Tales of Soldier - Chapter 3

[Chapter 3]

“Damn! Why am I so unlucky?” Tang Long kept complaining while eating the food he finally got after completing the training: “How can those perverted instructors come up with some ancient training methods? In this era Are you still concerned about physical fitness?”

No wonder Tang Long complained, he has been at this base for three days, and every day is a physical exercise such as weight-bearing running, swimming, sit-ups, push-ups, handstand pull-ups and so on. And it’s not to measure Tang Long’s physical strength to exercise. After the robot has set a terrifying goal, Tang Long will be whipped if he doesn’t achieve it. Such as push-ups, one command is 100 times. If he can’t do it, he will have no food and caning. Tang Long is very surprised that he can survive until now.

You must know that in this era, except for sports athletes who have super-intensive training, ordinary soldiers do not need to train physically. Now just move your fingers and use your brains to fight. Why do you have to work so hard?

Tang Long has a one-minute break after each meal. It seems that the robot also understands the reason why he can’t do intense activities after eating. Tang Long is now ready to use this time to have some fun.

“Well, if you have a cigarette after dinner, you will be really happy and immortal.” Tang Long wiped his mouth and stood up and sighed. He was just talking about it, he had never smoked, and even if he wanted to learn it, he couldn’t learn it. He was the only living person in this base.

“Haha, I didn’t expect that a private like me would be able to match.” Tang Long said while pressing the laser pistol on his waist, looking at the pitch-dark hall with a stiff expression.

I don’t know how, since he blew up the dining room, the power supply in the hall has been lost from time to time. The robot instructor didn’t pursue him for blowing up the dining room, but gave him a pistol. Fortunately, Tang Long wouldn’t be so afraid in the dark because he had a gun on him. Of course, he didn’t dare to just take it out and shoot. After accidentally shooting the instructor a few times yesterday, now he thinks about it, his calf cramps.

Tang Long looked at the dark scene, gritted his teeth, and pulled his finger into the trigger. Of course, he still didn’t pull the gun out, so he pressed it on his waist and walked out of the dining room.

He also didn’t want to leave the bright dining room, but now not only is there no electricity in his room, but even the dining room doesn’t know when it will suddenly run out of electricity and close the door. The blown-up door had long since been fixed by an automatic repair device. The only place with electricity in the entire base is the entertainment room, where Tang Long has entered once, and there are all kinds of three-dimensional games. It was also for this reason that Tang Long dared to enter the dark hall to the entertainment room.

“Damn it! It’s changed again!” Tang Long scolded angrily. He found that every time he came to the place where the entrance to the entertainment room was based on his own memory, he would not know where he was. It made him search around the hall from place to place in the dark.

Tang Long didn’t know why the entertainment room didn’t open when it sensed that someone was in front of it, and he had to manually enter it. It can only be explained by the lack of electricity. He didn’t know that the power failure rate of military bases was only 0.0001%, and it was possible to have a power failure only by destroying the entire base.

Tang Long pressed the gun in one hand, bent over and carefully groped around the wall, while he said to himself to strengthen himself: “I really don’t know which idiot set the manual door opening device of this base so low that it made me eat it. When I’m full, I need to do abdominal muscle exercise… Ah, I found it.” Tang Long felt a protruding point and shouted happily.

The last time he found the recreation room, the break time had passed, because he had to open it room by room to see it. So after that time, he shot a few shots at the corner, but because of the automatic repair device, he had to shoot a big hole and stuffed the discarded laser gun energy clip into it. This way the automatic repair device will not lose the mark.

Tang Long was in a hurry to break the record of last night’s shooting game. As soon as he opened the door, he wanted to rush in. The sight in front of him immediately made him collapse to the ground with a scream, because there was a skeleton standing at the door, whose whole body could be seen. Skull man.

Tang Long moved back in panic, pulled out the pistol from his waist, raised his hand to aim and wanted to shoot. But the moment he pulled the trigger, he noticed a flash of green light in the skull man’s eyes. It was the light he was most familiar with, the kind of light that would wake him up from a dream at night. So his heart skipped a beat and he quickly put his hand down, and stammered, “Teach… teach… Hello, instructor.”

The skull man nodded, his dark and white teeth split up and down, and an emotionless voice came from there: “Very good, you can control the shooting ***. Hehe, if you just shot I don’t know what the punishment will be for the crime of murdering the officer twice?” Speaking of which, the green light in the robot’s eyes brightened.

Seeing that weird green light, Tang Long only felt his scalp tingle for a while, and quickly got up and stood there respectfully, not daring to move.

“Tang Long, what are you afraid of?” The robot instructor also put his hands behind his back, and the sound of skeletons touching made Tang Long goosebumps.

Although Tang Long didn’t know what the instructor was asking about, he still answered loudly, “Report sir, I’m afraid of soft-bodied reptiles! And…and there are ghosts!” Speaking of which Tang Long secretly Glancing at the robot. He was trained for three days by the instructor’s training method beyond perversion, and now he has turned the movement of the soldier into his own conditioned reflex.

“Oh? Soft creatures and fictional ghosts?” The robot instructor folded his arms in a very humane way, and touched the metal chin with his snow-white bone hand.

Tang Long didn’t notice the proof of this intelligent robot at all, he didn’t dare to look at the skeleton instructor now. He didn’t dare to open his eyes until he heard the sound of heavy metal objects moving past him into the darkness, and glanced at the metal skeleton hidden in the darkness with a guilty conscience.

Of course, after taking a look, Tang Long immediately ran into the entertainment room like a rabbit. He wanted to get rid of that ominous feeling by playing games.

But when Tang Long was just starting to play, there was a rush of whistle outside the door, which was the whistle to end the rest. Tang Long reluctantly left the game console, and when he came to the door, he found that the hall had not turned into daylight as before, but was still dark.

The ominous feeling became even stronger, when Tang Long was hesitant to get out. The power to the game room suddenly disappeared, and the entire base was in darkness. Terrified, Tang Long hurriedly held the pistol tightly.

Just when Tang Long was in a panic, there was a sound of Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka. Hearing that voice, Tang Long knew it was the sound of a robot walking. He opened his eyes wide and stared at the dark place in front of him.

After a while, with the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, Tang Long first saw ten swaying green light spots, and then five skeletons that were faintly shining white. Seeing that terrifying scene, Tang Long’s tightly gripped hand fell down with a bang. But Tang Long didn’t pick it up, he didn’t say anything now, even the simple action of closing his eyes was too frightened to execute.

Tang Long just stared at the five robot instructors without clothes walking in front of him. The robot’s neat legs are separated, and its hands are behind its back: “Stand at attention!”

Hearing this order, Tang Long conditioned his legs together and gave a military salute with a snap: “Hello sir!” Then he followed the example of an instructor with his hands behind his back. It was not until these unconscious movements were completed that Tang Long woke up. But now Tang Long has no time to worry and be afraid.

“Now announce the training goal of Private Tang Long for three months! One: exercise courage, two: exercise physical fitness, three: exercise avoidance ability. If you have any questions, ask them immediately!” See who’s mouth is moving.

Tang Long immediately threw his fear away when he heard this. His curiosity prevailed, so he immediately raised his hand and asked: “Report instructor, what is exercise courage?”

No one answered him. When Tang Long was about to ask a question, the dark surroundings changed, turning into a dark and terrifying forest environment. “This scene is at least slightly better than darkness.” Tang Long, who shuddered, thought. But soon he longed to return to the embrace of darkness.

Because in addition to this dark environment, there were some moving things around. Tang Long looked at it, and it turned out to be all kinds of soft and slippery snakes, disgusting caterpillars, terrifying scorpions, and other soft-bodied reptiles. biology. There are also all kinds of rotten zombies that have only been seen in three-dimensional movies, and the nauseating corpse worms actually crawled all over the bodies of those zombies, and kept falling down as the zombies walked.

Don’t think about it, Tang Long immediately screamed when he saw such a terrifying scene. The instructor, of course, immediately picked up the whip and whipped it. Tang Long was chased and whipped several times, but he still did not calm down. He desperately shrank to the corner of the wall, as if he wanted to stuff himself into the wall.

“As a soldier, you are afraid of these imaginary things, what are you doing! Listen! In a month you will be living in such an environment, the canteen is still open and closed on time, and if you don’t eat during the opening hours, Then you will be hungry for that meal! And you can only use ancient metal weapons to resist these images that attack you. You must know that this is an improved virtual system of the “Fear” game. If you are attacked by them, you will suffer damage. is beyond the real.”

It is also unknown which robot said this, the five skeletons of them disappeared into the darkness after the sound fell, leaving behind a large metal knife.

Although Tang Long’s consciousness is about to disappear, he still retains his consciousness because those terrifying things are not close to him. At the same time, he also heard the words of the instructor. Of course, he, a game lover, knows the game “Fear”. This game is a product of the emergence of virtual reality systems a long time ago, which directly transmits information to the brain through neurotactile sensations, making the sights faced have effects beyond reality.

When the game was just tested, among the 100 gamers who participated in the test, the number of people with neurological disorders reached a terrifying number of 90, and all of these 100 people were virtually injured and turned into mentally disabled people, which cannot be cured by super psychotherapy. This mental disability means that in the game, if the hand is cut off by a monster, the brain thinks that this feeling is true, and it will give up the command function of the intact hand, making this hand disabled after the game.

Since the realism of the game surpassed reality, the game was abandoned before it was finished. Later, it was used to make games such as airplanes and racing cars. Also because of the surpassing real system, the players died when they failed. Of course, there are also people who use this system to create porn games, but unfortunately, they are still made to **** by this terrifying system. This virtual system has also been improved, but after the improvement, the feeling of beyond reality is lost, and it has become an ordinary three-dimensional game. In the end, the government issued a strict ban on the development of this virtual reality system, because it is not only dangerous but also makes people unable to distinguish between the real world and the virtual world. So this imprisoned system is called the death system, and the unfinished “Fear” is called the death game.

Tang Long didn’t expect that the robot would actually dig out this game of death. If he was not careful, his life would freeze over the water in minutes.

When people face danger and great fear, there will be two manifestations: one is to lose oneself, the other is to surpass oneself.

Although Tang Long faced the most fearful things in his heart, he also knew that fear in this system would only bring death. With the synthesized voice from above: “The game will start in 10 seconds, please prepare. 10, 9, 8, 7…” Tang Long jumped up abruptly and threw himself at the big knife that had been wrapped in large and small snakes. go with.

He knew that the hairs on his whole body were standing up now, and he was also surrounded by a furry feeling, especially when he touched the slippery soft creature, he felt that the hair was about to fly out of the scalp. But in the face of the temptations of life, what are these?

When Tang Long counted to 1, he picked up the knife, then turned around and ran. Because the objects that were not moving started to make terrifying noises and rushed towards him.

“You five metal bastards! I have sex with your ancestors of the 36th generation! If I don’t dismantle you into scrap and sell them in a month, I won’t be named Tang!” Tang Long’s curse came out in the forest, Of course, it also entrained: “Go to hell!” “Kill!” “Damn!” These angry shouts and screams.

When Tang Long was facing a huge danger, on the planet Ladd hundreds of millions of light-years away, a person in an apartment in a certain city also picked up the stereo phone anxiously. Anxiously waiting for the call to be connected.

A three-dimensional head portrait of a middle-aged man appeared. He saw the woman for a moment, but before he could speak, the woman had already shouted anxiously: “Tang Long has not contacted me for three days, what should I do?”

“Three days?” The middle-aged man was obviously taken aback when he heard this, but he said hurriedly, “I think he might not know where to play, and he was so happy that he forgot to call home?”

“Impossible! You also know that Tang Long is very well behaved, so why didn’t he contact us for three days. Could something happen to him…” The woman choked a little when she said this.

The middle-aged man hurriedly comforted: “Our son is so clever that nothing will happen. If something really happened, the police would have notified us long ago. … Well, why don’t you report the case first, Tang Long has an ID card, We’ll find out where he is soon.”

The woman who had already burst into tears did not realize that there was another way to confirm her son’s safety, of course, by pressing the stereo phone immediately. After a while, a female police officer in a police uniform appeared next to the middle-aged man’s head. She smiled and asked, “Hello, this is the Federal Police Department. How can I help you?”

The woman knew that this was a virtual human being controlled by a computer, so she said without being polite: “My son is missing. His ID number is LADE0125TANGLONG34140531221.” The gourd is overripe.

“Okay, please wait a moment.” The policewoman was still smiling, and she didn’t see any expression on her face, so she stopped for a moment and said, “I found it, Tang Long, male, from the 0125 district of Rad Star, Born in 3414 of the cosmic calendar. He joined the Federation army three days ago on the planet Kayla and is currently undergoing military training.”

“What?!” The heads of the woman and the middle-aged man who were listening at the same time showed expressions of shock and disbelief. They did not expect their son to become a soldier after only three days of walking.

“It’s impossible, it’s impossible! How could he be a soldier? It’s impossible…” The woman shook her head in disbelief. The middle-aged man was more courageous, and soon woke up from this shocking news, he comforted the woman: “When you are a soldier, you are a soldier. Anyway, there is no war now, at most, you can be a conscript for three years, and Tang Long is a soldier. The guy has nothing to do all day, and his health is so bad, it will be better for him to go to the military and train later.”

The woman just couldn’t accept it at first, and quickly woke up. For her, nothing happened to her son, so she put down the stone in her heart. Moreover, as my husband said, now is a peaceful age, it is a good thing to join the army to exercise, anyway, it is not impossible to visit.

So she wiped away tears and asked the policewoman, “What training camp is he in?”

The policewoman paused again before saying, “I’m sorry, this is a military secret and can’t be found.”

The middle-aged man stayed for a while. He had never heard that the training camp was a military secret. If the training camp was kept secret, it would be strange that the parents of the recruits would not protest, so he asked strangely: “This is impossible, Look more closely.” Conference calls were available thousands of years ago, so middle-aged people can still speak to policewomen on another phone.

“Okay.” After the policewoman finished speaking, she kept her smile still, but this time she was silent for a longer time. The couple looked at the policewoman nervously.

After a long time, the policewoman shook her head: “Sorry, the secrecy level of his training camp is SS level, and even the federal marshal can’t know. Is there anything else I can help?”

The middle-aged man opened his mouth and couldn’t go back. He was a businessman of considerable status, so he knew that the secret code of the country’s ultimate weapon could only reach the S-level, and now his son’s training camp is actually SS-level! What kind of training camp would that be. The businessman’s keen intuition made him feel that his son was caught in a very dangerous whirlpool, so he hurriedly stopped his wife, who wanted to say something, and told the policewoman that there was nothing to do.

Seeing that the policewoman disappeared before she could explain it clearly, the woman couldn’t help but ask dissatisfiedly, “What’s going on? What is SS class? Where is Tang Long?”

The middle-aged man said with a serious expression: “Don’t ask so many questions. When I come back and explain to you, you have to remember that when someone asks where Tang Long has gone, you will say that you are going to study abroad. No matter who asks that. , you have to answer like this, because this is related to Tang Long’s life safety. Well, wait for me at home, I’ll be right back.”

The woman couldn’t help being stunned when she saw her husband’s serious expression. She had never seen such a serious expression from her husband. Although she didn’t know what was going on, for the safety of her son, she nodded to show her understanding.

A few hours later, the middle-aged man appeared beside the woman and explained to her the meaning of SS, the woman was also surprised. They decided not to ask about their son for the time being, but they also found it strange that they knew best what kind of person their son was. Can such an ordinary teenager participate in SS-level affairs?

In fact, Tang Long’s parents were overly concerned. They said before that the federal terminal computer is a smart computer, and ‘her’ only friends are the five robots who have lived the same age as ‘she’. Since the existence of the 23rd Regiment was discovered hundreds of years ago, it was almost destroyed. In order to protect her friends, ‘She’ positioned the 23rd regiment as the top secret of the state, and no one could inquire about it. This time, it was because Tang Long was the first to take the exam for the 23 regiment in hundreds of years, and he left traces on the computer before he could find it. But now even if Tang Long’s parents wanted to investigate, they couldn’t find it, because all the information was revised after ‘she’ learned that someone was looking for the 23 regiment. Because of this incident, she became interested in Tang Long, the only human who appeared in the 23rd regiment.

A month later, five robots with naked metal skeletons appeared in the hall, and with their appearance, the dark forest of the hall disappeared. The entire hall was restored to a snow-white environment.

A man with a dirty and tattered military uniform, long hair, and a thin stature, sat in the center of the hall with his head down and his knees crossed. A faint murderous aura was coming out of him.

The disappearance of the forest did not cause the man to look up, nor did the robot come to his side. The five robot instructors looked at the soldier and listened to the synthesized voice from above: “Player Tang Long, the game time is 29 days and 21 hours, 35 minutes and 53 seconds, and 18,604 enemies have been eliminated.”

The robot was slightly taken aback when they heard the number. When they first heard the time, they guessed that Tang Long should kill a maximum of 8,604 enemies. This is calculated by killing 5 enemies per minute, but they did not expect that there would be 10,000 more.

“Well done, Tang Long. After living this month, I believe that your inner fear has disappeared.” Tang Long raised his eyes and glared at the robot just after speaking. The robot, who never knew what fear was, suddenly realized that he was Dare to face Tang Long’s eyes. This is also because they are intelligent robots and have the same emotions as human beings. Otherwise, Tang Long’s sharp eyes would be as useless as intimidating a computer.

Tang Long doesn’t feel scared at all when he sees these skeleton robots. He almost sleeps on a corpse this month. Although it is virtual, it is very real. Not only does it have a rancid smell, but also that sticky disgusting feeling. Such a skull man is simply scaring children for him. So he jumped up angrily, raised his knife and slashed at the robot.

He has lived an inhuman life this month. Those virtual monsters attacking him will not only make him feel pain, but also when the worms get on his body, the sticky and disgusting feeling is very real. The corpse worms, corpse water, and rotting meat that splashed when he was hacked, sprinkled on him with a foul smell, and immediately made himself vomit out the acid in his stomach.

These are nothing. Although they were scared at first, they became numb over time. The annoying thing is that these disgusting things will follow me when I eat, go to the toilet, and sleep. Go to the toilet while slashing at the peeking zombies, and watch out for the hands sticking out of the toilet. When you sleep, you have to be awake all the time, and you will be eaten by someone in your sleep if you are not careful. Especially when eating, the way those corpse worms are rubbing and moving in the food can make him unable to eat for three days. Although I don’t know how heavy it is now, I can be sure that I must be a human now. So annoyed Tang Long slashed the robot desperately to discourage him.

However, although the metal knife was sharpened like a laser knife, it was not, so apart from the sound of the collision, it felt like Tang Long felt numb in his hands. The metal of the robot was not ordinary hard.

“Mummy!” Tang Long, who had not been electrocuted for more than 20 days, was whipped a few times, then dropped his sword and rolled on the ground.

“You attacked the officer with a sharp weapon, and you will be punished for 300 push-ups! If you don’t finish it, you won’t be able to eat!” The robot who was slashed by Tang Long said coldly.

Only then did Tang Long remember that the five guys in front of him were different from the zombies that could be chopped into pieces. They were all robot officers who could not be killed and were inhuman. Knowing the current affairs, he hurriedly stood up and stood at attention: “It’s the officer! X&$@#*” He also remembered that as long as he said something about the officer first, he could scold these guys with swear words. So he’s doing push-ups while swearing at the swear words he’s used to this month.

There’s no way, this month is all about enemies who can’t speak human words, so what if you don’t kill them while swearing? If you don’t speak for a month, you will become dumb.

Faced with the threat of death this month, Tang Long’s physical fitness has long been extraordinary. Although he almost couldn’t get up after these 300 push-ups, it was only almost, so he was still able to stand upright.

“Very well, you can rest now. For the two months starting tomorrow, we will conduct a combination of avoidance training and physical training.” The robot instructor said coldly.

When Tang Long heard this, he immediately kept his upright posture and fell down, and at the same time he snorted. You know he hasn’t had a good night’s sleep for so long.

When the five robots saw Tang Long fell, they all scanned Tang Long with red light in their eyes, and then they walked to Tang Long’s head and four limbs and stood up. I didn’t see how they moved, the floor under Tang Long supported Tang Long and slowly rose. It stopped when it reached the waist of the robot.

At this time, the green electronic eyes of the robot suddenly turned blue, and ten blue lights began to sweep back and forth on Tang Long. After ten minutes, Tang Long’s dark and dry skin returned to a healthy color. At this time, the robot’s blue eyes also returned to a green color, but it seemed that the green light was not as bright as before. Finally, one of the robots picked up Tang Long and walked to Tang Long’s residence.

The remaining four robots were still standing, and although they didn’t move, they talked:

“It looks like our energy won’t last for a year.”

“No way, who told us to activate Tang Long’s cells every three or five days to boost his metabolism. How could he support such intense training without doing this?”

“Haha, I think Tang Long is quite amazing. Staying in “Fear” for a month didn’t leave any sequelae.”

“Fortunately, if I hadn’t hypnotized him with consciousness every night, he would be crippled if he wasn’t crazy.”

“Don’t take credit. The remaining two months will be to strengthen his physical training and combat skills. The next few months will be strategy, battleship command and air combat skills.”

“That’s not enough, I also thought about a lot of things to give to him, such as what kind of mind control course, spy course…”

“Okay, do you want to turn him into a special forces soldier?”

“It’s not a special force, I want to train him to be an all-around soldier.”

If you didn’t look at the four robots standing still, if you just listened with your ears, you must have thought that a few very good friends were discussing something enthusiastically.

At this time, the robot that sent Tang Long back to the dormitory came out, and the four robots stopped discussing and all looked back at the robot.

“Needless to say, we acted according to the plan. Our only student can’t just be an ordinary soldier, we must strengthen his training in commanding the overall ability!” This robot is obviously the head of the five people, and he said this with his hands behind his back. When they were talking, the other four all had their legs together and saluted, “Yes!”
