Shameless

Chapter 1067: Fireworks Jianghu

Views:

There is no comfort in heaven or on earth. God and the devil will not care. Only we, small and lonely, are killing each other and waiting for death while struggling against fate. The middle-aged man in the TV series House of Cards speaks his lines in a cadence.

Early in the morning, there were only Mr. and Mrs. Li and the blond man in the braised food restaurant.

"Kevin Spacey, a great actor." Lao Li said: "One of the greatest achievements of human society, soap opera." He smiled and added: "It's super interesting, my wife's favorite, and I wasn't interested in it either. After watching it a few times, I found it very interesting. Xiao Jinzi, you think you know everything, but in fact you only know the part they are willing to let you know. You can create life, but you cannot create humanity, so a thousand people There are only a thousand Hamlets in my eyes."

The blond man didn't want to give his name, so Lao Li called him Xiao Jinzi based on the color of his hair.

"These dirty and heretical little thoughts are worthless!" Xiao Jinzi raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp, saying, "But the alcohol is a surprise."

He is aloof and enjoys the faith of all living beings. In the hearts of the world, he is regarded as a god who looks up to the mountains. He has rebuilt and destroyed human civilization countless times in history. Such a person must be as deep as the stars, with unpredictable opportunities, and the power to turn things around. But in fact, those actions are only based on the huge differences in levels. This process is like a young beekeeper who helps bees build nests and then destroys them.

Whether it is construction or destruction, he considers it to be work without any emotion. In the eyes of bees, the boy is naturally unattainable, but when faced with beings of the same level, this creature may just be an arrogant and cold boy.

Lao Li said: "The drink I gave you was specially made by me. Don't talk about drinking it for others. If you smell it, you will be drunk to death."

"This is the difference." Xiao Jinzi said: "I admit that the complexity of human thoughts exceeds my expectation, but I cannot deny that those complicated thoughts are worthless. As this person said, small and lonely people No matter what human beings do, their ultimate destiny is to wait for death."

"Actually, aren't you?" Old Li said: "By analogy with the more ancient beings in the universe, why don't you claim to be an advanced being?"

"That's why I have to survive and become stronger!" Xiao Jinzi said with an arrogant and confident expression.

Lao Li looked at him and found it hard to believe that this was the man who created Western mankind, created many earth civilizations, opened up multiple religious beliefs, used religious contradictions to create war, fear and death to catalyze human evolution, and at the same time became more pious and superior to his beliefs. The creator god of millions of years.

God is him, Brahma is him, Allah is him, and King Apocalypse, who represents the pinnacle of science and the source of evil, is also him.

He has a body close to the perfect material level and a life source accumulated over millions of years. He can easily control any elemental substance, and can control any dark matter element to display magical powers with just a thought. He had mastered the secret of the origin of life that enables all matter to become self-aware a long time ago.

If the chaotic force is the escaped one, it is the true elemental nature obtained by integrating all matter. Then the source of life is the beginning of the Tao that combines all matter to produce the chaotic force. The fundamental source that gives life to all living things. Only by mastering the power to attack the source of life can you have a chance to kill the divine life form.

Lao Li killed Margaret and killed a godhead who had awakened the power of the source of life. Finally caught Xiao Jinzi's attention. Surprisingly, the golden guardian of the Pleiades is not that sophisticated. On the contrary, judging from his words and deeds, he looks like a passionate young man who fanatically pursues power.

None of the regulars at the braised food restaurant knew his identity, and An Yiru was the only one who knew the details from Lao Li. Others only knew that this tall young Westerner was a relative of Lao Li, who was taciturn and arrogant.

That day, a terrorist attack related to Force users occurred in front of the braised food restaurant. A team of urban management teams composed of twenty artificial intelligence life forms disappeared here in an instant. There were no witnesses at the scene, and all monitoring and listening equipment nearby failed at the time of the incident, resulting in slow progress in the investigation of the incident.

Municipal departments organized by artificial intelligence rely too much on technical means, but once these devices fail, they will be left blind. As a last resort, I had no choice but to ask for help from the city's branch of the Force Control Committee. In the end, the person in charge of this case was Han Jun.

At ten o'clock in the morning, there were more and more customers in the braised food restaurant.

News is being broadcast on the holographic TV screen. Sea levels continue to fall, especially in the South Pacific. The land area of the Australian continent has doubled compared to 2035. A large-scale epidemic broke out in Africa. The government believed that the source of the virus came from Central and North America, and the target was directed at Baiyun City. The large-scale promotion of genetically modified crops has achieved fruitful results, and the problem of feeding nine billion people will not be a problem.

Schroeder, the head of the artificial intelligence government, appeared on the screen, preaching eloquently about the ambition of the Guixu Demon Kingdom on the Australian continent to destroy mankind and even the earth. Whether it was a super virus or the drop in sea levels and the continued deterioration of the environment, it was all in line with the wolf's ambition of Guixu. The demons are inseparable. If mankind wants to move forward, it cannot count on the human elites who have left with the task of continuing the species, nor on the God who does not care about the fate of mankind at all. If you want to survive and reproduce in this cruel environment, there is only one way out, which is to evolve a higher level civilization.

Artificial intelligence bodies can not only free humans from diseases and physical desires, but also allow humans to have longer lives and greater adaptability. In the future, humans will definitely leave the earth, and new life forms will help humans adapt to more environments and thus have more choices. For example, Mars is short of oxygen and lacks necessary survival elements, but if it is an artificial intelligence life form, it can adapt to the environment there.

Schroeder got his wish and became the highest leader in the world. It has been half a year since the human elite left this world and the artificial intelligence government was established. The current situation is changing with each passing day. The New World Government has been preaching that war is inevitable and will only become more and more tragic. It is destined that a large number of lives will be eliminated. Those who reject artificial intelligence bodies and cannot awaken to the Force will inevitably bear the brunt and disappear in the long history of mankind.

Wang Hongjun became a little drunk after drinking the second cup. When he heard this, he raised his head and smiled: "What the hell, listen to this old bastard, stuff yourself into that prosthesis. From now on, you can't drink wine, eat meat, or even eat meat." It's not fun to touch women. All day long, besides meditating, I just follow their instructions and perform tasks. Then I have to maintain that body, change batteries, oil, and parts. Is he the only one I want to change to that thing now? Son... Haha!"

"With your physical strength, a small steel cannon is useless." The energetic Yuan Chengde and Jiao Xiaofeng, who had long since changed into artificial intelligence bodies, came over, sat next to Wang Hongjun, and said, "I heard you outside the door. This noise is a source of anger, but if you drink some wine, you won’t be able to find Bei.”

Lao Li cut a plate of chicken, and An Yiru personally brought it over and greeted Lao Yuan with a smile.

Yuan Chengde took it with both hands and put it on the table. He sat down and said, "Brothers and sisters, have you heard? The city's safety rating has been lowered by another level in the new phase. If it continues like this, it won't take more than two years. What are the benefits? Everything is on par with other secondary cities.”

Jiao Xiaofeng said: "The world government is clearly discriminating against us Orientals. It's not surprising. The world government vigorously promotes two things, butt plugs and artificial intelligence prostheses. The total proportion of the population here who accepts butt plug clothes is too low. , those who choose artificial intelligence bodies are mostly those who are critically ill and weak-willed, and Schroeder doesn’t care at all about the economic contribution of a city and how many people it supports.”

"If you ask me, it's better to contact Baiyun City and get some elixirs." Wang Hongjun said: "I definitely want to live a few more years, but I have to live like this. In order to survive, I have to become that man. If you look like a dummy that is neither male nor female, I would rather die cleanly."

"You are acting stupid again." Yuan Chengde said disdainfully: "If you are such an idiot, if the electronic spy of the World Government finds out, it will be difficult for you to survive."

After the establishment of the artificial intelligence world government, the legal coefficients of all previous countries will be invalidated. The New World Government formulated and promulgated a series of new laws and regulations. Under the new legal framework, the human world is divided into three new categories: Force Awakeners, artificial intelligence life forms, and ordinary humans. AI governments do not encourage free private economics, nor do they prohibit it. However, the government's legal power will not provide legal protection for the private economy.

The world government has the ability to provide all human beings with delicious and nutritious nutritional rations to meet everyone's basic needs for food, clothing, housing and transportation. The premise is to wear the body energy collection suit or transform yourself into an artificial intelligence life form. In addition to abiding by the law, others must also have strong self-protection capabilities. If you are unable to protect yourself, even if you are robbed or even killed, you will not receive protection from the government.

In order to establish and maintain the absolute authority of the world government, after the withdrawal of the human elite, the long-planned New World Government immediately launched a large number of electronic eyes all over the world. These electronic eyeliners vary in size and shape. They may be a dog or an inconspicuous flying insect. Specializes in collecting information on opponents who attempt to confront the New World Government. Once similar behavior is discovered, an action team will be dispatched immediately to arrest it.

As the only place outside the law, Baiyun City is designated by the world government as the source of terror in the world and the capital of crime for mankind. Every breath of air that came out of it carried an element of crime. Any attempt to contact you will be considered a criminal offence. For some unknown reason, Schroeder's artificial intelligence world government is obviously more afraid of Baiyun City than the underground organizations of fanatical religious believers.

"If you die, you will die. Life is boring. Sometimes I think about it, it would be better to die at once." Wang Hongjun said not to be outdone.

"Promise." Jiao Xiaofeng said: "I can still survive despite my virtues. You are so good at it but you want to die. I really look down on you."

An Yiru asked with a smile: "Jiao Xiaofeng, why are you so free today? Don't you need to meditate and pay tribute?"

Jiao Xiaofeng said: "No need. Last time I meditated according to the method taught by your husband. This year's share was completed ahead of schedule." He also said: "All artificial intelligence life forms have an intelligent body management core at the heart. Meditation is to be able to Collect a substance that looks like pheromones from the universe. There is an energy bar on the management core. As long as that is full, the mission for this year will be completed."

An Yiru nodded, then turned to Yuan Chengde and asked, "Brother Yuan is worried that the safety rating has been lowered and the Magic City will enter a stage of strict control, right?"

Yuan Chengde nodded and said: "That's it." Then he frowned and said worriedly: "It's okay to lower the material ration. After all, we still have some special channels, but if secondary control measures are implemented, our private material exchanges will The behavior will become illegal, which will affect the livelihood of many people, and more people will wear that butt plug as a last resort."

"That monster Lei Yiming has been waiting for this opportunity." Jiao Xiaofeng sighed and said: "This monster did not leave with the elite humans of the three major allies, but stayed and accepted the transformation of the artificial intelligence government. He himself is a micro-nano The world's chief scientist with femtotechnology. The body created after combining Schroeder's transformation technology is said to be no longer inferior to Schroeder. This hardcore traitor is now the governor of the Southeast Division of Greater China and has won Schroeder's trust. , the power and strength will only become stronger and stronger, I think Brother Yuan has little chance to avenge this revenge."

"I've thought about it for a long time." Lao Yuan said indifferently: "It's better to let things happen. If it's too forced, it may involve more brothers and friends."

"His fault, after all, we Easterners are the most unlucky." Wang Hongjun said angrily: "Those people in the Force User Association speak human words on the surface, but they haven't done many human things in private. Son, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many fucking laws passed against us.”

"The most irritating thing is that many laws enacted by the world government do not treat everyone equally. For example, if you are also guilty of religious worship, those who believe in Chinese Taoism will be punished with death. They will not even be given the opportunity to be transformed into artificial intelligence. Those who believe in Buddhism will be transformed Adults become artificial bodies, but those Westerners who believe in Christ and Allah only need to wear butt plugs and clothes." Yuan Chengde also complained with great dissatisfaction.

Lao Li glanced at Xiao Jinzi, who had been sitting silently in the back, and said: "It shows that Schroeder is also a soft, bullying, and fearful master. The omniscient and omnipotent God that Westerners worship and believe in is very difficult." Awesome, he was afraid that cutting off other people's incense would cause big trouble, so he didn't dare to make too many mistakes. Our local Taoism is not a personality cult. If you practice the right way, you will have a great chance of awakening high-level force. If there are too many people like this, it will definitely be detrimental to them."

Wang Hongjun said angrily: "If this is really the case, I might as well believe in that foreign god." As he spoke, he picked up the wine bottle in front of him, shook it, and then put it down in disappointment.

Lao Li smiled and said, "You are a drunkard and a woman, but people still look down on you." Then he handed him a bottle of wine and a plate of beef with soy sauce.

Wang Hongjun was a little embarrassed and refused: "That's enough, that's about it. If you do this every day, I'm afraid your old skills will make me poor."

The Demon Kingdom of Guixu is watching with eager eyes, plague is rampant, and breeding and planting activities are greatly restricted. Private economies are not protected by law, but must endure legal restrictions. Pure meat products like this must go through extremely strict quarantine and disinfection procedures before they can enter the city. Because of its rarity, its price can only be measured in gold.

Lao Li and An Yiru naturally have ways to avoid these restrictions.

An Yiru's farm on the outskirts of the city has lush green agriculture and large-scale breeding farms. She can cause plants to grow rapidly, but she cannot make animals grow wildly. In order to make the livestock in the breeding farm grow better, Lao Li made a special trip to the Australian Demonic Country, captured a demon with the force of life, took his elixir, and asked Long Gongming to make a material release. A device that releases the life force of Danzhu to the livestock in the pasture.

The elixir contains eight-level peak vitality elemental substances. It only takes a little bit of energy to grow hundreds of calves into big fat cows with excellent meat. Moreover, the meat quality of this kind of cattle is excellent, and the taste and taste are top-notch.

Wang Hongjun, who didn't know the details, thought that this thing must be very rare and rare.

An Yiru said: "Don't worry about eating and drinking. We have channels in Eastern Siberia. This thing is not as precious as you think. Those in the World Government have to give it face."

Yuan Chengde said: "You two are still very knowledgeable. In these days, it is becoming more and more difficult to eat a meal that can be eaten by one person." After a pause, he added: "I still remember the old Wu you sent to me. Bar?"

Lao Li nodded and asked, "What's wrong with him?"

"Dead!" Yuan Chengde sighed and said: "This stubborn thing was tortured to death by those blind artificial intelligence monsters just for a bite of braised pig intestines. His heart was not very good to begin with, and he had He had high blood pressure, and those people forced him to wear those butt-plug clothes, and he was tortured to death during the disinfection and gastric lavage."

"Isn't there any rescue?" An Yiru asked with a frown.

Jiao Xiaofeng said angrily: "Those heartless things, not only their bodies have been transformed, but their minds have also been transformed into inhuman beasts."

Xiao Jinzi had been sitting there listening silently, confused as to why these nonsense deserved so much attention from someone like Lao Li. When he thought about it, if Lao Li wanted to help these people, he could smash the New World Government to pieces in a snap. Whether it's Schroeder, who claims to have mastered the ninth level of the Force and can survive in space, or Uranus, who has the immortality of a god, they all just have to tuck their tails and run away.

Lao Li said: "Life and death are determined by destiny. People of all ages have died in recent years. It's good that our brothers can still live with their beards and tails intact."

Jiao Xiaofeng said: "The problem is that they won't let me. If the city implements secondary control, I think your braised food restaurant will also have to close down."

Lao Li smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. If you don't want to get out of the way, let's go home and continue to do it. Anyway, we don't have to rely on this to survive."

"Hey, even you said that, so I don't have to think about Xiao Meng's supermarket plan." Wang Hongjun said: "She sold two shops, got a batch of gold coins from Shen Laocai, and plans to cooperate with The Force Awakens We will cooperate with the association to build a chain of supermarkets under Fenglinwan, specifically to provide the supplies needed for those who are awakened by the Force."

"Shen Laocai?" Lao Li asked, "Is it the Shen family from before?"

An Yiru said: "Yes, that's the Shen family. They spent almost all their money trying to get a ride on the elite immigration plan at all costs. After the failure, they became the first batch of ordinary humans to be transformed by artificial intelligence. He also became the regional general agent of electronic components designated by the new government, and in less than a year he became the richest man in the city."

"New era, new life!" Lao Li sighed: "The world is still the same."

Xiao Jinzi suddenly interrupted and asked: "Cousin-in-law, what is Jianghu?"

Lao Li smiled at him and said: "Jianghu is a special interpersonal circle. It has a set of rules that are not recognized by legal provisions. If a person grows up in this circle, he will belong to this circle for his whole life."

"I bet you can speak Chinese?" Jiao Xiaofeng asked curiously: "I haven't been here for several days. When did you get a foreign brother-in-law?"

Old Li said: "Diana's relative is my daughter's cousin. Of course she is a relative. Don't worry, she is very reliable."

Jiao Xiaofeng said: "What should I worry about? I've gotten to this point. This artificial intelligence-modified body has no sense of smell or taste. The sense of touch depends entirely on the core sensing device. Even if I hold the most beautiful girl in the world, I can't do it." I feel excited, and now the only thing left for me is to live.”

An Yiru looked at Xiao Jinzi and asked, "Do you want some beef?"

Xiao Jinzi was actually too lazy to talk to her, but he had been taking care of her for the past few days, and seeing that Lao Li always respected An Yiru, so he didn't want to lose too much, so he followed the Pleiades' etiquette for treating women and reluctantly faced this ant-like subgene. The creature responded: "Thank you, no need."

Lao Li said: "Don't worry, it's not poisonous."

Xiao Jinzi rolled his eyes at the guy and said, "You might as well give it a try. What kind of poison can poison me?"

Lao Li was just about to say that when you learn to taste the human touch in these foods, you will realize that the most powerful poisons in the world are actually caused by the mind. When he said the words, his heart suddenly moved, and he turned to An Yiru and said: "You represent I'm chatting with my brothers. I have something to do and I'll go out for a while." He looked at Xiao Jinzi again, "Do you want to come with us?"

Xiao Jinzi sat still and said, "I'm not interested in other people's affairs."

Lao Li shrugged and said with a smile: "Okay, give me some face and do nothing." After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the door.

Outside the alley is the main street, and after passing through it, you will reach the commercial street where Meng Fanbing used to open a store.

Lao Li stood on the top of a nearby building and paid attention to what was going on below.

A strange man wearing a strange black feather costume, with runes tattooed on his face and neck, and exaggerated gold rings on his nose and ears, was facing the street with his back to the door, forming a confrontation with the two groups. One group of people all wear the same clothes, and all have expressionless faces and dead fish eyes. They are the law enforcement team of artificial intelligence life forms. Another group of people were Force Awakeners with different costumes who looked like ordinary humans. The leader was Han Jun.

Next to Han Jun's left leader were two young men wearing the same purple and gold femtocell material armor. They were Li Mubai and Shen Qingmei.

The captain of the artificial intelligence law enforcement team was a stout man. He read out to the black-feathered weirdo meticulously: "Your identification information does not comply with the law. We will take you back to the city intelligent management center in accordance with relevant regulations. If If you dare to resist during this process, we will take coercive measures against you, and we cannot guarantee that your life rights will not be damaged."

In principle, the so-called artificial intelligence body is also transformed according to the person's original appearance. Only those who spend a lot of money can get privately customized exquisite bodies. And for people with special functions, there is also a perfect body. This guy looks like he's obviously a bargain.

"Captain Gao, this is a case pursued by our Force Awakeners Association. Is it appropriate for you to interfere like this?" Han Jun asked without mercy.

"This is the central area of the Magic City. It falls under the management of our fifth detachment. The law gives me the power. All illegal activities that occur here are within my jurisdiction." The short and fat man known as Captain Gao responded forcefully. Said: "Now I suspect that this person is an alien life form from Guixu. Of course, I must perform my duties in accordance with relevant regulations!"

Just as Han Jun was about to speak again, Li Mubai on the side suddenly said: "Since that's the case, let him execute it. We can wait and see first. Maybe he will make up his mind after a while." As he said this, he pulled the man beside him. Shen Qingmei took two steps back.

The black-feathered monster who had been forced into a blind corner and remained motionless suddenly came to life. His originally pitch-black eyes turned fiery red in an instant, and his eyes were like two will-o'-the-wisps jumping around. He glanced at Captain Gao out of the corner of his eye.

"All members of the law enforcement team listen to my order and prepare weapons!" Captain Gao is not afraid of the opponent's terrifying arrogance, not because of his courage, but because artificial intelligence life forms do not have this emotional need. Although he is called a life form, many of his Behavior must strictly follow the program settings. Upon hearing the order, all members of the law enforcement team displayed a multifunctional quantum-level weapon.

This is the latest individual weapon from the Dungeon Weapon R&D Base, specially designed for Force Awakeners and advanced beings with Force abilities. As long as there is a chance to take action, the Force Awakener of the seventh level of Dzogchen will be surely eliminated.

The core of the artificial intelligence body has an intelligent perception system that simulates the nervous system of a high-level Force Awakener. Both the reaction speed and the shooting speed are not inferior to those of Force Awakeners above level four. Coupled with the advantages of coordinated operations and the weapons in hand, it is enough to deal with most risks and crises in the city.

The black-feathered monster remained silent. He didn't even look at the members of the artificial intelligence law enforcement team. His main energy was always focused on Li Mubai and Shen Qingmei. As the weapons in the hands of the members of the law enforcement team lit up, a cloud of black energy spread out from his body and turned into countless black-feathered eagles, spreading out to attack the members of the law enforcement team. But his whole person disappeared in that black air... (End of chapter)
