Chapter 21: Grumpy
Half of the middle floor area is military area, and the other half is living area, which is basically the consumption area of the entire shelter.
Although it is underground, due to the particularity of the shelter itself, the highest building here has more than a dozen floors, and the temperature here is very suitable for people without a regulator.
"The consumption here is the highest in the Abyss Shelter, compared to those consumption areas on the periphery, the price here is several times or even more than ten times that over there, here you may see some real vegetables, which should be transported from the moon, I have to say that the merchants here have a very good way, and they can always get something that the shelter itself does not have." Su Qing skillfully led Meng Xingchen through two rows of tall buildings, and then came to a neon-colored house.
"There are hundreds of genetically modified beauties here, you name it. I've made a note of the advice you gave me today, and I can't measure the value in terms of specific pejas, but I know it's definitely a lot more efficient than we're doing right now, and I know you have a bunch of suggestions, right? So I'll cover all your consumption here today, as long as you can play, I'll cover as many beauties as you want. Su Qing said as he took the lead and walked directly towards the gate of the building with ambiguous lights.
"Hey! Feed! Feed! Wait, wait. I didn't say what beautiful women I'm looking for, right? Have you listened to me? ”
Don't look at Meng Xingchen's sometimes flowery mouth, in fact, except for Nina, he really hasn't had intimate contact with the second opposite sex, even if Nina only had a few indulgences during the secret training, and the two didn't even have the opportunity to meet after the secret training.
Su Qing seemed to be a frequent visitor here, and when she took off her trench coat, two bewitching-looking and tall women greeted her, and after the three of them chatted a few words, one of them walked straight towards Meng Xingchen.
As soon as Meng Xingchen entered here, he already felt the atmosphere of the beautiful women that Su Qing said, it can be said that the service staff here are very pleasing to the eyes and good-looking, the handsome men are neutral, and the women are all hot and beautiful, although everyone has their own characteristics, but no matter what kind of people want to continue to stop after taking a look.
But it is precisely this slightly disobedient feeling that shows that these people are formed after special genetic modification.
This relatively basic protein synthesis gene is already very common on the moon, but it seems that after a gust of wind, most people have stopped this kind of modification, and everyone is more inclined to their own appearance and posture, after all, after having disease resistance genes, most people will no longer get sick because of physical problems, as for appearance, special ones will leave an impression.
Only those who are professionally engaged in the service industry will regularly inject this protein synthesis gene to change their appearance and posture.
Soon Su Qing and Meng Xingchen were arranged in a three-story private room, and six beauties appeared in the room.
"Well, did you misunderstand what I meant? Or maybe I'm misunderstanding you! "Meng Xingchen has a feeling of being forcibly pulled to consume since he entered here.
Su Qing stared at Meng Xingchen for a long time before waving his hand at the six beauties and motioning for them all to go out, before he said, "Don't like man-made ones?" ”
"Let's stop making a fuss, shall we? I'm not here for entertainment, if I want to have fun, I just obey the arrangement of the consortium, and it's no problem to live on the belly of a beautiful woman every day, so why bother to return to the harsh living conditions of the home planet. Meng Xingchen said with some tears and laughter.
Su Qing looked out the window, then leaned against the window and said, "My apartment is arranged by the shelter, and it seems to be safe, but it will still be monitored by the shelter, and this is the area that the entire shelter cannot monitor." ”
Meng Xingchen's heart moved, and he immediately reacted to Su Qing's series of performances, this girl is simply an actor! I believe in everything she does.
"I won't talk to you about her for the time being, I'll tell you when the time is right, now tell me what you want to know. Survival Race or Project Starship? Su Qing said lightly.
"Will anyone be watching you there? How do you say you're the captain of the Grim Reaper team? "Meng Xingchen didn't even understand the management mechanism of the Abyss Shelter, it was said that someone like Su Qing should be included in the absolute trust level.
"Yin Jun is at the same level as me, but he will be included in the high-level core, and I have been blocked from the periphery, and others feel that I have entered the core, but I know that people born on the day of the end will never become high-level decision-makers in the shelter." Su Qing looked back at Meng Xingchen and said word for word.
Born on the day of the end of the day? Meng Xingchen finally knew what the problem was!
I was also born that day, so think about the high-level within the three major consortia, there is indeed a younger generation, but none of them were really born on the day of the end of the day, Nina is relatively famous, but compared with the real high-level decision-makers, she is just a puppet hero who is pushed in front of the stage, and even has to go to the front line to fight in person, and how many of the real high-level are on the battlefield?
"I thought you knew more than I did? It turned out to be not as good as me! Su Qing turned his gaze outside with some disappointment, looked at the people coming and going on the street, and continued: "People born on the day of the end have an innate ability, an ability that can occasionally make the mind pass through, so that they can hear some sounds, have some strange dreams, and have some inexplicable inspirations. ”
"That's right! But as the AI is upgraded, this will gradually disappear. Meng Xingchen said.
Su Qing shook his head and said, "That will only happen on your moon, let me tell you why this is the case!" That's because whether it's that voice or a strange dream, it affects your brain waves through a fixed frequency of superwaves, and the AI will emit this superwave, and so can the host of the shelter! ”
"What?" Meng Xingchen seemed to hear an incredible answer.
"Yes, you heard it right! My AI has been upgraded, and it has indeed lost that ability, and while I can't explain why this is happening, I haven't lost the ability to hear that sound, and in the entire Abyss Shelter, the place where I can sense that superwave is here - the Abyss Red Light District! Shelter where military forces will not monitor and interfere. Su Qing pointed to his feet.
Meng Xingchen narrowed his eyes, which meant that his brain was running at a high speed, which was almost comparable to the operation of a terminal computer, which was also one of his gifts after genetic modification!
In just a dozen seconds, he sorted out a series of questions and answers, and then nodded: "I understand, this kind of hyperwave is only available in the shelter before the apocalypse, which means that the shelter on the moon has lost its true meaning, and the consortium has transformed its own shelter and let it fly to the moon to open up the wasteland, and this act directly obliterates the ability of the shelter, and although this ability itself is unique to the shelter, it is not recognized by the main program of the shelter, as if it is a virus, Only camouflage and hide! ”
"It's more like a bug, but the carrier of this bug is people like us who were born on the day of the apocalypse, and others don't feel anything. And I don't usually come here with my AI. Su Qing signaled that he did not bring his own private AI.
Meng Xingchen took out the AI that had turned into bricks from his pocket, and then asked, "How did you find out?" And when did you start to doubt AI? ”
"I knew all this the moment my weapon was formed, as for the problem of doubting AI, it's not just you and me who will doubt it, many people in the shelter don't have private AI, in fact, it's not all because they don't have that opportunity, some people give up voluntarily, although AI has given us a lot of help, but there are still people who think that it may counter control humans." Su Qing could talk without taboos here, so she didn't mind sharing this with Meng Xingchen.
Meng Xingchen thought for a moment and then continued to ask, "Do you know who made that sound?" ”
"The voice you hear and the voice I hear may not be the same, because the shelter is different, its sound is different, at first I guessed that the sound should be the voice of the shelter host, but because the current host will actively block that sound, so in the end I think it is the voice of a hidden program implanted by the host, as for who it is, I haven't found out yet, and there is no relevant information, but I'm sure that the level of that voice can only be higher than that of the shelter host, Otherwise, the wisdom of the host will never allow the existence of such a bug. Su Qing even said his own guess this time.
After digesting this information, Meng Xingchen decided to talk about some other topics first, because no matter how in-depth this topic is, it is just a conjecture of two people, and there is no actual theory to support it at all. So he continued to ask, "Who else is like us?" ”
"Originally, there were two people who had been in contact with me in Shelter Zero, but they suddenly lost contact with each other six months ago, and there were originally more than a dozen people like us, but in just a few years, almost all of them have lost contact, and the number of deaths I can determine is only six, and the causes of death are different, so there is no inevitable connection. After all, if there is a war, people will die, and people like us are just slightly stronger in combat effectiveness, and even some people do not take the combat route, and the possibility of dying is even greater. Su Qing also felt a little powerless, after all, these news could not be easily shared with others, and only people of the same kind like Meng Xingchen could say it.
"Could it be that the host of the shelter has taken some measures? While it's unlikely that AI will kill people directly, it's still convenient to use human hands to do this. Meng Xingchen gave a conjecture.
"I think so too, but there's no evidence! At least in the Abyss Shelter, no one has made a move on me yet, and there is no news of anything like that. And people like me here, except for Xiao Fei, there are only two other people who have died, and the cause of death of those two people is because of lack of resources and lack of genetic medicine, and Xiao Fei also left the shelter for this reason. Maybe we are really the bugs of this world, rejected by the world! Su Qing said slowly.
Now Su Qing is still very depressed about his situation, and there are fewer and fewer people around him who can share secrets! This is also the main reason why she and Meng Xingchen can talk so much when they first know each other.
