Chapter 373 City
"Go deep into the forest?"
Chen Fan frowned when he heard Wang Jing's words.
He hurriedly stopped Xu Huai who was about to go deep into the forest: "Xu Huai, wait a minute."
Seeing this, Wang Jing stopped and cast a confused look at Chen Fan.
"Chen Fan, what are you doing..."
"Academician Wang, you haven't performed many investigation missions, so you don't know much about the situation in this universe." Chen Fan looked solemn, "If I'm not mistaken, you should want to use these phantoms to study information interference technology?"
There was nothing to hide about this intention, so Wang Jing agreed generously: "Of course!"
"Chen Fan, you should know that for the current Human Union, the importance of information interference technology is absolutely ranked first!"
"Only by mastering the theory of material informatization can the Human Union be qualified to compete with broadcast civilization."
Chen Fan nodded solemnly: "Academician Wang, I suggest you don't rush."
"Based on my previous investigation experience..."
"It's better to be careful when performing investigation missions in this universe bubble."
As he said, Chen Fan glanced at the phantom passing by him calmly, and asked Xu Huai: "Is there any danger in the forest?"
"Danger?"
Xu Huai shook his head subconsciously: "Have you forgotten? In addition to various plants on this planet, there are only us Varela people."
"But the Central Council is considering launching a biological research project. I heard from the Councillor that the rebels at the time kept a lot of genetic samples of plants and animals. Maybe after a while, this planet will become lively..."
Speaking of Varela, Xu Huai's words suddenly became dense.
Shadows passed behind Xu Huai. In the flickering fluorescence, the girl in a purple-gold robe who had always maintained a serious look in front of everyone finally showed a longing smile.
Looking at Xu Huai's slightly curved eyes, Chen Fan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
At this moment, he finally realized where the vague sense of disharmony in his heart came from.
Not only Chen Fan, but also Isa and Gao Yuan who followed Chen Fan were a little touched.
Chen Fan did not interrupt Xu Huai's words, but just listened to her narration silently - from the biological research project that was about to start, to the reclamation and planning of the cities around Xinghui City, the smile in Xu Huai's eyes gradually became stronger.
Suddenly, Xu Huai seemed to realize something, and his voice suddenly paused. The smile that appeared on his face involuntarily also quickly withdrew: "Sorry, I..."
"It's okay." Before Chen Fan could speak, Wang Jing had already smiled and waved her hand, "The development history of a civilization, no matter how powerful this civilization is, it is worth listening to seriously."
"Besides... I also like to listen to these."
Hearing this, Xu Huai's apology on his face became less.
Chen Fan cleared his throat and brought the topic back: "Xu Huai, you may have misunderstood me."
"The danger I mentioned is not the biological danger."
"I mean... did the exploration team sent by the Central Council before have any abnormalities?"
Xu Huai's face suddenly flushed. Obviously, she also realized that she had made a big joke.
Of course, this is actually inevitable-unlike Chen Fan, now she thinks about the development of Xinghui City and Varela civilization every day, so there will naturally be a big difference in her way of thinking.
"Oh...oh..."
Xu Huai responded in a low voice, with a thoughtful look in his eyes: "Abnormal situation..."
"Although those exploration teams are not under my jurisdiction, I have also heard some information."
"After leaving the Starlight Forest, many people in the exploration team became mentally ill."
"However, the preliminary diagnosis is that they were over-frightened. The doctor believes that they were just scared by those phantoms."
"After all..."
As he spoke, Xu Huai glanced at the huge phantom that was more than two meters tall and passed through his body: "These things look like ghosts."
"This is also what ordinary people in Starlight City think of the phantoms." Xu Huai shrugged and sighed helplessly, "Neither the Central Council nor those engineers can use science to explain the existence of these phantoms, so the theory of ghosts has become more and more intense. Under the outbreak of fear, the management of the Central Council has become extremely difficult."
"Sister Huai, it's normal that you can't explain it." Isa came to Xu Huai's side, and her slightly curled silver-white hair emerged from the wide hood. Under the hood, her mechanical eyes flashed with a faint blue light - perhaps because of the habit of wearing priest robes in the past, Isa still likes to wear some wide clothes with huge hoods.
Compared with Xu Huai, Isa's expression was obviously much more lively: "Look, even the Human Alliance has not figured out the reason for the appearance of these phantoms. After all, the Varela civilization has just started. How can it figure out these profound things so quickly?"
"Yes." Gao Yuan, who had been silent all the time, also nodded in agreement.
Xu Huai smiled and subconsciously raised his hand to rub Isa's head.
On the other side, Chen Fan had fallen into deep thought.
He did not pay attention to the ghost mentioned by Xu Huai. On the contrary, his focus was on the first half of Xu Huai's sentence: "Mental disorder caused by excessive fright?"
As he said that, he turned his head and looked at Wang Jing.
Chen Fan quickly sensed what Wang Jing was thinking from her eyes: "Academician Wang, there must be something wrong here, right?"
Wang Jing nodded solemnly: "Yes, there is something wrong."
"Even if they were too frightened, it is impossible for everyone to become insane."
"In my opinion, this is more like a sequelae caused by excessive fluctuations in the information entropy in the surrounding space and time."
"Unconsciously, the brain received a large amount of scattered information in a short period of time, so the mental state became abnormal."
Chen Fan, who had already guessed it in his heart, couldn't help but sigh.
It's the problem of information interference again!
Today's Human Union has no means to block these scattered information! !
"In theory, the higher the degree of brain development, the stronger the impact it can withstand." Wang Jing gritted his teeth, "Compared with the Varela people, I should be able to withstand the impact."
"Besides, for the sake of the Human Union, even if there is a certain danger in the forest, I have to go in and explore!"
Hearing Wang Jing say this, Chen Fan could only nod and cast an inquiring look at Xu Huai: "Xu Huai, you..."
Unlike others, Xu Huai is not his assistant, nor a member of the Human Union, so...
he must follow Xu Huai's personal wishes.
"Let's go."
Xu Huai smiled lightly and took the lead to walk towards the forest ahead.
...
Passing through the sparse bushes, a tarmac road appeared in the lush forest.
This is the trace of the activities of the Varela people in the past six months - whether it is industrial raw materials or building materials, this forest that has been reserved for a long time is a perfect source of raw materials.
An illusory street paved with unknown materials extends forward, overlapping with the asphalt road almost perfectly.
A row of high tower-like buildings are neatly arranged on both sides of this illusory street.
The waists of these high tower buildings of similar size and shape are depicted with some words that have never been seen before.
Just like the signs of shops on the street.
Unlike the scene of war in Xinghui City, the shadow in Xinghui Forest is relatively calm, and no fierce war has broken out.
Of course.
Although the war has not yet spread to this illusory city, the atmosphere of war has spread in the city - all the pedestrians on the street have put on mechanical armor.
Obviously, the residents of this "city" have known that war is coming.
In order to accommodate and protect tall users, these tightly fitted mechanical armors are as high as three meters. In Chen Fan's view, these mechanical armors are just like small Gundams.
It is precisely because of these mechanical armors that Chen Fan still does not know the true faces of these highly intelligent creatures.
"It looks like a city?"
Looking at the shadows that were not real but extremely clear, Chen Fan frowned and made a guess.
"It does look a bit like it." Isa nodded, her eyes quickly swept over the surrounding buildings, trying to find out what these shops sell.
Unfortunately.
The doors of all the shops were tightly closed, and Isa's idea fell through.
At the same time, the holographic interface from Yi popped up automatically in front of her.
[This machine searched the database and did not find any text with a similar structure. ]
Chen Fan was not surprised by the information reported by Yi - or in other words, if these words really existed in the human-linked database, it would be a shocking change! !
He turned his head and glanced in the direction of Wang Jing.
At this moment, Wang Jing has entered the research state:
several scientific research robots are following her, busy bringing unknown high-precision probes into the forest, and in front of Wang Jing, a large holographic panel suddenly appeared, on which various symbols and curves that Chen Fan could not understand flashed rapidly.
Suddenly, Xu Huai, who was walking in front, stopped.
A fork in the road appeared in front of everyone - not only the real asphalt road, but also several forks in the virtual street.
"How should we go next?" Chen Fan asked Xu Huai.
"Go this way."
Before Xu Huai could speak, an intellectual voice suddenly came from behind.
Chen Fan turned his head and looked behind him, only to see Wang Jing still looking down at the holographic panel in front of her, but her right hand was slightly raised, pointing out a path for Chen Fan.
Chen Fan glanced at Xu Huai: "Xu Huai?"
"...Yes, it's this road." Hearing Chen Fan's voice, Xu Huai suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Wang Jing at the end of the team with admiration, "We must take this road."
She hesitated for a moment and asked softly: "The road conditions in this forest are very complicated. Do you... know the map of Xinghui Forest?"
"No."
Wang Jing raised her head and stared at the fork she pointed out:
"The information entropy fluctuation in that direction is nearly 15 percentage points higher than other areas."
