However, just as he was about to speak, he stopped involuntarily.
wrong……
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes and looked at the "Texas" in front of him.
To be more precise, it was the eyes that looked into Texas.
Cold, mechanical, and ruthless, all he sees is a rigid adherence to rules.
This doesn't feel like Texas...it feels more like the real "Thumb."
Has it been covered by the personality... It seems that the real person has not returned yet.
Lin Yi thought about this in his heart, but he didn't worry too much. He had already thought about this situation a long time ago and had already prepared corresponding countermeasures.
"Awake, Texas?"
So, Lin Yi asked casually. Texas Thumb raised his head, looked at Lin Yi with a wary look, and whispered:
"Who are you? Why am I here..."
Texas said this, preparing to raise the barrel of his gun. Lin Yi saw this and nodded in understanding.
It was pretty much what he'd imagined. The thumb-like persona before him had no memory of this world. It looked like it had been summoned directly from the original possibilities. A bit like the dough-like summoned persona?
Lin Yi thought this in his heart, then frowned and said slowly:
"Does your class consciousness allow you to speak like this?"
Texas was stunned for a moment, and then Lin Yi raised his hand, and the pioneer walked in from the door.
The thumb emphasized class consciousness, a manifestation of absolute hierarchy. Those of lower rank who rashly disrespected their superiors would have their tongues cut off, or worse. Thus, the method for handling the current situation had already become apparent.
"……What's the meaning?"
Texas still spoke cautiously, but there seemed to be a hint of hesitation in his words. Seeing this, Lin Yi asked the pioneer to take out the certificate, and he slowly said:
"The one standing before you now is the Ruler, a noble being within this possibility, known as the Leader. The one beside me is the Pioneer, also a noble being, known as the Leader."
"Speaking in this way, the punishment in the thumb... do you understand?"
After hearing this, Texas almost subconsciously glanced at the document. Then, relying on her memory, she quickly confirmed its authenticity. Her pupils shrank slightly, and her body seemed to stiffen at that moment.
In just a moment, Texas put down his gun, lowered his head, and said in a calm and matter-of-fact tone:
"Your identity and that of your companions is beyond doubt—I will cut out my tongue as a token of my penance for my previous disrespect..."
Texas said, almost without hesitation, sticking out his tongue, about to slash the bayonet of the gun across the tip of his tongue. But Lin Yi just frowned and said calmly:
"stop."
Texas was stunned.
"I ordered you to stop cutting off the tongue. It still has a use. What, you're going to disobey orders?"
Texas immediately lowered his gun, lowered his head, and remained silent.
The status of the leader is higher among the thumbs than the big boss of the thumbs.
"That's right..."
Lin Yi slowly closed his eyes and tapped the tabletop with his fingers, as if waiting for something. Texas, now overshadowed by his thumb personality, didn't dare ask any more questions. He simply stood aside with his head bowed, silent.
"Let me ask you this," Lin Yi then opened his eyes, paused his tapping on the table, and spoke steadily, "Are you interested in becoming the boss of Thumb?"
Texas' pupils shrank, and he didn't say anything. He just lowered his head and said in a serious tone:
"My abilities are limited, so I dare not and cannot speak rashly. I'm sorry to trouble you, Lord Leader."
"I respect the boss, I wouldn't dare do such a thing..."
"But maybe you can. In this world of possibilities, become the boss of the new Thumb."
Lin Yi reached up to the sky, figuring that Texas would be back soon, and so he casually said,
"This is a newly established city. If you're determined to do so, I can make you a truly powerful boss... But that's a story for another time."
Texas was stunned for a moment, then felt a strong suction. The next moment, her eyes dimmed again. Lin Yi watched this scene patiently, and just before Texas' eyes completely dimmed, she slowly spoke:
"Don't forget what I said today. I'm still looking forward to you..."
The next moment, Texas's eyes dimmed. Lin Yi let the pioneer leave. Half a minute later, he saw the light in Texas's eyes light up again, and the personality card on her waist was also released. She stumbled back half a step, and then met Lin Yi's half-smile.
"Well...what do you think?"

Chapter 27:26 The Arrival of the First Refugees
"How do I feel..."
Texas shook his head, feeling an indescribable emotion in his heart.
Just now, she successfully obtained the memory of her personality card.
At the same time, she also saw the real thumb...
Extreme power, extreme class. Texas couldn't help but be stunned when thinking about the existence of the thumb.
This is simply the most extreme form of the Mafia... Texas couldn't help but think so in his heart.
Unfortunately, she hadn't been able to see much of the city's customs, and Texas's curiosity remained unsatisfied. She looked up, seemingly trying to recall the scenery she had just seen.
"If that's the thumb... perhaps, I do have the potential to become one of them..."
Texas whispered softly.
The possible self of Thumb seems to have a mortal enemy with the Scavenger. Ever since joining Thumb, the possible Texas has been constantly fighting the Scavenger. It seems that the hatred was forged because his entire family died in the "Back Alley Night"...
It surprisingly has some similarities with my own real experience.
Texas couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
She put away her personality card. For some reason, she had an instinctive feeling. If she wanted to, she could pull another possible version of herself into this body at any time, allowing her to temporarily cover her own personality and carry out her activities...
She clenched her fists and then let out a long breath.
"I can't really put it into words how I feel...but it's okay."
"Do you still want to continue exploring the city?"
"of course."
Texas smiled, stood up, and spoke firmly to Lin Yi. For a moment, facing Texas's perseverance, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Forget it, let her be.
"Well, do your best. I'll need you again soon, and when that time comes... I just hope you won't refuse."
Lin Yi said, smiling at Texas. Texas nodded solemnly.
"Then I should leave... There are still many things in the city that need my attention."
After saying all this, Lin Yi slowly stood up. Texas was stunned at first, then said with a hint of reluctance:
"So soon...are you leaving again?"
“There’s always something to do.”
Lin Yi shook his head and said with a smile.
Texas pursed his lips and couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.
If I want to get to know the city better... Lin Yi is the hurdle I must pass.
However, until now, Texas still feels that Lin Yi still excludes her from many things.
When will the distance between her and Lin Yi be closer...
Such thoughts flashed through Texas' mind.
She wanted to know more, get in touch with more, get closer to that core area, and have the ability to understand more.
"If you have something else to do next time, can you call me?"
Finally, Texas raised his head and said this to Lin Yi. Lin Yi lowered his head and saw the desire in Texas' eyes.
He was silent.
"...We'll talk about it next time. There will always be things that require your help... If you want many things to pass through your hands, you will need to acquire more abilities and take on greater responsibilities... You will also be tied to this city."
Lin Yi spoke vaguely, while Texas calmly shook his head.
"I do not care."
"...Then next time, I will come to you."
Lin Yi sighed and said this to Texas. Then, he finally stopped lingering and turned to leave the room.
And at that moment, something seemed to have ignited in Texas' eyes.
has hope?
Yes, there is hope.
Texas let out a long breath and sat down on the chair, her eyes piercing as she stared into the distance.
Now that there is this hope... then next, Texas is ready to do its best to know more.
..............................
After returning to his cabin, Lin Yi became busy again.
Laurentina sent some lumber, and Lin Yi also slightly urged the team to make progress. Laurentina's communications equipment would probably take another five or six days to fully repair. It was so completely damaged, it would be practically the same as rebuilding it from scratch.
Lin Yi can be said to be very concerned about Laurentina's affairs.
After all, asking Lin Yi to take care of all the industrial lines in the early development of the mobile city by himself...that is really too much to ask.
As for the energy issue, Lin Yi no longer used the Pioneer as a generator. After treating Laurentina, he took out a large amount of liquid Originium from her body.
After all, this amount of Originium was enough to infect an entire city. According to Laurentina, even if all the equipment and industrial infrastructure she promised were built, these Originium should be enough to last for half a month.
With these source stones, Lin Yi’s energy can be said to be sufficient for the time being.
Although he was somewhat envious of Lobotomy's singularity technology... it was ultimately out of reach, and he still had to rely on Shuijing's mood. Once he had Lobotomy's singularity technology, Lin Yi would basically have no shortage of energy.
Lin Yi urged Laurentina three times a day while keeping the city moving forward.
Just like that, after about two days, the city was gradually approaching the outskirts of Kazdel, and Lin Yi didn't dare to move forward.
If you encounter a battle between two kings, you will die suddenly.
However, Lin Yi was aware that even just in the periphery, there were already quite a few Sarkaz refugees... In the present, Kazdel was filled with refugees.
And what Lin Yi wants are these refugees.
The remains of the back alley had been cleaned up by Lin Yi and named the new "Alley No. 1." As for Don Quixote in the basement, Lin Yi simply ignored him.
There's no way to escape, I'll wake up sooner or later; but since I won't wake up now, I might as well just ignore it for now.
Before Don Quixote wakes up, what Lin Yi needs to do is to make sure he has the capital to negotiate with Don Quixote as soon as possible... After thinking about it for the past few days, Lin Yi has also come up with a preliminary plan.
He had already planned to establish some contact with Casimir. After a while, when the city had developed a little, he would send pioneers there.
Just as Lin Yi was daydreaming, a dramatic change in reality finally woke him up from the isolation of the city. He suddenly walked out of the cabin and looked out into the distance at the city.
There, as the will of the city, he could already see a group of Sarkaz walking across the city's land...
