144 Two-in-One

◎Can you do me a favor?◎

It takes a lot of preparation to hunt down Bao Ruiming.

Zhu Ning needed to open a port herself. Song Zhizhang had said before that her ability was very suitable for accessing various chips, but she had never tried it.

Xu Meng recommended a mechanical doctor. She thought it was an underground clinic, but it turned out to be a regular hospital.

It was the first time for Zhu Ning to receive medical treatment in a private hospital in this world. The service attitude was very good and the medical level was also good.

It was so expensive that it made her teeth ache. She finally knew how much it cost Chu Ling to maintain her equipment.

Zhu Ning spent two million just to open a chip slot. It turned out that Song Zhizhang's advice was right. If you are sick, you must not go to the hospital.

Zhu Ning, a prodigal son, donated 10 million Singapore dollars, and now she really feels that the money is not enough to spend.

Xu Meng was waiting for her at the hospital entrance. She was wearing a denim jacket and sunglasses today, and she looked very cool. It seemed that after she stopped pretending, the low-key Xu Meng would look like this.

When Xu Meng saw Zhu Ning coming out, he asked, "How do you feel?"

Zhu Ning couldn't help but touch the wound. The thing was in the middle of her neck and felt very much like a USB port, and more and more like a computer.

She really couldn't get used to the idea of ​​a person making a hole in their body and connecting a chip.

Zhu Ning was very honest: "I feel like I'm leaking air."

"..." Xu Meng shouldn't have asked. She opened the car door and said, "Get in."

Zhu Ning got into Xu Meng's car. Xu Meng was driving. There was another woman in the back seat. She had long straight black hair and was definitely transformed. There was a purple light on her forehead that stretched from the left side to the right side. There were also some faint patterns on the position of her ears, emitting white light. She looked very technological, like a game modeled character walking into reality.

"You're a caracal, right?" She extended her hand to Zhu Ning. "Hello, I'm Big Orange."

Xu Meng said, "The fifth member of the Cheetah Team."

Zhu Ning: “…”

Why are all of you Cheetah Team members cats?

Zhu Ning shook hands with Daju. The code name he casually mentioned to Shanmao actually came true, and he seamlessly joined the Cat Team.

Xu Meng: "She's a robot in our team, similar to Chu Ling, but Chu Ling is a warrior, while she's more of a behind-the-scenes person. You can think of her as a network specialist. She can remotely control non-intelligent robots, and she can even control some robots if they're willing to give her permission. We need her help this time."

So as long as Chu Ling is willing, she can be controlled by Daju.

Daju is like a long-range assistant.

Although useless in contaminated areas, it is very useful when performing real-world missions.

In the past, the Cheetah Team not only entered contaminated areas, but also took on some work to capture criminals. Otherwise, the task of investigating Yongsheng Pharmaceutical would not have been given to Cheng Mofei.

The Cheetah Team consists of five members, led by Xu Meng, whose special ability is related to shadows. Cheng Mofei was powerful enough to investigate Yongsheng Pharmaceuticals at the time, so perhaps his special ability is related to disguise, otherwise it would be difficult for him to be an undercover agent.

The fact that Xie Jiazu was able to climb to the position of head of the cleaning department proved that he had some skills, and the mountain cat could enter the S-level contaminated area alone.

The remaining girl can remotely control the robot, and as long as the equipment allows, she can dispatch a large army of robots.

The five members have completely different skills. No wonder the Cheetah Team is a star team. This configuration will definitely crush the Grey Eagle that has worked with Zhu Ning.

Zhu Ning looked at them with envy, she also wanted to have her own team.

"Wait," Zhu Ning suddenly thought of something and asked, "Huang Yaruo isn't with you, is she?"

Daju: "Smart."

Zhu Ning: “…”

Daju: "We were monitoring Subject 777 until we saw you. When Huang Yaruo ran out that day, we immediately followed her. Don't worry, she's become a sixth-class citizen. She's safe with me now."

This is the advantage of having a team. You don’t have to take on all the work, and each team member will do their own job.

No wonder even Chu Qing couldn’t find any clues.

Zhu Ning asked, "How is Huang Yaruo?"

I bought a house and ended up being cheated for ten years. How could an ordinary person withstand ten years of hardship? Then I had to coexist with a pollutant, and the world changed after it came out.

Daju: "She couldn't accept it at first. She had been away from the world for too long, and it took her a long time to integrate into society. When we asked her about Cheng Mofei, she didn't know either."

Zhu Ning expressed his understanding. Huang Yaruo was already on the verge of collapse, and what happened with Cheng Mofei happened nine years ago. To Huang Yaruo, Cheng Mofei might just be an unusual snail-like person.

However, Daju and Xu Meng seemed to accept it well, and they had no reaction when Cheng Mofei was mentioned.

Daju: "We created a new identity for her. She just wants to live an ordinary life."

Seeing Zhu Ning sigh, Daju asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Zhu Ning: "Oh, it's nothing serious. I just thought about how I lost Huang Yaruo and was treated as an experimental subject by this pervert as a price."

Daju let out an "ah" to indicate that he didn't understand.

Xu Meng chuckled, so Zhu Ning had been silently taking the blame for the Cheetah Team all along.

This pot is big and heavy, and Zhu Ning is being hunted by Yongsheng Pharmaceutical.

Then she was suspected by Xuan Qing and was investigated again and again. If Huo Wenxi had not helped her in the end, she would have been skinned alive by now.

But it’s also strange to think about it, Chu Biantai really disappeared.

Daju didn't understand. She came here for serious business. "Do you have a way to bypass the fortress of Chuangshi Technology?"

Daju had been trying to solve it for a long time but had no idea, but Zhu Ning actually had a way.

Zhu Ning: "Yes, I will introduce you to each other then."

Daju handed Zhu Ning a chip, "Okay, this is your chip. You'll need it when you upload your consciousness."

Zhu Ning took the chip and felt it was magical. He really wanted to turn himself into a computer.

Is this going to be like Cyberpunk 2077 or Ghost in the Shell?

Is this a wasteland? Why is it so cyber?

What kind of pollutants are on the Internet?

Daju explained: "This is not uploading consciousness in the true sense. To fully upload and become an independent life in the consciousness space, you need to copy the entire brain and then discard your human brain."

There is no creation without destruction, and uploading consciousness is equivalent to abandoning the physical body.

Bao Ruiming's brain is equivalent to being in the cloud, and he can remotely control his mechanical prosthesis through chips.

Daju spoke in plain language. "You are considered stowaways. You can let your consciousness reach the cloud. The maximum duration is six hours. Of course, I personally recommend getting out after about three hours, otherwise it will be very troublesome."

Another six hours. The maximum time an ordinary person can stay in a contaminated area is also six hours.

Zhu Ning asked, "Trouble?"

Daju: "If you stay online for too long, you'll lose the ability to distinguish between reality and the internet, and your nerves will be damaged to varying degrees. I heard from the captain that your mental state is very high, so you may be more tolerant than others. But I also want to warn you that you are still at risk of brain damage. Some people's consciousness remains completely in the cloud, becoming fragments in the cloud."

What this means is that this action will cause brain damage, so you should get out of it as soon as possible.

The rules are actually similar to those in the contaminated areas, there are time limits and it’s easy to go crazy if you don’t come out.

Zhu Ning thought about it and found it quite terrifying. If you died, you would really die, and your life would be taken away directly from the conscious level.

Daju: "I'll send the precautions and instructions to your secondary brain. You'll need a bathtub and ice."

Daju handed Zhu Ning a package. "A big gift package. Inside is an eye mask and earplugs. Blocking your five senses will help with uploading."

Zhu Ning: "Does that mean I can operate it at home?"

Daju: "I will guide you from afar, don't worry, I will be there."

Daju speaks in a gentle way, like a psychologist, which makes you feel particularly relaxed.

Although it was the first time Zhu Ning met her, she trusted Xu Meng very much and said, "I'm counting on you."

Daju and Zhu Ning added each other's contact information and asked on the secondary brain, "By the way, have you found your guardian?"

Zhu Ning: "Is a guardian necessary?"

Daju thought Xu Meng hadn't explained it properly to Zhu Ning, so he said seriously, "Guardians need to judge when to disconnect. Sometimes forcibly disconnecting can cause brain damage, and they might wake up mentally retarded. But this is about severing the tail to survive, so we need to make the right judgment at the right time."

Should he let Zhu Ning die in the clouds, or ensure that she stays alive but may become a fool?

The guardian is also under a lot of pressure. After all, if he makes a wrong judgment, he will have to bear the risk of Zhu Ning's death.

A good guardian can save your life, but a bad guardian may make you insane or even kill you.

Xu Meng had mentioned it before, and Zhu Ning got a headache just thinking about it.

Zhu Ning is like a worker who falls ill in another place. He usually bears minor ailments by himself, but when he falls ill and needs someone to sign for him, he realizes that there are many things that cannot be done by one person.

Finding someone to take responsibility for Zhu Ning's life at this time is about as difficult as finding someone to spend the rest of her life with.

Seeing that Zhu Ning had taken it in, Daju continued, "If you have any last words or instructions, I suggest you go and tell them. The death rate in the cloud is much higher than in contaminated areas."

Zhu Ning: “…”

It was very natural for Daju to bring up this matter. After all, Zhu Ning was going to hunt down a VIP user of Chuangshi Technology. It was hard to say whether he could come down after going up to the cloud.

Although Zhu Ning said that with help, they could bypass the fortress of Chuangshi Technology, the depths inside were unfathomable and no outsiders could help.

My sincere advice is, if you want to do something, do it immediately; if you want to meet someone, meet them immediately.

Zhu Ning asked: "When does it start?"

Daju was about to speak when Xu Meng asked, "How long has it been since you last rested?"

Zhu Ning: "Just resting."

Xu Meng knew that this was not true. Zhu Ning came to see her the day after he left his home. He must have done a lot of bad things in the meantime and had no rest at all.

"You need at least three days of rest." Xu Meng said, "You've entered two contaminated areas within five days, one Class A and one Class S. You need to rest. I don't want to bring a contaminated person who might collapse at any time."

Zhu Ning opened his mouth, but Xu Meng interrupted him directly with two words: "Rest."

Zhu Ning shut her mouth; she was forced to rest.

…

Zhu Ning got three days of vacation, during which time she gave Liu Niannian's contact information to Daju.

Zhu Ning didn't understand the technical issues, so they handled them themselves.

Xu Meng didn't even synchronize messages with her, just to let Zhu Ning have a good rest. She chose to sleep on the first day and slept for about sixteen hours.

The next day, she felt that if she continued to sleep like this, she would probably die, so Daju asked her to tell someone her last words.

She thought about it and found no one to talk to. She had only been in this world for a short time and didn't know many people.

And he might not die, Zhu Ning has always been optimistic.

Zhu Ning adhered to the concept of happiness and relaxation. After getting up, he went to find Lin Xiaofeng. They hadn't met properly for a long time.

Lin Xiaofeng has been training with Song Zhizhang recently. Zhu Ning canceled her classes today. Lin Xiaofeng was studying very hard and didn't want to fall behind, so Zhu Ning forcibly took her away.

Zhu Ning felt like a bad parent who let his children play around.

She and Lin Xiaofeng watched a movie. The subtitles were playing and Little Red Riding Hood was floating around.

At this time, Zhu Ning coughed lightly and said, "I have something to tell you."

Zhu Ning felt that there were some things she had to know, so he spoke to her as if she were an adult, "I promised you that I would go kill Bao Ruiming."

Zhu Ning couldn't see Lin Xiaofeng's full appearance, but he could clearly feel that the other party was a little stiff for a moment.

Zhu Ning made a deal with Lin Xiaofeng. Zhu Ning helped her kill her enemies, and Lin Xiaofeng would be her team member in the future.

Lin Xiaofeng didn't speak for a long time. It took some time for a ten-year-old girl to accept all this, and Zhu Ning didn't urge her.

After the movie subtitles were completely played, Lin Xiaofeng asked, "Can't you take me with you?"

Zhu Ning smiled. Lin Xiaofeng was a very capable kid. His first reaction was to want to go along.

Moreover, her ability to control her emotions has improved a lot. After hearing this kind of news, she has remained emotionally stable until now. This little girl is very resilient.

Zhu Ning: "You are a child, you can't go."

Lin Xiaofeng was a little anxious, "Why? Is it because I'm too weak?"

Lin Xiaofeng is too weak. She has not grown up yet, and her growth rate cannot keep up with the speed that Zhu Ning needs.

Zhu Ning can be "forced to grow" by the system and Prometheus, but Lin Xiaofeng can only take one step at a time.

Zhu Ning shook his head: "No, it's because your nerves haven't grown well."

The aftereffects of a minor uploading consciousness are severe. This doesn't mean that Zhu Ning is being heroic and has to shield the little girl from harm. Of course, it's best for him to kill the enemy himself.

There were objective reasons why Lin Xiaofeng was not suitable to enter, and Zhu Ning did not want her to go down this path.

The movie was over and the screen went dark.

"Zhu Ning," Lin Xiaofeng was silent for a moment, then asked, "Will you die?"

If Zhu Ning died, Lin Xiaofeng would completely lose his support.

Zhu Ning has always respected Lin Xiaofeng's ideas and said honestly: "Maybe."

The consciousness body is a space that Zhu Ning has never been to. That place is too illusory.

Zhu Ning was afraid that she would feel overwhelmed, so he added, "I'm not doing this entirely for you. I'm just helping you kill someone. Don't overthink it. I'll wait for you to grow up and work for me."

Zhu Ning tried his best to portray himself as a ruthless exploitation machine and downplay the relationship to a transactional one, but Lin Xiaofeng didn't buy it.

Lin Xiaofeng lowered her head and said nothing. She was obviously in a low mood. She could not do anything and felt like a waste.

Zhu Ning wanted to make a joke to lighten the mood, but it seemed insincere, so she stood in front of Lin Xiaofeng and said, "Come on, I bought you some new clothes. I'll take you out to play."

Lin Xiaofeng was unhappy: "What are you playing?"

Why is Zhu Ning still in the mood to play at this time?

Zhu Ning: "Skiing."

Zhu Ning likes to play all kinds of sports. She has never experienced their entertainment activities since she came to this world.

Xu Meng asked Zhu Ning to rest, because for her, having fun was the real rest.

If he really were going to die, Zhu Ning hoped to have a good time before he died.

Zhu Ning bought a new set of clothes for Lin Xiaofeng. It arrived by FedEx in the afternoon. It looked like a set of protective clothing for children.

Lin Xiaofeng is transparent. After Song Zhizhang's training, she has become increasingly able to control the display range of herself and other objects.

She was wrapped in a protective suit and looked like a little astronaut to outsiders.

Many people in the ski resort were fully armed, so Lin Xiaofeng did not look out of place there.

Song Zhizhang came along. It was the first time that Lin Xiaofeng went out in this form, and Song Zhizhang was a little worried.

This is an artificial ski track with a more technological feel. There are artificial landscapes on both sides of the ski track, with man-made obstacles and technological plants.

There are coaches who can guide people, but Zhu Ning said that this is totally unnecessary.

Zhu Ning has a strong athletic ability. He had skied in his previous life. Although he did not reach the level of an athlete, he was very good at it as an ordinary amateur.

Besides, she has super powers in this life, so what can happen to her?

Zhu Ning was very rich and had booked an entire ski track.

Zhu Ning taught Lin Xiaofeng some basic moves. Lin Xiaofeng's comprehension was surprisingly high. Maybe because he was not an ordinary human being, he got the hang of it very quickly and could start playing right away.

When Zhu Ning took Lin Xiaofeng out to play, Song Zhizhang followed quietly from behind, neither too far nor too close, and not disturbing anyone, just to ensure that Lin Xiaofeng was within his sight.

Zhu Ning was a man of great skill and courage, and he bravely took Lin Xiaofeng with him to bravely cross the long slope. Song Zhizhang heard a cry of surprise from Lin Xiaofeng, which was a cry of great surprise.

Song Zhizhang was a little worried about the safety measures, and was stunned when he heard this exclamation. Lin Xiaofeng has always been very well-behaved and she rarely does anything out of line.

It seemed as if they were deliberately suppressing their inner feelings. This was the first time Song Zhizhang heard Lin Xiaofeng express such real and uncontrollable emotions.

Exercise is very stress-relieving.

Lin Xiaofeng's speed was getting faster and faster, like a bird escaping from a cage. Since the mechanical aquarium incident, this was the first time that Lin Xiaofeng didn't think about anything, as if his mind was completely blank.

Lin Xiaofeng was led forward by Zhu Ning. There were no obstacles on the track in the first stage, so it was purely for stress relief.

When we reached the second track, we saw many trees and rocks.

These obstacles were nothing to Zhu Ning, but they were very difficult for a beginner girl, as she had difficulty controlling the speed and direction.

In order to avoid the rocks in front, Lin Xiaofeng entered the U-shaped track and suddenly lost control and flew into the air.

She was twenty meters above the ground.

Lin Xiaofeng's defense is particularly low, and Song Zhizhang has not had time to solve this problem. If Lin Xiaofeng falls from such a high place, he will probably be like the invisible man in the mechanical aquarium.

By then, his head will be broken and covered in jelly-like blood.

Zhu Ning frowned and was about to use his gravity-ignoring ability to pick her up. Zhu Ning was confident that he could catch her, but before he could do anything, a shadow flashed by.

A black shadow suddenly appeared, and Song Zhizhang hugged Lin Xiaofeng's body in mid-air. After landing, he rolled rapidly in the snow. Because of inertia, he was out of control and there was a huge rock in front of him.

That moment seemed to be deliberately stretched out. A gray-black substance spread out from the back of Song Zhizhang's hand, and in the blink of an eye, a cocoon made of cement was formed, directly wrapping Lin Xiaofeng and himself inside.

Bang!

Song Zhizhang's back hit the boulder with a dull thud, but he was fine. The boulder was directly cracked.

Zhu Ning's heart beat faster. After visiting so many polluted areas, she thought she had become indifferent to them. The main thing was that this was not a risk for her, she had to be responsible for a little girl.

She slid over quickly, intending to rescue them, but was stunned when she saw them. They were covered in snow, with broken stones scattered all over the ground behind them.

Song Zhizhang hugged Lin Xiaofeng, and all the exposed skin on his body had changed. His neck and the back of his hands seemed to be petrified, or like some kind of gray vine bark.

He formed a concrete wall that could even shatter stones. Lin Xiaofeng was completely protected inside, without losing a single hair.

It was the first time that Zhu Ning saw Song Zhizhang's special ability, which was defensive.

Song Zhizhang loosened his defenses, and Lin Xiaofeng stood up from his arms. The strangeness on his body began to fade away, and the back of his hand turned pale, returning to the look that Zhu Ning recognized.

Song Zhizhang stood up. His first reaction was to check on Lin Xiaofeng to make sure he was not injured. He asked, "Which track did you choose?"

Zhu Ning reacted and his voice became lower. "Ahem, it's super difficult..."

Song Zhizhang: “…”

For Zhu Ning, there is no point in going out to play sports if he doesn't choose the difficult mode. What's the fun in the easy mode? If he wants to play, he should play big.

Song Zhizhang lowered his brows and said, "You can't let a minor play on a super difficult track."

No one is as bold as Zhu Ning. Lin Xiaofeng is only ten years old.

Zhu Ning coughed lightly. She had originally wanted to say that she would definitely not let anything happen to Lin Xiaofeng. Moreover, when she was a child, she also played around every day, took risks everywhere, and often fell and got injured.

Taking risks involves risks.

Then he shut up quietly.

Song Zhizhang: "She should go to the underage area and play under the guidance of a coach."

Zhu Ning admitted his mistake directly, "I was wrong."

Lin Xiaofeng stood cautiously behind Zhu Ning, "Actually, I wanted to play this myself."

When making the choice, Zhu Ning asked for her opinion.

Song Zhizhang: "Xiaofeng, you can't always spoil her."

Lin Xiaofeng also shut up.

Zhu Ning felt that Song Zhizhang was really angry. She had never seen him so angry before.

Song Zhizhang must really like Lin Xiaofeng. People will only get angry because of things they care about. Song Zhizhang was able to remain elegant before because he didn't care about anything.

Now he has it.

Zhu Ning thought of Song Zhizhang's special ability, which was like forming a cement wall and a cocoon to wrap Lin Xiaofeng inside.

No wonder Song Zhizhang was willing to let Zhu Ning live in the Noble Queen Inn. Theoretically, Zhu Ning almost lost her mind that time. If she degenerated into a pollutant, Song Zhizhang's ability should be able to form a closed space to trap her directly.

Zhu Ning carefully recalled the system props he had obtained. Apart from a three-dimensional defense space, it had no defensive capabilities at all.

As expected, Song Zhizhang used to be a demon hunter, and this ability is quite valuable.

Song Zhizhang wanted to say something, but he felt that he had no right to speak, so he suppressed his words.

He shouldn't have spoiled the fun like that; they were having a lot of fun. He brushed off the snow and gravel on Lin Xiaofeng's body and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Xiaofeng shook her head, she was not hurt.

Zhu Ning no longer dared to take Lin Xiaofeng out to play, so he took her to the simple track for minors nearby, with Song Zhizhang walking in front.

Lin Xiaofeng was afraid that Song Zhizhang would be angry, so she took the initiative to hold his hand.

Zhu Ning, who had done something wrong, was following behind.

"Song Zhizhang." Zhu Ning looked at his back and suddenly called him.

Song Zhizhang paused and turned to look at her. Zhu Ning was wearing a ski suit and goggles, and didn't look like someone who could do anything serious.

Zhu Ning asked, "Can you do me a favor?"

The author has something to say:

I owed you 70,000 yuan for an extra chapter. I’m going to pay it back today. It’s two for one!

Guess who Ning Bao chose as his guardian. We are about to enter a new dungeon~
