Without the presence of humans, the city's sewers were quickly clogged and rendered useless, causing Luo Xu to see that the ground was full of swamps formed by stagnant water. There were no humans to deal with the weeds, the ground was covered with topsoil, covered with moss, lichens, dandelions and other plants, and the crevices of the major buildings were also crawling with vines, and on the left hand side of Luo Xu, a large group of stinky trees covered the parking lot that should have existed.

Such a scene, although I have seen it from the images that have been transmitted back a long time ago, but when I saw it with my own eyes, Luo Xu couldn't help but feel a huge shock in his heart, the collision of nature and civilization, under the choice of time, nature has already gained the upper hand, if it is not for his arrival, maybe in a few decades, the city of Los Angeles will be completely annihilated in the sea of plants.

The two K500 electronic eyes flashed with red light, and after scanning the surroundings to make sure that there was no danger, they came to Luo Xu with electromagnetic rifles and stood behind them. Luo Xu took off his helmet and took a deep breath, an indescribable freshness filled his lungs, and he only felt refreshed, and his tired expression was reduced a lot. In the 40s, when humans were already using electric vehicles to reduce their pollution to the atmosphere, and with the disappearance of humans for more than 20 years, the air quality in Los Angeles has become very good, with a moist and fresh smell.

Luo Xu wears a wireless headset with a titanium shell in his left ear, and a bracket is extended and bent to the top of his left eye, so that Bob can project information such as data maps onto his retina, and in terms of clarity and function, the pioneer he made himself is like a toy.

“nbeaudryave”

The blue map information appeared dozens of centimeters away from his line of sight, and compared with the map, Luo Xu found that the scene of the street in front of him was almost unrecognizable, and the houses where the residents on both sides of the street seemed too [***] deserted. And a few kilometers in the distance in front of his line of sight, the towering buildings were obscured by some dense fog, Luo Xu stared without saying a word, always feeling that such a scene had never been seen anywhere.

After thinking about it, the memory did not reappear, Luo Xu stepped on the wet soil, and walked towards the residence of the resident next to him, this is the residence of the American middle class, and the exterior decoration of the house looks very beautiful, but unfortunately in the case of no one to manage, after the erosion of time, the villa-style house is in danger, revealing the smell of decay and dampness from the inside and outside.

So when Luo Xu stepped over the weeds in front of the house and came to the door, he was still a little worried about whether the house would collapse suddenly, with this idea, he decided not to take the risk impulsively, but ordered a K500 to go in and check it first.

Although K500 has autonomous AI, it obviously doesn't have a trace of color, and he didn't hesitate to obey Luo Xu's order, directly stretched out his arm to blow the door lock, strode in, and disappeared into the darkness. Luo Xu lit a cigarette and stood outside the door waiting for K500 to return, before a cigarette was finished, K500's flickering red light electronic eyes lit up in the dark room, and the robot carrying a powerful weapon walked out of the room.

"Sir, no active creatures found."

K500's Chinese voice is even more strange than Bob's, in the mechanical synthetic electronic sound, there is no sense of ** color, cold and very ugly, Luo Xu considered whether to change the robot to a Chinese voice library, otherwise this taste sounds strange and cold.

The results of the K500 report did not surprise Luo Xu, he waved his hand, turned around and walked back to the center of the street, his heart moved, he couldn't help but be happy, judging from the current signs, human beings do not know what kind of disaster they encountered and disappeared without a trace, that is to say, those jewels and gold may still be preserved in all corners of the city? How much gold is in this Los Angeles, nay, the entire United States?

Luo Xu, who also wanted to buy and sell pioneers to accumulate raw funds at the beginning, was overjoyed, with this gold, there was no need to be so troublesome at all.

"But the selling channel of gold is also a problem."

Luo Xu's expression calmed down, the sale of tons of gold will inevitably attract the attention of the people concerned, if he sells hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gold, it is fine, but if he dares to sell dozens of tons or hundreds of tons of gold, not to mention whether there is anyone to eat, even if someone eats, in China, this person must be a political axe. And it is also conceivable that China's gold reserves are only more than 1,050 tons, and the impact of a short sale of 100 tons of gold on the gold market is as striking as someone running naked in a square.

"Well, how about Yanjing's underground gold trading market? Alas, forget it, let's take the long view. ”

Leaving these troubled thoughts behind, Luo Xu continued to stroll to avoid the swamp and water, check for clues, and finally in a cold and damp white villa, Luo Xu had a flash of inspiration, walked to the side of the abandoned family entertainment center Xbox Zero box, picked up a laser pointer to cut through the outer layer of metal, and reached out to pull out the memory in the line.

This storage unit is composed of square quartz glass with a side length of 2 cm and a thickness of about one millimeter, reading data through the laser action point on the quartz glass, which can save 20TB data per square inch, and most importantly, this quartz glass storage unit will not destroy the stored data information even if it is at a high temperature of 1000 degrees Celsius for several hours, not only can it be protected from high temperature, but also against radiation, water, and various chemicals, and it can save data for more than 100 million years in harsh environments.

So when Luo Xu thought of this, he quickly took out the storage unit and threw it to the K500 robot next to him. The K500 has a variety of compatible sockets, took the quartz glass piece thrown by Luo Xu, and inserted it into the open arm armor socket.

Luo Xu stood motionless, the virtual screen in his left eye began to flash the information read from K500, the reason why he chose XboxZero, is because it is not only the entertainment center of the family, but also participates in the management of various devices in the family, and is also connected to the wide area Internet of Things, so its storage unit must store a lot of information about the Internet.

Games, Songs, Movies, Contacts, Notes...... The miscellaneous information was swept by Luo Xu at a glance, but he didn't find the information he needed to be useful, and seeing that it stored a full 10TB of information, he immediately chose to give up and prepared to return to the base for Bob to see.

This episode also reminded Luo Xu that without human maintenance, although most of the Internet mainline cables around the world may be damaged, and the quantum relay stations are not optimistic, the network data stored in Internet data centers all over the world will not disappear! Those power-hungry data centers are the confluence of local, national, and global multi-layered fiber optic cables, where each carrier's servers, data storage, and network equipment are eventually connected by cables, and if you can find any clues, you may find something there.

"Bob, tell me where is the network data center in the United States?"

"Building ...... at 60 Hudson Street, New York City"

"...... on the banks of the Columbia River, Dalles, Oregon"

"North Carolina iDataCenter ......"

"Prineville, Oregon......"

"WJ, NJ NJ2 Data Center ......"

"Oh my God, so much?" A drop of cold sweat ran down Luo Xu's forehead, causing him to hurriedly shout, "Wait, is there one in Los Angeles?" ”

Bob was silent for a moment: "Castech, 40.7 miles from here, has Google's No. 27 data center ......"

Luo Xu counted with his fingers, and the distance of 65 kilometers could be reached in minutes, and he was not in a hurry. With that in mind, he turned around and walked back to the Neuron fighter, returned to the cockpit and ordered to take off, going straight to downtown Los Angeles to have a look.

Although Los Angeles is very large, there is no difference between near and far in the face of the speed of the fighter, they all sit on it, stretch their shoulders, and prepare to get off the plane, so in less than half a minute, Luo Xu stepped on the land in the center of the city.

The arrival of the fighter plane obviously disturbed the gray wolf who was catching the elk, and they were in groups of three or four, carefully hiding hundreds of meters away from the fighter, looking in fear at the two warplanes that came with a rumbling sound.

"Hey, there's a wolf?"

Luo Xu was interested, flicked his fingers and made a "pop" sound, and the K500 on the side handed the electromagnetic rifle to Luo Xu very interestingly.

On this electromagnetic rifle numbered PZ2034, there is an electron-optical sight, which can magnify the distant image by 40 times with 20x optical zoom.

The gray wolf in the distance dodged and dodged, and kept retreating into the distance, it was already seven or eight hundred meters away from Luo Xu, and ordinary people were almost some small black dots, where to see what it was. But in Luo Xu's eyes, those gray wolves seemed to be more than ten meters away, and the curled hairs on their bodies were clearly visible, which did not affect his aiming at all.

"Whew!"

The EMP-gun bullet fired without the loud sound of a gunpowder weapon, leaving only a sharp sound and a ripple in the muzzle caused by the rapid speed of the bullet, which tore through the air.

The special armor-piercing bullet burst through the layers of obstructed air in an instant, and instantly bombarded the waist of a gray wolf across a distance of more than 800 meters, like Mars hitting the earth, and the terrifying kinetic energy caused a huge destructive effect as soon as it touched the gray wolf's skin, directly tearing and annihilating the gray wolf's waist, leaving only the head and tail buttocks that flew out to spill a large piece of flesh and blood.

As far as this was concerned, the armor-piercing bullet did not stop from this, and continued to explode after passing through the gray wolf's waist, and disappeared into the wet earth with a rain of blood.

"My mother, this gun is powerful enough!"

Luo Xu couldn't put it down, although the gun was a bit heavy and a little big, but its excellent surname was definitely enough to be praised, even he a novice could shoot successfully at a distance of seven or eight hundred meters, and replace it with a robot? That's not a 100-shot shot! What is 1,000 or 2,000 meters, and 3,000 meters can kill the enemy!

Returning the gun to the K500, Luo Xu walked under the towering building, and couldn't help but sigh at the great power of human science and technology, although individual people are very weak, but once they are gathered to exert collective wisdom, they will form an earth-shattering force, this power called science and technology, even God will change color in front of it!
