Chapter 16 Red and Green

"Send me to Xingyun Market and stop at the bottom 3 entrance."

Alex said goodbye to his sister with a feeling of loss, separated from the engineer B8 absentmindedly, and sat in the shuttle taxi in a daze. The scenery outside the window was filled with flowers and rain, and white horses were passing by. Only the blood on the broken round helmet could stop in front of his eyes;

The shuttle driver kept talking, but Alex seemed to only hear the little fox's words, "Thank you for saving us," echoed over and over again.

"The destination has arrived. Distinguished guest, do you really not want to try Herbert Star's spices? Now..."

Alex shook his head slowly, pushed open the car door and stood on the solid metal ground again. The noise outside filled his ears in an instant, filled with numerous hawking and sharp noises, which knocked him all at once.

Wake up. The shuttle car behind him fled as fast as the god of plague, and Alex had to wake up from the nightmare that had been haunting him all the way.

It is best not to dream in Nebula Market, whether it is a sweet dream or a nightmare, because dreams here will kill people. Nebula Market is the most commercial and realistic place in the entire universe. Everything is quantified, so there is no room for dreams that cannot be quantified.

Alex shook his head vigorously. He still felt that his eyes were a little blurry, probably caused by the tears that had flowed before but evaporated immediately. He stretched out his hand and rubbed it hard, and then vigorously rubbed the remaining part of his face except for the mask.

Alex forced himself to cheer up so that he could see clearly.

This is a market layered on top of each other, with large and small houses chaotically jostling each other like building blocks, extending from the abyss below to the almost invisible sky above. This turned out to be the auxiliary engine room of the starship, a huge cylindrical cabin

. Later, as technology advanced, auxiliary engines were no longer needed, and a need was raised to allow other races to have a place to trade. The engine was removed, and the space left became the Nebula Market.

Along the original ring-shaped layered partitions on the inner wall of the engine room, a prototype of a spiral market was built. Then they continued to extend to the center, setting up one platform after another, constantly expanding the area. All platforms have no bottom, but even if they fall,

, at the bottom of the Nebula market is an anti-gravity area, where the peripheral support system of the engine is still running normally. It absorbs and releases the reverse impulse like a spring, and can eventually catch the falling objects and levitate them.

up in the air.

We can't let them fall into the void of space.

Alex has been here many times to buy slave experimental products, but he is not very impressed by it. Trying to recall this part of the Nebula Market, he can clearly feel a disdainful emotion. Yes, composite evolved people like it.

Precise, simple, orderly arrangement, and stars

Every atom in the cloud market is the exact opposite; composite evolved people have a very high self-esteem and are unwilling to have in-depth interactions with other "lower" civilizations and races. However, in the nebula market, composite evolved people have to surround themselves with "lower aliens"

”, surrounded by an environment full of stench.

On the other hand, compound evolved people are also very clear about the value and role of the Nebula market - they may lack sympathy, but they definitely lack rational computing power. Even if technology is very advanced - or the higher the peak of technology rises, the

The larger the base for support, the more people will be needed to handle simple matters. In some alien civilizations, artificial intelligence is often used to solve these chores, but composite evolved humans resolutely prohibit artificial intelligence and would rather retain

Raw manpower.

As a result, this vacant auxiliary power cabin became a paradise for alien businessmen. Being able to enter the "castle" of the most powerful race in the universe means safety and durability to a certain extent. Safety and durability can be regarded as the most precious things in the universe.

resources, in order to obtain them, the merchants here used any means and committed crimes that are unspeakable in many civilizations.

The hustle and bustle here is an outlet, a by-product of criminal behavior.

Through encrypted communication, Alex updated the map again, and then walked straight in. If there was no incident about the Shattered Blood Helmet, he must be full of curiosity now and would be very interested in looking at the surrounding products and observing the aliens here.

He even bought some weird and interesting products. But now his mood has not fully recovered. Even if his eyes see it, his heart will not move. Except for occasionally identifying the direction, Alex hardly raises his head.

.

This is no different from what he did here in the past.

He lowered his head to avoid the low tarpaulin, pushed aside the advertising projections that were blocking the road, and moved along the road while everyone gave in. There was a long queue in front of the busy elevator, and everyone did not need to wait for him to speak. He spoke directly and

Actively gave up his seat so that he could ride immediately, and ride alone. Alex was not used to it and didn't like this kind of treatment. He just sighed softly in the noisy environment, and the people around him

The number of people immediately decreased by more than half.

So he turned on the silence mode.

There is no doubt that the Composite Evolutionary People are receiving attention here, and they are also protected. Although there has just been a blackout outside, and someone robbed the Composite Evolutionary People's dock warehouse and threatened them with flying mines and hostages to make a statement, in the Nebula Market

But nothing like this happened. Rather than protecting the composite evolved people, the businessmen here are more protective of themselves. They will spare no effort to stop any idiot who wants to offend the composite evolved people to avoid devastating revenge.

Therefore, Alex went very smoothly throughout the journey. He followed the navigation and came to a "tall" building. The reason why I say this is because this building with the sign "Zhenzhen Nameless Freight Department" occupies three floors vertically.

The space looks majestic given that Nebula Market is generally a low-rise shack. But on the other hand,

On the outside, this vertical rectangular building made of metal plates spliced ​​together was poorly constructed, as if it was covered with crooked and irregular patches. Alex took a second look and noticed that there were still stains on the outer wall of the "tall building".

There are some scars, and he probably went through a lot of black and white battles.

His sister Amy very thoughtfully left her detailed contact information. Alex knocked on the iron door with a specific sound according to that method, and the entrance quickly opened to welcome him in. There was another door inside. Waiting for the door outside.

After closing it to block any prying eyes, Alex knocked on the inner door in another specific way so that he could see the living people in this building.

"Welcome, distinguished guest, it is our pleasure to serve you."

Looking at the sound, Alex's heart beat faster, and he was directly attracted by the beautiful scenery opposite. It was a woman's face that was so beautiful that it seemed to be able to dispel any haze. She had lively red hair and green eyes like lake water, small and straight.

The bridge of your nose can be called stubborn, crystal clear and rosy

Her lips are as dangerous as the abyss. After passing the seductive chin, a thin silver chain is wrapped around the white and proud slender neck, and a small black pearl hangs. Then downward, the beautiful curves are pink.

The white dress was tightly wrapped up, like a priceless treasure.

Composite evolved humans are all created in petri dishes. Reproduction has never been a need, it is just a dormant function. A complete spiritual experience is very beneficial to composite evolved humans, but at best they can only stay at the level of appreciation.

Composite evolved people can but rarely choose to produce offspring through primitive methods, because naturally produced offspring can hardly meet the requirements for installing brain-controlled bodies and advancing. It is very unusual for such children to be born and go to a certain ending of elimination and death early.

Cruel things.

Therefore, appreciation belongs to composite evolved people, but heartbeat does not. Alex's expression was a little beyond the normal range, which attracted the attention of the red-haired woman. She wanted to ask, but Alex came in

She used the secret code of the Starship Destroyer Squadron, and she didn't dare to neglect it at all.

The Starship Destroyer Squadron is no joke. Although the power ranking of the Starship Destroyer Squadron is not high on the entire Evolution H starship, it is already the top existence for the "lower" residents like them, and it happens to be

Can hold them by the throat. On the Evolver H planet

Outside the ship, the fighter squadron can declare any ship as "suspected pirate/intruder/carrying dangerous goods", and the rest does not require any explanation. The red-haired woman does not want her career to be hit, and she also asks for permission.

This blow falls as much as possible on competitors.

"Mr. C2," since the class is marked on the uniform, people of other races can always have a way of addressing them. "I am red and green, I am..."

"Is the name Red and Green serious? Is it just the color of your hair and eyes?" Alex interrupted before she could finish.

"Yes, I'm serious. I had these two colors when I was born, and they are now my main features." Hongqi raised his hand to touch his hair and pointed to his eyes. At this time, Alex

Only then did she realize that her hand was a mechanical prosthesis, and she frowned slightly.

"I am not an artificial intelligence. Please rest assured. My mind, spirit and consciousness are all generated by purely natural methods. It's just that my body is severely damaged and can only be replaced by various devices." Honglu smiled slightly: "Mr. C2,

What can I do for you?"

"Provide a safe and confidential trading environment, OA level." Alex didn't know what this meant, so he did it exactly according to the method Amy left for him.

Honglu smiled and nodded, and immediately led Alex into a separate compartment. There were thick walls and heavy doors. After entering, only the military's encrypted communication mask was still usable, and the others -

- such as "cell phones" - all lost signal.

The house is decorated like a teahouse and is very comfortable, but the style is a bit mismatched. The heavy wooden chairs are covered with more than ten layers of soft animal skins. I don’t know if it is hard or soft, with a quiet plant scent or a wild animal scent.

Style. Ceramic tea sets are matched with composite insulated plastic cups. Next to the fragrant tea is cooling random flavor nutritious porridge. Multidimensional color block paintings are hung on the walls, and water seeds are dripping on the side...

Seeing this completely incompatible room, Alex tried hard to hold back his laughter, and finally moved away from being attracted by the charm of red and green. He pressed the furs, and then moved them away. At this time, he could

Feeling the texture and feel of the original wooden chair made him feel a little nostalgic for his original hometown.

"Okay, it seems that this is a place for trading." Alex opened the bag, took out the brain control body and various evolution plug-ins, and placed them directly in front of Red and Green. "That's it, I guess.

"

"Brain-controlled bodies? This is really rare." Honglu immediately leaned down and took a closer look. "To tell you the truth, the brain-controlled bodies out there are now very expensive, and even Jushou's brain-controlled bodies have reached an astonishing price.

.Ten times...it has been installed on the heads of ten people, and the adaptability is not high. The brain-controlled body is full of abnormal mental signals that cannot be cleaned, which can easily lead to mental breakdown. But some people are willing to take the risk

This risk."

"This piece is very good, take a look."

"Of course, I'll start checking now." Honglu pulled up the sleeve of her left hand, revealing a slender arm--it was indeed a mechanical prosthesis. She opened the cover of the forearm and manually lifted an ulna-long arm.

A black-purple lamp is placed above the brain-controlled body. A faint blue light emits from the lamp, constantly scanning the brain-controlled body back and forth.

"It has been polished to C3 level. It is obviously not new, but there is no residual mental signal in it, and the memory part is also blank." Red and Green put away the light tube, pondered for a while and said: "I want this brain-controlled body, Eleven

Thousands of computing power.”

"More than I expected," Alex said. "I want to hear your side of the story."
