Overturned Tower

Vol 2 Chapter 38: torrent of the times

Bird of Paradise's bug terminal is hidden in her short hair, on a bone near her ear.

That's a technique known as e-tattooing, a radically simplified version of a circuit board.

It can be permanently tattooed on the body, or it can be directly attached to the surface of the human body as a sticker.

The electronic tattoo used by Paradise Bird was made by herself with instruments. Its surface is as transparent as possible, attached to the bone, and can directly transmit sound waves to the auditory nerve through bone conduction.

It's like the knocking sound of human teeth is very small, but it can be heard clearly.

And using bone conduction to eavesdrop, even if the sound is very small, you can hear clearly...and at the same time, you can avoid being heard by outsiders.

Even though it is still moving forward with others, Paradise Bird is also distracted listening to the voice on the other side.

Her pupils contracted suddenly, and her momentary absence made her freeze in place for a moment.

The people next to her looked at her curiously, and Paradise Bird shook her head slightly, indicating that she was fine.

Just now, Tovatus' words were transmitted to the Bird of Paradise through the radio bug.

"...Blow up...a ​​building invested by the church?"

Those immature whispers that were as intoxicating as wine and full of bewitching power sounded like a devil at the moment.

The strong impact made her even a little unsteady just now.

-Do not make jokes.

Church-funded buildings?

Turn people against angels?

I'm afraid it will.

Because what are the buildings invested by the church?

orphanage. Enlightenment school. crematorium. digital library.

These are things that those companies are unwilling to open, and they have no technical content at all, let alone things that are not profitable.

Kindergartens are generally the industry of Thoth psychics, because they have many experiments that require the participation of young children who have not yet manifested spirituality;

Hospitals and pharmacies are monopolized by Ampoule Biomedical. Even if someone creates a new drug, it will often be patented or acquired by Ampoule Biomedical. Nursing homes are also controlled by them and used to sell diseases to the elderly. various drugs;

All convenience stores, department stores, and grocery stores that can buy daily necessities, as well as those taxi services driven by artificial intelligence, including those fully automatic factories that continue to produce in the downtown area... are all industries under the control of Sogo Corporation;

And hotels, restaurants and community properties are more or less controlled by Taoyuan Commercial Bank.

The same is true for other types of industries.

As long as it is profitable, as long as there is a technical threshold... Basically, it is controlled by the seven giants and their small companies.

Those industries that have no profit but must exist are taken over by the Cyber ​​Church.

This is a thankless industry.

- Hard work, tired heart, low upper limit, not understood.

Those who are willing to join are more or less the kind of people who have relatively low desire and hope to help others.

But they want to blow up these buildings?

Even if they act in the middle of the night, they will definitely accidentally injure innocent people.

Can the lives of orphans be guaranteed? What about the bodies stored in the crematorium?

What about those scholars and college students who study all night in the digital library? Will they get hurt?

What about the children who still need to learn to read and count in the future? Can they still keep up with the follow-up studies?

Without enough profit, the head office couldn't possibly help with the recovery - and as long as they keep blowing up these buildings, the speed of rebuilding can't keep up with the speed of destruction.

How many people's lives will be hit by this!

They will indeed anger the church... But this does not affect their first hatred to the lower city!

Originally, even if the lower city went to the upper city every day to rob, kidnap, and kill people, it was "a very small number of cases" after all.

Most people have no real sense at all, and they can't imagine that this kind of thing will happen to them one day.

After all, most people are actually "unprofitable".

But if these gangs really act according to Torvatus's words... the damage and impact will be completely different from before!

Since then, the lower city has never returned to the sun for a day—even if they can be protected by the company for a short period of time and will not be wiped out by the angels, they have also completely offended the Cyber ​​Church, which was originally neutral.

In the long run, they will be wiped out by the company and the church!

- Never promise!

Once you agree, it is equivalent to choosing destruction as the inevitable ending!

Paradise Bird felt unusually nervous, and couldn't help holding its breath.

She is extremely clear that... the torrent of the times has flowed.

The result of this meeting will directly determine the future of all people in the lower city of Sky Island from now on!

But to the despair of Paradise Bird, Tovatus' proposal was immediately recognized and approved by others.

"It's not bad. Weakness is a weapon... and it is true. Because we are fearless, churches and companies that have scruples should also be afraid of us."

It was a thick and dull voice, and Paradise Bird didn't know his name.

"Indeed, we have no choice... As I said before Hanging, I have been a mage for six years. Although I don't know how powerful an angel is, my strength is far less than one percent of my mentor. But Even such powerful mages were defeated by the angel legion. Like strangle, full-cooked, labyrinth, legal enemy... You all have less than four years. Although I don't know how long Mr. Barber has been a mage, but I think at least Not more than half a year."

Malt Wine's rational voice tended to agree after a moment of hesitation: "If the angels are allowed to wake up constantly, I don't know what will happen to those scum and bastards. But we must all die."

"Even if you count the two deserters and the discordants, there are only twenty-three of us."

Quanshu's shriveled and sharp voice came: "However, it is not only Happy Island that has a lower city. We are not the only ones who can give birth to angels... No matter what the other people of Sky Island choose, as long as we choose this way to avoid war, we must It's effective.

"Since Happy Island has shown a clear attitude of 'no angels are welcome', I think the church should give priority to attacking other empty islands."

"Are you going to abandon the mages of other sky islands?"

The roar of the strangling angry lion came: "Are you planning to betray your own identity?"

Although he was angry ~www.wuxiahere.com~, he was not speaking for the downtown area. It's for the "mage"—even the most reasonable strangulation doesn't care about the life and death of those who have no code at all!

This one sentence after another, listening to Paradise Bird's whole body is cold.

She realized something.

These mages didn't treat other residents of the lower city as human beings at all!

The enemy hasn't come yet, they are discussing how to sacrifice other uncoded people in exchange for peace...

They are burning the future and possibility of other residents to buy time for the "mage"!

...She originally thought that the so-called "gang" and "organization" were nothing more than a group of people gathering together to make a living.

small book booth

Although the positions are different, we are all family members, we are all of the same kind, and we are all uncoded people with the same situation.

But these days, the no-coders in downtown are nothing more than "scum" and "assholes" to them.

I'm afraid those uncoded people don't know...they claim to be free, but they are just clowns, playthings and props in the eyes of gang leaders. It's no different from the salary slaves in the upper city... No, those salary slaves may be valued more. After all, their lives are protected.

And she risked her life just to save such a group of "mages" and the soil that hatched "mages"?

Or, are you saving those uncoded people who have long been determined to be given up?

so ridiculous...

But at this moment.

Paradise Bird suddenly heard the voice of the barber:

"—the most choices? It's ridiculous... We don't have a choice at all."

She seemed to see a ray of light in the abyss. Click to download the APP of this site, massive novels, free to read!
