Embers Ad Infinitum

Because the "unintentional ones" are still killing each other, Jiang Baimian only cares about the direction, does not know the road, and will never stop. And the scope of her own abilities is still large, not to mention the equipment on her body, so she fought back three waves. After the attack, he successfully broke out of the small city that was suspected to be the "New World" in reality.

Of course, this was a bit far from her expected target position, which meant that even if she only looked at the direction, there would be deviations.

Fortunately, this was expected. She was not depressed. She looked down at the mountain pattern and formed a circle around the city.

Running wildly, it took her less than ten minutes to cover more than half of the circle, and she saw the heavy iron-black door at the entrance and exit of the tunnel.

"It's okay..." Jiang Baimian breathed a sigh of relief.

She quickly opened the door, walked to Shang Jianyao, and knelt down on one knee.

Jiang Baimian quickly completed the process and saw Shang Jianyao's figure, but before she could speak, the guy waved his right hand:

"I just happen to have something for you!"

"Me too." Seeing that Shang Jianyao was still bouncing around, Jiang Baimian's heart suddenly fell back to its original position.

Shang Jianyao was very humble this time:

"Then you speak first."

Jiang Baimian did not give in and said directly:

"I found something in that whirlpool-shaped building..."

She started from the contents of the human brains and the corresponding sticky notes, and continued to the corpses of Zhao Danlin, Winster Garland and the area that she could not enter yet.

"I met Winster Garland!" Shang Jianyao clapped his hands together.

If the posture didn't allow it, he would definitely pat his thigh.

"Have you met?" Jiang Baimian thought that after the turmoil started, Shang Jianyao would be in crisis, but he didn't expect that he would face the suspected thief, Winston Garland, so quickly.

"Yes." Shang Jianyao sighed for a while, "He was eating bear biscuits while threatening me. Fortunately, 'Bodhi' helped me block it for a while, so I was able to run away smoothly."

Having said this, he emphasized:

"Winster Garland is suspected of being the 'Twisted Shadow' of April."

"I guessed it." Jiang Baimian said calmly, "If this is the case, then Zhao Danlin, the administrative director of the Eighth Research Institute, is probably the big boss."

"Wow." Shang Jianyao exclaimed in admiration, "He is indeed a big boss."

He immediately raised questions:

“But, as the administrative director of the Eighth Research Institute, why can she become the big boss of our ‘Pangu Biology’?

"This is irrelevant."

Jiang Baimian thought about it and said:

"The big boss is responsible for the exchanges between the Eighth Research Institute and other research institutes. He most likely knows the existence of the underground building and knows that there are a group of people doing genetic research. When she becomes the executive, considering that her body cannot be preserved, Come down, already dead, and have plans to form a 'Pangu creature' to prepare a perfect body for yourself, well, this is also captive food."

The first employees of "Pangu Creatures" were not the first to enter the underground building after the destruction of the old world. They also experienced the outbreak of "careless disease" and the chaos of the situation, and then hid underground under the guidance of certain people. , established "Pange Biology".

In terms of time points, this is consistent with Jiang Baimian's speculation.

"Yes, yes!" Shang Jianyao immediately agreed, "'Truth' said, the big boss has prepared a batch of suitable bodies for those Zhi Sui and Quasi Zhi Sui who want to leave the 'New World'."

"'Truth' is telling you this?" Jiang Baimian was quite surprised.

"He said a lot..." Shang Jianyao suddenly stopped, and then said angrily, "He lied to me!"

It would be unusual for him not to lie to you... Jiang Baimian muttered in his heart.

She asked cooperatively:

"What did he lie to you about?"

"He said that before obtaining the body, he and Zhi Sui were gods, completely different creatures from humans, so it is only natural to extract human consciousness for food." Shang Jianyao said angrily, "He also said that Zhi Sui's position is only Thirteen, under normal circumstances, it is impossible for anyone to replace them, so they can suppress all awakened people and establish an order that is conducive to the survival and development of mankind, liar!"

Now it seems that each Zhi Sui's field corresponds to a certain part of the human brain, and because the functions of different areas of the human brain overlap, there will be certain overlaps in the control abilities of different Zhi Sui.

After stripping away the content of occultism and leaving only science, no matter Shang Jianyao or Jiang Baimian, there is no reason why an awakened person cannot be found.

As long as he can develop the corresponding areas of his brain in a step-by-step manner and increase his strength to the extreme, he can hope to become a leader.

As for how to develop it, there must be corresponding content in the results of the Eighth Research Institute, but there is a greater risk and probability of failure, otherwise the executives would not have lost their bodies in the original disaster.

"If this secret is spread, and the major forces are controlled by Zhi Sui behind them, those awakened people in the 'soul corridor' will be ready to take action. At that time, the Eighth Research Institute will be the target of public criticism and the target of attacks with hidden treasures." Jiang Baimian sighed sincerely.

The path to "becoming a god" is right there, and it's impossible for most people to calm down.

Shang Jianyao suddenly understood:

"No wonder the 'Vice Dean' said that if the secrets they guard are leaked, the dust will fall into eternal chaos and endless disasters."

"This is just a possibility. In the end, a small group of people should become 'gods' and rule the remaining ignorant people. As for how many people will die in the process, no one knows." Jiang Baimian relied on experience and Feeling said.

She didn't have time for in-depth analysis.

Without giving Shang Jianyao a chance to change the subject, Jiang Baimian took the initiative and asked:

"What other things did 'Truth' tell you? Why did he tell you these situations?"

Shang Jianyao told Jiang Baimian the key points of his exchange with "truth".

"There is a certain degree of credibility, but the details are definitely filled with a lot of lies." Jiang Baimian said bluntly, "It should be true that those who wanted to break free from the shackles of the 'New World' and return to the dust. It's probably true that the boss has prepared a batch of suitable bodies for them. The rest are either modified or just casually promised. At least I think they still have the idea of ​​getting rid of the suppression of 'Zhuang Sheng', and once they are gone With the suppression of 'Zhuang Sheng', no one can predict what these Zhi Sui, who have long been alienated into non-human beings, will do."

Based on the fact that she didn't know enough, she didn't go into detail about what "truth" might be deceiving Shang Jianyao, except for the undeniable lies that the Zhi Sui were originally gods.

"Then what should we do next?" Shang Jianyao asked naturally.

Jiang Baimian said "hmm":

"After listening to the arguments of those who want to change the status quo, you must understand the reasons of those who maintain the status quo. Listen to the truth and the opposite. The more comprehensive you have the situation, the better you will know what decision to make."

Bang bang bang, Shang Jianyao clapped his hands:

"good idea."

After giving the thumbs up, he changed the subject:

"However, as soon as those Zhi Sui who want to maintain the status quo see me, they want to peel my skin and bones, turn it into spiritual power and inhale it into their bodies, without giving me a chance to communicate at all!"

"That's true..." Jiang Baimian was not distracted by the difficulties of this reality and said while thinking, "There are those who want to maintain the status quo who are friendly to us, such as 'Shattered Mirror', she is probably Lin Sui. If you meet, you can try to communicate. Also, you can also understand why Bodhi turned to the Change Situation Sect. Well, it is also strange that he asked the monks to give up their bodies and enter the New World. , finally, you have to directly ask 'Zhuang Sheng', a friendly personality, why he established that order and restrained the leaders."

"Understood." Shang Jianyao responded with high spirits, "I'll go now."

In order to ensure that his energy would not be exhausted in the next few hours, Jiang Baimian did not dare to communicate too much, so he nodded and said:

"good."

She was about to release her consciousness when Shang Jianyao suddenly raised his hand:

"Wait a moment!"

Seeing Jiang Baimian looking over, he quickly explained:

"Did you just say that the abilities of awakened people come from the development of the brain, and that the area that you cannot enter currently may contain highly sophisticated products that stimulate the brain and prompt humans to enter the 'god forbidden zone'?"

Jiang Baimian was stunned for a moment, then the corner of his mouth moved slightly:

"Did you just find out?"

The focus of her sharing is obviously this aspect!

Shang Jianyao laughed:

"I'm just making sure.

"Wait a minute, you take my body to the whirlpool-shaped building. Once you can enter that area, see if you can use the experimental results there to stimulate my brain and promote me from the 'New World' to the executive level. .”

Jiang Baimian thought briefly and said:

"good."

She then added:

"I almost forgot to mention that I will carry your body to the second research area to avoid having to run back and forth every time we communicate and waste time."

It would be okay if she wasn't a "road freak". With the blessing of a military exoskeleton device, it takes less than ten minutes to go back and forth.

Unfortunately, there is no if.

"Just right!" Shang Jianyao laughed, waved his hand and said, "Come on, everyone!"

After the exchange, Jiang Baimian placed Shang Jianyao's body behind the military exoskeleton device and fixed it tightly with straps.

Then, she checked the non-cardinal and other biological agents, glanced at the crate containing the nuclear warhead, lifted it up, and held it in front of her with her left hand.

Jiang Baimian then turned to the exit of the tunnel, hesitated for a few seconds, sighed softly, and ran towards the small city.

…………

In the "maze", Shang Jianyao slowed down his running pace and once again opened the doors of different colors on both sides.

Door after door, he encountered no one.

After walking like this for about ten minutes, Shang Jianyao's eyes suddenly solidified.

Directly in front of him, at the end of the corridor, a blood-red door appeared.

"Where are the people? Where are the people?" Shang Jianyao was very disappointed, "Have they all been stopped? I couldn't find anyone to chat with!"
