Chapter 127 Deja Vu
"Wait!"
The moment [Z] was about to come into contact with the woman in the cylindrical cabin, Remia suddenly called out to him and said quickly: "Why don't you be more careful? After all, we still don't understand the current situation. "
【Z】 stopped after hearing this.
But soon, the chest of the woman in the cabin suddenly rose and fell, as if she was stimulated by electricity... The woman suddenly opened her eyes and took a deep breath.
She seemed to be awake, but soon passed out again - falling out of the cylindrical cabin.
【Z】With sharp eyesight and quick hands, he caught the woman... After a while, Remia tentatively approached and asked hesitantly: "Who is she?"
"Although the vital signs are a little low, but..." [Z] looked at Remia, blinked and said, "She is still alive."
Stay alive!
Remia's heart suddenly trembled. Living... means many things.
"[Z], are you inside? I'm coming in."
At this moment, the sound of a blue bird came from outside... The next moment, a small figure flew in, and then landed on [Z]'s shoulder, "I saw a few He Lei outside. Someone like Mia... Hey, why is there one here?"
…
In the underground secret room of the vault, after learning from the blue bird that a new stranger had arrived in the ruined city, [Z] did not act in a hurry, but instead began to take care of the woman who came out of the cylindrical cabin.
The woman's breathing gradually became steady. In [Z] terms, her vital signs were returning to normal levels, but they still seemed to be on the edge of weakness.
Remia asked him what the standard of judgment was and how it was judged...but [Z] didn't explain clearly. He just said that he knew it, that's all.
Bluebird continued to be sent out to follow the three strangers outside - only then did Remia realize that in fact, the division of labor in [Z]'s tour group had always been very clear.
The members of the tour group each have their own advantages and functions... and the blue bird is obviously very suitable as a scout in the team. It can overlook everything from the air, observe carefully, and discover many unknowns.
An idea suddenly came into her mind.
At that time, before [Z] came into contact with him and rescued him who was about to freeze to death...could it be that he had already discovered her existence and only came in contact with her after observing her for a period of time?
If that's the case, then...
"Remia."
"Ah...w-what?"
"She really wants to wake up." [Z] said suddenly.
The unknown woman had a coat on her body, which [Z] took off directly - this woman's clothes were too thin... At this time, under the gaze of the two, the woman's eyes moved slightly, and then Open once.
As if she couldn't adapt, she tried to open her eyes several times...after a while, she finally opened her eyes completely.
"You...are..." a weak voice.
"[Z]" [Z] directly introduced himself and said: "And this is Remia, the companion we are currently working with."
"[Z]? Remia..." The woman was startled, and then struggled from [Z]'s arms, seeming to want to stand up.
[Z] helped her stand up, and the woman began to look around the underground secret room.
I only heard the woman whispering at this time: "[Z]...Help, help me to the front."
[Z] seemed a little distracted, but quickly responded. He supported the woman beside him and slowly approached the instruments in the secret room.
Remia frowned... Although the woman's voice was weak, her tone was like some kind of natural command.
The woman came to the side of the instrument, found a screen on the dusty panel, and pressed it directly with her palm... However, after pressing it, only a line of text flashed on the screen.
The woman stayed in a daze for a while, then said with a wry smile: "How long has it been since... actually, all the energy here has been exhausted."
[Z] looked at each other and Remia frowned subconsciously, "Excuse me, what do you mean by this?"
The woman was also looking at Remia at this time, as if she was thinking about something... Suddenly, the woman stretched out her hand and wanted to touch Remia's body.
"What are you going to do?" Remia instinctively took two steps back.
The woman said: "I don't mean any harm, I just want to confirm...trust me."
Remia hesitated for a moment, and finally stretched out her hand... The woman opened Remia's palm, and after a while, she suddenly asked: "Where did you wake up?"
"Where did you wake up?" Remia looked even more confused.
The woman said: "You don't know me?"
Remia shook her head. Not to mention knowing each other - she had never seen anyone before - how could she possibly know everyone in this world? She is a resident of the Free City!
"What about the past?" The woman asked again: "How much do you know about the past? What happened before this world was destroyed."
Remia shook her head directly: "I'm sorry, I don't know what you are talking about. This is not my original place. I just suddenly appeared here after waking up because of an accident. I don't care about everything here. I just feel strange and scared.”
"In this way..." The woman nodded, pondered for a moment, and then nodded and said: "I'm afraid that the too long dormancy caused some problems in your memory center, causing you to lose the memory before the end. But it doesn't matter, It’s probably a good thing that you can’t remember such a terrible thing.”
"I...I still don't quite understand what you are talking about." Remia took a deep breath, "Also, who are you, and why do you seem to know so many things?"
The woman laughed at herself, "How could I not know... As a survivor before the end of civilization, of course I know all this."
"survivor?"
"My name is Gamma." The woman said softly: "Don't worry, I will tell you everything... After all, you are different from [Z], you are the same as me. I'm afraid there are really not many humans left in this world. ”
"What on earth are you..."
…
…
This is a world where technology is developing too fast - which has also resulted in a rapid consumption of various resources that humans rely on for survival.
The energy crisis has caused mankind to turn its attention to a new energy source called "Eternal Power".
But even a self-questioning scumbag like Remia knows one thing - perpetual motion machines do not exist.
However, before the world was destroyed, mankind had placed all its hopes on the subject of "Eternal Power" - and the person responsible for this research was the world's largest company.
This woman who woke up from an underground secret room and called herself Gamma is the heir to this company.
"My father, Cicero is the most accomplished person on the subject of new energy. The research on [Eternal Power] has even reached a critical moment. Humanity is about to usher in a new life..." Gamma sighed at this time. Tone: "Until, on the eve of the launch of [Eternal Power], my father suddenly told me that all this was just a scam."
"A scam?" Remia lost her voice slightly after hearing this, and murmured: "A lie..."
"That's right, it's a lie that deceives the whole world." Gamma nodded gently: "And it's a lie that a small group of high-level officials are trying to buy time for themselves and stabilize all mankind. Basically, there is no so-called "eternal power" 】, the world has come to an end, and human power has no way to save it all. The only way to regenerate the world is to have the purification function of the world itself... I have no way to resist my father's arrangement for me. He will I was placed in a specially made dormant cabin, and I could not wake up until the world was reborn... There should be a group of people like me. Of course, the humans who can be preserved as seeds are all selected from."
"Then what?"
"According to our research at that time, the world will undergo several drastic changes. The land and oceans will change, and then it will enter a long ice age. When all traces of human beings are erased, new organic matter will appear." Ma breathed out slowly: "But we are not sure how long this time is... But, Remia, you woke up earlier than me, and you should know more about the outside world than I do. Can you and I, information sharing?”
Remia opened her mouth... She was not the so-called survivor in Gamma's mouth at all!
only……
"Of course." Gama couldn't help but laugh at himself: "I am no longer the eldest lady of the company, so I can't give you anything in return. Just for the sake of fellow humans."
Remia was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "I can't remember many things about the past... I, it didn't take long for me to wake up, only about three or four weeks. After I woke up, , the first one I encountered was [Z].”
"It's okay." Gamma said comfortingly: "It will get better gradually. Before putting me into cryo-dormancy, my father had already imagined the worst case scenario... [Z], tell me, the amount of seeds in your body, Are you still in a normal state?"
[Z] however blinked his eyes and seemed indifferent to Gamma's question, even showing a questioning look, "The meaning is unclear, I can explain it more specifically."
Gama pondered: "[Z], how much do you know about yourself?"
"I have no memories of my childhood." [Z] thought for a moment and said, "When I started recording memories, I was probably only half the height of Remia."
Gamma bit his nails lightly, "Maybe there is something wrong with your memory system. Unfortunately, I don't have the right tools on hand, so I can't help you repair it for the time being."
[Z] said: "Can you...find my past memories?"
"As long as the memory center chip in the brain is not completely necrotic, it can be easily repaired. This is not a difficult matter." Gama nodded, and then smiled bitterly: "I am talking about, before civilization is destroyed. Right now... I don’t know if I can find the right tools to use.”
"What type of tools?" [Z] said quickly, then turned over his bag, "Is there anything suitable here?"
A lot of things were poured out in an instant... There were all kinds of strange things, and they were all small objects and the like.
These are all [treasures] collected by [Z] during his travels.
This guy looks like a rag picker... Remia took a quick look and lost interest in these collections.
"What I need are instruments, not these." Gama pointed helplessly at the things in the secret room: "I need a lot of machines like this to be able to take apart some parts to put together what I need, and it also requires energy. ...Perhaps, if there is energy, this dormancy room can be renovated."
"Okay." [Z] said directly: "We will start looking now."
Gamma said: "Don't worry, you can't eat the fat man in one bite. In fact, we need more manpower now... Maybe I should wake up the remaining survivors."
"How many survivors are there?" Remia suddenly asked.
"I don't know the specific list." Gama thought for a while and said: "But there should be some in this city... If possible, I want to go to the company's headquarters, where I should be able to find more useful ones. Something. Perhaps the center of the company headquarters can still maintain operation. After all, there is an independent energy pool within the company."
"Energy pool?"
"It can be regarded as a semi-finished product of [Eternal Power]." Gama thought for a while and said.
"But didn't you say that [Eternal Power] is just a lie?" Remia asked in confusion.
"Even if it's just a lie, you still need to go all out." Gama said with a complicated expression: "After all, who doesn't hope that the lie can come true... My father spent his whole life trying to realize this lie. .”
"If they are alive, we have just discovered a few." [Z] Leng Buding said: "They seem to be heading towards the center of the city."
"Have any survivors woken up?" Gama looked slightly surprised.
[Z] nodded and said: "I will take you to find them."
…
…
It is quite difficult to walk on the road covered with snowflakes - although the snow in this ruined city is not thick, it is almost up to the calves and abdomen.
"Why is this shabby place so big? How far have we traveled?"
[Yulia] Senior sister was panting heavily - mainly because she had to carry Selien on her back, the situation was very bad.
"We can't continue walking." Medanzo frowned: "We need to find a place to resist the cold, otherwise we will have to freeze to death on the road."
When they came from the world of evil spirits to this place, they didn't even have cold-resistant clothing on them.
"There is a place over there. It looks like it used to be a building... It should be no problem to block the wind." [Yuliya] Senior Sister pointed to somewhere in front.
Soon, they climbed into the building through a broken window on one side - the building even tilted, and the door was buried under the snow.
"It looks like this is an independent office." [Yuliya] Senior Sister quickly looked around: "Something that can be used to make a fire... Something to make a fire... is available!"
She quickly ran to the edge of the corner, took down a hanging painting, and knocked on it, "This looks like it should be wood, but I don't know how it was made, but it hasn't rotted yet. It was burned like this. Anyway, It feels a bit pity.”
"It's really a pity that we died here~" Medanzo said lightly: "Don't you want your colorful world in the future?"
"Come on, senior! It's time to show you the traditional art of making fire!" Senior Sister [Yuliya] suddenly became energetic.
She dropped the hanging painting to the ground, and then picked up the broken wood. At this time, Medanzo picked up the painting paper in the frame and raised it to take a look.
"Landscape painting?" Senior Sister [Yuliya] came closer and took a look.
Mainly because when it was taken off, the mirror of the frame was covered in dust and the content could not be seen at all.
"It's a portrait of a woman. It's pretty good-looking." Medanzo said with a click of his tongue.
"Huh?" Senior sister [Yuliya] couldn't help but blink her eyes at this moment, "This seems to be...Miss Long?"
"What Miss Long?" Medanzo looked at [Yulia] in confusion, and then pointed to a piece of text at the bottom of the drawing paper, "What it says here is, is Miss Gama okay?"
Gamma?
[Yuliya] Senior sister couldn't help but open her mouth, maybe...it's just similar?
But it seems too similar?
