The endless sea is calmer than before, and the originally blue and clear water has become thicker. Perhaps this is why the waves are not moving. What kind of impurities or life exists in the viscous water can no longer be seen. In people's minds, in the sea of ??common sense, those familiar lives have long since disappeared. Before the island hospital was completely alienated, all that was left were ugly, dirty, and daunting creatures. It was even difficult for people to call them "biology". However, at this moment, even those deformed and ugly things, like those visitors from hell in people's imagination, just like those depicted in people's imaginative works, make people feel resisted from the bottom of their hearts, and they can't help but feel " The existence of "this world is over" has also disappeared.
Only a light yellow color remains, and the density is higher than the seawater in common sense, but lower than the seawater when the deformed and ugly monster existed. The water between the two is far from clear, but the consistent light yellow color you see is equally daunting. Because when standing on the edge of the island and looking at the sea, it is impossible to imagine that there are other things in it: animals, plants, inorganic matter, organic matter, etc. The things that once made people think that the sea is rich in products are now All seems to have disappeared.
There is only light yellow, pure light yellow. Under the calm sea, there are turbulent undercurrents, pushing the light yellow to spread to the junction of sea and sky. Such a pure scene, as long as you see it, will definitely make people feel scared. You only wonder if you will melt into it and become one with this pale yellow once you come into contact with it. And the answer is yes.
The pale yellow ocean, or rather the ocean of ll, cannot tolerate any foreign matter. Even so, the island itself still exists, because the island, together with the hospital and natural scenery above, have all been alienated into a form that can make people intuitively feel, "It turns out that only by becoming like this can we not merge into this sea." "It is indeed difficult to describe specifically what it looks like, and language will become impoverished in front of such a scene. The alienated island is not monotonous. It still has many characteristics. However, these characteristics are too complex and it is difficult to find suitable words to describe it. It floats in the light yellow sea, but it makes people feel that this piece of light yellow The sea flows from its interior.
The island is like an abnormal core. It is precisely because of the existence of this core that everything around it becomes so abnormal. It is the main body that erodes the original scenery.
Compared with the original, the outline of every thing on the island has become more complex and more refined, as if the edges and corners have been filled with flesh and blood, losing the original artificially developed coldness and being full of a slimy feeling. Even those things with a hard texture and neat structure have all lost their hardness, neatness and structure that can be appreciated. No matter which angle you look at it, everything on the island is soft, as if it has been cut many times, and presents a complex number of faces. One part has become pitted, and another part seems to have countless tumors.
Whether it is the whole or the details, it is definitely not acceptable to ordinary people's aesthetics, and it will naturally make people feel repelled. When they are not sure what it is, they feel that it is definitely not something on this planet, maybe it comes from It's from aliens, or even from an imaginary different dimension, something that shouldn't exist in this world. One look at it is enough to put it in a bad light.
If we use human language, it would probably be: this thing is born to be a bad guy. Just like a monster with heinous crimes only appears at the end of the story. Only by defeating it can humans be saved. If we let it go, the world will end.
On the surface of the island, all objects with a height of more than ten meters, whether organic or inorganic, whether plants or buildings, now appear to be like dormant tentacles, soft and curled, as if they will become more active as long as they are restored to activity and opened. Longer, bigger. When you imagine this appearance, you will feel that the entire island is no longer an island, but some kind of primitive low-level life covered with flagella. It seems that it was too huge and dormant in the years, so it was paved with sand and stones, and the island was formed over time. Now the shell or seal given to it by nature and the sea has been unlocked. So, it returned to its original appearance.
This thing that is so abnormal that it does not resemble anything from this world is the true face of the "Island Hospital".
Yes, anyone trying to describe this thing in words would have to use so many words. And even if so many words are used, it is still difficult for people to outline its complete outline in the mind just from the description of the words. This is unrealistic. Human language, human brain, and human cognition , is not enough to support this thing.
Among the countless "flagella" or "tentacles"-like towering things, there is one like this that is more powerful than the others.It is even more obvious that its eye-catching presence comes from its height, its thickness, its color and texture. If there are still people alive on the island who can carefully examine its outline from a distance, they may notice it. , its prototype is the strange tower in Gudao Hospital.
The hospital has never announced the specific functions of this tower to everyone. In many people's minds, this unique tower is like a forbidden place, and they always imagine that some inhumane experiments are always carried out inside, or maybe There are many secrets buried. Anyone who is interested in hospitals will not be able to help but focus on this tall tower when they see the buildings in the hospital. However, the specific purpose of this tower and what is inside it have remained a secret so far: some may know part of it, but few know all of it. Some people may think that as the top leader of the hospital, Dr. Ander and his team must know the secrets, right? Perhaps so, but the secret was not revealed until the deaths of those who might have known it:
The main body of the Color Collection Center is under the high tower, not the ll storage area as people always thought in the past. Although when conducting research, many areas of the ll storage area are the places where researchers go most often. All communication with the color collection center , are all completed in that place, and there are countless details, which always make people misunderstand that "the color center is here", but the main body of the color center is indeed not there. What you can see in the ll storage area looks like a color center. It doesn't look like a machine, nor a human, nor an inorganic thing, but it is definitely not an organic thing. It has a vague humanoid outline, but it is absolutely It's not a human body, it's just a restraint device for the color center. It's a camouflage that was deliberately created. Because of long-term contact with the color center, its properties and contours have changed abnormally.
For a long time, most researchers in the hospital knew that there was no complete truth about the "special individual color of doomsday syndrome" and the "super biological computer color center". Because, from the beginning, the team that witnessed the mutation of the color system into the color system center did not know what the "color system center" was, and could not have a complete understanding of its nature and performance.
The color center is not an artificial creation that is created by someone and every detail is known, nor is it a simple existence that can be penetrated deeply as long as you make up your mind and put in effort. All the information about it, even if it continues to increase over time, is never complete, and it is difficult to judge how far it is. In short, there will be new discoveries every time, and every new discovery will overthrow Inferences from the past. Such changeable information is recorded, and every time it is updated, it will make people feel that it is not the same thing before and after. Even if they do not deliberately cover up, delete and modify this information, it is absolutely difficult for people to have an understanding of the "color center". Clear understanding.
But even if there is no original record with complete explanation, the hospital will still cover up and confuse this information to a certain extent, turning the "color center" that is actually very complex and beyond cognition and imagination into a "super biological computer" ¡± something that seems simpler. In actual research, the color center is mostly responsible for connecting the mental activities of patients with doomsday syndrome, capturing detailed data in ll that cannot be detected with ordinary instruments, and conducting relevant analysis on these activity data and researchers. Calculation function.
The color center can actually do more things. A few senior researchers, including Dr. Ande, who have a deep understanding of hospital work, also know that the color center can do more things. But because of this, the color center cannot be allowed to do anything other than "monitoring instruments and computers."
Because, Xise herself is a patient with Doomsday Syndrome, and as a patient, she is dangerous; the center of Xise is beyond people¡¯s understanding, there are too many mysteries, and the unknown terror is enough to make people wary, even if Just used as an artifact, it is also abnormal and dangerous. There is so much uncertainty in its operation that it is difficult to imagine that a machine that always works according to other people's ideas is safe, just because human thoughts are in charge. But, is the color center a human being? Tie Se was once a human being, but he was also a mental patient. His logic and thoughts were inherently worrying. Now even his physical structure and living posture have undergone complete changes, and his consciousness is still "people-oriented". ?
Any activity that is not dominated by people-oriented ideas is dangerous and untrustworthy for people.
Therefore, after the hospital witnessed the birth of the color center and confirmed its unknown nature, the first thing it did was to restrict it. It not only restricts its ability to move, but also restricts its possible conscious activities. Without distinguishing whether it is human nature that is dominant or what kind of inhumanity exists, it is alwaysIn other words, comprehensively intercept the phenomenon of their conscious activities. After that, we have to block its behavioral areas, let it have as little contact with external things as possible, and reduce its impact on the outside to a level that makes everyone feel "safe". However, all researchers who have done these things are very It is clear that I and others are not sure whether the restrictions they have made are really effective and how effective they are. They always use the color center with a kind of apprehension.
They have tried their best. Everything they know, can think of, have theoretical and practical limitations, are connected into a whole, and the tower is the shell of this whole, and what is inside it, whether it is the division of areas, whether there is or not By using it for other purposes, is it to hide something else? After connecting these details that seem messy and secret to outsiders one by one, the complex overall function formed is to suppress the activity of the color center. .
However, in order to use the color center, they still opened a small gap through which people can interact with the color center. Moreover, they also created a safety restraint device on this gap to ensure that it can be disconnected at any time. Open this connection.
¡°I want to get in touch with it and understand it, but I am also afraid that the unknown hidden in it will cause huge damage at a certain moment. Dr. Ander and his team, under such contradictory moods and contradictory approaches, guided other researchers to carry out research experiments on "viruses" one after another.
The color center has never resisted every restriction in the hospital. It can fully understand the ambivalence and behavior of these researchers. At the same time, because of its own ability, it has a better understanding of how terrible the "virus" is because, even if It itself, which is incredible enough in the eyes of researchers, is also unable to understand what the "virus" is and cannot directly observe its true form. In terms of research work, it can do many things better than any researcher in this island hospital, but it can also feel the limitations of its own thinking ability.
Cooperation is inevitable.
But now, the basis for cooperation has completely collapsed.
During this process, no one broke their promise, and no one wanted the situation to become like this. No one deliberately did things that led to this result, and no one wanted to sever this cooperation from the foundation. However, the basis for cooperation has still collapsed, just like a terminally ill patient will die sooner or later. This is an inevitable outcome.
"The impact of the "virus" on hospitals and the world is more subtle, violent and rapid than anyone expected. Before being able to react, before thinking of a way, before the ability is improved, mutation and death have already arrived early.
"The unexpected result, after it happened, I found out that it was actually reasonable. Although it is reasonable, it is so hard to accept.
If you are sick and there is no cure, your condition will get worse. If the condition worsens and there is no way to limit and reverse it, death will occur. This is such a simple truth.
Not only humans, but even this planet, has suffered from a terminal syndrome like a terminal illness.
