Chapter 176 Varela City Alert
"What happened to Varela City?!"

Chen Fan's words caused a stir, and Chen Fan's words directly shattered the psychological defenses of the two assistants.

Isa hurriedly ran to Chen Fan's side, leaning her head anxiously to look at the holographic projection in front of him.

When she saw the familiar city in the holographic projection and the increasing number of omnics around her, her face suddenly became ugly.

"This……"

Isa's smart right eye showed a rare hint of panic: "How could omnics attack Varela City?"

As soon as she said the words, the scene in the Haian Deep Space Observatory flashed in her mind.

The drone lens controlled by [Source] slowly swept across the three people and stayed on her body for a few seconds.

Thinking of that dark camera that seemed to be able to suck all the light into it, Isa felt her heart tremble slightly.

It must have happened at that time!
Isa had a clear understanding in her heart. At that time, [Source] must have realized her identity and traced it back to the top of Varela City!

As for Chen Fan...

Maybe it's because of Chen Fan, or maybe it's because of the pope, but in short, the attitude of the aboriginal people in Varela City towards these refugees who have left their homes is not bad.

"One, help me contact Xu Huai!"

"Your Excellency Chen Fan, I..."

'This machine needs to remind you a little. '

I never expected that a quasi-level II artificial intelligence would secretly engage in such little tricks behind my back!

He is just a small assistant investigator. If Chen Fan hadn't helped him, he would have died as "fuel" on the experimental platform of the North Church - yes, after leaving Varela City and After receiving basic preschool education from the People's Federation, he has fully understood the real situation in Varela City.

Of course, Varela City's infrastructure renovation work should also account for a lot of reasons.

It’s almost time to catch up with the two small buildings in the wealthy area of ​​Kukan Underground City!

Although the appearance of this small bungalow looks shabby, its area is quite luxurious.

This is a beautiful scenery that you will never see in the underground city!
It has been a short time since I moved from Kukan Underground City to Varela City.

Chen Fan suddenly fell into silence.

He can't hold a machine and talk freely about morality and the rule of law, right?

Hong Chengdong breathed a long sigh of relief, and a pleasant smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Sensing the black mud gushing out of Chen Fan's heart, Yi's voice sounded in his mind:

With that said, Chen Fan raised his hand and put it on Isa's head and rubbed it gently.

Hong Chengdong sat on the open space in front of his house, squinting his eyes slightly and looking up at the extremely vast sky above his head.

At this moment, there were only a few words echoing in his mind:
This little omnic has no martial ethics!
Come steal! Come and cheat! Make a sneak attack! !

She lowered her head slightly, and a strand of silver-white hair slipped out from the wide black hood: "This matter is my problem..."

Don't tell me, what I said does make some sense.

Therefore, seeing that Chen Fan did not reply immediately, Gao Yuan silently shut his mouth and stopped interfering with Chen Fan's decision-making.

"Brother Fan, what do you mean..."

Varela City.

For the survivors of the underground city, this is not a big difficulty - although the Kukan underground city has lost most of the inheritance from the prosperous era, there are still many "pheasants" in the Kukan underground city. Engineer's.

"No, it's not you." Chen Fan's calm voice interrupted Isa's words, "Since Varela City escaped from [Source]'s control, this is an inevitable event."

Gao Yuan's voice also contained a hint of anxiety.

After experiencing the initial confusion, Hong Chengdong gradually got used to life in Varela City.

Ding Ding Dangdang ...

With the help of the residents of Kukan Underground City, Varela City's circuit and communication network systems have been basically completed. What needs to be done now is to build basic industrial equipment around these main lines and climb up the technology tree again.

That being said, he has a pretty clear idea of ​​who he is.

Especially after experiencing the big battle just now, he became more aware of the importance of Chen Fan's own mission.

Isha, who knew how important Varela City was to Chen Fan, bit her lips lightly and her eyes dimmed.

He did not notice the entanglement and anxiety in Gao Yuan's heart.

After all, his relatives still live in Varela City!

'Not to mention quasi-level II, even true level II artificial intelligence cannot grasp the emotions of intelligent creatures. '

"Even without you, [Yuan] would still attack Varela City."

Having been at the bottom of the dungeon all year round, he can be regarded as enjoying a privilege: under the care of Chen Fan, he was assigned a small bungalow with an independent courtyard.

'So... I suggest you not to apply human morality to [Yuan]. '

Chen Fan issued the order in a deep voice.

……

So beautiful...

Tiny sounds came from outside the courtyard gate.

Hong Chengdong lowered his head and looked outside the courtyard door.

A familiar metal track appeared on the road outside the courtyard gate.

A young man with a sinewy face bent down and carefully laid sections of sleepers on the ground. After ensuring that the spacing was correct, small rails were set up on the sleepers.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Hong Chengdong suddenly became happy:
Hey! Isn't this the track used by those dungeon minecarts? !
Not only that, he also knew the man who laid the railroad tracks!

"Hey, Huang Laosan!"

Hong Chengdong greeted with a smile: "Why did you come here to build the railway?"

Hearing this familiar call, Huang Laosan was stunned, raised his head and looked at Hong Chengdong: "Dong...Uncle Dong?"

Hearing Uncle Dong's words, the smile on Hong Chengdong's face became more intense: "Why, you are a salvage person and don't want to go shopping outside the city?" A bitter smile suddenly appeared on Huang Laosan's face.

He waved his hands repeatedly: "Uncle Dong, please stop teasing me."

"After finally finding a stable living environment, who would want to go outside the city?"

"The railway construction work is also very good. In order to complete the laying of the main road as soon as possible, the city lord...the church also gave a lot of subsidies."

Hong Chengdong was a little surprised: "Is there any subsidy for doing this job now?"

"Of course!" Huang Laosan nodded repeatedly, "But it's still not as high as the subsidy for going out of the city. The mineral resources in Varela are not abundant. Since the railway project started, those steel-making blast furnaces have not stopped."

"So... going out of the city to mine and search for new mineral veins has become a popular business."

Huang Laosan seemed to have remembered something, with a look of envy in his eyes: "Of course, the most profitable ones are the engineers."

"In Kukan Underground City they can only repair the most basic devices, but here... they are very popular."

Hong Chengdong nodded, not too surprised by Huang Laosan's words.

The infrastructure construction of Varela City has just begun, and those engineers with real skills are bound to be popular.

But he is just a rough man, and he really has no talent or ability in this area, otherwise he would not be reduced to salvaging people.

On the contrary, it is the mining and ore prospecting work outside the city...

Hong Chengdong was a little moved when he thought of some of the open-pit mines he had discovered before.

"Xiao Jiang!" he shouted loudly.

"Hey!" Jiang Haichuan, who was trying to modify the circuit of the house while holding a few wires in his hand, emerged from the bungalow behind him, "Uncle Dong, are you looking for me?"

"Go and tell those brothers from before that we will leave the city in two days... no, we will leave the city tomorrow!"

Jiang Haichuan's eyes suddenly lit up: "Uncle Dong, you..."

"Go out of the city to look for mines!" Hong Chengdong laughed loudly, "After so many years of rest, it's time for us to continue our old profession!"

"okay!"

Jiang Haichuan responded hurriedly without any hesitation.

Rumble…

A dull, thunderous sound came from the northwest of Varela City, and the smile that had just appeared on Hong Chengdong's face froze.

This is……

Explosion?
Hong Chengdong's eyes moved, he stood up and looked in the direction of the sound.

Saw nothing.

But he still had some bad thoughts in his mind - if he remembered correctly, the northwest was the area Chen Fan was heading to!
Thinking of the shocking explosion not long ago, Hong Chengdong's uneasiness became more intense.

"Uncle Dong?"

Not only Hong Chengdong, but Jiang Haichuan, who was holding a few wires in his hand, also realized the problem: "Could it be Brother Fan..."

Hong Chengdong didn't speak, just looked northwest quietly.

As time passed, a looming cloud with a strange shape appeared at the end of the line of sight.

It's a mushroom cloud!

Before Hong Chengdong could recover, another thunderous rumble echoed in the air.

This time, Hong Chengdong's expression completely changed.

Two explosions in a row!

Could it be that Chen Fan encountered a large-scale omnic attack?
Will this affect Varela City?

"go!"

Hong Chengdong pondered for a moment, then greeted Jiang Haichuan and walked towards the open door: "Follow me to the North Church to find the Pope!"

"No matter what, the Pope must be prepared in advance!"

……

The door of the North Church was open, and Xu Huai, wearing a luxurious papal robe, stood quietly at the door of the North Church.

She looked up at the sky above her head, with some deep worry in her eyes.

Just now, five extremely dull rumbling sounds came from the west of Varela City.

Like thunder.

But the weather at this time was very clear and cloudless, and there was no possibility of thunder at all.

As time goes by, five huge mushroom clouds rise slowly at the end of the sight.

To be precise, there are four large mushroom clouds and one relatively small mushroom cloud.

This abnormal situation naturally attracted the attention of many people, especially those residents from Kukan Underground City.

"Uncle Dong, what you mean is..."

"Chen Fan may be in danger?"

Xu Huai turned sideways and asked Hong Chengdong beside him.

"That should be the case." Hong Chengdong nodded, "Your Majesty the Pope, I don't think you need to worry too much about Chen Fan's situation."

"On the contrary, if it is a large-scale omnic attack..."

Hong Chengdong didn't hide anything: "I'm more worried that Varela City will be affected."

Xu Huai understood the meaning of Hong Chengdong's words.

She suppressed her uneasiness and nodded to Hong Chengdong: "I understand."

"Varilla City will be on alert soon."
