NIP Chapter 589 Thunder Tyrannosaurus Rex
Chapter 589 Thunder Tyrannosaurus Rex
Lin Feng opened the case door, his eyes scanning over a row of circuit breakers, and quickly found the branch switch labeled "VR Classroom Lighting and Equipment".
Without hesitation, he raised his hand and switched the switch to the "OFF" position.
The lights in the entire classroom went out instantly, and the power indicator lights on all the terminal devices also went out.
But problems immediately arose.
Su Wan stood in the dimly lit classroom, her voice tinged with obvious seriousness:
"After the gates are closed, VR glasses will no longer work."
"Without VR glasses, you can't enter Proust's four-dimensional mezzanine space, and you can't go underground."
The two exchanged a glance and remained silent for a moment.
Lin Feng spoke first: "Okay—I'll go in first. After I enter the underground space, you can turn off the power here."
Su Wan frowned slightly: "What if something happens to you inside..."
In the simulation, death would not harm the body, but the pain of being cut and torn apart was incredibly real, and she couldn't help but worry.
Lin Feng pursed his lips slightly and gently stroked the back of her hand:
"Once I'm inside, I'll quickly assess the power supply situation, and I'll exit immediately if I find anything abnormal."
Su Wan pondered for a few seconds, then nodded: "Okay, be careful."
Lin Feng turned the circuit switch back on, then put on the VR glasses, and his figure instantly disappeared from the classroom.
Having successfully entered the four-dimensional interlayer space, Lin Feng held his breath and pressed his feet as lightly as possible, gliding along the ground like a falling feather.
The domed space at the end of the stairs unfolded inch by inch before his eyes.
He pressed himself against the wall, hiding his body in the shadows, only peeking out half an eye.
The massive metal array in the center was now shrouded in layers of dark gray mist, with hundreds of pale, distorted faces silently floating in the fog.
Just then, a very faint sound of electricity being cut off came from above—
The humming cooling fan suddenly slowed down and then stopped completely.
The eerie green status indicator lights on the walls surrounding the dome flashed all at once before going out.
The entire underground space fell into a moment of deathly silence.
Even the gray mist clinging to the host paused for a moment, as if the remnant souls were also confused.
Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat, and his pupils suddenly brightened.
It became.
The power supply link did indeed come from the classroom.
With this power outage, the entire Amansa core lost power, which was achieved effortlessly!
The corners of his mouth were just about to turn up—
In the darkness, the previously still remnant souls suddenly turned their heads in unison.
The next instant, the gray fog suddenly exploded.
More than a hundred afterimages were simultaneously drawn by some kind of will, rushing toward the wall in the northwest corner of the space.
The dark gray mist condensed into a vortex and slammed violently against the metal wall—
"boom--"
The heavy metal plate flipped inward, revealing a deep, dark door.
A faint blue glow of electric arcs emanated from inside the door, and the crackling sound of electric shocks grew louder and more frequent as they approached.
A huge, scaly claw stepped out from the hidden door.
The entire dome trembled the moment my foot touched the ground.
Then came the second one.
Then a huge silhouette, wrapped in blue and white electric arcs, slowly emerged from the hidden door.
Its thick tail trailed behind it, and electric arcs sparked a string of sparks on the ground's cooling grates.
Those vertical pupils were golden, as cold as two frozen lightning bolts.
Lin Feng's pupils contracted sharply, and a name flashed through his mind:
"Thunder...Tyrannosaurus Rex?!"
He didn't even realize he had taken a half step back.
The colossal beast walked straight to the Amansa mainframe, lowered its massive head, and opened its enormous maw, crackling with electric arcs—
A thick, blue-white column of electricity shot out from its throat and precisely injected into the power supply interface at the bottom of the main unit.
Instantly, the indicator lights that had just gone out lit up again, and a ghostly green light spread upwards from the bottom of the host, like some kind of cold life reviving.
The cooling fans roared back to life.
The hard drive array began to read and write frantically.
Then--
Several hidden metal doors on the four walls of the dome popped open simultaneously, emitting a muffled sound of air pressure being released, "Pfft—Pfft—".
One after another, pale, twisted, and bizarre corpses emerged straight out of the hidden compartments within the wall, yet landed steadily on their feet.
Their bodies are fitted with metal joints, hydraulic linkages, sutures, and mechanical prosthetics; some have half of their face covered in rotting human skin, while the other half is exposed metal skull.
Some arms have been replaced with multi-joint robotic arms, with scalpels, bone saws, electric drills, and injection needles at their ends;
Some of them had their abdomens split open, revealing the gears and pistons that were clicking and turning inside.
They stood in a row, their movements perfectly synchronized, like puppets pulled by the same string.
On his pale face, two clusters of eerie green light shone in his empty eye sockets.
The brief power outage and system crash allowed Amansa's AI core to instantly determine:
The external forces were deliberately sabotaged, and the core power supply was intercepted and cut off.
Relying on the continuous thunder energy from the Thunder Tyrannosaurus Rex, the host computer's computing power was instantly fully activated, accurately tracing and locking onto the VR classroom above in milliseconds—locking onto Su Wan, who had pulled the power switch.
[External power outage detected. The perpetrator is Su Wan. Hunting and elimination program initiated.]
Amansa gave the order.
Lin Feng's heart sank suddenly, and he dared not linger for even half a second. His mind went blank.
"retreat!"
The entire dome space shattered like a broken mirror.
........................
Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes, his forehead covered in cold sweat, his chest heaving violently as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
Su Wan opened her eyes almost simultaneously and grabbed his wrist: "How are you? What's going on down there?"
Lin Feng calmed himself down for a few moments, his voice still carrying a hint of tension:
"The good news is—Amansha did lose power, for about two or three seconds. The circuit did indeed run from the classroom; the wiring wasn't wrong."
Su Wan's eyes lit up: "The bad news is—"
"The bad news is," Lin Feng swallowed, "it immediately activated the backup power."
Su Wan frowned slightly: "What backup power?"
Lin Feng looked at her and said, slowly and deliberately:
"A Tyrannosaurus Rex whose body was crackling with lightning."
Su Wan's pupils suddenly contracted, and the color drained from her face.
"...A Thunder Tyrannosaurus Rex?! Isn't that an ancient, extinct thunderous beast? How could it be imprisoned in the basement of Yongshan Hospital?!"
"I don't know the specific reason." Lin Feng shook his head, his tone becoming increasingly solemn. "But I saw with my own eyes that after the power went out, those remnant souls opened the hidden door in the wall, and that giant beast walked out of the hidden door and instantly restarted Amansa with its own lightning energy."
Lin Feng added, "Moreover—Amansa locked onto you immediately after restarting."
Su Wan looked up: "Locked on me?"
Lin Feng nodded: "Yes, it sent out... a stitched mechanical puppet."
Su Wan frowned: "A stitched mechanical puppet? What's that?"
Lin Feng organized his thoughts:
"It's a monster made up of bizarre corpses and mechanical parts."
Su Wan's expression gradually froze, as if she had remembered something, and she murmured softly:
"No wonder...the bodies of patients who have recently died in the hospital keep mysteriously disappearing, and the hospital can't find any trace of them each time."
She abruptly raised her head, her gaze turning cold: "So they were all dragged in to be used as sew-up materials!"
