Chapter 28 The Identity of the Bartender
After so many years, the base has never given up on opening the road to the outside, but it has always failed.
Not only that, Xiao Ye also learned from these books that as time went by, Ziyue appeared more and more frequently, and with it was the expansion of Ziyue Forest.
After so many years, the peripheral space for human survival in the base has been greatly compressed by the Ziyue Forest, and ordinary people do not dare to enter and exit the base at will.
There are many books on the bookshelf. The more Xiao Ye reads, the more he understands the world and learns many secret things.
Time passed quickly. Xiao Ye was immersed in a sea of books. Ten hours passed before he knew it. Night was not far away.
There are less than two hours left until the final time to build the second template.
"You are not from this world, right?"
At this moment, the bartender's voice suddenly came down from upstairs.
Xiao Ye's body stiffened for a moment, and he raised his head to look at the bartender, thinking of countermeasures in his mind quickly.
The bartender leaned against the stairs, holding a glass of wine in his hand, and took a casual sip. After swallowing it, he slowly said: "Don't rush to explain how many people there are in this base and what their identities are. No one is better than me." More clearly, since I have exposed your identity, I naturally have my reasons."
He walked down, sat next to Xiao Ye, and handed the wine glass to Xiao Ye: "Come and try it, this is a delicacy that you can't taste in this world."
Xiao Ye shook his head. He didn't like drinking. This kind of thing can easily paralyze human nerves and make humans do things beyond reason.
"What a pity." The bartender glanced at Xiao Ye regretfully, drank all the wine in the glass, and then said: "Are you curious how I know your identity?"
Xiao Ye nodded. The identity forged by the system was flawless and had no flaws. Logically speaking, no one could see through it.
"That's right, your forged identity is so perfect that no one else would be able to detect it." The bartender sighed, and then said, "If I hadn't known everyone in the base, I wouldn't have discovered that your identity was fake."
"This is impossible." Xiao Ye shook his head and denied: "There are so many people in the base, how can you know everyone? No one can do this."
"It's true that humans can't do it, but what if that person is not a "human"?" The bartender looked at Xiao Ye with a half-smile.
not human?
"You said you are not human, could it be that you are from another species?" Xiao Ye was startled and looked at the bartender in confusion.
"Yes, as you think, I am indeed not a pure human being!"
"When the base suffered a devastating disaster, in order to ensure the continuation of the base, I integrated my consciousness into the central system of the base. After the base survived the disaster, I used simulation materials to create a human model for me. The body is used to maintain the operation of the base."
disaster?
Xiao Ye recalled the records in the book. Hundreds of years ago, the base did suffer a disaster that almost destroyed the entire base. But that was hundreds of years ago. If what the bartender said was true, then he Hasn't he lived for hundreds of years?
The bartender fell into deep thought and sighed after a long time: "Because of the integration with the central system, on the other hand, I almost have a long life. As long as the central system is not destroyed, I will not die."
"But it is also a kind of sadness. For hundreds of years, no one can know my identity, and no one knows my past. Loneliness will always be with me. Human life is too short. Everyone I know Stepping into the dust, I spent the next hundred years alone."
Xiao Ye was silent for a moment. He knew the feeling of loneliness very well. He had experienced it when he was a child.
"Actually, the first time I saw you, I knew you were not from this world."
What the bartender said surprised Xiao Ye.
"Why?"
The bartender smiled and said: "Because of the integration with the central system, I know everything about this base. I have seen all the faces in the base, old and young, male and female, but I have never seen you. Yes. Although I don’t know how you managed to forge your identity in my database, your unfamiliar face cannot fool me."
"In that case, why didn't you expose me immediately?" Xiao Ye asked with a frown.
"Do you know how civilization in this world came about?" The bartender did not answer Xiao Ye's question immediately. Instead, he asked an unrelated question.
"I don't know." Xiao Ye shook his head. He had also thought about this problem, but there was no relevant record in these books.
"The human civilization in this world comes from your world."
The bartender said something that Xiao Ye couldn't believe.
"Impossible." Xiao Ye denied the bartender's words.
He clearly remembered that the system said that the Lost Land was an evil existence that wandered the river of time, looking for gifted creatures, capturing them, and making them its vassals.
Judging from his experience during this period, this place is indeed very strange, but if it is said that the human civilization here comes from his own world, Xiao Ye does not believe it at all.
"I also made a guess. I don't know whether it's right or not." The bartender smiled and continued: "Whether it is right or not, it is actually not important to the humans in this world. Survival is their most important issue. .”
"Why are you so sure that I am not from this world and not from other places in this world?" Xiao Ye asked the doubt in his heart.
"Humans in this world are injected with a special substance into their bodies from birth to resist the radiation of the Purple Moon in this world. I have tested it and found that there is no such special substance in your body." The bartender explained. .
"What test, why don't I know about it?" Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment. He had indeed not done any test, except for the initial strength test.
"Some tests do not require your presence." The bartender pointed to Xiao Ye's hair and said, "Sometimes, a hair or even a drop of blood can test many things."
Xiao Ye suddenly realized that it was really easy to get a piece of his hair quietly using the bartender's method.
