Chapter 162 Night City

The surrounding space became muddy, and only dark thick slurry could be seen surging.

The smell wandering between the nose gradually changed from the fishy smell of soil to the stench of rotting corpses, which made people feel unpleasant.

There seemed to be something terrifying lurking in the muddy surroundings. Sensing Xu Yuan's presence, it was rapidly approaching.

Feeling this, Xu Yuan's eyes turned cold, and he was about to give this thing a hard time.

But at this moment, he felt that Qu Qiaoqiao, who was pulling him, suddenly pulled himself out of the dark mud.

Pfft!

With a strange noise that made the scalp tingle, Xu Yuan got out from the ground.

He found himself in a narrow, dirty alley.

On both sides of the alley are high-rise buildings, and the walls of the high-rise buildings are covered with various metal pipes.

Several pipes appear to have been damaged due to disrepair.

The slender white steam spewed from it, making the foul-smelling air in the alley moist and warm, making people even more unpleasant.

The warm air was like a rotting palm, stroking gently on the skin.

Disgusting stench, just like substance.

Constantly invade the human spirit.

"Boss, be careful. The air in this place also contains toxins. If you absorb it, it will pollute your soul."

When Xu Yuan was perceiving everything around him, Qu Qiaoqiao's voice came over.

Xu Yuan turned his head to look, and found that she had already put on a gas mask on her face at this time, and handed him another gas mask.

"Bring this one can effectively isolate toxins in the air."

"..."

Speechlessly looking at the black blood and unknown viscous liquid on the gas mask, Xu Yuan waved his hands.

"I can still bear this toxin, and I don't need a mask."

The breath of life and death in the awakening of the lungs can effectively purify the toxins in the air.

For him, except for the smell of the air, which is indescribable, harm or something really doesn't exist.

"Really not?"

After taking a serious look at Xu Yuan and confirming that he was not poisoned, Qu Qiaoqiao nodded, lamenting in her heart that her boss is a pure monster.

In the world of the third layer of the dark side, the negative factors contained in the environment already have a strange lethality that corrodes the red-clothed level.

But his own boss can breathe freely like no one here.

It's really a ghost, and a ghost.

Qu Qiaoqiao once doubted which of them was the real ghost.

"Then let's go. Night City is very lively. There are many special shops and special products. The mechanic comes back almost every day. Let's go and watch him. We will definitely see him."

Looking up at the colorful lights at the end of the alley, Qu Qiaoqiao said to Xu Yuan.

"It looks like you know him well."

Seeing her performance, Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

He found that the uninvited architect seemed to be using his own secrets.

"When I was doing engineering construction before, there was a period of cooperation. I have a certain understanding of this guy who is addicted to ghost machine manufacturing."

Nodding her head, Qu Qiaoqiao didn't hide anything, she said everything she knew.

"Then do you think he will go with me?" Xu Yuan asked.

"of course not."

Qu Qiaoqiao shook her head and gave Xu Yuan a thumbs up.

"However, with the strength of the boss, even if he is kidnapped, he can be kidnapped!"

"..."

The co-author asked him to kidnap the ticket?
Xu Yuan smiled wryly, shook his head, and sighed.

"Okay, let's go."

In order to build the city of souls, even if it is kidnapping, he will not refuse.

After all, he, Xu Yuan, is not a gentleman, and it is normal operation to tie up a ticket to achieve his goal.

With a decision in his heart, Xu Yuan also made a move.

He followed Qu Qiaoqiao, left the alley, and came to the real Night City.

night city.

In the middle of the night.

The inexplicable rules make it impossible for even the Moon of Blood Terror to invade.

But the sky didn't seem empty because there was no Blood Terror Moon.

Many strangely shaped man-made celestial bodies hang in the sky, emitting colorful lights.

I don't know if people in the dark world love neon only.

These huge celestial bodies are covered with various neon tubes, forming various texts and patterns.

These words are somewhat familiar, such as "love", "death", "robot" and so on.

There are also some that he can't understand at all, but these words all have the shadow of the distorted words that Xu Yuan has seen at the Eastern Suburb Wharf.

However, compared to those words that can make people mentally sink, these lamp texts are only superficial, and can't cause any harm to people.

Except for these man-made celestial bodies.

There are also tall buildings in this city, and the densely packed tall buildings are covered with blinking billboards and various lamps.

The light of red, green and blue and purple released illuminated the entire night city like a demon city.

on the street.

Each one looks like a human, but most of its limbs have been transformed into mechanical human creatures walking.

There was a strange and unique resentment rippling from their bodies.

But these grievances have now become the constant consumption of the fuel that drives their mechanical limbs to act.

There are also some Weirds who have no mechanical organs implanted in their bodies, lying on the ground pitifully, like beggars, constantly begging the passing Weirds, wanting to get a little resentment.

The grievances of these guys are being absorbed by the earth and are constantly weakening.

Looking at them, it seems that they will die in the next second.

This is Night City.

Full of technology and indifference.

The whole city looks like a huge machine, running icy cold.

In this city, people and things are like tiny screws.

For the operation of this machine has its own role.

"Is this the night city?"

Standing on the streets of Night City, Xu Yuan squinted his eyes as he watched the strange scene of a bird turning into fly ash and disappearing without a trace.

This city is simply a greedy monster, constantly absorbing everything it can.

However, this kind of absorption can only be applied to the existence below the red clothes.

It had no effect on him and Qu Qiaoqiao.

"It can only be said that it is a part of Night City. The people walking outside are just some poor creatures who have been transformed and experimented by those Frankensteins. Our target is no longer within this range."

For Qu Qiaoqiao, the surrounding scenes were nothing new.

The city was like this many years ago.

It's still like this after all these years.

There is no change at all, very boring.

"Then what is our goal?"

After a brief glance, Xu Yuan found that there were really not many strong ones wandering outside.

Most of them are white resentment level, and there are a few black li.

None of the red-clothed ranks existed.

As the red clothes that suddenly appeared on the street, these weird people walking on the street saw the terrified expressions on their faces.

They fled quickly, all of them wishing to grow four legs.

"This guy, the mechanic, is very boring. Every day in addition to researching ghost tools, he just comes here to drink. All we have to do is go to several famous bars in this city to find it."

Qu Qiaoqiao thought for a while and said.

"A bar? This mechanic is quite handsome."

Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Ah~ This guy has made a lot of money by relying on his ghost skills. His life is indeed more chic than ordinary."

Qu Qiaoqiao's words reminded Xu Yuan of the famous saying that technology is the primary productive force and knowledge is power.

He didn't expect that this principle would be useful even in the dark world.

This existence called a mechanic is the best example.

"Then let's go."

Now Xu Yuan is becoming more and more interested in this mechanic, and he is a little curious if such a technician will join his staff.

So can his territory also create a ghost tool development base that integrates R&D and manufacturing.

At that time, he can use these ghost tools to attract more weirdness to work for him.

Following Qu Qiaoqiao, she got on a tram that was stained with blood.

Xu Yuan silently looked at the scenery outside the window.

I have to say that although the atmosphere of Night City is cheating,
But the city is really feeling.

On the towering buildings, flickering lights formed terrifying images of human faces.

The celestial bodies in the sky cast stout searchlights from time to time, sweeping across the city.

Beggars on the street, the mechanics of street fights are weird.

It's amazing that this city full of ghosts is filled with an alternative vitality.

Squeak!

At this time, the walking tram suddenly stopped, and a hoarse electronic sound suddenly sounded from the tram's speaker.

"Ah... I feel the unique radiation fluctuations of human beings... You are human!"

A gap suddenly appeared from the ceiling inside the tram, and the gap suddenly opened, revealing a huge eye with an electronic circuit board turned into it.

The eye turned around and finally locked onto Xu Yuan's figure, the pupils of the eyes shrank.

A baleful laugh filled the speakers.

"Hahaha! Humans...the best material...humans..."

puff!
Before the roar of the tram was over, a dark shadow rose from the ground and directly penetrated the giant eye.

Xu Yuan, who was sitting on the chair with his arms folded, shook his head and sighed as he watched the engine oil continuously flow out of this eye.

"Sure enough, there shouldn't be any vehicles in such a pitiful place."

Looking up at the densely packed eyeballs that kept opening in the carriage, Xu Yuan raised his hand and snapped his fingers lightly.

"But do you feel that with your little strength, you can afford to play with me?"

The dark shadow boiled like a sea tide, and countless fine black blades pierced from the shadow, hitting every open eye in the carriage accurately.

"Ow!"

Accompanied by a huge scream, there was still a proliferation of flesh and blood inside the tram.

"Boss, let's run away, the ghost tram is starting to go crazy!"

At this time, Qu Qiaoqiao finally reacted and reminded quickly.

But the next second.

She felt dark before her eyes.

Wait until she regains her sight again.

I found myself outside the tram.

And the runaway ghost tram has been burned into a twisted black skeleton.

"what did you just say?"

Standing outside the ghost tram, the shadow under Xu Yuan's feet gradually returned to calm. He held a chip in his hand, but it was made of flesh and blood, and asked Qu Qiaoqiao.

"Uh... it's okay."

Looking at the ghost tram that had turned into a scrap of iron, Qu Qiaoqiao smiled awkwardly.

She was still a little worried that Xu Yuan would be captured by Ghost Tram's Ghost Network and uploaded to Night City's hunting website.

Be the target of the flesh hunters in this city.

But now it seems that the strength of her boss is more powerful than she imagined.

Not only does it block the horror camera of the ghost tram, but it also directly kills this thing.

Really... too strong.

"If it's all right, keep going."

Glancing at the burnt ghost tram, thinking for a while, he took out the Golden Fleece of Original Sin and the Twin Mask from the shadow summary and equipped it on his body.

A strong cursed breath rises from these equipment.

Covering his living breath like the radiation of the sun.

After moving his wrist, Xu Yuan nodded to Qu Qiaoqiao and said.

"Ah."

The two who solved the ghost tram set off again, but because there was no vehicle, the two could only walk.

while walking.

Xu Yuan began to check the chip he got out of the ghost tram.

【Soul Chip】

【Star Rating: ★★】

[Attributes: Dataization V, Formatting IV]

[Explanation: Extract the consciousness from the body and store it in the chip. In this way, no matter how rotten the body is, you only need to replace the chip carrying the consciousness with a new body to achieve data immortality——Scientist. 】

"..."

Seeing the chip with a brain pattern on its core and small blood vessel-like objects clinging to its surface, Xu Yuan fell silent.

Consciousness data.

In the present world, this thing is just a technological concept that exists in novels.

But in this night city.

This outrageous technology has become a reality.

Xu Yuan can only sigh with emotion that the underworld technology here is really awesome.

"Qiaoqiao, do you know scientists?"

Putting the chip away, Xu Yuan raised his head.

He is now also very interested in this scientist who can make soul chips.

"Scientist? That guy is a lunatic."

Hearing the name Xu Yuan mentioned, Qu Qiaoqiao's expression changed, showing horror.

"Boss, you'd better not have contact with her."

"Huh? How do you say it?"

Raising his eyebrows, Xu Yuan was a little curious.

What kind of existence could make Qu Qiaoqiao, the red-clothed, terrified.

"Scientist... To a certain extent, she is the city lord of Night City. In this city, 70% of the area is built by her own hands. Here, she can almost be called a god, and her character is very bad. "

Qu Qiaoqiao seemed to recall something bad, so she couldn't help shivering and said with a serious face.

"God?"

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and Xu Yuan's eyes were sharp.

The existence of the so-called god level, he has seen and absorbed it.

It is precisely because of this that his understanding of the gods is clearer than many red-clothed weirdos who have lived for an unknown number of years.

This night city is eerie and terrifying.

But this city does not have the peculiar divinity of the gods.

therefore.

This scientist may be very strong, but he is still a crucial step away from entering the realm of gods.

In this case.

He had nothing to fear.

As a wall hanging with a divine puzzle and awakened divine attributes.

Xu Yuan can be said to have no fear of any non-god-level existence.

This scientist...

talent that can be recruited.

"Hey! Let's go visit this scientist again after recruiting the mechanic."
