Chapter 209: Zootopia

Qiao Song led Luo Liang and Shi Yuemiao all the way to success. When they talked about blowing up the company, the two showed two extreme mental states.

Radical Luo Jing thinks Qiao Song can just go straight to Huanglong and kill Wu Ma to take over himself:

"That's what our president wanted to do at the time. If we couldn't defeat them, we wouldn't have to leave our entire guild to work like slaves for others."

"The only rest time every day is to take the last bus for an hour to another job. There is nothing else in my mind except work."

Shi Yuemiao sighed: "In this broken field, what is the difference between humans and machines!"

Luo Liang, who was holding the keyboard, patted her shoulder and said, "The machine needs to rest, otherwise it will overheat. People are different. When we are hungry and tired, we will eat, sleep and buy coffee by ourselves."

But the coffee and food in this broken world are just stimulants for overtime work. If you don’t eat them, you will just feel weak, but if you eat them, you will have to work until you die.

The conservative Shi Yuemiao thought of the coffee that made people's heart stop, and his expression suddenly changed:

"Since the power of the Horse at Noon cannot be underestimated, I think we can divert the trouble to other zodiac signs. The Dragon at Chen is a good target, or the Tiger at worst. I remember that the relationships between the zodiac signs in the north are pretty good. We can find the least popular Snake at Si and plant an undercover agent there to leak the core secrets of both sides and go straight to Huanglong..."

She became more and more excited as she spoke, and towards the end she seemed to be saying that it would be best if the entire Zootopia were in chaos, the company collapsed, and no one had to go to work.

After hearing this, even the radical Luo Liang felt that she was a bit conservative.

"Wait, don't move yet."

Qiao Song put away the net and did not continue climbing up for the time being.

The two girls who were chattering just now suddenly fell silent.

Qiao Song and the other three climbed up like a jade pendant, stopping at each floor to rest for a while and look for people, but they never met any other players.

In fact, looking from the outside, you can see that there are at least dozens of shelves here, standing around like skyscrapers.

According to this probability, the chance of meeting a player halfway is indeed not very high.

What Qiao Song saw was not a person, but a shop.

"Coffee shop?"

Chief Secretary Shi Yuemiao suddenly recalled countless not-so-pleasant memories of overtime work.

This thing is simply Wu Ma's domain, something that every working person doesn't want to touch when they are sober.

"Sister Qiao, do you want to..."

Qiao Song flipped to this floor easily, observed the left and right for a while, and found that other areas did not seem to have the tendency to be stimulated by games. Instead, bursts of aroma came from this familiar coffee shop.

"I'll get some supplies. You guys stay up there and don't move. Just help watch the wind for a while."

Shi Yuemiao said "oh" and saw Qiao Song nimbly passing through the dilapidated door (which she had broken before) and rummaging through the cabinets in the store. Soon, the sound of grinding coffee beans was heard, as if he had already started preparing to make coffee.

etc.

"The supplies Sister Qiao mentioned are coffee?"

Luo Liang was also dumbfounded.

In the data background of her computer that is now open in real time, coffee is a high-energy polymer. Drinking this thing is like installing a rogue software, and all the tasks that come with the file must be completed.

Almost no employees are willing to drink coffee on their own initiative, and their immediate supervisors are no exception.

But thinking back carefully, it seemed that this lady had drunk several cups of coffee during the previous office battle.

Under the admiring gazes of Shi Yuemiao and Luo Liang, Qiao Song came back very quickly. She jogged all the way, and although she was not holding a coffee cup in her hand, there was a strong fragrance on her body.

"Sister Qiao, did you drink all the coffee?"

Qiao Song exerted force and threw the rope with the hammer to a higher floor: "No, it's packed. If the water pipe hadn't exploded, I could have made a few more cups."

"Did the water dispenser explode?"

After confirming that the rope could bear the weight, Qiao Song quickly asked the two to continue climbing up. They also understood what Qiao Song meant by the water pipe exploding.

I saw a lot of strange liquid slowly flowing out of the floor of this floor. It looked like water, but it had a strong reflective property, a bit like flowing translucent metal.

"Hurry up and run up. If I'm not mistaken, the river water has been pumped to every floor. The amount of water pumped is too large. The lower the floor, the more water there is. Being soaked in this water is much more painful than death."

Qiao Song grabbed the net and quickly climbed up: "Although I don't know if you still have a spot, but if you are soaked in this river, there is no point in resurrecting."

Luo Liang was shocked when the word "resurrection" came out. This was news that only the core players of the guild knew.

Guild leaders who surrender to the Zodiac or are taken in by the Zodiac will receive shrine fragments from the Zodiac, awaken the shrine, and have a chance to be resurrected.

Many of the players who work here at Wu Ma worked overtime until they died and were "reincarnated".

Qiao Song heard the news: ...

Awesome.

What magic power does Wu Ma have that allows him to control so many players to go to work? What kind of magic power does he have that allows him to control so many players to go to work?

After they discovered that water started to seep out of every floor, they rarely stayed on a certain floor to look for players.

During the climb, in addition to positioning, Luo Liang and Shi Yuemiao were also slowly recalling what work they did in the company when they were controlled.

Shi Yuemiao: "What I do seems to be similar to the real world. I help my boss review and summarize all the company's chores in advance, and help our guild president. Oh, and later it was Ms. Hao Meili, the NPC with all hair."

Halfway through the conversation, the girl who was still crawling up suddenly stopped moving, and her eyes went blank. A few seconds later, she almost let go and fell, but was caught by Qiao Song.

[Being a secretary, in addition to efficient time management and coordination and communication skills, the most important thing is confidentiality. ]

[Punishment under confidentiality agreement, @# speech prohibited%……]

Luo Liang, who was behind Shi Yuemiao, held the rope against her back with one hand and pressed a few keys on the keyboard with the other hand: "Yuemiao, come back to your senses! We are not in Wu Ma's zodiac area now."

Luo Liang's computer dual-head USB flash drive was still inserted in Shi Yuemiao's wrist. While she was waking up her friends in the background, she also transferred her audio software to the computer.

With the help of the two, Shi Yuemiao quickly came back to her senses with a frantic expression: "This is a crappy company. Even if I'm not allowed to speak, I'll speak anyway! I'm just beeping for her - beeping -"

Luo Jing's forehead was sweating: "Wait, my computer speaker is using the green harmony version, don't use swear words."

Shi Yuemiao took a deep breath, calmed down, and then said: "I just remembered that the content of the contract hidden in my mind seemed to be to help the company and the zodiac to establish an underground river trade system and get some by-products to the entire Infinite Highway."

When she spoke, her mouth opened and closed, and the sound came from the computer next to her.

Qiao Song had already led them to climb 20 floors in a row, so he took a break in the middle: "It's quite interesting to see your abilities working together."

Luo Liang sighed, "Right? Yue Miao and I are old partners in the guild. She opened up her authority to me and assisted in the allocation of resources. If we added another force output, we would have been killing people indiscriminately. But we were caught by these NPCs and our work was in vain."

After all, there was nothing the guild could do if they lost the battle, and it was a great achievement to be able to save their lives.

Luo Jing sighed as she pressed the keyboard, and suddenly looked up at the ceiling with a surprised expression: "Wait, the warehouse we want to go to is not far away, but the data nearby has changed to a certain extent. Large groups of different data streams have gathered together, which looks a bit wrong..."

Qiao Song looked up from the corridor, glanced at the floors above, and came back and said, "There should be a new game generated upstairs. I heard someone's voice, and it all appeared suddenly."

She glanced down at the floor below again.

"We have just climbed up many levels. In a short period of time, the water from the river will not be able to climb up here along the pipe. I am going to go up and deal with the game above. Do you two want to stay here or come with me?"

Shi Yuemiao and Luo Liang couldn't help but look at each other.

They both said at the same time: "I'll go with you, she'll stay."

Shi Yuemiao was anxious, and Luo Liang covered her mouth with her hand: "I know you are anxious, but don't worry, my skills are indeed more suitable for auxiliary, but yours are almost the same, let's just go up, or neither of us should go."

The top player is right next to you. For auxiliary players, isn’t this a high-powered teammate who comes to your doorstep?

But with two squishy characters, we really can't bring out their advantages to the greatest extent.

"Or, we won't go up, but we can help you."

In the end, it was decided that Qiao Song would go upstairs alone, but he would take the other items given by the two.

Qiao Song had an extra shorthand notebook in his left hand and an extra USB pendant in his right hand.

【Chief Secretary's Notebook】

[Automatically generate the three tasks that need to be completed the fastest among the current notes, and automatically display a countdown reminder based on the urgency of the matter. ]

[Warm reminder, you have been called an experienced CEO secretary, and are temporarily marked as her boss. In the following time, no matter whether it is trivial matters in life or difficult problems at work, there will be a secretary to help you solve them step by step according to the priority! ]

【Programmer Remote Office USB Interface (Multiple Upgrades PLUS Version)】

[Stamping on the front side means you agree to the access permission, and inserting the stamped USB port on the back side means you are allowed to copy and access. Depending on the level of both parties, the remote sharing permission time is different. 】

Not to mention the one about the laptop, Qiao Song really didn't expect Luo Jing's ability to access permissions.

"Can this be used on me too?"

Luo Jing made an OK gesture: "I did similar work in Wu Ma's field, but I can't remember what data I helped him access. Even if you are a Zodiac-level figure, I, Luo Jingjing, can do it..."

Qiao Song took the initiative to stamp his arm. As soon as he turned the USB and plugged it in, Luo Liang on the other end hugged her computer screen and instantly entered the same state as Shi Yuemiao before.

Her body was stiff and her eyes were white, like a fish stunned by a huge wave of data, and she almost fainted.

Qiao Song quickly pulled out the USB. Shi Yuemiao had already caught Luo Liang, and supported her against the wall, pinching her philtrum fiercely: "Luo Liang, wake up! Liang Liang!"

Using one hand to block Shi Yuemiao's roar next to his ear, Luo Liang was stunned for a moment, then sat up suddenly, with arcs of electricity seeming to flash in his eyes.

"I'm fine, Sister Qiao, my brain just short-circuited."

Luo Liang shuddered, with an excited expression on her face: "Damn, this is the first time I've seen such a huge amount of data."

Why does it feel like it's even more massive than what I come into contact with when I work at Wu Ma?

Qiao Song hesitated. Luo Jing took a deep breath and made a five gesture this time: "Fifty seconds. Yue Miao will share the secretary ability with me later. After the processor expands its capacity, I can help you share your authority for 50 seconds."

The human brain is like a machine, with a lot of redundant data and folders that were created at some unknown time in the past, hidden away, and never opened again.

Luo Liang found a large number of such folders in Qiao Song's brain. Just a glance at them was more massive than all the work data she had seen in that terrible company in Wu Ma's field.

What did this sister do before?

Of course, without Qiao Song's permission, fifty seconds was only enough for her to briefly browse the file names. She didn't dare to open any of those files with red light without permission.

Luo Liang's job is to help Qiao Song check the panel location of the convenience store warehouse in advance and inform him.

After all, she had tried it remotely before, and the panel with the shelf had been hidden.

Qiao Song knew that the copy of Boss Cai had stood on the Infinite Highway for such a long time, it was impossible that he was really an angry idiot.

He is easily angered, but he will never expose his secrets to others.

Qiao Song went up to the upper floor and saw a guy who was both unexpected and reasonable.

"Welcome to all the lucky employees who were not washed away by the river. As long as you finish sorting and organizing the food and preparing it for the shelves, you can leave here and return to your original jobs."

A sunny doll with its head strangled and red eyes was hanging at the door.

At this time, in this level of space, there were several players with thick dark circles under their eyes, all appearing nearby.

As soon as I heard the voice of the Sunny Doll, the system in my mind also broadcast the same prompt sentence:

[Ding-ling-ling, welcome to the food section of the convenience store. Temporary store employees, please work hard to sort the food and complete today's work.]

A middle-aged man with dark circles under his eyes, as dark as a panda's, suddenly said in a vague tone: "I finally left Wu Ma's jurisdiction?"

He grinned dully, then turned and stumbled out: "I'm free, I'm free, I finally don't have to work overtime day and night--"

A thin wind chime line chased the man's back and immediately locked onto his head and limbs. It twisted the man around like wringing out clothes and threw him out.

"I just said that you are lucky to come to our place. The unlucky ones can only be drowned by the river, and the same goes for the disobedient ones. By the way, a warm reminder, if you are drowned by the river below, you will not be resurrected."

Sunny Doll's words made the group of office workers who had just escaped from the endless overtime hell feel the despair again.

The pair of eyes mixed with black and red slowly swept across the crowd, and suddenly, it paused.

The profile of a player just revealed in the corner made it shudder, but when it turned around, it was not the familiar guy it thought.

Qiao Song quickly took out a white box to disguise himself: ...

The Infinite Highway is so big, but it really is full of enemies.

Fortunately, I can change my face.

This sunny doll was actually the one she encountered when she was passing the novice copy on the Infinite Highway.

At that time, she encountered a bug that caused the warehouse on the display screen to explode, but she didn't expect that the sunny doll was still there.

The guy on the display screen probably doesn't know that she was the one who did it, otherwise he would have yelled at Qiao Song eight hundred times, asking her to be buried with the lost goods in the warehouse.

Boss Cai really didn't know that he summoned the Sunny Doll purely to extract the things in the river water as efficiently as possible before Qiao Song turned these games upside down.

He no longer expected to kill Qiao Song head-on. Anyway, when the time came, the water from the River of Life and Death would flow through this copy he had temporarily built and flood the entire area.

Since this old guy Chen Long asked him to get involved in the muddy water and attract fire, he will make the situation more chaotic. Who is afraid of whom?

Sunny Doll was temporarily transferred from the dungeon area.

It was also different from what Qiao Song had seen before. When he got closer, he found that the white cloth on it was pieced together again.

The cloth wrapped around the head had long been broken into countless pieces, and if you got closer you could still see traces of fine and dense stitching.

"Each player is responsible for a receiving area. You need to process the food handed to you by the robot. Once it passes the judgment, you need to eat it piece by piece with a small blade. Then you need to wait for the data to appear on the screen. Your work is done. Isn't it simple?"

Since Sunny Doll had already killed a middle-aged man, no matter how much the other players wanted to escape, they could only stagger into the empty studio and take the seats prepared in advance.

Each workstation is made of silver-white stainless steel, emitting a cold metallic luster. Qiao Song disguised herself as a middle-aged woman with heavy dark circles under her eyes. As soon as she sat down, the sunny doll turned her head instantly and stared at her.

"You, come here and sit next to me."

The rest of the players who chose to stay as far away as possible were secretly thankful that they were not targeted.

Only Qiao Song, disguised by his clothes, secretly glanced at the back of his hand.

She just turned her back, plugged in the USB briefly, and heard the prompt from Luo Liang remotely.

The little girl's voice was stuck, as if she had bitten her tongue.

As if a strong electric current was passing through her brain, Luo Liang, feeling extremely sour, gritted her teeth and told Qiao Song: "The panel is not far from you, probably to the upper left of where you are facing, near the ceiling."

Qiao Song recalled the place where the Sunny Doll was standing just now. It should be above the doll's head, where the rope was hanging.

What a coincidence this is not.

The doll, who didn't know that he had a big devil under his nose to monitor him, finally showed a terrifying smile.

"Okay, let's start delivering food now. Everyone must complete at least five food sample tests before they can leave their workstations and be free."

Every player sitting at a workstation felt that a black robotic arm made of wires soon appeared on the ceiling above their heads. The end of the arm kept breaking apart. In the long, snake-like tube, a spherical object was sliding and soon spit out a strange object.

A man not far from Qiao Song suddenly started to retch.

There were a bunch of huge eyeballs on the plate in front of him, one of which even had a patch of cosmetic contact lenses on it.

There was a piece of unformed chocolate sauce next to it.

[Ding——Please complete the pre-processing of a food! Evenly coat each eyeball with chocolate, pickle and dry the mouth strips, perform experimental skills, record data, and then package to complete one task indicator.]

How could Qiao Song remember that in the past, this job only required putting the raw materials into the shelf panel to complete it.

Boss Cai deliberately hid this panel and even added an artificial experimental effect. What is he afraid of or guarding against by making it so complicated?

Qiao Song secretly observed the other players out of the corner of his eye. Although everyone was very scared, their own lives were more important than the lives of others. Moreover, these human organs were obviously extracted from dead people. Everyone endured it and continued to work.

Qiao Song also picked up a few pieces of tongue from the box, processed them with other corresponding auxiliary materials in the auxiliary equipment next to them, and finally dried them.

The previous steps are not difficult, you just need to overcome the psychological fear. The hardest step is the last step.

A strange knife is placed in front of the player.

"Everyone must take a bite. Don't worry, I will monitor the changes in your bodies and will not let you die directly."

Sunny Doll narrowed his eyes and slowly observed every player here, and took a close look at Qiao Song: "The electronic screen will automatically record the effects of the props you just ate. Don't keep them for yourself, and don't try to cheat."

"Complete 5 tasks and you can go. That's not that hard, right?"

The Sunny Doll laughed out loud, its mouth opened wider than a ball, as if it could bite off a player's head with one bite, as if saying, if you don't eat these things, I will eat you.

Finally, a player with dark circles under his eyes swallowed his saliva, closed his eyes, scraped a piece of tongue jerky and ate it. After swallowing it whole, a set of data was displayed on the electronic screen next to him.

[Truthless person's mouth, after eating it, you must tell the truth, skill stability 40%. ]

Sunny Doll let out a cry and was very happy when he heard what he heard before. However, his expression quickly darkened after he saw the data of 40%.

“This pass rate is not high.”

It quickly leaned over, bit off the player's head with a snap, and then ate him whole.

“You need to be more serious when completing your work. If the pass rate cannot reach 60%, even if the product’s functions pass the test, it cannot be put on the market. Everyone needs to be attentive when working.”

Chew, chew! The meat in the Sunny Doll's mouth was swallowed, and it smiled, revealing its fangs dyed red and black.

"Otherwise, you can only give me extra food."

Soon, the other players worked more seriously, and with a fearless look on their faces, they tasted the food in front of them one by one.

Sure enough, depending on how seriously each person works, the final product effectiveness rate is indeed different.

Qiao Song was taking her time and prepared all the ingredients in front of her, but she didn't taste them right away. Sunny Doll soon noticed her.

"Why don't you eat?"

Qiao Song waited slowly for it to get closer, then suddenly touched his face and returned to his original appearance.

"you guess?"

The sunny doll that was almost in front of her suddenly turned from white to red, and its entire head swelled up instantly, like an angry tomato.

This face, this tone—

It will never be forgotten!

"It's you! It's actually you!!!"

The player who caused it to be torn apart by Boss Cai and who had to fight it back because the convenience store was short of employees, is actually here, and she is still alive!
