Chapter 867: Cricket No. 1

When he was kicked out of the food court, RT6 was picking up today's iced drink in the supermarket.

The coalition government's artificial intelligence is just too rude.

"You're saying you've been kicked out by artificial intelligence?"

Because the reason is too sci-fi, Song Lan had to confirm with the other party again, according to RT6, it was the artificial intelligence of military technology that drove her out of this street.

According to Song Lan's understanding, RT6's status in artificial intelligence should be equivalent to that of "king", and above her is only the existence that they call "mother".

In other words, the current situation is like Lu Xiang was driven away by an intern who had just joined the law enforcement department not long ago when he went out shopping in the 17th district.

"Laugh if you want."

RT6 crossed his hands around his chest and staggered his gaze.

Letting Franken shark those impolite "wild" artificial intelligence is naturally just angry talk, and she also complained in her heart, for unknown reasons, "Mother" forbade them to interfere in the internal affairs of the coalition government, especially when military technology is involved.

"There's nothing funny about it, I'm just curious, didn't you get them accommodating in your network?"

"These AIs are not linked to our network."

RT6 secretly raised his eyes and glanced at Song Lan, and couldn't help but be a little surprised to see that the latter really didn't mean to laugh at him.

The other party's personality seems to be better than she imagined.

"They're custom-made for military technology, and being here means they're feeling threatened here, and only enough threat will make them show up."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Vadim? ”

Song Lan is becoming more and more worried about her fellow countryman, you can't fall down before you become the villain boss of the program team!

The staff of the program team has already started to edit the video footage recorded last night, if Mr. Vadim unfortunately has an accident, where will they go to find a villain who has been laid for a long time?

Could it be that he still has to call Gustav and ask his reliable friend to make a cameo appearance as the villain of this season?

"Vadim? No way. ”

RT6 shook his head, "They'll only be deployed if they are deemed by military technology to be a catastrophic threat to the coalition government." ”

That's why she's just grumbling and doesn't actually want to get involved in the dispute.

The appearance of "wild" artificial intelligence showed the gravity of the situation, and she couldn't imagine for a moment what kind of uninvited guests would make military technology so aggressive.

RT6 suddenly thought of something and asked, "Does this matter have anything to do with you?" What basket did you poke again? ”

"First of all, your 'again' is very framing."

Song Lan carefully recalled what he had done after coming to the Fourth District, although he collapsed the building of Kolo Films, indirectly killed the founder of Kolo Pictures, and also seized the right to use the "Sea of Souls......

"I'm really just here for breakfast today."

Song Lan's face froze, and her voice weakened a little.

Well, he admits that what has happened in the last few days is hard to believe that he is a normal citizen who keeps to himself.

"Whatever, you're just in time, and if a battle breaks out here that destroys the entire city, you can just stop it."

District 4 was the first city RT6 visited, and she liked it.

In addition to being highly entertaining, it is also a city with a long history, and she occasionally feels the weight of history when she passes by a street or alley.

There seems to be a protracted negotiation going through inside the food court.

When the people watching the excitement were almost gone, the "wild" artificial intelligence finally came out.

It was already noon, and they opened the barrier and restored the street to its usual order.

Before leaving, they escorted a suspect with a black sack on his head and a figure that resembled Vadim into the car and drove off into the distance.

As for the catastrophe that RT6 feared would be enough to destroy the entire Fourth District, there is not even a trace of a big fight in the food court.

In the car that was far away, the agent closest to Vadim removed the black sack that covered his head.

For a long time, he acted as a bystander.

The negotiations did not escalate to violence in the end, and the man of unknown origin left the 4th arrondissement under the "persuasion" of the "blue eyes".

He didn't walk out of the main entrance, but disappeared straight before their eyes after eating the last skewer.

Strange abilities, and the way they disappear, add a few words between negotiations......

Vadim speculated that the middle-aged man was from the "outside world", and he had a vague idea of the terms of the agreement from the confrontation between the two sides, even though it sounded no different from the joint gangsters dividing their territory.

The territory of the coalition government is the "turf" of military technology, and in exchange, military technology will not interfere in all the affairs of men in the "outside world".

Similar means of division, but what is divided becomes the whole world.

If you look at the area of land, the middle-aged man "masters" a larger sphere of influence than military technology, which makes Vadim think of the leader of the rebels, after all, he was also a native of the 17th District, and he is no stranger to these felons who dominate the "outside world", but no matter how he thinks, he can't match the middle-aged man with the leader of any rebel army.

After a while, the car stopped.

It's a remote area where Blue Eyes and AI pull up the car and open the automatic door.

No one in the carriage spoke, and the AI motioned for him to get off the train with their eyes.

Vadim wanted to ask something, but when he met the "blue-eyed" look, he obediently obeyed.

Blue-eyed doesn't, and doesn't need to, explain these complex relationships to the company's guinea pigs, which the company has always done, and his mission now is to survive in the city for as long as possible.

As soon as I got off the train, the door of the carriage was closed.

The vehicle with the Bureau of Investigation logo sped away, leaving him alone on the side of the street.

Until, someone tapped him on the shoulder.

"Hey, aren't you their most wanted man? They just let you go? ”

It was a familiar voice, and as soon as he turned around, he saw a familiar figure, and Vadim blurted out, "You're notβ€”"

"Yes, you read that right, I've left the city."

"Then you ......"

"I took a middle ground."

Compared with the indifferent and impersonal "blue eyes", Vadim felt that this middle-aged man who did not know the details was much kinder.

The middle-aged man seemed to guess Vadim's thoughts, and continued, "I just said that your life is short, or it won't be long before what they put in your head will kill you, and you have no future with them." ”

"They installed a positioning system on me."

Although Vadim felt that there was some truth in what the man said, he had to remind the other party, "Their conversation is being monitored by them right now, and it won't be long before the company comes back...... Your plan has failed. ”

"You kid doesn't look very smart, that's it, I'll explain to you again, I'm not here for a long time, this is the exchange between consciousnesses, with their three-legged cat technology, this field can't be reached."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Conscious? ”

"Frankly speaking, I see that you have a strange skeleton and are very talented, how about it, do you want to follow me?"

"You just said I'm not very smart."

"You're really not very smart, it's a scene to say that you have a very talented skeleton, don't take it seriously."

The middle-aged man frankly admitted what he thought in his heart, "Please rest assured, you are not the chosen one, there is no such statement now, I just didn't find other suitable people for a while, so I chose you." ”

Choose between Vadim and the barbecue owner.

In the end, in his mind, Vadim narrowly defeated the unknown barbecue restaurant owner.

Of course, this is also the result of weighing the fact that the owner has a store to take care of, unlike Vadim, who is a jobless vagrant who can wander around.

It turns out that sincerity isn't always nirvana.

Sometimes excessive sincerity can easily make people angry, and this is the case with Vadim now.

If it was a few days ago, he would have picked up the heat energy cutting blade and slashed it down, but the experience of the past few days has made him grow a lot, especially when he realizes that his true level is likely to be at the level of T4 or T5 in the fourth district, which means that he may not be able to beat any passerby with a name or surname on the street.

The so-called "evolution" is ultimately just a bully of the characters in the movie who have no names until the end.

"What if I refuse?"

"You're asking about the consequences?"

The middle-aged man said, "There are no consequences, after all, I am not a devil, and I will not dismantle you because of such a trivial matter, but in this way you will miss a golden opportunity, but not just anyone has the opportunity to follow me, young man, I can see that you have many doubts in your heart, don't you want to know the answer to them?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Fall to the ground protection, what's going on? ”

Vadim asked suddenly.

He didn't come out on the first day, and it was impossible to be honest with someone who had only met twice, this problem has been bothering him for the past few days, and the people of the "Blue Eye" company did not explain the principle, and it seems that even military technology is very accepting of this change in "rules".

"Psionic energy."

The middle-aged man's explanation was too concise and to the point, which made Vadim even more confused.

"Psionics?"

"As long as you can refine one of these psionic abilities to the extreme, you can change the world, the destruction corresponding to the destructive psychic, the domination corresponding to the interference psionic energy, and the support psionic energy...... What am I saying to you for? It's not something you should care about, you're never going to be exposed to them in your life, all you have to do is try to adapt to the rules when they're changed. ”

"How do I know if what you're saying is true?"

"Well, so be it."

Vadim saw the middle-aged man's raised hand pointing across the street, "You run across the street now." ”

Despite all his doubts, Vadim did so.

A minute later he was back where he was.

A familiar feeling welled up in my mind, first a brief blank of consciousness, and thenβ€”

"The other side of the street looks unremarkable, and there is no need to explore it now."

"From now on, you won't be able to get across the street anyway."

The middle-aged man crossed his arms around his chest and watched with interest as Vadim did everything he could to get to the other side of the street, though he himself couldn't remember how many outrageous attempts he had made.

Wadim, who had woken up from his trance, looked across the street in a daze.

Everything he had experienced was incredible, the underground emperor of his dignified fourth district, the prosthetic implanter who had completed the "evolution", couldn't even cross the street at the moment.

At this moment, Vadim finally understood the reason why military technology was like a great enemy.

A simple thought from a man in front of him has the potential to turn an entire city upside down.

At that time, he was in the world of "illusions", and it was the same feeling when he stood in front of the strange statue of the church, and at this moment, he, and even the whole city, seemed to be held in the palm of his hand by an invisible, huge hand.

The middle-aged man seemed to see through his mind and said, "You want to ask me what I found your purpose?" Well, it's related to my personal interests, I really like a game called 'Cricket Fighting Tournament', which has been in the top three of this tournament many times, but this tournament has been abolished for a long time, and I haven't felt like a chess opponent for a long time. ”

Cricket fighting contest?

It was another term of unknown significance, but Vadim knew that the "cricket" he was talking about was not an insect or some kind of mutated creature, because the middle-aged man was looking him up and down when he spoke.

The middle-aged man came to the conclusion, "Although your body is in tatters, you should still be able to use it if you pick it up a little." Young man, it's time to decide, whether to mess with me or continue to be one of those machine guinea pigs. ”

"I ......"

Vadim sat up from his bed suddenly, and the sky outside the window had darkened.

The last second of his consciousness was in the morning, when he was still standing on the side of the street and talking to a middle-aged man who had met twice, and he was faced with an important decision.

Immediately afterward, Vadim noticed that something was wrong with him.

The "Overload" system is offline, and all the prosthetics are in a state of downtime.

This feeling is like falling for the tricks of a fraud gang, and when you wake up, you find that you have been sent to a black clinic and your waist is broken.

The only difference was that he didn't feel cold and pain in his body now, but after all the prosthetic bodies had malfunctioned, he actually felt refreshed for a long time.

Immediately afterward, Vadim felt a little dry in his mouth.

When his gaze moved to the bedside table, something unexpected happened - before he could make any moves, the water cup on the bedside table seemed to understand his thoughts, and was lifted up by some invisible force, and then Vadim felt himself connected with the invisible force.

"Very well, you have now mastered the introductory skills of interfering psionic abilities."

A voice came to mind.

"It's time to sign up for the 37th Cricket Fighting Competition, Cricket No. 1."

The small theater of its two hundred and thirty-four:

Thursday, evening, year, month, day

"What's the matter with these crabs?"

As soon as Lu Xiang returned home, Song Lan showed her the photos in the night heron's mobile phone.

If he's not mistaken, these creatures, known to the locals as the Grim Reaper Crab, are one of the most feared creatures in the "outside world", and even mercenaries and arms dealers fear their existence.

"This is a friend of the Night Heron, and they have kept in touch with each other in correspondence."

"Crabs still write letters?"

"In a sense, the night heron is the same kind as them, and she can become a sand dweller or a sea creature if she wants to."

Rather than socializing online, the night heron prefers to interact with its mutant creatures.

"She taught the Grim Reaper Crab a lot of things, and you created the idea of visiting human society."

"Me? What did I do? ”

"The last time you went to the 'outside world', you called them buddies one by one, and now the parents of the people are serious and plan to send their children to human society for training."

Lu Xiang said gloatingly.

There are so many buddies in this dumb bird that he may not even remember himself, and it is foreseeable that there will be many more such visits in the future.

"I submitted my application to the Council today, and they approved the visit plan of the Grim Reaper Crab."

Lu Xiang deliberately paused for a long time and said, "They decided that you will be the image ambassador of the coalition government. ”
