Chapter 156: Persuading Jonathan
Ling Xiao was photographed very comfortably: "It's as much as you want, money is no different from dung to me." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"I gave 10 trillion tatars first." Director Shi aimed at the payment for the "Slaying Dragon-class" raider that the Tiangong Group had just received from the Free Army.
Ling Xiao laughed and said, "Director Shi is going to buy Huaguo into the interstellar era...... The money is in the hands of Sun Yuan and Li Qiang, you can go to them. ”
Compared with Youbei and Lin, the Tata civilization has a very complete technology tree. One of the main purposes of Director Shi's visit to the Tata Civilization this time is to collect these technologies that can make Huaguo Technology improve as a whole. But whether it's scientific data or physical equipment, it takes money, and it's a lot of money. Director Shi actively promoted the arms deal with the Free Army, and also wanted to take a cut from it to complete his own interstellar purchase.
But after hearing that Ling Xiao was going to fight the God War here, he knew that it would be very dangerous for him to stay here any longer, so he planned to extort Ling Xiao a sum of money, and then buy something and run away.
And money was not something Ling Xiao fancied in the first place, so although he saw Director Shi's purpose, he still gave the money to Director Shi happily.
After receiving the money, Director Shi immediately returned to "Task Force One" to gather everyone and distribute the funds to procure everything they thought would be useful in Stormhaven. They will leave after the celebratory reception hosted by the Tiangong Group, and then go to the civilized zone to make another big purchase, and finally return to Earth the same way. As long as they can go back safely this time, Huaguo will be pushed to a new level of civilization in one fell swoop.
After Director Shi left, what to do with the money was no longer Ling Xiao's concern, what he needed to do was to convince Jonathan to show up at the celebration party.
"No, no, no! I'm not going to your reception, I'm not going to show up. You don't know how terrible it is for the people looking for me, as long as they can catch me, they can destroy the entire Stormhaven, they have the ability. When Ling Xiao informed Jonathan to participate in the evening celebration reception, Jonathan repeatedly refused, "For our safety, I will stay here honestly." As for the 'Steppenwolf-class' destroyers, whoever you want to say designed them is whoever designed them, and I only ask that after the reception, you can send me away and give me freedom. ”
"Freedom?" Ling Xiao sat across from Jonathan, stared at him with his eyes, and said, "If you leave here, you will never be free, and you can only run away again and again in the pursuit." And the one inside you, do you want her to be free? ”
Ling Xiao's words made Jonathan's hair rise all over his body, and he instinctively wanted to cast a spell, but found that he could no longer feel spiritual power. He asked alarmedly, "Who are you?" Why do you know my situation? Are you from the company? No, you're not, otherwise you'd just arrest me and lock me up at headquarters. ”
Ling Xiao said in a very relaxed tone: "You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that I can help you get out of the current situation, including the one inside you." As long as you do what I say, I promise that you can really talk face-to-face about human and ghost affairs. ”
Jonathan didn't trust Ling Xiao at all, and he said loudly, "Why should I trust you!" Now that you know my situation, you should also know what the company that arrested me is working on? I tell you, they are infinitely close to success, even if they are not yet completely eternal, but their power is not at all what we can fight against, and you will kill us all. ”
"You have no choice but to listen to me now. I think you should discuss with the person inside you, whether I should announce you out and leave you alone, or whether I should announce you out and have a good time with the company. ”
Jonathan then realized that things were as the other party said, and he really had no choice. However, he still asked the girl who was sealed in his body: "It seems that they have always known our identity, sorry, I still didn't get you out." ”
"Don't beat yourself up, Jonathan. Things may not be as pessimistic as you think. The girl had already opened her eyes, and through Jonathan's telling, she knew what they were going to face at this time, "Although I don't know what happened, it's certain that you can't feel the spiritual power that should be the other party's hands, it seems that it's not just the company that studies God." ”
Jonathan was surprised and said, "Are they also god warriors or artificial gods?" What's the difference between us falling into their hands and being caught by a company? ”
"I don't know Jonathan," the girl was also very afraid of the unknown future, "I can only trust you at this time, I believe in your choice ......"
Looking at the girl who was sleeping again, Jonathan had to muster up the courage to face Ling Xiao: "As you said, I have no choice in this matter, we can only rely on you, I will tell you where the company's headquarters is, and I can take you there." ”
But Ling Xiao waved his hand and said, "We don't need to go to them, since you are so important, we will wait here for them to send them to the door." Now you need to tell me how far the company has come in its research on God. ”
After the Tata civilization reached a certain level, the outbreak of technology made the whole society start to try to make the human body no longer diseased, and the life span was extended indefinitely. And under the influence of genetic technology, human lifespan has indeed begun to become longer.
However, those who have attained immortality have survived for a period of time to find that their minds have not remained alive with the extension of their physical lives, that their spirits are still aging, and that their vigorous bodies cannot prevent their minds from becoming old men in the twilight. Numb and misanthropy, this kind of walking dead can be seen everywhere in the entire Tata civilization, and a large number of people who are unwilling to continue to live like this commit suicide every moment, and the mood of self-destruction pervades everywhere, until one day this mood suddenly explodes.
The Tata civilization ushered in the darkest period of its history, when people fought each other with weapons, and it was a war that was not because of hatred, not because of wealth, and for no reason. Those who do not have the courage to commit suicide, who are frantically slaughtering others with weapons, only hoping for a bullet to end their empty lives.
During that period, there were Tatars everywhere who aimed their weapons at others and at themselves. No one wants to count how many people died during that period, and the planets that were in ruins told the surviving Tatars what price they would pay if they tried to violate the laws of the universe and try to make their small selves as eternal as the universe.
After the lesson of the near-destruction of civilization, the prohibition of research and transformation of man became the covenant of the Tata civilization.
But in fact, under the temptation of immortality, the research on transforming people has not ended, but has all gone into the shadows.
