Global wasteland: I am as good as a god with a machine

Chapter Thirty-Six: The Deepest Fear of Human Nature

As the capital of the coalition government, Kyoto has very strict security in several control areas.

Neither Nan Ci nor Wu Mian had legal status. In order to avoid being pursued by the Wolf King Society, they took a bus to the next city, and then started taking short-distance transportation to make a detour.

It was not until evening that the two successfully returned to the Linjiang garbage dump.

Of the seven people who originally went out to perform the mission, only three came back alive. Although the other two escaped from the general siege in the morning, they were inspected when they entered the city. One of them died in a confrontation with the police.

The first thing Nan Ci did when she returned to the base was to go to Uncle Min to check whether Zhu Tao's quantum brain was damaged. Wu Mian saw that she was depressed because of the deaths of several comrades and did not stay by her side, so he beat her.

After saying hello, he returned to his residence.

Wu Mian had just approached his residence. Li Tong, who was waiting in the house, heard footsteps and hurriedly came out to confirm that Wu Mian was fine. A flash of joy flashed in his eyes: "Brother Mian, you went out to do errands, are you not injured?"

Wu Mian didn't want this innocent little girl to know what he was doing, so he responded calmly: "What we do is not as dangerous as you think."

"No matter what, it will be great if you can come back safely."

Li Tong took Wu Mian's wrist and walked into the room: "Follow me, I want to give you a surprise."

When Wu Mian entered the room, it was already kept spotless by Li Tong, and Li Tong pointed to the cake on the table and said to Wu Mian: "Brother Mian, this is my gift to you."

Wu Mian saw the cake on the table and frowned slightly: "The resources in the garbage dump are poor and there are no ingredients for making cakes. Where did you get this?"

"I went to the street today to draw portraits of people, and I used the money I earned to buy you this cake."

Li Tong looked at Wu Mian with a smile: "I saw you in the cafeteria yesterday and found that you seemed to be unable to eat the food here, so I opened a small stove for you."

Wu Mian looked at Li Tong in surprise: "You left the garbage dump?"

"Yes." Li Tong nodded with a guilty conscience: "Er Niu from the garbage dump told me a secret passage out of here, so I sneaked out."

"Remember, you must never do this kind of thing a second time. This is the base where Nan Ci and the others rely for survival. Once the news of synthetic humans living here is exposed, you will harm everyone here."

Wu Mian looked at Li Tong seriously: "Now we are living under the protection of others. Even if we cannot help, we must not cause any trouble to them!"

"I just want you to eat something good. I won't do it next time." Li Tong did not expect that Wu Mian would react like this, like a child who had done something wrong, and said angrily: "But I have already bought the cake.

, you’d better try it.”

"Forget it, let's take it to the canteen and feed it to the children. Food will bring them more happiness than us." Wu Mian smiled: "Anyway, thank you."

Wu Mian had been busy outside all day, and her physical strength was severely exhausted. Her stomach kept growling. As soon as dinner time arrived, she and Li Tong rushed to the cafeteria.

When a group of children saw Li Tong coming out with a cake, they immediately started looting.

The rapid development of science and technology has made the materials of this era a lot richer. Although famine still exists in the lands outside the government-controlled areas, at least most cities in the federation are guaranteed.

Although most of the food for people at the bottom is synthetic food, it is still not difficult to fill their stomachs.

In this era where resources and wealth are controlled by the middle and upper classes, and classes are seriously solidified, class antagonism is mainly due to the fact that people at the bottom always want things that they have not yet obtained, or will never obtain.

Of course, this kind of contradiction only exists within mainstream society.

As for synthetics, a group excluded from mainstream society, because they cannot integrate into normal trade, even having a full stomach is a luxury.

Even Erniu, who is thirteen years old, eats cake for the first time in his life today.

Perhaps because he was too hungry, Wu Mian felt that today's sweet potatoes were particularly sweet.

While Wu Mian was eating, Nan Ci also walked into the cafeteria and sat across from them.

Seeing Nan Ci enter the door, Wu Mian stopped and asked: "What are the results of Zhu Tao's quantum brain test?"

"Fortunately, the data is not damaged, but with our current capabilities, it is difficult to help him build a body with level four weapon modules. We don't know when he will be able to return to the team."

There was a hint of sadness on Nan Ci's face: "Zhu Tao is pretty good, at least he has not disappeared from this world."

Wu Mian knew that Nan Ci was feeling sorry for the other teammates who lost their lives, so he whispered: "I thought that those of you who dare to go against the coalition government would take the sacrifice very lightly."

"The purpose of fighting is to make your life better in the future. Everyone wants to see that day come, right?"

Nan Ci sighed: "Even if we are prepared to sacrifice, it does not mean that we can face death calmly. Death is, after all, the deepest fear of human nature."

"I am afraid of death because there is still nostalgia in the world and hope in my heart."

Wu Mian was afraid that Nan Ci would become depressed because of this, so he said provocatively: "Let's focus on the Hidden Dragon Organization. Don't forget that your brother's whereabouts are still unknown."

The sadness on Nan Ci's face became more obvious: "After you detected the tinfoil component on the bottom of that shoe yesterday, our spies investigated several large tinfoil manufacturers in Kyoto, but did not find anything in these places.

Abnormal, do you really think we can find relevant clues about the Hidden Dragon Organization in this way?"

"We have already used bait to catch them once. According to the secretive style of the Hidden Dragon organization, it is difficult for them to be fooled a second time. If we continue to fight, we will easily fall into their trap."

Wu Mian responded truthfully: "Using this method of finding a needle in a haystack to find the Hidden Dragon Organization will at least give us a direction for our investigation. This is a stupid method to begin with. In a game with such a powerful opponent as the Hidden Dragon Organization, you have to keep

Enough patience."

Nan Ci showed a wry smile: "Besides staying patient, I don't seem to have any better way, right?"

At the same time, five figures slowly appeared from behind a huge garbage pile in the garbage dump.

The leader, a middle-aged man with a Chinese-style face, reached out and took off the bandit hat that was tied around his forehead to cover his face. He quickly moved the bolt of the rifle and walked forward steadily: "We have only one mission today.

Clean up the place and kill everyone in sight. Xiaolong and Xu Lin will do the killing with me, Xiaoma will provide remote support, and Lao Liu will be responsible for the response!"

"clear!"

The four people around him responded, holding their own firearms and moving towards the dilapidated housing area in front of them in uniform steps.
