Strange Realm: Old Object Collector

Chapter 207 Second-tier cities
Jiangcheng City is a city different from Qingyu City and Xiangcheng City.

Because this place is located at the convergence of three rivers, commerce has been very prosperous since ancient times due to the convenient water transportation. It is now also a second-tier city in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

And this is also Chen Wang’s first time coming to a second-tier city.

"Chen Wang, do you want to buy VR glasses?" Shiqi said suddenly.

Chen Wang rubbed his eyes and exhaled slightly.

Although he is now a third-level warrior, his body is far stronger than that of ordinary people, and looking at his mobile phone for a long time will not have any impact.

But he still felt that his eyes were instinctively uncomfortable.

Now he has read 81 novels, which is only 19 short of completing his old wish.

It only takes about two or three days.

"Why buy VR glasses?" Chen Wang asked with some confusion.

"It's really..." Chen Wang was speechless.

The world is like this now. As a person who can't control his life or death, what can he change?
At this time, Chen Wang saw a man wearing VR glasses, his hands and feet making strange movements, as if he was hugging someone.

"Okay." Chen Wang nodded. He looked at the people around him, all wearing glasses, and for some reason he felt a sense of unreality in his heart.

"Are those VR glasses?" Chen Wang looked at the people around him and couldn't help but ask Shi Qi.

"The frame and frame of these glasses are made of special materials, and the whole thing weighs less than 10 grams." Replied Seventeen.

Thinking of this, Chen Wang didn't feel any pleasure in his heart. Instead, he felt a little uncomfortable.

It can be said that Ge Fengyao's parents had so much money that their eyes, legs and feet had been treated long ago.

"It's mixed with strange metal materials, so it can be so light." Seventeen said with no surprise.

A few hours later, the car got off the highway and entered the city from the suburbs.

The car drove into it, making Chen Wang feel insignificant.

He put on his glasses and asked Xiang Shiqi: "How should I operate?"

Then, the originally ordinary street lit up with colorful lights, and a group of people appeared on the street around it.

He never expected that such a small thing would cost so much money.

Some of these people are flying in the air, while others are wandering on the streets.

Chen Wang got the VR glasses.

It seems that if you don't bring it, you are out of touch with this city.

Others spend their entire lives fighting for this money.

Thinking of this, he thought it would be better to take it with him.

"Press the hidden button at the end of the right temple, and leave the rest to me." Shiqi replied.

"All men are created equal..." He muttered to himself, then shook his head, feeling a little helpless.

He understood that this person must have fallen into a virtual world.

This kind of weight is very light even if it is placed on ordinary glasses, let alone VR glasses.

"Because Jiangcheng City is a second-tier city. It has been covered with magic nets, and the whole city can be transformed into virtual reality. Only with VR glasses can you see a complete Jiangcheng City." Shiqi explained.

In the urban area of ​​​​Jiangcheng City, the buildings are very high, and the walls are covered with glass, shining in the sun.

Chen Wang nodded and pressed the button.

As the button was pressed, a flash of light appeared on his glasses.

"Okay, this will be quick." Shi Qi made an OK gesture.

"How much did you spend on this?" Chen Wang asked.

This kind of technology is a bit too perverted.

Perhaps the virtual world is the only place where ordinary people can find existence today.

"Forget it, I don't want to think about this anymore." Chen Wang shook his head, and then he opened the express box, and a pair of very ordinary-looking silver-rimmed glasses appeared.

"10 grams?" Chen Wang looked at Qi Qi in surprise.

Immediately, the car stopped at the express delivery point.

"Is Jiangcheng complete?" Chen Wang paused slightly and said, "Okay, you can buy it for me. I'll get it when you enter the city."

But what surprised him was that the express box was extremely light, as if there was nothing inside.

"One million?" Chen Wang's eyes widened.

But he can use this money to buy a pair of glasses.

"Yes, but these are relatively common styles. The ones I bought for you are limited editions. They are super light and no different from ordinary glasses." Seventeen replied.

"One million." Shiqi said, "But don't worry, as a third-level group member, you will have a certain subsidy, only 250,000."

After all, he didn't want to attract anyone's attention here.

At the same time, Chen Wang also noticed that the people here were wearing glasses that covered their eyes, which looked very strange.

What caught Chen Wang's attention even more was that on that chair, the man who was doing strange movements was holding a beautiful woman and teasing her from time to time.

“In this city, many people are reluctant to go out, but like to use virtual warehouses to project themselves into the city.

They can be from one corner of the city to another in an instant. "Seventeen replied.

Then, she saw Chen Wang looking towards the seat, and then explained: "Of course, there are also some companion dolls that the citizens bought for themselves.

These companion puppets can also be projected into the virtual world of the city. "

When Chen Wang heard Shi Qi's words, he couldn't help but look at the passenger seat beside him.

At this time, Shi Qi was sitting next to him.

"If you wear these glasses, you can also see me in the magic network." Seventeen shrugged and said.

"It's really magical." Chen Wang took off his glasses, and the surrounding area immediately faded, and Shi Qi disappeared.

The man on the seat was still making weird movements, and even pouted.

Chen Wang's mouth twitched and he put on his glasses again.

The surroundings immediately became colorful again.

At this time, Chen Wang suddenly understood why people in this city liked wearing glasses so much.

If not, then normal people will become abnormal people.

"Go to Jiangcheng Library." Chen Wang shook his head and said to Shiqi beside him.

"Okay." Shiqi nodded, and then said: "487, go to Jiangcheng Library."

"Okay, dear member, your destination has been locked and we are about to go." The voice of 487 came from the speaker.

The steering wheel turned slowly, controlling the car and driving towards Jiangcheng Library.

"Will anyone see you like this?" Chen Wang held his cell phone and prepared to continue reading the novel.

But halfway through, he suddenly asked Shi Qi.

Seventeen's identity is quite sensitive. If anyone recognized her, that would be trouble.

"No. You can see me because I added some programs to your glasses. Others can't see me without this program." Seventeen lay comfortably on the seat, lazily Yang Yang said.

Hearing her say this, Chen Wang felt relieved.

This is naturally the best.

Not long after, the car stopped at Jiangcheng Library.

Once here, Chen Wang made a reservation in the library, and then walked into the library according to the icon given by the magic network.

The entire library seemed very quiet, with the slight sound of turning books and the slight tapping of keyboards.

The people here, the people in reality, represent about one-third.

The remaining people all came here through the magic network at home. The environment of the library is still very attractive, so here, in addition to people reading books, there are also people working.

However, these people are semi-hidden.

People who wear VR glasses can block the influence of these virtual people.

Chen Wang arrived here, booked a single room, sat down, and read a novel.

"By the way, I have one thing to tell you. There will be a football match in this city recently. In order to ensure the normal operation of the match, the officials decided to use artificial rain elsewhere for the rain clouds that are about to drift over." At this time, Qi suddenly spoke.

Hearing Shi Qi's words, Chen Wangsi immediately pulled away from the novel and looked at the other party in surprise, "So it won't rain here recently?"

"No." Seventeen shook his head.

In fact, she didn't know why Chen Wang cared so much about the rain, but after learning the news, she decided to inform Chen Wang immediately.

Hearing Qi Qi say this, Chen Wang felt a little caught off guard.

If it doesn't rain these days, Xiao Lin will not be able to complete his old wish.

"That's a bit difficult..." Chen Wang rubbed his eyebrows.

There was nothing he could do to change this official decision.

You can't kill a few football stars, right?
Not to mention that he is morally incapable of doing such a thing.

Even if he wanted to do this, the chat group wouldn't allow it.

"Is the rain affecting you?" Shi Qi asked.

"It's affected." Chen Wang nodded.

That sharp feature can be said to be a very practical feature.

With this characteristic, it would be much easier for him to encounter monsters in the strange realm.

"Then this is not beyond the control of intervention." Qi Qi supported his chin and said slowly.

"How to intervene?" Chen Wang was slightly stunned and asked.

"Recently, there is an evil god believer who has been hiding deep here and has been killing people in Jiangcheng City. Jiangcheng City is also hiding the news.

If you can find this evil believer, kill him, make things worse, and everyone is in danger, then the football game will definitely not be held. "Seventeen said.

Having said this, she blinked and looked at Chen Wang and said, "Besides, this has another advantage. That is, if you kill this evil god believer, you can get contribution points. And there will definitely be a group of evil beasts near this evil god believer. ."I can also help you find it."

"Believers of the evil god?" Chen Wang frowned upon hearing this.

He did not expect that Jiangcheng City, as a second-tier city, would actually have followers of the evil god.

"Don't be so surprised." Seeing Chen Wang's appearance, Shi Qi shook his head and said: "Anywhere, there will be followers of the evil god. As long as people have evil thoughts or hatred, there will be various coincidences and some methods of sacrifice. , delivered to their hands.”

"This sounds a bit like the method used by Guiyu." Listening to Shi Qi's words, Chen Wang felt more and more like he had seen it before.

This method is very similar to the method used by Weird Realm to erase information.

Like some kind of rule.

"Have you forgotten? Taboo is the evil god who has not grown up." Shi Qi rolled his eyes at Chen Wang and said.

"Okay." Chen Wang nodded.

It is not surprising that the evil god can have such means.

Then he pondered. This thing did sound good, but it still had a certain degree of danger.

He thought for a while and then said, "Send me his specific information and I will check it."

"Okay." Shiqi nodded, then pointed at Chen Wang's phone.

Immediately a document appeared on the phone.

Chen Wang clicked on the document.

"On November 913, 11, a family in Jinhai Community, Hedong Street, was murdered. At the scene of the crime, a large number of corpse remains were found, as well as traces of gnawing on the corpse, with serious missing internal organs. Judging from the forensic identification report, gnawing The eater is 2% likely to be human.

On the evening of November 913, 11, a woman was jogging by the Kongzhou River in the early morning when she found the body of a homeless man. The body's internal organs were missing and there were signs of gnawing.

On the evening of November 913, 11, three members of a family in Xianyun Community on Cihang Road were killed at home. Their internal organs were missing and there were signs of being eaten.

......"

Looking at the files, Chen Wang became more and more frightened.

This killing was too much. In just a few days, at least thirty people were killed and sacrificed.

He seemed to be more dangerous than the evil god believer he had seen before.

"This person's strength should be level two. He is a difficult character to deal with." Shiqi paused and said.

Hearing Shi Qi's words, Chen Wang was speechless.

Regardless of his current warrior strength, he is at level three.

But his Nianshi is only at the first level, close to the second level.

The strength of the sequencer far exceeds that of the mind master.

Even at the second level, it is still extremely difficult.

Although, he is not too afraid.

Chen Wang thought for a while and said, "How should I find him?"

"I conducted an analysis based on the victim's life records in the past few decades. Based on the information exchange and analysis, I have roughly locked the identity of the evil god's believer." Shi Qi thought for a while and sent a message to Chen Wang's mobile phone. .

"Yu Le, born on October 895, 10, is a native of Jiangcheng City. ID number:... Address: Unit 10, Building 301, Lindu Garden, Xingshun Street, Kongzhou District. Father..."

Chen Wang looked at the other party's message, paused, and looked at Shiqidao: "Due to the devil, the gap between reality and virtuality was distorted, and then he was selected by the evil god?"

"It should be like this. After all, computing power is limited, and it is still difficult to design a good magic doll. Yu Le made a magic doll based on the character of his dead Qingmei, and the character is very in line with market demand.

So the Golem Company created other golems based on his golem, and even used his Qingmei's physical appearance in order to restore authenticity. "Seventeen explained.

Chen Wang was stunned and said, "Isn't it illegal for this puppet company to do this?"

"It's not illegal." Shiqi shook his head and said, "Because they obtained the authorization from Yu Leqingmei's parents."

Hearing Qi Qi say this, Chen Wang didn't know what to say.

In this world, technology is developing rapidly, and artificial intelligence and robots have been able to replace more than 90% of human jobs.

But some people can develop other remaining values ​​of mankind.

Such as the Octagonal Cage, the Blood Lion Colosseum, or this kind of devil.

To a certain extent, humans have become a consumable resource that can be exploited.

"I'll send you Yu Le's approximate location." Shi Qi sighed and said, "I know people like Yu Le are pitiful, but even pitiful people shouldn't take action against innocent people.

I believe you should be able to understand this. "

She stared at Chen Wang, waiting for Chen Wang's reply.

On the Internet, she has seen many people ignore the other person's evil deeds because they sympathized with the other person.

It's like seeing a stray cat and just thinking about feeding it, without even thinking about the death of frogs, birds, etc. because of the stray cat.

Although she knew that Chen Wang was not such a person, she was not afraid of anything like this, just in case.

Human nature is fickle, she has known that for a long time.

"Yeah." Chen Wang nodded.

That's why he feels comfortable being in the chat group.

If you have any grudges or entanglements, you can seek revenge against your enemies.

If there is no hatred, then one cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately.

Now that Yu Le is a madman, he naturally kills the best.

Seeing Chen Wang's expression, Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief and sent the address to Chen Wang.
