Chapter 648 Infected Person No. 0
"The infected person has entered the city..."
"Report, infected individuals, infection level: Level A...1 person, Level S...2 people..."
The display screen emits a red light, and a voice announcement seems to travel quite far...
The Wellington 2000 supervisory robot stared with two enormous, bulbous eyes, reflecting the scene of the outer city's trading district corridor. In the scene, Lorraine was scratching his head and looking around erratically, clearly plotting something.
In reality, Lorraine just wanted to sneak away to find someone!
Find the exit...
It's just unknown whether robots can interpret human intentions through facial expressions.
"Report: Grade A Infected, exhibiting characteristics of the Forsaken... Magical source identified, 6 legendary items, 3 epic items... Weak signal from an unknown artifact is under analysis, Titan-level creation SSS energy field awaiting confirmation..."
"Report: Two legendary Death Knight creatures detected, energy level: Quasi-god level... Extremely dangerous! Extremely dangerous, danger level... World-destroying level infection source!"
"Report: A-level infected individual, excessive necromantic energy, wearing a divine artifact, matches the wanted poster's profile... suspected Plague Messenger... top-tier bounty, worth 50 gold coins..."
......
A red light swept across the corridor, revealing that Lorraine's underwear was almost completely exposed, but he was oblivious...
The cold walls, the steel corridors, and the display cases, despite the voice prompts and information panels, still gave Lorraine the feeling of a death castle exuding a chilling atmosphere.
The thick copper and iron walls were difficult to break through. If they didn't use their dwarf toy guns, Lorraine guessed that even Godos and Yegosh's iron fists might not be able to break through the steel door, which was as thick as the city wall bricks.
Perhaps only goblin bombs can destroy this goblin tech city.
Looking at the latest goblin bomb siege models in the shop window, with a yield of XXX-level TNT... Lorraine couldn't help but wonder if using their bombs to bomb their own city would be like using their own weapon against them.
......
"Has the guest selected their desired item? If the minimum purchase of 500g cannot be met within 10 minutes, please proceed to the visitor transport channel... We will escort you to the designated channel. We look forward to your next visit..."
"Timeout expired, defender will activate attack mode..."
"Countdown 10...9...8....7..."
The little guy who was showing us the way gave us the hint to leave.
Customers who only look and touch without buying or inserting coins are wasting their time; politeness first, then firmness. The goblin-made robots have inherited their character; the Wellington 1990 is fulfilling its duty, performing its routine, its indicator lights flashing to keep time.
The situation quickly changed. The command center pressed a button, and the little guy seemed to freeze for a few seconds, trembling slightly. His two large eyes suddenly locked onto Lorraine's face, scrutinizing him closely as if he were a living person...
Because the little guy is so small, it's like a child touching an adult's calf...
The oppressive aura emanating from the two mountains of flesh behind Lorraine seemed to cause the little robot to tremble involuntarily.
It still moved closer and scanned Lorraine:
"VIP card detected. Entry to the inner city is permitted. Access requires entering a detection room. Please surrender all metal items for temporary storage. Private duels and armed conflict are prohibited within the inner city. VIP customers have access to a dedicated training ground and can also participate in the arena to win cash. Betting on your own..."
The Wellington Model 1990 robot's previously fixed, programmed voice changed, as if it had a different voice, like a different soul, and suddenly guided Lorraine to enter the inner city.
Just as the countdown began and Lorraine was about to make a move, the other party opened the second door at the perfect moment, and a huge elevator suddenly appeared out of thin air. Lorraine looked at his subordinates in confusion.
He clearly remembered instructing Godos to hide the so-called access card and key given to him by the goblin Kaz. Didn't the Death Knight have any pockets?
How did the other party find out?
It's a trap!
It must be...
But the gates of the inner city were opened?
To go in or not to go in?
I'm just looking for the entrance!
......
"Reassure Patient Zero, entrapment procedure initiated..."
"Notify the guards to activate the Pyramid Head mech."
"Inner city defense level upgraded, notify the board... Underground city will initiate self-destruct procedure in case of emergency... Infected Zero's danger level is world-ending, must be captured. With such a high rarity level, once we capture it, we'll make a fortune no matter who we sell it to!"
.....
"Zero has high research value, and the Astral Center is very interested. Don't mess it up!"
"The realm of the dead is the domain of gods, and today we are here to slay gods!"
"Even Titan-level creations are divided into tiers..."
......
"The two Death Knights beside Zero are rare species and pose an excessively high threat level. Don't destroy the underground city we've worked so hard to build. The board spent a fortune to build this first base station; it's a model unit on Horde territory!"
"It's all business, don't worry about it..."
"The return on investment has been achieved; everything else is profit..."
"Make a fortune!"
“That would be fantastic… I don’t like paper, I want gold coins… mountains of gold coins.”
Countless sounds flickered and faded across the channel...
"Idiot, it's all a numbers game. I want real, tangible results... Get to work! Don't stop..."
The cold, robotic voice vanished, replaced by a sharp male command from the backstage. Others echoed, their voices heard but their figures unseen; the entire underground city seemed like an iron shell, sealing countless empty souls within.
......
Lorraine's intuition was correct, but he couldn't hear the cacophony of conversation in the underground city's control room. The underground city was still controlled by robots, and the so-called head of the venture capital firm, Kaz & Covent, could never stand being alone.
Like dwarves and gnomes, goblins are interested in the treasures hidden deep in the earth, in the sea, and in the sky.
This place was originally just a transit point...
A legend hidden underground, the secrets of the underground city known only to a few.
Lorraine was already on the elevator, with two henchmen protecting him. He only needed to keep an eye on 'Little Beauty', and the Flesh and Blood Compass would report the location information of the person he was looking for.
The problem is that inside the metal shell, sometimes even when you're very close, separated by just a wall, there's an insurmountable barrier.
Anxious and impatient Lorraine had no idea how long the elevator beneath him had been ascending—it felt like at least ten minutes. The elevator, constantly dropping up and down, never seemed to stop. Before him lay the inner city, a garden adorned with lush greenery...
Gradually, the elevator stopped...
A transparent corridor separates a world.
