"You don't look familiar."
"I just came to this city."
"No wonder, what do you want to drink?"
"Just one, a strong one."
"Try this, it's our signature drink."
"Alright."
Liu Ping took a sip from the glass on the bar counter.
"This wine is not bad, you should have one too, it's my treat." He said to the bartender.
"Boss, you're so generous." The bartender poured himself a glass and placed it on the cabinet behind him.
Right now, he was still mixing drinks for another customer, once he's done, he'll naturally come and have this drink.
Liu Ping looked around.
The bar was very lively.
Under the illumination of the neon lights, the dancers twisted their waists along with the vibrations of the bass. Their faces were exquisite, and their figures were slim. There was nothing different about their bodies. Even their movements and expressions were synchronized without any error.
"Looks good, right?" The bartender finished mixing the drinks and came over to ask.
"Quite good." Liu Ping said.
"Our lady boss custom-made an advanced bionic version, it's the best in the entire city 37." The bartender said.
Liu Ping was about to reply when the entire bar suddenly burst into a loud noise.
What's going on?
He looked towards the booth not far away.
He saw two burly men fighting, quickly knocking over the tables and chairs around them.
The people around them cheered loudly, they even started betting on who would win and who would lose.
Everyone seemed to be used to this.
A while later.
The two burly men fought more and more fiercely, it had already affected Li Ji on the dance floor.
The bartender frowned and said, "It's not a good idea to disturb the lady boss's dance, these two guys are really asking for trouble."
As soon as he said that, a dancer was knocked over by the two men who rushed over, her rhythm was immediately affected and her movements were out of sync with the other dancers.
All the dancers stopped at the same time.
The leader of the dancers walked forward, one in each hand, grabbed the necks of the two burly men and pulled with force.
"Miniature artificial Stellar Drive Furnace." The bartender praised.
The next second.
The heads of the two burly men were twisted off.
Liu Ping saw it clearly, he saw that there wasn't a single drop of blood at their broken necks, only long soft tubes.
Metal parts were scattered all over the ground.
The dancer placed the two heads on the table and coldly said: "Bandit Dragon, Zhao Laosi, are you not giving me face by causing trouble at my place?"
"Liji, you know me. My filter never works because I don't want to lose the pleasure of getting drunk. I didn't mean to cause trouble here." One of the heads hurriedly said.
"But you're spoiling my fun," said the dancer.
"I really did drink too much. How about this, I'll pay for all the losses today. Also, I'll treat everyone here to a glass of wine," the head quickly said.
The dancer nodded in satisfaction and looked at the other head.
The head said, "Do you know who I am? It's your honor to drink here. Stop f * cking pretending in front of me. "
Before she finished speaking, Dancer suddenly reached out and squeezed.
The head was directly pinched open, and the face was twisted out of shape. Crystals and parts fell out of the mouth one after another, scattering all over the table.
The dancer tore open the skull and took out a transparent container with numerous long threads inserted into it.
The transparent container was filled with culture fluid, and inside it was a human brain.
The dancer turned around and said: "Someone, go inform the city guard commander that his brother is causing trouble at my place. I'll wait 5 minutes for him. If he doesn't show up in 5 minutes, his brother's brain will be gone."
At the booth just now, several young people hurriedly turned on their communicators and quickly said something.
The dancer threw the human brain to the bartender and slammed the table: "Bandit Dragon said to treat everyone to a glass of wine."
Everyone cheered.
The music started again.
The tense atmosphere from before slowly disappeared.
"Liu Ping."
A female voice sounded in Liu Ping's mind.
This was telepathy.
Telepathy was a basic function of the human body. Even normal people with clear minds could produce this kind of power. They didn't need to speak, they could only use telepathy to communicate with other souls.
Liu Ping looked at the baby girl in his arms.
"Hungry? or do you want to change your diaper? "he asked.
"No need, I just have an idea" the baby girl said.
"What idea?" Liu Ping asked.
"I also want a body like that. This body is really inconvenient right now," the baby girl said.
Liu Ping looked at the dancer.
High-grade bionic materials, stellar mode furnace, quantum nerve connection technology, emotional perception and expression system, brainwave translator, motion control center, alloy skeleton …
"This isn't suitable for you," Liu Ping said.
"Why?" the baby girl asked.
"The weakness is the brain. The brain is placed in a petri dish. This model is prone to problems during transplantation. I'll make you a better one later." Liu Ping said.
"You?" the baby girl didn't believe him.
"That's right, but first we have to understand this world. Then, we have to find a way to get some money before we can do this." Liu Ping said.
He raised his glass to the bartender.
"Another glass?" the bartender asked.
"Yes, thank you. Also, I want to ask, I'm in the technology field. I want to know where my peers in the human body technology field are." Liu Ping asked.
"If you have the money, just ask that book," the bartender said.
Liu Ping was stunned and said: "I'm sorry, you mean"
"The Book of the Sea. Our city's Book of the Sea is in the square two kilometers away. As long as you can afford it, it's more valuable than any of your peers," the bartender said.
Liu Ping went silent and looked at the void of space.
A line of burning text appeared there:
[The Laws of the Four Saint Pillars still exist in this world]
[As a Law, they have no stance and will not be viewed as an enemy by the umbrella bearer]
Liu Ping nodded.
"Thanks, see you later." he put his glass down and casually placed a small crystal on the table.
"Welcome again." the bartender smiled.
Liu Ping left the bar.
He identified the path and quickly arrived at the square.
A thick book was floating in the middle of the square, occasionally giving off waves of energy.
Liu Ping put his hand on the Book of the Sea.
Lines of small words quickly jumped out and appeared on the paper.
[Welcome back]
[The current world's highest currency is still Gold]
[All the knowledge in this book has accumulated a large amount of Gold, you can withdraw it at any time]
Liu Ping went silent.
In other words, in the current world, the only two recognized powers are the umbrella bearer's Occultism power.
And the world's Four Saint Law power.
This made it a little easier for him to move around …
While Liu Ping was silently thinking, 7-8 men with guns suddenly appeared behind him.
"You want to use this book?"
Liu Ping stepped aside.
"No, we're actually looking for you" one of the men raised the submachine gun in his hand.
Liu Ping glanced at it.
That's right, this world has already broken through the limits of handguns, firearms have developed very quickly.
With the help of the Book of the Sea, they established a post-destruction civilized world and were keen on body modification.
Why do they want to modify their bodies?
While Liu Ping was thinking, the people opposite him spoke again.
"Hehe, it's already so late, and you're still looking for the Book of the Sea, you must be a coward"
"You must have money on you, it's best if it's Gold!"
"Hand over the money, don't try to pretend that you have a powerful prosthetic body, I just scanned you, you have a mortal body"
The few of them surrounded Liu Ping.
Liu Ping sighed tiredly and put his hand on the Book of the Sea again.
"Withdraw some Gold"
He silently said in his mind.
The Book of the Sea trembled, a line of text quickly appeared on the page: [How much do you need?]
Liu Ping said: "Just enough to help me out"
[Understood]
All the text disappeared.
The next moment …
A golden light suddenly appeared in the sky, looking as majestic as a mountain.
Rumble!!!
The golden mountain fell and hit the square hard, stirring up strong winds and dust.
Liu Ping was stunned for a while and could not help but say: "… I just want some gold to help me out."
A line of small text appeared on the Book of the Sea: [Solved.]
Liu Ping looked at the Book of the Sea, then at the towering golden mountain.
"Crushed people to death again … Sigh, why did I say 'again'?"
Liu Ping murmured.
He shook his head and glanced at the golden mountain.
Occultism magic
None!
In an instant, the golden mountain disappeared.
The square returned to silence.
