The Witch of the Cyberpunk Era Chapter 32

There were bursts of roars, like a hundred beasts roaring in the dark night.

The people of the Suzuki team completed the assembly and transfer within ten minutes, and countless motorcycles and three large shuttles flew away from the Suzuki Spring, left the Katagi area, and went straight to the No. 26 Highland.

In the Lijia hypermarket, Xu Yang originally rested, but he was awakened by the sound of a large number of teams moving. He turned to look and saw that the Suzuki team members who were moving things in the store had already retreated, and the place was empty.

He quickly ran outside to observe the situation, only to see the lights of a vehicle piercing the darkness, passing through the road, and whizzing away.

"They are going to Highland No. 26." Xu Yang saw where he was going, "We can't stop either."

"Going to find the 'shuttle machine' you mentioned?" Ye Ye was still afraid of returning to the darkness and nostalgic for the light of the hypermarket.

"Yes, Ye Zi, come with me, and let's go too. The sooner we go, the better. We can only feed the mice if we stay here." Xu Yang didn't want to delay for a moment. He immediately turned around and headed towards the Bronze Titan Company's quarry. .

A Rat Man emerged from the darkness, peeping at them, whispering and whispering at the same time.

Behind them, there are more of the same kind pouring out, the number seems to be endless, at least tens of thousands of rat people, densely packed, and it is impossible to see the edge at a glance.

Where did the Rat Man come from? Xu Yang couldn't help asking himself.

This is more than that.

Some say it is the product of the company's biochemical experiments, some say it is a strange life left over from the age of witches, some say it is a heterogeneous creature born from extraterrestrial meteorites, some say it is degenerated after human beings were driven into the ground, no one Know.

There are tens of billions of rats, and the rat people are much larger than them, and the number will be smaller.

Other humanoid creatures, such as various apes and orangutans, are currently only 300,000 in the world, and many people think that the number of rat people will not exceed this number.

But from what we have seen so far, this is far from the truth.

According to some surveying companies, the rat people can live near the underground city, relying on the huge amount of garbage left in the underground city and on the ground to survive.

Under the prediction of artificial intelligence, the imbalance between supply and demand will cause economic turmoil. In order to balance production and sales, a large amount of unconsumable food is directly discharged into the sewer, and it is likely to become the food of the rat people.

After all, when the Rat People first expanded on a large scale half a century ago, they had already shown enough intelligence to use or even replicate the hydroponic farms developed by humans, without humans knowing anything about it. , to establish a self-sufficient underground empire.

These thoughts lingered in Xu Yang's mind.

As they walked to the quarry, more and more rat people appeared on both sides, verifying these conjectures.

The forgotten intelligent race has returned.

They didn't attack, they just watched them walk silently in the dark, which felt even more eerie, as if they were filmed by thousands of cameras at the same time, the rat people stared at them like staring at the prey to be slaughtered.

Creepy.

"Why don't... let's go back." Kojima Ye couldn't help it. "Go back to the place with lights, go back to the robot shop, where there are automatic gun turrets and battery packs to protect our safety."

"How long will the rat infestation last?" Xu Yang didn't stop, "What if we are facing a long tug of war?"

"With the company's technology and firepower, the mice will die as often as they come." Kojima Yeba is very confident.

"Yes, the company is too strong, what about us?" Xu Yang sighed.

"The company is invincible," Cui Junyou added in a timely manner, "our little people are the reserves."

"..." Ye Ye was silent.

"Yeah," Xu Yang said with emotion, "For the company, the Rat Man is just a disease of scabies, and it doesn't affect their business empire under the sun at all. And the company also has no obligation to protect us, and now the Rat Man is killed. Those populations that are not covered by the company's plan, the company will only protect those who pay for their services. There is no doubt that the major companies will continue to thrive after this disaster, so what about us?"

"Just staying in one place will exhaust resources sooner or later." Niedlet reminded Ye Ye.

This guy can always look at facts objectively, Xu Yang feels good and can handle it.

"It's even more dangerous here." Ye Zi was annoyed, "Why don't you let me stay in the hypermarket and pick me up when you find the shuttle?"

"It's useful for you." Xu Yang smiled.

"Huh?" Ye Ye was puzzled.

"They haven't attacked for the time being." Lila used her magic power to gather intelligence around her. "They seem to be waiting for the arrival of the 'chief' and 'leader', and they are more excited than normal. If it wasn't for the lack of certain orders, they would have been waiting long ago. rushed over."

"We move fast, we're just ahead." Xu Yang pointed to the quarry in the dark.

After spending the longest 15 minutes in his life, Xu Yang and his party finally arrived at their destination.

After the original battle, everything was dead silent, there was no light, the floor was full of smoke and dust, bullet casings, dirt pits, metal remains and corpse fragments were intertwined, and it was difficult to distinguish carefully.

It seems that because of the burial of Farosa, the psychedelic aura of the inner room of the excavation site dissipated. The rat people didn't like this smell, so they didn't break in, but just spied on the periphery.

Xu Yang ran to find the shuttle, and Lila and Farosa stopped very close to the entrance.

The burial chamber where Farosa was buried was still hidden in the depths, with a faint flood of light, and Lila stared there. In the absence of light, she was able to slowly construct an internal model through the information she perceived.

Temperature, airflow, and visual imaging are all available resources.

"The people who hated me the most built that place together." Farosa folded her arms around her chest, "There are still my funeral objects in it, do you want to dig it out?"

"1,000 years ago, there were about 8 witches who were violently malicious for doing things that made other witches invincible, causing an unprecedented catastrophe." Lila recalled.

"Have only 8 of the 11 witches been remembered by people of this era? I really want to know how the three forgotten ones would feel if they lived to this day." Farosa half-smiled.

"In fact, only numbers have been handed down, without any detailed records."

"I guess that's why modern witches seem so vulnerable, because they don't know anything about the past."

"If you are one of them, your existence is a huge threat to us."

"As long as you don't provoke me, everything is easy to say." Farosa scorned, "I feel disgusted by a monster like you, your existence has insulted our entire ethnic group. If God could know you, God would have nothing to do with it. Destroy you blasphemous without hesitation."

"It's a pity that your 'god' has fallen in the attack of major companies." Lila took a calm attitude.

The gloomy smile on Farosa's face was even weirder. She shook her head and walked quickly towards Xu Yang.

Xu Yang found the black shuttle, opened the hatch and got in, then turned to greet the others to come up, Farosa was the first to get into the shuttle.

"Wow!" She excitedly said to Xu Yang, "We came here safely."

"Of course!" Xu Yang felt that Farosa was extraordinarily naive and cute at this moment.

"So many motorcycles left just now. Is there no one in the hot spring? It would be great if I could go back to the hot spring before and pay homage to the god. I miss the **** so much!" Farosa said.

Oh god... great god, I haven't tasted your fear for a long time. I wonder if you are as soft as before, with endless lamentation.

"Worshiping the gods can restore your strength." Xu Yang remembered, "If you have a chance, go and see, the people from the Suzuki group seem to have really left, so they shouldn't stop us from visiting that place, and they shouldn't send them. People stay, there are so many rat people, how can they stay."

"Yes, yes." Farosa nodded happily, "I can't wait to exert all my strength, then I can really do whatever I want."

"If you can recover your strength from visiting the shrine, it will be good for all of us, but you have to be careful, after all, there are rat people everywhere." Xu Yang reminded.

When he saw Lila coming up, he took her to the console, pulled out a data cable from the console, connected it to his wrist, hacked into the internal system, modified the background settings, and found the original Black Fire Innovation AI. to completely block its administrative privileges.

"Warning: Violent hacking has been detected." The shuttle's AI immediately broadcast, "Suggestion: The crew members immediately find the neuro-hacker and kill them. Warning, violent hacking has been detected..."

Xu Yang adjusted its volume to 0.

Lila sat on the operating console, and quickly connected to the control, working closely with Xu Yang to become the new controller of the shuttle. The original AI intelligence was permanently isolated and could no longer interfere with the behavior of the shuttle.

Under Lila's operation, the shuttle engine started, the airflow spurted, and it rose from the ground, ready to go.

It worked! Xu Yang was excited for a while.

This shuttle is not painted. It was originally used for the evacuation of the mercenaries who were innovated by the Black Fire. It is a powerful military technology product, with outstanding performance, speed, manipulation, and protection. .com~ It's big and bright inside. "Cui Junyou also came up and saw the automatic doctor that came with the shuttle, "Oh, this thing is also new, there is nothing wrong with it. "

"Yes, that's it." Xu Yang said pleasantly, "Use it to repair me."

The implants were brand new, the hacking function was fully enabled, and I was the real technical master at that time. Xu Yang was excited when he thought about it.

Due to the current large-scale rat infestation, there are loopholes that can be exploited everywhere in this chaotic dungeon, where the big companies are reluctant to set foot, and every block will become my private property, who else can hold me accountable Responsibility, bring up my hacking log? Besides, I still have hundreds of millions of dollars to spend! As long as you use this shuttle to escape from life, the future will be promising.

"You go first." Cui Junyou pushed Xu Yang into the automatic doctor and adjusted it on the control screen outside, "Well, I can use many of its functions, I will give you aseptic treatment first, and then cut your skull open. Change your processor to Fei Shen 4, plug in the No. 7 wire, and you will be invincible."

"Yeah." Xu Yang nodded, "It couldn't be better."

"There is a problem." Cui Junyou said quickly, "You will have to undergo anesthesia for a while, and then you will not be able to move."

"Then what happened?" Xu Yang didn't know what Cui Junyou meant for a while.

"You're not here, who's in charge?" Cui Junyou looked at the person in the shuttle, "You're the guy in our team who gave orders, right? Who will preside over the situation when you fall asleep? What if there is an emergency? "

Xu Yang looked around and saw that Ye Ye, Farosa, Lila, and Niedlet were still able to move.

The answer is obvious.

When I was sleeping, among these four people, there was only one person who had the ability to preside over the situation.
