Chapter 122: The Tortoise and the Hare - I am the Hare
Chu Xiuyan has been a bit busy lately.
Essentially, he prefers a thrilling life, and although shuttling back and forth between the two worlds can fill the boring time in daily life, it occasionally causes some trouble.
For example, when the midterm exam and the reconstruction of the cyberspace in Youdu, two things that have nothing to do with each other, are combined?
There were always a few moments when Chu Xiuyan felt like he was in two scenes at the same time.
In the real world, the professional teachers are friendly: "The exam contents are marked out. This time we are testing cultural theory. Just remember and memorize as much as you can. Don't forget to hand in a painting before the deadline. The theme is man and nature. The monitor will be responsible for supervising the statistics."
Wasteland world, former desert kingdom? The designer who is now a demolition worker in Youdu is furious: "So! We have to demolish this wall and replace it with special materials such as special alloys and special fiberboards that are resistant to pressure and wear, light weight and high strength. At the same time, we have to embed built-in sensors and chips to facilitate monitoring and detection at any time! What? We don’t have these? Special materials - haven’t I already explained the structure and principle? Can’t you rule-based psychics in the ruins city even create raw materials from nothing?!"
[Quantum? Black technology, Dora Zai Zhe. ]
Chu Xiuyan noticed with sharp eyes? When he saw Zai Zhe's forced smile? He took two steps back to avoid the designer's spit, holding his breath, and crept past him holding the desert version electronic tablet.
As soon as they passed the rubble of the half-demolished city wall, they saw the Crawler and the half-hatched egg being surrounded and observed by the Red-clad Cultists.
He pretended not to see the creeper's gaze, and continued to move outward. After listening to the mutual probing between Chu Li and Bai Qu in Base No. 23, he successfully found a quiet, empty and relatively cool corner.
Chu Xiuyan was grateful that he had successfully avoided all the irrelevant things that might get him involved, and then he concentrated and prepared to recite the book seriously in order to face the upcoming midterm exam.
The system refused to help him cheat, a cold and heartless cyber creature.
The system hehe: [The cold-blooded cyber creature helped you transfer the exam information from another world. ]
Chu Xiuyan uttered a strange groan, and tried to open his eyes wide and cram the key points of knowledge into his brain. It was eight o'clock in the morning, and as the sun rose above his head, his back bent down from the upright position, and he leaned against the gravel, hiding in the shadow and falling asleep.
Until the sun sets, the system sees the host slowly wake up, stretches, and says happily: "Another day of hard study has passed."
System: [? What the hell are you learning?]
The same thing happened in the next few days. Chu Xiuyan struggled to cram a lot of knowledge into his head by maintaining his subjective efforts and procrastinating in action. He also witnessed how Youdu gradually integrated technological elements from an ordinary desert abandoned city to become... a wasteland cyber-mixed city in a tortoise shell.
After many renovations by designers, the outer wall of Youdu is now made of hard metal and high-strength materials, which can better withstand the wind and sand and harsh environment of the outside world than the previous walls made of mud and sand. Of course, the most important thing is that the outer wall seems to be movable.
"We adopted a modular design. The outer wall looks like a whole, but it is actually made up of multiple modules, equipped with various components such as monitoring, firepower equipment, and information collection. At the same time, the closely connected bottom adopts the mechanical transmission principle. You only need to press the move button in the main control room, and forty-eight mechanical axes will move on the sand - driving the entire Youdu to move! The speed is even much faster than that of vehicles!"
A bearded, excited designer burped, which made the people around him look disgusted, but no one could say a bad word about the new exterior wall structure and function he designed.
Being able to rebuild an abandoned city with almost no technology into a large mobile sand vehicle has already demonstrated the designer's superb skills and thinking ability.
Zai Zhe: "Not good? Meaning? I'm the one who provided the raw materials. Do you understand the fear of a martial arts player trying to understand physics?"
He complained, and the next second he saw the boy who was joining in the fun suddenly disappear.
Then the designer, who was surrounded and praised by countless people, turned around and said while burping, "The solar energy is almost replenished, so it's a good time to conduct a mobile test."
The people around joined in the fun.
Mingji, who had been flying in the sky, landed. Seeing that Zai Zhe seemed to be thinking about something, he couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Is there a meteorite falling from the sky?"
Zai Zhe looked at the empty seat beside him and said hesitantly: "Do you feel that... Yunyan seems to be quieter than before recently?"
Mingji looked up at the sky and thought for a while, "It seems... a little bit? Is it puberty, or rebellious period?"
"There is no way a two-month-old baby could be in puberty or the rebellious period," Zai Zhe said.
"…two months old? Are you serious?"
Mingji looked at Zaizhe as if he were a fool. Just as he continued to speak, the ground suddenly shook slightly, and then the clouds in the sky began to move... to be precise, Youdu was moving.
Many people climbed onto the outer wall and shouted, "Look! Youdu is really moving! My God, it's only been a few days, and that designer can actually move a city that has been abandoned for many years?!"
"It uses mechanical axes to move on the sand... It feels like a spider from a distance?"
"Speaking of Spiders…where are the captured Inhumans?"
"Like those people from the Knights, they are imprisoned in Base No. 23 next door... under the supervision of Mr. Chu Li."
"...Huh? Did you feel that the sky suddenly got dark?"
Finally? As soon as this sentence came out, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, leaving only the clattering sound of the mechanical shafts stepping on the sand.
The people lying on the city wall raised their heads stiffly. The designer standing on the podium widened his eyes and the bottle of wine in his hand fell to the ground.
I saw a crawler following the moving Youdu, and at its tail was the base No. 23 covered by scarlet blood crystals.
Chu Xiuyan recreated the scene of using the Crawlers to kidnap and bring back the people from Base 23.
He was still sitting on the dome, looking down at the countless terrified or shocked faces in the dark city. He raised his hand expressionlessly and made a "yeah" gesture to them, but his lips were trembling slightly, as if he was talking to himself.
The No. 23 base dragged by the crawlers moved much faster than Youdu, and soon left the latter far behind.
The designer on the podium seemed to be sprayed with exhaust gas in his face. He pulled his hair tightly and his frantic voice spread far away, "Crawler! Damn it! This is cheating! It's cheating! Technology can't lose to? God? Esotericism--"
In addition? A designer climbed onto the podium and yelled at his drunken and irritable colleague: "What do you think of biotechnology?! Isn't it cool to have three large monsters wandering in front or around? And, did you suppress those Red Cultists to stop summoning the other two?!"
The original designer denied it angrily, but the latter naturally didn't believe it, so they became more and more angry, and finally they had a fight on the podium.
Below, Mingji narrowed his eyes. A breeze swirled around him, bringing sounds from afar.
"... the right image or object... the content of the picture is called framing and composition... also called layout, business location? Then? It's, uh... uh what?"
Mingji listened to the boy's voice and originally intended to repeat it, but he couldn't understand what he meant at all, and his brows frowned instantly.
Zai Zhe thought seriously: "So, Yun Yan was infected with the virus?"
......
Chu Xiuyan sat high up on the blood crystal dome, reciting with a blank expression: "Abandon, abandon, give up. The tortoise and the hare race."
“I hate exams.”
"Abandon."
"The tortoise and the hare. I am the hare."
System: [...Host? Do you feel that your language function seems to be a little messed up? ]
【No.】
System: [What does Abandon mean? ]
【The Tortoise and the Hare.】
