Embers Ad Infinitum

Vol 2 Chapter 200: Their own dreams (End of this part)

After removing the storage device of the desktop computer and walking out of the room with the "red" window, Shang Jianyao looked sideways at the closed wooden doors around him.

He didn't try to open it, but withdrew his gaze and followed Jiang Baimian, who was carrying a dark green canvas backpack and wearing a military exoskeleton device, and went down the stairs one by one.

When they returned to the jeep, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen also received the signal to return to the team.

After a while, Long Yuehong sitting in the passenger seat in the car finally read the letter left by Lu Fuxing.

He exclaimed sincerely:

"Fortunately, we didn't go to the vegetative rehabilitation center of Renhui Hospital, otherwise the group might be wiped out, uh..."

He "uh" was thinking that Genava was not necessarily going to die.

In a word, the horror of Renhui Hospital's Vegetative Rehabilitation Center exceeded his imagination. Just by entering different rooms, you may encounter different dangers, and it seems that there is no way to prevent it.

For Long Yuehong's sigh, Jiang Baimian nodded lightly and said:

"It's a blessing in disguise in a sense."

Although she and the team members attached great importance to the vegetative rehabilitation center of Renhui Hospital, believing that the level of danger there was higher than that of Taicheng No. 1 Senior High School, they put it at the end to explore, but after reading the letter left by Lu Fuxing Later, she felt that she still underestimated the possible risks.

Just by pushing the wooden door open and entering a room, it is possible to go crazy, become a vegetative person, suffer from "innocent disease", and commit suicide impulsive, without any warning or detection of abnormality!

This is terrifying for any team.

Even if the "old-tone group" has awakened people at the level of "spiritual corridors", intelligent robots that are not carbon-based creatures, and powerful humans who have undergone genetic modification and biological prosthesis transplants, they will most likely have to pay one or two when they get there. It takes life to discover the problem.

Of course, Jiang Baimian suspects that the anomalies in different rooms are related to the corresponding "New World" nodes.

What they connect is the difference in the "new world", and the natural effects are different.

The "Old Tune Group" has two items, the "Six Senses Pearl" and the "Angel of Life" necklace, which can sense the nodes of the "New World".

That is to say, it is still possible for the "Old Tuning Team" to detect the problem in advance and avoid those dangerous rooms, but Jiang Baimian is not too sure about this. The essential question is whether there are multiple "new world" nodes.

In that dangerous environment, once the prediction is wrong, it is not the case, and the group destruction is really possible.

After a brief silence, Jiang Baimian, who had read through all the documents, made a summary:

"At present, all clues point to the Eighth Research Institute.

"Before the destruction of the old world, they extensively collected vegetative people and performed a very dangerous experiment, as if they were touching the forbidden area of the gods.

"This is likely to bring about the outbreak of 'no-heart disease', leading to the destruction of the old world, and at the same time their organization suffered some kind of influence and became a lackey of darkness, trying to erase the corresponding clues.

"Their base 2 seems to be the origin of all problems, if Fan Wensi, Li Jinlong's son Li Hui, and Jiang Xiaoyue were moved there."

Shang Jianyao responded with a frustrated look:

"But we don't know where the Eighth Research Institute is hiding."

After speaking, he turned his head to the side, looked at Genova, and asked expectantly:

"Lao Ge, is it really impossible to calculate the specific latitude and longitude coordinates of the Eighth Research Institute from the ballistic trajectory?"

"If you collect enough data, it's ok, but it was found a little late at the time." The honest Genova extinguished Shang Jianyao's hope.

Jiang Baimian followed up and said:

"Also, I suspect that the missile base and the headquarters of the Eighth Research Institute should not be the same place.

"When a normal research institute is being built, why would there be so many missile silos?

"A reasonable inference is that after the destruction of the old world, the Eighth Research Institute has mastered several secret missile bases, and has maintained a large number of people in captivity.

"Well, the protection measures for those missile bases may be stricter, and it is not ruled out that the Eighth Research Institute later moved its headquarters to a similar place.

"The direction of our next investigation is to find out where the Eighth Research Institute is, and then let the company and the 'Salvation Army' surround and strangle it.

"However, before that, you need to go back to the company to rest and collect more information."

"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong was the first to agree.

"What about these documents and suicide notes?" Shang Jianyao, who attaches great importance to feelings, asked with concern.

Jiang Baimian nodded:

"I originally thought to stay for a few more days. There was a missile strike here. The 'Salvation Army' observation station near here should have noticed it. At that time, the 'Salvation Army' will probably send a team to search all the way to find abnormal points. , just hand it over to them.

"But we have that nuclear warhead in the car, and encountering the Salvation Army in such a sensitive place might be a problem.

"So, go back now, take a photocopy of all the documents, and give this backpack, along with the documents and suicide note, to Ding Ling when you leave the sphere of influence of the 'Salvation Army'."

"I think this plan is very good." Bai Chen expressed his opinion.

Shang Jianyao thought about it and sighed:

"That's the only way to do it."

Jiang Baimian didn't talk anymore, and said to Bai Chen who was driving:

"Go back now."

As the jeep gradually moved away from Taicheng, Jiang Baimian couldn't help turning his head to look out the window.

The ruins of the old world have truly become ruins, and many buildings have collapsed, only a few survived, like tombstones erected in a cemetery.

The summer wind blows, and in the environment of the ice field, it is warm and peaceful, and the heat is not enough.

…………

After many days of trekking, those "ascetic" monks followed Palanga step by step to the vicinity of Taicheng.

Looking at the collapsed buildings and the scorch marks left by the burning, they were silent for a long time, motionless.

After several minutes, Palanga sighed:

"The omen has appeared, and the catastrophe is coming."

…………

On the borderline between "The Salvation Army" and "First City", on the dilapidated road in Yunshan, Jiang Baimian drove a jeep, and with the help of artificial intelligence navigation Shang Jianyao, went beyond the mountains.

"Why did Ding Ling leave the backpack?" Shang Jianyao deeply regretted not being able to stay.

Jiang Baimian made a "heh":

"I don't want to see other people sad."

The honest businessman said after careful consideration:

"Indeed, it's not polite."

Long Yuehong in the middle of the back row held Bai Chen's right hand and looked in front of him:

"Go straight to the company next?"

"Yes." Jiang Baimian nodded.

Of course, supplies and electricity will be replenished many times on the way, otherwise they will not be able to support the "Pangu Creatures".

"At that time, Lao Ge, stay in Weed City or the Black Marsh Wilderness, and watch the nuclear bomb..." Jiang Baimian muttered.

Genova made no objection:

"no problem."

Shang Jianyao hurriedly warned two sentences:

"Be sure to watch it!

“In the future, there may be occasions where it will come in handy.

"I didn't spend it on blowing up Taicheng No. 1 Senior High School and Renhui Hospital this time. I can give some people a surprise in the future."

How do you feel sorry for you? Jiang Baimian slandered.

During the small talk, Long Yuehong suddenly said eloquently:

"I discussed it with Xiaobai and Xiaobai last night, and when I returned to the company, I went to the Order Supervision Bureau to register, and then I invited relatives and friends to dinner at home.

"Team Leader, can you come?"

As for Shang Jianyao, if there is such an opportunity to play and eat, he will definitely not let it go, and Long Yuehong will not fail to invite him.

Jiang Baimian laughed while driving:

"I have to think about what gifts to give you."

"No gift needed." Bai Chen said.

"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong agreed.

Then, he sighed again:

"It's like a dream..."

Shang Jianyao sneered:

"Is this your dream?

"Find a partner, form a family, have several children, and eat meat every day?"

"Yeah." Although Long Yuehong was embarrassed, she bravely admitted it.

Shang Jianyao did not embarrass him, looked back at Bai Chen and said:

"What about your dream?"

Bai Chen organized the following language:

"There are companions who can entrust their backs, and partners who can face death hand in hand."

Long Yuehong held her hand tightly.

Shang Jianyao took advantage of the situation to look at Genava:

"Lao Ge, what about your dream?"

The red light in Genova's eyes flashed a few times:

"I have a certain understanding of what a human being is, and the next step is to find what it means to be human."

Slap clap, Shang Jianyao applauded.

He asked Jiang Baimian again:

"And you?"

"Me?" Jiang Baimian said with a smile, "Of course, it is to find out the cause of the destruction of the old world and the origin of the 'innocence disease', and find a way to eliminate the sharp sword hanging over the human head."

Shang Jianyao withdrew his gaze and said to himself:

"As for me~www.readwn.com~ the dream is..."

"No one wants to ask you!" Jiang Baimian was angry and funny.

Shang Jianyao straightened his back and forcibly finished:

"Save all mankind!"

Jiang Bai glanced at him blankly, and turned on the small blue-bottomed black-faced speaker that was placed beside him.

The song she had been listening to in recent months rang out:

"Do you remember your childhood dreams?

"Like a flower that never dies

"Accompany me through the wind and rain

"Look at things

"Look at the vicissitudes of life..." (Note 1)
