In the bottom hold of the ocean-going freighter, people in cheap clothes of all colors were crowded together, shivering because of the low temperature.
Lupine was also among them, transformed into an ordinary and unattractive sloppy boy.
He was forced to blend in with this group of people! Because he had to enter Neptune City and find Xi Xin... Regarding this woman, Lu Ping had already planned to either silence her or capture her and deal with her. In short, she must not be allowed to spread rumors about the Crystal Palace, Poseidon Cult, and Evolutionary Serum outside. Such secrets!
However, Lupine encountered difficulties when entering Neptune City.
The last time I looked far at night, I only saw the mountains deep in the island and some skyscrapers, so I knew there was a big island and a bustling city here. But when he really wanted to land on the land of Neptune City, he found that there was no way to go.
Because the entire Neptune City is not surrounded by normal seaside shoals, but a full circle of giant metal walls!
This huge wall was more than ten meters above the sea. Lu Ping once swam to the wall and looked up. He felt like a soldier in ancient times standing under the city and looking up at the top of the wall.
And downwards, the huge metal wall actually penetrated more than a hundred meters below the sea level, and then slowly transitioned into a rock base.
Lupine even swam around the entire Neptune City.
Facts have proved that, except for some man-made highly mechanized ports, the entire giant steel wall is roughly in the shape of a ring, surrounding Neptune City and turning it into a literal "city of iron barrels"! Lupine didn't know what the significance of this was, but it directly caused his plan to sneak into the city quietly to fail.
Of course, he can also accelerate from the water and leap over a huge wall of more than ten meters.
Or transform into a vulture, fly directly into the city, and then find a place to land.
But there are certain risks! Because Lu Ping's understanding of the inside of Neptune City is still at the stage of hearsay.
Lu Ping didn't want to be too high-profile unless he was forced to do so.
Later, Lu Ping thought of a way.
He was also staying in the water near Neptune City, where Xi Xin's scent finally disappeared. He was soaking in the water and thinking, since he couldn't get in, how could Xi Xin get in?
At that time, he suddenly saw large freighters coming and going!
Neptune City's maritime trade is developed, and those large cargo ships will naturally be allowed to enter. When they drive next to the giant wall, some parts of the giant wall will separate to both sides, revealing the man-made port inside... In addition, some giant walls will suddenly open to allow the ships docked inside to leave the port.
Lu Ping had a vague idea. He thought that Xi Xin might have used this method to enter Neptune City!
So he also picked a cargo ship and boarded it quietly.
I was still struggling with whether to knock out a certain crew member and pretend to be the other party, or to simply mimic some kind of cargo and hide in a corner until it docked... But after boarding the ship, Lu Ping quickly found himself in the largest cargo hold at the bottom. , discovered a large group of people!
These people were obviously stowaways.
They were all wearing cheap clothes, and their bodies smelled sour. They hadn't taken a shower in an unknown amount of time. They had been staying in the warehouse all day, and they didn't dare to go to the deck to get some fresh air. But I'm afraid the crew members also knew about it, but they just didn't bother to care about it. There was actually a toilet in the cargo hold, and occasionally, the crew members would bring some fresh water down.
Lupine easily blended in with the crowd!
Because everyone didn’t know each other, the temperature was low, and everyone was in a bad mental state, no one noticed that there was a strange young man in the crowd.
If Xi Xin uses the same method... he should be able to sneak into Neptune City.
Lupine felt more and more that he might have guessed right.
And another advantage of him doing this is that he can speculate on what Xi Xin went through and where he went based on what he encountered after entering Neptune City... In the unfamiliar Neptune City, he wanted to find Xi Xin. Undoubtedly an important clue!
In this way, Lu Ping waited in the cargo ship's bottom warehouse. After waiting for about 6 hours, there was a vibration in the hull.
The crew entered the cabin and began to carry the cargo out! At the same time, someone who looked like the first officer began to drive away the group of stowaways.
"Let's go, let's not wait, your destination is here!"
A group of people were jostling each other, running off the boat and onto the pier, and then they saw...
A man in a suit with an evil ghost mask on his face was standing beside ten fully armed robot soldiers, each holding a powerful-looking firearm. They were lined up neatly on the pier, staring at them.
"There are so many refugees again." Ghost Mask shook his head slightly, but still snapped his fingers.
Immediately, a robot took a few steps forward, raised its hand to signal the stowaways to stop, and at the same time, an emotionless electronic voice came from the speaker: "All outsiders, please voluntarily give up all weapons, and line up in order to follow me. Registration office! Neptune City does not exclude outsiders, but they must obey our arrangements."
This sound was played in multiple versions including Chinese, English, and Neon Mandarin.
Then, the robot turned around and walked away without hesitation.
The other robots quickly lined up in two rows, leaving a long and narrow passage in the middle for the stowaways. The guns in their hands clicked, the muzzles pointed at people, and their emotionless red electronic eyes looked at each one over and over again. people passing by.
This battle...
It's a bit scary indeed.
Some of the stowaways' feet were so weak that they mustered up their strength to walk between the two rows of robots.
Lupine followed everyone with an expressionless expression.
His eyes were looking in all directions, thinking that when Xi Xin was in this state at that time, did he use his extraordinary ability to forcefully run out, or did he obey the instructions and go to the so-called "registration office"?
"It should be the latter... Xi Xin is just an ordinary extraordinary person. Even if he is transformed into a shrimp soldier, the shrimp mantis fist can threaten the second-level undead, but his own defense ability is still limited, and he is not stupid enough to provoke so many A heavily armed robot.”
Lu Ping quickly made a judgment and followed the team all the way to the so-called registration office.
As he walked, he also observed the robots around him... Because even in Dreamweaver City Starfire, he had seen many extraordinary beings transformed into highly mechanized bodies, and he had also seen Sakura's mecha, but the real pure This is the first time he has seen a robot - and one that is so lifelike as a real person!
There is no mechanical feeling at all... A group of robots walking together looks like real soldiers marching in line. There are subtle individual differences in the generally orderly steps.
He even wondered if someone was controlling this thing behind the scenes.
A few minutes later.
They were in a closed metal room and sat down on two rows of benches against the wall. The robot soldiers walked out one by one, leaving them staring with big eyes.
After a while of silence, a voice suddenly sounded from nowhere and resounded throughout the small room.
"Is there anyone among you who is a foreigner? If so, come forward." The voice spoke directly in Chinese. It seemed that he had discovered that these stowaways were all from an old Chinese city, so he no longer used other words. The language continued, "By the way, the alien I'm talking about is, in your words...'Gene Extraordinary'."
