"Come on! Peter, come on! Cool him down!"
"Here it comes! Next! Rocket!"
A spray gun was thrown into Rocket Raccoon's hands, and he immediately pulled the trigger on the man lying on the ground. However, the gun fired not bullets, but freezing spray, and the man's body temperature quickly dropped.
"Oh, thank you, little guy." He covered his head and breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "I thought I would go back and rest after giving this away, but I didn't expect that I couldn't hold it any longer. Thank you for saving me."
"It's okay, but you really can't work anymore." Rocket Raccoon jumped on the cabinet next to him helplessly and said, "If you hadn't met us, you might have died if you had been lying there for a few more minutes."
"I can't help it. I only get the minimum wage by delivering ten items a day." The man got up from the ground and walked slowly away, holding on to the wall.
Rocket Raccoon walked up to Star-Lord, handed the gun back to him, and said: "You know what makes me sad the most? It's not that they are not doing well, but that they are actually doing well."
Even if Star-Lord always makes jokes, he can't make any jokes at this time.
The Guardians of the Galaxy are very good at finding themselves a job in an unfamiliar environment and then setting up a temporary base, because they've been doing this for several years.
When they land on a planet, they first look for the most densely populated place and find a job that they can do with their hands. With the help of their physical fitness and various high-tech equipment, physical labor is not a problem for them.
.
It was the same after arriving in Gotham. They declined Schiller's invitation and instead of going to the rich area, they plunged into the East End, the most densely populated area, and found a job as a porter.
The weather was not that hot at first, and their work went smoothly. After earning some money, they rented a basement, and they began to explore this magical area separately.
And they were surprised to find that although the building structure here looked strange like a sprawling maze, people were actually living a pretty good life. At least everyone had a house to live in, and the quality of the house was good, at least it could shelter from wind and rain.
Because this is a society of its own, with many jobs. Those who can do manual labor are doing delivery work, and those with smart minds are setting up stalls and doing business. Those who really can’t do anything can still take over some handicraft work at home, even if they can barely do it.
Can make a living.
This made several people in the Guardians of the Galaxy admire the city's builders and leaders, because there is no doubt that there is time and energy to build such a steel city, and the builder can make more money, but he did not, but
Choose to make the people here live better.
Just when the Guardians of the Galaxy felt that their investigation was almost done and they could leave, the temperature in Gotham got higher and higher, and various problems arose.
These huge buildings are all air-conditioned, so no one should suffer from heatstroke. However, the East District is not connected into a whole building, but is divided into several parts. Someone needs to do the moving work in between.
More importantly, the logistics industry that Gotham now relies on also requires human porters. The dock in the East District is the terminal with the largest throughput in Gotham. Most of the young adults in the East District work around the dock. Although their residences are air-conditioned,
However, not only is there no air conditioning on the pier, the sun is also very hot, making it very easy to suffer from heat stroke.
Previously, the Guardians of the Galaxy were responsible for delivering goods between two building complexes. Although you can drive most of the time, the last mile of transportation is not easy.
They do have high-tech armor and can swim in lava without any problem, but their colleagues can't. Either the driver of the truck fainted from the heat while waiting, or they met someone who fainted from heatstroke on the road, or
They were moving boxes. One was fainted by the heat, and the other was knocked down. They were just busy rescuing people, and they couldn't do much work at the end of the day.
As soon as they rescued a person who fainted at the door of the cargo station, Gamora hurried over and said: "Is the electric shock device at your place?! Someone has a heart attack! Come here quickly!!"
The two of them hurried over, followed the door of the building, and passed through a corridor. Groot was guarding the door, Drax was doing cardiopulmonary resuscitation, Nebula was preparing an injection, and Rocket Raccoon hurriedly turned on the electric shock device.
Take it out.
After a lot of work, the ambulance finally arrived and the patient was carried on a stretcher. Star-Lord breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, the purpose of the formation of the Guardians of the Galaxy was just to take risks in the universe. At most, Star-Lord had the task of collecting intelligence for mankind, but he only spent three days fishing and two days drying nets.
In order to sustain their adventure, they became interstellar mercenaries and occasionally took on some missions.
Because of these tasks, they will visit various planets and shuttle between various civilizations. How can I put it, the more they do this work, the more silent they become.
Although there are many forms of civilization, one thing remains constant. The gap between rich and poor exists everywhere. Even in a civilization like the Kree where all people are soldiers and are directly controlled by the supreme wisdom, there are differences in power. There is no difference at all.
Fair at all.
The universe is so big that there is nowhere to call home.
This is the conclusion they came to from traveling in the universe in the past few years. No civilization is the utopia they imagined. Even the people of the three empires have their own sufferings, let alone those who are not strong.
A civilization that combines natural and man-made disasters.
This also led to a change in their mentality. Originally, they did have a great goal of maintaining peace in the universe, but they only paid lip service to it, but later they felt more and more that the galaxy really lacked a guardian team to reduce the number of people as much as possible.
The sufferings suffered by all creatures in the universe.
So later, the Guardians of the Galaxy became worthy of their name. They were indeed a group of mercenaries. But after receiving a mission to go to a certain planet, they would try their best to live in harmony with the people on the planet. If the indigenous people encountered any trouble, they would try to help as much as possible.
.
The abyss of suffering has no bottom. The deeper you go into the people, the more you see all kinds of suffering. And the more so, the more dissatisfied they are with the current situation of the universe. The three major empires and the Interstellar Alliance are just whitewashing it.
Just peace.
They don't know that there is a problem in their own universe, but it is the same in every universe. They will accept Schiller's invitation to come to another big world this time, and they also want to seek verification.
But I didn't expect that before they could break out of the universe, they would be stymied by Gotham. The technological level of the Guardians of the Galaxy is indeed far superior to that of humans, but they have no good solution to the current situation.
After working until dark, they rescued two more heatstroke and emergency patients. Several people returned to the base. Rocket put the purchased vegetables on the stove. In the past few years of wandering in the universe, they learned how to maintain themselves at the lowest cost.
life.
Gamora breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the sofa. Star-Lord poured half a cup of ice cubes into the cup and drank a large cup of iced Coke before letting out a sigh of relief.
"Do you think it's possible to build a regional air circulation device?" Rocket looked at the design drawing in his hand and said, "Or cool down the sea water to achieve a natural cooling effect?"
"It's a little difficult." Gamora said: "This is different from some of the problems we have dealt with before. This is obviously not anyone's fault, but they had problems from the beginning of the city's founding, and the latecomers made up for it as much as possible, but
The problem still exists."
"That's right." Star-Lord said: "The people who built this city are already very good, and they have considered almost every aspect, but this city has been very weird from the beginning, and the problem cannot be solved by killing a few corrupt officials.
"
Rocket thought for a while and said: "I think I can use the principle of this freezing spray gun to create a freezing mist, which can be sprayed out for cooling when the temperature is the highest, but this equipment requires a lot of energy, and I don't think it is suitable for humans.
Energy levels are affordable.”
Star-Lord wanted to nod, but he seemed to have thought of something else and said: In such a big steel city with so many air conditioners, who is paying the electricity bill?"
"It's not a resident anyway." Gamora said: "According to your electricity bills in the United States, if you turn on the air conditioner like this, everyone will go bankrupt."
"It's not that electricity prices are so high in every state..." Star-Lord defended in a low voice, but he also knew that the positioning of this city should be similar to that of New York. The electricity prices in New York are already quite expensive, and they continue to rise every year.
However, he also knew that Kamora was right. If the residents paid for it themselves, they would not be willing to turn on the air conditioners. Moreover, all the air conditioners here are central air conditioners and should be uniformly controlled.
, how can the city government have so much money?
"I suspect there is an energy core here." Rocket Raccoon is obviously better at technical issues. He said: "It should be an energy core that surpasses human traditional power generation technology."
"Isn't it another energy magic crystal that can explode at any time?" Gamora almost jumped up. Last time they encountered a civilization, they picked up the energy core from other people's advanced civilization's spaceship and flew wires randomly. Finally, they came
There was a big explosion, and a hole was blown through their spaceship.
"Probably not?" Star-Lord scratched his head and said, "You can see from the city's construction ideas that the people who build the city can't be so brainless."
"It's hard to say." Nebula finally spoke up.
However, they all believed in Rocket Raccoon's judgment, because the situation in this steel city was indeed a bit abnormal, and it seemed that they were not worried about energy at all. However, as long as they calculated the energy expenditure of such a large city, they knew that this was unreasonable.
Rocket Raccoon touched his chin and said: "There are two ways now. One is to contact the city's builder, tell him that we have this technology, and ask him if he is willing to provide us with a socket on the energy core. The other is to
The method is to directly find the energy core and modify a socket yourself."
"I choose the first one." Gamora said: "Do you still remember our principles? Respect the destiny of civilization and don't interfere too much."
Star-Lord nodded and said: "This is the earth after all, and it is not the nest of some terrible alien monster. Since the builders of the city are willing to pay so much for the people, they may also accept our technical assistance."
"Do you really think they lack technology?" Drax suddenly said: "Can they make such an energy core but can't even make a cooling device?"
When he got to the point, several others were a little silent, but Star-Lord still stood up and said, "I'm going to call Professor Schiller. He should know what's going on."
Planet Coaster 2 is coming out soon, I’m going to save it and have a blast playing it then!
