Life Dungeon Game

As He Ao stepped out onto the street, his hand trembled, and he almost fell to the ground.

The box is quite heavy, and Joey's weakened body can't quite lift it yet.

This should be an insulated cooling box, used to carry valuable items that need to be stored under frozen conditions.

Hypermemory grants 30 seconds of cost-free time each day. Since Joey's body has no abilities, Heo can only constantly turn Hypermemory on and off to extend the time he can fight.

Even so, in the last few minutes, he had exceeded the limit by a few seconds, and his soul had weakened somewhat.

So from this perspective, he still needs these corpse flowers quite a bit.

One use of the Corpse Flower is that it can restore souls.

This is tantamount to giving He Ao the opportunity to take drugs to prolong his life.

Heo carried his suitcase and walked for a while before finding a shopping mall. He stored the suitcase in a secure locker in the mall. The storage price was a bit high, three federal dollars an hour, but it was cheaper than taking a taxi.

After storing his suitcase, Heo ventured deep into the Aston district, returning to an old street in the dead of night.

He stood at the end of the street, looked up, and the inconspicuous neon sign in the street came into his view.

Inor Restaurant.

Then he looked away and turned to walk to the other side.

A television outside a small pub next to him was broadcasting some kind of political talk show.

······

"For the past two months, the protests against the mayor's keeping of exotic beasts have not only not stopped, but have intensified. Following the failure of the last impeachment, the city council has launched a second impeachment campaign against the mayor. Many netizens believe that this impeachment will succeed," the host said, glancing at the guest beside him, a silver-haired man with long hair tied in a ponytail.

"Professor Searle, do you think Mayor Vent will be the first mayor to be impeached and removed from office?"

"Although everyone is very enthusiastic, I may have to pour cold water on this: Mayor Vent will not be impeached and removed from office."

Searle smiled at the host, then paused, and continued under the host's surprised gaze, "You might think I'm a supporter of Mayor Vent, but in fact I'm his opponent. I hate him. But here, we have to mention some interesting laws."

Serel pulled out a thin book and showed it to the camera. A line of large, gold-embossed characters clearly appeared on the page: "The Dawn City Constitution." "This is the Dawn City Constitution, revised in 1965, and it's the constitution we're currently using. As you can see, Article 2 of the Constitution is entirely about the mayor. Article 2, Section 4 states..."

The screen displayed the text of Article 2, Paragraph 4 of the Constitution.

"The mayor of Dawn City could be impeached and convicted of crimes such as 'treason.' In other words, if Mayor Vent is successfully impeached, he will immediately face charges from prosecutors, becoming the first mayor in Dawn City's history to be convicted. If convicted, Mayor Vent could face at least one hundred years in prison."

At this point, Thurton paused, "Although I very much hope this can come true, it's impossible," Mayor Vent finished speaking.

These convictions can be avoided entirely by making reasonable use of the rules of this constitution.

He moved the Constitution book slightly, and another section of this page appeared on the screen: "According to Article 2, Paragraph 2 of the Constitution, the Mayor of Dawn City has the power to pardon any criminal in Dawn City."

Of course... while under impeachment, he cannot absolve himself, but if we make reasonable use of another constitutional provision, he could easily be acquitted.”

Ser continued turning the pages, and a new clause appeared on the screen: Article 25. "According to Article 25 of the Dawn City Constitution, if the mayor is dismissed, dies, or resigns, the deputy mayor shall become the mayor. In most cases, the deputy mayor is the mayor's running mate and is part of the mayor's interest group."

He closed the Dawn City Constitution in his hand. "Based on the above, we can roughly guess what Mayor Venter will do next. If impeachment is unavoidable, he will resign from the city council to avoid being convicted."

After his resignation, the current deputy mayor, Evenson, will take over as mayor and continue the term of office that Vent did not complete. At that time, Evenson will exercise his mayoral privileges and pardon all of Vent's crimes.

Therefore, Mayor Vent will not be impeached and removed from office, because he will likely have already resigned before being impeached.

······

He Ao turned his gaze away from the television, walked past the small bar, and headed towards the apartment building at the back of the street.

He went upstairs with practiced ease and stopped in front of a door in the corner.

A thin layer of dust had accumulated on the dark combination lock, seemingly indicating that no one had been here for a long time.

This is Roy's apartment.

He Ao placed his finger on the combination lock and entered the password.

click -

With a soft click, the combination lock opened.

As Ruo had predicted, neither Viana nor Naomi changed the room's password.

He Ao placed his hand on the doorknob and gently pushed open the door.

Chapter 151 Combat Suit (Please subscribe, add to your favorites, and vote with monthly tickets)

He Ao reached out and caught a long strand of silver hair that had fallen through the crack in the door.

One hour in the main world is roughly equivalent to one day in the instance world. This time, the main world interval for the quest was about two days.

In other words, 'Roy' has been dead for over a month in the instance world.

The room was very tidy, completely unlike the mess it was when He Ao was still there. He Ao wrapped the strands of hair in his hand around the doorknob and gently closed the door.

There was a thin layer of dust on the ground, but it wasn't very noticeable, and no obvious footprints were left when you walked by.

He Ao walked straight to the bathroom, the door of which was not closed.

He stood quietly at the doorway, watching the scene inside the bathroom.

The original washbasin has been transformed into a mechanical platform that shimmers with a faint glow. A short sword with a wooden hilt, sealed in a cool mechanical scabbard, and a small black wooden box are quietly placed on the platform.

He walked to the platform, gently opened the black wooden box, and a pistol covered with dark red patterns came into view.

Butcher's pistol.

Then he closed the box and picked up the short sword beside him.

Clang——

With a crisp sword cry, a cold silver light reflected in He Ao's eyes.

Strictly speaking, the sword has already landed in the sky plaza of the Nord Tower, and landing there is tantamount to falling into the FBI's pocket.

The FBI has a history of taking things in but never taking them out, especially when it comes to swords that are clearly treasures. Even if they want to return them, it takes three to five months until the owner files a lawsuit in court.

It's likely that Selena helped Viana get the sword back.

Selena had seen Reggie use this sword, and she had also seen Roy use it.

He closed the scabbard and placed the sword back on the platform.

The mechanical scabbard that Viana crafted for this sword was a little heavy.

This sword is extremely sharp, capable of cutting through iron like mud. Therefore, Viana must have designed some kind of mechanical structure to keep the sword in its scabbard, preventing excessive wear on the scabbard and extending its lifespan.

This is a top-notch sword, and it's not an extraordinary item, which means it has no side effects. Using it doesn't require meeting certain conditions or paying a price, unlike using the Butcher's Pistol.

This fine sword, along with its scabbard, was simply made by a newly opened blacksmith shop in Aston District, which Reggie had casually found. Although it cost him all his savings at the time, the sword was still worth that much money, and its value even far exceeded that.

The blacksmith's skills were undeniably excellent, but in a bustling metropolis like Dawn City, with all sorts of convenient industrial products to choose from, the blacksmith simply couldn't make a living. When Rijite passed by there again the following year, the blacksmith's shop had been transformed into a convenience store.

Rigit can't be called lucky, but he can't be called unlucky either. He can find a martial arts technique for body tempering that can directly reach the limits of ordinary people by just flipping through the library, and he can find a shop on the street to forge a peerless sword. For most people, having these two successes is already considered extremely lucky.

Aside from these two things, his life was not...

He was lucky, his father died early, and he had to start working hard to make a living at a young age. Just when his life was starting to improve a little by practicing martial arts, someone attacked him and broke his leg. His martial arts career was stuck at the very last step, and he could not make any progress.

That's life—a little bit of luck, accompanied by a lot of misfortune.

In a sense, Joey was the same; his peaceful and happy life for the first seventeen years was shattered in less than a month, plunging him into the deepest abyss.

However, even in the darkest abyss, there is one advantage.

He Ao placed his hand on the family photo under the metal platform, turning the photo upside down.

That means no matter which direction you go, things won't get worse.

One clockwise rotation, eight counterclockwise rotations.

"The security password has been reset. Please stand in the designated area and re-enter your iris information."

As the familiar mechanical female voice sounded, He Ao raised his head and looked in the mirror.

The mechanical password for this reset system can be changed, but He Ao did not change it.

This is the trace that Roy's father left in the world.

Viana also knew of the existence of this secret chamber; after Roy's father died, she placed the secret medicine of the 'spectators' and the 'mercenaries' in the chamber.

However, she probably didn't reset the system's mechanical password, otherwise she would have left the butcher's pistol and dagger in the secret room.

As He Ao re-entered his iris and palm print, the entire secret room slowly opened.

Everything in the secret room remained exactly as it was when I left.

He walked straight to the combat suit and took it off. Roy was too fat to fit into the suit, but Joey's figure was just right.

After this huge blow, Joey's body became much thinner, and he was no longer the chubby little boy that Heo had seen in the sky square. He exuded a sickly and frail aura.

The combat suit was still a bit too big and very heavy. He Ao had to use all his strength to tighten all the openings he could to make the suit barely fit.

The combat suit left by Roy's father in the secret room was much more expensive and heavier than the FBI-specific combat suit that Ender had worn before. It was generally used by wilderness hunters and city defense troops who were exploring or fighting in the wild.

However, the weight was still somewhat beyond He Ao's imagination. It seemed that Roy's father had bought the deluxe version. For a superhuman like him, it would naturally allow him to walk with ease, but He Ao only had a physical fitness level of 8, which meant that he could barely walk in it.

He Ao gave a wry smile, then pressed a button inside his left sleeve. Immediately, a sound of mechanical parts rubbing together came from inside. He Ao instantly felt his weight lighten considerably, and he swung his arm, moving even faster than before.

This is the standard emergency support combat system for this combat suit. It can use a portion of the slender 'skeleton' structure to support the combat suit for a short time, forming a low-end version of exoskeleton armor. However, after activating this support function, the wearer's flexibility will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, people wearing this combat suit only use this system in emergencies when they are seriously injured or missing limbs, so that they can barely regain some mobility.

The system does not last long; most combat suits last between 30 minutes and 1 hour.

He Ao connected the smart bracelet to the combat suit easily; there was no ID lock, so it seemed to be a hacked version.

The operating software for the combat suit began to install automatically on the wristband. After the software installation was complete, the wristband began to display the remaining battery power of the combat suit.

[Battery level 27%, emergency assistance system can be used for about 30 minutes.]

Okay, the battery is also bigger than a regular combat suit, no wonder it's so heavy.

He Ao raised his head and looked at the walls surrounding the secret room.

His gaze was drawn to a jet-black hooded cape that had been hidden by his combat uniform.
