Indescribable cyberpunk

When the candle was halfway burned, the white wax oil slid down the candle body and accumulated into an irregular wax circle the size of a thumb at the bottom.

The light from the candle cannot illuminate the entire living room. It is only about three meters away from the center of the charcoal stove in the center of the living room. Only the outlines of some furniture can be vaguely seen in the four corners. Darkness is still the main tone here. .

But compared to the dark, snowy streets outside, it can undoubtedly be called a safe zone.

On both sides of the charcoal stove grill in the living room, Gu Ginkgo and Zhu Jue sat opposite each other.

The former stared blankly at the charcoal in the charcoal stove, which was gray on the outside but glowing orange on the inside. His face was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with suppressed pain.

Between the opening and closing of the lips, some secret events covered by time are told.

The latter held a pen and paper in his hand and kept writing something with his knees as a cushion. He raised his head from time to time and asked something.

This state had lasted for nearly half an hour, and Zhu Jue had a general understanding of what Gu Yinxing had experienced.

The origin of everything still goes back to the reason why he came to Qianfan City in the first place.

Human Rights March!

The secret behind this demonstration, which was secretly promoted by the unwilling federal government three years ago, is far beyond Zhu Jue’s imagination!

I'm afraid the federal government doesn't even know how much trouble it caused by just using public opinion to target the Thousand Sail City government.

Of course, if they really knew about it, it is estimated that not only would the senior officials of the federal government not be embarrassed, but they would also laugh a few times to express their inner joy.

Zhu Jue originally didn't have much information about the human rights march, but now that Gu Yingxing, a person who has experienced it personally, has solved his doubts, many of the mysteries lingering in his mind are gradually being revealed.

There was nothing much to say in the early days of the human rights march. The federal government was controlling it at the time, and Zhu Jue knew it too.

The real key is the Cult of Thorns!

The Sect of Thorns was not a religion at all when it was founded, but a mutual aid group established spontaneously among the people at the bottom. Its original name was "Green Grass", which means a small thing full of vitality.

When this group was first established, there were less than 15 people. Gu Yingxing was one of the first members. She did not mention how she came to Qianfan City. Zhu Jue guessed that she had nowhere to go after the catastrophe in Ye City. , coupled with his own idol status, so he came to this city with a well-developed entertainment industry through certain channels.

During the human rights demonstrations, members of "Green Grass" quickly attracted a large number of members by constantly helping other people.

Weak people are always accustomed to hugging each other for warmth. This is the first thing that comes to Zhu Jue's mind.

I didn't mention it because it was somewhat ironic and now was obviously not the time to talk about it.

The reason that prompted the transition from "green grass" to "thorns" was a manhunt in Thousand Sail City against a human rights march.

Capitalists have always hated this kind of parade the most, so after realizing that some simple methods could not end this farce, they immediately thought of forcibly curbing the growing resistance trend by clearing out some of the "ringleaders" in the parade.

"Green Grass" was well-known in the parade at that time, so it naturally became one of the targets, so it was inevitable that it would be attacked by the Qianfan City government.

Of course, it is impossible for ordinary people to compete with the government machinery.

In just two or three days, the top management of the team was sent to prison by the patrol on trumped-up charges, and Gu Yinxing happened to be among them.

Under such a premise, "Green Grass" made an internal vote through an internal vote that seemed brave at the time, but seems to be a disastrous decision now.

Join forces with other groups in the human rights march to put pressure on the Qianfan City government to force them to release him!

Since almost all the top leaders of the "Green Grass" mutual aid group were in prison at the time, Gu Yinxing did not know the detailed process when what happened around them, which eventually became a major turning point in the human rights march, took place.

When I asked again when I was released from prison, I got vague replies. It was even less likely that the Qianfan City government would mention this matter openly, so in the end they had no choice but to let it go.

"If I could go back to that time, I would rather die in prison than let them use this method to rescue me."

The chopsticks unconsciously poked at the roasted meat on the plate, which had lost most of its heat. This was Gu Yinxing's summary of the joint rescue.

After this incident, the major forces in the human rights march seemed to have tasted the sweetness. The small groups that had gathered before did not immediately separate, but continued to stay in contact, eventually forming a large organization created by the people at the bottom.

The "green grass" where Gu Gingxing and others were located naturally became a very important part of it.

From this moment on.

The development of human rights demonstrations has reached a fork in the road.

To the left is hell, and to the right is hell!

After Gu Yingxing and others were arrested and released by the government, they without exception became celebrities in the parade. A considerable number of people regarded them as heroes who dared to fight and win against the capitalists, which made them While being in the limelight, he also became the best role model.

So in the following days, the Thorns expanded at an extremely fast speed, not only absorbing the remaining poor people, but even began to annex other small forces in the lower-class communities.

Is this a good thing?

Not really.

It seems that the number of members of the organization continues to increase, and the size of the organization is almost changing every day.

However, anyone with a little knowledge knows clearly that this organization with mixed personnel, no organization and no discipline has any future.

At this time, the inside story of the Thorns Organization was not all a waste of money. There were also people in the top management who were aware of this rather serious problem.

They hope to change this situation.

Until one day, the appearance of several special characters brought a new trend of thought.

"Dennis, Takuto Sakai, and Benjamin, please write down the names of these three people. This is very important!"

"they are"

Upon hearing these names, Zhu Jue's eyes sharpened, he stopped what he was doing, raised his head and asked.

Dennis, this name was very familiar to him. He had met this person before in the laboratory he entered after the consciousness transformation, and it was he who took him to see Mi Go!

I just don’t know if he and Gu Yinxing are talking about the same person.

"No one knows where these three people came from. They appeared when the organizational system was bloated and about to fall apart. They claimed to be believers of the goddess of thorns. In fact, 'Green Grass' was later renamed 'Thorns' because of them. The belief presented.”

"I don't know where they are now, but they are definitely an important member of the Ouroboros organization that caused this chaos in the lower community. I don't know much about them. They ruined everything. I am the goddess of thorns. Idiot, it’s all lies!”

Mentioning these people, Gu Yinxing half-covered her face, her words through gritted teeth were filled with annoyance and depression, and her violent mood swings made her state very unstable.

She has shouldered too many people's expectations, and after her faith was shattered, this expectation became a mental burden that was about to completely crush her.

It was only at this time that the state she showed made people realize that she was just a young girl.

"How about you rest for a while and talk about it later?"

Zhu Jue noticed that something was wrong with Gu Yingxing's mood, put down his pen, and comforted him warmly.

"Don't worry about me. You continue to record. What I want to say next is the most important information."

Not following Zhu Jue's suggestion, Gu Yinxing frowned.

From the current standpoint, those things that were extremely sacred in their eyes at the time now seem to be traps that they had planned long ago!

Her faith has been a tool used by some people to cover up their disgusting and dirty thoughts from the beginning, which makes her eager to fight back!

"They have a very special biochemical technology in their hands. They deceived many people at the time, including me. I am afraid that this epidemic is also related to it. Does your mobile phone still have power?"

"There is still 30%, do you want to use it?"

There is power supply equipment in the community hospital, and Zhu Jue spent some money to have someone charge it for him before going out.

"Take it out now, turn on the shooting function, and aim at my hand!"

She stretched her arm flatly under Zhu Jue's cell phone lens. The white and tender palm was now vaguely glowing with a strange black color. After a while, a group of black amorphous hyphae penetrated from under the skin into the palm of her hand.

As expected, Gu Yinxing is no longer an ordinary person.

"What's this?"

Zhu Jue raised his hand to enlarge the picture under the lens, and asked while observing carefully.

"This is the special ability brought by the 'Fruit of God' distributed by the Thorn Sect. It can corrode the human body, absorb the energy in their human body, and finally condenses a fruit that can strengthen the human body after killing the opponent. Eat this People who eat the fruit will gain power far beyond ordinary people, but as time goes by, it will gradually change the spirit and body of the person who eats it. People in the Ouroboros organization can completely transform these people through certain means. Become a monster!”

The scene last night was vivid in her mind. Gu Gingxing looked at the black mycelium in her palm. She once regarded it as a gift from God that could change her destiny. Who would have thought that it would actually push her and her companions into hell? The devil's minions!

"The symptoms you mentioned are very similar to the symptoms of infected people. A few days ago, they were just changes in physical manifestations. Most people retained a certain degree of sanity. Only the day before yesterday, collective mutations suddenly occurred. It was the Ouroboros organization. Making trouble behind your back?"

The information given by Gu Yinxing made Zhu Jue immediately think of the mutation process of infected people. After thinking about it for a while, he discovered a problem.

"According to your statement, people from the Ouroboros organization can transform infected people into monsters through some means. However, judging from the current situation, the infected people are located in five low-level communities, and their geographical locations are very different from each other. Big, can the method of inducing mutations in Ouroboros tissue cover five communities?"

"I can only tell you what I know now. As for your question involving the secrets inside Ouroboros, my identity is not enough to gain access. You only need to tell the Qianfan City government this information and let them investigate. !”

Gu Yinxing is not a core member of the Ouroboros organization. In fact, most of what she just said is just speculation based on past experiences.

"Um"

Suddenly pondering, Zhu Jue suddenly realized a more important issue.

Gu Gingxing was just saying that people who eat the so-called "Fruit of God" will mutate into monsters through the special means of the people in the Ouroboros organization.

Then why can she sit here and have a fluent conversation with herself?

This trouble quickly disappeared.

Because Gu Yinxing gave an explanation.

Black lines suddenly appeared on the skin all over the body and the limbs suddenly began to mutate.

Zhu Jue stared.

This explanation probably couldn't be more intuitive.

"He's here! Get out of here quickly, and don't forget to convey what I just told you to the Qianfan City government!"

As if he noticed something, Gu Yinxing stood up from his seat suddenly, grabbed Zhu Jue's collar and threw him in the direction of the door.

who is he?

There will be another chapter later
