we are just monsters

Chapter 152
"Actually, with Lilith's ability, it's very likely that she is resurrecting her soul from a dead body. You sit up trembling, and die again before you get out of bed. It's a scam." Gu Cheng thought for a while and said.

Xia Xiaoman burst out laughing. Thinking about it carefully, it was really possible. Lilith chanted a spell, revived her soul for a few seconds to trick her body, and then it was over.

"Old ghost, you are slandering!" Lilith shouted outside.

Gu Cheng said, "Didn't you leave?"

Lilith said confidently: "Let me see if you will speak ill of me, sure enough! You secretly slandered me behind my back!"

"This is not slander, it's just a fact. Come in, I won't hit you."

"Am I afraid you won't succeed?"

Lilith stepped in with one foot, then backed out, stepped in again, and said to Xia Xiaoman, "Look, I'm not afraid of him, and you don't need to be afraid of him either."

"Oh, the more you live, the more childish you become."

Gu Cheng went over to pick up the black cat, hugged it and rubbed it in his arms, "Meow."

Lilith rolled her eyes.

"What the hell is Black Mountain doing?"

"He is studying hard. Only by gaining knowledge can he exploit human beings better, and finally become the richest man in Baicheng.

Lilith felt that Gu Cheng would not take it seriously if she told the truth, and even laughed out loud, but she still did not betray Montenegro.

"Learning the one-dimensional equation to exploit human beings?" Gu Cheng rubbed her cat's head and said.

"Just wait, sooner or later, Montenegro will surprise you!"

Lilith waved his hand away with her paws, Xia Xiaoman stared at the two with a blank expression.

"Lilith, he is taking advantage of you."

"You are all old women."

Gu Cheng threw Lilith aside and said.

"You are! You are!" Lilith called.

She retorted twice, then turned her head to look at Xia Xiaoman, "Say it too."

"You are the one." Xia Xiaoman cooperated, "Little Gu Cheng, you can't say that about us."

"Gu Cheng is small... small..."

Lilith couldn't continue speaking halfway through, so she simply pretended nothing happened, jumped to the other table, and sniffed the tea Gu Cheng poured.

"Stain my glass and you're dead."

"Stinger. Come on, let's ignore him and let him stink in this room."

Lilith turned around and took Xia Xiaoman out, and she didn't forget to hook the door with her paw when she was done.

After getting away from Gu Cheng, she whispered: "Do you want to try it secretly? It will definitely not be like a fake corpse, I promise."

"No, I'll just do it."

"Isn't it good to live again?" Lilith felt that she was afraid of Gu Cheng, "Don't worry, he will beat me at most, and nothing will happen."

"It doesn't matter if you come to this world or not, it's a surprise to meet you." Xia Xiaoman said softly.

Lilith looked at her for a while, then nodded and did not make another sound.

Going to the Heishan house, Chen Hua was playing games on the computer in Heishan.

The increasingly abundant problems in Montenegro made Chen Hua feel the pressure, and he was wondering why the phone could communicate instantly across such a distance.

"Sound transmission has speed. Why did the call get through in an instant? What is the principle?"

Montenegro touched the horns on his head, puzzled.

"The principle is... the phone is very fast." Chen Hua also couldn't explain it clearly, he was a vampire who knew a hammer.

"amazing."

"Yeah, I feel amazing too."

"Haven't you ever thought about how humans do it?" Montenegro asked.

A question mark popped up in Chen Hua's head, "Why should I know how they did it?"

"It's amazing."

Hei Shan clicked on his phone, "How is the speed of light measured?"

"...You should ask Lao Gu this question, not me. I only know how to play games."

"The old ghost knows a lot." Hei Shan looked serious.

"There are quite a lot. He has obtained some other certificates, but it was a long time ago. It was easy to disguise his identity at that time, but it is not feasible now." Chen Hua said casually.

Gu Cheng not only lived a long time, but also has a spirit of learning. He used to be as interested in these things invented by human beings as Montenegro, and studied and pondered them. Chen Hua has never understood them.

"Can your magic speak to people from such a distance?" Black Mountain turned to ask Lilith.

"No." Lilith said expressionlessly.

"Humans' knowledge is still powerful."

Montenegro lowered his head and flicked across the screen of his mobile phone, becoming more and more in awe of the word science. How did they allow people thousands of miles apart to receive news and even communicate in an instant?

"This problem needs to be understood." Missiles are remote-controlled, and this technology must be mastered.

Learning really costs money.

Hei Shan calculated the electricity bill. He didn't have a refrigerator in his house, but it was higher than Chen Hua and Gu Cheng's electricity bill.

Thinking of the magical mobile phone and the network that connects the world, he is full of ambitions.

There is always something to learn.

Chen Hua has experienced the changes of the world bit by bit since a hundred years ago. It seems that everything has developed rapidly. He has never thought about how the phone can transmit the sound in an instant, nor how the network transmits the signal. Converted into text, pictures and videos, all of this is as natural as breathing.

He doesn't have to think about why, but Montenegro is different. When he sees these things at first, he always wants to find out and figure out why. He talks on his mobile phone here, and as soon as he lets go, people in another city will hear it. For a long time For the old monsters who didn't come out, it was too dreamy.

What kind of force dominates all this?
Heishan touched his mobile phone like a beloved woman, the tenderness in his eyes made Lilith and Xia Xiaoman frown.

"He... has he always been like this?" Xia Xiaoman asked.

"It wasn't like this before." Lilith whispered.

Montenegro touched his pocket, wanting to buy another cheap mobile phone and take it apart to have a look, hesitating and struggling.

If he had this thing earlier, he wouldn't have to hide in the mountains for so long, he would just run away with Lilith and Niu Xi, one on this mountain and the other on that mountain, and just communicate with each other with their mobile phones.

"Lilith, I feel that humans are witches, they know so much magic." Montenegro turned his head and said.

"Then what am I?" Lilith froze for a moment.

"You're a cat."

Montenegro seemed to find it very interesting, hahaha laughed a few times.

Lilith didn't smile, she turned her head to look at Xia Xiaoman, of course what Heishan said was nonsense, but she just had an inexplicable feeling for a moment, which disappeared in a flash.

"No matter so much, Black Mountain, can you still develop the Metaverse?" Chen Hua said.

"What is the metaverse?"

"It's a game helmet... I'll download a few novels for you to read, don't think about the speed of light and sound every day, you're free."

"Oh."

Hei Shan didn't refuse, he had to find a way to find out if the old ghost read novels before making a decision.

Lilith was lying on the corner of the table and meditating. The seemingly miraculous magic of witches seemed to be really inferior to technology.

So what, she is still a great witch.
