Abyss Express

"Hot wind, you did say that just now."

Meteor squatted on the stone steps, not intending to get up and leave immediately.

"I owe a debt? Forty-five hundred dollars?"

[This is the price of using VENOM, you spend money, it does the job, it's fair. ]

Meteor frowned, and looked down at the other solvents in the incubator. According to this calculation, as long as he was alive in Shinto City, he would spend money every minute.

[Forty-eight hours, counting sleep time, you will spend four thousand and five, one hundred and eighty-seven yuan and fifty cents per hour, three yuan and two cents and five cents per minute, every breath, every thought, you are spend money. ]

[As long as you live on VENOM, you have to keep making money. ]

Meteor fiddled with the other solutions in the incubator, and asked without hesitation: "If I drink all these things, will I still not make any money?"

[Then you will be in debt. ]

"What if I pay the debt?"

[If you fail to pay back on time, interest will be calculated. If the interest is not paid, after a period of time, it may be very long, or it may be very short——[Chang Shi] will investigate you to determine whether you are a beast or a baby ]

[Because in Shinto City, those who cannot create value for society, and those who cannot enter the industrial system to work, can only be classified as beasts and babies. ]

[If you become a beast, you will enter the Elysium, [Day Patrol] will take over your physical body, and your spirit, your astral body will go to a cyberspace, live there forever, and become an electronic museum exhibits. ]

It was hard for Meteor to imagine, and he couldn't understand what kind of endless hell it was just relying on hot wind's few words.

[If you don't understand, your eldest brother has a wonderful spiritual ability called [Fragrant Fantasy], right? ]

Meteor nodded with a heavy heart.

"Yes."

[Elysium is like another fragrant dream, but it is a special area created by the neural networks of many different Homo sapiens, where people obtain eternal freedom and peace. ]

[You won’t even know when you entered [Elysium Space]. Before that, they will install [Ascension Mod] on you. When you were caught by [Night Watch], they gave you three injections liquid medicine. ]

[The first injection is saline, which is used to test the fluidity of your body tissues. ]

[The second shot is an anesthetic that takes your consciousness out of your body. ]

[The third injection is a muscle relaxant, which makes you unable to breathe on your own, and the cardiopulmonary system gradually shuts down. ]

[In fact, there is a fourth injection, which is chloride, which is the standard execution procedure. At the moment before your death, [Chang Shi] will save your Riemannian thinking model, and you will become a member of the Shendao City History Museum. exhibits. ]

Hearing this kind of thing, Meteor broke into a cold sweat. It turned out that he was only one step away from death.

[It was I who saved you, [Night Patrol] thought you were a beast, but I transformed your arm without authorization, allowing you to have VENOM and become a legal citizen of Shinto City. ]

[If you can't pay off your debts, you will only be treated as a baby and need to be re-educated and re-learned. ]

Meteor propped himself up and went to look outside the alleyway. Now every minute passed, he would lose one hundred and eighty-seven yuan—time is money, and he had to do several things at the same time.

As he walked, he listened carefully to the guidance of the hot wind.

[As for this re-education and re-study, there is also a fee. ]

[The basic medical insurance service you owed before, like the total price of these six electrolyte solutions is 27,000 yuan, and the money with the principal will be rolled up to 30,000 yuan at most, which will trigger the circuit breaker measures of the medical insurance. ]

[You will be taken to the [Classic Human] school of the [Day Patrol] unit. In this school, you will receive skill training until you are qualified for a certain position and generate value for society. ]

The moment he stepped out of the alleyway, Meteor was blinded by the lights of the main road. He covered his face for protection, and after a few seconds, he felt that the people around him were coming and going like the wind, all in a hurry. The warning of the hot wind is still in the ear.

[Of course, this requires money. This tuition fee needs to go through a mortgage process. If you haven’t enrolled yet, you can use part of your memory to mortgage it. ]

Meteor has no time to take care of Hot Wind's guidance——

——When he came to his senses, he stared at the people coming and going on the sidewalk, with many thoughts in his mind.

How is this going?

Not to say.

Didn't it mean that Shinto City has been abandoned?

This place has suffered natural disasters and turned into ruins fifty years ago.

but now

——He saw people on both sides of the street staring straight ahead without any hesitation, their eyes were piercing, and they were wearing simple clothes with strong symbols.

Looking from the city number signboard in Xiaoguandong, most of the people coming from Southwest Street are in suits, men wearing ties, holding their briefcases, and holding a bottle of electrolyte solution with different flavors in the other hand. As a supplement, as the necessary energy for work.

Women are wearing office suits, shirts and skirts, flocking to the transportation hub and office buildings on the northeast side.

No one spoke, and they followed the security signs and rushed to their respective workstations.

For a while, Meteor was a little flustered, he didn't know how to deal with this flow of people, he saw too many things—too many things.

The low-altitude rail car at the hub in the distance has just started. It is the maglev high-speed train from Xiaokanto to No. 2 Chiba County. It is like a green dragon, and it disappears with a whoosh.

Higher and farther away, on the building of the [Changshi] Government Affairs Center, a row of scroll screens slanted down from the roof, and the avatar of Seiko Matsushima emerged from the frame, beckoning to every citizen cordially.

The mottled phantom light and the real person with flesh and blood all make Meteor start to doubt whether he really lives in the real world?

[It's true, Bu Meteor. ]

[This is true, this is the first office in Kanto County, Shinto City, and the street number is 141. ]

[According to the habit of [Changshi], they like to put their newborns here. When you come to this street and see the bustling street scene, you can see tall buildings, and you can see the tall tower connecting the sky and the earth in the distance. They should be able to adapt to this rhythm of life and recognize the way Shinto City operates. ]

Meteor: "Why don't they talk? I don't feel like they are human."

As Meteor described, not only the commuting citizens, but also the sanitation workers working under various ultraviolet headlights, they have no intention of communicating. They just bury their heads in trimming broad-leaved vegetation and climbing tall buildings to plant spider plants.

In addition to different shoes, different heels knock out complex notes on the floor.

The image of Seiko Matsushima is constantly changing. It is a virtual projection shaped by sound waves and fine sand. Against the background of these roaring noises, there is no human language in this world.

[Because they are all asleep, they live in [Elysium Space], stepping on meteors. ]

Meteor followed the turbulent flow of people, he caught up with one of the passersby, and carefully observed the expression of that passerby——

——This little brother, like everyone else, looked straight ahead with clear goals and no room for any hesitation. When he came to the hub, he immediately stretched the VENOM on his right arm towards the traffic checkpoint. After passing the checkpoint, he immediately got into the diversion elevator. Soon disappeared.

"Did they fall asleep? Fell asleep? What do you mean? Hot wind"

Meteor looked left and right, passing countless people beside him, and the morning rush hour passed by every minute, and the office workers were all gone, and when he was the only one left, he walked along the main road to the riverside.

[Most of the office workers you see have purchased hosting services. Artificial intelligence can help you work, control your physical body, check your brain, use your talents, complete 100% of physical work, and complete 78% of work. mental work. ]

[Artificial intelligence will not be lazy, they will overcome all kinds of difficulties and obstacles, and maintain a high degree of concentration, which is an excellent production tool. ]

[During this period, you can go to [Elysium Space] for vacation, such as appreciating other people's artistic creations, playing in another world, building your own virtual space, or visiting someone else's virtual space-going to the electronic museum to observe the beast's lifetime. ]

[As I said before, there is no death in the traditional sense in Shinto City. If you are very poor, [Chang Shi] will do everything possible to help you out of poverty and make you in debt. If you are not good enough, you will go to another world, and [Elysium] ] people become friends. ]

[The boundary between life and death will become blurred. If you become a beast in the electronic museum, maybe someone will take a fancy to you, and they will redeem you and reshape your physical form—you will come back to life. ]

[This is the reincarnation of Shinto City. ]

The inland river in Xiaoguandong is next to the mouth of Yong'an County.

The city emits colorful phantom lights, and under the tide, there seems to be another unknown and noisy city.

Meteor watched all this quietly until an elite unit of the [Japanese Patrol] came to him.

Japanese Patrolman: "Your Excellency Bu Meteor?"

Ah Xing was taken aback, he followed the voice and looked over——

——That person looks exactly the same as the executioner of [Night Watch]. This scene made him feel guarded, and he over-secreted adrenaline from his body almost immediately.

The VENOM organ on the right arm releases the nanomachines, turning into a layer of flexible grid cloth and nano-armor, and the hot wind also enters the alert mode.

The criminal policeman on the Japanese patrol raised his hands high and took two steps back.

"No! I have no offensive intentions! I just want to ask a few questions! Your Excellency Meteor!"

Ah Xing panted heavily——

—he could feel, feel that the hot wind hated these notes very much.

"I am different from the [Night Watch] law enforcement officer who arrested you. We are the same batch of [Angel Babies], clones of the same template, but I can guarantee that at this moment, I will not harm you—— Your Excellency Meteor."

The Japanese patrol police officer explained in a good voice.

"I'm in charge of Xiaoguandong District 1, from [Changshi] Administrative Hall to [Forty-Three Pillars], and it's working time. I saw you wandering here, didn't you find a job?"

Bu Meteor: "How do you know my name? Are you familiar with me?"

[Meteor boy, everyone in this city, as long as they have VENOM in their hands, there will be no secrets to the six major departments. They know who you are. ]

Japanese Patrolman: "I would like to be friends with you. Your life experience is a valuable property for [Chang Shi]—it can bring many contributions to this society."

Meteor couldn't understand the implication of the iron lump bionic man, just kept vigilant, and slowly backed away step by step.

Japanese Patrolman: "Your Excellency Bu Meteor, your VENOM should point the way for you, right? It will tell you what to do next, it will analyze your essence, analyze your mental state, and arrange a plan for you. a job, right?"

Bu Meteor just wanted to speak.

[Dude, don't confess me, I'm illegal. ]

Ah Xing nodded: "Yes."

Japanese Patrolman: "So where are you going next? I can give you a ride."

Ah Xing: "I"

[Be a fitness trainer and help people improve their physical fitness. ]

Ah Xing: "I want to be a fitness trainer."

The Japanese patrol policeman smiled happily, showing a smile from that three-dimensional and tough face, which made Meteor's scalp tingle - that kind of smile is really happy from the heart, and the warm emotion cannot be deceived.

"We really need such a teacher. If your knowledge can enter [eternal world], and every soldier is as strong as you, that would be a great thing. If this is the case, I will not disturb your studies and Cultivation, shall I go first?"

[Don't pay attention to him, he will leave by himself, don't say unnecessary words. ]

The meteor didn't move at all.

The Japanese police officer covered his heart with one hand, bowed to thank Ah Xing, then called the drone, and then flew away.

Meteor's legs were weak, and he could hardly breathe in the face of the violent mechanism.

After the executioner of the night patrol beat Brother Pingan to his knees, Meteor had such a demon in his heart. He couldn't think of a way to defeat these androids.

When the drone flew over just now, you could still see the weapon backpack in the center of the six-sided rotor. It's not just the firepower displayed by the executioner.

Meteor: "Hot Wind. You seem to hate these guys"

[If there are many people who use your face and body to live in this world, would you like these guys? ]

Meteor: "What do you mean?"

[Typical people, also known as classic human beings - most of the babies born in this medical and educational institution look the same. They are cloned human beings, corresponding to outstanding fighters, scholars, artists, and educators in history based on different genetic blueprints scientists, scientific researchers, etc. to create human beings. ]

[These babies are called [Angel Babies], and they are clones bred from artificial wombs. The violent institutions used by the six major departments, and the blueprint of the human resources of the soldiers come from me, Hot Wind Boy. ]

[The night patrol executioner who cut off Luo Ping'an's arm is my undead left in this city. ]

[The idiot who broke your arm is my son. ]

[The detective who stopped you just now and told you to go to work is also my clone. ]

[If you let them know that I, Hot Wind, is still alive in your arm, you will be wanted at the highest level. ]

Meteor: "Were you a fucking criminal before? A super soldier?"

[meteor. It's all by chance that we got together, now [Chang Shi] can't figure out what you have in your hands, but these guys are very humanitarian, and they won't do anything to you until they verify me. ]

Meteor: "You were a criminal before, weren't you?"

[]

Bu Meteor: "Ranfeng, what do you want me to do? What do you want to use me for? My brother Ming said that there will be no pies in the sky, you help me, I help you, this is a good thing--but if you get involved Anything else that's complicated, becomes really, really bad."

The boundary of Xiaoguandong alone is enough for Meteor to wander around for a while.

Not to mention the virtual world of [Elysium Space], he would have to learn for a long time if he wanted to walk through the urban area with more than 20 main roads in this area. Without the help of hot wind and the guidance of VENOM, this city would For Homo sapiens, it is a forest of iron and steel, and human beings without transformation are indeed babies and beasts.

[I want revenge, brother. ]

[I want to smash the city, topple it from the inside out. ]

[I once had a wife, I had a lover, she was a rose in the fire, we had a revolutionary friendship of life and death together. ]

Ah Xing: "You must be very happy."

[In this day and age, anyone in [Elysium] can fall in love with her, anyone can take a copy of her home, anyone can, and now my wife is like a subway—the number of passengers soars every holiday. ]

Ah Xing: "Fucking, what you said is too wicked, the Buddha will not forgive you."

[I am a fun person, I never thought I would become a fun person. ]

Ah Xing: "And then?"

[Tell me what are you going to do? ]

Ah Xing said viciously.

"I want to find my brother wolf, Xue Ming entrusted Ah Hei to me, I can't leave him - I have to find Brother Pingan, and then cut off an arm of the night patrol executioner, I have to take revenge .”

[The time you spend here is converted into money]

Ah Xing: "Stop talking nonsense, tell me how to make money, I'm going to work, right?"

[Don't think about the part-time job, which part-time job earns a lot of money in the world? You have great collateral, must be worth a lot of money, we need to find a place to settle down first. ]

[Go to the bank first. ]
