Starting from Zero

"Quickly get out and get out of here." I shouted to Knight who was standing at the door. For this incomprehensible thing, I decided not to touch her for the time being.

It's a pity that the thing doesn't seem to want us to leave. She saw the ring tone Knight running out, and immediately followed. We almost ran out one by one, but the green female ghost also followed, and what was even more depressing was that she could actually go through the wall.

I urged Knight, who was running in front of the ring, to run quickly, but suddenly there was a scream in front of him, and the ringing Knight fell back again. The corridors in the facts area of ​​the base are just so wide, and it is not very safe for the twenty-nine of us to squeeze into a pile.

"What did you do before?" I asked unhappily.

"There are also here!" The ringing tone in front of Knight replied in panic.

"What?" I squeezed quickly, but I was taken aback. Although the female ghost in the back is in a weird situation, she is in a human form at any rate, and she is still a pretty woman. It is only because of the greenish color displayed on the eyepieces and the dull and lifeless expression that she looks very scary. But compared with this one here, the one behind is simply a harmless crowd. The guy in front is a male, and his appearance is completely unclear. Half of his face is missing, and a large amount of meat turned up can be seen on the remaining half, and one eyeball is still hanging outside. The same goes for that guy's hand, the left hand is completely skeleton claws, but the right hand is still a human hand. Looking down again, there was a big hole in his stomach, and a pile of internal organs hung out in a mess, dragged to the ground, and pulled out behind him to make a long section.

"God! What are these things?"

Ling tremblingly said, "Whatever it is, I don't want them to come closer."

Jingjing suddenly said: "Protective cover, we can make a protective cover, try to see if we can stop it."

"You are a genius!"

Na and Chili turned to both sides at the same time, and each used magnetic force to construct a strong magnetic barrier in the passage. The two Unknown Creatures were still approaching us, almost at the same time they hit the shield together. Unlike the situation where we were bounced off after hitting the protective cover, a blue electric spark was shining where the two ghosts touched, and then each of us felt the screams of the two monsters. That was not actually a real sound, but a reaction caused by the bursts of brain waves from two monsters. Just now, these two guys' faint and almost non-fluctuating current induction actually became so strong the moment they hit the protective cover.

The monster seemed to be seriously injured by the protective cover. The monster that looked like a rotten zombie started to fade after screaming, and finally disappeared. We rotated the eyepiece for many bands in a row, but we never saw that guy anymore. Vina concentrated on looking for the Spiritual Fluctuation of that guy again, but it turned out that there was no trace of it. The female ghost on the other side was obviously weakened after being hit by the protective cover, but she did not disappear, but the Spiritual Fluctuation became weaker.

"The protective shield has a powerful damage effect on them." Vina made a judgment instantly.

"I can see it." I commanded the pepper. "Place a magnetic barrier around her and take her to the High Energy Physics Laboratory. I want to know what it is."

There is nothing to be afraid of. Since the protective shield hurt her so badly, it should be because she was afraid of us. The female ghost could clearly see the protective shield. After using the protective shield to surround her, Chili used the protective shield to directly threaten her to move with us, and she was sent to the high-energy physics experimental area smoothly. Researchers quickly created dozens of such cells based on our principle of magnetic field. These cells have no walls in the usual sense, but only form boundaries with strong magnetic fields. Although this kind of magnetic field cannot block bullets like a protective shield, trapping this female ghost is completely not a problem. As for why dozens of such cells were built, it was because we encountered dozens of such things on the way to send the ghosts. There are such things all over the base, it can be said that they are everywhere. No one had ever noticed such a thing in the base before, and we knew it for the first time. After learning that they could be observed with multiple eyepieces, the researchers in the base began a large-scale search of the entire base. Once they were found, we were asked to arrest them. Instead, we were even more afraid of doing so.

After searching by the researchers, it was found that there was nothing without this thing in the entire base from the entrance to the bottom. After three or four thousand arrests, there were still sporadic arrests. In the end, even the cells were not enough to install, so we simply made a few large cells and put these ghosts in together.

During the hunt, we discovered that the ghosts in the base are not only humans, but there are a large number of monkeys or dog ghosts, and even little white mouse ghosts. Of course, the experimental biochemical creatures and ghosts also exist. , But mainly there are more human beings. Some of these ghosts are exactly the same as people, some are like rotten zombie intestines hanging outside, and some become monsters that only appear in nightmares. People are not like people and ghosts.

After the remedial process, we have finally concluded some common characteristics of these things. First of all, they can't get close to the strong current and magnetic field, otherwise they will be seriously injured, and as long as the damage reaches a certain level, they will disappear completely like the male ghost at first. Secondly, these things can pass through walls, but their speed drops severely when they pass through walls, and they cannot move as fast as in the air. In addition, they don't seem to be completely nihilistic. At least air currents and waving objects can destroy their integrity, but they will slowly recover over a long period of time, which has no practical value.

When all these guys in the base were caught and locked up in the magnetic field wall, many researchers had gathered here, even people from unrelated departments ran over. The reason why everyone is so concerned about this is because these things are likely to overthrow our existing knowledge system. We have received materialistic education since childhood, but the terms that these things point to are so unquestionable. These things have no fixed physical characteristics, they cannot be touched by the hands, nor can they be seen by the eyes. The action is erratic, can go through walls, and is offensive. Based on these characteristics, it is very similar to ghosts in folklore, but ghosts should not exist in our knowledge system.

We were worrying there, a person suddenly squeezed in and pointed at a ghost behind a magnetic wall in surprise and cried out: "Luo Peng?" All the people on our side turned around looking towards That person.

"Do you know him?" I walked over and asked in surprise.

"Of course." The gray-haired old researcher said excitedly: "He was my former laboratory supervisor."

"What? This..." I thought for a long time. Don't know what to call this thing. Although the supervisor feels like a ghost, it's not so sure. "This Unknown Creature used to be from our base?"

The researcher nodded and said: "His name is Luo Peng, and he belongs to the Microbiology Research Department like me."

" What is your current position?" I also impossible to know so many researchers in the base.

"I am now the head of the Microbiology Research Department."

"Where did the Luo Peng you mentioned later go?"

"At that time we We were working on a new type of blue-green algae, but a newbie knocked down the bio-stripping agent cylinder. As a result, the cylinder valve hit the corner of the instrument, causing the peeling agent to leak. Luo Peng went up and twisted the valve by hand to protect us. However, he himself was exposed to an excessive amount of stripper, which caused a large area of ​​cell death throughout his body. In the end, he was not rescued."

Vina asked puzzledly: "What kind of cylinder can be opened as soon as it hits?"

Old research main pipeline: "That was more than 30 years ago. At the time, shutter cylinders were used, and there was no electronic insurance."

I wrinkled and did not ask: "That is Say that Luo Peng has been dead for more than 30 years?"

The old research director nodded. "Thirty-four years. I go to tomb-sweeping every year."

Ling pointed to the ghost behind the magnetic wall: "Then what is this?"

Old research The supervisor shook the head: "That's why I was so surprised. Luo Peng has been dead for more than 30 years. I remember this very clearly. But this...! He is exactly the same as Luo Peng when he died. That... Deputy President, do you think this is...?"

He doesn't say I know what he means, and everyone around him is equally clear. Everyone is skeptical that this is really a ghost in the legend.

Xiaochun is quite clever, and yells at the top of his head. "Nuwa elder sister, can you find the information of this person?"

The projector in the room was activated instantly, and a three-dimensional image of a male was projected in front of us. There was a large amount of personnel information beside the image. Nuwa's voice rang at the same time: "Luo Peng does have this person. The death record and work record are very detailed. From the three-dimensional image, the unknown object you caught is completely a person. But I can't understand why he died. People who have been there for more than 30 years can still appear in this form."

Huang Zhongdao, the director of the high-energy physics research department: "The long image cannot be concluded as his own soul! There are no such things. The actual form, it should not be difficult to simulate the appearance of other people and animals, and there is a very strange problem that you may not have noticed."

"What's the problem?"

< p>"They all have clothes."

"What's wrong with that?"

Huang Zhong solemnly said: "Even if people really have souls, they will Become a ghost wandering around, but the clothes are not part of the human body. Why do ghosts wear clothes?"

"This...!"

Don’t say it, this seems ordinary The question really comes to the point. Why are they all wearing clothes? Clothes shouldn't be part of the body. Even if people die, they can turn into ghosts. They should also be naked!

Huang Zhong suddenly said again: "No matter what these things are, let's see if they have any offensive power."

"Yes." I immediately said to Nuwa : "Sister, hurry up and help us send two subjects over, right?"

"I will be there soon."

A few minutes later, eight guards appeared in the experiment under the pressure of two death row prisoners. District, the two men were looking around in fear when they were brought in. They should have been shot long ago, and it is natural to know that there must be a special reason if they can live to this day. Suddenly seeing so many of us summon them in such a weird room, making these two people feel dangerous instinctively.

After the guard sent the person to me, I signed the certificate for retention and left. One of the prisoners was locked up by Skotts and the other was opened with handcuffs and shackles.

I pointed to one of the magnetic field walls: "Go there and stand there."

"What are you going to do with me?" the person asked nervously.

"Don't ask so much, just go over and stand." I increased my tone.

The prisoner hesitated and walked in. We all carried observation glasses, but the prisoners did not. He couldn't see those ghosts, so naturally he wouldn't be afraid of them. As soon as he entered, the ghosts inside began to approach him. In our observer, we can clearly see the ghost sticking to this person's side, and then extend the hand hit the prisoner's chest with a fist.

The prisoner couldn't see the ghost, he just thought it was weird that so many of us stared at him with weird glasses. However, he suddenly felt that the muscles in his chest were uncomfortable, and there was a feeling of cramping, so he stretched out his hand and rubbed it twice before turning his shoulder again.

"Do you feel anything?" Huang Zhong asked suddenly.

"Feel?" The prisoner looked around. "How does it feel?"

"Your chest, where you rubbed it just now."

"Here?" The prisoner was puzzled, but he answered our question. "I felt like muscle cramps just now, but it’s all right now. What’s wrong?"

Huang Zhong ignored him, but said to us: "The attack power is basically zero, and it seems to be completely on the human body. It's harmless."

Vina said: "I don't see it as harmless, but the attack power is too weak."

Ling suddenly said: "I don't know you I don’t feel it. It seems that what he attacked just now was not the person’s body, but his bio-magnetic field."

I nodded and said: "In other words, this thing can use the body to send out something similar to Spirit Attack. Something."

Nuwa’s voice suddenly continued: "The human body’s control signal uses bio-electricity, so if a person really has a soul, it should appear in the form of a magnetic field or an electric field. In this way If you don’t, these things are really human souls."

Vina laughed: "haha, the most cutting-edge computers in the world actually say that there are ghosts in this world. It's ironic. "

Nuwa said slightly displeased: "My emotion control module only accounts for less than 1% of the calculation module. My thinking is absolutely objective. Now it is not my guess, but The facts have already appeared. The answer just now does contain speculation, but the probability of speculation is as high as 98%, which has exceeded the minimum standard for accurate conclusions."

Huang Zhong took a notebook while recording One side said: "This situation just now should be considered as a means of attack. But this prisoner did not provoke him, then his active attack should be the nature of the offensive. If it is simply to make the muscles feel cramps, it shouldn't be counted. Very strong damage, but look at the energy level reading."

I scanned the energy level reading in the upper right corner of the eyepiece and found that the number seems to have become larger. "He is absorbing energy?" I said in surprise.

"And the speed of absorption is not low!" Huang Zhong pointed to the inside.

We found that the ghost started attacking the prisoner again, and the prisoner stood there unconsciously and occasionally rubbed and scratched the place. It seemed to him that some parts of his body were uncomfortable from time to time, so he wanted to rub it, but what we saw was completely different. Every time that ghost attacks his position in our eyepieces, he will immediately rub that position, and more and more frequently. At the same time, the energy level of that ghost is constantly improving, and his translucent silhouette is becoming clearer and clearer, but since naked eye is invisible.

The prisoner felt that a group of us always looked at him like this, it seemed strange, and couldn't help but screamed. "What the hell are you doing? I'm not gay. Is there something wrong with so many of you staring at me?"

We didn't bother to care about him, one by one, we were still watching the ghosts. Keep attacking him. Nuwa suddenly said: "By the way, I heard that people often see ghosts on rainy nights, so I have a little inference, do you want to try?"

"What inference?"

"Look at it and you will understand."

Under Nuwa's command, an electrostatic discharge device was pushed into the space, and then the air conditioner in the room began to increase the air humidity, and then we were She was asked to change into insulated shoes and even the sight glass was asked to take off. Nuwa’s voice said: “There is a lot of water vapor in the air on a rainy day. The current in lightning will inevitably radiate outward through the water vapor, and the intensity of the current refracted by multiple layers of water vapor will inevitably decrease. In an environment with water, a large amount of water will be flooded. With active electrons, oxygen will be ionized into negative ions. This will happen when the concentration of charged negative ions reaches a certain ratio."

With the end of Nuwa’s last beep, the electrostatic generator in the room Suddenly it started, and then the transparent and strong magnetic space that was originally used to detain these ghosts suddenly lit up, and those magnetic walls were seen directly by our naked eye as if they were real. Under normal circumstances, these are just magnetic fields and should not be seen by naked eye. But now they are lit up. Even more weird is yet to come. As the lights in the laboratory gradually dimmed, all the ghosts that had been trapped in the magnetic wall appeared.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh) "Ghost...Ghost..." This guy was terribly scared, his face pale.

Nuwa appeared again with a clearly playful voice. "Sure enough, I guessed it right."

"What's the matter?" Vina asked.

"It's very simple." Nuwa replied: "These ghosts are the same thing as the magnetic wall we use to enclose them. They are semi-materials with energy attributes, and their properties are similar to the photons that make up light. , There are dual properties of energy and matter at the same time. Because these things are semi-material, they do not reflect or emit light, so we naturally can’t see them. But when the free electrons in the air increase, the electrons collide with their energy bodies. , The phenomenon of electron glare will occur. What we see now is not the light reflected or emitted by them, but the flash of electrons hitting them. However, because the electrons are dense, a light-emitting surface is formed. The outline of them is outlined. However, the light of the electron impact is relatively dim, and it is invisible when the external light source is sufficient."

A researcher said: "No wonder the ghosts in the legend appear in the It’s dark places, and it's basically raining on cloudy days. It turns out that you can only see them in this environment."

Another researcher added: "There are more ancient ghosts and monsters. In modern times, it has been significantly reduced, probably because the lights in the city are too bright, and you simply cannot see them."

Nuwa said: "The two are only half right. From what we know, strong electromagnetic fields can Destroy these ghosts. In modern society, high-voltage power lines, radar waves emitted by radars, electromagnetic radiation from microwave ovens, and strong electric fields near high-power infinite broadcasting stations should all be lethal to ghosts. So they are not only visible to them. The dark environment is less, and the number of ghosts should also decrease. Very difficult to deal with. Even the strong magnetic interference caused by the solar wind is very dangerous to them, so these ghosts cannot stay in the world forever, otherwise this world will die. So many people have long been crowded with ghosts. Another point, it seems that not everyone will form these ghosts after death. Their formation should also have specific environmental requirements. And I have calculated that they are highly concentrated when they die. Thinking should be one of the important conditions for the formation of ghosts, so there is the saying that the ghosts are not reconciled, because those people are unwilling to die, they are more active when they die, and the electric field strength is high, and ghosts are easier to form. However, the legend is obviously processed. At least. There should be no such thing as revenge."

"How do you know?"

"To revenge, you must remember who the enemy is, right? These ghosts have been caught for so long. I have observed that they seem to have only basic biological instincts. They know how to avoid damage and obtain the necessary resources for survival, but they do not have a higher level of intelligence. As for attacking humans, it seems to be purely for the supplement of biological electric fields, not true. Because they have hatred with whom. Besides, even if they have hatred, they don’t remember, it is impossible to get revenge."

" . "

The research on the formation principle and some characteristics of these ghosts will not end for a while, but since there is no security issue, I don’t need to watch it. Huang Zhong has the full authority to take over the research project, and I will Bring the familiars back online, the task that can break the suppression of divine force has not been completed yet!

After going online, reopen the scroll and read it carefully. The content on the scroll is very simple. Below the title Only three things are written: task content reminder, restriction requirements, and completion reward.

Completing the reward is to get a divine force gem. After it is mounted on any item, the holder of the item can get it The ability to lift the divine force restriction, but the loss of the item will cause the divine force restriction to be transferred at the same time. However, I have a system reward. As long as I don’t deliberately throw it away or trade it out, the item will not be dropped, so don’t worry about this problem. The scroll is still It is mentioned that there are some uncertain prizes in the task process, but there is no detailed description, only that there are some random prizes, and the specific ones are not stated.

There is only one restriction, that is, only one player Go to complete the task. That is to say, it doesn’t matter who completes it, but only one person can go. However, it is added that the summon creatures owned by the player performing the task can participate, but other types of NPCs are not allowed to help.

The task content is to find the divine force gem mentioned in the reward, but the task prompt is just one sentence. "The insider is frozen under the eternal shining king's capital. "

This reminder is really vague and a bit exaggerated. Basically, there is no big difference between it and there is no difference. I have analyzed it for a long time with the familiars, but I guessed that the task reminder is for us to go to a bright spot called Eternal Look for an insider in the capital. This person should know where the gem is or he knows the next clue. Anyway, he must find this person first. But the problem has also arisen. I simply don’t know where the king is. So I don’t even know how to start this 1st Step.

After thinking about it for a long time, I didn’t remember where I saw the capital, but the game system of "Zero" is based on player experience. The task is arranged, so the scroll says that, then I should have encountered or heard of this place, otherwise the system will not give such a task. But I don’t think I can remember when I have seen or heard of it. Such a place. There is really no way to mobilize everyone’s strength afterwards. The guild’s more than 100,000 members and tens of millions of NPCs should always be informed.

I directly use the guild information publishing system to send After receiving the help message, I asked the NPC leaders of various departments to help me ask at Level 1. I don’t believe that none of so many people knows where the damn city is.

Don’t Said, two hours later, I really found the insider, and it turned out to be Real Red. I pulled Real Red excitedly and asked, "Where is that place? "

Zhenhong hesitantly said: "Actually, I have never heard of this place, but I think there may be a place that is the city you are looking for. "

"Where is it?" "

True Red did not answer and asked: "Remember the last time we passed by Great Snow Mountain when we came back from India?" "(Appeared in Volume Nine, Chapter 126)

"Remember, what's wrong?" "

"At that time, I fell under the ice, and then we found a city made of ice. Do you still have an impression? "

As soon as Zhenhong said it, I immediately remembered it. "You said that there are a lot of ice sculpture monsters, a Chinese style city made of ice? I remember we didn’t walk in because we were in a hurry, did we? "

"Yes, that's the place. "

"How do you know that there is the eternal shining capital?" "

"I'm not sure, but I think it's probably there. In your task, it is suggested that the insider is frozen in this city, then the city is most likely to be in a very cold place, and the probability of that person being frozen in a very cold room alone is not great. In addition, the eternal shining king is probably not a name but an adjective. Eternity means a long time, and in my impression, only the entire ice can be preserved for a long time. As for the brilliance, it is likely to describe the city itself as beautiful. The city we saw at the time was made with ice sculpture, so I think it fully meets the standard of brilliance. It's hard to say whether there is a royal capital there, after all, the prompt is too vague. "

"Didn't expect you to become smarter too!" "I smiled and said: "Okay. Anyway, there is no more useful news now, I'll go there and check it out first. If you have new and more accurate information about the capital, you can ask Rose to contact me with the ring of love. "

"Okay. "

Now that I know the destination, it’s easy. Say hello to Rose and tell her that I will not return to the guild during this time, and then use the teleport ring to teleport directly to the city closest to the Himalayas. Riding the night shadow to the frozen city.

To be honest, although I have been to that city once, it seems that it’s not much different from having never been. The mountain range above the snow line is just Like a desert, there is no suitable surface reference at all. The white peaks seem to be about the same length, and I don’t know where I found the ice hole last time. I can only wander around in a rough range. . As a result, I still don’t feel anything, Ye Ying is unhappy at first.

"Master, do you know what we are looking for? "

"I know. We are looking for a Daxuegou, but it all looks the same here! "

"I'm afraid this is not the way to find it, right?" "

"Do you have a better way?" ”
