Disaster Artist

Chapter 54
Bai Zhe is now convinced that Gamez had some form of contact with Kalehin when he hacked into his neural interface.

During the brief encounter, her brain lost part of its function and her cognition was distorted.

He thought of the mark on Moya. He might have something similar on his body, but it was invisible.It was triggered during Gamez's invasion, leading to a connection with the Black Tide.

The gaze of the Kuroshio Eye seemed to trigger an abnormal reflex mechanism in her brain, making her repent and shed tears, and allow Bai Zhe to issue instructions to her.

He wasn't sure about the reliability of this mechanism.Whether the directive is absolute or limited, permanent or temporary, is difficult to verify.

But as long as she can temporarily command Gamez, she can play a huge role.

"Gamez, you will be free soon. That is if you join our plan to defeat Victor Marano."

"I will obey your will."

Bai Zhe nodded, sent a message to Falcon and left the basement.

The image of Kalehin in his mind had undergone some changes.

--------

The second patient he visited was a stranger named Joshua.

A homeless man addicted to blueberries was shot in the chest when he rushed towards gun-wielding gang members during a protest, causing the situation to get out of hand.

If it hadn't been for this incident, Marano wouldn't have been in trouble so quickly.

The bullet passed through Joshua's right chest and opened a hole in his lung. It took more than 30 hours of rescue operations to save his life.

The doctor originally judged that his probability of survival was very low due to the heavy bleeding and extremely poor physical condition.Unexpectedly, this homeless man's vitality was extremely tenacious. Not only did he survive, but he also woke up after being in a coma for two days.

Bai Zhe brought a fruit basket to the patient, which contained fruit-flavored nutritional paste and canned luncheon meat. He was poor.

The visit and condolences were just incidental, and his main purpose was to verify one thing: whether Joshua was one of the providers of infatuation.

"Rust" gained its first crush point less than a day after Joshua was shot.

He asked several organizers, and they all said that they had no impression of this person before, and they were very surprised to see a stranger rushing up to him.

In other words, Joshua was most likely affected by external forces and participated in the protest temporarily.

After Bai Zhe revealed that he was a member of the band that will be disbanded next month, the patient was very excited and tried to sit up with one hand on the bed.The inferior prosthesis on his left hand was temporarily removed by doctors.

"Relax and pay attention to the wound. I just want to ask when you heard "Rust", what you thought and how you felt about this piece of music. Just tell me whatever you want."

When talking about "Rust", Joshua was a little incoherent because he wanted to say too much.

Bai Zhe listened patiently and captured the key information.

A special physical and mental state.Joshua was addicted to Lambert and had a nervous breakdown when he heard "Rust". He was in extremely poor health due to the poisoning and had not eaten for a day.

Extremely engaged when listening to music.The other party was completely immersed in the listening process, ignoring the surrounding noise and not noticing the presence of other people.

The resonance with the work was so strong that I even had hallucinations.The other person felt like he was rusting and dying, and saw the sun extinguished in the sky.

Regarding the hallucination, Joshua only mentioned it at first, but after Bai Zhe's questioning, he recalled and described it in detail.

Unsurprisingly, this person is indeed one of the contributors to the fascination level.

The deep resonance with "Rust" allowed him to see an approximate image of Sooko in his hallucinations.

Bai Zhe quietly released Rusty Flame from his right hand. The other party seemed to be affected and became even more excited, making no secret of his fanatical admiration for their band.Joshua has not become as abnormal as Gamez.

"What are your plans for the future?"

"I heard that Kite Street is organizing a security patrol, and the leader is Moya. I want to join and have a different way of life.

I'm not good at fighting, and I'm not smart, but I want to help.Everyone donated my medical expenses. "

"You want to follow Moya?"

"I really want to. It feels like my blood is on fire when I hear her drumming. I'm not afraid of anything, and I don't want to use Blue Amber anymore."

Joshua has headphones next to his bed, playing "Rust" on a loop.

Are fascination providers natural followers?Four other fans of "Rust" will also sign up to join Moya's patrol.

Bai Zhe thought again of the fan of "Gaze", whose identity is still unknown and cannot be contacted.Just let it happen.

He expressed support and encouragement to Joshua, who was determined to change his lifestyle, and slipped out of the clinic.After recruiting a few loyal men, the little man will probably grow even more.

Bai Zhe came to the repair shop and saw a shotgun, "Air Hammer" on the counter.

The old man in the store was wearing a cowboy hat and leather boots with spurs. It was Old Lyon who had not run away.He actually had a revolver in his belt.

Leon enthusiastically demonstrated to him how to load ammunition, and went to the open space behind the store to test-fire two rounds.

Bai Zhe tried it and found that the weight and feel were good. The effective range of more than 50 meters is not deceptive, but it will definitely be worse if the warhead is replaced by rusty slag.

I disassembled the gun and checked the parts, and found no problems.He paid readily.

Old Lyon did not leave immediately after receiving the payment. He attached great importance to after-sales service and took Bai Zhe to carefully give instructions on how to maintain the gun.

Use a specific type of oil and wipe it on time; how to communicate with the gun in daily life; how to leave a record on the gun after a victory. Only by adhering to these good habits can you develop the soul of the gun.

To be honest, Bai Zhe felt that this old man was more psychotic than Bei Bei.

After swearing to Old Lyon that he would give preferential treatment to his beloved gun, and sharing food and accommodation with him, the old man left with peace of mind.

"Rogge, what kind of terrifying person are you introducing?"

“These days, it’s normal for people to be a little crazy, and the most important thing is to live happily.

I just made a rough idea of ​​what you want.In the past two days, we have organized a residents' association and made equipment for Moya. "Have you found a mechanic who can make camouflage shells?" "

"The price is too high. If you blow it, look for it again. Your stuff is here, you can try it out."

Bai Zhe saw the rough-looking iron box on the table. The box was slightly larger than the palm of his hand and had two pressure bars connected to the outside.

"It can stuff two cartridge cases at a time, with sealing discs installed on the side. Press the left linkage to spray quick-drying glue to seal the cartridge, press the right air blast to speed up drying, and automatically fill the sealing discs when the linkage is raised."

"Amazing."

He picked up the box, inserted a shell casing into it, and pressed it down hard.The one on the left was okay, but the one on the right was very difficult for him to press with one hand, and the wind force generated was not small.

Bai Zhe took off the glue bottle and compressed it seven or eight times, and his wrist became a little sore.

"This thing is quite fiddly to use."

"Nonsense, you shouldn't do this manually."

You have to be a very neurotic person to be able to manually rub and use bullets.

"No way, and I don't want to."

Bai Zhe waved his hand, saying that I was also helpless. The interference effect of the rusty slag could not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.

"What do you want this damn thing for?"

"It is used to load and launch a new type of nanoscale electronic interference weapon. Since the weapon is still in the development stage and has some defects, it cannot be launched with electronic components."

You'd better know what you're talking about.

Rogge resisted the urge to slap the opponent with his robotic arm.This argument is like using potatoes to run supercomputers and using electric fish machines to detonate nuclear weapons.

"You superpowers are trouble."

"How is Moya's ability mastered?"

Thinking of Moya's situation, Rogge's expression became even more distorted.

They came to an abandoned construction site in Sunset Plaza, where Moya was practicing his abilities among the ruins of a remote building.

As soon as they entered the construction site area, the two felt the temperature rise sharply.

Bai Zhe saw that Moya had two more equipment like cannon barrels on his arms.The muzzle is above the arm, and the armor wraps the forearm.It's dark and looks a bit heavy.

There is also a pair of height-increasing boots on the feet, which should be the equipment planned to absorb sound.

Half of the demolished wall on the side of the construction site was covered with black scorch marks.Various sizes and shapes, overlapping and interlaced.

Moya aimed at the wall and pulled the trigger of the gun barrel with his right hand.There was a loud noise, and the direction of the sound waves was roughly controlled within a cone.

In the ears of the two people watching, the sound was not loud, and they did not feel the heat wave.

She controlled the burning fire, compressed the heat release range, further concentrated the area where the thermal energy attacked, and successfully controlled the burning area on the wall to a circle with a radius of about 0.2 meters.

Bai Zhe could clearly see the cylindrical high-temperature area in the air, and the rapidly expanding air was distorted and blurred.

"I've almost mastered this move. I can burn wherever I point it within a 50-meter range."

Moya said confidently, finally not burning a large piece in his throat.

When she spoke, she no longer breathed out the little fire dragon breath like before, and controlled the heat energy released to a minimum, giving the feeling of a warm spring breeze blowing on her face.

"What is this?"

Bai Zhe pointed to the cannon barrel on Moya's arm and asked Rogge.

"Converted from a prank noise toy.

Wear it on your arm and make a loud noise when you pull the trigger.There is sound-absorbing material on the inner wall, which can control the direction of sound waves and make people in a specific area deafened, but people nearby will not feel the sound.

I changed the shape and added a layer of shell armor with a sandwich in the middle to prevent scanning.In this way, most people cannot see the truth for a while. "

The maintenance technician is really reliable.

Although Rogge did not have any advanced equipment, he helped people repair things every day, and he had seen a lot of messy things.

This kind of noise toy has little practical value, but it is just right for Moya.

After the modification, an uninformed person would probably think that this is a device used to spit fire and release heat just by looking at the appearance, and the loud noise is just incidental.

Once Moya implants the prosthesis in his arm and puts on a specific camouflage shell, his ability to burn fire will not be so easily exposed.

"It can also change the shape of the inner wall, compressing the attack range even smaller."

After putting on the height-increasing boots, she successfully broke through 1.5 meters and was full of momentum.

Moya pulled the lever on the lower side of the barrel, and the inner chamber became very narrow.Once she controls her abilities more accurately, she can use the long-range hot knife.

"So what is this thing called?"

"Scorch cannon."

"Very good, the second grade is just right."

　Deadline Warrior failed to get stuck, so I will issue a chapter with 3000 to complete the 30-day continuous update requirement in the investment (there are still three days left to complete, so investment is welcome). Chapter 2 Don’t stay up late waiting.

　　I apologize.Cat is in the comments section.
