Nine years is not a long time.

For those who live day in and day out, nine years is just a snap of a finger, and most of the busy people have lost the concept of time.

Their time is measured using money.

"My daughter was only thirteen years old at the time, and she knew the people of the temple, and at first I didn't notice it, and then she became more and more abnormal......"

The middle-aged man's name is Zhong Xiong, and he used to be just a small owner of a fruit stall in Central City.

Although life is not rich, ordinary days occasionally have some warm flashes.

Until his daughter got to know the people of the temple.

"That man...... At the beginning, he was just an ordinary member, but he seemed to have been completely brainwashed and mentally abnormal, how could anyone believe that there were really immortals in this world. ”

Zhong Xiong sighed.

His daughter gradually became mysterious, often doing strange things.

Even sometimes at the door of his own house, he would suddenly kneel down, look reverent, and bow to the city suspended in mid-air, chanting words in his mouth.

Later, he approached the man at the temple and asked him what he had instilled in his daughter.

The man smiled gently, invited him to sit down, and explained to him why there were gods in this world.

He said...... His very existence is the greatest miracle in the world. ”

"Did he tell you why?" Lu Wen asked.

"No, he just said at the time that if I would like to join their organization, he would tell me why."

Zhong Xiong naturally refused at that time.

He angrily returned home and locked up his daughter, not allowing her to touch the inexplicable things again.

But her daughter is like a completely different person.

That night she escaped through the window, returned to the base camp of the Order, and, in full view of everyone, walked up to the altar and stood on top of the pyre, which had been soaked in gasoline.

"Those who say what kind of sacrifice or sacrifice are in their mouths, and they say that whoever becomes a sacrifice will ascend to the heavenly city and become one of the rulers of that city......

When Zhong Xiong arrived, it was too late.

All that remained on the pitch-black altar was a charred corpse.

Having lived in the city for so long, he naturally also has weapons for self-defense.

Grief-stricken, he drew his pistol and killed the leader who was about to recruit him.

But he himself was badly wounded, having been hit in one arm.

The man who pulled his daughter into the temple shot him.

Later, like a lost dog, he escaped from the city.

"Nine years have passed, and I didn't expect him to become the new leader of the temple."

This organization sounds like evil. Teaching makes no difference.

"Recuperate first, it just so happens that I have a little conflict with that organization, and we will solve it together when the time comes." Xia Chuluo said lightly: "Take the money back, I have a lot of this thing." ”

Lu Wen still doesn't know how much money Xia Zheng left for Xia Chuluo.

As summer is in time.

No matter how many zeros there are on Xia Chuluo's bank card, Lu Wen will not be surprised.

"I came to this city to avenge my father, and you came to give your daughter, which is quite a coincidence, and it just so happens that I am very interested in meeting the leader of that organization, you can go back and rest."

After expressing his gratitude, Zhong Xiong left with his money.

The lobby on the first floor was much quieter again.

Xia Chuluo turned his head to look at the rain curtain for a while, and said to Lu Wen: "What do you think? ”

Lu Wen thought for a moment and said very seriously: "If you guess correctly, the current leader should be the No. 1 chip made by Yin Long." ”

The time is right, it was nine years ago.

At that time, Yin Long just put the first emotion chip, and mixed that chip with the countless androids in Canterlot who had not yet turned on.

According to Zhong Xiong, that person was just an ordinary member at that time, and he should have just joined.

And he wasn't sure if the man was human or android.

Of course, there is another very important word.

"He said his presence was the greatest miracle, and that's what I thought when I first turned it on."

The good thing of rebirth was actually encountered by himself.

Now that I think about it, it's all in vain.

But it's likely that Chip One hasn't recognized its true identity yet.

That's why he was so hopelessly obsessed with the doctrine of the gods.

……

……

Distant no-man's land.

After a mass transfer that lasted for fourteen days.

The tens of millions of androids in Baker City finally heard a piece of good news.

"The first organization of a million compatriots has arrived on the outskirts of Mowu City, and now it is only half a day's journey from the place where the city was built, and it is resting, and it is easy to be discovered if you move forward."

The first organization was led by Lu Wen.

Fang Zhou also occasionally broke away from his own organization and came to Lu Wen's side to take a stroll.

It is indeed simple and fast to cross no man's land alone, but this large-scale transfer is too troublesome.

"How many androids are there in Mou City?" Fang Zhou asked: "The number must be hundreds of millions, these days androids are like mobile phones, every household has one, almost one per person." ”

"I haven't counted it, and Bilan has never given data."

It's not that Granblue doesn't want to give, when the two companies first competed, they would give sales to the outside world every year.

Later, there were more and more events of android awakening.

The two companies have a tacit understanding, and they have stopped giving specific data to the outside world.

"If you really give sales data, sell tens of millions of units a year or something, those android conspiracy theories guys will not be able to sit still again, and the two companies will not be bored."

But hundreds of millions of units definitely have.

There is not a single manpower.

Some androids are abandoned after two or three years of use, and the employer replaces them.

Most of the abandoned ones were sent for scrapping, and very few were able to escape.

"In the past, not long after I started the film in Baker City, I often heard the soldiers next to me discussing how prosperous Mowu City is, with stable law and order, high-rise buildings, blue projections all over the sky, and opportunities everywhere......"

The Ark had some yearning for the city not far away.

The names of each city are distinctive.

The first mayor of Mou, a mathematician who survived the war, liked the Möbius ring and proposed to call it 'Möbius City'.

Later, the people felt that the name was too long, so they changed it to Mowu City.

As for Baker City, the mayor at the time was a detective enthusiast, especially Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes.

Sherlock Holmes' residence was at 221B Baker Street, so he named the city Baker City at that time.

The city of Kerry to the north takes its name from the complex of buildings of a once powerful country, but that country was destroyed long before numerous wars.

And Canterlot ...... The city lives up to its name.

"I'm going to leave and see how the little organization before I left is doing, do you want to come along?" Lu Wen asked.

"Of course."

The Ark is interested in all things Mou City.

"I'm going too!"

Yin June jumped out of the car, his long hair fluttering, like a red elf.

The long trek of more than ten days did not make her feel tired, but more excited.

After being away from Mou for so long, this is the first time she has returned home.

"Okay, one person and one car, I'm in front, you all follow me behind, don't run around, there is quicksand in some places, it's easy to get stuck in."

This is Lu Wen's home field.

He was quite familiar with the no-man's land outside the city of Mou.

Wind and sand swept through the tents where the people were stationed.

Many androids sat outside the tent, looking at the brilliant starry sky in the no man's land.

It is said that the compatriots of the city of Mou are already working on the construction of the city, and although they have promised many unequal treaties, they ...... After all, it is the construction of the city, and finally I can have a home.

The Ark once said that androids should not have a home, and that it is their destiny to wander around, and that is safer.

But occasionally I feel tired, and it's nice to have a place to stop.

"How's the progress of the construction of that android alliance?"

Before leaving, Fang Zhou asked.

"At the moment, everything seems to be normal, most of the buildings in that ruined city have been torn down, and the human side is quite quiet, and the androids can give whatever they want."

It's eerily quiet.

According to the news obtained by Wei Bo'an, the two people from Floating City did not leave.

It stands to reason that the negotiations are over, and those two guys should go back.

Lu Wen started the car and led the way in the front.

Fang Zhou and Yin June were on his left and right, and the dust behind them was too heavy.

A night's rush.

At dawn.

The trio arrived at their destination.

Colourful strips of light hung on both sides of the city's roads, posters and banners were posted on some of the low dilapidated walls, and the main streets were cleaned.

Several child androids are frolicking around the city.

"Nine, this city doesn't look like it lives like an android, it feels a little bit like a human city." The Ark exclaimed.

"Androids don't have to live in poor conditions, before I left, I asked Huang Liang to try to make the city as warm as possible."

When the child androids saw the three of them, they all stopped playing.

"Hello, are you looking for someone?"

One of the children asked, in a very childish voice.

These child androids are specially customized for families who have lost their children, and there are very strict rules that ordinary families or individuals cannot customize child androids.

Even families who have lost their children need to go through certain psychological tests before they can be customized to qualify.

"I'm looking for Huang Liang, is he there?" Lu Wen asked.

"He's here, sitting in the tall building in the center, saying he's waiting for our leader, Nine, to come back."

"I'm Nine."

"Huh? But...... But......" the kid scratched his head, "we have the portrait of Nine, he ...... He's not as handsome as you. ”

"Androids can have an infinite number of faces." Lu Wen smiled and rubbed the child's head.

Since Huang Liang has been sitting on a tall building, he must have seen him.

Not long after, Xiong Zhuang and Huang Liang drove to the street into the city.

"Nine, you're finally back!"

Lu Wen was greeted by a bear hug from Xiong Zhuang.

After such a long time, Lu Wen was also plastic surgery by Dr. Jiang, and these two guys still recognized him.

"If you don't come back, I want to ask Huang Liang to take the organization to another place." Xiong Zhuang said.

"What's wrong?" Lu Wen looked at him.

"During your absence, the android alliance came several times, saying that they had successfully signed a treaty, and that they had chosen the address and started building the city."

Xiong Zhuang 1510 said what happened during this time.

"Those guys from the Bionic Alliance, they still say things like 'It's a pity, Nine can't be there to witness it in person'...... 'If Nine can see it, I'll definitely apologize for the opposition at the time', I really want people to beat them up."

Lu Wen could probably imagine the scene at that time.

These androids are just tendons, and they don't speak without a filter.

"It's okay, I did have an argument with them at the time, and now they should come over to show off their achievements, otherwise I'm worried that they will panic." Lu Wen smiled.

"Nine, are we going to join that city?" Huang Liang asked.

"What do you think?" Lu Wen looked at him.

"I think the so-called construction of the city may be a hoax."
