The moment Chen Chen lost his eyes, the world in front of him did not fall into eternal darkness. Instead, he "saw" more things that were invisible to the naked eye!
After that, he used this new vision to trigger the subspace tide and easily strangled Zhao Shanhe on the spot!
However, after the strangulation, he saw a faint blood mist emerging from the place where Zhao Shanhe died. In the blood mist, Zhao Shanhe's remaining eye was wrapped up. Then, there was a hoarse roar coming from the blood mist.
"You're cheating, you can't not die like that, you're cheating!"
Chen Chen suddenly sneered when he saw this familiar scene. He made another move and prepared to launch another attack. However, the blood mist had already escaped from the subspace with a "swoosh" and escaped through the gap that connected reality to the subspace.
Chen Chen watched as his opponent fled, but he did not give chase. He only stared at his opponent with two bloody eye sockets, a thoughtful look on his face.
"Zhao Shanhe was killed by me..."
Chen Chen murmured. At this point, he had sorted out everything.
It turned out that Zhao Shanhe had already thought of a way out for himself. After he was hit by the antimeme left behind by Wang Xi, he could only temporarily suppress it with the Civilization Monolith. Under the suppression of the black slate, the antimeme "I Saw You" was suppressed to the point where it could not erupt. Zhao Shanhe could only endure the pain every day.
Therefore, in order to remove the curse of the antimeme, he finally decided to come to the dimension of Event Horizon to search for clues. However, before he came, he deliberately left four horror movies in the dimension key —
"Ju-on", "Final Destination", "One Missed Call", "Ring".
These were the most vicious memetic movies that Zhao Shanhe knew of, all for the sake of killing the next person who obtained the dimension key.
He instilled these four movies in the dimension key not only to harm others but also to benefit himself. This was because he had already thought of a way out. If he died in the dimension of Event Horizon, he would use the power of the Civilization Monolith to fuse with the antimeme, then return to reality and attach himself to the dimension key!
When the next person who obtained the dimension key opened the USB drive, they would naturally click on the four movies and be easily killed by the terrifying memes inside!
At that time, he would have the right to snatch the plane key again …
However, what he did not expect was that after he came to the Event Horizon dimension, he unexpectedly encountered Chen Chen. When he learned of Chen Chen's identity, he completely understood that he would die in this adventure!
However, Chen Chen had already recognized him at that time, so in order to lower Zhao Shanhe's guard, Chen Chen lied that he was also afflicted with the antimeme. This information immediately gave Zhao Shanhe a boost and the idea of turning the tables came to him.
Because he knew that the antimeme in Chen Chen was most likely him, which meant that he still had a chance to turn the tables!
Therefore, he carried out the entire plan without any hesitation. While carrying out the plan, he had another thought in mind, which was to kill Chen Chen in the subspace and change the course of history!
This was how he had betrayed Chen Chen just now.
After his body was destroyed, Zhao Shanhe immediately used the antimeme to escape back to reality, but at this time, he was extremely weak. After attaching himself to the dimension key, he completely fell into a deep sleep.
It was not until Chen Chen obtained the USB drive eighteen years later that he was awakened by a certain trigger...
So, everything that happened after that happened naturally.
As for Chen Chen's method of gouging out his eyes, it was not the first time he had done it.
As early as when he was trapped in the dream world, Chen Chen had done this. After all, gouging out eyes was the biggest clue in the plot of Event Horizon. In the movie, Dr. Will, who was seduced by the darkness and became a demon, said this after gouging out his eyes —
"The world I'm going to, I don't need eyes..."
In other words, organs such as eyes were not needed in the subspace. Only by gouging out both eyes could one see the truth of the subspace!
However, after all, Zhao Shanhe was only a mortal, so he did not dare to gouge out his eyes and hurt himself, so he could only use a needle and thread to stitch up his eyes. Chen Chen had nothing to fear. This body was the body of the Consciousness Stealer. Gouging out his eyes was nothing. Even if Zhao Shanhe cut his chest open, it would not cause much damage at all. The only damage was that the laser sword burned some pieces of his flesh.
Therefore, Zhao Shanhe could only sullenly lose his physical body and escape in the form of an antimeme.
"More than a decade ago, I personally ended your consciousness, but more than a decade later, I'm going to kill you again. The multiverse is full of wonders..."
Chen Chen shook his head. He understood that when Zhao Shanhe escaped, he was still looking forward to the next chance to make a comeback. Little did he know that what greeted him was a second time being killed by Chen Chen, and this time, even his consciousness could not escape!
At this time, the sharp pain in his eyes gradually subsided. Chen Chen opened his empty eyes like a malicious spirit and looked around. For the first time, he thoroughly observed this unknown world.
As far as his eyes could see, it was endless gray. Countless strange and indescribable particles twinkled in the air, but these were not stars.
This was not the solar system, not even the Milky Way. It did not belong to any corner of the universe. At the same time, at the same time, there was no air, no light. Space was chaotic, and even time was distorted.
The entire space was in a state of darkness and chaos. Endless chaos and distortion bloomed in every corner of the space. From time to time, one could see a gray bubble swelling above his head and then exploding instantly, triggering countless strange phenomena that could not be understood or observed at all.
This space was filled with all kinds of radio wave signals and radiation that had never been seen before. Endless strange fluctuations faintly eroded his consciousness. His rationality was slowly dissipating in this gray fog at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This was the price to pay for entering the subspace and seeing the truth. Chen Chen pondered. It was no wonder that the crew of the Event Horizon became hysterical and killed each other after entering the subspace.
Chen Chen stood in the void and looked around, then fixed his eyes on the place where he killed Zhao Shanhe. There, a pile of broken fragments of the black slate was suspended in the air, constantly repelling the gray fog of the subspace.
Seeing this, Chen Chen beckoned with one hand and summoned the debris over.
This black slate was amazing. Even if it was broken into pieces, it could still resist the erosion of the subspace and automatically fight against the subspace.
The moment Chen Chen came into contact with the black slate, an illusion of nothingness suddenly appeared in his mind —
On a desolate and primitive planet, a group of apes was living in the form of a tribe. This group of apes was still in the most primitive and ignorant period. They ate raw meat and drank blood, not even at the top of the food chain.
However, one day, a black slate slowly rose from the soil and floated above the territory of this group of apes.
When the apes saw this, it was as if they had seen a miracle. All of the tribes gathered together and bowed in worship of the black stone slab.
In the next moment, the black slate exploded with an invisible fluctuation. This fluctuation awakened the group of apes. The apes were startled and scattered in all directions, but they did not know that the seed of civilization had been injected into the depths of their consciousness through this fluctuation.
Soon, this group of apes began to learn how to use tools, drill wood to make fire, and began to learn how to farm...
Day after day, this group of apes gradually changed from walking on four limbs to walking on two. Their hands were freed and they were able to use various tools better. The dawn of civilization began to take root in their bodies...
Endless phantoms appeared in Chen Chen's mind. He seemed to have seen the era of the rise of mankind. He watched the apes gradually evolve into apeman and then into the human race. It was like a virus that spread to every corner of the planet.
In the end, mankind entered the space age. At this time, the phantoms finally came to an end because this represented the completion of the first stage of human civilization.
"So, this is the Civilization Monolith..."
When the phantoms in his mind completely disappeared, Chen Chen put away the fragments of the Civilization Monolith thoughtfully. He then took one last look at the endless subspace.
There were still many mysteries waiting to be solved, such as why Professor Wang Xi was here, what were those strange robots in human skin, and what was hidden in the depths of the subspace...
There were endless mysteries in the depths of the subspace, but these mysteries were not something that Chen Chen was qualified to explore at this time.
It was not Chen Chen alone who was qualified, but the entire human race. It was like how the evolution of civilization was not something that could be achieved by the efforts of a single person.
With this in mind, Chen Chen could feel the corrosion of the subspace becoming more and more severe. Without hesitation, he turned around and quickly entered the passage he came from...
It was the same feeling of being half-awake. When Chen Chen regained consciousness, he had already left the subspace and returned to the countercurrent between the subspace and reality. Even so, Chen Chen could still feel the erosion of the subspace tide, so he did not linger here and immediately flew toward the outside world.
However, just as he was about to leave the subspace countercurrent, he suddenly heard a low and strange buzzing sound coming from behind him.
Chen Chen frowned. He silently turned around and saw that the crashed plane had fallen apart. Endless gray fog billowed and the gap connecting to the subspace was rapidly expanding!
Inside the gap that was constantly being torn apart, an indescribable, indescribable, distorted object was coming at him with a momentum that could break through everything!
"Hum! Hum! Hum! "
A sound that was enough to shake the soul came at him. Chen Chen only felt an endless sense of danger, almost completely drowning his soul!
From what Chen Chen could feel, the unknown entity that was colliding with the spatial rift was thousands of times stronger than the Consciousness Stealer that Chen Chen had encountered before!
At this moment, Chen Chen flew toward the outside world in a frenzy and instantly got rid of the subspace countercurrent. When he left the subspace, Chen Chen's vision suddenly turned black and returned to darkness.
This was due to the change in the rules of the universe.
In the subspace, human vision was a burden. Instead, it was easier for the blind to see the essence of the world, but it was the opposite in the real world.
At this point, Chen Chen activated his Field to probe behind him with lingering fear, only to "see" that the black fog that was originally trapped by the reality anchor began to surge violently as if countless evil spirits were struggling and dancing in it!
"Run!"
This was the only thought left in Chen Chen's mind. He rushed to the reality anchor without hesitation, put away the instrument, and then went to the hiding place of X-112 to put away the storage device of X-112. After that, he did not care about the Black Knights and directly fled in the direction of Hawaii!
"Sir Commander?"
X-112's puzzled voice came from the headset. "Didn't you go in with Zhao Shanhe? Why did you come out alone and where are we going now? "
"Home."
Chen Chen squeezed out these two words from between his teeth and then said in a hoarse voice, "I can't see anything now, I can only fly with Field. If you get to Miami, remember to remind me..."
"Your eyes..."
Only then did X-112 notice that Chen Chen had lost his eyes. She understood that something must have happened in the black fog, but at this time, she did not ask about it, just faithfully acting as Chen Chen's navigation.
In the end, after Chen Chen poured out his Field energy like it was free, it only took Chen Chen more than half an hour to reach Miami. Then, he went back into the passage opened by the USB flash drive without thinking and returned to reality.
After returning, Chen Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He directly pulled out the USB flash drive from the computer and disconnected the connection between the two.
"Phew!"
Beside him, two Black Knights came over with a stretcher, helped Chen Chen to the stretcher, and began to treat the wounds on his chest and eyes.
At this time, the wound on his chest was about to heal. After all, at that time, most of Chen Chen's chest was cut open by the laser sword. The ultra-high temperature vaporized most of Chen Chen's chest muscles. If he was an ordinary person, he would probably die on the spot. Only this body could survive so easily.
Two white eyeballs began to grow in Chen Chen's eye sockets. This was because Chen Chen had actively suppressed the growth of his eyeballs in the subspace. If he had not suppressed it at that time, the injuries to his eyes would have healed by now.
However, the large number of injuries still made Chen Chen's body a lot weaker, but naturally, there were Black Knights to take care of this. Chen Chen only needed to rest.
"Collect all these fragments."
Suddenly, Chen Chen took out the fragments of the black slate and handed them to the Black Knight beside him. At the same time, he said, "Remember, this thing is very important. Not even a bit of powder can be lost."
"Understood."
X-112 replied, "But there are still two miniature reality anchors left in the Event Horizon dimension. Wouldn't it be a pity if we don't retrieve them?"
"Retrieve?"
Chen Chen shook his head. "There's no way to retrieve them. That dimension is doomed. Even if the mysterious civilization in the dimension of Doom comes, they won't be able to save it... That dimension is doomed."
Hearing Chen Chen's words, X-112 suddenly stopped talking.
"The subspace is more terrifying than I thought..."
Chen Chen sighed inwardly, but then he frowned. When he entered the subspace and even when he fought with Zhao Shanhe, he was clearly safe and sound. Instead, after he left, a great terror that could destroy the world immediately came. All of this was a bit too much of a coincidence.
Could it be...
Professor Wang Xi's face suddenly flashed in Chen Chen's mind. As for whether all of this was the work of Professor Wang Xi and what his purpose was, Chen Chen had no idea...
