Chapter 434 [Toy War] Space Twister
"Wait a minute! Dr. Wu, calm down. Did you bring a Kant counter?"
Perhaps thanks to the mental resistance of his own characteristics, Director Zhang was the first to wake up when faced with his colleagues who were on the verge of collapse.
He grabbed Dr. Wu's right wrist to stop him from shooting randomly.
After hearing these words, Dr. Wu, who was still rational, finally calmed down with a few deep breaths:
"Yes, yes, this is definitely not reality. I brought it..."
As he spoke, he rummaged through the pockets of his white uniform and finally took out an instrument that looked like a thermometer gun.
Following a trigger-like operation and waiting for the values on the screen to change, Dr. Wu gave the answer quite excitedly:
"60 days off! Sure enough, the intensity of space reality here has dropped so drastically. No wonder our fears have been materialized...hehehehe, there are no rabbits..."
Dr. Wu seemed to be happy for discovering the truth, and seemed to be celebrating his escape from danger. Dr. Wu's laughter seemed quite crazy.
Director Zhang, who was still calm on the side, had a stiff expression:
"Are you sure, it's only sixty?"
He approached, grabbed the Kant counter from Dr. Wu's hand, and confirmed the value again.
That's right, it's sixty days off.
Something's wrong, this value is too low...
The so-called "Hume Index" actually represents the "reality intensity" in a region.
For example, imagine that the entire world is covered in a layer of sand. This sand is our "reality."
They are stable, calm, and do not change at will.
But when we take a spoon and dig away the sand in an area, that area becomes less stable, that is, its "realistic intensity" is reduced.
Just like Fahrenheit and Celsius, 0 is the lowest, which means that there is no material entity under any circumstances in the area, only absolute nothingness and chaos - this is also an extreme situation that has never occurred.
And 100 is a normal value in our daily world.
In different copies, this value will be lower to varying degrees - after all, these "copies" are products that are divorced from reality.
But this kind of low is usually around 93~99, which is about taking a small spoon for eating and gently digging out dozens of gravels.
And 60 is like someone grabbing a shovel, inserting it deeply into the sand, and then swinging it hard, several times in a row.
The decrease in the stability of reality due to the lack of sand is not the most terrifying thing.
The most worrying thing is that the shoveled sand has to go somewhere.
This is the behavioral logic of the reality distorter. He shovels away the sand in an area and leaves it for himself, making himself extremely "stable" and able to do whatever he wants in the chaotic and illusory distorted space.
The question now facing the two members of the Investigation Bureau is, under this 60 Hume index, where did the missing sand go?
Are these strange rabbits and inexplicable human heads really just a projection of their inner fears?
Taking a step back, what is the source of this influence? Can a "Toy War" copy of "Eight of Swords" have such a large degree of reality distortion?
Thinking of this, Director Zhang felt cold sweat break out, and the uniform clinging to his body seemed heavy and unbearable.
He turned his head with difficulty and firmly pressed the shoulders of Dr. Wu, who was cheering for joy:
"Dr. Wu, Dr. Wu! Calm down, I feel something is wrong..."
But just as he was shaking the shoulders of his colleagues next to him, a chilling tone suddenly sounded from behind him.
It was a female voice, an elegant, calm, even beautiful female voice.
She was singing, singing a children's song she had never heard before.
"The big rabbit is sick...Look at the second rabbit..."
"Three rabbits buy medicine...Four rabbits cook..."
What is this?
Dr. Wu, who was still happy just now, and Director Zhang, who wanted to understand what was wrong, froze in place at the same time.
Without any additional reminder, an unprecedented sense of oppression came from behind with the singing.
It was as if a pair of invisible hands had pinched the heart, then exerted force and kneaded it until something inside exploded.
The two leaders of the Investigation Bureau were unable to make any move at this moment.
"Five rabbits died...six rabbits barked..."
"Seven rabbits dig holes...Eight rabbits bury..."
Together with this next part of the song, there were slowly approaching footsteps and the harsh friction sound of some kind of metal being dragged on the tiled floor.
So close, less than ten meters away!
The two players, although not rich in actual combat experience, were definitely experienced players. They glanced at each other out of the corner of their eyes.
It seems that in this way, they briefly gained a little courage - a little courage to face those who came.
The next second, the two of them turned their heads at the same time and looked at the approaching person.
rabbit?
This was the only thought in Dr. Wu and Director Zhang's minds at that moment.
A strong woman wearing a blood-stained rabbit mask was slowly walking towards them, dragging a long-handled axe.
It is easy to see from the blood on his face, fur clothing, and the ax that he has more than one or two lives in his hands.
As the rabbit killer raised his giant axe and chopped it down from a distance of nearly ten meters, a huge crack that tore the space apart was cut out of thin air in the place where the two subconsciously avoided.
The last thought of resistance in the hearts of the two players of the Investigation Bureau also disappeared.
In the song "Nine rabbits sat on the ground and cried... Ten rabbits asked it why it was crying...", Dr. Wu and Coach Zhang staged a desperate run.
In just two seconds, they had rushed to the locked door on the other side, smashed the door lock and rushed out of this "safe house" crying.
Obviously, they would rather face the dolls in the dungeon than facing this rabbit carrying a giant axe.
"Nine rabbits said... Five rabbits died and never came back..."
Watching the two leave, Gao Yi finished singing the last sentence of this nursery rhyme prepared in advance, and nodded with satisfaction.
Very good, the label experience of [Murderer] and the work of intimidating the members of the Investigation Bureau were completed at the same time.
