Chapter 264 The Final Chapter of the Wasteland
Fu Qinghai held the diary in his hand and stood outside the cabin.
My heart couldn't be calm for a long time.
Even a little creepy.
He thought about 10,000 motivations and reasons for reincarnations to assimilate the divine seal, but he never thought that it was the divine seal that assimilated him!
Chen Xue had told him a long time ago that reincarnators have no immunity from thinking in the face of high-dimensional power. In other words, in the face of the power of these gods and demons, reincarnators can have their minds and thoughts controlled just like the local natives.
Fu Qinghai originally thought that Chen Xinlu's character was affected by Dormammu's power, and Zhang Yuning's temper was affected by fierce ghosts and evil spirits, which would be the embodiment of this sentence.
Unexpectedly, this is not over yet.
Fu Qinghai still underestimated the fragility of the human mind.
Not only did the Divine Seal directly see the existence of the "Reincarnation World" in the memory of the reincarnator, he was also able to control the reincarnator to spend assimilation points to assimilate himself to other universes...
The diary was written very sloppily and messily, with only fragments of words intermittent. It was difficult for Fu Qinghai to deduce more information from it - for example, had the divine seal destroyed other universes?
After they came out of the Dead Space universe, the first universe they arrived in was the Resident Evil movie universe? Are there some ordinary universes in between with very low technology and magic limits?
It's scary to think about it.
This reincarnation and his society may have become a member of the army of necromorphs in the maintenance deck passage. The fragments and slurry of the corpse were washed into space along with the detergent, and Fu Qinghai could not help him. Caught and questioned.
This reincarnation person said that he relied on the reminder sound of the reincarnation world to gain a moment of clarity. Fu Qinghai believed this because he himself had a similar experience.
Thinking back to the time when he crashed into a wild alien planet, falling from an altitude of 10,000 meters, his powered armor was shattered. He was too seriously injured and the Sassian meninges activated, and his body automatically entered a state of suspended animation. As a result, he could even pass through the suspended animation state even with the sound of the reincarnation world.
Fu Qinghai recalled how he was controlled by the divine seal. At that time, he seemed to have had a nightmare from which he could not wake up. However, he regained consciousness at the moment when he almost killed Jiang Yixia, and this prevented a big disaster. wrong.
So your resistance is pretty high?
This diary did not provide any substantial help to Fu Qinghai, but it gave him a reminder - never underestimate the locals in the world of reincarnation.
In addition, I really lack the means to face mental attacks.
…
Fu Qinghai returned to the maintenance deck.
Chen Xinlu came up to meet him and asked:
"When we were cleaning the passage, we found a lot of corpses in the shape of babies. But how come there are so many babies on the ship? Even if some crew members are pregnant, there are probably too many."
Fu Qinghai shook his head and said:
"Those are not naturally conceived babies. They are cloned babies in the medical area of the Ishimura. They are used to replace organs for the crew members. Have you seen the movie "Escape from Clone Island" that sells copies? It's probably similar to that. nature."
Under the influence of the divine seal, babies will turn into necromorphs called "lurkers".
In a sense, this is also a reflection of the Ishimura's strong self-sustainability.
"Alas……"
Chen Xinlu frowned when he heard this, and then asked:
"The deck passage has been cleaned. What are you going to do with that guy?"
"Give him an antibody, open a dimensional door to the surface, and let him go away."
…
Fu Qinghai often said that the technology tree of the human empire in Warhammer 40K is very crooked, mainly because of the rigid dogma and rules of the Mechanicum. But in fact, overall, the human technology tree in Dead Space is not much better.
Although the Ishimura is just a mining ship, it is actually equipped with some weapons. Fu Qinghai found several electromagnetic coil cannons on the side of the ship. The full name is "Asteroid Defense System Cannon", or ADS cannon for short.
In Warhammer 40K, the shell of the battleship is made of adamantine. In Star Wars, the shell of the battleship is made of steel. If you encounter an ordinary meteorite, just hit it directly. Only when you encounter particularly bad cosmic weather, you need to turn on the shield system. I have never heard of it. Do battleships have to be equipped with a so-called "anti-meteorite cannon"?
With the level of firepower of the Ishimura, it would be difficult to serve as an armed merchant ship in the Warhammer 40K universe.
However, neither Warhammer 40K nor Star Wars has such efficient mining technology as planetary fragmentation technology.
In fact, this is a normal phenomenon. Science can never be measured by level-by-level brainless levels. Technology is like a tree, some with lush branches and some with sparse branches.
Although the Ishimura is just a mining ship, all warships under Dead Space EDF do not have energy shield systems like those in Warhammer 40K and Star Wars, such as void shields, deflector shields, and particle shields.
Gravity technology has made great achievements, but shield technology is completely blank.
…
Perfect humans also discovered the famous spaceship Ishimura in orbit not long ago. Due to the existence of the army of necromorphs, they had not yet had time to conduct a thorough exploration. After Fu Qinghai cleaned up the necromorphs, the five people searched for the Ishimura The in-depth search has just begun.
Through the historical records in the main console, Fu Qinghai discovered that perfect humans had never started this spacecraft at all.
Maybe there are no hacker experts in the team staying here, or maybe the Red Queen of the Umbrella Company is not here. In short, perfect humans failed to crack the Ishimura's spacecraft control system. They just occupied a cabin above and threw a Low-level members serve as surveillance eyes.
At the same time, Fu Qinghai also discovered that most of the supplies stored in the living area of the ship, including food, drinking water and medicine, had been emptied by the reincarnations of perfect humans. His expectation of obtaining supplies from the Ishimura was once again frustrated.
The Ishimura has its own planting area and hydroponic cabin. Although the area is not large, it can also grow potatoes like in "The Martian".
But who is Fu Qinghai? Can he bear this grievance?
If supplies are not enough, just grab them.
Fu Qinghai was collecting the few nuclear fuels, preparing to fill up the reactors of the Blue Shell Power Armor and the Hegemony shuttle, and then looking for trouble for the Perfect Humans again, when Chen Xinlu suddenly stopped him:
"Qingshan, come and see."
The three careful women discovered a set of PIG protective clothing that was deliberately hidden in the deep gap between the pipe wall and the ventilation shaft. The shape was much more sci-fi than the engineer PIG they were wearing.
Fu Qinghai walked over to check.
Because RIG is as popular in Dead Space as a smartphone and functions as a personal identification terminal, Fu Qinghai's first reaction when seeing this hidden RIG protective suit was that it might involve some special permissions.
But when Fu Qinghai saw the blue fin-shaped device on RIG's left arm and the long black square device on his right arm, he immediately reacted:
"Oh, this is the most advanced RIG in the game."
Fu Qinghai took out the gap in the protective clothing and explained to the three women:
"The one on the left arm is called the kinetic energy module. This is a device that uses the unified field theory that has been perfected in dead space to operate artificial gravity fields to change the motion state of objects."
When the kinetic energy module is working, a spherical force field with light refraction effect will wrap around the user's hand, and then a tubular artificial gravity field will be fired in the direction pointed by the user.
When this artificial gravity field comes into contact with the target object, the gravity of the object itself will be offset, and the object will be sucked towards the user under the action of the artificial gravity field until it hovers about thirty centimeters in front of the kinetic energy module. in mid-air.
To put it simply, it's a teleportation move that's almost identical to the gravity weapon in Half-Life.
Although it involves advanced and complex gravity control technology, in fact, whether in Half-Life or Dead Space, the initial positioning of this thing is a production tool rather than a weapon and equipment. It is just that under special circumstances in the game, Used temporarily as a weapon by the protagonists.
Its main function is to assist engineers wearing RIG to move large items.
It's very cool to use, but the gravity it can change is too small. As a weapon, it's somewhat unsightly. It's not as straightforward as a rifle.
But it is still a technology that the human empire does not have.
"The one on the right arm is called the stasis module. It has a built-in demagnetized tachyon transmitter. It is a device that emits directional 'stasis energy' to slow down the flow of time in the target space."
"Stagnation field" is a scientific concept discovered by scientists in Dead Space while studying technologies related to advanced quantum mechanics. The stasis force field can create a time dilation phenomenon in ordinary space, so that the objects it wraps experience a slower flow of time relative to the surrounding environment.
When the stasis module is working, the transmitter on the user's palm will emit a directional stasis energy, which will spread when it comes into contact with the first object on the path of travel, and cause time dilation within a certain range of space. . Therefore, the stasis module can be regarded as a "sputtering" weapon.
This is a technique for manipulating time.
Of course, the human empire has mastered the technology of stasis field, and like the Dead Space universe, it was initially used in the medical field: patients who are placed in stasis will slow down their condition, and medical staff will have More time to deal with these issues.
After Robert Guilliman's throat was cut by Fulgrim, he was put into a stasis field by his descendants. The poison from the Daemon Prince of Slaanesh was beyond the reach of the empire's existing medical methods, so stasis was used. The lag field slows down the flow of time until a way to rescue the original body can be found in the future.
The Necrons also master the technology of stasis fields, and unlike the stasis fields in the Human Empire, which are high-end technologies, stasis fields can be seen everywhere in the tomb world of the Necrons.
However, when it comes to using the stasis field as a weapon, the only known relic technology of the Human Empire is the stasis grenade. This thing, like the gravity gun, can only be found in the Dark Angel's arsenal.
In the 41K era, a certain time when the Dark Angels were hunting down the Fallen Angels, they were seen by White Scars who were fighting together nearby. White Scars was also curious about the legendary "little secrets" and wanted to know what these guys wanted to hide, so he used his own Due to the speed advantage of the motorcycle, he intended to rush forward to find out what was going on. However, the Dark Angel dropped several stasis grenades from the Dark Talon fighter plane, locking the White Scar motorcycle in time dilation, and handled the battle scene himself. He had to get clean and walk away.
Not only did it not harm friendly troops, but it also kept the secrets of its own battle group. The stasis grenade stole the show and stunned the bumpkins of Chogris.
The Emperor is really biased sometimes. Iron Man, gravity gun, stasis grenade... these relic technological weapons are all equipped to the First Legion.
But as long as Fu Qinghai understands the technical principles of the stasis module on the RIG protective suit, it won't be Dark Angel's turn to show off.
"Yeah, good stuff."
Fu Qinghai was very satisfied with this discovery, praised the three women several times, and then openly took this thing as his own.
The three women had no objections.
Kinetic energy modules and stasis modules, because of their low output power, are more focused on production equipment rather than weapons and equipment. However, the protagonists in the game can do this by standing on a circular shape called the "enhancement board" or "TK board" platform to greatly enhance the performance of the two modules on his body, but there are side effects of severe pain throughout the body.
The "reinforcement board" and "TK board" are like some kind of wireless charging equipment that enhances the output power of the two modules. It can be seen that what limits the function of these two modules is not the design itself, but the low performance of the RIG protective clothing. Energy output.
After searching the Ishimura inside and out, and finding nothing else, Fu Qinghai flew the Hegemony shuttle to the surface.
…
Fu Qinghai used the Dimension Gate to return to the Lost City, the largest ruined city. After robbing another wave of supplies from the parasite hosts with familiarity, the Hegemony shuttle flew away.
He didn't go looking for the perfect human's secret stronghold anymore. What happened at the launch site had already shown that the perfect human knew about his arrival. The other secret strongholds must have been "empty" and they would not still be waiting for Fu Qinghai to come to them.
Fu Qinghai looked through the porthole at the rough blue sea below.
At this moment, the shuttle is flying at high speed over the sea.
Under the sea, a huge black shadow is following the shuttle, looming, seemingly invisible.
Fu Qinghai deliberately slowed down and lowered his altitude.
The belly of the aircraft is slightly closer to the sea.
"Wow!"
With a loud noise, a huge sea monster dozens of meters long broke through the water in an instant, shook its jagged body vigorously, raised its bloody mouth full of tentacles and sharp teeth, and bit into the shuttle.
Fu Qinghai had already expected it, so he pulled up the nose of the plane and rushed forward with full power, avoiding the incoming zombie whale.
This is the sea.
Fu Qinghai withdrew his gaze and continued to fly forward.
Cross the sea and fly to the shore.
Just past the white sandy beach, dense and towering jungle appeared in front of us.
The green plants with arrogant claws are often hundreds of meters high. The thick leaves and thick rattans are covered with sharp undercuts. The trunks are embedded with countless chattering eyes. No need for Fu Qinghai's teasing, all the eyes Suddenly they all turned around and locked the shuttle.
It's a carbon copy of Catachan.
Fu Qinghai directly increased the power, continued to raise the altitude, and flew over the top of the jungle.
"Whoa! Whoa!"
The waving thick rattan rolled towards the shuttle, and the scarlet bud at the end opened its eight-petal mouth, screaming, sharp teeth rubbing, and giant cannonball-like pods spurting out along with thick white slurry. Large clouds of yellow-green poisonous gas exploded in mid-air in an attempt to shoot down the shuttle.
Fu Qinghai held the joystick in his hand and shook it left and right, avoiding these attacks nimbly and continuing to fly forward.
Veronica Ecosystem.
This is the jungle.
Continuing to fly to the west of the mainland, Fu Qinghai crossed the mountains and crossed the plains.
In the western continent, Fu Qinghai saw from a distance a thick gray fog that was rolling in and spreading. Amid the overwhelming fog of the virus, a translucent gray giant loomed, like the mythical Goliath giant descending into the world.
His figure was as tall and majestic as a mountain, and his form was sticky and twisted as if it was about to collapse at any moment. He raised his face in the mist, opened his mouth, and let out a silent roar.
The ultimate form of C-virus - Chaos Zombie.
This is the mainland.
Fu Qinghai glanced at it from a distance, drew an arc in the air, turned around and left.
There are endless zombie monsters in the ocean, the Veronica ecosystem in the jungle, the C-virus chaotic zombies deep in the continent... plus the red divine seal standing in the snow in the valley.
They really live together. Fu Qinghai thought to himself.
He didn't know whether the "ultimate virus" in the dream of perfect humans could be successfully born. Anyway, the earth was completely out of control at the moment.
Fu Qinghai recalled Boss Zhao in Jacob's Town, who relied on the special environment of the Glowing Sea and the special technology of radiating the universe to earn assimilation points for reincarnators. This business would not last long.
Amphibious monsters in the sea are gradually landing, walking plants in the jungle are uprooting their roots and heading north, chaotic zombies are leading the virus fog to sweep in and swallow everything... How long can a town in a mere basin survive?
"Tip: Insufficient energy, 37% remaining."
The shuttle's screen lit up red.
Fu Qing raised the nose of the plane and flew straight into space.
It's time to end.
…
Stone Village, living area, restaurant.
Five people sit around a table to eat.
The food is very simple, still the signature mushy stew and various heated cans, with a few bottles of spirits dotted among them.
"Have you used the Eye of Prophecy, Chen Xinlu?"
Fu Qinghai asked casually.
Chen Xinlu said:
"Use it. The plot line mission 'Survival' ends in about a week. My next reincarnation world is the main Marvel universe."
Fu Qinghai nodded and continued eating.
"What about you? Have you used it?"
Jiang Yixia asked Fu Qinghai curiously.
Fu Qinghai put down the tableware and shook his head:
"It's useless for me. I'll just save it for now. In the next reincarnation, I have to arrange collective actions for the community. The prophecy eye is of little significance."
Societies...
Jiang Yixia glanced at him.
In fact, Jiang Yixia really wanted Fu Qinghai to join her club, but they knew as early as the Warhammer 40K universe that Fu Qinghai had his own club, and he was the leader of the club.
Qingshan is very strong, but his club is not very strong.
This is the unanimous conclusion of the women.
However, no one would use this as an excuse to recruit others to join their club. Should they just tell Fu Qinghai: "Your club members are not good enough, come to our club. They are all high-level players here"?
That emotional intelligence is too low.
The three women present actually want Fu Qinghai to be their teammate. He is handsome, strong, smart and reliable, but they just don't know how to say it.
The dining table was a little quiet for a while.
There was only the sound of silent eating.
As Jiang Yixia ate, she couldn't help but tighten her mouth in anger.
This guy, let’s call him single-minded, doesn’t refuse the flirtation of two beauties overtly and covertly. He doesn’t seem like a gentleman. Call him a scumbag. The whole reincarnation is almost over, and there is no substance at all. action.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
…
The snow-covered northern land.
The young man with a chubby face was trudging through the snow with a test tube in his arms.
Fu Qinghai kept his promise and opened a dimensional door to let him leave, but he had not yet made up his mind whether to inject this antibody serum against the T-fear virus.
Without the tree of perfect human beings, young men don’t know where they should go and can only wait for the next reincarnation.
There was a faint voice in his heart, like some kind of intuition, pointing him towards the way forward.
He had no choice but to follow his heart.
If Fu Qinghai were here at this moment, looking down from the high sky, the direction the young man was trekking... happened to be the direction of the valley where the red seal was located.
