On the night of the change of ownership in Shangcheng, a subordinate handed over a heavy package to Gu Shun, who was busy at the desk.

For Gu Shun, the trip to the city is not the end, what he needs to do has just begun.

He still has a long way to go in order to rebuild the city of Meta and truly unify the two cities that have been divided for more than 200 years.

"City Lord, this is something sent from the Upper City, something handed to you by a man who calls himself Shi Zhou." The subordinate carefully placed the package on Gu Shun's desk.

"Oh? Shi Zhou. Gu Shun hurriedly opened the package and found that it was a thick stack full of research materials on prosthetics and mechas.

All of these materials are handwritten, and the top pages are slightly faded in ink, and it looks like a long time ago.

At the end of the document, there is also a letter.

【Revelation from the City Lord of Meta City:

As the initiator of all the accidents in the Upper City, I would like to express my deep apologies to you, the Lord of the City, and to all the citizens of the Upper City.

But I know that the sins I have committed cannot be remedied by no amount of apologies.

My ancestors passed on Company M to me, but I made it look like this, and I no longer had the shame to face the fathers and people in Shangcheng.

Thanks to you, the city lord, there were no greater casualties in the upper city. Although I have lied to you a lot, there is one thing that I have never lied to you throughout, and you are the most special one.

The gypsy woman said that you are the savior who can change everything, and the future of the Upper City is up to you.

Please be kind to all the people in the upper city, they are just ordinary people who are lost in the spiritual realm just like me. It's just that I've been lost deeper and longer than they are.

I really want to see with my own eyes the once prosperous Meta City mentioned by my grandfather, but unfortunately I don't have the opportunity anymore.

These are the manuscripts I have researched and accumulated over the years, hoping to play a small role in the future of Meta City, and it can be regarded as my last effort for Meta City. 】

This was the end of the letter, and at the place where the letter was signed, there were still a few dried bean tears.

As soon as he put down the letter, Xiaopeng called, and his subordinates reported that a corpse was found under the tower of Company M, which was the person Gu Shun met at the border inspection, Shi Zhou.

The preliminary judgment is that it fell from the upper floor.

Gu Shun just said that he knew, and hung up the phone.

"The bird is dying and its song is mourning, and the man is dying and its words are good." Shi Zhou died in the twilight before the dawn, and he passed away with the old era of Shangcheng.

As the president of Company M, he spent his life researching the source code left by Stephen, but in the end he was deceived by Xiu's scam and almost ruined everything.

But as the ruler of the upper city, he always had a trace of conscience and love for the people.

In the decades of Shangcheng, there was no harsh government, and he was not involved in the notorious organ business.

Instead, he devoted himself to the research of prosthetics and mechas, hoping to bring more prosthetic changes to the people of Shangcheng.

No matter how the coffin is decided, his merits and demerits have become a thing of the past.

"Send these manuscripts to the scientific research department in the name of Shi Zhou, and notify Shangcheng to bury him properly."

"Yes." The men immediately took the order.

Not long after, Qiao Hongyu brought a bowl of ginger soup in front of Gu Shun.

"City Lord, this is the ginger soup that grandma made for you, and it was already a little cold when it was sent over, so you should drink it while it is still warm.

Grandma said, you are busy with work, you don't need to visit her, she is in good health. ”

Gu Shun raised his head and took a sip of ginger soup, "Thank you for your hard work, during this time, you have to take care of your grandmother at night while dealing with government affairs, and you have lost a lot of weight." ”

Qiao Hongyu hurriedly glanced at her chest, "No, I've been losing weight recently, learning how to be more feminine." ”

Gu Shun lowered his head and continued to review the planning plan of Meta City sent by the Construction Department of Xiacheng, but did not hear Qiao Hongyu's words.

"City Lord, what are you looking at?" Seeing that Gu Shun was busy and carried away, Qiao Hongyu wanted to share some of the work she could for Gu Shun.

Gu Qi

Just came back from Shangcheng, Gu Shun stayed in the office to deal with official business for a whole day, and the donkeys of the production team were not so tired, which made Qiao Hongyu feel unspeakably distressed.

"I'm preparing for the redevelopment of Meta. Since the two cities are to be merged into one, it is necessary to fully consider the location, characteristics and advantages of the upper and lower cities, such as the industrial areas that hurt each other between the two city-states must all be removed.

In addition, the transportation between the upper and lower cities must also be fully opened, and the previous border inspection road alone can no longer meet the needs of transportation and the flow of materials and people.

I'm also going to build a brand new Meta City City Lord's Mansion near the middle of the two cities......"

……

A year later, after several months of running-in and planning and construction, the upper and lower cities were finally completely integrated. After a hundred years, the former city of Meta has finally regained its glory.

The inauguration ceremony of Meta City was also officially held in the newly built Castle Lord's Mansion Square.

The New Town Lord's Mansion sits on the site of the border gate that once blocked the two cities, and from here, a road connects the two cities, which were once hostile and divided.

The architectural style of the Lord's Mansion fully absorbs the original style of Maita City, and on the banner fluttering in the wind, the tall tower and ears of wheat that symbolize Maita City are waving in the wind.

Countless residents of the Upper and Lower Cities, standing side by side, wept as the city finally returned.

The celebrations in Meta City were even grander than those in the lower cities.

Gu Shunquan invited officials from almost all the city-states on the mainland to come and watch the ceremony.

Many of the city-state officials, who had previously been ignorant of the current situation in the lower city, were shocked when they saw that the invitation was signed by the city of Meta.

The glory and prosperity of the city of Meta are obvious to all, and it is a miracle that the upper and lower cities have been unified in just one year.

But this miracle was like a fish in the throat and a man's back to many of the city-state diplomats who came to watch the ceremony.

If Meta City is really rebuilt, it will undoubtedly be a huge threat to them.

The city-state pattern of the entire continent will also be broken, and the world will tremble.

Unlike these apprehensive city-state diplomats.

At this moment, the people of the upper and lower cities crowded the square, cheering Gu Shun's name in unison, extremely proud and proud.

After a year of diagnosis and treatment, the residents of Shangcheng have recovered to varying degrees, and many people have also come out of the virtual world of the spiritual realm and embraced reality again.

With the help of a large number of preferential support policies, they found new jobs in the new city-state, and their impression of the lower city was greatly changed, and they let go of the prejudices and discrimination they had before.

Under the organized promotion of Gu Shun, the metaverse in the lower city absorbed the technology of the upper city and rebuilt it in the upper city.

This metaverse is more open and diverse than the previous spiritual world, and Shangcheng people can also rely on their own advantages to make money to support their families in the metaverse.

However, each person only has a maximum of 8 hours of time per day, and the rest of the time is used for rehabilitation and enjoying real life.

After eating synthetic starch and protein for hundreds of years, the people of Uptown have eaten food in the true sense of the word, saying goodbye to stomach tubes and nutrient solutions, and regaining their human instincts.

Now the reality is no longer a cage of despair and darkness for them, they have more opportunities to learn about the world, travel, cook, keep pets, and love each other...... Feel the beauty of life.

Xiacheng also ushered in the explosive development of science and technology after absorbing the scientific and technological heritage and basic reserves of Shangcheng.

The two cities have learned from their strengths and worked together to achieve exponential progress.

The once polluted Lower City and the self-enclosed virtual Upper City are completely history.

On the square of Meta City, the people who had long been unable to hold back, saw Gu Shun appear, and they shouted one after another, the sound shook like thunder, and many people even fainted excitedly.

When the diplomats on the viewing platform saw Gu Shun, their mouths opened even more in shock.

I didn't expect the people who unified the upper and lower cities to be so young.

At a young age, he became the lord of Meta City, and he had the background of the upper city and the strength of the lower city.

Under his leadership, many people felt deep trembling and fear as to how much potential Meta City should have in the future.
