Chapter 16 The Dragon of the Bathhouse
After work, Heshia changed into the ordinary student uniform she wore when she came here, untied the braid that Belfinger had braided for her, put on her glasses again, and walked into the vertical elevator going down.
Looking at the face reflected in the glass, a familiar feeling finally returned to her body.
She looked up at the top of the elevator, trying to use her eyes to see through the walls and barriers, and see the luxurious and heavenly "Glass Dream". Everything that happened today felt trance and unreal.
"It's just like a dream." Heshia murmured to herself, thankful for what happened today, but also felt that it was too good, and if she didn't work hard, she might lose this happiness.
Come on, Heshia, she silently cheered herself up.
With all kinds of emotions, the gray-haired girl returned home.
...
However, just when many people in Arpeggio City were getting off work, some other places had just started business.
Arpeggio City's 44th floor singing and dancing area, Shenghai Voice Bathhouse.
The spacious square in front of the bathhouse store was full of cars. Many people who had worked hard all day got out of their cars and walked into the bustling large bathhouse in twos and threes.
After accumulating fatigue and sweat all day, a comfortable hot bath is definitely a rare enjoyment. Moreover, Arpeggio City is a prominent industrial city. Many companies have to wear thick protective clothing in their working environment. After a day of stuffiness, they want to relax.
This bathhouse is the largest bathhouse in the entire urban area. The interior is divided into several sections and floors according to the consumption of the guests. As long as you pay a certain fee and apply for an annual card, you can come here to enjoy it every day. Many people will even continue to talk about unfinished business during the day while bathing in the bathhouse. With the hot water brushing over the body, iced drinks, and delicious snacks and food, everything becomes wonderful.
Although the average consumption level of this large bathhouse is far less than that of the "Lime Dream" on the Dingxing Tower, it is more in line with the habits of the general public. It also has a traffic volume far exceeding that of various stores, and can bring in a large amount of money every day.
Where there is profit, naturally there will be people who are jealous. Besides, this is not an industry with technical barriers or unique operating methods.
"Brother Long, we are here."
A hover car stopped in the square in front of the bathing beach, and then three people opened the car door and got out.
Qiao Long was wearing a carbon-colored short-sleeved shirt today. The high-toughness and comfortable fabric outlined his muscle contours, giving people a sense of abundant power.
"What did they say." He looked at the wide-open storefront through his sunglasses. The lenses of the sunglasses kept passing data, capturing the faces of pedestrians, and then listing their identity data and income.
"These people are really rich."
"The boss of Shenghai Voice does not want to surrender. They not only recruited a large number of security personnel, but also purchased a lot of equipment."
"Is he planning to resist? Ha."
"It seems so. He doesn't want to give up such a large amount of profit."
"So, eating alone will not end well, especially in Arpeggio City." Qiao Long took off his sunglasses and handed them to the thin younger brother beside him.
"Let's get to work."
"Yes, Brother Long." The younger brother bowed his head and stood at attention, then turned his head and gestured to the back.
The trunk of a car not far from the three people was opened, revealing a strange-shaped creation. Its shell resembled an engine, with a rotating circular outline, but upon closer inspection, it was not an engine.
After the rear door of the car was opened, a younger brother wearing black sunglasses inserted the verification card into the creation to activate it, then turned on the insurance and pulled down the handle.
Then a roar like a whistle came from the strange creation, and light blue particles gradually emerged in the surrounding void and were constantly absorbed into the interior of the device. This continued until a few seconds later, as if it was compressed to the extreme and then exploded.
A light blue ripple visible to the naked eye spread from the inside of the device and vibrated outward. Wherever it went, countless light tubes exploded, the hovercraft turned off, and the monitoring facilities failed. The surrounding area suddenly fell into darkness, and screams and cries rang out inside and outside the streets and bathhouses.
"Go!"
"Only 20 minutes, hurry up!"
"Hah!"
A group of people who had been prepared opened the car door and rushed to the chaotic bathhouse gate with various tools in their hands. Although the light was dim at the moment, they all wore glasses with night vision effects and there was no hindrance at all.
Seeing a group of his men rushing in, Qiao Long walked slowly towards the chaotic gate.
"When will the police come?" He asked the fat man beside him.
"When I got off the car just now, I confirmed that they said that there would be 4 riot control self-discipline units nearby in the early stage. They can't stop this and let us solve it ourselves."
"After that, they will receive the alarm and send the car. They will delay for ten minutes on the pretext of line and monitoring failure. Then add the travel time, and there will only be 20 minutes left for us."
"That means we have to catch the boss of Shenghai Voice within 20 minutes, and destroy or take away the main control T3 AI of their bathhouse, right?"
"That's right, Brother Long."
"You really think highly of me, haha." Qiao Long stretched out his hand and moved his fingers, and at this time there was a rapid sound of propellers turning in the sky.
Four large rotorcraft carrying armed riot control self-discipline units arrived.
[Analyzing the situation on the scene...]
[The malicious high-energy electronic pulse created by humans has damaged the area around No. 38 Xuanjing Street]
[The danger level has been raised to level 2, and the use of the shooting module is authorized, and it is fired at 60% power]
[Searching for suspects...]
In the nearly dark and chaotic environment, four red warning lights lit up, began to rotate continuously, and issued a warning notification sound.
[Please all federal residents on the scene stop moving, stand by in place, and keep quiet! ]
[This is the riot control self-discipline unit of the 44-H29 district of Arpeggio City. The weapon module has been activated. If you don’t want to be accidentally injured, please try your best to restrain yourself and don’t make any actions that are considered dangerous]
[The electronic pulse launcher has been searched, and the scene is being analyzed...]
The scanning camera on the gyroplane spun, focusing on the strange creation on the vehicle that had previously fired the shockwave.
[The source of the destruction is found, there are no people around, or they have left]
[Fixed spider web control is launched, and the search for the target continues...]
One of the four rotorcraft flew towards the paralyzed hovercraft parked on the ground, and then a robot about 2 meters high was dropped.
Its feet landed on the ground, slightly bent on the ground to release power, causing the ground to tremble slightly, bringing up a cloud of dust, and then it approached the electronic pulse transmitter that had been shut down, and the rectangular head began to scan it in detail.
[Fingerprint recording, began to collect residual breath, connected to the star field network for comparison...]
[Identity confirmed, began to investigate]
"Oh no, Brother Long, the riot control self-discipline unit seems to have discovered something."
"Where are the guys who started it? Didn't they ask them to tow the machine away directly after they were done?"
"That's the plan, but those guys seem to have forgotten about it."
"Tsk!"
The riot control self-discipline robot in the distance suddenly raised its head, and the indicator light on its head suddenly turned red from the original yellow flashing, causing a lot of people in the square to scream.
"Red! It's turned red, the riot control unit has been activated!" A man in a suit leaned against the car and shouted in panic.
"Don't, don't do that. Who knows if you'll accidentally hurt me if you start fighting?"
[The target has been found, two are inside the building, and one is running away]
[The pursuit begins]
One of the three gyroplanes hovering in the sky flew towards the street corner, and the other two landed on the ground, unloaded the riot control unit, and then rushed into the bathhouse.
On one side of the street corner, the rapidly rotating propeller drove the riot control unit to keep approaching the fleeing man and issued a sharp warning.
[Stop, stop, please stop immediately! ]
[You have been listed as an important suspect. If you continue to run away, you will be arrested by force, which means you are in danger of death! ]
"No, I don't believe it. I just pulled the handle. It won't lead to the death penalty. Don't scare me, you stupid robot." The man ran into the narrow streets and alleys.
[The target resists the search and flees to the complex area. The danger level increases by 3 levels and weapons can be used.]
Whoosh—
a dull and shrieking sound cuts through the darkness. A bright green light briefly illuminates the alley entrance and then goes out.
The large trash can originally placed in the alley was burned to form a hole half the size of a person. Dark red metal slowly flows down the edge, and the ground is burned to form long gullies.
"No, no." The man seemed to be panicking, running on the ground with his hands and feet, and the sound of the rotorcraft turning above his head is getting closer and closer.
Whoosh—
another shrieking sound cuts through the night.
"Ah—" A scream of extreme fear sounded in the alley, and it slowly died down after a while.
"I, am I not dead?" The man reluctantly opened his eyes and saw a strong and tall figure blocking him. The smell of burning still lingered in the air.
"Brother Long..." He recognized the boss.
"Stupid, I told you not to run around. As long as you don't run, this riot control unit won't kill you. At most, it will send you to the police station."
Qiao Long didn't look back. While scolding his younger brother, he stared at the riot control unit in front of him .
"I'll deal with it now. You hurry up and don't hold me back."
"Yes, I'll go." Finally, the man regained some sanity and ran away with a lame leg.
[Assisting the pursued person to escape, regarded as his accomplice, weapon attack authorization passed]
, another laser beam was activated.
After briefly illuminating the alley, the light dimmed, and Qiao Long's chest had a dark red burnt part.
It's hard to imagine that the high-energy shooting that can penetrate the 20mm steel structure didn't penetrate this man's body, or that the thin carbon-colored T-shirt has a strong protective effect? .
"Wow, is that it? It seems that the Federation's riot control robot is not very good. I was so careful before." He shook his hand, and faint dragon scales appeared on his body.
Most of the extraordinary classes of the Dragon Sequence have a strong style. After entering the high level, they can even transform into a giant dragon. There are few rivals in the same level battle, and there are very few shortcomings. However, due to the difficulty of practicing, not many people choose this sequence.
Although Qiao Long's head and body were full of burn marks, he was not seriously injured, and this minor injury was not a big problem for the strong Dragon Sequence.
"I don't have time to waste on this." After saying that, he kicked the ground with one foot, leaped up like an arrow, and kicked the rotorcraft in mid-air directly to pieces.
The rotorcraft was suddenly hit hard, the propeller was bent and damaged, and various parts collapsed, and the autonomous unit it carried was detached in advance and rushed towards Qiao Long.
The green laser light flickered from time to time, but most of them were avoided by the strong black-haired young man. Then he approached the riot control autonomous unit and directly punched its core armor to pieces, flashing a lot of electric sparks.
Tearing open the creaking chest armor, Qiao Long tore out the AI chip in the riot control self-discipline unit, then kicked away the remaining mechanical limbs and rushed to the bathhouse in the distance.
'There are only 12 minutes left now.' He calculated silently in his mind.
Soon after, more explosions and shootings rang out in the bathhouse, and the glass on the floors shattered, and various cries and screams were heard from time to time.
Time passed slowly, until ten minutes later, a police car equipped with sturdy armor and vehicle-mounted weapons drove into the square, and guards in white exoskeleton armor jumped out of the car one by one. Only then did the scene finally settle down.
But unfortunately, the people who caused the panic before had disappeared.
