Chapter 359: Comprehensive
Dawn City, 5:30 AM
Cold raindrops fell like silver threads, reflecting a hazy halo in the neon-stained air. The whole city seemed to be immersed in an electronic ocean of indigo and scarlet. The old town area below a hundred meters was as crowded and noisy as a honeycomb, while the high-rise buildings in the inner city above a hundred meters were like silent giants, overlooking this steel jungle that had been gnawed by doomsday.
Jian Xuwei stood on the balcony of an arc-shaped high-rise building in Xinggang District. The hem of her black windbreaker was lifted by the damp and cold night wind, revealing a tactical tights lined with dark silver metal fibers.
She stood there motionless, her body slightly tense, the tights outlining the graceful curve of her hips, her long legs standing straight, her breasts raised high, pushing the neckline wide open, snow-white and deep.
"Yongcheng Port was attacked by the Red Man Ghost for the second time today. We detected that the peak power of the attacking creature exceeded the destruction level." A dull mechanical hum came from behind. The voice of a man covered in dark red power armor came from behind the mechanical mask. Energy lines flowed slowly in the gaps of the armor: "After killing for an hour and a half, the lifespan ended and died. We lost four engineers and more than 60 people from the Phoenix Society were killed."
"Did the launcher catch it?"
"Still the same, passive drone."
"knew."
She didn't look back, but tapped the balcony railing lightly with her index finger wearing a black tactical glove. Amid the sound of metal rubbing against leather, the man in heavy power armor lowered his head and retreated as if he had received a silent command, and the hydraulic joints made a mechanical grinding sound.
Jian Xuwei frowned as she looked at the distant outline of the city. The two giant city walls were like cliffs of the world, completely isolating the inner city, the old city and the outer city of Dawn. The densely packed weapon towers and signal lights of the outposts on the city walls flickered constantly like breathing, extending to the end of the sight. City Wall No. 1 was like a natural moat, isolating the zombies and ordinary weird bodies outside, and seemed to imprison the people in the city forever in this doomsday city.
The neon lights suddenly flashed violently.
A black shadow swooped down from the sky, leaving an arc-shaped trajectory in the rain, and landed steadily on the railing beside Jian Xuwei. The black shadow walked into the light and shadow. It was a handsome face that was obviously young but already had countless vicissitudes of life.
Jiang Yun.
"Nine hours ago, the Silent City in Luling Forest was activated. Your people in Jinhai should have received the news." Jiang Yun shook off the raindrops on his windproof jacket and said quickly.
"The Silent City has regional radio waves coming out. The main city and the Silent City have been connected. Mochizuki Shinji actually opened that city out of the Star Abyss."
“He didn’t open it alone.”
Jiang Yun smiled and said, "There is also a super-large train convoy, but Silent City seems to have protected this train convoy. It has not been publicized, but people in the city already know about it."
He said, looking at Jian Xuwei: "It's Longshan No. 1 and Infinity!"
"Lin Xian and Shi Diyuan?" Jian Xuwei finally turned her head. The huge holographic billboard on the outer wall of the high-rise building splashed red light on half of her face, while the other half was immersed in shadow.
"right."
Jian Xuwei's eyes flickered. "Just now, Zhou Mingyuan invited me to Silent City tomorrow. It is said that he wants to discuss a large manufacturing project with Silent City. People from the Wen family will also be there."
"Oh."
Jiang Yun immediately chuckled: "The people from the Federation are very quick. It seems that not only your Finger Group, but also the people from Silent City are not going to let it go."
Jian Xuwei's eyes darkened when she heard that, and she immediately looked up at the night sky: "Star Abyss No. 5 is getting closer and closer, and the Phoenix Society will gradually evacuate. After a while, the evacuation points of Luling, Baisha, Changuan, Xilin, Jinhe, Kangcheng, and Quancheng will all be taken by the Federation. It will be a matter of time before Yongcheng Port is taken. But the strange thing is that since the people in the underground city came out of Silent City, they seem to be... a little nervous."
"Really?" Jiang Yun frowned: "Is it because of Lin Xian?"
"Do you think the Crimson World has set its sights on Lin Xian?"
"One hundred percent." Jiang Yun blurted out. He tilted his neck and took a long breath.
"The mechanical ability is related to the Silent City. That means Lin Xian must have fought with the people from the Crimson World."
"Should we meet him? But he probably doesn't want to appear in the sight of the Federation." Jian Xuwei looked at Jiang Yun
Jiang Yun nodded: "It seems that before they enter Jinhai, I have to meet this old friend first..."
"Jinhai..." Jian Xuwei's cold and arrogant eyebrows slightly frowned: "The people from the Phoenix Society should be here soon. The abnormal expansion of Star Abyss No. 5 has also caused abnormal movements in the other 12 Star Abysses. Do you think the people from the Phoenix Society will have a head-on conflict with Dawn City?"
Jiang Yun sighed softly, looked into the distance, and said helplessly
"Who knows? Natural disasters are troublesome enough, and there are also man-made disasters."
…
The sky was still shrouded in darkness, and the quiet city that had just escaped from the danger zone seemed like a city that never sleeps, busy everywhere.
In the cloud area, in the Japanese-style courtyard, the original house of Cha Jifeng was now empty. The four walls had turned into holographic light screens. Tens of thousands of surveillance images from various areas of the Silent City converged into countless blue light spots. Everything was being quickly processed by Mochizuki Shinji's quantum core.
Shinji Mochizuki was standing in the center at this time, watching the vehicles and convoys entering the berths and ground shelters of the Silent City one after another in the picture, and seemed to be thinking about something.
The old man who was fishing put away his fishing rod, sat quietly in the corner of the hall, and trimmed the dead flowers with a pair of scissors, making a rustling sound.
"You shouldn't hesitate." Suddenly, the old man said in a low and hoarse voice.
"I have an independent thinking personality. The adjective 'hesitation' only measures the time taken for my calculation process and does not represent my emotions or stance." Mochizuki Shinji responded calmly.
"Is there news from Dawn City? What do you think about it?"
"According to preliminary calculations, the chance of Silent City successfully entering Yongcheng Port is no more than 8%."
Shinji Mochizuki looked at the holographic screen in front of him and said, "This does not include the interference factors related to darkness. There is also a variable in the reason why the Crimson World is expanding the No. 5 star source. On this issue, the conservative plan should be to bypass the City of Dawn and unite with the Phoenix Order. However, I have performed 360,000 march calculations, and the probability of Silent City entering the polar region is the same as that of Yongcheng Port."
"When too much key information is missing, calculations and deductions are meaningless." The white-haired old man lowered his head to trim the dead branches and said in a hoarse voice, "It's troublesome, really troublesome. You can hide from the dark mark, but you can't hide from people. Dawn City will not give up the fight for Yongcheng Port. It is the basis of productivity. You revealed the information of entering Yongcheng Port. In the eyes of Dawn City, you will be considered to want to negotiate."
"Trade, resources, it doesn't matter." Shinji Mochizuki's face was calm. A mechanical column slowly rose from the ground. Inside was the brown-red flesh and blood tissue [Dark Erosion Cells] preserved in a freezer. He looked at the culture dish and said softly: "The Crimson World is conducting dangerous research. If they are cooperating with Dawn City, then there must be some conditions and factors that exceed the survival risk brought by the expansion of Star Abyss No. 5. This may be the key."
After saying that, he turned around, his nano pupils shrank slightly, and said
"Under current circumstances, the Phoenix Order has gradually withdrawn from the Asia-Pacific region. Unless there is a threat to their survival, they will not intervene in the region radiating from Dawn City. Therefore, without other variables, Silent City cannot avoid this storm."
"Hmm~" The old man hummed softly without saying anything.
"Do you think my analysis is emotional?" Mochizuki Shinji looked at the old man and asked calmly.
"No, I added some emotional words, but it's still a cold piece of machine." The old man responded indifferently.
Mochizuki Shinji smiled and raised a finger: "Let me try and rephrase it."
He seemed to be in high spirits, his face showing a bit of solemnity, and he said in an analytical and heavy tone: "Dawn City left Finger Group to carry out the Sky Dome Project and starship manufacturing. Now, after we left Xingyuan, they sent us a cooperation invitation as soon as possible. Could this be related to the key research we touched on the Crimson World of White City? Well, this inference is the most unrealistic but crucial."
"Even if we consider it rationally, for Dawn City, our Silent City itself is a key productive force. How could Chu Zhaonan let us enter Yongcheng Port so easily? Let me think, the people from Dawn City are coming to us to provide a large number of starship carrier construction orders that Silent City cannot complete in a short period of time? Perhaps they will also provide us with a part of Jinhai's industrial base? Oh, yes, it is also possible that Yongcheng Port will be given to us, but our No. 2 City will have to dock in Dawn City first for some reason. This is enough to give us a headache, right..."
"You don't learn well enough." The old man continued to prune the branches: "Do you know why?"
Shinji Mochizuki walked over with his hands in his sleeves and smiled, squatting in front of the old man and said, "Is there any loophole in my analysis?"
"It's impossible for humans to be so thorough and have their own stance on every issue," said the old man.
Shinji Mochizuki nodded seriously, and then he stopped talking, stood up and turned around.
"Lin was very thoughtful, with a critical timing and a life-or-death strategy. Apart from the emotional factors he showed, wow... he is even less of a human than I am."

The old man cut off a dead branch with his scissors, paused slowly for a moment, and then continued to prune.
…
In the train parking area, hundreds of engineers from Longshan No. 1 have been busy. Sensu Shun is the person in charge of the Technical Research City. He is leading a group of engineers from the Silent City and hundreds of various types of drones and construction sequence vehicles to enter the site, preparing to repair and transform the train for Shi Diyuan and his team.
With the livelihoods of more than a thousand people to take care of, Shi Diyuan and Ning Jing were both pragmatic people, so they started the all-terrain drive transformation project directly.
In addition to Longshan No. 1, several train convoys also accepted the Silent City renovation project. Of course, they were all charged. In addition, some other convoys did not plan to carry out drive renovation due to heavy losses, but invested the funds in weapon renovation. After all, after they arrived in Jinhai, they planned to go directly north to follow the Dawn Center. This section of the road passed through several coastal metropolises, and the risk was relatively smaller than the edge of Xingyuan.
On the other hand, the Queen Mo, which had no such concerns, seemed much quieter. The technological appearance of the train was unique among all doomsday trains, and it was parked quietly in the corner.
Except for carriage No. 1, the lights in other carriages have been turned off for rest, but at this time, countless whispers are taking place in those carriages with the lights turned off.
"Can you believe it? We actually made it out of Xingyuan alive."
"What's there to be unbelievable about? Following Queen Mo is a blessing..."
"Oh, it's just too lonely. What do you think that woman was thinking? She recruited a dozen beautiful women to get on the car, but she didn't allow us to communicate with each other..."
"That's right. Those women are the leftovers of others. It's okay to communicate with them as teammates."
"But didn't the boss say that she has mysophobia and doesn't allow men and women to have sex in her car, so that's why she made this rule?"
"Bullshit, she did it on purpose. I heard from the pony in the next caravan that men who hold back their yang energy will have their superpowers and genes evolve faster. I guess that must be the reason."
"Oh my god, Queen Mo actually cares about our health..."
"Dude, you're licking too much. Be careful not to suffocate."
"But the boss said that he will give us some free time tomorrow. I heard that there is a special street for customs in the Silent City..."
"Wow, I must go check it out!"
"You guys go ahead. In my heart, there is only Queen Mo. She is the most perfect woman. She has an unbeatable figure, those breasts, that ass, that look. Damn, it's worth dying for just once."
"Indeed, her figure is too ugly. No, I can't help it..." Someone turned over in a hurry.
At this time, the licking dog spoke again: "What I can't stand the most is the way she looks at me like garbage, it's really..."
"Are you a pervert?"
…
In carriage number one, Monica was bathing naked in a luxurious bathtub with red wine placed beside her and mist rising. She closed her eyes slightly, not caring about the obscene words in her ears. The reason she used her supernatural powers was because Zhou Lei, who could not even be detected by radar, was imprisoned alone in one of the carriages.
Monica is not only a woman with a strong desire for control, but also a woman with strong principles. Since she has taken on this responsibility for Lin Xian, she will definitely not allow him to make any mistakes, thereby ruining her reputation as Queen Mo.
Soft music was playing in the car. While Monica was enjoying her bath, she recalled the details of her escape from Xingyuan. Her calm heart couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
Lin Xian's face appeared in her slightly closed eyes, and she said
"Lin Xian, Lin Xian, I always say that I, Monica, never make mistakes when it comes to men. So...how can I conquer a man like you?"
She picked up the red wine, but her thoughts were suddenly interrupted. Monica, who was lying in the bathtub, suddenly fixed her eyes, and she slipped out of the water like a slippery snake.
Because at this moment, her sound blade ability keenly captured a sneaky figure who came to the outside of the Queen Mo's carriage!
