Ma Gongping, the governor of the Southern Region, slowly walked out from the corner with his hands behind his back, and then stood in the center of the square.
He looked solemnly at the 5,000 players who were being auditioned for the God-making Project in the square.
After a week of intensive preparations, 5,000 people were carefully selected from the six provinces and states and hundreds of cities under the jurisdiction of the Southern Region.
The vast majority of players here are potential players selected from the fifth-tier guilds, and they have all performed well in previous dungeons.
There are even occasional elites recommended from sixth-tier guilds.
Of course, people with connections exist in every era.
Among these 5,000 players, there are also about 100 to 200 people with connections, all of whom are children and descendants of business and political figures in the Southern Region or other large cities.
Ma Gongping also knew about it, but chose to turn a blind eye.
Having climbed to this level, we still have to give him some face when it comes to social etiquette.
Furthermore, even if these children of business and political figures can use their connections to fish in troubled waters and get a place.
But in the copy, everything is determined by strength, and no country can shake the rules of the dimensional world.
What’s the use of getting a spot if you don’t have the real skills?
When it's time to be eliminated, the copy will show no mercy.
After clearing his throat, Ma Gongping faced the 5,000 players who were auditioned for the God-making Project and tens of thousands of spectators in front of him.
His eyes were serious and he spoke slowly.
The sound was steady and deep, covering the entire square through wireless transmission equipment.
"Everyone, today is the day for the first audition of the God-making Project. We in the Southern Region are honored to be one of the audition venues for this God-making Project."
"The dungeon era has been here for five years. The special profession of 'player' has gradually become one with us humans after five years of development, from being unfamiliar to us at the beginning. It has become an indispensable part of us humans!"
"They have smarter minds and more powerful strength!"
"They are the hope for the future of all of us humans!"
"But, we are developing, and other countries are also making progress. In the five years of development, the players' strength has grown from standing at the D-level starting line to now having developed many high-level players!"
"And all high-level players have only one common goal! To step onto the long steps to godhood and become a god-level player!"
"The importance of god-level players is self-evident. They have become an important indicator of whether countries can defend their territorial sovereignty and whether they can gain a firm foothold on the world stage!"
"It can be said that the number of god-level players will determine the upper limit of our future development as Huaxiu! If we fall behind, we will be beaten! This is the warning that our ancestors have learned from the blood and flesh for thousands of years!"
“Therefore, the National God-making Plan came into being!”
"All players with talent, strength, and potential can participate in each future God-making Plan! If you stand out, you will become the focus of Huaxiu's support and cultivation!"
"The 5,000 players who will be participating in the first batch of the God Creation Plan are elites carefully selected from our Southern Region and the provinces and states under our jurisdiction!"
When the word "elite" was mentioned, the 5,000 players present puffed out their chests with more or less pride.
The entire Southern Territory has a population of 500 million.
Being able to stand out from 500 million people is enough to prove one's excellence.
Ma Gongping glanced at the faces of all the players and spoke word by word.
"Each of you has the potential to become a god-level player!"
"The audition questions for our Southern Region God-making Project this time are quite difficult, but only higher challenges can fully unleash the potential in you!"
"Well, try to prove yourself in the upcoming dungeon!"
As Ma Gongping finished his words, the square erupted in warm applause and cheers.
But soon, the information about the challenge copy appeared on the huge light screen in the center of the square.
The scene quickly became quiet again.
Even the players who were originally full of confidence had complicated expressions after seeing the trial copy.
[S-level exploration dungeon, "Detroit: Become Human"]
[Requirements for completing the dungeon: Please ensure that at least one dungeon protagonist survives to the end. Death at the final outcome is also considered a successful completion! ]
Soon, intermittent chattering sounds began to be heard.
"Oh my god, they're going to create a dungeon this difficult right off the bat? S-level... I've never even entered an A-level dungeon in my life..."
"So you can only sit here and watch instead of standing in the square waiting for a challenge."
"Isn't this the main point? Take a look at the detailed description of the dungeon..."
"Fuck!! Tens of thousands of choices?? Isn't this going to kill me... I feel like my brain is overloaded just by looking at it..."
"It's difficult for us, but there are so many big players here, some of them even have the support of the sixth-level guild, maybe they have some strategies."
"It's hard to say. I just checked the forums and there is no guide for the Detroit dungeon in the entire South Region... I did see a few people complaining about the dungeon being too difficult."
"If you don't understand, just ask. Without a guide, is there really anyone who can pass this?"
"This is just the southern region of the God-making Project Qualifying Tournament... I wonder what level of difficulty will be next..."
Ma Gongping looked around, and occasionally the discussions of the people around him could be heard.
Most of them were complaining that this trial copy was too difficult.
This kind of voice actually made Ma Gongping feel more at ease.
This is a choice I made after careful consideration.
What we want is high difficulty!
Especially for a copy like "Detroit" that has no strategy guide on the market, it can clear out the players who are taking advantage of the situation.
The god-making plan is no joke. If anyone can get involved, and some players with mediocre talents want the Southern Region to allocate more resources to them just because they have good parents, wouldn’t it be a mess if there are too many such people?
Moreover, those who can pass the difficult tasks smoothly are the talents that I like.
Thinking of this, Ma Gongping's gaze swept over the dozens of figures standing at the front of the player team.
These young players are the top priority in this round of trials!
He is the talented player who has the best chance of clearing the level!
Each of them was carefully selected from the famous sixth-level guilds in the Southern Region. Some were even trained to be the next president and had unlimited potential!
In our own Southern Region, we don’t dare to dream of producing a god-level player, but as long as we can produce a seed player for the god-making plan, it will be a great honor.
The status might be raised from the lowest among the four domains, which would bring many benefits.
Collecting his thoughts, Ma Gongping repeated the rules of the "Detroit" copy as a routine.
Afterwards, all participating players present were asked to temporarily leave their original guilds and join the sixth-level guild that the Southern Region had rented for the God-making Project.
The sixth-level guild can share S-level copy cards.
In addition, the sharing requirements have been lowered from hardcore players in the fifth-tier guild to elite players.
Each guild can accommodate 1,000 elite players!
Five guilds can accommodate all the players participating in this round.
After some tidying up, Ma Gongping waved his hand, signaling the start of the trial copy.
Accompanied by the ringing of a huge bell placed in the center of the square.
5,000 players activated the Blood Moon Emblem simultaneously, and all turned into a beam of light and shadow and entered the dungeon!
The huge air light screen above the square also began to display the copy progress of 5,000 players in real time.
In order to protect the privacy of players' information, the outside world has been unable to access the screen inside the S-level copy since then, in order to prevent the leakage of players' strategies.
However, those Southern Region Organization personnel with [Insight] potential outside the field can still use their potential to project the progress in the dungeon onto the screen.
The copy progress of each participating player will be projected as a straight line on the light screen.
Every time players go through a turning point and branch in a copy.
The straight line will split into several other selection lines, which will show the player's current progress summary.
Even if we know their choices, we cannot observe how they reached that step.
For example, I know from watching the game that you choose to go from Street A to Street B, but the spectator has no way of knowing what means of transportation you choose, whether the choice of transportation will affect the plot of the copy, or even whether the choice of going to Street B is correct.
Therefore, even if you want to replicate it, you don’t know where to start.
After the trial began, Ma Gongping took a seat at the front of the stepped plaza.
The presidents of several major sixth-tier guilds, led by the Southern Region, sat next to him.
"In my opinion, the first place in this round of auditions must be your little favorite Lu Qianqian. At only 20 years old, she has S-level strength. She has received an SSS rating once in dungeons, and has received countless S ratings. She has a promising future."
"No, no, Guild Leader Zhanya is too modest. Your guild's Jia Rong is the dark horse player who can win first place. It would be a blessing for our Qianqian to be able to stay in the top ten."
"Who is the player chosen by Luoyue Guild this time? Luo Haoxian? Isn't this a sure bet for the top three?"
"No, no, everyone knows that your Haoyu Guild is the favorite to win this competition? Mo Rou has already broken through to S-level, right?"
"I think..."
The competition had just begun, but the presidents of the major guilds had already started praising each other for their business interests.
They spoke more modestly than each other, but in their hearts they wished that the players from other guilds would be eliminated immediately.
At this moment, Ma Gongping's subordinate came forward and whispered something in his ear.
"Oh? There is such a thing?" After hearing this, Ma Gongping raised his eyebrows, looking a little surprised.
Seeing this, President Kirigakure beside him couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Captain, what happened?"
The other presidents also cast their eyes over.
"It's nothing serious." Ma Gongping waved his hand casually: "Didn't my two quality inspectors go to select players a few days ago? As a result, some minor accidents happened."
This is not a secret. Several presidents learned the news two days ago.
Zhou Yi, a capable general under Ma Gongping, was seriously injured.
It is said that it was caused by a talented player from the City of Sea.
Ma Gongping was very unhappy at first. After all, Zhou Yi was his trusted confidant whom he had trained, and yet he was hurt like this.
This is simply not giving myself face!
However, Zhou Yi did not say much after waking up. He just said that he was a little bit nervous during the competition. He fought with his opponent for thirty to fifty rounds. It was inevitable that he used heavy blows when the fight was going on, and the opponent narrowly won.
Li Hangkong, who went with him, also nodded silently, agreeing with this statement.
Zhou Yi was mainly embarrassed.
No matter how hard he tried, he was an S-level player majoring in strength, but he was vulnerable in front of that player. If this were to get out to others, it would be a disgrace to the Southern Region.
After Ma Gongping learned the reason, he did not intend to investigate further.
When competing or sparring with players of similar strength, it is normal that you may not be able to defeat the opponent immediately.
Besides, Zhou Yi’s strength is not top-notch in the Southern Region.
The presidents of all the major guilds present here are far more powerful than Zhou Yi.
It was not surprising that Zhou Yi was defeated in the City of the Sea. There were always some powerful players in every city.
Of course, if Ma Gongping knew that his confidant had not fought with others for thirty or fifty rounds.
Instead, he almost lost his life just by taking one move from the opponent.
Perhaps, his expression would not be as calm as it is now.
"Just now, our staff conducted a copy proofreading and verification, and searched the entire southern region for players who were challenging the "Detroit" copy." Ma Gongping said again.
"The final result is 5001 people, but the extra person did not participate in our god-making plan this time. Instead, he opened a copy on his own and just happened to collide with us."
One of the presidents immediately guessed something.
"Domain Commander, what you mean is... the extra person is the player who injured Zhou Yi two days ago?"
"Yeah." When mentioning this, Ma Gongping's expression was a little funny: "I contacted the mayor of the City of the Sea two days ago, and wanted to try to contact this player to see if I could invite him to participate in the trial."
"Being able to defeat Zhou Yi means I have already qualified for the competition."
“But I got a rejection.”
The number of spots in the God-making Program is so tight that countless players are scrambling to get a chance.
I personally invited someone, but was rejected?
And it wasn't the boy himself who refused, but the City Lord Fan Yu of the City of Ocean who conveyed the message.
This couldn't help but arouse a little interest in Ma Gong's heart.
"I didn't expect to meet you here again."
"Well, let me take this opportunity to see this kid's true strength."
Upon hearing this, several presidents looked at each other and saw the interest fading in each other's eyes.
Different from the curiosity flowing in Ma Gongping's eyes.
For the presidents of several major guilds.
The player who barely defeated Zhou Yi after a hard battle might be able to stand on his own in a small city, but he can only be considered ordinary in the Southern Region.
If the team's seeded player draws out his trump card, it won't be difficult to kill Zhou Yi on the spot.
It is not a difficult thing, so there is naturally no need to pay attention to it.
Compared to that unknown person in the City of the Sea.
The current dungeon exploration progress of our own players is more worthy of attention.
Several guild presidents looked up at the same time, searching for the seed players of their own guilds among the thousands of pieces of information on the huge light screen in front of them.
————
“Ding~”
A coin was flicked up by the finger, flying rapidly in the air and about to fall.
Xu Mu slapped him and stopped him in mid-air.
Immediately, the coin slipped out from between the fingers and rolled back and forth quickly between the five fingers on the back of the hand, as nimble as a silver fish.
Xu Mu was in an ascending elevator at this time.
In the elevator mirror next to him, Xu Mu saw his own outfit.
The dark blue straight suit and white shirt make him look handsome and stylish.
If there is any difference, it is on the right side of the forehead, at the temple.
There is a circle of light blue LED lights flashing slightly.
This is the logo of the bionic man.
With the increasing development of machine artificial intelligence, the appearance of bionic people is already indistinguishable from that of real people, and the tone of their speech is almost indistinguishable.
In order to make it easier to distinguish, CyberLife, the world's largest bionic company, added a circle of LED lights to the right temple of the bionic man that can detect their emotions.
The hoop is about the diameter of a ring.
When the light is blue, it means the bionic man is functioning normally.
When it is yellow, it means that the bionic man has encountered some special situations and his emotions are fluctuating.
When it is red, it represents a danger signal, the bionic man is facing a difficult and hard to deal with problem, and there is a risk of program crash.
And this outfit Xu Mu was wearing.
This is the outfit of Connor, the first protagonist to appear in "Detroit".
However, the face reflected in the mirror was still Xu Mu's extremely handsome face.
"I should just play the role of Connor instead of completely becoming him." Xu Mu thought to himself and sorted it out in his mind.
In the game, Connor is the latest RK800 police detective-type android developed by Cyber-Life.
The value of his development lies in serving human police, enabling them to solve various cases more quickly.
Different from the relatively primitive detective methods of humans.
The android
This chip, which is connected to the global network, can analyze the category, model and purpose of various objects in a very short time.
It can also calculate the object's original trajectory through a series of data such as the object's tilt angle, collision degree, etc.
As long as enough clues are collected, one can even reconstruct the entire process of a crime in one's mind, without any error!
It can be said that after the emergence of Connor, the bionic man.
The Detroit Police Department's crime-solving speed has been greatly improved, and almost any case can be solved on the spot!
certainly.
Even such an outstanding bionic detective cannot complete all cases.
For example, a case that involves a choice about human nature.
"bite!"
A warning sound will sound as the elevator arrives at the corresponding floor.
Xu Mu took a big step forward.
What you see is a large open-plan apartment with luxurious decoration.
This home, which could accommodate four people, is now overcrowded.
Members of the IBF Federal Bureau of Investigation filled every corner of the house, investigating everywhere.
They were heavily armed, wearing bulletproof vests and carrying submachine guns.
The moment he saw Xu Mu coming out of the elevator, he took out the intercom to inform his boss.
"Captain Allen, the negotiation experts are here!"
Soon, an irritated scolding voice came from the other end of the intercom.
"I don't care about any bullshit negotiation experts! The Detroit Police Department is a bunch of useless bastards. They can't even handle such a small matter. They need our Confederate Bureau of Investigation to take action."
Xu Mu ignored the noise on the intercom and strode into the house.
Just after taking two steps, I saw two IBF special police officers supporting a woman with tears streaming down her face walking towards me.
The moment she saw Xu Mu, the woman broke free from the two special police officers, rushed to Xu Mu with an excited look, and grabbed his arms with both hands.
"Please! Officer! Please save my daughter! That damned android actually held my daughter hostage! CyberLife promised me when I signed the contract that the android would never do anything to harm humans!! But why did this happen?! My daughter..."
The woman cried , but the next second.
She saw the flashing LED light on Xu Mu's temple.
Suddenly, the woman's expression changed drastically, from asking for help to horror, and then she angrily roared at the two special police officers behind her.
"Your so-called negotiation expert is just a android?"
"You're going to put my daughter's life in the hands of a android??"
"You bunch of devils!! Fuck you! Are you going to use my daughter's life to experiment on this android who only knows how to follow program instructions???"
"If my daughter dies, you will go to hell too!!"
Xu Mu straightened his wrinkled collar expressionlessly and watched the two special police officers carry the crying woman away.
The moment he turned around, Xu Mu suddenly realized.
The copy of "Detroit" is much more difficult than the game itself!
Because the degree of freedom in the real-life copy is much higher!
Different from the routes that have been set in the game.
If he wanted to, he could even turn around and take the elevator away, refusing this mission.
If you encounter a player with a bad temper, he might slap this annoying woman.
These were not available as options in previous games.
But in the real-life copy.
How to operate is entirely up to the player!
In this way, there will be more variables in the copy!
Players without a strategy will not know which option is the one that will allow them to successfully complete the dungeon.
However, Xu Mu, who knew the plot flow, naturally understood that the current task was to find Captain Allen of IBF and obtain permission from him to investigate the house.
After passing through the living room, Xu Mu came to the master bedroom with ease and saw Allen who was talking to the Detroit Police Department.
"I think you are crazy!"
"You actually gave the right of choice to a android?"
"What is he? A realistic Lego made of a bunch of squishy silicone and metal compounds?"
"Alan, calm down first. 'A' is an outstanding detective android who has helped our Detroit Police Department solve countless cases. We have reason to believe that he can handle this task." An explanation came from the other end of the phone.
"This is not an ordinary case. It's a fucking brain-damaged android who has killed his employer! And he also hung the little girl outside the open-air balcony! Do you know how high this place is? The 50th floor!!"
"That's enough! That's enough! I don't want to hear any of your explanations. I will only give him 15 minutes at most."
Alan just turned around after hanging up the phone angrily.
Then he saw Xu Mu standing behind him.
"You heard it too, right? 15 minutes." He stretched out his finger and tapped Xu Mu's chest hard.
"If you can't convince that broken piece of junk outside who is as broken as you are within 15 minutes, we at IBF will personally come to the rescue."
After that, he took the intercom from his shoulder and said, "All units, get in position, set up your guns for me, and the helicopter can come over."
He looked at Xu Mu with disdain: "I would never place my hope on a bionic man who only knows how to follow orders."
At the same time, the copy reminder sound popped up in my mind.
[You have unlocked the permission to investigate the house! ]
[If you fail to rescue the little girl from the crashed android within 15 minutes, the dungeon will fail! You will be punished for failure!]
Xu Mu looked around the room.
The body of a middle-aged man was lying next to the sofa. There were signs of a fight at the scene. In an inconspicuous corner, there was a tablet computer.
Today's dinner was still being cooked on the restaurant's induction cooker, but the pot was clearly burnt.
The news of this case was being broadcast on the wide-open TV screen.
The reporter was riding in a helicopter, with the camera pointed at the runaway android who had held the little girl hostage outside the open-air balcony. He was excitedly explaining the current situation to the people of Detroit.
In addition, the children's bedroom next to him was emitting orange-red lights, and there were many scattered things in it that needed to be investigated.
15 minutes may not seem like a long time, but it takes a lot of time to find the reason why the android went berserk and convince him among so many messy clues without any hints.
This is an extremely difficult test for players.
A wrong choice may lead to the complete collapse of the entire copy.
But regarding Connor's plot line, Xu Mu had already recalled all the details after two days of sorting out.
The bionic man who held the little girl hostage outside the open-air balcony is named Daniel.
They are a type of androids that specialize in caring for/serving children.
After being purchased by this family, he has been taking good care of the little girl.
The little girl also liked Daniel very much and once called him the best bionic man in the world.
But the good times didn't last long. During an accidental mischief by the little girl, Daniel was unfortunately damaged and some parts of the machine malfunctioned.
Therefore, the father of the family decided to replace Daniel and buy another newer bionic model.
When Daniel accidentally discovered this information, he began to fear that he would be sent to "CyberLife" to restore the factory settings, and all the good memories he had would be gone.
He chose to fight.
He stole a gun from his father's bedroom, and during a heated argument, his program instructions collapsed and he shot and killed his father.
They took the little girl hostage and took her to the open-air balcony on the 50th floor.
This is the whole truth of the whole plot. The clues are hidden in every corner of this room. Players need to carefully sort them out, and then use Connor's scenario simulation ability to restore the entire case as much as possible. After mastering the key information, they can lobby Daniel.
For Xu Mu, looking for clues is meaningless.
He walked straight to the living room, where a dead IBF special police officer was lying.
He was also shot to death by the emotionally agitated Daniel during the fight just now.
Xu Mu squatted down, seemingly investigating the dead IBF special police officer.
But his eyes slid under the table next to him.
There, lying a small police pistol.
According to the programming settings of bionic humans, they are not allowed to possess any weapons that can harm humans.
Under the pretext of investigation, Xu Mu bypassed several special police officers, bent down and quickly picked up the gun, and put it into his pocket without making a sound.
The copy reminder sound popped up instantly.
[You have unlocked a development that is beneficial to the plot! ]
After putting away the gun, Xu Mu did not stop and walked straight to the open-air balcony.
When passing by Allen, he was stopped.
"What are you doing? Are you sure you want to lobby that damn bionic man now? Have you investigated the clues in the house?" Alan stared at Xu Mu with deep doubt in his eyes.
From the 15-minute deadline he gave Xu Mu just now to now, only a total of time has passed...
Half a minute!
He actually chose to talk to Daniel?
The Detroit police are really a bunch of lunatics! They actually believed in this completely mindless bionic man!
Xu Mu knew that this was also the copy's last warning to the players.
Not everyone has a strategy like me.
If you don't understand the whole story, don't rush up to talk to Daniel.
Faced with Daniel's questions and knowing nothing about them, I just waited for the copy to be sent to me.
"Of course. I am a bionic man, sir. I can investigate information much faster than you can. Please trust my expertise." Xu Mu said with a calm smile, a hint of sarcasm in his smile.
Alan looked at Xu Mu's smile and was stunned.
Inexplicably, he felt as if he was talking to a real human being...
That mocking expression just now, would an android have such an emotion?
You are being laughed at by a bionic man for not being able to do your job?
While Alan was distracted, Xu Mu had already opened the curtains and walked straight to the open-air balcony.
"Captain Allen?" The special police officer next to him asked if they needed to stop him.
"Forget it, he's already out." Allen shook his head and picked up the intercom again: "Attention all units, lock on Daniel! If there is any accident, just shoot!"
He didn't believe Xu Mu from the bottom of his heart.
There is also a psychologist among his own IBF entourage, who has been in the profession for ten years and is quite authoritative.
But, in the previous moment, he was already dead.
And this bionic man, even if he is a detective type, is just a piece of iron man created by relying on high-tech data. Can he be more useful than a human psychologist with deep thoughts?
At the same time, Xu Mu came to the balcony.
The balcony was very windy.
There were several tables, chairs and parasols, and a small swimming pool nearby. There was a floating dead body in the pool, belonging to a special police officer of IBF.
On the left side, there was a special police officer lying in the dark in the small flower bed, bleeding profusely from a wrist injury, wailing softly.
Not far away, next to the broken glass railing, Daniel stood on the edge of the rooftop holding the little girl, with most of his feet hanging in the air.
"Bang!!"
Just at the moment Xu Mu walked out.
Daniel shot at Xu Mu!
This is exactly the same plot as the original!
Xu Mu was already prepared and he slightly turned his body when he walked out, so the shot missed.
He shouted to Daniel.
"Daniel! I'm android detective 'A'!"
"You...you know me?" Daniel looked at Xu Mu in surprise: "We have never met, why do you know me?"
His head was fixed on a floating prompt that only players could see.
[The bionic man is extremely emotional, the mission success rate is 30%! ]
"I am also a bionic man, just like you! I understand how you feel!" Xu Mu responded loudly, and the strong wind on the rooftop blew his voice to Daniel's ears.
Daniel's expression was confused for a moment.
[The bionic man is in extremely abnormal mood, the mission success rate is 35%! ]
"Don't lie! You are in the same group with these humans!" But soon, he regained his ruthlessness and put the muzzle of the gun against the little girl's forehead: "Don't come any closer! Otherwise I will shoot!"
Xu Mu suddenly changed the subject.
"There's a wounded SWAT officer here, I need to bandage him! Otherwise he'll die!"
"I don't care about the lives of these humans! I'm warning you! Don't come any closer! I will shoot!"
"It's up to you. I'm just a bionic man anyway." After saying this, Xu Mu walked towards the small flower bed on his left hand and squatted down to bandage the injured special police.
Daniel watched everything in front of him with a gun, and there was a little more .
[The bionic man's emotions are abnormal, the mission success rate is 50%! ]
This scene was also seen by Allen who was hiding behind the bunker.
There was also a hint of confusion in Allen's eyes.
this……
Is this really something a bionic person would do?
In his understanding, bionic people only obey program instructions and have no ability to adapt.
The program instructions of this bionic man in front of us should be to rescue the hostages.
Then, he should ignore anyone except the hostages.
Soon, Xu Mu finished bandaging the injured special police.
"Thank you." The special police groaned and squeezed out a hint of thanks from between his teeth.
Xu Mu was calculating the route in his mind.
This move seems to be bandaging the special police.
In fact, it is a roundabout way.
At this moment, he was actually closer to Daniel than before!
Under normal circumstances, I can't go any closer, otherwise it will trigger Daniel's emotional breakdown!
But using the excuse of bandaging would make Daniel relax his vigilance a little.
Then he slowly stood up and spoke loudly to Daniel again.
"I know you had a great relationship with Emma! You felt like she betrayed you, but she was just a little girl and she didn't do anything wrong."
"She lied to me!" Daniel said in agony, "She said I was the best bionic man in the world!!"
"But in the end, I'm just a toy! A toy that can be replaced at will after it's used up!!"
[The bionic man's emotions are abnormal, the mission success rate is 60%! ↑]
Under Xu Mu's guidance, Daniel had fallen into his memories and did not notice that Xu Mu was getting closer and closer to him.
"Listen to me, I understand how you feel. I understand the pain of being abandoned." Xu Mu continued to persuade.
"I can agree to your request. I can help you find a car and get you out of here."
"You will not be sent into a CyberLife reset."
“You can keep your thoughts, keep your memories.”
"You can live in this world like a normal person!"
"Really...really?" Seeing that Xu Mu really said everything he had imagined, Daniel's eyes showed a look of relief.
What Xu Mu said just now, he understands himself.
He wasn't lying, he really knew what he wanted!!
[The bionic man is calm, and the mission success rate is 90%! ↑]
"Then how can I trust you?"
Xu Mu waved at the helicopter in the air, signaling them to leave.
The helicopter crew contacted Captain Allen for advice.
Perhaps it was Xu Mu's action of saving the injured special police just now that changed Alan's mind.
He agreed to Xu Mu's request.
Soon, the helicopter hovering overhead was moved away and the noisy roar disappeared.
"You see, I have this ability." Xu Mu smiled at Daniel.
"Come on, put the child down. If you really kill her, it will only make things worse, won't it?"
Finally, Daniel let down his last bit of guard.
[The bionic man is in a normal mood, and the mission success rate is 100%! ]
And just at the moment when Daniel put the little girl back on the roof.
Xu Mu took out the gun hidden in his arms and shot Daniel in the forehead with an expressionless face.
"Bang!!!"
The muzzle of the gun was spewing flames!
"You...why..." With a complicated expression on Daniel's face, his whole body leaned backwards and fell straight down from the roof!
Xu Mu, who was familiar with the entire plot process, knew it clearly.
Even if he didn't fire this shot, the IBF members behind him would shoot the moment the little girl was put down!
This is a fact that cannot be changed.
Even if Daniel was not a bionic man but a real human being, he would have died on the spot today.
The only variable is the life and death of the little girl.
Rather than leaving the direction of the copy to this bunch of useless IBFs, it would be much safer to take action myself.
Whoosh!
At this moment, all the special police hiding behind the bunker rushed up and occupied the rooftop.
Alan walked to the edge of the rooftop and confirmed that Daniel had fallen and the threat had been lifted.
He looked at the watch on his wrist again.
His expression froze instantly!
He gave Xu Mu a 15-minute countdown.
Xu Mu sorted out the clues, found the answer, persuaded Daniel, and rescued the little girl.
The total cost was...
2 and a half minutes!!
You know, our IBF personnel have already wasted an hour here!
Not only did two special police officers die.
Even an experienced psychologist was unable to persuade Daniel and died instead.
Everyone was helpless with Daniel's abnormal mood.
But now, this bionic man only took two and a half minutes to accomplish what his group of people had failed to do without any damage! !
Moreover, during these two and a half minutes, he also took the time to give his special police officers a simple bandage...
Everything was so calm, as if he knew what was going to happen next...
Even when shooting, his decisiveness was far superior to that of humans...
Alan also thought about what would happen if it was him.
Can you really be that decisive?
Is this... really something a bionic man can do?
"You..." Alan's Adam's apple moved.
"I have completed my mission, sir. Now it's your turn to clean up the mess." Xu Mu slammed the gun in his hand heavily on Allen's chest, turned around and left without looking back.
Only Alan was left standing in the wind, staring blankly in the direction where Xu Mu left.
This bionic man...
It seems a bit too strong...
It's completely different from the models I've encountered before!
