Chen Fan arrived in a world ruled by "gods."
The statues of gods spoke with synthesized electronic voices; divine blessings bestowed mechanical prosthetic limbs...

Chapter 118 Mole
"You are not a big shot?"
The middle-aged man in the lead couldn't help but grinning when he heard Chen Fan's words: "Brothers, he actually said he is not a big shot!"
The laughter came from the front.
Chen Fan frowned, looking at the huge scar that kept twitching with the middle-aged man's movements, and his vigilance was raised to the extreme.
These people in front of him are definitely not members of the resistance!
He silently clenched his right hand.
In the blind spot of everyone's sight, Chen Fan's palm began to slowly flash fluorescent green light, and the shadow of a pistol began to gradually appear.
As long as there is something wrong, these bandit-like men will usher in the first and last plasma bullet in their lives.
"Who are you fooling?"
Just when Chen Fan was about to show his weapon, the middle-aged man restrained the mocking smile on his face.
He shrugged, spread his hands and looked around: "Look at the clothes you are wearing. Which one can we poor people afford to wear?"
Then, the middle-aged man pulled the corner of his mouth and showed a not-so-gentle smile: "I know your worries."
"Don't worry, we are not hyenas. We don't do those crazy things that make us give birth to children without anus. We are just the most ordinary salvagers."
The middle-aged man's words were a bit vulgar, but there was no obvious malice.
Chen Fan also let down his guard a little.
Hyena? Salvage?
His eyes moved slightly, and some guesses emerged in his mind:
these two should be two professions in the underground city. It is certain that people in these two professions will be active on the ground.
Although it is not clear what the "hyena" does, looking at the scattered drones on the ground, Chen Fan vaguely guessed the work content of the salvagers-"salvage" various mechanical equipment from the ground and exchange them for the required resources in the resource-scarce underground city.
Just like picking up rags.
"I know the rules."
Chen Fan nodded and looked at the wreckage of the drone on the ground: "That's your trophy. I'm not interested in it."
Hearing this, the hostility in the eyes of the men in front of him instantly dissipated, and even the ferocious smile on the face of the middle-aged man in the lead became brighter.
Feeling the instantly relaxed atmosphere around him, Chen Fan laughed dumbly.
But the next second, he felt a deep sadness.
This is just a destroyed drone.
But it is a precious item that nearly ten strong men are fighting for at the risk of their lives.
If time goes back a few hundred years, this drone may be just an insignificant little screw in a modern city. Even if it is placed on the side of the road, not many people will care about it!
This is the decline of civilization.
Chen Fan couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart.
"My name is Hong Chengdong, you can just call me Dongzi."
The crisis was resolved, and the middle-aged man subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, then silently retracted his right arm to his side, trying to cover the huge scar on it as much as possible, with a smile on his face: "I don't know how to call you?" "
No need for honorifics, just call me Chen Fan."
Chen Fan did not hide anything, and said frankly: "Also, I didn't lie to you, I'm really not a big shot."
Hong Chengdong's expression stagnated, and then turned his head and looked at his companions.
Everyone's face was a little confused, bewildered and suspicious.
Obviously, even if Chen Fan tried his best to show a sincere expression, no one believed his words.
"You... are joking."
Hong Chengdong's mouth twitched: "If you are looking for a passage back to the underground city, we are willing to serve you."
"No need for any reward, just consider it as our apology for bumping into you before."
Damn, I misjudged it.
I didn't expect that big shots would be as fussy as they are!
If he had known this, he would not have been so tough before...
Thinking of this, Hong Chengdong's face suddenly showed a bit of pain.
As for Chen Fan, his eyes naturally lit up when he heard this.
This is a great opportunity!
He had just left Varela City and his only knowledge of this world was still stuck in the catastrophe hundreds of years ago.
There is no doubt that he can use these natives to get a general understanding of the pattern and situation of this world and this civilization.
He can even get more information about the intelligent machines and the goddess from them-these salvagers have been dealing with intelligent machines on the ground for many years, and they must know some first-hand information that others don't know.
Of course, the more important point is the post-processing work of the entire disaster-stricken civilization.
Chen Fan still remembers that in the task assessment of the investigators of the Dangerous Technology Administration, the post-processing of the disaster-stricken civilization accounted for a considerable proportion of the score.
What is this called?
Killing three birds with one stone! !
Since crossing into this world and serving as an investigator of the Dangerous Technology Administration, this is the first time he has encountered such an easy and simple start!
Having said that, Chen Fan was not blinded by the immediate interests.
He was still clearly aware of a key point in his heart -
he was not a resident of the underground city at all!
God knows how big the underground city Hong Chengdong mentioned is, and what security measures are there.
If the underground city has a complete household registration system, then rashly breaking into someone else's territory will only cause him unnecessary trouble!
"Let's put off the matter of returning to the dungeon for now. I want to ask you something first."
Following the principle of being cautious before doing anything, Chen Fan decided to get a rough idea of the basic information first.
So, under the gaze of Hong Chengdong and the other men, Chen Fan reached out of his pocket and took out an electromagnetic pistol that was completely black and had a fairly complete anti-rust coating, and showed it in front of them.
Looking at the confused eyes of the crowd, Chen Fan's heart sank suddenly.
The situation seemed to be worse than he expected!
The residents of these underground cities couldn't even recognize the electromagnetic pistols of the rebels!
In a sense, the inheritance of this civilization seemed to have a huge gap!
"Have you seen similar firearms?"
Although he already had the answer in his mind, Chen Fan still asked Hong Chengdong without giving up.
Hong Chengdong looked at Chen Fan's face, carefully reached out and grabbed the well-preserved electromagnetic pistol and looked at it carefully.
He frowned and shook his head slowly: "I've never seen such a strange gun."
"I didn't expect there would be a gun with a cracked barrel. You big shots have so many tricks..."
Hong Chengdong complained in a low voice: "Let alone anything else, can this gun with a cracked barrel still fire bullets normally?"
Hong Chengdong looked at Chen Fan with a look of wastefulness: "You still say you are not a big shot, only you in the world would waste resources like this!"
Chen Fan was speechless.
Well, let alone not recognizing that this is the rebel's sidearm, even the electromagnetic pistol has become a completely unfamiliar equipment.
The inheritance of this civilization is too thorough!
"Then have you heard of the rebels?"
Facing Hong Chengdong's eyes full of regret, Chen Fan asked with some reluctance.
"Anti...Rebels?"
As soon as the voice fell, the expressions on the faces of the several strong men in front of him suddenly changed dramatically, visible to the naked eye!
Chen Fan was delighted when he saw this!
There is a reaction! A reaction is a good thing!
He was afraid that these underground city residents would have no reaction to the word "Rebels"!
Under Chen Fan's gaze, Hong Chengdong took a deep breath, and the muscles on his arm twitched twice, and the huge centipede-like scar also moved.
"If you are talking about those moles who don't know what they are doing, I think I should know them."
Mole?
Now it was Chen Fan's turn to look a little strange.
Is this really a word to describe the rebels?
"Can you tell me more about it?"
"Of course!"
Hong Chengdong nodded, and then silently stared at Chen Fan's pocket, with an expectation in his eyes that did not match his fierce appearance.
Seeing that Chen Fan did not make any move, Hong Chengdong had to stretch out his right hand and rub his thumb and index finger gently: "This..."
Seeing this familiar action, Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized!
Damn, this news is still charged!
And, even in another world, why is the gesture of asking for money still the same? !
While complaining in his heart, Chen Fan put his right hand in his pocket and started to dig.
The pocket was naturally empty.
But it was no big deal - Chen Fan directly chose to ask for help from Yi.
'Yi, do you have any backward gadgets, such as fusion batteries? '
[...The storage space of this machine is limited, and it will not carry garbage. ]
'...'
Well, the last expectation was also dashed.
In Hong Chengdong's expectant eyes, Chen Fan put his right hand behind his back: "Sorry, I came out too quickly and forgot to bring anything."
"Next time, I will definitely make up for your reward next time!"
Damn!
Miscalculated!!
If he had known that he would encounter this kind of thing, he would have to get some wool from the church.
Apart from anything else, those surveillance cameras disguised as statues are definitely 99% rare!
Hong Chengdong's mouth twitched twice, and he looked at Chen Fan with a weird face.
This fuck... is he really a big shot?
Or are all those big shots so stingy?
He, who had never dealt with big shots, fell into deep thought.
"Forget it, forget it..."
Hong Chengdong raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, saying with some annoyance: "Just consider it as our apology for offending you earlier."
"I've made it clear to you, the information is free, but if you want to use our passage to return to the underground city, you will be charged!"
"You are a big shot, you can't take advantage of such a small thing, right?"
It's just a reward, what's so difficult about it?
At most, he can just find an intelligent drone!
Chen Fan, who has made up his mind to take advantage of the goddess, nodded repeatedly: "It should be, it should be!"
"Don't worry, your reward will definitely be included!"
Hong Chengdong glanced at Chen Fan with a suspicious look.
For some reason, he always felt that Chen Fan was a little different from those big shots in the underground city...
