Chapter 143: Silent Manhattan
Hu Ye also visited New York when he was in the last world, and lived here for a while, so he still knows a little about this metropolis.
However, the New York Heist and the New York of the Men in Black world are a bustling and wealthy big city, while the New York of the Resident Evil world is completely different.
Not long after the flood waters receded, and before New York fully recovered, the T-virus swept through the city, leaving New York in tatters.
The Red Queen told Hu Ye that the stock exchange on Wall Street has the most developed network system in the world, and that place is the most promising place to connect to the network now.
However, Wall Street is located on the island of Manhattan, and it is not easy to get past it.
The day after tomorrow, the flood severely damaged several bridges in and out of the island, nearly cutting off Manhattan from the outside world. Hu Ye searched for a long time before he found a bridge that was still well preserved.
But even on this bridge, more than half of the deck has collapsed, and the four-lane deck is now barely able to pass through a single truck.
Hu Ye muttered to himself: "I hope the bridge can hold up, otherwise I will have to swim to the island." ”
Speaking from his heart, Hu Ye was very reluctant to go into the water. In this T-virus-infested world, God knows what's in the water, so it's better not to risk it.
Hu Ye slowly drove onto the bridge, and soon reached the narrowest part of the bridge. He drove the van cautiously, passing through the danger zone at about the same speed as he could on foot.
The damaged bridge creaked under the weight of the trucks, and Hu Ye could clearly feel the steel beams sinking slightly. Looking out the window of the car is the rough Hudson River, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the river.
"Be steady!" Hu Ye secretly reminded himself that he was driving forward almost inch by inch.
The quality of the bridge is not bad, even though it looks crumbling, but it still holds up the weight of the trucks. Hu Ye quickly drove past the narrowest section, and as long as he drove more than ten meters further, it was safe.
However, before Hu Ye could breathe a sigh of relief, the abnormal noise suddenly became louder, and the bridge deck was obviously sunken. He immediately knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly stepped on the floor oil.
The engine roared, and the truck sped forward. Hu Ye seized the best time to change gears, so that the truck maintained the best acceleration performance, and finally drove to a relatively wide bridge deck.
Even so, Hu Ye didn't dare to be careless, and continued to accelerate and rush towards the other end of the bridge. The trucks were moving fast all the way, while the bridge deck was crumbling behind. In the end, Hu Ye was lucky enough to drive the car to the other end of the bridge, and behind him, the bridge deck dozens of meters long had disappeared.
As long as Hu Ye hesitated a little at that time, and now he and the truck have fallen into the river like the bridge, it is difficult to say what will happen.
Hu Ye stopped the car and looked back, and saw that the entire bridge was almost gone, and he couldn't help but be a little afraid.
Fortunately, everyone and the car were safe and sound, so Hu Ye drove to Wall Street to find a place where the red queen could surf the Internet.
There are many cars parked all over the street, a post-apocalyptic scene. Hu Ye drove through the deserted streets, and when he encountered a vehicle in the way, he directly hit a road and drove unhurriedly towards Wall Street.
After driving a few intersections, Hu Ye felt that something was wrong. He has been on the island for a while, and he has made a lot of noise, and it is really strange that he hasn't even seen a zombie.
Manhattan Island has a large population, it is impossible not to even have a zombie, there must be something strange in this, Hu Ye couldn't help but be more vigilant.
But vigilance is vigilance, Hu Ye is not afraid. is different from the last time he came to this world, Hu Ye's strength has increased greatly now, and he is no longer the weak otaku he was back then. As long as you are careful, there is not much danger.
It didn't take long for Hu Ye to drive to Wall Street, and the Federal Reserve building was already in sight. When Hu Ye was in the last world, he made a lot of money here, but now that the truck and dimensional space were already full of various materials, he could only dispel the idea of getting some gold again.
Hu Ye parked the car in front of the New York Stock Exchange, took the assault rifle in his hand, and slowly walked in.
The stock exchange has long been empty, and the trading vouchers all over the place tell the story of the past. Hu Ye made a general inspection and made sure that there was no danger here, so he began to look for an interface that could connect to the Internet.
The red queen was right, it didn't take long for Hu Ye to find a working network cable. He connected the network cable to the computer and asked the red queen to find the whereabouts of Jill and the others.
The image of the red queen soon appeared on the screen, and she smiled charmingly at Hu Ye: "I entered the network of the umbrella company first, they must be tracking Alice, and they should be able to find them...... Hey! ”
Seeing the look of surprise behind Hong, Hu Ye hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Nothing." The red queen made a pretty face and said: "The umbrella company has a new host system, and they have found a replacement system for me so quickly, they must have wanted to replace me a long time ago!" Hmph, the new system is actually called the black queen, okay, then let's see who is more powerful in the red queen or the black queen! ”
The reaction of the red queen made Hu Ye laugh dumbly, and he couldn't help but complain: "If you are allowed to sneak away, don't you allow others to develop an alternative system?" You're becoming more and more like a real person, well, even the characteristics of being petty are exactly the same as many women! ”
The red queen threw a wink at Hu Ye and said, "Master, are you complimenting others?" ”
Hu Ye Zhengse said: "Don't talk about these things first, the host of the umbrella company is definitely stronger than my laptop, can you control their network?" ”
"This kind of trivial thing can't bother me!" The Red Queen confidently straightened up her full chest and said: "I have optimized the program kernel with an alien computer, no matter how powerful the other party's host is, it can't escape the palm of my hand, just wait a while......"
Speaking of this, the image of the red queen suddenly shook and blurred, which was a manifestation of her computer computing power to the extreme, which also made Hu Ye a little worried.
However, the image of the red queen quickly stabilized, and said to Hu Ye with a smile: "It's done, although only a part of the system is controlled, it is enough to find Alice and them." But...... Now the world's networks are badly damaged, and it will probably take a little time, maybe four or five days, to find them. ”
Knowing that there was no way to do this, Hu Ye nodded and said, "You try to hurry up as much as possible, I will take this opportunity to walk around, find something valuable to bring back to the main world, and make start-up capital for our company." ”
The red queen smiled happily: "It turns out that you have always taken our company to heart, go quickly, the more valuable things the better!" ”
Hu Ye shook his head with a smile and left the stock exchange to look for loot.
