Chapter 101: reality rally

When they were talking, An Wujiu looked around for Noah, but at first he didn't find her, and finally saw her small back in a small corner of the warehouse.

Strangely, Noah was holding the wall with one hand and covering his mouth with the other hand, as if he was coughing.

An Wujiu walked towards her. He was trained, and his footsteps were much softer than ordinary people, so when his hand was placed on Noah's shoulder, she trembled in fright.

"What's wrong?" An Wujiu vaguely saw the redness in her palm, and was very concerned, "Noah, are you sick?"

Noah clenched his hands and shook his head at An Wujiu, "It's fine."

She took An Wujiu's hand with the other hand, "Brother Wujiu, let's go back quickly, I don't want to stay in this place anymore."

The temperature of Noah's hand was extremely cold, An Wujiu knew that something was wrong with her, but Noah didn't seem to want to say it now, An Wujiu had no choice but to not mention this for now, planning to take her back and let Zhong Yirou check it out.

"If you feel uncomfortable, tell brother." An Wujiu spoke softly and lowered his head to her.

Noah nodded obediently, "Well, I know."

Zhou Yijue didn't intend to go with them, nor did he say goodbye, and left alone. An Wujiu and his party took Wu You's aircraft back to the city. There were a lot of people and it seemed a bit crowded. Wu You suggested that An Wujiu should sit with Noah in his arms.

"No need." Shen Ti directly refused, "I'll hug."

Nanshan gently asked Noah to go over, "Go to brother Shen Ti..."

But Shen Ti said: "What I said is that I am safe and innocent."

Everyone was speechless.

Wu You: "...do you know how tall you two are and occupy more space?"

In the end, it was An Wujiu who smoothed things over, no one hugged anyone, and everyone squeezed together and barely sat down.

Shen Ti's mouth was still unforgiving, "Xiaoyou, you said that you have earned so much with your brother Wujiu, can't you just buy a new one?"

"Shut up," Wu You stared straight ahead coldly, "Also, don't call me Xiaoyou."

Shen Ti yelled twice more on purpose, with nine twists and eighteen twists in his tone, for fear that Wu You would not die of anger.

An Wujiu was amused by them, turned his head and looked out of the window, the scenery gradually changed from the endless wilderness to the high-rise buildings in the city, with tired virtual projections and overly cluttered lights.

But he vaguely felt that something was not right, it seemed that there were many fewer people on the street than before, and it seemed a little deserted, but An Wujiu could faintly hear some strange sounds coming from a distance, very like a crowd gathering The slogan chanted by the team.

Nan Shan opened the window next to him, and it seemed that she heard these voices as well.

After the windows were lowered, the slogans became clearer, but the language they spoke was not something they could understand.

"What's going on in front?" Noah pointed to the law enforcement aircraft with flashing lights in the sky ahead, "It seems like it won't pass."

Wu You turned on the air radio. Indeed, it was the air traffic police who ordered them to stop flying on the current air section because there was an unregistered large-scale rally and parade.

An Wujiu looked down, there were so many people here that they almost completely blocked the entire surface road, seriously affecting the traffic.

"I have no choice, I can only stop nearby, let's walk over."

Wu You turned the aircraft around and found a place where there were not so many people to land and stop. Everyone came out and came to the road just now from the mooring, the 15th Avenue.

People on the road have different skin colors, including men, women and children, and some of them are holding self-made signs written in languages they don't understand. They not only gathered, but even clashed with the police who came to evacuate the control. Both sides fought and others shouted loudly, like a collective demonstration.

Nan Shan didn't understand why there was such a big conflict suddenly when she was fine the last time she came back. The crowd was crowded, he was afraid that the crowd would be scattered, so he turned his head and saw An Wujiu's disbelieving eyes.

"What's wrong?"

Shen Ti also found something wrong.

Although the people here look of all kinds, there are sun symbols on their hand-written boards, which are symbols that often appear in the altar, and are very similar to the one on his Adam's apple.

In addition, these people have blue dots on their bodies, and there is a strange blue light in their eyes.

"It's not quite right," An Wujiu frowned, and muttered, "Has his power penetrated from the altar to reality?"

Shen Ti naturally knew who An Wujiu was talking about, "Let's go out first."

He pulled everyone away from the gathered crowd and turned into another road with relatively few people.

Noah said suddenly, "The words they wrote down are the same as those in the book last time."

Wu You asked, "Book?"

"It's the book that the old man knocked on the door and delivered to sister Erci's house." Noah explained.

All these clues point to the evil god, the watcher behind the altar, the blue flame waiting to be sacrificed. As long as An Wujiu thinks of him, he will think of his father, and think of those people who have gone crazy because of this monster.

He knows very well that no one can be the savior, and this is beyond self-control.

But he really didn't want even one more person in the world to follow in the footsteps of his family.

It may not be possible to solve this matter now, but if you want to do something, I'm afraid you still have to start with Chauvin.

"Let's go to Sister Erci first," Wu You said to everyone, "I just contacted her."

This is a good news for them to celebrate, because Yang Erci is still alive, but after witnessing the scene just now, everyone's celebration has been reduced by half, and they are trapped in deep doubts.

After a lot of twists and turns, they arrived at Yang Erci's apartment. Those fanatical gathering elements had already spread to the downstairs of this apartment building. When An Wujiu and the others passed by, they quickly walked up to them holding a sign, mixing English and Chinese. Speaking some strange language, as if forcing them to accept something.

At first no one wanted to do anything to them, until one of the strong men grabbed An Wujiu's injured hand, Shen Ti ruthlessly pulled the other's collar, and warned them with a cold face.

To the surprise of others, what Shen Ti said was very similar to theirs just now.

And the other party left immediately after hearing Shen Ti's words.

"What did you say?" Wu You was a little suspicious of Shen Ti's performance just now, "You know this language?"

"I just learned it." Shen Ti finished casually, took An Wujiu's hand to check, after confirming that everything was fine, he took his other hand and boarded the elevator with everyone.

If it were another person, this kind of rhetoric would be absolutely unacceptable, but Shen Ti is indeed good at everything, no matter how strange things happen to him, it doesn't seem so strange.

But An Wujiu was clear about it, but Shen Ti didn't seem to want everyone to discover the fact that he was not human, so he could only keep silent and mention it when he was alone.

The news happened to be playing on the old screen in the elevator, and the AI announcer reported the mass rally that had just happened.

"In order to avoid accidents, citizens are requested to reduce travel today!"

The safety issues were emphasized several times, and the news began to mention the investigation of the background of the incident so far. According to them, the police of the local bureau conducted an information collection and census of all the people who participated in the rally as soon as the rally happened, and The method of arrest is to try to find out the reasons for the large-scale demonstrations and violent attacks on others by the other party, but it is difficult for the arrested persons to communicate due to language barriers. At present, language experts have been invited to help the police detect it.

"It is worth noting that in the list of rally participants released by the police, we found a pattern. Many of them were defenders in the recent 'debriding nanorobot pollution incident', but according to the feedback from Gilias , They have already compensated the victims of the previous incident with money and promised to give them life-long after-sales service, so will the time of this rally be the second time for the victims of the previous incident to unite to defend their rights... "

The elevator door opened, and An Wujiu began to search for the nano-robot accidents mentioned in the news, only then did he know that there had been some clinical medical accidents one after another since last month. What these people have in common is that they all use Gillias Biotechnology's assisted medical product, a new type of nanorobot that assists in debridement.

The door of the apartment opened, and it was Zhong Yirou who opened the door, "You are here."

Shen Ti deliberately teased her, "Xiao Rourou, I knew you were still alive."

"That's right." Zhong Yirou leaned against the door, "I haven't saved enough money yet, so of course I won't die so easily. Come in, Erci is waiting for you."

An Wujiu directly asked Zhong Yirou about the nano-robot incident, and she wrapped the shawl tightly around her body, "I only found out about this after I appeared in the game yesterday."

"Sister Yirou, you guys came out yesterday." Noah took off his shoes and went in front of her.

"Yes." Zhong Yirou knelt down and touched Noah's face, "My sister is amazing."

Noah nodded, "Sister Erci is amazing."

She ran away after speaking.

"No, sister Erci is amazing, am I not?" Zhong Yirou stared at Noah's back and blamed, then stood up, and said to An Wujiu: "It's a bit strange to say this. Chauvin is related, so I checked it out, and found that this technology company has no direct relationship with Chauvin."

The two walked to the living room, An Wujiu saw Yang Erci coming out of the study, nodded to her, and then asked Zhong Yirou, "The more it doesn't matter, the weirder it feels."

"I think so too, so I checked in another direction." Zhong Yirou walked to the kitchen, poured him a cup of nutritious vegetable juice that he had just squeezed out of a mug, and handed it to An Wujiu.

An Wujiu was thinking about something, so he took it without looking at it, and didn't even lower his head to see what the strange color of the liquid in the cup was.

"From the hospital?"

Zhong Yirou nodded, "Yes, I went to see the hospitals where the accident happened, and almost all of them were sponsored by Chauvin Company. The grades of these hospitals range from good to bad, but it is impossible for them to purchase this kind of equipment uniformly. Strange. And they use this nanorobot very frequently, almost every clinical operation, so in just one or two months, the number of victims has increased sharply. These people polluted by nanorobots Generally, they will be comatose, vomit, spit out a lot of blood, internal organs are damaged, especially the heart, and they can also talk nonsense, have abnormal mental reactions, be irritable, easy to conflict with others, and those who were infected with the previous batch of prosthesis People are similar."

Hearing this, An Wujiu felt very strange. Could it be that the last discussion on missionary work really became a prophecy? The missionary methods they used were really no longer limited to publicity materials and word of mouth, but focused on The magnitude shifts to technology.

Zhong Yirou was still talking, saw Shen Ti walking towards them, saw the cup in An Wujiu's hand, took it directly, and said to An Wujiu, "How do you know I want to drink water?"

"no… "

Before An Wujiu finished speaking, Shen Ti drank the unknown liquid in the cup and put down the cup, his expression was not right.

"How is it?" Zhong Yirou asked enthusiastically for feedback, "Is it delicious? It's a special drink I made."

Shen Ti almost recited it when he heard it, and quickly ran to the sink to vomit.

"What the hell are you treating my drink like that!"

An Wujiu also laughed.

"Why didn't you say you did it earlier!" Shen Ti coughed a few times, "I've never drank something so nasty!"

Wu You on the sofa gloated, "It deserves it."

Zhong Yirou took a sip by herself, "It's not bad, it's all expensive ingredients..." She turned to find the next target, "Are you thirsty, Nanshan? I'll pour you a glass."

Nan Shan, who had been smiling all the time, immediately changed her expression, "Ah, I just..."

Wu You mercilessly refused in advance, "I don't want it."

"No," Shen Ti pointed to Wu You to instruct Zhong Yirou, "You must pour a big cup full for your dear brother."

Everyone was noisy, and the atmosphere was warm, as if there had never been any cruel competition, and they didn't escape from death, but they were just friends who had been with each other for many years, and accompanied each other.

Through the frolicking crowd, An Wujiu looked at Yang Erci who was leaning on the sofa.

There was probably a certain degree of tacit understanding, Yang Erci also turned his face away, and happened to meet his gaze. She understood the emotion in An Wujiu's eyes, got up and walked towards him.

"What happened this time?" Yang Erci asked very casually.

An Wujiu didn't know what to say, where to start.

"Yeah." He paused, "Let's find a place to chat."

Seeing his serious expression, Yang Erci frowned, noticing something.
