Chapter 1069 – Chapter 158: Do Not Provoke
Dudian didn’t see any magnificent sky railway or shining steel buildings in the town. There were only ordinary concrete and brick bungalows. There were many ordinary people dressed in plain clothes, dudian rode a rusty bicycle through the streets. It was like the old feeling of the eighties. It was very different from the bustling city which was full of futuristic technology.
Dudian saw scavenger in ragged clothes lying on the roadside. The scavenger was as skinny as a stick. He was surrounded by flies. The civilians tried to avoid him as they covered their noses.
“Is the factory in the suburbs?”Dudian asked Rocco.
Rocco’s heart trembled as he replied: “Mr Dean don’t be impatient. The wilderness outside the factory is still a distance away from here. But with the speed of our Puss trains we will arrive soon.”
Dudian frowned: “This city was built by your ancestors right? If there aren’t so many people in the city then why do you want to encircle such a large area?”
Rocco wryly smiled: “In the past the population of our city was much more than now. Because of the pollution of the water resources, more and more people were infected by the nuclear radiation. It affected the fertility and the number of offspring slowly decreased. Moreover after the establishment of the central government the people from the edge of the city slowly migrated to the city center. Over time the towns near the city center became overcrowded. The suburbs became ghost towns and no one lived there. Only those damn scavengers lived in those ghost towns.”
Dudian was silent.
Suddenly there was the sound of gunshots coming from the front.
Dudian and Rocco looked forward and saw a middle-aged man dressed as a police officer roll down the window of the carriage. He opened fire and killed a scavenger who was blocking the way.
The carriage quickly passed by the dead scavenger. The body of a seven or eight year old child was lying on the ground. His eyes were fixed on one spot.
“Why are they called scavengers?”Dudian looked out of the window and asked Rocco.
Rocco slightly covered his nose and frowned. It seemed that he would smell something bad through the window. He didn’t hide his disgust and disgust when Dudian asked, “These things are like rats. They look for food everywhere. They eat whatever they can find. So they are called scavengers. Their bodies are full of bacteria and viruses. Mr Dean must not get close to them. Even a demon warrior like you may not be able to resist the viruses. Moreover, these things can not be killed. If you kill one batch then another batch will appear.”
Dudian couldn’t help but frown. He noticed that Rocco had called the scavengers “These things”twice in a row. They should be his own kind, scavengers were people who were seriously infected by nuclear radiation. Rocco and the middle-aged man in tuxedo who he had met before knew that scavengers would eat anything. They didn’t think that if they weren’t too hungry.., who would eat garbage?
Sympathy and compassion were for the weak. But in their eyes, these scavengers weren’t even considered weak. It was like people’s first reaction when they saw cockroaches was to pick up slippers and beat them to death.
This kind of regional discrimination had never disappeared since the old era. It was the same as “Foreigners”and “Country people”. Even the person who spoke wouldn’t feel that his words had a discriminatory meaning, but it was just a form of address.
Dudian felt dull as he thought of this. He leaned back on the seat. His body swayed slightly as his thoughts drifted away.
Half an hour later, the chariot drove from a dry plain to a green field. There were more than a dozen giant windmills outside the green field. In addition there were many solar panels on the ground to absorb heat energy.
Xuehan pushed the door open and jumped down first. Rocco followed after her.
Dudian also got up and bent down to get off the carriage. His feet naturally stepped off song Ming’s face.
Song Ming immediately got up after Dudian got off the carriage. He felt that his neck was a bit stiff like a pillow. He clenched his teeth and twisted hard. He heard the sound of his neck bones cracking. He felt much more comfortable, however, the burning pain on his face was still there. He clenched his fists. He didn’t dare to look at Xuehan outside the car. He glanced at her clothes and knew her location. He jumped out of the car and clenched his fists, his heart was filled with hatred as he stared at Dudian.
Dudian turned his head and saw song Ming’s eyes. He faintly smiled: “You can hate me but you can’t provoke me. Do you understand?”
Song Ming felt anger rush to his head. He was about to explode but he held it back. He clenched his fists and his body trembled. Dudian’s meaning was that he could hate him, but he couldn’t show it in front of him. Even if he hated him, he could only hate him from the bottom of his heart!
He didn’t put him in his eyes at all!
Xue Han looked at Song Ming. He was so angry that his fists were trembling. She knew that song Ming had always been proud of his face. But now he was completely looked down upon by others.
However, she was relieved to see that song Ming was able to hold back his anger.
“Mr. Dean, Please.”Rocco opened his mouth in time. It seemed that he was trying to smooth things over for song Ming but he was happy in his heart. In his eyes, song Ming was no different from Dudian. Both of them were ugly demon warriors? Bah!
Rocco led the way. Dudian and Xue Han followed. Song Ming was at the end.
Dudian suddenly slapped song Ming. Song Ming was caught off guard and fell onto the grass. He was stunned as he looked at Dudian. He was puzzled but soon his eyes turned red, he grabbed the grass on the ground and crushed it. His body trembled as he shouted: “What are you doing? !”
Xue Han and Rocco were also puzzled. They looked at Dudian but hesitated.
“I said that you can hate me but don’t provoke me.”Dudian retracted his hand: “It is wrong of you to show killing intent behind my back.”
Xue Han and Rocco understood. Xue Han quickly went up to help song Ming: “Let’s go back first. Follow me.”
Song Ming shook off her hand. He clenched his teeth and walked forward.
Rocco coughed: “Mr. Dean, this way please.”
They walked to the middle of the grass. There was a small bungalow made of metal behind a few rows of solar panels. Dudian used X-ray to scan the inside of the bungalow. It was an underground processing factory, there were many machines and workers.
There were guards in front of the bungalow. They stopped song Ming: “Please Show Your ID card.”
Song Ming shouted: “Are you blind? I just left this place. Can’t you see? !”
The few guards looked cold. One of them raised his laser gun: “If you don’t Show Your ID card then I will shoot!”
Song Ming was so angry that his body was trembling. He took out his ID card from his pocket and threw it at the guard.
The guard looked at him and nodded. He returned the ID card to Song Ming.
“Guard dogs wait for me!”Song Ming put away his ID card and angrily walked into the small bungalow.
Rocco took Dudian and Xuehan to the guard. He showed them a document. The guard opened it and nodded.
There was an elevator in the small bungalow that led to the underground factory.
Dudian saw a huge golden sculpture on the first floor of the factory. It was a handsome young man with an eastern face.
“This is the founder of our Rocco non consortium, Rocco Non Polk.”Rocco respectfully introduced the golden sculpture to dudian.
“I have seen a handsome man who is second only to the god of Science and technology. He is close to perfection.”Xuehan smiled as she looked at the face of the golden sculpture.
Dudian faintly said: “A perfect person is a god.”
“The god of Science and technology is a perfect God!”Rocco laughed.
“A perfect God is a devil.”Dudian smiled.
Rocco and Xue Han were stunned as the smile on their faces disappeared. Rocco frowned: “Mr Dean, Don’t talk nonsense. It is a serious crime to slander the god of science and technology. Alright, let’s go.” They took Dudian to the first floor of the underground processing factory.
They knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
Rocco pushed the door and entered. There was a rough man sitting on the revolving chair. There were two bottles of red wine on the table in front of him. There were several thick gold rings on his fingers.
“Manager.”Rocco complimented.
The man looked up and saw Dudian: “Is this the demon?”
“This is Mr. Dudian from the Devil Wall.”Rocco politely said.
The man stood up: “I know. There is nothing for you here. Go back.”
Rocco nodded and left the office. His task was over.
“You come with me.”The burly man said to Dudian and walked out of the office.
