[Everyone, I'm back.]

After adjusting the state for two days, the thinking is basically clear, everyone continue to watch me write stories!]

Chapter 189 [Senate]

The headquarters of the Senate in Zero City is actually not as mysterious as imagined.

Completely different from the expected guards, the headquarters of the Senate in Zero City has actually always been open to the public.

It can be said that every time there is an open day in City Zero, the headquarters of the Senate will also open up an area for outsiders to visit—of course, only a part of it.

The Senate is the place where the seven permanent teams manage the major affairs of City Zero on a daily basis, but this place is actually equivalent to a "small United Nations" in City Zero.

In fact, this place has never been the heart of City Zero.

If there is a need to discuss something, the elders of the seven teams will gather here for a meeting, and in normal times, there is nothing too confidential here.

In contrast, in Zero City, the place where the security is really heavily guarded is the base camp of each resident team, such as the "hive" of the sword mountain and the sea of fire.

And...... The base camp of the Angel Legion.

These places are the real "outsiders are not allowed to enter".

And the Senate, as a "small United Nations", is not as mysterious as it seems.

It's an oval-shaped building that looks like a huge stadium -- but it's enclosed.

Around the building, there is an empty plaza, on which there are even playful awakened people visiting and wandering around.

Obviously, today is an open day.

When Lan Hai and Chen Xiaolian walked side by side, the two people who had changed their appearances did not attract anyone's attention.

Chen Xiaolian noticed that there weren't many patrolling sentinel mechs around here, even fewer than around the Sea of Love.

"Each member of the Senate is a giant of the resident team...... Each of the giants is the top master in its own right, so the elders who come here for the meeting do not need any vigilance and protection at all. ”

Lan Hai walked in side by side with Chen Xiaolian and introduced: "The rules of the Senate are that the seven resident teams take turns to manage Zero City on a daily basis. Each team is on duty for three months, during the duty period, the resident team on duty to carry out the daily management of Zero City, of course, in order to ensure fairness and justice, during the duty period, the Angel Legion supervises.

Once a month, a regular meeting of all the elders is held to discuss the major events that have taken place in the past month. Zero City has its own system for evaluating the level of things, and ordinary small things can be handled by the resident team on duty. However, when things reach a certain level, the team on duty does not have the right to decide on their own, and must wait until the regular meeting to be voted on by all the elders. ”

Chen Xiaolian listened and raised his eyebrows: "There is only one regular meeting a month, won't it delay things?"

"If there is something urgent, you can hold an emergency senatorial meeting at any time. But it's rare - after all, it's City Zero, completely cut off from the outside world. Lan Hai shook his head: "Some small things on weekdays are nothing more than some small disputes, such as some transaction disputes on the black market, or friction between some teams and the Awakened. What big things can be. ”

Although the security was not very tight, in front of the oval building, when the two of them walked to the door of the hall, Chen Xiaolian still saw two patrolling mechas.

Obviously, this mecha should be a newer model of Sentinel, judging from its appearance, its shape is slightly different from Chen Xiaolian's familiar Sentinel II type, it looks smaller, and the armor on its body is more sealed, and the paint is also different.

The most important thing is that the weapons are also different, unlike the Sentinel II, which has an external mounted combat knife on the arm.

Chen Xiaolian saw the two sentinel mechas, one with a huge long sword hanging from his back, and the other holding a weapon like a long scythe in his hand.

"These are optional weapons, weapons that pilots have specially tailored to their combat characteristics. Lan Hai discovered Chen Xiaolian's idea, and introduced with a smile: "The ones you saw before are all mass production machines, and these ...... In each pilot's team, their own mechanics modify or even specialize. ”

"Is it more powerful?"

"......" Lan Hai hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "Generally speaking, the assessment of the combat department is that the specially modified mecha, with the same level of pilots, can defeat four mass-produced machines in one pick. Of course, the price is also more expensive. ”

When Chen Xiaolian and Lan Hai passed by these two mechas, they noticed that the one on the left, where the thruster behind them existed, actually had some strange and magnificent patterns on the thruster.

"It's like ...... Some kind of ...... Magic?" Chen Xiaolian was stunned.

"Well, this should be a magic machine. Lan Hai shrugged his shoulders calmly: "It has been modified with magic, and maybe a few magic attack or defense skills have been set up." ”

Chen Xiaolian couldn't help but take a breath.

The doors of the hall were open, these were two huge gates with a width of nearly ten meters, and they were completely transparent glass - of course, Chen Xiaolian bet that this material was definitely not glass.

"This door is some kind of polymeric material that can withstand the bombardment of two energy levels. Lan Hai smiled, he and Chen Xiaolian walked aside, took out a badge, and after shaking it on the "glass", the huge glass curtain door automatically melted into a small door about two meters high like magic.

Lan Hai and Chen Xiaolian walked in from this door together.

When I walked in, I realized how huge the interior of this oval building was!

There's even a separate ecological balance system inside.

There are flowers and plants, more than ten acres of exotic tropical plants are planted, there are water flows, and there are ponds.

A complete ecological balance system.

Look up, there are birds flying overhead?

Wait, birds?!

Chen Xiaolian was stunned for a moment.

Overhead, there is a sunny sky and birds flying.

"This ...... Is it all virtual projection?"

"No, it's true. Lan Hai smiled, and then his tone became serious: "To be precise, this is the use of space transfer technology to 'cut and copy' a piece of the sky from the real world outside, and then 'transplanted' it here." ”

"The real sky?!" Chen Xiaolian took a deep breath: "Cutting, transplanting?

Lan Hai thought for a while: "It's just to directly use space transfer technology to copy the sky somewhere outside directly here, well, it's not appropriate to say copying, it should be called 'import'." ”

Chen Xiaolian squinted his eyes twice, and suddenly pointed to the sky and asked, "That...... What happens if you fly up from here and into the sky, or what happens if you fly up from here to enough altitude and then move in parallel and move outside of City Zero?"

Lan Hai smiled and said, "I will leave Zero City, but after I go out, it will be the sky where the space shifts and jumps, falls in the outside world, and is 'imported'."

To put it simply, if this sky is the sky of a rainforest that you 'import', then you fly out of here and you will appear directly in that rainforest.

And if the sky is imported into New York or London......"

"Will it appear directly in New York or London?" Chen Xiaolian said curiously: "This is ...... Isn't it dangerous? Aren't you afraid to expose the location of City Zero?"

"No, it won't. Lan Hai shook his head: "The leap of space is one-way, that is, you can only go out from here, but you can't come in from the outside." And there's a special reason to keep this thing here......"

Chen Xiaolian didn't wait for Lan Hai to finish speaking, then frowned and said, "Emergency escape channel?"

“…… Yes. Lan Hai nodded: "In fact, this piece of sky was not made by the patriarchal group, it should have been here since the initial program setting of Zero City." On the contrary, it was this Senate building that was built later, enclosing the place inside. ”

After a pause, Lan Hai said slowly: "Moreover, we can't control this sky. We did a lot of experiments, and every time we went out of here, we would show up in a different location. Other words...... The sky above your head that you see now is randomly imported by the Zero City system, and it may have changed a coordinate in the next second. ”

"In other words, the sky I see now may be imported New York, and in the next second, or in a few minutes, it may become London?" Chen Xiaolian frowned: "Completely random?"

"It's completely random, we try to collect data and use models to calculate it, but we can't calculate the rules for the change of sky coordinates in the Zero City system, which means that we haven't mastered this until now.

But that's good news, we can't decipher it, so it's hard for the development team to find us. So, this escape route should be safe. ”

Chen Xiaolian took a deep look at the sky.

"You'd better not want to fly here. Lan Hai warned in a deep voice: "In the Senate Mansion, the first rule is that it is absolutely forbidden to fly! If anyone dares to try the law here, then the automatic attack weapon will not hesitate to knock it down when he takes off! These weapons are all made by the Angel Legion, and the awakened below the A level cannot dodge it." ”

Chen Xiaolian retracted his gaze.

Lan Hai saw that Chen Xiaolian no longer looked at the sky, as if he was relieved in his heart, and then took Chen Xiaolian to continue walking inside.

"This period of time happens to be the rotation of Daoshan Huohai, that is to say, the people who are on duty here now are all our people. So if you want to visit, it's very convenient. ”

Chen Xiaolian thought for a while and said, "I heard that anyone who becomes a resident team of Zero City can get the resources automatically allocated by Zero City, what I want to know is, how and where are these resources allocated? Or ...... Where is the main system program controller of City Zero?"

"What are you asking for?" Lan Hai glanced at Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaolian's face did not change: "I said, I want my team to become a resident team of Zero City, is this reason enough?"

"......" Lan Hai took a deep breath, and his face changed slightly: "You have this kind of thought?!"

"What, isn't it too unbelievable?" Chen Xiaolian shook his head: "Why can't I do what you have done in thirty years." Not to mention ......"

"That's right. Lan Hai sighed and nodded, "When I was refining blood, I found that your strength was very powerful, right...... Has the Heavenly Sword boosted your strength?"

Chen Xiaolian didn't answer this question, and said slowly: "Can my request be met?"

“…… It's not that hard. Lan Hai's answer surprised Chen Xiaolian: "In fact, the main control of Zero City, and the evaluation and identification of the resident team, etc., are all open to the public, and you can ...... at any time if you want to see it." It's just that maybe you'll be disappointed when you get there. ”

"What do you mean?"

A strange smile appeared on the corner of Lan Hai's mouth: "You will know when you go to see it." ”
