Chapter 757 The Truth About Nolan
The sudden news made Hao Ren a little at a loss. At this most tense moment, what he was most afraid of was that his eldest son, as the world server, would not be able to hold on. He looked up at the large ganglion in the cave. This huge mass of biological tissue was still emitting a faint red light and making a dull pulsing sound. However, this pulsing sound seemed to be mixed with some kind of noise. It was a huge The painful screams of ancient creatures under the scorching heat of the stars.
Hao Ren was stunned for a moment and then said hastily to Nolan: "Let it hold on!"
"Who?" Nolan couldn't react for a moment.
"No matter who it is, you can hear its voice, and it should be able to hear you. Find a way to pass on your thoughts - no matter what, hold on for a while! We are about to find an organ to store memory. , even if it lasts for a few more hours!”
I don't know if Nolan can understand these abstract and confusing things, but the girl's firm voice still came from the communicator: "Although I don't quite understand... but I will try my best!"
Yzaks heard the commotion here and came over and asked: "What happened?"
"The eldest son may not be able to hold on anymore," Hao Ren said briefly, "It is planning to end this nightmare."
"That is to say..."
"The souls of more than a billion Drom people will die when they wake up from their dreams - now I can only ask Nolan to try to cheer up the eldest son, but I don't know if he can hold on for a while longer. In fact, I am not sure whether the eldest son is It’s not like I can really hear Nolan’s voice… I still haven’t figured out what kind of individual Nolan is, but I can only pretend to be a dead horse. By the way, haven’t you found the location of the brain nucleus yet?”
It was Lily who answered aloud: "No, the nerve signals are very disordered. The closer to the area where ganglia are concentrated, the more chaotic it becomes. The terminal said that this is because the eldest son's body structure has mutated, probably to transform it into a suitable person. The shape of the server and the connection between its brain nuclei and ganglia are different."
Hao Ren raised his head and looked at the huge organ in the center of the cave. The strange mass of flesh that looked like flesh and plant vines was wilting at a speed visible to the naked eye. The dark red light between the tissues and organs was getting weaker and weaker. The beating sound also became slow and weak. Although the sea of fire on the surface has not yet reached this point, its vitality has begun to drain away. The voice Nolan heard in the virtual world was confirmed in reality: the eldest son's will is about to give up resistance. It has persisted under the scorching sun for more than two thousand years and has been trying its best to protect the human soul in its body. , but now it realizes that all this is coming to an end, and before greater collapse comes, it hopes to let the Droma people die painlessly.
Maybe it didn't even realize that a group of people were trying to save its brain core - its sensing organs were burned by the sun, and the underground part was completely used to maintain the operation of the virtual world, leaving no room to sense Hao Ren and the others. action.
"Nolan's communication may have failed," Yzaks' eyebrows knitted into a knot, "I can feel this ancient creature killing itself."
Hao Ren silently ran to the large ganglion and pressed his hand directly on an exposed gray-white tissue. He tried hard to stimulate his ability to connect with the will of other guardians. He kept repeating the call in his mind. : "Can you hear it? We are trying to figure it out in the real world. There is a spacecraft parked above you. We have the ability to transfer your brain core away - as long as you can stay awake before we start cutting. Not yet When it’s time to give up…”
The call continued several times, but there was no response at all. The eldest son was still weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye. Nolan's panicked and desperate voice sounded from the communicator: "It's dark... the stars are disappearing, on the street People are suddenly falling asleep one by one...with strange smiles on their faces..."
At this moment, the Giant Turtle Yantai hovering over Zhuomu is slowly climbing up, and the data terminal hopes to change its angle to conduct a more comprehensive scan of the planet. And just as it lifted the spacecraft into the sky, a terrifying scene suddenly came from the external monitor.
The sunny side of the planet Zomu quickly turned into a sea of fire under the heating of the sun. Huge torrents of magma surged on the surface of the planet, and large areas of the crust bulged under the action of gravity. Suddenly, everything seemed to reach a certain tipping point, and an unprecedentedly huge chasm appeared on the surface of the planet. The chasm is wide enough to contain almost the entire Himalayas and spreads rapidly along the path of the sun.
The high temperatures weakened the rock formations, which became a fatal breaking point.
Tens of millions of rock fragments flew towards the sun like exploding shrapnel. One-third of the surface of Zhuomu was peeled off almost instantly, and the huge chasm turned into an ugly and terrifying area. A human scar is almost as wide as a moon.
May and others on the bridge exclaimed, and the data terminal screamed in the communication channel: "Partner! The sunlight has reached its peak!"
When the huge earthquake above his head could almost shake ordinary people into powder, Hao Ren suddenly calmed down. At the same time, some vague thoughts emerged in his heart that even he himself could not understand. He asked Nolan a strange question: "You didn't fall asleep?"
The virtual world that Nolan lives in is ushering in its last dream. The whole world is slowly entering darkness, and all humans will die peacefully in their sweet dreams. At this time, Nolan may have become the only one in the world who is still awake. Humanity. After hearing Hao Ren's question, she was stunned for a moment, and then she finally realized something was wrong: "I... I'm still awake. I don't know what's going on. I seem to be fine."
Hao Ren temporarily suspended the communication and quickly ran to the black device that he had checked before. This device recorded information related to the construction of the virtual world and the transformation of the eldest son. Fortunately, this bunker is really strong and protected by the eldest son's huge body. The equipment here is still running.
After opening the search function, Hao Ren entered the keyword "Nolan" without hesitation.
Sure enough, the corresponding information popped up, and the content above made Hao Ren extremely shocked: "This is..."
Vivian and Lily rushed over after hearing the news. They were stunned when they saw the contents of the information. Hao Ren breathed out slowly: "No wonder, I knew there were so many abnormalities about her, and her identity must be unusual. , I just didn’t expect…”
Lily murmured to herself and took over the second half of the sentence: "She is the only NPC in the world."
"It's not quite accurate to say NPC. She is another part of the virtual world that corresponds to the eldest son," Hao Ren said as he quickly turned over plans in his mind. At the same time, he passed on all the situations he discovered. Arriving at the Imperial Admiral, "Terminal, I need some technical support here."
"Technical support? How much equivalent is it?"
"...I mean real technical support," Hao Ren gritted his molars, "Tell me how this information can be used."
Only then did the terminal realize that it had made a mistake, and quickly checked the information that had just been uploaded. Before it had time to be surprised by Nolan's true identity, it had already thought of a method: "According to the information, Nolan is this 'server' Conscious representation of the mechanical part?”
"It is not accurate to say that consciousness represents it. She does not know this herself. She is only running as a monitoring program for this virtual system. Her own will has nothing to do with this task. Her job is just to live in the virtual world. , just to let the external mechanical equipment judge the stability of the system," Hao Ren explained, "Now she can no longer affect the system. In fact, she should not have this ability to influence from the beginning... After all, she is just a human being. Check the code."
"This is not important. What is important is that she has a location in the system registry. There is a line inside her that is directly connected to the consciousness of the eldest son. Even if she does not know this line, this connection can still be used," the terminal said He came up with his own idea, "This machine can build a translation program. You go to talk to Nolan, and this machine detects the connection rules between Nolan and the system, and then uses her as a springboard to directly connect your spirit to the eldest son's mind. Go inside. In this way, you can not only keep your eldest son awake, but you can even find out where the brain nucleus is, and the next thing will be very simple."
Hao Ren said without hesitation: "Okay, it's worth a try."
"Are you sure? The eldest son's spiritual power is a crushing thing. You may become an idiot the moment you hear its whisper."
Hao Ren smiled: "But this guy is a good kid, isn't he? Stop talking nonsense and tell me what to do."
(Recommend a book, "Abnormal World of Warcraft", a wow novel, the writing style is very good, creative and imaginative. It can be regarded as a high-quality Warcraft novel that I haven't seen in recent years. In addition, the original name of this book is "Warcraft: Madness" "Young Master", but this name was too silly, so the author changed it to the current one = . =)
