Chapter 280 Bloody Matrix

Chapter 280 Bloody Matrix

Xia Fei put away his pursuit of light and slowly walked towards Sky Hook, "I just want to know one thing, how many benefits has Li Mo given you?"

The voice is not loud but has full penetrating power. When people are in trouble, they will either be depressed or they will fight hard. Xia Fei happens to be the latter. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will not choose to give up. (Dingding novel hand-written novel)

Hook smiled and said nothing, tapping rhythmically on the seat with one hand, "Speaking of which, the person who contacted me does have something to do with Li Mo. As for whether it is him or not, you should know better than me. You are a smart person and will not offend me. It should be clear who is the one.”

Whoosh

Suddenly, hundreds of beautiful pulse lasers burst out from all around Xia Fei, surrounding him. Xia Fei had seen this before, and he couldn't resist the scorching temperature of the laser beam. He glanced at it with his eyes. I gave up the idea of ​​rushing.

"By the way, I always like to watch people fight to the death. I heard that you are a high-level speed user. I will arrange for the best fighter to duel with you later. If you win, you may be able to live for a while longer. , it can be regarded as the last chance for you." Hook said with a smile.

Xia Fei was silent for a while. This situation had obviously been laid out a long time ago. For a while, he couldn't think of any good solution, so he had to take it one step at a time.

The beautiful white marble floor suddenly parted in all directions, revealing an independent secret room below. There was no place to stay around, so Xia Fei had no choice but to fall into it.

…

The walls of the underground passage were also sealed with thick alloy, which could not be broken even by chasing light. Xia Fei tried to no avail, so he stepped forward.

"What should we do now?" Ghost Shadow asked eagerly.

"This is a situation that has been designed by others. Now we can only take one step at a time. I don't believe that everything is under his control. As long as there is any flaw, we will try to leave here." Xia Fei said.

"Do you want to inform the Shadow Killing Sect? After all, you are also the sect's agent and Wuying's anonymous disciple. Master Heying might really betray you and send someone here." Guiying said.

Xia Fei said: "I already informed you just now."

"When? Why didn't I notice?"

"When I take the chase light off the wall, that's when you're looking around."

The ghost nodded. With Xia Fei's hand speed, he could indeed send the message instantly without being noticed.

"The Shadow Killing Gate can only be regarded as a backup plan at best. It's not easy for them to get here because even I don't know where this is."

"Then what did you say?"

Xia Fei smiled slightly and did not answer him. The ghost shadow was slightly dissatisfied and followed Xia Fei forward in the underground passage.

This passage was very long. Xia Fei tried to break through the wall along the way, but unfortunately he failed.

The distance is gradually getting brighter, and life is bustling. I don’t know why they are so noisy.

Xia Fei walked a few steps curiously and came to the end of the passage. He saw that it was a huge circular venue. The ground was made of heavy alloy. The top of his head was sealed by a network of laser transmitters. Two naked men The upper body warriors were fighting in a bloody battle, and tens of thousands of spectators were immersed in the cruel and bloody fight while eating popcorn.

Many people were waving small golden pieces of paper in their hands. Xia Fei guessed that it was the bet they placed on the duelists. Looking at their hysterical looks, they wanted to go up and bite the enemy. Of course, they did not fight with the enemy. He has the courage to fight but loves to watch others use their lives to entertain themselves.

Xia Fei suddenly remembered the ancient Roman arena. It was just more advanced, but the nature was the same.

Lighting a cigarette, Xia Fei stood by the laser fence and watched the duel between the two fighters. There were many similar fences on both sides, but the one Xia Fei was in could lead to Hook's lair.

On the right side stood a middle-aged man with stern eyes. He was tall, his skin was bronze, and his body was covered with scars. He was holding a peach in his hand and eating the fruit while looking at it.

"The fat one is going to win." The middle-aged man said to himself without looking at Xia Fei.

Xia Fei smiled slightly, "That's not necessarily the case."

The middle-aged man turned his head and glanced at Xia Fei curiously, and then continued to stare at the fierce fight on the field. "I still stick to my opinion. The thin man's left leg has been injured, and his movement speed has been greatly reduced. If a person has inconvenient legs and feet, The defense will also be unable to cope with it. You see, he is already at a disadvantage. "

Xia Fei said: "Being at a disadvantage does not necessarily mean you will lose. The thin man's eyes are full of fighting spirit, while the fat man is fighting for the sake of fighting. The two have different attitudes, and the outcome may not follow a fixed pattern."

The middle-aged man sneered: "The thin man was sent to the Bloody Matrix just yesterday. Assuming he can live a few more days, his eyes will become the same as others."

"If this is the case, even if the thin man loses, he will still be considered a winner." Xia Fei said.

"What's the reason for this?"

"Assuming that a person has no hope and becomes a walking zombie, what's the point of living? Suppose the thin man loses, then he can die while his fighting spirit has not been dissipated, and it is considered a worthy death. On the contrary, the people who survive are still alive. We must continue to live a life that is worse than death, so losing counts as winning.”

The middle-aged man frowned, "So no matter what the outcome is, the thin man has already won? What do you mean by this?"

"Truth." Xia Fei blew out a smoke ring and said.

The middle-aged man laughed loudly, "Bullshit truth, I think it's obviously a fallacy."

After saying that, he laughed and extended his right hand. Since he was separated by the laser fence, he just made a handshake.

"Butcher."

"Xia Fei."

The two people shook hands in a weird way, and they seemed to know each other. Xia Fei retracted his arm and continued to watch the game. The fat man with the hood stabbed the thin man on the shoulder blade, and the outcome was already doomed.

The fat man raised his arms and roared loudly at the sidelines. At this moment, tens of thousands of people uniformly shouted "Kill him, kill him."

The thin man fell to the ground, his face ashen.

…

Like a rehearsed script, the huge warrior showed off his abilities to the best of his ability, exaggerating the posture of the winner, and then chopped off the loser's head with a knife, while tens of thousands of spectators sprayed water several meters high. Drenched in blood, satisfied, and withdrew with laughter.

Xia Fei sat on the ground with his legs crossed, smoking one cigarette after another. "That fat man was very excited. Didn't he think that one day he would also be beheaded?"

The butcher said indifferently: "Everyone here understands, but if you follow the instructions, you can have a hearty meal. You have just come here. If you are hungry for a few days, you will know that a piece of bread is worth more than several lives." More importantly, as for dignity and glory, it’s all bullshit.”

Xia Fei didn't say anything. In a place like this, the bestiality of human beings is fully exposed, and any moral principles are just useless words.

"We will fight against each other later." Xia Fei said calmly.

The butcher glanced at Xia Fei's light-chasing and space rings, "Your things are good, I will keep them well for you."

"Thank you." Xia Fei said: "Just hearing the name, I thought the butcher would be such a cruel guy. I didn't expect you to still maintain your sanity in a place like this."

The butcher shook his head, "Crazy people have died long ago. It is precisely because I am sober enough that I am alive today. Of course, when I need to be crazy, I will be crazier than anyone else. It's just that it's rest time now, so there's no need for that." ”

The butcher raised his head and looked at the sun in the sky with longing eyes. For him, who was in trouble, freedom was like a life-saving potion that was out of reach.

"I walked out of that passage just like you back then. Hook's room was very nice. No one could escape from it. You were not the first one to be lured here by him, but I haven't seen anyone in it for many years. Although he was framed, he still remained calm, maybe that's why I told you so much." The butcher said.

Xia Fei laughed at himself a few times, "It seems that I am not the first one to be tricked. I should be happy."

The butcher said: "I don't care what you think. I only know one thing. Tonight will be a life and death showdown. Only one of you and I can survive. I don't think anyone will give up the chance of survival. Knowing You are very happy, but you should stop here now. I guarantee that you will have a good ending. Although it may not be decent, I will at least let you end happily. "

After saying that, the butcher stood up and walked to his bed. It was just a narrow alloy bed, which was slightly better than other people's beds because it had a green military blanket on it.

Xia Fei thought about it for a while, then said with a smile: "I think you can't sleep now. I will die in your hands anyway. Why don't you tell me more about hooks."

The Butcher turned over and turned his back to Xia Fei, "You are wrong. Even if it is the end of the world, I can still fall asleep. Besides, there is a surveillance system here. There is no benefit in talking more. You are going to die, but I still need to live. "

Xia Fei lit up a cigarette and said, "Can't beer help you lose a few minutes of sleep?"

The butcher was slightly startled, "Haha, I really can't refuse a bottle of beer."

…

Things were absurd. A man nicknamed The Butcher was as calm as a surgeon. What was even more absurd was that two people who were about to engage in a life-and-death battle actually shared a bottle of beer a few hours before the decisive battle.

Since Xia Fei had just been locked up, his equipment and rings had not been taken away, so he still had a lot of food. He opened a bottle of beer, covered the mouth of the bottle with his hand and shook it vigorously a few times, until a gap became golden. The beer liquid will gush out.

The butcher opened his mouth through the laser fence, greedily devouring every drop of liquid. Although most of it would be burned into mist by the laser, a small part would still fall into the butcher's mouth.

Wiping his mouth with his sleeve, the butcher laughed and said, "I haven't had a beer in many years. I didn't expect that I could enjoy it today. Is there anything else? Come again."

…

Hook sat in his seat, watching every move of Xia Fei and Butcher.

"Master Gou, Butcher and Xia Fei seem to be getting along very well. Should we separate them? It would be bad if it affects the quality of tonight's game." Gou's subordinate said.

Hook smiled slightly and said: "What do you know? The better they get along, the more enjoyable it is when they fight desperately. I like this kind of feeling of separation and death. It's a pity. If there is time, they should be allowed to get along with each other for a few more days. It would be fun to let them fight like real brothers until they are good, but it’s a pity that the boss pushed it a little too fast, otherwise it would have been a good drama. "

Gouzi's subordinates were speechless for a while. His hobby of watching brothers kill each other was really cruel. Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Gouzi was the boss, and he would always be just a follower.

"Do you want to put Xia Fei's weapons away?" Hook's men asked.

"No need." Hook said indifferently: "Can he still break through the laser defense array? Let him stay for two more days."

"What Mr. Gou is saying is that our laser defense array cost a lot of money to configure back then. Countless souls have been buried under this defense array over the years. Xia Fei doesn't have this ability." His subordinates hurriedly said. Flattery.

Hook glared at him fiercely, "What a bastard. I spent so much money building this bloody matrix, but those guys' deaths are not unfair at all."

…

After several bottles of beer, the butcher still looked a little unsatisfied. Unfortunately, Xia Fei had no more beer in his hand. He licked his lips and said: "Drinking your beer will naturally satisfy your curiosity. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, but If you want me to be merciful, forget it."

Xia Fei said: "I'm not that ignorant. Besides, it's not certain who will win or lose in a real fight. I just got here, and I'm very interested in the hook thing."

"Hook is his nickname. People here call him Skyhook. As for his real name, no one knows. As far as I know, he should be the largest supplier of drugs and entertainment in the league, living on this planet. People work for him and help him produce and process drugs.”

"Entertainment supplier?" Xia Fei asked curiously: "Why is a drug dealer still connected with the entertainment industry? This is really weird."

The Butcher pointed at the huge venue outside, "Isn't this just entertainment? Watching people kill each other, what could be more exciting than this? This building is called the Bloody Matrix, and the audiences you see are actually They are all insignificant characters, their existence is nothing more than adding to the atmosphere of the scene.”

"As long as you have money, you can watch the real-person fighting competition here through the Star Network. Of course, the signal has been multiplexed and encrypted. No one can even think of finding this place through the signal. It can be said that the hook is God on this planet. No one can leave here. Even if he brings you here and lets you leave, you still won’t be able to find him next time.”

The Star Network is like a highway. The toll station is only responsible for toll collection and does not care about what is in the carriage. Therefore, the Star Network is used to spread various pornographic and violent information. Although the Star Network Company will also investigate some Unconventional communication content, but advanced encryption technology leaves operators helpless.

The current encryption algorithm has up to 1.28 million bits. Even the most powerful supercomputer will take decades to crack an algorithm. By the time the algorithm is cracked, the criminals will have already replaced it with a stronger encryption system.

"No one has tried to escape in so many years?" Xia Fei asked.

"Of course some people will try, and every once in a while someone will do it, but I've never heard of anyone succeeding," said the butcher.

Xia Fei said: "No matter how powerful the laser is, it still needs to be emitted from the laser transmitter. Even if the laser itself cannot be destroyed, you can still try to destroy the laser transmitter. Besides, such a large system will often require maintenance."

The butcher said: "It's not that simple. The laser transmitters are all hidden in the building. Unless someone can destroy the thick alloy walls, how can it threaten the transmitter? The bloody matrix system is divided into many different units, each Maintenance will be carried out every few days, but only one unit is maintained, and other units are still open, which does not affect the defense. "

"I don't know which company produced this system. The quality is too good. I have been here for several years and have never seen any malfunctions except for normal maintenance."

Xia Fei was silent for a while. It was not easy to get out of here.

"Another more important thing is that people are not united. At its most, the Bloody Matrix once accommodated thousands of warriors. It was supposed to be a super powerful force, but these people were not united with each other, and no one was willing to lead them. Everyone fled."

"There is no way to get out of here except for sacrifice. A group of soldiers must first defeat the defense system at the cost of their lives. Only then can the rest escape. Unless someone is really willing to sacrifice his life for the freedom of others, there is no chance." Tu Ying said.

"Thousands of warriors? Where did Hook find thousands of warriors to work for him?" Xia Fei asked.

"You've been to Hook's home, don't you understand? He will use high salary or other things as bait to lure some freedom fighters to work for him. Once these people arrive on this planet, they will never want to leave, even if No matter how high your cultivation level is, don’t be afraid. He will pretend to invite you to a banquet. There are several hidden laser systems in the living room where you came. As long as you enter any one, you will be sent to this bloody matrix. Come on, even if you don't want to participate in the duel, you can't help it, because your opponents have already become numb and they just want to survive for a few more days by killing people."

The butcher's voice was hoarse and his eyes wandered.

Xia Fei said: "What you are talking about should be your own experience?"

Tu Ying nodded, "Exactly." He smiled bitterly: "If I hadn't been greedy for money and accepted the hook's contract, why would this have happened."

Xia Fei remained calm and lightly traced a few words on the ground with his fingers. As a martial artist with keen eyesight, Tu Ying quickly discovered this unusual thing.

Xia Fei tilted his head and scribbled on the ground as if out of boredom. The butcher used his eyes to glance at the handwriting written by Xia Fei, and saw that Xia Fei wrote like this, "There is surveillance. What I want to say next is very complicated." It’s important, you have to look carefully.”
