As an ordinary person, Yang Jia always thought she lived in an ordinary world,
Until one day, she unintentionally received a part-time job...
"Number 37651, welcome to be a temporar...
Although they had been connected before, it still took Yang Jia some effort to enter the system without Li Bai noticing.
The instinct to disguise herself that she learned in the game system was of great help at this time. At least it allowed her to quietly replace the original system and continue working without revealing any flaws.
Walking out of the room and seeing the scene outside through the surveillance screen, Li Bai's face became solemn.
After most humans moved away, Earth's cities grew increasingly deserted. Shops closed, the artificial trees lining the streets quickly withered and died without maintenance, and no robots came to clean up the garbage. Walking through such an environment, one felt an inexplicable sense of desolation.
Everything clearly indicates that this is an abandoned city.
But even so, at least the city still existed peacefully. However, now, the flames and smoke after the explosion were everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of poison.
But there was no one.
It was like a battlefield left after a fierce war, clean and quiet.
Reports continued to trickle in over the comms. It wasn't just this one location, nor just this one floor, that was under attack. With only a few humans left on Earth, they were working to gather everyone from around the world here so they could all board the spacecraft. These people were being stationed on various floors.
I don't know how this incident was organized, but they were able to launch such suicide-like attacks in so many places at the same time.
The extent of damage varied across the explosion site. Reports indicate the most severe explosion occurred on the lowest levels, even affecting the main pillars supporting the entire city. Without repairs, the city will likely slowly tilt and eventually collapse completely.
This process will not be too fast and is estimated to be delayed for about a month.
In other words, they only had a short time to prepare before they had to leave. Although the spaceport was suspended high in the sky, if the main structure of the city collapsed, it would inevitably be affected. Even if humans could leave the city to live, the destruction of the spaceport would cut off all access to Earth.
At this time, Li Bai received a special message.
Although they were moving quickly, there were still some stubborn people in various places who were unwilling to leave their homeland easily and therefore did not move here. And the news Li Bai received was that these people also set off explosions in the area where they lived.
The difference was that when the explosion occurred, they did not leave but stayed at the scene. As a result, most people died in the explosion, and the few survivors suffered severe burns, scalds, and injuries from fragments of the explosion, some of which had penetrated their internal organs and were beyond treatment.
"Be careful when searching, there may be people at the explosion site!" Li Bai quickly sent this message out, reminding everyone to be vigilant. There were no casualties in the explosion in this city, which seemed very strange!
At this moment, Li Bai suddenly felt that his mecha had lost control, but before the creepy feeling took shape, everything returned to normal.
No…it wasn't like she was back to normal, she just felt different now than before.
Originally, Li Bai relied entirely on the keyboard to operate her mech, which required incredibly high hand speed. Furthermore, the mech's reaction speed was always insufficient to meet her expectations. After all, Li Bai's physique was incredibly strong, and her reaction speed was astonishingly fast. Once she got used to that speed, donning the mech felt like wearing thick armor. While it offered some safety, it significantly impacted her performance.
But now, that heavy feeling disappeared, and she felt as if she was this mecha. She didn't need keyboard operation. As long as she thought about it in her mind or made corresponding movements with her body, the mecha would be able to respond immediately. The reaction speed was not much slower than her own, and it was absolutely as easy as using one's own arm!
But Li Bai didn't have time to figure out what was going on, because at this moment, she suddenly had a very dangerous intuition, so she subconsciously rolled to the side, and the mecha followed her action. The next moment, the place behind her that had just been vacated made a deafening explosion, and even blew Li Bai's mecha away.
It can be imagined that if she had stayed where she was, the power of the explosion would most likely have directly destroyed the mecha and injured Li Bai who was inside the mecha.
This is definitely not the power of ordinary explosives. You have to know that these cities were built with endurance in mind, and the materials used are very strong. It is impossible for ordinary explosives to achieve this effect. Therefore, this is likely one of the banned weapons.
Now Li Bai can be sure that this is not just a doomsday carnival held by a group of people who do not want to leave the earth, but also want to use this opportunity to kill him.
In fact, this is not surprising. After all, Li Bai is not a RMB. Although everyone has to obey her under the pressure of survival, there are so many people on the earth, and there will inevitably be a few who are not afraid of death. After their psychology is distorted, they would rather stay here than leave.
It is precisely because they don't want to live anymore and don't care how long the earth can last that they use those lethal weapons that have always been expressly prohibited.
However, they only have this one chance.
Li Bai opened the communication and sent out messages in an orderly manner, asking people to investigate the matter.
Since restricted weapons were used, it was relatively easy to track them down, and then follow the clues and apprehend the perpetrators. This kind of thing is just a matter of playing with the psychological barrier; once you're on guard, it's very difficult to succeed. After all, controlling all the information and making Li Bai stand still for several minutes is not so easy.
"How did you dodge it?" More than one person asked this question on the communication.
It was not until this moment that Li Bai had the energy to think about how he had managed to dodge it.
There is no doubt that at that moment she seemed to be assisted by God, and she actually achieved physical and even mental operations that were theoretically impossible.
Of course, the one who helps her is not God, but a human being.
"Yang Jia, is that you?" Li Bai asked on the way back.
The screen flashed, and a line of words appeared, "Yes." There was no point in denying it. Now that it had been exposed, it was impossible to conceal it anymore. Anyway, he had helped a lot this time. Even if Li Bai wanted to settle the score later, he would have to consider his contribution.
She had said she would always be with Li Bai. Those weren't just sweet words of love; they were a promise Yang Jia was sure he could keep.
At this moment, Li Bai didn't try to figure out why Yang Jia was able to do this. She placed her fingers on the keyboard and randomly typed in some letters, saying, "This feeling is very interesting."
"What does it feel like?" Yang Jia asked while typing on the screen.
Li Bai said, "I remember the mecha was equipped with a voice output device. Why don't you use it?"
The next moment, she understood why. A mechanical and stereotyped voice, devoid of any emotion, with even a flat tone, came out of the loudspeaker. "You don't want to hear that."
"Really?" Li Bai asked back, "But I think it's quite interesting. Changing the voice occasionally is quite refreshing."
"Oh? Really?" The voice coming from the loudspeaker instantly changed to a very charming female voice, so soft that Li Bai trembled all over. But she immediately reacted and realized that it was Yang Jia who was being naughty.
But he had started the war himself, and he would rather lose the battle than the people. Li Bai immediately straightened his expression and nodded, saying, "Of course, if your voice appeared at certain critical moments, it would be more interesting."
"..." Yang Jia was suspiciously silent for a moment, but she was a system after all, and it was impossible for her to admit defeat in such a matter. She quickly changed to a rough male voice, "What about this?"
"Ahem..." Li Bai choked, "Think about your own gender. It's against the rules to use a male voice."
"The system has no gender." This time the voice changed to a mechanical one.
"I was wrong." Li Bai raised his hands in surrender. While this kind of fun was certainly enjoyable, Yang Jia's identity was too much of a cheat; she could switch voices constantly. Li Bai finally realized that he was completely at a disadvantage in this game. If Yang Jia really got mad, he would be driven mad sooner or later.
The relaxing time passed in a flash. After arriving at the office building, Li Bai left the mecha, and the two had to separate temporarily.
"Have you found the person?" Li Bai asked Zhuo Tianyang who came over.
Zhuo Tianyang shrugged, "I found it, but it's a bit troublesome."
"What's the meaning?"
"You'll know if you go in and take a look." Zhuo Tianyang pointed to the conference room, "Someone is here to protect them."
When Li Bai entered, she saw Zheng Yizhao sitting there quietly. She walked to the conference table and tapped her fingers on it lightly. When Zheng Yizhao came to his senses, she asked, "What do you mean?"
"Since you are leaving, don't bother with these people. Leave them to me, and I will take people away." Zheng Yizhao said.
Li Bai's brows twitched slightly. "You mean, you will stay on Earth with them?"
"Yes." Zheng Yizhao nodded with a calm expression.
He is not crazy.
Li Bai pursed his lips and asked, "Why?"
"No reason." Zheng Yizhao looked at her. "Everyone has their own aspirations, and this is my choice. There will always be someone who stays, right? It's not surprising that one of them is me."
