Chapter 292: Will there be pie in the sky?
Of course, it was impossible for Song Lan to follow the example of the Lunar Eclipse Sect and infect the entire city.
Let the citizens become psionic batteries, which will only make him become a cult leader and be arrested by Lu Xiang.
But if they change their mindset and let the mutated creatures achieve the same effect, they may be able to truly incorporate psionic energy into their future development strategies.
Father Bruno may not be of much help in research, but as a veteran believer, he is well aware of the pattern of the Eclipse Cult, and the fact that the canopy allows independent individuals to temporarily gain abilities that do not belong to them seems to be able to use their motherhood consciousness to apply some special abilities to individuals in the swarm.
Luckily, since the diplomatic team from the third country had only arrived in the 17th District for a few days, the symptoms of the people affected by the website were not deep, and he collected a list of those affected from the website background through Father Bruno.
This is a testament to the versatility of a good hacker.
The list that neither Lu Xiang nor Dr. Bai Zhu could get was found by him without using any electronic devices.
When she first saw this list, Song Lan was also taken aback.
In just a few days, thousands of people have registered members on the Internet, and sixty percent of them have enjoyed the "benefits" brought to them by the Eclipse Sect to varying degrees.
According to Father Bruno, the enjoyment of "benefits" comes at a price.
This is similar to fish farming, when people have reached a certain level of trust in the Eclipse Cult, they will start receiving payment, and then clicking on the prayer option again will lead to the same situation as Riki, with a prompt saying "Sorry, your faith is overdrawn and I can't provide you with additional prayer services for the time being".
The appearance of this prompt proves that the believer has been brainwashed successfully and can become a full-fledged battery to generate its own electricity.
According to the Eclipse Cult's assessment, as long as one to two hundred people are converted into "batteries", the construction of the canopy can be completed in the seventeenth district, and it can infect and assimilate the entire city in less than a month, turning it into an experimental base for the Eclipse Cult.
Originally, the Eclipse Cult did not want to extend their experimental facilities into the territory of the Coalition Government due to big business and big families, but the Foster family's withdrawal gave them an opportunity.
"There's no way around it."
Lu Xiang looked at the list that Song Lan brought back and sighed, "At present, the unemployed still account for the majority, and the number of people who register members on the website will only increase." ”
The Lunar Eclipse cult is very good at controlling people's minds, especially negative emotions.
In third countries, they exploited people's fears of infection and radiation, while in District 17, they changed tactics, taking advantage of people's desperation for life and hatred of big business.
It doesn't take long to sign up for a membership, but you can get a life-changing opportunity, which is no different from pie in the sky.
"If we let it go, the number of registrations will grow more and more."
After seeing the complete list, Lu Xiang made an important decision.
In the afternoon of the same day, the website set up by the Eclipse Cult in the 17th district was banned for promoting feudal superstition and not conforming to the values of the coalition government.
Banning websites is only the first step, and the rest of the work will not be easy.
All of a sudden, there are hundreds of "infected" with different symptoms, and they have to treat them before they spontaneously become "batteries".
"In the end, it will either become a leek of a large enterprise, or a leek of the Eclipse Sect, and there is no difference in essence."
Song Lan leaned back on the sofa and looked up at the ceiling.
And from what he saw, it was not difficult to see that the latter seemed to be more harmful, if he hadn't stayed up all night yesterday, they would have received a report this morning that Riki had killed his child.
The more I think about some things, the more angry I become, but there is nothing I can do, and I always think about these useless things and end up angry with my body.
"Comrade Song Lan, what do you think?"
After Lu Xiang ordered the executive department and the special operations team to send the people on the list to be treated with α blockers, he supported Song Lan's chin with both hands, and looked a little distracted.
Today's Song Lan is a little abnormal, he is not like lying down on her sofa directly, taking the tablet and wearing headphones, as if everything in this world has nothing to do with him anymore, but leaning on the sofa and thinking about life.
You must know that Song Lan is the same as her, but she hasn't slept all night.
This guy not only has a healthy work and rest, but also pulls her to bed early, every time she wants to stay up late in the living room to read the file for a while, she will be carried back to bed by Song Lan in a coerced way.
"I thought it would be nice if there was the power to make money fall from the sky in this world."
The main reason why they are vigorously developing swarm technology is because of poverty, Song Lan feels that the saying that the poor rely on mutation is really true, if you think about it carefully, the main types of troops they are currently developing do not need money.
The Hornworm team was recruited from the local area, and the Wyvern of the Air Force was hatched by the Crescent, and the mechanical facilities studied by Guff were all made of local materials and remodeled and assembled with electronic parts from the garbage dump, which is also the reason why the armaments of the "Infected" series look in tatters.
Even so, the establishment of the underground research institute and the research of Maydell and others still spent all the money that Princess Lieyang had invested in them.
Even research funding is stretched thin, and they simply can't send warmth to the large number of unemployed people.
After learning that Yungang Biopharma had manipulated the nutritional injections, they also had to review the injections from time to time.
"At least nine adults in District 17 have had your thoughts."
"No, I mean really."
Song Lan is not a utopian, "There are so many disruptive psionic people in the core area, haven't they thought that the executives of some large enterprises will accidentally transfer a huge amount of money to them?" ”
"Yes, but the Bureau of Anomaly Investigation isn't vegetarian either."
Lu Xiang said, "They can promise to invite you to prison before you spend your money." ”
What's more, for psionic people who can do this kind of thing, this is definitely an act that can but is not necessary, "As long as the ability is not too inferior, there will be a large number of large companies or families willing to hire them, and I have never heard of a psionic person who is short of money." ”
"What if we changed the style a little bit?"
Song Lan understands that in 2166, when information technology is so advanced, as long as the coalition government is willing to investigate, it can immediately find out where every payment goes, "For example, diamond rain falls from the sky or something, and then we take the fallen things to exchange for money." ”
"Song Lan ......"
Hearing this, Lu Xiang's eyes couldn't help but show a little worry, "Have you read too many fairy tales recently?" ”
