The human race of the new era is trapped in the big cities, dividing the entire continent with one big city after another, but not just confined itself to the big cities.

Psionic energy and high dimensionality have eroded the entire world, but they have also brought endless resources and possibilities to it.

One after another, independent industrial cities and industrial fortresses continue to provide resources and specialties to the big city and its surrounding ecosystem, and the fortress towns that block dangerous passages and stabilize the ultra-risk space, while providing security for civilians and hunting opportunities for hunters.

How strong a big city is actually depends on its circle of influence, that is, how far its government decrees and permanent armed personnel can reach, and how many satellite cities it has in its sphere of influence, and how many resources and opportunities it can provide.

Entering the sphere of influence of a big city, similar to entering the sixth ring of the city, is greeted by one post station after another, which also means that it is relatively safe from now on and can relax a little.

Young people who go out of the city for the first time, looking at the periphery of the digital city, will inevitably compare the unfamiliar environment in front of them with the familiar scenery, and the result is ......

“...... It's a bit disappointing. Isn't it said that Digital City is the oldest and most senior city among the six cities in central China, how can this environment be ......?"

Entering the border sphere of influence, Zheng Li saw many post stations, but both in terms of scale and the number of people stationed, they were only less than half of the city.

To be more specific, a peripheral post station in Shiqian City requires at least two special teams and one vehicle, two or three small buildings, and even a large psionic network hypothetical equipment.

Zheng Li now saw that it was indeed a small room, three or five people, a small team was indebted, and there was no means of transportation, so it could not be effectively supported.

Contact devices? Zheng Li saw the wooden wolf Yantai. It takes you back to the Middle Ages.

When the number of people is so small and the equipment is so poor, can it really maintain the safety and stability of the main road, and the warbands that go out are at risk, and there is no need to ask for help from such a station....... Unless it's all top-level combat power?

Zheng Li shook his head, this was becoming more and more unrealistic.

He pulled the map and looked at it again, and found that the farthest distance of this periphery was not even the border of the Fifth Ring Road of the city? Zheng Li's expression became more and more subtle.

But soon? He encountered something he couldn't understand again.

In less than three kilometers, he saw at least three such stations? A medium-sized post station similar to the city of Shiqian.

Every post station in the city? At least two kilometers apart, some even four or five kilometers apart? One after the other, even to the point where they are visible to the naked eye.

Zheng Li gasped? There was a vague guess...... He went to the veteran Feng Muen to verify this guess.

"Yes? You're right. Such a layout would cost three to four times as many resources and capabilities, but there was no way out, their big city was too weak......."

The big city of mankind is like a nail? Stubbornly nailed to the continent and space? Not only as a stabilizer of the sphere of influence, but also as a stabilizer of the surrounding space.

Space earthquake has always been the most feared and helpless natural disaster for human beings in this world, when the two worlds collide with each other, the mortals caught in the middle don't know how they don't know how they don't.

Is the big city just existing? It can effectively curb the birth of space earthquakes, and by the way, reduce the number of otherworldly invasions that are classified as secondary disasters.

The actual control sphere of influence of Shiqian City is only to the Fourth Ring Road? But in fact, the periphery of the Sixth Ring Road is all profitable, and the stability of the space is significantly higher than that of the no-man's land? The layout of the post station within the Sixth Ring Road is barely enough.

But Digital City is different, it uses an older version of technology? Is it one of the oldest big cities? Rather limited spatial stabilization? It has even been regarded as a weak point in foreign invasions for a long time, and many stable foreign passages are the remains of ancient battlefields.

Even now, the frequency of dimensional earthquakes here is more than five times that of Shiqian City, and with it, more human resources are invested in the sphere of influence, and there is no way to do it with a relatively narrow range of resources and too dense post stations.

"That's not all, most of their expenses are actually in those stable spatial channels, the top batch of combat power is not blessed to enjoy happiness in the city, although the foreign tribes have signed an armistice agreement....... Hehe. ”

The veteran's last cruel smile made Zheng Li understand in an instant.

Peace has never come from an agreement or an agreement, but simply because of the balance of strength and the need for interests......

"If they can't beat it, they don't want to fight."

Zheng Li nodded silently and did not continue to ask.

Most of the time, not only has peace just arrived, but all kinds of small actions, small frictions, and even the possibility of counteroffensive have always involved the core energy of Digital City.

But from another point of view, the resource acquisition of the digital city may not be the fortress and town on the surface, but more of those stable foreign passages.

It is enough to know about other people's affairs, Zheng Li planned to continue to do his own thing, but the veteran hesitated, but took the initiative to say to Zheng Li.

"Our trip went smoothly this time, even to the point of saving a week's drive, but this is not a normal situation, I hope you don't underestimate the risks of the outside world, the trolls and hostiles in the no-man's land will often cut off the main roads, and the time required for detours and strong battles is expected to be in the middle of the journey. In the eyes of veterans, the safest wild areas are far more dangerous than the most dangerous areas of the Sixth Ring Road. ”

Zheng Li was a little surprised, this is really outside the scope of "common sense".

The veteran Feng Muen pointed to the ceiling, and the second floor was a gathering place for private areas.

"You may not feel it, but that one has not concealed his existence at all, and is constantly exuding his own spiritual energy fluctuations mixed with killing intent to the surroundings, and the powerful alien beasts and foreign races with slightly better brains have run as far as they can."

Psionic fluctuations? Killing intent? What? Zheng Li didn't feel it at all.

"Heh, you'll understand later, this fluctuation is quite slight, and the instrument can't detect it purely by feeling. It's probably the same as the old dog's peeing enclosure.,It's just that now it's a big monster who is enclosing the land.,The little monsters with brains naturally run as far as they can.。 In the past few days, the extra meal is obviously brainless and unconscious, of course, it may also be that the one himself wants to add food, which reduces the intensity of deterrence. ”

Although this metaphor is a bit dirty, Zheng Li also understood it instantly.

This may be the reason why the journey will be relatively safe and smooth, and you should be more careful when you return to the journey, which is probably not as difficult as the way you came.

If you are not alert at all and are unlucky enough to encounter a big monster, you are likely to overturn directly.

Thanking the veteran for his kind reminder, Zheng Li focused on the current business.

The business at hand includes completing the delivery task, docking the newcomer competition with the digital city, and by the way, there is also the task of finding someone, not only Aquarius, but also the possible relatives of Sister Yinzi.......

"Huh!"

And the pain from the vest almost made Zheng Li fall to the ground directly.

His face was calm, but cold sweat kept dripping down his cheeks, and he slowly walked back to his private space.

Entering the house, locking the door, facing the mirror, he took off his shirt and looked ....... I gasped, and instantly I had the urge to turn my head and run.

It's not just an Aquarius that lights up at the vest, Aries is blood-colored and unusually dazzling.
