Through Liu Feng's connections, Gao Jianfei emptied the warehouses of 10 supermarkets in Beijing!
For example, a bottle of mineral water costs 1 yuan, but Gao Jianfei pays 5 yuan; a pound of rice costs 2 yuan, but Gao Jianfei pays 10 yuan directly...
Thus, Gao Jianfei's den of iniquity was filled with rice, grains, various frozen foods, Wuliangye liquor, Moutai liquor, whiskey, Tieguanyin tea, Da Hong Pao tea, and even various furniture and appliances...
A variety of things...
The intelligent program was completely baffled by Gao Jianfei's actions... "Dear user, do you want to do business?"
Of course, what surprised Liu Feng was not Gao Jianfei's crazy purchase of billions of RMB, but where the items Gao Jianfei purchased were stored.
When they were shopping, Liu Feng followed Gao Jianfei the whole time. He was shocked to see supermarkets being emptied out. Gao Jianfei hadn't even used a truck. Where did all the massive amounts of supplies go?
This time, Liu Feng witnessed Gao Jianfei's mystery and terror once again.
He was so frightened that he dared not ask Gao Jianfei any more questions.
There was only one thought in my mind... I, Liu Feng, must have had some incredible luck to have met someone as extraordinary as Jian Fei.
In the evening, Gao Jianfei returned to Liu Feng's courtyard house. He first had dinner with his friends and family, and then Liu Feng arranged for everyone to have a small room.
After settling in, Gao Jianfei, Liu Feng, and some military cadres monitored changes around the world in a makeshift computer room.
Based on announcements from ***, England, and Brazil, the virus has been forcibly contained.
It turns out that the germs only stayed in London, Tokyo, and Rio de Janeiro for a very short time before disappearing into the air, thus preventing them from spreading to surrounding cities in time.
With the intervention of the United Nations and the signing of an agreement by the leaders of the United Kingdom, England, and Brazil, a large number of soldiers began to build high walls and forcibly blockade the three cities of Tokyo, London, and Rio de Janeiro!
The mutated humans frantically tried to rush out of the city, but were suppressed by bullets, grenades, and bombs raining down from the sky.
Millions of people were mobilized to build high walls, and in just one day, three cities were completely overrun!
That wall, about 10 meters high and 40 centimeters thick, separated three cities ravaged by germs from the rest of the world.
They were isolated.
The soldiers guarded the outside of the wall, setting up electric fences, warning lines, and temporary bunkers.
Humans who had rushed from other places, whose relatives and friends were trapped in the three cities, cried and begged the military to rescue their loved ones. But how could such a request be granted? The humans stranded outside the high walls were forcibly expelled by the military!
There were even clashes, which were eventually quelled by the military's machine guns and sniper rifles.
After the high wall was completed, military fighter jets began dropping incendiary bombs and air-to-ground missiles into the three cities.
Large numbers of mutated humans were blown to smithereens, and the city began to burn.
The once bustling cities of Tokyo, London, and Rio de Janeiro have been reduced to terrifying hells!
After the planes left, the soldiers responsible for monitoring the high walls could still hear beast-like roars coming from the city that had been invaded.
A few days later, apart from the three cities that had been shut down, the rest of the world's cities were spared from the ravages of the germs. The world gradually returned to its former stability.
Social order began to return to normal.
Police and military forces in every country and city around the world began to gradually withdraw. People began to return to normal life.
Three days later, good news arrived...
After dozens of top scientists around the world worked day and night, they finally developed an immune capsule against that terrible virus!
Gao Jianfei learned about this almost immediately.
Back at the base, Zhuo Xiaowei called Gao Jianfei. The base's superhumans had found the corpses of some carriers of the pathogen and carefully brought them back to the base. The base's scientists performed autopsies, drew blood samples, extracted cells, and conducted bone marrow analyses. Then, using the energy of the orange ore and years of deliberate research into genetics, the scientists developed a "drug" to immunize against this pathogen! And it has already been tested; the "drug" is indeed effective in resisting the pathogen.
Three days later, every country in the world received a batch of immune 'medicines' for free and distributed them to its citizens.
With the 'medicine' available, the panic on Earth has been completely alleviated.
Everything has returned to normal!
However, Gao Jianfei's friends all preferred to stay in Beijing and be with him.
During this time, Gao Jianfei also traveled alone to the three cities of Tokyo, London, and Rio de Janeiro. He witnessed firsthand the high walls and the armed personnel wearing gas masks outside the walls.
The high walls were constantly being reinforced and raised. More and more machine gun bunkers were also being built outside the high walls.
Of course, Gao Jianfei's visit to those three cities wasn't purely for sightseeing. He deployed a large number of Level 1 ghosts outside these cities, and then sent 300 Level 1 ghosts back to each city for monitoring.
Gao Jianfei couldn't possibly enter those dead cities himself to investigate, but he would inevitably have to send level 1 ghosts into them.
One early morning, the voice of the intelligent program rang in Gao Jianfei's ears...
"Dear user, today is January 21, 2013, which is also your 24th birthday. The system has prepared three birthday gifts for you to choose from! Happy birthday, dear user!"
"Oh? It's my birthday. Hehe." Gao Jianfei slapped his forehead. "Ugh, with the whole world in a panic, I completely forgot my birthday! Embarrassing... I'm 24 now, another year older!"
"Dear user, please enter the Ghost Nest and choose your birthday gift!" the intelligent program's voice prompted.
“K.” It was the early hours of the morning. Gao Jianfei was in the capital city. In Liu Feng’s courtyard house, he was sleeping soundly with Chen Xian in his arms. Upon hearing the words of the intelligent program, Gao Jianfei immediately entered the ghost den in a flash.
In the den of ghosts.
"Dear user, welcome to your ghost den! Happy 24th birthday again! I am truly happy for your birthday!" The AI program's voice was also filled with a cheerful tone.
Gao Jianfei didn't rush to ask what kinds of birthday gifts the system had prepared for him to choose from.
He sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, lit a cigarette, and started smoking, his thoughts drifting.
"It's been two years... I've had the Super Ghost Device, this alien software, for a full two years now..."
Time flies!
"Two years ago, I was a penniless, clueless young man from a poor family, with no stable job, no girlfriend, no social security or medical insurance..."
"Two years later, I stood at the pinnacle of the world, with several beautiful women... and countless riches..."
...
So many thoughts! So many feelings!
After sighing for a while, Gao Jianfei checked the progress of the Super Ghost Instrument's modification, which was only 58% complete; meanwhile, the progress of piecing together Fu Hongxue's soul, a level 5 martial arts ghost, was only halfway done.
"Dear user, would you like to hear what three birthday gifts the system has prepared for you?" The intelligent program was also happy for Gao Jianfei. "Heh, dear user, this time, the gifts the system has prepared for you are much more valuable than those for your birthday last year!"
"Alright, go ahead and tell me," Gao Jianfei said with a smile.
…… …… ……
Beast King Star.
At this moment, on Beast King Star, heads were thronging. Countless Beast King Star people guarded the three spatial passages.
Meanwhile, several elders from Beast King Star excitedly announced, "Excellent! People of Beast King Star! The poison gas we released onto Earth has been successfully delivered to Tokyo, Rio de Janeiro, and London! I believe Earth is now in a state of near destruction! Humanity cannot cope with this disaster! Soon, the space channel will become increasingly stable, and we will be able to transport our warriors to Earth! Please, people, do not worry! Right now, we do not need to risk transporting warriors to Earth. In another ten days, at most twenty days, our space channel will be stable enough to safely transport warriors to Earth! Hahahaha! Our plan to invade Earth is about to embark on a crucial step!"
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
…… …… ……
Gao Jianfei accepted his birthday gift without hesitation.
Speaking of which, this Super Ghost Instrument system, the birthday gift it bestowed, is definitely not something that can be measured or purchased with money on Earth.
Therefore, he listened attentively.
The intelligent program spoke in a gentle voice: "Dear user, listen carefully. There are three birthday gifts in total, and you can choose one of them."
"The first biological gift... Well, esteemed user, since you have performed quite well after obtaining the Super Ghost Instrument and have already upgraded to a Level 5 Exorcist, the system has given you a very good opportunity... You can leave Earth directly and be teleported to a colony planet on Ocean Star, owned by the inventor of the Super Ghost Instrument software, Master Excellence... Oasis Planet!"
"Huh?" Gao Jianfei almost cried out!
What kind of birthday present is this? Making me leave Earth and go to another planet?
The intelligent program hurriedly explained, "Dear user, please do not panic! The humans on Oasis Planet are almost identical in appearance to Earthlings, and the technology on Oasis Planet is far more advanced than Earth's. As a reward for entering Oasis Planet, you will automatically become a noble! A true noble!"
"No thanks!" Gao Jianfei refused outright. "I've never thought of leaving Earth in my entire life! Not now, and never in the future! Noble? Forget it! This birthday gift is beyond my means! Let's find something else!" With that, Gao Jianfei muttered to himself, "I was born an Earthling, and I'll die an Earthling!"
The AI program paused for a moment, then gave a wry smile. "Uh… dear user, if you disliked the first birthday present so much, then I imagine you won't like the second one either…"
"I'm speechless..." Gao Jianfei gave a wry smile. "So what's the second birthday present? It's not going to be another trip to some alien planet, is it? I'm not going. Even if it's a million times more advanced than Earth, I still won't go!"
"Uh... Dear user, in addition to deploying the only Super Ghost Instrument software to Earth, Master Excellence has also deployed some Super Ghost Instruments to some planets in the universe with similar levels of civilization to Earth. This second birthday gift is to grant you a competition qualification!"
"What competition qualifications?" Gao Jianfei frowned.
"Here's the thing, esteemed user, Master Excellence is preparing to host a competition among ghosts on Ocean Planet. As a birthday gift, you can receive a ticket to the competition and engage in skill battles with ghosts from other planets, and even those native to Ocean Planet! If you achieve a good ranking, you will receive a personal audience with Master Excellence, and may even gain the right to reside on Ocean Planet permanently!"
"I...it's my birthday! Are you deliberately trying to annoy me?" Gao Jianfei muttered. "Trash gift! I don't care about any long-term residency rights. I already said I'm not leaving Earth! What a load of rubbish!"
"Oh! My dear user, please don't be angry! Don't be angry! If I had a body, I would use my body to soothe your anger... Calm down! Now, please ignore the first two birthday gifts! Let's look at the third birthday gift... "You will definitely be very interested in the third birthday gift! I swear!"
"And what is that?" Gao Jianfei was no longer optimistic about the birthday gift that the intelligent program had been touting. "If it's related to outer space, then I advise you not to say anything. I'd rather not have this year's birthday gift."
"Hehe, esteemed user, don't be impatient, please let me finish..." the intelligent program hurriedly said, "You will absolutely be satisfied with this third birthday gift! You will receive a special space! This special space can hold living people! This special space is just like the special space you use to house animals; you can put anyone you want in reality into this special space! Let them live in the haunted house!"
"OMG!"
Gao Jianfei jumped up from the sofa!
Bringing living people into the den of ghosts is Gao Jianfei's dream!
"Great! Damn it, what am I thinking? I want this as my birthday present!" Gao Jianfei was trembling with excitement!
"Uh... Dear user, please don't get excited. Please let me finish," the AI program said with a smile. "This special space, which can hold living people, can only hold 10 people."
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Gao Jianfei's high spirits dipped slightly. He had initially thought the special space could hold an unlimited number of people—how awesome that would be! But the intelligent program told him it could only hold 10 people!
"Ten people? That's too few!" Gao Jianfei was a little dissatisfied. Just take his friends and relatives, as well as the women, for example. The number of them added up was more than ten, right?
"Um... Dear user, according to the design philosophy of Master Excellence, the Super Ghost Device is personal software and is not originally intended to accommodate other people. However, to allow each user to bring their partner and important family members with them, Master Excellence has designed this special space that can accommodate 10 people. This is already considered a large space. Not only your Super Ghost Device, but any Super Ghost Device can only accommodate a maximum of 10 people," the intelligent program stated. "So, dear user, would you choose this birthday gift, or would you forgo it?"
Chapter 568 Arrival
Chapter 568 Arrival
Should I forgo giving a birthday gift this year?
That's impossible!
Gao Jianfei hurriedly said, "Uh... never mind, I'll choose the third birthday present! I want a special space that can hold living people in a ghost den! Ten spots it is, better than nothing."
"Okay!" the AI program smiled. "So, dear user, are you sure you've chosen the third birthday gift?"
"Yes," Gao Jianfei confirmed again.
"Okay!" the AI program immediately replied. "Dear user, please close your eyes. I will now distribute this birthday gift to you directly."
Gao Jianfei was a little excited and quickly closed his eyes.
