Warhammer Seal

Chapter 377 The Runaway

"I am a fugitive, I am sorry that I cannot tell you the specific identity before."

Runaways is a new term that Wen De just learned, representing those who escaped from the upper area to the lower area, although even doing the most humble job in the upper area is much more comfortable than the gang boss in the lower area.

But I have to say that although the social environment of the empire is like a pool of stagnant water, there is still a little connection between the upper and lower areas.

Some lower-level people can reach the upper level through their own efforts, and some upper-level people will also come to the lower level.

This is also the deception technique taught by Tzeentch to Wende. Half of a sentence is a lie, and half of it is not a lie, which is the most deceptive.

The first one to believe was Phil. He thought that Wende was not simple at the beginning, and then he believed it directly after hearing him say that he came from the upper class.

As for Ms. Kakamihara Nadeko, those who can sit at the top of the guild are not simple people, and she obviously felt that Wende was lying.

But smart people never expose other people's lies, but choose to make better use of such a lie.

"Indeed, I believe you are a runaway. At the same time, I'm sorry. I happen to have a lot of lists of runaways here. You know, some runaways always carry secrets with them. The employer needs them to shut up."

The meaning of these words is obvious, highlighting the hostile relationship between her and Wende, so that Wende has subconsciously sneaked a peek at the nearby pipelines, and if there is a problem, he will immediately run away.

However, Ms. Kakamihara Nadeko didn't stand up, and didn't change much in her expression. She took out a lighter and lit the cigarette in her mouth.

"But, you are handsome, I can pretend not to know your existence, but remember boy, you owe me a favor from today on."

It seems that there is still a turning point. As expected of the members of the guild, as long as they have the opportunity to bargain, they will never draw their guns to be hostile.

The meaning was obvious, and she didn't want to care about where Wende came from. Whether it was a stowaway in the agricultural world or a mercenary who got into a lawsuit, she had nothing to do with her.

She is willing to use her identity to help Wende lie, and the price is a favor.

Moreover, when doing business with guild members, there is no chance to bargain. Wen De could only suffer a dull loss, and nodded slightly to express his gratitude to Ms. Kagamihara Nadeko.

It's just that the little girl's eyes made Wende feel chills down his back. When he was fighting against chaos, the devil's eyes were not so scary.

The matter is done, and the bounty is obtained, so there is no need to think so much.

The life and death of gang life has allowed Phil to develop a lifestyle of entertainment. Gang members who may die at any time have no idea of ​​saving. They leave one silver coin as gang funds, and another silver coin Bounty as a gang member.

There is also a silver coin that is the capital of Phil and Wende Entertainment.

"Do you like big breasts or big butts? Do you have any special hobbies? I'm not sure."

Phil walked on a route to the entertainment area of ​​the guild area.

For the lower classes of the Hive Capital, the needs of humans are very small.

As Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory says, human beings must first meet the four basic needs of food, water, air, and sleep.

As a gang leader, he can eat enough, drink water, breathe and sleep late, so the next desire appeared naturally.

Sex.

The guild area is a gold-selling cave of average quality, but the per capita consumption of more than 20 copper coins is not a place that people in the lower areas can expect.

Phil took Wende in like an old customer. The various smells of smoke and neon lights inside just gave Wende a headache.

The ear-piercing music, coupled with the writhing figures beside the steel pipe, made Wende obviously feel uncomfortable.

Phil blended in the crowd like a fish in water, and he could tell at a glance that Wende was not a frequent visitor to such romantic places.

Pointing at the old bustard, the latter immediately nodded understandingly.

The new guest should not engage in so many fancy things, and arranged for a girl with a pure appearance and play style to take Wendla into a room next to her.

Finally, although the room was chaotic and dirty, it was at least a quiet place, which brought Wende back from the noisy environment.

"Have you given money?"

Looking at the unknown girl, after she nodded, Wende also issued an order to evict the guest.

"I don't need service. I drink a little too much. I have a headache. You can go out."

Although it is a kind of service industry, it is quite a pity not to have a relationship with such a handsome guy.

"Strange, I thought human beings would succumb to instinct."

After no one around, Ai can finally speak, and the entire empire is targeting AI, so she can only speak a few words when she is alone with Wende.

"If it was in normal times, I would definitely have followed. Anyway, I have been paid, but I can't do it today. I don't know what to do."

"Yeah, being caught by a high-level guild, even if you eat, you will lose your appetite. What's the matter, do you have any plans? I'm not good at dealing with irrational things like interpersonal relationships."

"Ai, can you scan the entire guild area, I need the data here."

"No, there are anti-scanning methods here, not AI, nor computers, but human brains filled with tubes."

In the empire, although the existence of AI is completely banned, in order to meet the computing needs, many planets are producing something called wetware.

In short, it is to extract the brain of a living person, and use electronic signals and brain thinking to act as a computer.

This thing, how should I put it, although it is not as powerful as AI, it can still meet a lot of information needs, one of which is scanning and anti-scanning.

"Don't be discouraged, Wende, it's just a human brain full of tubes. It's nothing to mention in front of AI. I started to scan the entire guild area. It will take half an hour, but be careful, once the scan is completed, it will be Detected, rest assured, I can hide our information."

Wen De nodded, agreeing with Ai's idea, if he was controlled by the guild and he didn't have the slightest ability to resist, it would be really difficult to sleep and eat.

Scanning in progress.
The scan is complete.

Just at this time, Phil also knocked on the door and asked Wende if he was done. This young man is really amazing, and he would do it for more than half an hour.

There was no extra words, anyway, the money had already been played, and the two left the guild area immediately. Just as the front foot reached the lower level of the hive capital, sirens sounded one after another from above their heads.

　Because of the omnic rebellion, AI with thinking ability and independent decision-making is the most sensitive red line for the empire.

　　Entire empires ranging from war machines to computer servo skulls contain wetware.

　　Wetware refers to a computer that relies on a biological nervous system of flesh and blood, or a living computer.

　　Even the tracking missiles of the Imperial fighter jets have a living human brain stuffed inside them for tracking and navigation tasks.
