Leaving the "Lingchuang Creature", the sun has set in the west, and the lights are on.

The whole Dragon City is in splendor.

Meng Chao received a call from Ning She and invited him to attend a gathering of bigwigs in the biochemical modulation technology circle.

Many people know that he helped the "Spirit Creature" find the missing giant sandworm and found key evidence, coupled with his outstanding performance in the offensive on the northern front, he is very interested.

After learning that the "Super Star Resource Recycling Company" is also his family's industry, he seems to regard him as a newly rising star of hope in the circle.

Meng Chao just wanted to agree, but Lu Siya's call came in.

After thinking about it, he apologized to Ning She and me, and picked up Lu Siya's phone first.

"What did you find?" The two spoke in unison.

As a result, Lu Siya said first: "Jin Yongqiang's capital account exchanges, I don't see too many problems, and now many criminals and criminals like to use high-purity high-grade spars as currency, and directly 'cash' transactions, which will not be exposed on the Internet."

"As for his whereabouts, his whereabouts in the past half a month are also very regular, except for a few trips to the No. 4 garbage dump, and then to the pet store directly operated by the 'Lingchuang Creatures', and bought a 'Race Tiger', there is nothing suspicious, all day long either to the company, or to the monster gladiatorial arena......"

"Wait."

Meng Chao's heart moved, and he interrupted Lu Siya, "What is he doing in the monster gladiatorial arena?" ”

"Gambling, doesn't the information say that Jin Yongqiang is addicted to gambling?"

Lu Siya said, "His favorite way of gambling is monster gladiatorial fighting, of course, this is also the way that most Dragon City gamblers like, thrilling, exciting, and bloody."

"Since a few years ago, Jin Yongqiang has been soaking in the monster gladiatorial arena whenever he has time, going to at least ten times eight times a month, and the frequency has not changed in the past month.

"What, do you think there's anything suspicious about this?"

"Monster Gladiatorial ......"

Meng Chao fell into deep thought.

Watching beast fights is one of the oldest forms of human entertainment.

After the Dragon City crossed, surrounded by monster mountains, the space was small, and the people's spirits were both nervous and depressed.

Now, there are dozens of legal monster gladiatorial arenas in Dragon City, large and small.

There are countless illegal underground gladiatorial arenas.

Although all major live broadcast platforms have launched live videos of the strong hunting monsters in the wilderness, cameras are equipped on the helmets and shoulders of the strong to try to obtain the first-person hunting footage, so that the audience can have an immersive experience.

But tickling through the screen and being there, hearing the deafening roars of the monsters, smelling the smell of death emanating from them, and even splashing their hot blood on their faces when the monsters are killed, is still different.

The taste of the latter, the live broadcast of any level of powerhouse, cannot be replaced.

The Survival Committee is also very supportive of monster gladiatorial as a recreation, or "sport".

On the one hand, it can cultivate the martial and warlike temperament of citizens.

On the other hand, it can also let the citizens see that no matter how fierce the monster is, there is nothing to be afraid of, and it is not honestly captured by humans and reduced to a tool of human entertainment?

Besides, the bloody killing can also vent the anger of the citizens, so that everyone can maintain harmony in the small living space, which is beneficial and harmless.

That being said, everything is too much.

With the development of the monster gladiatorial industry, gradually, many citizens feel that the fight between ordinary monsters is too prosaic and not enjoyable enough.

For the sake of attendance and to ensure safety, the practitioners of monster gladiatorial fighting had to use biochemical modulation to modulate the monsters under their command.

For example, their attack organs are made larger and sharper, or their appearance is more hideous and ugly, or even the characteristics of several monsters are blended together to create something similar to stitching monsters.

Even, in order to win the championship in a "season", each monster team may inject various forbidden potions into the monster's body, turning ordinary monsters into berserk monsters.

In the world of competitive sports, doping is something that can never be banned.

In the circle of monster gladiatorial fighting, there will always be legal or illegal biochemical concoctions.

Many monster arenas or well-known monster teams have their own biochemical laboratories that concoct various top-secret formulas of genetic potions.

Theoretically, there is no difficulty in concocting a variant of rabies virus or something.

Meng Chao thought of this and asked, "Do you know where Jin Yongqiang's favorite monster gladiatorial arena is?" ”

Lu Siya was silent for a moment and spit out four words: "Golden Tooth Nest City." ”

"Nest City?"

Meng Chao gasped.

Nest City is a unique architectural form in the bloodiest and dark ages of Dragon City half a century ago.

It can also be said that it is a unique social organization, a concrete and tiny little world.

At that time, there were a large number of zombies roaming in the streets and alleys of Dragon City.

There are also citizens who carried the zombie virus, but they did not attack, but were unlocked by the zombie virus to have their genetic seals, awaken their extraordinary powers, and become transcendental.

It's a pity that the first generation of transcendental beings have not yet mastered the art of cultivation, and often wake up into a demon, and their brains are destroyed by the berserk psychic energy, causing their personalities to become distorted and violent, and they are reduced to lawless humanoid beasts.

Not to mention, there are also sporadic monsters that break through the space barrier, invade the interior of Dragon City, and together with zombies and transcendents who go crazy, turn Dragon City into a bloody jungle where the weak eat the strong and the law is in danger.

In order to defend against various threats.

The surviving citizens had to organize.

They blocked all the entrances and exits to their quarters, and the windows were all blocked, leaving only small shooting holes.

and used sharp steel bars to turn high-rise buildings into steel hedgehogs.

The modern residential areas have all become "dock forts" in the troubled times of ancient times.

The problem of insufficient space inside the residential area is solved by digging into the ground and dividing the floors as much as possible.

In this way, high-rise buildings with a height of more than three meters and a total of thirty or forty floors can often dig out seven or eight more floors into the ground, while the ground is divided into fifty or sixty floors, and each room is as narrow as a worm's nest, but it can accommodate the survivors.

Gradually, the dock forts of different "survivors" merged with each other in the process of digging underground.

The hive-like buildings have become a "nest city".

The nest city is a symbol of human beings' extreme use of space.

It is also the only safe haven for the survivors of that bloody dark age.

It is the last home that everyone must protect when they work together.

In its heyday, Dragon City used to have "Ten Nest Cities", and 80% of the citizens lived in it.

At that time, those who dared to leave the nest city and wander outside were either zombies, or out-of-control transcendents who went mad, or well-trained combat teams of major companies, as well as peerless powerhouses such as "Martial God" Lei Zongchao, "Valkyrie" Su Jianqing, and "God of War" Wu Tiedao.

But Nest City has its own problems.

The buildings are disorganized, grow wildly, it is impossible to pass any sanitary and fire regulations, and it is extremely prone to fire.

And the space is so small that it violates human nature, and if you live in it for a long time, your mind will be distorted, and the anger of countless people will gush out, and it will become a paradise for crime.

In order to resist the threat of the apocalyptic crisis and the collapse of order, the residents living in the nest city had to huddle together to keep warm, forming various forms of associations and gangs, often only knowing righteousness and not the law - of course, at that time, there was no law at all.

If a certain nest city resident kills someone, as long as he hides in the depths of the nest city, which looks like a labyrinth, others want to find him again, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is almost impossible.

Therefore, after the "Martial God" Lei Zongchao relied on the incomparably strong super god power to deter the nine major companies at that time, and helped the "God of War" Wu Tiedao to rebuild the Red Dragon Army, and then set up a "Survival Committee", promulgated a new law, and restored social order, the first priority facing the "Survival Committee" was to transform the nest city and restore the appearance of the city.

After 20 years of hard work after the "Great Expedition 10 Years" and the "10 Years of Great Construction", the appearance of Dragon City has already undergone earth-shaking changes.

Countless communities such as "Tianfuyuan", although simple, can guarantee the basic dignity of human beings.

Today, it seems old, noisy, and cramped, but back then, it was a "mansion" that countless Chaocheng residents flocked to and couldn't wait in line.

As a large number of Chaocheng residents have moved into the new community.

And the Survival Council has proven itself powerful enough to help the populace fend off the threat of zombies, monsters, and out-of-control transcendents.

Nest cities have crumbled and been transformed into new commercial and residential areas.

Today, seven of the "Top Ten Nest Cities" in Dragon City have disappeared.

But due to time, financial resources and various reasons, there are still three nest cities standing.

Residents who still live in Chaocheng cannot find suitable jobs outside because of physical disabilities or other reasons, and they cannot even pay the rent of public rental housing.

Or having lived in the nest city all their lives, they have long been accustomed to everything around them, just like a bug is used to its nest.

Or they have done illegal and criminal deeds outside, afraid of the suppression of the Survival Committee and the Transcendent Tower, so they simply take risks and flee into the depths of the nest city.

Or they have doomsday paranoia, don't believe in the ability of the survival committee, and think that Dragon City will collapse sooner or later, and Nest City will be the last fortress.

Or have all kinds of crazy ambitions, and want to use the mixed environment of Chaocheng to carry out all kinds of illegal experiments - for example, many people Meng Chao met at the underground life science forum have developed a new martial arts, and they often go to Chaocheng to find ignorant and fearless "guinea pigs" to experiment.

In short, today's nest city has changed its taste.

From a haven for survivors in the past, it has become a lawless place to hide filth and dirt.

Ahh

I really underestimated the power of the beast.

The calf is on summer vacation, and it is annoying to be at home all day, it is so difficult to endure, the noise makes me dizzy, my train of thought is interrupted every minute, and the speed drops significantly!

Why does this semester start so late, or do you have a summer vacation on time? Isn't it great to have summer vacation on August 25 and start school on September 1st?
