Chapter 4536, the devil's object
Facing the mule cart that Luo Ji and the others drove over, Wade didn't ask any questions and took them directly to the gang's warehouse.
The location of this warehouse is at the innermost part of this block, which is simply the deepest part of their territory. Luo Ji's office is also in this area, which can be said to be the safest area in the territory.
When this warehouse was originally built, it was intended to be used to store gang property.
But later Wade sadly discovered that they didn't seem to have much property to store, so this warehouse was actually empty most of the time, but now it can be used.
The mule cart pulled the items directly into the warehouse.
Before Wade could react, Luo Ji lifted up the linen covering it. Suddenly, the production robot placed on the mule cart came into Wade's eyes.
At that moment, Wade's face changed drastically when he saw clearly what was on the cart. He quickly turned around and closed the warehouse door, fearing that the contents inside would be seen by others again.
This scene fell into the eyes of Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan, and smiles flashed across their faces, but at the same time, they also felt a bit curious.
"Wade, do you know what this is?"
Unexpectedly, Wade's answer was beyond their expectations.
"I have no idea."
"Then your reaction just now..."
"Boss, although I don't know what this is, I have some vague guesses. This is definitely an object of the devil. The Yi people do not allow such things to appear in the Holy Light Church. Once the Yi people know about it, we will be dead!
"
Wade said this with an ugly face and a heavy tone.
After hearing what Wade said, Luo Ji subconsciously exchanged a look with Ye Qingxuan.
"Devil's object? How do you say it?"
"I don't know what to say specifically. In short, things like this are prohibited in the Holy Light Holy See. Once discovered, it will be a death penalty!"
At this time, Wade's mood has calmed down a little, so his thoughts are much clearer and his speech has become more organized.
"Do all the humans in Lower City know about this?"
"Yes."
At this time, Wade had a slightly complicated expression on his face.
"Although the Wing Man will not teach us other knowledge, he will instill in us from a young age that we cannot touch the devil's objects, saying that these things are unclean things, let alone touching them, even if they are just close.
All will be cursed, abandoned by God, and eventually die."
Putting aside the religious rhetoric, the core idea of this sentence is nothing more than one, and that is, 'It is strictly forbidden to come into contact with such things, and if discovered, they will be executed!'
When Ye Qingxuan discovered that there were still a large number of humans living in the Holy Light Holy See, and these humans were still being ruthlessly squeezed by the Winged People, some speculations arose in Ye Qingxuan's mind.
But now, she can be said to be completely confirmed.
The winged humans are consciously and purposefully rejecting technological products.
Because for the Winged People, the existence of technological products conflicts with the core of their religious culture.
In other words, technological development will shake their religious rule.
This is especially obvious when it comes to humans.
After all, under normal circumstances, human civilization mainly relies on the development and growth of science and technology.
And human beings whose technological development has been curbed are equivalent to tigers whose fangs have been pulled out. Faced with the oppressive rule of the winged people, it is difficult for them to resist.
Regarding this so-called 'devil's object', since the humans in Xiacheng District would not take the initiative to mention it, Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan's understanding of it is really very limited.
Now that Wade mentioned it, Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan were thinking a lot. At the same time, they also had a deeper understanding of some of the things the Winged People did.
This time, Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan directly let Wade see the production robot because considering the current situation, it was unrealistic to hide the existence of this production robot from Wade.
So they simply took this opportunity to test it again.
Basically, if Wade can successfully pass this test, then he will officially join the gang.
By the way, Luo Ji's micro reconnaissance robots had been all over the area before this. He could make sure that no one around could find out what they were doing.
So far, Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan are very satisfied with Wade's performance.
But at the same time, some of the information revealed by Wade also aroused their interest.
"According to what you just said, you should be afraid of this thing, but I don't think you seem to be, even..."
While speaking, Luo Ji casually patted the production robot, and then his eyes fell on Wade again.
"You seem to be quite interested in this thing."
Facing Luo Ji's question, Wade hesitated for a moment, then spread his hands.
"Okay, boss, I admit, I am indeed a little curious about this thing."
"Why is this? Aren't you afraid that the Winged Man will find out and execute you?"
"Afraid, but curiosity and fear are not in conflict, are they?"
"Yes."
In response to Wade's remarks, Luo Ji nodded seriously.
"Curiosity and fear are indeed not in conflict, but I feel that you have other reasons."
While speaking, Luo Ji looked directly into Wade's eyes. After three seconds, Wade raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.
"Boss, I'm really convinced by you. Okay, I admit, there are other reasons..."
As he spoke, Wade's voice paused, and a look of reminiscence appeared on his face.
"I was actually exposed to these so-called 'devil's objects' when I was very young."
When Wade said this, there was a hint of sarcasm on his face unconsciously.
Obviously, in his heart, he also expressed contempt for the ideas that Yi Ren instilled in them, but he had never shown it before.
"I was only seven years old that year. At that time, my mother was working as a servant for a wealthy family, so I also worked as a handyman there and slept in the stables at night. That day, someone suddenly broke into the stables.
, he was a middle-aged human being. He was injured and very embarrassed. I was very scared at the time. The other person seemed to be afraid that I would scream, so he gave me a gadget."
"It was a very magical gadget that could emit all kinds of brilliant colors and images. What was presented to me at that time shocked me deeply."
"The middle-aged man hid in the stable for two days and talked to me about a lot of things. When he left, he was probably afraid that I would get into trouble, so he took the gadget away with him. After that..."
Having said this, Wade sighed, his voice a little heavier.
"His screams came from the corner of the street. I was so scared at the time that I didn't dare to look at him at all, but I could roughly guess that he should have been discovered by the wingmen who were chasing him."
