Tokyo, August 6, evening, Katsushima Night Market.
Suzuki Hero, Oda Ami, Hayakari Himi, and sisters Konno Aiko and Konnoki Watuki were shopping together, holding some snacks.
It’s not that I don’t have enough supplies to buy, it’s that I don’t dare to eat more.
The ingredients of these snacks are all after the disaster, and they contain a lot of unknown substances. If you eat too much, your body will not be able to tolerate it. It will not be diarrhea or anything else, but death will most likely occur.
When the alarm was lifted, the five people took their own small plane to trade fruits and vegetables, and by the way, they celebrated the two sisters Konno Aiko and Konnoki Watuki for surpassing Hero Suzuki in strength.
It is a lie that Hero Suzuki said he was not hit, but he is a gentle and good man, and he is more happy for the two women.
The two sisters may have been suffering from illness for a long time. Their mental strength is quite good, and they are in the growth period, so they can use it with a little practice.
Suzuki Hero is still a little worse, he seems to be an adult and has a messy mind.
In fact, the most powerful among the five is the half-human, half-zombie Hayakari Hiromi.
However, Hayakari Hilumi hid herself, and Suzuki Hero thought that her strength was only at the same level as at the beginning, which was similar to that of an ordinary enhanced person.
As for the sisters Konno Aiko and Konnoki Motuki, the three of them deliberately concealed the specialness of Hayakari Hiromi, and the sisters only regarded Hayakari Hiromi as just an ordinary enhancement person.
On the other hand, Oda Ami, with her female intuition, vaguely guessed that Hayakari was actually much better than Lumi.
The concentration of unknown substances in the air continues to increase, and the zombies continue to experience strengthening. Hayakari Himi has also been strengthened.
And from the beginning to now, it has been experienced seven times in total.
As for the zombies on land, they were hunted down by mutant troops and beast troops, and most of the previously transformed ones died.
Oda Ami didn't know how strong the zombies that had been strengthened seven times were. She only knew that starting from the fifth time, the zombies that appeared were stronger than the strengthened people.
All in all, Oda Ami feels at ease and is really lucky to have such a companion.
The only dissatisfaction is that this strength does not bring income.
This is probably because it is difficult to have both ends of the world, and greed is not enough.
Fortunately, after the Konno sisters arrived, in order to provide them with nutrition, they bought four laying hens from Teacher Sakura Tsuji of the Korinigaoka Guild, and then followed the advice and invested in a crop factory.
Using soilless cultivation and vertical cultivation, the cultivation area is one hectare. Now there is an abundance of vegetables and fruits, and life is very comfortable.
…
August 7, Big Island.
Under the leadership of Oda Ami, the group boarded the ferry of the Patrol Hill Guild for a visit.
For what Oda Ami asked before, is it possible to purchase some exoskeleton armors or even mechas from Yamazaki?
Teacher Sakura Ji and Ehibi Suzawa Kurumi received them and gave them a reply, which was not possible for the time being.
Teacher Sakura Ji said: "What Yamazaki-kun means is that he has no right to trade the existing exoskeleton armor of Indo. It originally belonged to the Indo military police and now belongs to the people, unless it is a newly manufactured product."
Oda Ami shook her head, "That's right. Mr. Yamazaki is really principled."
"Don't say that, I think it's right." Hero Suzuki said.
"Don't worry, Miss Ami," Ehibi Suzawa Kurumi said with a smile, "Yamazaki also said that exoskeleton armor and mecha are actually useless now, so I advise you not to focus on foreign objects."
Hayakari Lu Mei was moved in her heart, "Because of mental power?"
"That's right."
"Is it more powerful than exoskeleton armor and mecha? I mean, the current welding gun air blade, the future plasma air blade, or even laser?"
"Don't know about laser yet, but other, yes."
"So awesome." Sister Konno clicked her tongue.
Oda Ami's heart moved, "So, Mr. Yamazaki has already tested it?"
"It's not him, it's Ms. Diji."
"Her mental power is already so strong? How is that possible?"
Ehibi Suzawa Kurumi spread her hands, "It's true. She physically went to space with her mental power about a month ago, but there is no oxygen and she can't last long."
"Meidaizi now controls the American space station. Ms. Diji took Yamazaki with her to practice on it."
"..." Suzuki Hero and others' jaws dropped.
Teacher Sakura Ji and Ehi Suzawa Kurumi understood. When they heard the news, they were also dumbfounded.
Ehibi Suzawa Kurumi said: "By the way, before Yamazaki announces it, please keep it secret for the time being."
"clear."
After that, Oda Ami asked Hayakari Hiromi to take the sisters Konno Aiko and Konnoki Watuki to play with Yuki and the others, while she chatted with Hideo Suzuki, Teacher Sakura Ji and Ehibi Suzawa Kurumi.
some agricultural matters.
…
August 8, Tokyo Bay, electronics laboratory of the Blood Alliance Knights.
Yuuki Shozo called his daughter Yuuki Asuna and his prospective son-in-law Kiritani Kazuto over and introduced a special girl to them.
Artificial intelligence robot Yui is a special exoskeleton armor controlled by artificial intelligence human Yui.
"This is your companion, please take good care of her."
"clear."
"No problem, Dad."
"Okay, take her for a walk and contact her anytime if you have any questions."
"Okay, Dad, Yui, let's go."
"Um."
…
Watching them leave, Yuki Kyoko pondered: "Sugou, Kayaba, Rinko, you made Yui. Do you think it is possible for Yui to replace the ship girl Katsuragi Ai? Mr. Tokugawa has been
Looking for artificial intelligence people.”
Rinko Kamishiro said: "There are open source artificial intelligence programs on the Internet. The power of artificial intelligence lies not in the program, but in the hardware."
Sugou Nobuyuki said: "If you want to replace the ship girl Katsuragi Ai and build an artificial intelligence that can manage the whole country, you need to use at least 1 supercomputer or a group of large computers as the core, and then add others, such as 10 million
For ordinary computers, the more the better."
Kayaba Akihiko said: "The problem now is energy, then maintenance, and continuous consumption. Only the ship girl Katsuragi Ai can afford it, because she owns so-called public goods."
Yuuki Kyoko said: "In other words, the root of the problem is to let Katsuragi Ai, the ship girl, step down first and hand over public supplies to her successor."
"That's right," Kamishiro Rinko said, "As long as there are resources, there will be no problem."
…
In the morning, Yuki Kyoko went to Yoyogi Shrine to visit Mr. Tokugawa Sadada and relayed the problem.
Mr. Tokugawa Sadada solemnly thanked him and expressed his understanding.
In fact, he already knew about this from the business community, but there were some forces behind Yuki Kyoko, so it was always good to have more power.
As for the alternative, there is no rush now.
Based on the information from Tsukiyama Kanmu and the information collected, we have a general understanding of the characters of Yamazaki and Sandei.
Mr. Tokugawa Sadaide already has a rough plan, but he still needs to think about it and wait for the opportunity to allow Yamazaki to take the initiative to delegate power.
…
On August 20, the 37th week after the disaster began.
Yamazaki observed on the American space station that the concentration of unknown substances in the air experienced a new increase, the zombies' strength increased, and new zombies transformed.
