I played the world alone

Chapter 535 Yes, I am the Terminator

On the empty streets, huge screens on the buildings are playing advertisements for the latest high-tech home robots, allowing users to say goodbye to the troubles of housework and enjoy a wonderful leisure life.

The sky rail train speeds past overhead, as if it has wings. There are no jets, and it just goes straight and smoothly to the next station.

The doors of the shops on the street are open, and there are dedicated electronic shopping guides who will greet customers as warmly as God. Of course, if customers just want to make their own choices, they will leave wisely.

Although in this era, online shopping has achieved the amazing efficiency of getting your order home within two hours, physical shopping has become very popular here.

Including various swimming and fitness, travel and shopping, and of course various love and marriage projects

This can be seen from the leaflets scattered around and all kinds of spiritually polluting advertisements.

Perhaps only in this way can people feel that they are alive, rather than just a mindless puppet under the nipple music.

Perhaps if nothing happens, the earth may look like this in the future.

It's just that this huge city is almost empty at the moment. Only Lu Chen is walking leisurely on the streets, observing every bit of human life in this world through various perhaps inconspicuous details.

Lu Chen looked around to make sure there were no zombies here.

But instead of living in those buildings outside, a small basement was also specially opened.

A loud noise was heard, and the people inside were so frightened that they screamed and ran away, thinking that a bomb had exploded.

"who are you?"

But while searching, he unexpectedly discovered that there were still survivors here!

"Because we are the official personnel of this city and the only normal humans left."

Because it is very hidden, it is almost as difficult to find a small cockroach in such a big city as in a house with a yard of several hundred square meters.

However, the people inside immediately denied it without hesitation: "It's impossible!"

When he knocked on the long-closed door to the basement, his spiritual consciousness could see that the people inside were instantly panicked. Some picked up weapons, some clasped their hands in prayer, and some He was crying silently.

"Me? I'm an official, here to rescue you." Lu Chen said casually.

He casually reached out and slapped the door.

They were able to see the scene outside the door through the camera, so when they saw Lu Chen, a stranger, they were more alert and confused.

Seeing that the people inside were more suspicious of him and even whispered that they must not open the door to let him in, he simply stopped acting.

It is also worth mentioning that the people here are a mixture of various skin colors. At the same time, the official language is English, and Chinese is the second largest language. It makes people wonder whether there have been Westerners who have traveled through time.

But the most important thing is to find traces of fatal memes and methods of avoiding death from these details, so as to avoid dying unprepared like last time.

"why?"

The speaker was a girl with brown hair and some freckles on her face. Her voice was trembling slightly when she spoke.

"boom!"

The relationship is when Li Gui meets Li Kui.

There's something wrong with this reaction.

If it weren't for the fact that the intensity of his consciousness was not what it used to be, and he also set aside time to conduct a thorough search, it would be really difficult to discover the existence of these guys.

Only the girl closest to the door looked at the door in shock.

I saw that the alloy door, which was said to be able to withstand missiles and was extremely thick and hard, had a hole in the middle that could allow one person to pass through!
The steel at the breach looked as if it had been torn open, and had even been twisted and deformed, with a strange drawing effect.

But the man outside the door slowly and calmly retracted his hand and walked in through the hole in a calm and leisurely manner. Even the clothes on his body showed no signs of damage.

It was as easy and comfortable as just tearing up a piece of paper.

The woman who saw this scene with her own eyes was stunned and couldn't say a word even after pointing at him for a long time.

After a long while, he asked tremblingly: "You... are you the kind of Terminator in the movie?"

Well, now it’s certain that a modern person must have traveled through time, or even been a movie fan, and remade that classic movie.

At the same time, it can be judged from this sentence that at least the technology in this world does not exceed reality too much, and there are no terrifying robot warriors or the like.

But this made it easier for him to explain.

"You can understand that I am a being similar to the Terminator. My power is very powerful, far beyond your imagination. I am here to investigate the reason why so many people have died. Please cooperate with me..."

Unexpectedly, the other party actually believed this casual excuse. It seems that the predecessors planted trees for the next generation to enjoy the shade. The influence of that movie cannot be underestimated.

Without even needing to introduce him, this excited lady had already actively promoted his "identity" to everyone in the basement, as if the savior had arrived.

I don’t know what adaptation Mr. Time Traveler made in the movie to make people here so superstitious.

But it does make it easier for him to move.

Although some people still don't believe his identity, after all, no one thinks that the things in the movie will appear in reality. Instead, they wonder if this lady betrayed them and destroyed the door by cooperating inside and outside.

"You actually doubt me?! You guys should go and see what the gate looks like! Is that something I can do?" The lady shouted that she was wronged and was very angry at the same time.

Lu Chen didn't hesitate, and directly performed a reverse "magic stick" or "science stick" in front of them, using magic to pretend to be high-tech!

Such as the levitation of anti-magnetic fields, the infinite strength that only robots can achieve, or the invulnerability effect of simulated skin, or even the photographic memory that can be written into memory...

After he performed various "miracles" that were beyond the power of human beings, the group of people were immediately amazed, completely believing it all, and turned to look at him with extremely fanatical eyes.

Several people who were suspected of being scientists even looked at him like hungry wolves looking at fat meat, wishing to take him apart and study him fiercely!
It's a pity that Lu Chen didn't intend to give them more opportunities to interact with each other. Faced with some people's "snatching" actions, he kindly expressed that he didn't mind teaching them a lesson, such as letting them experience the first-person perspective of falling objects from high altitude. Just stop talking.

"But our world shouldn't be able to build such a highly simulated and powerful robot. Where did you come from?" "Is it true that there are really crazy genius doctors like those in the movies who are tinkering with these technologies? ?”

After all, just like what is shown in those advertisements outside, although the current robot technology in this world is indeed very good, it has already achieved basic intelligence.

Just like a machine connected to chatgpt5, it can understand the owner's requirements and think independently and use various methods to complete it.

But it still can't be done to this extent.

Even this generation may not see hope in their lifetime.

Not to mention that this terrible material science is a bit too advanced for them.

"You can understand that I come from another parallel world." Lu Chen continued to fool around. He could make up a lot of excuses like this, "According to quantum mechanics..."

Although this group of people are a little confused and half-believing, after all, they cannot prove it, and they have no other choice but to believe it.

Do not believe?
They didn't want to experience what sounded like an extremely bad punishment.

"So are you really here to investigate the origins of these memes and help us take care of them?"

"Yes, so I hope you can all cooperate with my actions." Facing the expectant looks of these people, Lu Chen nodded.

Having said that, the information at the hands of this group of people was unexpectedly complete, saving him the effort of traveling to many places outside.

"Memes were actually not dangerous when we first discovered their patterns, and were even meaningful for our research and study."

"It's like a piece of information, a few words, a painting, a joke, or a film or television clip."

"They themselves are a tool for the spread of culture between people without any genetic factors. In order to study it, we have even established a special subject in schools."

"It should have been a good thing, but until one day, we suddenly received a notice from the police asking us to help investigate a strange case."

"In the case, a single man who lived alone died at home. This is certainly not unusual, but the police found a strange painting suspected to have been drawn by himself on the floor where his body lay."

"When he died, he held the painting tightly under his belly, as if he wanted to prevent anyone else from seeing it."

"The police suspected that the painting might be related to the cause of his death or his last words, so they decided to put it away and hand it over to his family members who arrived from other places."

"But that's when something strange happened."

"People began to die in the police station. And the deaths were all the police officers who were handling the case at the scene. The cause of death was almost exactly the same as that of the man living alone. The heart suddenly stopped beating, and then the brain died."

"Panic began to spread and a rumor began to circulate that the painting was actually a curse that would kill anyone who looked at it."

"We are all scientific people and naturally we will not believe in superstitious things. Therefore, in order to suppress these rumors, the police invited experts and scholars, including myself and several colleagues, to conduct research and dispel the rumors."

At this moment, the middle-aged man wearing glasses who spoke restrainedly adjusted his glasses that had slipped on the bridge of his nose, and wiped the sweat that was leaking from his forehead with a handkerchief, his voice was trembling vaguely.

It seems that he is still afraid of what happened at that time.

"Because I still have to give lectures to the students, I delayed a day a little and let my colleagues who couldn't wait to go there first."

"I only heard that the police station held a special press conference at that time, stating that they would investigate the causes of these recent deaths and not let the murderers go unpunished. At that time, they were also photographed by many reporters and media, showing the picture of the victim. Cursed Painting."

"However, when I rushed there the next day, the disaster had spread uncontrollably."

"Countless people started dying, all from the same cause."

"They did not continue to stand firm and immediately ordered the paper to be destroyed, including all the film and television materials and remaining files that recorded the painting at that time!"

"Of course, there are people who saw this painting and survived. But the method is to blind their eyes immediately, otherwise there will be no exception."

"And this..." He took a deep breath and whispered, "This is just the first spread of fatal memes, and the death toll has already reached tens of thousands."

Lu Chen nodded slightly.

He wouldn't be brave enough to test the lethality of this thing.

Everything that happened yesterday has well proved that no matter how powerful your cultivation is, it will be ineffective in the face of the law of cause and effect.

The other party continued to tell.

What follows is that the second case will cause acute asthma when hearing a melody, and the third case will lose all language skills and even become an idiot after seeing a specific combination of words...

Even the painting that destroyed the entire city this time!
They obviously look so ordinary and inconspicuous in everyone's eyes, as if they are things that can be seen everywhere, but they are just a little messy, like a child's prank.

But it seems to have some kind of magic power that can directly guide the human body to change accordingly.

In the past, there were at most only studies. For example, listening to soothing light music helps sleep and physical and mental health, or some very magical memes were spread because they found it interesting...

To a certain extent, they are really like a devil's curse to humans.

As more and more similar memes appear, officials are increasingly concerned and trying to discover their origins.

But no one knows how these things appeared, or everyone who knows is dead.

Some people once wondered whether someone was secretly deliberately creating these things and then intending to destroy the entire world.

But if the creator himself dies, what is the meaning of creation? How did it spread?
"So we suspect that these poison-like memes also have corresponding antidotes." The speaker nodded confidently, "Let's call them anti-memes for the time being."

"It's like a very funny joke. If someone explains it in advance, clearly explains all the funny points, and deliberately emphasizes how funny it is to induce you to laugh, then maybe you won't laugh. ”

"We have recently been conducting targeted research on this aspect, and we have already achieved some results..."

"As long as you look at the antidote first and then look at the corresponding lethal meme, you will have a pretty good relief effect. At most, you will only feel uncomfortable but will not die."
