Chapter 300: A Night of Chaos (1)
"Wait, Lord Dominator!"
Seeing that Su Mo was about to leave, the old hunter hurriedly shouted.
"What else?" Su Mo asked.
The expression on the old hunter's face changed for a moment, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, okay, I'll tell everything I know......"
"It would have been nice to say no sooner." Su Mo sat down again.
The old hunter, like Su Mo, is actually not a person from the old world, but an outsider, but his entry into the old world was a complete accident, and at the same time, it means that the ruler of chaos is still there.
"It's an indescribable thing, and when we look at it, a lot of people go crazy." The old hunter said with trepidation, "Later, I somehow became a scavenger of this world. ”
"Once, I didn't know what the Dominator of Chaos was thinking, or if he wasn't thinking at all, and I had a chance to steal its power." A look of horror appeared on the old hunter's face, "And then, I just did it. ”
"What's next?" Su Mo asked.
"What's next?" The old hunter looked up sharply, and his face suddenly changed, forming seven or eight faces in just one second, constantly changing, "Then I lost myself and became part of the chaos. ”
A different voice came out of the old hunter's mouth: "I went through seven, no, eight, no, I forgot, what did I go through?" The expression on his face was sometimes painful, sometimes desperate, sometimes smiling, and it looked very strange.
Su Mo frowned, the air flow around him seemed to change, and the old hunter was shocked, and all the illusory faces on his face disappeared.
"Whew-"
After a few violent gasps, the old hunter slowly recovered, looked at Su Mo and said, "Thank you, Lord Dominator." ”
"Your state?" Su Mo opened his mouth and said.
"After the old rulers are gone, I am still in a state of chaos. But after all, I was a former scavenger, and when others stepped into this world, I began to regain my sanity a little, and then you, Lord Dominator, seized this world, and my duties as a scavenger took over, and the influence of those chaotic wills gradually decreased. The old hunter said.
"What do you mean by leaving and delivering?" Su Mo asked, "It shouldn't make you completely return to normal, right?" ”
"It's not." The old hunter shook his head, a sad look on his face, "It's real death, chaos will stay with me forever." I only wish that Lord Dominator could grant me eternal peace. ”
Part of the chaos left by the old ruler was on the old hunter, and if Su Mo planned to do it, the old hunter's death was inevitable.
"You can't remember what happened?" Su Mo asked.
The old hunter shook his head.
"Forget it, I'll do it myself." Su Mo suddenly stretched out his hand, and the old hunter's body suddenly levitated.
However, the old hunter did not have any resistance, but closed his eyes, or even if he wanted to resist, it was impossible to disobey the will of Su Mo, the new ruler of the old world.
Su Mo also closed his eyes and began to dig into the depths of the old hunter's mind to see what this guy had been through.
After a while, Su Mo opened his eyes and looked at the old hunter in front of him. In his mind, there was only a mess in the depths of his memory, only a few sporadic fragments flashed, indicating that he seemed to have experienced another life, so that in the end he could not keep his heart, forgot who he was, and fell into chaos.
"In that case......" Su Mo secretly said in his heart, if he just experienced another "life", it would not be a matter at all for Su Mo.
As an old monster who has lived for thousands of years, he often cosplays, and it is not difficult for him to stick to his heart.
"Let's get started!"
――――――――
One year, due to a series of problems such as the near-collapse of the economy and the skyrocketing crime rate due to the expansion of the population, the US government replaced a group of new officials with confused brains, and after taking office a group of new congressmen whose brains had been kicked by a donkey, they passed an unbelievable bill -- purge.
During the 12 hours from 7 p.m. on March 21 to 7 a.m. the next morning, all fire, hospital, police and other institutions completely cease to operate, and during these 12 hours, all criminal acts become legal acts and there will be no accountability afterwards.
In other words, these 12 hours are a time when there is no law, no order, only chaos, and only government officials above level 10 in the entire United States have immunity.
After the introduction of the bill, it inexplicably achieved great success, the crime rate in the society decreased significantly, the unemployment rate fell, the economy recovered, and the society was stable.
The purge program was so popular that it became an annual "carnival".
In a city, in a wealthy area, James is driving his car home, and he is a salesman for the security system -- and the captain of a team, the manager. After the promotion of the purge program, he successfully sold the security system of the security company he worked for to many people, from ordinary people to wealthy, and expanded his house into a villa, which was the envy of his neighbors.
For James, who has almost all the happiness, he will not go out on the night of the 21st to vent his anger, he will only be inside the house, turn on the security system, defend the house, and spend this chaotic night with his family.
If there's one thing about James that is a little uneasy and frustrating, it's his third child, the twelve-year-old son, Jason. The child inherited his mother's black hair and was a rather delicate and good-looking boy, yet he suffered from autism.
Since he was born, he hasn't even cried a few times, and he looks at the world with big eyes, sometimes so deep that James, a father, feels a little scared.
Fortunately, unlike some other autistic people who will hurt themselves, Jason just doesn't talk or communicate with others, he doesn't do anything to hurt himself, and he does things in a straightforward way, and he still grows up healthy under the care of James and his wife Mary.
Although she was only twelve years old, she was about the same height as her eighteen-year-old sister Zoe, and of course surpassed her other son, Charlie.
When the two of them stood together, Jason, who didn't have much expression on his face, looked more like an older brother.
Despite the love of their parents, a child who does not speak or communicate naturally cannot have a good relationship with the other two children, and Zoe and Charlie treat Jason like strangers living at home.
Of course, Jason's attitude towards the two of them was more like air, and he only reacted slightly to James and Mary's words.
This is a headache for James, and it is impossible for him and his wife to take care of Jason for the rest of his life.
Greeting neighbors along the way, wishing them the night and saying something like Heavenly Father's blessing, James drove into the garden outside the house.
His house has become one of the most luxurious in the neighborhood, thanks to the fact that the surrounding neighbors have bought James's security system, which belongs to the wealthy area, and the security of each family is very good. Generally speaking, even on this chaotic night, there are very few situations that happen around here.
James, who has spent a lot of nights, didn't think too much about this night this year.
"I'm back."
James opened the door and walked into the room, and said to his wife, who was cooking in the kitchen, and the two of them got tired for a while, and began to prepare dinner together.
More than half an hour later, dinner was ready, and the two of them beckoned the children to start eating.
Jason didn't speak, but he was always the quickest, and he was the first to sit down at the table, and began to eat quietly, his head hanging down, and his dark eyes didn't look like a white man.
Sister Zoe said goodbye to her boyfriend and was the last one to come to the table and start eating.
"Okay, kids, tell us what happened today?" James said that talking about today's events at the dinner table is the traditional program of the Sandin family.
At the beginning, it was naturally so that Jason could get out of his closed heart, but then Jason didn't speak, but others talked about it, and the result was retained.
Charlie recounted what had happened today, including building a remote-controlled car with a surveillance function and a weird doll on it, and improving the motor to make it almost silent.
And Zoe rebelled and said reluctantly, but with his brother's words, he suddenly made a joke, and the sister and brother laughed together, and the parents next to him laughed helplessly.
After laughing, James looked at the other Jason, who was extremely calm, as if he was in another world, and said, "What about you, what happened today?" ”
Jason stopped his movement and glanced up at James.
James sighed, which was already Jason's best reaction.
"Sleep, then wake up." Immediately after, a voice reached the ears of several people.
"You...... What did you say? James looked at Jason in surprise.
Jason looked at James and said thoughtfully, "Sleep, and wake up." ”
"Oh my God, James......" Mary immediately became excited.
What followed was the typical American drama reaction, all kinds of excitement, all kinds of hugs and kisses, celebrating that their youngest son, Jason, had finally spoken.
However, Jason didn't say anything after saying these words, it looked more like he was thinking about something, and the James couple didn't force him to continue to say something, Jason's performance tonight had already made them very excited. (To be continued.) )
