Journalists flocked to the area, and the flash of the cameras flashed in the air, creating a bright ocean. They gathered in one place, microphone in hand, and the camera was pointed at senior officials from various countries as they stepped out of the car. The whole scene was lively and noisy, full of tension.

A young man with blond hair and golden eyes stood in the crowd, dressed as a neat journalist, looking professional and stylish. Her blonde hair shimmered in the sun, and her golden eyes were full of intelligence and curiosity; He holds a camera in his hand, and the lens keenly captures everything around him; His fingers nimbly adjust the camera's parameters to capture every moment accurately.

The watch on the left hand of the blonde youth was flashing with an orange light.

[Today is the day of the Central Security and International Affairs Summit, which covers topics such as international security, international relations, and military cooperation; According to the current situation in Terra, the main topic of this summit is related to military cooperation, and the main topic may involve the distribution of the new Flanged developed [Archaeopteryx XI] combat vehicle——]

[Monte Carlo has deployed almost fifty new dragon genera, which has sparked some bad controversy, and this summit aims to reconcile international contradictions within the borders-]

"The dragons of France, the weapons and equipment systems of Berlin... and the placement of them in Monte Carlo is a great provocation for any country that claims to be sovereign and independent. It's no wonder that the [Relief Society] and the [Salvation Army] immediately responded to the innumerable number of people, and if the Blood God came here to spread his [War Ideology], it would be even more uncontrollable. Xia Xiu was mixing in the crowd and taking pictures, while communicating with [Adam] in his head.

[The Inquisitors of the Inquisition are already sniping at the Blood God Cultists and [Famous Generals] who are active in the world, and in order to prevent the spread of [War Ideology] in Monte Carlo, the [Curtain of Ignorance] has been shrouded in Monte Carlo in advance, and you will have first-level access to the Mi Maiden's weapon-]

"The people in Youyang are too anxious, and the advance of the Far East and the change of the starry sky have already made them a little confused. I understand that they want to establish a new central authority before escapism prevails, but now this situation is one by one, no one wants to be a lamb to the slaughter, everyone wants to be the executor of violence, the mother of violence has completely permeated the whole of Terra, and this era is the era that the blood god likes the most. ”

"The real goal of the [Salvation Army] and [Relief Society] is probably to go to the new dragon aircraft, and they probably want to deconstruct the dragon technology of the flange, increase the diversity of their own pedigree, and by the way, absorb a little more talent reserve through the revolution."

"The holders of the [Financial Beast] want to bet on the Messiah, they don't really want to complete the construction of extraordinary state institutions and the extraordinary independence of the state, they just want to hold the chips in their hands and negotiate with the new central authoritarian institutions that are about to be formed by the central government - use their bargaining chips that can trigger the outbreak of civil strife among the restless revolutionaries in the country at any time, and coerce them to make certain political and military compromises, so as to consolidate their own position and interests."

"The so-called Three Kings are themselves speculators. The reason why they cooperated with the [Salvation Army's] anti-curtain movement was to use this summit to show the people of the Central Alliance the destructive power they could create, and the revolutionary wave became an opportunity for them to flex their muscles. ”

"The civil strife in Monte Carlo is, in the final analysis, a temporal conflict caused by the conflict of interests between otherworldly factions. The Monte Carlo government and the local supernatural security bureau want to echo the nascent central authority and work towards central integration; The prince's faction is divided into two factions, one faction wants to use the [financial beast] under the Great Depression and the [salvation way] of the people to complete the extraordinary independence at the national level; The other faction wanted to echo both the government and the Security Bureau, and the prince's reformers, and finally timid, and the civil strife continued. ”

"So in the end, it is the people at the top who crackle their calculations, and the people of Monte Carlo give their blood and lives in vain for these struggles at the top, and their idealistic demands end up being the bargaining chips of others."

Xia Xiu took a picture of a penguin newspaper employee in the distance wearing a disguised [Wandman Communication], and the chubby penguin was patting the senior official of Youyang frantically, and his fleshy face was full of excitement.

The blonde young man uploaded a number of photos of the penguins on his camera to the pedigree, and planned to have the authorities hold them down and shut them up for a few days, so that they could know that they could not be seen casually. At the same time, he continued to say to [Adam] in his head:

"So does this count, you stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, the people who watch the scenery look at you from upstairs, the blood god decorates your window, you decorate other people's dreams."

"This kind of tragedy of the world, which is perpetuated by the bloody struggle of the upper classes, is always staged in a cycle, creating a never-ending crisis for mankind."

[Suppress all possible Honkai crises, this is the mission of the Authority!] ]

"Yes, crises need to be contained, and untimely ambitions need to be suppressed."

Xia Xiu put down the camera in his hand, he had been dressed as a reporter since two days ago and mingled in the crowd, in order to more conveniently observe the group that might cause a riot next.

He already knew from Martin's memory that the entire Monte Carlo bus company was under the control of [the Salvation Army].

The so-called anti-curtain movement [of The Salvation Army] will protest at the following ten nodes:

Casino Square, Port Helkuller, Lalvoto Beach, Old Town of Monaco, Place de Armas, Fontville, Grimaldi Forum,

Monte Carlo Country Club, Casino Gardens, Monegiti.

The scope of the impact covers the entire Monte Carlo trunk area, and the main social groups are mostly social youth, school students and social movement organizations.

Xia Xiu was already imagining in his mind the sequence of the crisis outbreak caused by this bureaucratic hazard:

Heightened emotions and anger among protesters→ police intervention and violent repression, heavy-handed intervention by law enforcement agencies, excessive force or violent repression provoke protesters, trigger violent responses→ involve extremists who join the protests to achieve their own ends, take more violent actions, increase tensions→ social unrest and discontent→ deliberately spread false information that exacerbates tensions→ spreads violence and destruction, and once violence begins, there is bound to be a chain reaction, Attract more people to participate, causing property destruction and social chaos.

This is the collapse crisis of the present world induced by the bureaucratic hazard of the Great Depression.

If the curtain is added, then the Blood God's [War Ideology] is bound to spread throughout Monte Carlo, leading to large-scale bloody and violent massacres in the territory, which is not the first time in Terra.

Human, always.

It is always impossible to learn the lessons of history.

"[Adam], let the Authority's people enforce the intervention before the law enforcement agencies violently intervene, and the first task is to extinguish the lifting of the curtain, and the second is to contain the escalation of violent conflict.

dilute and share the use of the [Curtain of Ignorance] with the [Executives] of all Authorities in the territory, and let them use the Miscellaneous weapon to shield the memories of the territory; Ask all [Executives] to open the trip log, allow free fire, and kill recalcitrant enemies.

Remember, keep the [Curtain of Ignorance] shielded, and take out the enemy cleanly before causing a bigger riot. ”

[Command uploaded-]

"The next thing is on my side."

Xia Xiu had already walked out of the wave of reporters at this time, and his golden eyes were looking farther into the distance.

The lush vegetation on both sides of the street is full of greenery, adding a touch of life to the whole area. Flowers and trees sway gently in the breeze, injecting a touch of natural vitality into the environment.

People come and go in the streets and alleys, and various costumes and languages are intertwined into a colorful picture. Shop windows are filled with merchandise, and a crowd of people with black canvas bags loom out of the block.

Although they were dressed differently, they had similar eyes.

Enthusiasm, indignation and, a little scarlet.

"The banner is very good - our choice, our right."

Xia Xiu, who had [Perfect Prosthetic Eye], easily looked through the banner of the fiber cloth bottoms and saw the slogan inside.

"If there is no blood god, there is no [financial beast]..." The blonde youth pulled out a Rubik's cube, he looked at them and whispered to himself, "Unfortunately, there is no if." ”

The huge EVE particles on Xia Xiu's body poured into the [Imprison Rubik's Cube], and a strange rhythm resounded in the air, like an ancient incantation, instantly passing through the thin veil of space and spreading throughout the Grimaldi Forum.

At the same time, [Vashak] also floated out of his body.

【Imprisoned Rubik's Cube: Activated!】 】

[The Crowner]'s massive flow of EVE particles went straight into the narrow hole of the [Imprisoned Rubik's Cube], and the massive and thick torrent of particles directly broke through its limits, forcibly expanding its reality distortion range.

[Please select a contest participant——]

Xia Xiu's huge spirituality selected all the suspicious elements, and he chose them with the criterion of preferring to catch mistakes and not letting them go.

【Selected!】 】

At this moment, a Rubik's Cube suddenly appeared in the hands of everyone on the periphery of the Grimaldi Forum, and the colored blocks emitted an eerie glow in the twilight daylight.

People looked at the Rubik's Cube in their hands in amazement, as if they were bound by a mysterious force, and they couldn't resist stretching out their fingers and began to try to solve the mystery of the Rubik's Cube. Their fingertips touched the surface of the Rubik's Cube, and suddenly, their minds seemed to be invaded by an ancient force, and they began to involuntarily turn the cubes.

【Restoration・Begin——】

[This restoration is a third-order restoration, the winner is exempted from imprisonment, and the rest are prisoners!] 】

[The timer starts in ten seconds——]

The colored squares swirled rapidly in their hands, making a low humming sound, as if chanting an incomprehensible movement.

Their vision blurred, their consciousness began to sink, and their fingers continued to manipulate the Rubik's Cube, refusing to stop.

"Restoration! Restore the Rubik's Cube! Revert it! ”

A terrible murmur rang in the ears of everyone who held the Rubik's Cube.

The eerie murmur seemed to be a twisted spell, the longing call of a imprisoned soul. It does not belong to this world, but it invades the boundaries of reality and brings an eerie resonance.

A powerful force began to gather, filling the air. It was a darkness from the abyss, swallowing all the light and casting the entire city in shadow. People began to feel an irresistible sense of oppression, as if their souls were being held tightly by an invisible hand.

Everyone's hearts couldn't help but tighten, and they began to quickly conceive the idea of solving the Rubik's Cube in their minds, they must make themselves the winner after ten seconds, no one wants to be imprisoned by this inexplicable Rubik's Cube.

【Restoration begins!】 】

[Timing: 0.09 seconds!] 】

[End of restoration——]

“·····”

“·····”

Everyone was stunned.

0.09 seconds?

What are you kidding, just turning the Rubik's Cube is not enough for this time.

[Captivity: Begins——]

Suddenly, the color of the Rubik's Cube in the hands of all the participants changed, turning into a deep darkness, full of mystery and weirdness. Everyone's eyes were wide and glazed, like puppets swallowed by darkness.

"No, don't come here!!"

"Help!!"

Some people tried to throw away the Rubik's Cube, but the Rubik's Cube was tightly attached to their palms, and they couldn't shake it off.

Rumble!!!

A low roar echoed through the air, and with it a dark void, like an endless abyss, devouring all the losers.

Bang~

Bang~

In an instant, there were many third-order Rubik's cubes on the ground on the periphery of the entire summit.

The others, who were not chosen, walked down the street as if nothing had happened, not noticing the strange situation of many people suddenly missing from the street.

Recently, people have been busy, and I have recently started to resume physical exercise, and people are a little uncomfortable, and the amount of training is not grasped well, resulting in people being very tired recently······

Dizziness when coding words.
