After living in the slum for several years, Hong Yi only knew that his neighbor's surname was Li, and others called him Lao Li, so Hong Yi also called him that.

After the Wang family's father and daughter and Yuan Shijie left, Lao Li first found an orthopedic surgeon who did not have a medical license to help Hong Yi's dislocated arm be connected, and then took out a small bottle of treatment spray to stop Hong Yi's head from bleeding. The price of this treatment spray is not cheap, a bottle costs fifty or sixty Singapore dollars, but Lao Li did not hesitate to use it, which made Hong Yi feel indebted to the other party, not to mention that Lao Li's house was also damaged by himself.

Lao Li is obviously a person from the past, and said to Hong Yi that there is forbearance for a while, and no matter how big the wind and waves are, he can endure it, Hong Yi smiled and shook his head.

Other things can be endured, but today's things can't.

That adjutant has a special meaning, and it is also the only thing that his father left for him, and he must take it back.

However, the other party has spent so much trouble to definitely not be just an old adjutant brain, the Wang family lives in a rich area, even if they want to buy the latest type of adjutant brain, there is no problem, so why do they want to plot their own adjutant brain?

There must be something hidden in this that I don't know.

Perhaps, it has something to do with his father, Hong Yi can't figure out the key, the lieutenant Zhibrain has been in his hands for several years, it can be said that he is very familiar, and he has not found any secrets hidden in it.

If you can't figure it out, you won't want to think about it for the time being.

The mechanical dog was smashed, Hong Yi checked it, but he was relieved, because he found that the damage to the core components was not serious, as long as the broken parts were replaced.

Lao Li, a professional mechanical worker, came over to help take a look and told Hong Yi that it didn't matter, he also had some parts at home that could be used, so he helped Hong Yi repair them together.

"The person named Yuan Shijie just now is definitely an idiot, the places he smashed are all inconsequential parts, which can be easily repaired, if it were me, I would definitely destroy the control system and battery components first!" Lao Li said with a smile.

Lao Li's craftsmanship didn't say, he mixed better than Hong Yi in the slums, people have jobs, assembling mechanical dogs and robots in the machinery factory, removing the damaged external parts and replacing them with new ones, this mechanical dog is repaired, and some parts are better than what Hong Yi found from the garbage heap.

Afterwards, Hong Yi insisted on giving Lao Li money, after all, the parts that were replaced were worth a lot, and there were also broken through Lao Li's walls, even if he repaired it himself, it would take a lot of effort. But Lao Li waved his hand and said that he had a job and could earn a thousand Singapore dollars a month, while Hong Yi himself did not have a job, he just relied on picking up garbage to live, it was not easy, he had been a neighbor for several years, and it was nothing to help with this, if he really wanted to thank him, just invite him to a meal.

Hong Yi didn't insist on it, but his heart was warm and he wrote down Lao Li's favor.

After seeing the mechanical dog assembled by Hong Yi himself, and writing the control program by himself, Lao Li asked Hong Yi if he was willing to go to work in the factory, and his relationship with the foreman of the factory was okay and he could say two sentences.

Hong Yi shook his head, he had already found a job to find, the skills of assembling machinery and programming were taught to him by his father, and it was not difficult for Hong Yi to find a relatively stable job with this ability.

And the reason why he didn't look for it was because Hong Yi was unwilling to live like this.

The disappearance of his father has always been a thorn in Hong Yi's heart, although the disappearance after leaving the gathering place is equivalent to death, but Hong Yi does not believe that his father died like this, he wants to find his father.

Finding a job in the slums, getting up early every day and being oppressed by the gang of guys in the rich area, never getting ahead, this kind of life is not what Hong Yi wants. Save money to assemble a mechanical dog, Hong Yi plans to rely on this mechanical dog to earn his first pot of gold, change his fate, and strengthen himself, so that he is qualified to do what he wants to do.

……

Gathering No. 7, slum.

Hong Yi is holding a controller in his hand, much like a gamepad, which can control all the actions of the mechanical dog within a range of fifty meters.

Beside Hong Yi, he followed a mechanical dog, and with the help of Lao Li, the mechanical dog had been repaired and successfully started. This mechanical dog is more than two meters long, with an all-metal structure, and the weapon is alloy claws and alloy teeth, Hong Yi has done a test, even if it is a log about the same thickness as an adult's waist, it can be bitten and smashed with only two clicks.

The claw force of this mechanical dog is more than 400 kilograms, and the bite force is even more than 1,200 kilograms.

There are also stores for mechanical dogs and robots in the slums, and the price of a mechanical dog of this size is more than S$36,000, and of course, it is also a hand-controlled type, and if it is the kind of intelligent program control, it can move and attack freely according to human commands, and the price will be at least five times greater.

If it's a robot, it's even more expensive.

Money is very important in the human world, it represents wealth, status, education and protection that you enjoy, and there are millions of poor people living in the slums of Gathering No. 7, which may be between four million and five million, or more, while the people in the rich areas are less than 100,000.

Every slum wants to live in a more comfortable and safe rich area, and the government does not prohibit the poor from applying to live in a rich area, but to enter a rich area, you need to have at least S$3 million in assets in your name.

And that's just the bare bare essentials.

That's right, this is a terrifying dividing line, ordinary people, like Lao Li, even if they work in a mechanical assembly factory all their lives without eating or drinking, they can't earn so much.

Therefore, for the vast majority of poor people, the rich area is an unattainable paradise, and everyone wants to go, but they can't go.

Hong Yi used to be a member of the wealthy district, but he was kicked out overnight. The one who drove him away was the enforcer of the rich area, a highly intelligent combat robot, about the same height as an adult male, with an alloy skeleton, an alloy shell, and a grip strength of more than five hundred kilograms in one hand, the holographic image collection system allows them to see clearly day and night, equipped with large-caliber rifles, even if they are human evolutionaries who can't reach the two-star level, they will never dare to fight against them.

It's no different from suicide.

At that time, they barged in, pointed a gun at Hong Yi, and told Hong Yi in an emotionless synthesized voice that his father's property certificate had been found to be a forgery, that is, they had gone from being official residents of a wealthy area to stowaways. There is only one way for the wealthy to deal with the smuggled poor, and that is to drive them out immediately.

As a result, Hong Yi couldn't take any of his belongings from home, so he was kicked out of the rich area.

At that time, Hong Yi knew that his father's disappearance was definitely not that simple. It's a pity that Hong Yi can't investigate, and if he wants to know what happened to his father at that time, he can only return to the rich area and investigate the situation at that time, and only the identity of a resident of the rich area can have enough authority in the gathering place.

Returning to the rich area, this is the first thing Hong Yi has to do.

However, this is not easy, and it is not easy to accumulate three million Singapore dollars, or rather, it is simply impossible to complete it according to the normal way.

But this is not the only way to get into the wealthy.

If you become a Star Evolver and have a White Star rating of 3, you can also become a resident of the Wealthy District and purchase a property in the Wealthy District as long as you pay a deposit of S$300,000.

S$300,000 is a lot less than $3 million.

However, to become a White Star Level 3 Evolver, it is not possible for everyone, and that requires a certain amount of potential.

The wealthy section has very strict criteria, and the potential of individuals is calculated by probing the body and brain, ranging from 10 to 100 points.

Only those who reach a score of 60 or above are eligible to become a star evolutionary, because the higher the score, the brain can withstand the special program of the lieutenant brain to open up the brain domain, and if the score is too low, the consequence of forcibly opening the brain domain is that the brain bursts, resulting in death.

There are many examples of such failures, lack of potential, and the consequences of rashly opening up the brain domain are only a dead end.

Hong Yi was tested when he was twelve years old, and his personal potential score was 75, which is already excellent, which is why Hong Yi has hope in his heart.

If he has the opportunity, he is very likely to become a star evolutionary, and when the time comes, Hong Yi's fate will be completely changed.

So this second path is relatively reliable.

To become a star evolutionary, you need a potential rating of more than 60 points, a lieutenant brain to load the evolution program, and an evolution potion.

The potential value, Hong Yi has reached the standard, Adjutant Zhibrain, Hong Yi picked one up from the garbage heap, and the rest is the evolution program and evolution potion of the corresponding level.

And these two things are sold in the gathering place, but even the evolution program and potion of the White Star level will cost at least 20,000 new coins, and the high-grade ones are more expensive.

Relying on picking up garbage, it is impossible to save enough money, and Hong Yi has not saved much money in recent years, and many of them are spent on the assembly of this mechanical dog.

To make money, Hong Yi now has two paths, one is to participate in the underground mechanical dog competition in the slums, but even if he wins, it will only be a few hundred Singapore dollars per game, Hong Yi originally planned to do this, but after the Wang family's father and daughter took away the adjutant Zhi Zhi who his father gave him, Hong Yi changed his mind.

It was still too slow to participate in the mechanical dog competition to win the prize, Hong Yi couldn't wait, if possible, he immediately wanted to kill back to the rich area, trample the Wang family under his feet, and investigate his father's disappearance.

To achieve your goal faster, you can only choose the second path, which is to become a mercenary.

At this time, Hong Yi walked to a three-story building, and above the entrance of the small building, there was a dragon-shaped sign hanging above, which represented the mercenary organization. The wealthy in the rich area and some large companies often hire mercenaries to hunt monsters, collect supplies, rescue, and perform various dangerous tasks outside the gathering place, of course, they will pay quite a considerable remuneration, and it can be said that in the slums, mercenaries have the highest income.

However, high income comes high risk, and mercenaries also have the highest mortality rate.

What Hong Yi has to do now is to register with the Mercenary Association and become a mercenary.
