What It’s Like Being a Vampire

v6 Chapter 629: When the bell rang

Time enters November 2020, the lunar calendar has just started winter, but weird weather appears frequently all over the world.

In many places, there are rare high-temperature weather, which is several degrees higher than the average temperature of the same period in previous years. It is too hot to tell whether it is summer or winter.

In some places, abnormal weather such as tornadoes, super thunderstorms, and hail occurred, and various off-season and anti-regular severe weather appeared frequently. Fortunately, most of the areas where they occurred were large and sparsely populated.

But even in densely populated areas on all continents, there are various abnormalities, such as continuous high temperature and dry weather, which cause frequent fires.

Originally due to the warm winter caused by the El Niño phenomenon last year, many people this year are speculating that there may be anti-El Niño and La Niña phenomena, and a cold winter that has been rare in recent years.

But I didn't expect it to be hotter this year than last year.

Of course, there are also various opinions on the Internet, indicating that it is not yet really cold, and occasional high temperatures are normal.

However, as time went on, and until late November, more and more weird weather appeared all over the world, and densely populated cities began to be "attacked". Some cities were even directly hit by large-scale thunderstorms. The equipment is affected or damaged. Moreover, these violent and strong convective weather phenomena have not received the early warning of the meteorological department, as if the weather forecast technology that has been developed by mankind for so many years has become a failure.

But in fact, several major countries have obtained some special information through satellite remote sensing technology, knowing that the source of recent global climate abnormal changes lies in Antarctica.

Beginning in mid-October, the temperature in parts of Antarctica began to rise sharply, and glaciers melted faster. Scientific research teams and other relevant personnel in Antarctica from various countries were just about to investigate the situation to see what caused the anomaly, but received An order from the respective institutions required to evacuate immediately.

Of course, not everyone was willing to go at the beginning. Many people wanted to explore the situation first, at least to understand what caused the large-scale temperature increase in Antarctica, but a series of visions followed. And danger, but let everyone know that if you don’t leave, let alone investigating the reasons for the temperature rise, it is difficult to leave alive.

What happened in Antarctica was not only the abnormal rise in temperature, but also various anomalies. When the Antarctic scientific research personnel were withdrawn from the scientific research station, a large number of black, seemingly mineral components and plant-like Objects that can grow and exchange material and energy with the surroundings appear, like a layer of vegetation, continuously spreading across the Antarctic continent.

But the strange thing is that when they appear, the temperature in Antarctica no longer rises, but drops rapidly at the same abnormal speed, even lower than the temperature line before the temperature rise.

As the black objects occupy more and more areas, related images and photos are quickly circulated on the Internet. There are some strange thermal imaging images taken by satellites, which are used by TV programs and Internet self-media giants. explain.

So gradually, there are more and more "destroying" statements on the Internet, various gods, various legends, various reasons for the destruction, and even aliens want to launch attacks. The argument that the ancient alien beast is about to awaken is endless and dazzling.

In fact, starting from a period of time in early October when the temperature suddenly dropped abnormally across the eastern hemisphere at the same time, similar remarks appeared on the Internet.

However, because the impact of the abnormal weather at that time was relatively small and lasted for a short time, the similar "destroy" and "doomsday" statements did not cause any splashes, and soon disappeared on the Internet, without causing much attention.

Of course, in fact, in secret, Alice made some tricks to deliberately reduce the chances of these comments being searched and appearing on various social media platforms. Some people with ulterior motives were interfered with Internet devices and operating systems, so that they could It is not possible to continue to publish relevant information within a short period of time, so the spread and influence of those information can be quickly prevented.

But now, because the weather has changed too weirdly and drastically, an unexplainable situation has appeared again in Antarctica. Various kinds of information are emerging one after another, various media platforms follow up reports, and various experts come out to refute rumors and answer too much.

Seeing this information, everyone will have similar thoughts in their minds more or less. After all, there were too many movies such as "2012" and "The Day After Day" in the early years, no matter what kind of knowledge background, what kind of cognitive system, There will be more or less assumptions, guesses, fears and worries about the coming of the end times.

If Xiang Kun, before someone disseminates the Antarctic vision, the image or video information of the spreading black matter, let Alice use technical means to interfere and mislead from the data level, and prohibit these "big news" from the source. "It will be much easier to spread.

But Xiang Kun did not do so.

At this point, unless Alice directly cuts off the global network and various media, prohibits all information dissemination, or conducts large-scale and large-scale fraud, and uses forged information to guide public opinion and public attention, it is possible to bring this The global panic was suppressed.

Naturally, Xiang Kun did not do so.

Because his original operation was to directly start from the real source-the vision itself.

Don't look at all kinds of abnormal weather now, and the drastic changes in temperature make people feel that the end of the world is coming.

In fact, as early as mid-October, these changes had already occurred drastically, but at that time Xiang Kun had been working with Alice through the "super-connected matter matrix" that had been put and associated in various human settlements around the world. Reverse influences limit the abnormal changes of climate and minimize the influence.

If we can directly reduce the impact and duration of abnormal weather changes as in early October, we can naturally reduce people’s panic and attention, and then set the scope of the matter to be resolved in the South Pole. It will be much more convenient to block news. .

But in the end, Xiang Kun’s restriction failed, and the climate anomaly was destined to intensify, and the panic caused by this kind of drastic weather change was almost unavoidable. It could not be blocked by restricting the Antarctic vision alone.

So Xiang Kun changed his strategy from blocking to sparse.

...

Xiang Kun knows why the global weather has such drastic and abnormal changes.

The root of everything lies in Antarctica, or rather, in the "ultimate predator" who is about to reconsolidate onto the Antarctic continent.

Xiang Kun’s previous plan was very successful. Mr. Liang was able to meet the blood source requirements of the "ultimate predator" in a short period of time to draw him out. At the time of devouring and staged mutation, he used "dreams" to his main consciousness. Format, then analyze and establish its consciousness model, let Alice reversely destroy and affect its function of controlling specific factors in other creatures, and essentially "paralyze" it.

Originally, according to Xiang Kun and Alice's deduction, the most likely situation is:

The "Ultimate Predator" was successfully calculated by them and lost control of the specific factors in other organisms. However, it is better to live than to die. According to the past behavior of the "Ultimate Predator", it will be somewhat fearless. Struggle", but there will be no impact. It will linger until Xiang Kun's "super-connected matrix" truly spreads across every corner of the world, completely enveloping it and completely eliminating the threat.

However, after the plan was successfully implemented, there was a small probability:

In the process of being "paralyzed", the stability of the high-dimensional factors of the "ultimate predator" itself was greatly impacted. It was originally in the stage limit, which would be directly forced to a critical point and could no longer pass. "Split into zeros" and entered a state of suspended animation to avoid the ultimate disintegration, so I wanted the fish to die and the net to break, the final blow.

It may also be this state of being on the verge of disintegration, making the consciousness of the "ultimate predator" into a manic and bloodthirsty mode, rejecting the "line of life" left by Xiang Kun through the carrot, and did not choose to access the carrot. "Hyperlinked things platform" eliminates its stage boundaries, but chooses to condense itself through all "high-dimensional factors" distributed in a large number of organisms around the world.

After being calculated by Xiang Kun and Alice, the "ultimate predator" cannot activate the special factors in the bodies of other organisms to influence and control them, but the characteristics of the special factors are through the "high-dimensional factors" of the "ultimate predator" Realization, the "high-dimensional factor" is connected with consciousness, ignoring the spatial distance, which is why the connection between the "ultimate predator" and its specific factors in other organisms still exists.

When the threat of phased disintegration comes, the "ultimate predator" chooses to establish its physical existence in the Antarctic continent, one of the "vacuums" thrown into the "super-connected matrix".

Yes, Xiang Kun's method of "breaking into parts" was "paralyzed" by Xiang Kun. The "Ultimate Predator" decided to come to a wave of recklessness and directly use a comprehensive construction entity to fight, or in other words, to try to die together.

It has no way to actively control the specific factors in other organisms, but it can drive all the "high-dimensional factors" in a state of stress that is about to disintegrate and the "instinct" of "mutant organisms" through the connection of "high-dimensional factors". "Factors" return, carry out the non-drinking mutation and non-transformation stage of morphological changes, and directly establish a larger, powerful, and substantial ontological existence.

If you make a metaphor, then Xiang Kun previously let it lose the ability to control the "body", only the perception of the body, the brain can still think, and the consciousness is still clear. Now, it is to directly stimulate one's own "passive ability", abandon the original body, and then directly let the brain "grow" hands, feet or other limbs to create a new entity.

In fact, Xiang Kun does nothing. The "ultimate predator" will disintegrate and dissipate soon after the entity is condensed. It can stimulate the instinct of high-dimensional factors and let them help it reconsolidate the entity. It is because of it. Choose to perish.

It's like a company decided to close its doors and go bankrupt. After the news is released, the construction team outside will naturally rush back to settle the pay and then disband.

The purpose of gathering is to completely disperse.

But the problem is that the process of "condensing" the entity itself is already a catastrophe for the entire world.

Not only will there be massive energy exchanges, but the high-dimensional factors affect the entire world and countless biological communities.

It's like a huge mountain of books made up of huge volumes of books, layered on top of each other, neatly arranged, and very stable.

There is a bookmark in each book, and if one or several, or even hundreds of bookmarks are extracted individually, the effect is not significant. But if the bookmarks in all the books are drawn out together through the thin connecting lines at the same time, even if the entire mountain of books does not collapse, it will be affected a lot. Distortion, skewing, and even partial dislocation and scattering may be possible.

"Ultimate Predator" is now pulling out the bookmarks of all the books, and at the same time.

And Xiang Kun’s "super-connected matter matrix" and "super-sensing object system" are part of the bookends or shelves in Shushan, which can be moved to correct the effect of bookmark twitching, so that Shushan can be removed when all bookmarks are drawn. , As much as possible to maintain the original state.

Therefore, it is not the "ultimate predator" or Xiang Kun can now use high-dimensional factors to perturb global climate change and control the weather in every part of the world. This huge natural system, whether Xiang Kun or the "ultimate predator" ", there is still no way to precisely control and influence. All of these are the "side effects" of the "Ultimate Predator" condensing the ontology, and Xiang Kun is just a squeeze.

It's a pity that the chain reaction caused by bookmarks is too great, but the bookends and shelves that Xiang Kun arranged are not enough, and the ability to correct errors is insufficient, so when the influence gets bigger, he can only give up.

After Xiang Kun gave up the reverse influence and corrected the weather, as the "ultimate predator" gathers in the Antarctic, various apocalyptic weather phenomena will appear frequently all over the world, and even more weird. It happened.

This process can be scary, but according to Xiang Kun and Alice's deduction based on the changes in the supersensing information, the impact can still be recovered. What's more, he has already let people around the world experience the "mild" abnormal weather through reverse influence before. With warning and preparation, the loss will be smaller.

The most important thing is what to do after the "ultimate predator" body is completely formed.

Although it is a low-probability situation, Xiang Kun and Alice have a plan to deal with when formulating a plan to deal with the "ultimate predator".

For Xiang Kun, the most conservative and safest way to deal with it is to wait for the "ultimate predator" to collapse and perish on its own-after it presents the entity in this way, it will disintegrate in a very short time, with high dimensional factors. Dissipate, dust returns to dust, soil returns to soil.

But the problem is that after the "ultimate predator" is fully condensed and formed, it will inevitably not be willing to dissipate like this, and will definitely do something before dissipating, whether it is further intruding into the ocean, trying to reach other continents, or causing huge damage before it dies. , Or directly through its influence in Antarctica, disturbing the global climate, melting glaciers, and raising the sea will bring devastating disasters.

In this case, Xiang Kun really can’t take care of himself. Waiting for the "Ultimate Predator" to collapse, he must come to the rescue. Before the "Ultimate Predator" has just gathered and formed without causing huge damage or devastating disaster, It is completely killed.

In mid-October, when the "Ultimate Predator" had just started to condense its body, he had a foreboding of this situation, so when he met Lao He in Tongshi Town, he told him about this meeting. There are "big scenes of global attention".

With the current level of human technology, it is still impossible to deal with the "Ultimate Predator". Even if a few big powers take action together, throwing a nuclear bomb at the Antarctic without regard to the consequences can explode the huge object of the "Ultimate Predator". Ash, but there is no way to really eliminate it, and soon it will continue to condense, and it may even form corresponding material characteristics due to nuclear bombs or other thermal weapons, which is even more harmful.

It is not that human weapons are not powerful enough or lethal, but that they are in the wrong direction.

It's like hitting water with a fist, using a knife to cut the water, or hitting the water with a hammer. No matter how hard you use it, it won't work. The water will be splashed, but it doesn't hurt in essence.

After all, it is that human society has too little understanding of the existence of the "ultimate predator" and the characteristics of high-dimensional factors. Even the current Mr. Liang does not have any effective method to deal with the "ultimate predator".

In this world, the only thing that can stop the "ultimate predator" is still Xiang Kun.

For Xiang Kun, the real difficulty is not to eliminate the "ultimate predator" or to win the Antarctic battle, but to completely eliminate the "ultimate predator" and let his consciousness completely dissipate, how to control and take over it. A huge number of high-dimensional factors.

According to the normal transformation stage, the "ultimate predator" is a super-giant glacier on the sea. Xiang Kun is a small boat, not counting underwater. The volume of the glacier exposed on water is countless times larger than that of a small boat. . Although small boats can easily blast the glacier, the difference in size is huge.

Not to mention Xiang Kun, even Mr. Liang, whose stage transformation level has been advancing by leaps and bounds in the past few months, meets the blood source requirements of the "ultimate predator", but has not reached the level of swallowing the "ultimate predator". The gap between is too big.

If you compare the high-dimensional factor to construction team workers, Xiang Kun’s construction team has only 20 people, with various high-tech equipment, automated management and operation, and AI assistance. He can do the work of several traditional large construction teams and continue We are developing new technologies and applying new equipment.

But now, he is suddenly about to reorganize a construction team of tens of thousands of people, and let his own workers train and take over. It is hard to imagine how difficult it is for 20 people to tens of thousands. If it is team-to-team, his construction team of more than 20 people has enough equipment, whether it is a literary or a military fight, there are many ways to win. But it is much more difficult to integrate the other's skilled workers into the team.

This is why for Xiang Kun, the best way to deal with the "ultimate predator" is to let it disintegrate by itself.

As for the super-massive high-dimensional factors it has accumulated, it dissipates when it dissipates. For Xiang Kun, there is no question of not being wasted.

His "construction team" has long been different from other "mutant creatures". It no longer depends on piles of heads and piles of people to increase productivity, and the dimensions of development are no longer the same.

And if Xiang Kun deals with the "ultimate predator" and kills it with his own hands, then according to the characteristics of the high-dimensional factor, he will definitely belong to him, merge with his consciousness and his original high-dimensional factor, and have a connection. This is inevitable.

Although a decision has been made to eliminate the "ultimate predator", Xiang Kun can only wait now.

When it is fully formed, the regression characteristics of the high-dimensional factors will be fully utilized.

It's not that he talked about "wu ethics" to Kun Tai and was unwilling to interrupt the process of forming the "ultimate predator", but that the process could not be interrupted at all. This is the self-characteristic of the high-dimensional factor.

At this time, no matter what he does or how to toss the "Ultimate Predator" in the part where Antarctica has been born, it will not affect its final formation, but simply exposes himself and attracts unnecessary attention.

...

In mid-December, various weather anomalies appeared more violently and frequently, and the huge black monsters in Antarctica have slowly taken shape. I can’t see what they are, but judging from its movements, it seems to be a conscious life form. Aroused greater panic.

All continents, countries, and regions around the world have been attacked by abnormal weather, whether it is in the wild or densely populated city, whether it is land or sea, mountains or plains, there are no exceptions.

Super thunderstorms, hailstorms, and heavy rain are commonplace, and people slowly get used to them in fear.

Twist the waist city.

Ye Zijun and her shooting assistant, Xiao Ding, were walking on the street, shooting the material for the production of the video program.

The two of them were frightened because of their special experience in Australia, and they stayed for a long time because they cooperated with the Australian police investigation. Fortunately, with the help of some friends, it proved that the boy's death had nothing to do with them. They were the victims and were able to return to China smoothly.

In fact, the two of them also discovered that Australian officials did not seem to want to investigate the things in the abandoned underground passage in depth, and kept secret of the boy's real cause of death.

Originally, after this incident, the two of them wanted to take a break in the country, cut the shot material, and complete the first half of the post-production.

However, at the beginning of October, the temperature of the entire eastern hemisphere experienced a short-term abnormal drop at the same time. In mid-October, various abnormal weather phenomena occurred around the world, and Western media began to appear various violent talks against China.

There are too many cars in China that emit too much exhaust gas, too many factories and too much pollution, and the need to be responsible for the abnormal weather around the world, completely ignoring the facts and evidence, directly double the label, and open your mouth. There is even a violent argument that "in order to protect the earth, the Chinese should eat less meat".

Ye Zijun and Xiao Ding are angry, so they thought of a topic, they plan to shoot some material on the spot, make a video program, fan their faces with Western logic ~lightnovelpub.net~this topic is reported The media platform that Zhao Feng linked to them was immediately approved, and then the funding for the interview was approved, and they set off across the Pacific Ocean.

But what I didn't expect is that not long after they arrived in a foreign country, the Antarctic monster was discovered, and then all the media and all the people's attention was on it.

And because of various unpredictable bad weather, especially super thunderstorms and lightning storms raging on the sea, most transoceanic flights were stopped, and the two of them were temporarily trapped and twisted.

However, this has also allowed them to record various video materials during this special period, and they have almost become expatriate reporters on that media platform.

Today, they still go to the streets to take videos routinely, and they contacted a few friends of foreign students who are twisting their waists, and they are preparing to do a program to talk about everyone's different psychology and living conditions in this situation.

It was close to Christmas, and the streets should be very lively and crowded, but the weird and fierce and abnormal weather made everyone stay outside as little as possible, and there were even fewer cars.

After shooting a piece of street scene material, Ye Zijun and Xiaoding packed up the shooting equipment and prepared to transfer their positions. When they headed to the agreed coffee shop, a crisp bell suddenly rang in the sky.

Then there was another sound.

There was another sound.

Everyone was stunned, looking up at the sky, and the sky with the sun was still visible just now, but it was already a cloud at this time. People have become accustomed to this weird weather change during this period, but the sound of the bell is frightening.

The bell still kept ringing at a fixed rhythm, as if it came directly from the air and from the dark clouds, spreading to everyone's location indiscriminately, magnificent and majestic, inexplicably giving people a sense of urgency. Kind of fear of being judged.
