Novella - COMPUTER Novella.
COMPUTER NOVELLA I opened my eyes. Through a small barred opening near the ceiling barely penetrated the dim light. Severely ill bruise on his head. Chain of thoughts was interrupted one another: Where am I? .. In a strange, distant, God-forsaken planet. Without friends, without food, without weapons, without any hope of saving ... Earth ... How terribly far it from me. A ship? .. Oh, my ship, He is quite broken. Those damn robots before anything will not stop if they are not stop. But who will? I? He who will die here in a few days. Those who are now more than ever necessary assistance. Need to concentrate. So that do we have? ... In the twilight I could see only a metal object and a small puddle of a caustic substance that somehow dripped from the ceiling directly on this subject, burning spray my bare feet. Coming closer, I realized what a joke played by fate with me: it is was an ordinary aluminum plate, What is usually the use of prisoners. K Moreover, the liquid dripping from the ceiling, turned out to be nothing more than a caustic alkali, which neither the fact that drinking in the same room for a long time is not desirable. Die of starvation I do not want to. I decided to look around closely, but apart from the bare stone walls around and sandy soil underfoot, no found ... Tested the soil - wet. Mean somewhere at the bottom you can find water! I started furiously to dig the ground with hands, but after a few minutes of this work realized that his hands poorly suited for this - just in the blood not erased. Yeah, and it is on that? Taking the plate, things have gone faster. In a short time on an iron plate shvarknula hatch, which was hidden in the ground. Luke badly rusted, seen them a long time nobody used. All attempts to open it were in vain. I raised my eyes to the ceiling, and suddenly felt dizzy. Full of mind came to me in a telepathic contact. I was persuaded to do so dig under the wall of course. I was digging, resting and again dug. I thought that was about seem lower edge of the wall, but it went deeper and deeper. Desperate, I returned to the hatchway and struggles pulled an iron ring ... To my surprise, there was something snapped, and the door fell with a crash down from just a breath of freshness and coolness. Not hesitation, I immediately climbed down the dark track. And here I am at liberty! Thickly overgrown with weeds course, was hardly visible outside. I looked around. Around extended boundless desert. Alien "Sun" thick naredkost generously. Very thirsty, and I decided to find the hollows, and try to get a little water. But after more than two hours of realized that water is not razzhiveshsya. But my efforts have not been absolutely nothing. In the sand I found a note izmusolennuyu with obscure hieroglyphs and signs. Suddenly in my head was some fog, and I noticed that I was starting to understand this complex, like nothing on earth intricate text. It spoke of the startup password of a spacecraft. Nothing found more in the sand, I went to the south, focusing on Oragonu, since it is there could be seen glimpses of life ... My expectations were met. There I found everything about what can only dream man in my position. These were: toxic cactus pile of charred corpses and smelly acid lake. Around the grove of cactus yawned a deep cave, go down into that without some equipment would be not reasonable. Going a little further, I am buried in the unusual trading shop, realizing the exchange of any utensils. Trader - I looked at mine on their minds, ugly face, and as if reading my thoughts, he immediately offered me a small folding portable ladder, but only in exchange for any thing. I looked at his plate, then on its stairs, shook his head and promised that he will be back soon. Dish can I still come in handy, but look for something in the organic remains will not interfere ... On the square, more than ten square meters. m of the things I think most survived, I still quite liked the new laser blaster, but he has been discharged battery. If we can somehow charge it, then I'll be presenting some threat to his enemies and be able to defend themselves in the end. On the way back, I saw again recently found a note and decided to swap the stairs. But barely taking note in hand, she immediately crumbles to dust. Insidious star - Oragon made the black business ... Inventing a small trick, I still managed to get ladder, betraying the ill-fated moneychanger, who become angry and closed shop and fled in his jalopy into the center of the new commodity. I tried to get to the shop but I did not succeed. Although, on the southern wall to my attention attracted very suspicious hole ... I did not let the idea to explore found the cave. Now, with a staircase my ability to have doubled. First thing I went into the cave and found some items to work with active substances. With their help I was able to charge Blaster and then go to storm shop. But, to my regret, the shop was too well fortified. Here have more powerful weapons. But the hole pripodnesla me an unexpected surprise: in the middle huge shop was an old electroplating reactor, which required a small repair and filling of the new actuator. Acid I found pretty soon, the benefit of its there was even a dime a dozen. Poured into the reactor and including a large cutout on the wall. There was a terrible roar and gnash. Curl numerous gears and rollers. But a minute later all was quiet ... Mighty mechanism to make some global invisible work and stood up, fidgeting with steel Cable on the rusty pulley. Maybe I did something wrong? However, I had no choice but to search for yourself a more useful occupation ... Overall I am more and more often dikovennye different things. Oh, these guys would have seen rare samples of extraterrestrial Flora and fauna: those that are unknown to science, big beautiful butterfly, these gorgeous flowering plants tubular, these acid, all shades of iridescent rainbow corals. Yes ... Bring at least some of them to Earth - it would be a real contribution to the development of our future Science. But where to get the spaceship? .. Next I cut the road abyss, on the edges of which rises huge, three-girth trees. Climb trees and found nothing, I saw the same trees on the other side of the abyss. But here's how to get there, a mystery. Seeking a way out of impasse I had to go back to the north ... Interesting thing - the tower, which I bricked up, stands in the middle of the desert. Even if I manage to get out her around some places impassable. Who could have come up with this torture of prisoners? One thing is true, it was clearly not a humanoid ... Poisonous cacti I have to touch with bare hands did not, because I knew: a shot of their deadly. But the lake has overcome quickly - helped knowledge of chemistry. Having found an ax, I already knew - where it can be successfully applied. Cacti - a key to the rescue! But there it was. As soon as I started to cut the cacti, like some vile slug crawled of them, neatly caught my ax ... corroded it - only cracklings spat in my direction. It is evident the owner did not like uninvited guests. Oh well, Come get in the bank my friend - I thought of iron door into the hangar. And here is just had to use a blaster, so as ax me no more. Although this was the best option. As I just do not know? Goodbye forever green cacti ... In the hangar I found the e-mail key and ship fuel - small box with the radioactive ore. Still before my eyes is this half-rotten mutilated corpse of a humanoid, sprawled on the floor of the hangar. Passing through the corridor through a grove of cactus, I found myself in front the door closed. Where are you, my friend, acid slug? Search now wind desert ... Poor slug was so frightened that Now is not soon return to live back in his grove. But help is not required ... The door was so rotten inside, which fell from a small jolt. I walked into the doorway. Wow! My gaze appeared huge stone button. Such a machine and do not push. But my fears were not confirmed - in the northern part of the wall slid a huge granite block. And she awaited moment of joy! I went to an old abandoned spaceport with standing, though only, but the whole space cruiser! Seems to fly from planet to me It was still early, because I still do not would be able to run it without knowing the password. Perhaps, this ship is a kind of trap, especially left Here robots. Could not they do not notice it and just give to the remaining living humanoids. No one can leave planet. Robots keep everything under control ... A little thought, I decided to penetrate to the old base, located east of the spaceport. On the basis I did not like. I almost did not stay there forever. Iron ax, and something about the password - that's all I managed to get. But I do not despair. Ax - it is a means by which I could hack his way into space ... And so it happened. I soon found wooden flooring and with a rope finally overcame the bottomless abyss. Then cut the cage, cut the door and knocked tree. And now I'm racing in his cruiser home to his native land! Few critics. A few years later was written this great game. It is as would attempt to write in programming and the brainchild of famous game "REVOLT". The author himself would probably be wondering what his game found a second life in the "ORAGONe". This story does not accidentally reveal some Secrets in the game. There are so many that it does not Mass beauty of its logical entity. The game just teeming with puzzles and is designed, of course, fans of the genre adventyurnogo and enthusiasts are able to foresee the course of events. Do not mistake to who do nothing. And it all started with the correct software "paradoxes" which are necessarily present in all games. This was done primarily for yourself, and maybe not.
