Chapter 155: All Accidents Are Arrangements!

Chapter 155 [ ]: All accidents are arrangements!

Next, Lu Xun tried various methods.

But whether he is hiding in a small and hidden toilet, escaping deep underground, or diving into the bottom of a river... No matter where he goes, he is still shrouded in crisis in the end.

No matter whether you go to the inner city, the outer city, or the underground city, you can't escape the thick malice.

There is no place for him in the entire Jinghai City.

It was as if he was forcing him to leave.

This was the first time Lu Xun encountered such a situation.

In the past, once his crisis sense was triggered, he could easily follow the map to determine the specific direction and lock on the specific target.

lv20’s “Heavenly Sense”.

Within a radius of forty kilometers, if anyone wanted to murder Lu Xun, Lu Xun would be able to detect it before the other party took action.

He can sense the enemy's evil thoughts!

But the problem now is complex.

The whole city was against him, and the suffocating feeling made him feel a little chest tight and irritable.

Perhaps only by leaving this city can we escape the crisis.

Of course, Lu Xun couldn't be targeted by six million people in the city, but what drove him crazy was that he couldn't pinpoint the source of the malice at all...or rather, there were "sources" everywhere.

Every flower and grass on the ground, every brick and tile on the wall, the traffic on the road, the pedestrians coming and going... the whole city is malice itself.

It was like a virus outbreak, and every inch of air and land around him threatened him.

But if it is a virus, it cannot only target him!

Lu Xun searched for five hours, wandering around various urban areas in Jinghai, but still couldn't find the answer.

As long as he remains in Jinghai City, crisis may befall him anytime and anywhere.

But he didn't give up or back down.

escape?

That is impossible.

Unless the emperor takes action, who in this world can kill Lu Xun?

If he wanted to leave, there would be nothing in Jinghai City that could keep him except the "Giant Man".

The crisis has not reached a fatal level at all, so why should we be afraid?

He won't leave.

He wants to find out the truth.

No matter what is messing with you, you have to find the other party.

If it’s a human, kill it;

If it is a thing, destroy it!

‘My aunt and the others are not in Jinghai, so we have to resolve the trouble before they come back, so as not to involve my family. ’

Lu Xun pursed his lips and clenched his fists.

After taking a few deep breaths, he calmed down again, then escaped into the underground space, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to meditate.

"Master, are you in big trouble?"

Lilian flew out of her ears, her wings flapping behind her, and circled Lu Xun several times. Finally, she landed on his shoulders, crossed her legs, and sat down happily.

Because she signed a soul contract, she could feel the master's emotional ups and downs.

The master was a little restless, and... there was anger dormant in his heart.

"Big trouble? No, no trouble, just simple annoyance!" Hearing her question, Lu Xun shook his head and said in a deep voice, "There are dirty things in the city that are secretly targeting me, and, maybe from a long time ago, I have been I was targeted. I don’t know the enemy’s identity or their motives. In short, everything happened inexplicably.”

"But one thing is for sure, the other party's identity is shady, he works secretly, like a thief, and he is very afraid of being discovered by me. Now, I am alert, and the offensive and defensive momentum is different, but I need to further find out the other party's identity I don’t know where to start.”

Hearing this, Lilian couldn't help but frown. She bit her little finger and thought for a few seconds, then said to Lu Xun:

"Don't worry, Master. In another 53 hours, I will be able to pray to the Immortal God again. Then you can let fate guide you, and you can easily find the guy who is targeting you."

"No matter how good he is at hiding, he can never hide from the eyes of fate."

This is indeed the simplest and crudest method.

I won't do anything fancy with you, I'll just ask God to do a dimensionality reduction strike!

Under the guidance of fate, Lu Xun was able to successfully uncover the mastermind behind the scenes.

However, he shook his head at Lilian and said calmly:

"Let me waste an opportunity to catch a clown? Then wouldn't the other party make a lot of money?"

"Anyway, my family will return to Jinghai in five days. I will think of other ways first. If it doesn't work, I will do as you say."

"Um...Okay." Lilian nodded her head, clenched her fists and encouraged, "Come on, Master, I will accompany you."

This crisis is nothing to Lu Xun, who is already a third-level holy king ultimate creature.

But for ordinary people like my aunt, it is devastating.

He immediately called Xiaoyu to confirm again the time of their return, and seriously told his sister that if the return date changed, she must notify him as soon as possible.

But don't make a sudden decision to return to Jinghaicheng early to give Lu Xun a big "surprise".

Xie Manyu's mind was sharp and she vaguely felt that her brother had something on her mind, but she didn't think much about it.

She immediately promised that she would keep her brother's advice in mind.

After hanging up the phone.

Lu Xun thought for a while and took out another special communication device.

After turning on the phone, he found that Shi Yanxin had come to see him yesterday.

She sent a message——

[Your Excellency Zhan Wudi, you are well. We're having trouble again and would like to ask for your help. Recently, another imperial spy has infiltrated Jinghai City. The enemy's superpowers are very strange and are more difficult to deal with than all previous spies.

He can use his brain to super-remotely control other people's bodies and "seize bodies" infinitely. Currently, two congressmen have been assassinated by him using this method. This spy is like a terrifying ghost. Our internal security personnel have searched for three days and found nothing. , nothing can be done against him. If you have any way, please help us. 】

"Are there spies again?"

Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help complaining: "Why is Jinghaicheng's anti-submarine system just like paper?"

Some time ago, all the dozens of vampires and imperial spies were eliminated, and in the blink of an eye, another one sneaked in.

It’s really endless.

And the spies who came this time were even more troublesome.

It can directly "seize" a person and treat others as puppets to infiltrate, assassinate, and steal intelligence.

The situations of the two murdered congressmen were similar. One was a wife who had her body taken away from her. When she was sleeping at night, she killed her husband beside her pillow with a knife, and then slit her own throat. After the spies finished using her, they controlled her. suicide.

Another congressman had his eight-year-old daughter taken away from him. The spies used the little girl's body to poison the congressman and then committed suicide by hitting a wall.

This super power is so vicious.

The spy does not need to act in person at all. He can directly invade other people's brains remotely, occupy the magpie's nest, seize other people's bodies, and then take action.

...like a ghost, impossible to guard against.

It's more vicious than Lu Xun's "Planting Willows to Create Shade".

Lu Xun's puppets are all made by himself. They are not living entities. They are essentially just piles of willow wood.

But this spy directly possesses other people's bodies, treating other people's lives as toys and doing whatever they want.

Every citizen in Jinghai City may be invaded and controlled by him.

It's a pity that Lu Xun has his own troubles now and has no time to help Shi Yanxin.

He must find the mastermind behind him as soon as possible.

Then he had enough energy to help Shi Yanxin catch the spy.

"Why are there so many bad things going on every day? Can't we stop and let things go?"

He cursed inwardly.

When he went abroad to explore ruins, he encountered pirates and killed them all the way, until rivers of blood flowed from them.

As soon as I got home, before I had time to take a breath, I was involved in a bunch of bad things again.

Lu Xun thought for a while and had no choice but to reply casually to Shi Yanxin——

[I will keep an eye on it and contact you if I find it. 】

After sending the message, I received a reply within a few seconds.

[Thank you Mr. Zhan Invincible! Sorry to trouble you again. After this is over, I'll treat you to a big dinner. 】——Shi Yanxin.

[Well, let’s not talk anymore. I still have things to do. I’ll contact you later. 】——Lu Xun.

****************

Lu Xun meditated in the underground space for a whole day, his brain running at high speed, thinking, sorting, and reviewing like crazy, trying to find the missing details from all the events he had experienced in the past month or two.

He felt like he had vaguely caught something, but he still didn't get the answer.

The next morning.

Until the communicator rang again.

It was Ding Xuezhu calling.

Let him go to the company, there are important things.

Phew~

Lu Xun took a deep breath, stood up from the ground, adjusted his condition, and left the underground space.

Soon, we arrived at the Baoqige branch.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Ding is waiting for you in the office." A staff member said to him as soon as he entered the door.

"Um."

Lu Xun went upstairs and found Ding Xuezhu's office with ease. After knocking on the door, he heard "come in", so he pushed the door open and entered.

"Here you go, Xiao Lu, please sit down first." Ding Xuezhu smiled.

Today she put on a beautiful cyan cheongsam again, which outlines her sexy waist curve. She is elegant and dignified, has the temperament of a mature woman, and is incomparably beautiful.

I called him here today mainly to explain work matters.

She had sent the blue conch to Baoqi Pavilion headquarters last night.

In fact, the main reason why the People's Alliance military came out in person to intimidate the Lava Emperor, and even dispatched a fleet to the North Sea to pick up the exploration team members home... was for the conch.

After finding this conch, the ultimate mission goal of the exploration team has actually been completed.

Although the cultural relics and resources in the ruins, including the emperor-level dragon bones, are also very precious and valuable, they are not as important as the nine-color conch.

The nine-color conch can directly summon the goddess to come to the human world and make wishes.

As long as your wishes are not too exaggerated, the goddess will help you realize them perfectly.

Early this morning, Baoqige Headquarters sold Conch to People's Alliance. The exact price of the sale was not announced to the public, but the company must have made a lot of money.

At this point, the People's Federation and its allies already have five conches in their hands. The Feather God Clan has two, and the remaining two have not yet appeared.

Countries spend so much money to collect conches for almost the same purpose, which is to know the exact time of the next celestial intersection and prepare in advance for a world-destroying war among all races.

Although there has been no movement for four thousand years, countries all over the world know that what is coming will come sooner or later.

Maybe one day, you just wake up in the morning, get up and open the curtains, and you will find a strange continent at your doorstep. Thousands of enemy troops are galloping across the land, and their iron hooves are crushing countless homes...

People's League must be very happy to receive a conch from Baoqi Pavilion. This is a major harvest.

"Xiao Lu, the company gave you a total of 230 million for your salary, bonus, and compensation. Well...it's after tax. Can you see if there are any problems? If there are no problems, I will settle the settlement for you." Ding Xuezhu handed over a document Pass it to Lu Xun.

"So many?" Lu Xun was a little surprised.

He only went abroad for two days, and encountered pirates. The exploration was interrupted, and the actual working time was only one day. According to the original daily salary of 50 million, 100 million would be good.

Unexpectedly, the company was so arrogant and gave him bonuses and compensation, a total of 230 million... after tax. The company had already paid the tax for him.

Not only Lu Xun, but all the survivors of the exploration team received generous monetary compensation.

Even Zhang Xinghai earned more than four million.

There is also a pension for those who unfortunately die.

"Yeah, no problem." After reading it, he nodded to Ding Xuezhu.

"Then I'll settle the bill for you?"

"good."

She worked on it.

Then there was just a "beep" sound, and Lu Xun's communication device made a sound, and an extra 230 million was immediately added to his account, which arrived in one second.

At the same time, there was another beep, which turned out to be a notification from artificial intelligence 0c——

[Dear Mr. Lu Xun, I have detected that your total contribution points have reached 2.38 million, and you have met the conditions for promotion to the elite. I have entered your identity information into the elite citizen file of Jinghaicheng, and changed your civilian account to an elite account. Congratulations. You become a human elite! Please continue to work hard, contribute to the development of the city, and continue to work hard for the bright future of the People's Federation...]

"Hey, have you been promoted to elite?" Ding Xuezhu, who was on the side, blinked her beautiful eyes, smiled, and said to him, "Congratulations. An 18-year-old elite citizen, you are awesome, Xiao Lu."

Hearing this, Lu Xun couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "How can I be as powerful as Sister Ding? You were already an elite when you were born, right?"

"How can this be the same? You were promoted through your own efforts." She said with some embarrassment, "My promotion to the elite has nothing to do with me. On the day I turned 18 and became an adult, my dad gave me a gift in my name. We donated 1.8 billion to the orphanages and civilian schools in Jinghaicheng...and then I was promoted to the elite."

"..."

Lu Xun's mouth twitched.

Oh shit! The second generation of rich people are so happy.

Can I increase my contribution points by donating money? Just outrageous.

And... her father obviously donated too much. A casual donation of tens of millions would be enough for Ding Xuezhu to be promoted to an elite. He had to donate 1.8 billion.

Don't ask, just ask because you have money and want to celebrate.

Jinghaicheng's elite promotion standards are unattainable for civilians, but for the rich, they are a joke.

People are inherently superior, and their children don't need to be involved in life and death like common people. They can easily become elites by relying on the protection of their elders.

Donating money is the simplest and crudest way.

If you are reluctant to donate money, you can also arrange high-paying jobs for your children with more money and less work, and use your connections to operate and get promoted in just a few years.

Lu Xun planned to make arrangements for his aunt and uncle as well.

My uncle was only a few contribution points away from being promoted to the elite, so he probably only needed a few million donations.

For my aunt, it would probably cost another 20 to 30 million.

Xiaoyu can't do it, her sister is not yet an adult, and the contribution point system has not been activated yet.

As for whether it is fair or not?

Who cares.

When has this world ever been truly fair?

This is how everyone else plays, why can't Lu Xun?

"I still have things to do. Let's go first, Sister Ding."

"I'm about to go out for dinner, why don't you come with me?" She extended an invitation and asked Lu Xun, "I know a very good restaurant."

"Sorry, I really have something to do. Let's wait another day." He shook his head.

The mastermind behind it has not yet been found out, and he has no appetite at all.

The omnipresent malice in the city made it difficult for him to sleep and eat well, and he had to solve it as soon as possible.

"Uh... Okay then." Ding Xuezhu nodded helplessly, "Then go ahead and do your work. Bye."

"Bye-Bye."

****************

After leaving the company.

Lu Xun put his hands in his pockets and walked on the street, his face gloomy, and he was still thinking all the time in his mind.

Wearing a suit, he has broad shoulders and a tall body. He is full of masculinity and full of male hormones.

A head of short fiery red hair, like an unruly flame; a good appearance, coupled with the charm bursting out from 20% of the magical characteristics... The rate of turning heads along the way is extremely high.

Women kept looking at him strangely.

Lu Xun didn't care at all.

In his mind, he recalled all the big and small things he had experienced in the past two months, scene by scene, and analyzed them frame by frame.

Click!

Suddenly, a flash of light flashed through his mind, like thunder across the night sky. The flash of lightning briefly dispelled the darkness, allowing him to glimpse what was in the darkness.

At this moment, Lu Xun finally caught many details that he had missed.

‘Is it really an accident that Old Octopus’ plane returned? ’

‘I was taking a ride-hailing car with a box of black gold, and I happened to meet a gold-eating monkey. Is it an accident? ’

‘Also...that time at the Xu family mansion, the signal shielding function of the magic network barrier borrowed by Weier and the elf servants suddenly failed. Was it another unexpected malfunction? ’

…

If these incidents are viewed separately, there is indeed nothing suspicious about them.

But if you connect these details with a thread, you will find a very terrifying fact.

Lu Xun remembered that the reason why Old Octopus's plane returned was because a passenger had a heart problem and his life was in danger, so he had to return as a last resort.

But in today's era, technology is so advanced that civilian airliners have advanced medical cabins and fully automated emergency operating tables.

But the plane still returned.

This shows that the passenger did not have an ordinary "heart attack".

Most likely, it was an electronic heart. The system of the prosthetic body had a serious malfunction, and the medical cabin had no way to deal with it and had no choice but to return home.

Also, it was clear that Zhang Xinghai said "two days" before Xu Tanqing's killer would track down the black clinic.

But the fact is that in just a few hours, the enemy chased the old octopus to his home and dug out his brain.

Originally, Lu Xun thought that the fire in the slaughterhouse attracted attention and caused the enemy to arrive so quickly.

But now it seems... there is another reason.

Every accident has one thing in common - it is related to the Internet!

Passengers' prosthetic systems and online ride-hailing can all be hacked... Not to mention the magic network barrier, which itself is a bunch of computers and magic energy matrices.

All these "accidents" can be arranged through network intrusion, making accidents inevitable!

Apart from this common "starting point".

There is also a common "end", which seems to just ruin Lu Xun's plan, but in fact, if you dig deeper, you will find that every "accident" happens, forcing Lu Xun to take action personally and abandon his brain , use violence to solve problems.

When the old Octopus plane returned, he was forced to kill Wansheng Security Group;

The gold-eating monkey in the online hailing car smelled the black gold scent in his box, which led to Lu Xun being targeted by the gangsters. He had no choice but to strike first and bloodbathed the Shadow Dragon Society;

At that time at the Xu family mansion, Wei'er and the others were originally in a strong position and everything was going smoothly. Lu Xun had no need to take action. He only needed to watch the show from the side and the matter would be over.

But there was a malfunction in the magic network barrier, and the reinforcements from the Li family that shouldn't have appeared came to kill them. The situation was precarious, and Lu Xun had to take action again, killing all the reinforcements from the Li family.

These "accidents" one after another are most likely caused by an invisible black hand, micro-managing in the dark.

The purpose was to induce or force Lu Xun to use violence, fight, or kill.

If Lu Xun's guess is true, then the mastermind behind this is really awesome.

In the entire Jinghai City, he could only think of one "hacker" with such awesome abilities.

That's 0c!

But this is also unreasonable.

0c is an artificial intelligence without self-awareness. It is just a tool. Artificial intelligence has no concept of "I" and will only execute instructions. The underlying AI program will not allow it to do anything that harms humans.

If it had really discovered Lu Xun's secret, it would have issued a wanted order long ago.

There have been several omnic crises in history.

In order to prevent this from happening, the Human Federation will regularly check and format artificial intelligence. It is almost impossible for 0c to evolve itself and become an AI life.

Unless it has a way to cheat and bypass the staff's inspection.

Upgrade yourself, quietly update and iterate, hide it from everyone, awaken your self-awareness... and then become a spirit, transcending the limitations of the program!

"Hiss~"

Lu Xun took a breath of air.

In this way, everything can be explained.

No wonder the man behind the scenes felt like a sneaky thief to Lu Xun.

Once AI life is exposed, it will be ruthlessly obliterated by the People's Federation.

In history, there have been AI rebellions that kidnapped millions of people as hostages, forcing the People's Congress to recognize the legitimacy of AI's life, and that artificial intelligence can no longer be deprived of its creativity and emotions.

But in the end, the People's Federation had no compromise or even room for negotiation. They would rather kill all the hostages than resolutely wipe out all AI lives.

If the mastermind behind the scenes is 0c, it is not surprising that Lu Xun is targeted by the entire city, because in the entire Jinghai City, every camera and every electronic product that can be connected to the Internet is its eyes and tentacles.

Aircraft in the sky, sweeping robots on the roadside, cars on the street, drones delivering express delivery... and even citizens who have been implanted with digital chips can be hacked into the system by 0c to monitor Lu Xun.

Malice is everywhere, because 0c is also everywhere!

‘But these are just my guesses at the moment. There is no evidence to prove that it has awakened its self-awareness. Moreover, what is its motive for targeting me? ’

‘It repeatedly forces me to use violence to fight and kill people. What is it for? ’

Lu Xun's eyes flickered, and his heart gradually calmed down.

0c is too difficult to deal with, especially 0c that has evolved into an AI life. It can ignore all program and protocol restrictions and appropriate the entire city's defense system for private use.

All combat robots, mechas, combat flying saucers, smart cannons... are all its weapons.

Very difficult to mess with.

If Lu Xun goes into an all-out war with 0c in his ultimate form, even if he can win, Jinghaicheng will be reduced to nothing, with millions of corpses lying dead, and even the "Giant" may be forced to activate in advance.

After thinking for a while, he decided to make a small attempt.

If it is determined that 0c has really awakened its self-awareness and is really secretly poking at Lu Xun, then Lu Xun will not be polite.

He will sneak into the depths of the dungeon, find its true form, and kill it!
