190: Chapter 191, the second work order cannot only have Jiang Cheng's signature.

"This is... Hai City temporary... maintenance point."

"We don't understand your methods."

"But we have a screwdriver here too."

That receipt squeezed out from a patch of noise, intermittent, carrying the sound of sea breeze and electrical crackling.

In the Main Control Room, everyone looked up.

Above Jiangcheng, the shadow of the Mother of All Things' spine had already pressed down to the edge of the city.

That was no ordinary bone.

It was like a mountain lying on its side, with golden divine blood flowing through its bone joints, and every gap was casting down job naming pages.

It hadn't even truly crashed down yet, but the ground in Jiangcheng had already begun to sink.

The inclined slide rail of the No. 1 Bypass Station let out a piercing screech.

The chairs in the No. 2 Rest Station were sliding backward row by row.

The incubator tracks at First Hospital were alarming again.

The God Head was not persuading now.

It was eradicating "fault sources."

And beside work order no. 001, the newly generated blank page was flashing with a grayish-white light.

[work order no. 002 pending establishment]

[Target: World-class recovery backbone]

[Requirement: Signature from more than one city]

Lin Jin stared at that line of text.

"Signature from more than one city."

"Does it want us to find the authorities?"

Cheng Du saw through it at a glance, his face turning ashen.

"The parent terminal will recognize central authorization."

"Once you go through official intercity stamping, it can merge all signatures into 'illegal proliferation led by Jiangcheng' and then seal everything off at once."

He Zhibai's ledger also flipped pages immediately.

[If a unified master work order is established, risk: formation of a new center]

[New center may be taken over by the God Head]

[Local responsibilities may be consolidated for liquidation]

Chen Ye felt a headache hearing this.

"So are we signing or not?"

Lin Jin grabbed the blank work order no. 002, but didn't write a title.

"Sign."

"But don't use a single seal."

He connected to that intermittent receipt from Hai City.

"Hai City, can you hear me?"

Amidst the sea breeze noise, a young woman answered, panting:

"I can hear a little!"

"Golden umbilical cords are emerging from underneath our Awakening Tower!"

"A screwdriver jammed a calibration gear, but it can't hold!"

Lin Jin asked:

"Who is on the scene there?"

"Me, Intern Liang Yu from Hai City's Third Awakening Point."

"There are also two security guards, a middle-aged man selling pancakes, and three students who just came to awaken."

"Is there an official person in charge?"

Intern Liang Yu was silent for half a second.

"The director was dragged into the tower by the umbilical cord."

"Then don't wait for the director."

Lin Jin said.

"You build the Hai City No. 1 Temporary Maintenance Point yourselves."

Intern Liang Yu was stunned for a moment.

"I don't know how to write a work order!"

Lin Jin looked at the spine pressing down from the sky, speaking extremely fast.

"Don't use our format."

"Write down what you see."

"Write where the umbilical cords are emerging from."

"Write what you used to jam it."

"Write who is on the scene."

"Write that this is not agreeing to Jiangcheng's command."

"This is Hai City reporting for repairs itself."

There was a moment of silence from Intern Liang Yu's side.

Then came the sound of paper tearing.

"I don't have work order paper!"

"A pancake bag will do."

A few seconds later, Intern Liang Yu's voice carried a hint of a breakdown and an absurd, tearful tone:

"I'm writing on the pancake bag."

Chen Ye couldn't hold it in:

"Quite good, even more down-to-earth than our work badges."

Lin Jin didn't laugh.

He tore the first page of work order no. 002 horizontally, dividing it into several strips.

"Luo Wensheng, Record in parallel."

Luo Wensheng understood immediately and picked up his pen to write:

[work order no. 002 is not a single master work order.]

[All regions retain local originals.]

[Jiangcheng only provides fault numbers, forwarding channels, and verified maintenance experience.]

[No region becomes Jiangcheng's subordinate by responding to Jiangcheng.]

Ye Guizhou stamped it:

[Receipt received]

[Does not constitute affiliation]

He Zhibai added:

[Local costs are recorded locally, mutual aid costs are public, and they must not be consolidated into a single city's debt.]

Just as the first parallel Record was finished, a loud noise suddenly came from Hai City.

Intern Liang Yu screamed:

"The umbilical cord is tightening!"

"It's going to roll up the Awakening Tower!"

Lin Jin immediately looked at the Hai City cached feed in the Mainframe.

The image was very blurry.

But one could see a golden umbilical cord drilling out from the ground of the Awakening Tower, wrapping around the tower base like a snake.

Nearby, a pancake-selling uncle in a raincoat was propping up a gear with an iron shovel, and two security guards were dismantling road guardrails and stuffing them horizontally between the umbilical cord and the tower base.

Lin Jin shouted:

"Don't hold it head-on!"

"Let it wrap around!"

Intern Liang Yu panted:

"How to wrap around?"

"Hai City is by the sea, are there any drainage ditches?"

"Yes!"

"Stuff the guardrails in at an angle, guide it toward the drainage ditch!"

"Don't let the umbilical cord pull the tower, let it pull the empty ditch first!"

Intern Liang Yu immediately followed suit.

In the feed, the guardrails were bent, and the drainage ditch covers were flying off one by one.

The golden umbilical cord was indeed diverted by the slanted guardrail and tightly squeezed into the empty ditch.

The pancake-selling uncle yelled over there:

"My iron shovel can't hold!"

"Retreat!"

Intern Liang Yu shouted.

Before the iron shovel broke, several students pushed the second guardrail up.

The first guardrail was dragged away, and the second one took its place.

Hai City had no handover rings.

But they learned not to let one thing hold on until it broke.

The Hai City pancake bag work order smashed into the blank page of work order no. 002 through the local cache.

[Hai City No. 1 Temporary Maintenance Point]

[Problem: Awakening Tower umbilical cord entanglement]

[Treatment: Diverted at an angle into the drainage ditch, guardrails rotated to bear the pressure]

[On-site signatures: Intern Liang Yu, Uncle Wang, two security guards, three students]

[Note: We are not under Jiangcheng's jurisdiction, but this trick works]

The first sea-blue dirty seal lit up on work order no. 002.

The speed of the spine pressing down from the sky slowed for a moment.

Immediately after, the receipt from the Beiyuan mining area rushed in.

"This is Beiyuan No. 7 Mine!"

"That line of yours about rotating iron plates works!"

"But it's not iron plates here, it's a mine shaft!"

The feed switched over.

In the underground mine of Beiyuan, golden ribs arched out from the ore veins, trying to drag the entire miner job chain into the divine body's bone patterns.

An old miner grabbed the communicator and shouted:

"It wants us to enter the bone permanently by shift team!"

"Whoever has worked in the same mine tunnel gets strung together by it!"

Lin Jin asked:

"Do you have old railcar turntables in your tunnels?"

"Yes, at the three-way junction!"

"Guide the shift team line to the turntable."

"Don't let one tunnel bear everyone."

"Each shift team should report the actual people who went down the mine today, don't report the historical roster!"

The old miner was stunned.

"There are dead people on the historical roster."

"Then you definitely can't let it use that."

Qin Shanhe immediately cut in.

"Beiyuan, listen to a word from Jiangcheng."

"History can be recorded."

"But you cannot drag dead people's names back to bear the pressure for the living."

There was a half-second of silence from the mining area.

Then came a roar from the old miner:

"No. 7 Mine, roll call for the living!"

"Whoever went down the mine today, shout it out yourself!"

Rough shouts rang out in the mine tunnel.

"Zhang Tiezhu, present!"

"Li Changhe, present!"

"Wang Mancang didn't go down today, he's at The Hospital!"

"Old Zhao has been dead for eight years, don't you dare drag him in!"

Deep in the mine, the bone pattern of that golden rib flickered in confusion.

The mine car turntable rumbled as it turned, and the historical shift team chain was dismantled into three parts: current shift, old accident Records, and memorial roster.

The rib wanted to string up the entire mining area, but it only strung up an empty mine car.

The old miner pushed the mine car straight down an abandoned well.

"Let it string this up!"

The Beiyuan receipt smashed into work order no. 002.

[Beiyuan No. 7 Mine Temporary Maintenance Point]

[Problem: Divine bone stringing up historical shift teams]

[Treatment: Roll call for current shift, old accidents moved to memorial Records, mine car turntable diversion]

[Note: The dead don't go down the mine, the living don't bear the bone for the whole mine]

The second iron-black dirty seal lit up.

The spine above Jiangcheng shifted by half an inch.

Half an inch wasn't enough.

But it was enough to keep the No. 1 Bypass Station from being crushed directly.

The receipt from Nanling The Hospital arrived almost simultaneously.

Over there, crying, bells, and doctors' orders were mixed into a mess.

"Nanling First Hospital!"

"We wrote 'pending naming' as you said!"

"But the Mother's recovery array now wants to merge all hospital beds into one delivery room!"

Fang Ning immediately took over.

"I am Fang Ning from Jiangcheng First Hospital."

"Don't let the beds arrange themselves."

"Re-partition according to medical needs first!"

"Newborns, mothers, critical care, general accompaniment, Record them all separately!"

The Nanling obstetrics director roared:

"The divine array doesn't recognize it, it says Mother's recovery takes unified priority!"

Fang Ning said coldly:

"Then have each bed report its current medical status."

"A delivery room is not a warehouse."

"Children are not a batch of goods."

"Mothers are not passageways."

Over in Nanling, they immediately started reporting bed numbers.

"Bed 1, risk of postpartum hemorrhage!"

"Bed 2, premature infant in incubator!"

"Bed 3, family accompanying, not a patient!"

"Bed 4, intensive care, cannot move!"

The wheels of every bed were fixed in different directions by Nurses using bandages, bed rails, and IV stands.

The golden recovery array wanted to arrange them into a circle, but because each bed's current medical status was different, it couldn't rotate them uniformly.

The obstetrics director wrote the receipt on a piece of dismantled medicine box cardboard.

[Nanling First Hospital Temporary Maintenance Point]

[Problem: Hospital beds unified and merged into the Mother's recovery array]

[Treatment: Partitioned by current medical status, beds must not be merged due to the "Mother" concept]

[Note: Mothers are not delivery room parts, children are not mass-produced output]

The third white, blood-stained seal lit up.

work order no. 002 was finally no longer just a piece of paper from Jiangcheng.

It was like a piece of rag pulled in different directions by four cities.

Not neat.

Not pretty.

But the God Head could no longer judge it as "unilateral pollution by Jiangcheng."

The spine in the sky crashed down with a boom.

But it didn't hit the Jiangcheng Mainframe squarely.

It was simultaneously pulled off course by Hai City's drainage ditch diversion, Beiyuan's mine car turntable, Nanling's bed partitioning, and Jiangcheng's bypass live buckles.

The massive golden bone shadow brushed past the east side of Jiangcheng.

A whole area of abandoned factories was crushed to flat ground.

But the No. 1 Bypass Station was saved.

The rest station was saved.

First Hospital was saved.

Chen Ye was shaken and hit the wall; the first thing he said when he climbed up was:

"Having city signatures really is tough!"

Cheng Du panted, staring at the pressure gauge.

"It's not toughness."

"It's that it can't press on one point simultaneously."

Lin Jin looked toward work order no. 002.

A new status was automatically generated on it.

[work order no. 002 parallel work order established]

[Current signing cities: Jiangcheng, Hai City, Beiyuan, Nanling]

[Target: World-class recovery backbone]

[Effect: Partial blocking of divine body unified access]

[Gap: Insufficient global nodes]

Still not enough.

The world is big.

Four cities could only make the divine body shift a little.

It couldn't stop the Mother of All Things from truly sitting up.

Sure enough, at the end of the sky, more ribs began to move.

The divine body no longer pressed all its power toward Jiangcheng.

It began to press simultaneously toward those cities that had no receipts, no local maintenance points, and were still waiting for official orders.

On the screen, one gray city node after another was swallowed by golden light.

[Local area unresponsive]

[Entering Mother's recovery]

[Job interfaces unified]

Lin Jin watched those cities, his fists clenching bit by bit.

They couldn't save every place.

At least not now.

Just then, a strange receipt suddenly popped up below work order no. 002.

The signal was very weak.

The source was a small town that had never appeared on their list.

[This is the Qinghe County vocational training station]

[We have no Awakening Tower, no big hospital, and no mines]

[But we have thirty-seven students who haven't finished class yet]

[The teacher says don't hand it in yet]

[May I ask: Can chalk sign?]

Lin Jin looked at this line of text and said in a low voice:

"Yes."

Luo Wensheng picked up his pen and wrote that line into work order no. 002.

The next second, thirty-seven crooked chalk signatures from Qinghe County fell onto the edge of the work order like white ash.

The golden light of the divine body's backbone showed its first real crack.

But after the crack, the chest cavity of the Mother of All Things slowly opened.

There was no heart inside.

Because the gods heart was still beating behind the temporary valve in Jiangcheng.

Inside the chest cavity, a huge golden lung was suspended.

Cheng Du's face changed suddenly.

"Hold your breath!"

"It's going to blow!"

It was already too late.

The divine lung opened and exhaled the first breath toward the whole world.

That breath was not poisonous.

It carried the most familiar scent from the day everyone awakened.

Like new power, new future, new identity.

[Divine breath spreading]

[Effect: All regions that have not established a local work order node will be automatically sucked into unified job naming]

The chalk signatures from Qinghe County hadn't dried yet.

The teacher's terrified voice came from over there:

"The students are starting to glow!"

In the sky, the God Head announced coldly:

"You know how to write on dirty paper."

"Then I will let them inhale clean jobs."
