The Ring B 20-33
by Skylar Ang Once upon a time, The Ring was the only place where humanity and Trisolaris truly agreed on the existence of an independent dark forest civilization. “Why are you there?” “I was hoping you would be there. I’d rather have you than Trisolaris. They’re both dead, of course, but I still feel that you are more dangerous to Trisolaris than the Wallfacer.” The guards turned back at the door. AA and Cheng Xin were at the exit when the Ring arrived at the door. It was a small opening, with several labels carved into it. All the doors had markings that indicate where they might be taken, to be used by the Ring.
“I need those things. I will never be able to use them in peace.”
The door slid open and the Ring entered the chamber. Cheng Xin and AA looked up at its presence. The chamber was filled with multiple labels and information windows. The walls were all metal. The empty space was very similar to the porthole’s empty design.
The Ring carefully collected Cheng Xin’s hair. She had long hair that was short and pointed, and her long hair was combed by bright embraces. Cheng Xin was particularly interested: It was impossible for the Ring to hear her, and she could not even feel its presence. The Ring moved slowly inside the chamber, almost as if it was concentrating.
“What are you doing?” Cheng Xin asked softly. She was now aware that the Ring was moving slowly inside the chamber. The door remained open, but the Ring moved in two directions. “This is a small chamber. Only one can be opened at a time.” The door remained closed, and the door remained open. The door remained open, but the Ring moved in two directions.
The chamber resembled the entire interior of an execution room. The walls were all metal, and the walls were filled with information windows. The doors, which had been made of transparent glass, emitted electromagnetic signals, which were clearly visible.
“Those who survive the attack will survive. Those who survive will be blessed.”
Cheng Xin was slightly taken aback by this description. She had thought that the Ring was a monotheistic religion; yet, in reality, the three of them were blessed. They were in a small room with only one door, and the only way out was to turn the other side and enter the chamber one by one.
The door remained closed, and the door remained closed. The door remained open, but the Ring moved in two directions. “There’s one more thing.” The door remained open for a second time. The door remained open, and the Ring moved in two directions. The door remained closed, but the Ring moved out. Two guards entered the chamber one by one. The door remained open, and the door remained closed. The door remained closed. The guards were very quiet. “Wait a minute.” The door remained closed.
Cheng Xin and AA continued to wait. After the door remained closed, the Ring entered the chamber one by one with a soundproofing system. It was difficult to tell exactly how much was inside because the walls were made of transparent material, but the door remained open. The soundproofing made some scratches on the walls easier to identify. The room was very quiet. The only sound was when someone spoke.
“We need to confirm that the IDENTIFIED MUSEUM has not been destroyed,” said the Ring.
“I don’t know if that’s right, but it’s really quiet. I’m really glad to see you. Cheng Xin, you’re the only Ring member left.”
“Thank you. Thank you.”
The Ring turned on the sound in the room. The walls were filled with information windows that showed the approximate location of each member’s body. The walls were filled with information windows that show the positions of the members’ bodies in the room, as well as the location of the monument.
