Chapter 22 Tyrant
Chang Sunyao walked out of Starbucks and pressed the car key. An electric car parked at the end of the street turned on its lights, drove out of the parking space and arrived in front of the coffee shop.
Automatic parking technology has only been allowed by law to be installed on certain types of vehicles in recent years.
"Get in the car."
Chang Sun Yao opened the door and got into the driver's seat, while Li Sheng sat in the back seat, fastened his seat belt, and whispered: "I'm still Thought you would disappear suddenly, like last time.”
"That's my personal skill. When players release skills, they will consume resources such as spiritual power. If you are not in a hurry, it is better to use ordinary transportation."
Chang Sunyao put on her seat belt and explained casually : "In addition, using supernatural power on the real earth will accelerate the expansion of the rift. You should know what the rift is, right?"
"Yes."
Li Sheng nodded and said: "Killing Field The experimental subjects in it will fall into the real world through the cracks and cause disasters."
"Yes. According to the Global Supernatural Alliance, supernatural forces are similar to the use of chlorofluorocarbons in the ozone hole crisis. The more people there are, the blurr the boundary between reality and the killing field, and the more frequent abnormal events become.”
Changsun Yao curled her lips and said: "Everyone didn't know this rule before and abused their extraordinary power, causing the cracks to flood.
Four years ago, a Category 5 hurricane broke out in the United States, sweeping through the eastern states and leaving millions of people homeless. , thousands of people died.
This is the official statement. In fact, a rift incident occurred, and a dragon-shaped god escaped from the killing field.
The killing field had only been opened for half a year. , the player level is not high and cannot be defeated at all. The nuclear missiles launched by the military will be destroyed by the hurricane and lightning around the god.
In the end, a local American player flew a fighter plane and dropped the nuclear bomb at close range. On the face of the god of evil, combined with the dragon-breaking skill scroll, he was blown back into the crack and exiled back to the killing field
That dragon-shaped god was named Tianjin Disaster because of its fairy-like appearance with white wings and golden dragon horns. ”
“Taken from the Lanlong in Monster Hunter? Li Sheng said: "It's quite two-dimensional." "
"The script tasks issued by Killing Fields occasionally overlap with real-world literary and artistic works, such as games, animations, comics, and novels. In order to improve their survival rate, players usually have to study various literary and artistic works. "
Changsun Yao said: "In addition to the Tianjin soil disaster incident, the poison gas leak incident in Busan, South Korea three and a half years ago, the murderous ghost incident in London's foggy night three years ago, and the underground rat man incident in New York are all also... Crimson warning level disaster. A little carelessness can overturn a city.
The real world has a carbon footprint, and we players also have a 'supernatural element footprint'. Abuse of power is equivalent to the public enemy of all mankind, and can be punished by the death penalty.
Therefore, even the top powerful people who can ignore the laws of the world rarely release their power on the earth-for their own interests. "
Everyone has a responsibility to protect the environment. This is very reasonable.
The vehicle passed through the streets of the busy city. Li Sheng thought about it and asked again: "Why take me for free? I thought guild leaders were busy. ”
“Three reasons. First, I am quite bored now, and I am also idle when I am idle.
Two, I am a broker, and one of the professional rules of a broker is to treat everyone as a potential customer. Especially in an environment like a killing field where anything is possible. Maybe the good deeds left behind one day will be life-saving straw in the future. ”
Changsun Yao drove the vehicle along the navigation map and said calmly: "Three, you are very interesting."
"Interesting?" Li Sheng raised his eyebrows lightly.
“The criterion for selecting players in Killing Fields is that individuals have characteristics that are more outstanding than the vast majority of the same kind.”
Chang Sun Yao said: “You are much better than ordinary people. Logically speaking , you should have been selected by the killing field long before encountering the mutation.
And, after being infected by the Lord of Insects and possessing extraordinary power, you are more qualified to be selected and become a player. . But neither.
Such an example cannot be considered unique, but it can also be said to be rare enough. So I think you're interesting. "
Is this a compliment?
Li Sheng smiled helplessly in his heart and looked out the window.
One month, and he only has one month left to live.< br>
Before this, Li Sheng rarely considered matters related to life and death. Even if he learned that he was infected by the Lord of Insects, he was optimistic and actively looking for a way to rescue him
It was only now, with the cold deadline of life before him, that he suddenly felt a heavy and unreal feeling.
“We’re here.”
Chang Sun Yao stopped the car, and in front of him was the towering Yinshi branch building of Prometheus Laboratory Company.
It was late at night, and there were no security patrols outside the building. Instead, there were two bipedal robots that were nearly three meters tall.
It uses anti-joint feet, with retractable roller skates underneath the wide soles. Police stun guns and high-pressure water cannons are installed on the left and right arms. The body is covered with a layer of black bulletproof fiber.
The overall shape resembles the ED-209 robot in the old movie "RoboCop". And its name is indeed ED-209 - Prometheus bought the modeling rights directly from the film company and used it as a security robot.
Speaking of security, in fact, as long as the stun guns and high-pressure water cannons on the left and right hands are replaced with machine guns and flamethrowers, they can immediately perform battlefield tasks.
Li Sheng followed Changsun Yao and walked into the lobby. Someone who knew her immediately came up to greet her warmly. After understanding the situation, he took the two of them to the elevator and headed to the high-rise building.
The two were led to a reception room with elegant environment and luxurious decoration.
Several waiters in suits set up the tea sets and made a pot of tea. Changsun Yao lay calmly on the sofa and drank the tea as casually as milk tea. After a while, a blond man with blue eyes and a middle-aged professor walked into the reception room.
"Good evening, both of you. This is Auguste Perez, the security director of the Prometheus branch."
The Abominable Infected Body appeared in the canal that night The blond man beside him introduced himself in standard Chinese: "It's a little late, otherwise our boss would have given a banquet if Miss Changsun came to visit.
Oh, yes, this is my friend Delhi G. Acheson, Research Director of Gen-Sys Biotechnology Yinshi Branch"
"I just happened to come to Prometheus to discuss a business project, I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."
The middle-aged professor smiled elegantly and said, "Miss Changsun, long time no see. What do you call the gentleman next to you?"
He turned his attention to Li Sheng, who thought for a while and said calmly: "Call me荍蜉.”
“Taken from the 荍蜉蜉树? It’s like we players are fighting for our own survival when faced with the constant pressure of the killing field.”
Derek was quite familiar with Chinese culture and nodded approvingly.
Actually, Li Sheng didn't think so much, but the first gene he absorbed came from ants, and the second gene he absorbed came from mantises.
The meaning of these two words is almost the same, and both have a sense of absurd, Quixotic fate.
Security director August sat opposite. After understanding the situation, he crossed his hands on the table and said seriously: "Well, Mr. Pei Fei, let's discuss business.
First of all To be clear, the infection of all gods is very troublesome, but the infection of the Insect Lord is not limited to a certain part, but penetrates into the DNA of all cells in the body, including the human brain. Cells
As time goes by, they continue to rewrite the genome of the whole body until they become complete monsters
This situation is difficult for any guild to solve, including the Special Affairs Bureau and the Global Supernatural Alliance.
We at Prometheus have three solutions for this.
One, we extract your brain and put it into the latest humanoid robot.
Your appearance will be no different from ordinary people, and because your brain is always soaked in gene inhibitors, your human life span will be extended from one month to six months. The plan sells for 30,000 points of killing currency, which is about 300 million yuan converted into RMB. ”
The exchange rate between the killing market currency and the RMB is about one to ten thousand. If the market is tight, the exchange rate will rise.
"The second option is a little cheaper, only 40 million. We extract your brain and put it in a nutrient tank, which can be connected to the network through cables. The lifespan is still six months, but the disadvantage is that you can't survive in humans. A normal life in society."
"The third option is that we give you money."
August rubbed his palms and said seriously: "Prometheus Company, yes. The high-stage Bug Lord infection is very interesting. If you are willing, you can join our research project or sell the mutated corpse to us after death. Prometheus is willing to pay 60 million to purchase it."
Discussing how much the corpse could be sold for while still alive is magical from any angle.
Li Sheng thought for a while and asked calmly: "What will you do with the mutated corpse?"
August said honestly: "Made into defense robots. Similar to the tyrants in "Resident Evil"."
"Is this legal?"
"As long as you sign and agree to donate "Book."
August said: "Prometheus is a scientific research company, and it does not violate the law to use corpses for scientific research."
The other party's sincere attitude made Li. Sheng inexplicably remembered the job advertisement he saw online some time ago - the job was in Sweden, the Nordic country, and he was busy five hours a day, with a monthly salary of 60,000 yuan, five insurances, one housing fund, and free housing for employees. The company also helped find a partner.
The only thing you need to be careful about is that you need to transfer to Northern Myanmar before flying into Sweden.
Where are you spending your time?
