Chapter 1049 Extreme Experiment (XVIII)
[On the eighth day, all four experimental subjects except Dr. Andre suffered from massive bleeding all over their bodies. We had to send these four people to the infirmary for rescue. 】
[On the ninth day, Dr. Andre, who stayed in the cell, began to use his own excrement to draw some weird symbols and words that we could not decipher on the wall. The amount of writing was very large until I archived this record today. By that time, he had almost covered the entire wall with shit. 】
This record ends here and there is no content about the tenth day.
Obviously, at this moment, Feng Bujue is experiencing the "tenth day"...
…………
After one hour.
"Sure enough, there is no exit here..." Feng Bujue came to another corner of the map and encountered a dead end as expected.
"Crazy brother, what should we do now?" Igor showed a worried expression, "We have visited all four sides and four corners of this floor, but there is no exit."
As Igor said, at this time, they had walked a full circle along the edge of this layer...
On the way, the two encountered three sleep experiment mutants.
Speaking of which, the three of them were also miserable. When they met Brother Jue, they all thought they were meeting "the same kind", so they didn't take precautions at all. In the end, someone suddenly killed them, and they really died in silence.
"There must be an exit." After thinking for a moment, Feng Bujue said, "It's just...'certain guys' deliberately hid it."
The "certain guys" he refers to are naturally people from the Foundation.
When he encountered the first nameless mutant, Feng Bujue realized that... the monster's "memory" had been corrected; he clearly still remembered various information, but he couldn't remember where the exit was.
Later, Brother Barefoot was in a similar situation... He could deduce the location of the archives room by locating his own coordinates, but he could never remember the location of the exit.
This kind of collective "disappearance of specific memories" is obviously caused by the interference of some kind of upper-dimensional force.
Brother Jue initially suspected that this was the work of the "system". But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it didn't look like...
Yes, the system of Thriller Park does do similar things, but the system's methods are usually clever and subtle, and will not give people such an obvious sense of surprise.
Later, when Feng Bujue thought about the sandbox theory, he understood...the guys who made the "interference" were the same people who created this crude sandbox.
To use a metaphor... the system is like a good writer. He can quietly, while advancing the plot, fix some small bugs that were accidentally left in the previous article.
And the Foundation...is like a bad reality show director. He will express what he wants to do too deliberately, making the audience feel false and helpless while watching.
"You mean..." After listening to Brother Jue's words, Igor thought for ten seconds and then asked, "The exit is disguised, so we can't see it when we pass by?"
"Haha...for a bunch of guys who can't even figure out the details of the environment, asking them to pretend to export...is a bit overwhelming." Feng Bujue smiled, "I think the actual situation is probably..." he said. He turned and looked at the corridor, "The exit here is not on the four surrounding sides, but somewhere in the middle of this floor."
"This..." Igor thought for a while. Then he patted his forehead and said, "Yes! This is underground, and the exit leads upward. In other words... the ceiling is the 'margin'."
"I think..." Feng Bujue took over the other party's words. He read, "The exit here is probably something like an elevator..." He shrugged, "The reason why we can't find the exit is actually very simple. Because there are no signs in the environment. If those signs are still there, we can We can reach the exit easily." He paused, "Of course, if Nikolai's memories are not blocked by 'those guys', we can also leave relatively easily."
The moment Brother Jue said these words, suddenly...
Buzz buzz——
A series of beeps sounded.
Waves of invisible energy surged in from all directions... and crisscrossed and passed by.
"Oh? What are you preparing for?" Feng Bujue stared at him with dead eyes and muttered, "Could it be that he wants to..."
call--
Suddenly, a fist blow suddenly broke out, interrupting Brother Jue's train of thought.
The person who launched the sudden attack... was none other than Igor!
"Hmph..." Feng Bujue snorted coldly and raised his arm, barely blocking the heavy punch that hit his face.
However, although he protected his head, the bones of his forearm were still crushed under the heavy pressure and broke.
"You're not going to hide it anymore, are you?" Feng Bujue said this, not to Igor, but to those "people who are watching here."
On the other hand, Igor took advantage of the situation to pursue and attack fiercely.
At this moment, this Soviet man was completely different from before. He was originally upright and simple, but in a blink of an eye, he turned into a fighting machine with a cold expression and ruthless attacks.
"Ah... that's fine." Feng Bujue retreated, his tone as relaxed as before, "No matter how you deal with it, it's the same to me."
Buzz buzz——
The beeping became more and more rapid, and all the scenery was distorted, making people dizzy.
And Igor, like the surrounding scenery, became like a reflection in the water, and his movement speed was affected by this... becoming slower and slower.
"It's clear that the technology is not up to standard, but you still think about 'over-interference', and this will be the result." Feng Bujue looked at the twisted things around him and commented calmly.
Six or seven seconds later, Brother Jue's arm had completed its self-healing. Then, he took advantage of his speed to stay away from Igor. At the same time, he shouted to the empty space in the corridor: "You think you can stay out of the matter and put me aside." Playing it like a specimen for an experiment?" He smiled, "Haha... let's see."
…………
Even though the space was severely distorted, it could not stop Feng Bujue's actions.
Five minutes later, Brother Jue found his way back to the door of the previous archives room.
Then...
"In a sense, this script is quite interesting..." Feng Bujue turned his back to the door of the archives room, sorted out his memory for a while, and then said, "It's not so much the problem that the system gave me. Rather, it is a three-party game between me, the system and the foundation..."
While talking. He took out the stack of documents from his arms again.
"The system wants me to break this sandbox and go out to cause trouble for the Foundation, but it has to try its best to ensure that the inherent difficulty and principles of the nightmare script are not broken; the Foundation wants to observe me and interfere with me, but it has to prevent me from noticing Their existence." Feng Bujue thought in his mind, "However, just being aware of the existence of the foundation cannot be regarded as 'breaking the world view'; at this stage, the system should be limited - I must start from here. Only by 'going out' can one complete 'cracking'."
While he was thinking about it, Feng Bujue quickly rearranged the document in his hand into the same state as when he took it out, in the exact same order.
"Right now, the Foundation is using this 'emergency measure'. It shows that they have given up on observing me, and have changed their goal to 'preventing me from going out.'" Feng Bujue's thoughts have been straightened out and gradually become clearer. "This change is tantamount to revealing a piece of information to me... that is - from the perspective of those at the Foundation... 'things that can help me get out' have already fallen into my hands."
At this time, Feng Bujue opened the documents again and scanned all the contents from beginning to end at an extremely fast speed.
"It follows...that I misunderstood the significance of these documents from the outset..." This time. After flipping through the files, Brother Jue smiled, "Those documents that look very funny, and those documents that I think are useful and related to sleep experiments... are essentially the same thing. Because my My thoughts were still limited to the so-called 'main line' and 'plot', so I subconsciously classified these documents." He shook his head, "But in fact... I only need to use the purest puzzle-solving ideas to classify these documents. The six documents can be regarded as the same set of fragments recording information.”
Think about this. Dozens of different pieces of information flashed messily in front of Brother Jue's eyes. Each piece of information... was like a slender spider thread, and finally... merged into a huge and well-organized web.
"Mereya...Russian...to the left..."
"The first 'five' days...nothing unusual...that is, keep moving forward...five intersections..."
"On the 'sixth' day... the situation took a 'sudden turn'... to where... where?"
Feng Bujue changed his mind and rushed. When he got here, he stopped where he was and looked to the left and right.
"In the next few days...the prisoners sat 'back to back'..." He repeated this sentence and noticed that there were two doors facing each other on the right hand side within sight, but there was no door on the left hand side. , "Well...that's it..."
After confirming the direction of the turn, Brother Jue continued to move forward.
"On the 'ninth' day...'four' prisoners...'two' of them...to the 'fourteenth' day..."
The next set of information is a little more difficult. You need to go to three intersections to find the keywords pointed to by four and two...that is, the number and arrangement of the doors, and then walk fourteen more in the right direction. distance to the intersection.
By analogy, after deciphering all the prompts in the first two documents, Feng Bujue came to the door of a room.
He tried the metal door in this room, and the voice he got was - [Old metal door, the lock is rusty, but it seems that it can be opened with brute force]
With these words, Brother Jue felt relieved.
Now he doesn't need help from others, he can just kick the door open by himself.
So Brother Jue entered the room smoothly and found a [key] in the room.
The appearance of this item is the verification of his previous series of reasoning.
After Feng Bujue put the key in his pocket, he entered the next stage of deduction...
"Started the second experiment...that is, started the second journey..."
"The experimental specimens and experimental methods used in this experiment will be adjusted so that we can obtain more diverse data...that is...this section will adopt new 'rules', which are more complicated than the first section. "
From the perspective of solving puzzles, every sentence in the experimental report can be interpreted as meaningful information.
"Fifteen death row inmates ranging in age from thirty to sixty...fifteen...ranging from thirty to sixty...um...odd or even?"
"One group, five...the same as the first time...two groups, three...two each for three and four groups...one each for five, six, and seven..."
This time the puzzle was more complicated than the first one. Feng Bujue thought about it for a while. Although he had some assumptions, he could not solve it.
However... he soon realized that the first part of the puzzle was composed of "two documents", so the second part might also need to be viewed together; therefore, in addition to the large number of numbers and concepts provided by the second sleep experiment, Feng Bujue also took the "Resurrection Disk Plan" into consideration...
"Change from water use to land use... change the purpose... change the mode of operation... change... the concept?"
"Novgorod... round... change the concept... put back into use..."
"Oh..." Brother Jue thought for a while, "That's it..."
When he turned the map he had drawn in his mind into a plan view from above, he immediately made a breakthrough.
This second part of the puzzle is indeed difficult... Specifically, it is to regard this rectangular base from top to bottom as part of a circle. To put it in a more vivid way... it's like a waffle.
Feng Bujue, who walked around the edge of the base, naturally remembered that the number of horizontal corridors and vertical corridors in this base was odd and even respectively.
One group, five, the same as the first experiment... It means the first step, walk five sections, and move in the same direction as the first step of the first puzzle.
Next... not looking at the second group, but looking at the situation of the first group...
"On the eighth day, a fight broke out in the first group, one person died, and the other four were injured to varying degrees." This is the next piece of information about the first group.
From this section on, the rules have changed. "Day" no longer refers to the section, but to the door. And "fighting", "death", "injury"... these words are all fulfilled in the system voice that can be triggered by each closed door.
By analogy, according to this set of prompts, the corridor is regarded as a part of the middle of the "circle" and moves step by step in a clockwise direction.
Sometimes, there will be a situation of "walking diagonally"; because the player cannot pass through the wall, walking diagonally is composed of three steps: walking straight, turning, and walking straight again, but it is still considered as a "section".
Long story short... When the second section of the journey was completed, Feng Bujue arrived at the door of a room that [requires a key to unlock].
It took him a long time to get here; even for Jue Ge, it was quite strenuous to compare the floor plan of the entire base in his mind, while taking into account several things such as encrypted information conversion and reasoning analysis...
"Huh..." After listening to the voice prompt, Jue Ge took a deep breath, then took out the key from his pocket and reached for the door lock... (To be continued.)
