Chapter 222 Flower of Evil

"But you brought us here just to let us visit the buildings and residents here?" Luo Feng asked.

Although he was amazed at the wisdom of Sage Green, he originally thought that he was just a scientist and not a qualified ruler.

But soon Luo Feng found himself on the first floor and Sage Green was on the fifth floor.

But even so, she had no interest in the uneven residential buildings.

"Of course not." Sage Green said without turning his head, "Human states can be roughly divided into two types, normal and abnormal.

That is orderly, normal, and in line with social ethics, while the abnormal is abnormal, rare, and bizarre.

Compared to the norm, the abnormal is obviously much more interesting. "

"So you are planning to take us to see the pervert?" Luo Feng asked.

"You can understand it this way. After all, those who use machines to replace parts of their limbs, or treat machines as family members, can indeed be called perverts." Sage Green said with a smile.

"The place I'm going to take you to is the underground world..."

Sage Green walked into the alley and put a black cloak on himself.

Pushing open a rusty iron door, there was a staircase leading to the depths of darkness.

Sage Green snapped his fingers, and the lights on both sides of the stairs immediately lit up one by one, dispelling the darkness.

The stairs were covered with green moss and it looked like no one had walked along this path for a long time.

"I reserved this passage at the time. It is rarely used and happens to lead underground without any obstructions."

"What's down there?" Luo Feng asked.

"There are a lot of rats down there, rats that don't like the light..." Sage Green said, then turned and walked into the narrow aisle, leading the way.

Luo Feng took Heidi's hand and went in.

The passage was narrow and damp, with water even seeping out of the walls. It felt like I was going to slip at any second.

The stone passage was about one meter wide and two meters high, not even allowing two people to pass side by side.

The footsteps of the three people echoed in the quiet and narrow passage, and they could even hear their own heartbeats. This feeling was a nightmare for people with claustrophobia.

Fortunately, the three people in the corridor are not ordinary people.

He walked along the corridor without changing his expression.

And Sage Green has begun to introduce them to the formation process of the underground world.

“Early on, during the second expansion of Sky City, I discovered something interesting.

In this city, which I have always regarded as a masterpiece, many things that should not exist have emerged.

Slave trading, arms trafficking, bullying and oppression…” Sage Green said calmly, “Then I acted secretly and cleaned up all these people.

But within two years, I found that these things appeared in my field of vision again, and their scale was larger than last time, involving more aspects.

At this time I knew that simply cleaning was useless.

No matter how many times they are cleaned up, they will grow again like bamboo shoots after rain.

This is the inferiority hidden deep in human nature.

I cannot eliminate this bad trait, even if I am the lord of the castle in the sky, because this bad trait is also a part of my personality.

Without it, people will lose their creativity and productivity.

Therefore, I have not used my personal name to oppress or exclude the development of others.

Instead, he forged another identity and sold weapons and munitions.

He became the biggest arms dealer at the time, and then I acted as a link to bring together all the evil in the city.

So my other identity became the king of the underworld. Only a few people knew this, but no one dared to speak it out.

Under my control, the scale of the underground world is developing in an orderly manner. When I feel that it has expanded too much, I will use my real power to carry out a cleansing.

When I feel that it is about to decline, I will take the initiative to relax some policies to leave more room for it to survive.

It's like a flower of evil, and I've been keeping it in my pot."

"..."

“And this passage is what I left specially for me to come and admire this flower of evil occasionally.

The people below handled it well, and no accidents occurred for three whole years.

So I haven't walked this road for a long time, and today this passage is opened specially for you." Sage Green looked back at Luo Feng and said.

"...Then I'm really sorry to trouble you." Luo Feng said with an awkward smile.

Sage Green smiled and said nothing more.

Soon the group reached the end of the passage, where there was a tattered wooden door with a small lock hanging on it.

Green took out a key, turned the door lock, and walked into a spacious cabin.

When everyone had walked out of the passage, Sage Green put the small lock back on.

Then he opened the door.

What comes into view is a pedestrian whose large body has been replaced with a mechanical one.

Including the legs, waist and hands, all reflect the unique luster of metal and have sharp edges.

The entire street seemed to be built in a place full of thick metal pipes, like a steel jungle.

The pipes are like trees that grow unrestrainedly, surrounding and supporting everything here.

Not far away, there seemed to be a furnace, emitting scorching light and unbearable high temperatures.

In the giant round furnace, a large amount of red-gold liquid was bubbling, becoming the brightest light source in the area.

This seems to be a street with various shops and stalls lined up on both sides of the street.

There are various rare weapons and devices on display that violate the ban.

Luo Feng even saw a rocket launcher on one of the stalls. It had a strong magical aura and looked like a thermal weapon that had been enchanted by alchemy.

With one shot, warriors below level four will vomit blood, and magicians without level five shields can only collect corpses.

There are also various kinds of magic stones, metal armored limbs, and even living people.

However, there were no red-light bars, because selling bodies in Sky City is a legal act, but one needs to obtain a license in advance.

After all, for a small number of people, some secret activities are the most important and happiest part of their lives.

"Even if they transform their bodies, they won't be able to achieve immortality." Luo Feng asked Sage Green in a low voice.

“Yes, it will shorten your life.

Those heavy metal elements will corrode and damage their bodies, and their average life expectancy is about ten years shorter than that of normal people."

"..."

"Then why do they want to transform themselves into that?" Luo Feng was speechless.

"Because power, no matter when, is always something that intoxicates people..."

Chapter 223 Meteor

“Power is intoxicating. Power that is strong enough will bring you many things you have never had before, such as money, power, and status.

Ultimately, all order is built on violence. Without sufficient violence, order becomes empty talk.

In our previous world, the state was the largest violent organization, and in Greenville, the gods were the strongest violence.

The same is true in the Sky City. The reason why I am admired and respected by thousands of people is not only because I am the creator of the Sky City, but also because I am the most knowledgeable and powerful person here.

In this world built by violence, sufficiently powerful forces can, to a certain extent, allow a person to live a better life.

Just like these rats trying to survive in the dark sewers." Sage Green stood in front of the door and told Luo Feng without any hesitation.

“They used the weapons from the Sky City to exchange for food, beautiful women, and strong slaves on the ground, opening up this underground market flowing with black blood.

Others will also place items obtained through various illegal or legal means in this market for trading.

There are some interesting little gadgets in there.”

Sage Green pointed to a store not far away and said, "See those chairs inside?"

Luo Feng nodded. It was a low bungalow built of wooden boards. There was a huge sign at the door with the two big words "Peak" written in crooked characters.

There were a few simple chairs in the bungalow, on which lay several men and women, their bodies wrapped in electrode stickers, twitching constantly on the chairs.

It feels like being subjected to severe electric shocks.

Many people even became incontinent before they could even hold on for a minute, and the scene was a mess.

“That’s an electronic simulation telepathy device that was abandoned by the research institute. It was originally a combat simulation device used for military assessments.

Because they were eliminated when more advanced instruments emerged.

Unexpectedly, some of the instruments ended up here and were modified by other mechanics, and all the training data inside were replaced with bio-electromagnetic signal shock waves.

These electromagnetic waves can inject all the electronic stimulation signals intercepted from other organisms into the user's body, allowing them to reach the peak instantly and feel extremely high.

The effect is as strong as you can see.

However, because its stimulation is so strong on the mind, it may be addictive.

Many users will become dependent on these things after trying them once, and gradually turn into a useless person who only knows how to have pleasure.

Similar effects to those produced from poppy husks.”

Sage Green exclaimed, "These little guys are simply geniuses. I am amazed by the creativity and productivity they have demonstrated in some peculiar places."

Luo Feng did not look at Sage Green, but just wanted to cover his face.

Because the main reason why she came here was to perfect the armor made for Heidi Liangshen.

As for the effect...it's similar in nature.

Needless to say, Heidi's hand holding Luo Feng's began to tighten, and she wrote with her fingers on the palm of Luo Feng's hand, "Master, I want this..."

"..."

This was just a small episode. The three of them strolled along the long trading market, and Sage Green acted as a tour guide, introducing everything here to Luo Feng and Heidi.

When Luo Feng saw children of several months old being placed in cages and sold on the street, he questioned Sage Green.

“Why would anyone sell a child?”

"I tacitly agreed to this," said Sage Green.

“The Sky City is a whole, but it is not a closed whole. From a genetic perspective, long-term reproduction at such a close distance can easily lead to genocide.

Therefore, genetic diversity needs to be replenished regularly. It so happens that many workers who work in construction areas for a long time will lose their fertility due to pollution or radiation.

So there was this trade.

Just like vegetables, fruits and melons.

You should have discovered that although there are some green areas in the entire Sky City, they are far from meeting the standards for large-scale plant planting.

Cities don't have enough land to grow cheap rice and wheat.

So apart from some fruits and vegetables provided by the cultivation base, almost all staple foods and vegetables have to be obtained from the outside world.”

"I'm trying to add an external device to the outskirts of the city and plant some quick-growing, high-yield magic seeds. This will solve the food problem for the 80,000 people in the Sky City.

However, due to the external device being too heavy, the core kinetic energy did not meet the standards, and so on.

It is estimated that this project will take several years to complete.”

Luo Feng nodded silently without saying anything more. He was a complete newbie in this area and couldn't get a word in at all.

He just looked around, searching for something interesting that could grab his attention.
