Changsun Yao walked out of Starbucks, took the car key and pressed it. An electric car parked at the end of the street turned on its lights, drove out of the parking space and arrived in front of the coffee shop.

Automatic parking technology has only been legally allowed to be installed on certain types of vehicles in recent years.

"Get in the car."

Changsun Yao opened the car door and got into the driver's seat, while Li Sheng sat in the back seat, fastened his seat belt, and whispered: "I thought you would disappear suddenly, like last time."

"That's my personal skill. Players releasing skills will consume resources such as spiritual power. If you are not in a hurry, it is better to use ordinary transportation."

Changsun Yao put on her seat belt and explained casually: "In addition, using supernatural power on the real earth will accelerate the expansion of the rift. You should know what a rift is, right?"

"Know."

Li Sheng nodded and said: "The experimental subjects in the killing field will fall into the real world through the cracks, causing disasters."

"That's right. According to the Global Occult Alliance, supernatural forces are similar to chlorofluorocarbons in the ozone hole crisis. The more they are used, the more blurred the boundary between reality and the killing field, and the more frequent abnormal events."

Changsun Yao curled his lips and said: "Everyone didn't know this rule before and abused their extraordinary power, causing cracks to spread.

Four years ago, a Category 5 hurricane broke out in the United States, sweeping through the eastern states, leaving millions homeless and thousands of lives lost.

This is the official statement. In fact, a rift incident occurred, and a dragon-shaped god escaped from the killing field.

At that time, Killing Fields had just been launched for half a year, and the players were not very high-level and could not beat it at all. Nuclear missiles launched by the military will be destroyed by hurricanes and lightning around the gods.

In the end, a local American player piloted a fighter plane and dropped a nuclear bomb on the face of the god at close range. Using the Dragon Slaying skill scroll, he blew it back into the rift and banished it back to the killing field.

That dragon-shaped god was named Tianjin Disaster because of its fairy-like appearance with white wings and golden dragon horns. "

"Taken from the Lan Long in Monster Hunter?" Li Sheng said, "It's quite two-dimensional."

"The script tasks issued by Killing Fields occasionally overlap with real-world literary and artistic works, such as games, animations, comics, novels, etc. In order to increase the survival rate, players usually have to study various literary and artistic works."

Changsun Yao said: "In addition to the Tianjin soil disaster incident, the poisonous gas leak in Busan, South Korea three and a half years ago, the murderous ghost incident in London's foggy night three years ago, and the underground rat man incident in New York were all catastrophes with a deep red warning level. A little bit. A careless move can overturn a city.

The real world has a carbon footprint, and we players also have a "supernatural element footprint." Abuse of power is equivalent to the public enemy of all mankind, and can be punished by the death penalty.

Therefore, even the top powerful people who can ignore the laws of the world rarely release their power on the earth-for their own interests. "

Protecting the environment is everyone’s responsibility. This makes sense.

As the vehicle passed through the streets of the busy city, Li Sheng thought for a while and asked again: "Why are you taking me for free? I thought the leaders of the guild were very busy."

"Three reasons. One, I'm quite bored right now, and being idle means being idle.

Second, I am a broker, and one of the professional rules of a broker is to treat everyone as a potential customer. Especially in an environment like a killing field where anything is possible. Maybe the good deeds left behind one day will be life-saving straw in the future. "

Changsun Yao drove the vehicle along the navigation map and said calmly: "Three, you are very interesting."

"Interesting?" Li Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

"The criterion for selecting players in Killing Fields is that individuals have characteristics that are more outstanding than the vast majority of similar players."

Changsun Yao said: "You are much better than ordinary people. Logically speaking, you should have been selected by the killing field long before encountering the mutation. But you were not.

Moreover, after being infected by the Lord of Insects and possessing extraordinary power, you are more in line with the selection criteria and more qualified to become a player. But no.

Such an example cannot be considered unique, but it can also be said to be rare enough. So I think you're interesting. "

Is this a compliment?

Li Sheng smiled helplessly in his heart and looked out the window.

One month, and I only have one month left to live.

Before this, Li Sheng rarely considered matters related to life and death. Even if he learned that he had been infected by the Lord of Insects, he was optimistic and active in finding a way to rescue him.

It was only now, with the cold deadline of life before him, that he suddenly felt a heavy and unreal feeling.

"arrive."

Changsun Yao stopped the car, and in front of him was the towering Yinshi branch building of Prometheus Laboratory Company.

It was late at night, and there were no security patrols outside the building. Instead, there were two bipedal robots nearly three meters tall.

It uses anti-joint feet, with retractable roller skates underneath the wide soles. Police stun guns and high-pressure water cannons are installed on the left and right arms. The body is covered with a layer of black bulletproof fiber.

The overall shape resembles the ED-209 robot in the old movie "RoboCop".

And its name is indeed ED-209 - Prometheus bought the modeling rights directly from the film company and used it as a security robot.

Speaking of security, in fact, as long as the stun guns and high-pressure water cannons on the left and right hands are replaced with machine guns and flamethrowers, they can immediately perform battlefield tasks.

Li Sheng followed Chang Sun Yao and walked into the lobby. Someone who knew her immediately came up to greet her warmly. After understanding the situation, he took the two of them to the elevator and headed to the high-rise building.

The two were led to a reception room with elegant environment and luxurious decoration.

Several waiters in suits set up the tea sets and made a pot of tea. Changsun Yao lay calmly on the sofa and drank the tea as casually as milk tea. After a while, a blond man with blue eyes and a middle-aged professor walked into the reception room.

"Good evening both of you. This is August Perez, the security director of the Prometheus branch."

The blond man who appeared by the canal that night when the Abominable Infection appeared introduced himself in fairly standard Chinese: "It's a bit late, otherwise our boss would have hosted a banquet for Miss Changsun if she came to visit.

Oh yeah, this is my friend Derek Acheson. Research Director of Gen-Sys Biotechnology Yinshi Branch. "

"I just happened to come to Prometheus to discuss a business project. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."

The middle-aged professor smiled elegantly and said, "Long time no see, Miss Changsun. What do you call the gentleman next to you?"

He turned his attention to Li Sheng, who thought for a while and said calmly: "Call me Weiying."

"Taken from the tree that shakes the earthworm? What a good name. Facing the pressing forces of the killing field, we players are indeed like ants fighting for their own survival."

Derek was quite familiar with Chinese culture and nodded approvingly.

In fact, Li Sheng didn't think so much, but the first gene he absorbed came from ants, and the second gene he absorbed came from mantises.

The meaning of these two words is almost the same, and both have a sense of absurd, Quixotic fate.

Security Director August sat across from him. After understanding the situation, he crossed his hands on the table and said seriously: "Well, Mr. Pei Fei, let's discuss it.

First of all, let’s make it clear that the infection of all gods is troublesome, especially the insect master.

The infection of the Lord of Insects is not limited to a certain part, but penetrates into the DNA of all cells in the body, including human brain cells.

As time goes by, the genome of the whole body is constantly rewritten until it completely turns into a monster.

This situation is difficult for any guild to solve, including the Special Affairs Bureau and the Global Supernatural Alliance.

We at Prometheus have three solutions for this.

One, we extract your brain and put it into the latest humanoid robot.

Your appearance will be no different from ordinary people, and because your brain is always soaked in gene inhibitors, your human lifespan will be extended from one month to six months. The plan sells for 30,000 points of killing currency, which is about 300 million yuan converted into RMB. "

The exchange rate between the market currency and the RMB is about one to ten thousand. If the market is tight, the exchange rate will rise.

"The second option is a little cheaper, only 40 million. We extract your brain and put it in a nutrient tank, which can be connected to the network through cables. The lifespan is still six months, but the disadvantage is that you can't survive in humans. normal life in society.”

"The third option is that we give you money."

August rubbed his palms and said seriously: "Prometheus Corporation is very interested in high-stage Bug Lord infections. If you are willing, you can join our research project, or you can mutate it after death. Sell ​​the body to us, and Prometheus is willing to pay 60 million for it."

Discussing how much the corpse could be sold for while still alive is magical no matter how you look at it.

Li Sheng thought for a while and asked calmly: "What will you do with the mutated corpse?"

August said honestly: "Made into defense robots. Similar to the tyrant in "Resident Evil"."

"Is this legal?"

"As long as you sign the donation agreement."

August said: "Prometheus is a scientific research company and using corpses for scientific research does not violate the law."

The sincere attitude of the other party reminded Li Sheng of the recruitment advertisement he saw online some time ago - the workplace is in Northern Europe and Sweden, he is busy five hours a day, has a monthly salary of 60,000, and also has five insurances, one housing fund and free housing for employees. The company also helps find a partner.

The only thing you need to pay attention to is that before flying into Sweden, you must first transfer to Northern Myanmar.

Where are you spending this money?
