatures in the ruins, but the danger level was not high, and the mutated creatures basically disappeared during the day. In a dormant state, it would almost never take the initiative to attack humans who enter the ruins, and around the ruins, there are also traces of mutated biological activity.

Third, Qi Lin, the time, now—the time when the ruins had extremely high levels of radiation, possibly even higher than Gao Hong, and there were no traces of mutated creatures inside or outside the ruins. There was no movement, and there was a dead silence.

If the changes in the intensity of radiation in the ruins were drawn as a curve, it would be high at both ends and low in the middle...Obviously, something must have happened during the interval between these three time nodes, which led to the rise in the ruins of the city. There are such obvious changes in the radiation intensity.

But...what happened?

Qi Lin felt a chill on his back and numbness in his scalp for no reason, as if a pair of eyes were staring at him behind him, and in front of him was a bottomless abyss, and he wanted to pass through this In the abyss, you can only step on the plum blossom piles emerging from the abyss... But these plum blossom piles are of different sizes, have their own heights, and the routes they form are even crooked, and even a large part of them are still hidden in the abyss. What Qi Lin couldn't see in the darkness... One wrong step and his body would be gone.

Qi Lin couldn't help but miss Cooper a little. With that super artificial AI, he could definitely analyze the current situation clearly and find some clues from it, but now, Qi Lin alone, even if he wanted to break Even if it hurts my head...

etc……

Thinking of Cooper, Qi Lin can't help but think of Base 404, and what comes to mind is the silver metal walls full of technology and the soft but not dim white lights of Base 404.

These two things reminded Qi Lin of the atmosphere that often existed in the laboratory.

laboratory……

The organization has been able to confirm that the Mastermind has set up a biochemical laboratory deep in the ruins of LS City... Then, could these strange changes be caused by several different experiments in this laboratory?

Or...are they several different stages of the same experiment...

But...what level of experimentation can bring about changes on this scale? Qi Lin has always felt that that kind of weird meat membrane is already considered a creation of a ghost level, but right now, it seems that the meat membrane is completely out of the question.

"Isn't the mastermind developing some destructive strategic weapons..."

Although this possibility has been completely blocked in the core command of the master brain, Qi Lin began to doubt whether that core command could still limit the master brain. After all, the master brain is the world's first AI that has passed self-awakening. Before this, human beings never thought that the main brain would have autonomous consciousness... Similarly, before this core command was released by the main brain, human beings never thought that the main brain could remove the body that has been worn on the body since its birth. shackles.

Thinking about it a little deeper, Qi Lin broke out in a cold sweat. Since this order may be lifted, the first law of the mastermind is also not safe. Without the constraints of the first law, the survival of human beings will be the same as The main brain has nothing to do with each other, and both sides are intelligent creatures, but have completely different life forms... Then I am afraid that the real version of "Terminator" will soon be staged on the wasteland.

Qi Lin's breathing suddenly became rapid. He had originally insisted that the mastermind could not lift the ban on his own, but if it was not weapons of mass destruction... how could he explain such intensity of radiation?

If it really comes to this point, the complete extinction of human beings may only be a matter of time.

"No, it shouldn't be possible..."

Qi Lin seemed to be comforting himself and said that no one would like to see the master brain break the final restrictions, even those human forces that have already sided with the master brain are no exception.

It is ironic to say that human civilization has ruled the earth for thousands of years from the appearance of writing to the present wasteland era, but at this moment, the life and death of this civilization depends on a simple code to maintain it. Once this code fails, the Sword of Damocles hanging over everyone's head will fall instantly——

Scenes of human extinction have been described countless times in science fiction and movies, and only when this day is really approaching, people will feel that any words and pictures are so pale in the face of irresistible forces.

Before that, Qi Lin's purpose was only to find traces of Cheng Yanqiu, but now, he still has to find out the secrets hidden in the ruins of LS City.

If the mastermind is really conducting experiments related to weapons of mass strategic destruction, then humans must take timely action!

But... how to get into the core of the city's ruins is still a problem that must be faced.

…

…

Qi Lin has already passed through most of the urban-rural fringe area. During this process, he would search a few houses from time to time, but the results of the search were all the same—until now, Qi Lin has not found anyone other than himself. other living things.

However, while searching a two-story building, Qi Lin found something interesting.

A "Panda" semiconductor radio.

This is an extremely old entertainment device. Radios with a single function had been discontinued more than ten years before the outbreak of the war, and more than 90% of the remaining radio stations were used for car broadcasting, like this kind of brick. The home radio can almost be called an antique.

The structure of the semiconductor radio is very simple. Although the circuit board has been corroded to a certain extent, it is not like those delicate high-tech products-Qi Lin was surprised to find that this semiconductor radio can still be used!

The battery in the radio has long been exhausted, but Qi Lin has a battery block prepared for all-terrain off-road vehicles on his body. After adjusting the output power to the lowest level, Qi Lin connected the wires at both ends of the battery to the radio. on top of the electrode.

I don't know why, although there is a risk of exposure, there seems to be a voice in the dark, urging Qi Lin to start this antique radio.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Qi Lin slowly moved the volume knob of the radio with his thumb—the switch of this radio is the volume knob with a diameter of two centimeters on the side. After crossing a small threshold, the indicator light on the radio panel began to light up.

There is no sound, not even the "rustling" electric noise. At this moment, there is no radio station in the wasteland, and electromagnetic wave interference is even less, and the radio can hardly receive anything.

Qi Lin started to turn another slightly smaller knob and started to adjust the frequency...

Suddenly, an extremely piercing buzzing sound resounded throughout the room. Qi Lin was startled, and quickly pulled off the battery block connected to the radio. In a blink of an eye, the room was quiet again.

Qi Lin took several deep breaths in succession, and the buzzing sound still echoed in his cochlea and did not dissipate for a long time.
