Chapter 269 Major Developments
Hearing Jiang Baimian's emotion, Bai Chen, who was driving, replied thoughtfully:
"What happened when Zhang Jiu saw the dragon?
"That 'High Mindless One' may have a certain connection with the 'Mirage Dragon Sect'?"
"Yes." Jiang Baimian nodded lightly and said, "I can now preliminarily determine that the illusion created by the 'higher mindless person' is based on his own cognition, insight and experience, and has nothing to do with our memories and emotions. At most, he will constantly make some adjustments according to the reaction of the target, for example, you are watching a ghost movie, so with trembling performance, the illusion created by the 'High Unintentional' for you may develop in this direction."
Speaking of this, she looked back at Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao, and joked:
"Otherwise, what those people of the 'Mountain Fox' bandit group saw in the illusion world would not be aberrant monsters, extremely hungry beasts, and common 'heartless people', but we should be full of aggressive tendencies.
"Well, I can't rule out the possibility that they lie about this matter, but I don't think they need it: everyone is barely a grasshopper on a rope now, and if the 'higher mindless person' is not dealt with as soon as possible, everyone may die, unless, unless they have been controlled and start working for the tiger."
When Shang Jianyao heard this, he shook his head:
"He didn't lie."
"Aren't you useless?" Jiang Baimian asked amusedly.
Why are you so sure.
Shang Jianyao replied truthfully:
"Although he killed, robbed, raped and deserved to be hanged, he was a polite person."
At this moment of "......", Long Yuehong didn't know which direction to start with.
Isn't that guy polite trained by you? Jiang Baimian was about to laugh and scold when something suddenly buzzed and vibrated in his pocket.
She immediately took out a palm-sized electronic device.
On the front of it is a black LCD display with a picture of two robots leaning together.
This is a mobile phone.
In Tarnan, because the "Mechanical Paradise" rack has a base station and established related departments, it can directly use this communication tool.
Of course, the four mobile phones distributed by Gnawa to the "Old Tune Team" are all models produced by "Mechanical Paradise" and are not repaired relics from the old world.
——The mayor of Tarnan and the captain of the Robot Guard probably also knew that the "High Mindless" could interfere with electromagnetic signals to create an illusion that could affect the robot, but he felt that he could not completely give up the contact between the teams responsible for each defense area because he choked.
You can't communicate basically by roaring, right?
The voice will also be distorted and tampered with!
When the task is completed, participants can choose to return their phones or leave them as part of their remuneration.
The only problem is that once you leave Tarnan, the main functions of the phone are basically scrapped, and you can only use it as a small computer, read novels, and play mini-games.
——Even if you go to a place like Wild Grass City that also has a base station, you must first register with the competent authorities and obtain permission before you can make another call.
Although Jiang Baimian has never used a mobile phone, he has a good brain and accumulated experience in other electronic products.
At this time, she slipped her thumb and brought the phone to her ear:
"Hey."
"I'm Gnava." A mellow baritone voice with a slight synthetic feel came from the other end of the phone.
Jiang Baimian asked with a smile:
"Is there any good news?"
"Yes." Gnava replied in the affirmative.
Correct...... Jiang Baimian's other hand instantly clenched into a fist and swayed gently.
Noticing her reaction, Shang Jianyao turned his body sideways and stretched out his right hand to Long Yuehong.
Long Yuehong was stunned for a moment, not wanting to show that she understood this mental illness very well.
However, under Shang Jianyao's persistent gaze, he still stretched out his right hand and slapped the other party.
At this time, Gnawa's follow-up words also reached Jiang Baimian's ears:
"Just now, 'Source Brain' gave a reply:
"When this matter is resolved and you have made corresponding contributions, you can ask him the questions you want to ask by phone, and the time limit is five minutes."
Shang Jianyao, who was leaning next to Jiang Baimian's head and eavesdropping on the phone, took a breath:
"It's so difficult, how can we come up with a problem for five minutes?"
"......" Gnava on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, "This includes answering."
"That's too short." Shang Jianyao did not mean to be ashamed of his mistake at all.
Jiang Baimian even had a feeling that Gnava was surrounded by Shang Jianyao's "words".
"......" Gnava was silent again, and then said, "This is decided by the 'source brain', I can't give in."
"No matter what, thank you!" Jiang Baimian saw that the main task had made significant progress and became quite good.
"Thank you." Shang Jianyao followed.
Jiang Baimian immediately hung up the phone, put away his phone, and said with a smile:
"That's strange.
"Why didn't 'Source Brain' agree to the request to meet, and his attitude was extremely tough, but he didn't refuse to talk on the phone?"
This is her usual heuristic question.
"Because what's special about 'Source Brain', meeting will lead to the leakage of secrets?" Long Yuehong is now an experienced and knowledgeable relic hunter.
"What's so special about an intelligent supercomputing machine? At least it's hard to see from the outside, right?" Jiang Baimian asked rhetorically.
Long Yuehong was suddenly a little speechless, and Shang Jianyao said with a smile:
"Maybe it's not a supercomputer, it's a person."
"Then he can talk to us in the form of a supercomputer, I hide far away, and I am not afraid of being sensed." Jiang Baimian retorted along Shang Jianyao's ideas.
Long Yuehong was confused for a while:
"So what's the difference between this and communicating over the phone?"
"No." Jiang Baimian laughed, "So it's strange."
At this time, Bai Chen considered and said:
"If 'Source Brain' agrees to meet, where will we meet?"
Jiang Baimian nodded slightly:
"The 'Source Brain' should not be able to move, at least not easily.
"So, the meeting must be the city where we go to the headquarters of 'Mechanical Heaven'."
Hearing this, Long Yuehong suddenly realized:
"Team leader, what do you mean, the secret is the headquarters of that city, the 'Mechanical Paradise'?"
"Almost." Jiang Baimian smiled and said, "I'm curious, in such a city that mainly produces various robots, what secrets do you need to hide......"
While they were discussing, the jeep drove outside the Hunter Guild.
——The arrangement of the defense area is in charge of Gu Bo, the president of the local guild.
Compared with Gnava, who had not been assigned to Tarnan for many years, Gu Bo, who had lived and fought here for more than 40 years, was obviously more familiar with the surrounding environment, so Gnava, who had collected a belly of data and felt that he had no problem in this regard, finally did not take it too seriously and fully believed in these "professionals".
The second floor of the Hunter Guild, outside Room 1.
Jiang Baimian looked at the two mirrors, one high and one low, hanging on the brownish-red wooden door, and said with a slight movement of the corners of his mouth:
"I feel that the folklore of Tarnan has changed overnight......"
Everyone has a mirror, and every household has a mirror.
Boom, boom, boom.
Shang Jianyao knocked on the door politely.
Gu Bo's voice immediately came out:
"Please come in."
He was still wearing the black tweed clothes, holding a silver thermos cup, and his thin and small body shrank on the back chair.
Seeing Jiang Baimian and the others come in, sitting down separately, Gu Bo straightened his gray and sparse hair, and said with a smile:
"Fortunately, I didn't offend you before, otherwise I would really be beaten."
Jiang Baimian had never personally experienced the conversation between Long Yuehong, Bai Chen and Gu Bo, and only listened to the key points afterwards.
"What do you say?"
Gu Bo took a breath of the water in the thermos cup and replied with a smile:
"You guys didn't expect me last night's performance.
"Being in the area where hallucinations are most severely affected, not only is there nothing wrong with you, but you have also allowed so many people to survive.
Previously, at Tarnan General Hospital, Jiang Baimian and the others learned about the specific casualties.
It is said that except for the members of the "Mountain Fox" bandits, only two townspeople who were shot died of excessive blood loss, and nothing else was a big deal.
Compared to the tragic situation in which Zhang Jiu's ruin hunter team was the only one left to survive, this was really too good to be true.
"What does this have to do with whether we beat you or not?" Shang Jianyao's mind was not on Gu Bo's hidden praise at all, he just wanted to figure out this issue.
In Long Yuehong's cough, Gu Bo was speechless for a while.
After a few seconds, he forced a smile and said:
"Just say a witty thing, young man, don't be so serious."
"That's right......" Shang Jianyao was obviously a little disappointed.
Jiang Baimian followed this topic and smiled casually:
"President Gu, you are such a powerful person, are you still afraid of us beating you?"
"No, no, no." Gu Bo shook his head, "I'm just an ordinary person, and I didn't even realize that I was hallucinating last night."
Speaking of this, he looked around and said with a smile:
"In this gray land, there are many powerful people, but they are also limited, and they are not so easy to encounter.
"When Musa and I were young, we would be considered the top among ordinary people, and we were all okay in terms of experience, knowledge, marksmanship, physical fitness, and fighting ability, so that we could live until now and be a hunter.
"Actually, if we go somewhere else, we might die silently, but fortunately, Tarnan is safer, and the surrounding ruins are not so dangerous, there is really a serious problem, and there are robot guards standing up."
Saying that, Gu Bo picked up the thermos cup again and took a sip:
"We didn't catch up with the good times at that time, and it was not so easy to eat enough, but like now, maybe one day smuggled genetic improvement fluid will come over, and there will be opportunities to modify robotic arms.
"It's incomparable to you, it's incomparable."
His last half sentence was said by the four members of the "Old Tune Group", with an untimely expression.
Jiang Baimian didn't answer this question, but asked instead:
"President Gu, how long have you been a relic hunter?"
"At the beginning, there was no hunter guild yet." Gu Bo replied with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Jianyao jumped before Jiang Baimian and asked:
"Then do you know a hunter named Du Heng?"
PS: Ask for a monthly pass at the beginning of the month~
