Chapter 915 The End of the Rainbow
After taking a breath for a moment, Ai Qing picked up the briefcase, once again passed through the alienated darkness, and returned to the distorted world outside the door.
Even if the pollutants have been sealed again, everything that has deepened cannot be restored. Instead, it began to spread more and more out of control.
Trying her best to ensure the completion of the mission.
That's all.
But for some reason, her footsteps paused and stopped next to the 'security director'.
"Ai...Ms. Ai's inspection...is the inspection over..."
Pajero squirmed and asked vaguely in his swollen body: "We, we work... very rigorously... Rigorously... No, there are no mistakes..."
"Well, yes, there is no mistake."
Ai Qing paused and nodded: "This all depends on everyone's dedication."
"But, but...why why...I feel..."
Pajero's voice became shrill, and he couldn't tell whether it was a groan or a cry: "I feel... not very good... is something... something wrong? It's strange... something is strange..."
In the silence, Ai Qing lowered her eyes and sighed silently.
"Mr. Pajero, on behalf of the decision-making room, I would like to thank you for your sacrifice for the safety of the current situation." She looked at the terminal in her hand and suddenly said: "If I give you a purification order, will you obey it? "
A scream-like prompt sounded from the terminal in Pajero's hand.
The command representing the highest authority emerged from above.
Illuminating that numb face.
In the confused and chaotic thoughts, something finally suddenly emerged, bringing a painful realization.
"So...is that so..." He murmured softly: "Pollution...pollution...spread..."
Ai Qing said nothing and waited quietly.
Until he lowered his head deeply: "Please...please follow me...come with me..."
Once more, he turned and squirmed forward.
When the first trace of confusion was answered, the world in front of him became extremely erratic.
The sunlight from the artificial sun, the green lawn, the colleagues coming and going, and the way they talked and laughed.
But everything is so normal, so what's wrong?
I can't understand...
It’s just painful, scary, and sad.
He stared blankly at all this, weeping silently.
After a long, long time, he turned around and opened the office door.
Open the safe.
Picked up the red phone.
"Announcement...Notice to all members of β01...Emergency...Repeat, emergency..." He paused, and his swollen body gradually stooped: "Please...all members...shelter...assemble..."
After doing all this, he seemed to have lost his strength and leaned on his chair, staring blankly at Ai Qing behind the table.
The red light of the alarm illuminated her face.
"There must be...something wrong..."
He defended feebly, raised his tentacles, covered his face, and wailed vaguely like tears: "We... we have worked here... for fifty years... obviously... there are no problems..."
Ai Qing said nothing.
Until the sound of the alarm stopped outside the window.
During the surveillance, all members followed the guidance and entered the door of the underground shelter.
"Does it have to be... like this...?" Pajero said to himself.
Ai Qing still didn't speak.
Just looked at him quietly.
Until the red button was pressed, flames and high temperatures spurted out from the gaps in the 'shelter', and screams and questions continued to come from the communication.
Finally, there was no more sound.
"Purification...command completed."
Pajero's tentacles twitched, he held up a pistol, raised his head with difficulty, and prayed: "Now...there is only...the last one left..."
"thanks for your cooperation."
Ai Qing nodded, took the pistol, pointed it at his face, and finally asked: "Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Why...you...tell me..."
"Probably, it's because of sympathy."
Ai Qing thought for a moment and told him solemnly: "'Sympathy' between the same weak people."
"I'm sorry, I can't help you, and I don't have the ability to free you. At best, I can only act like a half-hearted person and let you make your own choices."
"This is the only thing I can do for you," she said.
"No... no choice..."
Pajero twitched, shed tears, and screamed hoarsely, "It only increases...the pain..."
"maybe."
Ai Qing replied: "But there is a difference between the death of reason and the depravity of ignorance. Even if you just show resistance, you must fight back against the enemy.
If you give in, your persistence will be of no value.
I testify, Mr. Pajero, that you never let yourself down, and until the end, you were a proud member of the Astronomical Society. "
In the long silence, light shone in Pajero's cloudy eyes.
"Will there be...salvation...?"
"Maybe not."
Ai Qing lowered her eyes and said goodbye softly: "One day, let us meet again from hell."
She pulled the trigger.
No more hesitation.
Along with the deep voice, a penetrating crack appeared on Pajero's head, and the flames spread, covering the still twitching deformed body, quickly bringing about death.
At the last moment, Pajero seemed to show a relieved smile, opening and closing his lips, wanting to say something.
Soon, the smile turned into ashes as the flame went out.
Buried on the empty seat with the final farewell.
In the silence, Ai Qing picked up the briefcase and turned to leave.
The moment she walked out of the door, purifying light fell from the sky and engulfed the fortress behind her.
In the blink of an eye, everything disappears.
"mission completed."
Ai Qing raised the briefcase in her hand, stood there, and gave final instructions to the communication channel: "I need an injection of source anticoagulant, anesthesia, and standard biological isolation."
There was a soft bang in the distance.
She closed her eyes.
Five minutes later, staff members wearing heavy chemical protective suits carefully put her sleeping body into the isolation cabin, closed the hatch, and waved to the sky.
A helicopter rises above the clouds.
In the end, only the wind and snow in the sky was still howling, gradually falling on the scorched earth, covering everything that was once there.
.
"well done."
When Ai Qing opened her eyes on the bed in the isolation room, she heard the praise on the intercom: "Our recorder extracted the incident record and reviewed it. You did better than everyone imagined."
"I'm just fulfilling my duties, there's nothing to brag about."
Ai Qing raised her hand and saw the indwelling needle on her arm: "How long did I sleep?"
"Standard quarantine observation and testing, a week, a little sign of abyssal erosion found in the middle, a minor surgery, and another minor surgery."
The person on the intercom said, "You can come out now."
Ai Qing stood up slowly and checked the hospital gown on her body. Soon, she saw an alchemy matrix on her arm that she had never noticed before. She frowned but said nothing.
However, the moment he pushed the door open, his eyes were in a trance.
In an instant, I came from the hospital to a strange place.
No, she has been here before.
The office of Secretary-General Yegor, the leader of the central decision-making room of the Administrative Bureau.
"Sorry, someone was anxious to see you, so they temporarily used the Rainbow Bridge to teleport."
Behind the desk, Yegor signed the last transfer order in his hand, closed the document, raised his head and said: "You have been selected, Ms. Ai. As I predicted back then, you have the ability to maintain this world." Talent.”
"Why didn't I know I had such a thing?" Ai Qing shook her head mockingly.
"Just like you said, rationality, enough rationality is enough to face complicated situations. Of course, it would be better to add a little outstanding intuition."
Yegor stood up, opened the door behind him that had not been opened for a long time, and waved to her: "Please come with me."
"As if I have the right to refuse?"
"Will you refuse?" Yegor turned around and asked, "Isn't it that you have been working hard for this moment?"
Ai Qing did not answer, but followed into the empty hall behind the gate.
From the Astronomical Society, no, from this world...
The core of true power!
"So, the pilot meeting is real?"
She looked around and looked at the empty walls: "It's not the predecessor of the Astronomical Society in history, but the one who presided over the Astronomical Society. It really existed, right?"
Yegor shook his head and smiled: "Generally, people who come here are more reserved."
"I prefer to be more straightforward." Ai Qing said, "Wouldn't this better prove my 'talent'?"
"It's as you said."
Yegor nodded, confirming her words: "The Pioneer Society is real."
Following his words, the hall began to sink unnoticeably, and they came into a quiet darkness, slowly descending.
Until a faint light surrounded them.
Within the complex mechanical guard, a huge stone monument stands quietly.
Hundreds of huge sarcophagi stood around him, and countless cables connected them, eventually sinking into the base under the stone monument, causing a blurry face to appear on the stone monument.
Like a candle in the wind, it can dissipate at any time.
During the long sleep, his or her eyelids trembled slightly, as if they would wake up at any time.
After looking at it for a long time, that vague face seemed to have undergone some strange changes.
Gradually becoming... like my mother, like myself...
"what is that?"
Ai Qing couldn't help but take a step back and frowned.
"This is the true form of the Pioneer Association, Ai Qing. Everything you have secretly investigated in the past few months... is not some secretly controlled conspiracy organization, nor is it some terrifying inhuman group."
Yegor said softly: "The Pioneer Association is 'humanity' itself."
In the silence, Ai Qing looked around in astonishment, looking at the sarcophagi, and asked doubtfully: "Those things... they... who are they?"
"He is someone who has sacrificed everything for his current situation."
Yegor told her respectfully.
Among the people there, there are prophets who are born knowing that they are favored by God, there are also dull seekers who will one day gain enlightenment throughout their lives, and there are also honest people who face their lives faithfully until the last moment.
From the era of the Pioneer Society to the presidents, talents, heroes and great people who have made inexplicable contributions in the astronomical societies of all ages, they will be given a choice when facing death.
——Die peacefully, or give your last all to this situation?
All those who choose the latter will lie in it, their bodies will solidify, and their souls will be made into templates and specimens, becoming a vital cornerstone.
In this way, through the Silver Sea's computing device - the Silent Man's Stele, the chaotic souls of all humans can be temporarily personified.
At the critical moment, make a choice and dominate the future of this world.
At least, let humans choose the final outcome.
"Over the past hundreds of years, the 'Pioneer Society' has awakened sixteen times in total. The last time it awakened was when the Utopia fell.
Throughout history, he has issued hundreds of prophecies and warnings to us through his sleep babble, and without fail has saved the current situation from the crisis of overthrow. "
Yegor stretched out his hand to touch the base of the stone monument and announced to the successors beside him: "You have been chosen, Ai Qing. From today on, you will exist as a brother and sister of the Pioneer Association, fulfilling the will of mankind. And running.”
"Today, I entrust this power to your hands."
He said, "I hope you can fulfill your mission."
After a long silence, Ai Qing nodded solemnly.
But Yegor smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Relax, there are more than four hundred people like you in the world.
If you find it too stressful, just treat it like a regular part-time job. "
"Can anyone really treat this as a normal part-time job?"
"Of course, but I hope you won't be that kind of problem child. It's better to be more serious at critical moments."
Yegor rubbed his brows: "Anyway, this is just a process. Now you are qualified to access the core secrets of the Astronomical Society. Congratulations.
I just hope you can stay sane in the end... To be honest, when I watched it for the first time, I was a little... unable to accept it. "
As he spoke, he moved away from her.
Show the path to the stone monument in front of her.
Point your hand to indicate.
He waited patiently for her response without rushing her.
After hesitating for a long time, Ai Qing stepped up, stood under the stone tablet, and looked up.
When she concentrated and observed carefully, the blurry face was no longer visible, replaced by lines of prophecies from yesterday.
Regarding, the list of twenty-four elements of destruction...
Ai Qing took a deep breath subconsciously.
Look to the top.
[Elements of Destruction·Rancher]
[Elements of Destruction·Piper]
[Elements of Destruction·Gaia]
[Elements of Destruction·Bo Xun]
[Elements of Destruction·Men in Gray]
…
The list is not coherent, the fragments that have been fulfilled are shining with warning, the fragments that have been destroyed have cracks, and the ones that have never appeared are hidden in the chaos of nothingness and cannot be clearly seen.
Existences such as the element of destruction Apophis, which symbolizes a major threat to the current situation from outer space, are dim and almost extinguished, but they cannot be completely extinct.
It should be said that as long as the concept of the universe still exists in the current situation, such hidden dangers cannot be eliminated.
Soon, Ai Qing jumped over the chaotic fog that was interrupted in the middle and headed towards the bottom of the stone monument. Her heart suddenly contracted. Even if she had some guesses, her breathing still stopped.
Subconsciously clenched his fingers.
That line of dim handwriting...
The last prophecy made by the previous president is the biggest hidden danger that may destroy the world.
This is the core secret and the most targeted target of the Astronomical Society. At the same time, it is also the enemy that cannot be defeated even if they prepare for war for years and are vigilant day and night.
The last ending among the twenty-four elements of destruction is also the first existence.
