Volume 16, Chapter 110 Dream? Reality?

Chapter 110 Dream? Reality?

The environment in front of me is my own bedroom in the Longyuan headquarters base. It can be said that I am very familiar with this place, but I don't know why, I always feel that something is not right. Confused, he walked to the door and was about to open it, but the door opened by itself. Dad stood outside the door and looked at me and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? I feel like you're not in a good state of mind."

"I don't know. I always feel like something is wrong with me, but I can't find it for a while."

Dad looked at me confused, and then shook his head. "You can go find the chief engineer to check it for you later. You have to go there to get the equipment anyway."

"Anything new?"

"Yeah, but it's not important equipment."

"Oh, I'll be there in a minute."

Dad nodded and handed me some information. "Take this thing." I took the file and flipped through it, and found that it was all personal information of some people. After I looked at my father with a puzzled look, my father explained: "The last matter was not dealt with completely, and someone still leaked the news. These people have expanded the scope of the seal."

"What happened last time?" There seems to be a memory of what happened last time in my brain, but it seems vague, but it seems to be the case in my mind. I don’t know why, but my mental state has been very strange today, but I don’t intend to dwell on this matter. "How far will this sealing mission be carried out?"

"Special grade."

"Is this necessary?" I flipped through the information in my hand again. This thing is very thick, but in fact, the introduction to each person is only one page, which means that there are very many people to deal with, and one piece of information represents more than one person. It is inevitable for us to deal with one person. This person's family is implicated, so the number of people who are really unlucky because of this information will be far more than the number of people listed in the information.

Dad answered my questions very firmly. "Between you and those seemingly innocent people I value your lives more, what about your own?"

I nodded. I no longer think about such things. The existence of these people threatens the survival of our dragon clan. If they don't die, we may die, and many ordinary humans will die because of these people, so the best way is to let these people die. Although those hypocrites have been shouting that human life cannot be measured in numbers, in my opinion, how to avoid greater casualties is truly kind, instead of shouting that every life is important but looking at more lives disappear.

After I separated from my dad, I came to the medical insurance area of ​​​​our agency in a daze. The reason why I use the word dazed is because I don’t know how I got here. It feels like I thought about something after talking to my dad. , and that’s it. As for the middle process, I have no impression. But what the hell? This is not a very important thing.

"You're finally here." Several researchers gathered around me as soon as they saw me, and then they began to put various equipment on me. In the end, they hung a whole set of equipment that looked exactly like the magic dragon armor. Got to me. Before I asked the question, the other party replied: "This is still your tactical armor, but with some new tricks added, basically no major changes."

"Boss." Scott, who was as fully armed as me, walked over from the side. "Everyone has gathered and is waiting for you."

I nodded. "Then let's go."

Just like when I went to the research room before, I fell into a trance and when I woke up again, I was already in a shaking enclosed space. With my senses I was sure it was the back of a container truck. Sitting next to me were all the ring knights and my magic pets. I even saw Bailang, Xiao Dot and the little phantom. Wait...little phantom?

Seeing that I finally noticed him, this little guy immediately moved desperately towards me in a very difficult posture. However, his movements seemed to be moving through sticky paste, and it seemed that every step required a huge effort. strength. The little guy just crawled over the distance of less than one meter and came to me under my surprised eyes. Then he reached out and handed me a piece of crystal that was shining with green light. After I caught the crystal, he moved his mouth to me, but I didn't hear anything, and then he just disappeared. What's even weirder is that the familiars and bell knights around me have been busy with their own things as if they didn't see him at all.

I looked at the crystal in my hand with doubts. Its existence showed that it was not my illusion, but this crystal...? While I was dazed, the crystal in my hand began to gradually brighten. In just two or three seconds, the light on its surface changed from a faint green light to a dazzling bright light, and with the shining of this strong light, There was a sharp pain in the palm of my hand, as if it had been burned, and even with my willpower, I couldn't help but cry out.

"What's wrong with you?" The surrounding demon pets and bell knights all heard my cry and gathered around me.

I was stunned for a moment, then looked at my empty palms again. Now my mind is simply a mess. A large number of irrelevant things are crazily occupying my thinking and computing power. It feels like a computer infected with a computer virus. "I...it's okay. Just prepare yourselves."

When I said it was okay, everyone immediately dispersed. Ling, who was sitting next to me, patted my shoulder. "Master, are you busy today? I always feel like you are a little absent-minded."

"It's okay, it's really okay." This time I answered much faster, because my thinking was gradually returning to normal, and at the same time some vague things suddenly became clear. The image of the little demon just now is the little guy's mental projection. Now I finally remember my current situation. This is not reality, this is my dream. I entered the inner demon illusion created by the most powerful demon. All of this was virtualized by her based on my thinking and memory. What I had to deal with here was what I was most worried about. Can I pass it? The key to this illusion is not to see how well the tasks here are completed, but to see whether I can still maintain a rational mind after encountering various situations.

I have to say that the reward for the little guy is still very cost-effective. If I don't wake up now, in a dream where I don't know that I am dreaming, the outcome of the matter will be troublesome. I thought this was reality until the little guy woke me up. But now it's all clear, it was just my dream. I said that every time I was in a trance, I would switch from one scene to another. It turned out that this was all because I was dreaming. There is almost no excessive sexual environment in people's dreams. People's dreams often jump from one scene to another as soon as they turn around. Even two completely unrelated scenes will be connected together in dreams. For example, some people often dream that they suddenly arrive at their own home after walking out of the classroom, as if the door of the classroom is the door of their own home and the two rooms are connected.

Now that I understand that I am dreaming, I gradually understand many things. These familiars and ring knights around me should not be their true bodies. They are all projections of my own thinking. In other words, they are the images left by these people in my memory, not the true bodies of those people.

After I briefly sorted out the current situation, I can roughly guess that this dream is about reality, and my inner demon is probably the human view of the dragon family, because the task we are currently performing is to clean up the human race. Those who know, don’t let more ordinary people know about the existence of our dragon clan. According to the tips given by the little guy, the key to passing the test is not the task but the state of mind, so as long as you stay calm, it doesn't matter how good the task is.

Now that I know the situation, I have a bottom line. I watched calmly as everyone was arranging their equipment, and I followed suit. I just thought of it as a simulation training. Although the surrounding environment looks like the real world, it is actually no different from the game world. This is still in the game at all. The difference is that you cannot use gorgeous magic and some special skills in this game area. But even in reality, our dragon family is not completely unable to use supernatural powers, so I will not be too restricted here. .

After the truck ran wildly on the road for a while, a yellow light suddenly came on in the cabin. This thing is the same as the airborne indicator light in an airplane. We all turned our bodies to face the rear door and checked our equipment again. Five seconds later, the yellow light changed to red, and we all tightly grabbed the metal pole around us to stabilize ourselves. The car suddenly stopped and turned, turning almost 180 degrees. The door at the rear of the car was almost thrown open by inertia, and we didn't waste any time and directly used inertia. Flying out of the car.

As soon as we landed, we immediately rushed to the door of the small villa facing us. Scott and another Ring Knight went up and kicked the door down. Several Ring Knights rushed in and scattered. The three Ring Knights went directly to the second floor, and the other two Ring Knights ran to the rooms on both sides. The Ring Knight who went upstairs jumped directly from the window upstairs to the ground at the door in a few seconds. The Ring Knight who went to the rooms on both sides also quickly returned and nodded to me, followed us and quickly jumped back to the car, and A non-residue incendiary bomb was thrown into the room before the trunk door closed. The house suddenly burned down after our car was far away, but that had nothing to do with me.

Because the scenes in the dream were very messy, I felt like we cleared out a lot of people in just a short while. This feeling is very strange, as if you suddenly have a memory that shows that you have just completed a lot of work, but you have no memory of how you completed it, but it was completed anyway. As soon as the scene changed, we returned to the base, and then we all had a chat and went to rest separately. Then the scene changed again and it was morning. I have no memory of the process at all. I was suddenly called to the training ground. My demon pets and the artificial human beings who summoned creatures were all here. Tens of thousands of people stood there in a densely packed area, and there was a temporary building similar to a 'chairman' platform in front of me. , Dad stood on it with several old men.

As I arrived, the scene started to move, and my father said a lot of words on the stage, but since this was a dream, it actually just passed by in a flash, but I knew what he said. Unexpectedly, the flash of time before was not a day but a week. Of course, I have no memory of this week at all. The current dream time should be a week after we performed the mission that night. What happened next was that our mission was not thorough enough and some people were not cleared out. Moreover, the news has now been leaked, and some people in the society also know about our mission. It exists, and it seems that public opinion and the media have intervened in this matter. Now, instead of being able to keep it secret, our Dragon Clan has become a well-known existence. Dad urgently announced this news to prepare us.

Then the dream began to move again, and the scenes in between were piece by piece, like memory fragments. The contents of these fragments are the various news I came into contact with in various places, and these news gradually reflect the common people's views on us. First, some boring people in society criticized us, saying that dragons are artificial species and inconsistent with the laws of nature. Then there are some defenders of religion and ethics who oppose our existence. Ordinary people have also begun to have complex emotions such as fear, jealousy, and disgust towards us beings that surpass human beings in all aspects.

It only takes a few months for these things to change in reality, but in the dream it really passed by in a flash, and then the dream time was pushed back six months. The central government broke through the pressure of public opinion and officially recognized the existence of a special biological force such as the Dragon Clan. However, the opinion of high-level officials is that the Dragon Clan belongs to the national force and is a supplement and extension of the functions of the national army. But things are not just what the 'government' says. Since the dragon race is a special biological force unique to China, other countries have begun to create various public opinions against the biological man plan. Anyway, if they don't have us, they have to describe us as evil and incorrect. The common people did not have much judgment at all under the guidance of public opinion from foreign forces, and then the world's human purification organizations began to appear. This organization is a bit like the previous Green Peace Organization, but they are not protecting the natural environment. But to protect the pure 'sex' of human beings. This organization opposes all unnatural human genetic changes, and has transplanted the previous sense of ethnic superiority between whites over blacks and whites over yellow people into a sense of superiority and rejection of all unnatural races. This organization believes that the development of our dragon race will inevitably threaten human dominance and eventually lead to human extinction.

The number of supporters of such ideas began to increase gradually, and eventually the country began to lose control. Some people in the 'government' departments also began to believe the arguments of these foreign media. After all, a lie can become true if it is told a hundred times. It's a made-up word.

These fast-forward dreams quickly flashed through more than a year. To be honest, I have never had a dream with this kind of time span before, but this fantasy is not entirely my dream, so it is a bit strange. It's also normal. I kept calm and watched the changes in the dream. The situation of Long Yuan is getting worse and worse. Many people have begun to boycott our Dragon family and the products of Long Yuan Group. Some employees of the company took the initiative to resign and distance themselves from us. In the end, even some confidential information was taken away by the resigned employees. Go out and break the news to the media. The entire Longyuan Group suddenly fell like a giant. The 'government' finally couldn't withstand the pressure and began to ban us. A large number of ordinary people mixed in and played a role in fueling the flames. The Dragon Clan turned into mice crossing the street, everyone shouted and beat us.

The final dream finally arrived. Unexpectedly, the quick shot ended with the fall of Longyuan headquarters. Ordinary researchers suffered numerous casualties, and our dragon clan was forced to withdraw from the base and start moving to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Different from reality, many things in dreams make no sense. For example, what I see now is that many ordinary people and foreign troops are attacking us together with our own army. Some of the ordinary people are even old men. Wife and child. In reality, even if the Dragon Clan is really in this state, it is impossible for the government to allow ordinary people to participate in this kind of encirclement and suppression battle, let alone a large group of foreign troops mixed in, making it seem as if all human armies are attacking us. .

The battle scene was very tragic. A large number of humans died under our hands as far as I could see, but they rushed forward desperately as if they didn't know whether they would live or die. If such a battle really happened under real circumstances, the common people would have fled long ago, but now they are swarming in like thugs, as if we and them have sworn hatred. This dream war lasted for a long time, but this long time is the time shown in my memory. In fact, I feel that the scene just flashed by. What happened next was that we suffered heavy casualties under the attack of all mankind. What's funny is that we actually suffered a few nuclear bombs. In reality, some country would dare to drop nuclear bombs on Chinese soil, unless they intend to destroy the country.

The few remaining familiars and the incomplete formation of Ring Knights and I finally retreated to the mountainous areas farther west on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The large human troops here couldn't come in at all, and the general special forces were against us. It's as useless as a kid in kindergarten. The battle situation just stabilized. The scene changed, and the remaining dragon clan members and I were sitting at the entrance of a cave similar to a frontline base having a heart-to-heart talk, and at this time, the little phantom that had disappeared for a long time actually appeared again. The little guy may have accumulated some strength, but after all, he is still at the end of his strength. He just sent me a message. "This is the final test. Remember not to lose your mind. No matter what decision you make, it doesn't matter. As long as you make it in a rational state, even if it is a wrong decision, it will be regarded as passing the test, otherwise everything will be over!" This is the only piece of information, and I control my thinking more carefully.

"Master, there are only so many of us left, what should we do next?" Scott sat next to me with a gray face and asked.

Ling took over and replied: "Now it seems that peaceful coexistence is no longer possible. We have overestimated the degree of human evolution. Facts have proved that human beings are a species with strong animal instincts and cannot be bound by simple ethics. Once If the emergence of a threat to their existence, no matter what it is, they will immediately give up the restraints they have imposed on themselves and return to the state of beasts. I don’t think we need to consider the issue of coexistence. What we really need to consider is giving up our own right to exist and destroying the earth. Return to humanity or eliminate humanity and become their replacement.”

I didn't expect such a sharp choice to come up at the beginning of the conversation, but I knew this was not a simple question. Although the little guy reminded me that my choice is not the key, but my attitude is fundamental, I still had to think carefully about these two choices. What should we do if such a day really happens in reality? Exterminate humanity? Or allow yourself to become extinct?
