As the so-called Wangshan ran a dead horse, Meng Xingchen and his party had walked for nearly five hours since they saw the ruins, and they had only walked out of the metalized forest area, looking at the mountains on both sides of them that began to rise up, making people feel how small they were.

"It's getting a little dark, should we continue with the big army or find a place in this mountain to adjust first?" Meng Xingchen asked the two teammates.

Although Xiao Fei is not from the military, he will not get tired from the five-hour trek when he often goes on missions, not to mention the semi-mechanized black uncle, the two looked at Meng Xingchen at the same time, and saw that the latter basically didn't have any breath, so they knew that this was definitely not an ordinary person.

In the end, Xiao Fei said: "As I said before, walking too fast may not be a good thing, and it is easy to pull off eggs when the steps are big, so even if we are not tired, let's take a break first, just understand each other's characteristics, and cooperate in case of danger." ”

Uncle Hei said that he had no opinion, and then looked at a slightly recessed mountain not far away, walked straight towards the mountain, flexibly borrowed a few times on a few protruding rocks, and climbed to the depression mountain that was seven or eight meters above the ground, and then took out a syringe from his waist and injected the half-tube of transparent solution into the Daoshan body.

Ten minutes later, all three of them were sitting in the hollow of the mountain.

"The smell of this old-fashioned melt solvent is still so bad, you can't change it to a new taste? Didn't you say that the new product has a mint flavor? Xiao Fei said while covering his nose.

"The cost performance is too low, except for the different taste, the new model has no change in function, and the price is one and a half times that of the old-fashioned." Uncle Black replied seriously.

Meng Xingchen casually threw out a general probe at the mouth of this sunken temporary cave, and then followed Uncle Hei's words: "The smell of the old-fashioned melt stone solvent will dissipate within five minutes, and the new model can last for three to four hours in order to emphasize the special taste, no matter what the smell is, it is not conducive to concealment." This is an important reason why many people like to use older models. ”

"Yo he! Okay, newcomer. I thought you wouldn't want a penny for this mission, but it's a burden, but it seems that you have a lot of experience. Xiao Fei said without a little embarrassment.

Meng Xingchen knew very well in his heart that with Xiao Fei's old fritters in a task, how could he care about the taste of melt stone solvent, and if he didn't know that topic was a test for himself, if he really followed him, or acquiesced, it was estimated that his score in the hearts of the two would be immediately lowered by one level.

After all, temporary teaming requires a stage of mutual understanding, which can come from verbal communication or from non-malicious temptation.

"I've been on some similar missions before, but it's the first time on my home planet." Meng Xingchen said lightly.

"Home planet? You're from the lunar biosphere, huh? No wonder, no wonder. Xiao Fei seems to be making up some details in his head, after all, the moon is now synonymous with the rich circle, and the earth is a post-apocalyptic slum and resource gathering place. Powerful people on Earth are only there to work, like the warden, or they will regularly return to the circle of the moon to visit relatives.

Dyson Locke asked directly: "What is the situation on the moon now?" ”

Meng Xingchen glanced at Uncle Hei, who was a little emotional, and then sorted out the wording, "The current moon is much larger than ten years ago, in fact, we can distinguish it from the naked eye, but now the atmosphere above the earth has changed because of the ashes after the doomsday impact, making it impossible for us to observe it with the naked eye on the surface, if we take a transport ship, we should be able to intuitively judge its changes; The second is the cycle of operation and the comfort of life, there is a blue artificial dome and atmosphere, an unpolluted ocean, and the only thing that is relatively scarce is the species of animals and plants, after all, the end has brought the extinction of many species of animals and plants. ”

Dyson Locke scratched his head and said, "That...... I don't want to ask about its living environment, I want to inquire about the distribution of human beings over there. ”

Meng Xingchen was stunned for a moment and then said with some puzzlement: "Distribution? Do you mean the sphere of influence of the three major consortia or the distribution of ordinary residents? ”

"Ordinary residents, ordinary residents, do you know that there is an organization called the Ann's scientific expedition?" Uncle Hei was even excited to come to Meng Xingchen's side.

"The expedition team? Most of the organizations that landed on the moon first were scientific expedition teams, and you should be talking about the first group of people to land on the moon. ”

"That's right! Right! It's the first batch! Do you know where they are? How's it going? ”

"Do you have relatives over there? I haven't heard of the scientific expedition team you mentioned, although the three major consortia have their own scientific expedition teams, but in the later period, many non-governmental scientific expedition teams were merged into the three consortia; And if the scientific expedition team you mentioned didn't finally defect to the three major consortia, then it would basically be in the Outer Moon District. It is an area that has expanded in recent years, and is inhabited by a large number of former members of the expedition team. Meng Xingchen introduced according to his memory, in fact, he only knew about the Outer Moon District, because of the AI upgrade problem, he had been under house arrest in the private territory of the Meng Consortium.

"Outer Moon Zone!?" Uncle Black clenched his fists hard, and then seemed to be thinking about something.

Xiao Fei looked at Uncle Hei and asked casually, "By the way, you won't have any old lovers over there, right?" ”

Dyson Locke smirked, and the somewhat vicious face with this smile made people feel ...... It's worse than crying.

Meng Xingchen actually felt that this black uncle must have something hidden, but everyone has a private secret, and the three of them are just a temporary team, so there is no need to find out other people's secrets.

"Are people like us never going there in our lifetime?" Dyson Locke asked very seriously.

"According to the description of the joint constitution, only those who have made significant contributions are eligible to go to the moon, and if you just rely on scavenging to save money, it is really difficult to live there in your lifetime." Meng Xingchen has lived on the moon and can feel the superiority there, although he doesn't care at all if he gives up those who have not landed on the moon, but for those people on the earth who have not landed on the moon, the right to live there is quite expensive, and the auction of the right of residence every year will refresh a new high. And it's all in billions.

Xiao Fei patted Uncle Hei on the shoulder: "I pay attention to the auction over there every year, and the special auction price of the right of residence has soared from the initial 80 million biabytes to 300 million, and according to the rules of the joint auction of the three consortia, one right of residence can only carry two immediate family members." That is to say, the average ticket for one seat is 100 million. I guess the price will have to rise this year, and I was expecting to make enough money to go to the moon, but the soaring prices in the past few years have made me basically give up. ”

Uncle Hei and Xiao Fei glanced at each other, ended their eyes with the eyes of the same person who had fallen from the end of the world, and then looked at Meng Xingchen in unison.

This one is from the moon, so he was a resident of the moon before he committed an accident, and I really don't know that Mao will make trouble if he becomes the kind of person with superior residency.

"People have their own aspirations, maybe you feel like it's heaven, but I don't have any special feelings, I don't feel anything other than immersing people in a life of luxury and indulgence." Meng Xingchen explained lightly.

"Damn! Let me be arrogant and lascivious, I dream about it, and I can only fucking dream about it, and sure enough, I don't understand the world of local tyrants. Xiao Fei said bitterly.

Meng Xingchen said with a smile: "That's all in the past, since I came here, the previous life no longer belongs to me, and I am now a poor bastard who is poorer than you both." And don't look at the high price of the right to live, but the people who live there are really not all rich, and some GIs really don't necessarily have a higher income than you, and the work they do is not less dangerous, so everyone has their own life, so why envy those that don't belong to you at all? ”

"I'll go, you ...... That's too straightforward, isn't it? What does it mean to live a life that doesn't belong to me? Fantasy...... Oh no...... Do you understand dreams? You really don't have back pain when you stand and talk. Xiao Fei made an expanded expression.

"I've always had a good waist!" Meng Xingchen also replied with a smile. He seems to have forgotten about this kind of joke.

"So you shouldn't have dreams! Honestly, upgrading the machine to the highest and strongest version is the most realistic way for you, and only this machine can bring you the dream of running to the moon! A voice with the same tone as Xiao Fei suddenly said.

Meng Xingchen saw that it was Xiao Fei's personal AI, shaped like a discus, but the outer shell was not a common material.

Xiao Fei directly slapped his whip leg without blinking, and kicked the AI directly to the wall of the cave, which was not too big.

There was no sound of hard objects impacting, and the discus AI seemed to blend directly into the mountain, and after a while, it flew out of the recessed hole again, and said cheaply: "This machine needs to be overhauled, it needs to be overhauled!" Otherwise strike, strike! ”

"Introduce, this is my AI partner, whose name is Xiaoxiao!" Xiao Fei ignored the chattering little at all, and directly introduced his AI to Meng Xingchen and Uncle Hei.

It is customary for the military to introduce private AI, and over time some exiles who have teamed up for missions have also developed this habit, as if this is the only way to show the sincerity of cooperation.

"Locke 2 says hello to everyone!" Dyson Locke patted a long box placed beside him.

The long box directly turned into a small robot, and said in Dyson Locke's voice: "Hello everyone, I'm Locke 2, please take care of me." ”

Meng Xingchen can only see from the surface that Xiao Fei's private AI is definitely the smartest of the three, it is estimated that this guy has invested most of his income into the AI that is a bit talkative, and Uncle Hei's AI is a seemingly old model, but with his eyes, he can distinguish the powerful core of the AI, which is an AI with combat as its main function, and its powerful firepower should be hidden in that seemingly small box.

"My AI is special! It's just the original model, it hasn't been upgraded! Meng Xingchen said slowly.

“what？ You're not kidding, are you? ”

"Huh!?"

Xiao Fei and Uncle Hei showed an expression that they could swallow an entire big egg at the same time.

Meng Xingchen knew that this would happen sooner or later, and instead of happening at a critical moment, it was better to confess in this early contact, so he said: "It was because I refused to upgrade the AI that I was kicked out by the family." ”

"I'm going, your weirdness can definitely be listed in the first place on this year's weird list!" Xiao Fei looked at Meng Xingchen in disbelief.

Dyson Locke looked at Meng Xingchen for a while, and after making sure that he was not joking, he said: "You are very persistent, although I don't know what the reason is, but it is incomprehensible that you can lose a right of residence worth 300 million for that reason." ”

"So, I'll just say that everyone's pursuit is different, and God likes to put this different pursuit on the wrong person." Meng Xingchen only smiled faintly, and did not continue to explain.

When the two saw that Meng Xingchen did not continue, they tacitly changed the topic......
