Chapter 301: "Propaganda" from the Fighting Arena (Star Landing Chapter)
"Ah~~~ My voice is hoarse. It is worthy of the well-known 'Fierce Ghost Yin and Yang Road', which scared me into a cold sweat. But it's exciting. Did Yan'er like the movie she just played? Bai Su stretched his waist, hugged his neck, and said with a retrospective face.
"Hmm." Yan'er's face still had a flush of excitement after shouting, and she nodded when she heard the words, her emotions were high.
At this time, Zheng Ming, Bai Su and Yan'er were walking out of the gate of the entertainment city along the surging crowd.
They had just finished playing the "Fierce Ghost Yin and Yang Road" in Bai Su's mouth. This is a product similar to the combination of a choice-based interactive narrative game and a 5D movie. Under the guidance of the equipment, the audience will be immersed in a scene that seems to be a real fantasy, and experience the world of the movie from a first-person perspective. And depending on the choice, there will be subtle differences. Experience the different details of the movie. Of course, the general direction and ending are predestined.
As they spoke, the three of them walked out of the door and into the bustling street. The red neon lights flickered, and all kinds of holographic projections and advertisements in mid-air sprinkled all kinds of colorful and gorgeous lights.
Under the reflection of these lights, Bai Su and Yan'er, dressed up, like a combination of fairies and fairies, plus the crimson flush on their faces that have not completely faded, look extraordinarily bright.
Unlike the two who were in high spirits, Zheng Ming, who was silently following them, was pale with a touch of blue, as if the whole world owed him money, and his face was stinky.
"Ming'er, are you alright? The face is very bad. You won't ......" As he spoke, Bai Su came to Zheng Ming's side, picked up his arm, poked his cheek with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Are you scared?" It's so cute. β
Zheng Ming, who had a very bad face, raised his head and avoided Bai Su's fingers, and retorted angrily: "Huh? Will I be scared? Why do we spend money to experience a movie game where we are hunted by humanoids? I can't touch them, and it's useless to resist, so I can only jump up and down unilaterally. I really admire your brain circuits, why spend money to experience this feeling of powerlessness. You guys even find it funny? β
"Oh roar, look. The speed of speech has become rapid, right? Is it to hide the fact that there are so many long explanations in order to hide the fear of facts? It's so cute. β
Seeing Bai Mo hugging his shoulders and smiling evilly, Zheng Ming's white and blue face faintly turned black, and a touch of blush climbed from the back of his neck to his ears.
"Hee-hee."
It seemed that Zheng Ming's reaction was funny, and even Yan'er let out a silver bell-like laugh.
"Huh? As for the destructive power of the ghost in the movie, I encountered it in reality, and I could take out a reinforcement group with one hand. Will I be scared? I'm distressed about the wealth point. Zheng Mingyou quibbled unconvinced.
"Not admit it yet. Today is the first time I've asked Yeona to play a movie game, so I'll bring yours with me. It's not spending your wealth points, what are you distressed about? β
"Then I really thank you. Don't call me this 'good thing' next time you bother, I'm sorry to watch from the sidelines. β
"You, you, you. Why have you become more and more obsessed with money lately? β
There was talk and laughter, and suddenly Bai Su's footsteps paused. And Zheng Ming and Yan'er, who noticed that Bai Su had fallen behind, also stopped and looked at her.
I saw that the heartless and heartless evil smile on her face disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a solemn attitude that she had never behaved solemnly before Zheng Ming and the others.
Following her gaze, I saw two muscular men in black suits, trench coats, and sunglasses striding towards the corner of the street.
"When you're the Man in Black?" Zheng Ming looked at the two strong men who were obviously different from the pedestrians around him, and couldn't help but say a word in his heart.
Originally, Zheng Ming only thought that Bai Su was attracted by the strange appearance of the two, and he didn't care too much. However, as the two strong men got closer and closer, he finally realized that the two people on the other side were coming for him and others.
"Sister Su'er, do you know them?" It is naturally impossible for him Zheng Ming to have an intersection with the strong man in black, and Bai Ming judged that if the attitude of the two changed, he asked this question.
"Well, they're coming for me." Bai Su said in a slightly low voice.
"Do you need me to stop it?"
Hearing Zheng Ming's pretended to be a relaxed question, Bai Su smiled at him, and then said in an indecent tone: "Is Ming'er worried about her sister?" I'm so impressed. But don't worry, they're not bothering me. β
As they spoke, two strong men in black had already approached them.
I saw that they were like robots, and after bowing neatly and angular for a while, they said respectfully to Bai Su: "Miss Bai, Mr. Bai beckons you back." β
To Zheng Ming's surprise, Bai Su responded to nature and behaved dignified and solemn, as if she had changed from a wild girl before to a noble lady with good manners in an instant.
I saw that she also bowed slightly and returned the salute, and asked in a slow and soft voice, "What's the matter?" β
"It's still a clichΓ© about your life's events. The details will be discussed in detail on the shuttle later. Come with us now. β
"Sister Su'er, is there anything wrong?" Looking at this posture, the first thing that came to Zheng Ming's mind was the bloody plot of arranged marriages and forced marriages in the old society, so he turned his head to look at Bai Su.
What he didn't expect was that Bai Su's attitude was very indifferent and calm, and after she made a calm gesture to the two strong men in black, she looked at Zheng Ming with a smile.
"Ming'er, I have some things to do today, so I'll leave first. I'll play with you and Yan'er another day. β
"Sister Su'er, are you really okay? Is there something inconvenient to reveal? If you need help, just say it. β
The black-clothed man who looked at Zheng Ming silently on the side, saw Zheng Ming's sharp gaze suddenly projected, and his expression was awe-inspiring. Involuntarily took a few steps back, and then reached into his arms.
Seeing the reaction of the two, Zheng Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, and his face was cold. There seemed to be countless tiny flying swords circling around his eyes, flickering with a cold glow, as if they would break out in the next moment.
Just when Zheng Ming was thinking about whether to strike first, a soft touch suddenly came from his shoulder. Immediately afterwards, he felt Bai Su's tender little hand, touching the side of his shoulder and neck, and pressing it quite hard.
"Ming, don't make a fuss. They're my colleagues. β
Hearing Bai Su's serious tone behind him, Zheng Ming turned his head blankly, just in time to meet her bright starry eyes.
After watching quietly for a moment, seeing that Bai Su didn't seem to be cheating, Zheng Ming, who realized that he was thinking too much, responded calmly, took a few steps back, and let her out.
"Oh."
Bai Su didn't say much, just patted him lightly on the shoulder as he passed by, and followed the footsteps of the strong man in black to leave.
"Ming, is Sister Bai Su okay?" Yan'er walked to Zheng Ming's side and grabbed the placket of his clothes, with a hint of worry in her tone.
Seeing that the man in black walked to the shuttle-shaped aircraft suspended on the ground in the distance with Bai Su, and lowered his sunglasses to look at himself from afar before getting into the car, Zheng Ming kept his face expressionless, and silently watched the shuttle carry them and leave silently.
"Naruto?" Seeing that Zheng Ming didn't reply, Yan'er called softly again.
"Oh. Since she herself said that she was fine, she should really be fine. What more do you want to play? I'll play with you. β
Hearing Zheng Ming's words, Yan'er shook her little brain lightly, and said with a serious face: "Ming, you can take a walk with me and take a look at the street scene." β
Zheng Ming, who was worried about the lack of remaining wealth points, was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then showed a doting smile.
"Well, Yan'er is really sensible. But it doesn't matter, you can just say what you want to play or eat if you want to, you don't need to be polite to me. We're family. β
Yan'er nodded again, her eyes wandered for a moment, and then she stretched out her little hand and said with a serious face: "Then you hold me." β
Although Yan'er's gaze only wandered for a moment, Zheng Ming was still keenly aware of the whereabouts. It was a boy who was being held by his parents from side to side, laughing loudly. He looks a little younger than Yan'er, about ninety years old.
Looking at Yan'er's little face, which was trying her best to hide her anxiety and expectation, Zheng Ming squatted down and rubbed the air bangs on her forehead, and straightened the two wavy strands of curly hair on her sideburns.
"That's what a requirement? In the future, if you want me to take it, you can just stretch out your hand, and this little thing doesn't have to be so solemn. With that, he stood up and grabbed Yan'er's hand firmly.
Just as the two were standing on the street corner holding hands, a holographic projection floating in the sky suddenly turned into a fight arena advertisement.
After the arena's iconic opening music and short introduction, a promotional image suddenly appeared inside.
"Next up, the player is known as the Grim Reaper. He was originally at the top of the power level. Because every opponent has no life and the first statement is revealed. Later, in the battle with the fierce peak powerhouse Fire Fox, he smashed the protective shield of the fighting arena and caused a huge riot.
Now that he has just been evaluated by the evaluation agency, he has been confirmed as a mad rank, and has made an exception to become a martial artist in the lower rank of the mad rank.
Suffice it to say, he may not be the youngest, he may not be the most handsome, he may not be the quickest to rise to the mad ranks, but he is the most unexpected. He's the player we're introducing to you today, the Mask of Death!
What follows is the battle footage he once left behind. It's really a judgment of life and death, so stay tuned......"
With the impassioned introduction, the projection that occupied a radius of nearly 100 meters in the sky quickly changed, and in the blink of an eye, it became the battle that Zheng Ming had experienced before.
From the beginning of Zheng Ming's first battle, the killings one after another, under the projection of the true and the false, were presented again.
With the support of superb technology, the fragility of life, the cruelty of battle, and the bloody scenes with strange beauty are all restored in front of pedestrians.
"Gott~"
"What kind of image is this? Barbarous! Bloody! It's just a beast. Since this is what happened in Starlin? Is there still civilization to speak of? β
"Damn, what kind of garbage is there, the kid is still there. What should I do if I teach him badly? β
"No wonder it's called the Grim Reaper, there are only staggered names, no staggered nicknames. When you look at his eyes, he is cold and not human, and when you look at his opponent's eyes, it seems like looking at ants. It's just spreading bad influence. β
β¦β¦
In an instant, the streets were filled with invective and denunciation.
Zheng Ming, who looked up at the holographic projection, felt the sudden increase in the force in his palm, and then realized the existence of Yan'er.
He hurriedly looked down, only to see Yan'er with her head down, unable to see her specific expression due to the long hair and shadows hanging down. However, from the opponent's gently trembling shoulders and the left hand tightly clenched into a fist, it can be seen that the other party is not calm at this time.
I think that the little girl may have remembered that rainy night because of the scene in front of her, and the blood on her hands at that time.
"Scared by the bloody scenes, right? Don't think about it, I'm here. While comforting softly, Zheng Ming hugged Yan'er for the first time.
felt Yan'er bury her little face on her shoulder, and gradually calmed down. Zheng Ming looked at the sky and the more and more pedestrians gathered around him with a pale face.
Where is this propaganda, showing this kind of bloody fighting in the middle of this kind of downtown area, the main messenger can be punished.
In the peaceful and orderly Star Landing City, when have these law-abiding residents seen the scene of severed limbs flying sideways and blood flowing.
Know that this is reality, unlike games where a slight "harmony" is told to be false before it enters.
From the first person who is not used to seeing the bloody scene to speak out, things are destined to develop in the direction of unity and resistance to condemnation.
Everyone wants to look like they're perfect and good. Who would want their inner impulse for blood and violence to be exposed?
As a result, the "kind" and "civilized" people became more and more excited, as if they had met an enemy, and they were furious and denounced the behavior of the fighting arena and the fighters in the picture.
In the end, under the coercion of these people, even those who were only a little uncomfortable at first, or worried about their children, did not get angry, and angrily pointed the finger at the survivor called "Death" in the picture.
They didn't know the specific rules of the fighting arena, they didn't know much about the existence of the life and death contract, and even the laws of Starlanding City, they didn't know anything about it.
But they feel that killing people pays for their lives, and that killing people is wrong, immoral, unreasonable, and violating the law of the stars.
They feel that their actions are righteous and that they are on the side of morality.
After looking at the colorful streets with a sneering expression on his face, Zheng Ming withdrew his gaze after almost a moment of chaos and colorful streets.
He thought of a book he had read a long, long time ago.
Due to the long period of time, the name of the author and the specific content are not remembered.
It is only known that the author is a French social psychologist and sociologist. This book is one of the most famous social psychology books he has written.
One of them is a very relevant idea.
First, individuals in a group will exhibit a pronounced herd mentality.
Second, the moral and social mechanisms that bind the individual will lose their effectiveness in fanatical groups.
In short, when a group gathers in the same situation, their IQ decreases, and they lose their independent thinking, or they cannot be independent, and can only be coerced and assimilated by the masses. And the consequences of this naturally cannot produce reason and wisdom.
"What's the name of that book? Oh yes. It's called a rabble. What a fitting name. β
After Zheng Ming sighed softly, he hugged Yan'er and left.
From a distance, Zheng Ming, who broke through against the constantly converging flow of people, was like a stubborn boat breaking through the waves in the angry waves.
