The third floor of the tower, industrial zone, Hongyuan production base.
After Lilith left the white fog, she began to answer multiple-choice questions quickly.
Bai Wu actually dared to let her go. This seemed unbelievable to Lilith. This might also indirectly confirm Bai Wu's confidence. If Bai Wu was not strong enough, he would not let her go.
Bai Wu alone is no match for the president, so how can he deal with the entire Tower God Society
Who is the backer behind him
These questions troubled Lilith, and they were also what Lilith couldn't figure out. She was not sure whether to deal with Bai Wu. Or should she help Bai Wu deal with the president
But it would be a good idea to find a way to contact the president of the Tower God Society first, so she came to the third floor of the tower, which was strictly speaking the Hongyuan production base that belonged to the Zhong family.
The death of Zhong Xu remains a secret until now, and only the Xie family knows about it.
Although the Tower God Society uses the Zhong family's assets as its base, it only has a cooperative relationship with the Zhong family.
They need the Zhong family's protection, and the Zhong family needs them to do some dirty work.
The underground factory of the Hongyuan production base is the base where the Ta Shen Society handles certain goods.
Lilith successfully contacted the president of the Tower God Society, and the two agreed to meet here.
…
…
Tower, fourth floor.
Inside the Black Tower, Xie Xingzhi looked at the video on the surveillance camera and said:
"It is impossible to observe inside the Hongyuan production base. But as long as they leave there, we will definitely know."
"How large is your surveillance coverage?"
“We all know the areas that the ceiling can monitor.”
"So as long as we're not in the house, you know basically all the actions and activities?"
Bai Wu felt incredible, but also felt that... he could accept it.
"Yes. Scared?"
"No, I've actually been thinking that since there is a gap in civilization and each level has different technologies, after seven hundred years, the people at the bottom will actually be much behind in cognition. In this case, your management can indeed be regarded as a dimensionality reduction attack."
Bai Wu's tone was very flat. Xie Xingzhi couldn't tell whether Bai Wu was happy or angry, so he didn't enter observation mode.
Although he does not have Yan Zizai's eyes, Xie Xingzhi, as the guardian of the Xie family, has mechanical configuration only inferior to Xie Yingjie.
He can easily judge a person's emotions by sensing his breathing, heartbeat, and even hormone secretion.
Xie Xingzhi did not do so because past experience told him that doing so would make him quickly lose interest in a person.
But if Xie Xingzhi really did this, he might be more interested in Bai Wu.
"What about the other families? Do they know about this, too? Can they monitor us through the ceiling, too?"
"No, only our Xie family can place monitoring equipment on the nine hundred meter high ceiling. Other families focus on the third floor, which is the aristocratic class with the highest happiness index."
Xie Xingzhi still had a good impression of Bai Wu. After all, although he did not participate in the entire last exploration, he was able to see some clues from Yan Zizai and Bai Wu.
This person does have unimaginable potential, especially Xie Yingjie, who is highly appreciated by his real boss.
Xie Xingzhi said:
"We know all about the unrest at the bottom, how many crimes happen on the streets every day, and all the conspiracies and secrets exposed under the ceiling of the tower levels."
“This is truly a hopeless world.”
"It's not that desperate. After all, we still leave a lot of privacy for you."
Bai Wu thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with this statement.
In my previous life, in the era of big data, the degree of people's privacy exposure was actually no less than it is now.
"You should understand now, right? The Tower God Society is just a small organization to us. The reason why we didn't eliminate it is because the Zhong family is here. Now the war between the major forces to encroach on the Zhong family will soon begin. Let's destroy the Tower God Society."
Xie Xingzhi's tone was quite overbearing, as if saying "The weather is getting cold, the Ta family should go bankrupt."
But Bai Wu now believes that this is really a dimensionality reduction attack.
"I think I understand why the Tower's resistance has been fruitless time and time again in history. This is just like the Imperial Age after the Dark Ages War in the Imperial Age."
Xie Xingzhi certainly didn't know what Age of Empires was. Xie Yingjie did know that he had played it with Professor Tao before, but they lost because they built wonders. Of course, the game in this world had a different name.
"In history, there have indeed been people from the lower classes who have launched rebellions, but they were suppressed. Our Xie family did not take action because the time had not come for us to do so. Our family is very powerful in the tower, but that does not mean that other families do not have trump cards."
For the lower-class people, the rulers of the fifth floor of the tower are equivalent to the super bosses on the fifty-first floor of the Tower of God.
Bai Wu asked one last question:
"Why don't you consider... changing the lower classes? They are rebelling because of resource allocation issues at the level. Since you are able to monitor everything, if you are willing to improve the security at the lower levels, people's lives will be much better."
Changing the lower class is Wujiu's dream, or part of his dream. If he can convince Xie's family to help, Bai Wu feels that he can at least help the captain save a lot of trouble.
"Shh!"
Xie Xingzhi made a hushing gesture.
"Each family doesn't care about what happens to the bottom layer. Humans will always survive, although you would think that if the bottom layer is taken care of better, mining capacity and public security would be improved. But for the fifth layer, the two worlds are no longer a system."
Xie Xingzhi had obviously already accepted this view, so he said it as a matter of course:
"The two worlds are not connected. Do you still expect people in the clouds to care about the dust? And you have to know one thing."
"What?"
"It is not the rulers who divide the classes, it is the towers."
The white fog was silent.
He now realized that although he had come into contact with the people on the fifth floor, the sixth floor of the tower still seemed extremely mysterious.
Compared to when he came into contact with the fourth level, nothing has changed.
The conversation between the two ended here because Lilith came out. Soon after, some workers from the Hongyuan production base also came out.
They quickly headed to the elevator, apparently preparing to go to the second floor.
"What are they going to do?" Xie Xingzhi asked.
This is the difference between machinery and sequence. Xie Xingzhi cannot analyze the enemy through the screen, but Bai Wu can.
Bai Wu said:
"We should go now. The president of the Tower God Society is leading ten masters of the Tower God Society to the second floor."
"It seems that you, like Yan Zizai, have very useful eyes."
Bai Wu said:
"Yes, I must admit, the Eye of the Scales is quite useful."
…
…
The second floor of the tower.
Behind Lilith are eleven cadres of the Tower God Society. Each of them has the strength of a captain of the Investigation Corps and is extremely loyal to the Tower God Society.
Bai Wu and Lilith finally met in a secluded place on the second floor, allowing Lilith to report intelligence to him alone.
Lilith's choice seemed to be on the side of the Tower God Society. She decided to take the masters of the Tower God Society to find Bai Wu.
For Bai Wu, who sought help from the Xie family, it was not difficult to find the Tower God Society, but he planned to test Lilith.
Under the powerful surveillance of the Xie family, Bai Wu already knew the information of the president of the Tower God Society.
The second floor is less populated than the first floor, and many residential areas are vacant.
In the residential area of the northern district, several old buildings divide the surrounding open space into many alleys.
The president of the Tower God Society and twelve cadres including Lilith, all gathered here under Lilith's persuasion, with the purpose of eradicating the white fog.
When Bai Wu and Xie Xingzhi arrived, Lilith was already waiting here.
She looked at the white mist and said:
"I have already contacted the president. Who is this person next to you?"
"Your eyes should be able to see that he is just an ordinary helper."
Xie Xingzhi's companion force is at the first stage of the seventh level, while Lilith's Eye of Insight, the ability to observe the top 100 sequences, is suppressed by the Eye of Prell.
In Lilith's opinion, Xie Xingzhi was considered a master, but facing the president, even he and Bai Wu together were no match.
What's more, there are eleven powerful cadres of the Tower God Society here.
The main reason why the president of the Tower God Society was persuaded to lead the elite troops out in full force was that Lilith mentioned Cain to the president of the Tower God Society.
And Cain... had many dealings with this president.
Now Bai Wu and Xie Xingzhi have stepped into a dangerous place.
Lilith said:
"Does the agreement between us still count?"
"Of course, help me lead out the leader of the Tower God Society, and you are free. Now you just need to tell me his location."
Lilith looked at Bai Wu. She didn't say anything, but her eyes told it all.
The cadres of the Tower God Society continued to pour out from the surrounding buildings, and the entrances to the alleys that extended in all directions were soon blocked.
Bai Wu and Xie Xingzhi fell into an ambush.
Those who surrounded the white fog all put on half a bronze mask.
Bai Wu's expression was still calm as he swept his eyes over these people. Because they had entered combat mode, the information feedback from the Eye of Prell was more than normal. He discovered that each of these people in ambush were masters, and some of them also had some tricky sequences.
The last person to appear was the president of the Tower God Society. The face beneath the bronze mask could not be seen, and Bai Wu was not interested either. He just looked at Lilith and said:
"It's up to you what you choose next. I'll only give you thirty seconds, because after thirty seconds, a miracle will happen."
The battle suddenly began, and a flying axe was swung towards the white fog.
With Lilith's Eye of Insight, Bai Wu's Eye of Prell has entered a bound state. He saw this scene seconds ago.
After easily dodging the flying axe, the other cadres of the Tower God Society rushed forward.
"See, I told you, these people are troublesome."
Bai Wu and Xie Xingzhi, who are at the seventh level, can naturally avoid the fifth and sixth level attacks easily. Bai Wu can see the changes in the future for a few brief seconds, and Xie Xingzhi can calculate various possibilities based on the opponent's attack.
The two of them suppressed each other in strength, but their speed quickly slowed down.
Phantom Gravity Advanced.
After being hit by a non-existent but undispellable gravity, Bai Wu and Xie Xingzhi seemed to be in a passive situation.
Faced with attacks from all angles, they seemed to have no way out.
A seemingly weak sequence, when used by the president of the Tower God Society, actually becomes somewhat threatening.
However, relying on iron armour, the circulation of the five elements, counterattack without action, and attributes leaning towards defence and life recovery, Bai Wu can defend against most attacks by himself.
As long as the president of the Tower God Society does not take action, these people can restrain him, but they cannot cause him any fatal harm.
At the same time, Bai Wu also knew that time had entered the countdown.
"Lilith, it's time to make a choice."
The white mist urged.
He clearly seemed to be at a disadvantage, but Lilith felt something was wrong.
While dealing with the attacks from the Tower God Association cadres, Xie Xingzhi said:
"You can't beat these guys without my help. Is that right?"
"I do not deny."
Without the help of the Tower God Society's president, Bai Wu and Xie Xingzhi were able to fight ten people at once. Even though their speed was suppressed, they still seemed quite calm.
"I will help you, but it's time to act on what you promised my boss. After you finish dealing with things here, you have to go to the Mechanical City with me."
As Xie Xingzhi spoke, he counted the time in his mind. It took twelve seconds to load a certain weapon.
Bai Wu originally thought that he could drag it out, but he didn't expect the other party to start rushing the task.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he deflected someone's attack with his axe and said:
"That place, since it's a black area, do you think I can go there?"
"I've been to the Mechanical City. If we follow the requests of the residents of the Mechanical City and solve some of the local problems, we may have a chance to complete the mission. This is the strength of you and Yan Zizai, but we dare not use Yan Zizai alone because the forces behind the Yan family don't have a good relationship with our Xie family. But if you come with us, it will be different. Yan Zizai can even be a bait."
To complete the mission, resolve some crises in the mechanical city, and avoid battles as much as possible, this requires a lot of information, and in this regard, Yan Zizai is no match for Bai Wu.
Bai Wu was surprised by Xie Xingzhi's honesty, because these words were also heard by the president of the Tower God Society and these cadres.
He continued to swing the bronze axe, and the air was filled with the sound of weapons clashing.
"I'm ready, just waiting for your consent."
Xie Xingzhi's sudden preparation was that some kind of weapon had been loaded. Bai Wu asked the last question:
"Do I need to fight Zero?"
"Zero? Should I say you are ignorant and fearless? It is the mechanical emperor, or even a god. It is not something humans can deal with. Give up. What we need to do is to gain its favor and get a chip back."
"make a deal."
Bai Wu felt a little relieved. The black area was indeed dangerous, but since Xie Xingzhi was able to come back alive, it showed that the interest relationship between the forces outside the tower and the Xie family was relatively stable.
The most important thing is that you don’t need to face the Guardian.
After receiving the response from the white mist, the black machine quickly covered Xie Xingzhi. These strange materials seemed to grow inside Xie Xingzhi's body.
Xie Xingzhi looked like an unknown metal warrior covered in black.
The Xie family has six types of mechanical evil degeneration devices outside the tower, with six specifications. The most powerful ultimate machine device is naturally on Xie Yingjie.
What you see and what Xie Yingjie gave you are all sub-ultimate models. Compared with yours, Xie Yingjie's has some more sensing functions and special combat methods inside the tower.
The combat performance outside the tower is actually the same. We must admit that the Xie family is still very generous. You got a treasure.
When exploring Zaohu Village, Bai Wu wanted to test how powerful the equipment Xie Yingjie gave him was. However, because he was dragged into the spiritual realm, he never had the chance.
Now, he finally felt the power of technology in this world seven hundred years later.
The black metal warrior instantly attracted the firepower of all cadres. The president of the Tower God Society seemed to sense some kind of threat and suddenly liquefied his body!
Bai Wu looked at Lilith and said:
"You chose too slowly. Looks like you'll disappear forever."
Thirteen black lights pierced through the thirteen figures. When Bai Wu was talking to Lilith, Lilith's body had been cut in half by the black laser.
These terrifying beams of light did not come from Xie Xingzhi's body device, but... from the ceiling.
Bai Wu couldn't imagine that if the Xie family had really participated in suppressing riots in history, the so-called resistance would probably have collapsed in an instant.
This was an extremely troublesome method, which also meant that the tower was out of the control of the rulers and there was no hope at all. He and the captain might be able to rely on their overwhelming strength to counter the Xie family's weapons... but what about the others
The body of the leader of the Tower God Society liquefied, avoiding the fatal blow, but Xie Xingzhi's attack did not end there:
"I have already analyzed your behavior trends. You don't think you can run away, do you?"
Another beam of light hit the president of the Tower God Society.
This time the attack came from Xie Xingzhi's black body armor.
The cold white light quickly froze the president of the Tower God Society.
Liquefaction is indeed a very troublesome ability. It is almost immune to physical attacks, but is naturally restrained by cold.
"I've cleared the trash, pack up, it's time for you to come with me to the Mechanical City."
Xie Xingzhi looked at the president of the Tower God Society who had shattered into ice chips and said lightly.
Bai Wu nodded.
He walked towards the body of the Tower God Association's president, ready to look for something. He was not at peace now. First, he didn't think the other party would die so easily, and secondly -
Originally, he was somewhat resistant to the Mechanical City, but now Bai Wu realized that if he didn't find some cards from Zero, if the Xie family forgot their original intentions in the future... the people of the Tower would never see the light of day.
The power of the Xie family in the tower had exceeded his expectations.
This is the strength of the rulers. Zhong Xu... just got lucky. At least, it is unrealistic to defeat the rulers in the tower with the current reserves of himself and Shorty.
(I was a bit lazy yesterday and today, as I just needed to go through the plot of the Mechanical City... I should update twice a day starting tomorrow.)
