Overturned Tower

Russell was stunned, and the movement of chewing food suddenly stopped.
"I didn't give it to you, I'll eat yours."
Delphinium gave Russell an angry look.
Russell then resumed chewing.
He looked back at the inferior with some doubts.
... Poisoned by his own mother?Why?
Foster mother?
"It's my biological mother."
Delphinium said softly.
"In addition to mother, there are friends."
The inferior sneered and added.
His deep voice, like a whisper, sounded very clearly in the room: "Poisoned steaks, drugged drinks. Some are poison, some are laxatives, and some are drugs that make people lose their minds and become lunatics. Some It is a drug that becomes addictive after taking it.
"I got used to it later. At the banquet, prepare your own food, don't drink water that others haven't drunk, and check the cup carefully. You must never eat the food handed over by your friends...Some people close to you betrayed you, some Then someone will use your friend to poison you."
Russell looked at the inferior in astonishment.
The inferior noticed Russell's gaze, and showed a proud, villain-like terrifying smile: "Why do you think I can cook?
"It's very simple. If I don't make food with my own hands, I won't eat it."
"...Did you offend someone?"
"offend?"
The inferior sneered: "As long as I live, I will be feared, hated, and despised by others.
"—as they named me."
Chapter 2 Re-engineering
Incomprehensible experience.
Russell couldn't imagine why a mother would poison her own child... and she was still seven or eight years old, after calling her mother for seven or eight years.
What made Russell even more incomprehensible was after that——
The inferior claims: "Mother tried to kill me, it was her mercy. I will not hate her.
"That's when I also understood...the more I cry, the happier some people laugh; if I choose to be happy, they'll be happier.
"That's why I live. Don't laugh or cry... live with anger."
Russell wanted to continue asking questions.
But Delphinium held Russell back.
This should be to prevent the inferior from continuing to be angry - she quietly sent a message to Russell.He said that he would talk about this matter with Russell alone when the inferior was away.
Afterwards, she sent a task to the inferior, asking him to take Russell to meet the devil.
"The previous application to the board of directors has been passed, and you can go in for two hours."
Delphinium ordered: "Remember to keep an eye on Qunqing and don't let him run around. Then you go to [Peter Pan] and get two original chips... one is for me and one is for Qunqing. I have already passed on the requirements to him. Then go to [Winter Day] to sign and extend the time."
Afterwards, the inferior ones closed their mouths and accelerated their eating speed.
After a quick meal, he took Russell on the road.
Russell huddled in the back seat of the floating car, flipping through yesterday's news in boredom.
"……what?"
When he saw a certain piece of news, Russell was stunned for a moment.
After carefully reading the news, he leaned on the driver's seat and asked, "The bad one?"
"Say."
"Have you heard that the angel is coming back?"
"……Angel?"
The inferior looked back in surprise: "The church's mechanical angel?"
For some reason, just seeing the expression on the face of the inferior, Russell felt a vague sense of excitement.
"You keep driving and I'll read to you."
Russell signaled the inferior to turn his head to look at the road and drive hard, and then read:
"In response to the recent intensified gang crimes in the downtown area, Pope [Ascension-12] initiated the 'Angel's Resurrection' motion on the 10th of last month, which was approved by the Cardinal Council with a ratio of 3:[-].
"The wake-up procedure is divided into three stages. In the first stage, 49 angels were unfrozen. The unfreezing process has been completed a few days ago. The angels will arrive at each sky island before the 21st to assist the head office to jointly deal with the problem of the lower city.
"The commentator 'Tantra' claims that this move will significantly increase the church's discourse power in the sky islands, and Shenzhi Heavy Industry has considered withdrawing the resolution that 'teachers are not allowed to enter the board of directors'. However, considering the impact on criminal organizations in the lower city The large-scale action will easily cause damage to the factories in the lower urban area, affect the supply of food and daily necessities, and the price may fluctuate slightly in the near future..."
"...I thought angels were just a legend."
The inferior muttered: "Why did you suddenly wake up the angel...
"Because the 'Seven Giants' have gradually tightened the church's power recently? Or has the church's influence declined too much?"
He squeezed slightly with the hands that controlled the ball.
"I do not know either."
Russell shook his head and sat back.
But he lied.
He knows much more than the inferiors—
Before seeing the news, Russell had learned about the thawing of the mechanical angels from the deer head portrait.
The existence of the "mage" is strictly kept secret in each sky island.Because once you want to explain the mage, you must explain the psionic power and the chip.
This is purely redundant.After all, people are used to the existence of chips and take them for granted...and treat the uncoded as natural criminals.
This is undoubtedly beneficial to chip assembly.
If people know the true meaning of chips, there will definitely be "anti-chip" organizations.That's when it gets in trouble.
At present, people only know that "there were two world wars", but they don't know the two sides... Even most people don't know that they lived on the ground, not on the sky island.
The information from the deer head statue told Russell one thing... that is, a new mage organization has begun to appear in the lower city.
Children born between uncoded and uncoded, born uncoded—in these groups, it is possible to give birth to mages.
And these mages are the successors of the old mages.
The purpose of the old mages was very simple, to destroy the floating island...and make it fall.As for these "sinners who have turned their backs on the earth", it is of course also necessary to destroy them.
Of course, they want to go home.
Russell believes that these new mages will definitely not obey these crazy old mages-the life in the upper city is much better than that in the lower city...and even the living environment in the lower city is far better than the ground.
The kids who grew up in the lower city are much wiser than the mages who are already mad or half mad.
They may be bad, but they are not stupid.Because the stupid ones are dead.
Russell can be sure that they must have their own purposes.However, they will definitely not turn against the "mentors" until they achieve their goals.
And this means that they can get the support of those mad mages to some extent.
Including the "Veil of Ignorance"... these new mages are behind many of the lower city criminal organizations.
As the mage's old enemy - after getting the real evidence of "the reappearance of the mage", the Cyber Church thawed part of the frozen angelic legion.
It's a try.
Although there was a contract a hundred years ago, if the mage reappears, the church has the right to intervene to prevent the revival of the mage.
But that was 100 years ago after all.
People don't remember the Islamic War, the war that almost destroyed the world.They don't have much fear of mages and angels, and they don't have any understanding... Under such circumstances, if a thousand fully armed angels are all unfrozen and stationed in the sky islands, it will inevitably cause a full-scale reaction from the people.
These angels are all antiques from the Age of Law.
They don't even know what a "chip" is...their slumber was even before the invention of the chip, so they are of course also a kind of "uncoded".
In order to prevent them from turning into uncensored people who are shouted and beaten by everyone, the head office will definitely carry out some kind of treatment, and the church will gradually slow down the rhythm of angels appearing, and let the angels create a better image.
Russell believes that in the near future, the angels will make a grand "appearance", and use this method to increase the public's acceptance of angels...
But the head office is definitely not happy.
In the era of the sky all over the company, the armed forces of the elves were unprecedentedly weak.After all, the giant dragon did not allow the seven giants to establish an armed department, and the elves were still trying their best to control the number of psykers... But these angels were all elite veterans of the Second Dafa War.
Although Russell didn't have a clear impression of Angel's strength, he made a bold guess—I'm afraid Angel is at the level of a human figure, at least at the strength of a psyker above level six, in order to have a strong enough impact on the war.
Even if there are only seven people... But the existence of angels is a kind of negation of the "executive department".
In the executive department of Happy Island, there are probably less than seven psykers who have surpassed level six and completed the second awakening.
The only ones who can defeat angels are probably the elves who survived the religious war.
This is why the church does not want to fully unfreeze the angels.
After all, the upper echelons of the church are also elves.Elves do take power and influence, but only if they don't cause trouble for other elves.
Russell had a hunch—
After the angel reappears, I am afraid that the technological armed forces of Sky Island will be greatly improved in a short period of time.
Armed with science and technology also means that the lower city may also be able to master it.
This means an escalation of violent conflict...
"--arrive."
The cold voice of the inferior interrupted Russell's thinking: "Get ready to get off."
Russell looked up.
It was found that they had reached a dense forest area far away from the urban area.
And this "prison" where demons are held, now looks... like a simple mountain villa?
In other words, it is a research institute like a villa.
The sign on it also didn't mention the words "criminal" and "demon" for a long time.
I saw that it said:
[Tianen Memory Armed Research Institute]
There is also a line of small characters below, which reads [Memory Armed Regeneration and Construction Organ].
"...Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
"This is the prison where the demons are held, referred to as the reconstruction institution."
The inferior said flatly: "Follow me, Qunqing."
Chapter 3 Bright Road
Russell had never heard of the name "Reconstruction Agency".
He subconsciously turned on the map location - not surprisingly, Russell did not find the existence of this building from the map navigation.
It is empty on the map as a whole, it does not exist at all.
Even when Russell went to the search engine to search for "Reengineering Agency" and "Tianen Memory Armed Research Institute", he could hardly find anything.
The only thing that can be found is that in a news article about the destruction of residential buildings in the upper city by armed mercenaries in the lower city, a commentator once mentioned the term "reconstruction agency".But the netizens who noticed this incident below seem to understand it as a special facility similar to a juvenile reformatory, or simply a coined word... More people don't care about this strange word at all. .
And the name of this commentator, Russell is also very familiar.
It was the commentator named "Tantra" in the news that Russell just saw.
...Having leaked this level of secrets, can you still continue to serve as a commentator to explain such a big event as the angel's resurrection?
Russell guessed almost immediately that the commentator, who went by the pseudonym "Tantra," was probably a genie.
