Chapter 2744 Trade
The so-called progress is to find new strength when encountering problems, whether it is strengthening one's own system, technological breakthroughs, or finding new allies, these can be called progress, because with new strength, old contradictions can be overcome. If the current contradiction can be resolved, then the dividends of development can be obtained, and the group can survive until the next contradiction breaks out.
Encountering contradictions, seeking new strength, and resolving contradictions, this is the development process of human society.
Facing the threat of adults, Duran decisively chose to cooperate with the survivors in the snowstorm, formed a new team, and launched a new proposition.
The people of Neuron said that this is also okay? These students would rather cooperate with strangers than with Neuron? What the hell is this, how much do they not believe in Neuron.
Neuron belongs to the old forces, and they will definitely find a way to continue to set themselves in the center of the altar, so the old forces must be broken, otherwise they always consider themselves first, not the whole. That's why they won't cooperate with them. If they give up the old way and start working from the bottom, they may be given a chance, but obviously they are unwilling.
"Yes, yes, now we can almost have diplomatic contact with Behemdorug. We can use protein and bread as an exchange for some steel and other materials." Duran said that even in the end of the world, trade and exchange are necessary.
"We will go too." Misato Katsuragi said that they also wanted to go to Behemdorug.
"We are going to exchange. Do you have any goods?" Duran asked.
"No, we are going to scout." The adults in Neuron now eat and use what the students provide. They are almost becoming EVA drivers and useless adults. Without high technology, these adults can't do anything, even clothes can't be washed, and they can't cook. They can only type on the keyboard. They are too useless.
"Okay, just you?" Duran asked.
"Ritsuko, Kaji and I are three people." Misato Katsuragi said that the three of them will go together.
"Okay, get in the car." These cars belong to these prisoners of war. They have been transformed into snow-specific cars. There are two cars, one for people and one for cargo.
Set off.
At this time, everyone already knew the situation of Behemdorug, and knew that it was a slave city-state with religion, and the manager was the high priest. This high priest lived for seventy or eighty years old, but she still looked like a girl and had self-healing ability.
Struggling forward in the heavy snow, Misato Katsuragi confided her two good friends, Kaji and Ritsuko, that she was not going to stay in the Neuron any longer: "Since I knew about the existence of the Human Instrumentality Project, I have wanted to betray. It was just that the sudden heavy snow interrupted the plan. Originally, I planned to leave the Neuron with technology to build my own power to fight against the Human Instrumentality Project. Although the plan is over now, I don't want to continue to obey them."
Kaji said that this was not unexpected to him. Misato was originally fighting for the human child, but he didn't know what Ritsuko thought. It stands to reason that Ritsuko knew more, but she has not expressed her opinion.
"Ritsuko, what do you think? I think you should know more than us, and you must know more about the Human Instrumentality Project." Misato left school this time to talk openly about betrayal.
Ritsuko admitted it, and there was no need to hide it now: "Yes, I knew about the Human Completion Plan from the beginning, and I have been helping the Commander. But don't get me wrong, I have no ill will towards humans, and of course no good will. Whether it is completed or not, it doesn't matter to me. At first, I just helped the Commander to achieve his personal goal, but later I found that I was just a tool, so I have long wanted to stop the Commander." It's not to stop the plan, but to stop the Commander. If you can stop the Commander by stopping the plan, it's also okay.
Misato suddenly found that her bestie was so strange that she didn't know what her purpose was.
Ritsuko didn't have any purpose. She didn't have her own goals, and could only work hard for the goals of others. Whether it was for Ikari Gendou or Katsuragi Misato, she was just an assistant and couldn't be the leader. Although her wisdom was amazing and her technological strength was outstanding, these could not help Ritsuko find her goals. Her self-worth was reflected by helping others achieve their goals.
"Very good, then the three of us can work together." Misato said: "Next, our goal is to solve the current crisis. We must collect enough intelligence when we go to Behemdorug this time."
Kaji felt that the crisis was not so easy to solve. Perhaps they had to face a new game of building civilization from scratch.
Everyone was in a heavy mood, but the snow truck still arrived at the target location smoothly. At the same time, Unit-01 quietly hid in the wind cave as a cover.
"Okay, we're in. Shinji, you meet outside."
"Okay, teacher."
High-rise buildings stand in a huge cover. Once you enter the cover, you feel like you have entered a crowded can. The high-rise buildings in the residential area are more than ten stories high. Living in a high-rise building in the doomsday is not a happy thing. There is no elevator and you can only climb the stairs. Moreover, there are sheds between the buildings. It is like a fortress filled with too many people. Everyone can only have a living space the size of a chicken coop. However, compared with the outside world, living here is at least safe, and there is also a civilized atmosphere. There are doctors when you are sick and food when you are hungry.
Doctors are also healers, but they don’t heal themselves, but heal others.
When the convoy came back, it was immediately surrounded by people, because the convoy had been controlled by a group of strangers, so these were the enemies.
The high priest also came soon, and she was indeed a beautiful girl.
Everyone looked at this amazing doomsday city-state curiously, and looked at everything here curiously. There were continuous gunshots not far away, and two soldiers seemed to be outputting to the ground.
Duran had sharp eyes and found that it was his revengeful brother. Now he only had a head left, but he was still not dead, so the soldiers kept shooting at his head to prevent his brother from recovering.
It seems that the revenge plan failed halfway. Instead of killing Behemdorug, he only had his head left.
However, the brother's self-healing ability is indeed strong. He was not dead even though his head was left. It turned out that the brother was too high-profile when he was taking revenge, so Behemdorug was prepared in advance. The high priest personally led the team to ambush halfway and pretended to be a victim to seek help. When the brother was kind enough to help, the high priest chopped off the brother's head with a knife, brought the head back with fireproof materials, and kept shooting to kill him.
But it was useless. Shooting only slowed down the brother's self-healing speed and could not kill him at all. It must be said that this kind of self-healing ability does not need to be afraid of doomsday.
"We come with peace." Duran said to the high priest: "We are here to trade."
The high priest looked at Duran suspiciously, because there was no power around that could trade, she was full of confusion: "What are you going to exchange?"
"Food for the head, exchange?" Duran took out protein and bread, saying that these were treasures of the end of the world, and he would exchange them for the head that was being shot.
Of course, it can't be exchanged. The high priest suspected that these people came to save this man. After all, in some places, this man is considered the savior.
This is heresy, more hateful than pagans. If everyone really thinks that her brother is the savior, how can she, the high priest, manage everyone? The status of the high priest is definitely not as good as that of the savior.
