Chapter 5: New World

In order to satisfy the repeated requests of Wang Shu, a teenager with internet addiction, Luo Xingyi inquired about the black market here, entered a small building around corners, sold a submachine gun and two miniature bombs, and exchanged some for now. currency in circulation.

In a place like Qinglan's downtown area where good and bad people are mixed, there is no law and order, but everyone has their own way of life, black clinics, prostitution, drug trafficking, robbery, theft... If there is no big black market in this place, then Is it really abnormal - where to sell the stolen goods?

It's also considered that the armed men who invaded the "Moon Palace" brought good equipment. According to the boss, these goods are rarely seen on the black market, and they asked a lot whether they were imported goods.Luo Xingyi smiled naturally without saying a word, "I will give you a look to experience it yourself" in a profound manner.

While exchanging these things for a good price, Luo Xingyi also felt that he should pay attention to some problems.Obviously, these well-equipped armed men will not be ordinary people, they are not poor and crazy to steal casually, then this is an interesting question.

——What is the purpose of these elites carrying cutting-edge weapons into the "Moon Palace" to find him, and who are they hired by?

Besides, why did the "Storing Fire Movement" stop in the middle of the year, and why did everyone evacuate from the "Moon Palace" after he was dormant for a year, without taking him or Wang Shu?

Everything remains a mystery without clues.

Luo Xingyi threw away Wangshu's mobile phone, "Let's go boy, let's take a look at the Internet cafes in the new era."

It's a pity that the Internet cafes in the new era are not serious Internet cafes. They are no different from the black Internet cafes in the past. Most of the service targets are lazy teenagers who have nothing to do.In the dimly lit room, the people seated are either smoking cigarettes in the smog, or staring at their own screens, and no one cares about others.

The owner of the Internet cafe sitting in front of the stage raised his eyelids when he saw Luo Xingyi approaching, "Singapore dollars an hour, twenty nights included."

Luo Xingyi paid the money for two hours casually, found a computer and sat down amidst the sound of scolding and fighting.

Maybe it's because this place is too backward, or maybe it's because the design of the computer hasn't had any revolutionary changes.

Wang Shu can connect to the computer network through the radiation of the body, so Luo Xingyi doesn't care about it, let it update the data and improve its own program by itself, staring at the computer screen in a daze.

Perhaps it was his quietness that was incompatible with the surrounding painting style that affected the teenager next to him. While waiting in line for matching, the teenager with two dark circles took the initiative to talk to him with a cigarette in his mouth: "Brother, why don't you play games?" Huh? Playing "Doomsday"? Come to the fifth district and take you flying, shoot a bunch of zombies, the whole server can't find a second Lao Tzu to operate like this."

Luo Xingyi was still wearing a black special combat uniform picked off from someone else's body. The zipper was pulled up to his neck. His black hair was tied into a small tail by a cloth belt. The black clothes, black hair and white skin made the contrast extremely sharp.

And when he looked at it, the boy's trembling legs stopped.

He has never even heard of such things as school, let alone reading and education. He doesn't know a few big characters.

But at this moment, he felt very clearly that this person was different from him, even from the people living here.

This place belongs to the three-way zone, and everyone comes and goes, but the young man somehow feels that this person in front of him is different from those other outsiders.Especially his eyes, under the light of the computer screen, turned a little red.

This is not a good sign. The catastrophe brought by the "Sunset" virus is so tragic that even teenagers who have not really lived in the era of zombies know that the eyes of zombies are all red.

He looked at Luo Xingyi, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and smiled under the other's gaze, "Forget it if you don't come." He honestly turned his head back with cold sweat.

When Luo Xingyi found out that under his watch, the boy who claimed to be number one in the server would die tragically in various magical poses, he looked away.He browsed around on the desktop and opened a browser to search the history of the past 24 years.

Wang Shu seemed to have deduced Luo Xingyi's thoughts based on Luo Xingyi's search behavior, and a string of words was typed on the phone screen: Mr. Luo, I have retrieved and sorted out the historical data and will upload them to your computer later.

As soon as this line of words appeared, a document interface appeared on the computer screen in front of Luo Xingyi, and densely packed words occupied the entire screen.

【Mr. Luo, I will explain to you the major events that have occurred in the outside world in the past 24 years in chronological order.

In July 2021, the zombie virus "Sunset" broke out globally, and the human crisis began. Later generations called this July the "end month".

In September of the same year, the first batch of zombie viruses mutated, and the rapidly deteriorating situation led to a breakdown in human civilization. Human beings faced a serious survival crisis and passed through a very cold winter. (Mr. Luo, your dormant plan also happened at this time, but the plan you participated in is the most encrypted file in my database, and I cannot disclose any information to you.)

In February 2022, the first generation of antibody vaccine was successfully tested. (At the end of March, all uninfected personnel were evacuated from the "Moon Palace", and I was responsible for comprehensive disinfection. The cause of the incident: the "Moon Palace" was infected and was no longer suitable for human survival.)

In the spring of April 2022, the first official military fortress base announced the establishment of a new country. At that time, the living environment of human beings was extremely harsh. In order to compete for supplies and non-nuclear-contaminated land, more than one bloody conflict broke out between countries. In the next seven years, it gradually expanded into a worldwide war.

The global political system has been transformed into a militaristic country, divided into several major military divisions according to camps to fight against each other.

Until the end of December 2028, at the meeting of the temporarily reorganized United Nations General Assembly, representatives of the major military regions agreed to sign a peace treaty.

So far, the seven years of chaos have gradually subsided, and the process of human history has finally been able to re-develop.

The economic recovery after the war was quite difficult, and the problems left by years of focusing on heavy industry in production were hard to overcome. As a result, the current level of heavy industry in the Eastern Military Region far exceeds that of light industry.The development of light industry and cultural entertainment industry is not great, and it is only in recent years that they gradually catch up with the requirements of the times...

Supplement: In January 2029, due to the vast land and sparse population, less than one-tenth of the population of the region remained, and there was an urgent need to produce labor. The Eastern Military Region began the first batch of "Human Revival Plans" to encourage births and implement a series of related policies .Click here to view related documents]

Luo Xingyi thought for a while, and typed a string of words to ask Wang Shu: Then what's the situation where we are now?How did Qinglan City become like this?

After all, he is a native of Qinglan City. Even if he knows that the people living here cannot be blamed for the city's decline, how can anyone be indifferent after seeing the place where he grew up being ruined like this?

A second later, Wang Shu gave out another document.

[Currently, according to the division of the new map, our geographical location belongs to the border area of ​​the Eastern Military Region. According to the comprehensive information from all sources, this place does not belong to the Eastern Military Region, and is still outside its boundaries.

Strictly speaking, the place we are in is not even a peripheral base. There is no self-government, and there has been no management for many years. It can only be regarded as a place where a group of human beings live together.

After the outbreak of the virus and the destruction of Qinglan City, the place was once an abandoned city. Because it was not supervised, a large number of desperate people and criminals gathered. Later, a large number of smugglers and gangsters gathered. It is called "Elysium City".

However, due to its proximity to the "pollution source" (Note), and because of the complexity of the characters involved and the involvement of too many people, it is difficult to manage, so it has become the "three no-regards" where the Eastern Military Region does not care about it, the local government does not care about it, and other military regions do not approach it due to political reasons. "zone.

became what you see today.

Having said that, I think I should give you another extended reading.The current Eastern Military Region seems to be unified, but in fact it is divided into multiple forces, which can be compared to the forces of warlords.The reason comes down to the fact that before the establishment of the military region, the major military bases established to fight against the zombies have long been independent, and they have become small countries.

During the world war, all the military bases of the Eastern Military Region were unanimously foreign, but after the signing of the peace treaty, a civil war started, which did not take long.

A year later, the Central Military Region incorporated several large military bases around it, and other bases are currently being incorporated gradually.

……

(Note) Pollution source: The "Sunset" virus, which caused the worst catastrophe in human history, mutated twice, and then multiplied and developed to pollute the sea area adjacent to Qinglan City, and it has not been purified in the past 24 years.

And after many years of fusion and mutation, today's "sunset" will cause any human or animal exposed to the virus to have two pathological consequences: [-]. Transform into a walking dead after death; [-]. Mutate into a new creature.

Therefore, it can be said that human beings have not completely defeated the "sunset" virus until now, and can only keep it far away. 】

After browsing through several documents and information given by Wang Shu, Luo Xingyi sat in his seat without moving for a long time.

He thought, history is really a feng shui turn.Qinglan City used to be an international metropolis, a technological core city attracting worldwide attention, but after all, because of its proximity to pollution sources, once it fell into the clouds, it became the lair of all kinds of bulls, snakes, ghosts and gods. The mud was renamed "Elysium City".

Elysium...

Luo Xingyi smiled wryly in his heart, could it be that his life was so miserable that he had to place good hopes on the name?

This future is too different from the future he imagined, and it doesn't seem to be any better than the last days where zombies are ravaging.

According to the information obtained by Wang Shu, even if there is a powerful military region government, the decrees that can be promulgated strictly follow the central idea of ​​"governing troubled times with heavy codes", taking over and regulating the lives of most people.

However, this can be regarded as someone's control. After all, there are still a small half of the places that are not controlled. Even the Internet is not a unified network, hiding their secrets like light-absorbing black holes.

Wang Shu was allowed to wander freely on the Internet for nearly an hour. Luo Xingyi saw the young man next to him playing games like sitting on pins and needles. Characters died again and again, so he raised the corner of his mouth amusedly. True love, I took my phone and left.

Wangshu, who had completed some program upgrades, wanted to express his joy very much. It typed a string of text on the screen of the phone: Mr. Luo, I have installed and upgraded many new programs on my own. You can try them out when you have time ( 〃'▽'〃)

Luo Xingyi glanced at it and didn't dare to move anymore... The sudden appearance of the magical kaomoji made people feel very weird!The more you say that, the less I dare to try!

After coming out of the Internet cafe, it was already dark, Luo Xingyi walked around the street, found a hotel with decent decoration and sanitation, and walked in.

This hotel may be the more popular one here. As soon as you enter the lobby, you can see many people sitting together drinking and chatting, in small groups, very happy.Seeing Luo Xingyi walking in, these people all looked at him, the weapon and backpack he was carrying in unison.

As if assessing him, these sizing eyes hovered over him for a few times, then retracted them as if nothing had happened, and continued the conversation.

Luo Xingyi went straight to the front desk and said to the proprietress who was watching a TV series, "A private room."

"Please prepare some more food, I'll come down to eat later." He took out a pile of money and put it on the counter, not sure about the prices here, and said, "Let's stay for 500 SGD first."

Hearing Qian's voice, the proprietress raised her eyes and glanced at him in the midst of watching the show. After this glance, the proprietress stopped watching the show and handed out a key with a smile: "Go to the third room on the left on the second floor." She looked at the things on Luo Xingyi's body, and reminded with a blink of an eye: "Little handsome guy, put away the things by yourself, and you won't be compensated if you lose them."

After receiving the cramp-like winks from the proprietress, Luo Xingyi smiled awkwardly but politely, took the key, went up the stairs next to him to the second floor, and opened his door to take a look.

The room is small but tidy. The sheets, quilt covers and pillowcases are all washed and replaced. In this Paradise City, it is considered one of the best places to stay. There is really nothing to be picky about.

After entering the room and turning around, Wang Shu didn't detect any electronic equipment that shouldn't be there, so Luo Xingyi unloaded his weapon and backpack with confidence.After re-bandaging the wound on his waist, he put on a new set of clothes, took the keys and Wangshu, opened the door and went downstairs to eat.

When going downstairs, I happened to meet a tall man walking up. The stairs are relatively narrow, and it is impossible for two people to pass at the same time. They have to cooperate and turn sideways.

When they reached the middle of the stairs, the two were about to meet face to face.

The wooden boards of the stairs creaked, and the man seemed to be walking on ice wrapped in a cold wind and snow. His imposing manner and temperament were quite different from those of the entire hall, and Luo Xingyi couldn't help but take a look - he didn't expect that the person coming was so sharp. The next second Xing Yi looked over, he raised his head, followed this gaze and looked back calmly.

As they went up and down the stairwell, the eyes of the two intersected for a brief moment. Under the dim light, Luo Xingyi relied on the advantage of standing on a high place to clearly see the pair of light blue eyes when the other person raised his eyes.

Then go downstairs and pass by sideways.
