Indescribable cyberpunk

Zhu Jue, who got the information from Feng Shaojie, immediately contacted Yimeng, and Fu Yingxiong immediately expressed his desire for an interview.

Zhu Jue had no choice but to rush to Shenzhen-Hong Kong District from the center of Shuguang City overnight.

Braving the cold autumn rain, Suzi was waiting at the door of the stronghold when Zhu Jue arrived at his destination. After entering, he didn't say much and just replayed the conversation he had just had with Feng Shaojie.

The rain outside the window was heavy, and the wind was blowing loudly on the unclosed windows of an unknown house nearby.

The room was deathly silent.

Zhu Jue held the wind chime and said nothing, waiting for Su Zi or Fu Yingxiong to speak.

"Ha! I didn't expect that the murderers that we spent so much resources on tracking down the people who threatened the people were just a game in their eyes."

Fu Yingxiong took a sip of his coffee, and what he said in a self-deprecating tone brought the atmosphere in the room to a freezing point.

"Why don't those bastards set up the battlefield in their high-rise communities?"

Someone slapped the edge of the window sill and said in a muffled voice.

Zhu Jue glanced at the person who said this. The stranger should be a member of the Yi League who came here recently, and he was also a relatively radical group.

Combined with the current situation.

The creator, executor and ultimate beneficiary of this luxurious gambling game is undoubtedly an extremely powerful organization in Qianfan City.

Based on the information currently obtained by Yimeng, it is very likely that this organization has obtained some kind of technology that can bring personal consciousness across ultra-long distances through cooperation with monsters that are the source of spiritual pollution, and then established a special underground with people in the high-rise communities of Qianfan City. Casinos use all contestants and ordinary people as chips or tools in their hands to make terrifying profits.

It is important to know that an estimated 80% of the founders and current participants of the Yi Meng organization used to be members of the lower class, and they are likely to maintain this status now. It is naturally difficult to accept this kind of behavior that regards the lives of civilians as tools.

"I don't think this is just a gambling game. If it's just to make money, they don't have to spend so much energy with special technology, using volunteers to make cybernetic warriors of the same level, and then forcibly stripping other people's wills through mental transfer In this game, this kind of behavior is somewhat unreasonable no matter how you look at it.”

Suzi's mood remained stable, and she expressed her opinion after a brief thought.

If they just want to make profits through this kind of bloody gambling, there is no need to do anything extra. They can directly find some people and limit them to a certain area to fight, or use other methods to achieve similar effects.

There is no doubt that it is not difficult for those capital oligarchs to do this kind of thing. To give the simplest example, the slum of Pacifica in Auroville City, not to mention more than a dozen people died in it, even if the number of people was doubled several times , and no one will care.

Because in the eyes of some of the guys in charge, the poor people in this area cannot be called human beings at all.

"Are you saying this casino is just part of their plan?"

Fu Yingxiong continued Suzi's words, with a particularly solemn expression on his face. It was one thing to laugh and laugh without a trace, but it was really difficult for him to accept that something he valued so much was just a game played by the upper class. of.

"Yes, the authenticity of the information disclosed by Zhu Jue's informants may need to be verified, but one thing I can confirm is that he did not participate too much in this kind of gambling. I am afraid that what he saw was only on the surface. Yes, what those people want these rich people to see."

"I agree with this. In my opinion, this gambling game in Qianfan City is more like a cover-up than part of their plan. It's like a hamburger with sesame seeds on the bun. It looks good, but the taste is bland. The real key is The only thing is the patty and sauce at the bottom.”

Feng Shaojie said in the communication that he had only been there once. No one believed this. How could someone who had been there only once know so many things?

But it would be wrong to say that he is a veteran, because Zhu Jue noticed at that time that his words always revolved around the gambling game. It was obvious that this guy went there just for this exciting method of gambling, and did not participate in other people's games in depth. activity.

Regarding Zhu Jue's metaphor, Suzi nodded subconsciously in agreement. She also felt that this matter was not that simple.

"Ah Qi, information about Qianfan City."

Fu Yingxiong turned around and shouted to the young man next to him, who immediately opened the data file prepared in advance.

Among them was some rough information collected by people from the Yi League's stronghold in Qianfan City. Zhu Jue glanced at it and found that it was a little worse than the information Lisanna had obtained through her channels, but it could be said to be quite detailed. I couldn't help but take a high look at the intelligence agency of the League of Justice.

After all, the time to inform the Alliance of Justice about the Thousand Sails City incident was an hour ago, and Zhu Jue had asked Lisanna to help investigate this matter in the past two days after seeing the biological armor in the ruins, hoping to be able to owe them a debt. Being able to produce this information in such a short period of time is enough to prove that Yimeng has spent a lot of effort in this regard.

Different from Dawn City, Thousand Sail City can be said to be an iconic existence that is free from government control among the current super cities around the world.

Starting from the Yecheng disaster five years ago, Blue Wing and Yuanfan, which were already the crown jewels of the world's top groups at the time, announced their takeover of Thousand Sail City in the second year after the subsequent disaster. Then the power of capital was operating at full speed. These three companies The financial oligarchs have shown the world how terrifying their hidden power is.

Yuanfan was in charge of the city's security force. In the second year after the disaster, he proposed a new system of hue monitoring. In just a few months, most of the mental pollution source monsters lurking in the city were eliminated, leaving only some rotten fish. The shrimps are struggling to survive.

Blue Wing is responsible for city construction, using the most advanced construction machines of this era to directly build the now-famous "City in the Sky" in two years.

Crown is responsible for the intelligent system, and omninic androids, which can only play a supporting role in other cities, are very popular in this city.

As if a plan had been made long ago, a super city suddenly emerged in just a few years.

It is precisely because this city has had very little influence from the government during its rise. According to the information collected by Yimeng, although the federal government is still nominally the manager of this city, in reality it is the federal government in Qianfan City. There are so few official agencies that you can count them on one hand, and they are located in the middle of the entire city.

The middle section here refers to the urban grading method of Thousand Sail City. Different from the block-type urban status of Shuguang City, the urban structure of Thousand Sail City is simply clear. The lower the community is, the lower its status is, and vice versa.

The high-rise community that Feng Shaojie mentioned is the community located in the landmark building "Jingdu Qianfan" in Qianfan City. The people living in it are wealthy and dignitaries from all over the world. Even if Zhu Jue's current assets are to go there, I'm afraid it will be difficult. would be considered "unremarkable".

Through Suzi's introduction and analysis, a group of people, including Zhu Jue, quickly learned about the city.

"We now have two options for further investigation."

During the analysis just now, Mozi had already worked out two investigation routes while distracted. Although it was just a rough idea, it still had a direction.

"First, we should rely on Zhu Jue's identity and his current amount of assets. Since Feng Shaojie can enter the gambling game through his friends, he should also be introduced through his connections to find out what's going on."

"Second, find a way to get a quota to participate in this killing game and conduct investigations directly from the stadium."

Motoko directly proposed two plans in short sentences. He did not say the advantages and disadvantages of each, but let the people present think for themselves.

The first plan seems safe. Zhu Jue sneaks in as a gambler. Not only will he not be in danger, but he will also be protected by this organization. But entering in this state will undoubtedly expose himself to the opponent's eyes. , it cannot be said that every move is under the surveillance of others. If you want to explore some private content, you must be more careful. If your identity is exposed if you take a slightly outrageous action, it is likely to be a situation of catching a turtle in a jar. In someone else's hometown, even Zhu Jue I can't guarantee that I can make it out.

In contrast, the danger of the second plan is obvious. When the Yimeng members who had been accidentally transferred to the spirit suddenly died suddenly, Zhu Jue, Su Zi and others were nearby. They saw the scene with their own eyes and knew clearly. In this killing game, failure is equivalent to being wiped out across space by some mysterious force.

To win this kind of killing game means fighting, but according to the rules, everyone is in an equal state to a certain extent. Even the members of the Yi League who have received professional training dare not say that they can win surely. .

If the horse stumbles, the consequences cannot be borne casually.

Inexplicable embarrassment appeared on the faces of most people in the room. They all wanted to contribute to solving this matter, but they inevitably hesitated on the premise that they had to risk their lives.

Someone secretly looked at Zhu Jue, thinking that maybe this rich man, who was recognized by the heads of Suzi and Fu Yingxiong, would take a stand?

After all, Motoko's first plan can only be done by him in a sense.

"I don't have that much time to go to Thousand Sail City to participate in some gambling. I also have my own things to do in the near future."

Zhu Jue first rejected the first plan. Participating in the bet sounded easy, but it required him to coordinate the relationship and make various preparations in advance. It was impossible to launch an investigation immediately when he got to the place. He had to participate several times first. To judge the form and then find a way to find a breakthrough.

These things may sound like a short sentence, but it is not that easy to actually do them.

So Zhu Jue is ready to play something exciting.
