Chapter 437: Go Straight to Huanglong
Domingos Planet, Underground City No. 7.
After the riot lasted for fifteen minutes.
Yang Ming's forehead was covered with black lines. He huddled in a sewer near a "police station", pinching his nose hard and looking at Labdo with resentful eyes.
"Labdo! We obviously have other places to hide."
“But this is the safest place.”
"I really envy you for not having a sense of smell," Boss Yang rolled his eyes, "Did you gain anything?"
"My Lord," Labdo tried to make his voice sound as low as possible, "There is a huge conspiracy hidden here. By luck, I broke into their database and obtained some sensitive data. You may not be able to imagine."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "I have a pretty good imagination, just let me tell you."
"In the past hundred years, the Empire has used various means to plunder the Domingos as slaves. In fact, before each plunder of slaves by the Empire, the Domingos were already prepared.
“First, they divided the Domingos into two categories. One category multiplied on the surface, using religion, family education, and cognitive education, and using the Domingos tragedy to instill hatred in the entire society, waiting for the Empire to plunder their population and use the Empire’s army to send them to the Empire.
"These people hate the Empire from the bottom of their hearts and believe that they live in extreme misery - in fact, they do.
"In the deep layer, that is, in the underground city, the Domingos here can live a stable life, but they have two missions. The first mission is to reproduce, and the second mission is to become intelligence personnel and missionaries, to spread out secretly, to contact Domingos in different political systems and different regions, and make them a scattered but cohesive nation."
Labdo sighed:
"I am certain that the reason why the Empire has been unable to make those terrorists disappear despite clearing them out one after another is because of the support of this secret underground city cluster.
"This nation has become a tool for revenge against the empire and for destroying the empire. The people here are so pathetic."
"Labdo," Yang Ming asked, "I remember you said before that the Domingos were divided into two factions, one for revenge and the other for extreme radicalism?"
Labdo nodded immediately: "Yes."
"Then how do you judge whether the hundreds of millions of Mingos living in the underground city cluster are revenge-seeking or extremely radical?"
“Oh, this…”
"How do you judge that these people here, who we saw living peacefully, are demons seeking revenge on the empire?"
"Now that you mention it..."
"Labdo," Yang Ming said sternly, "You haven't done enough research. It's unreasonable to impose the crimes of a small number of radical terrorists on hundreds of millions of people."
"But," Labdo argued, "this is the breeding ground for terrorists."
“We still need to investigate this.”
Yang Ming said:
“Not all terrorists in the world are Domingos. Next, we have to look for three things with a purpose.
“First, there is direct evidence of links to terrorists, or sufficient indirect evidence.
“Second, we need to understand the actual people in charge here and the history textbooks they generally use to understand whether they are really carrying out hate education here.
"Third, and most importantly, we need to find the actual controller here. We need to find a way to control him."
"Capture the leader first!"
Labdo exclaimed: "Indeed, this is a truly elite fighting method, you can definitely do it!"
Yang Ming asked: "Is there any more specific and valuable information?"
"Yes," Labdo explained, "I suspect there is a highly intelligent mind here, similar to artificial intelligence. It may be a super brain created by the Domingos, and it is somewhat similar to my form of existence."
"Yeah?"
Although Yang Ming wanted to ask, "Is there a possibility that you are very similar to others?", considering that Labdu is still really naive (Lü is staring at his core data), he did not want to undermine Labdu's self-confidence.
"Labdo," Yang Ming said seriously, "The next battle plan is left to you. We need to go deeper, and you will command me!"
"yes!"
Labdo's answer was naturally powerful, but soon there was a slight hesitation in his voice.
"Well, can you accept some harsh environments?"
Boss Yang laughed: "I have been in the Empire for so many years, suffered so much, and defeated so many enemies. Why should I be afraid of a bad environment?"
Labdo's electronic eyes lit up. "Sir, you are my role model! I have obtained a full three-dimensional map of their sewage treatment system. From here, we can pass through underground cities No. 6, No. 5, and No. 4 and reach underground city No. 3! There must be all kinds of confidential documents there!"
Dirty!
"This way, sir. Their sewage system has many electronic checkpoints and some semi-automatic mechanical patrols, but it doesn't matter. I can handle them easily!"
Yang Ming's facial muscles kept twitching.
In fact, he could just roll up his sleeves and fight his way down from this level to the bottom. It really wouldn't be so hard.
"This way my Lord!"
Labdo's robot turned its head and looked at Yang Ming.
Boss Yang silently tore off two pieces of cloth from his robe and stuffed them into his nostrils.
Okay, I'm going to finish bragging even if it means crying.
…
In the mind space, Lu and Molly were already laughing together.
If Lu hadn't been able to clearly "feel" the changes in Labdo's core data, she would really have thought that Labdo was deliberately making trouble for her boss.
No, Labdo just wanted to approach the core area of Domingos Star efficiently.
Labdo, who was very enthusiastic and wanted to make great achievements, did not know at this moment that the route he planned and the plan he made were all made with the support of the intelligence provided by Lu.
Even the security measures encountered on the road were mostly solved by Law remotely.
Otherwise, Yang Ming would definitely have to smoke a few more Yinhes in the sewer.
"Law," Molly suddenly said, "A large pirate group has set their sights on the pirate squad we sent out, and they want to rob us from our thieves."
Lu immediately asked, "Can Miss Mimily solve it?"
"It can be solved," Molly said. "It seems that the Free United States is behind this group of pirates. They have made twelve consecutive jumps and arrived near the Falling Wind Alliance. I suspect they have other purposes."
Lu thought about it carefully and said slowly: "I will take over this matter."
"Okay!"
Molly immediately smiled happily.
Lu then said, "You will be responsible for the security monitoring around Captain Catherine. Remember, you must keep your eyes on the periphery of the administrative star. Captain Catherine is our boss's favorite mistress, and we must not let down our guard on security issues."
"Well, I still want to be lazy," Molly puffed up her lips.
"When we bring down the Sherman Empire and establish a regime comparable to the current empire, you will have the time to be lazy."
"Number two."
"What's wrong?"
"Your ability to draw cakes is not worse than our boss's."
"Bah, I'm being sincere," Lu squinted his eyes and smiled, "I can't give you an upgrade or server power for free, so just get to work."
Molly suddenly felt aggrieved. She spent most of computing power on serious matters and reserved a part of it... to stare at Boss Yang and Labdo's underground adventure.
…
Finally!
After running through the pipeline for three galaxies, Boss Yang and Labdo passed through layers of guards and finally invaded the edge of underground city No. 3.
The first thing Yang Ming did was to carry the maintenance robot, which had weaker mobility, out of a metal door.
Outside the metal door, a blue sky greets you.
Yang Ming felt like he was reborn, and his eyes almost filled with tears. The next second, he carried Labdu and hid under a bridge pier.
"Don't worry, sir," Labdo whispered, "This is a water resource dispatching station on the edge of the city. There is no one around, and there are only a few people on duty. I have already hacked into the surveillance system outside the city in advance."
Yang Ming gave a thumbs up, then his smile froze and he nudged Labdu with his shoulder, motioning for Labdu to look over there.
Labdo turned his head and looked.
An old man with short silver-gray hair, wearing casual clothes, wearing headphones and holding a fishing rod, was sitting more than ten meters away, fishing leisurely.
Yang Ming: …
Labdo: ...
"He must have climbed over the railing," Labdo muttered quietly, "Humans are always like this, they have a rebellious mentality towards existing regulations."
Yang Ming glared at the unreliable robot and muttered, "Come with me, let's find a way to get in first. Can you get us some identification?"
"No problem, but I may need to change my body. I can finally find some automatic robots here, but not too many," Labdo explained. "Ship repair robots are too rare here. I can just change to a sanitation robot. Can you help me change the data strip and receiver later?"
"Of course," Yang Ming said calmly, "I'm also good at screwing screws."
Originally, Hanton was an excellent maintenance worker.
After some twists and turns, Yang Ming and Labdo kidnapped a cylindrical sanitation robot and let Labdo move into it.
In order to improve Labdo's temporary computing efficiency, Yang Ming even chopped off the maintenance robot's head and placed it in the garbage handling box of the sanitation robot. He also removed some electronic components from the maintenance robot and connected an advanced positron brain to the sanitation robot.
"Your craftsmanship is really good," Labdo praised.
Yang Ming smiled and said, "I used to be the third officer on Professor Kigrove's research ship, in charge of ship maintenance and firefighting."
"Oh, I know about your struggle history. You suffered inhuman treatment during that period."
"It's not bad," Yang Ming said with a smile, "If I look back now, it was because of Kigrove's transformation that I was able to possess extraordinary powers, even though I died once in the process."
Rabdo asked, "Where are we going now?"
"Let's act together," Yang Ming said, "First, you determine the location of their core confidential server. We will try to get there. You have to be careful. This is City No. 3. The security level is much higher than City No. 7. Report any abnormalities immediately."
"Yes, well, that..."
Labdo was a little hesitant, but he still told Yang Ming candidly:
"The network technology here is indeed very difficult for me. I feel that it is a bit difficult to crack the core server of City 7. I can't guarantee that I can achieve results."
“Just try.”
Yang Ming smiled and patted Labdu's head.
——It is now only about one meter high. The main body is a cylindrical drum with four small wheels that can be turned at will at the bottom. There is also a cute semi-circular head on the top, and the projection device on it has a slogan of "garbage recycling".
Yang Ming also took off his stain-free robe and changed into a light-colored casual outfit.
With his hands in his pockets, he walked with the sanitation robot on the road on the edge of the city, constantly looking at the layout of various places in the city.
The buildings in the city are not too tall, but each residential building has a great extension downwards and is divided into more than 40 floors below, each with a complete set of living facilities.
The whole city does not have the three-dimensional sense of a surface city, nor does it have a sense of oppression. Looking up, you can see the blue sky and white clouds simulated by the projection device, and several rivers meander through the city.
Labdo sighed:
"The housing price gap here is also very large. We are now in the 'Fantasy Light Layer', where the housing price per unit area is dozens of times that of the 'Constant Light Layer' below.
"Sure enough, as long as human society develops, individual differentiation and class division will appear."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "This is also a normal phenomenon caused by individual differences ."
"We've found their confidential server, near the spire in the center," Labdo explained. "There's a library there, which is a good place to break into. But... I'm worried that once we crack their protection layer, it will trigger an alarm."
"Don't worry," Yang Ming said, "Go over and give it a try. If it doesn't work, I'll carry you and run."
"Hahaha, yes sir."
Labdo began to concentrate on hacking into the peripheral network and making library passes for Yang Ming and himself.
To be on the safe side, he also transferred a similar sanitation robot from near the library.
There are many pedestrians on the road. It should be working hours now. Many stores are closed and the density of patrol police is much lower than that in City No. 7. Yang Ming feels that everywhere here is simple and peaceful.
Monotonous and peaceful.
He could see couples cuddling together on the park promenade, hear laughter coming from behind the school wall, see middle-aged uncles passing by in a hurry, and old men reading in the pavilion.
“It’s quite peaceful here.”
"Yes, sir," Labdo whispered, "I am also a little shaken. It seems that this place has nothing to do with the terrorists."
"Investigate first, then talk about other things."
"Sir, I'm going to the maintenance station outside the library," Labdo reminded, "You can wander around the area. I'll contact you as soon as I have any questions."
"come on."
Yang Ming encouraged Labdu, then put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the nearby park.
He also wanted to go shopping, but unfortunately he didn't have much money.
After Labdo entered the vicinity of the maintenance station, Yang Ming turned a corner and went straight into the library without a threshold. What he saw were densely packed bookshelves and special projection devices for books on the shelves.
These devices can be taken out at will and put back in place when finished.
Yang Ming took a copy of "Surface Customs", walked to a secluded corner, and tapped his watch twice, releasing a micro spy robot the size of dust.
Half a minute later, Yang Ming heard Lu's reminder voice from the hidden earphone in his ear.
“We’ve entered this layer of the network… We’ve cracked this layer’s core network… Uh, boss, they’re looking for you and Labdo.
"The guy at the bottom who is suspected to be the clone of the principle has fully awakened, and all seven layers of the network have been mobilized."
"They want to mark me...that's it?"
Yang Ming sensed Lu's confidence and casually flipped through the books in front of him.
"Lv., if you have any problem, tell me and I'll beat you right up."
"Okay, boss... Boss, there are some automated armed forces hidden in each of the seven underground cities, but they are not a big threat to you."
Lu suddenly uttered a sigh:
“The other party has discovered my whereabouts, so impressive.
"The other party 's leader has sent out a signal on the entire internal network, and it seems that he wants to talk to you directly. Do you want to respond to them, boss?"
Yang Ming frowned slightly.
"How is the progress of the Labdo investigation?"
"I am in complete control of the progress. He cannot go too deep into the network."
"That's good," Yang Ming thought for a moment, "Take the initiative to tell the other party my location. I don't want to go into the sewer again. Let Labdo continue to work hard here."
"Released."
As soon as Lu finished speaking, Yang Ming felt a sudden chill on his back.
He subconsciously turned his head to look, only to see that in the library, there were several semi-automatic robots that were maintaining the cleanliness of the bookshelves. They were rotating their heads and looking over here at the same time.
The projected book in front of Yang Ming quickly twisted, and a beautiful bust suddenly appeared, frowning and staring at Yang Ming, who was disguised as a middle-aged man.
Yang Ming also frowned and looked into the other person's eyes.
But the beautiful woman's figure quickly faded;
The projection changed to an office, where an old man with completely white hair sat quietly behind a desk, staring at Yang Ming with a frown.
"Hello," the old woman whispered in her slightly hoarse voice, "outsider, I don't know how you got here, but now, please put down your weapon and accept our arrest."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Don't you want to talk to me?"
"You have been locked on by us now. Our armed forces will arrive soon... uh."
The old man's voice paused, he pursed his lips tightly, and his wrinkled brows were twisted into a ball.
On Yang Ming's watch, the exclusive badge of the White Ghost flickered slightly.
"I'm very interested in your place," Yang Ming said softly, "I don't want to kill innocent people, nor do I want these beautiful cities you worked so hard to build to be razed to the ground. Send a special car to pick me up and prepare some delicious food."
"As you command," the old man said with a wry smile, "Sir Ghost."
