Night’s Nomenclature Chapter 62: 1 net


Qingchen stood on the apron, the aeroplane's turbojet stirring up noisy wind and waves.

Suddenly, looking into the distance.

There is a light rail running through the sky between cities. White light shines through the dense windows, like a white Pegasus.

What’s even more amazing is that it is passing between dense buildings.

It was not passing through the gaps between the buildings, but holes were dug into the tall buildings. The light rail passed through the buildings like tunnels.

This city is inexplicably mysterious.

"Since you can come out at any time, why do you still need to stay in Prison No. 18?" Qingchen suddenly asked.

"Because the prison is cleaner than here? You will know later," Li Shutong did not answer directly.

When the waiter turned around to lead the way, Qingchen asked in a low voice: "It's already one o'clock in the middle of the night. Is the restaurant still open?"

Li Shutong glanced at him: "Life in this city that never sleeps has just begun."

"Don't you need to sleep? Don't you need to work tomorrow?" Qingchen was confused.

"Qing's previously discovered the unique role of neuron connection technology, which can simulate neural bands outside the brain and help people enter deep sleep. Two or three hours of sleep a day is enough," Li Shutong said.

"Does this technology have no side effects?" Qingchen asked again.

"Of course," Li Shutong said: "After using this technology for a month, you won't be able to sleep in even if you want to."

"It's a bit miserable," Qingchen lamented. Although he worked hard, he still enjoyed sleeping occasionally.

Li Shutong said to Qingchen: "Technology is a double-edged sword. No one knows whether it brings blessing or disaster to mankind. For example, Li Shi once developed genetically modified fast-growing forest trees, fast-growing corn, and fast-growing soybeans. As a result, large areas of land could no longer grow plants thirty years later. The Kashima Consortium originally developed animal husbandry, but after transgenics, it was discovered that those transgenic livestock lost their fertility after three generations."

While human beings continue to enjoy the achievements of science and technology, they are also constantly suffering the backlash of wisdom.

Li Shutong continued: "When humans no longer need to sleep for so long, production efficiency has not improved much, but it has caused emptiness in the human spiritual world."

Of course, Qingchen feels that the outside world has not suffered such a fierce backlash for the time being, maybe because they are not as radical as the inner world.

At this time, Qingchen saw a huge flower boat flying between the buildings at his feet. The flower boat was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, but it gave off a strange aura.

Qingchen couldn’t understand the totems on the ship at all.

Li Shutong followed his gaze and said: "Don't look, it's a cruise ship of the Mechanicus. Every second it sprays liquid oxygen and methane, it uses the blood and sweat of believers."

As he spoke, Li Shutong had no expression on his face.

The two of them were sitting in the exquisite and luxurious restaurant. The well-dressed waiter brought a piece of braised pork and placed it in front of Li Shutong.

Only one pair of chopsticks.

"Where's mine?" Qingchen wondered.

"You're wearing a mask, so you can't eat it." Li Shutong picked up a piece of braised pork nonchalantly.

Qingchen: "..."

After a while, Li Shutong looked up at him with a smile: "Are you hungry?"

"A bit," Qingchen said.

As a result, Li Shutong actually called the waiter: "Bring him a bowl of fried noodles."

"Okay Mr. Li," the waiter responded politely.

Even in Sunlight Pavilion, we have never made fried noodles.

After the noodles were ready, Li Shutong dismissed everyone, and then said to Qingchen: "Take off the mask and eat noodles."

Qingchen looked out the window while mixing noodles.

This should be one of the tallest buildings in City No. 18. Looking up, there are only two buildings in the distance standing in the sky with it.

"That's the building of the Qing family and the Li family," Li Shutong explained.

Qingchen looked down again. The densely packed buildings were connected by corridors. The whole city was like a Milky Way, and the lights and neon lights were the stars in that Milky Way.

Occasionally, a floating car flies by, and the opponent's turbine flames are like shooting stars.

At a certain moment, Qingchen was in an 88-story high-rise building and felt like he was between heaven and earth, distant and majestic.

"Is this the most beautiful scenery in City No. 18?" Qingchen asked.

"The Eternal Building was built on six buildings. Based on those six buildings, it has its current height and beauty. If you don't consider the graffiti, urine stains, sewage, and crime on the underlying buildings, then this is the most beautiful place "The scenery is amazing," Li Shutong said: "Today I will show you the most beautiful scenery. If there is still a chance, I can show you the ugliest side of this city."

As he spoke, Li Shutong pointed to the side: "There is a telescope next to the window for diners to enjoy the scenery. You can take a look."

Qingchen walked to the telescope.

He saw the endless flow of vehicles on the ground and the crowd of people playing and playing.

Someone is graffitiing strange but trendy paintings on the wall, and there are white smoke from the barbecue restaurant and wine flags from the izakaya fluttering in the wind.

Suddenly, he saw two black helicopters slowly landing on the square platform downstairs. More than 20 combat team members jumped out of the cabin and rushed into the Eternal Building in a tactical formation.

There are also two mechanical dogs running quickly beside them.

These people were armed with weapons that Qingchen could not name.

Obviously he came for Li Shutong.

Qingchen turned back to look at Li Shutong, but the teacher smiled calmly: "Eat first."

"Yeah," Qingchen ate the noodles seriously.

Now Li Shutong became interested: "Aren't you afraid?"

"It's the first time a teacher takes a student out to see the scenery. He won't let the student die on the way ~IndoMTL.com~ Otherwise the teacher would be too incompetent," Qingchen said matter-of-factly.

Li Shutong's hearty laughter swayed outward.

He really fell in love with Qingchen more and more.

At this moment, the more than 20 combat team members in the building were divided into two teams. One team took the elevator and climbed up to the 87th floor, while the other team entered the safety escape passage and searched upwards on foot.

Outside the Eternal Building, two Black Kite-01 armed helicopters rose into the sky again.

They are slowly hovering around the 70th floor of the Eternal Building, ready for heavy fire support at any time.

Farther away in a temporary military base, more than a dozen armed helicopters and aerostats had just taken off.

Farther away, Qing's giant aerostat "Land Cruise" began to load new solid fuel tanks while the logistics staff were busy.

All this is like a net, gradually tightening.

Just when the network was tightening, in the communication channel, the leader of the combat team calmly said: "Stop, check the charging status of each mechanical limb on the spot, and give me feedback."

After saying that, he signaled all members of the tactical team in the stairs of the safe passage to enter a state of silence and briefly shut down all communication systems.

After he was sure that the sound would not be transmitted back to the headquarters, he said calmly: "Boss Chen has told me that if you want to leave here alive tonight, don't shoot. Remember, don't drag other people down."

"Squad leader, I don't understand," a combat team member was stunned for a moment.

The team leader said: "You will understand in the future. Repeat, no shooting is allowed. Repeat, no shooting is allowed."

But before they could reconnect the communication equipment, a black shadow quietly fell between them on the stairs.

Ferocious and powerful.
