From scrap mecha to sci-fi heaven

"Keep working hard. I'm going out for a while."

After taking a shower and putting on a jacket and windbreaker with a hood, Lin Yu said goodbye to Xue Siqiao and the others and went out.

The modification of the Flying General and the production of the Tianjian tactical cruise missile have been completed. The only thing left is to complete the construction and testing of the Tiandun ultra-long-range support platform.

The technology and drawings have been completed long ago, and the rest is to follow the routine. There is no need for him to stay here. Wang Xiaoliu and the others can follow the map.

Before it gets dark, he plans to go to the address given by Old Man Zhang.

The Happy Family Elderly Apartment is actually a nursing home, a welfare institution under the Pilots Association.

It's not that high-standard for this institution. It is just a welfare project with more face than practical value.

But after all, it is affiliated with the Pilots Association, and the people living in it are all tough characters such as pilots or pilots' logistics followers, and generally no one dares to touch bad luck.

At least there will be no corruption or abuse.

However, for a highly modernized city, day and night are obviously never a problem.

The lower city area is covered by shadows all year round, and the lighting depends entirely on various street lamps and neon lights, so there is basically no difference between day and night.

The sign of [Happy Family Senior Apartment] is very conspicuous.

There are professional caregivers serving all day, medical teams on call at any time, meals and physical examinations are arranged properly, and there are entertainment activities every now and then, and you can get in touch with your peers...

In this highly intelligent era, living alone is completely cold.

With the arrival reminder of the autonomous driving AI, Lin Yu pushed the door and got off.

Many people don't go out at all, and they may not know who lives next door. Whether it is shopping or dealing with various things, they are facing machines and AI, and their children are often busy with work.

Smart doorman, unmanned, swipe card to enter.

The infrastructure of the upper city area is more advanced and advanced, and energy is spared. Many places, especially buildings, are often lit as brightly as day, and there is no need to worry about the difference between day and night.

Let's get back to the topic.

The car stopped at the main entrance.

When Lin Yu went out, it was actually sunset.

He stopped an unmanned taxi and drove all the way from the lower city to the upper city. After driving for a long distance, he finally stopped in a relatively remote and not very prosperous area in the upper city.

It was probably similar to a combination of an apartment complex and a hospital inpatient department.

"Dear guest, we have arrived at your destination - Happy Family Senior Apartment."

"Thank you for choosing this vehicle. Dingling Clang Automobile Transport Company looks forward to serving you next time..."

It's not that there are no children to support them, but the trend or habit of living in a nursing home is very popular and common in the Blue Star Federation.

Therefore, many retired pilots and mecha crew members will choose to live in it.

From the outside, this place actually looks more like an apartment complex, but the walls and security are more strict, and there are many staff and departments.

It can be said that as long as you have money, the quality of life in a nursing home is far better than living alone.

Therefore, there are very few elderly people who choose to live alone.

Relying on the authority of Thunder Strike, Lin Yu had no obstacles.

Through the gate, there were some public areas inside, but the greening level was no different from that of the forest park. After entering it, even the air was more than one level fresher.

Occasionally, some staff members wearing security or nursing uniforms passed by on the way.

But since Lin Yu was able to pass the gate, he was naturally treated as a family member visiting relatives and did not attract any extra attention.

As for strange costumes, there are many people in this world who have transformed themselves into strange shapes, let alone strange costumes.

All the way was unobstructed. Not far ahead, we came to a small park, where many old men and women happened to gather.

"Hahaha, Mahas, you're still calling yourself a pilot, but you can't even beat old Zhou."

"It was a mistake, that was a mistake, come again!"

"Alas, I'm getting old, I could have ended the fight with a left kick and a right kick, but my brain didn't react."

"No, no, I think there's something wrong with the design of this game, if this is in reality, I'll kill you if your missile can take off."

Lin Yu leaned over to take a look and laughed even more.

These old men and women are quite fashionable, actually playing online games.

It's not a mecha battle, but it's not much different, basically it's a game based on mecha battles with some PVE and upgrade elements stitched together.

The equipment these people use is also not ordinary, it's some kind of lightweight simple exoskeleton, with only a basic frame but no armor shell, it's a special equipment specially made for assisting actions and interactive control.

Of course, a large part of them have directly undergone prosthetic transformation, or used invasive equipment, etc., all kinds of weird looks.

If Lin Yu were to comment on this scene, he would only say that it was very cyberpunk.

But it would be understandable if you thought about it again.

The Blue Star Federation had already entered the intelligent era for many years, and these people had grown up with various electronic devices and games.

And then they were engaged in the pilot-related industry, so they could accumulate some wealth, and it was common for them to make some modifications to improve their strength or life-saving abilities.

In this way, it was really common for these old men and women to get together to play games, and it was just that he, a time traveler, was not surprised by the rare ideas.

"Let me see... the famous hacker Dead Sea Ghost, whose real name is Zhao Jiande, um, the bald guy in the plaid shirt opposite is him."

"Slok, the electronic warfare expert of the former A-level mecha group Eternal Heart, happens to be the white old man next to Zhao Jiande..."

After quickly scanning and comparing the many old men and women who were "fighting" against each other, Lin Yu quickly found several candidates recommended by old man Zhang.

However, he did not come forward to introduce himself or to win over the intention, but continued to wander around this elderly apartment community.

After looking at several buildings around and following the layout of some pipelines, it didn't take long for Lin Yu to find the home switch of the community network.

A light touch.

The main network cable fell off.

Well, he swore that he really touched it lightly.

"Fuck! Why is the network disconnected! Why is the network disconnected! I just killed the BOSS!"

"What the hell, I'm about to win! Kalba, you're playing dirty when you can't beat me, right?"

"It's not me. I'm not the only network expert here, and I'm a network engineer, not a hacker! I think it's old man Zhao."

"You're talking nonsense! The network disconnection is of course signal interference! Why don't you ask that old bastard Slok!"

The small park not far away suddenly heard a pig-killing scream, followed by a series of quarrels.

Then footsteps were heard coming.

It seemed that a white old man was recommended to check the network cable.

Lin Yu immediately made up for the mistake he made accidentally and quickly reconnected the main network cable.

At the same time, he felt it was difficult to explain to the old men and women, worried that they would get angry after misunderstanding him, so he dodged and hid in a corner.

The white old man came over, checked it, found that there was no problem, and walked away mumbling.

"Maybe it wasn't connected properly just now, I have to confirm it."

Lin Yu walked out of his hiding place, thought seriously for two seconds, and turned on the switch again.

Touched it lightly.

The interface of the main network cable accidentally fell out again.

"Which company produced this? The quality is so poor, bad review, never choose this company in the future."

Lin Yu quickly connected the network cable again.

After connecting, he took back his hand, but accidentally touched it lightly again.

"Why is the network disconnected again!!!"
