Volume 1 The Rise of the Apostles 63.The crowd revels
According to the original map, this was originally a church. The point of the fire and explosion was here, and now it is just a pile of ruins that cannot be seen in full form.
"They found a hidden entrance, and the explosion was supposed to be coming from inside. Now the structure inside is very unstable and there is a risk of collapse at any time. Chen Hongming said to Bai Lan.
"Let the team members with the ability of [State of Matter] try it, I want to see what is inside." Bai Lan said.
"Team Leader Bai, there are eight corpses there!"
The voice of a member of the Blue Dragon Group drew Bai Lan's attention.
……
Suzuki zaibatsu is a Japanese zaibatsu that has been active since the 20th century. Its predecessor is the earliest, dating back to around the Kamakura shogunate. From the original Genji, to the Ashikaga clan, to the Tokugawa clan, and finally the Suzuki clan. Despite the change of surnames, the Suzuki clan held great power in the politics, culture, and economy of Japan in various periods.
"The noblest few." - In Japan, for more than 1,000 years, it has referred specifically to the predecessor of the Suzuki clan or to itself.
At present, Japan has merged with South Korea, Korea and other peninsula regions at the beginning of the 21 st century to form the "East Coast Federation". The Suzuki clan, on the other hand, continues to use its bloodline as the backbone of history, with economic, political, and cultural power as its branches, and exerts great influence within the East Coast Federation.
The Suzuki clan went through the Suzuki clan for presidential votes, the Suzuki clan for cabinet formation, and the Suzuki clan for military and political policies. The influence of the Suzuki clan has reached the point where this clan has disappeared - and the entire East Coast Federation will be difficult to function. Although it still maintains a low profile, always secretly controlling everything in the economy, politics, military, and culture, and few clan children of the Suzuki clan sit in the presidential position or enter the cabinet, but its very existence is enough to hold everything.
Luo Wei naturally knew about the Suzuki clan, and although the Suzuki clan was not well-known among the general public, people who were slightly interested in politics, or people with a little more common sense in society, would always know what this original Japanese surname represented. Moreover, because of the relationship between the ancestors of the Luo family and that person, more or less, Luo Wei will always subconsciously pay attention to this chaebol clan.
……
"Yes." Luo Wei nodded.
Vina Gaelan was silent for a moment, then continued, "My mission is about them. ”
Luo Wei suddenly felt a feeling of being caught in a whirlpool hit him. He didn't want to enter the vortex, but for some reason, the more he struggled, the closer he got to the bottom of the vortex. Last time, the memoirs of the Luo family's ancestors were stolen, it seems that it was because the Luo family used to be unclear with this surname. Now, in the dark, a young girl suddenly broke into his bedroom, and it turned out to be related to this surname?
A little more, a little less. Vena teleported out of the way, her body not stuck in the wall, not cut in two by some sharp instrument, but fell into her own home... It was as if there was an invisible hand controlling Rowe's fate, and Rowe had no way to predict and get rid of it.
Vina didn't know what Luo Wei was thinking at the moment, and said, "I come from a secret organization, and the name of the organization is 'Exorcism Tower'. ”
"The Exorcism Tower?" Rowe chewed inwardly at the meaning of the name. "Who is the devil?" Rowe thought.
"The Suzuki chaebol controls another secret organization, the 'God Hunter Society'. The power of the God Hunter Society, although very low-key, is truly spread all over the world. And their target was the other apostles. ”
"Other apostles? Which apostles? Luo Wei was stunned.
Vina's brown eyes stared at Rovi, silent.
"You mean... All the apostles except them? Rowe was in disbelief.
Vena nodded.
"But... Although the number of apostles is small compared to the entire population of the world, there are hundreds of thousands now, right? Luo Wei frowned slightly.
"Quantity is never an issue." Vina said.
"What do they need the apostles to do?" Luo Wei then asked.
It seems to be related to a certain plan of this chaebol, but no one knows what the plan specifically refers to. One thing is for sure, though, that nothing good will happen. The Hunters seem to be 'hunting' the apostles of their target. Even though they do it covertly, the exorcist will be sure that they are the ones who did it! Vina said categorically.
"What did you see with your own eyes?" Luo Wei asked.
"I... Didn't see it with my own eyes. After all, the Hunters have been very restrained so far, and I don't have many opportunities to go on missions. And this time, my task is to find clues related to them. You're from Yanjing, you should know what's going on on Jing'an Street, right? I got the news that everything that happened there seemed to be something to do with them. The disappearance of the Apostles on Jing'an Street is very similar to their style of action. Vina's words made Rowe's heart sink.
The fallen angel of Jing'an Street, the disappearance of the apostle of Jing'an Street...
"The main mission of our Exorcism Tower, since its establishment, has only been one - to destroy the 'God Hunter Society'." Vina's voice was resolute.
That kind of resoluteness, Luo Wei doesn't know where it comes from. After all, Vina herself has not seen the "hunting" of the Hunter God Society with her own eyes. At this moment, Vena seems to have been brainwashed by some fanatical lofty ideal.
Seems to be reasonable, but lacks reason.
"The Exorcism Tower, the Hunter Society..."Luo Wei was suspicious in his heart. Rowe didn't dare to believe what Vina said, even though Vina had a face that made it difficult for everyone to say "no".
……
"Next, in the evening... Where are you going to live? After chatting about the heavy topic, Luo Wei asked. His expression was a little embarrassed. But come to think of it, with such a girl by her side, Luo Wei's night will be full of "happiness" and hardship. Before turning on the light, the soft, beautiful touch that Luo Wei felt made his expression wander for a moment.
"Hmm..."The girl was also a little embarrassed. Vina and Rowe's eyes met from time to time and staggered.
Just then, the door to Rovi's room was opened. Little Lori Luo Yanyan walked in with bare feet and rubbing her eyes.
"Brother, hungry." The eldest lady began to urge her husband.
When Luo Yanyan opened her sleepy eyes, she suddenly found that there was another person in the room—a woman.
Big eyes staring at small eyes.
……
"Wow, did my brother start bringing his girlfriend home for the night? Is this sister a junior? Luo Yanyan suddenly came to her senses, her eyes blinked, and she looked cheap and cute.
Vena is no longer a member of the Exorcist Tower, but she is just a girl of the same age as Rowe. was said to be "Little San'er" by a seven or eight-year-old girl, and her face was suddenly burned into a red apple.
"Ahem... This sister fell from the sky, not a junior. Luo Wei pinched Luo Yan's baby fat cheeks.
"You and... Sister Vina, let's play, brother will cook for you. Rowe walked out. Despite meeting Vina for the first time, and despite the somewhat unbelievable way in which the two met, Vina also seems to have fallen under some kind of fanatical sublime thought. But Luo Wei believes in his intuition about the good and evil of others, and believes that Vina, who has such a pair of eyes, will not hurt Luo Yan.
……
Eventually, Vina slept in Rovi's room. Luo Wei wanted to sleep on the sofa, but little Lori took advantage of this rare opportunity and pulled Luo Wei to her bed. It's been a long time since the brother and sister have slept together so closely. Looking at Luo Yanyan, who was drooling and sleeping on her back, Luo Wei's heart overflowed, and only his brother could feel the softness and warmth.
……
Early in the morning, Vina left Lovi's house, and Rowe stared at the message board, which was the messenger number Vena had left for him.
"Being friends with a beautiful woman, well, it's not a loss." Luo Wei touched his chin, which was starting to show some stubble.
Suddenly, the date reminder on Rovi's microcomputer popped up—
"It's the hoverbike circuit for the weekend," Rowe sighed. He actually likes hoverbikes, but on weekends he prefers to have time to practice martial arts on his own. Since returning to Yanjing and reintegrating into the life of the apostles, the practice of martial arts seems to be getting farther and farther away from Luo Wei. Will it eventually become a completely difficult ability to pick up? Rowe thought.
……
There are many different types of hoverbike events, such as world tours, rallyings, freestyle stunts, off-road championships, and more. Among them, the most influential is the tour event. Everywhere a Tour event arrives, the way it is played changes.
If it is a New York tour, the way of racing is to go around all kinds of buildings, traffic, and most importantly, it must have a street sense, and street motorcycle technology also occupies a large proportion. In addition, the difficulty of the challenge and the specific events of the World Tour in New York will vary greatly with each World Tour.
The World Tour stage will be a major event for the 12 Silver Stars and a number of countries. But qualifying for the World Tour is not easy. If you want to represent national, federal, regional, etc., you must be the first to compete in regional events. The number of places for the Federation of Stars to enter the World Tour is not more than three or four. That is, the final points must reach the top four to stand a chance.
And this weekend, the Tour Finals of the Star Federation Suspension Motorcycle will produce the top four points.
Luo Wei hugged Luo Yanyan with one hand, so that she could not be squeezed out of his sight by the crowd now.
Now, most of Yanjing City is carnivaling. If the Saints' Cup is just an event for the apostles, and a small number of ordinary people who like the apostolic game. Then, the levitation motorcycle competition has so far become a national event only under the traditional sports such as football and basketball.
The venues and roads used for the flotted motorcycle federal tour have all been emptied at the moment. At the start of the tour and on both sides of the venue, there were crowds of cheering and shouting. Many AI order police had to take to the streets and step up patrols to prevent chaos from happening.
No matter when, no matter how much the academic literacy is improved, once a group of people gathers together, the long-suppressed fanaticism in their hearts will be released. At this time, the crowd is irrational at all, or in other words, the "crowd" has become another form of life organization-
The individual is like a cell, and the "crowd" is a deformed creature dominated by a frenzied and disordered "crowd fanaticism".
Right now, a pre-race hoverbike stunt show is underway. Every unbelievably dangerous move of a motorcyclist will cause the crowd to scream or scream wildly.
