Chapter 1163 "Flowers and Trees, Stars Like Rain"

It was drizzling and pattering down the street.

Pedestrians hold dark umbrellas.

Seen from a height, the dark umbrellas form a grid, regular and indifferent.

Yi Lin entered an empty alley.

Go from here to there.

The drizzle fell on him, and it seemed that there was an invisible curtain, which separated him, and a hazy circle of light burst out.

Stepping forward in the rain, "Rhodes" dragged out strips of light composed of small numbers "1" and "0" behind him. The bands of light formed a "white windbreaker" style on Rhodes like a whirlwind. It was so dazzling in the crowd.

"Rod" smiled slightly, pulled out his right hand in the void, and a wooden mask was generated out of thin air and worn on his face.

On the forehead of the mask, there is a strange symbol. At first glance, it looks like a letter "l", but at a closer look, it looks like a letter "1", vertically crooked.

Yi Lin conjured up an ordinary oil-paper umbrella.

White clothes, oil umbrellas, and drizzle.

He passed a series of ignorant and ignorant residents of the Mirage.

Every time someone passed by, he would stretch out two fingers and tap on the forehead of the other person with lightning speed.

Benedict.

"Have a wonderful evening."

"Go to sleep."

Passers-by fell.

Boom!

White figures flickered strangely in every corner of the city, and everywhere they went, one person fell down.

roadside.

Inside the window.

The TV screen on the shelf is reporting a piece of news.

"Recently, a strange phenomenon of 'group syncope' occurred in city m."

The person who reported the news was a beautiful blonde with blue eyes. She was lowering her head while reading the newsletter on the table, broadcasting the news in an unemotional tone.

"Some experts said that this may be a probabilistic event caused by the change of seasons and hot and cold weather in recent days. The cause may be vascular neurological syncope."

"Since the onset of the first case of the disease, a total of 1,236 patients have appeared in multiple cities."

"Relevant experts say that vasoneurotic syncope is a transient sexual function disorder and will not leave any sequelae. However, if the 'syncope' appears nonsense and abnormal behavior after recovery, please contact the relevant department immediately and call xxxxx."

With the first time there will be a second time.

Yi Lin has learned how to mass-produce "awakened ones".

Based on his current understanding of the authority of "omnics" and his experience as a "nightmare knight", it is not difficult for a "ghost resident" to accidentally open his eyes and take a look at the real world. And just as Yi Lin expected, the increase of awakened people made the omnics aware of the obvious abnormality. If they are not stupid, they should know that someone is doing something secretly.

It will be a matter of time to be discovered, Yi Lin was thinking about one thing, and Nemesis' reaction speed was much slower than he expected.

Was it because he overestimated Nemesis before? Or is there something inside Nemesis that he cannot understand?

The drizzle became heavier and heavier, and the bean-sized raindrops hit Yi Lin's oil umbrella as if they were about to kill someone.

Yi Lin lowered her head, stared at the time on her watch, and started counting down.

After counting down tens of seconds.

Not far away, a public phone booth rang.

Yi Lin stepped forward quickly and picked up the phone: "Since you decided to connect with me, there is no need to talk nonsense. This call is only 24 seconds long. After 24 seconds, the hunter will detect where I am. position, and seal off the area."

"who are you?"

On the other side of the "call" is a woman named Bella.

A week ago, they received an anonymous letter, saying that they had learned the location of "Ark No. 11" through Tang En.

Yi Lin only sent a brief message.

The light sentence "Miss, you don't want the location of the ark to be discovered, do you?"

As a last resort, Bella was arranged to negotiate with an anonymous mysterious man.

"You... were hunted down by hunters 'again'?" Bella's tone changed: "Where is your login terminal? With all due respect, I don't think there are any other well-preserved sites outside of the 'Ark'." 'Illegal port'."

"What if it's legal?" Yi Lin smiled slightly, but glanced at the eighteenth street, a beautiful figure, like a jet, flew towards this direction at high speed in the air, and Yi Lin closed her eyes. Open, close your eyes: "It's 3 seconds less than I thought, I can't talk today, I'll come to visit another day."

"Huh?" Bella was taken aback by the other party's talking style.

"Bella, right?" Yi Lin said the other person's name easily: "Goodbye."

"Wait, wait!" Bella said urgently, "Who are you?"

"...I am, L."

beep - beep - beep -

...

After several contacts, Yi Lin's purpose was just to get online with the other party, not to really discuss the "anti-Nirvana" major issue here.

After many hesitations, the other party seemed to finally choose to believe in himself.

Knocking Tang En offline with one punch has already proved his strength.

Tsk, it's still a bit late.

next.

Boom!

A familiar figure descended from the sky and suddenly landed in the middle of the street.

Circles of shock waves visible to the naked eye spread from the girl's feet to the surroundings, and cracks appeared on the surface of the building.

The residents in the city suddenly stopped all movements, and the color of their bodies changed from "color" to "black and white" as if washed by heavy rain.

Breathing, heartbeat, everything stopped abruptly.

"Yo, new technology?"

Yi Lin looked at the short-haired sister who was standing a hundred meters away, slowly pulling out a long knife from the void.

Alice-101, anthropomorphic character: nier.

This is the fourth time that Yi Lin stood opposite Neil as "l".

It took 329 seconds for Neal to find the "l" the first time.

The second time, 225 seconds.

The third time, 118 seconds.

The fourth time, 21 seconds.

Apparently, Neil's search engine is evolving. Once Yi Lin appeared and made some moves, he was spotted by Neil in 21 seconds and found the location of her body.

No.

To be precise, it wasn't Neal's search engine that was evolving. Everything in this universe is under the control of Nemesis, and it is not Nier who evolves, but Nemesis.

When Yi Lin repeatedly disassembled Alice-101 for major maintenance, she observed the nanoworms lying on Alice's neck at close range and realized this.

The worm was getting fatter and fatter.

Without any dialogue, Neil shook his long knife and slashed down in the direction of Yi Lin.

The distorted light of the knife divides the street and the city into two halves, and what is cut open is the black and white distinct space in front of you.

There are no prologues, no special dialogue. Neil didn't know that the other identity of the "l" who was secretly doing things in front of him was her good brother. The hostile relationship on the surface made Neil not in the mood to gossip with "l".

Neil is faithfully carrying out his "mission".

Command lines that don't involve "brothers" don't cause fundamental logical conflicts.

Now she is strong, beautiful, and courageous, the perfect omnic.

laugh.

The flowing sword glow is as unpredictable as a liquid. After splitting the phone booth where Yi Lin was located, the phone booth was divided into two halves, and then turned into broken data streams, disappearing from this different space without a trace.

Neil blocked all possible "exits" nearby. This time, she calculated all possible escape routes for "l", and he had no way to escape.

Beep beep.

Under the silver hair, Neil's eyes flashed, and she was reading the data of "l".

But the unfavorable analysis, but once again lost the accuracy. In the eyes of "omnic", the mysterious "l" is like a black hole, unable to read any useful feedback.

After a few ups and downs, Yi Lin jumped onto the roof, looking down on Neil.

This city has been completely sealed off, and there are a total of five hundred and sixty "hunters" surrounded here.

They are coming here from different directions.

After smashing the phone booth with a knife, Neil struck out again, and the knife was fatal. The 100-meter building was cut into squares by Neil and suspended in the sky.

"never mind."

After a few hand-to-hand combats, Yi Lin dodged, as if teleporting, swept away a few kilometers, and sighed softly: "I don't want to play anymore."

In front of Neil's cell phone, he took out a palm-sized cell phone from his trouser pocket.

Neil was taken aback.

"Times have changed." Yi Lin smiled and pressed the "off button" of the phone: "Who said that you can't 'log out' without 'exit'?"

In the next second, "Rod", which supported Yi Lin's core data, fell from the suspended building fragments.

Boom!

It smashed to pieces on the ground.

Neil looked cold, looking at the "Rod's corpse" on the ground. After watching for a while, she tapped her ear with her palm, and began to mechanically execute the next step: repairing and restarting the "maintenance area".

...

...

The weather is fine today, the smog is thin, and the star rings in outer space are faintly visible.

Yi Lin pushed open the window, stared at the star ring, lost in thought.

In the past few days, the dots of starlight in outer space are denser than before, like a big airtight net. It doesn't feel gorgeous and beautiful, but reveals a kind of depression called "nowhere to escape".

now.

Inside the Yilin House.

On the fixed frame, the caliper is tightly fastened to an "Alice type".

This is a blank model that has not been loaded with any "intelligence", which is equivalent to the body.

It was shipped here directly from the factory, not even coated, pure metallic color.

"Sister, you should have guessed it."

The reason why Neil reacted so quickly is that it is very possible that she locked the terminal that "l" invaded, and it should be in the "Morning Star Mine". Otherwise, the speed at which Alice-101 appeared in the illusion world would not be so timely.

While drinking clarified and fresh engine oil, Yi Lin sat by the window for two hours in a mecha.

Gradually, acid rain began to fall outside the house.

The rings are dimmed by smog and light pollution.

Click, click, click.

"Brother, take care."

Today, Alice rarely opened the energy suit for protection, allowing her body to be corroded by acid rain.

When she arrived inside, Yi Lin stroked Alice's armor plate distressedly: "Look at you, the plating has been dripped off."

Alice didn't mention the matter of chasing "l" in the world of "Phantom Light" not long ago, and obediently opened her arms in front of Yi Lin.

Yi Lin skillfully removed Alice's armor plate, polished it, polished it, derusted it, and oiled it.

The humanoid skeleton and cabin configuration under Alice's armor were all exposed in front of Yi Lin, which looked a bit horrifying, but in fact, generally unfamiliar omnics would not use this "defenseless" picture Be honest with each other.

It doesn't matter if you say "trust" or "the trust level is too high", this is a small "kindness" between "Alice-101" and "l-1010".

Under the bright light, the traces of corrosion caused by Alice-101 being exposed to the rain on purpose were completely cleaned up by Yi Lin. When it was reinstalled, Alice-101 was restored as new again.

"alright!"

Yi Lin patted Alice on the back and sent her out the door.

"In the future, be more careful, sister."

The acid rain was getting bigger and bigger, but Alice still didn't open the energy suit. Yi Lin could only take an umbrella from the door and prop it up for Alice.

This umbrella is also a gift from Alice to her younger brother.

Before parting.

Alice fell silent for a long time.

Her eyes flickered, two bright and one dark. Yi Lin is very familiar with it. This is the expression of the "Alice type" when the logic operation gets "entangled".

After half a sound.

"L."

Alice spoke her mind.

"Brother" means "l".

"Hey~"

Yi Lin agreed, and there was nothing she could not do. He is a bachelor in this universe, frank and frank.

"Why?" Alice tilted her head: "Why are you resisting the 'Supreme Council'?"

She still seems to be stubbornly thinking that her younger brother is of the same family as her, and the reason why she became "l" is something wrong, maybe the system has been updated more times, and something has gone wrong. This is also a common failure of many omnics, officially called "update disease".

If something goes wrong with the update, it's not hard to fix. One is to find system vulnerabilities, and the other is to roll back the updated version and correct bugs with too high version numbers, which can be solved easily.

Yi Lin smiled: "Actually, I wanted to awaken you at first, but later I found out that this is impossible. Just like this umbrella."

Yi Lin handed the umbrella to Alice.

"You are all under its protection."

Alice threw the umbrella aside: "Alice-101, there is an energy suit."

But when she was about to open the energy suit to avoid the rain, she found that she couldn't open it.

【Fault. 】

A malfunction alarm appeared in front of Alice.

Yi Lin moved her hands and feet during maintenance.

"Look, your 'shelter' doesn't seem to be that secure either."

Yi Lin snapped her fingers, and the light showed a layer of refraction above the heads of the two.

"Now that I've said it..."

Yi Lin suddenly reached out and touched Alice's neck.

laugh.

A beam of dazzling light penetrated Alice's neck, soaring straight into the sky, breaking through the haze.

After easily crushing the "nanoworm" on the back of Alice's neck, a small chip fell into Yi Lin's hand.

"Alice-101" fell in front of Yi Lin.

But soon, "Alice-101" staggered back to its feet.

In front of "Alice-101", Yi Lin installed the "personality module" of "Alice-101" on the new body.

"I can't understand your behavior."

A hollow electronic tone came from the sound-generating unit of "Alice-101" that stood up again.

"'Me'?" After quickly transferring Alice's anthropomorphic module into the new body, Yi Lin turned around after hearing this: "Who are you?"

Nemesis has always referred to itself as "we", since it is essentially a collection of "consciousnesses".

Yi Lin noticed this strangeness, and realized that what was transferred to Alice was not the "Nemesis" he knew.

"You can call me 'kk'."

"So that's it." Yi Lin suddenly realized: "This is what I have never been able to understand, the existence of the 'Supreme Council' in the concept of omnics. It turns out that you 'Nemesis' are a collection of consciousnesses that are both unified and scattered. .So, in their eyes, you are the 'Parliament', not 'Nemesis'."

"Yes." KK admitted bluntly: "We all want to be 'Nemesis', but at present, only 'we' are Nemesis."

To put it simply, Nemesis is a collection of "conscious groups", and together they are the god of omnics. But they can be divided into independent conscious individuals, and only when they express themselves can they be the aloof 'gods'.

"You still have ten seconds to make a decision." KK said calmly: "Now you are no longer the agent of 'Nightmare', you are eligible to join 'Us'. 'We' have already passed a vote internally, With 76% of the vote, you got the 'Join Us' qualification."

"What if I don't agree?"

"If you don't agree, we will activate the emergency plan: formatting District 11."

"ten."

"Nine."

"eight."

Part of Nemesis: kk, ruthlessly began to count down.

"six."

"five."

"Four."

"three."

"two."

"one."

KK raised his head and looked up at the brighter "Milky Way" above the smog.

"Then, 'kk' stands for 'Parliament' and stands for 'Nemesis', sorry about that."

Click, click, click, click.

On Yi Lin's body, the armor that had been camouflaged for a long time fell to his feet one by one.

The rose-red blood crystals condensed into a ferocious smiling face in front of kk.

"Green will be angry, and the consequences will be serious."

Yi Lin laughed.

At the end of the countdown moment.

"Alice-101", temporarily loaded with "kk" consciousness, fell down.

The stars all over the sky, like intensive artillery fire, fell to the earth.

This scene is like:

Dongfeng puts flowers and thousands of trees at night,

more blown off,

The stars are like rain.
