Chapter 333: An Army of Monsters
The Sea Lion City, which has always been internationally known for its wealth, stability, security and prosperity, has had three murders in succession since entering October, the most horrific of which is naturally the death of Li Junguo.
However, due to the fact that Chen Wu's death time was too close to the Polar Winter Festival, it was inevitable that the international influence caused by this incident was rapidly magnified under the watchful eyes of many melon-eating people who had nothing to do at home during the holiday.
As if it was like an appointment, a large number of international remarks about the national image of Sea Lion City swarmed up, and for a while, the limelight completely overshadowed the finals of the Mystery Professional League, and it was rare for Xia Ye Xia Squid's classmates to win the MVP of the last Global Mystery Professional League Finals, and they couldn't cry or laugh in their hearts.
For two days in a row, more and more news about the so-called "inside story" was sent out from all parts of the world, and soon, even the news at the beginning of the month when Li Junfei was blown up and killed in his car was linked to the Chen Wu case.
Coupled with the accidental death of Li Junguo, with the joint efforts of the majority of online critics, the political ecology of Sea Lion City has become more and more uncomfortable and strange, although there is no actual evidence, but all the spearheads point to the "Li family", "family politics", "political monopoly", "dictatorship" and other labels in Sea Lion City, which have been in the dust for a while.
As long as you are not stupid, normal people should be able to see that someone is definitely manipulating public opinion.
However, Da Li and Xiao Li are not vegetarians after all.
On the afternoon of October 28, the Sea Lion City Hall, which had been silent for 48 hours, launched a counterattack and sued the taxi operator, manufacturer and design company, demanding that the three companies give a satisfactory answer to the deceased and the family of the deceased.
Li Chengcheng appeared in person, and under the live broadcast of a large number of shots, he went to Chen Wu's house to offer condolences. That night, Chen Wu was treated as a state funeral, and his ashes were scattered into the sea, and various authorities and units up and down the sea lion city sent wreaths to Director Chen who was blown to pieces.
As soon as this trick came out, it really worked.
Tens of billions of online commentators around the world have diverted their attention and begun to debate who is responsible for the murder of the operator, manufacturer and design company, debating while happily greeting the women of the families of those who disagree.
Even if there are still people on the Internet shouting not to be distracted by this tune, our real enemies are Da Li and Xiao Li in Sea Lion City, but it is useless. People around the world who are at home on vacation are not interested in the family rule of Sea Lion City at all......
Then soon, late at night on the third day, the affairs of Sea Lion City were overshadowed by the Mysterious Professional League.
People have come back to their senses and begun to reminisce about the long history of the Mystery Pro League, and the nostalgic versions of various online battles have been put on the game platform, and about half of the world's 18 billion people, all of them have returned their attention to the game. The other half of the people are thinking about what to eat tomorrow. As for the murder of Sea Lion City, what is their business?
Public opinion comes and goes as fast as it comes.
In the city of sea lions, under the deliberate guidance of the city hall, the atmosphere is already extremely frenzied before the carnival month arrives. Everyone no longer worries about the safety of Sea Lion City, only when the free events start.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Li sat in his office, breathed a sigh of relief, and then sneered and scolded Li Guangming for being a fool, and he was going to die endlessly. Da Li put away his expression, which had always been unfazed, and scolded Li Chengcheng with a black face that he didn't know what to do, and he dared to make small moves in private. The two sides tacitly agreed that this was the other party's desire to engage in themselves, and the purpose was to completely oust the other party from power, so that they could monopolize the sea lion city from now on.
The flame of mutual distrust ignited at this moment.
Communication is impossible to communicate anymore.
If you don't directly tear your face and fire it, even if you take the overall situation into account.
On the upper floors of Sea Lion City, Mars seems to have arrived in front of the dynamite barrel.
It seems that the gun is about to explode at any moment.
However, the operation of the grassroots is becoming more and more compact and efficient because of the approach of the polar winter carnival month.
When all administrative systems of the city were shut down, and the garrison corps and police, secret service, and intelligence services took over the management of the city during the festival, the city finally revealed its most essential side.
Military management is the core factor that has maintained Sea Lion City to this day.
As the political and legal command center of Sea Lion City, Building 2, which also has the judicial functions of the military and police, has tensed nerves from the top to the bottom of the building in recent days.
And in the most unknown underground fourth-floor labor camp, to the guards guarding the breach in the phantom realm, everything that happened on the ground was nothing. What's wrong with Da Li and Xiao Li in the world? No matter who sits in the world, they don't live like this as soldiers? But the work of guarding the breach in the phantom world is very different.
The monsters in the phantom world don't tell people any big truths, and if you encounter them, you will live or die. In comparison, the political tricks of competing and intriguing are simply ridiculous.
During the three days of noisy noise on the ground, the four underground floors of Sea Lion City have been in a tense state of first-level alert.
Of the 6 passages, 5 were permanently closed, and the reason why one was left was entirely due to the cost of reopening the remaining 5 passages in the future - because the excavation of the passage required the acquisition of "spatial frequency", if it was opened indiscriminately, in case it was opened to the house of the big pineapple who did not know if it had been resurrected, then it was possible that the whole city would be wiped out.
But in any case, from the perspective of Sea Lion City, they have already done everything that needs to be done.
Not only did he transfer all the guards from the other five camps to Camp Six, but he even sent a commission to the Demon Hunter Guild. All of a sudden, diamond-level demon hunters from all over the world who didn't want to spend the New Year at home rushed to Sea Lion City, and within three days, they had assembled about a battalion of strength.
Of course, the cost is not low, 10,000 Dong Yuan per person per day for the diamond level, 50,000 yuan per day for the Star level, and 200,000 yuan per day for the king level, if there is a battle, the price will be ten times higher. Time goes until the end of the carnival month. The only pity is that there are only three king-level demon hunters here, but in the winter, only those demon hunters who owe huge foreign debts are willing to do this business. After all, even the Global Demon Hunter Guild will have to be on semi-vacation for the rest of the year.
October 29, 1 day before the Polar Winter Festival.
Early in the morning, the No. 6 camp of the Phantom Realm of Sea Lion City was boiling.
More than 100 Demon Hunter guards, more than 1,000 Demon Hunter prisoners, plus more than 1,000 Demon Hunter foreign aid, more than 2,000 people were huddled in the small camp, and laughter could be heard for several kilometers.
Xu Zhen, who had been appointed as the commander-in-chief of the No. 6 Phantom Realm Breach in Sea Lion City, looked at the scene in front of him quite helplessly, as soon as there were many people, it was easy to relax mentally, but with so many demon hunters gathered together, it seemed impossible to keep them from relaxing.
As soon as the camp gate opened, Xu Zhen was powerless to stop it, so he could only watch one after another teams of thirty or fifty people running out of the camp to farm monsters. In the past few days, people have come back from injuries every day, but because there are no dead people, this group of dogs will never remember what to eat, and then again, except for the global demon hunter union and Donghua National Energy to organize a collective action of this scale, there are almost very few semi-free and semi-military operations composed of professional demon hunters like this every year in the world.
Therefore, in Xu Zhen's eyes, although what he is performing now is a defensive mission, in the eyes of the demon hunters involved, this is simply a large-scale carnival that is exactly the same as on the ground.
"Boss, if you keep going like this, something will happen. ”
Sitting in the command room of the camp, Wang Canghai couldn't help but remind Xu Zhen.
Xu Zhen shook his head, very embarrassed: "Canghai, cutting off people's financial routes, such as killing parents." The demon hunters who come to support are not restrained, so we can't stop them from hunting......"
Wang Canghai couldn't help but say: "But we can't be so accommodating to those labor prisoners, right?"
Xu Zhen said: "The arrangement for them to renovate here was originally for economic purposes, and now the efficiency of these people harvesting things every day is more than ten times that of usual, if we intervene in it, the upper authorities will be dissatisfied." ”
Wang Canghai listened to it and said bitterly: "Then let's just do it and watch?"
"yes, that's what you think, or what do you think?" Money interjected faintly, then glanced at the floor. This room was originally rented by Yun Shu, and the coordinate imprint left by Geng Jiangyue before was here. But now, the mark has disappeared without a trace, and Geng Jiangyue has not returned for three days and three nights......
The danger of the Phantom Realm is unfathomable.
Even with the most arbitrary attitude, Moni can now basically confirm that Geng Jiangyue may have died outside.
At this point, it can be said that his task has been accomplished.
Staying until 6 p.m. tomorrow night is a temporary assignment given to him by the Sea Lion City Demon Hunter Guild. After 6 o'clock tomorrow, he will be completely free. According to the agreement, he can take the entire 100 million Dong Yuan from Li Chengcheng for the rest of his life for the rest of his life and pension expenses, and the next stop, after thinking about it, he still feels that the new Yorkshire of the Heber United Nations is the most suitable for him.
"With so many demon hunters here, what else is there to worry about? The phantom realm in this camp is not very breachable, as long as it occupies the advantageous location, it can form a one-man situation, and monsters can't break in at all. And don't forget, the creatures of the Phantom Realm are also afraid of death......"
Moni didn't bother to look at Wang Canghai's face, said to himself, put his hands behind his back, and walked out of the wooden house.
He walked leisurely to the gate of the camp, and around the camp, he could clearly hear the laughter of the witchers harvesting their prey coming from all directions. On the verge of death, reaping wealth at a very small price is really exciting.
He even heard yesterday that there was a pair of demon hunters who drank several bottles of brown sugar water, and after drinking it, they actually had a wild fight in that very dangerous grove, which was simply crazy.
And then there were more people going over there today......
Moni raised his head, listened to the roar around him, and took a deep breath.
Freedom, this is the air of freedom.
"Ah~~ hahaha......!"
"Hahahaha......!"
"Hahaha...... Ahh
A frightened roar instantly interrupted Moni's intoxicated mood.
He suddenly opened his eyes, and saw hundreds of wolves riding out of the woods in front of him.
Every giant wolf has fresh blood dripping from its mouth.
Around the camp, the cheerful atmosphere suddenly vanished.
A guard guarding the gate of the camp turned his head and ran away with a panicked face, and his nervous shouts quickly spread throughout the camp.
"The monsters are coming! The monster army! It's the monster army!"
