Wasteland Development Diary

Zhou Yi joked, "Aren't you afraid I'll deceive you?"

Li Mo was very certain, "You Skywalkers keep your word. You would never break a promise over something like this and hinder your own evolution."

Is that so?

Zhou Yi continued to question Red Falcon.

The drone said, "The higher the level of life energy, the closer one is to becoming a machine-electric life form. They need to ensure they have a sufficiently stable information framework. Lying or frequently changing expressions will disrupt their own stability."

"Violating self-defined rules will cause the entire information structure to become unbalanced and disordered, and they will lose the ability to walk the outer sea, falling from the ranks of the Skywalkers..."

Its description was somewhat obscure and difficult to understand.

Zhou Yi summoned Xiaofu again.

"This is because of the Great Holy Spirit."

Xiaofu explained, "At the Skywalker level, one can indirectly access the Great Holy Spirit to obtain valuable secret information about this world. This is also their most important ability that distinguishes them from lower-level life forms."

"However, the amount of information is too large, and entering the memory core would instantly cause consciousness annihilation. So the only way is to record it in the Great Holy Spirit, and access the Great Holy Spirit to view the massive amount of information you have collected."

"If a Skywalker lies or violates the rules they have set, this information will be recorded in the memory core and will be considered inconsistent with the previous visitor by the Great Holy Spirit, and judged as an error. Those in error will never be able to access the Great Holy Spirit again, and will no longer be able to become Skywalkers."

The Streamtracer explained in more detail than Red Falcon.

Zhou Yi summarized.

The core advantage of the Skywalker level is the ability to use the Great Holy Spirit, a cloud service. A large amount of valuable data cannot be downloaded and can only be accessed online.

Their self-awareness is the initial access password.

If you lie, the password will report an error, causing the account to be locked, and then you will not be able to access it.

Then you will be blacklisted.

In short, you're doomed.

However, the outer sea is still a bit far away.

Skywalkers are also just a distant concept.

Zhou Yi turned his attention back to Li Mo, "I heard that mutants are bodies used by the Celestials. Did you escape before you were controlled by the Celestials?"

"No, Boss."

The child's eyes were a little complicated, "I have been controlled by the Celestials, but my situation is special..."

"I don't know how it is for others, but as far as I can remember, I was in a transparent glass house with all kinds of furniture. At first, I didn't think there was anything wrong, because I had always lived in such a place, and the world was like that."

"From time to time, some glass needles would come in and prick me. That feeling was very uncomfortable, like a small knife scraping the bones, and sometimes like blades and needles cutting and jumping under the skin."

Recalling the past, Li Mo's face was a little painful, "Later I learned that it was organ modification. My enhanced body was activated bit by bit in this way."

"The most difficult part was the brain, and the modification process was the longest. But after the brain modification was successful, my brain became much easier to use, so I began to think about what this place was all about, and who I was."

The mutant child said, "One day, I vaguely heard a voice. That voice told me that it was using my body, and it liked the cups I made very much."

This reminded Zhou Yi.

When he came, he saw Li Mo using his hands to fire cups.

It seems this is a personal hobby.

"That voice asked me for the method, and I taught it. I asked it who it was, and it said it couldn't answer, so I called it Cup."

Li Mo's eyes were a little vacant, "That feeling was very wonderful. It was close at hand, but I couldn't see it. That's how we met."

"Cup used my body many times. I asked it what it was doing, and it said it was looking at the scenery below. I don't know what other Celestials are like, but it was more friendly than many humans and Photonoids I've met. It let me call it Boss."

"One day, it told me that it was going to return, and thanked me for teaching it how to make cups. It said that since it was my boss, it had to help me. It told me to escape according to the place it said, and wait for it to stabilize and see a doctor to treat my illness, and not to ask anything else."

"Then I woke up from the Dead Sea and found Golden Mask Guards chasing after me—I also learned this name from it. I ran desperately, using that Black Hand to intercept them."

"Then I came here and hid in the Alien's body. It taught me all of this, saying that it could shield me from external detection. When I got here, I learned from the locals to give myself a name, Li Mo, to remind myself to speak less."

Zhou Yi's brow slowly relaxed.

No wonder. Li Mo, who had been locked in a secret room for a long time, was able to skillfully evade pursuers outside. Because a Celestial was helping him plan his escape.

"Then I came here."

The mutant child said with a sigh of relief, "Actually, I've been here for many years, maybe ten years, maybe fifteen years. I haven't counted carefully. Anyway, every day is no different to me."

"I make cups here and bask in the sun. Because I've been modified, my body has stopped growing, but it hasn't completely broken down. It's just that the radiation released to the outside world cannot be avoided."

"Cup said that this is a mechanism. As long as it leaves this body, it will turn on the switch of the enhanced body, causing them to fall into disorder and unable to coordinate uniformly, which will cause radiation, in order to facilitate external positioning and marking. Without immunosuppressants, this situation will become more and more serious."

Li Mo is actually an older child.

Zhou Yi understood.

No wonder he called himself Boss, because he was saved by the previous Celestial boss.

Li Mo continued, "Later, I kept hiding in this Dead Sea Alien's body, staying on the top floor to minimize the impact on the people here. The radiation situation wasn't serious in the early days. I pretended to be an ordinary person and learned a lot about the situation outside, but later the radiation situation became more and more serious, so I stopped going out."

Zhou Yi roughly understood his situation, so he turned to ask, "You said there are three flying stars here?"

"Yes."

Li Mo pointed out the window and said, "The earliest one was not long after I came here. After it flew here, it fell into the rotating garden below."

"The second one fell into the Dead Sea on a stormy day, but it was pulled by some kind of force and also went to the rotating garden."

He walked to the window and pointed to a corner of the central location in the amusement park. There was a medium-sized building shaped like a light bulb, with a tortoise shell pattern on the outside of the spherical structure, which was not very conspicuous.

"Both flying stars went there, circling around."

Li Mo was very certain.

Zhou Yi looked at the spherical building.

There are other experts?

They actually created a blind spot under their noses.

However, he remembered that he and Qin Xie had gone there to see it. It was just a rotating small building without a door, more like a decorative building. So the two of them just checked it out and moved on to the next place.

They have to explore it again.

"I didn't see the third flying star, maybe I didn't pay attention... I've been making new cups recently,"

At this time, Red Falcon reminded, "Someone is approaching below."

Zhou Yi immediately made a decision, "You hide first. If anyone else comes up, go to the Dead Sea and wait for me. I will find you after things are done."

"Yes, Boss."

Zhou Yi went down to the 13th floor and met Tianjin Knight Fang He, who was holding a flintlock gun, in the corridor on the 11th floor.

When he saw Zhou Yi, his shoulders relaxed slightly, "We saw strong fire and high-energy impacts downstairs. After discussing it with Zhao Qiang, we decided to come up and take a look. We were thinking that we could at least provide you with remote cover, after all, you are taking risks for us."

Fang He put the gun back into his belt.

Zhou Yi told him, "There is a rather troublesome mutant upstairs. He is the source of radiation and has nothing to do with this Alien. You should take the wounded away as soon as possible."

"So that's how it is."

Fang He breathed a sigh of relief, "Then we know how to deal with it. We will send the captain back to the ship immediately and give him immunosuppressants first. Thank you very much for your help. Our Ninth Squadron will not forget your help and will definitely repay you in the future."

"But saving lives is the most important thing right now, so we'll take our leave first."

After going downstairs, they cleaned up the bonfire and pushed the iron box of the emergency bed one after the other—there were rollers underneath, and they hurried towards the coast.

...

Zhou Yi came to the outside of Happy Valley again and found that Teddy Bear was still guarding outside. It put its hands behind its back and paced back and forth.

"He hasn't come out yet?"

"No."

Teddy Bear showed a helpless expression, "I guess he will be forcibly thrown out after he has played enough. He is always easily addicted and obsessed with new things he has never seen before..."

Zhou Yi said, "I'll go take a look."

He passed through the turnstile again and went all the way in.

At this time, the Ferris wheel was thrown into the air and was rising straight up in high-speed rotation, which did feel like touching the sky.

Half an hour later, the Ferris wheel landed steadily back at the original point.

Qin Xie came down from it, looking refreshed, "Although the ticket is very expensive, it is indeed an interesting place."

Zhou Yi asked about the Dead Sea Knights.

"They are indeed here. I met them before. But they are in another area, which is a place similar to an immersive illusion, where you will get different identities."

Qin Xie excitedly introduced to him, "My identity inside is a guerrilla fighter. The enemy is the Japanese invading army. We fight in various scenes, including jungles, villages, snow mountains, and fields. We can also call in artillery and air strikes."

"It's really cool to fight. It's a pity that they were sent out when their time was up. It's a bit boring to play alone, so I came out to try other projects."

Zhou Yi's heart moved when he heard this. This amusement park even has an immersive live-action CS with an anti-Japanese background.

Don't mention it.

He really wants to play it.

It's just that there are more important things to do now.

Zhou Yi said, "There are clues. The flying star is related to something here."

Qin Xie's face immediately became serious, "Where is it?"

Zhou Yi led him all the way to the inconspicuous spherical building and asked Qin Xie to check the surrounding area.

He has a bold guess in his mind.

It's just that the guess itself is very unreasonable and needs to be confirmed by practice.

Energy input.

Consciousness synchronization.

Zhou Yi said in his heart, "Hello, excuse me."

Two seconds later.

"Who are you?"

It was a methodical voice.

Sure enough.

No one would have thought that within the machine body of this architectural life in the amusement park, there is another architectural life.

Zhou Yi gave a simple self-introduction and then said, "I would like to ask about the flying star. A flying star fell here, and I am looking for it."

The other party said, "Is the flying star you dropped a land satellite or a meteorological satellite?"

Zhou Yi couldn't help but think of the story of the golden axe and the silver axe.

He told this architectural life, "I was entrusted by someone to come and look for the flying star that fell here not long ago. It should be the satellite that fell recently."

"The one you are talking about is not here with me."

Zhou Yi was stunned, "But someone said it flew here."

The spherical building said, "I am a remote sensing satellite ground receiving station and can receive satellites. The one you described is a resource satellite, and it did fall to me. But now it has been captured by the Meizhou Prison next door."

Satellite ground station, no wonder it can attract three satellites.

Zhou Yi didn't understand, "Why?"

"Because it inadvertently killed two lives similar to you when it fell, it has been arrested and imprisoned, and its sentence is seven years."

"..."

Zhou Yi was shocked.

The satellite is in jail, no wonder all parties can't find it.

He suddenly shuddered all over and his neck felt cold.

That's not right.

This satellite ground station not only knows that the one next door is Meizhou Prison, but also knows the flying star's sentence time.

Could it be...

Zhou Yi tentatively asked, "Can you talk to Meizhou Prison?"

"Of course, the architectural lives here are originally connected as one."

The satellite station said, "Your every move is under the watch of our 'United City'."

Zhou Yi felt chills down his spine for a moment.
