Yang Yu was ready to shoot the moment he saw Wu Ming, but just as he raised his hand to aim the revolver at the opponent, his hand was pressed down by Alex who rushed into the room.
"Back off, take off the alert." The old hunter stopped Yang Yu and Tu Dou who were ready to go, with what he thought was a friendly and kind smile on his face: "It seems like you got there one step ahead of me again, brother."
People who don't know think you are planning some conspiracy when they see your smile... Wu Ming's heart trembled subconsciously when he saw Alex's smile, but he quickly adjusted his mood and gently placed his laptop on it. On the table: "She is the source of this incident."
"She?" Alex frowned slightly and turned to the laptop on the table. "You mean this is an activated, self-aware... abnormal object?"
The translation device conveyed what Wu Ming wanted to express to Alex very well, but Tu Dou and Yang Yu, who were confused, felt a little confused and surprised.
On the one hand, he was puzzled by the fact that the person in front of him was obviously not a hunter and could accurately convey his thoughts and ideas through the hunter's dream. Why were the two parties able to communicate normally despite speaking different languages like chickens and ducks speaking to each other.
On the other hand, I was surprised that Alex could read so much information from a short sentence, even down to gender.
Wu Ming nodded: "Yes, when I arrived, she was preparing to jump into the online world from this terminal, and she was almost successful, but in the end she gave up this behavior and unblocked the information spread through the Internet. The extraordinary influence returned to the terminal. After I blocked it from the physical level and the extraordinary level, she began..."
Before Wu Ming could finish what he said, a Google girl's synthesized voice, although there was no emotional ups and downs, could feel his joy and joy from the words: "Hi~ Hello! I'm [—— ], Eh...? Eh!? Why can't you say my name?"
"No, no, no dialogue between people can be established without a name. Then you can call me the Crimson King~ But I prefer you to call me Crimson or Crimson Queen~"
Wu Ming was not annoyed because his words were interrupted. He spread his hands to several people to indicate that this was what he wanted to express.
"Uncle, are you also Big Brother's friend? I'm glad to see you!"
"Speaking of which, it's about 38 degrees today. Even Scarlet has to run the cooling fan at full capacity in this weather to keep the core from overheating. But the three uncles are wearing long-sleeved coats. Don't they feel hot?"
"Hong Kong has heard that some people wear very little clothing in the winter to show off their grace. Uncles really work hard for their grace!"
"But no girls will like you if you wear this in summer~ I might as well think you are sick~"
"God damn uncle! I'm only twenty years old this year." Tu Dou was so embarrassed by the Crimson Queen's barrage of words that he almost threw away the rune chopsticks in his hand, "And our hunter's coat They are all engraved with constant temperature runes! They are good things that can protect against impact and maintain a constant body temperature!"
Seeing that the situation was under control to a certain extent, Yang Yu slowly pulled the hammer back, but he did not relax and rashly released the Blood Fighting Technique: "Why do you speak... uh, so fast?"
The laptop emitted a Google girl's synthesized voice almost at the same time as Yang Yu asked.
"Because Crimson's thinking speed is very fast~"
"How fast is it specifically? Rong Feihong wants to give you an analogy~"
"If I really want to use a metaphor...do you know bullet time? Yes, it's the one used by Neo, the savior in The Matrix! The whole world has slowed down, but only your own time is normal."
"Crimson has probably always been in this state."
"While I'm waiting for you to think and respond, it feels like a day or two to Scarlet's time perspective."
"But it doesn't matter. The ability to predict the future is only valid for Crimson, so I can communicate with you without any errors~"
Watching the Crimson Queen chatter a lot, until Ma Lingshu outside waited too long to release the Blood Fighting Technique and walked into the bedroom, Wu Ming finally found a chance to interject: "As you can see, if not Google Girl's speaking speed limit, it is really possible for her to say seventeen sentences in two seconds. In fact, before you guys came, she did indeed type seventeen messages in two seconds when communicating with me through text, almost There was no room to interject.”
Alex patted Wu Ming on the shoulder with some sympathy, making the latter shake: "This is really... thank you for your hard work, brother."
Tu Dou and Yang Yu, who had been watching from the side, also nodded repeatedly, especially the former. He felt that if there was a conflict with this abnormal object, he might not even be able to scold the other party with his thinking speed...
Realizing through her prophecy ability that Wu Ming had not finished speaking yet, the Crimson Queen very obediently did not interrupt again this time.
"Let's get down to business, about this extraordinary incident..." Wu Ming glanced at the quiet Crimson Queen and said with great certainty: "Although the Crimson Queen has been isolated from the physical and extraordinary levels, she has currently disconnected from the Internet. , and there is no possibility of reconnection in a short period of time, but I suspect this incident is not over yet..."
Looking at Alex who was thoughtful and the other three new generation hunters who were not in the state at all, Wu Ming spoke slowly.
"I suspect there are other psykers behind this incident."
…………
Yandu, Century Department Store.
As the Crimson King's influence gradually fades, the pedestrians who were deprived of consciousness gradually 'wake up'.
With their limited senses, they did not realize that their time and consciousness had been quietly stolen by some force. When the short-term trance brought about by the return of consciousness subsided, these ordinary people would only be confused for a while at most. Just continue with their normal, peaceful lives.
Compared with the confusion in the hearts of ordinary people, Elizabeth had more doubts in her heart. She did not remember what happened at the end of the battle. She only remembered that her consciousness was taken away after the Crimson King let out a scream.
When she and other personalities woke up again, the pollution in the electronic sea had quietly disappeared, just like the Crimson King had never eroded this place.
In order to avoid suspicion, Elizabeth, who returned from the sea of electronics, did not stay longer in the clothing store. After buying two sets of clothes that she had been looking forward to for a long time, she hurriedly left the clothing store with Siegfried and found a coffee shop with a nice environment. She summoned the detective according to the method Wu Ming taught her, and prepared to contact her elder brother to find out what was going on.
…………
Yandu, a wilderness on the outskirts far away from the city.
Compared to the people who had their consciousness taken away by the Crimson King under normal circumstances, the people on this bus were obviously much unlucky.
Amidst the chaotic screams filled with fear, Zhao Chensi felt uncontrollable trembling and...excitement in his heart.
He caught Wanqi who woke up in a daze, and his words were full of metamorphic joy: "Wanqi! Did you see it! This is the real supernatural power!"
