"Yeah, everyone has heard that the gang in this world is an organization called the 'Necromancer Gang'. It is said that the boss can summon ghosts and curses to kill enemies... Haha, what a joke! It's 2077 and there are still people who believe in ghosts!"
Feng Xue casually threw the two mohawks to the wall, chatting with the barrage in the live broadcast room, and walked in the direction pointed by the gangster.
In this world, at least in Asgre City, every urban area has more or less lawless zones.
Although it is called so, it is not really impossible. In essence, this should be regarded as a private area with "autonomous" rights. To put it simply, it is a bit like private land in Colombia.
In short, it is an "extension" of the law that "private property is sacrosanct" by purchasing several nearby floors and streets, and then transforming them into what is legally considered a "private residence."
"area.
In other words, entering this area is tantamount to giving up the rights of a "law-abiding citizen" and becoming an "intruder."
Therefore, in this area, except for the owner of the territory and the bodyguards and guests who are expressly allowed to enter by the other party, killing or being killed (Colombia allows shooting and killing people who enter the room without permission, in other words, it can be misinterpreted as acting bravely), use control
Weapons (the difference between shooting at a shooting range and shooting on the street), operating without a license...etc. are all allowed.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that everyone can do this. If you don’t have enough strength and rely on a few properties to do this, let’s not talk about whether you can afford a team of lawyers to help you deal with all the twists and turns here.
, first of all, those 'invaders' will definitely rob you clean first.
As for the reason for the existence of this kind of place? Of course it is to make money!
The so-called things that make money are written in the code. After bypassing the law, there are more money-making businesses. However, precisely because of the identity of the intruder, the "house owner" cannot directly deal with the intruder, so he cannot bring the intruder with him.
The managers must also be intruders, that is, gangsters in the lawless zone.
This kind of practice was initially used to circumvent the law, but as time went by, when capital noticed this, this mode of operation became a common practice, so that now, being unable to live in this world has become a kind of practice.
common sense.
As for whether Feng Xue pushing the gangster as the "operator" will arouse the resentment of the house owner, first of all, according to the conventions of this world, the house owner does not interfere in the fight between the intruders in the house, because no matter who wins,
His income will not be less.
Secondly, Feng Xue is currently broadcasting live. As long as the traffic is sufficient and the turnover is high, the media company will naturally help him resist the pressure of the house owner.
After all, although those who engage in lawless zones are considered to be of the upper class, in terms of size, these loopholes are still far behind those who set the rules.
…
[Hiss—it’s actually a Titan 7 series. Isn’t this an active military equipment? This lawless zone is much more exciting than the one that Fire Wolf destroyed!]
[No, the person soliciting customers at Chaka’s door just now was a sponge android! Hasn’t the production of this meow been banned? 】
[Fuck, is he the legendary and ultimate entertainment android that you can’t live without for the rest of your life?]
[Hey, hey, I seem to have seen something very bad. Isn’t the Lawless Zone just for black boxing, gunfights, etc.? 】
[I told you that Huolang’s live broadcast was fake. How can the Lawless Zone be so authentic! This is the real Lawless Zone! 】
【How dare you talk about my Fire Wolf brother!】
[The anchor is really not afraid of death!]
…
As Feng Xue passed by each store, the number of barrages in the live broadcast room also increased rapidly. Coupled with a round of rewards from his own account from time to time, the number of online viewers has exceeded the 10 million mark.
Of course, the vast majority of them should be fake fans, but according to the information Feng Xue obtained online, there should still be two or three hundred thousand.
What I have to say is that people in the cyber world view are really good at playing. Even without entering the store, just taking a glance at the door, Feng Xue felt that his world view was impacted.
"It's too early for me to have this kind of entertainment." Feng Xue shook her head and looked away from the demonstration video at the door of the multi-neural chain Chaka, and finally arrived at her destination this time.
A bar that doesn't look too tall, with a blue-purple neon sign hanging at the door, called "Soul Thriller".
The guard at the door was a two-meter-tall strong man who looked a bit like Street Fighter. When he saw Feng Xue coming, he put his hands on his hips and said when Feng Xue was still about ten meters away from the door:
"Our boss is booking the whole place today. If you want to drink, go somewhere else!"
"Well, you're so polite, I'm too embarrassed to hit you." Feng Xue was stunned by the words of the strong man in front of her, and gave a cute reply in a show-like atmosphere, which caused a burst of laughter in the live broadcast room.
"Are you here to cause trouble?" The strong man finally realized something. Looking at Shidunzi held in Feng Xue's arms, several black nozzles on his shoulders suddenly spewed out a burst of hot air.
This is not to say that his prosthetic body is steam-powered. In fact, it is a specially installed aura plug-in. Simply put, it allows you to have more boss aura when you want to hit someone.
"Well, I'm going to live broadcast today to break through the illegal zone, and call out all of you who can fight." Feng Xue's tone was flat and a little cute, which immediately caused a climax in the live broadcast room. However, the strong man was obviously attracted by this kind of thing.
Enraged by the nonchalant provocation, the electromagnetic muscle bundles began to operate, and his whole body expanded rapidly.
"If you are here to die, then I will help you!"
[It is Constantine V-12 type power system prosthetic body, with a power output of nearly two tons! 】
The barrage of the popular science boss was drowned out by the barrage of people who were just watching the fun. However, Feng Xue had no intention of fighting. Instead, she grabbed the base of the stone pier with one hand and threw the stone pier with a posture like throwing a bowling ball.
Get out.
The stone pillars made of foam rolled forward. The strong man who had already arrived in front of Feng Xue suddenly froze when he saw it.
Although with his degree of transformation, such a stone pillar would at most cause some deformation to the armor, but at this moment, both his own wishes and the auxiliary computing program in his brain were giving wrong instructions at the same time.
.
There was a loud crashing sound, but the stone pillar was still rolling forward. However, to Feng Xue's surprise, the electronic door that was supposed to block the stone pillar ignored the humanoid recognition software and automatically closed before the stone pillar approached.
The door opened.
"Fuck! Can this thing even affect machinery?"
Feng Xue recalled Shi Dunzi's remarks again, and realized that what this thing said was "'No one' dares to block the path of this thing"!
Yes, it’s not “no one”!
Don't you just make generalizations?
I don’t deny that there are professions that are not liked because they are not respectable, have no job prospects, and do not make money. But on the other hand, if I educate you since childhood that this profession is good, will you like it?
You said that cleaners are not liked because of education, and you said that you have seen children wanting to be cleaners, but this obviously ignores the psychological and physical aversion to dirt, as well as the child's lack of understanding of the profession.
There is a puddle of vomit in front of you. Even if you have been taught that the cleaning profession is worthy of love since childhood, your physiological function will still tell you that this stuff smells disgusting and looks disgusting, unless you directly adjust his body to like the smell.
.
Of course, you can block his access to information, decide what everyone is going to do from birth, and then not allow anyone to have access except the knowledge required for this matter. But this kind of caste system is stronger than cyberpunk capitalism.
Where to go?
And then there’s that person who “always finds someone who wants to do this”…
As I said before, just because you like politics doesn't mean you are suitable for running a country, and just because you like music doesn't necessarily mean you are suitable for composing unless you can edit your talents. Okay, it's back to the caste system again.
In the final analysis, the essence of cyberpunk is that the spiritual construction has not kept up with technological progress and the expansion of capital. It is true, but please don’t think that as long as the spiritual construction keeps up, everyone can do what they like, and don’t feel that it is necessary to be interested.
Can be done well.
There are always things that are not liked that need to be done by someone. There are also things that cannot be left to people who like it.
You can despise the civilizational structure of cyberpunk, but at least the structure of the worldview is logical.
