Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Compared with the capital Constitution City, Peicheng put much less pressure on Zhuang Xuteng. Although this is Zhuang Xuteng's hometown and base camp, which is very important to him, for the company, this place is just a second-tier city that is gradually declining. The only highlight recently is that it held an exhibition, which set an example for the company's implementation plan. . Nowadays, safety blue, dream fog machines, social public work points and other matters are not only on the right track, but also have developed vigorously and unstoppably. Then the only important thing left for Peicheng in the company's plan is to arrest Zhuang Xuteng.

According to the advice given by the intelligence analysis department: Naike will focus on attacking key departments of the company, because only by constantly posing threats can he feel safe. If Naike falls silent, it will buy time for the company to hunt down, which is actually a good thing. The company will never give up chasing Zhuang Xuteng. It does not need to consider the cost, but the smaller the loss, the better.

The company has also considered Zhuang Xuteng returning to Peicheng, but it is unlikely to cause sabotage here. After all, it is his hometown. Therefore, the company mainly arranges investigation and tracking personnel in Peicheng. The deployment of defensive personnel is much lower than that in the capital, and they are mainly combat execution puppets. The God's execution puppet, Yi'a, has been activated and stationed near the four major companies' residences. Although this thing has a high probability of being unable to defeat Zhuang Xuteng, the company hopes that it can delay it for a while, waiting for Anzu to arrive.

Obviously, this layout and arrangement was based on old intelligence. The battle between Zhuang Xuteng and Baden-Powell has refreshed the company's understanding, and all intelligence analysis and strategic arrangements must change accordingly - these will take time. When Zhuang Xuteng fell into Peicheng, these changes had not yet occurred, so he used the disintegration effect to protect himself and the invisibility cloak was enough to enter the city.

Disappears upon landing. Zhuang Xuteng has lived here for many years and is familiar with the roads. He certainly knows where the dangers are and where he can take a breather. In an abandoned construction site, sit in the shadow of the building, stretch out your sensory tentacles to monitor the surroundings, and at the same time gain life energy for yourself to heal your arms.

"I played well, I played well...Although I didn't win, I did play well." The corners of Zhuang Xuteng's mouth turned up slightly. His self-encouragement was entirely based on facts. "Above Battenberg, the company's mobile strike force is Anzu, right? Hehe, although it may not be possible to defeat Anzu, I didn't expect that I am so strong..."

Zhuang Xuteng was a lone ranger, but Baden-Powell brought a whole team. Although Zhuang Xuteng was at a disadvantage in the later stages of the battle, didn't he successfully escape? On the other hand, on Baden-Powell's side, all the team was killed and only one Baden-Powell was left. This should certainly be regarded as Zhuang Xuteng's victory. To put it bluntly, Baden-Powell did not need to win, but Zhuang Xuteng needed to use this victory to boost his morale and give him more confidence to face the difficulties ahead.

"That martial skill is very strong. It is very powerful. The efficiency of the movements is too high. It can be suppressed directly by relying on this. It is not possible to use just changing moves. It is best to improve the defensive ability and form a balanced state of offense and defense, not like me. The attack is okay, but the defense basically relies on dodge.”

Strengthening defenses is easier said than done. Zhuang Xuteng only had an armor-piercing hammer and a disintegration shield that could block Baden-Powell's attack. He was already using his hands to defend, but he was still breached. After thinking carefully, Zhuang Xuteng had to admit that Baden-Powell's attack pattern was indeed extremely powerful, and there were no flaws that he could exploit.

"Supercomputing martial arts is not the strongest martial arts in the world. This is to be expected. In fact, it is nothing. I spent as much as I spent on Baden-Powell's set of equipment. Hiss, by the way, after the airship crashed, Baden-Powell There are many flaws in Dengbao's martial arts, and he can also be induced by Eight Flashes. Is his martial arts related to the people in the airship? Are the intelligence officers giving him advice? "

It is a good habit to carefully analyze the gains and losses after the war. The company relies on this method to continuously improve itself and survive previous wars; Zhuang Xuteng also continues to improve by summarizing experience. "The company's enhanced people are supported by the system and rely on the system to fight. As long as they lose the system, their combat effectiveness will drop sharply. Eh? What if I use the shadow energy collected around me to create a giant shadow and cover it up? Can we gain great advantages through the team’s observation and assistance? ”

There's no answer to that question, except for another fight, which would be unwise. Zhuang Xuteng slowly raised his left arm. It restored its basic functions, but all the muscles and blood vessels were covered with wounds, and it was still too fragile to fight. Similar to his left arm, Zhuang Xuteng's internal organs and other parts of his body were also quite tired and needed a good rest. When fighting, he could keep fighting with just one breath, but that would definitely deplete his body's health.

I felt around my body and finally found half a nutrition bar. Baden-Powell cut his armored jacket into pieces, and the violent activities shook off many small items. This half of a nutritional bar was the last remnant. Zhuang Xuteng ate it in small bites, but this thing didn't satisfy his hunger at all. He had to find other things to eat. But the food on the market has safety blue added to varying degrees. He really doesn’t want to touch that thing, what should he do...

There is a way! Zhuang Xuteng's mind was still bright, and he thought of protein worms. As a child who grew up in a protein worm farm, cooking protein worms directly is a necessary skill. When they were cleaning the worm pool, they would put back the unhealthy worms that could be cured, and of course they would cook and eat those that were not worth curing. Protein worms are all nutritious, but genetic modification adds a bitter and nauseating taste, just to prevent people from eating this thing directly instead of buying processed synthetic food, which would affect profits.

But people can always find a way.

After his body was basically recovered - which also made him hungrier than usual - Zhuang Xuteng set off for the logistics warehouse in the hub area. Most of the protein worms from the surrounding farms will be processed on site, but the scale and processing capacity of the satellite city are limited, so a considerable part of them will still be transported to the factory in the city. Zhuang Xuteng followed his parents to deliver goods, and was familiar with the process, so of course he knew the location.

Protein worms are the basis of everyone's food. It will never be replaced, but workers can. Zhuang Xuteng came to the unloading area and observed from a distance that more than 90% of the workers in the entire factory were execution puppets. The rest of the people (except the boss) also seemed worried, not knowing when they would be replaced. Although social public work points are always recruiting people, the income there is obviously not comparable to the actual wages in the factory. Besides, everyone has learned skills for the work in hand, spent so much energy and time, and then the only work they can do in this life is to lie down and sleep?

Little did they know that the more they seemed to be unmotivated to work, the more the boss wanted to replace them with execution puppets. I heard that the new generation of execution puppets already have accounting work capabilities and can independently complete simple process control, statistics and distribution work such as warehouse management, which is enough to meet the daily management of a simple factory like his. The only thing that made him hesitate was the price and the listing date.

Not long after, his execution puppet reported a problem: a barrel of 30 kilograms of protein worms had a handover problem and was likely lost. The boss first checked the handover form and then retrieved the video, but he didn't understand what was going on for a long time. It was at this time that he felt that real employees might still make sense, at least they could discuss with him and give him some ideas.

Of course, those protein worms were taken away by Zhuang Xuteng. He could sneak out of the capital Constitution City and steal a factory without any difficulty.

For the first time in his life, Zhuang Xuteng had an appetite for the wriggling live protein worms. Obviously, his hunger was really serious. He took out one, removed its head, and put it in his mouth. The taste was still disgusting. Even hunger could not resist the advanced technology of biological transformation engineering. Fortunately, Zhuang Xuteng did not pursue the taste. He just needed to wait for the stomach and intestines to digest and absorb nutrients.

First, he could only make his tongue bitter, create a sense of fullness, and let the digestive system and the attached implants work at full capacity. The vitality absorbed by necromancy is very weak. Only what you eat is real and can solve the problem. Zhuang Xuteng ate more than 20 protein worms in a row. When his appetite disappeared, he stopped and sat against the wall to rest.

"Where will Daoge be?" Zhuang Xuteng thought. First, we have to rule out their homes, which must be under the company's close surveillance. Maybe they will ambush troops around them, just waiting for them to come. Lucy's place is unlikely, because he and Ge Gongdao know that mercenaries and people in the mercenary industry are essentially working for money, and they will definitely not offend the company for them. Only those who have established a solid personal relationship, can truly be brothers and trust each other, can become Dao Ge's choice.

"I should go eat wontons... Alas, it seems that fighting Badenburg is really too tiring, and my brain is not working." Zhuang Xuteng looked at the blue fresh-keeping barrel that was still half full, thought about it, and decided to take a complete rest before going to find Boss Suo.

This wait lasted a day. Half of the protein worms were eaten by him, and the other half was used to cover the body and absorb damage. In order to reduce the risk of exposure, he finally did not use the "family cooking method" and relied entirely on the power of technology-implants-to eat the protein worms raw. The severe nausea covered his taste buds, constantly stimulating his nerves, and even made him feel dizzy all the time, including the way he was sneaking to find Boss Suo.

He also knew that he was not in good condition, so in order to avoid implicate Boss Suo, he stopped in advance and found a hiding place 3 kilometers away from the wonton stall, and quickly adjusted his condition. At this distance, he could use his sensory tentacles to check the situation ahead, and it didn't take long for him to find Brother Dao, Zhuang Feifei and Boss Suo. The three of them were fine except for a little moldy feeling. Judging from the garbage piled up in the house, these guys seemed to have never left the house and all lived on the stock in the house.

Fortunately, Boss Suo had been selling wontons for a long time, and there were a lot of flour and canned synthetic meat in stock, so that the three of them always had food to eat. Zhuang Xuteng wanted to recognize them immediately, but he was not sure whether he would reveal a flaw and be discovered by the company when he was in a bad state. So he sent Miss Sick, let her approach in a way that was invisible and penetrated the wall and the ground, and then suddenly appeared in the middle of the three people.

Gongdao Ge immediately raised his hand and slashed, and Miss Sick's head and body were separated at that time. Fortunately, the basic body of the sick lady was a vengeful spirit servant. After the head was cut and separated, it evaporated on the spot. After a while of squirming, the part below the neck formed a smaller sick lady. Ge Gongdao blinked, as if he thought of something, and did not rush to make a second cut.

Under the direct command of the sensory tentacles, the sick lady communicated by tracing letters with her fingers until Zhuang Feifei found her pen and paper. "I'm nearby, testing whether there is a tail. You guys hide well, and if there's no problem here, I'll go find you - Zhuang Xuteng."

Zhuang Feifei immediately covered her mouth and started to cry, but after Ge Gongdao asked a few questions, she believed that the information came from Zhuang Xuteng. They asked each other about each other's situation: Zhuang Xuteng said that he had a fight with Baden-Powell in Constitution City, the capital, and ran away without a fight. He could only eat protein worms to satisfy his hunger and was currently suffering from nausea; Ge Gongdao said that they did not dare After leaving the house, he definitely ate much better than Zhuang Xuteng, but he also started to feel sick. He was welcome to share the joys and sorrows.

Zhuang Xuteng promised to go there after confirming that he had not been discovered, but he could do some help now, such as throwing away the garbage and getting them some new food. Boss Suo asked Zhuang Xuteng to get things from his storeroom. There were many fish caught and processed from Peihe in the freezer, as well as a large number of sauces and condiments for making fish wontons.

"Whether you steal or buy, there is a possibility of exposure - it is safest to take it from my warehouse."

Zhuang Xuteng was busy for a whole day by using his sensing tentacles to detect the situation, and then letting the servants of the resentful spirit carry it in relays. In one day, if the company had discovered him before, they would have killed him by now, so Zhuang Xuteng felt free to meet them. I thought Zhuang Feifei would cry non-stop and need comfort, but this experience obviously made her grow. Zhuang Feifei hugged her brother hard and let go after humming a few times, completely controlling her emotions.

"Okay..." Zhuang Xuteng originally wanted to pat his sister on the top of her head, but he stretched out his hand and changed his mind temporarily. He patted Zhuang Feifei on the shoulder and praised: "I have begun to feel like a warrior, and I have improved a lot than before."

Zhuang Feifei blushed, smiled slightly, and then thought about changing the subject: "Brother, your clothes are all torn. Take them off and I'll see if I can mend them for you."

"We had a fight with Baden-Powell. It was so embarrassing. His armored coat was in strips, just like a homeless man." Zhuang Xuteng took off his coat, handed it to his sister, and said, "I guess there is no hope of recovering that thing." It’s as it is, I’ll make it smaller for you! I can get a few more sets. If you meet someone like Baden-Powell, the protective effect of these clothes can only be said to be better than nothing.”

"Is he very powerful?" Ge Gongdao asked.

"His martial arts skills are very strong and have no flaws - as long as he has intelligence officers behind him to provide support." Zhuang Xuteng sat down and described Baden-Powell's tactics in detail, and concluded: "He is equivalent to a super brain, and he avoids all A strategy that may lead to greed for success. You also know that our super-calculated martial arts like others to follow suit and cause chaos, rather than this absolute steady attack. "

"If I meet Baden-Powell..."

"Do your best, you can't escape anyway. He has a total of ten high-speed and high-explosion shadow slaves on him, which can fly and burst out in short bursts. You can pretend to run away, and then look back and strike. I feel it will have a miraculous effect. But..." Zhuang Xuteng said : "What I'm worried about now is a guy named Anzu. It is said that he is the number one enhancer in the company now."

For some reason, when he heard the name Anzu, Boss Suo's hands shook and he almost spilled the wontons he was about to serve.
