As an "outsider" who has just come to this world for a short time, Hao Ren can't empathize with Nolan's thoughts, and it's hard for him to understand how deeply affected a person by thousands of years of continuous reincarnation just by imagining, but one thing he can be sure of is that the world in Nolan's eyes has long faded - everything is ethereal, everything has lost its meaning, and when the whole world becomes a stage play that can be removed and changed at any time, It's hard for her to have any texture on things in the world.In each reincarnation, she continues to accumulate experience and knowledge, and at the same time, she also accumulates a thick shell deep inside, and she is right, if the world can be reset at any time, then there is really no value in retaining feelings for all things in the world.What you cherish, what you hate, what you trust, is temporary, everything is arranged.It is possible that they will all change their identities as soon as they wake up, and it is even possible that in front of your eyes, former friends will be set up as enemies.After all these long years, Nolan has learned to survive in the most efficient way possible, and has become ready to give up everything, including the Grey Fox mercenary group that he has formed.But now Hao Ren and the corpse terminal have become an exception in her eyes: for the first time in thousands of years, she has found someone who can retain the memory of reincarnation like herself, which means undoubted to Nolan, and she feels that she finally has a partner, a partner in the true sense of the word.That's why she didn't hesitate to tell Hao Ren everything she knew, and even ignored Hao Ren and the corpse Ji's somewhat strange words and deeds, now for her, the most important thing is to let the two compatriots in front of her quickly understand the situation, which means that she can live better.The sun had already completely sunk into the mountain, and the two small moons came to the entrance of the cave from the horizon one after the other, and carefully confirmed the situation outside again: "It seems that the battle at the launch base is really over, and I didn't hear the sound of self-explosion......
It was supposed to be controlled by the Imperial Marines before it was detonated. ”"Anyway, no one should find out about this place, right?"
Hao Ren walked up from behind, turned his head and glanced at the cave, where the corpse was studying the cold light stick hanging on the car with a curious expression, and the light emitted by the light stick leaked slightly from the mouth of the cave, "Those soldiers won't pass by this road when they evacuate?"
”"It's safe here, I've surveyed it......
I've surveyed it in memory," Nolan nodded, "As long as you don't light the campfire, it's fine, the Imperial Marine Corps' remote sensing infrared detectors are still quite sensitive." ”Hao Ren sighed, looked up at the sparse starry sky above, a strange group of stars flickered in front of his eyes, he was hovering in his mind about the next exploration plan, and said casually: "The stars are very beautiful......
"Yes, very beautiful," Nolan raised his head, his eyes opened slightly, as if he suddenly realized the stars above his head at this time, "I really miss it......
I haven't seen a star in more than a decade.It seems that this time the script is not too bad, at least the sky is open. ”"I can't imagine that six hours ago, the world was still shrouded in dust and mist that lasted for decades, and there was also a smell of tar in the air," Hao Ren sighed, and suddenly remembered a question, "Anyway, has the starry sky changed in the past reincarnations?"
”Nolan shook his head: "The starry sky hasn't changed much, probably because it's too far away from humans, and humans can't touch them at all, and the 'director' behind the world doesn't seem to have bothered to make a more refined starry sky at all."
And after so many reincarnations, I haven't seen humans develop to the stage of alien colonization once. ”Hao Ren was silent thoughtfully, until Nolan tugged at the corner of his clothes: "Go back, eat something, rest early today, and have to hurry tomorrow." ”The two returned to the cave, and the corpse girl beckoned to Hao Ren: "Yo, partner, is the bubble girl back?"
”Nolan glared at Hao Ren: "......
What is the pattern of your relationship?
”She is completely unclear about the relationship between Hao Ren and this blonde girl, this can't be helped, you forcibly reverse the style of painting from a touching love tragedy to a love apartment, this is to pull a sociologist over and he can't figure it out!
The corpse Ji terminal was free and easy, patting her chest with a smug face: "This machine and your partner are friends of life and death!"
”Hao Ren thought about it, and unexpectedly found that what he said was right, especially the words life and death......
Nolan rummaged through the car for supplies, which in those memories that fell from the sky, she had replenished twenty-four hours earlier in the town below the mountain.She threw two packets of compressed dry food and two bottles of water to Hao Renhe Terminal: "Eat as you like, don't eat too much, it will lower your vigilance." ”Hao Ren took the food with a sigh, and before he could tear the package, the corpse Ji next to him secretly tugged at his sleeve: "Hey, can this machine eat?"
”The familiar feeling of the head came immediately, and Hao Ren looked at the blonde girl beside him with twitching eyes: "Why don't you ......
Do you try it with saliva first?
”The corpse queen clumsily unscrewed the water bottle and poured it, smacking her lips and muttering: "It feels like it fell directly into the stomach, and then it seeped in all directions." ”“…… You better not eat it, your esophagus is broken," Hao Ren said as he pondered the topic, "and you don't have to go to the toilet, you don't have to eat or drink for such a long time and you don't see weakness, probably you don't need to replenish energy." ”Hao Ren knew that his inference was a bit unscientific, but after knowing that this world was very likely to be false, he didn't care about it at all: maybe the data terminal caused a bug when it crossed in, so he formed such a body that did not conform to scientific common sense, as for the principle......
The world is all fake, who the cares about the principle.Nolan watched Hao Ren and the blonde girl chewing their ears mysteriously, and he didn't know what the two of them were talking about, but he still asked casually: "By the way, I haven't had time to ask, what's your name?"
”She said it to the corpse terminal, and as soon as this came out, Hao Ren and the terminal were stupid, and the latter glared at Hao Ren and whispered: "!
Hurry up and think of a name!
”Dare to love, even this product knows that the word "data terminal" is not a person's name.Hao Ren hurriedly used his brains to make up a personal name, but everyone knows his level of name, and under normal circumstances, Ge Erdan is the same as his father, not to mention this tense moment.Before he could speak, the corpse terminal quickly interrupted in the mental connection: "Don't say anything, you can't be counted on in this situation - let the machine think of it for itself." ”Nolan looked at the two of them curiously, and just when she was a little puzzled, the corpse Ji suddenly spoke: "Oh, this machine......
My name is Patien, you can just call me Pati. ”Nolan sighed and stopped asking, while Hao Ren whispered in surprise to the terminal in the mental connection: "You can, why did you suddenly think of such a name?"
”"PDA."
Hao Ren: "......
It's really simple and crude, and it's easy to understand. ”As the night deepened, it soon came time to rest.Nolan climbed into the car and took out the sleeping bag and the insulated plastic tarpaulin, and said while arranging: "Tonight, you will stay on the vigil, you go to bed first, I will guard the first post." ”Hao Ren looked at the starlight spilling in from the mouth of the cave, and waved his hand to Nolan: "You go to sleep first, me and ......
Patty walked outside. ”"At a time like this?"
Nolan stopped, "It's not wise to waste your energy, especially after nightfall in such an unfamiliar place. ”"Don't worry, I'm also a professional," Hao Ren said and had already walked to the entrance of the cave, and the corpse Ji followed him with a limp at the end, "I'll go to confirm the safety of the perimeter, nothing can happen - have you forgotten that short staff?"
”Hao Ren said, pouting at the sentry cane Nunu hanging from Nolan's waist: "I have something more powerful than this, I will explain this to you when I have the chance." ”Nolan looked at the mysterious weapon on his waist, and then remembered that Hao Ren seemed to have a lot of secrets.However, she still held back and didn't ask so much, just nodded: "Be careful." ”After finding a relatively open area outside the cave, the corpse queen finally asked, "What are you going to do?"
You don't really plan to play life and death with this machine, do you?
”"I'm going to overhaul you when I go back, you must have burned out the chip from this abnormal crossing," Hao Ren said as he looked up at the sky, "I'm going to go up there and see how much the world has been simulated." ”(To be continued.) )
