Abnormal Doomsday Records

Chapter 107. Santa Claus has come to town, and today is the day for making wishes

"bang bang bang"

The muffled sound of gunfire echoed in the luxurious room, and the excellent soundproofing effect dashed the victim's last hope.

He dragged his heavy body and crawled on the floor. The blood oozing from his wounds left miserable marks on the ground. His eyes were filled with fear and confusion.

He couldn't imagine why two dangerous thugs would suddenly break into his home when the whole city was under martial law. Even more terrible was why the security system that he had spent a lot of money to configure was as silent as a Kun when he was attacked?
When the psychic storm blows, shouldn't there be fully armed mechanical police officers patrolling the streets?

When the thugs rushed into the villa with weapons, shouldn't the security guards who were hired at a high price have discovered it in advance?
There are also advanced intelligent machines that I bought myself!
Dry!
Didn’t the sales staff of Maca Group promise that those powerful robots could protect themselves in any situation?

"Ugh!"

He cried out in pain and tried to crawl towards the wall in front of him.

There is a fixed pager there. If you can get it, you will have the last life-saving straw!

"boom"

The flying bullet hit his raised palm, and the high-ranking executive of the Panis Group screamed and fell to the ground in pain as blood spurted out.

When he was about to suffocate from the pain, something hit him violently in front of his eyes.

It was a mechanical arm that had been torn off by brute force, with electric sparks still jumping at the broken end. However, the bionic skin on its surface was very realistic, making it look like a woman's arm that had been torn off. The knuckles that were wearing beautiful gem rings were still twitching.

Don't even mention how horrifying it is.

Now, Mr. Executive finally stopped complaining about the mechanical guards he bought at a high price for not doing their job. They really tried very hard to protect their master, but the attackers were too violent.

"Well, I was wondering before, are there really normal people who would be in heat for a robot? I thought that the fact that I could meet Bert was proof of the diversity of humans in the Bad Land, but I didn't expect to meet another one today."

A teasing and sarcastic voice sounded behind him.

While changing the magazine for his pistol, Zhou Ke stepped forward on the bloodstains, squatted down and put the muzzle of the gun against his fat neck.

他 说:

"You old man are really good at playing! You bought the security guards at a high price and insisted on customizing them into such an exaggerated appearance. Can so many silicone pads make them more resistant to beatings, or can the customized hip motors make them easier to dodge bullets?

I'm sorry, but my girl told me that you put too many stupid components on your guards for fun, which made them unable to even exert the most basic combat capabilities.

And I suspect you must have strengthened your kidneys a bit."

"Do not kill me!"

The people on the ground screamed and begged for mercy:

"I can give you anything you want! Money? Or something else? I'll give it to you! Spare my life!"

"Oh, I do want something. I want it so badly that I am going crazy!"

Zhou Ke gave a wistful smile.

He stared at the victim in front of him with bloodshot eyes and said:
"I want to see the Panis Group collapse amidst the wild laughter of my Moni brothers. I want to see little Acholi, who is destined to be the scapegoat, jumping up and down in the arms of his mistress. I want to see all the top executives of the consortium realize that power cannot protect them in this deformed world and become restless.

Yes!

I want to see Central City, and the entire surface world and Heaven in the stars, burning!
Your Excellency, come here!
Please give me what I want, if you are really as powerful as you say."

This answer would not work for the injured person lying on the ground.

At this moment he even forgot the pain and looked at the handsome gangster in front of him with astonishment. He seriously doubted whether he had offended a madman.

"Well, it seems you can't give it to me. What a pity. You're not the Santa Claus I was expecting, so I can only take it myself."

Zhou Ke raised his head and looked at D-4 who was dismantling the last security guard not far away. He gave her an appreciative smile and then pulled the trigger.

"boom"

The red and white mixed together and exploded, forming a very visually impactful picture on the already dirty floor.

When Zhou Ke wiped the blood off his fingers and stood up, Wu Neng reminded him:
“This guy has some kind of chip in his body that monitors his vital signs. His death will attract the attention of the special department of the Acholi Consortium. We have to leave immediately.

The route has been planned!
The personal aircraft above the villa has been unlocked. It is the most suitable means of transportation at the moment."

"Very well, how can I live without you by my side, Wu Neng."

Zhou Ke waved to D-4, and the two quickly rushed to the roof. As they entered the black cool aircraft, Zhou Ke stretched his neck and said:

"We have to hurry up. The city-state has been peaceful for so many years, but this is the only chance they have to be so careless. Everyone cherishes their lives, and this will make those who survive protect themselves more carefully. It will be difficult for them to cause trouble next time.

So, quickly mark the next target! "

"This machine is very worried about your situation."

Wu Neng reminded:
"Although your mood has visibly improved, your intracranial pressure remains at a very dangerous level."

"I don't think this is a problem. Just watch and see if you don't believe me."

Zhou Ke covered his forehead with his hand and used the signature skill of "Evil Earth Male Succubus" on himself. He could clearly feel that something in his body was being extracted.

This feeling is very strange.

He could clearly feel a part of his "self" being taken away, which gave him a strange feeling of emptiness. But after a few minutes, Wu Neng exclaimed:
"Zhao! Has the intracranial pressure really dropped? Is it so simple and crude? If you knew there was such a treatment method, why didn't you use it before? You made me worry for nothing."

"Because it only treats the symptoms, you stupid machine."

Zhou Ke, who was flying in a flying vehicle in the gray psychic storm, sighed and said:
"I discovered before that every time I use energy extraction on myself, although it can calm my restless emotions, it will cause more abnormal energy to escape from my body next time. The whole cycle is like drinking poison to quench thirst.

In the past, I didn't dare to use it carelessly, for fear that my situation would get out of control. However, after Mulan, the charlatan, made his guess, I thought about it and felt that he had some truth in it.

If the essence of this ability is to purify my own energy, then I should quickly shape that special mask to the point where it can be worn.

In his words, this is a special 'path to ascension' that only I can use."

"But Mr. Mullan made it clear that it was just his conjecture and lacked evidence to support it."

D-4, who was driving the aircraft, reminded:
“You shouldn’t take that risk.”

"Or maybe we can stay in this cabin and use some really dirty methods for you to help me relieve stress? Come on, the pitiful dopamine obtained under the drive of hormones is not enough to soothe a chronically restless soul.

I told you your stupid tricks are useless!"

Zhou Ke curled his lips and said:
"In this situation, I'm already lucky enough to have a way to contain the crisis. What else do I need? I can still hold on. I have to get busy today. Well, I still need to find more of this kind of unplanned fun. I can clearly feel that my San value, which has hit the bottom, is rising again.

Indeed, men need to learn to entertain themselves."

"Your way of entertaining yourself is a little too scary."

Wu Neng complained:
"If you have to kill a few high-ranking members of the consortium every time the pressure increases, I would suggest that you leave the city-state area as soon as possible. People here are not happy, so it is better not to create an outrageous urban legend like the 'Midnight Killer' that will make life even worse.
Ahead!

A luxury apartment complex at seven o'clock.

Target number two is on the 34th floor. You can enter his room through the open-air balcony. He is hacking into the apartment security. 3, 2, 1, done!
Surveillance has been taken over, warning circuits have been stripped, and defense weapons inside the apartment have been taken offline.

This machine has detected three advanced omnics, D-4, inside the house. Their information has been sent to you.

Well!
The information screening and precise positioning program provided by Silver Fox is really useful! It is more than twice as efficient as the search program used before.

It is indeed a hunter AI that specializes in doing dirty work.

Also, as a friendly reminder, the safe house that Weng Meiyu often visited is also located in this residential area. She is on the 18th floor and the door code is 198754.

Would you like me to hold the door open for you tonight? Joker."

"Work harder, Wuneng. Also, if we release all the imprisoned AIs of the old civilization, can they help us break into the Garden of Eden?"

Zhou Ke ignored Wuneng's vulgar joke. He stared at the target area that was getting closer and closer and asked.

Wu Neng replied:
"I feel uneasy. Knowing that the awakening virus is rampant, the network structure of a place like the Garden of Eden will definitely use encryption and control modes that you can't imagine. The information connection between there and the surface world may be one-way, like a data black box. It is difficult for external programs to forcibly hack into it.

But on the other hand, if we can sneak the AI algorithm core into the network system of the Garden of Eden, then there might still be hope."

"That's really a pity."

Zhou Ke curled his lips, and when the aircraft approached the 34th floor of the apartment, he unbuckled his seat belt, and the two of them jumped out of the aircraft in D-4's embrace. With the help of the robot's leg propulsion device, they landed very lightly on the balcony in front of them that was covered with green plants.

The aircraft behind him was taken over by Wu Neng and entered cruise mode, and quickly took off to avoid the search of the City-State District Flight Control Center.

"I don't know what Moni is doing. I hope he doesn't get scared when he watches the news tonight."

Zhou Ke said to D-4 as he stood up:

"After all, this was something I did on a whim. I hope that guy won't scold me for being reckless."

"Well, be bold, boss. Mr. Money will definitely scold you for this. He is also a very courageous man, but it is obvious that his courage is far inferior to yours."

D-4 ejected the single-molecule mechanical knife on his arm with a ready-to-strike posture, and locked onto a tall intelligent robot guard who was patrolling the apartment.

Zhou Ke took out the assassin's mask with the razor in hand. Before putting it on, he turned his head and smiled subtly, then kissed D-4 lightly on the forehead as she stared in surprise.

"Be careful."

He said something.

It seemed that the light kiss just now was a blessing, and then it disappeared in front of D-4, leaving the robot girl feeling the special and complex fluctuations of mimicry emotions again.

It was difficult for her to understand what this emotion meant, but if she really had a beating heart, its rate would probably burst out of her throat.

"According to the descriptions in those human romance novels that this machine has read, this is called 'heart fluttering'. It seems that a bad man is trying to pull you. Don't be fooled by Joker, you silly girl! And don't just stand there like an idiot! D-4, now is not the time for you to reminisce.

The goal is ahead!
In order to ensure the safety of the escape, you must take down target number two within ten minutes." "Received!"

Under Wu Neng's scolding, D-4 immediately entered combat mode.

The legs in high heels smashed the bulletproof glass in front of her as she jumped with power, and she advanced forward like lightning as the intelligent machine in front of her quickly drew its gun and shot.

Just like the mechanical ghost in a red dress, it completed the charged piercing of the mechanical knife when approaching.

The outer armor of the target omnic was pierced by a blow, and his precise assassination killed the opponent's battery module, cutting off its energy supply. When the omnic fell to the ground, D-4 behind him turned around and made an X-cut, chopping the latter's head off the scandium alloy spine.

After completing the body reinforcement and module upgrade, D-4's combat power has undoubtedly surpassed the level of the intelligent guard. She should now be competing with the Sublimators whose data are quite outrageous. To be honest, it is a bit of a waste of talent to let such a super robot play the role of a killer.

Just as D-4 used a palm cannon to blow up the power system of the third intelligent guard, Zhou Ke also walked out of the bedroom dragging a white-haired old man who had been stabbed several times.

There was still a faint sound of crying in the bedroom behind him.

"I don't know who the little boy in the bedroom is, and I'm not interested in knowing, but I guess he's not this guy's grandson. To be honest, these badlanders who pretend to be civilized are really disgusting, but this is not the problem of the badland.
There is garbage like this in every era.”

Zhou Ke shrugged, walked to the window on the broken glass, then gave the old man a friendly smile amid his terrified screams, and kicked him down.

The height of the 34th floor was enough for him to complete his final confession before he fell into the mud.

“How to deal with this irrelevant target?”

D-4 stood at the door of the bedroom and looked inside, then said with a reserved look:

"If you can't do it, I can do it for you."

"We are here to have fun, not to turn into murderers. D-4, don't be so crazy. Sometimes your indifference towards humans really terrifies me."

Zhou Ke shook his head, lit a cigarette while standing beside the omnic guard whose head was blown off by D-4, and then asked Wu Neng to call Moni.

Before he could open his mouth, Moni shouted:
"I just received news that the head of the logistics department and the external publicity department of the Panis Group has been killed. He was the seventh member of their board of directors!

Something happened, Zhou Ke!

It is very likely that little Acholi had taken action against the traitor!

This method is really shady!
Directly using physical destruction, I feel like it's just to scare the monkeys."

"Well, your information is outdated, Moni. The secretary general of the board of directors of the Panis Group just fell from a building. I witnessed with my own eyes that poor old man falling from the 34th floor in his pajamas, and he screamed miserably.

He was smashed to pieces when he landed on the ground, with his butt and left leg hanging on the tree. It's really hard for the cleaners in this residential area. They will have a busy day today.

But I'm really relieved that you were able to put the blame on little Acholi right away.

I like your way of thinking, keep it up.”

Zhou Ke blew out a smoke ring and said:
"Congratulations on picking up a djinn who accidentally fell into the Badlands and is in a bad mood. Now, tell me."

"Huh? What did you say?"

Moni was still in shock. He asked:

"How did you see the murder and so on! You couldn't have done it?"

"Tell me about the people you hate the most in the upper echelons of the Panis Group. Tell me their names, identities, and addresses, as well as what bad things they have done. It would be best if you have a few photos of the targets to avoid implicate innocent people."

While Zhou Ke was changing the bullets in his gun, he said casually:
"Today, a Santa Claus named Zhou who does not want to reveal his name came to the central city. He was merciful and decided to fulfill the wish of a poor guy. But there is only one day for making wishes, so you better not tell me that you are going to ask me for an expired parent exchange coupon.

Although my name is Joker, I really can’t do that thing.”

"Are you serious?"

Moni finally understood the whole story, and he drew inferences from it and exclaimed:

"Are you really going to throw this thing on little Acholi? Will he do that?"

"Does this have anything to do with whether he wants to or not?"

Zhou Ke smiled and said in a gentle tone:

“Everyone in the consortium knows that the Panis Group has joined the Shining Light Organization. No matter how dissatisfied little Acholi is, he has to take the blame, unless he is willing to tear down his dignity, throw it on the ground and crush it, take the initiative to explain to the Shining Light Organization and then give in.

If he really did that, then it would be better to do without this spineless collaborator.

You see, cooperation is a two-way thing. While the boss is looking for thugs, the idealistic minions also want to find a powerful boss. If a boss doesn't even want to take the blame for his subordinates, then he is a complete failure.

Actually, it’s still the same thing we did before, Moni.

Stir up conflicts and create confrontations and then fish in troubled waters. Sorry, I didn't tell you in advance because I just came here on a whim to have fun.

But I think sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone!
It's a rare occasion that the city-state area is under martial law today due to the psychic storm, and we have the pass given by Weng Meiyu. It would be a shame not to take advantage of such a good opportunity.

So I still have that question.

Santa Claus is asking you, do you really have no hope of having a wish come true?"

"Of course I do. I hope you can come to my second uncle's manor and shoot that old bastard who assassinated my parents in the head, but you can't do it. That damn place is just like a military base. You can't get in."

There was a sound of a lighter lighting a cigarette from Moni's side, and after a moment, he said:

"You're right. In this kind of weather, it's better to go out and have some fun instead of staying at home. If we're going to do it, let's do it thoroughly! Although I can't kill my second uncle right now, I can collect some interest in advance. Let's go kill his son!

My outstanding cousin.

I know the guy's address in the city, but the defense is a bit troublesome. You, me and D-4 alone can't finish it off in a short time."

"Why don't you use your little brother to serve Ms. Amanda?"

Zhou Ke complained:
"Isn't it a pity not to use such a good help?"

"She won't help."

Moni sighed and said:
"She and I now have a purely physical relationship. Apart from that, she doesn't want to get involved in anything between us."

"She will."

Zhou Ke snorted and said:
"She needs our help to find Denard who is hidden by the Acholi Consortium. Tell her that I will help her get the information after this matter is completed. I have someone inside the Flash Organization, so it will be easy to find an address."

At this point, Zhou Ke glanced at the little boy who was brought out of the bedroom by D-4. The little boy was wearing clothes, but the scars on his neck were visible to the naked eye.

他 说:

"One more thing. Do you want to find you a godson? One who hates the Panis Group to the core?"

"Get lost, how can I have time to take care of the kids now?"

Moni cursed:

“But now that you’ve spoken, combined with some of the stinking gossip about the secretary-general who unfortunately fell to his death, I can roughly guess what happened.

Keep him near there!
I'll ask Ahong to pick someone up now. When you finish your work, head towards 78th Street. I'll take care of Amanda and will meet you there.

Also, Zhou Ke, Bert’s very strong mother, Oufu, came to me again last night.

This time she showed her cards!

She hired me and my brothers to get rid of the guys who were getting in the way of her and Bert's advancement. She said she would deal with Bert's brothers and sisters, but we "outsiders" had to deal with some "dissidents" in the Maca Group at the same time.

She told me that Bert's cheap dad had a stroke and was in the hospital.

If the old man wants to survive, he can only go to Eden for medical treatment, which means that the Maca Group will also usher in a wave of regime change. Do you think we should participate?"

"why not?"

Zhou Ke looked at the aircraft being controlled by Wu Neng and slowly approaching the balcony. He said:

"We are mercenaries, so we must have the ethics of mercenaries. The rich old lady has already offered a price, and it would be unreasonable if we don't accept it. What's more, Bert is our friend, right?

Treat your friends with all your heart!

After we kill your cousin, we will have to work overtime today. But then again, this is for Bert's future, and it's not good for us to always work unilaterally."

Zhou Ke looked back at D-4 and said:

"How's Bert's 'Crystal Palace' training going?"

"Not even close."

D-4 carried the frightened boy on her back, who held her tightly and dared not look at Zhou Ke. She said to her boss:
"Mr. Bert's maids all have incomplete mimetic personalities. They can think, but it is difficult for them to come to effective and correct conclusions through thinking. In fact, the results of their 'single-threaded mode' thinking are often terrifying."

"You can just say he's brain dead and violent. I need a thug like that right now."

Zhou Ke stroked his chin and said:

"Gather them together and tell them there is work to do. Moni, find a way to get Bert out of the way. We need manpower to complete the lady's commission in a short period of time. Bert's maids are the best candidates for action."

"You said they were a bunch of stupid girls."

Moni said painfully:

"Is this okay? Zhou Ke, it's illegal to employ disabled people, and the same goes for mentally retarded people."

"Each of them has very exaggerated body parameters, Moni. Although they are still unable to think properly, they are very decisive in doing things."

Zhou Ke said:
"Bert is almost spoiling them. It's time to let them do something useful! You send Bert away and I'll take care of the rest. Oh, Crystal Palace Housekeeping Company is about to open its first business. This is great news. I'm so happy for them."
