When the 'Heavenly Dog' devoured the sun, the apocalypse descended. Xu Zhi, a young girl with a heart condition, was cruelly abandoned by her parents in a dead city.
Countless mutated...
Xu Zhi did not set any requirements on how many of each attribute there should be in the 800 pieces. After all, if he mentioned it again, the number would have to be compressed.
"So, Miss Xu, do you still remember what questions we raised?"
Zhong Lingfan's research report on extraordinary people.
Of course Xu Zhi remembered.
"Zhong Lingfan, that gentle-looking woman."
"She said that the old version was unfinished, and she's currently researching new transcendents, so it'll probably take some time before the manuscript is finished."
After saying that, Xu Zhisi casually asked, "How come she's a professor and is still staying in the city?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Zhi was able to move freely in Yuncheng, and the fact that Zhong Lingfan was still alive was established.
"She stayed of her own accord."
Lin Zizhen only said this, and then changed the subject: "Miss Xu, can you wait until the report is completed and bring it out? We can pay a sufficient reward."
"You want to know the current situation of the extraordinary people in Yuncheng?" Xu Zhi directly exposed the other party's plan.
Lin Zizhen's smile paused slightly, and she secretly wondered why this child was speaking so bluntly. Did she really not understand the social etiquette of adults?!
"The price is not cheap." Xu Zhi said with a smile.
On the other end of the surveillance camera, someone said in a slightly annoyed tone, "She didn't write the report. She was just delivering the message, yet she's charging a huge fee, making it seem like she wrote it!"
Some people were helpless: "What can we do? Now she is the only one with this channel. Of course, the monopoly makes the price higher."
"We should try to find another way to get in touch with the city!"
"If there was such a method, it would have been used long ago. Isn't there nothing we can do now?"
"So are we going to let this little girl ask for so much? We have so many cores, enough to train countless extraordinary people. If we give them all to her now, she might not even survive in the city for long!"
"Why would she need so many cores if she's alone? She must have her own team. Maybe she can live a little longer."
"If she survives until we find a way to enter Cloud City, won't she have to give up everything she has gained from us?"
As soon as these words were spoken, someone sneered: "That's a bit far-fetched. Aren't we helpless against cities like that now?"
"What's more, she's so young and inexperienced, yet now she's seized the opportunity and made such a decision. I think she's a talented person, so why not recruit her when the time comes?"
"That's true."
"That's getting off topic. She's definitely going to ask for a lot. Now, are you going to agree to her request?"
"I don't think there's any rush. She may not live long enough to see Zhong Lingfan finish his report, and Zhong Lingfan may not be able to finish it either. It's better to raise this issue later."
"If Zhong Lingfan has finished writing this report and she is still alive, then we really need this research report."
"You are right."
So, after receiving the order, Lin Zizhen replied to Xu Zhi: "After Professor Zhong finishes writing the report, please be lenient with him. After all, we don't have a lot of cores."
Xu Zhi replied with an OK, but it’s not certain whether it was a real OK or not.
After dealing with a "historical legacy" issue, we now move on to today's new transaction phase.
"We want to know why the people inside can't get out?"
"This is a question." Xu Zhi thought about it. This is not a very valuable question. "Just two hundred cores."
"Okay." Lin Zizheng nodded decisively.
"The reason is quite simple. Some people have tried to reach the city's borders, but they were trapped in the black fog, unable to find a way out. The only way out was to return to the city."
The reason is similar to the reason why one cannot enter the outside world, but there is not even black fog in the outside world. It is simply a strange scene like a ghost wall. Even the entrance cannot be found from the sky and underground passages.
Lin Zizhen nodded and asked, "Could Miss Xu tell me about the changes in Yuncheng?"
"As for the price, let's decide based on what Miss Xu said. How about that?"
The more information Xu Zhi reveals about the city, the more cores he will get.
This is actually quite good. Xu Zhi can say whatever he wants to say without having to think about the traps in the other party's questions.
After sorting out what information she could share at this stage, the girl spoke:
"There are quite a few variations, but I'm afraid you can't afford the prices I've mentioned, so just pick a few."
This is not bragging, but Xu Zhi has positioned some information in her mind as something that cannot be revealed to the outside world at this stage. Even if the time comes, she will definitely ask for a sky-high price, such as the information about alien species gathering in the city center.
However, there is a piece of information that can be sold at a good price and can also make the other party pay more attention to the changes in the city.
"You can't go out in the city at night. It's very dangerous at night. Not only are there dangers brought by alien species and mutated animals, but there are also some even more dangerous beings."
The other party was obviously interested in this information, so Lin Zizhen directly asked, "Can you tell me more details?"
Xu Zhi looked at him seriously and said, "The details won't be explained at this price. I'm afraid you may not be able to come up with that many cores. Anyway, you can't get in right now, so just know this."
Xu Zhi only wanted to make a small profit from this superficial information. If he wanted the details, he shouldn't reveal them now. At least, he had to wait until the other party had accumulated more wealth.
"I'm sure you haven't heard of this information. How much do you plan to bid?"
Lin Zizhen fell silent. It seemed that the people on the other end of the surveillance camera were arguing fiercely.
First of all, they couldn't tell the authenticity of Xu Zhi's message.
But judging from the previous transactions, Xu Zhi never lied, and didn't even mind some of their little tricks. His purpose was purely for the core. Even if there was suspicion of asking for too much, but in terms of honesty, Xu Zhi did not give people any room for criticism.
"I need evidence."
Someone made the final decision.
Lin Zizhen then said with embarrassment, "Ms. Xu, this information is certainly valuable, but we can't be sure. You know, apart from you, no one can know whether it's true or not. We need some evidence, okay?"
Xu Zhi nodded: "Of course, but I need you to pay me now. I will bring the evidence next time. You will also need to pay an additional fee for that evidence. After all, it is not easy for me to bring anything out of there."
This is of course a lie. She has a game warehouse. Although she can't use her spirit body to take things out of it now and can only put things in, wouldn't it be okay to write a suggestion later?
At most, I would ask her to pay for the core, and she would pay it.
As for the evidence, Xu Zhi planned to ask Zhong Lingfan to write a research report on midnight. The other party would definitely be able to tell whether it was written by Zhong Lingfan himself.
If Xu Zhi felt that there was something that could not be disclosed during this period, he could just delete it and make extra money. This was simply perfect.
As for the authenticity of this report, with so many supernatural powers nowadays, there must be a superpower that can distinguish the true from the false, right?
If not, that's the Special Investigation Office's problem. Anyway, she brought the evidence, and after-sales service is not covered.
Because I woke up late and went to bed early yesterday, I didn't write much. I just wrote it here. I will update normally from now on.
