Overturned Tower

At the same time, the way for the company to get rid of a person has become much easier.

Just figure out a way to sell or give someone a gun and justify killing them for granted...

And when smart people finally appeared and wanted to destroy powerful enemies that were difficult for them to reach—such as the head office, or the Tartarus Hotel, there was no one who could cooperate.

Because they all have clearer "enemies" and ideas and methods to deal with them.

And after killing the enemy, the hatred and resentment accumulated in their hearts were relieved a lot.

The so-called vigorous efforts, then decline and exhaustion.The little courage left may not make them choose to continue to fight against the head office... After all, people are always short-sighted.The enemies close at hand have been dealt with, and if the Executive Department does not catch them, they hope that they can return to their original comfortable life.

——At that time, how many people will be able to stand up and declare the head office as an enemy?

Chapter 43 Hell, the Abyss, and the Prison

It can even be said that even if someone announces this, it is destined that not many people will join them.

The remaining people either have no courage, no wisdom, no vision, or no hatred.

From the perspective of the head office, this seems to be a very dangerous decision, but in fact it is more insidious and reliable.

Just like the people who stormed the Tartaros Hotel this time... they were annihilated out of sight in the blink of an eye.And this kind of thunderous power will make those who are enemies of the company timid and choose an enemy that is easier to deal with.

In other words, those "lower-level leaders", "uppers of the company", "annoying neighbors", and "love rivals who greened themselves" who are hated by people are also the scarecrows launched by Shenzhi Heavy Industry to bear the hatred.

Compared with the unstoppable and absolutely invincible Shenzhi Heavy Industry, a certain individual carrying hatred is easier to be killed.

—and that means something else at the same time.

That is, the surveillance capability of the head office here is not enough.

Russell doesn't know about Taoyuan Island, but whether it's Sogo Island or Happy Island, there are surveillance covering the whole island.

Sogo Island's strong artificial intelligence calculation system and Happy Island's "happiness detection" can find dangerous elements in advance and eliminate all unstable factors in the bud.

These densely packed high-rise buildings in Shenzhi Heavy Industry City are doomed to have insufficient control.

And Shenzhi Heavy Industry's behavior of poaching people with high salaries made the income of the company's people not so ideal.If the network security department is dissatisfied, it will choose to dawdle.

That's why Shenzhi Heavy Industry used the means of legally holding guns to let the pressure at the bottom dissolve itself.

And as for the upper floors...

Russell looked at the pink crystal ornaments all over the room, and suddenly realized:

"...That's why there is Tartarus? Its meaning is to monitor those human directors and the powerful people related to the company's top management."

Hearing this, No. 44, who had always been in a state of stillness—or rather, raised his head in astonishment, and cast surprise and even fearful gazes at Russell.

Because it is so.

This is theoretically a secret that only the employees of Tartarus can know.But it was pointed out by Russell.

It's not that Russell is so smart.

But because he remembered the meaning of the etymology...

Tartarus is the abyss and hell in Greek mythology...and at the same time, it is also a prison.

Vicious souls, gods, titans and demons will also be sealed in Tartarus, guarded by the hundred-armed giants, Hydra and Cerberus.At the same time, "Tartaros" also acts as a personified god, as the warden of Tartarus.

In other words, these servants who are called at any time are not monitors?

Those "security agencies" that can even use mechanical soldiers, and the surrounding drones...are they not the guards that prevent these directors from escaping?

No one can get in—that's another way of saying that no one can get them out.

There is no doubt that this is exactly a kind of house arrest.

And being able to use mechanized soldiers, knowing the bottom line of the dragon, and producing armed drones at a huge cost...even making the human directors stay here obediently, and filling every floor with monitors, and Who could it be?

Then there is only one answer.

It was the elven directors of Shenzhi Heavy Industry... the twelve elven directors headed by President Saar put the twelve human presidents whom the dragon forced them to elect under house arrest to the point that it seemed as if they could touch the entire sky island with their hands. In the high-rise hotel of Tartaros, who couldn't take a step.

"It really fits the name."

Russell sneered.

There was a pitiful smile on his face: "It seems that these human directors of Tongshen Island are not living very well.

"I don't know, can the extravagant life in Tartarus paralyze their hearts yearning for freedom?"

No. 44 was pale and dared not answer a word.

Not a drop of sweat dripped from her skin, but her breathing became much faster.

Russell looked at her, and said calmly and calmly: "Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you.

"—Misters and ladies in the back. You should hear it? This is my own reasoning, and it has nothing to do with Miss 44.

"If you have any questions, please ask Mr. Sal to come to me directly."

Looking at No. 44 who was still afraid to say a word, Russell shook his head slightly and changed the subject: "Can you tell me the specific information about those rebels? Their identities, weapons they possess, and their purpose .

"I just stayed here, and the rebels attacked the hotel...I don't think it's a coincidence?"

"...in fact, basically every week there are rebels..."

"—I don't think it's a coincidence."

Russell interrupted No. 44 and emphasized in a slightly louder voice.

Although he smiled, there was no smile in his eyes: "You don't want it to be a coincidence, do you?"

"...Yes. It's no coincidence, sir."

No. 44 shivered, and bowed deeply to Russell again with a pale face: "Their information has been sent to you."

Just as No. 44 was talking, a folder popped up in front of Russell.

It contained the complete files of about 30 people - from birth to when they had their chips removed.Even after the chip was removed, the archives continued to record.

Either because of losing a job, or because an invention was stolen, or because the parents were accidentally injured and killed by the executive department, or because the girlfriend was taken away by the company executives... Everyone has their own frustrations.They are united by a mysterious leader code-named "Naraku" who operates through the radio.

In this file, Russell noticed a detail.

There are two people, a man and a woman.

They have two files—a very complete life file that was disguised and joined this rebel organization as a couple.Besides that, they have another file.

That is the record of their defection from Mr. Otter's laboratory as experimental subjects.This includes all of their previous experimental projects.

Their real names are, "Lemon-6" and "Ethanol-4".

Two synthetics.

"These two synthetic humans, I want to see them."

Russell stared at No. 44, as if looking at some invisible monster behind her.

He said in a deep voice, "Can it be done?"

"……Can."

No. 44 paused before replying: "They were just smashed, but the data can still be salvaged. However, it will take a certain amount of time to restore the physically destroyed stored data and transplant them into new usable bodies. Please Wait for four and ten minutes..."

"No problem, I'll wait."

Russell nodded, and said in a low voice, "If it's okay, step back... Jailer No. 44."

If received amnesty, No. 44 immediately saluted and then turned and left Russell's room.

Chapter 44 Russell: Take it easy

After leaving respectfully on the 44th, Lingo inexplicably felt a kind of uneasiness and put his heart in his throat.

Mr. Qunqing...he is simply terrifying to the point of being daunting.

Just looking at the gentle and lazy appearance on weekdays, it is like a domestic pet cat - when you are in a good mood, you will be merciful and allow you to come over and touch yourself; when you are in a bad mood, dare to come here on your own If you touch it, I will give you a paw.

Although it was the first time for Lingo to meet Qunqing, she had an inexplicable sense of familiarity with Mr. Qunqing... as if she had met someone before, or when she knew someone with a similar personality to him.This made her have an inexplicable affection for Qunqing.

Just now, when he exposed the truth about Sun Island and Professor Chen in front of him, the contemptuous and sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth, and the warm breath whispering in his ear - he is so handsome.

It was completely different from the well-behaved and harmless appearance when she first met Qun Qing.

Instead, with a sense of aggression that is not annoying, it wants to make people subconsciously obey.

Just when she was planning to insert Ultramarine's data cable into her own interface and turn on the administrator's authority... At that moment, she felt a little excitement and inexplicable anticipation while being nervous.

But after that process was interrupted, when Mr. Qun Qing stared at No. 44, the temperament revealed instantly shattered Lingo's sense of anticipation.

Although it is also different from the original appearance, it is like another mask.

But with a very strong sense of danger.

Just tasting that breath will make you feel terrified.

If you want to compare it, it's like feeling a stench coming from behind - when you turn around, you see a strong lion still close at hand, with a trace of scrutiny and banter, putting its paws on his shoulders.You can even feel the sharpness of the claws on your neck.

He didn't even dare to move, his heart was slowly being grasped.

That will only make people feel weak, and there is no sense of aggression with a slightly ambiguous taste before.

This inexplicably made Lingo feel a little regretful.

If it wasn't for this...

She hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask, "Should we... continue?"

Lingo reached out and touched the interface under his left collarbone—although the two symmetrical interfaces under the collarbone are essentially the same.But the interface closer to the heart will make her feel more "private"...or more "private".

"Don't worry."

Russell shook his head slowly, the dim yellow light in his pupils gradually extinguished.

The mysterious and majestic feeling about him gradually dissipated.

——That is the personality and way of thinking imitated from "Director Torquay".

As a matter of course, the matter of Shenzhi Heavy Industry must be analyzed by the brain of Shenzhi Heavy Industry.

To imitate the way of thinking of the name-bearing elves would have been a bit of a burden for Russell—because it was not a "life" of one person, but a hollow stone in which many souls were intertwined.It's like an oil painting that has been covered repeatedly. Generally speaking, only the outermost layer can be seen. If you want to see the traces of the painting inside, it must be analyzed by a sophisticated machine.

However, Director Torquay is a false name elf.He didn't inherit the fate and memory carried by the name "Torki Fat" at all, he was just an immortal who was transformed from an ordinary person.

Just a short contact is enough for Russell to absorb all the essence of wisdom condensed in his not too long life.

When Russell raised his head again and looked at Ringo, his essence silently switched to the identity of the "Godfather" who belonged to the personality of Blue Robin.

He showed a gentle, cheerful, but inexplicably stressful and aggressive smile, and said slowly: "Wait for the hotel to fix those two people and send them to me; when I finish asking all the things I want to ask, After all the irrelevant people leave, I will connect to the data cable with you, sit together... and talk slowly."

The feeling from before came back——

Lingo keenly felt his skin itching slightly, and his breathing became a little short.

At that moment, she had an extremely terrifying fantasy:

The hero codenamed "Qunqing" may be a "group god" composed of many different personalities.An "all-rounder" with many different identities, talents, and personalities.That's why he can become friends with anyone, and can solve any problems that stand in front of him...

He is as innocent as a child, cheerful as a youth, and calm as an old man.

Patient like a fool, rejoicing like a wise man...

Like a saint, but also like a devil.Like a hero, like a criminal.

And to Qunqing's different appearance, Lingo had completely different reactions - she couldn't help feeling admiration for Qunqing, obedience to the superior, and admiration for the leader; Like a spider, the individual with dark intelligence felt a kind of...disgusting for him to be able to switch identities so freely.

It's not a psychological disgust, but a bodily instinctive rejection.It's like eating something poisonous, dizzy, nauseous.

Suddenly, Qun Qing approached her.

He put his forehead against Ringo's forehead, and the tip of his nose against the tip of his nose.

He asked coldly: "What are you thinking?

"What are you fantasizing about? What are you thinking about? What are you... afraid of?

"—Are you there, afraid of me?"

There was a chill down my spine.

Ringo held his breath, his pupils dilated, and his mind went blank for an instant.
