Overturned Tower
Page 254
Instead, there are neon signs everywhere.
Red, purple, green, pink, blue...
In the dim streets and alleys, these signboards shined as best they could, exuding a dazzling glow.
Either extremely strong contrasting colors, or high-frequency flickering, or flashing to dazzling lights;
As well as the obscene advertisements on the large screen; and the startling and brainwashing advertisements that are played repeatedly with Tuhai music.
It is a poor means of advertising just to attract the attention of others, even at the expense of disturbing the people, so that all kinds of streamers are reflected on the faces of passers-by, turning them into different colors, and even constantly changing.
The seductive crooning sounds accompanied by canned laughter, and the sensational saxophone and the vibrant electronic music disrupt the atmosphere formed by each other.
The crappy comedian on the left screen looks like a clown, wearing a suit one size too big, saying hello to his girlfriend's parents in a stuttering voice, and at the same time, stuttering out the brand name, which happens to be another bad joke; On the side screen, a young man in a well-proportioned suit and a greasy face reads a long list of advertisements at high speed with his mouth borrowed for 1 minute and anxious to return them after running out.
Going forward, the middle-aged lady on the left, who is full of jewels, introduces her own jewels with a red face, and at the same time belittles the users of "no-name jewellery". The seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl enthusiastically introduced the luxury offer of buying two and getting three free for a limited time.Although it was a pre-recorded commercial, it happened to be divided into one sentence at the moment, as if the women on the two screens were arguing in a strange way.
The passers-by on the street have long turned a blind eye to this noisy scene.
At most, they put their hands in front of their mouths to focus their voices to make their voices clear when they are on the phone; or they reach out to cover one ear in trouble, trying to hear what the other person is saying.
Two or three o'clock in the afternoon... There are really not many people on the street at this time.The people who come and go are all office workers who are busy with their business. You can also see some young people riding jet skateboards and passing through the middle of the road at extremely dangerous speeds. When they pass by, they will pat them on the shoulder. It's like a prank greeting.
"It's really... too depraved."
Lin Po frowned: "The walls along this street are covered with green moss marks, and the street is full of garbage... There are even graffiti painted on the walls with highlighters!
"I even smelled rancid. The city is poorly lit and too humid, that's what it is. These cold neon lights don't really bring dryness and warmth."
"Neon lights do not bring dryness and warmth, but at least they can illuminate the way."
Russell just shook his head and gave a gentle negative word.
Ringo didn't think so.
But with her good professionalism, she obviously didn't intend to quarrel with Russell.
So she took this topic directly, frowned and looked at this steel city that undoubtedly belonged to "degenerate, debauched, and ignorant" in her opinion, and asked, "Where do we start from?
"Why don't you ask a passer-by first?"
Hearing this, Russell couldn't help laughing.
Ringo asked with some dissatisfaction: "What's the matter? Did I say something stupid?"
"Ah, it's nothing. But how should I put it... I think it should be soon..."
Russell was vague.
But just when Ringo wanted to ask the riddle cat next to him what he wanted to say.
But a skateboard kid flew past her, slapped her hard on the shoulder, and pushed her staggeringly.
"--Yo!"
He yelled so loudly that the jet ski twisted and swiped and disappeared into the crowd.
"What is he doing!"
Ringo was suddenly pushed, and his tail frowned in shock.
Her face was full of displeasure: "It's really rude——"
"You should be thankful that you didn't bring anything that could be easily stolen."
Russell, who was walking beside her, said leisurely: "Otherwise, it's probably not on your body now.
"In other words, you should also be thankful that this is on the street. Otherwise, maybe you didn't push you just now...but put a sharp wire snare around your neck."
"……Why?"
Ringo frowned: "I look like the kind of person you hate?"
While talking, she subconsciously followed Russell into a dark alley.
On the other side of the alley is still a bustling crowd, even in the afternoon, it is quite large.
But at this time, Russell suddenly stopped in the middle.He stretched out his arms to wrap around Ringo's shoulders, motioning for her to stop.
"Of course it's because we are outsiders... We were discovered the first time we came in."
Russell said softly.
Against the light, three tall and thin figures appeared at the end of the alley.
Ringo turned around vigilantly, and found that there were also two people blocking the alley in the way of retreat.
Less than 10 minutes after getting off the airship, the two of them were blocked in an alley.
Chapter 15 Ringo's Special Suit
The Mamen incident in the past caused severe internal conflicts in Tongshen Island.
People with white hair have a slight hostility towards other Tongshen Islanders—it is precisely because their ancestors ignored all of this and did not lend a helping hand, that they were born with indifferent feelings and family relationships as cold as water.
And these white-haired people would hug each other again, which made other Tongshen Islanders with colored hair even more dissatisfied with them.
Although there are a small number of gray-haired people, it is because their ancestors were the "four thousand warriors" who voluntarily dedicated their lives; but more people, because they stole the mammon gold coins and caused their families and neighbors to pale and despicable By.They obviously did not make sacrifices, but they still blame others.
At the same time, all people from Tongshen Island will be hostile to people from other empty islands—it is precisely because the church sent people to help at that time, which made them clearly realize that if more people came to help, the 4000 people would not need to sacrificed.
Although this has nothing to do with other sky islands from the beginning to the end, they really think so, and they can't be wrong... because there is indeed such a method that does not require anyone to sacrifice.
Now that so many years have passed, under the deliberate confusion of Shenzhi Heavy Industry, it is completely unclear who are the descendants of those four thousand warriors and who are the descendants of despicable thieves.Not to mention there are hair dyes and artificial wigs. It is really not easy to judge the composition and origin of hair color.
Although they were against the light, Russell could also see clearly... the four men and one woman who blocked him and Ringo all had white hair.
"……why?"
Ringo was a little confused: "We didn't say anything, we didn't do anything."
"Of course it's because of you."
Russell smiled gently: "Because of your clothes."
"...what happened to my clothes? This is the company's latest technology product."
Ringo was a little confused.
"There is no doubt that in places other than Sun Island, such tights are too sensational. And the tube in the back of it proves that it is not some playful costume for adding interest."
Russell commented sharply.
The blue-and-black two-tone bodysuit worn by Ringo is not the kind of rubber suit that Delphinium wore when he was flying the mech.It is similar to a kind of thin one-piece black silk clothing.
Even the hands are wrapped in these long-sleeved black silk gloves.Not to mention the chest and abdomen, only the collarbone is exposed - the line extending from the collarbone with four holes punched on the left and right sides, extending back from the shoulders, and intersecting with the lines punched on both sides of the back connected together.And the black silk garment with only a gap in the middle of the back was also fixed by the threads extending from the holes on both sides of the back.
And those dark blue parts are like a kind of glued zipper.It only exists in a few important parts of the body... Compared with the translucent black silk clothing, it is completely opaque.More meaning must be used to cover the body.
And from the smooth skin on the back, it can also be seen that there is no underwear under Lingo's clothes.
This kind of light black silk dress with bare back, exposed collarbone, and bare shoulders may only increase the functionality of play if it is changed.
However, those holes in the body and those densely packed wires are creepy.
This design must make sense.Experienced technicians can see at a glance the technical difficulty required for this level of body modification, and from this it is even more certain that this is definitely not the technology of Tongshen Island.
——She is from the Outer Islands.Ringo's temperament that doesn't fit in with the surroundings, and her strange clothes that can be called "outlandish clothes" are enough to testify to this point of view.
Not only that, but she is also an agent from the Outer Islands.He is a dog who serves other "giant" companies!
Those who blocked them were silent, but the blunt weapons they held in their hands had already proved their hostility.
Realizing that he was out of the island for the first time, he made a joke because of the difference in common sense.
Lingo was immediately annoyed: "Mr. Qunqing, you should have reminded me earlier——"
"No, it's better this way."
Russell said softly, "Didn't you ask me, where should I start the investigation?"
"My answer is, from here."
After Russell spoke, the eyes of those people finally shifted from Ringo to Russell.
As if capturing some familiar traits from Russell, they suddenly became tense visibly with the naked eye.
"Go, my bodyguard."
Russell ordered: "Show me your abilities.
"Whether the bodyguards sent directly to me by Director Amirus can really protect me...Let them be a blank test paper."
"Ah, is it a late interview..."
Ringo suddenly realized.
But soon they felt a kind of sadness again—they originally planned to hold an interview after meeting the other two at Tongshen Island.
The hatred made her black pupils gradually glow with a cherry red light.
"No problem... the deputy director of Ultramarine Youth."
Ringo solemnly stated Russell's highest-ranking job title: "Please take a good look at me..."
As she spoke, pink liquid pumped out of the thickest black translucent pipes on her back.
Those dark blue modules on her body were dyed with cherry color in the blink of an eye.
"...if you can see me."
The next moment, Ringo's body turned into an afterimage.
The wind blew up, and Russell's hair was blown up and covered one of his eyes.
Her soft body bounced back and forth at high speed in the narrow alleyway, and it took less than a second to cover a distance of more than [-] meters and landed in the middle of the crowd.
Her limbs seemed to be bursting with pink lightning—at a speed that was accelerated to about three times the speed, she knocked down the three people one after another with lightness and precision.
Immediately afterwards, Ringo bounced back and forth in the alleyway, rising at high speed!
When she reached a certain height, she fell directly behind Russell like a comet!
A woman who sneaked up quietly was pinned down by her on the forehead and the back of her head on the ground!
But the most valuable thing is that such a swift and fierce attack did not directly smash the back of the woman's head on the ground, but just made people faint - so it can be confirmed that Ringo even has the strength to take off most of the force .
Seeing the situation, the last person wanted to run away, but Ringo immediately raised his left arm.
A streak of pink fluorescent spider silk-like mucus shot out from her left arm, directly stuck to the man's back, and brought him up into the air as it shrank, and landed heavily on the ground with a terrified ahhh sound.
"This is the [Psychic Agent MK-3] guard suit newly developed by the Second Research Institute of Thoth's Psychic Energy. It is light, breathable, beautiful, bulletproof, water-absorbent, and self-cleaning. Power supply! The psionic booster is miniaturized, no need to carry the heavy old-type booster backpack, and the psionic energy can be used to greatly strengthen the body functions. High-frequency spiritual empathy reduces radiation damage to the body by 99.5%!"
Seeing Russell's surprised and amazed eyes, Lingo subconsciously puffed out his inconspicuous chest, recited a long list of advertisements very fluently and freely, and sent out an enthusiastic inquiry: "Boss, don't you want to buy a few sets?" , home delivery and free assembly..."
"...?"
Russell looked at Ringo in astonishment.
Lingo immediately covered his flushed face with his hand: "I'm sorry, Mr. Qunqing. I'm used to it..."
Chapter No.16 might as well not wear
"...were you in charge of selling this kind of battle suit before?"
Russell asked casually while looking at the only man who remained conscious.
The others were all stunned by Ringo in the blink of an eye, only the last man who was pulled back by the elastic pink light and slapped his back on the ground still maintained his sanity.
The whole person flew in the air and slapped the ground heavily.
Basically, that strength is equivalent to hitting the ground while lying down on the back from a height of more than two meters.If it's a child who weighs less, maybe nothing will happen... But the man looks quite strong.Although it doesn't have the hideous muscles visible to the naked eye like Stretch, but it is still above the average level among the mercenaries of Happy Island.
Specifically, it is stronger than the bear-eared mercenaries who hijacked the airship back then.
His soul relative is also a brown bear, with a height of more than 1.9 meters and a visual weight of at least two hundred catties.
And when Ringo pulled him over, he immediately flew into the air...but Ringo did it lightly, as if there was no pressure.
Although the man still retained consciousness, he was obviously stunned.
While coughing violently, he wriggled his body slowly, shifting from a supine position to a prone and curled up position.The huge body was balled up, coughing and spitting on the ground uncontrollably with his elbows resting on the ground.
"Ah, yes..."
