NIKKE, the end of the world is coming, but the system is a hundred years late

This is the Ark.

After decades of development, the Ark is now very different from what it used to be.

The elevator took an hour to arrive.

When entering the Ark, everyone underwent detailed testing to prevent Letcher and Nikki, who was infected by the Letcher virus, from sneaking in. It is the Ark's most important and most strictly inspected line of defense.

Even Mo Changge was not immune.

After completing the test and finding no abnormalities, Mo Changge breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems his guess was correct.

The Ark couldn't detect his systems.

The huge gates opened.

"You three have passed the test, welcome home."

The system sound rang overhead.

Behind Mo Changge, Labi and Anis walked out together.

Mo Changge said "thank you" to Lapi.

Thank her for helping me hide the matter of Marianne.

Once Ark learns of this news, it will definitely take action.

After all, this concerns the future of mankind. Once the research and analysis is successful, it will not only allow Nikki to have the means to fight against erosion, but it will also be possible to use it to study the Letcher virus and find a way to target it.

As for Marian, she was bound to become an important research material for the Ark. It was very likely that she was taken to the laboratory for dissection as soon as she returned to the Ark.

So, this time Mo Changge did not let Marian come back with him.

Besides, he couldn't be sure whether the Pamish virus would be detected by the Ark.

The same goes for the roses, they are all in abandoned strongholds on the ground.

Marian and Qianghua are very strong, and there are a large number of Letchers who have been infected by the Pamish virus. Mo Changge is not worried about them.

Marian's little head couldn't understand Mo Changge's departure.

Fortunately, Marian was sensible and obedient. After Mo Changge's patient explanation, she seemed to know that she could not go and did not continue to follow Mo Changge.

But that eager expression, which was indeed a bit pitiful, and the tearful look in his eyes almost made Mo Changge change his mind.

Although Mo Changge did not have a daughter, he suddenly had the illusion that he was raising a daughter.

Maybe this is what it feels like to be an old father?

Suddenly, Mo Changge had a strange idea.

I just don’t know if Nikki can have a baby.

His eyes couldn't help but look at Rabi beside him.

Rabi seemed to realize something, turned his head and made a puzzled expression as if to say "Is there something wrong?"

Mo Changge was caught in the act, he coughed lightly and waved his hand.

This is still a bit too advanced.

Labi naturally didn't know what Mo Changge was thinking, but he looked at Mo Changge as if he was looking at some rare creature.

"This is the first time I've seen a commander like you."

In the eyes of humans, Nikki is a weapon and a tool to fight against Letcher.

No commander had ever treated Nikki as a human being.

Not to mention taking such a big risk for Nikki.

If the Ark discovers this concealed matter, they will likely face severe punishment and even go to military court.

“I have seen it.”

Mo Changge walked towards the exit, or rather, the entrance of the Ark.

Lapi looked at Mo Changge's back, and the strange feeling in his heart became even stronger.

He is different from other commanders.

Chapter 19 Class

The moment I walked out of the door, the bright sunshine poured down.

Mo Changge covered his eyes with his hands and looked up at the sky.

The blue sky is as clear as a mirror, with a dazzling sun hanging in the sky, emitting warm sunshine.

The white clouds, as light as catkins, float leisurely in the wind.

The breeze blows the green leaves of the trees on both sides, and the swaying branches sway slightly, making a rustling sound. The colorful flowers bloom enthusiastically, giving a sense of vitality.

So true.

If Mo Changge hadn't known about it in advance, he might not have noticed it.

Lean on the railing and look into the distance.

It is a prosperous city with tall buildings and green trees on both sides of the road.

There are heavy traffic on the roads and crowds of people on the streets.

The noisy sounds can be heard from far away.

You can even faintly hear the shopping mall’s advertising slogans for price cuts and big sales.

This made Mo Changge remember what was on the ground.

The bustling metropolis forms a sharp contrast with the ruins and desolate scene of the city on the ground.

It is almost the same as human society before Letcher's invasion.

As soon as Mo Changge and his group entered, they felt the gazes coming from all directions, and the sound of whispers could be heard.

Among them are ordinary citizens and Nikki.

"Are they the ones who defeated the Tyrant-class Letcher?"

"It's too awesome."

"That's too possible. We haven't killed a Tyrant class in a few years. Besides, the last advance team was wiped out. Are there only a few of them?"

"Ah, the advance troops, aren't they the elite troops of the Pure Land?"

"This commander is so handsome."

“Isn’t this the focus…”

"It's absolutely true. The news came from the combat command center. They are still in a meeting."

Everyone was curious about what the Nikki troops that defeated the blacksmith were like. That was a huge hot news in the Ark and had spread a few days ago.

But when he saw Mo Changge and his companions, he was still surprised.

“We seem to be famous.”

Anis rested her hands on her neck, glanced at the onlookers in the distance with different expressions, then turned around and joked with Mo Changge and the others.

"Hey, hero, you seem to be very popular. So many girls are looking at you. Hehe, why don't you go up and chat with them?"

Mo Changge ignored Anis's teasing and looked at the Ark carefully. It was more technological than he had imagined.

But think about it, after all, more than a hundred years have passed.

At this time, he discovered that just to the right in front of him there was a large high-end residential area, commercial street, and even a golf course and amusement park. It was much more luxurious than where they were, just like two clearly separated rivers.

But the strange thing was that the place was very deserted and there was not a single person on the street.

"What is that place?"

"Where?" Anis followed Mo Changge's gaze and suddenly realized, "Oh, you mean there, that's the Royal Avenue."

"Royal Avenue?"

"Hmm. Oh, there are times when I don't recognize you, young master. I thought you lived there," Anis joked in a surprised tone, and stretched out two tender fingers, saying with a smile, "I was thinking of charging you a consulting fee."

Mo Changge: "..."

I'm not a sucker.

Anis stopped teasing Mo Changge and started introducing himself to Mo Changge.

"From the outside, doesn't that place look a bit exaggeratedly luxurious compared to the city?"

"Yeah, but there doesn't seem to be anyone there?"

"That's right. Because, that place is where the nobles live."

"noble?"

Mo Changge was stunned.

It's a bit strange to hear this word.

The word "aristocracy" rarely appears after the advent of modern civilization.

"Hey, it seems that our young master is really out of touch with the world," Anis said, pretending to be an old scholar and coughing twice. "Before explaining the nobility, let me first let you know the citizen level of the Ark."

From Anis's words, we learned that all residents living in the Ark will be implanted with something called an identification chip.

The implant locations vary, some are in the brain, some are in the arms, ears, etc., but this is not the point.

Only with a chip implanted will one be recognized as a citizen by the Ark and have the right to use the Ark's various infrastructures.

For those who don't have the chip, it would be difficult to use the infrastructure, let alone enter the Ark.

Microchipping is free of charge.

However, due to human nature of comparison, people make fuss about chips, such as differences in raw materials and design.

The most expensive ones can even cost billions of credit points.

"Billions?"

Mo Changge was stunned for a moment.

How come the data suddenly expanded?

It made Mo Changge uncomfortable.

Even in a game, billions is a huge amount of money.

"Yes," Anis nodded and said mysteriously, "Do you know what interesting things happened next?"

"what's up?"

"Based on the value of the chip, different classes began to be divided within the Ark. Then, 'commoners' and 'nobles' appeared."

Those who use expensive identification chips are aristocrats, and those who use free or low-priced chips are commoners.

Generally speaking, those who have money are aristocrats, and those who have no money are commoners.

"What's even more outrageous is the chain reaction brought about by the chip. Gradually, the nobles can enjoy many preferential treatments, while the treatment of common people has been declining year by year. Common people have made way for the nobles."

Anis spread her hands.

"Of course, this incident has also caused widespread dissatisfaction among the people, and the central government has also advised civilians not to encourage such bad behavior. But..."

Mo Changge said: "Once the privileged class is formed, it will be very difficult to break it."

The privileged class exists in every era, whether in ancient times or in modern times.

Even in today's society, which says that everyone is equal, how can we achieve equality for everyone?

The resources at hand are different.

Especially some capitalists who claim to be inheriting the family's responsibility.

When talking, he seems righteous and upright, but when eating, he sucks the marrow out of the bones and his mouth is full of grease.

"That's right, the answer is correct, but there is no reward." Anis winked at Mo Changge, "As you said, who would be a pushover if they have the ability to be defined as a noble?"
