Chapter 331 Dahai City Farm, the Three Major Powers in the World Today
Chapter 331 Dahai City Farm, the Three Major Powers in the World Today
"Farm? Boss, what do you mean by this?" Guo Fan fiddled with his earphones so that Cao Yanhua and others in the command center outside Dahai City could hear clearly.
Dahai City is shrouded in terrifying ghosts and there is actually no signal.
But in the "store manager's" ordinary worldview, how could a city like Dahai City have no signal, so even if they entered Dahai City, they could still contact the outside world.
And every time you participate in a supernatural event with the "store manager", the most important task is not to deal with the source of the event, but to guide the "store manager" and understand his cognition, to prevent the "store manager" from thinking about things in a strange way, and to respond to the situation in time.
Lin Yuan said: "Look at these buildings. They were originally ordinary people's buildings, but now they are surrounded by these black nano materials. Although they are still empty inside, they are obviously prepared for breeding. It's impossible that so much work is done to lock people up, right? It's just that these materials may not be made up to standard, and the smell is too strong. I don't know when it will dissipate."
As Lin Yuan finished speaking, the black grave soil that buried the buildings in the eyes of Yang Jian and Guo Fan suddenly changed slightly.
Overall there hasn't been much change, but if you look closely it no longer looks like dirt, but instead has a metallic luster.
Moreover, the unbearable stench had also changed. Although it was still very unpleasant, it had more of a pungent metallic smell.
It's like the smell of metal materials just made from a factory.
When Cao Yanhua and others at the headquarters heard this, they were immediately astonished.
"A breeding farm? This is consistent with the store manager's understanding of evil spirits. It seems that this Dahai City is finished. But the grave soil has turned into nanomaterials. Can it be the kind that can regenerate on its own?" Cao Yanhua is quite perceptive in changing his thinking.
Tong Qian breathed a sigh of relief, "The store manager is really capable. It looks like this supernatural incident can be properly resolved."
Cao Yanhua frowned at this, but he was helpless because Tong Qian was telling the truth. "Some things really cannot be changed by personal will."
Li Jun patted Cao Yanhua's shoulder comfortingly, and then everyone continued to listen to the sound transmitted back by the signal equipment.
"Xiao Yang, this involves a renovation project for a coastal city, which is a huge workload. Are you sure this is not a project of your headquarters?"
Listening to Lin Yuan's question, Yang Jian shook his head, "I don't know either."
"That's it, okay."
Lin Yuan was still unsatisfied, and it was obvious that he had something on his mind, but Yang Jianlai didn't know anything about it, so he didn't continue. "It seems that the transformation of this city is not yet complete. These nanomaterials are transforming the city, but the transformed sites have not yet been used by animals. And there are too many materials piled up on the road. Technology is really advanced now. Self-renewable nanomaterials can be thrown everywhere."
There were piles of graves on the road, one on the left and one on the right. There were so many of them and no pattern to them.
Guo Fan continued driving towards Fushou Garden under the guidance of Yang Jian. The road was not far. When they entered Dahai City, they were relatively close to Fushou Garden.
There were too many graves along the way, and in order to avoid hitting them, Guo Fan had to slow down the car.
The complex road conditions did not make Guo Fan feel tired. Instead, he was very excited and serious. His idea was very simple, "Now is the time to show my driving skills! Only by letting the store manager recognize my abilities and strengths can I keep my current position."
However, Lin Yuan's attention was not on him. "Xiao Yang, how was your time working at the headquarters? Did you encounter any trouble?"
"No, everyone is very nice."
In front of the "store manager", Yang Jian's emotions have returned to normal and he has turned back into the senior high school student instead of the ghost rider who has been invaded by the terrifying spirit.
Lin Yuan nodded. "By the way, how is the robot that I dug out during the treasure hunt in your hometown? Is it usable? What effect does it have?"
Lin Yuan still remembers this incident.
When talking about the "robot", Yang Jian's expression was a little strange. "I took the robot home, but it has not been started because of lack of power. It is still at home. For the time being, it can only be used as a large-sized figurine."
"That's it."
Lin Yuan felt a little regretful. He wanted to see Yang Xiao's craftsmanship level from more than ten years ago, but it turned out that there was a lack of energy?
"Boss, we've arrived at Fu Shou Yuan."
Guo Fan stopped the car steadily and looked at Lin Yuan with a smile on his face, with a hint of expectation in his eyes: My driving skills are so good and I drive so steadily, if not a reward, you should at least encourage and praise me, right?
"Okay, park the car and we'll get down and take a look."
Lin Yuan opened the door and got out of the car, leaving Guo Fan sad, his whole body turned gray.
Along the way, the buildings on the roadside were basically covered by black grave soil, turning into a larger grave mound. Unfortunately, in the cognition of the "store manager", they were all transformed into black nano-metal materials. In an instant, the weird city turned into a city full of technology.
Including Fu Shou Yuan.
Of course, there are some differences between here and other places, because there are not so many tall buildings here, and there is even good greenery.
Lin Yuan got out of the car and said to the people behind him, "Let's go and look to see if Granny Meng is here."
The robot Liu Qingqing was very obedient and walked directly into Fushou Garden, but Guo Fan asked, "Boss, doesn't the car need someone to watch it here? There is still payment for tonight's goods inside."
If it were just a car, then there would be nothing much to say.
However, the nine ghosts inside made Lin Yuan reluctant to leave. However, he felt relieved after taking a look at Yang Jian. "Xiao Yang, I won't bother you with finding someone. How about you help us look after the car?"
Yang Jian's eyes flickered, "Brother Yuan, do you trust me so much? These are nine animals, which is a huge sum of money."
Currently, the price of a ghost on the black market is ten small targets, and nine ghosts are ninety small targets. Although Yang Jian now has Shangtong Company, he does not have much demand for money.
But the nine ghosts could still be exchanged for a lot of good things, and even he was tempted.
"Haha, I believe you."
Lin Yuan patted Yang Jian on the shoulder, and then called Guo Fan to walk into Fushou Garden together. This made Yang Jian, who stayed there, feel inexplicably moved.
This feeling... seems to be really good.
"This place doesn't look like a farm. Why does it feel like a cemetery?" Lin Yuan walked on the path covered with black grave soil...nanomaterials, his eyes full of confusion.
Guo Fan didn't feel surprised either.
Because the Fu Shou Garden itself is just as Lin Yuan said, there are many ordinary people buried there, and ordinary materials are used. It is normal for it to be an ordinary grave in the eyes of the "store manager".
But now he no longer dared to speak nonsense, for fear of misleading the "store manager" and causing any unknown changes.
Fortunately, there was a signal, so he could receive instructions from the headquarters and knew how to explain, "Boss, you are not mistaken. This was originally a cemetery. It was also the tallest cemetery in Dahai City."
"I see. It seems that the situation in Dahai City is not simple this time."
Lin Yuan looked back and confirmed that Yang Jian could no longer hear their conversation. Then he whispered, "I always feel that there is something wrong with the situation in Dahai City."
What the hell!
Boss, what are you going to do?
Not to mention Guo Fan, even Cao Yanhua, Li Jun, Tong Qian and others in the temporary command center were nervous, fearing that the "store manager" would come up with some new settings.
Guo Fan asked nervously, "How do you say that?"
"If Dahai City was just foggy, there would be no way the headquarters would be on such alert. This feels like... do you think it's similar to Dachang City?"
As Lin Yuan spoke, he looked around. "Dahai City is an international metropolis after all, but we haven't seen a single person in such a long time. Moreover, such an economically developed area has been transformed into a super-large breeding farm using nanomaterials. Let's not talk about whether the headquarters has so many animals to raise. Just think about how much economic loss will be incurred by evacuating the residents of such a city and transforming such a metropolis? Is breeding the most profitable industry now? Or is there a hidden secret in it?"
Lin Yuan thought of the currency he was using now, "ghost money".
Although there is currency, most people who come to the store to shop use animals to pay.
As we said just now at the temporary command center, the current monetary system has been impacted, and the headquarters is unable to create a currency that is recognized by everyone, so animals have become hard currency.
But even so, it is not to the point of transforming a developed city like Dahai City into a breeding city.
Even if this was done, the headquarters would not be on such a high alert, as if there was an extremely terrible danger in Dahai City, forcing the headquarters to deploy heavy troops.
"Although I didn't look closely just now, I also noticed that there were a lot of teams gathering behind the command center. Roughly speaking, there were about two to three thousand people, and the firefighting and medical services were all very well equipped. This shows that the situation in Dahai City is very dangerous and there is a possibility of casualties."
Lin Yuan said this, his brows filled with worry.
Guo Fan felt something was wrong when he heard this, and asked quickly: "Boss, since you have already seen it, why do you still want to enter Dahai City? Isn't it too dangerous?"
Lin Yuan shook his head. "It's different. Granny Meng is a member of our store. As the store manager, if she is in danger, it is my responsibility to bring her back safely. As for your safety, don't worry. I also have some life-saving methods. Even if I encounter danger, I can protect you."
The means he was talking about was naturally the ability of the "golden finger" to shake people.
The security guard, the ghost catcher, Lao Fan, the watchdog, the knocking ghost, Lao Hei, the watchdog, the starving ghost, Lao Hua, and even the breeder, Li Qingzhi, are all very powerful helpers and the ones he trusts the most.
As long as they come, even if we can't solve the danger here, at least there will be no problem in escaping safely.
Guo Fan was relieved when he heard this. He was worried that the "store manager" would say "I can't guarantee everyone's safety either", which would mean that there would definitely be danger or even casualties. If it really came to that, he would definitely have to find a chance to escape, otherwise would he have to stay here and wait to die?
Since the "store manager" guaranteed everyone's safety, Guo Fan felt relieved. As for the voice of Cao Yanhua scolding him for talking nonsense in the headphones?
Just pretend you didn't hear it.
When a general is away from the battlefield, he is not subject to military orders.
"Boss, what do you think the danger is here?" After removing the reprimanding voice, Guo Fan continued to listen to the instructions from the headquarters and began to guide the "store manager" to characterize this supernatural incident.
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be a monster invasion. Otherwise, Dahai City should be full of wild beasts at this time. But I think there is only one possibility that could cause this situation now, and that is... some guys who are on the anti-human side are creating panic."
"what?"
Guo Fan didn't quite understand what he meant, but Cao Yanhua did. His face turned pale. "Is this how the store manager characterizes this supernatural incident?"
Tong Qian asked in confusion: "Deputy Minister, I don't seem to understand."
Cao Yanhua smiled bitterly and said, "In the store manager's worldview, we are currently in an era of highly developed biotechnology, but this era is not safe, but rather very chaotic. There are three main forces. One is represented by our headquarters, which protects the civilian population; one is the wild beasts that escaped from the biotechnology laboratory and have wisdom and special abilities. In our cognition, they are ghosts, but in the store manager's cognition, they are monsters; the last party is what the store manager just said about the anti-human party, or the people who have biotechnology but do not stand on the side of humans, but instead privately create monsters and want to use the power of monsters to gain status and power."
Tong Qian said seriously, "That is to say, in the manager's opinion, the situation in Dahai City was created by a third party, namely those ambitious people?"
"That's right. If it is set up like this, then there might not just be one 'demon beast' in Dahai City, but many, and they are all very scary. There might even be BOSS-level ones, because the ambitious people who can mass-produce 'demon beasts' will definitely have more powerful means. Dahai City may really be finished." Cao Yanhua's face was bitter.
In the eyes of the "store manager", today's era is very dangerous and chaotic, and the population has greatly decreased. Even in developed cities like Dahai City, the population is not large.
But Cao Yanhua knew very well that there were tens of millions of people in this Dahai City. Those who escaped in the end... and the supernatural forum responsible for handling supernatural events in Dahai City should have been destroyed.
Only Ye Zhen has not appeared since he disappeared from the Peace Hotel, so he can be considered to have escaped.
I just don’t know, if Ye Zhen stayed in Dahai City during this period of time, would such a situation occur?
"Don't worry, as long as the store manager goes there, he will definitely solve this problem. No matter how many ghosts there are, can they be more than the Ghost Lake and the Caesar Hotel? Can't the store manager handle it?" Li Jun was full of confidence in the "store manager".
Cao Yanhua sighed, "What I'm worried about is, can Li Leping and the others really come back safely?"
In Fushou Garden, Guo Fan listened to the conversation in the headphones and did not feel despair or anything like that. He had already experienced the despair of this era.
Having clung to the "store manager's" thigh, he no longer worried about dying inexplicably. All he had to do was... play the restaurant management game with the "store manager".
The employees of the Peace Hotel have their lives protected.
Soon they came to a fork in the road. As soon as Lin Yuan raised his hand, Guo Fan's face turned pale. "Boss, it's so dangerous here. I don't trust you to go alone. Let's go together. Even if there is any scary monster rushing out, I can help you block it."
"Look how scared you are, and yet you're still trying to block it for me. Just don't get so scared that your legs go limp."
Lin Yuan said unhappily, but still took out the Black Star from his arms and threw it to Guo Fan, "Be careful. It's too dangerous here. We'd better act separately. Even if we can't find Granny Meng, at least we have to make sure she's not here, then we can leave."
Guo Fan took the Black Star and felt much more at ease.
When he was in Kobe City on the island nation, he had used this Black Star, and it was very effective. Even if a fierce ghost came, he could kill it with one shot, giving him a full sense of security.
but……
"Then Boss, I'll take the road on the left."
"it is good."
"Boss, I'm really leaving."
“…Get out of here!”
"Okay!"
After driving Guo Fan away, Lin Yuan reached into his arms and took out the Barrett rifle that was almost as tall as him. "I still feel good using this gun."
Holding Barrett tightly, Lin Yuan did not move forward immediately, but...
"Lao Jin, help me send Lao Hei over here!"
Fight alone?
nonexistent.
If there is nothing wrong with Dahai City, then just think of it as coming out to digest the food at night. But since you have discovered that something is wrong here, it would be foolish of you to rush forward alone. That would be a mistake in your brain.
But we are not in danger yet, so every bit of savings counts.
Giving the "Golden Finger" to someone else will also require consumption, several pieces of wax meat. In this era of soaring prices, any bit of meat is an extremely scarce resource.
Soon, Lao Hei was sent over.
When it came over, it was lying on the ground, and then it stood up. Its black hair was shiny and reflective even in the mist of the night.
He was also very tall, and his head almost reached Lin Yuan's chest.
Lin Yuan was very satisfied with the sturdy body. "Last time, it was Lao Hua who worked with me, but Lao Hei, you are stronger and more suitable for being a gun stand."
"Wang!"
Lao Hei didn't eat the parrot and didn't know how to say "Welcome", so naturally he could only use the most primitive calls to express his feelings.
"Don't worry, I won't let you run in vain."
As he spoke, Lin Yuan took out a bone from his arms. This bone was as thick as a human thigh. Lao Hei's eyes lit up and he kept barking "Woof woof woof".
But it wasn't until Lin Yuan put the bone on the ground that it took a bite.
Click!
Click!
With a series of crisp sounds, Lao Hei bit the big bone into pieces and swallowed it in a few bites. His jet-black hair seemed to become even more shiny.
"Are you full? Now that you are full, let's start working."
Lin Yuan took out another object from his arms. It was a surrogate doll sold on the shelf behind the cash register. He handed the surrogate doll to Lao Hei and said, "Smell it, and then look around to see if you can find Granny Meng."
"Wang!"
Lao Hei sniffed the scapegoat doll hard, then turned around and ran in one direction.
Lin Yuan quickly followed, and the man and the dog ran towards the depths of Fushou Garden. A few seconds later, Guo Fan followed stealthily, muttering as he ran: "The boss is a bit too much. He sent me away before secretly summoning Lao Hei over. This is simply too much! No, I have to follow him to avoid danger!"
It was already early morning, and there were street lights in Fushou Garden, but the light was very dim. Plus, there were graves of all sizes all around, making it look very eerie and strange.
Lao Hei ran in front, Lin Yuan followed behind, and at the end, Guo Fan was hanging.
The graves on both sides of the path were like spectators witnessing the two men and the dog, silent and silent. Until they reached a crossroads, Lao Hei stopped and Lin Yuan also stopped.
Guo Fan parked the farthest, but at this moment his heart sank to the bottom.
I saw a small and cute figure sitting on a tombstone on the right side of the intersection. She had two ponytails and delicate features. It seemed that she must have been a very cute girl when she was alive.
But at this moment, the girl's face was pale and bloodless. She just sat on the tombstone, and her light-colored dress was stained with grave soil.
Behind the tombstone under the girl's buttocks, the grave had collapsed.
No matter how you look at it, this girl looks like she just crawled out of a grave. She is obviously a... ghost!
Guo Fan immediately raised the Black Star, but he felt something was wrong, because even the "store manager" and Lao Hei hadn't taken any action yet, so why should he be anxious?
Of course, Lin Yuan also noticed this figure, and said in a strange tone: "Crow? It looks a bit like a parrot. It is covered with too many nanomaterials, so it is not very clear. But my previous guess should be correct. This is indeed a breeding farm. I just don't know if this bird is a monster. If so..."
Lin Yuan's eyes lit up.
He had previously fed a macaw to the starving ghost Lao Hua, so that Lao Hua could learn to say "welcome". Now that Lao Hei is back, doesn't he have to get one too?
There are no other animals here, so maybe we can give it a try?
As Lin Yuan finished his words, the lovely girl's body quickly condensed and soon turned into a bird that looked like a crow or a parrot.
It's not an illusion, but because the "store manager" has not yet defined it, its appearance has not been determined.
Guo Fan breathed a sigh of relief, and then a sharp and piercing voice came into his ears, making his consciousness begin to fade: "Leave here!"
