The Wandering Planet

Chapter 224 Cyberpunk

It's no wonder that Liu Peiqiang couldn't see these mecha pilots. They were packaged as stars by the Pan Pacific Defense Corps, and they regarded every monster invasion as the best publicity to show the military industry capabilities behind them.

Another reason why the Mecha Hunters go up and fight the monsters anyway is: this is the best opportunity to promote their savior status, and the Pan Pacific Defense Corps needs this kind of show to maintain the support of the people, otherwise they But there is no way to continue to take this opportunity to amass a lot of money.

Mecha pilots are just their cash cows, not much different from entertainment stars under the film and television company.

As a matter of fact, they do promote these mecha pilots entirely as stars, often appearing on major TV shows, publicizing the record of each mecha as public information, and sometimes the mecha pilots even He can also openly disobey the orders of his superiors and take some very personal and heroic actions.

For example, the protagonist in the Pacific Rim movie, Raleigh Beckett, disobeyed orders to rescue a fishing boat without authorization, which caused serious damage to the dangerous homeless mech he was driving, and also killed his own brother.

These are the evil consequences of idolizing mecha pilots, but for the international consortium behind them, as long as they can make money, these are not a problem.

Under the operation of the capital behind, even if they find a mecha pilot who likes to sing, dance, rap, and basketball, Qiao Lv will not be surprised at all.

From the very beginning, this was a huge scam in the name of resisting alien invasion!

Whether it is the Mech Hunter project or the Wall of Life project, they are nothing more than a means for a few military-enterprise chaebols to defraud all human property!

Qiao Lu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The human civilization in this world is completely destroyed by our own people."

In the final analysis, it is the enemy from within human beings that has caused the current situation in the Pacific Rim world.

It is really not an easy task to make all mankind truly united.

"Let's go to Hong Kong too." Qiao Lu suggested.

It just so happened that the driver of the Eureka Raiders announced their final destination on TV, so Qiao Li took advantage of the opportunity and proposed to follow him to Hong Kong.

There is the main stage where the entire Pacific Rim story takes place, and it is also the only remaining war base of the Mech Hunter program.

To learn more about this Pacific Rim world, Qiao Lv must go to Hong Kong to investigate.

Liu Peiqiang also heard what was on the news, so he nodded and said, "I agree."

The two each collected some blood samples from the monsters that splashed near them, and then got on the hornet again and left.

As for the various organs on the monster's corpse, it is estimated that they will fall into the hands of black market dealers in the near future, and they can be bought directly at that time, without Qiao Li's trouble.

The world has become like this, and it is not completely bad for the wandering earth.

At least there are many things that can be solved directly with money.

On the second day, Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang arrived in Hong Kong in the Pacific Rim via an international flight, preparing to carry out further investigations here.

If it is said that in Sydney they only initially learned that the world is controlled by large consortiums. Then coming to Hong Kong can make Qiao Li deeply understand that Pacific Rim is actually a cyberpunk world.

When they came to Hong Kong,

The city is in the midst of a rainy night. Next to the majestic Jijia Hunter base, there is an extremely densely populated civilian living area.

There are dark streets, intertwined cables, and coquettish neon billboards, forming a unique landscape that looks like a slum but is avant-garde. Like living scars that keep growing, it looks out of place around the technologically-sounding Mech Hunter base.

Those old and dirty buildings make it hard to believe that it is already 2025. In this city, which is the headquarters of the Pan-Pacific Defense Corps, there are still places that resemble slums.

In reality, it's not that Qiao Lv has never been to Hong Kong, so he can pat his chest and say that Hong Kong on this Pacific Rim plane is worse than the real one, as if there are walled cities everywhere, hiding the secrets of this huge city. In the cracks.

The high-rise buildings and the streets are staggered vertically, and the church and the temple are only separated by a wall. You can feel the strong atmosphere of cyberpunk everywhere here, and this is something that neither the reality nor Hong Kong, which is wandering on the earth, can bring to people. .

Shaw Industries, which appeared in the second part of the Pacific Rim, is a large consortium that almost monopolizes any industry in this city today, and even behind the Mecha Hunter project, there are their sponsors.

All of these are undoubtedly telling Qiao Li: Welcome to the cyberpunk world!

Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang walked on the streets of this cyberpunk city, looking at this city that is completely different from the Hong Kong they knew with emotion.

"I have also been to Hong Kong before the solar helium flash crisis." Liu Peiqiang said, "But it is really different from what I remember."

Qiao Lv half-jokingly said: "There is no way, even in the same city, there are great differences in different planes. If you compare it with Hong Kong in the Resident Evil plane, you will be fine here .”

In the Resident Evil plane, Hong Kong has already been turned into a zombie-infested ruin, and of course it can't be worse than this world.

It's just that looking at the numb eyes of the people around, it makes people feel that they are walking dead no matter what, like playing a trick in a movie, living every day feebly.

The most eye-catching place in the city, apart from the Mecha Hunter war base near the coast, is a strange ancestral temple in the center of the city.

Unlike temples of any other religion, the main body of this ancestral hall is actually built with the skull of a monster. The entrance of the ancestral hall is the mouth of this skull, making people who enter it look like they were eaten by a monster.

Despite such a hideous and terrifying shape, there is still an endless stream of people who go in to pay homage.

They were monster worshipers who had also appeared in Sydney before, and this ancestral hall made of monster remains was a holy place in their minds.

If it were changed to reality or wandering on the earth, this kind of cult would have been severely banned by the government, how could it be so popular?

However, in this world, it exists so openly and aboveboard that it even attracts so many people's pious worship.

Perhaps this world is indeed rotten to the extreme.
