Chapter 258 Seems like an old friend is here(1/2)
There is no Black Blood Gang, only Bai Ye and Ilsa, so this place is actually safer.
The two of them rested in the hall to avoid any further accidents.
After so many things, they couldn't sleep anymore.
"Cyber Church...have you ever heard of this organization?"
Bai Ye looked at Ilsa and asked.
Ilsa is well-informed and has information sources from the Su family. She has a lot of knowledge that ordinary people cannot get. What clues might she have?
Ilsa shook her head: "I've never heard of it..."
"Since Night City and players became known, many strange organizations have appeared in the Federation. These organizations have different methods and purposes. This so-called Cyber Church should be one of them."
"And an organization like this doesn't have just one name. It's possible that next time we meet them, they won't be called Cyber Church."
Ilsa speculated based on her own experience.
The emergence of Night City and player power has brought so many changes to the entire society. So much so that this strange organization has no manpower to supervise and deal with it.
Organizations like the General Services Administration run around like firefighters. However, they often fail to complete their tasks.
Regarding the Cyber Church, we can only wait until they find a stable and safe place to live before making any plans.
At this time, they still didn't know what was waiting for them ahead.
After the chaos in Hongcheng, it is not certain whether there will be an investigation by the General Services Administration outside.
Also, it is unknown whether they can enter the new city. There are too many refugees in Hongcheng. The nearby cities may not be able to accommodate such an influx of people at once.
In short, they still have many difficulties to solve.
Bai Ye and Ilsa discussed what to do tomorrow.
"Let's keep moving forward. If we can find a place to rest in the middle, it's best to resupply. If we can't find it, we can only follow the map as much as possible. Try to enter the nearest city."
Bai Ye said to Ilsa.
Ilsa nodded in agreement.
There is no other way at this time.
The two of them were discussing and preparing to take a quick rest. Suddenly, Baiye's fully automatic turret sounded an alarm.
"what happened?"
Bai Ye immediately became alert.
Could it be that the mysterious man from the Cyber Church just now hasn’t given up yet and has recruited help from the Cyber Church from nearby?
He and Ilsa took action immediately, left the tavern hall and came to the room on the second floor.
In this room on a white night, you can look out and see almost everything outside the tavern. The view is very good. It is a perfect spot for investigation.
The two looked into the distance. Not far away, two people slowly walked over.
They looked around and soon noticed the tavern after entering Blackwater Town.
The lights were on in the tavern, and there were a lot of signs of fighting. It was extremely conspicuous.
The two of them walked slowly towards the tavern.
"It's impossible for so many travelers to pass by on this road." Bai Ye said in a deep voice: "These two people are probably sent by the Cyber Church to attack us!"
"It's really haunting!"
Ilsa also agreed: "The Black Blood Gang and I have been here all day, and there is no one on the road."
"Anyone who enters here at such a late hour must have ulterior motives."
Bai Ye and Bai Ye were prepared to take action immediately if the other party showed anything amiss.
However, when the lights of the tavern shone on their faces, Bai Ye was stunned.
He actually knew one of them.
Tang Mingyuan!
How could this president of Huinuo Biotechnology, who has a high social status, come to a place like Blackwater Town at this time?
Has he also joined the Cyber Church?
Thinking of this, Bai Ye couldn't help but wonder. What kind of magic power does this Cyber Church have that can draw so many people into their midst?
Forget about the people from the Black Blood Gang, Tang Mingyuan knows everything about Cyber Wanderer! He built the Utopia City by himself, how could he naively think that cyberspace is a beautiful place?
It’s unreasonable no matter how you say it!
The person next to Tang Mingyuan also looked familiar to Bai Ye. He was an assistant who had been with Tang Mingyuan all year round.
"Tang Mingyuan...how could it be him?"
Ilsa also looked puzzled.
Things in front of me became strange again.
If Tang Mingyuan is a member of the Cyberspace Church, it is unreasonable. Tang Mingyuan's status does not seem like someone who would be deceived by something like the Cyberspace Church. He is also familiar with cyberspace affairs. The mysterious man just now
That statement would definitely not be able to deceive him.
If he is not from the Cyber Church, why did he come to Blackwater Town so late?
Bai Ye and Ilsa decided to stand still.
Tang Mingyuan and his assistant walked near the tavern, and they looked inside tentatively.
"The lights are bright, but there seems to be no one. There are signs of fighting around, which feels a bit unreliable," the assistant said.
Tang Mingyuan nodded: "You're right... I feel like this town has a weird atmosphere. Let's get out of here."
"President, it's too late. Under such circumstances, it is very dangerous for us to return to Hongcheng. No one knows what the situation is in Hongcheng now." The assistant persuaded: "Let's find a place to repair it.
."
"Just stay vigilant. It's much safer than rushing in the dark and entering a city at war."
After the assistant's strong persuasion, Tang Mingyuan seemed to obey his advice.
"Okay. I'm waiting for you in the tavern now. You can drive in quickly."
Tang Mingyuan said a little uneasily.
The assistant agreed and hurried out.
Bai Ye and Ilsa looked at each other.
Judging from their words and deeds, it seems that Tang Mingyuan and the others are not members of the Cyber Church.
However, we do not rule out the possibility of them acting.
"Let's go down and have some contact."
Think about it for a while and say.
His idea was very clear: whether he wanted to leave or stay here, he would definitely have to face Tang Mingyuan and his assistant.
You may be able to get some information by reaching out proactively.
Even if he had to fight, Bai Ye would not be afraid at all.
Ilsa said: "Tang Mingyuan definitely doesn't recognize us in our current state. Should we become an old man and contact him?"
Bai Ye almost forgot this.
When they came into contact with Tang Mingyuan, they were all elderly people. Peter Pan was the person Tang Mingyuan was familiar with.
Tang Mingyuan must not know Bai Ye and Ilsa in front of him at all.
Bai Ye thought for a moment: "That's it. If a battle breaks out, this state will be more convenient."
What he didn't say was that this could also test Tang Mingyuan's state.
If Tang Mingyuan was influenced by the Cyber Church, he might reveal some flaws when he saw the two of them.
The two of them hurried downstairs.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Tang Mingyuan, who had just sat down in the tavern, was startled. He quickly stood up and saw a man and a woman coming downstairs. He immediately arranged his clothes.
"Hello, you two! I am a tourist passing by. I saw the lights were still on in the pub, so I walked in without any intention. Please don't get me wrong."
Tang Mingyuan quickly explained and took the initiative to introduce himself.
Bai Ye stared at Tang Mingyuan carefully, not seeing anything wrong in his eyes.
Ilsa smiled and said: "Don't be nervous. We are also travelers passing through here, and our experiences are similar to yours."
Tang Mingyuan was stunned: "So, don't you know the owner of this place?"
Ilsa replied: "I don't know. When we came in, we found that there was no one in the whole town, and we were a little worried. But it was getting late, so we had no choice but to rest here. We planned to leave early tomorrow morning.
"
Tang Mingyuan echoed again and again: "That's right! I am like that too."
