Mysterious Tribulation

Chapter 1015 Medicine

"More than eighty years left..."

Walking out of the Life Bank, Chloe looked at Aaron as if he was looking at a gold mine, with indescribable envy in his tone: "That is to say, you can live to be at least a hundred years old, which is really a long life..."

"Are there no long-lived people around you?"

Aaron asked casually.

Chloe's expression instantly turned gloomy: "No... Many people died soon after losing their jobs because their accounts ran out of time... My parents, they, they also chose to leave the remaining accounts after they were fired. The balance has been transferred to me..."

"Feel sorry……"

Aaron sighed and turned to other questions: "Can I access the metaverse anywhere in the world?"

"certainly!"

Jason answered as a matter of course, as if it is normal for people to eat and drink.

"So...except for a few natural persons, almost all human beings open accounts in the Bank of Life, plus time can be traded... Then those bank executives and directors... Can't they live for a long time?"

Aaron suddenly thought of a question.

The life limit of this world seems to have been bypassed!

"Mmmm! Those noble masters in the upper city can generally live for hundreds of years..." Wilson nodded vigorously, with indescribable envy on his face: "As for the Leviathan giant's Life Bank, it is said that those directors did not Old and dead, from the establishment of the bank to the present, they call themselves 'Longevity'! But we prefer to call them vampires!"

"Very appropriate!"

Aaron nodded, and went to the Cyber ​​Group to stroll around the virtual store in the Metaverse.

All kinds of mechanical prosthetics are sold here, such as the very well-selling mechanical arm-Labor III!

If you don't have it, you don't even have the qualifications to go to the construction site to move bricks!

"If I'm going to buy it, how do I trade it?"

Aaron pointed to a robotic arm.

The beautiful woman in the clerk's costume replied in a sweet voice: "Our company provides free door-to-door delivery service, as long as you are in a certain city, it can be delivered... If it's just skills, as long as your chip is suitable, Mr. It can be transmitted!"

Aaron always felt that this woman was a little familiar, and it seemed that she had the same skin as the female bank employee.

I just don't know if it's male or female.

He came to the virtual skill area and looked at it casually:

[Driving (Universal): Elementary]

[Note: You can master the ability to drive a C-class hover vehicle and a floating spaceship... It needs a Gaia sequence 007 or higher chip to carry it! 】

【Price: 100 days! 】

...

[Driving (Universal): Intermediate]

[Explanation: Master most of the civil mechanical driving skills and some military floating craft driving skills... It needs to be carried by Gaia sequence 017 chips or above! 】

【Price: 300 days! 】

...

【Fighting: Beginner】

【Price: 50 days】

...

【Firearm Shooting: Advanced】

【Price: 1000 days】

...

A variety of dazzling skills, knowledge... exudes a seductive light.

It just takes time! Enough time! ! You can buy the corresponding module, inject it into the chip, and learn it instantly!

Aaron swept around with interest, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"Less... basic subjects!"

"Even if a person downloads a module through a chip and learns to drive a spaceship, he just knows what it is, but he doesn't know why... If this goes on, it will only train mechanic, and the scientific research ability will be exhausted!"

"In addition, in the metaverse of virtual reality, you can enjoy any food, beauties, and satisfy all human desires... This is no longer a mental narcotics at the level of nipple music, but a spiritual atomic bomb!"

Aaron sighed and adjusted his glasses.

This is the exit procedure he set up.

The next moment, he returned to the airship in reality, and countless yellow sand flew towards him.

"Brother Aaron!"

Beside, the skinny Arthur and the ugly-faced Wilson shouted excitedly: "You will be our brother in the future!"

On their accounts, the balance is in single digits!

How does it compare to this tycoon?

If it wasn't for the accounts of Life Bank that were directly bound to personal brain waves, maybe they even robbed Aaron's heart!

Uh……

Aaron watched with cold eyes, feeling that these four people should not rob him, and they were generally considered good people.

'Even if the account is unique and bound, there are ways to robbery...'

Aaron put his right hand on the car door and narrowed his eyes slightly.

At dusk, the outline of a huge city appeared before Aaron.

The first is a black spot that suddenly appeared on the horizon.

And then... the black spots are getting bigger and bigger, towering like a mountain, it is a city built with countless reinforced concrete and metal.

Red, green, blue, yellow... The neon lights of various colors began to shine brightly before it was dark.

The various colors play together, tearing apart the darkness completely, creating horrific light pollution even during the day.

Countless floating boats, planes, and even the floating car driven by the old man were like densely packed bees, flying in and out of the hive.

When he got closer to the "city that never sleeps", Aaron felt that something was wrong.

The tall buildings he had seen before were indeed there, but only in the center of the city that never sleeps.

Outside the city center, there are ten times the area...

"Is this a slum?"

Aaron looked at the low and dilapidated shacks, all kinds of pipes and wires were directly exposed, and some were even Sanwu houses built with waste cardboard, and could not help but be silent.

Originally, he thought that the world was so developed that he would see a city full of sci-fi in the metaverse!

Now it seems that such cities do exist, but only in Uptown!

The slums in the Xiacheng District are still dirty and even darkened for thousands of years!

"Welcome to the city that never sleeps, the city where the light never ends!"

The old man parked his car outside a dilapidated garbage dump and shouted loudly.

Aaron looked over and saw in a shack not far away, a gorgeous woman with undulating mountains in front of her chest was chasing and beating a skinny man: "Dare to prostitute for nothing? Look at the mother not to smash your lower body!"

Not far away, a few sneaky guys who look like gang members are collecting protection money from a few children...

Further away, there were occasional explosions and the sound of gunfire...

"It's...a very dynamic city."

Aaron sighed.

"All cities are like this, wanting a safe environment, beautiful neighborhoods...simply, go uptown!"

Jason put his arms around Aaron's shoulders next to him: "But brother, your money is barely enough, but your identity is definitely not enough... You are a black household in the city that never sleeps! Do you want to set up a household registration? I know someone who can give it to you. You get 20% off!"

"Don't listen to Jason, he can know a ghost!" The old man parked the car and sneered: "Why don't I find a reliable middleman for you, and only need a little fee for the middleman..."

As he spoke, he rubbed the index finger and thumb of his right hand.

Aaron immediately understood, pressed the virtual glasses, transferred the old man for 30 days, and also paid Jason for the glasses equipment.

"The boss is big! What else needs to be served?"

Jason showed a pleasant smile: "The old man is still smart. This trip is equivalent to returning with a full reward. Everyone can share at least seven days! I want to take a vacation, I want to take a half-day vacation, no, one day!"

Chloe rolled his eyes: "Jason, don't throw money into virtual reality games, you'll die!"

She looked at Aaron again, and suggested seriously: "Actually, the hukou in Evernight City is useless... The most important thing here is aristocratic status! Without aristocratic status, you can't enter the upper city, and you will be beaten to death by those iron-headed guards. of!"

"Iron head guard?"

Aaron hears a brand new term again.

"It is the person who has lost everything and sold himself to the Cyber ​​Company. After the transformation, 90% of the organs in the body have been replaced, leaving only a head wrapped in an iron shell..."

The old man knocked on his head and showed a creepy smile: "If you lift the skulls of those guards, you will see a brain in a glass petri dish..."

"Living in a slum does not require any identity, just money... and money can be transferred and traded through the virtual reality network..."

Chloe finally gave a piece of advice: "Watch out for those gangs, they're like scavenging hyenas."

Aaron was keenly aware of a slight difference from these descriptions.

'The high-level executives of Never Sleeping City have different interests with the three Leviathan giants...'

'Also, Life Bank is chasing the highest profits, and I wish all natural persons all over the world would connect to the Gaia network and digitize their life expectancy... The aristocrats of the city that never sleeps, at most they are local tyrants in a small area, and they are closely related to Gaia Network, Life Bank, and Cyber ​​Group. A world-class giant, nothing compares to...'

He thought for a while, looked at Chloe, and smiled: "You are very honest, miss... Then, I want to hire you again."

"Hire... me?" Chloe pointed to himself, a little wary: "What do you want to do... I tell you, my manipulator is very powerful..."

"Chloe, you are a good person, I just came to this city, and I want to ask you to find me a safe, quiet room, as well as water and food... Of course, I will not lack your intermediary and protection cost."

Aaron didn't care what Chloe thought, speaking his mind.

He does need a 'guide'.

As for being scammed?

For a true 'Longevity One', even a hundred years, a thousand years... are just floating clouds.

"I……"

Chloe was still hesitating, but the old man and Jason quickly agreed: "No problem, Chloe is happy to serve Mr. ... As a team, we will also provide support for Chloe."

The old man even straightened his back and looked like a housekeeper: "Dear Mr. Aaron, I have lived in this place for more than 40 years, where accommodation is cheap, where the most beautiful women, and where the goods are the most powerful. , the old man knows it!"

"Life...forty years?"

Aaron looked at the old man: "Are you in your forties?"

"Of course..." Wilson next to him explained: "In our place, the average person will be fired at the age of thirty-five, and the one who can live to the age of forty is an old man..."

Looking at the vicissitudes of life on the old man's face, Aaron could only put his hands in his pockets.

Well...you have the final say!

...

After a while, Aaron, who transformed into a slum boy, came to a block under the leadership of Jason, Wilson, the old man and other doglegs.

Although this block is still very bad, it is still a reinforced concrete building. Although it is generally only one or two floors, it is still much stronger than a shack built with waste cardboard.

"Master Aaron, this place is called 'Comet Street', it's the best and safest place in the slum..."

The old man introduced with emotion: "I know a landlord here. She happens to have a house to rent. It is definitely big enough and quiet enough to meet your needs!"

Boom!

As soon as the words fell, Aaron saw a two-story building not far away that was bombed into the sky, and a figure rushed out of the smoke, shouting while running: "Accept the revenge of nature... disgusting transformation. people!"

Dudu!

One after another mecha appeared, and the smooth lines made them run very fast, holding firearms with strong firepower in their hands.

Especially their heads, which are reinforced layer by layer, are like iron skulls.

"Uptown guard!"

Chloe screamed and took Aaron down to the ground with experience, looking for cover.

"Damn... I met a lunatic from the 'Forest Society'!"

The old man scolded: "Natural people are lunatics! The mysterious sects are even crazier!"

After he finished cursing, seeing Aaron next to him, he waved his hand quickly: "Sorry...Master Aaron, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about those idiots of the Forest Society!"

"What forest club?"

Aaron showed interest.

Although he was a little puzzled as to why this natural person didn't know about the forest, Chloe quickly replied: "Mysterious sect is just a general term, the believers in it worship various gods of the past, and now they are called 'Old Gods'. God', 'Old Days' guy...they are not very normal, no, there are still normal people, I'm not talking about Mr. Aaron..."

"I understand, I understand..." Aaron smiled. "And then what?"

"Among all the mystical sects, the forest is the most radical, they worship an old god called 'pupa' or 'cocoon' and believe that the over-exploitation of energy is the main culprit that leads to desertification of the land and environmental pollution ... They are madly hostile to all high-tech, and will instigate attacks, especially against the cyber group!"

"So that's how it is..." Aaron looked as usual: "Although I come from a mysterious sect, my purpose is relatively peaceful and friendly, and I don't advocate the use of violence to solve problems."

A few people just lay on their stomachs, and after the chase left, they stood up as if nothing had happened.

According to Jason, get used to it, get used to it...

Aaron followed the old man and got into a building.

"Black Mansha! Black Mansha! I'm here to introduce you to the business!"

The old man shouted carelessly, but there was no response in the empty corridor. The floor was full of various fast food boxes and empty bottles of nutrient solution.

"No, something happened!"

The old man was very experienced and went straight to Black Mantha's bedroom.

After kicking open the bedroom door, an indescribable smell came out.

Aaron frowned and saw a woman with black curly hair lying on the floor in the bedroom, with her legs spread out and half leaning against the foot of the bed.

Her eyes turned white, her face was lost, and her body was incontinent.

It looks like a spoiled doll.

"No, Hei Mantha is sick again. Who of you brought medicine?"

Chloe looked anxiously at Jason and Wilson, but saw that the two embarrassedly turned their pockets out, and there was nothing in them...
