Chapter 480: The Parade
Lake slept until noon the next day, only to be woken up by Alita's "clang" on the door.
"What's the matter, Alita, who messed with you?" Lake asked suspiciously, looking at Alita's angry face.
I had a drink with Alita last night and had a good conversation, why did Alita get angry after only one night.
"Watt, the commander-in-chief of the sky city of Salem, has provoked me! Not only did you provoke me, but you also provoked everyone in our Steel City. This morning I went to the factory old Ben Victor to exchange my one million for the opportunity to go to Salem in the sky city, guess what the factory owner Victor said, and this morning, the matter of the steel city is too infuriating! Alita sat down in her chair angrily and looked at Lake.
"What did you say?" Lake had already guessed it.
"The matter of settling in Sky City has been canceled, and it will not be possible in the future. Victor told me that Salem was about to send troops down to clear our steel city. Preparing to let robots replace the humans in the City of Steel, Watt, the commander-in-chief of Salem, thinks that the humans in the City of Steel are too inefficient. Prepare to kill all the humans in the Iron City, and send robots to the ground to supply the Sky City with energy and food. And our boss, Victor, was ordered by Watt to assist in this massacre.
Fortunately, our boss, Victor, has lived in the Iron City on the ground for many years and refuses Watt's orders. You judge that we people in the Iron City have worked for the Sky City for hundreds of years to provide the Sky City with the energy to operate and deliver the best food to them. It's disgusting that they want to kill us all now! I wanted to go up and live before, but the people above were so evil. Alita said to Lake.
"Hmm. Castle in the Sky is so hateful! Lake chimed in.
"This morning, just now, more than a dozen unmanned planes flew down from the city in the sky to bomb our city of steel. Fortunately, the factory owner, Victor, mobilized many centurions and soldiers from the factory to shoot down the drones first. Now in the city, the city of the sky is going to attack us, and the word has spread that we are destroying our city of steel on the ground. Didn't you hear the sound of fire fighting in the morning? Alita asked Lake.
"I was so tired last night, I have been sleeping in the morning." Lake said.
Lake thought, not knowing if these drones were sent by Sky City to bomb, or if Victor directed and acted himself.
However, Lake estimates that Victor has a better chance of directing and acting himself.
The city of Salem in the sky has gone out of body to observe it in the past few months, and there are no drones at all.
There are only a few fighters, but the pilots of those fighters have long been taken care of by themselves, and the immortals who have been crippled with the Decay God Realm have also been crippled.
The current city of Salem in the sky should not be able to dispatch a fighter group to bomb the city of steel.
"There are already several marches on the streets of the City of Steel now, denouncing Salem, the city of Sky. And let the owner of the factory, Victor, stop sending energy and food to Sky City and prepare for battle. Fortunately, the factory owner, Victor, can control hundreds of centurion robots and has the factory's armed soldiers, otherwise the factory would have been overturned by these angry citizens. Alita spoke to Lake.
"What is the reaction of the factory owner Victor, after the drone attack sent by Sky City, does Victor have any other moves?" Lake asked Alita.
"The owner of the factory, Victor, is outside the factory gates, under the guard of the centurion robot, pacifying the citizens who are marching. Just before I came to you, I heard Victor say that he would leave for the sky city of Salem, and go to the commander-in-chief Watt in person, so that Watt could sanitize the idea of killing all the humans in our steel city. Victor, the boss, is going to board the metal pipe himself tomorrow and persuade Watt to go in person.
Victor asked everyone to calm down, he will explain to Salem's commander-in-chief, Watt, the actual situation of the steel city on the ground, and the people here are working hard to contribute to the operation of the sky city. Alita said.
"Have the marchers dispersed?" Lake asked Alita.
"No, some of the marchers will wait for tomorrow when our boss Victor boards the metal pipes and meet with Watt's commander-in-chief, and it is estimated that they will disperse with the latest results. There are also some people who are worried that Victor will take the opportunity to run away, blocking the factory gate, and now there is a commotion outside! Alita said.
"Let's go, follow me from the back of the factory, let's go to the Bounty Hunter Bar. I don't think our boss Victor will run, and if he wanted to, he wouldn't wait until today, let alone organize the centurion and the soldiers of the factory to shoot down those drones. Come with me to gather the bounty hunters and vouch for our boss Victor. Lake said to Alita.
Lake estimated that Victor was preparing to pretend to go to the Sky City, and finally came back to say that he had not persuaded Watt, the commander of the Sky City of Salem, that the massacre would come soon.
In this way, the people of the Iron City on the ground will take the initiative to ask for a war with the Sky City in a rage, which is much better than Victor himself organizing the people in the Steel City to participate in the war.
Lake feels that Victor, the ruler of the Steel City, has a really good idea, and he is worthy of being the boss who has controlled the Steel City for so many years, and he knows the thoughts of the people in the city.
Lake couldn't help but think, "This biochemical high-imitation robot Victor with a chip in his brain is very powerful, but fortunately, he used fire to change his chip first, and recognized himself as the main one, otherwise he would cause a lot of trouble to himself!" ”
Lake decided to cooperate with the little brother who received him, so that he could successfully leave the factory and go to Salem, the city of the sky.
In this steel city, although the citizens are a little afraid of bounty hunters, the prestige of bounty hunters, according to Lake's understanding, is still good.
After all, the Bounty Hunters organization is a team that hunts down and kills fugitives in the Iron City, and belongs to a righteous team that maintains order.
Lake thought that he would bring a team of bounty hunters to the parade and persuade him to guarantee that he would be able to vouch for the owner of the factory, Victor, so that Victor could board the metal pipe and go to Sky City tomorrow morning.
"Okay, I'll go with you." Alita said.
The two slipped out the back door of the factory and arrived at the Hunter's Bar more than half an hour later.
The bounty hunters, seeing that their sinister king was coming, hastened to meet them, and the Zapan dogs ran to meet them.
Zapan Dog asked Venerable No. 2 a few times when he could change his body back, and the answer of Venerable No. 2 Hunter King was that he would be tested again, and Zapan Dog would now endure the humiliation and behave well.
Lake explained his intentions and took away the more than thirty hunters present in the hunter's bar.
The hunter team is marching towards the factory.
Along the way, Lake also saw some signs of building damage and the wreckage of a falling drone.
