be honest.

Although he is very clear that his limbs and torso have consciousness after transforming into a mecha.

But in the past few days, Gu Wei had not really communicated with them many times, just twice in total:

The first time was when he transformed into the Wrath of Fisherman for the first time. His limbs and torso babbled a lot of dirty words, among which the ones that left the deepest impression on Gu Wei were [Star Node] and [You've been stained with booger].

The second time was when Gu Wei completed the transformation experiment in front of Milo Jin. Zuo Shou said that he didn't want to talk to that old woman Jin. Considering that he might be angered and then be adjusted, Gu Wei never dared to tell Jin about it.
Aside from those two times, the mecha limbs never spoke another word.

Although Gu Wei tried to chat with them more than once, neither the dark and cold left hand nor the easily-defended right hand responded to Gu Wei.

The result was unexpected.

When facing this pool of liquid, the right hand actually made a sound on its own initiative - and it seemed that the emotional fluctuations were quite big.

See this situation.

Gu Wei quickly made a hushing gesture to Milo and Jin beside him, and waved his hands to indicate that the mecha's limbs had responded.

Milo and Jin immediately nodded in understanding.

Then Gu Wei adjusted his mindset and asked his right hand with his mind: "Right hand, do you recognize this thing?"

[Of course I know her]

A wave of fluctuations soon came from the right hand:
[But it should have been suppressed to the state of 'nothingness' long ago]

Suppression?

A state of nothingness?
Gu Wei keenly caught the two key words in his right hand: "It seems that this thing is indeed related to you? So what is its origin?"

This time the right hand was silent.

Gu Wei: “.”

"I think you guys are going too far," he took a deep breath and clenched his fists.
"First, that Twilight Trigger made me like this, and now we're all in the same boat and they're playing Riddler with me - when I want to talk, I talk a lot, and when I don't want to talk, I just pretend to be dead and don't reply."

"I never expect to be your master or command you in battle, but at least now we are obviously in a cooperative state. You treat your friendly forces like this? - So you learned the alliance skills from the bald logistics guy, right?"

To the end.

There was already some emotion in Gu Wei's words.

To be fair.

He is not a person with a fragile spirit - since he traveled through time, he has actively and passively absorbed a lot of things, and he doesn't even have much resentment towards the Fisherman's Wrath and Twilight Trigger.

In a sense, his performance is enough to be called a big heart.

What really bothered Gu Wei was the cold attitude of the mecha limbs.

Just like he said.

At present, it is obvious that the two sides are cooperating in a delicate relationship. There is no leader in terms of position, but neither can do without the other.

Gu Wei controls most of the transformation rights - except for the first time, he has never transformed unwillingly, and the mecha limbs understand the Fisherman's Wrath much better than he does.

This situation is like two groups of people forced to pair up on a baseball field, one playing in the backcourt and the other playing in the frontcourt. The game cannot be played without either of them.

Currently, Gu Wei is a forward. The midfield occasionally passes him a few good balls, but once he ran into an open space, the opponent ignored him. At this time, Gu Wei naturally had some pressure.

True.

Judging from past conversations, these body awareness seems a bit immature, and some actions even seem like those of a minor.

But this is not a reason for the other party to appear and disappear at will.

In fact, he had been planning to communicate with his body some time ago, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come so suddenly and reasonably.

Of course, this kind of thing must not be told to the mecha limbs.

"."

After Gu Wei spoke, the mecha limbs remained silent for a while.

Just when he thought his negotiations were about to fail.

boo~
Suddenly, a new idea came to my mind:

It's the Eraser

Gu Wei was stunned.

Then he quickly realized that the one who sent this thought was not the right hand that pretended to be dead, but
The cold left hand that I haven't touched for a long time.

Gu Wei's thoughts quickly turned several times. Putting aside the content transmitted by his left hand, just from its response, it was enough to judge a lot of important information:
First of all, as shown before, the "status" of the left hand should be the highest in the combination of limbs and torso, or at least one of the leaders.

The second is
The mecha limb agreed to communicate with itself.

So Gu Wei quickly suppressed his excitement and asked his left hand as calmly as possible: "Eraser? So it is a kind of life?"

【Yes and no】

The thought of the left hand came again without any fluctuations:
[You can think of it as an existence similar to an alien life form, which also comes from the high tower space, so it has the characteristic of being untouchable]

[But Erasers are much rarer in number and more harmful, or more 'efficient']

Gu Wei: “.”

I'm a fool.

Another thing from the tower?
No, is your universe so dangerous?

It’s bad enough that there’s an alien life form that can cause cold silence, but now there’s an even more dangerous Eraser?
Why don't we tell Brother Universe to destroy it directly?
Then Gu Wei paused and continued to ask: "What harm does it have?"

This time, the left hand was silent for a long time before replying:

[The Eraser will modify the Planck-scale vacuum fluctuation pattern of the space-time region where the target life is located, and implant a self-referential logic vortex in the two-dimensional information boundary layer of the universe. This vortex will continue to decouple the superconducting correlation between the quantum state of the life body and the environment, causing the decoherence framework branch on which it depends to be directed truncate]

[Then the life body will begin to experience time-space slice dislocation, the quantum tunneling effect of neuronal synapses will be replaced by a pseudo-random number generation algorithm, and the quantum bits stored in the memory will gradually be transformed into redundant loops of closed time-like curves. Eventually, the life body will be like living in a self-consistent bubble membrane, and the information entropy generated by all its behaviors will be directed into the imaginary time axis and dissipated.]

[When the underlying quantum information is erased beyond the Bekenstein limit, the eraser will gain a large amount of energy, and the life it has modified will also be formatted]

Gu Wei: “.”

Although he was still in the mecha body, he felt inexplicably cold all over.

True.

There were some concepts in the message sent by Zuoshou that he could not fully understand, but it did not prevent him from understanding the meaning of the entire content:
The Eraser is like some kind of cosmic background program, secretly rewriting the quantum code of life, making it live in a delayed replication illusion world - then the real information is gradually deleted, the illusion becomes contradictory due to the lack of data, and finally collapses completely along with the carrier, and the victim dies without knowing the truth. What's even more terrifying is.
He had just witnessed this process in action not long ago.

The location is at the entrance of this spaceship, and the object that was erased is called the Burning Crusade Exploration Team.

No wonder.
No wonder there is no living thing on the entire spacecraft.

No wonder Jokowi "sees" scenes that never happened.

No wonder the video Jin found was invalid rather than deleted.
Because all the "information" was erased by the Eraser, only an empty shell of the spacecraft was left.

"."

Then Gu Wei forced himself to calm down. Although the reasons for the disappearance of Qiao Kewen and others had been answered, there were still many unsolved mysteries in the whole incident.

Then Gu Wei looked at the small water ball in front of him and asked Zuo Shou: "I have a few more questions. First of all, according to what you said, after erasing the life information, the Eraser should take those lives to a closed independent world, right? Then why can Qiao Kewen still contact the captain and others?"

"Also, why didn't the Eraser run away after dealing with Jokovin and the others? Why did he stay on the ship and wait for us to come?"

The left hand was silent for a moment: [Because it is in a broken state, it lacks energy]

"energy?"

Gu Wei was slightly stunned, and then he guessed something: "You mean that after it erased Qiao Kewen's information, the remaining energy was not enough to build a perfect closed world, so it could only deceive Qiao Kewen while completing the transaction with the captain, and continue its own 'digestion' after we left?"

"Once it's digested, we can move on to the next big thing?"

[Yes, it shut down the communication and chose the Blue Bridge Galaxy for this reason, but it probably didn't expect that someone would chase after it.]

Although no emotion could be heard from the left hand's thoughts, Gu Wei could still clearly feel a very subtle emotion, similar to being a little speechless.

The meaning of the left hand is actually very clear:

The Eraser ran out of energy after devouring Jokoven and others, so it temporarily shut down communications and found the Blue Bridge Galaxy, a place where it could stay for thirty days without being disturbed by anyone, to digest its food - that's why Alele couldn't contact Jokoven.

Wait until the ticket expires.

The Eraser can easily hide his own existence by controlling the spacecraft to simulate a crash.

It can even attach itself to the patrol fleet that comes to check the situation, and choose the opportunity to devour the next one or the next group of targets.

The result was unexpected.

The Eraser Project was going well, but Milo came to negotiate a deal.
The remaining energy of the Eraser was not enough to block the communication between the two parties at this distance, so they could only bite the bullet and carry out the previous scene.

When Milo and his group entered the main control room, it was naturally exposed to everyone's view.

to be frank.

This situation is also common on Earth, especially in nature.

For example, before Gu Wei traveled through time, he had seen many news reports about pythons that became unable to move after swallowing animals or even humans, and finally watched themselves being captured and dissected.

The Eraser is like a python that has swallowed a large amount of food. As long as it digests the food, that is, the people of the Burning Crusade Exploration Team, it will have a bright future after getting through this dangerous period.

But during this high-risk period, the Flutter Flutter came up with a grunt.
more importantly.

Among those who entered the main control room, there happened to be Gu Wei, who could touch it.

Arrested on the spot.JPG.

Then Gu Wei looked at the small water ball in front of him again and asked Zuoshou, "Zuoshou, what is the relationship between the Eraser and you, or the Fisherman's Wrath? How did it get out?"

Whether it was the word [suppression] that the right hand blurted out before, or the Eraser's performance of curling up into a ball when encountering the wrath of the fisherman, it was enough to show that there was some extremely special relationship between the two.

This time, Zuoshou answered quickly:

[It, the relationship is actually quite complicated]

[In simple terms, we are the caretakers of the Eraser, and we are part of the process of ‘clearing’ it.]

[Based on the current situation, it seems to have escaped from the restraint well we are responsible for and sneaked onto this spacecraft]

[But the mission we are responsible for ended a long time ago. In theory, even if there is a loss of position, the Eraser should not escape from the confinement well where we are.]

Caretaker?
Gu Wei's eyes suddenly fixed, he understood what Zuo Shou meant: "Is it possible that this thing escaped from some other restraint well? And we just happened to see it?"

[Theoretically possible, but the actual probability is infinitely close to 0]

For the first time, the left hand's reply carried some emotion:
[The definition scale involved in the constraint well is completely different from the conventional distance framework. It is almost impossible for an eraser who escapes from another constraint well to intersect with you and me.]

"Uh" Gu Wei thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that something leaked when you were carried out of the laboratory?"

[This is even more impossible]

This time, it was the right hand that answered Gu Wei:

[The confinement well we are guarding is not limited to a certain point in reality. Let alone leaving the laboratory, even if the entire planet is shattered by a black hole, it is impossible for the Eraser to escape - there must be another reason behind this]

"Well then," Gu Wei shrugged. He could only brainstorm on this matter. "By the way, who asked you to guard that thing?"

The left hand was silent for a while:

【No comment】

Gu Wei: “?”

As if guessing Gu Wei's emotions, before he could speak, his left hand added a thought:
[Your current state has touched upon a certain special realm. The power of the 'information' in this realm will be amplified countless times. Therefore, it is for your own good that some information is not disclosed to you - unless you want to see your head explode into bloody fireworks that are forbidden for 18s.]

Gu Wei: “.”

"Okay, you're awesome," Gu Wei said after a while. "I accept your explanation. I have one last question - how do we deal with this Eraser?"

Left hand: [extend your right hand (bold) to hold it, then plug it into the pump]

Right hand: [%￥#&*My name is Feng Gefu]

Seeing this, Gu Wei looked at the right hand of the mecha, suppressed the urge to switch to his left hand, grabbed the small ball of water, and stuffed it into the water pump cannon.

call out--

As soon as the water mass entered the cannon.

The muzzle generated a huge suction force, completely sucking the water mass in.

at the same time.

Gu Wei suddenly felt dizzy.

When he came to his senses, he had turned back into a human form.
