Sister Ji poured wine while eavesdropping attentively.

A figure emerged from the darkness, with thick fingers pinching a glass of wine like dumplings.

Damn, a titanium-plated mogul!

The man was a bald-headed guy in a suit, looking a bit like the famous Marvel villain 'Kingpin', with gold rings on all ten fingers and a big gold chain around his neck. His skin appeared to be implanted, with gold beads embedded from his arms to his neck and all the way to his chin.

Seeing Sister Ji approaching, the bald mogul grinned, revealing a mouthful of gold teeth.

Damn, if we explode him, how much gold would we earn!

"Is Lady Red Dream speaking for that kid?" the bald mogul said ambiguously.

"Boss Hongg, you've been on the straight and narrow for over a decade, why dive into troubled waters again?"

Lady Red Dream pressed her legs together, her facial creases resembling wrinkles, and in the dim light, the gaps seemed to wriggle with viscous liquid.

"In the Nightless City, every security company stemmed from gangs; none are truly disconnected," Boss Hongg laughed, "Gao Jin reminds me of myself in the past—ruthless, evil, but not greedy, and that last bit is very important."

Lady Red Dream looked towards another shadow, smiling, "Elder Xuu, what's your take?"

Elder Xuu, the hefty elder from the Dragon Head banquet, suddenly shifted his gaze to Sister Ji, snorted coldly, "Madam, are all your subordinates so unruly?"

The focus of the eavesdropping Sister Ji suddenly swept by his gaze made her heart skip a beat, and her bones softened, almost collapsing. It wasn't her XP taking a sudden 180-degree turn, but a 'military machinery command' negative state had suddenly appeared on her status panel.

Military Machinery Command: Military mechanical privileges from ancient times cause a certain degree of disturbance with civilian mechanisms, all attributes -20%, mechanical efficiency -30%

Lady Red Dream waved her hand, and Sister Ji who was just standing suddenly vanished.

"It's all trivial matters, trivial matters."

Elder Xuu snorted, slammed his glass heavily onto the table, and the embedded engine in his abdomen erupted like some high-powered device, blasting a violent sound wave that made the surrounding furniture buzz.

"Gao Jin is a junior I have high hopes for; there's no reason to help outsiders instead of your own. Him—I'm determined to protect!"

"If you've got the guts, prove yourself on the battlefield. I'd like to see how Lady Red Dream, who's a back-end desk jockey, will deal with a seasoned frontline warrior like me."

Elder Xuu swung his arm and left.

"Old Xuu's temper is just as bad as ever; making money, why have such a temper," Boss Hongg said smilingly.

"Old Xuu still has nostalgia for the old days. These old fossils, expecting them to change their minds—their 'personality alteration' doesn't even work; they never connect with the net, nor use any market chips, their secrecy is still like the old military ways."

"Simple and crude, but effective."

Lady Red Dream maintained a calm expression.

"But if Old Xuu ever learns about Gao Jin's ties with the Mother City, his expression would be quite interesting," Boss Hongg laughed.

"Forget Old Xuu; our enemy has never been the Mother City. Though the Mother City destroyed the old era, it didn't settle accounts with any remnants from that time. Instead, it's the corporations, especially those seeking to break limitations, that continually squeeze our living space."

Lady Red Dream's face gradually grew somber.

"On this 9-3 Guanzhong Plate, there used to be two Mechanical Cities; now there's only one Nightless City. The other became a bona fide City of Crime."

"We absolutely cannot allow the same thing to occur in the Nightless City! Whoever dares mess with our minds, we'll put a hole in their heads!"

Lady Red Dream glanced towards the last shadow.

"We need a world of order; anyone resisting that order is our enemy!"

...

Sister Ji stood dazed at the bar counter, staring at the open 3D zone, lost in thought.

Did I just deliver the wine or not?

Luckily, the system panel never lies; the 'military machinery out of control' status proves it all.

Turns out I really did deliver wine just now!

'Damn, a level 33 Ancient Transformer, a level 35 Mechanical Sheriff, this quest chain is so hard!'

'Aren't they just like the Mechanical Blade Master, invincible monsters.'

'Even if you can see their HP bar, players at this stage can't possibly defeat them.'

Sister Ji hurriedly uploaded the screenshots and attributes to the group.

Sure enough, the group erupted in wails again.

'Little Angel hasn't been settled, and now two more high-level NPCs are here!'

'Ah, Blade Girl, my Mechanical Blade Girl, why is your chest so flat, it pains me so.'

'Flat chest is okay as long as the butt is perky.'

'Does this game release figurines? I want to buy some.'

Aside from a few players who focused on quests, most complained for a bit and then immersed themselves in the joy of photographing Xiao Yu's sister.

The group was full of various candid shots and Second Creation.

Incidentally, Second Creation already had a deadly effect, with all sorts of large-chested Mechanical Girls.

'A bunch of useless little SPs, why haven't you released the big handsome doujin I want, bullying me just because I can't draw?'

Sister Ji rolled her eyes, suddenly looked up to see a sinister Japanese woman calmly watching her.

"Miss Sakura, why are you here?" Sister Ji quickly greeted enthusiastically.

Unlike their type as pure workers, Miss Sakura was a standard close confidant of Lady Red Dream.

More importantly, she was also a Prosthetic Doctor.

In the Nightless City, Prosthetic Doctors are hidden roles, one you don't see if you don't do tasks—except for a certain Mr. G.

"Is there something, Miss Sakura?"

Seeing the other party silent, Sister Ji suddenly got a bit flustered; oh no, was her little stunt of skimming wine kickbacks discovered?

After all, it was all earned through her seductive charms!

"Follow me."

As soon as Miss Sakura finished speaking, she turned and left. Sister Ji was stunned and quickly followed her.

Miss Sakura's fingers were very strange, which everyone could see. And under her skirt, Sister Ji discovered that her feet had also been modified, resembling small feet entwined with countless metal wires, the lines turning automatically, making her movement seem like a ghost floating around.

'Mechanical foot binding, mechanical small feet, what kind of weird art style is this?'

Miss Sakura walked into the depths of the Red Dream Club, entering a cold room.

Sister Ji swallowed her saliva, feeling a bit chilly on her back.

The lights came on, and Sister Ji realized that this was an operating room.

"Do you want to become one of us?"

Miss Sakura suddenly turned around and asked.

"Of course, sister—no, little sister here is loyal to the club; heaven and earth can testify. In my heart, there is only one moon! That is the great Lady Red Dream..."

Sister Ji rambled on while wondering if she had been performing well recently and was about to receive a hidden mission.

Miss Sakura nodded, saying nothing. The next moment, steel wires shot out from the walls and ceiling, binding Sister Ji tightly. First, she was suspended in the air, then moved to the operating table.

"Oh my God, what are you going to do?" Even someone as strong as Sister Ji, this female predator, was stunned when faced with such a silent binding female pervert.

Unfortunately, Miss Sakura didn't answer. The wires tightened further, even cutting into the skin, and the surface of the 'steel wires' seeped with anesthetic liquid, making Sister Ji's consciousness increasingly heavy. The last thought in her head was—

'There's a bug in the anti-predator system of this game; men can't tease women, but women can bind women? What kind of lesbian investigator plot is this!'

'So if I tease a handsome guy in response, can I also exploit the bug?'

...

Amidst the fog, the Rich Lady Love Prototype walked forward slowly.

The distance in reality and the distance in the network are different.

For example, in reality, the Evil Gang is just a street gang.

But in Cyber Space, it ruled a city.

Another Nightless City.

The city was silent, the streets empty as Gao Gong walked into a restaurant. Inside, everyone turned their heads to look at him, their mouths continuously chewing, though it was impossible to tell what they were eating because blood kept spilling from their mouths.

'Brother, I feel something's wrong.'

Gao Gong exited the restaurant.

"What do you mean?"

'I feel this place is very strange,' Gao Yuanyuan's voice was filled with hesitation, 'It doesn't feel like the usual network, the sensory data here is more extensive and chaotic, and I can't see the fundamental framework of this network, as if a faint white mist is obscuring the underlying structure.'

"Hmm, not being able to see it is normal."

Gao Gong walked to Dalong Street, where the Evil Gang was located, and the street was still devoid of pedestrians.

With almost no warning, buildings on both sides suddenly exploded, one after another.

This explosion, compared to a normal one, was slowed down by thousands of times. Gao Gong could even see thumb-sized wood chips, marble-sized concrete, and fire expanding like a bubble.

"Interesting."

The incredibly beautiful young man grinned and stepped right in, with flames, stones, and debris floating in the air at an unusually slow pace.

This gave him plenty of time to avoid them.

'Brother~~'

Gao Yuanyuan was displeased with Gao Gong's suspense and acted coquettishly.

"Alright."

Gao Gong spoke while walking.

"This is indeed Cyber Space, but it's the Cyber Space within a dream."

"Cyber Space within a dream?"

Such surreal reality, Gao Gong had experienced many times before.

Cyber Hacker's virtual machine

Red Dream Club's local area network

And where he was now, it was a temporary Cyber Network.

A network for transferring temporary files using multiple human brains.

And the condition for going online wasn't connected devices, but sleeping, more precisely, dreaming.

In dreams, emotions can be real or fake, sensory data can be real or fake, Cyber Space can be real, and naturally, it can also be fake.

At the end of the street was a huge glass wall.

In the reflection on the glass was an unparalleled young man.

And behind the unparalleled young man were countless figures.

Thousands

Tens of thousands

'A group experiment of over ten thousand people, quite a crowd.'

Gao Gong punched the glass, and the next moment, everyone's face was covered with cracks that extended to their eyeballs.

The reflection in the eyeballs was also riddled with cracks.

The reflection of Gao Gong on the mirror, the 'Gao Gong' in Gao Gong's eyes, shattered simultaneously.

In the next moment

Everyone completely disintegrated.
