Bionic Era

"So you have a source of income."

Lu Wen looked at Xu Eryi calmly.

"That's right, after all, there are always some stupid outsiders who come here, and they are very easy to deceive, a real person..." Xu Eryi said with a smile: "In the eyes of those organization leaders, it is quite valuable. "

"How to say?"

"You'll know when the time comes."

Two young men came forward to check Lu Wen's body, but found no weapons.

Then he tied his hands behind his back with a wire.

"Pay attention to his spider. It looks like a mechanical pet, but its legs and feet are very sharp. It needs to be tied up."

A group of young people worked hard for a long time, and finally caught Lu Wen's spider.

Like tying a crab, all eight legs are tied up.

Then, one person and one spider were taken into a dilapidated van.

Xu Eryi was in charge of driving.

The two youths looked at Lu Wen and Spider to prevent them from escaping.

The rest continued to wait in that dilapidated factory.

"Actually, I have a lot of money. How about I transfer some to you and you let me go?"

"Hehe, I'm not a fool. The funds of you rich people are specially operated by someone. Once there is an abnormality in the account, someone will track it down here. By then, none of us brothers will be able to escape."

"So you were just trying to grab some cash at first?"

"Yes, originally you only need to withdraw a little cash to save yourself from bankruptcy, but you're going to kill yourself. It just so happens that I haven't done this business for a long time."

The law and order problem in Baker City was more serious than Lu Wen imagined.

Can tolerate this happening for a long time.

This law and order...

Equivalent to no.

"Has the executive bureau never investigated you for doing such a thing?"

"Can the executive bureau check it out?" Xu Er glanced at the rearview mirror of the car, "There are a large number of missing persons cases every week. This is Baker City, and this kind of cases is the most common."

"Do you know where I come from?"

"Mowu City? Right, since I was a child, I heard that there are many rich people in Mowu City, and the law and order are good, but I was born in this garbage-like city!"

Dissatisfied with birth.

Something pretentious.

I have a certain longing for Mowu City.

Based on these points, Lu Wen had a way to let Xu Eryi let him go.

But he didn't.

Xu Er only had a general understanding of Baker City. Living at the bottom of society, Lu Wen needed to find someone with a slightly higher level.

"The city is very polluted, much worse than Mou City."

Lu Wen leaned against the window.

Although his hands were tied behind his back, he was not restricted too much.

Even though most of the resources have been exhausted, the huge chimneys that go straight into the sky are still spewing out thick smoke and dust.

The vehicles are also old-fashioned and dilapidated.

The black smoke from the exhaust forced passers-by to cover their mouths and noses.

Disused railway tracks criss-cross the road.

Gravel and asphalt slag littered the tracks.

These tracks used to transport a large amount of materials, and they came and went every day. The black smoke from the locomotive continued to rise with the economic development, making the city extremely prosperous.

"boom."

The dilapidated van was crushed on the rails, and the whole vehicle shook.

"I don't know what the old men in the parliament are doing. After so many years, why didn't they dig out the railroad tracks on the road? My brains will be shaken out."

Xu Eryi drove the car, complaining non-stop.

The reddish black pipes are also a relic of the times.

People paint the pipes red.

The red paint is peeling off, the rain has corroded the pipes, and the rust is stained.

People shoveled off the rust and painted red again...

This process was repeated for many years.

till the end.

The factories closed down, the once bright lights dimmed one by one, the tall iron towers were no longer maintained, and the roar of the trains on the tracks was only silence.

Later people walked in the rusty steel city, and occasionally they could learn about the prosperity of the past from the mouths of the older generation.

If that's the case, the city can still be saved.

Tourism can be developed.

Transform those abandoned factories to attract people from other cities to visit.

Just like the two cities in the north attract tourists through the snow scene in winter.

But this city just can't do it.

The high crime rate deters tourists.

"arrive."

The van was parked in front of a bar.

The signboard of the bar is also made of broken iron sheets, and several crooked light tubes are fixed on the iron sheets, in various colors, but the lights are very dim.

"Come down!"

Two young people.

One pushed and pushed Wen Wen, and the other held the spider in his hand.

The mechanical spider seemed to be dead, its eyes were closed, and its eight legs were tied together.

Xu Eryi pushed open the creaking iron door.

Colorful lights shone out, followed by strong heavy metal music.

Lu Wen looked at those shaking their heads and felt like a group of zombies.

"I'm actually curious. How much is a modified person like me usually worth?"

"Five digits."

"A life is only worth five figures? If you disassemble it yourself, those parts and organs will bring you much more profit than selling them directly."

"We don't have that technology."

Everyone walked towards the inside of the bar.

Go through the noisy area to the area behind waiting for the elevator.

In this city, even the elevators are rusty.

The stainless steel that was agreed upon can get rusty. How many years has it been since it was replaced?

"Ding--"

There was a sound and the elevator doors opened.

Xu Eryi directly pressed the top floor, the twenty-third floor.

The top floor is not what Lu Wen imagined.

"The arena?"

Black exterior glass.

Gray cement wall.

Light tubes of various colors hang from the ceiling.

There is also a simple bar counter, behind which are neatly placed various types of drinks.

Several arenas were placed on the concrete floor.

Very rough decor.

The bionic human parts, limbs, internal organs, heads, etc., are scattered all over the place, most of which are military types.

Lu Wen remembered what Huang Liang said before he escaped from Baker City, he was caught and went to the underground arena to fight his life for the rich people to watch and entertain.

"It turns out that the underground ring is not necessarily underground."

This location is on the top floor.

Unobscured.

Through the glass of the outer wall, you can see the dark night and dark red of Siye.

One of the arenas is staging a battle of life and death.

Two modified androids are desperately attacking each other.

Surrounded by a group of people in suits and leather shoes, they took out cash from their pockets and threw it on the waiter's plate, as a bet.

"Red blood?"

Lu Wen frowned.

Not two androids, one of which is a cyborg.

A short, fat man walked towards him, smiling, his flesh trembling with his steps.

"Xiaoyu, you haven't brought any fresh goods for a long time," said the fat man.

"Qi Ye, the goods this time are not simple." Yu Eryi changed a very humble smile, "This man is from Mowu City, and he is a rich man."

"Oh? Mowu City..."

The fat man stepped forward and looked at Lu Wen carefully.

"Okay, you guys go back first, come over tomorrow to get the money."

He said to the second class.

Upon hearing the word money, Yu Eryi smiled even more humbly.

He patted Lu Wen on the shoulder and said in a slightly regretful tone: "My lord, times have changed. This is not a place you are familiar with. Accept your fate."

After finishing speaking, he was about to turn around and leave with the other two youths.

The spiders were randomly thrown on the ground by them.

Lu Wen smiled.

Order issued.

The mechanical spider suddenly opened its eyes, and there was a bit of cruelty in the scarlet eyes.

"Little man, times have not changed."
