Chapter 569 Joining the "Company"
The next 72 hours...
In the manor, Chen Ke and his friends' private room quickly completed the basic decoration and layout.
According to Chen Ke's request, Shreli asked the construction team to seal the windows, pull the network cable, and install a bathroom heater, a shower head and a comfortable water-spraying toilet for the bathroom.
A signal shielding plate was buried in the wall of the room, which not only isolated the external detection signal but also prevented the indoor heat signal from being detected. At the same time, a sound-absorbing carpet was laid on the floor.
Li Moyang did not allow others to approach this room, and the corridor connected to it became a restricted area. Most of the time, they could stay in this room instead of hiding in Chen Ke's Fantasy Center. After all, compared with the shelter, the Fantasy Center is more like a prison cell.
Chen Ke just talked to Li Moyang about the supply of firearms. He needs guns, a lot of guns. With the cooperation of the dimensional pocket and the divine blood bullet, Chen Ke is now a human arsenal, and can truly do the operation of "pulling a bunch of guns from the crotch".
You can buy guns freely in the United States, but you need a gun license. Hunting guns are easy to buy, but pistols require strict identification, and military automatic weapons are directly banned from the market.
Li Moyang is not Pihom, and his connections are useless in the United States. Problems that can be solved with money are not a problem for him, but if money is troublesome to solve, or simply cannot be solved, then he has to think of a way.
"I need some time. The guns you want are all military weapons. The police and military HK416s are not even available on the black market." Li Moyang said.
"I have no use for an AR15 that can only fire single shots. I need a full-size automatic rifle to deal with most situations." Chen Ke said.
He now has Li Moyang's grenade launcher in his hand. The shotgun and pistol were damaged in the battle.
Chen Ke plans to equip at least five weapons, a high-powered Magnum pistol, a spray gun, an automatic rifle, a 9mm pistol, and a grenade launcher, which just make up the five major killers in FPS games.
Chen Ke had considered sniping, but he didn't know how to use it. In an urban environment, within a range of 500 meters, an automatic rifle adjusted to single shot with a scope attached could also be used for sniping, so he gave up the idea of getting a sniper.
"I need to think of a way to get an automatic rifle. There is no problem with the others, but you have to wait for a while, because I am still busy looking for a new place for us to move to. I hope to get this done within 6 months." Li Moyang said.
"6 months... too long." Chen Ke shook his head.
"Your concept of time seems to be different from others... I don't mean to blame you, but I always feel like you are in a hurry." Li Moyang said.
"I'm used to racing against time, and now I'm much slower than before." Chen Ke said.
Since opening the Dream Center, he has not paid much attention to the time display in the upper right corner of his vision. The gods do not have a deep understanding of human language. When they communicate with people, they will borrow some wrong words to express their meaning.
When the life countdown reaches 0, Chen Ke will not die, he will just be sent back to the fantasy dream center. The so-called life span is actually just a countdown in the dream world.
I wonder if this thing can be renamed?
As soon as Chen Ke had this idea, the words "time countdown" disappeared, and a character input symbol kept flashing.
It can really be changed... Then change it to "world residence time".
Chen Ke thought about it, and the words changed. From then on, the life countdown became the world residence time, and then the prompt also changed.
"World residence countdown: 49 hours, 12 minutes and 23 seconds."
This is much more pleasing to the eye.
"Chen Ke? Chen Ke? Are you in a daze?" Li Moyang looked at Chen Ke with a strange look.
"I just remembered something else and went wild." Chen Ke smiled.
"The acquisition of Lescott has been completed. The next step is the S Consortium. If I take these two companies into my pocket, the Opportunity City will be completely mine, but there are constant pressures from the municipal government." Li Moyang said.
"Someone is constantly looking for trouble with you. I think you should also know that these consortiums are not independent. I heard that the giants of the spiritual enterprises in the whole federation have formed an organization called the company. They are doing some strange things in secret." Chen Ke said.
"Yes, I have known for a long time that their power in the federation is quite deep. It is not easy to shake it. I have tried to buy off their marginal members and gradually infiltrate them. I even tried to use capital to impact their stock market, but all ended in failure." Li Moyang admitted generously.
"What about now? What new method have you thought of?" Chen Ke asked.
"Join them." Li Moyang said.
"If it goes as expected, the person who came to assassinate you is probably sent by the company. They will either reject you or set up a Hongmen Banquet for you." Chen Ke said.
"Of course I know, I am not a fool. Joining them is not the purpose, but to meet them." Li Moyang said.
"When you want to deal with someone, at the very least, you have to know what he looks like." Chen Ke nodded.
"So you also think this is a good idea?" Li Moyang asked.
"As long as you can hide your big armor, otherwise they will definitely put a dozen Italian cannons outside the door waiting for you." Chen Ke shook his head.
"When will the Italian cannons be fired?" Li Moyang wondered.
Chen Ke forgot that there is no country called Italy in this world, so he scratched his head and thought about how to explain it.
"Just think of it as something like Superman." Chen Ke said.
"I won't wear that thing. I just need to bring a bodyguard." Li Moyang said with a smile.
Chen Ke knew what he meant.
"I think they will set a trap, and after we get in, they will shoot us all to death." Chen Ke said.
"It is also possible that we can really meet them. Who knows? I think it is worth taking the risk." Li Moyang said.
"When?" Chen Ke didn't waste any words.
"I'm waiting for their information. The other party seems to be considering whether I will set a trap." Li Moyang said.
"I know. I will stay here these days and not go anywhere." Chen Ke said.
The company, this organization he had seen indirectly a long time ago, but its level was too high. With Chen Ke's status in the United Federation, he basically had no way to contact it. This time, with the help of Li Moyang as a springboard, he finally got a glimpse of the company's true face.
Of course, there is a high probability that he will directly fall into someone else's trap, but he still has enough souls in his hands, so it will not be difficult to get out of it unscathed.
Li Moyang said goodbye, and Chen Ke turned and entered the room. He saw Diana sitting in her newly bought pajamas, playing on the computer, while Lucina and Parker stood behind her, concentrating on the screen.
"You can't get through this bend, the container is too long." Lucina said as she looked.
"It seems that there are some scratches behind..." Parker also said.
"I can get through... Don't talk too much, let me concentrate..." Diana frowned, she carefully pressed the direction key, and twisted her body left and right in front of the screen.
Chen Ke walked forward curiously and stopped to look. It turned out that Diana was playing Euro Truck Simulator...
