I give the world destruction and new life

Chapter 649 Commemoration
On October 2057, 12, the weather was fine.

Tang Ji is walking on the streets of Night City with a bouquet of flowers. He wears a neon mask on his face. The face flashing on the mask is Tang Ji's own face, but with this extra layer of disguise, no one knows his identity. Yes, there are many people wearing this mask OCS Tangy in the market.

There is a nonsense saying that this kind of attire can help improve your survival rate in front of players, because there is a one in a thousand chance that players will turn around and run the moment they see you. This sentence even directly Written in the advertisement, it is even endorsed by authoritative statistical agencies.

However, considering that some of the founders and operation team of that statistical agency have already fled to Phoenix, and some have made a wrong choice to go to the Crystal Palace, and now they are buried underground, so its authority is also great. discount.

Night City is much more depressed than before. Apart from the smart taxis of Delaman Company, which are still operating normally, there are not many operating vehicles on the street.

On the one hand, shelters are being built both inside and outside the city, causing great panic to the citizens. On the other hand, businesses are closing down everywhere, and many people have lost their jobs, so fewer people travel.

But these unemployed people also have good news, that is, many of their landlords have already run away, and they can't take care of their own property in Night City, so they have finally realized their housing freedom.

The bad news is that besides the products of the gray field project, there are almost no other normal foods on the market.

When this kind of food enters the high-end food market in the name of health, high nutrition and low calorie, everyone, especially white-collar workers, will even pay more to buy this kind of food, but soon people find that its output is not at all. production of luxury goods.

And as the products and stores of the Gray Field Project poured into the market overwhelmingly, filling everyone's dining table, people discovered that the unpalatable stuff could make people lose their appetite, or make people depressed.

Tang Ji bought plastic electronic flowers this time. During this period of time, the nuclear war between the two sides had a considerable impact on the environment. In addition to the bad natural environment, there were also logistics, which were also greatly damaged. Night City Flowers are no longer available.

If there was no apocalyptic atmosphere before, then this is a very obvious signal.

Of course, if Tang Ji uses his own privileges, let alone flowers, even if he wants to drink the Wannian ice water from the North Pole today, he can drink it, but he doesn't want to.

He is going to commemorate Angelina, as an ordinary person, a husband. Moreover, Angelina has always preferred electronic flowers when she was alive. She thinks that flowers are just for viewing, and the fragrance and color of electronic flowers can always be retained. go down.

The memorial square built by Luther to flatter Tang Ji was indeed a hit. Since then Tang Ji saw Luther's bald head and found it much more pleasing to the eye than before. It can be said that Luther has been able to survive until now because of this.

When Tang Ji appeared in the memorial square, there was no one there. The memorial was for the living, and now the living don't know if they can live tomorrow, so no one came.

But it's better if no one comes, Tang Ji likes to be quiet and to be alone with Angelina.

"I really thought about destroying the world at the time." Tang Ji walked up to Angelina's sculpture, put the bouquet of electronic flowers there, and explained a little clumsily: "But I just thought about it, I was just angry, but now We're really going to do this, doesn't it sound a bit fantastic? Since you left, this world is like a nightmare, and every day becomes completely different."

"Remember the apartment we used to live in? No one lives there now. The Valentino gang built a shelter there. Who knows, how many people we know will survive by then." Tang Ji spoke softly, he hadn't talked to anyone like this for a long time,
Oh, talking to Angelina is not strictly talking to people, but even the most ignorant Primal Fury is staying in the Sea of ​​Consciousness honestly at this time, without a word of superfluous nonsense.

"Mikelsen said that after Apocalypse Day, more than 500 million people will survive in shelters around the world, and there will be some private small shelters. The scattered population in the space station will survive, but in the end, how many people will survive to The end of the apocalypse is still unknown." Tang Ji sat cross-legged in front of Angelina's sculpture, as if they used to sit together and chat with each other after work, "I still remember the first time I saw the mushroom cloud of a nuclear explosion, I was scared Stupid, standing there with a blank mind, I just hope you're okay."

"Later, I got used to it. Now the nuclear bombs in stock are almost not enough. Military Technology built a full 120 tactical nuclear bombs last month, and they have been used up this month." Tang Ji pulled the small bouquet with light on the electronic flower , talking nonchalantly: "Otherwise, I wouldn't even be able to buy flowers."

"Oh, by the way, your favorite flower shop is closed. I heard that some refugees went in to steal things. As a result, they smashed the glass and destroyed the temperature control system. All the flowers inside died." Tang Ji seemed Thinking of something, he complained: "The central prison is full of flowers, but those are the flowers raised by Mikkelsen. I always thought it was an exaggeration to say that his dogs were spies, but now I believe it. The grass he grows has the function of eavesdropping."

"Mikkelsen has always been thinking about Xiao Su, probably because he is young and easy to deceive, Wu Qianying is now keeping Surte by his side." Tang Ji continued: "Martin and the others are doing it in Arizona. I found a refuge, it was a bit far away, but it was safe, there were not many people there, and it is estimated that players would not go there to run wild."

"If you are still here, we can also take refuge in Martin's refuge. I have seen that their place is very large and can meet your requirements for a house with a small garden." Tang Ji has not said this for a long time Too much talk, today he wants to finish talking for the rest of his life.

"Many people in the city want to live in a shelter, but less than 20 people can finally live in it, which is almost a 35 to [-] ratio. If there are no such things, I guess the two of us are not eligible to live in a shelter. .” Tang Ji smiled self-deprecatingly.

As he really saw the whole world, he felt more and more how naive he was back then, for not giving Angelina a better environment.

If he hadn't been so stubborn, if he hadn't been so nosy, if he had a better temper, maybe he would have been promoted. And then died in a conflict with my family.

Tang Ji held back for a long time, and finally said: "I sent my son to the moon. If something unfortunate happens in the future, Amaravati will be the most likely place to continue to study Enron's disease."

"If I'm not here, I'm sure I'll go to hell. If you're in the sky, please help me watch him more." Tang Ji said one last sentence, then looked at Angelina's sculpture for a long time, turned and left.

Coincidentally, when Tang Ji went out, Mr. Edward also welcomed his visitors. John Fleming brought most of the Alliance and their families to Night City.

Most of the first-generation members of the League of Gentlemen are people over the age of 60. They don't have much desire to enter the shelter themselves, but they undoubtedly hope that their families can enter the shelter.

For John Fleming, Fleming, it is not difficult to arrange a place for those ordinary people in a certain shelter. It only needs to use some past human relations to solve the problem. The real difficulty is to let even the powerful alliance The organization of vitality, the whole enters some kind of sanctuary.

No one wants to give up their rights, especially for an elderly person like John Fleming who is living more and more energetically.

He couldn't find an official shelter willing to accept him, thinking that those large enough private shelters would be the best choice. It just so happened that the two largest private shelters known so far are in Night City .

According to the information received by John Fleming, the shelter built by the Valentino gang does not have any high-end combat power stationed there, and they do not have the hard power to resist the potential invasion of players. Coupled with Edward's relationship, it is entirely possible that he Entered the Valentino gang's safehouse as a hired security guard.

To this end, he brought in his own trump card, Avalon.

Although Avalon's ability cannot be used in the shelter, as an old politician who has worked in the government before, John Fleming is sure to persuade the other party to accept him.

"Mr. Scimitar? Can I call you that?" John Fleming sat across from Scimitar. Although both of them were real hooligans, they were dressed more formally than the other.

"Mr. Fleming, our time is very tight, why don't you gossip and get straight to the point." Machete loosened his tie, he was dressed so formally because the shelter in the suburbs was officially cutting the ribbon today, a large number of gang members, And family members are about to move in.

Compared with the shelter in the Heywood District, the shelter of the Valentino Gang in the suburbs of Night City is larger and better prepared. However, in order to stabilize the situation within the gang, they entered the shelter according to the proportion of high, middle and low personnel and family members. .

"Okay, I understand." John Fleming was not polite, he directly pulled over a map of California, and drew a few circles on it with a pen: "These are the official shelter locations in the California area, all You can see the public information, I can see it, and players can see it too, the question now is if players attack your shelter at a possible time in the future, how do you plan to deal with it?"

"Haha, I'll just lie down and deal with it." Machete looked at the time impatiently. When Edward called him, he agreed without hesitation, because he knew that the other party was in the shelter in Heywood District. Helped to speak.

To put it higher, the tens of thousands of people in this refuge will be able to survive in the future, all thanks to Edward's intervention, so the machete acquiesced in giving twenty vacancies to Edward's friends, and the other party came to more than 160 people.
This is a hard-to-find ticket to the shelter!Not Chinese cabbage!Machete felt that the other party was a little too ungrateful.

As for the player's threat, that is a problem that the whole world has not been able to solve. Machete felt that he could not solve it, so he could only hide and wait for one day in the future to get out of the shelter, only to find that the players had left quietly.

He also didn't think that the guy who was a mercenary middleman on the opposite side had this ability, otherwise he should have stood by Tang Ji's side long ago, didn't he?
"This is our information. We have 172 records of killing players, and all of them have corresponding video evidence." John Fleming took out a folder, which was one of his hole cards.

Machete frowned, this is a very attractive place, he must admit that those guys who can kill players are ruthless characters.

The Valentino gang did recruit a group of superhuman members in order to guard against players, but unfortunately these people's obedience is very poor, the higher the level, the worse it is, for street gangs like the Valentino gang In other words, superhumans at the LV1 stage can barely be used, and superhumans at the LV2 stage can only be used with caution. As for the superhumans at the LV stage, it is simply a disaster.

Scimitar has no doubt that his entire gang may not be as valuable as the other party alone. The other party will either become the player's target, or kill half of the gang's staff on a bad morning, and then eat the other half raw.

This is the image of superhumans in Machete's mind. The players are a little more unscrupulous and chaotic, but superhumans are not much better than them.

"This is our advantage. We are mercenaries. We respect the rules set by our employers. As you can see, each of our employments is positive, and Avalon has never killed any employer." John Fleming The pitch continued, and another card was played.

"Think about the future again, Mr. Scimitar. When we walk out of the shelter again, we are faced with ruins. Where is the future of the Valentino Gang?" John Fleming pointed emphatically at Night City A couple more shelters: "We could sign the contract out to five years after coming out of the shelter, when it all starts up again, maybe."

Scimitar is a little moved, after all, it's the end of the world, what do you think is more romantic than dreams?

"You want too much, we can't spare enough space for you." Machete said bargainingly: "50 people is almost my limit, you know, there are places for those friends who are dignitaries, but You're right, why should I care about them?"

"Sir, I brought them here, and I can't tell them that only 50 of you will survive, and the rest will have to find a place to die on your own. Those who did this to me will be scattered." John Fleming shook his head , he knew that it was time to follow his rhythm.
