The Witch of the Cyberpunk Era

No matter how the rat tide is outside, this store is solid, its network and electricity are independently supplied, and it does not rely on the city's inferior system.

A wide-screen TV in the high place is broadcasting the talk show "Vision of the Rich", which specializes in interviewing famous big business owners. Now Joe Caldo, chairman of the Iris Group, is invited to share his views on the future.

"...To be honest, I still can't agree with the accelerator's point of view." Qiao is a blond, handsome, cheerful man, dressed in a decent suit and wearing a watch on his wrist, Xu Yang has seen one The entry-level watch of Dai Sishiguan, the director of the branch, is already worth 4 million.

"It's very strange." A four-screen robot across the table leaned forward, and each screen reflected a movable avatar to commemorate the four hosts of the show who died of overwork. It has been in office since then. Knockout, "Today the deep anonymity network has been voiced by grievances, eager to smash the corporatist system."

"Corporateism can be improved." Joe said happily, "Especially in Taixizhou, we give employees high wages, medical insurance, spacious employee housing, pension services, and childcare benefits. As one's own family, high salary and benefits have always been the tradition of the old Taixizhou, and this will not change. In contrast, I think what they are opposed to is the production of inferior entertainment products like Kyoto Unlimited. The Peacock-Tristan Group still uses the 16-hour workday, and the Blackfire Innovation runs rampant."

"No, the Accelerators prefer these three giant companies," Sipingtou said, "They hope that these giant companies will continue to oppress and oppress everyone and the witch, and then they will respond with a thousand responses, setting off a global war, nuclear weapons. Flying around and building a new order after the devastation."

"Aha," Joe said lightly, "you must know that corporatism will not stand still. Taixizhou has already applied advanced corporatism. After being rich enough and productive enough, he will take care of company people, non-company residents and witches. The welfare of the world is our current pursuit. There is no doubt that advanced and humane corporateism is the future development direction of the world. We Taixizhou people will not sit idly by if we want to cause conflict and chaos. Seriously, other All ideas are far from advanced corporatism, and the standard of living is here.”

In Xu Yang's opinion, advanced corporatism is just another heavyweight player in the global rotten conference.

The most obvious point is that the total population of the so-called Old Taixi Continent is only 300 million, and there are 9.7 billion people in the world living in varying degrees of pain, what should they do? Due to the different industrial structure, it is impossible for the Taixizhou model to be replicated in the jurisdiction of other giant companies. The essence is that the rich first enjoy it while blaming the latter for not learning from themselves.

"Iris Group, Joe Kaldor..." Farosa stared at the screen.

"The companies in Taixizhou directly inherited the kingdoms of ancient Taixizhou, and many of the ancient kingdoms changed their skins," Xu Yang explained, "Selling luxury goods, bags, artworks, etc., with high added value and high profits, Industry and technology are also good.”

"Is it my home?" Farosa stretched out her fingers and ruffled her hair, "...the Aquilia region of Taixi Continent, people in the church gave me such a name."

The iris group controls the outer Gaul, the mountain inner Gaul, Aquilia and the banks of the Seine, and is indeed the current master of the hometown of Farosa.

"Your hometown has been taken over by entrepreneurs." Xu Yang said.

"It doesn't matter," Farosa watched Joe Kaldor chatting and laughing on the screen, "but the name... maybe I know their ancestor, the Kaldor royal family."

"Has it been a thousand years? Maybe it's not the same Kaldor." Xu Yang couldn't help but want to inquire, but unfortunately he didn't have a mobile phone.

Farosa held her cheek with one hand, and whispered after the waiter walked away.

"It would be nice if it was the same one. The Kaldor family is an ancient royal family and owes me a big favor. If you say that the Iris Group is the incarnation of the ancient dynasty, then there is a high probability that the same blood is shed." She frowned, "They once They said that they would use all means to repay me, and it was thanks to them that I could stay away from the Witch Council."

"But so many years have passed." Xu Yang only felt illusory.

After the waiter came back, Xu Yang pretended that his mobile phone was damaged during the escape, and asked him if he could get some new mobile phones. Rosia helped them buy VIP service, wondering if it would work in such a severe environment.

"Of course." The waiter said with a smile, "We will send our own delivery drone to the nearest self-service store to pick up the goods. It is bulletproof and self-defense."

"Thank you so much for that."

"Your needs, my concern." The waiter took out a cash card, Xu Yang swiped 12,000 and asked for two Blood Shadow 10pro, which is the brand under Scarlet Transformation, as the only one led by witches Giant corporations, who seem out of place in the corporate league, are more protective of user privacy than other giant corporations.

After the employee left, Farosa became curious.

"What is a cell phone?"

"The most important thing in the world," Xu Yang said, "Most people can't live without a mobile phone. My own phone was thrown away on my way out of the company because I was afraid of positioning. Then I haven't bought a new one, and now I feel It's more convenient to have a cell phone."

"Can you watch the short video from before?"

"...Really capable." It's quite bizarre that a witch who has the ability to disrupt the world is controlled by a short video.

After the mobile phone was delivered, Xu Yang handed one of them to Farosa and transferred to the help manual page, which had about 200 pages and covered all the operating information about the mobile phone.

Farosa glanced at it intently. After about 30 minutes, her knowledge of the operation of the phone far surpassed Xu Yang's. The functions that Xu Yang never cared about were recorded by Farosa.

The Internet surfing service does not require company files. If you only need to browse, you can pay directly. Xu Yang helped himself and Farosa to recharge for 10 years, and spent 30,000.

In the burrito hat shop, you don't need to worry about safety for a while, you can consider the next strategy. Xu Yang took his mobile phone to browse the reports on the Aizu Underground City from the outside world. The degree of discussion was almost zero, and the information on the rat tide was completely blocked.

"I want coffee." Farosa looked up and said to the employee, "I'm tired of reading the text."

"Yes, which flavor do you like? We have these..." The employee took out a handheld terminal screen and showed it to Farosa, with a dazzling array of styles on it.

Farosa's face was down.

"She likes sweets." Xu Yang chose a category with four times the sugar, so let's feed her a little more plump and feel better.

"Mmmm." Farosa nodded happily.

"If you regain your strength, you will be able to solve more things." Xu Yang said.

"Our situation is still very dangerous." Farosa looked outside.

Due to the special soundproof walls, the hustle and bustle of the fighting outside could not be heard, but the rat tide was surging to the naked eye. Several employees in the burrito hats had been knocked down, and the two mascot robots were also covered with rat people. will fall.

"Where's the shuttle?" Xu Yang looked out, Lila was charging herself in the corner of the restaurant, and he sent a message.

"The staff at Big Hat are repairing." Lila looked over and replied at the same time.

"They are still in charge of this?"

"I'll get the bill in a while, Master, about 150,000."

"Just fix it." Money is the most indispensable resource.

Farosa picked up the phone and thought about the legend of the Kaldor royal family. As soon as she started searching for relevant information, she saw that the phone was pre-installed with a short video entry, and she started playing again. The third-rate content is eye-catching.

Xu Yang had to remind her to pay attention to public places, so she calmed down a bit. Originally, she was very bored, but she accidentally touched the mobile game advertisement, so she became addicted to new things.

Farosa faintly knows that she has more important things to do, but she still prefers to spend her time on mobile games.

Wisdom is boring, pastime is interesting, and homelessness is inevitable.

What she came across was a mobile game called "Destiny/Witch Link", which tells the story of the protagonist who goes to ancient times as an adventurer to explore, accompanied by the elf mascot to adventure in various time and space chaotic occasions. The gameplay is to take risks while drawing Cards get new witches, and each witch has to eat various strengthening items to become stronger.

The abilities of the witches given at the beginning were all rubbish, throwing small fireballs, healing and strengthening shields, which were very ordinary. According to Farosa's understanding of witches, she felt that at least four kinds of legendary magic powers should be drawn, and she was deeply impressed by these four types of magic powers. .

The first is the most powerful reality manipulation ability, which is also the method that Eve Anark used to end the Witch Age under the order of the company.

The second is the magic of time/space, which is unreasonably powerful, making Farosa feel jealous. If the company in this era controls such witches, it will be quite dangerous.

The third is non-existence. The holder of this magic power disappears from everyone's senses, and no matter what he does, he cannot be perceived, which is extremely terrifying. Only wizards can counter it through stargazing and divination, but their heritage is rare.

The fourth is the witch in the aspect of "force", who manipulates a force similar to a magnet, and controls things to float, twist and disintegrate. In Farosa's time, such witches were all found and controlled by the council. Once their power was out of control, the whole world would be destroyed. torn.

In the game, it is a witch who summons a giant sword flame demon is the strongest, and Farosa really wants to draw.

Let me build the strongest witch group in the game! Farosa was very ambitious, she asked Xu Yang to take money to charge 2 648s.

100 rounds drawn in a row, unshipped, unloaded.

On the other side, Cui Junyou sobered up a lot from drunkenness and came over to give Xu Yang money.

"You paid for all our burritos." He planned to transfer some money to Xu Yang, so he couldn't eat it for free.

"It's okay." Xu Yang said, "We are members of a crew."

"It's the first time I travel with someone in a team." Cui Junyou sighed.

"This unit is made up of homeless people," Xu Yang said. "My identity is dead at the company level. I rented a house near here, but there are too many mice to get through. Farosa is from the countryside. Yes. Lao Cui, your clinic fell into the rat area. Lila was decomposed. Katsuragi was abandoned by the people of the Suzuki group. Lee Hyomin and Rosia are even more escaped dungeon citizens... We all survived , at least luckier than those who died in the rat tide."

"Since it's a crew, it has to have a name. Does this shuttle have a name?" Katsuragi asked from the other table.

"It has no name, no paint, it's completely dark," Xu Yang said, "let's call it Anonymous."

"Then we are the crew members of the Anonymous shuttle," Cui Junyou said with a smile, "like a cartoon I watched when I was a child."

"And you are the leader of the crew." Ge Chengqian said to Xu Yang.

"To be honest, I'm a maverick, but it's the first time I've seen you like this." Cui Junyou looked at Xu Yang repeatedly.

"People like me are easy to be pointed at by guns," Xu Yang shrugged, "so I have to continue to develop, at least have the ability to deal with guns."

"The person who came just now seems to be a person from Heihuo Innovation." Cui Junyou was very afraid.

"It will come again." Xu Yang knew that they would not give up, "We have to make things bigger, let the whole world pay attention here, and let the Black Fire Innovation not dare to mess up. Although they are domineering, they are afraid of being affected by many people at the same time. Giant companies are under siege, and if there is too much external attention, they will temporarily stop.”

"Arouse attention? Impossible. If you post it on the forum, you will be overwhelmed by other posts." Cui Junyou said.

"So look for the kind of place that many people all over the world pay attention to at the same time," Xu Yang said, "tens of millions of people watching together, even if it appears for a moment, it will attract a lot of attention, and it will instantly make Aizu a hot search."

"The Internet doesn't exist in that kind of place." Cui Junyou shook his head.

"Really." Xu Yang said.

"where?"

"Suzukawa Kii's live broadcast room."
