Chapter 10: Tasks, Plans, Troubles
"Black Reef" is a comic work of violent crime and darkness, and Gu Wu, who has read it twice, has a very deep impression of this work.
In the past, Gu Wu was particularly fond of this kind of comics and movies, and in addition to it, he also watched the comic "Queen of Fire" and the movie "King of War".
This story is set in a fictional Thai coastal city - Roanapur (Roanapur), which is a paradise for gangsters and mercenaries, and the [Black Reef Chamber of Commerce] where the protagonist is located is to transport all kinds of 'goods' at sea, including leading people to run.
In fact, there are countless such chaotic cities in the modern world where Gu Wu originally lived, and the reason why he was curious about them was only because the country where Gu Wu originally lived was very safe, and it was not as chaotic as abroad, and he had to be careful of being shot when he went out.
Therefore, in the face of these things that he rarely comes into contact with, he will have a unique interest and want to dig out more content hidden in them, so Gu Wu began to investigate various materials.
I have to say that the Celestial Empire, where Gu Wu lived before, was very beautiful after entering the modern society, and there were neither foreign genocides nor terrorist attacks.
Of course, the world is not as safe as imagined, and the reason why some people feel happy is because misfortune is concentrated somewhere.
Just as people who don't have enough to eat, people who don't have a place to live, people who are kidnapped by criminal syndicates, just as people are born and die every day, there are people who are happy and unhappy every day.
Gu Wu, who was standing on the slope of the street at the moment, moved his gaze away from the lively harbor and landed on the right side, which was also a loading and unloading area, but it was currently being engulfed by fire, and Gu Wu, who was far away, could hear the sirens and shouts.
Roanapura is both an interesting and dangerous city, and many of the guys who live here are outlaws.
Gu Wu, who retracted his gaze, took out the wallet he had placed in his cross-body backpack, which contained the equivalent amount of money exchanged for this world currency, which was 100,000 US dollars to put it bluntly.
100,000 US dollars is not a small number, after all, there are more than 600,000 if you convert it into soft sister coins, and if you want to solve the problem within a week, this money should still be enough as activity funds.
"You were teleported while you were in the elevator, how the hell did you do that? And wouldn't the ability to use the ability to connect the two worlds run into the possibility of 'popping'? ”
Altair, who was standing next to Gu Wu, asked the question as she looked down on the city block below, and her concerns were very much in line with her character's setting.
Altaïr is different from other characters, she knows that she is a created being, and naturally thinks about all kinds of problems because of this.
It's just that Altaïr is now living with her creator, so her worries are more about 'world rejection'.
As in Altaïr's own story, if she uses abilities that transcend the physical laws of the world under normal circumstances, she will be ostracized by the world itself, and thus ejected from the world.
"I don't think you need to worry about this, Miss Altair, because the 'rejection' of the world is only for things that are not reasonable, and my current ability is to make our actions reasonable in this world."
Of course, this is Gu Wu's lie, after all, all this is made by the system, and it is the system that allows the setting to be integrated so that it will not be rejected by the world.
"I understand what you mean, but do you really have the ability to be able to interpret the laws of the world itself? And...... The premise of all of this is that 'the world does not exclude you'. ”
I have to say that Altaïr is also too rigorous......
"Miss Altaïr is saying that you will be rejected by the world before using this bug-like ability, right? But in fact, only when the ability takes effect will it be rejected.,But at the same time as the effect is repulsed.,The setting of this world has been changed by me.,It's not a order of enjoyment.,It's at the same time.。 ”
In fact, Gu Wu didn't know how the system worked at all, but since he had to explain it himself, he would give her an explanation that was a little unclear.
Originally, the system was an unreasonable existence, so Gu Wu himself did not pursue reasonableness, he just wanted the truth, even if the truth hidden by the system was very outrageous, Gu Wu would choose to believe it.
[In response to the host, the means of this system to interfere with the mission world are actually very simple, first of all, the reprogramming of existence, which can turn the consciousness intelligence of the transmitted person into data for several times of analysis and reorganization; Human consciousness is related to the brain, and the cells of the brain record the relevant information of the body, as long as they are all ......]
"Needless to say...... It didn't help telling me that. ”
Seeking an explanation of the laws of physics from a system that does not conform to the laws of physics is obviously a problem with the brain.
"According to my cognition, the 'existence' of the original creature needs to be affirmed by the world before it can be born, which is different from me and Instant to go to the world where you were originally located, after all, you have 'cognition' of us, but now we come to this world as 'strangers' who don't know us at all, even if we modify its original physical laws, will we still exist because of this?"
"Ahem...... Miss Altair, you're thinking too much, this is not a reasonable world, why should you pursue rationality? ”
"I don't mean to pursue rationality in an unreasonable world, I just don't want to be suddenly popped into the unknown by this world, because my ability is not enough to deal with all extreme unexpected situations."
"Then Miss Altaïr can rest assured at this point, I can be sure that the current world has recognized our existence, even if you use your abilities here, you don't have to worry about running into any problems."
Altaïr, who was suspicious, held out her right hand, and a saber appeared in her hand.
The saber was about fifty centimeters long, with a smooth blade and a sharp edge, reflecting the rays of the scorching sun overhead.
"This small-scale use of capacity doesn't have any effect, but we don't know what kind of changes will be caused when large-scale capacity is used."
"It's okay to give it a try now, for example...... Miss Altair, can you use her ability to mobilize some of the seawater in the harbor to extinguish the fire? ”
'Are you stupid?' Senluo does have that ability, but there is no need to do it. ”
Altaïr, who was still worried about the existence of 'repulsive forces' in the world, did not act as Gu Wu said, but ......
"It's okay to try out other capabilities that are a little bit larger. If the world does not 'repair' and 'reject', I will be able to fully use the power of 'Everything'. ”
The saber dissipated into the air in a puff of smoke in Altair's hand, and the silver-haired girl raised her right hand.
She set her eyes on the harbor on her right where the fire had broken out.
"Seventy-first movement, 'Wild Land.'"
Before Altair could finish speaking, a strong wind suddenly blew in the distant harbor that was engulfed in flames, and the howling wind was mixed with the sea water in the nearby harbor!
What can be described as 'wet' winds swept across the loading dock, extinguishing the fire in an instant amid the screams of the people, turning the flames that were about to extend into a small fire.
"Oooh! Isn't that superb? ”
"I really don't feel anything wrong, and it seems that your abilities have an incomparable distraction effect on the world."
Speaking of which, Altaïr approached Gu Wu.
"If you have such a powerful ability, why don't you use it at that time? If you had just told me all about it when you worked with me, you and I wouldn't have to go through so many things, but of course the result was the result I wanted, and I would like to thank you a little bit for that. ”
Altaïr came to the front, and Gu Wu, who smiled bitterly, looked away.
"I didn't have the ability to do that at that time."
Not only that, but the system did not completely let that world accept Gu Wu in that mission.
You must know that when Gu Wu copied and used abilities in the world of "Re:CREATORS", he also encountered rejection from the world.
It seems that it is not only the ability that is copied, but most of the settings outside of the consciousness and body are copied to oneself, so does the system not take a good look at the agent's unique skill of 'copying artist ability'?
In the end, everything is the fault of the system, and even if it is not all the fault of the system, it accounts for two or three percent of the mistakes.
[In response to the host, the world of "Re:CREATORS" is different from the imaginary parameters, and the settings are different, it belongs to the story within the story, and it is quite normal to encounter bugs when integrating and rationalizing skills, after all, this system is not perfect enough to dominate all planes. 】
The system is actually correct when it says so......
The universe is very large and there are many planes, no matter whether the system is mechanical or not, it is impossible for it to solve all problems perfectly, otherwise the meaning of Gu Wu's existence will be gone.
"Don't get me wrong, Miss Altair, I've been there for you from that time to now."
"Don't think of me as the kind of character in the story who improves the so-called favorability for strategy, your support is necessary for me, so I give you help, that's all, there is no other reason."
"To put it simply, it's an equivalent exchange, which is the most reasonable way to trade."
"That's right, you have what I want, I have what you want."
"I want a girlfriend lately!"
Altair frowned, then she looked disgusted.
"You may need to drain your brain, and it's not a good thing to get too much water."
"Miss Altair is really too much......"
"I don't know you guy, but that's not what you're trying to do, right? Isn't the mission to be done in this world a platform to the end for you? ”
Oops, oops, the keen girl is really not easy to get along with.
But on the other hand, the perceptive Altair wouldn't have done anything stupid at the very least.
You must know that in his own world, Altai can beat the existence of multiple protagonists.
It's just that from Gu Wu's point of view, Altaïr is actually a protagonist in the story of "Re:CREATORS", and the others are only the protagonists in the setting, but in fact they are only supporting characters.
"Let's go, find the target."
"Do you have any information? It's not a very large seaside city, but it looks like it's a patchwork of roads, and I don't want to waste my time wandering around unefficiently. ”
Gu Wu said that there was no problem, after all, he was quite familiar with the protagonists, and he remembered what they looked like.
In fact, Gu Wu had wanted to venture into this type of world for a long time, but Gu Wu was very weak at that time, and he knew that if he came to this kind of city alone, he would basically be treated as a lamb.
To be reasonable, Gu Wu has never underestimated the profession of 'traverser'.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, they are already synonymous with "plug-in" and "golden finger", but in the face of a crisis, if you don't gamble everything, you can't overcome the difficulties, and this kind of pressure is not something that ordinary people can bear.
Fortunately, so far, Gu Wu has not encountered that kind of super extreme situation.
"Let me talk about our mission, the content is simple, it is enough to ensure that the target person survives within a week."
"A week, seven days......"
Altaïr seemed to hate working long hours, as she didn't want to be away from Shimazaki for too long.
"What's the matter, Miss Altair......"
"Don't call me that."
"That Altaïr...... Do you think the job is terrible? ”
"It's too long, it would be nice to kill a target, but there are easy ways to do it, just catch the target that needs to be protected and lock it in one place."
Altaïr's proposal made sense, so Gu Wu snapped his fingers.
“OK! Let's kidnap the hero! ”
So Gu Wu began to walk down the slope, intending to gather information.
"Speaking of which...... Hmmm. ”
"No, I'm sorry!"
The young man holding bread and shabby clothes collided with Gu Wu, and he coughed a few times while picking up the bread apologetically.
"I'm so sorry, I'm going to go first......!"
The boy who ran to the back was about to enter the alley when he was stopped by a blade.
The sharp blade stabbed into the walls and the ground, causing the boy to sit on the ground.
"Take your wallet out."
Seeing Altair ask the boy like this, Gu Wu touched his cross-body backpack, and the wallet inside was really missing.
"Terrible little ghost."
"Hmm......"
"Give it back to me."
"Damn ......"
The young man returned the wallet to Gu Wugang and wanted to stand up and leave, but was grabbed by Gu Wu.
", what! I've got a helper! ”
"You seem to know the city well, have you ever heard of the [Black Reef Chamber of Commerce]? I'll give you a little reward if I tell me. ”
"Reward...... I don't know much about that chamber of commerce, but one thing I can tell you is that those guys are on fire right now, and a lot of people want to kill them. ”
It seems to be quite troublesome.
Gu Wu took out a hundred dollars and threw it to the little ghost.
"There really is...... Then I'll give you some information by the way. ”
The young man picked up the bread and pointed at Altair behind Gu Wu.
"With such a beautiful sister, you'll be targeted."
"I see."
Gu Wu, who was laughing, nodded.
"Thank you for your concern."
Now it's time to get to work! As for other issues, Gu Wu is not considering them at the moment.
