Chapter 1261 Playing

The flames engulfed everything.

The earth shook like a blanket, the ground was broken, and the turmoil caused by the explosion of countless pipes enveloped one-third of the upper area.

The tongue of fire sprayed from the crack in the ground extended straight towards the central headquarters.

Like a shark rushing toward its prey from beneath the surface of the ocean.

bring destruction.

Just like that, unprecedented fireworks rose from the earth, illuminating everything again, like a second sun, scattering dust, gravel, broken steel, and mutilated corpses without hesitation.

The drumbeat of destruction progresses, shaking everything.

In the deep hall, in countless flashing red lights, the solution soaked in the giant brain seemed to be boiling. Amidst countless alarms and news of losses and injuries, it almost shut down.

And just behind the brain, there are five chains floating in the air.

The reborn chain of order wails.

Once again, a deep gap opened...

【mistake! mistake! mistake! 】

Among the countless alarms, one report after another kept popping up.

The giant brain is running rapidly, and countless parallel ideas are stirring in it, constantly reorganizing the communication, control and all changes in the entire city.

"Stop!"

Under the giant brain, the monitor in the wheelchair kept twitching, his pupils were scarlet, and he could no longer bear the terrifying amount of calculations. He roared hoarsely: "Stop now! Now!"

But no one responded, leaving him to struggle, scold, and try to unplug the cable, but it was already too late.

The giant brain was unresponsive.

It's thinking.

Extract all the resources, calculate the chaotic model, simulate all the actions of the adjuster, calculate countless changes in the future, and finally draw the final conclusion from it.

"Stop it!!!"

The monitor in the wheelchair twitched and roared hoarsely.

At that moment, the final calculation result appeared in the giant brain.

Giant brain, silent.

The operation stops.

.

"It's too late."

Amidst the continuous vibrations, Temperance stared at the rising flames on the screen and closed his eyes tiredly.

In the dead silence, he suddenly opened his mouth and roared.

Smashed on the table.

shouted angrily.

Everyone fell into silence, held their breath, and subconsciously shrank back a little, for fear that they would become victims of controlled venting of anger.

Soon, after a brief loss of composure, Temperance breathed a sigh of relief, returned to the chair, combed his hanging pale and messy hair, and regained his composure.

Just pressing the palm of the hand on the table stretched the veins.

From the very beginning, I had fallen into that guy's expectations and trap.

Like hamsters in a cage, they kept running wildly along the track drawn by invisible hands, thinking that everything was under control, but they were never able to break through the constraints.

Being played with and applauded...

Call a lawyer! ! !

Temperance clenched his fists, restraining the anger caused by these countless humiliations.

Even though countless good news came on the screen, he was never distracted at all - he was just thinking, chasing the trajectory left by that strange figure, looking for answers.

What exactly do you want to do with the lawyer...

True, chaos was stirred up, destruction was caused, chaos was created.

But is this his purpose?

But so what?

In less than ten minutes, when the company's private army and the Holy City's security guards were mobilized, a large number of armored vehicles parked on the streets and began to forcibly suppress all the chaos.

Under the urgent mobilization, the entire Holy City's power was put into operation.

With careful preparations before the start of the operation, all companies, important agencies and departments have completed the blockade and protection.

All organizations that dared to engage in head-on firefights with the guards were ruthlessly killed and turned into rotten flesh lying in a pool of blood.

This is the natural result.

The price paid by the saboteurs who hide in the shadows for daring to stand in the light.

But at this moment, Jiezhi looked at the good news that appeared on the screen, but there was no joy in his heart. Even if he saw the lawyer's most trusted subordinates being killed one by one, he still couldn't relax at all.

Where's the lawyer?

Where did the lawyer go?

Having spent so much effort, paid so much, and caused so much damage... it can be said to be a fruitful outcome, but is it really so? Are you just looking for a brilliant and shocking death in the battle between trapped beasts in the Holy City?

It's too ridiculous and too shallow.

So, what is his purpose?

At that moment, the screen with countless images paused for a moment.

A final plea for help came.

That was the final conclusion from the giant brain, a belated realization.

The purpose of calling a lawyer...

--【it's me】.

At that moment, the alarm from the giant brain was cut off.

Only the faces in front of the screen gradually turned pale.

[Monitor System], lost response.

.

"Holy!"

From the pious praise, the followers under the steel armor pressed the detonation button.

Immediately afterwards, following the fuse, dozens of dazzling flames rose from the deep and complex underground, blocking all support roads.

The believer who went straight down the steel cable controlled the armor and without hesitation pressed the trigger on the sluggish guard and broke in!

"Don't waste time, the opportunity is precious."

Behind them, the adjuster landed, moved forward with his hands behind his back, crossed the pool of blood and corpses at his feet, and walked into the heavily guarded base. In this way, he passed through the insignificant obstacles and defenses and stood in front of the final gate.

"Blow it up—"

"yes!"

The Iron Hound moved forward, installed the explosives in his backpack on the thick gate, then wired, moved backward, and finally pressed the button.

boom!

The sweeping foehn wind blew far away along the tunnel.

The dome above the head shook violently, and countless dust fell.

And just in front of them, the thick iron gate just cracked and opened a gap.

The shocked subordinate turned around and tried to ask for instructions, but Huaishi's expression did not change at all. He just coughed twice under the stimulation of gunpowder smoke, and then said:

"continue."

So, install it again, wire it, and detonate it!

boom!

After the heavy iron gate, the entire underground space was once again engulfed by the violent vibrations. After the communication system, the power supply system was also crumbling in the violent vibrations, and in the end, it was completely scrapped.

All light disappeared.

Soon, when the backup power supply was turned on, dim lights fell from the dome, illuminating the pale face of the monitor.

The old man in the wheelchair looked at the red-hot gate, unable to conceal his panic and anger, and turned back to look at the giant brain: "What on earth is going on!"

In the turbulent solution, two large characters slowly appeared on the screen in front of the giant brain.

【Enemy attack】

"What the hell, don't I know about the enemy attack?"

The monitor was furious: "Why didn't your system respond at all? Why did you find out when the investigators were already right in front of you!

Isn’t our location top secret? "

The giant brain is speechless.

silence.

There are too many reasons to report. Perhaps the other party has conducted underground cavity testing through constant explosions and earthquakes. Perhaps the other party planted a virus in the communication system and obtained their location. Maybe someone betrayed them and betrayed their location.

Perhaps the continuous chaos and attacks are just the other party's investigation and testing one by one.

Perhaps, this chaos, from the beginning, was to force him to reveal his existence through constant pressure...

perhaps……

Too many maybes.

Too much uncertainty.

But now, what else is left to say?

"Speak! Trash!"

The monitor roared angrily and banged on the barrier of the container: "Think of a way quickly. Do you think you can be safe by hiding behind it? You are dreaming! Where is the secret passage? Has it not been activated yet? Are there reinforcements? Are there reinforcements? Are those guys going to sit back and watch this place be destroyed?

We still have so many equipment and traps, so hurry up and fight back! What are you doing? "

[useless]

The giant brain in the solution calmly replied: [There is not enough time, we will all die in the end. 】

The monitor froze, sluggish.

But right behind him, the battered iron gate finally burst into cracks amid its wails.

Immediately afterwards, the armor was torn apart and shattered under the attack!

After the gate, the steel hounds filed in, raising their guns and aiming at the monitor in the wheelchair and the huge container behind him.

Finally, what sounded in the darkness was the sound of low footsteps.

Just like that, the final hurdle was crossed. Step by step, stepping on ashes and blood, we walked into the palace of death.

The dim light illuminated the long hair that had begun to fade, and the pale face.

In the air filled with the stench and gunpowder smoke, Huai Shi covered her mouth, choked violently, bent over, could barely stand, and gasped. After a long time, he finally raised his head and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Step forward.

In the wheelchair, the monitor stared at the other person stiffly, his eyes widened, his mouth opened, and he wanted to speak: "You..."

boom!

Huai Shi tapped the trigger with an expressionless expression.

The monitor in the wheelchair fell to the sky, a deep blood hole appeared on his forehead, and there was no sound anymore.

But Huai Shi kept walking, crossed the wheelchair, and continued to move forward.

Finally, it stopped in front of the giant brain's container.

After looking at the deformed organs floating in the solution for a long time, he suddenly smiled.

"hello."

He looked at the dark controller of the Holy City in front of him and sighed softly: "It's not easy to find you."

【Meaningless. 】

An indifferent response appeared on the screen of the giant brain - [Your destruction is meaningless. 】

"significance?"

Huai Shi looked at that line of reply, full of curiosity: "You already know what I want to do?"

【Meaningless. 】

The supervisor and regulator of the Holy City replied: [When I die, new accessories will be born. Responsibilities will continue. Your plan is meaningless. 】

"Destruction itself is meaning."

Huai Shi laughed, "Resistance itself is also meaning - it is this meaning that brought me here. I should at least face reality for once, right?"

The solution surged, countless bubbles rose from the giant brain, and the screen flickered violently.

It was like shouting in anger.

[meaningless]!

[It’s pointless for you to resist. 】

[All fighting is in the food chain. 】

【Everyone who eats each other will sink further. 】

[meaningless]! [meaningless]! [meaningless]! [meaningless]......

By the end, scarlet negation has broken through the screen, emerging from the floor and ceiling.

Even if you don't have limbs, you can't resist, and you don't have tongue, you can't insult. But the angry giant brain still repeated negative words.

In this brief silence, Huai Shi quietly stared at Ju Nao's rebuttal and suddenly nodded.

"Maybe."

He said, "Just pretend it doesn't make sense."

Throwing the question aside in such an understatement, the giant brain in the container was momentarily sluggish and unable to understand. But then, it saw the pair of dark eyes through the last camera.

As if created by a deeper darkness.

So quiet.

He was just indifferent, overlooking everything in front of him, but in the reflection of those eyes, everything seemed to be enveloped in the flames of destruction.

"So, what about your creation?"

Huai Shi smiled and suddenly asked: "What is the significance of your holy city? How can you be proud of your maintenance? What does your food chain count?"

Truthfully, take a step forward, stare at the giant brain in the container, and ask jokingly: "And what is the meaning of the mission and responsibility that you are so proud of?"

"..."

For another moment, there was a hallucinatory roar in the dead silence.

So sad.

But soon, the illusion disappeared in the boiling sound.

In the container, countless bubbles rise under the disturbance of the waves, the temperature rises rapidly, and there are countless thoughts in a moment.

Mobilize all units, awaken all resources, and squeeze out the last energy.

A silent scream.

Countless characters flashed across the screen one after another. In the end, in the flickering of the screen, the last characters disappeared without a trace, leaving only a blank space.

Only the final cry from the giant brain remains.

【Meaningless. 】

This is the final realization after the giant brain possesses itself, [This world is meaningless. 】

——[Me, meaningless. 】

Then, in the silence, hoarse laughter sounded.

As if he had seen the most ridiculous joke in the world, Huai Shi laughed out loud from his hoarse coughing, ignoring the blood that gushed out when his heart was torn, and finally asked:

"If that's the case, what if it's destroyed?"

The giant brain is silent.

The last light slowly extinguished.

Huai Shi turned around and left.

Behind him, the Iron Hounds pulled the trigger, and everything was equally bathed in the destruction brought by metal.

The corpse of the monitor in the wheelchair, the crew under the hall, the giant brain in the solution, and even everything... As the metal fuel and explosives were placed, the last sparks fell, and they were all enveloped in a dazzling light.

Just like that, it turned into meaningless coke and dust.

When Jiezhi arrived, what he saw was such a tragic mess all over the ground...

The center that controls countless changes in the Holy City, the treasure house that records and stores everything, even the eyes that monitor everything, the brain that thinks about all phenomena... everything is gone.

Only the last wisp of ashes was left, slowly falling on his hair.

This is the lawyer's gift.

"Sir, here..."

Behind him, the commander of the private army stepped forward and asked cautiously: "Next... shall we..."

Temperance said nothing.

He just remained silent, staring at the sea of ​​​​fire that was gradually extinguished by the high-pressure water cannon.

There was also the scarlet mark beneath his feet that seemed to be carved into the iron stone.

The color of blood.

"Chasing--"

Temperance looked back and asked doubtfully: "Did I ask you to stop?"

That old face was slowly squirming. Stimulated by anger and shame, something more ferocious could no longer bear it and burst out of its shell.

"Before I tell you to stop—"

With bloodshot eyes, he stared at the subordinate behind him and told him word for word:

"——Give it to me, keep chasing!"

.

At the same time, the top floor area under the sunset.

In the back seat of the car, Huai Shi raised his eyes: "Let's stop here."

He suddenly said: "Stop the car."

In the chaotic traffic, the car slowly stopped on the side of the road, motionless despite the angry drivers behind them honking their horns.

The man in the driver's seat was silent, lowered his head, and listened quietly.

“Everything that should be ordered has already been said.

In the next period of time, everyone should stay at home and recuperate... If you have any trouble, you can go to the guy in the original photo.

I've already told you how to contact you. If you can't get in touch, just wait. "

Huai Shi leaned against the window and looked at the scene outside the street, the city where the thick smoke had not dispersed, and the lonely square.

Thinking about the things that haven’t been said yet.

At the end of the day, I found that I had nothing to say.

"That's it, I'm tired."

He nodded, opened the car door, and finally turned around and said, "Remember to say goodbye to everyone for me."

But behind him, the driver couldn't help sticking his head out and shouting at him.

"gentlemen!"

He looked at Huai Shi's back and begged in a trembling voice, "Come with us! We still have a chance to come back again, and we will definitely..."

Looking at the man who was about to shed tears, Huai Shi was stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just taking a break, don't worry."

He smiled and waved, "It's time for you to go."

The driver caught up and wanted to say something, but saw the look in his eyes and stopped involuntarily.

In this way, he watched Huai Shi's figure gradually go away.

After a long time, he turned around, took a few steps back, and disappeared into the sea of ​​people.

The top floor area just after the turmoil was quiet. Everyone walking along looked at the man who looked a little embarrassed.

The trench coats of some years are stained with gasoline and ash, and there are traces of bullet holes on the edges. When the strong wind blows, the hat flies away, revealing long hair that is gradually losing color.

There was also a piano case in his hand. In the open piano case, there was only a slightly worn cello, with a small crack on the piano board.

When the breeze blows through the strings, the fine sound makes the hurried pedestrians involuntarily slow down and look back.

I saw the figure from behind who was lowering his head and adjusting the instrument.

As if he were dealing with the most solemn thing in the world, his expression was focused and careful, with an inexplicable look that made people unable to look away.

And when the first note rose, the world that was gradually getting colder seemed to become warm again.

The violinist lowered his eyes and gently pulled the strings, and a soft and bright melody flowed out of it, with a heavy and mournful undertone, echoing in the blowing wind, flying into the distance.

Like a gentle hug.

This is not an ancient rhythm or a well-remembered passage, just a random improvisation. But those pedestrians who stopped at a loss had gradually fallen into a trance.

In the recollection, something seemed to come to mind.

There is something beautiful.

There is something, something forgotten...

It was as if we were back in the old world again, bathing in the sunshine and laughing with each other.

But such a beautiful and simple thing has long gone, and has not even been able to stay in the memory. All that can be seen is the cold rain and indifference.

Because of this, when you wake up from this short dream, you will feel disappointed.

Then I couldn't help but want to shed tears.

The dream is over.

The young violinist stopped playing, as if he didn't hear the urging or entreaties from around him. He just sat on the chair, smiling quietly, looking at the sunset in the distance.

Until the crowd was dispersed by the sound of sirens,

A strange middle-aged man stood in front of him, lowering his head to recognize his appearance.

"Mr. Huaishi?"

He asked warily, "Maybe I should call you the lawyer?"

"Well, it should be me."

Huai Shi nodded and looked at his nervous expression: "What's the matter?"

"You don't look like you're going to resist?"

The man stared at him intently for a long time, then nodded slightly: "It seems like we can save some trouble."

Just like that, he took out a pair of handcuffs and showed them to Huai Shi.

Huai Shi nodded clearly, raised her hands, and cooperated with him to put the handcuffs on her wrists.

It was only now that the red dots of the laser sight fell on him from the darkness.

Densely packed and countless.

Like an invisible sharp blade.

The sound of braking continued one after another, and armored vehicles stopped at the intersection, blocking the road. On both sides of the street and on the rooftop, fully armed guards of the Holy City filed out one after another, raising their weapons.

There is no gap in the dragnet.

Immediately afterwards, someone rushed up and began to carefully examine Huai Shi's body, clothes, pockets, and hair, scanning them inch by inch. After confirming that there were no explosives, they added a layer of shackles.

In the end, a heavy armored vehicle parked on the side of the road, and the door opened, revealing a cage specially prepared for him.

"It's time to go, Mr. Huaishi."

The middle-aged man gestured with his hand and gave a final warning: "I think today's trouble should be almost over. Please put an end to it."

Huai Shi nodded without resisting and followed him forward. However, before entering the prison van, she couldn't help but look at the crowd not far away.

The steps paused slightly.

"The performance has ended, everyone."

He smiled and said goodbye to them: "Goodbye, everyone."

Just like that, after taking one last look, as if he had received some kind of salvation, he walked into the cage with a smile full of blessings and gratitude.

Never look back.

In the darkness, the car slowly started and started driving.

Huai Shi leaned against the wall, closed her eyes, and hummed the melody of the cello.

Just like that, he fell into a deep sleep.

After I finished writing it, I discovered that there were actually 12,000, and I felt great.

Please give me a monthly ticket!
