Chapter 113 Beria's
'Ark of the Covenant/Archive'? I haven't heard of it. Is it the dialect of 'filing cabinet/archive' in Earth 01...
In short, it means that collectors have a way to get rid of the control of filing cabinets?
Well, at first Li Pan couldn't understand what these people were trying to do by quitting such a vicious company like Monster Inc., but now he was a little moved.
Let’s not talk about the company’s various businesses themselves and the near-death risks.
Let’s just talk about this monster, the filing cabinet/archive.
Resurrection on the spot! Reshape your true body! And the physical consumption caused by other monsters is instantly reset! Free whoring and cheating! It’s so awesome!
Maybe other employees who join the company will also feel that repairing their lives and starting over again is a new beginning! It’s simply a benefit for the company!
But is it really such a good thing?
Is it really free of charge?
joke! Li Pan is no longer a primitive man! To be honest, after all these years, every time someone calls him and says congratulations on your winning, our company has decided to give back to old customers and give you a few months' worth of phone calls, millions of traffic, and a hundred sports cars for free. Slap along the phone cord!
You just deceived my feelings, but you actually insulted my intelligence? ?
What's more, let's not consider the cost of using filing cabinets.
Just the shredder/existence deletion placed next to it is creepy enough.
To this day, Li Pan still remembers the tragic scene when the last company manager was strangled and killed by a paper shredder and beaten into ashes.
To be honest, when he asked Daxiong for help in joining the job, he just wanted to work part-time, earn a living and repay the loan in installments.
If he hadn't been slapped into disgrace at that time, he would have died anyway, and he was really desperate. Li Pan would never have signed a contract to sell himself and become a company dog.
It has nothing to do with dignity.
Doing odd jobs, picking up rags, and being mercenaries, although it is poor, hard, and dangerous, at least your life is still yours.
But these days, once you become a dog for the company, you have no choice.
There are hundreds of thousands of Tokugawa corpses outside that are still cold. Isn’t there still someone who still doesn’t understand this truth?
Thinking about it this way, Li Pan can completely understand the mood of someone within the company who wants to switch jobs as a collector.
Of course, he can also understand that 01 is determined to scare the monkeys and eradicate the collectors and their hidden supporters even if they crush the entire earth.
The issue of filing cabinets is undoubtedly at the heart of Monsters, Inc.
Every company must have a general manager, obviously based on the filing cabinet rule.
In a situation like Li Pan's, you must first archive your resume before you can be selected as the acting general manager.
So now that three plane companies have been acquired, it is enough to show that collectors have indeed mastered the core mechanism of filing cabinets/archiving to some extent. They have not only gotten rid of it, but can even use it for themselves.
This is no longer a pure market competition. Collectors are attacking everywhere, poaching people from companies, acquiring company assets, and snatching monsters from companies with great fanfare.
This is already draining the firepower and declaring war with the head office.
The existence of collectors is the greatest disrespect for the company.
After trying to understand all this, Li Pan was silent for a while, and did not dare to continue this topic.
Who knows if 01044 accidentally let it slip, or if he told it to him on purpose?
The other party is a cadre from the 01 head office! If you doubt his loyalty, deliberately tempt him, and fail the test, wouldn't he be deleted? ?
So Li Pan quickly seized the opportunity to show his loyalty.
"Be careful!! There are landmines!!"
01044, "Landmines?"
There really are. Although there are magic devices along the way, old-fashioned pressure-sensitive triggering landmines are suddenly buried between the floor tiles, and they are buried in the gaps between several floor tiles. between. This style of ancient medieval castle has a very flat ground. If you don't look carefully, you will have to step on it.
I have to say that this collector is quite insidious. People also knew that the company would probably send professional occult experts to deal with the magic workshop, so they suddenly played a dirty trick.
What? How did Li Pan see it? Wow, don’t look down on people too much, okay? After all, mine clearance is part of his undergraduate major, right...
Li Pan lay on the ground and took a look,
"It's an old-fashioned fragmentation infantry mine. It has no production serial number. It was probably produced by a local private workshop."
01044 was curious, "Why am I... Your prosthetic body was not scanned?"
Li Pan explained, "We can't rely too much on civilian scans. Nowadays, advanced prosthetic bodies are said to be equipped with prosthetic eyes and built-in scanning, but that is just a marketing ploy. Level 4 and 5 implants are actually only the most advanced ones. Basic lidar, some simply based on algorithm optimization of network signal feedback, can be very accurate and quickly linked when scanning civilian electronic equipment on nearby networks, network ports and baseline loops. However, the more complex the design of electronic equipment, the more likely it is to be detected
. The greater the possibility of destruction, being shut down, and being hacked, so the design idea of military equipment is actually to be as simple and practical as possible, and it can also operate normally in a battle situation where the network is disconnected. For example, if you look at these old-fashioned landmines
, From the beginning, there was no network link remote monitoring and active triggering function. The design idea was very simple. It was the most basic pressure sensing element. It also directly used a synthetic plastic shell and an ECCM coating to prevent radar waves. This was specially used to delay the enemy. For military advancement and peripheral warning, just audible sound is enough, and there is no need to pursue too much power. It can be done very covertly." 01044 was also impressed, "Can
you
cancel it?"
Li Pan shook his head,
"I didn't Even if you bring professional equipment, you don’t know how sensitive the pressure parameter settings are. Moreover, if you find one mine, there may be a hundred around you. It seems that collectors have also recruited professionals to provide technical support." 01044 suggested
, "What about flying there?"
"Fly? How fast?"
01044 took out a propeller from his bag and held it in his hands, and he floated up. It seemed to be similar to an anti-gravity spine...
Li Pan looked around. Environment,
"It's too slow. The interior space of this castle is too narrow. If sensors or flea mines are buried against the wall, the opponent may plot against you." 01044 nodded and said, "I understand, then there is no need to
waste
time sneaking in. Just knock on the door. Let's do it."
Then Li Pan saw her pick two Philosopher's Stones and stuff them into her mouth, bite them into pieces between her teeth, chew them while swallowing them raw, and the pink juice that filled her mouth overflowed from the corners of her lips. Come, and then find a gas welding gun from the luggage bag. Only the tip of the gun is broken. The gas pipeline is broken. He holds up the barrel of the gun and blows a breath, and a bright yellow flame ignites at the muzzle of the gun.
Then 01044 turned to Li Pan and smiled,
"Come behind me."
Li Pan quickly took a step back and saw her raising the gas welding gun, pointing it at the castle in front of her, pressing the switch, and said with a smile,
"The Holy Flame of Theophilus."
Golden flames spurted out from the muzzle of the gun! It was like a golden wave that filled the city wall in an instant, and the flames of a prairie fire spread its wings like an awakened phoenix! The golden light blooming in front of my eyes instantly ignited the bricks and stones in the city into fire! The monstrous heat wave ignited the majestic and huge castle into a huge bonfire. The entire building roared and cracked in the sea of fire, like a huge monster roaring and wailing in the flames, and was burned to death!
Didn't he agree to knock on the door first? He opened the door first. This style was really corporate...
Li Pan was hiding in the sky and shivering. Oh, it wasn't him who was shaking, it was the formal clothes on his body. shake. Li Pan could feel the 'fear' in the formal suit, as if this suit of clothing would abandon him at any time and escape.
This is the first time that this has happened to the formal suit. It seems that this holy flame can cause fatal damage to the 'formal suit/guardian'.
It's really incredible, 01044 is a cadre, and he is also a clone chained with a prosthetic body. After a few hours of hurried preparation and a random magic, he can scare the formal uniform into this. It seems that there are really many powerful people in the plane of heaven...
After burning like this for about ten seconds, 01044 released the spray gun switch. The flame was extinguished in an unscientific way, but this kind of firepower was enough to burn the whole thing. The workshop was burned down, all the mine traps and magic circles were destroyed, and the entire main body of the building was burnt to black, leaving only the dry and broken frame of the castle.
"It seems there is no one..."
01044 threw away the used spray gun and found a light bulb from the bag. A philosopher's stone was stuffed in the light bulb. He held the light bulb in his hand and illuminated the milky white color. Brilliant, stepping into the charred ruins to search.
Li Pan followed up with a hammer in hand and asked,
"Did you see the starship jump and move in advance? It seems that the collector doesn't have the strength to confront the company head-on..." But before
he could finish his words, 01044 suddenly Gotta stop.
Then Li Pan also saw it. He just took one step, and the moment he walked into the charred ruins, a bed suddenly appeared in the castle.
A huge bed of fat, sebum-like organic matter...or a throne? And there was someone lying on the bed...what the hell was he?
Humanoid? It can't be considered humanoid, it looks like it should be some kind of mammalian creature that has been skinned, or has no skin in the first place... monster. On its neck, which may be the head and face, there is a meat fan that opens and closes vertically. I don’t know if it is a mouth or something else. If that part is a head, there are two goat-like things on the top of its head. The horns, the round and huge belly towered up, and it was unknown whether it was fat, sarcoma, or a fetus. The balloon-like swollen body also had soft limbs that resembled goat hooves at the end, which were covered by huge sebum-like bodies underneath it. The throne is obscured and cannot be noticed unless you look carefully.
Li Pan could only describe it to this point. Anyway, in front of him, it was a scene that was difficult to express in words. He could only estimate based on experience that this thing must be about six to seven meters high. If it stood up, it would be about It is the size of a large ship-borne SMS. With such a large tonnage, it is estimated that it cannot be killed by an RPG, and it will have to be bombarded from the ship.
But just in case, Li Pan asked quietly,
"01044, can you also see this ghost thing? I mean, there should be nothing wrong with my eyes, right?"
01044 ignored him and stared at it. The big-bellied goat monster said,
"Belia...how long have you...been here...no...which generation is this?"
"Hehehehehe..."
Suddenly, silver bells came from all directions, and seemed to come from the depths of my mind. like laughter.
"Long time no see Maria, what kind of magic are you going to use to expel me this time? Let me be surprised too."
01044 fell into deep thought for a moment and frowned,
"Interesting... I haven't seen you for centuries, and you have made some friends. New friend... So what do you want to give birth to?" "
Hehehe, guess what, wouldn't it be boring to reveal the answer..."
These two people, two monsters, chatted in dialect for a while. , mixed with many otherworldly nouns that obviously did not belong to the pronunciation of human vocal cords. Li Pan listened for a long time using the common language of all heavens that he learned in the military academy, and he could only barely make out that the monster was indeed pregnant and not obese... But
he He wasn't here to listen to anyone's chatter, so Li Pan weighed the hammer in his hand and said,
"Hey 044, how about I pull the monsters and you deal with them?" "
Wait," 01044 shook his head, "Don't take action."
" Are you coming alone? Can you handle it?"
Beria looked like a boss in the group version, so Li Pan naturally didn't dare to take it lightly.
At this time, he had gathered all his true energy, holding a hammer in one hand and putting it in his pocket, always ready to transform into a handkerchief knight, then attack with a speed of Mach 5 per second, and finally hit his head with the True Dragon Pojia Sage's Hammer! Get the first kill!
But 01044 still shook his head,
"It's going to give birth tonight. Let's wait and see what it can give birth to."
Li Pan frowned,
"Huh? No, why do we have to wait? This Why don't you take advantage of its illness and kill it?"
01044 took out a piece of glass shard from the bag, held it in front of his eyes, and explained while looking at Belia,
"These demons from other worlds can't even cast the projection of monsters on the earth. Used. If they want to move freely, they also need a suitable container in order to exert their power and change the rules of the world. Well... you can understand that they are not accustomed to the climate, so they also need suitable prosthetics. But only human
beings Their bodies, or artificial prosthetics, cannot exert their original power, so often in the early stages of their arrival, they will only carefully select some apostles from the indigenous people as their puppets. Let these apostles represent them Take action, prepare a suitable container, and then come as a clone."
Li Pan understood,
"So this apostle is giving birth to Beria's true body? Okay, then when it is born, I will swing it with a hammer... ..."
01044 changed three pieces of broken glass and looked at it, then shook his head,
"No, it's useless. It has completed the ritual of reincarnation at least three times. Among all the big demons I have expelled, this has already been completed. The one with the highest speed and closest to its true form.
I think Belia has been hiding in 0791 for a long time, and has been accepting human sacrifices for a long time. With its current strength, it can tear open the gap and come down at any time. 0791 has become a hell belonging to it.
With my current preparations, it is difficult to completely banish it."
When Li Pan heard this, everyone was dumbfounded.
"Ah, ah? No, so why don't you kill it while it's sick..."
01044 opened the package and took off the philosopher's stones from the alchemy tools one by one,
"I can't win this time, so I have to watch Let’s see what kind of thing it gives birth to. This way we can be prepared to deal with it next time.
It doesn't matter if it's just a big demon, but if it's not... Haha, what on earth requires three times of big demons to conceive... Hehehe, I'm
really curious..."
She laughed?
Well, 01044 actually laughed. , staring at Beria's belly with curiosity, as if he had discovered a new species of elementary school student.
"...Hey! Damn it! Hello!
Li Pan was shocked, "
No!" curious? Just out of curiosity, you have to let it give birth to a more awesome demon! ? What if you can't handle it after birth? What about 0791? ? "
01044 didn't even look at Li Pan, just shrugged,
"So what, you have to be serious tomorrow anyway, right?" Whether we win or lose tonight, the outcome of this world will not change in any way. "
Hey fuck! " But I don’t want to show this kind of BADEND! "
Li Pan knew that he couldn't count on her, so he kept doing nothing. He put his handkerchief on his face, picked up the Sage's Hammer and rushed to attack the monster! 01044 didn't stop
him, but reminded him,
"Be careful with it. aura. "
What halo?
Then Li Pan heard a chant.
A purple halo of light suddenly bloomed above Beria's head and between the goat's horns. The halo of light expanded rapidly like a blooming electromagnetic pulse, blooming and spreading like a garland. Come, like the waves caused by a stone falling into the water, layers of purple fire waves, filled with astonishing magic energy, hit your face...
"Fuck? "
Unexpectedly, Li Pan felt his whole body tremble, and then his formal clothes tore off! He left the body! It seemed that his own skin was too scared, so he simply took it off from his body! He ran away in front of the battle! "Fuck
. "
So Li Pan only had time to block his vital points with the Sage's Hammer, and was hit by the 'halo'! The Sage's Hammer instantly exploded into pieces! The pink magic energy was slightly resisted, but Li Pan's whole body was still blown away. The surging magic fire and the shock wave hit each other! It was blown up all of a sudden!
"Fuck——!" "
This is the first time that Li Pan was directly knocked out of the handkerchief knight state! The handkerchief flew far away, and his whole body was exploded by a purple halo, causing thick smoke and flames! 01044 was already prepared, from the
handbag Pulling out a tablecloth and covering Li Pan's body, it instantly extinguished the purple demonic flames on his body. But just like that, all the skin and flesh on his body were burned away. The whole person was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, exuding a smell of barbecue. .
“Hey shit! Xiaohei! What are you doing! "
Li Pan puffed out black smoke from his nostrils and turned around to scold his formal suit.
But the formal suit was hiding in the corner with his head in his hands, as if he was suffering from depression and refused to come out.
01044 was not surprised,
"Your guardian used to He must have been fatally injured. Their courage is actually very small. If they almost die once, they will be tempted to run away when faced with a desperate situation. You have to be careful when using them. If that doesn't work, just change them.
"Fuck down! " You should tell me in advance! This is not a scam! "
Li Pan rushed forward in anger, held down his formal clothes, and took out the sword pill from his trouser pocket. He turned around and glared at Beria with a murderous look, spraying black ash from his mouth and nose, "What the hell
? Do it head-on with me, right? look! Let’s see who can do who! Kill the ghost! kill! "
Jianwan takes action! A brilliant light suddenly appears! The flying sword leaps! A sword rainbow is drawn in the sky!
"Haha! Beria
chuckled lightly, with two pieces of meat on his face and a deep hole like a morning glory appearing on his head, and he actually swallowed the sword light in one gulp! 01044 was not
surprised at all, still holding the glass piece beside him. Looking at it,
"It has been reincarnated so many times and has long been the demon lord of this gap. Don't use the rules of other worlds to challenge others..." "
Ah——!" ! ! "
The bloody wind roared loudly, and there was a shrill scream of fingertips tearing open the glass. In the river of blood rising into the sky, a head with goat horns and morning glory was cut off by a golden light.
01044,"...Oooh. "
Li Pan grabbed the flying sword pill, made an uncivilized gesture, and fell to the ground.
Well, his round is over...
