(For the Silver Alliance, random update cannot be used, and the completion progress is 17/100.)
Bai Wu knew what Yan Zizai was thinking.
Old Xie looked like a very steady man, but he suddenly became very Versailles, which would annoy anyone.
But Yan Zi, you are really unlucky today.
Although it is possible to deceive Yan Zizai, after helping Yan Zizai complete the task, he will have to meet with the captain. Bai Wu said:
"You should have heard about the Double Kill Supreme recently, right? The two top masters of Dark Night Judgment under the Eye of Kuros are the captain and Zheng Yue."
Yan Zizai stopped talking. Humans' joys and sorrows were not shared, and now he just felt that the white fog was a bit noisy.
The mechanical city is not big, its area is about the same as the bottom floor of the tower, but with the outer city and the exaggerated density of buildings here, it looks like there are a lot of people.
But in this purely information age, many things can spread very easily.
The Double Kill Supremes, these two super fighters under the Eye of Kuros, have added a lot of bargaining chips to the Eye of Kuros in this auction.
Many people are wondering, does the appearance of Double Kill Supreme mean that other weapons companies have the order to take pictures of the Apostles, but not the order to use them
Even Yan Zizai and Bai Xiaoyu, who had been acting as benevolent ambassadors for a few days, knew that this was a famous figure.
In just a few days, they took down one enemy stronghold after another for Dark Night Judge. It only took four days for the two to rise from nothing to great fame.
Yan Zizai felt that the way he started this exploration outside the tower was wrong.
The journey of the four people became silent, but fortunately this silence changed as they reached the end of the journey.
There are six major areas in the northern city area. The destination that Yan Zizai is heading to according to the mission prompt is at the border between the Tornado Gang under the Thunder Justice Company and the Mechanicus Gang under the Kroll Company.
Area D.
This area is mostly populated by homeless people and poor people who are eager for the latest fuel and oil, a fresh and tender mechanical female body and data interface that they can enjoy at any time, and even more eager for contribution points.
So while the outer areas of the southern city became a battlefield for various gangs, the D area in the northern city became a recruitment ground for various forces.
Kroll Company is good at attacking and developing various offensive weapons. Mog Company is good at developing defensive weapons, and Thunder Justice is good at developing voyeurism weapons.
Once the latest model of Thunder Justice's body device is loaded, the mechanical core will be able to issue a fire blockade order to other mechanical cores.
It can directly put the opponent's mechanical core into a non-combat state. However, this ability takes a long time to prepare, and it takes about 15 seconds to lock. Therefore, it is not favored by people. Thunder Justice looks very domineering, but its equipment is not liked by gang members. However, many infiltration experts or gentle elite killers like to use it.
A few days ago, at the Thunder Justice Headquarters, their latest research and development was lost, a new core invasion device that could make other mechanical cores see hallucinations.
This loss, coupled with the recruitment of a new member into Kroll Corporation's Mechanicus a few days ago, led to huge changes in the entire D District of the North City.
"Almighty God, please guide me!"
"God, please look at me and heal my filthy soul!"
"God's word is my vow!"
"Light, justice, greatness, immortal mechanical god, may you rule us forever!"
"Since the arrival of the God of Machinery, my Rawu virus has been completely cured! This is a miracle!"
In the dilapidated low-rise buildings, there are various mechanical wreckages, countless billboards, and "trenches" piled with waste.
In District D of the Taipei City District, a blood bank that can replenish blood for major forces at any time, the mechanical tribes in many alleys are worshiping a huge statue.
The statue is six meters tall and is made of countless waste materials. It is a statue of someone called the God of Machinery.
It is placed outside a sewage treatment plant in Area D.
The real equipment of the sewage treatment plant has long been moved to the industrial area of the western city, and now it is just an empty shell. Many homeless people like to hang out here.
This place used to be a high-crime area. These homeless people were fighting for a vacant staff dormitory and even broke the other party's mechanical core.
But this scene is gone now.
Instead, there is a huge theological scene.
The Tornado of Thunderous Justice? Kroll's Mechanicus? Or the Dark Night Judgment of the Eye of Kuros
These gangs and companies once divided the mechanical race into multiple camps, but not anymore.
They all belong to the Mechanicus, which originally believed in God, but their faith was not so strong.
Until a few days ago, a new member appeared in the Mechanicus, a body that looked very young.
The thoughts of this new member are like a virus more terrible than the Rawu virus and are spreading rapidly.
It takes advantage of people's desires and invents a god who can satisfy all of people's interests.
Xie Xingzhi had been to the Taipei City area before, and he knew how chaotic it was. This place definitely shouldn't be what he saw now.
Bai Wu frowned, the sense of déjà vu was too strong. Looking at this group of mechanical people worshipping a certain statue, he instantly thought of the information that the Eye of Prell had given him -
He is indeed dead, but your fate with him has not ended. You will even meet him in the next area you are about to visit.
In a sense, the Tower God Conference is the starting point of the White Mist Adventure.
After Gao Ta and Xie Xingzhi resolved the Tower God Conference, Bai Wu was thinking about the meaning of the words mentioned by the eyes.
Now he understood.
"Is this some kind of new virus? What's wrong with these mechanical people?"
The Mechanicus is no longer the Mechanicus.
Or it could be said that it is not just the Mechanicus. Ever since the president of the Tower God Society came to the Mechanicus, the boundaries between the gangs have become blurred.
There are no boundaries for gang members, only believers.
People from all major forces get along here in a friendly manner. They begin to make friends with each other and tell each other about their thoughts on the Kingdom of God.
When outsiders come in, they will be quickly won over by these mechanical elements who have been converted into believers. If they cannot be assimilated, they will be regarded as pagans and destroyed directly.
Looking at these scenes, Bai Wu said:
"This is indeed a virus. It's a very powerful virus."
Thinking of the advertisement I heard when I first came to the Machinery City -
"Welcome to join the Mechanicus. Flesh and blood are weak, but machines can ascend. Under the leadership of the president of the Mechanicus, we will surely receive the blessing of the God of Machinery. Pirates, beetles, and the Rawu virus? God will purify them!"
How long has he been dead? Calculating the time, this expansion speed can indeed be said to be a miracle.
Bai Wu found it a little unbelievable. He felt that it would be impossible for the president of the Tower God Society to achieve this level alone.
He took a look and was surprised to find that there were no people infected with the Lawu virus among these people.
Could it be that these people's rational thinking and emotional thinking are unified
Is there no contradictory humanity in the souls of these mechanical people
He had a vague idea of something, but having learned from the last lesson, Bai Wu would no longer simply characterize the problem.
Xie Xingzhi said:
"Is this where your mission is? Are you sure? These people look even poorer than you two, how could they have weapons?"
According to the task instructions received by Yan Zizai and Bai Xiaoyu, the place to obtain the equipment is in this sewage treatment plant.
Yan Zizai was also unsure and was about to continue looking at the task prompts, but then he frowned—
Congratulations, you have arrived at the destination. The equipment is on the way. Please shout out loud, God, please grant me purification.
This sentence was too embarrassing for Yan Zizai to say.
After observing the surroundings, Bai Wu said, "Can you repeat the mission to me exactly as it is?"
In Zero's task system, other people cannot view each other's tasks. Yan Zizai can only tell the task details orally.
As long as he didn't have to shout loudly, Yan Zizai still didn't think it was shameful, so he conveyed the initial mission information, as well as the current one, to Bai Wu without missing a word.
Bai Wu listened to Yan Zizai's S-level task and wondered why this task was of S-level difficulty
Many thoughts suddenly emerged in his mind:
"The common points of the missions are that they are of S-level difficulty and can only be accepted by native humans who are outsiders."
"But the difference is that the other party's tone doesn't sound like Zero. The tasks that Yan Zizai and Xiaoyu accepted seem to come from the task issuer. It feels completely different from the Zero that I encountered in Jia Kaier's heart."
"The publisher is most likely the president of the Tower God Society, but perhaps Zero gave him some kind of authority... That's right! If Zero hadn't given him the authority, he would definitely not have been able to move the Tower God Society's system to the Mechanical City in such a short time."
"But what's the meaning of Zero doing this? He is definitely different from any evil I've encountered before. This person may be the strongest character I can come into contact with outside of the well-known character. He is not just strong in combat power... So Zero must have some other purpose."
"No one here is infected with the Raou virus. Is it because of the existence of 'God' that the conflicts in their hearts have been resolved? Is Zero trying to imply that this is the solution to the Raou virus? Does it already have a solution?"
"No... it shouldn't be like this."
Throughout human history, there have been many people who used religion to consolidate their political power. But eventually, with the development of science, people discovered that God was fake.
In Bai Wu's previous life, religion showed its best attitude. It gave people faith and guided them to be good, but it did not overstep its boundaries.
The white fog seemed to have entered some kind of trance state. It was the first time that Yan Zizai and Xie Xingzhi saw this kind of white fog. They seemed to be troubled by a certain question, but also seemed to be about to get the answer.
"What's up with him?"
"I don't know, maybe it's overclocking." Xie Xingzhi has seen this expression before. His boss Xie Yingjie sometimes also has this expression when he is thinking about a problem.
Bai Wu actually responded to his surroundings, but he ignored Yan Zizai and Xie Xingzhi.
Because he did think of a possibility.
"No... The answer that Zero wants should definitely not be so superficial."
"The mechanical city is clearly divided into different levels: outer city, inner city, and core city. I believe the core city also has many different levels of areas. In this environment, it is indeed suitable to use theology to guide human nature. God's guidance will make people ignore their own sacrifices and losses, and their inner determination will bring huge rewards."
"If the mechanical core adapts to this data over a long period of time, it may be able to eliminate the Rawu virus."
"But the premise of all this is that there really is an omnipotent God who can satisfy the wishes of the mechanical race. Otherwise, people will soon discover that God is false and does not exist."
"Zero is very powerful, so powerful that it can create souls, but it is not a god. It itself is still troubled by the Lao virus... So this is not its answer. Everything here is just what it wants me to see."
As he thought about it step by step, Bai Wu's eyes gradually became clear:
"It is guiding me to find a more reliable method than theology. What the president of the Tower God Society is saying is wrong!"
"But is Zero going to eliminate these believers? That shouldn't be the case... As long as the leader of the Tower God Society disappears, these people will realize it in no time."
"So its real purpose is to lure me to the North City District?"
There was light in Bai Wu's eyes, and he said:
"Don't follow the mission instructions, but don't give up the mission either. It's very dangerous here."
Yan Zizai was puzzled:
"Dangerous? Why?"
"Our real purpose is not to obtain weapons, nor to escort someone to the auction."
"what is that?"
Bai Wu repeated the notes given by the Eye of Prell:
The followers of the Mechanicus are spread all over the place, and it is even rumored that the machine-stitching experiment technology that has not been approved by the Core City is also being carried out here.
Zero once mocked Bai Wu, saying that Bai Wu only saw the cause of the Lao virus but did not see the cause of the cause.
This time, Bai Wu saw Yan Zizai's mission, and also saw the real mission beyond the mission.
"The Mechanicus is a cult organization. They are conducting some unauthorized experiments in the North City District. Our mission is to stop the experiments from continuing."
Although Yan Zizai and Xie Xingzhi were completely confused, Bai Wu was very confident in what he said, so they had no choice but to believe him.
Bai Xiaoyu, on the other hand, was not confused at all. He just did whatever the adults said.
…
…
Core city, Mechanical Temple.
The huge core city is like an eye floating in the sky. All changes in the inner city can be seen from the core city temple.
The silver-haired boy looked at Bai Wu and the others heading in a direction beyond the mission, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, but that was all.
After all, Bai Wu had disappointed it not long ago.
What Bai Wu was thinking just now was not just his imagination. If Zero was on the fifth floor, then this time - Bai Wu was also on the fifth floor.
A few days ago, Zero observed a fairly interesting soul—the president of the Tower God Society.
The soul of the president of the Tower God Society is extremely inciting and bewitching.
Inspired by this soul, Zero came up with a way to suppress the Rawu virus.
But this method is not suitable for itself, but only for those who have poor thoughts, unstable hearts and urgently need to be saved by a god.
Even so, this method will not last long. God and the perfect world are both lies.
Zero doesn't believe either of these.
There is nothing in this world that Zero can call a god, although he has seen a madman who is as powerful as a god.
Zero gave the president of the Tower God Society an identity, did not localize his memory, and also gave him a lot of authority.
I want to see if this president has the potential to cure the Rawu virus, and if he has deeper potential.
But the ending disappointed it, this is just a clown who is good at deceiving people.
Originally, this clown could have survived, at least it did bring redemption to some souls, although its essence was a deception.
But the president of the Tower God Society did something that Zero was annoyed with—
Body suture.
Let two mechanical cores bound with souls fuse together to give birth to some kind of morbid new soul.
The president of the Tower God Society is very interested in this world and wants to figure out how machines and souls are combined together.
This incident reminded Zero of some experiences from his childhood.
However, with someone like Zero, he naturally wouldn't do it himself.
It just needs to tell the president of the Tower God Society some news.
Later, the president of the Tower God Society learned that a Tower Man had entered the Mechanical City, and there was a shortage of Tower Men in a certain experiment.
After a few days of observation, the president of the Tower God Society thought that Yan Zizai and Bai Xiaoyu were just minor characters.
What great skills can a dishwasher have
So through half-truth and half-false coaxing, he let Yan Zizai and Bai Xiaoyu go to the northern city area, where there was a base for the forbidden mechanical soul experiment.
If Yan Zizai and Bai Xiaoyu died in the North District, Zero believed that after Bai Wu got the news, he would definitely go to the North District to observe.
This was a test it left for Bai Wu—to observe how many levels Bai Wu could comprehend and what choices he would make.
If Bai Wu's choice is wrong again, it will lower its evaluation of Bai Wu again.
But this time, Bai Wu made the right choice.
And it seems that Bai Wu was very lucky, as he found Bai Xiaoyu and Yan Zizai before their tragedy happened. As a result, Bai Wu broke through the situation earlier than Zero expected.
Originally Yan Zizai and Bai Xiaoyu were doomed to die, but now with the help of Bai Wu and Xie Xingzhi, they have a great chance of winning.
