Ten-Dimensional Covenant [Unlimited]
Chapter 222 Happy New Year
"I don't know..." Xiao Hechou looked at Fan Yuanshan's body and muttered to himself.
Yuzhou spread out his palm, gently stroked the two crooked words on it, his courage seemed to come back, and he said: "No, I believe that there is no predestined fate, it only gives the greatest possibility, but the future Exactly how it is depends on people to come out step by step.”
Xiao Hechou was a little surprised, but then she pursed her lips slightly, "It's really good of you to think so."
The sound of the conversation between the two quickly reached Fan Yinyin's ears. She raised her head and looked at the colorless sky.
Then her tears gushed out again, she put down the body of her brother who had guarded her all her life, and rushed into Xiao Hechou's arms, crying heartbreakingly, as if she wanted to pour out all her confusion and pain.
"Hey." Xiao Hechou patted Fan Yinyin's back lightly, and embraced her silently.
"Why don't you stay with him first, and I'll come back when I find my sister-in-law?" Seeing that Fan Yinyin was crying endlessly and the sky was getting dark, Yuzhou said.
"No, no, no, where are you going? I'll go with you." Fan Yinyin wiped away her tears, holding on to Xiao Hechou's sleeve, afraid that if she let go, the person in front of her would fly away.
Xiao Hechou looked at Yuzhou and asked with his eyes: What do you think?
Yuzhou nodded. He sailed the boat so low that he came to find survivors.
The ship set sail again, and Fan Yinyin was arranged in the back seat to take care of the baby.It's just that she was only in her early 20s and had little experience. After a while of fuss, she didn't put the child to sleep, but made him cry.
"I'll do it." In the end, Xiao Hechou took the job.
"I'm sorry, I can't help you with anything." Fan Yinyin's tears fell down again.
. . .
As the sun set, the clouds in the sky dyed the sky and the earth golden red.Everything froze in its arms, like sleeping in the heaven of death.
A few people from Yuzhou soon came to the branch of the United Laboratory in the suburbs of City B. He broke into the laboratory with violence and quickly invaded the laboratory, finding Yang Feifei.
He didn't spend much effort, because the entire experimental institute gathered together in that spacious lecture hall.
The corpses of more than 40 researchers fell in their respective positions, holding black gel pens in their hands, and a notebook in front of them, and they did not know what they were writing down.
Yuzhou walked up to Yang Feifei. She was wearing a white and green floral dress with a white coat over it. The corners of the thin skirt were fluttering back and forth with the wind blowing from the window.And she herself was lying quietly on the table, falling into a deep sleep.
Yuzhou tidied up her wind-blown hair to cover up the hideous scar.
Only then did she take the pen holder from her hand, flatten her body, put it into a blank card, and put it together with Han Jiuli's body.
After doing all this, he picked up the notebook in Yang Feifei's hand.
I saw that it said:
1. The internal structure of the hull is very strange, like the internal structure of some kind of creature, but it is not a shark, not even an aquatic creature.
2. The man on the left belongs to a certain mysterious religion, and his status is not low. The prayer action of this religion is to make a fist with his right hand, stick his index finger close to the center of his eyebrows, and bow his head to silently recite the slogan.
3. The man on the right did not hide his identity. He is the owner of the "Robber", code-named no1.
. . .
When Yuzhou saw this, his doubts became more and more intense. It didn't seem to have anything to do with scientific research, but it seemed to be recording a certain video.Why, why did the sister-in-law record this before she died?
His eyes glanced around, and quickly locked on to the projector directly in front of him. The projection screen was black, marking the end of a certain video.
Yuzhou went up and turned on the video again.
On the screen, in the deep and dark starry sky, an inconspicuous space station was swaying towards the atmosphere. When it was 5000 meters above the ground, a fist-sized Rubik's cube fell off and fell rapidly towards the "Looting" directly below it.
Yuzhou immediately understood what the video was going to show next. He turned his head, and the moment his eyes came into contact with Xiao Hechou, the other party stood up consciously and walked to the end of the lecture hall, 15 miles away from him.
Yuzhou nodded to Xiao Hechou, and soon returned to the video itself. He picked up Yang Feifei's notes and watched while comparing them.
In the video, when the Rubik's Cube touched the surface of the bubble, it was not isolated like many missiles and nuclear bombs. It was very quiet and quietly blended into the bubble without being noticed by anyone.
After passing through this layer of barriers, the journey of the Rubik's Cube did not stop here. It fell to the top of the Raider, and then crossed the hull like passing through a bubble.
Yuzhou squinted his eyes, there was no space to teleport, and there was no tearing hole, the Rubik's Cube just passed through the reinforced iron frame slowly, how did it do it?
After the Rubik's Cube fell into the hull, it quickly disintegrated into 10 pieces, and then flew in all directions. They saw walls pass through walls and doors pass through doors, and quickly disappeared from sight.
And the screen continued to move forward with a piece of red disintegrated body, looking for the main control room all the way.
What I saw and heard on the way, as Yang Feifei said in his notes, the internal structure of the "Looter" should be built to imitate some kind of creature. Each cabin is an organ, and there are faintly pulsating blood vessels on the ship's walls.
But it should not be a shark. It has no gill slits, let alone gills. Its intestines are extremely thick and long, coiled and coiled like a spring, which is very different from sharks with short intestines.
In addition to the heart, liver, spleen and stomach, there are more than 20 unknown organs in the body, but except for the mouth and intestines, there are no other organs connected to the outside world.
Cloaca?No no no, it has no genitals at all.
Maybe it's asexual reproduction, maybe it has some kind of reproduction that doesn't exist on earth.
Yuzhou kept this doubt in his heart, and stopped thinking about it. He followed the camera all the way and entered the main control room - the heart of the mysterious creature.
There, in the place where six billion lives were taken, stood three beings, two ordinary human males and a demon.
The devil is a real devil, its bloated body is like a gourd, with stinky pus flowing all year round.The organs are arranged in no order, and 15 eyes tear the skin and protrude from all corners of the body.Whereas the head should have eyes, there is an abyss gap that runs through the top of the head and the chin.
Except for the demons, the remaining two are not real humans.
That's skin.
Yuzhou recognized it for a while, and replayed a certain passage repeatedly, before he recognized the patterns on the arms of the two. It was the logo of a certain skin company, and there was a serial number of the skin on it.
It's a pity that he heard from Jieshu that the products produced by this company are all street stalls, 100 pieces for 3 dust, which are sold in all streets and alleys, so it is difficult to locate buyers through skin.
The screen continues to jump.
The man on the left and the demon on the right are chatting in low voices about a delicacy-Sollund blood sausage.
The devil on the right said that he likes the dipping sauce, and only a delicacy of the level of Solund blood sausage can match the specialty of the White Fairway-yusheng sauce.
And the man on the left said with a strange look that only heretics would enjoy food like this, and it should be put in the oven to be baked with Bona shortcake and waxed giant wing duck legs.
The man in the middle remained silent.
Seeing this, the person on the left put his shoulders on his shoulders: "What's the matter, I've been staring at the screen, what's so interesting about this primitive society?"
The corner of the mouth of the person in the middle twitched, and he broke his shoulders away from the opponent's hand without any trace: "It's nothing."
"There may be another mystery here." The voice of the demon on the right was as cold as iron, and it was as cold as a living person.
The person on the left asked about the mystery, but no one answered him.
Yuzhou looked at the time marked at the bottom of the video. Calculated, it happened to be the time when the bubbles began to collapse. Unconsciously.
Sure enough, not long after, the man in the middle spoke. His voice was electronically synthesized, with a kind of superior majesty: "Stop joking, 23, there seems to be something wrong with the cessation membrane."
The demon's head was split on both sides, and the thick and long tongue licked the gap between the teeth: "Something went wrong, how could it be possible, the energy is very stable, and the band scanner didn't find any intrusion of objects."
23. It seems that the man on the right is the sweeper no23.Yuzhou thought.
Just after no23 finished saying this sentence, the behemoth floating in the air suddenly jolted violently.
no23's eyes became sharp instantly, he withdrew his casual attitude, six completely different hands danced back and forth on hundreds of touch screens and buttons,
"Something really came in, but I couldn't find it."
Demon no23 flashed the surveillance videos of more than 10 cabins in front of his eyes, but found nothing abnormal.The self-inspection system was turned on, countless irregular numbers jumped on the screen, and fine beads of sweat gradually oozed from his forehead.
"Perhaps, you need God's help." The man on the left suggested, his expression was very calm, not like joking.
After speaking, he made a strange movement, which was exactly the prayer movement Yang Feifei described in his notes.
Devil no23 didn't express his opinion, but the man in the middle walked up to the screen, pointed to a certain place on the light screen, "Here."
The devil no23 also noticed the strangeness, pointing fingers, and found a piece of Rubik's Cube cleavage in the fast-moving light screen information.
It is surrounding the power source of the spaceship, the energy port of the stop membrane, making a certain regular circular motion.
And with its movement, the smooth reaction chain was disrupted, and there was a sign of loss of control.
"What is this?" The man on the left frowned.
The man in the middle didn't speak, and he didn't seem to understand what it was.
"Crankshaft Rubik's Cube." The devil no23 opened his mouth at this time, he seemed a little surprised, his frightening mouth opened even wider, "This card only appeared in the pass draw of the Lixingo ruins, why did it just appear?" Planets that join the convention will have this card?"
"What? The ruins of Lixingo." The man on the left forgot to pray, "That's a dungeon with a difficulty of sss."
The man standing in the middle was also breathless: "Could it be that there is someone behind them?"
After a while,
The man on the left regained his composure. He stretched out his right index finger, put it between his eyebrows, said a prayer silently, and then said: "No4 Don't be nervous, the omnipotent God, the Lord of all things, is on our side. "
"Do you have a solution?" No4 in the middle ignored him and turned to ask no23.
Devil no23 was silent for a moment: "Of course, no one is more familiar with it than me."
After that, the screen flickered for a while, then quickly dimmed, and nothing could be seen.
Yuzhou knew that the crankshaft Rubik's Cube had been solved.
From this video, he learned some things. First of all, these three people may not be familiar with each other. Except for the devil, the other two used skin and synthetic electronic sounds, which shows that they do not trust each other.
This is an agglomeration driven only by profit.
Secondly, this looting ship should belong to no23, and the remaining two people probably don't know anything about manipulating spaceships.
In the end, Yuzhou took out the card ["Li"] in the ruins of Lixinge.
Crankshaft Rubik's Cube, a card that should not appear here, why did it appear, and who left it on the earth?And since that person chose to keep the card, does it mean that he has a good attitude towards human beings?
Judging by the apprehensive appearance of no4, it seems that everyone who cleared the Lixinge ruins is the best of the best.
Then can I find that master, ask him to take action, and kill these three people.
"Now, the primary goal is to find out the identities of those three people." Yuzhou flipped through Yang Feifei's notes, which listed many details that he hadn't noticed, most of which were to analyze the behavior patterns and handling details of these three people.Yuzhou nodded frequently after seeing it.
Among them, Yang Feifei mentioned a point of view, collectivization and concealment.
Collectivization:
Because of the unimaginable profits, there should be strong internal competition in the sweeper industry.At the same time, because of the cruel methods and the anger of the sky and the people, they will surely suffer from powerful external suppression.
Therefore, in mutual killings and external attacks, some people unite and some people are expelled, and finally a few stable monopoly groups will be formed.
And these reorganized sweepers are not individuals. Behind them, there must be a complete industrial chain.
The chain includes obtaining information on the newly promoted dungeons (planets that have newly joined the convention), investigating the strength and technological level of intelligent species in the newly promoted dungeons, the technology of entering unknown star fields without planetary codes, and erasing their own whereabouts. The ability to fight against remaining forces, etc.
Secondly, she brought up the concept of concealment.
Sweepers are hunters, but they must keep their tails between their legs and not reveal their true identities.
Because the ten-dimensional convention provides an extremely open and uncertain environment.In this environment, the ants at the bottom can soar into the sky and become the eagles ruling the sky, and the lions galloping in the forest may also be blinded by birds.
Everyone in this profit chain is extremely vicious, and everyone wants to tear a piece of meat from the sweepers at the top of the food chain, such as Shanfeng and Water Ghost.Moreover, they do have the strength to snatch food from the mouth of a tiger, and even have the opportunity to replace it.
In addition, the massacre of the clan was very vengeful.Among the surviving survivors, there are always a few who can soar into the sky. In this way, all the hearts that want revenge are twisted into a hemp rope, and its power is enough to destroy the world.
Therefore, subordinates who want a piece of the pie, avengers who bear the burden of humiliation, defenders of justice who claim to be righteous, and disruptors sent by other groups will flock to them and attach themselves to this undercurrent of interest chain.
The identities of hunter and prey change in an instant.Totally unknown mind, totally unknown abilities.It condensed into a blade of Damoris, hanging high above the heads of every sweeper.
This requires the sweeper to reduce the number of people in the chain as much as possible.
But this is contrary to the conditions of becoming a monopoly, because every time a brand new planet is pulled into the ten-dimensional convention, all sweeper groups will start a race, without coordinates or information.
They need to outrun everyone under such barren conditions, get rid of other sweepers, and monopolize this sweet fruit.Therefore, information warfare is an essential part.
And how to solve this pair of contradictions is the biggest dilemma faced by the sweepers.
And Yang Feifei gave a solution, which she thinks is generally used by sweepers.
Use the nets of other forces to serve the sweepers.To put it simply, the sweeper is the identity of some people hidden under the mask, and what they show to everyone is another face.This face must have a high weight and can dispatch quite a lot of resources.
Especially information resources.
For example, the only dating and chat platform of the Ten-Dimensional Convention: Crescent Moon and Sailing Boat, the forces behind it can do this.Yuzhou guessed silently.
Finally, Yang Feifei used the law of the dark forest to briefly explain the situation of the sweepers.
They are hunters in the night, but once they leave their tracks, they become the prey of others.
Yuzhou silently pondered this long period of speculation.What kind of mood did Yang Feifei leave behind this conjecture in the inevitable situation?
She must be the one who wants to see the notes. Yuzhou's nose was sour, and he corrected this sentence in his heart. He hoped that Han Jiuli, who had seen the notes, could break through the fog with the help of notes and videos, and find the three A demon hiding behind a mask.
Then say something to them: Sweepers, humans have come to ask you for an old debt!
Yuzhou squeezed the two words in blood in his heart like a pilgrimage.
"Don't be afraid."
Han Jiuli's voice and smile flashed, Yuzhou gritted his teeth and swore inwardly:
Brother, sister-in-law, leave this matter to me. Although I don't have such great ambitions, I can't afford the rise and fall of all mankind. Although I only want to avenge you, but this sentence, I must,
Will definitely bring it!
With such conviction, Yuzhou turned to the next page in his notes.
And on the last page, there was only a paragraph that sent chills down Yuzhou's spine:
Don’t be careless, because the information between the various sweeper groups is not connected with each other, so the earth may soon usher in the second batch of guests and undergo a second sweep.
Yuzhou's heart trembled. Although there is absolutely no one person living on the earth now, don't forget that there are nearly 20 people living in various copies of the Ten-Dimensional Convention, and they will always come back.
And these 16 billion people are the last hope of the earth. If disaster strikes again, Yuzhou can't imagine where the way out for mankind is.
"What's the matter, your face suddenly looks so ugly?" Xiao Hechou and the crying Fan Yinyin walked over.His intuition told him that Yuzhou saw something extraordinary.
Yuzhou didn't say much, and handed him the note.
Xiao Hechou also became more and more frightened, "Let's spread the news quickly. The research institute has its own independent communication system, and it should still work now."
"En." Yuzhou nodded, although he knew in his heart that the technological level of the two sides was too far apart, and doing so would not save anyone.
But some things are just like this. Even though they know that they have little effect, they still have to fly to the flames.
Under the leadership of Xiao Hechou, several people quickly found the dean's office, and the dean of the branch, Mu Huaizhen, also collapsed in the lecture hall, so there was no one in this simple and spacious room at this time.
Only the computer screen was still shining brightly. On the screen were real-time images sent back from hundreds of monitors around city b. Yuzhou clicked on the split screens one by one.At this time, City B, which was selected as the dungeon site, was surrounded by thick white fog as usual, and there was nothing unusual about it.
Yuzhou stepped forward, moved the video time forward by 4 hours, and found that when the terrible red light came into contact with the white mist, it instantly shifted direction and left in despair.
When the outside crowd fell one after another in the freshening up of bad luck, City B remained calm as before.
"Who would have thought that the dungeon that humans hate and fear the most, has preserved the last spark for us." Xiao He said melancholy.
Yuzhou also said with emotion: "Disasters come with blessings, and blessings come with misfortunes."
"But the white mist has not dissipated, so who can tell what happened to the people inside?" Fan Yinyin said pessimistically, "Perhaps they have only bones left."
The three were silent, and after a while, Yuzhou said: "Okay, no nonsense, we have to hurry."
He removed the surveillance frame and looked for a way to communicate with the outside world.
At this moment, Xiao Hechou said like a raving voice: "Perhaps, no need."
Yuzhou turned his head and looked towards the place where he was looking, only to see in the sky, a dark fortress in the sky cut through the last ray of light of the day, descending from the sky above the city.
Yang Feifei's guess turned out to be a prophecy!
At this time, Yuzhou and Xiao Hechou were haunted by an inexplicable sadness.
When did the earth become the back garden of those robbers, who could be bullied but unable to resist.
"Fortunately, it hasn't been long since the last time." Xiao Hechou held the baby in one hand, and leaned on the window frame with the other. The evening wind blew up his silvery white hair, blowing on his frowning face, "Back There shouldn’t be many people on Earth.”
"That's the only way I can think of it." After Yuzhou sent the message, he replied feebly.
In the sky, after the pitch-black fortress pulled its entire body out of the sunset, it quietly stopped in the sky without making any further moves.
Xiao Hechou's heart beat like a drum: "It won't be waiting for the player's return, will it?"
Yuzhou slammed his fist on the window sill, and his expression was also very gloomy, "Is this going to kill them all!"
"No, we are members of the Universal Mutual Aid and Rescue Association." A funny voice fell from the sky, and then a weird creature landed on the windowsill.
He looks like a Christmas hat, with a red robe wrapped around his conical body, and a sunflower-like face grows from the tip of the hat, but the sequence of facial features on that face is very different from that of humans. No nose and no eyebrows, the only eye grows on the right side of the face, while the mouth is open above, and it is talking as it opens and closes.
I am afraid that only the Echinodermata can evolve such a weird appearance.This sentence came to Yuzhou's mind somehow.
Xiao Hechou: "The universe helps each other..."
"Mutual Aid and Rescue Association." The Christmas hat moved forward a few steps. He has no legs, and his body is covered with a row of wriggling tumors. He walks like a snail. "Hello, my name is Aoi. I'm sorry. late."
"What do you mean?" Yuzhou asked.
"Whenever a new planet joins the convention, when we get the news, we will set up a domain ring in the past to protect the original planet from being slaughtered." Aoi explained,
"This time, the information on the original planet was submitted 10 days ago, but our internal system just happened to have some problems, and the deputy minister who coordinated the intelligence happened to fall ill, so this information was suppressed. , it was not sent to the hands of the seven adults. So..."
When Aoi said this, she seemed very remorseful, and her head drooped, "Anyway, I'm very sorry."
"It's not your fault." Xiao Hechou was a little sad, but he knew that the other party was definitely not to blame for this matter.
"Thank you for your understanding." Aoi whispered, and soon he regained his vitality, "Although the losses in the past are irreparable, we still have a future. Don't worry, Yuhuan will leave after Mr. Erdes' inspection It will be established. It will exist for 1 year, during which time you will not be harmed again."
"Yuhuan..." Xiao Hechou heard this word many times, but still didn't understand what it meant.Could it be that it can protect the human beings in it just like the cessation membrane?
Aoi seemed to see his doubts, and smiled like sunshine: "No, the domain ring is a kind of induction ring. If a large area of living things dies, it will touch the induction string of the ring, and the mark will be placed on the killing area. on the body of the victim. When the time comes..."
"Hey," Aoi said, shaking her head excitedly, "Mirror Erdes, the Mirror of Annihilation, will personally take action and hunt them down."
"Edes the mirror of annihilation..." Xiao Hechou and Fan Yinyin looked confused.
But Yuzhou stood aside, neither speaking nor asking, wondering what he was thinking.
Aoi's bright smile withered in an instant. He lowered his head and pursed his mouth and said, "I forgot that you are just newbies, and you don't know the name of Mr. Erdes, he is..."
Speaking of this, Aoi became excited again: "He is the second in the Sharaville Arena, and has been a super super super super super master for nearly 10 years! With his domain ring standing here, no one would dare Start here."
Aoi shared 4 super, as if this can show the strength of Erdes.
Fan Yinyin had never heard of the name of the Sky Arena, and always felt that it was the same as the equipment rankings of some counterfeit online games, which was somehow low.
At this time, she was still indulging in the grief of her brother's death, and she suddenly learned that he could have been saved, but lost his life due to some minor problems, and she was even more unhappy: "Second, it's not the first, it's so ridiculous." It's like being invincible."
"You, you..." Aoi's cheeks flushed suddenly, "What do you know, the top few big figures have revealed that they have never been ranked first in the arena, maybe he It simply doesn't exist."
Fan Yinyin wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Yuzhou: "Is that blue-skinned man you are talking about Lord Erdes?"
Yuzhou remembered the mural in the first copy. The second man at the top had blue skin. His body was the same as that of a human, but there was a blooming flower at the heart.
"Master Erdos's skin is not blue, but transparent blue." Aoi corrected.
Yuzhou nodded, he was not interested in what Erdes looked like, he just wanted to confirm the identity of the other party.
After getting an affirmative answer, he asked the question he cared most about: "What price do you need us to pay for helping us in this way?"
Xiao Hechou couldn't help pricking up his ears, wanting to know what is the price behind this help?
Kui was angry at Yuzhou's underestimation: "It is a mutual aid association, which is naturally a public welfare nature. Our association is composed of righteous people who yearn for order. Abandoners get safe food and lodging, and hunt sweepers, marauders, lickers."
"Sweepers, looters, lickers, and abandoners, what are these?" Fan Yinyin asked.
At the same time, Yuzhou asked a completely different question: "The nature of public welfare, where do you get the funds for your activities? Do you collect donations? Or pay for it yourself?"
He didn't believe that in this cannibalistic world, there would be bad people.
Xiao Hechou opened his mouth, but couldn't think of anything to ask, so he closed it again.
Aoi looked at this and that, until his eyes turned into circles of mosquito coils, he said, "Let me answer one by one.
"Abandoned people are people who have been abandoned by the convention. They either voluntarily abstained during the novice period, or were not selected by the convention for some reason. In short, they are non-players in the popular sense.
"Sweeper, you have all seen it, that is, the group of dregs who carried out brutal massacres in order to obtain high gold dust when the new civilization was drawn into the pact and had not yet been strengthened.
"Plunderers are pests who occupy a spot to ambush and kill passers-by. Most of them are in groups of three or four, shooting one shot for another. Sometimes they spread false news about treasures to attract innocent people to come.
"As for the lickers, they are some dirty flies. As you know, every intelligent species has the possibility of giving out a gold card after death, regardless of whether he is a player or not. And these lickers themselves have no ability to fight against them. Players, it’s really abominable to specifically look for those abandoned people and slaughter those who have no power to restrain them.”
Aoi jumped up and stomped her feet a few times as she spoke, venting the anger in her heart, although it looked like she was dancing.
Seeing his blushing, Xiao Hechou poured him a glass of water from the water dispenser.
"Thank you." There was a blush of embarrassment on Kui's face, he opened Yin Tao's small mouth, three layers of jagged teeth were turned out, and finally a long mouthpart ejected from the throat, stabbing into the water.
I thought it was a sunflower, but I didn't expect it to be a mosquito. Fan Yinyin looked a little terrified.
After Kui gulped down half a glass of water, he looked at Yuzhou contentedly, "As for what you said..."
He smiled triumphantly, "We neither need to collect donations nor pay out of our own pockets. Let me tell you, we have 23 affiliated planets under the name of the Cosmic Mutual Aid and Rescue Association, which accommodate abandoned people from various races. At the same time, we have more than 100 planets. A chain of industries, with Huanyu Heavy Industry as the core, the suspended mechanical city, sky fortress, and spaceship manufactured there are even more famous in the universe, and they are undoubtedly No. 1 in terms of technology and appearance."
"So, you take in the abandoned people, and then exploit them and let them work for you?" Yuzhou finally understood. Isn't this the way of capitalism?
"You, you, you!!" Aoi took three steps back, her face flushed with anger, and she almost fainted.It was Xiao Hechou who helped him smooth the air, and he came back, "It's not like this, we are different from other black-hearted companies, although we hire abandoned people to work, it is also for their better survival.
"I swear, we never exploit them, they only work 10 hours a day, eat three different meals a day, and have vacations on weekends, besides, there are old and young people, we will not refuse We will try our best to help those who are unable to work outside the gate, even if they cannot create benefits.
"There is no more humane organization than our association in the entire universe. Our headquarters is on the main planet. If you ask anyone, everyone who knows our name will give a thumbs up.
"If you still don't believe me, you can go to our affiliated star to see for yourself. Of course, part of the sightseeing fee will be charged."
"Is this considered humane!?" Fan Yinyin snorted coldly after hearing this.
Aoi's expression changed when she yelled at her, and she shed tears of grievance.
Yuzhou also lowered his face, and said to Fan Yinyin, "Go to the lecture hall and make a copy of that video. Since the Association is hunting and killing the sweepers, that video may provide some clues."
Yu Zhou's tone of voice was very calm, but those who knew him well could see the anger in his heart at a glance.
For example, Xiao Hechou, he squeezed Zhou's hand, then turned his head and said to Fan Yinyin who still wanted to argue, "I'll go with you."
The gloom in Fan Yinyin's heart disappeared immediately, and she followed Xiao Hechou and left step by step.
Seeing the others leave, Yuzhou squeezed out a smile, "Don't mind, she just lost her brother, and she's not in a good mood. I'm the same, I said some serious things just now, so don't take it to heart."
What Yuzhou said was not to please her deliberately, but he understood the real purpose of Kui hidden in the long speech.Just as Yuzhou thought at the beginning, there is no free lunch in this world, and their help must come at a price.
They're here to recruit.Although there are only ten human beings now, when the players return, when some players have to choose to withdraw from the convention due to the threat of death, a group of abandoned people will gather again on the earth, and the Mutual Aid and Rescue Association is here to win over these people .
To be honest, the conditions given by Aoi are indeed not favorable on weekdays, but under this background, in this doomsday catastrophe, for the precarious deserters, it is possible to have a job and a dignified life , it's not easy.
Yuzhou could imagine the scene of those black-hearted workshops raising abandoned people and handling them like livestock.The world seems to have slipped back into a society of slavery, and sadly, the Outcasts will never be able to overthrow this rule.
Compared with the two, the conditions of the Universal Mutual Aid and Rescue Association can be called excellent.
Of course, the premise is that everything Aoi said is true.
But no matter what, the Rescue Association is a choice, one of the few choices that belong to the abandoned people, and this is why Yuzhou is annoyed, he doesn't want his compatriots to lose this option before they make a choice.
As for the end, which way they chose to go, it was not Yuzhou's business to worry about.
After hearing Yuzhou's words, Kui burst into a smile, "I don't blame her, she is a poor person.
"You are a good person. If you have a relative who withdraws from the convention, you can entrust him in the association, and you can visit him at will for only 10 dust per month, without paying additional sightseeing fees.
"Of course, if you want, you are also welcome to join our team. We have various garrison missions, hunting missions, exploration missions, reception missions and so on.
"I suggest you choose the garrison mission. Its mission duration is only one week, and the content is to garrison the satellite where the abandoned people stay. In this way, you can spend one to two weeks a year to accompany your loved ones.
"Of course, all tasks are optional. After completion, there will be dust or card rewards, and you can also increase the points in the club. When the points increase to a certain level, you can obtain the corresponding position after inspection."
Yuzhou's heart suddenly became heavy when he heard those two words: "I have no relatives."
"Yes, I'm sorry." Aoi's eyes burst into tears again.Its body kept leaning back, then bent forward, and bowed several times at 180°.
"It's okay." Yuzhou said, and then he added hypnotically, "It's okay, everything is over."
Aoi was forgiven, and smiled again: "Join us, our members are all sons who lost their fathers, younger brothers who lost their elder brothers, and husbands who lost their lovers.
There, we are each other's relatives. "
"Aoi." At this moment, a voice sounded from the round pendant on his chest.
"Ah, Lord Erdes." Aoi hurriedly opened the short-distance space door.Soon, a majestic
Yuzhou spread out his palm, gently stroked the two crooked words on it, his courage seemed to come back, and he said: "No, I believe that there is no predestined fate, it only gives the greatest possibility, but the future Exactly how it is depends on people to come out step by step.”
Xiao Hechou was a little surprised, but then she pursed her lips slightly, "It's really good of you to think so."
The sound of the conversation between the two quickly reached Fan Yinyin's ears. She raised her head and looked at the colorless sky.
Then her tears gushed out again, she put down the body of her brother who had guarded her all her life, and rushed into Xiao Hechou's arms, crying heartbreakingly, as if she wanted to pour out all her confusion and pain.
"Hey." Xiao Hechou patted Fan Yinyin's back lightly, and embraced her silently.
"Why don't you stay with him first, and I'll come back when I find my sister-in-law?" Seeing that Fan Yinyin was crying endlessly and the sky was getting dark, Yuzhou said.
"No, no, no, where are you going? I'll go with you." Fan Yinyin wiped away her tears, holding on to Xiao Hechou's sleeve, afraid that if she let go, the person in front of her would fly away.
Xiao Hechou looked at Yuzhou and asked with his eyes: What do you think?
Yuzhou nodded. He sailed the boat so low that he came to find survivors.
The ship set sail again, and Fan Yinyin was arranged in the back seat to take care of the baby.It's just that she was only in her early 20s and had little experience. After a while of fuss, she didn't put the child to sleep, but made him cry.
"I'll do it." In the end, Xiao Hechou took the job.
"I'm sorry, I can't help you with anything." Fan Yinyin's tears fell down again.
. . .
As the sun set, the clouds in the sky dyed the sky and the earth golden red.Everything froze in its arms, like sleeping in the heaven of death.
A few people from Yuzhou soon came to the branch of the United Laboratory in the suburbs of City B. He broke into the laboratory with violence and quickly invaded the laboratory, finding Yang Feifei.
He didn't spend much effort, because the entire experimental institute gathered together in that spacious lecture hall.
The corpses of more than 40 researchers fell in their respective positions, holding black gel pens in their hands, and a notebook in front of them, and they did not know what they were writing down.
Yuzhou walked up to Yang Feifei. She was wearing a white and green floral dress with a white coat over it. The corners of the thin skirt were fluttering back and forth with the wind blowing from the window.And she herself was lying quietly on the table, falling into a deep sleep.
Yuzhou tidied up her wind-blown hair to cover up the hideous scar.
Only then did she take the pen holder from her hand, flatten her body, put it into a blank card, and put it together with Han Jiuli's body.
After doing all this, he picked up the notebook in Yang Feifei's hand.
I saw that it said:
1. The internal structure of the hull is very strange, like the internal structure of some kind of creature, but it is not a shark, not even an aquatic creature.
2. The man on the left belongs to a certain mysterious religion, and his status is not low. The prayer action of this religion is to make a fist with his right hand, stick his index finger close to the center of his eyebrows, and bow his head to silently recite the slogan.
3. The man on the right did not hide his identity. He is the owner of the "Robber", code-named no1.
. . .
When Yuzhou saw this, his doubts became more and more intense. It didn't seem to have anything to do with scientific research, but it seemed to be recording a certain video.Why, why did the sister-in-law record this before she died?
His eyes glanced around, and quickly locked on to the projector directly in front of him. The projection screen was black, marking the end of a certain video.
Yuzhou went up and turned on the video again.
On the screen, in the deep and dark starry sky, an inconspicuous space station was swaying towards the atmosphere. When it was 5000 meters above the ground, a fist-sized Rubik's cube fell off and fell rapidly towards the "Looting" directly below it.
Yuzhou immediately understood what the video was going to show next. He turned his head, and the moment his eyes came into contact with Xiao Hechou, the other party stood up consciously and walked to the end of the lecture hall, 15 miles away from him.
Yuzhou nodded to Xiao Hechou, and soon returned to the video itself. He picked up Yang Feifei's notes and watched while comparing them.
In the video, when the Rubik's Cube touched the surface of the bubble, it was not isolated like many missiles and nuclear bombs. It was very quiet and quietly blended into the bubble without being noticed by anyone.
After passing through this layer of barriers, the journey of the Rubik's Cube did not stop here. It fell to the top of the Raider, and then crossed the hull like passing through a bubble.
Yuzhou squinted his eyes, there was no space to teleport, and there was no tearing hole, the Rubik's Cube just passed through the reinforced iron frame slowly, how did it do it?
After the Rubik's Cube fell into the hull, it quickly disintegrated into 10 pieces, and then flew in all directions. They saw walls pass through walls and doors pass through doors, and quickly disappeared from sight.
And the screen continued to move forward with a piece of red disintegrated body, looking for the main control room all the way.
What I saw and heard on the way, as Yang Feifei said in his notes, the internal structure of the "Looter" should be built to imitate some kind of creature. Each cabin is an organ, and there are faintly pulsating blood vessels on the ship's walls.
But it should not be a shark. It has no gill slits, let alone gills. Its intestines are extremely thick and long, coiled and coiled like a spring, which is very different from sharks with short intestines.
In addition to the heart, liver, spleen and stomach, there are more than 20 unknown organs in the body, but except for the mouth and intestines, there are no other organs connected to the outside world.
Cloaca?No no no, it has no genitals at all.
Maybe it's asexual reproduction, maybe it has some kind of reproduction that doesn't exist on earth.
Yuzhou kept this doubt in his heart, and stopped thinking about it. He followed the camera all the way and entered the main control room - the heart of the mysterious creature.
There, in the place where six billion lives were taken, stood three beings, two ordinary human males and a demon.
The devil is a real devil, its bloated body is like a gourd, with stinky pus flowing all year round.The organs are arranged in no order, and 15 eyes tear the skin and protrude from all corners of the body.Whereas the head should have eyes, there is an abyss gap that runs through the top of the head and the chin.
Except for the demons, the remaining two are not real humans.
That's skin.
Yuzhou recognized it for a while, and replayed a certain passage repeatedly, before he recognized the patterns on the arms of the two. It was the logo of a certain skin company, and there was a serial number of the skin on it.
It's a pity that he heard from Jieshu that the products produced by this company are all street stalls, 100 pieces for 3 dust, which are sold in all streets and alleys, so it is difficult to locate buyers through skin.
The screen continues to jump.
The man on the left and the demon on the right are chatting in low voices about a delicacy-Sollund blood sausage.
The devil on the right said that he likes the dipping sauce, and only a delicacy of the level of Solund blood sausage can match the specialty of the White Fairway-yusheng sauce.
And the man on the left said with a strange look that only heretics would enjoy food like this, and it should be put in the oven to be baked with Bona shortcake and waxed giant wing duck legs.
The man in the middle remained silent.
Seeing this, the person on the left put his shoulders on his shoulders: "What's the matter, I've been staring at the screen, what's so interesting about this primitive society?"
The corner of the mouth of the person in the middle twitched, and he broke his shoulders away from the opponent's hand without any trace: "It's nothing."
"There may be another mystery here." The voice of the demon on the right was as cold as iron, and it was as cold as a living person.
The person on the left asked about the mystery, but no one answered him.
Yuzhou looked at the time marked at the bottom of the video. Calculated, it happened to be the time when the bubbles began to collapse. Unconsciously.
Sure enough, not long after, the man in the middle spoke. His voice was electronically synthesized, with a kind of superior majesty: "Stop joking, 23, there seems to be something wrong with the cessation membrane."
The demon's head was split on both sides, and the thick and long tongue licked the gap between the teeth: "Something went wrong, how could it be possible, the energy is very stable, and the band scanner didn't find any intrusion of objects."
23. It seems that the man on the right is the sweeper no23.Yuzhou thought.
Just after no23 finished saying this sentence, the behemoth floating in the air suddenly jolted violently.
no23's eyes became sharp instantly, he withdrew his casual attitude, six completely different hands danced back and forth on hundreds of touch screens and buttons,
"Something really came in, but I couldn't find it."
Demon no23 flashed the surveillance videos of more than 10 cabins in front of his eyes, but found nothing abnormal.The self-inspection system was turned on, countless irregular numbers jumped on the screen, and fine beads of sweat gradually oozed from his forehead.
"Perhaps, you need God's help." The man on the left suggested, his expression was very calm, not like joking.
After speaking, he made a strange movement, which was exactly the prayer movement Yang Feifei described in his notes.
Devil no23 didn't express his opinion, but the man in the middle walked up to the screen, pointed to a certain place on the light screen, "Here."
The devil no23 also noticed the strangeness, pointing fingers, and found a piece of Rubik's Cube cleavage in the fast-moving light screen information.
It is surrounding the power source of the spaceship, the energy port of the stop membrane, making a certain regular circular motion.
And with its movement, the smooth reaction chain was disrupted, and there was a sign of loss of control.
"What is this?" The man on the left frowned.
The man in the middle didn't speak, and he didn't seem to understand what it was.
"Crankshaft Rubik's Cube." The devil no23 opened his mouth at this time, he seemed a little surprised, his frightening mouth opened even wider, "This card only appeared in the pass draw of the Lixingo ruins, why did it just appear?" Planets that join the convention will have this card?"
"What? The ruins of Lixingo." The man on the left forgot to pray, "That's a dungeon with a difficulty of sss."
The man standing in the middle was also breathless: "Could it be that there is someone behind them?"
After a while,
The man on the left regained his composure. He stretched out his right index finger, put it between his eyebrows, said a prayer silently, and then said: "No4 Don't be nervous, the omnipotent God, the Lord of all things, is on our side. "
"Do you have a solution?" No4 in the middle ignored him and turned to ask no23.
Devil no23 was silent for a moment: "Of course, no one is more familiar with it than me."
After that, the screen flickered for a while, then quickly dimmed, and nothing could be seen.
Yuzhou knew that the crankshaft Rubik's Cube had been solved.
From this video, he learned some things. First of all, these three people may not be familiar with each other. Except for the devil, the other two used skin and synthetic electronic sounds, which shows that they do not trust each other.
This is an agglomeration driven only by profit.
Secondly, this looting ship should belong to no23, and the remaining two people probably don't know anything about manipulating spaceships.
In the end, Yuzhou took out the card ["Li"] in the ruins of Lixinge.
Crankshaft Rubik's Cube, a card that should not appear here, why did it appear, and who left it on the earth?And since that person chose to keep the card, does it mean that he has a good attitude towards human beings?
Judging by the apprehensive appearance of no4, it seems that everyone who cleared the Lixinge ruins is the best of the best.
Then can I find that master, ask him to take action, and kill these three people.
"Now, the primary goal is to find out the identities of those three people." Yuzhou flipped through Yang Feifei's notes, which listed many details that he hadn't noticed, most of which were to analyze the behavior patterns and handling details of these three people.Yuzhou nodded frequently after seeing it.
Among them, Yang Feifei mentioned a point of view, collectivization and concealment.
Collectivization:
Because of the unimaginable profits, there should be strong internal competition in the sweeper industry.At the same time, because of the cruel methods and the anger of the sky and the people, they will surely suffer from powerful external suppression.
Therefore, in mutual killings and external attacks, some people unite and some people are expelled, and finally a few stable monopoly groups will be formed.
And these reorganized sweepers are not individuals. Behind them, there must be a complete industrial chain.
The chain includes obtaining information on the newly promoted dungeons (planets that have newly joined the convention), investigating the strength and technological level of intelligent species in the newly promoted dungeons, the technology of entering unknown star fields without planetary codes, and erasing their own whereabouts. The ability to fight against remaining forces, etc.
Secondly, she brought up the concept of concealment.
Sweepers are hunters, but they must keep their tails between their legs and not reveal their true identities.
Because the ten-dimensional convention provides an extremely open and uncertain environment.In this environment, the ants at the bottom can soar into the sky and become the eagles ruling the sky, and the lions galloping in the forest may also be blinded by birds.
Everyone in this profit chain is extremely vicious, and everyone wants to tear a piece of meat from the sweepers at the top of the food chain, such as Shanfeng and Water Ghost.Moreover, they do have the strength to snatch food from the mouth of a tiger, and even have the opportunity to replace it.
In addition, the massacre of the clan was very vengeful.Among the surviving survivors, there are always a few who can soar into the sky. In this way, all the hearts that want revenge are twisted into a hemp rope, and its power is enough to destroy the world.
Therefore, subordinates who want a piece of the pie, avengers who bear the burden of humiliation, defenders of justice who claim to be righteous, and disruptors sent by other groups will flock to them and attach themselves to this undercurrent of interest chain.
The identities of hunter and prey change in an instant.Totally unknown mind, totally unknown abilities.It condensed into a blade of Damoris, hanging high above the heads of every sweeper.
This requires the sweeper to reduce the number of people in the chain as much as possible.
But this is contrary to the conditions of becoming a monopoly, because every time a brand new planet is pulled into the ten-dimensional convention, all sweeper groups will start a race, without coordinates or information.
They need to outrun everyone under such barren conditions, get rid of other sweepers, and monopolize this sweet fruit.Therefore, information warfare is an essential part.
And how to solve this pair of contradictions is the biggest dilemma faced by the sweepers.
And Yang Feifei gave a solution, which she thinks is generally used by sweepers.
Use the nets of other forces to serve the sweepers.To put it simply, the sweeper is the identity of some people hidden under the mask, and what they show to everyone is another face.This face must have a high weight and can dispatch quite a lot of resources.
Especially information resources.
For example, the only dating and chat platform of the Ten-Dimensional Convention: Crescent Moon and Sailing Boat, the forces behind it can do this.Yuzhou guessed silently.
Finally, Yang Feifei used the law of the dark forest to briefly explain the situation of the sweepers.
They are hunters in the night, but once they leave their tracks, they become the prey of others.
Yuzhou silently pondered this long period of speculation.What kind of mood did Yang Feifei leave behind this conjecture in the inevitable situation?
She must be the one who wants to see the notes. Yuzhou's nose was sour, and he corrected this sentence in his heart. He hoped that Han Jiuli, who had seen the notes, could break through the fog with the help of notes and videos, and find the three A demon hiding behind a mask.
Then say something to them: Sweepers, humans have come to ask you for an old debt!
Yuzhou squeezed the two words in blood in his heart like a pilgrimage.
"Don't be afraid."
Han Jiuli's voice and smile flashed, Yuzhou gritted his teeth and swore inwardly:
Brother, sister-in-law, leave this matter to me. Although I don't have such great ambitions, I can't afford the rise and fall of all mankind. Although I only want to avenge you, but this sentence, I must,
Will definitely bring it!
With such conviction, Yuzhou turned to the next page in his notes.
And on the last page, there was only a paragraph that sent chills down Yuzhou's spine:
Don’t be careless, because the information between the various sweeper groups is not connected with each other, so the earth may soon usher in the second batch of guests and undergo a second sweep.
Yuzhou's heart trembled. Although there is absolutely no one person living on the earth now, don't forget that there are nearly 20 people living in various copies of the Ten-Dimensional Convention, and they will always come back.
And these 16 billion people are the last hope of the earth. If disaster strikes again, Yuzhou can't imagine where the way out for mankind is.
"What's the matter, your face suddenly looks so ugly?" Xiao Hechou and the crying Fan Yinyin walked over.His intuition told him that Yuzhou saw something extraordinary.
Yuzhou didn't say much, and handed him the note.
Xiao Hechou also became more and more frightened, "Let's spread the news quickly. The research institute has its own independent communication system, and it should still work now."
"En." Yuzhou nodded, although he knew in his heart that the technological level of the two sides was too far apart, and doing so would not save anyone.
But some things are just like this. Even though they know that they have little effect, they still have to fly to the flames.
Under the leadership of Xiao Hechou, several people quickly found the dean's office, and the dean of the branch, Mu Huaizhen, also collapsed in the lecture hall, so there was no one in this simple and spacious room at this time.
Only the computer screen was still shining brightly. On the screen were real-time images sent back from hundreds of monitors around city b. Yuzhou clicked on the split screens one by one.At this time, City B, which was selected as the dungeon site, was surrounded by thick white fog as usual, and there was nothing unusual about it.
Yuzhou stepped forward, moved the video time forward by 4 hours, and found that when the terrible red light came into contact with the white mist, it instantly shifted direction and left in despair.
When the outside crowd fell one after another in the freshening up of bad luck, City B remained calm as before.
"Who would have thought that the dungeon that humans hate and fear the most, has preserved the last spark for us." Xiao He said melancholy.
Yuzhou also said with emotion: "Disasters come with blessings, and blessings come with misfortunes."
"But the white mist has not dissipated, so who can tell what happened to the people inside?" Fan Yinyin said pessimistically, "Perhaps they have only bones left."
The three were silent, and after a while, Yuzhou said: "Okay, no nonsense, we have to hurry."
He removed the surveillance frame and looked for a way to communicate with the outside world.
At this moment, Xiao Hechou said like a raving voice: "Perhaps, no need."
Yuzhou turned his head and looked towards the place where he was looking, only to see in the sky, a dark fortress in the sky cut through the last ray of light of the day, descending from the sky above the city.
Yang Feifei's guess turned out to be a prophecy!
At this time, Yuzhou and Xiao Hechou were haunted by an inexplicable sadness.
When did the earth become the back garden of those robbers, who could be bullied but unable to resist.
"Fortunately, it hasn't been long since the last time." Xiao Hechou held the baby in one hand, and leaned on the window frame with the other. The evening wind blew up his silvery white hair, blowing on his frowning face, "Back There shouldn’t be many people on Earth.”
"That's the only way I can think of it." After Yuzhou sent the message, he replied feebly.
In the sky, after the pitch-black fortress pulled its entire body out of the sunset, it quietly stopped in the sky without making any further moves.
Xiao Hechou's heart beat like a drum: "It won't be waiting for the player's return, will it?"
Yuzhou slammed his fist on the window sill, and his expression was also very gloomy, "Is this going to kill them all!"
"No, we are members of the Universal Mutual Aid and Rescue Association." A funny voice fell from the sky, and then a weird creature landed on the windowsill.
He looks like a Christmas hat, with a red robe wrapped around his conical body, and a sunflower-like face grows from the tip of the hat, but the sequence of facial features on that face is very different from that of humans. No nose and no eyebrows, the only eye grows on the right side of the face, while the mouth is open above, and it is talking as it opens and closes.
I am afraid that only the Echinodermata can evolve such a weird appearance.This sentence came to Yuzhou's mind somehow.
Xiao Hechou: "The universe helps each other..."
"Mutual Aid and Rescue Association." The Christmas hat moved forward a few steps. He has no legs, and his body is covered with a row of wriggling tumors. He walks like a snail. "Hello, my name is Aoi. I'm sorry. late."
"What do you mean?" Yuzhou asked.
"Whenever a new planet joins the convention, when we get the news, we will set up a domain ring in the past to protect the original planet from being slaughtered." Aoi explained,
"This time, the information on the original planet was submitted 10 days ago, but our internal system just happened to have some problems, and the deputy minister who coordinated the intelligence happened to fall ill, so this information was suppressed. , it was not sent to the hands of the seven adults. So..."
When Aoi said this, she seemed very remorseful, and her head drooped, "Anyway, I'm very sorry."
"It's not your fault." Xiao Hechou was a little sad, but he knew that the other party was definitely not to blame for this matter.
"Thank you for your understanding." Aoi whispered, and soon he regained his vitality, "Although the losses in the past are irreparable, we still have a future. Don't worry, Yuhuan will leave after Mr. Erdes' inspection It will be established. It will exist for 1 year, during which time you will not be harmed again."
"Yuhuan..." Xiao Hechou heard this word many times, but still didn't understand what it meant.Could it be that it can protect the human beings in it just like the cessation membrane?
Aoi seemed to see his doubts, and smiled like sunshine: "No, the domain ring is a kind of induction ring. If a large area of living things dies, it will touch the induction string of the ring, and the mark will be placed on the killing area. on the body of the victim. When the time comes..."
"Hey," Aoi said, shaking her head excitedly, "Mirror Erdes, the Mirror of Annihilation, will personally take action and hunt them down."
"Edes the mirror of annihilation..." Xiao Hechou and Fan Yinyin looked confused.
But Yuzhou stood aside, neither speaking nor asking, wondering what he was thinking.
Aoi's bright smile withered in an instant. He lowered his head and pursed his mouth and said, "I forgot that you are just newbies, and you don't know the name of Mr. Erdes, he is..."
Speaking of this, Aoi became excited again: "He is the second in the Sharaville Arena, and has been a super super super super super master for nearly 10 years! With his domain ring standing here, no one would dare Start here."
Aoi shared 4 super, as if this can show the strength of Erdes.
Fan Yinyin had never heard of the name of the Sky Arena, and always felt that it was the same as the equipment rankings of some counterfeit online games, which was somehow low.
At this time, she was still indulging in the grief of her brother's death, and she suddenly learned that he could have been saved, but lost his life due to some minor problems, and she was even more unhappy: "Second, it's not the first, it's so ridiculous." It's like being invincible."
"You, you..." Aoi's cheeks flushed suddenly, "What do you know, the top few big figures have revealed that they have never been ranked first in the arena, maybe he It simply doesn't exist."
Fan Yinyin wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Yuzhou: "Is that blue-skinned man you are talking about Lord Erdes?"
Yuzhou remembered the mural in the first copy. The second man at the top had blue skin. His body was the same as that of a human, but there was a blooming flower at the heart.
"Master Erdos's skin is not blue, but transparent blue." Aoi corrected.
Yuzhou nodded, he was not interested in what Erdes looked like, he just wanted to confirm the identity of the other party.
After getting an affirmative answer, he asked the question he cared most about: "What price do you need us to pay for helping us in this way?"
Xiao Hechou couldn't help pricking up his ears, wanting to know what is the price behind this help?
Kui was angry at Yuzhou's underestimation: "It is a mutual aid association, which is naturally a public welfare nature. Our association is composed of righteous people who yearn for order. Abandoners get safe food and lodging, and hunt sweepers, marauders, lickers."
"Sweepers, looters, lickers, and abandoners, what are these?" Fan Yinyin asked.
At the same time, Yuzhou asked a completely different question: "The nature of public welfare, where do you get the funds for your activities? Do you collect donations? Or pay for it yourself?"
He didn't believe that in this cannibalistic world, there would be bad people.
Xiao Hechou opened his mouth, but couldn't think of anything to ask, so he closed it again.
Aoi looked at this and that, until his eyes turned into circles of mosquito coils, he said, "Let me answer one by one.
"Abandoned people are people who have been abandoned by the convention. They either voluntarily abstained during the novice period, or were not selected by the convention for some reason. In short, they are non-players in the popular sense.
"Sweeper, you have all seen it, that is, the group of dregs who carried out brutal massacres in order to obtain high gold dust when the new civilization was drawn into the pact and had not yet been strengthened.
"Plunderers are pests who occupy a spot to ambush and kill passers-by. Most of them are in groups of three or four, shooting one shot for another. Sometimes they spread false news about treasures to attract innocent people to come.
"As for the lickers, they are some dirty flies. As you know, every intelligent species has the possibility of giving out a gold card after death, regardless of whether he is a player or not. And these lickers themselves have no ability to fight against them. Players, it’s really abominable to specifically look for those abandoned people and slaughter those who have no power to restrain them.”
Aoi jumped up and stomped her feet a few times as she spoke, venting the anger in her heart, although it looked like she was dancing.
Seeing his blushing, Xiao Hechou poured him a glass of water from the water dispenser.
"Thank you." There was a blush of embarrassment on Kui's face, he opened Yin Tao's small mouth, three layers of jagged teeth were turned out, and finally a long mouthpart ejected from the throat, stabbing into the water.
I thought it was a sunflower, but I didn't expect it to be a mosquito. Fan Yinyin looked a little terrified.
After Kui gulped down half a glass of water, he looked at Yuzhou contentedly, "As for what you said..."
He smiled triumphantly, "We neither need to collect donations nor pay out of our own pockets. Let me tell you, we have 23 affiliated planets under the name of the Cosmic Mutual Aid and Rescue Association, which accommodate abandoned people from various races. At the same time, we have more than 100 planets. A chain of industries, with Huanyu Heavy Industry as the core, the suspended mechanical city, sky fortress, and spaceship manufactured there are even more famous in the universe, and they are undoubtedly No. 1 in terms of technology and appearance."
"So, you take in the abandoned people, and then exploit them and let them work for you?" Yuzhou finally understood. Isn't this the way of capitalism?
"You, you, you!!" Aoi took three steps back, her face flushed with anger, and she almost fainted.It was Xiao Hechou who helped him smooth the air, and he came back, "It's not like this, we are different from other black-hearted companies, although we hire abandoned people to work, it is also for their better survival.
"I swear, we never exploit them, they only work 10 hours a day, eat three different meals a day, and have vacations on weekends, besides, there are old and young people, we will not refuse We will try our best to help those who are unable to work outside the gate, even if they cannot create benefits.
"There is no more humane organization than our association in the entire universe. Our headquarters is on the main planet. If you ask anyone, everyone who knows our name will give a thumbs up.
"If you still don't believe me, you can go to our affiliated star to see for yourself. Of course, part of the sightseeing fee will be charged."
"Is this considered humane!?" Fan Yinyin snorted coldly after hearing this.
Aoi's expression changed when she yelled at her, and she shed tears of grievance.
Yuzhou also lowered his face, and said to Fan Yinyin, "Go to the lecture hall and make a copy of that video. Since the Association is hunting and killing the sweepers, that video may provide some clues."
Yu Zhou's tone of voice was very calm, but those who knew him well could see the anger in his heart at a glance.
For example, Xiao Hechou, he squeezed Zhou's hand, then turned his head and said to Fan Yinyin who still wanted to argue, "I'll go with you."
The gloom in Fan Yinyin's heart disappeared immediately, and she followed Xiao Hechou and left step by step.
Seeing the others leave, Yuzhou squeezed out a smile, "Don't mind, she just lost her brother, and she's not in a good mood. I'm the same, I said some serious things just now, so don't take it to heart."
What Yuzhou said was not to please her deliberately, but he understood the real purpose of Kui hidden in the long speech.Just as Yuzhou thought at the beginning, there is no free lunch in this world, and their help must come at a price.
They're here to recruit.Although there are only ten human beings now, when the players return, when some players have to choose to withdraw from the convention due to the threat of death, a group of abandoned people will gather again on the earth, and the Mutual Aid and Rescue Association is here to win over these people .
To be honest, the conditions given by Aoi are indeed not favorable on weekdays, but under this background, in this doomsday catastrophe, for the precarious deserters, it is possible to have a job and a dignified life , it's not easy.
Yuzhou could imagine the scene of those black-hearted workshops raising abandoned people and handling them like livestock.The world seems to have slipped back into a society of slavery, and sadly, the Outcasts will never be able to overthrow this rule.
Compared with the two, the conditions of the Universal Mutual Aid and Rescue Association can be called excellent.
Of course, the premise is that everything Aoi said is true.
