Zongman: The post-2D era

Page 573

The mysterious man Masakaki who claims to be a bank employee in Midas Bank asks Feng Feng:

“If I mortgage your future and lend you money, how will you use the money with your own talents?”

They entered the “Financial Street”, a different dimension from the real world, where various battles involving money were unfolding.

“Your limit is 100 million, and your battle partner is the robot arm on your shoulder. Good luck!”

The moment Feng Feng stepped into the Financial Street, the surrounding scene changed abruptly. Neon lights flashed, tall buildings stood in rows, and the air was filled with the smell of money and the unknown.

On the streets, people are dressed in fancy clothes but look anxious, holding all kinds of financial instruments in their hands, as if they are engaged in an invisible wrestling match.

Feng Feng secretly marveled at the strangeness of Matou’s mission. At the same time, the mechanical arm on his shoulder made a slight buzzing sound, as it analyzed the surrounding environment and prepared to deal with possible challenges.

Feng Feng looked around with sharp eyes and whispered to the mechanical arm: “Be careful, every transaction here may have hidden secrets.”

The robotic arm rotates flexibly, and the optical lens at the end locks onto several suspicious figures, ready to respond to emergencies at any time.

Feng Feng quickly adapted to the rules of the Financial Street. He found that the battles here were not only a contest of intelligence and strategy, but also a direct reflection of the desire for money.

In a brightly lit arena, he faced a bounty challenge.

The opponent was a middle-aged man in a suit holding a data tablet, with a calculating gleam in his eyes.

With an order, the battle began. Feng Feng flashed and his robotic arm accurately intercepted the opponent’s financial virus attack that was about to be launched.

The amount of virtual currency on the big screen in the arena fluctuated, and the audience’s cheers continued.

Feng Feng curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer, and he controlled the robotic arm to release a high-frequency trading wave, which instantly disrupted the opponent’s financial system. The opponent’s assets on the screen suddenly dropped to zero, and the audience burst into exclamations.

Feng Fengzheng and the robotic arm cooperated in perfect harmony, winning battle after battle. Their figures were like two flashes of lightning in the arena of the Financial Street, cutting through the defenses of one challenger after another.

Suddenly, the lights in the entire arena dimmed, and all eyes were focused on the entrance.

A big player wearing a black windbreaker and with a stern face walked in slowly. On his finger was a ring inlaid with a dazzling gem, which was shining with a captivating light in the dimness.

With a playful smile on his face, he looked directly at Feng Feng, as if a hunter had locked onto his prey: “I heard that you have stirred up quite a stir here. Come on, let me see if you are qualified to be my opponent.”

After saying this, he waved his hand lightly, and invisible waves seemed to spread out in the air. A real battle was about to break out.

Feng Feng dodged flexibly, and the robotic arm counterattacked at lightning speed, but each attack was easily resolved by the big player, as if his every move had been predicted in advance.

The big player raised his lips slightly and flicked his fingers. A golden stream of data snaked out like a snake and instantly wrapped around Feng Feng’s mechanical arm, making it unable to move.

Feng Feng’s eyes flashed and he tried to break free, but found that his strength was like an ant trying to shake a tree in front of this data stream.

The audience around stared with bated breath, and the air was filled with tension.

Feng Feng knew in his heart that the financial gap was clearly revealed at this moment. The other party’s financial resources were like an indestructible shield, and his 100 million credit line seemed so insignificant on the battlefield of this financial street.

The big player raised his confident smile, slowly stretched out his hand wearing a dazzling ring, and lightly stroked the cold metal of Fengfeng’s mechanical arm with his fingertips, making a soft “ding” sound.

“Feng Feng, I give you a choice,” his deep and magnetic voice echoed in the Financial Street Arena.

“Admit defeat and hand over your robotic arm to me. In exchange, I will give you 1 billion, enough for you to enjoy endless wealth and glory in the real world.”

His words seemed to have magical power, causing the air around them to freeze.

Feng Feng raised his eyes and met the big player’s deep eyes. Although his mechanical arm was restrained, his eyes were as firm as a rock.

There seemed to be some kind of silent communication between Feng Feng and the robotic arm, a tacit understanding and determination that went beyond words.

The optical lens on the robotic arm flashed an unyielding light, as if responding to Feng Feng’s inner tenacity.

Feng Feng took a deep breath, all the muscles in his body tensed, and an unprecedented power surged in his body.

He roared, as if he wanted to pour out all his resentment and anger. That power was no longer measurable by money, but was the most direct manifestation of his vitality.

Feng Feng’s muscles swelled like ignited flames, and it seemed that what was flowing in his veins was no longer blood, but boiling fighting spirit.

He struggled violently, and the golden data stream shattered bit by bit under his powerful force, and the mechanical arm regained its freedom.

At that moment, the entire arena seemed to tremble, and Feng Feng was like an awakened beast, ready for the final decisive battle.

The showdown between Feng Feng and the big players has reached a fever pitch. With his earth-shaking roar, the entire arena seems to be swept by an invisible storm.

The muscles in Feng Feng’s body seemed to be tempered by flames, and each muscle burst out with astonishing power, tearing the golden data stream that bound him into pieces.

The moment the robotic arm broke free from its restraints, it released a dazzling blue light, like the brightest star in the night sky, accurately hitting the data tablet of the big player. The tablet instantly turned into pieces, and data streams spread everywhere, illuminating the entire arena like a dream.

The exclamations of the audience and the alarms of electronic equipment were intertwined. The balance of the Financial Street was completely broken at this moment. An abnormal storm caused by the collision of money and vitality was quietly brewing.

The financial street was cold and silent at night. Feng Feng and the robotic arm stood side by side on the empty street, the glimmer of the spoils flickering in the night.

Suddenly, several black cars drove around the corner, their doors opened one after another, and a group of uniformed, stern-faced guards quickly surrounded them.

The captain of the guard held a document in his hand and announced grimly: “Feng Feng, you have disrupted the financial order by improper means. You are hereby arrested in accordance with the law.”

Feng Feng’s eyes were determined and there was an unyielding smile on his lips. He slowly raised his mechanical arm, which was glowing blue against the night sky, as if it was a declaration against the whole world.

But the guards remained unmoved and approached quickly. The cold shackles reflected a dazzling light in the sunlight and ruthlessly locked Feng Feng’s strong wrists.

The mechanical arm made a low humming sound, as if it was unwilling to see its master being tied up, but it could only hang down helplessly.
