Who still falls in love in the interstellar era?

Chapter 167 Chain of misunderstandings (two chapters in one)

The dean suddenly pulled out his gun and fired continuously at the monster.

Everyone else on the bridge stared at the Master with wide eyes.

The monster disappeared before being hit by the bullet, leaving only a creepy laugh.

Russell stared at the bullet-damaged equipment, gasping for air.

The deck officer asked in confusion: "What's going on?"

The incident was so sudden that no one else on the bridge could react, so they were more surprised than fearful.

Russell: "Cut off communication!"

Communications officer: "Huh? I just connected and you didn't say anything..."

Russell shot the communications officer to death: "You are a polluted puppet! You actually want them to continue to pollute us!"

Many of the members of the Guiyi Sect, other than combatants, have spent all their money on the "pilgrimage", so they have no money to install prosthetic bodies. Naturally, they do not have synaptic acceleration, which is a must for mercenary lone rangers. thing.

The communications officer could only be shot in the head with one shot, and a mixture of blood and brains sprayed all over the console.

The Imam directly overstepped his authority and cut off communications.

Only then did everyone start to panic, and someone shouted: "The leader is contaminated!"

At this moment, the superpowers sent to the Cogito, Therefore I Am entered the bridge.

Unlike the one Wang Chao killed on the Doyle Space Station, this one was a superpower trained by the Guiyi Sect itself, not a random guinea pig chosen from the outside.

In the past, in order to cultivate superpowers, the Guiyi Sect sent believers one after another to come into contact with the "Tao" - which the Guiyi Sect calls gifts or graces. Only then did they cultivate so many superpowers. Among them, Many already hold high positions in the church.

For example, Jura, the gravity system superpower assigned to the Cogito, Therefore I Am, is already the de facto second-in-command of the spacecraft.

And he had apparently been watching the whole thing through a camera on the bridge.

Jura: "Take him down!"

The deck officer was still hesitating: "Sir, isn't this good?"

"Don't you see? He has been contaminated! No one is allowed to talk to the Jackdaw! Also, everyone who has just seen the communication screen on the Cambridge, lock them all up! Immediately activate the backup plan, and I will operate the battleship alone. "

Originally, a highly automated spacecraft could be operated by one person. After all, the Unity Church was not as overreaching as the United Star Cluster.

There are so many people on the bridge purely because of the doctrines of the Unification Church, but in this extreme situation, you don't need to care so much about the doctrines for the time being.

Russell shouted: "I'm not crazy! I have fought against pollution with pure faith! I just shot the traitor who was polluted and tried to prevent the image from being closed!"

Jura: "Then you should also isolate yourself."

Russell's eyes widened and he was about to retort, but he changed his mind, looked down at his hands and murmured: "Yes, I should self-isolate. I have been contaminated, and I saw the terrible devil smiling at me in the corner of the bridge. .”

Jura: "You are also a high-ranking priest who has performed rituals on the planet Solaris. You should know that what you see depends on you. Even if the superpower really has the ability of the psychological system, it is also the psychological system. It’s just my ability, you know what I mean.”

Russell nodded.

Jura: "Come, praise the name of my Lord, and then go to the confinement chamber. I will confine all of you alone, away from each other and the spread of memetic contamination. Let's go."

After the words fell, the mechanical guards on the spacecraft entered the bridge.

Jura didn't dare to let anyone come to escort these guys. Who knows what could happen. If the guards with spears were also contaminated, it would be over.

After everyone on the bridge left, Zhu La took a deep breath and sat in the dean's seat.

Replacement crew members have been selected - the automated system will do most of the work anyway, and the bridge officer's duty is just to create an atmosphere, so naturally he can choose at will.

The new deck officer asked Jura with lingering fear: "We won't be contaminated, right?"

Communications Officer: "I don't want to be a communications officer. I feel like this machine is polluting me."

Jura: "That's because the machine is now filled with the skull and blood of the previous communications officer, which gave you this impression."

A hoverbot entered the bridge and began cleaning the communications officer's console.

The communications officer began the Unity Church's prayer ceremony with great piety.

Jura: "Activate the quantum entanglement communication device and report to the headquarters that Organization

As soon as he finished speaking, the deck officer shouted in horror: "Look!"

After all, he was a newbie, so he projected the image onto the main screen without waiting for Zhu La to give the order.

Dean Russell, who had just entered the solitary room, stared at the toilet in the solitary room and said through gritted teeth: "You damn devil! My faith will never be lost to you! You can't even try to shake my will!"

Jura: "Switch thermal imaging mode."

The scene switched immediately, but Russell was still the only one in the space.

He was still muttering to himself: "Hahaha, how about it, your tongue is burned by my firm belief, right? You deserve it! You don't want me to give in!"

The new deck officer muttered, "Tongue? What did he see?"

Jura: "No matter what it is, it's just an illusion. The enemy's ability is probably the same as the true god in the Solaris ocean. It mainly uses guidance to let you see scenes that reflect the true side of your heart."

In fact, it is an illusion, and many senior church members who are more "pragmatic" like Jura are well aware of this.

Zhula thought to himself, fortunately, I am the second in command of this ship. If I were replaced by a more neurotic and pious leader, the whole ship would probably have big problems.

Those magic sticks are already going crazy, or have already gone crazy.

That’s why the United Church of God does not support psychologists, because psychologists will either go crazy together or discover the truth about this sect.

But superpowers now require psychology. If you think about it carefully, when the Guiyi Church "produced" superpowers before, the "yield rate" was so low. It probably has something to do with the fact that the believers are all lunatics.

Jura is a normal person, so he successfully awakened his superpower, and immediately saw the superego after getting the information about the superego.

Jura looked at his super-ego—according to reports he had received previously, half of the super-ego awakened by the superpowers of the Uniformity Sect was a handsome version of himself, and the other half was a beautiful person of the opposite sex.

It seems that humans are still quite simple and easy to understand.

When Jura and his superego looked at each other, the new communications officer was praying with great piety - yes, just like Russell on the screen.

When Jura noticed this, he almost immediately realized that this was very dangerous. He shouted: "Cut the screen! Don't imitate Russell!"

As if being "activated" by Jura's roar, the communications officer wailed: "I, I seem to have seen it too! It's a devil! Solaris save me! True God save me!"

Jura pulled out the sedative and hit the new communications officer directly in the neck.

The communications officer quickly stopped whining and crying.

Jura: "Distribute sedatives to the entire ship and inject those with symptoms!"

After a brief hesitation, Jura suddenly woke up: "It's prayer! Cunning guy, he has polluted prayer! As long as you pray, you will see hallucinations! Everyone is forbidden to pray!"

After Jula finished speaking, he realized that it seemed wrong to ban prayer on a ship where more than half of the crew were fanatics.

He immediately made up for it: "This is a test from the true God! We must maintain our faith in the true God without praying!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the new deck officer shouted in horror: "Look! All the people in confinement have begun to pray!"

This time he didn't put the image on the screen.

But he apparently connected all the cells' cameras via the Internet.

Jura: "You saw it, right? Did you see what was going on in the confinement room, right?" While asking him, he gave instructions to the computer to dismantle all the cameras in the confinement room, and cut off the network connection of the cameras.

However, it took time for the computer to send a robot to remove the camera, and the camera in the confinement room was ordered to be reconnected by the deck officer.

Jura had never been a captain, and he realized too late that he had to revoke the new deck officer's authority.

The deck officer exclaimed: "Oh my God! Look at this!"

The picture appears on the home screen again.

Or Russell's solitary cell.

Russell: "No, you won't succeed!"

The next moment, Russell suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the camera.

Jura originally wanted to cut the scene, but at this moment, he always felt that Russell was looking at him, and this feeling made him slow to react.

Russell: "You said that all my actions will be seen by the entire ship through cameras? My actions themselves will pollute the entire ship! No, no, you will not succeed!"

As he spoke, Russell grabbed his head with his prosthetic arms.

Jura cut off the screen, but it was still a little too late, maybe a millisecond. Someone in Cambridge had prosthetic eyes, and relied on the prosthetic body to capture the scene in this millisecond.

Among them was Jura himself.

He saw Russell crush his head with both hands.

Jura immediately realized that this image would have a huge impact on everyone who saw it.

Fortunately for him, he is a combatant after all and has seen a lot of blood.

But the same cannot be said for others on the bridge.

Jura made a quick decision and struck first before these lunatics went crazy!
  He activated his abilities.

Long before awakening his super-ego, his gravity control could control gravity within a five-meter radius. This ability was greatly enhanced after he had his super-ego.

He raised his hand and added thirty times the standard gravity on the ceiling - that is, the gravity of SOL-3 (Earth) - and all the crew members except him were pulled towards the ceiling.

The height of the bridge is not high enough. Even with 30 times gravity, the acceleration distance is not enough.

Fortunately, everyone landed on their heads and fell unconscious immediately.

Jura clenched his raised hand into a fist again, and everyone who had fainted was pulled together and "condensed" into a ball in the air.

The next moment, armed drones rushed into the bridge, using their equipped flamethrowers to spray purifying flames at the thing in the air.

Jura let out a long sigh of relief.

Then he ordered the computer to eliminate all targets in the confinement room.

No, because my control was too late, I don’t know how many people were contaminated.

All can only be eliminated.

Anyway, only one person can command the entire ship of the Cogito, Therefore I Am.

So Jura deprived the rest of the ship of command authority, and then ordered the entire ship to be evacuated.

He set a countdown and opened the suit locker on the anti-ship bridge.

If I was the only living person in the whole ship, no one would go crazy.

After saying that, he showed a proud smile, damn Organization X actually came up with such a vicious plan!
  **
  However, there was a flaw in Jura's perfect plan. He forgot that there was a hacker on the spacecraft.

Almost as soon as the countdown started, the hacker Li Lei on the spacecraft discovered an anomaly.

Li Lei immediately contacted several of his buddies: "It's broken! The superpower who just took over the command is going to suffocate us all!"

"what?"

Li Lei: "It's absolutely true! Let me black out the picture of the bridge - for God's sake!"

He threw the picture into his group of buddies.

Han Mei: "What is that black ball? Why is it like this?"

The group was silent for a second.

Li Lei: "It's not something that should exist in the human world anyway."

At this time, someone else exclaimed: "Look at the solitary room! The computer wanted to dismantle the camera in the solitary room, but I stopped it. Solaris is on top. What is this!"

New images are put into the group.

"This is the solitary room of the Reverend Guan! The Reverend's head was crushed by someone!"

This scene silenced the group again.

Finally, someone said: "There are definitely demons on board our ship! These scenes can only be seen in hell!"

Li Lei: "Don't worry about this for now. The spacecraft is about to shut down the life support system. Put on the space suit quickly!"

"Our authority has been revoked and we cannot open the spacesuit storage cabinet!"

"I'll restore it to you!"

"Wait a minute, why don't we just get on the escape boat and run away!"

"You are crazy. Think about the firepower of this ship. The escape boat cannot withstand the laser of this ship! We can only kill the only one alive on the bridge!"

While Li Lei was putting on his spacesuit, he adjusted the camera on the bridge to take a picture of the only living person on the bridge.

It was the man with superpowers, staring at the camera with a fanatical and terrifying smile on his face.

Li Lei said firmly: "He is possessed by a demon! Let's kill him!"

"No!" Han Mei said loudly, "We can't defeat superpowers, especially those who can destroy everyone on the bridge like this. Li Lei, control the quantum entanglement communication machine, we will buy you time, you Tell the Holy See everything that happened on the ship!"

**
  Jura frowned.

Some crew members have mutinied! It's like the entire United Star Cluster is controlled!

And these crew members actually took away control of the quantum entanglement communication device! They are sending meme pollution to the headquarters!

These demons!

Jura looked at the camera, knowing that the other party must be looking at him.

Come on, let me tear you bastards apart with my own hands!

Thinking this, he smiled wildly.

He didn't realize at all what kind of misunderstanding it would cause if he showed this smile just now, coupled with the hellish scene on the bridge.

He didn't know that the United Church would later call him Demon No. 001.

　I didn’t stop when I was writing... I didn’t split it in the middle. It’s a big chapter.
