I am the celebration monster of Academy City

But Hamazura Shiage didn't know about this, so after hearing Shikuma Riko's answer, his first reaction was disbelief, and his second reaction was not excitement, but panic.This is something beyond his common sense, which brings a kind of horror like stepping into another world.

"No... not old or dead?"

"That's right, but... it's not like there's no need to pay the price."

The dangerous smile on his face turned into a mockery.Shikuma Riko noticed the panic on Hamazura Shiage's face.

This undoubtedly exposed the essence of Hamazura Shiage, a small person.In the face of such achievements, what is revealed is not ambition but fear.This only shows that his structure is really low enough.This also deepened Zhixiong Science's doubts.

How could such a guy survive?

"Like I said, to achieve that you have to go two steps further. And this kind of immortality will lose most of the concept of being human."

"What?"

"To put it simply, people who want to use this kind of thing to achieve immortality first have to abandon the original human body and replace it all with nano-medical machines. Only use technology or souls to maintain human form. "

Can such a person be considered a human being?Such issues have already touched the field of philosophy, and it would take too much useless space to discuss them.Hamazura Shiage didn't have the quality to think about that kind of problem at all.What he wants to ask most now is.

"Then... what does that have to do with me?"

"First of all, you should already know that the Eden Armor has the concept of relatively eliminating the user's death."

Hamazura Shiage's body trembled slightly... After Shikuma Riko said this, he was able to connect the two things together.

"Could it be...could it be this thing? Could it be that the modification of me by that armor...is this kind of thing?"

"That's right, the Eden armor was not designed for simple human use! And this thing does not impose any restrictions. Once a living body wears this thing, it will be forcibly transformed immediately.

So humans have no way to use it.If you can carry it to the end without dying, then you will change from the concept of relative elimination of death to the concept of absolute elimination of death. "

"Why don't you put away such a dangerous thing!!"

Feeling slightly out of control, Hamazura Shiage couldn't help but growl at Shikuma Riko.

Until now, Hamazura Shiage didn't know how dangerous the Eden Armor was.

It turned out that he wasn't wading into the fire that night at all, but was dancing on the tip of the knife, and if he was not careful, he would die suddenly on the spot!He also finally understood that Shikuma Riko would be so curious and concerned about his survival.

Because, because theoretically...

If he didn't resist, he was already dead!

And it is impossible for him who is still alive to be so healthy, there should be more or less traces of forced transformation in his body.

This is already a technology beyond Hamazura Shiage's comprehension. Using an armor to forcibly transform a human body into a cluster of nanomachines, leaving only one's own consciousness, is such a thing really possible with technology?Or is it actually magic?

"To be precise, I would never have thought that someone would use it. This thing is something that everyone understands in the true sense."

Hamazura Shiage's rant did not make Shikuma Riko angry, but Shikuma Rike's indifferent reply made Hamazura Shiage dumbfounded for a moment...

At that time, he was the one who wanted to forcefully pry open the door with an armor to take it away, but he was the one who rushed to the doctor and stole the thing without prying the door...

"Anyway, it's a good thing that you're still alive. With such a healthy body, there's no need to collect data. Then come with me, and I want to ask you something else."

Standing up from the seat, without waiting for Hamazura Shiage to answer Shikuma Riko, he opened the door and walked in another direction.

Hamazura Shiage, who was left behind, clenched his fists, his expression changed several times, and finally followed Shikuma Riko without disappointment.

Fortunately, Shikuma Science didn't go far, and Hamazura Shiage quickly followed.

Afterwards, Hamazura Shiage followed Shikuma Riko to another laboratory.

What appeared in front of Hamazura Shiage was something both familiar and unfamiliar, but now he was terrified...

Eden Drive...with Eden Yak Upgrade Key.

Both things are covered with cracks.At the end of September 9th, Hamazura Shiage lost consciousness, and when he woke up again, it was already October 30st. These two things turned into this miserable scene and Hamazura Shiage had lost his memory.

And now that this thing appears here, it also means that Zhixiong Science's research institute recovered it in time afterwards.

Now, on the other side of the thick glass window, in addition to the cracked Eden drive and the Eden upgrade key, there is also a drive that looks somewhat similar to the graphics card, and a blank magnetic card.

The two sides are connected by pipes, and what looks like blood flows from one side of the Eden Drive to the other.

"The Kamen Rider series armor is loaded with an authentication system, you should know that. Although the authentication system can be lifted at any time on my side, the situation is a bit special now."

"special?"

"The de-authentication for you has been denied."

"There is still someone who can refuse your request as a developer... Wait, could it be... Aneri?"

In the middle of speaking, Hamazura Shiage suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and for the first time kept up with the rhythm of Shikuma Science.

"That's right, it's the AI. The Eden armor is the first armor loaded with AI. I didn't expect that AI to be able to do this."

The Kamen Rider series of armor only has auxiliary calculation functions similar to the tree diagram calculus. Even the Yak 0 armor is only loaded with the function of linking to the Misaka network.

Eden is the first model equipped with AI in the true sense.Unexpectedly, this turned out to be a problem.The equipped auxiliary AI actually refused the developer's order.

And, it's not all there.

"I wonder if there is something wrong with this AI itself, it seems to be a little too intelligent."

"Didn't you develop this thing? Why do you feel very strange."

"This thing is not developed by me. It is an auxiliary AI prepared for the mass production test machine of the new drive armor that is in the process of development. The one on my side is also just a prototype test machine, so I just took it from there to save trouble. Come here."

"Ah this..."

"How should I put it, maybe it's a bit ruthless. Originally, even if your body completely collapsed and turned into a stream of sand, the Eden drive and the magnetic card would not be in such a miserable state. I have doubts about what the AI ​​did at the time. It's what kept you alive and brought the Eden armor to the brink of scrapping."

"Even if you say that, I don't know what's going on."

In a short period of time, what Hamazura Shiage heard was all things that challenged the three views and tolerance.Now that he can still keep up with the rhythm, he feels that he needs to be praised.

"I didn't intend to ask you either."

"Uh……"

"Finding an answer to these questions is what we researchers need to do. I brought you here just for one thing."

Shikuma Rika stretched out his hand and tapped on the glass window lightly, pointing to the drive that looked like a graphics card at the back and said.

"The Eden armor can only be used by you, this is a matter determined by the intelligent AI. So, otherwise, the Eden armor plan is abandoned here.

Otherwise keep going.Now the data is being transferred, if you continue to develop, you can impose restrictions and increase the security, but even so the risk is still very high, after all, its design starting point is not something that normal humans should use.So now the decision is up to you, you who have been chosen by Eden, do you want to give it up? "

Chapter 53 FBI! OPEN THE DOOR!

The current time is about two o'clock in the morning.

But in fact, the whole city can still be called an endless stream, an endless stream.

People are eating snacks on the street as usual, and the bus is still running late at night, and it is not empty, and there are still many passengers on board.

The bus passed by the station slowly, and a bunch of men and women got off the bus.

Just looking at the attire, your male attire is much weirder than your female attire.If you look at age, women are much older than men.

"The residents of this city are more free than I imagined."

For some reason, the man suddenly let out such an exclamation.

"Frankly speaking, going out at this point is actually risking your life."

"But even so, there is still no way to stop them. Maybe this is their style. Or, when the whole country has become like this, they can only entertain until death."

"But it can't be said that there is no sense of precaution. At least there is no female passenger on the bus at this point. Well...except for you. There are always a few guys looking at you with malicious intentions, and their eyes are like It's like trying to strip you clean and throw you on the bed."

"Oh, but in fact, there is no one following up. This is all thanks to your protection, Lord Knight."

"Will I, an ordinary high school student who can be seen everywhere, be able to become the guardian knight of the legendary Valkyrie one day? I am so honored."

The female spoke to the boy in a flat tone.If the conversation between the two of them was heard by the residents here, they would probably be furious, but in fact, the two people who got off the bus turned their faces and walked towards the dark part of the city where no one dared to approach at this point. It disappeared into the sticky darkness.

Because it disappeared so quickly that people would wonder whether this pair of men and women had ever appeared, and whether it was their hallucination.

These two people were Yuu Omizumi and Brunhilde who secretly left Academy City through special channels.

Due to certain considerations, the two of them did not follow Li Ming Chen Guang's special plane to London before landing, but jumped off the plane halfway.

No matter how stupid an idiot would be, he would not use such a suicide method, but in fact, the two of them landed safely.

And now, two people came to this city because of certain things.

The capital of the United Mexican States, Mexico City.

With an area of ​​1525 square kilometers, the city is the most populous metropolitan area in the Americas and the highest-altitude metropolitan area in the world.It is the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of Mexico, and also a famous international metropolis.

In addition, it is the oldest city in the Western Hemisphere, full of ancient Indian cultural relics.

Just listening to this description, you may think that this is a beautiful city, but in fact the situation in this country is much worse than imagined.

About 60.00% of the world's drugs will flow into the United States, and Mexico is the main drug exporting country of the United States. More than 90.00% of the drugs in the United States come from Mexico as a neighbor.

Of course, this does not mean that Mexico can make a lot of money just by selling drugs.Mexico itself wants to ban drugs, but it can't do it at all.

This is not just a matter of policy implementation, even the Mexicans themselves believe that this has no impact on their lives.

In the 70s, the nutritional intake of more than 60.00% of Mexico's total population was below the minimum standards set by the World Health Organization, and most of these people were farmers, who began to illegally grow Papaversomniferum L and Cannabissativa L. in order to increase income.

The drug cartels will even pay farmers who grow PapaversomniferumL and CannabissativaLo about six times the daily salary of farmers who grow normal corn.

Seven out of ten students dream of becoming drug dealers.

Farmers occupy three percent of Mexico's entire land to grow drug raw materials, and the Mexican government knows that the main production area is in the Sierra Madre Mountains.But nothing can be done.The peasants can only still occupy the mountain as king.

As long as you understand these basic facts, you can know that even as a capital, it is a foolish idea to think that drugs and drug dealers will disappear here.

Gangsters, shootings, robberies, drugs, human flesh trade... this is what this country looks like.It is also why it is necessary to risk your life to go out at this point.

"It turns out one thing."

"what?"

"The connection between social security and national conditions does not seem to be as close as imagined. As long as you are brave enough, horses can still run and dance, and beauties can still dance to find handsome men."

Brunhilde, who didn't know how to answer Kanizumi for a while, had to remain silent.

Two people are walking in a dark alley with no one there. Compared with the still bustling city, this place is like a shadow or another side. From the moment you step here, you can’t see a single person, and the bustle also goes away. , the noisy voice seemed to be the whisper of another world.But as it continued to deepen, it seemed that there were gradually other voices around.

That's what makes the city so dangerous, risking your life to go out at night.

"However, speaking of it, there is no sense of urgency at all here before World War III is approaching."

"That's because it's not much better here."

Such an answer may contain some prejudice, or it may be a part that has not been taken for granted after investigation.

But in fact, the two of them were just chatting idly, so no one would pay attention to whether the details were correct.

This is the dark side of the city, filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke, sweet and greasy, and the smell of hormones emitted by human sexual intercourse.Together, these flavors are pungent and... seductive...

Although it is dangerous, if you can be like a fish in water in this field, you can also reap huge wealth and rights that ordinary people can't imagine in a lifetime.

As the sharp conflict between the Roman Orthodox Church and Academy City continues to exert its influence on the entire world, there are parades in various places.But I don't know if it's too late here, and there are no people who saw the parade.

"What are we doing here?"

Probably because Brunhild hadn't gotten an explanation about her actions until now, she couldn't bear it and finally asked.

Gan Quanyou raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"I thought you didn't care, so I didn't tell you."

"How could you not care, idiot." Brunhilde said helplessly.

"So, after leaving Academy City, the first thing we did was to fight drugs? Shouldn't that be something the Mexican police do?"

"You're right, that's what the Mexican police are supposed to do. In fact, I don't have much time to spend on it right now, even though I don't share my life with drug gambling."

Gan Quanyou shrugged and replied in a relaxed tone.

"Simply put, our purpose is for "diamonds". "

"diamond?"

"Yes, there are only about fifty or so diamonds in the world."

Saying that, Gan Quanyou and Brunhilde suddenly raised their feet and kicked towards the big iron gate in front of them at the same time!

Accompanied by a loud bang like thunder, the iron gate flew towards the inside.

"FBI! OPENTHEDOOR!"
