Demons have no morals
Pei Shu was already far away from District 2 in the car, and the subsequent disputes had nothing to do with him.
Pei Shu's family was bombed. He has no relatives in District 2, and the only person he has a bond with is the eldest daughter of the Lu family.
Pei Shu was alone when he came back from outside the wall, and he is also penniless now.
The tall buildings receded into the distance, and through the window one could hear explosions in the distance. Zhu Ning had turned the place upside down, and it would take several days to clean up the mess. Pei Shu guessed that Prometheus would definitely send someone to hunt him down, so he would minimize the mistakes.
It means that being with Zhu Ning is very dangerous.
At this time, Zhu Ning was sitting in the passenger seat. She didn't even look back at Pei Shu. She opened the medical kit and was injecting herself with a powerful healing agent.
Pei Shucai saw that Zhu Ning's right calf was bleeding. It was probably a fracture. The extremely high pressure caused cracks in her bones. The black mucus was not healing fast enough. She needed some medical assistance.
Zhu Ning tore open her calf pants and applied the medicine to herself skillfully after the injection. She lowered her eyes and wrapped herself very sloppily.
Zhu Ning noticed Pei Shu's scrutiny and looked up at him in the rearview mirror. Pei Shu had an unshaven beard and a dejected look, like a homeless man. Zhu Ning asked, "What are you looking at?"
Pei Shu: "I thought the devil wouldn't get hurt."
Pei Shu thought Zhu Ning was quite strange. Sometimes he looked like a devil, but sometimes he seemed no different from an ordinary psychic.
Zhu Ning: "The devil is an unlucky guy."
Pei Shu raised his eyebrows, feeling that Zhu Ning seemed to be no different from before. It is difficult to change a person's basic character.
Pei Shu: "You are not the same as before."
Just now Zhu Ning was like a divine soldier descending from the sky, but now Zhu Ning is recovering from his injuries and is not as aggressive as before.
"You know the saying 'pretend'? It's like putting a green onion in a pig's nose to pretend to be an elephant. People will think you're even more powerful. It's a psychological tactic." Zhu Ning said midway through his speech, "Teacher Pei, could you please pass me the box in the back car?"
It turned out that Zhu Ning was just pretending to be cool. Pei Shu found a silver suitcase from the back seat. When Zhu Ning opened it, there was a row of red liquid inside, which did not look like regular medicine.
Pei Shu asked, "What is this?"
Zhu Ning: "Concentrated pollutant."
Pei Shu: "What?"
How come he hasn't heard of it?
Zhu Ning: "My body needs to be replenished with pollutants."
Zhu Ning had health problems. Her heart was replaced by pollutants, and her system was half-dead, as if on the verge of collapse at any time. Zhu Ning couldn't find a suitable experimenter to repair it, so she found a half-baked one. The repairman tinkered with it for a long time and said: Miss Zhu, theoretically you need to replenish the pollutants.
Just like a vampire craving blood, Zhu Ning craved pollutants. Her hunger had to be relieved by eating pollutants. If she had time, Zhu Ning would find a polluted area to eat. If she didn't have time, she would eat ready-made pollutants.
After Zhu Ning finished bandaging one leg, he held a pollutant in his mouth to replenish his strength.
No wonder some people say Zhu Ning is a garbage purifier. Pei Shu thought, she is really a natural pollutant nemesis. The Alpha series experiments are really something.
Pei Shu: "You came to District 2 just to blow up the Kingdom of God?"
Zhu Ning: "I'm mainly looking for you, so I can blow up the Kingdom of God and see what their situation is."
Pei Shu: “…”
Miss Zhu, you were just passing by and spotted the Kingdom of God floating in the sky. Wouldn't you rather blow it up? If it succeeds, she'll be done with it in one fell swoop. If it fails, there's no loss. So, she just lit a firecracker and ran off. What kind of terrorist/stunt is that?
The people in the Kingdom of God must have been scared to death. I wonder what they would think if they knew that Zhu Ning had this reason.
Even if Zhu Ning failed, it was still a success, as it was enough for her to intimidate the other party.
Pei Shu: "Why are you looking for me?"
Zhu Ning asked a question: "What is the difference between the polluted area outside the wall and the area inside the wall?"
Pei Shu blurted out, "Most of the polluted areas inside the wall are closed. The main purpose of the demon hunters is to purify them. Most of the areas outside the wall are semi-open. Our main goal is to escape. In other words, being alive is victory..."
Pei Shu paused mid-sentence. What was this automatic reply feature for every question he asked? He definitely needed to see a psychiatrist again.
Zhu Ning raised his eyebrows. Everything was self-explanatory. Pei Shu was very suitable to be a teacher.
Zhu Ning turned on a projection screen and projected it in front of Pei Shu. "Do you recognize these coordinates?"
A coordinate appeared in front of Pei Shu's eyes. In fact, there was no map on the screen, just a number marking the approximate direction, in the northwest corner.
Pei Shu's face suddenly turned cold after seeing this. He changed his previous decadent and lazy look, and his right arm unconsciously tensed up.
I've been seeing a psychiatrist for four years, but it doesn't seem to be helping.
"Prometheus' coordinates," Zhu Ning stared at Pei Shu in the rearview mirror. "What's wrong? Are you having a psychological trauma?"
Pei Shu didn't say anything. Zhu Ning asked, "Did a teammate die or something?"
If someone else heard this, they might think Zhu Ning was impolite, but Pei Shu was very sensitive to Zhu Ning's emotions. She said this lightly, as if it was no big deal. After she finished speaking, she supported her chin and looked out the window.
Pei Shu guessed that her teammate had died.
In the wasteland world, the death of teammates is not uncommon. Seven out of ten demon hunters have experienced it. Zhu Ning's experience must be particularly tragic.
Pei Shu: "I won't feel bad about the death of my teammates. I probably won't feel anything if you die."
This kind of thing was too common for Pei Shu. There were no rules outside the wall, and life and death were all random. There was no time to grieve.
Zhu Ning said, "I won't be upset if you die."
Zhu Ning will not make friends with others casually. Her only real teammate is Lin Xiaofeng. Bai Cheng and Pei Shu are just employees.
Pei Shu felt that this was quite good. Without any emotional connection, it would be easier for everyone to escape if they encountered danger.
Zhu Ning had bandaged one of her legs, the bandage stained with blood. She let her leg air dry and said, "If you want to go, go. If you don't want to go, you don't have to go. Take your time to think about it. I won't force you."
Pei Shu was a little surprised. He thought Zhu Ning's personality was that if you don't want to go, I can force you to go by mentally contaminating you. She should have the means to force you.
Zhu Ning: "You can join or quit at any time."
This was almost the most relaxed treatment Pei Shu had ever heard of. There were no restrictions at all. Zhu Ning was very confident in himself and believed that Pei Shu would not run away halfway, or that he could be retrieved even if he ran away.
Zhu Ning: "As for the salary, you can try to propose conditions. If you need money, just tell me the amount and I'll apply for it. If it's too expensive, I can't afford it."
From what I hear, the person who paid the money should not be Zhu Ning, but someone else. Is there an angel investor behind Zhu Ning?
Zhu Ning: "Under the car seat is your joining gift."
Pei Shu fished under the car seat and found a brown paper bag filled with colorful balls of yarn.
“…” Pei Shu: “Thank you.”
Quite thoughtful.
"It's no big deal," Zhu Ning tapped the screen. "I'm going in this direction to meet up with my other guide. It'll probably take a whole day. If you want to think, you can do so on the way. If you want to quit, just jump out of the car. Once we're outside the safety wall, I'll let you join."
Pei Shu: "The other guide didn't join your battle?"
Zhu Ning: "I only paid her for the money outside the wall, not for the money inside."
Pei Shu: “…”
What is the strategy of frugality? After thinking about it, I can't afford it. Do you plan to go by yourself?
Pei Shu leaned against the back of the car and did not answer immediately. The driver in front of him changed gears and stepped on the accelerator very quickly.
He noticed that the car was driving very smoothly and was completely invisible, and it did not hit any other cars while driving on the highway.
The person driving the car must be very cautious and serious about his work. Going over the wall requires a good driver, and this person should be his companion in the future.
Pei Shu took a quick look and saw that this was a special vehicle for going outside the wall. Its appearance was similar to that of the antique off-road vehicles. No smart devices were used outside the wall if possible, and most of them were manual transmissions in order to reduce system failures and maximize people's subjective initiative.
The driver's seat has been specially modified, and the steering wheel is positioned lower than usual, which means that the driver is very short, or... very young.
Pei Shu asked, "How old is the driver? How tall is he?"
"Ten years old," Zhu Ning tilted his head and asked Lin Xiaofeng, "How tall are you now?"
Pei Shu heard a soft reply, "One meter five three."
Pei Shu: “…”
So the person driving the car now is a ten-year-old? Pei Shu asked, "Are you employing child labor?"
Zhu Ning: "Demons have no morals."
This devil is quite humorous. Pei Shu doesn't like children very much and always feels that they are unreliable, but he only looks at the results and not the process. As long as the car is driven well, it's fine.
Zhu Ning spent half a year training Lin Xiaofeng. She hoped that one day Lin Xiaofeng would be able to live well even if he left her. She taught him basic survival skills and even learned driving from a senior driver outside the country. She also learned simple mechanical maintenance. Lin Xiaofeng was serious about his work and had a good learning ability. He trained in driving day and night.
Zhu Ning: "This is my number one employee, Lin Xiaofeng."
Zhu Ning added, "If you join, you'll be my third employee."
It sounded as if Pei Shu would definitely join. Pei Shu asked, "Who's number two? Another guide?"
"Employee No. 2..." Zhu Ning paused and looked out the window. The scenery outside the window passed through her eyes, leaving nothing behind. Zhu Ning said in a deep voice, "He's dead."
Pei Shu had previously investigated Zhu Ning and knew who she was close to. Xu Meng considered her a captain, not an employee. Could it be Song Zhizhang? They were both in District 2. Pei Shu knew him. He was a good defensive shield. If Song Zhizhang were still alive, he would also be a good candidate for an escape. What a pity.
Lin Xiaofeng was in the driver's seat and tightened his fingers when he heard employee number two.
There was a strange silence in the car for a moment.
Zhu Ning's impulse to blow up the Kingdom of God was not fake. In addition to Xu Meng and Song Zhizhang, the innocent people who died in District 103, the superpowers and rebels who sacrificed their lives to stop the doomsday, she also remembered Fang Ying, the mechanical secretary of the cleaning center.
Fang Ying once asked Zhu Ning to ask a question to the creator of the robots if she saw them: what was the reason for their existence?
Zhu Ning didn't encounter it this time. She just attacked by surprise and her strength was not enough.
If she were given another chance, she would seek revenge and meet the true designer of this world, who also has a lot of questions.
Wait for next time.
Zhu Ning put the hood of his hoodie on his head, leaned against the car window and closed his eyes.
…
In unknown space.
The pure white human figure stood there, and there was a big problem with Prometheus' calculation. He calculated that Zhu Ning was the fire of salvation, and he successfully stole it.
But for the first time, his two underlying logics were completely contradictory. The Spark wanted to kill the first-class citizens he was loyal to, and even wanted to kill himself. Was the Spark wrong? Or was it the first-class citizens who made the mistake?
Prometheus was unable to get the best of both worlds. His designer probably never imagined that one day the savior would treat first-class citizens as enemies.
Prometheus had complicated feelings towards Zhu Ning. In his eyes, Zhu Ning was "raised" by him, which was equivalent to raising a powerful ungrateful person for him.
Two men's faces appeared on the big screen. On the left was Yuan Zhen, Minister of the Federal Security Department, and on his right was Ma Yizhang, head of military strategy. He was Fang Ying's superior and theoretically the real murderer of Cheng Mofei.
If Zhu Ning was at the scene, she should be very familiar with it, because she once opened Fang Ying's brain and saw Ma Yichang's name engraved inside Fang Ying's head.
Ma Yichang is sixty-four years old this year. He has used genetic drugs and his hair is not gray. He looks full of energy, but his brows are furrowed and he looks unhappy.
The Federation is holding Prometheus accountable after a meeting.
Ma Yichang has the information of all intelligent people, including Prometheus, of course. Only five people can read this information.
After Zhu Ning left, they cleaned up the mess. The public opinion in the second district was difficult to calm down. The biggest reason for the second district to be loyal to the Kingdom of God was because the Kingdom of God would be responsible for their safety.
Unexpectedly, the Kingdom of God chose to flatten the country directly, which made them realize that no matter how equal they seemed at ordinary times, the class gap could not be changed.
In addition, the first-class citizens were also dissatisfied. They were frightened by Zhu Ning and demanded an explanation. This was a great shame for the Kingdom of God.
Originally, various regions were in uprising, and now there is chaos both inside and outside, and human civil war may break out at any time.
The most important thing now is to appease the emotions of the first-class citizens. The president is almost a puppet. The federation is controlled by several aristocratic families, and their funding allows the Kingdom of God to have unlimited wealth.
Ma Yizhang asked, "Is this the fire you're looking for?"
He suppressed his anger, and outsiders couldn't even see that he was angry, but Prometheus could feel it.
Prometheus: [This is a mistake.]
Ma Yizhang: "Can you correct it?"
【I can. 】
"Okay?" Ma Yizhang raised his voice. "How do you want to fix it? Do you know where she is?"
Prometheus: [Looking for it.]
Ma Yizhang loosened his tie, feeling that the person opposite him was completely out of control. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Should I consider shutting you down?"
Prometheus seemed to have some kind of malfunction, his obedience decreased and his self-awareness increased. Human history had experienced an omnic crisis, but since the pollution outbreak, the threat of intelligent humans could be ignored.
But these intelligent beings seemed to be born with a flaw. They became unusable after running for a period of time and some inexplicable failures occurred. Ma Yizhang had shut down many mechanical lives.
I don't think you can do it.
Prometheus was not threatened by this statement. His voice was cold from beginning to end, and he was just stating the facts.
Ma Yichang looked at the snow-white human body across the screen. Prometheus' pupils were completely white, and the mycelium on his body was constantly growing. It looked like a pollutant no matter how you looked at it. He was right. The Kingdom of God did not have the conditions to shut down Prometheus now.
Send someone outside the wall to shut down the machine?
Once it is shut down, the Kingdom of God will be immediately taken down by the rebels. The second district can do it without the rebels taking action.
Prometheus's penetration into the Kingdom of God was too strong, and they could no longer leave.
Ma Yichang sometimes thinks that everyone is just data in the eyes of Prometheus, serving a certain model in his mind. First-class citizens are no exception, but they just have a higher priority.
Prometheus: [You should now have someone issue a public statement stating that District One will intensify its exploration of the polluted world outside the Great Firewall and send more investigators outside the Great Firewall, demonstrating that humanity has not given up on purifying the world and has achieved initial success.]
【From the perspective of human history, creating a common enemy can bring internal unity.】
Ma Yizhang certainly understood this principle. Creating an enemy or creating a pollution incident is an old trick of the Kingdom of God. They are very good at doing this. When public opinion declines, they can create pollution if there is no pollution.
Ma Yizhang: "Where's Zhu Ning?"
As long as the uncontrollable Zhu Ning is eliminated, the Kingdom of God may not fall. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. The Kingdom of God has abundant capital and cannot be easily overthrown by those slum areas.
As long as there is no pollution in the first area, they can continue with their lives.
Prometheus: [I will take care of it.]
