Jack stumbled into the convenience store. Aunt Li, the storekeeper, was sitting behind the counter, looking at her phone with a pair of reading glasses. She noticed that Jack raised his eyelids when he entered.
"I guess we've run out of wine again?" Aunt Li said casually.
Jack groaned, ignored it, and went straight to the back shelf to look for wine. He was obviously very familiar with the merchandise display in the store, so he went straight to the area where the wine was placed.
His face was rosy, his lower body was empty, and he wanted to take one step at a time. He was obviously not very sober. When he turned the corner, he stumbled, staggering and almost falling.
"Be careful not to knock things over," Aunt Li muttered.
Jack didn't know what to say, but after a moment he returned to the counter with a bag of wine. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the video playing on Aunt Li's phone.
"Stark smart bracelet is a product that can completely replace modern smartphones..."
"...Light and portable, it can perform stereoscopic screen projection, equipped with an iris projection system and an augmented reality module. The screen can be projected on any area you see anytime, anywhere..."
Jack frowned and stared at the small screen for a moment.
"Do you believe those words? Customizing the future or something?"
"What? Oh." Aunt Li said, "I don't know much about those technological gadgets. But the gadgets they developed still look good.
This bracelet does seem to be more convenient than a mobile phone, and it is unexpectedly cheaper. Our boy ordered one for us all..."
"Heh, it's just to put it nicely and package yourself as a savior. It's no different from those high-ranking guys in the past." Jack snorted, "No one ever cares about the people at the bottom who really need help."
Aunt Li was not surprised by his words: "The interview failed again?"
Jack didn't answer and was about to walk out with the wine in hand.
"It's better to keep it in my account. I will definitely settle it before next month."
Aunt Li didn't say anything, she just took out the account book from under the counter, made a casual note, closed it and continued to watch her video.
Jack staggered into the night, his steps still frivolous, and the wine bottles in the bag were banging against each other from time to time. Before he got home, he couldn't wait to take out a wine bottle, opened the bottle cap, and lifted it upside down.
The bottle of wine started to gurgling and he started pouring it into his mouth.
The alcohol made him feel warmer, and even his terrible mood seemed to be numbed. He looked to the side with a hazy look, and suddenly he felt as if someone was looking back from the darkness.
Jack was startled for a moment and took another sip of wine. He squinted his drunken eyes and saw two dangerous dark red lights in the darkness.
Like a pair of will-o'-the-wisps.
Immediately afterwards, the will-o'-the-wisp rushed towards him.
Jack was so frightened that he sobered up. The black shadow was accompanied by a violent sound of wind, and the huge shadow seemed to be overwhelming.
“Uhhhhh!
!”
"..."
Aunt Li could hardly believe what she witnessed.
When she followed the sound and came out, she only saw a bloody mass in the darkness. Before she could see clearly, she felt something touch her shoes.
She subconsciously looked down and felt her blood pressure surge, her vision went dark, and she almost fell over.
It's Jack's head.
He had become separated from his body, but his eyes were still wide open, and the muscles on his face were frozen in an expression of extreme fear.
Aunt Li did not remember how she returned to the store, nor did she remember the process of dialing. She only remembered that the busy tone on the phone had never been as long as it was today, and at one time she felt that she would never be able to wait for the call to be answered.
.
"Hello, this is the Public Security Department..."
"Report the news, I want to report the news! Right in front of my store, someone died. His body was everywhere, his head...his head..."
"Calm down ma'am, tell me your address."
Hearing the voices of others calmed her down a little, and she gave her address.
"Okay madam, we have dispatched nearby security vehicles to your place. It will take up to five minutes to arrive. Have you seen the appearance of the suspect?"
Aunt Li replayed the scene just now in her mind. Thinking of the way the thing looked back and its eyes like will-o'-the-wisps, her hands and feet suddenly felt cold, and she started to shiver again.
"Ma'am? Are you still there?"
The operator's voice brought her back to reality.
"Yes, I saw it. The prisoner is...he is..."
She held her breath and lowered her voice as if she was afraid of being heard.
"...Batman."
...
"On Friday, list all the conditionally replicable technologies in Dr. Pym's module. Remember to remind me to sort them out when I have time."
"Okay, sir."
Chu Cheng withdrew from the technology module. There were so many new technologies that came out of Ant-Man that it would take him a long time to read the detailed explanations one by one. Unfortunately, he was not rich in time now.
At this moment, he is upgrading the system of the drone in the equipment customization module.
The first two batches of drone production have been completed, and the third batch is nearing completion. The goal is to achieve full coverage of Jiangdu.
But before this batch is put into use, he plans to edit new features into it.
The infected person identification technology developed by veteran thief Miyazaki has been successfully downloaded into the detective mode function of Batman's helmet. Now, he wants to install this technology into a drone.
By automatically scanning and identifying the infection reaction of everyone on the streets with drones, no infected person can hide from their omnipresent eyes. Even asymptomatic carriers with no obvious abnormality can be detected in advance by scanning, so that it is too late.
Lockdown and control infections before they spread.
In this way, his drone network will gain the ability to detect infected persons and sources of infection with extremely high efficiency.
After all, whether it is a militant or a criminal overlord, although these experiences are easy to earn, the rewards are not as generous as supernatural missions. Various infection incidents are the biggest source of experience points.
After testing the surveillance performance of this network with the criminal system of Vendelani and terrorists in the desert, the next step is to prevent and control infection incidents.
In this way, he can control various infection incidents as quickly as possible, cut off the chain of infection transmission from the source, control the harm to the greatest extent, and even have the opportunity to solve such problems once and for all.
If the ancient gods from outside the world really come soon, then this defense system will become even more important.
Chu Cheng has also played games where you can edit weapons and equipment by yourself before. This kind of game is often relatively difficult to get started at first, and it may seem a bit boring to get started. But once you understand the game and get fully involved, the pleasure of creation is unstoppable.
It’s easy to get immersed in it and lose track of time.
Just like it is now.
"Sir, Iron Man will arrive on the battlefield in one minute." Friday said.
"Huh? So fast!?" Chu Cheng looked at the time, "Well, have I been here for so long?"
"Yes, sir, you have edited the hang-up function of 'Auto Navigation' for Iron Man, and the tracking target is Hassanstan, the leader of the 'Order'.
The target 'secretly' escaped from the headquarters on a private plane. Of course, it was still under the surveillance of our drone network, and Iron Man still had forty seconds to reach the target."
"Don't rush me, don't rush me, the number is already on the line."
Chu Cheng clicked "Save Work Progress" and temporarily quit the equipment editing, entered the hero selection interface, and clicked on Iron Man at the speed of light.
The loading icon flashed and the screen lit up after a moment.
"Ten seconds left," Friday said.
"No need to report it, I've already seen it."
The screen lights up, and Chu Cheng has entered the perspective of Iron Man. When the screen lights up, the red and gold Mark No. 43 suit is advancing with all its strength, and its hands, feet and back are spitting out gorgeous tail flames. Iron Man is advancing at full speed.
, the white passenger plane scurrying around has appeared in the field of vision ahead.
"Very good, let's go up and say hello to the leader of the 'sect'."
