Volume 1 Crime and Punishment in Fog City Chapter 21 Serenade
"My Lord, you don't sleep..."
"Mature people are like this. If they have a job, they will continue to work without sleep. But it doesn't matter to you. Children should go to bed early to grow up. Do you want some candy?"
"My Lord, you can't always spoil me like this. If I develop any aristocratic disease in the future, it will definitely be caused by your spoiling... huh..."
"Eating some candy is not a noble disease. Go back to sleep. I'll take care of the work first. I'll go to the camp with you tomorrow."
"Well... then good night, sir... you must take care of yourself..."
"I know. Go to bed."
"Yes, I understand."
"Good boy, good boy ..."
Watching the yawning little girl walk into the room and finally close the door, the smile on Li Lin's face gradually calmed down. He took out his notebook again, picked up a carbon pen and started planning according to the map of the girl's home.
Obviously, this kind of all-round stealth game cannot be treated with common sense. If you learn from Connor or other so-called assassin games and enter the game invincible, you will probably be melted alive by the high-temperature steam before you take five steps out. That feeling is definitely not pleasant, and Li Lin does not want to experience it a second time. So he has to find a relatively safe method.
That is to disguise yourself as an ordinary citizen and carry out a comprehensive assassination plan by adjusting time and direction.
Li Lin has always believed that an assassin cannot just rush in directly.
"It's time to go out."
Looking at the location marked on the map, Li Lin reached out and grabbed it and stuffed it into the storage space, then pulled up his collar and walked out the door.
Facing the steel city that was still crowded with people and seemed to have no concept of time, Li Lin's respirators on both sides of his cheeks blew out two streams of white smoke, and his figure disappeared into the shadow of the house. When he came out, he had changed into a different look, walking on the road without a sense of security.
But in fact, this is the most effective way. The guards will catch and follow those who look timid and suspicious, but no one will even look at ordinary people passing by. Unless it is a mandatory body search of all guards. But even if it is done that way, Li Lin is not afraid at all. After all, as a player, it is inevitable to have a storage space. Once the murder weapon and the equipment are placed in it, no one will know where you hide the things.
"The third floor..."
Turn left and go to the third fork to take the elevator down...
Walking along the curved street built around the entire celestial city, Li Lin looked at the signposts on the street and quickly found the location he wanted to arrive at.
The closed celestial city is roughly divided into five layers. The first layer is where the Babel Tower stairs are located, responsible for transporting countless materials and personnel. The second layer is the residential area for employees and ordinary people, and the environment is the best. The third layer is the light industrial area, responsible for the production of food and the manufacture of other light industrial products. The fourth layer is the heavily polluted heavy industrial area, and the fifth layer is naturally the excretion and circulation area.
Under this celestial city is a mine with an unknown history. Perhaps it is directly connected to the center of the earth. Countless mine tunnels are winding back and forth in and out of the entire vertical small world, spiraling to expand the area of the entire city and broaden the traces of the city. But it is an indisputable fact that they live on an abyss.
And strangely, as if they had considered this issue long ago, the entire celestial city was built with countless triangular structures and interlaced hollow pipes. Although it looked extremely dangerous, as long as the entire city did not slip and fall into the abyss, there was basically no need to worry about any structural collapse. And because of the sharp-edged structure and lines, even the mentally retarded underground residents would subconsciously divide the entire celestial city into several industrial zones, operating in an orderly manner.
"… provided that it is well maintained."
After taking a look at the sign, Li Lin squeezed into the elevator under the dissatisfied gazes of a group of people.
Air circulation system, water circulation system, ecological life support device, hemp industrial belt, mushroom producing area, core traffic transfer channel, command post, power plant, fuel processing plant, and most importantly, the Tower of Babel.
These places are relatively isolated from each other, ensuring that any problems in any place will not affect the operation of other structures. However, relative isolation means that in the entire Tianqiu City, this city in the air supported by steel bars and large pipes, countless redundant parts and cumbersome parts are used to embellish new gravity points to maintain balance. In other words, the structure of each area is relatively fragile. Of course, it is not the level that can be broken by a punch, but every structure is precarious if analyzed carefully.
The structural diagram was naturally found in the little girl's home. Her mother was a senior engineer in charge of the engineering structure of the entire city. As a result, she was hit and killed by a vehicle guided by a crooked pipe. It was a very bizarre but natural accident. And few people in the entire Tianqiu City could understand the structural diagram. Li Lin was really grateful for these people's stupid settings . Otherwise, such things would be protected by people in the Middle Ages. But now Li Lin can easily use these structural diagrams to find those places where the structure is weak, and then start to arrange the traps and devices he needs.
"Gravity, what a great discovery..."
He arched his body and crawled into the forest-like pipes. His age determination and observation skills once again came in handy, guiding Li Lin to the structures that had been maintained before.
As for the guarding problem, it was even easier. As long as they searched along the pipeline for a few nights, even a monkey would know where there were people and where there were no people. If the operation was done properly, the gravity of the module itself could be used to collapse the area. As for the corrosive liquid, the calculated time and the mechanism, it would naturally rely on acid and saliva. The experiments over the past few nights proved that acid and saliva were not as useless as he had imagined.
Rather, the corrosion efficiency was surprisingly high. After all, it was acid saliva that could be used on the battlefield, corroding the steel plates and structural modules at a speed comparable to the evaporation of snowflakes under the sun.
"An alarm clock, electricity, explosives, and then a bottle of acid... this is the last batch."
The chance to win is right before our eyes.
After tying the glass bottle together with a detonator and tape, and then plugging in wires and connecting it to the brain, Li Lin looked at the simple explosive device and nodded with satisfaction.
Assassination does not necessarily mean just killing some people, but also making a certain area disappear. For example, if the command system of this celestial city falls into the abyss forever, it can obviously be counted as murder.
Of course, it is impossible to achieve all this in just a few days. But it is not a big problem to shock the people of the whole city or cause mass panic. And all this is to cover up the raid on the headquarters at the same time. Under the guidance of the girl, they will arrive at the command post tomorrow. Li Lin never believed that his luck could be perfect and kill everyone without anyone noticing.
Then we can only give them a bigger and more terrifying future so that they can temporarily divert their attention.
For example, the entire city falls into the abyss.
"Forty-two load-bearing columns and seven transportation pipelines simultaneously collapsed within an hour... This should have panicked them for a while. It was worth the saliva I coughed up for three days."
Later I just rinsed my mouth with water. It should be effective, right?
After all, it was produced by the evil god.
Li Lin used tape to stick the palm-sized clock and the glass bottle connected to each other on the huge load-bearing column. He played with the red button in his hand and smiled slightly at the criss-crossing steel sky above.
So the games that can make big news are fun... Who in ordinary games will give you a chance to blow up the whole city by yourself? If you find time to really blow up the whole city, if you don't get some good stuff after launching the blood sacrifice, you really have to complain to the customer service. Although the skills given so far are pretty powerful.
"Log off and go to sleep. We'll talk about it tomorrow."
Regain your energy.
After looking at his bright red watch, Li Lin walked back to the girl's home along the road, found a safe place and logged out of the game directly.
