Chapter 209 "Human Future Research Institute"
"To be honest, I'm not sure about their situation. I have some bold ideas, but when I think about it, they may be too bold."
The man in the golden mask was speaking thoughtfully. At this time, a person came over. He was wearing a silver mask and was a surveillance officer. At this time, he pressed his neck and made a noisy and chaotic noise from his mouth.
Of course, this is just noise in the ears of others, but after the special chip is implanted, it can be heard that it is conveying some information.
"They seem to be flipping through some encyclopedia books in the library . This behavior is a bit like collecting intelligence, or in other words,..."
“Understand the world.”
After the man with the golden mask finished speaking, both of them were silent for a while.
"There are two possibilities. One is that they are outsiders, and it is a coincidence that everything is consistent. The second possibility is that something happened to them during their last action, and they were formatted. However, there are many things that cannot be explained..."
"Wait, let's not guess about this."
He interrupted the other person, took out a half-smoked cigar from his pocket, bit it between his lips, and lit it: "No matter what, one thing is certain, the intelligent machines cannot detect errors in their biological signals. This is enough."
This is exactly what they need. Otherwise, in their next actions, they will most likely encounter the defense systems in the "Hague Institute". They get a headache when they think of those densely packed nanomachines and the like.
According to existing intelligence, those "fellows" in the sea opened up an unknown passage to enter, but it is obviously impossible for them to take this route.
Therefore, in order to stop the gods from reviving, they would have to break through the outer defenses of the "Hague Institute"...
Including the "Hague Institute", there are only three shelters left in the vicinity, and most of the others have been destroyed for various reasons.
The "Hague Shelter" has both cooperation and confrontation with them, so they are very clear about how troublesome the "Hague Institute"'s defense with nanomachines as the core is.
Originally, we were planning to attack by force, but now that these people are here, we might as well see if we can avoid the defense system, or even use it to fight back against those damn bastards.
"I understand. I will organize our content and submit it to the foundation's board of directors."
"Yeah." The man in the golden mask nodded and took a puff of the cigar. After the rich tar and nicotine passed through his lungs, his mind suddenly became much calmer.
In order to experience the beauty of cigars, he even left behind a small portion of his native lungs.
Then, he asked in a mechanically synthesized voice, "By the way, what's the situation at the Future of Humanity Institute? What are they going to do about the situation in The Hague?"
"I have received intelligence that they have made preparations to sacrifice and mobilize the Level 6 'Twilight Angels'."
"Level 6 'Twilight Angel' huh? It seems that they really take this operation very seriously. Tsk, but they have to sacrifice another deputy director..."
"In addition, after they learned about what happened here, they also arranged a delegation, which should arrive tomorrow..."
The golden masked woman seemed to have thought of something: "Regarding the identity, perhaps we can help cover it up and avoid accidents. You and I both know that these people are a little crazy and sometimes can't tell the priorities of things. After they find the abnormality of these people, two or three layers may try to forcefully arrest and control them. In their words, it is to control the accident in their hands, but there is no need now..."
"I think so too. Hey , if it weren't for the 'Human Upgrading Plan' that these extreme human supremacists came up with, this doomsday might not be so bad."
"Not necessarily. Let's put aside our emotions and look at it dialectically. If it weren't for them, it's possible that everyone in the Asia-Pacific region is dead now..."
"Who knows..."
The man with the golden mask did not comment. He just picked up the cigar, put it to his lips, took a puff, and then extended it to the woman with the golden mask: "331, how about a puff? This is a special supply that only the big shots can get before the disaster."
"No, I need to put together a report on this conversation."
…
While they were having their secret conversation, Colin and the others also got a general idea of the situation in this world through various books in the residential library.
"The world before the disaster is roughly consistent with Earth's history, but there are not many records and no details..."
"There are different opinions on the exact time of the disaster. Some say it will happen in 24 years, and some say it will happen in 25 years... Now more than 20 years have passed, and civilization has almost ceased to exist. According to current optimistic estimates, the world's total population may be less than 30 million..."
Colin was shocked by the information given in the popular science books while reading them. He did not realize that these books might be a "trap" deliberately .
But even if you know, you still have to watch it...
At the same time, he also understood what the masked man had said about the "contaminated person"...
Those people have all kinds of mysterious pollution on their bodies. This pollution is difficult to perceive. The polluted people are not much different from normal people. It will only erupt when it is enriched to a certain level or under certain special circumstances.
Generally speaking, once a settlement's population exceeds three thousand people, and they are all contaminated, mutations will inevitably occur.
Therefore, the shelter's response is to patrol at all times, expel and suppress the survivors, prevent the emergence of large settlements, and execute those whose pollution index exceeds a certain value...
"No wonder Wang Hu mentioned settlements before. There were hundreds of people, and no more than a thousand at most. Was it intentional?"
Colin glanced at the page. It mentioned that several shelters, such as the "Dajiang Shelter" and the "Beichuan Shelter", were eventually affected and destroyed because they failed to deal with the surrounding conditions properly.
"Speaking of which, Wang Hu and the others do have some problems..."
Colin thought of the extraordinary enthusiasm of Wang Hu and other survivors when they mentioned "White Night" while on the road.
That thing is probably some kind of pollution, but enrichment has not occurred, so there is no abnormality at the moment...
"This world is really dangerous." Qin Chuan on the side couldn't help but sigh.
As an official, he could see that the classification of disaster levels here was slightly different from that over there, but generally speaking, the gap was not that big. However, there were no less than five world-shaking "S"-level natural disasters that had not yet appeared on Earth, but there were no fewer than five clearly recorded here...
As for Class A natural disasters, there are frighteningly many of them. In the Asia-Pacific region alone, there are 27 recorded cases.
However, the special situation is that there are not many disasters below level A.
Everyone originally thought that there were too many to count, but later they found out through annotations that most of the disasters below this level were swallowed up by others...
"It's just like raising a Gu." Ke Lin couldn't help but comment.
With the intelligence from the "Bonfire Company", he knew very well that this world was most likely an "artificial" world.
I just don't know who was able to capture so many things and detain them...
And why is this “artificial” world made to be so similar to the Earth?
"Come to think of it, didn't the survivors say that a lot of heinous things were done in these two shelters? It seems that we didn't see much. Didn't they also collect one-month-old embryos from pregnant women?" someone mentioned curiously.
"You're looking for a dark spot in someone else's shelter. Is that possible?"
Colin shook his head helplessly and continued reading. The book introduced a lot of research results of the shelter, such as the discovery of the use of certain new substances and the determination and utilization of the characteristics of certain shelters.
I don’t know how many lives have been lost behind these “achievements”…
Everyone sat in the library and kept flipping through books. Time passed little by little. Soon, more than twenty hours later, a group of people wearing extremely thick yellow protective clothing suddenly walked into the residential area.
Colin, who was sitting in the living room, stood up and looked warily at these people who seemed to be wearing humanoid armor.
"Who are you?"
"I am a member of the delegation of the Future of Humanity Institute..."
