Becoming Stronger After Death: I Keep Seeking Death in the World of the Universe.

Chapter 230: The Mall Before the War

"So, you guys reached some kind of agreement, right?"

Xu Wang now understood why that fat Ghosn turned a blind eye to Su Cao.

As he said that, Xu Wang threw the remaining 7 coins to Su Cao.

The deal was reached, and now Xu Wang planned to explore this Liumu City, which was transformed from a large shopping mall, on his own.

"Then I'll be leaving first. If possible, you'd better change your uniform. This outfit is too conspicuous and may cause some unnecessary trouble."

Su Cao got the money and wanted to leave immediately.

His friend is sick and needs money urgently.

The little boy didn't want to waste time.

"Okay, go ahead. You're a good kid. If you run into trouble in the future, you can call me up."

Xu Wang waved his hand, held his head high and chest out, looking like an older brother.

Su Cao was helpless. He had never heard of Xu Wang's name, so what was the point in reporting his name?

But at least he had just done a business deal for someone else, so Su Cao kept nodding and saying "yeah, yeah, yeah".

It's just to appease others.

"I'm sorry, but you can't leave now."

Su Cao was just about to leave.

But he found himself stopped by a group of guards behind him.

The leader was a man with a high nose, deep eyes, golden hair, and a somewhat thin and sinister look.

These guards were all wearing uniforms similar to security uniforms.

They just wore bulletproof vests on the outside and helmets on their heads.

Xu Wang took a special look and was surprised to find that these people did not carry guns.

In a dangerous environment like the wasteland, even wastelanders will try their best to get the worst possible iron barrel pistol.

It is very strange that the security forces in Rokuki Castle do not carry guns.

"Hello, Captain Thomas."

Su Cao seemed to know the man, and suddenly his face was full of fear. He quickly greeted him, and then pretended to be stupid and said, "What do you mean?"

Thomas seemed a little impatient, and he waved his hand: "The City Hall has already said that you are not allowed to bring outsiders in and out of Liumu City privately. If you want to enter the city, you must go through the passage of the City Hall.

Do you know how dangerous your behavior is? If you bring in dangerous people and others get hurt, can you be responsible?"

Xu Wang suddenly understood after hearing this, and turned to look at Su Cao next to him: "Hey! What he said seems to make sense."

Su Cao's face was full of bitterness.

He was caught red-handed, what else could he say now?

As for accidentally bringing a dangerous person into Rokuki Castle, that is indeed a possibility.

But as a local, Su Cao knew that these were just excuses given by the guards to fool people.

If you want to enter the city, just pay money.

They don't check ID at all.

"According to the laws of the City Hall, you are under arrest, boy. Surrender your resident status and pay a fine of 5000 coins. It doesn't matter if you don't have enough money, we will lend it to you, but you have to work as a slave to pay it back. What we say, is it clear?"

Thomas waved his hand, and several guards around him immediately surrounded him.

Xu Wang and Su Cao were surrounded in the middle.

Then Thomas looked at Xu Wang again and snorted disdainfully: "Another blue mole. No matter who you were before the war, you have to abide by the rules here. Smuggling into Liumu City will require a 10-fold fine. If you pay 1000 coins, we can still let you go."

Thomas was talking.

In the spacious shopping mall hall, four protector robots staggered over.

Xu Wang had seen these robots in Bing Town before.

At that time, the cockroach people attacked Biscuit Town.

In order to protect the town of Cake, the bartenders in San Francisco took out several of them for guarding force.

The protectors here in Liumu Castle look similar to those in Bing Town, except that the weapons in their hands have been upgraded.

Transformed into two laser launchers.

Xu Wang also keenly noticed that inside the mall, many cameras and fixed machine guns were also moving towards this side.

It seems that the real armed force in Rokuki Castle is these things, not the guards.

"Please obey federal laws and be good citizens!"

"The mall is closed, please leave in an orderly manner..."

"Nuka-Cola! Unique flavor to stimulate your taste buds..."

Several protector robots near this side were moving while playing various broadcasts in a loop.

After listening to this, Xu Wang combined it with everything he had seen so far, and the amazing wisdom instantly made him think of a possibility.

"Hey! Blue Rat! Did you hear me? Either give me money or go to jail! Did you hear me?"

As Thomas spoke, he swung a baseball bat with an electromagnetic coil wrapped around it towards Xu Wang!

There was an arc of electricity flashing on the bat, obviously wanting to teach Xu Wang a lesson first.

Xu Wang stepped forward and raised his hand, grabbed the end of the bat, then kicked Thomas out!
The sudden change shocked the guards around.

It seemed that he didn't expect Xu Wang to suddenly take action.

Xu Wangze waved the bat he had just snatched and pressed the button on it.

All I heard was a series of crackling sounds.

A bright arc of electricity suddenly jumped and flashed on the bat.

Ok……

A weapon with a very wasteland-style mix.

Pointing the bat at the guards in front of him, Xu Wang angrily said, "I usually rob others, but today you guys robbed me. You accuse me of sneaking across the border? Do you have any evidence?"

"Fuck! You are not a resident of Rokugi Castle at all. You are not a smuggler. Don't waste your time talking to him. Go ahead!"

Thomas' ribs were broken by Xu Wang's kick, and he was lying on the ground, almost suffocating in pain.

Xu Wang immediately ignited his anger and urged his men to take action.

Xu Wang shook his head and looked down at his personal terminal: "No, you are not residents here. I didn't see your names on the list."

The guards ignored Xu Wang's nonsense, drew their weapons, and ran towards Xu Wang.

As a result, a protector robot nearby stood in front of Xu Wang, raised its mechanical arm, and knocked over a guard who rushed up.

The Nuka-Cola-painted protector robot looked at the guards and said in a voice without any emotion: "The mall is closed. No non-business personnel are allowed to enter. Warning! Warning! Warning!

Call the police, you can attack! "

As he spoke, red laser beams shot out!
The terrified guard on the ground was immediately pierced through the body by the high-temperature laser and died instantly on the spot.

The other guards saw this and seemed to have thought of something. They were so scared that they screamed, "You can't do this! You can't attack us! Our identities are logged in!"

"what--!!!"

But the guard robots didn't listen to them at all.

There is no information on these people in the database.

They had no employee ID and were treated as intruders.

"Shhhhhh!"

Lasers shot out.

Along with the sound of robots' footsteps, the guards were shot dead one by one on the spot.

Thomas reacted quickly. He seemed to realize that there was something wrong with his identity, so he quickly took out a stamp from his pocket and stamped himself.

"call out--!"

At this time, a laser had pierced his thigh.

Thomas screamed as the seal was stamped on his body. It was the employee certificate of [Second Uncle’s Pork Store].

As the seal was stamped, the robots that were killing everyone in sight stopped attacking instantly.

This made Thomas breathe a sigh of relief.

"Wow, you're quite smart and quick to react. You're worthy of being the team leader."

The sudden voice from behind made Thomas tense up!
He quickly turned around, only to be hit head-on by a swinging baseball bat!
"bump!"

Thomas' eyes rolled back and he fell to the ground after being hit by Xu Wang's baseball bat.

Throwing away the bat casually, Xu Wang picked up the seal next to Thomas and looked at it curiously.

Then he looked at the seal on his left hand.

Only then did I discover that there were indeed Federal language characters on it.

He owns a strange shop called [Good Baby Adult Products].

I don’t know whether this good boy is serious or not.

Anyway, Xu Wang felt that he was quite serious, and this stamp was somewhat unsuitable for him.

"Xu Wang, you..."

Su Cao looked at Xu Wang, her little face full of surprise and confusion.

The situation developed so quickly that before he could even react, all the guards surrounding them were dead.

They were all killed by the protector robots in Rokuki Castle.

This made Su Cao feel like he was in a dream, and his little brain went blank.

Xu Wangze looked calm, with his hands on his hips, looking at the body on the ground and shaking his head helplessly: "It really is a big city. People here are relaxed and fall asleep as soon as they lie down."

Su Cao finally reacted at this time, and he quickly said: "Not good, you killed the guards of Liumu City, you can't stay here anymore, run quickly, they will never let you go."

"It's okay, it's okay. Go ahead and do your work. Since I'm here, I'm planning to put my name here."

Xu Wang waved at Su Cao, not caring at all.

Seeing this, Su Cao gritted his teeth, hesitated for a while, then turned and ran away: "Anyway, thank you, but I can't be caught on the spot again."

Su Cao ran away and Xu Wang did not stop her.

The two parties only met once and their relationship is not that close.

Looking at the display on his personal terminal again, Xu Wang now almost figured out where these strange rules of Liumu City came from.

I already knew this.

Rokuki Castle was built on the basis of a huge shopping mall.

However, it might be because the post-war wastelanders’ technology was not up to standard.

They cannot change the underlying operating logic of the mall and can only make repairs and additions to it.

Finally it became what it is today.

The entire mall is actually controlled by an AI.

This was what was called an automated mall before the war.

The resident ID card that Su Cao mentioned is actually the identity of the shop owner registered in the mall.

After entering the door, the stamp is the employee certificate of each store.

In addition to being an employee certificate, it also represents the employees' working hours.

For more than two hundred years, no one knew who had built the mall into a closed state.

Therefore, anyone who is not a shop equity owner or does not have an employee certificate.

They will be attacked by the defense forces in the mall.

From this point of view, the pre-war Human Federation was actually quite crazy.

It is worthy of being called the garbage dump of the universe.

Whoever lives here is crazy.

After figuring out the truth about Liumu Castle through various details, Xu Wang knew what to do.

So he immediately let his main god AI invade and control the mall AI of Liumu City.

Through camera recognition, the identities of the guards were captured, and then they were directly deleted from the "resident list".

Finally it became what it is today.

Xu Wang didn't care about what he had done.

He originally came to visit Rokuki Castle, and by the way, he also wanted to promote his identity as a wilderness hunter so that he could receive more interesting commissions.

This way, his life in the wasteland wouldn't be boring.

Without taking the guards seriously at all, Xu Wang walked straight into the mall.

He was so happy that he wanted to find the Sanfan Tavern here.

It just so happened that there was such a big commotion here.

Many people appeared around and cast puzzled glances in this direction.

After seeing the corpse on the ground, everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Then there was a noisy and hurried sound of footsteps.

More guards were running towards them.

Obviously he knew the situation here.

However, even in Rokuki City, they still did not carry any firearms, but only carried various modified cold weapons as weapons.

It seems that the use of firearms is indeed prohibited in the mall.

Seeing the group of guards rushing over there, Xu Wang sighed: "I just want to be a famous wasteland hunter and live my life well, why does it always develop to this extent."

Xu Wang stopped helplessly.

Seeing the group of guards running towards him, Xu Wang shouted, "Come on! Since you are not afraid of death, don't blame me for killing you all and kicking you all off the list of residents."

"No, no, no!"

Most of the guards looked confused.

They didn't know what had happened here, but they came here only after receiving the order from their superiors.

But one of them seemed to have figured out what was going on.

This time I came here just for Xu Wang.

Upon hearing Xu Wang's words, a middle-aged woman squeezed out from the crowd of guards.

She looked at Xu Wang, a little excited: "Don't get me wrong, we have no ill intentions, and these people are here to protect you. I am the mayor of Liumu City, can I have a word with you?"

As the middle-aged woman spoke, she saw Xu Wang's shelter uniform and the personal terminal in his hand. She became more convinced of her thoughts and the joy on her face was particularly obvious.

This development seemed a little strange, and it made Xu Wang somewhat confused.

Xu Wang looked at the people in front of him in confusion and said, "Aren't you here to fight me? I just killed one of your people.

According to the normal development, shouldn't you be angry and make trouble for me, and then be beaten to a pulp by me alone?"

The middle-aged woman was also stunned when she heard this. Although she didn't know where Xu Wang got such confidence from, she quickly waved her hand and smiled, "Of course not, you are from the shelter, right? You are a distinguished guest. I know the owner of the Sanfan Tavern, and she is also a resident of the shelter.

Maybe you can have something in common. I can introduce you to someone later.

Can you spare a moment now to talk to me about your AI permissions?
