Uplifting Journey

Chapter 305: Negotiations with You, A World with Abnormal Painting Styles

"Welcome again?"

Seeing the sudden appearance of a middle-aged thin man in a white coat and his obviously problematic words, Cheng Bin did not show any surprise on his face.

Because he was in it, Cheng Bin paid a little attention to the various changes in the subspace of Foundation Site No. 62. When he put the avatar into the cage where ***-173 was, he noticed *** ***Manipulated***-004 distorted this piece of time and space.

To put it simply, the space-time region where Cheng Bin and ***-173 are located is stripped and sunken, distorting the scale of time, and making the time flow of Cheng Bin's avatar much slower than the outside world.

The ***-004 in its original state can shred people who use it improperly, and the fragments are scattered to different spaces and times in the turbulent flow of time and space. strangeness.

Seeing that the foundation took advantage of the time gap to deal with other various out-of-control incidents involving containment, and did not show any follow-up hostility, Cheng Bin didn't care about it, and continued with his own ***-173 Observe the experiment.

As for the guy who looked like O5-2 "Dr. T" in front of him, Cheng Bin was not surprised when he said his name directly.

After all, when he used the ontology to conduct a global scan from bottom to top, he had thoroughly searched all the existing records of ****, even the copy of his own that was mentioned in the previous meeting of the O5 council- He read the X-Files.

It’s just that ****’s deeper secrets and the detailed content and appendices of his files are all stored in the memories of O5 members whose real life forms and information complexity are quite abnormal. Cheng Bin didn’t dig deeper. .

Anyway, before the crossing, the matching information given by the system included a lot of interesting contained objects in ****, such as time trains, time machines, etc., **** high-level O5 council Cheng Bin is not surprised that the members can meet him repeatedly for the first time across the timeline.

Although in theory, one more dimension of attribute information is mastered on the quantum foam, the bottom unit of the universe, it can achieve a crushing effect on low-dimensional people in battle, not to mention the extremely important dimension of time up.

But Cheng Bin still didn't feel any pressure.

For one thing, whether it is the high-dimensional life that has come into contact with at present, or the organization of **** with the help of abnormal containment objects, even the Great Unification Field has not really penetrated deeply, let alone the intuitive interference with the underlying units of the universe.

Secondly, although Cheng Bin's main consciousness only occupies one point on the world line and time axis, he is not a real ordinary life. The volume of high-dimensional information behind him is not small, and he is not afraid of these high-dimensional blows that do not know why .

To be honest, if Cheng Bin is willing, with the current accumulation and the help of the inner domain, he can be promoted to a high-dimensional life that is not much worse than Hongjun in the vitality world in the blink of an eye, and start to spread to the upstream and downstream of multiple world lines and time axes grow, but this is not what he and the system want.

Back to the topic, judging from the behavior of merely sinking his avatar into the trough of time and space, it shows that **** even if he can cross the time axis and the world line to contact him many times, he still has not realized his Exactly what kind of form the main body is and what level it exists in, it can be regarded as exposing many limitations of their power at hand.

"O5-2, Dr. T, right?" Cheng Bin archived the analyzed data of ***-173 for later comparison and analysis with the data of other contained items, then turned to look at the man in the white coat next to him, he His eyes seemed to be looking at something else through the figure of the man.

"Yes, it's a pleasure to meet you in such a peaceful setting, Mr. Cheng Bin."

Some subtle glances at ***-173, which was motionless at all, Dr. T knew that it was impossible for his projection to restrict ***-173's actions by "direct witnessing", but now Cheng Bin in front of him also looked at Turning to him, ***-173 did not make any movement as if he was still being stared at.

Although similar scenes have been seen in the past timelines, the situation was much more urgent than now, and Dr. T did not have the opportunity to ask the reason, so he asked curiously: "What did you do to 173? Have you cracked the anomaly on it?"

Cheng Bin glanced at the motionless reinforced concrete doll, and said casually: "I still need more research to compare the principles of its super-strong defense and mobility. At present, it is only slightly modified to recognize 'direct witnesses'." It can be regarded as being in a state of direct witnessing permanently, which can be regarded as temporarily incapacitating, so you don’t have any objections?”

The projection of Dr. T shrugged his shoulders, and said in a brisk tone: "Of course not, the purpose of our foundation includes the content of destroying harmful containment, and it is best to destroy such containment that is full of maliciousness to life. Yes, the past just didn’t find a proper way, so we can only use time and space to isolate it.”

"Oh?" After thinking for a while, Cheng Bin raised his index finger and swipe at ***-173 out of thin air. A dark crack was suddenly torn out in mid-air, and the space-time cliff that could destroy all material structures split 173's figure into pieces. Fragmented, but after the synchronization of time and space was restored, its figure reconnected with the calm time and space, and there was no trace of damage.

"Is it really not possible? Well, to a certain extent, ***-173 at the material level is just a projection produced under distorted rules, and attacks that do not involve its essence are meaningless," Cheng Bin looked at Dr. T, The tone is intriguing, "This form of existence is very similar to you, Dr. T.

"If it weren't for my observation ability not being able to see your whole picture, I would be far more interested in your research than other containment objects."

Dr. T spread his hands helplessly: "For this timeline, I went to O5-13 to help transform the main body form, but it really still can't be hidden from you?"

Dr. T who is here now is just an empty shell of ordinary human phenomena. He has five senses, can talk, and can eat, but these are just the assembly of countless human external phenomena that have been extracted, and he of the ontology.

With the help of O5-13, Dr. T has used multiple space-time-related containments to embed his own consciousness into a mess of time. He is no longer a human being, but a monster wandering in chaotic time, manifested in What Cheng Bin faced was only an avatar maintained according to specific rules.

From the perspective of shape and structure, Dr. T and Cheng Bin have many similarities in the apostle's life shell "gravity monster", maybe it should be called a time monster?

Cheng Bin marveled at this kind of behavior of forcibly jumping up by relying on foreign objects: "You really dare to do it. To a certain extent, you are also a pseudo-high-dimensional life, right? It's just a step jump of consciousness across the world line." After passing through the past, realize the consciousness to cross the time axis first.

"Even so, your main body can only be used as a server, right? The real main consciousness exists in the projection avatar instead. Isn't this equivalent to driving yourself crazy and squeezing out a new self by default?"

Speaking of which, Dr. T's current time interference ability is similar to Cheng Bin's use of the high-dimensional information body's interference power, and his consciousness cannot exist at multiple time points at the same time, but this is avoided. Its potential risk of being disrupted by self-induced timeline shocks.

Anyway, according to the standards of the Foundation, Dr. T himself is already a containment object in essence.

"I can't help it." Dr. T, who was seen through the essence in a face-to-face, sighed faintly, "Human abilities have limits.

"We have learned one thing from countless lessons. The more we use the concept of ordinary people to touch the contained objects, the more we will find that human beings have limits. Unless they surpass human beings."

"So," Cheng Bin blinked strangely, "you are not human anymore?"

".There are too many contained objects that are full of malice to human beings, so starting from the fourth-level authority of the Foundation, relevant personnel can reasonably use the contained objects to transform and strengthen themselves to deal with unknown dangers, but after all, the contained objects are difficult to obtain. Knowing the existence of the essence, this kind of transformation is accompanied by great risks, and there have been many accidents in the past.”

Dr. T shook his head, and then continued: "Starting from a certain timeline without any records, the Foundation requires all O5 members with the highest authority to get rid of their ordinary human identities to deal with the increasingly severe situation

"In fact, it is through the increasingly exaggerated use of containment materials to strengthen ourselves that we have truly defeated vicious containment organizations such as the Chaos Insurgency, and solved countless crises of world destruction."

Dr. T stared at Cheng Bin, and said slowly and seriously: "...including you this time."

Cheng Bin blinked, with an innocent expression on his face - he could more or less guess how the foundation's judgments and comments about his ***-X came from those "world-class destruction and creation capabilities"

"Mr. Cheng Bin, you came to this world to cause a big impact event called ***-X-3, which affected a large number of contained objects and caused many destruction and out-of-control events. Fortunately, I have experienced it several times. Finally, we managed to barely deal with it in this timeline."

***-X-3's big hit? Cheng Bin thought for a while. This should be caused by breaking the bottom-level rule-distorting net like a bubble when he first entered the world.

Casting a complicated look at Cheng Bin, Dr. T sighed, "However, these are not the most troublesome things. In the X-1 timeline, after you entered the world, you had direct contact with ***-343 'God', Without being able to observe the specific process, the world will be destroyed in a single 'BOOM—'"

Clenching his fists together and then opening his fingers apart to make an explosion gesture, Dr. T took a deep breath and continued to speak backwards:

"Although you reset the world backhandedly, this is not an ending we can accept, so I went back to the time when you didn't come and started trying to make changes. Fortunately, the memory and consciousness of that God also have time span The ability of the axis, in the later timelines, avoided contact with you, giving us small humans a chance to breathe."

Looking at Cheng Bin solemnly, a document appeared out of thin air in Dr. T's hand and handed it to him: "Our foundation has no conflicts or contradictions with you, so I came here just to show the foundation's cooperation policy." Attitude, and I would like to remind you in particular, which containment researches will cause consequences that no one wants to see, and here are some of your research results in the past timeline."

Dr. T, who handed over the information, paused, and stopped talking later—some things are not suitable for mentioning with Cheng Bin now, we have to see the situation, and if we are unlucky, we may have to do it all over again.

Glancing at the thick document bag in hand, Cheng Bin read its contents without opening it. After the document automatically blurred and disappeared, Cheng Bin nodded to Dr. T and said, "This saved me a lot of effort, thank you, but the experimental data After all, it is only reliable if you collect it yourself, but I will pay attention to the research method later, so what do you want from me?"

Dr. T, who had a certain understanding of Cheng Bin's personality, was not polite, and he said directly: "Help our foundation, deal with some very difficult containment objects, or control or destroy them. If in the process, you are willing to teach us something about The knowledge behind these anomalies would be even better."

"The former is fine, but the latter." Cheng Bin said after pondering for a while, "It's okay to help you analyze the level of the operation principle of the contained objects. As for the specific knowledge, I will talk about the situation behind your series of worlds. .”

After taking a closer look at Dr. T, Cheng Bin moved his hands and feet at the bottom of the world, imitating some of the characteristics of the contained objects that have been researched, and created a special rule setting based on the information format, and then implanted the characteristics of this thing into the Dr. T projects into the perceptual memory of the avatar.

Facing Dr. T, who was covering his forehead unconsciously, Cheng Bin said: "Information stored in this format, no matter whether the carrier is paper, electromagnetic waves, or space-time vibrations, will be recognized and transmitted to me synchronously regardless of the environment. What can I do with this format?" Just contact me, and I will help depending on the situation."

After a pause, Cheng Bin said with emotion: "I still can't make this kind of concept-level storage thing intelligent and popular, otherwise it can switch communication objects and implant information into any form of life." It will be fine in the perceptual memory. The work of deciphering the containment cannot be stopped."

Cheng Bin already has a vague idea of ​​the operating principle of the special rules behind a containment like ***-173, but more comparative experiments are needed to reach a conclusion.

——So, next, go to the documents given by Dr. T, and look at the few contained objects that have the most influence on you in the previous timeline?

Thinking like this, Cheng Bin teleported away from ***-173's cell without saying hello—anyway, the communication protocol for Dr. T can carry very complex and huge content, and using that communication is no worse than talking face-to-face How many.

The next moment, Cheng Bin's figure appeared in a transparent glass room, and his eyes looked at the high platform in the center of the small room, on which was placed the latest safe that was taken in by the foundation and was marked as safe (can be safe containment).

Looking at the orange-red glass spheres with red stars inlaid on the cushions on the high platform, Cheng Bin's expression was a little subtle: "I thought there was some misunderstanding here, but I didn't expect it to be this. Why* Would such a thing appear in the **** world? Isn’t this setting too far from the style of the painting?”

Re-examining the information given to him by Dr. T, and looking through the general database of the foundation, Cheng Bin looked at the Keter (high hazard) level in the information, which claimed to be able to kill people by writing their names. Small books, and a large number of other familiar and abnormal items that appeared at the same time, the desire to complain in my heart is endless.

"I always feel that the situation behind this world is a bit troublesome." Cheng Bin pondered for a while, and then turned his gaze to another closed cage in the subspace, "Looking at the relevant information on the past timeline, I should be able to get the information from ***-682." Knowing the secrets behind some worlds, do you want to suspend the experiment and go take a look?"
