[Item number: 009-2]

[Item level: Angel level]

[Researcher: Doctor %*#, @)*#, ▋▋▋▉, etc.]

[Precautions:

The research environment of 009-2 needs to be a clean and tidy open space, and all buildings that make up the space must have a regular and symmetrical pattern shape.

Researchers studying 009-2 need to wear special research suits printed with nested tetrahedral patterns. No researcher can enter within five meters of 009-2 without wearing camouflage protective clothing, nor can

Touch 009-2 with your hand.

009-2 will 'attract' everyone around it. No researcher should look directly at 009-2 with the naked eye. If you feel comfortable in the regular space you are in and have some desire for symmetry and order, please report it in time.

And leave the research area and return to the third floor.

009-2 will have a tendency to self-proliferate. If 009-2 is found to proliferate, the laser cannon needs to be immediately controlled to destroy the proliferated part. The intelligent master brain of the institute will monitor the situation of 009-2.]

[Item background:

009-2 and 009-1 were discovered together in a fragment of a fallen comet.

When 009-2 was first discovered, it was a 'concave' symmetrical building block about 10 centimeters long and 5 centimeters high. Its skin and structure showed wooden characteristics.

009-2 is hostile to all asymmetrical flesh-and-blood creatures around it. When an asymmetrical flesh-and-blood creature without camouflage approaches 009-2, its flesh and blood will be stripped directly by it, and new 'building blocks' will be created through unknown means.

The team that initially discovered 009-2 suffered heavy losses. Only a few mechanical modifiers with symmetrical mechanical prosthetics survived and brought 009-2 and 009-1 back.

009-2 and 009-1 were initially placed in the laboratory on the southern coast of the Federal District 3, and were later transferred to this research institute.]

[Experiment Record 1:

By placing 009-2 in an asymmetric environment, we found that 009-2 has a certain ability to reshape the environment and can reshape asymmetric parts of the inorganic environment into symmetrical structures.

This reshaping ability may become stronger as 009-2 strengthens, and walls within the scope of its power will be eliminated by its reshaping.

Being in an environment with symmetrical rules for a long time will make 009-2 stay quiet.]

[Experiment record 2:

009-2 will continue to have an impact on all flesh and blood life in the same space. If it is in the same environment as 009-2 for a long time, it will develop a fanatical preference for symmetrical items, regular items, and extremely regular order.

Some of the affected people will try to take off their disguises or touch 009-2 directly, hoping to be separated from their flesh and blood by 009-2 and become a part of 009-2.]

[Experiment Record 3:

Through the observation of 009-2, it is found that the lives affected by it show a certain degree of tranquility, and 009-2's ability can suppress monsters that are contaminated and tend to go crazy to a certain extent.

After experiments, it was found that the highest B-level crazy alien beasts or pollution monsters showed a certain state of 'lethargy', 'confusion' and 'quietness' after entering the 009-2 experimental area.

The 009-2 test area may be transformed into a place where high-level crazy monsters are detained.]

Next were some experimental records related to 009-2's treatment of pollution monsters. He Ao's eyes quickly scanned these experimental records and turned to the second half of the research record.

[Experiment record 9:

...

····(garbled code)······Maybe he does not have intelligence and communication skills.]

What followed was a large section of unreadable gibberish. He Ao continued to scroll down, and after about a page, new readable text appeared in his field of vision.

[Encrypted records, please verify ##￥ permissions]

[Permission@#￥verification successful, verifier@#￥]

[Encryption experiment record 1:

Through the investigation of special extraordinary researchers, it was confirmed that 009-1 and 009-2 come from two different 'life forms'.

009-2 may come from the legacy of an angel, 009-1 comes from...(garbled code)...

The calculation data of 009-2's proliferation through the main control brain shows that with enough flesh and blood, 009-2 may be able to reach B-level power and restore part of the power from the angel to a certain extent.]

[Encryption Experiment Record 2:

Through research on 009-2 and 009-1, it was found that 009-2's ability can inhibit 009-1's ability to a certain extent.

Place 009-2 and 009-1 in the same space at the same time, and according to the experimental conditions of 009-1, take a red ball and a blue ball and place them in two symmetrical left and right boxes respectively.

Seal the two boxes and wait ten minutes for all experimenters to evacuate.

After the experimenter returned, he cut open the box and inspected the inside of the box. The red ball was still in the box on the left, and the blue ball was still in the box on the right.

As a result, 009-1's ability has not taken effect.

Extending the experimental time and repeating the experiment shows that in a short period of time, 009-2 can suppress the ability of 009-1.

The passage of laboratory 009-1 can be placed below 009-2, so that it is in a special communication space, and 009-1 can be controlled through 009-2.]

Seeing this, He Ao raised his head and glanced at the center of the ring-shaped console, which was directly under the octahedron of building blocks. There was a closed gate there.

Then he withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the recorded text on the screen.

These records seem to intentionally avoid the capabilities of item number 009-1.

However, from the experimental content, we can actually infer some of 009-1's abilities.

In the experiment, two small balls, red and blue, were placed in two boxes respectively. The final experimental result was that the positions of the two small balls did not change, so the experimenter believed that 009-1's ability did not take effect.

So reverse reasoning, what should it be like if 009-1 takes effect? ​​The positions of the two balls have changed?

The red ball goes from the left box to the right box, and the blue ball goes from the right box to the left box?

Is this some kind of ability to move objects in space?

But why must two small balls participate in the experiment? Only two balls can fully demonstrate the ‘ability’ of 009-1?

The red ball goes from left to right, and the blue ball goes from right to left. How should this ability be described?

exchange?

At this moment, He Ao was stunned on the spot.

All thoughts at this moment are strung together by invisible lines.

I see.

He Ao lowered his head and continued to look at the research records in front of him.

At the bottom of the record, there is some text.

[Encryption Log 01:

The fragment numbered 001 arrived shortly after the installation of 009-2 and 009-1. The plan sent by the Federal Academy of Sciences showed that the power and personality of the fragment could be used to build a '#*￥' magic circle that could cover the entire institute.

Prevent 009-1 from losing control.]

Next are some simple experimental logs or observation logs, most of which are repeated in the previous experimental records. Overall, all logs show that the experiment is in a stable state.

He Ao quickly read these logs and continued to scroll down. In the last few logs of the entire research record, some different contents appeared.

[Encryption Log 77:

009-2 appears to be corrosive to machinery. Dr. ￥% suspects that 009-2 may affect the institute's main artificial intelligence. It is recommended that the main artificial intelligence be moved from the fourth floor to the third floor and that the laser on the fourth floor be moved.

Supreme control of weapons is transferred to the third level.

The institute is considering the feasibility of this option.]

[Encryption Log 78:

009-2 showed signs of abnormal activation, and some of the pollution monsters imprisoned on the fourth floor had mutilated limbs, but the main control computer did not give any prompts.

Dr. ￥% believes that the level of supervision of 009-2 should be increased and a new main control computer should be transported from the Federal Academy of Sciences.]

After the encrypted log 78, there is a piece of garbled code that takes up less than half of the page, and at the end of the garbled code, there are only some intermittent words that are barely identifiable.

[We]···[cheated]···[blocked]···[possessed]···[wisdom]···

While He Ao was staring at these garbled codes, the screen next to him that had been displaying the nested tetrahedron pattern suddenly flickered, and then, some text quickly appeared on the screen.

The characters were like rollers, constantly changing their glyphs, from the characters in the first area to the characters in what seemed to be the fifth area, and finally, these characters were fixed to the characters in the second area.

[Hello]

The white words are suspended on those regular tetrahedron patterns.

[Welcome to the ‘fourth floor’]

[No one has been here for a long time.]

"Are you, 009-2?"

He Ao looked at the words and asked in a low voice in the language of the second district.

The text on the screen quickly began to change.

[Names are just codes for distinguishing intelligent creatures from each other]

[If you must have a code name to call me]

[I prefer the name 'Carpenter'.]
