Chapter 486: Repeat Offense Gladiatorial Arena

After assembling the prisoners who were about to be executed, they were taken to the main stadium of the city where the newly opened Space-Time Gate was located. This is the place where they were executed, but it would be more accurate to say "altar" or gladiatorial arena!

The prisoners, who had been kept in the dark until now, finally knew what their fate was. Although the outside world has hyped up the past month, these guys who have been locked in isolation do not know that their death time has come.

In the long passage leading to the stadium grounds, the felons were given various cold weapons by the security planes, and soon they were escorted to the stadium grounds in batches to kill each other until the final winner appeared......

Shen Chao was inspecting a modern arena converted from a stadium in Vegas, which, like many old stadiums on this dimensional earth, had no lawn due to lack of maintenance and rainfall, only yellow sand and fine stones.

For decades before the Temporal Council's mechanical armies took over the area, the stadium was a "youth training base" for local gangsters, where ignorant teenagers from the slums were captured or lured by criminal syndicates and eventually trained into unscrupulous professional criminals.

And now, as if history had played a big joke, a qiē has turned the other way around, and a large number of professional criminals will end their lives here! At this time, the audience in the gladiatorial arena was already overcrowded.

Except for some family members of the victims who entered for free, most of the rest were ordinary citizens who paid out of their own pockets to see the execution of these heinous criminals. Although the criminal culture here is strict, it does not mean that everyone is involved in this degenerate culture.

Of the 12 billion people struggling to survive on the surface, nearly 10 billion are labeled by the Samaritans as law-abiding and good citizens with no criminal record, and these people are the main force of the audience and the objects of this heavy ceremony to win over and win over.

Listening to the cheers in the arena, the felons who were still waiting to enter looked at each other. Some of them were religious and had taken up the little cross and prayed, and of course, as usual, there would be no divine power to come out to save them from the most heinous ones.

"Today is the day these demons face death, today is our day of revenge......" The host of the scene incited the audience's emotions with a surging speech, and it was hard to believe that this guy who was in the main seat of the media podium was a street juggler before the plane council took over this plane.

And in the incitement of this host and the cheers of the crowd at the scene. A group of felons were escorted into the venue by security planes. After they entered the venue, the host announced the rules of the game, and all the prisoners had to kill each other until only 10 of the 100 prisoners sent here remained.

Such simple and brutal rules of brutality appeared in several stadiums that were also presiding over gladiatorial fights at the same time, and when these felons, who had already had blood on their hands, realized that their only way to survive was to kill their fellow inmates, most of them did not hesitate to kill their slow companions.

Their reactions were faithfully recorded by cameras that filled the corners of the arena, and later made into the famous and controversial documentary "Fury", which was banned for a time and finally received polarized reviews when the future Shen Chao learned about it and lifted the ban.

Proponents argue. For the inhumane criminals in the documentary, their expressions in the entire documentary, including their final deaths, are like a vivid social lesson, which blows countless children who want to learn from the bad gangsters, shatters their illusions, and allows everyone to see the true face of extremely violent criminals.

Opponents claim that such an act of countering violence with violence and making it into a documentary will only make things worse and breed more antisocial elements in the future. Although all relevant statistics are against this view.

For onlookers who witnessed the incident that day, the situation was much more complicated. Some of the people who were sitting in the seats of the victims' families in the stands and ordinary people in front of the television were shocked by the sighting of the round-up.

Some of them later became celebrities in the peaceful world. And in public, he expressed his support for this controversial siege. Of course, that's all for the future. At present, most of the spectators and the prisoners in the venue who do not know the truth have been overturned by this nonsensical rule.

The propaganda they had heard before they arrived was that it was a general reckoning with felons presided over by the Plane Council, and they weren't ready to watch a gladiator brawl that seemed to jump out of the dustbin of history.

Therefore, when the audience saw the scene of blood and brains flying in the venue, many people felt uncomfortable, and adults with children covered the eyes and ears of the children around them. Some also tried to leave halfway.

"You've managed to scare a whole bunch of people stupid again, man! Custer, who had just arrived at the viewing platform, stood and commented, he had just returned from his mother's plane, and he was still wearing dusty armor, which was in strong contrast to Shen Chao, who was dressed in a neat formal suit next to him.

"Their confusion is necessary. Revealing the mystery now is not conducive to the final drama......" Shen Chao said, handing him a drink and soothing himself nearby, and a few assistants prepared seats for Custer and other things.

Usually Shen Chao is always running around, and his assistants rarely follow him, but in the past month, his whereabouts have been relatively stable, so he took these guys that he usually found annoying with him.

There were 17 of his assistants and liaison officers in total, both men and women, all professionals who handled all kinds of professional duties, and now there were 6 of them around him, and these fellows stood in a row behind them like a group of stewards, and set off the two of them as if they were governors and generals who watched similar ceremonies in ancient times.

"Do you really expect them to understand what you mean?" When the mystery is revealed, their most likely reaction is to be stupefied by your arrangement...... However, if this publicity stunt really works, then maybe I should also learn to do some dramatic reform ......."

Custer whispered after sitting down, he wasn't completely saying this to Shen Chao, especially the second half of the sentence, which sounded more like talking to himself. Shen Chao knew the reason why he said this, Custer's reform attempt in his mother plane was not very smooth.

Although his ideal was not to save the world, but only to save his homeland in the mother plane, many things did not go as he originally expected. As the boss behind the scenes, he pulled up a reformist political organization and successfully seized power.

But after seizing power, the political organization he set up quickly corrupted, although the overall situation is still under the control of him, the boss behind the scenes, but a series of policies to improve people's livelihood in his plan have been abolished, and materials have been stolen......

Months passed, and the lives of the people of his homeland had not been effectively improved by his attempts at reform, but the bureaucracy had become more powerful than ever under his intervention. Based on these setbacks, he would come back early to observe Shen Chao's attempt to reform the Elysium plane. Maybe it's just to learn some successful experience, or it's simply to see how Shen Chao will make a fool......

"Don't jump to conclusions, man. The IQ of the audience is still very high, they may be a bunch of short-sighted idiots in life, but here they all have the soul of an artist and the deep thoughts of a philosopher! Shen Chao retorted.

It's not that his confidence in the public is really strong, it's just that the statistics that the Samaritans show him are too convincing. Most of the spectators who are here now have been following the news until now, and they have stepped into the audience of this dueling arena with rational thinking and strong emotions.

The Spectators, who are scattered all over the continent and appear on television and computer screens, have their own brains, and the Samaritans have sent the latest statistics, and most viewers are disgusted when they hear the rules of the duel. And this is the ironclad proof that most earthlings in this plane have normal three views!

A person born in modern society, no matter how much he hates his enemies and criminals, will have his own moral and worldview bottom line. The fact that people hated this arrangement of ancient Roman slaughter rituals suggests that most people know that this is a step backwards in history.

What they have to do is to show the darkest and most brutal side of human history in front of all audiences, step by step, and finally end with the brightest ending possible.

Of course, due to the existence of many details in the operation, this round of propaganda offensive may also be a complete failure, or even counterproductive. However, this is not unacceptable, because the Elysium plane is now positioned as a large testing ground for the space-time council.

Not only such social realities, but also many new medical and unknown technologies will be tested here first, so that the degree of exploration can decide which technologies are safe and can be promoted, and which are just concepts that seem good.

From this point of view, the human society on Earth in this plane is like a seriously ill patient, and the Space-Time Council is an irresponsible doctor who prescribes a lot of new drugs. Shen Chao and the Samaritans he commanded were like two crazy surgeons, cutting open the skin of the patient's whole body under the maintenance of the effect of the anesthetic, and treating the patient's parts inch by inch with various practical therapies.

At the end of the day, it's not their primary concern about the patient's life or death, but whether these new treatments are effective and can be used in other patients who are less ill...... (To be continued......)

PS: First of all, thank you for the reward of "valky, gnawing books in the nest" as usual, and the second is expected to be very late tonight, so let's go to sleep when you should sleep, and come back tomorrow morning
