Having roughly grasped the rules of the inner city, Yin Zhu looked at the others with confidence, then suddenly stood up because she had just remembered a major life event.
How are we going to eat today?
This group of people are essentially unregistered residents in the inner city. Because the city was locked down after the outbreak of Cybervirus, they were able to stay there a little longer.
Accommodation can be found at the former site of Feiyu's house, but people need to eat.
The team consisted of six people, and none of them could eat it on the spot. At this moment, Yin Zhu regretted not having persuaded Solomon to join the team; his talent for accelerating plant growth would have been perfect for the logistics department.
Hirano San's talent can be simply summarized as mind reading, which is very effective on living people, but is countered by tin robots.
Jennifer's talents lean towards combat, making her a damage dealer.
As for Yin Zhu herself, she is considered an assistant. Whether her talent is useful or not can only be known through specific practice. If she successfully interprets the rules, it will take effect; if she fails to interpret the rules, it will be ineffective. Although this is the principle, it sounds like nonsense when said out loud.
Worms are hackers, used to defend against the attention of the gods; flying fish and cockroaches are like tour guides in the inner city.
No one can provide meals.
Hearing Yin Zhu's question, Hirano Shan glanced at Yin Zhu's stomach and then looked towards the door.
"Let me read the rules first."
This is Jennifer, who is still slowly reading the "Citizen's Code of Conduct for the Inner City of Venetian," with no time to think about food.
Finally, only the worm remained. Yin Zhu cast an expectant glance at him, but the hacker, who was completely absorbed in his portable computer, did not notice Yin Zhu's actions at all, and did not even react to Yin Zhu's previous words. His hands were flying across the keyboard, as if he was typing something very important.
Yin Zhu didn't receive a reply from the worm, but instead saw Flying Fish and the others return:
"Have you all rested well?"
"It's alright," Hirano San replied politely, without offering many perfunctory remarks this time.
Flying Fish nodded, then glanced down at his benevolent spirit officer, his expression unreadable: "One good news and one bad news, which do you want to hear first?"
"Bad news."
Yin Zhu immediately raised her hand to answer.
"Because the number of Cybervirus infected people is more than we expected, they have taken over most of the inner city. I originally planned to use my personal robot to get food, but now that area is a Cybervirus infected zone, it's not a good idea."
Flying Fish quickly explained everyone's situation and the environment of the inner city.
"Shall we go?"
Since the environment made it inconvenient to move around, Yin Zhu was starting to have second thoughts: What a joke, even if Yin Zhu wasn't a genius, she could tell that something was wrong with the current situation.
She had been ignoring a problem all along.
Since the instance is set in the time before the world is about to perish, how did the city of Vena fall?
Was he simply crushed to death by an unspeakable hand?
Of course not. So far, the endings of all the dungeons, except for [Grand Theft Auto], are unclear because the Chosen Ones rebelled, causing the Unspeakable One to die directly in the dungeon.
Perhaps the "Green House" instance doesn't count, since the instance doesn't explicitly state it, but Yin Zhu has already seen that future where the world is covered in green.
So what about the current Cyber Mythology instance?
The Cyber Disease, which is difficult for humans to solve, may be the unspeakable ending written for the unique star, a fate that is ultimately irresistible.
"You can't escape. The inner city is under lockdown now. If you want to escape with only your soul, you can try." Flying Fish made a hellish joke. "The guards' weapons might allow you to leave a lasting impression of the inner city in your final moments."
"...Never mind then."
Yin Zhu immediately abandoned that wrong plan. After all, if the lockdown of the inner city was a fixed part of the plot, then it would be easier to pass the level here than outside.
...
"All instances of the game have been locked down?"
An Zhi was a little surprised. According to the messages from his subordinates, regardless of the environment of each instance, there were warnings of the inner city being locked down.
“Yes, boss,” Green added, “but the timing is a bit different. For all the previous instances where children died, the city was quickly sealed off after the notification was issued that day. However, for the instances where children were saved by the Chosen One, there are still two days to prepare.”
"It seems that no matter what happens in the outer city, the situation in the inner city is the same." An Zhi said thoughtfully.
Buzzing—
Anzhi's communication software received a pop-up message, which was a meeting notification from the United Nations.
"You guys think about it first, I'm going to a meeting."
An Zhi stood up, straightened her clothes, and prepared to go to the small conference room next door. She would usually bring her secretary to participate in non-emergency meetings of the United Nations.
After An Zhi left the room, Zhang Baye stretched and yawned: "Yawn, I guess the UN was just talking about the cyber disease. Those Chosen Ones who didn't enter the inner city before the lockdown are probably in trouble..."
"There's no need to be so pessimistic, is there?" Han Jiuying cleared her throat. "Besides, apart from the two groups of countries, there are more or less Chosen Ones entering the inner city of other countries."
This reminded Di Jia, who quickly opened several live streams of the Chosen Ones who had entered the inner city on his tablet, his expression turning serious: "Do you remember where the next Chosen One appears after a Chosen One dies?"
"I remember it being a poor people's apartment building or a slum?"
Su Jinyun blurted it out.
After answering, she immediately realized the problem: "If the chosen one dies in the inner city, then the next chosen one of the country will appear directly outside, which is equivalent to being truly unable to enter or leave."
“It’s impossible to have absolutely no way in, otherwise this would be a dead end.” Li Yunxiang understood this as well, but he still held onto hope.
"Hehe, I just really like dead ends."
Combined with Green's somewhat gloomy appearance, her words somehow came across as villainous.
"It's a pity the live stream camera was following Yin Zhu the whole time, otherwise I would really like to know what happened to Mary's family." Han Jiuying was talking about Mary's family on the surface, but she was actually referring to the "normal ending".
The fact that no one left Yin Zhu's side does not mean that the other chosen ones will not choose to leave.
Several chosen ones from different countries chose to leave the city with their family, which even caused a quarrel. However, when they finally met the natives, they learned that they could only take two people with them at most.
Clearly, escaping from the city of Vena in this way was not the outcome that Unspeakable wanted.
If it weren't for the United Nations' strong pressure, the chosen ones in the instance would almost have turned into a fight among themselves in order to grab the spots for these two endings. The countries behind them also paid a reminder, thus avoiding a bloody infighting in full view of everyone.
So, what's the good news?
Yin Zhu rubbed her stomach, which wasn't hungry yet. When it comes to eating, you have to be prepared. It would be a real mess if you were starving and had nothing to eat.
