Chapter 63 NO.003f: Scavenging and Lack of Money

"That is to say, you fell to the lower level together with that monster."

"Um."

"Then, you found a way to get rid of that monster?"

"To be precise, it was the other party who chased me around."

"There's not much difference... Then you met an existence that gave people the impression of a 'black dog', and it instantly dismantled the monster into parts? Do you feel that the existence has been following you since then?"

"Is such that."

"Are you still there now?"

"After it destroys all the monsters chasing you, it will be gone."

"Okay... so you picked up the floating frisbee that exploded from the opponent and flew up like that?"

"That's roughly the situation."

Jiang Zhou nodded seriously and answered.

After returning to depth 2 and rescuing Qianxia Ying at the critical moment, Jiang Zhou selectively described what happened in the deeper abyss.

Of course, he omitted the details about Hecate. He only said that there was some existence passing by and killed the liquid metal humanoid monster in a snap. And he just happened to miss it and was lucky enough to get it.

Return here.

After all, the being named Hecate claims to be the next oldest, and God knows what will be involved. In any case, it will be safer if fewer people know about her - both for herself and others.

"You kid...you are so lucky."

After listening to Jiang Zhou's description and making a staged summary, Qianxia Ying was stunned for a long time, and finally had to sigh.

He fell into the abyss of the rift but did not go crazy. He happened to meet an existence that did not have much malice toward humans, but would strike hard at other intruding AIs. Although this does not mean that there is no such AI, the probability of encountering it is about the same.

Winning the lottery makes no difference.

And these things happened together, which can no longer be described as luck.

To say it is a miracle is an understatement.

Qianxia Ying sighed, and then looked at Jiang Zhou very warily:

"Wait a minute, do you remember how deep you fell?"

In response, Jiang Zhou shrugged and replied:

"I'm not sure. Maybe it's because the laws of physics have just begun to appear abnormal?"

Jiang Zhou knew that his mental index was very abnormal. In order to expose his specialness as little as possible, he chose to describe the matter in a less outrageous direction.

But even so...

"If you put it that way, you probably fell to depth 4, and depth 5 is not impossible... But if you fell like that without any protection measures, how could you not be crazy?"

Chinatsu Sakura looked in disbelief.

"That disappoints you."

Jiang Zhou looked helpless.

The other party punched Jiang Zhou on the shoulder.

"What nonsense are you talking about...I'm so fucking surprised!"

Qianxia Sakura couldn't help laughing.

Without corresponding adaptive training or using stabilizing drugs, I was directly exposed to the depth of the weak light zone. And after climbing up, it was as if nothing had happened, even a little manic, irritable and depressed.

There is no performance at all... This talent of mental toughness can only be described as terrifying.

Given time, after his adjustment and transformation reaches a certain level, he may not be able to dive to depth 6, but he will be able to reach depth 7 without any problem... maybe he really has the potential to break through to depth 7.

If they weren't currently imprisoned in Tartarus, Chinatsu Sakura would probably keep saying things like "I'm rich, I've found a treasure", which could easily be mistaken for a human trafficker.

And thinking of this, she immediately became serious again:

"One thing must be said. If we can safely return to the basic reality, you should not say even a word to those corporate dogs about what happened before.

"Otherwise my life is at risk."

In fact, half of what Chinatsu Sakura said was a lie.

If Theseus really told the company about his experience, there is a high probability that he would rise to great heights directly - from a consumable who was forced to mine the abyss of the dark web, to a senior field employee of the company, and live a real life.

People lead lives.

A native person with the potential to touch the limits of his mind cannot be overemphasized by the company's careful cultivation.

Of course, it is true to say that such people often rarely die well.

After hearing this, Jiang Zhou naturally understood what the other party was worried about.

However, the other party's concerns are completely unnecessary - he hopes more than anyone else that he will not be noticed by the company; and he has more reasons than anyone else to completely destroy the old employer that once took away everything from him.

fall.

In a sense, all people or organizations in this era who are dissatisfied with the "Order of Olympus" are his natural allies.

However, he couldn't say this directly to Qianxia Ying.

"Don't worry."

In the end, Jiang Zhou could only comfort him like this:

"I still understand the principle that ordinary people are not guilty but those who possess a treasure are guilty. And after all, I am also a member of the Icarus Liberation Front, right?"

At this time, he can only play the emotional card.

At this point, seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Jiang Zhou quickly changed the topic without giving the other party a chance to think too much:

"this thing……"

He said, pointing to the Frisbee floating beside him.

"This thing can take all of us to the other side of the rift. Let's hurry back to the assembly point now."

…………

The two people crowded on the flying disc and quickly moved away from the place, leaving only the remains of the monster that had been torn to pieces by the unknown "black dog"... and several data balls floating on it.

Since they are determined to get to the bottom of things, there is no need for them to take these things with them and go back to pay tribute to the company.

However, shortly after the two left, Liao Qi, who had been hiding next to him, walked out of the shadows and picked up the data balls one by one.

"There's no need to waste good things here."

He said so.

…………

Booker came back from the high-level meeting of the organization and felt that he was the leader of two people.

There are so many things that need to be done...

Repair the printed blueprint of the geothermal power station on the seventh floor of the Nord resettlement area, evacuate the settled residents at the power station site and find new homes for them, prepare the massive materials and energy needed to build the power station, and provide information during the construction period.

Security work at power stations...

They only had two months to complete so many things.

Even based on the most optimistic calculations, even based on the organization's heyday before the attack, this is a major project that will take at least half a year.

In just two months, in his opinion, it would be extremely difficult to even restore the Icarus Liberation Front to the level before the attack.

Although according to Purse Fanny, she will send a working group down to assist them in completing this project. But this means that the Pluto Deep Submersible Company; no matter what faction it is; and the Icarus Liberation Front

During this time, a deeply binding relationship was created.

To say that deep binding overestimates the organization is to put it another way - it has completely become a puppet on strings.

Therefore, cooperation also has a bottom line.

Even if the Pluto Submersible Company did not move in, restarting the geothermal power station and breaking the Fusion Bureau's energy monopoly would be a great achievement for the bottom layer of the Nord Resettlement Area.

This was also the key to Booker finally convincing the organization to pass this resolution.

In other words, control of the geothermal power station must be firmly in the hands of Icarus.

Therefore, the organization not only cannot accept the project of restarting the power station and let Fanny Studio take over it, but it cannot even rely too much on them to provide materials and energy.

The meaning of non-reliance, or the most direct meaning is - you have to pay for the rest of the money yourself.

So, after going around and around, everything finally came back to money.

To rebuild a geothermal power plant, even with a multi-purpose printer, you only have to pay for the theoretically required materials and energy, which compresses the cost to the extreme. The funds required are not something that the current organization can afford.
