indescribable cyberpunk.

Chapter 496
It was still the gambling table in the darkness.

This time, no chips appeared on the table, only a few golden wine cups filled with scarlet wine starting from the base, revealed in the patchwork of light blue data streams.

The lights on the southeast side suddenly came on.

Gwen, wearing a crown on his head, flashed in place, picked up the wine glass in front of him and took a sip, as if thinking of something, he stretched out his right hand and snapped his fingers.

A golden spoon appeared in his hand, and he tapped the rim of the wine glass twice.

Just a few seconds later, people appeared in several other places one after another.

"What's going on, it's not party time Gwen?"

Lilith, who was still in a coquettish attire, stood by the table, her face seemed to have some lingering reddish aftertaste, and her tone was not very friendly.

"I'm sorry to disturb your good business, but I do have some unexpected situations to tell you."

Realizing that she might disturb the other party's good business, Gwen said sorry, but her eyes swept back and forth on Lilith, paused, and then turned to the main seat,
"Where's Connor, isn't he with you?"

"I'm waiting for your report on the accident you just described."

The stern-faced young man crossed his hands and stood behind the chair where Gwen was sitting, walking towards his seat while talking.

His face looked the same as it did five years ago, save for the disappearing blue rings around his temples.

Following Conrad's seat, someone appeared from the opposite side of the darkness, pulled away the chair, and sat silently. Bonaparte, who was in the southwest position, had already drank the wine in his glass at this time, playing with the butterfly knife in his hand without changing his expression. Sen Leng's sharp blade was spinning around his fingertips.

"Ouroboros asked us to cooperate with the plan, and you agreed, so I have been making preparations for this. Through several cameras in the community, I found some interesting things that I can't explain. You can see for yourself. What Ouroboros is going to do this time is not easy!"

He snapped his fingers again, and a screen flashed above the gaming table. It was not a single screen, but a screen made up of dozens or even hundreds of different screens. Each screen was only the size of a cigarette box.

Screens that are difficult for ordinary people to see clearly are no problem for them.

Mutated monsters, piercing gunshots and screams of panic everywhere.
"From the 35th community to the 40th community, there are about 136 similar pictures collected so far. These are the pictures in the surveillance camera. The number of pictures outside the camera will probably be doubled. Among them, there are only 53 battle scenes. , most of them are concentrated in No. 37 and No. 39 communities."

Following Gwen's words, the pictures on the screen were split and reorganized for secondary classification.

"Haha~ Those infected people actually have this kind of use. I knew that the people in the Ouroboros organization were lunatics, and they actually used this method to fight against the Qiansail City government."

Bonaparte leaned against the bench, with his right hand resting on his cheek, and casually glanced twice. In his opinion, the combat power of the infected people in the picture would not last long at all.

"It's just that as far as I know, the security department of Qiansail City has noticed something strange in the community at the bottom. Since this morning, nearly 50 Raider III airships have entered our site one after another. This number is still increasing so far. , just such a small number of infected people, I am afraid that they will be cleaned up by the Qianfan City government within two or three days, and there will be no trouble!"

In order to fight against more and more mental pollution source monsters in the surrounding dangerous areas and maintain its own political power, Qianfan City has spared no effort in establishing its own armed forces in recent years. In addition, the Qianfan City government itself is a government jointly established by capital oligarchs. It's ugly, everything is lacking, but there is no shortage of money!
And the huge investment of resources is always rewarding.

Although most of these troops are permanently stationed in several subsidiary industrial cities outside Qianfan City to fight against the monsters that constantly invade the border, the armed forces left to maintain the safety of Qianfan City still remain at around 5 people.

At first glance, this figure inevitably makes people feel shabby. After all, Qianfan City has a population of nearly 2000 million, and a permanent army of [-] is nothing compared to it.

This is not the case.

Strictly speaking, these 5 people actually refer to the "public" armed forces of Qianfan City, excluding the community patrols that tend to be regional police and the private troops of major consortiums, but the elite troops dedicated to special operations, the security department is part of its function.

These people usually only stay in the base for training, relying on the three mechanical groups of Yuanfan, Crown, and Blue Wing. There is no doubt about the strength of the intelligence network.

To a certain extent, it is even higher than the troops stationed outside. After all, the area they guard also needs to add a "city in the sky".

It is impossible for tens of thousands of terrorists or hundreds of protozoan monsters, the source of spiritual pollution, to suddenly appear in Qianfan City. The supervision of the whole city by Tiantang Brain is enough for the Qianfan City government to detect the turmoil in any area in the shortest possible time. Signs and give a blow.

Small-scale turmoil can be handled quite safely with only a few small teams. Therefore, [-] elite soldiers are enough to deal with any situation no matter how you look at it.

"You mean the Ouroboros organization will fail?"

Lilith also returned to normal at this time. Well, it's just that the flush on her face has faded.

"If the current trend continues, the word 'failure' is not very accurate, and it may be better to describe it with 'fiasco'."

Putting away the butterfly knife nonchalantly, and raising his hand to stroke his dreadlocks, Bonaparte obviously didn't care much about the success of Ouroboros' plan.

"It's too early to discuss the success or failure of the Ouroboros organization. Obviously, the Ouroboros plan is just at the beginning, and their arrangement in the bottom community has not yet been fully revealed. I don't think they will be stupid enough to use a sure-to-fail action." To expose the secrets that have been hidden for many years."

The woman sitting across from Connor finally spoke.

While she was speaking, Gwen and Bonaparte, who were just about to open their mouths, chose to close their mouths at the same time. Lilith half-closed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled down slightly, but she didn't mean to interrupt her.

"I agree with this statement. The Ouroboros organization has planned for a long time, and it is impossible to bring themselves a worthless fiasco."

Before the other three could speak, Connor responded first,
"If the Ouroboros organization can fight against the Thousand Sails City government on its own, they don't need to seek cooperation with us. Besides, we have never been allies with the Ouroboros organization, and it is just a cooperative relationship of interests right now, Gwen, Don't worry too much, as long as our plan is implemented smoothly, the results of the Ouroboros organization will not affect anything."

"Understood, since this is the case, I will inform you that Heaven is not easy to deal with when the right time is right. We must cut in at the most suitable time to find a way to get what we want."

With Connor's assurance, Gwen's expression was obviously much more relaxed, she drank the drink in the glass in one gulp, and disappeared directly on the seat.

"I will continue to monitor the movements of the security department, and wait for them to send the weapons we want. Speaking of which, I haven't seen the weapons of the cops. The things made by the crown may be more powerful than ours. , It's a pity, they are all a group of brainless guys. Hey, I seem to have no brains, this is really a joke like shit."

Flicking his dreadlocks, Bonaparte also disappeared by the table.

"I'll go first, you guys talk."

Another got up and was about to leave.

"Wendy!"

Connor stopped the person who turned around, and said in a deep voice,
"I have something to talk to you about."

Lilith glanced at Connor, hesitated to speak, and finally had to leave.

"What's the matter with you?"

A beige turtleneck sweater was covered with a brown vest, and the lower body was a pair of slim-fit trousers. Her long hair was simply tied behind her head. Wendy looked the same as always.

Unlike Lilith's coquettish, her dress is very ordinary, but also comfortable.

This is the dress that someone praised a long time ago.

She doesn't want to change.

"You left suddenly because of the person Lilith mentioned, right? Neither I nor anyone else has been able to contact you in the past few days. Are you looking for him?"

"Any questions?"

Wendy didn't deny it, but just asked rhetorically.

"The tree world will face severe challenges. I need you to be fully prepared. Human beings should not be factors that affect our actions and judgments."

The dialogue between them does not require roundabout temptations, and absolute reason will allow both parties to come up with the best answer.

"This does not conflict with what I am doing now. He will not affect our plan. I am looking for him just to get an answer."

Looking straight into Connor's eyes, Wendy's answer was straightforward.

"Next, you will be in charge of the monitoring and follow-up of Community 35. I think Ouroboros will ask us for help in a short time. This is their opportunity, and it is also an excellent opportunity for us!"

"understood."

Turning around in silence, Wendy's figure disappeared beside the table.

Connor stood there watching her leave, then suddenly turned around and picked up his own glass of wine on the table, brought it to his mouth, paused for a few seconds, and then put it back on the table.

He clearly knew that this wine with excellent appearance was just a virtual product of data, and it would be tasteless to drink.

What he really wanted was the desire to drink.

For Connor.

It's just too difficult.
