Chapter 174: The Lord of Fire

On the first day after opening, someone started making trouble at the door. This was something Su Mo didn't expect.

He led everyone to the corridor window and looked down.

More than a hundred people gathered at the door of the Edge Building, holding anti-war slogans or purple flowers symbolizing peace.

Some of them were half-kneeling on the ground in silence, while others were excited and shouted loudly:

"Resist the atrocities of the fringe mercenary group! Sanction the butcher Su Mo!"

"In defense of human rights, we demand that Su Mo publicly repent! Apologize to the deceased members of the Muto family!"

"I oppose using violence to fight violence. Su Mo has no right to execute members of the Muto family!"

“Thugs’ lives matter!”

Su Mo finally understood that these people were here for Muto Toei.

I don’t know if it’s because someone paid me to instigate me, because I usually eat too much, or if I really have some kind of miraculous Virgin moral values.

Anyway, this group of people were dissatisfied with his method of rescuing the hostages of Xinghai Cinema and went to the Edge Building to protest.

Several mercenaries entering and exiting the building were stopped. Some of the protesters raised their middle fingers, some cursed, and a few knelt on the ground and cried wildly, as if those who died were their family members.

Dongdong was the first to lose his temper: "A bunch of stupid dogs! Wait, I'll go down and beat them all away!"

Su Mo shook his head: "No, these people just want to make things bigger, gain attention and sensationalize. If you beat them, it's too late for them to be happy."

Dongdong curled his lips: "What should we do?"

Su Mo said calmly: "Let them shout, no one will care. As long as they don't enter the building and smash things, don't worry about it."

"Hmph, I'm so unhappy!" Dongdong stuck his head out and spit out the bubble gum in his mouth to the crowd, not knowing which lucky person it would fall on.

At this time, Chu Nanyi flipped up her bangs coquettishly and said, "Captain, leave this matter to me."

In the game "Dawn", Chu Nanyi is a funny character with a lot of various tricks, which adds a lot of fun to Su Mo's journey to Dawn.

Upon hearing that he wanted to deal with this matter, Su Mo was really curious: "How are you going to do it?"

Chu Nanyi raised her middle finger in front of her lips to express confidentiality, and said with a smile: "If I handle it well, can Sister Dong reward me with a kiss?"

"Dong!" Dongdong kicked him between the legs again.

Chu Nanyi shrank into a ball in pain and forced a smile: "Sister Dong, at least we have resolved a crisis, so you must give me some reward."

Dongdong said calmly: "Okay, I will reward you. I will only kick you with half the force next time."

"Okay, it's better than nothing, that's settled." Chu Nanyi limped away with his legs clamped.

Outside the Edge Building, several Edge mercenaries were annoyed by the noise and couldn't help but cursed a few times.

Such protesters are not afraid of quarrels, but what they fear most is that no one will listen to them.

As soon as they heard the other party's retort, they all became excited and shouted slogans louder, attracting many people to watch and take photos.

Not long after, Chu Nanyi walked out of the building, holding a cat borrowed from his companion in his arms.

He shouted loudly: "Don't make any noise, don't make any noise, tell me if you have anything to say!"

The leading protester looked at him and asked, "Who are you? We want to see Su Mo!"

Some people grabbed the bubble gum residue in their hair and yelled: "Did you spit out the bubble gum? Do you have any quality?"

"It's none of my business to cough up bubble gum." Chu Nanyi cleared his throat and said slowly, "The leader is very busy. I am his spokesperson. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

The protesters held signs and shouted: "Why do you think so little about human life? The Muto family are innocent, and the lives of thugs are also life!"

Chu Nanyi said righteously: "Yes, the lives of thugs are also lives. You are right!"

After finishing speaking, he lifted the cat in his arms into the air with all his strength: "But isn't the life of a cat a life?!"

Maomao yawned and looked lazily at the protesters.

The protestors were confused by the fact that the eight poles could not be hit. It took a long time before someone came back to their senses and asked in confusion: "What does this have to do with cats?"

Chu Nanyi said sadly: "Do you know that the Muto family has a tradition of killing people. In order to exercise their courage, they usually practice with small animals. Cats are their most common targets."

"The lives of thugs also matter. You are right, but there are 39 people in the Muto family. If each of them kills a cat every day, 14,235 cats will die tragically a year. Do you know this? You don't know! You don’t care! You only care about yourself!”

The leading protester shouted loudly: "Don't change the subject! Killing people is killing people, killing cats is killing cats. Can this be the same?"

Chu Nanyi's eyes widened and he said righteously: "Why is it different?! All things in the world are equal, and human life is not more valuable than a cat's life! A cat's life is also a life!"

Some animal rights activists among the protesters nodded and agreed: "What he said is right."

Another group of protesters were dissatisfied and shouted back angrily: "Why should animals compare with humans? Humans can create civilization and wealth, but can cats? Killing ten thousand cats is not as serious as killing one person!"

Animal rights activists immediately became excited and accused these companions: "Fart! Every small animal has self-awareness and complex cognitive abilities. They should enjoy all the rights brought by the law like humans!"

Chu Nanyi immediately raised Maomao above his head and shouted loudly: "That's it! How can the world go on without Maomao? Just hold on!"

Soon, the protesters were attacking each other because of their different stances, calling each other:

"You animal rights activists are really retarded! If you love animals so much, you should think of animals as your fathers!"

"Anyone who doesn't understand how to protect animals has no empathy! If you empathize with people who harm animals, then you are also potentially violent!"

"Who are you calling a violent person? I participate in more protests in a year than you bathe Cat Daddy!"

"One mouthful of a cat dad, who is your dad? Your dad is worse than a cat!"

The scene was full of noisy quarrels. Those who had originally accused Su Mo were divided into two groups and started to curse.

Chu Nanyi hugged Maomao and continued to be passionate:

"What do you mean by having a cat father? Can't it be a female? Why do you assume its gender?"

"Cats should be protected, but dogs deserve to be bullied? Why don't you speak up for the dogs! I was so angry that I was shaking all over. My whole body was sweating and my hands and feet were cold on a hot day!"

"The latest research shows that plants also feel pain. Why do you only care about animals? When will we plant protectors stand up?!"

"You are all right! But do you know that eating meat will lead to climate warming and the destruction of tropical rainforests!"

"Speaking of meat, I'm not sure anyone really eats meat rice dumplings, right? Aren't all rice dumplings sweet?!"

Under Chu Nanyi's fire, the crowd of protesters was completely torn apart.

Animal rights activists and human rights activists are at each other’s throats.

The cat party and the dog party pointed at each other's noses and yelled at each other.

Vegetarians and meat eaters are at loggerheads over dietary issues.

The sweet rice dumpling eaters and the salty rice dumpling eaters started fighting.

These protesters split into more than a dozen small factions, blaming and attacking each other because of their different ideological positions.

As for the collective denunciation of Su Mo, they had completely forgotten about it.

The scale of the quarrel became larger and larger. These people wanted to increase their momentum, so they called their companions to confront people from other camps.

People from other camps didn't want to be at a disadvantage, so they also called their companions to calm down.

In this way, there were more and more people, and everyone was quarreling red-faced and pushing and shoving. Finally, they started arguing about issues such as "how many genders do people have?" and "does eating pork count as animal cruelty?"

When the Sheriff arrived, thousands of people gathered outside the Edge Building, divided into dozens of different camps and engaged in a massive brawl.

Sheriffs used pepper spray and tear gas to disperse the crowd and arrested a dozen rioters before calming things down.

Chu Nanyi, the King of Gonghuo who instigated all this, was sitting on the steps, staying out of the incident and feeding the cat with a canned cat.

The cat was eating the can and looking lazily at the stupid humans.

Chu Nanyi returned to Su Mo with the cat in his arms and gave out his iconic smile in the game: "Hey, hehe~ It's fun!"

Su Mo gave a thumbs up: "It's up to you to have fun."

"You can't tell, this junior is quite capable." Dongdong smiled and raised his foot, making a gesture to kick again.

Chu Nanyi quickly clamped her legs: "No, no, no, I've done everything, why are you kicking me?"

"I'm kidding you." Dongdong took out two lollipops, unwrapped one and put it in his mouth, and handed the other to Chu Nanyi, "Here, here's your reward."

Chu Nanyi flicked her tongue and said with a romantic expression: "Sister Dong, can I have the one you've eaten?"

Dongdong: "I'll kick you if you keep talking nonsense."

Chu Nanyi quickly took the lollipop and said, "Just kidding, just kidding."

Su Mo looked at the mess outside the building, smiled and said, "Okay, let's play, let's make trouble, the safety of the building cannot be ignored."

He made a holographic phone call to the future.

Light and shadow intertwined on the mobile phone screen, and the upper body of the future appeared in the form of an image. She asked: "Boss, what's wrong?"

Su Mo: "In the future, have you taken care of the building security measures I told you before?"

Future: "It will be taken care of during the renovation. The entire building is covered with a monitoring network designed by me. The cameras will scan the biological signs of all people entering and exiting. Those who are not included in the whitelist will be automatically transmitted to the security center."

"Every fifth floor of the outer building has a concealed tower core, which is purchased from Death Scythe Military Industry and can automatically identify approaching aircraft and climbers trying to sneak in. The security center can unlock weapon permissions according to the situation. Let them attack.”

The efficiency in the future is as high as ever, which made Su Mo sincerely admired. He asked: "According to your assessment, how strong is the security system?"

Future grinned, and his smile was distorted: "Boss, let me tell you this, I am looking forward to someone invading the Edge Building. By then they will know what fire suppression is. Hehehehe!"

This creepy laughter gave Su Mo goosebumps. He knew that he no longer had to worry about the safety of the Edge Building.

At this time, Future said: "By the way, boss, come to the basement. I have major results here."

"Okay, okay, here we come." Su Mo couldn't wait to run to the basement.

An achievement that can be called "significant" in the future is definitely extraordinary.

Dongdong and KK were also curious and followed him.

The underground laboratory is brand new, with various research instruments neatly arranged, and it looks full of high-tech feel.

In the future, he stood in front of a mechanical platform and handed Su Mo the remaining treasure and several magazines: "Two things. The tracking bullet for this gun has been developed and is ready for mass production. You can use it as you like in the future."

"Great!" Su Mo gave a thumbs up, took the hand-remnant treasure and put it on the table.

After recognizing Su Mo's fingerprints, Shou Can Bao's intelligent personality module was activated, and a rough voice sounded: "You bitch! Leave me alone for two months. There are other guns outside, right?"

Su Mo laughed loudly and touched it: "Oh, I'm sorry for you. No matter how powerful the guns are outside, they can't compare to you, Baozi."

KK had seen the hand-remnant treasure before and didn't think it was strange.

Dongdong saw it for the first time, and she exclaimed in amazement: "This gun can actually talk! Hey, what's your name?"

Shou Canbao is as mean as ever: "What are you doing? I'm your father!"

Dongdong's expression changed and he yelled back angrily: "I'm your mother! Can you speak?!"

Hand Can Bao: "I'm your grandpa! Stay away from me, I'll get annoyed when I see your pink-haired head!"

Dongdong: "I'm your grandma! You don't even have a head, how dare you accuse me?!"

Both sides exchanged words with each other, one person and one person with one shot, but they actually got angry like this.

Future walked towards a closed area and waved to Su Mo: "Boss, here, I'll show you the important results."

Su Mo warned Dongdong as he walked: "It's okay to scold him, but you're not allowed to smash it. This gun is very rare."

He walked into the closed area, and Ren Dongdong and Shou Canbao were having a passionate exchange outside.

There is a large terminal computer in the closed area, connected to a table full of precision machinery.

"Hey~" Su Mo whistled, "Is this the new blood code compiler we bought?"

In the future, he sat on the chair and said, "Yes, I have been studying what you call the "ancestor blood code" through blood samples for the past two months. "

"Boss, I want to ask you something. I don't think it's convenient for you to answer it - you used to be from Hefei Company, right?"

Faced with his trusted companion, Su Mo did not hide anything: "Yes, I used to be from the company, but now I have erased the information and changed my identity."

Future nodded: "Sure enough. The "Ancestral Blood Code" in your body is different from any blood code on the market. At first glance, it is an experimental product that has not yet been released. "

"The person who researched this blood code, I can only say that he is really out of his mind. How dare he think about multiple blood codes? Is he still alive?"

This question really stumped Su Mo.

Is "Dr. Chen" considered alive or dead now?

This body is alive and occupied by oneself.

But I don’t have the memory of Dr. Chen, and that personality didn’t exist long ago.

That counts as life or death.

Su Mo struggled for a while and said, "Just treat him as dead."

Future said regretfully: "Oh, what a pity. I really wanted to communicate with him."

Su Mo: "So what did you research?"

Future: "I won't explain the principles to you. It's too obscure and complicated. In short, after repeated experiments during this period, I found a way to unlock the new ability of the ancestor's blood code."

In the game, the ancestor's blood code ability has many branches. Su Mo couldn't wait to ask: "Oh? What ability?"

Future said slowly: "It has something to do with swallowing. The initial ability of the ancestor blood code is to allow the bearer to swallow other people's blood codes and make multiple blood codes compatible in the body."

"For example, as a Crimson Rose Blood Code bearer, if you swallow the Crazy Skeleton Blood Code, you will get an additional Crazy Skeleton Blood Code."

"Normally speaking, after you devour other people's blood codes, your new blood codes will start from "Awakening Low Level", and you will have to slowly increase the level later. "

"This method is extremely inefficient. If every new blood code has to be practiced from scratch, how long will it take to practice it? So I'm looking for a shortcut for you."

She motioned for Su Mo to lie down on the blood code compiler, and her smile became mysterious: "Now, the shortcut has been found."
