Chapter 339 Gallery

On the second day, three pieces of breaking news quickly spread throughout the crime city.

The former machine mastermind, Chancellorless, appears on the Twin Towers.

All 134 members of the Crime Council died.

The Twin Towers fell.

These three pieces of news are more exciting than the last. Especially the reporters who saw the fall of the Twin Towers last night were even more excited.

In their memories, after Speaker Wu appeared, he activated all the mechanical defense systems without any nonsense. For a time, countless laser rays were aimed at the towers. After ten minutes of bursting, the Twin Towers were successfully destroyed. split into two.

The scene of the collapse was astonishing.

At the same time, a rumor quickly spread throughout the crime city.

The Akudama family, which has been in the limelight recently, has acquired the 'Legacy of No Speaker'.

All criminal groups in the city were alerted.

For a time, countless informants were let out, including cyberspace, underground places, and even some gangsters' safe houses.

But found nothing.

The Akudama family seems to have mysteriously disappeared.

…

In a remote Japanese-style villa in Daoxianghui, the former No. 1 gang in the crime city, hackers, fire starters, Andy Lau, Yan Zi, and debt collectors are all present.

As for the other two, the mortar has definitely died, and the scissorhands are missing.

Although the nightmare-level mission was 'completed', the atmosphere was dull. The five people looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.

The hacker took the lead and asked: "What happened on the 200th floor last night? Why can't I receive any signal?"

Yanzi rolled his eyes, "I've told you this countless times, how many more times do I have to tell you?"

"All the dead council members, the tentacle monster that cannot be displayed on the player panel, and the two of you who teleported to the outside of the Twin Towers without knowing what was going on. You are fooling me!" the hacker retorted.

"The most important thing is," the fire starter's eyes were gloomy, "Where did you hide the things that the mission issuer asked us to get?"

Liu Dehua also frowned, and his eyes became sharp, "If we stole the mission reward, then why should we save you? If you doubt me, why not doubt you first? The super robot that fell from the sky suddenly saved your life and took you into the The story of the Twin Towers is quite magical."

Yanzi looked at the silent Black Ice No. 2 and raised his eyebrows: "Where did you die yesterday? You said you didn't come, so you wouldn't have tipped off someone, right?"

Black Ice No. 2 crossed his arms and was silent for a long time before saying:

"Instead of each having doubts, it's better to think about what to do next. You know, there are people all over the city chasing us, including players."

"So what, if we can't beat the NPCs, we can't beat the players?" Yanzi asked, "Or, the NPCs will believe the players' lies and believe that we have the ability to 'immortality'."

"Why don't you believe it?" Black Ice 2 also asked back: "You have to know that in this game world, resurrection from the dead is not a secret. Cloning, consciousness transfer, and virtual personality, there are three types that I know about. Now outsiders They all think that we have inherited the legacy of no speaker, so what’s so strange about ‘resurrection’.”

After a quarrel, nothing was resolved.

Liu Dehua returned to his room with a cold look on his face. He was affectionate with a mature woman for a while, then closed his eyes to rest. It was not until Yanzi arrived that he opened his eyes again.

"You expected me to come?" Yanzi asked in surprise.

"Don't you want to know what I discovered? And you will also ask me who among us is the traitor."

"As expected of the Infernal Walker, who is the traitor?" Yan Zi was indeed interested.

"Debt collector," Liu Dehua said.

"Why him?" Yanzi was surprised. She felt that the hacker and the igniter were more suspicious.

However, Liu Dehua refused to say the reason. After asking several times, he only replied with the word "intuition".

Yanzi curled his lips, suspecting that the other party was pretending to be sophisticated.

"Okay, so what was the secret you were going to tell me yesterday, and what's the problem with the mission issuer?"

The other party stood up, took out a stack of information from a safe, and handed it to Yanzi.

"This is information about the mechanical mastermind of Wuri City left by the previous president of Daoxiang Society."

Yan Zi flipped through it, and found that the content was very complicated, but he could probably tell that it was a record of the last cyber experiment.

Criminal experiments, accidental spoilers, the backlash of the mechanical mastermind, the withdrawal of companies, and the cancellation of the Mechanical City's designation. What is left in the end is this crime city.

"This is such a mess, just tell the truth."

"Well, to put it simply, the last group experiment of the mechanical mastermind failed. A very important reason for the failure was the emergence of a spoiler. This spoiler used a very special method to reverse the results of the group experiment. , severely damaging the mechanical mastermind."

"Look carefully, the information recorded in the data is heavy damage, not annihilation. In other words, the mechanical mastermind of Sunless City is probably still alive."

"And our mission issuer is probably the severely injured mechanical mastermind."

"Really!?" Yanzi stood up suddenly, his eyes brightening, "If this is true, we will be very developed! If we capture this mechanical mastermind, we can become the first batch of players to build a city!"

"It's not that simple," Liu Dehua said calmly: "The mysterious death of the previous president of the Daoxiang Society was probably because of this secret."

"Who did it, the one who issued the mission? The 'No Speaker'? Or the one we saw yesterday?"

"Not sure."

"Then what do you mean?" Yanzi asked.

"What I mean is that after we hand in the task, there is a high probability that it will not be the end of this matter, but the beginning. We will be dragged into a chessboard, and both sides of the chess game will use us as pawns."

"So what, the mission rewards are enough, let alone chess pieces, cannon fodder will do," Yanzi shrugged and said indifferently.

Then his expression changed again, "Hey, didn't you tell me not to hand in the task? I won't do that."

Liu Dehua sighed: "I don't mean that. I just want you to be more careful. You are right. After all, this is just a game. It is meaningless if it is too rigorous."

"Well, you should be more open-minded," Yanzi nodded, stood up and left, thought for a while, and then said: "But this kind of information sharing is still very good. Let's continue next time. Now among the entire family, I can truly trust It’s only you, don’t let me down.”

Liu Dehua watched the other party leave calmly. After the other party left completely, he took out an encrypted communicator and pressed a number.

"Hello, please pick up that person's call for me and tell him that I have important news to inform him."

…

In another room, Black Ice No. 2 also looked thoughtful, and what he recalled was his memory of last night.

Last night, he finally sneaked into the Twin Towers along the abandoned sewer system. Just as he was about to join the others, his spirit was suddenly pulled into a world full of electronic rain.

There, he unexpectedly met Baozi's boss, the mysterious NPC named Mr. G. Without saying a word, the NPC directly modified the taboo chip he installed, causing him to immediately regain his sanity.

Only then did he realize that his personality had changed drastically in the center of the game without even realizing it.

And he didn't notice this change in reality, which made him break out in a cold sweat for a moment.

Then this guy named Mr.G directly issued a special task to him.

Then, he was teleported back outside the Twin Towers.

"Mission, mission—"

[Mission: Infernal Affairs]

Difficulty: Hard

Mission briefing: In the Akudama family, there are chess pieces from different forces. Investigate their backgrounds.

Mission objective: Detect the traitor

Mission reward: +14,000 experience, a customized brain chip transformation

There was nothing wrong with the mission itself, but Black Ice 2 started to doubt life a little bit.

Is my current personality the same as before?

‘Customized brain chip modification? ’

Black Ice 2 took a deep breath, it seemed like he was going to work again.

…

At the same time, in the secret base of the biochemical geisha group, with a splash of water, a figure who was tortured appeared.

It was the missing Scissorhands.

"Oh my, what a cute boy, how could you be so cruel," a lazy voice sounded.

"Sister, he won't recruit anyone no matter what. We-"

Amidst the restless voice of the geisha, a beautiful oiran slowly walked out. Her appearance was extremely gorgeous, but it gave people a very unreal feeling, as if she were some kind of holographic image.

A certain woman also has this feeling, for example, Mrs. Hongmeng.

This is a remnant of the past era.

The eldest sister walked up to the unconscious Scissorhands, touched his cheek with her palms, and then seeped into it bit by bit.

"Well, personality distortion and transformation is indeed a bit troublesome. I don't know who twisted this little guy like this," the eldest sister showed a strange smile, "In that case, let's completely turn him into one of ours."

"Sister, what do you mean -" the geisha said in astonishment: "Inject him with geisha potion, but this is a transformation drug for women."

"He is so beautiful, isn't he more beautiful than a woman?"

…

At the same time, Gao Gong appeared in the old city of Crime City.

Unlike the old town where gangs gather in the Evernight City, the old town here is really desolate to the extreme. You can walk three streets without seeing a single person.

The senior engineer was playing with the palm-sized black box and glanced at the task bar.

[Mission completed, experience +30000, favorability of the machine +1000, reputation of the city that never sleeps +2000, incomplete mechanical system*1, bionic return fragment*1]

With the help of the "mini virtual realm" of the fourth-level civilization, Gao Gong's performance last night was even more impressive than the complete "brain in a vat". He directly turned the Twin Towers into an information world, and all encryption methods were in place. There is no difference between his eyes and transparent ones.

And the task was naturally completed.

Under normal circumstances, he can go back and report to the old machine agent.

However, when searching the memories of players in the Akudama family, he suddenly discovered something interesting.

This made him decide to take a look.

"Probably right here."

The place where Akudama family players took on the mission for the last time.

"Gallery?" Collider scratched his head, smashed the door lock, and walked into the abandoned gallery.

There was a strong smell of dust that looked like ashes.

"The signal was interrupted." Hitomi encountered the same problem as the hacker last night, but as a level 40 elite, she had many ways to deal with this.

"No. 1! No. 2! Restart the power system of this gallery."

"Okay, Sister Hitomi!"

There were two loli sounds in the air, and then there was the sound of heavy objects moving.

Then, neural modeling started, and human neural models appeared one after another, sharing neural currents with each other. Soon, an 'artificial signal tower' appeared.

The next moment, all the lights came on, various mechanisms were closed, and the controlled ones were controlled.

"Damn, so many paintings!"

On the walls on both sides, there are various oil paintings. The contents of the paintings are all kinds of people. Due to the realistic style of oil paintings, the people in these paintings are lifelike, even even The expressions are almost completely restored.

"The expressions of these people," Collider pondered for a long time and didn't know how to express it. It took a long time before he managed to formulate three words, "It's so weird."

Gao Gong looked over and found that the expressions of these people had two characteristics, the characteristics of good and the characteristics of evil.

For example, kindness and ferocity, viciousness and kindness, jealousy and tolerance.

The two emotions are wonderfully blended together, and different feelings can be seen from different angles.

"Interesting painting," Collider said cheerfully.

"It's more than interesting," Hitomi snorted, "This is the first time I've seen a lifelike painting that even depicts the nervous system."

The neural modeler used his 'programming' method, and the next moment, countless neural streams appeared in the painting.

Then, the people in the painting came out one by one.

Collider was stunned for a moment, "What is this?"

"The neural nodes are hidden in the painting, so that some ghosts in the cyber network can use these nodes to jump around."

"Isn't this just a network node, jumping from one virtual community to another." Collider understood.

"Its scope of application is smaller and the requirements are more stringent. It is more appropriate to call it a network substitute."

"So who would do this, some crime city hacker?"

"There is another possibility, for example, the remnants of the mechanical mastermind," Gao Gong smiled and said, "You'd better come out. After all, in your current state, I'm afraid you won't be able to deal with a neural modeler who goes all out. "

"It would be really ugly to find out. By then, if you want to negotiate with us, your chances won't be great."

The senior engineer stretched out his palm, and a metal top appeared.

"Once the virtual realm is opened, it is not that easy to close it."

As soon as the top came out, the eyes of all the people in the painting turned around. In their eyes, this seemed to be a small data black hole.

Finally, a steady voice sounded.

"A treasure of an advanced civilization, are you a noble in the clouds?"

The senior engineer smiled and said nothing. The top rotated randomly in various places in his palm, like a data black hole opening and closing.

"So you're not. The cloud nobles don't have the skills you do. So, was it you who pretended to be me last night?"

"I, Mr. G, have no chairman. I have long admired my name."
