"Uh..."
The dwarf man looked at the girl curled up in the space, hesitated for a while, then tentatively asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Is this custom shop forcing you to take clients?"
"No way, aren’t you a robot? I..."
"Really?"
Just as he finished speaking, he saw the girl’s eyes light up, her voice trembling with so grievance, "Seventh Sister is lost, I’m very sad. If you can help find her, I can give you a generous reward."
"Seventh Sister is my cat."
"..."
The dwarf man, sowhat expressionless, shut the door again, and rolled his eyes, annoyed. Crying so sadly in a custom shop nearly gave him a guilty conscience. He thought sothing evil was going on, but it turned out a damn cat was lost.
Just then—
A cat strolled past the shop door, strutting provocatively.
Coincidentally, his thugs also ca down from upstairs at this ti.
"All of you, go bring that cat back to ."
"Damn."
"I’m so kind-hearted."
Half an hour later.
The dwarf man expressionlessly twisted the cat’s tail. He knew it, it was a chanical cat, and a wind-up one at that, but he said nothing. He returned to the "Private Customized Custom Shop," opened the secret door under the counter, and looked at the girl still curled up and sobbing there.
"Here, your Seventh Sister is back."
"Thank you."
The girl imdiately burst into a smile through her tears, "I have nothing to repay you with, so I’ll give you a ’Neon City’ free coupon. With this coupon, you can have anyone in the city serve you according to your whims, but it can only be used once."
"..."
The dwarf man took the woman’s "Free Coupon" in silence, saying nothing.
If he had given it earlier, he could have enjoyed it, but only gave it after.
But now he definitely can’t use it. In middle age, it’s different from when he was young. Back then, doing it seven or eight tis a night wasn’t bragging; it was easy, not knowing what fatigue was.
He’d even secretly go to the bathroom to relieve himself beforehand to decrease sensitivity, making it last longer.
Now, in middle age, after finishing once, he feels like joining a monastery.
No possibility of a second round.
Better keep it, and use it once more before leaving this adventure map.
"It works."
Feeling quite satisfied, the dwarf man stuffed the coupon into his pocket and with his n, headed outside to take a stroll. His pockets were nearly empty, with only 129 points left.
Might as well buy so food and water at the convenience store later.
Otherwise, staying here for 48 hours would leave him hungry.
...
The Train Captains able to enter this adventure map generally have high levels and strong determination.
Except for so Train Captains curious about the "Custom Shop."
More Train Captains are still seeking adventures or making money, so...
A massive search of shops, even the office buildings weren’t spared, most doors were locked, only a few offices were open.
This is a very open-ended adventure map.
One can go anywhere as long as the door isn’t locked.
And now—
Chen Mang stood at a factory entrance, surrounded by high fences equipped with electric grids, heavy machine guns, and anti-aircraft guns, the first firepower accessories he’d seen in the city.
Next to the gate was an iris lock.
They couldn’t break in, nor enter.
But...
Chen Mang slightly squinted at the iris lock. After leaving the mory Bank, he had explored the city for over 3 hours without encountering any interactive robots, yet discovered this factory of unknown purpose.
It had no na outside.
However, he realized that the city’s cash registers, entertainnt centers, and robots were all connected by a network, making it the first networked place he’d encountered post-apocalypse.
The train has no internet.
The adventure maps visited earlier had no networks either.
Only this city had a network.
This ant the "Train Assistance AI’s" unused supermodel effect finally had a purpose.
-
"Train Assistance AI Level 10 Supermodel Effect": Capable of network intrusion, decryption, and bypassing most network firewalls.
-
By bringing Ai back next ti into this adventure map, he could unlock more inaccessible areas.
There must be good stuff inside.
Only two challenges needed resolution.
First, Ai doesn’t belong to the train crew and can’t be brought here.
Second, Ai’s main body is rely the train AI, able to control robots only as appendages, disconnecting when too far from the train.
But he believed these problems had solutions.
After all, when Er Dan’s consciousness descended into a robot on his train, the AI also remotely followed, indicating a solution exists; he just hadn’t encountered it yet.
Once solving these issues, and bringing Ai here, the city would almost be his private playground.
Free to roam.
He hoped the city’s backup power lasted long enough since maintaining it would be astronomical, unaffordable, and hopefully unused areas turned off to save energy.
Not knowing thrift at all.
Turning away, Chen Mang led his group, riding off-road motorcycles, continuing to explore the city.
...
The "Neon City" adventure map lasts 48 hours.
Only 4 hours were left till the end.
During this period, they encountered only one interactive robot, earning 120,000 from a Law Enforcent Bureau’s bounty, assisting in finding a stolen aircraft.
How rare!
This city even had a Law Enforcent Bureau.
As for the police aircraft, they found it, stolen by a gang, earning a reward of 120,000 from the Law Enforcent Bureau.
But no other interactive robots appeared afterward.
Currently, they stood at the Law Enforcent Bureau’s entrance.
"Thank you."
A rather knowledgeable-looking middle-aged lady, dressed in uniform, ca out of the Law Enforcent Bureau, sincerely facing Chen Mang’s group, "Thanks to you, Eden is better."
"One day—"
"I will eradicate all cris in this city!"
"You’ve worked hard."
Chen Mang smiled at her. Though only 120,000, it was fine. He didn’t mind a smile, slightly pitying only 4 hours left before the map ended, guessing 500,000 was the limit.
It’s all right, though.
500,000 could buy a lot from the "chanical Train Accessories Store."
"..."
Biaozi rolled his eyes at her serious deanor. If the city’s cris were truly eradicated, what would remain? Wouldn’t it be a ghost town?
This woman was this Law Enforcent Bureau’s chief.
Seeming serious.
But...
He thought of sothing and tentatively poked her again.
The next mont—
"Sir, interested? 1 million points."
The woman, with a serious face, turned toward Biaozi.
"Damn!"
"I knew it!"
Biaozi took a deep breath, imdiately turning to follow Master Mang away. He knew that in this city, regardless of identity, as long as there was physical contact, there would be this interaction!
Dammit!
He dared not hold any other hopes, having tried countless tis; everyone was like this, without exception!
