Chapter 404 Sparks Shine

Crescent City.

Today was supposed to be the handover day for the position of the city council speaker. Charles, the senior court official, will replace the former city council speaker Schenkov to manage the city.

Everything went smoothly at first, following the normal process of airport pick-up, welcoming guests, official banquet, and finally entering the handover ceremony, the top leader of Crescent City changed hands.

But just when it came to the official banquet, a dramatic change broke out.

Schenkov, the speaker of the Crescent City Council, launched a mutiny in the Moonlight Building, armed and hijacked Charles, the senior court official, and officially declared war on the world government and giant companies.

The news spread like wildfire throughout the city, setting off a huge wave among the people.

The people of this world, especially the people of Crescent City, have really endured the oppression brought by giant companies for too long.

They had previously scattered and fought on their own, and any voice fell on deaf ears, any effort was in vain, and they gradually became desperate and numb.

But when Schenkov launched a mutiny and sent the news to the whole city through online media, everything changed.

You know, this is the head of a huge city, an absolute big shot.

Such a person leads the way in open rebellion and calls on everyone to rise up. The effect it brings is unimaginable, making those dormant fires burn again.

The suppressed people finally broke out. They rushed to the streets like wildfire, broke the cordon and occupied various blocks, and attacked the Upper Court Guard stationed in the city.

The commanders of the Upper Court Guard at all levels were stunned on the spot. They didn't know what was going on. They were fine a few hours ago, but suddenly the big leader was hijacked, and the sight was full of angry civilians.

"Overthrow the world government and defeat the giant companies!"

"The running dogs of the giants! It's time for you to pay your blood debt!"

"For the future of our children, charge!"

One person raised his arm and thousands of people shouted. The crowds rushed the defense line of the Upper Court Guard in various blocks, and shouts were everywhere.

The soldiers of the Upper Court held blast shields and struggled to fight the crowd with their bodies. They turned around and asked loudly: "Sir! What should we do?!"

How could the commander know what to do? According to the principle, he must ask his superiors for instructions on such matters, but Charles has been kidnapped and cannot be contacted at all.

At this time, glass bottles were thrown from the back of the crowd.

The commander, who had experienced many battles, immediately recognized them and shouted: "Be careful! Molotov cocktails!"

These Molotov cocktails are homemade weapons, scientifically known as "Molotov cocktails". The flammable liquids inside are common civilian materials, which are very easy to make and often used in street riots.

The Molotov cocktails smashed into the line of the Upper Court Guards, and after exploding, they ignited many soldiers. The flames instantly covered their bodies, and the burning limbs kept waving, as if they had become moving torches.

"Ah! ! ! ! ! " Although most of the soldiers of the Upper Court Guards were extraordinary people and would not be killed by such homemade Molotov cocktails, the pain could not be offset.

They screamed in agony from the burning, and desperately rolled on the ground to try to put out the flames, but the liquid formed by the mixture of gasoline and accelerant was too flammable, and rolling alone could not put it out.

The other side had already used lethal weapons, and the Shangting Guards had their own privileges, so the commander no longer hesitated and shouted, "Live ammunition! Suppressive shooting!"

The front-row soldiers used explosion-proof shields to maintain the front line, and the soldiers behind raised their automatic guns and fired directly.

"Da da da da da--"

The bullets swept through the crowd, bringing up a large blood mist, and a large number of civilians were thrown to the ground, covering their wounds and wailing, and the blood dyed the ground scarlet.

The crowd was frightened and retreated, and the Shangting Guards took the opportunity to rescue their companions who were hit by the Molotov cocktails, and maintained the front line again, pointing the muzzles of the guns directly at the people, waiting for the next round of shooting orders.

The commander picked up the megaphone and warned sternly: "Everyone, return home immediately, otherwise you will be shot on the spot!"

The other side had guns in hand, and they would shoot if they said so. Even though people were angry, they were suppressed at this time.

There was a brief silence on the battlefield.

But soon, there was a commotion in the crowd.

Someone pointed to the sky and shouted: "Anti-violence Section 4 is here!"

Anti-violence Section 4, which was originally the most notorious unit in Crescent City. When performing tasks, they rarely care about civilian casualties and are more frightening than any robbers and murderers.

But in the past three years, under the rectification of Schenkov, the internal discipline of Anti-violence Section 4 has been greatly standardized, and people's fear of them has gradually decreased.

And this time, in the upheaval of history, Anti-violence Section 4 truly stood on the side of the people.

The airship with the hideous skull logo hovered over the battlefield, and the anti-violence team members in black combat uniforms directly launched an emergency landing in the hinterland of the Shangting Guard, falling into the formation like raindrops.

Crazy Skeleton Bones, Blood Crystal Spears, Prosthetic Blades. The discipline of the anti-violence team members has been standardized, but their tactics are as brutal as ever. They kill without any warning, and all kinds of supernatural powers are facing the faces of the Upper Court Guard.

Normally, the Anti-Violence Section 4 is a local force, while the Upper Court Guard is a force directly under the capital, and there should be a big gap in combat power.

But the soldiers of the Upper Court Guard soon discovered in amazement that these anti-violence team members are terribly strong. They are not only skilled in combat skills, but also have a very high level of supernatural power.

According to previous standards, the supernatural power of the members of the Anti-Violence Section 4 should be at the third stage.

For example, most of the prosthetic implant recipients have a full-body replacement of "military level 3" prosthesis, and the more powerful ones can be replaced with "military level 2".

If you can control "military level 1", you will be qualified to join the elite troops like Alpha Squad.

The reason why these anti-violence team members are stuck at the third stage is certainly due to their personal talents, but also to the resources invested in them.

For security forces like this that serve the authorities, giant companies generally do not invest too many resources, because there is no need.

Security tools are just consumables, and it is enough to be almost usable.

If you really want to train elites, why not train them within your own company?

So many times, anti-violence team members are not limited to that level by talent, but are limited by resources.

However, at this time, the strength they showed was extremely amazing. Many people have the strength of the fourth stage, and some extremely powerful ones have even stepped on the line of the fifth stage.

The soldiers of the Shangting Guards could not understand this at all.

It’s okay for blood code carriers, maybe they are gifted, and there is a possibility that they have secretly cultivated to perfection without telling outsiders.

Prosthetics are hardware! The manufacturing technology is only in the hands of the Iron Blood Union!

Iron Blood doesn’t give you good things, so what if you have high talent? How much talent can you play with a rubbish prosthetic?

The implant recipients of these anti-riot team members are all equipped with advanced prosthetics, and they have no concerns about the ultimate insurance at all, which only shows one thing.

The prosthetic manufacturing technology has been cracked!

Their prosthetics were not given by the Iron Blood Union at all, but by other forces!

Who? !

Who can do such a thing? !

No matter how incredible it is, the outcome of this battle is doomed.

The powerful anti-riot team led the rest of the security forces to attack the Shangting Guards on various streets.

These are not civilians who can only throw Molotov cocktails. They are well-equipped, well-trained, and have the support of the Anti-Rio Class 4. Their combat effectiveness is no less than that of the regular army.

Looking around, soldiers in combat uniforms of different colors staggered back and forth, bullets hit each other's heads and chests, and melee weapons chopped blood all over the sky.

The bloody melee lasted until the afternoon of the third day.

It must be said that as an elite force directly under the capital, the Shangting Guards have an extremely amazing fighting will.

Even in this kind of annihilation war where they were completely surrounded, they still did not surrender. They relied on the bunkers of the buildings and kept strangling the enemy. Even if they died, they would fight to the death to change one.

But with the concerted efforts of the security forces and the people, even the elite from the capital were drowned in the vast ocean of the people's war.

The black logo used by the Crescent City troops gradually became the main color of each street, completely controlling the city.

After the Shangting Guards were completely annihilated, Schenkov, who launched the mutiny, appeared.

At dusk, the orange-red light shone on the western sky, and also illuminated every soldier who had just walked out of the war, as if they were covered with a brilliant armor.

In the outer square of the Moonlight Building, the security forces controlled the order of the scene. Looking around, there were people everywhere, including men who were wounded and covered in blood in the battle, and women holding children. Even though the elderly had difficulty walking, they came here with crutches to witness the historic moment.

When Schenkov showed up with the tied Charles, the quiet atmosphere was broken. People booed the dignitary in court and cursed him.

"The dog of the giant is out! Kill this dog!"

"It's been more than a hundred years! Our ancestors have been oppressed by the giants for more than a hundred years! Let this dog pay with blood!"

"Kill him! Cheer for the brothers on the front line!"

The excited people came from all directions. If the cordon had not been set up at the scene and the security forces had not maintained order, Charles would have been torn into pieces.

At this time, the dignitary in court walked in front with his hands tied. His helpless eyes were like a stray dog ​​being beaten in the street. He looked at Schenkov behind him and begged: "Schenkov, if there is anything, we can discuss it slowly. It's not too late to turn back now. You are committing a capital crime by doing this!"

Schenkov's face was cold: "Go forward by yourself."

Charles shivered and could only keep walking.

Charles had just arrived in Crescent City. Strictly speaking, the people here were not familiar with him.

But the hatred is the same.

The giant companies that take human lives lightly, and the world governments under their control, owe people countless blood debts.

Why can Charles become the so-called "cost management expert" and do the most things with the least money?

Maybe he is indeed more capable than others, but more importantly, he knows which places and which people can be exploited.

What he gave to the leaders was the glamorous political achievements, but in those invisible corners, countless oppressed workers shed tears of blood.

He is the epitome of those insects.

The crowd was excited at the scene, and people cursed Charles to the extreme. Later, they picked up stones on the roadside and threw them at him from all directions.

Charles' body and face were hit by stones like rain, and bruises and swellings were everywhere. He wailed all the way and was hit all the way. Later, he even walked with blood dripping, and every step would leave mottled bloodstains behind him.

Finally, Charles could not walk anymore. He fell in the blood and screamed, begging for mercy, begging for the mercy that countless people had begged for him.

Schenkov raised his hands and quickly stopped the crowd from commotion, then walked over to Charles.

One of them was neatly dressed and stood with his head held high, while the other was covered in blood and dying, forming an extremely sharp contrast under the setting sun.

Schenkov's eyes swept through the crowd, looking at the faces that were either mature or young, and he said loudly: "Once upon a time, I was also a powerful official, and I was in cahoots with the people around me, and I was high and mighty and enjoyed everything with peace of mind."

"It was not until later that I witnessed the brutality of the authorities with my own eyes and saw through the hideous faces under the glamorous coat of the giant companies that I realized how shameful I was before."

"I can't undo the harm I have caused to everyone. But at least in the second half of my life, I can make my own choice, that is, to stand with you like now, and atone for my past self!"

"We may have been weak in the past, and felt that the giant companies were invincible like gods, and could only survive under their oppression. Panting, and finally numb. "

"But now I want to tell you! It's not like that! What about gods? Gods can bleed too - just this morning, we won the Battle of Tieyang!"

"The Crescent City troops led by Captain Su Mo successfully joined forces with the main force of the Wolf Raid, beheaded the giant's lackey Aso Ichiro, and nearly one million enemy troops surrendered!"

"Our ancestors have been waiting for more than a hundred years, and now it has finally arrived! This time, Crescent City will stand on the side of justice and fight for all human fellows!"

With thousands of people reflected in his eyes, Schenkov issued the most passionate declaration:

"The era of giants is over!!!"

After speaking, he took out his gun and shot Charles in the head, ending the life of this giant's lackey.

The cheers surged like a tide, resounding through the sky and echoing throughout the Crescent City.

After the speech and execution, according to the predetermined plan, Schenkov ordered the security forces to maintain order throughout the city, and led colleagues at all levels to resume the operation of the city and prepare for future events.

After working until late at night, Schenkov met Ivan in the corridor of the office.

The two were originally superiors and subordinates, but now they were not alienated. They lit a cigarette for each other and looked at the night view while smoking.

Ivan blew a smoke ring and said, "It must be tiring to hide yourself for so long."

Schenkov smiled and said, "It's the same. After Luo died three years ago, Su Mo told us about his big plan, and everyone has been hiding since then."

At this point, he looked at Ivan with interest: "To be honest, we didn't plan to include you at first. After all, you are a stubborn person. Everyone thinks you will definitely stand on the side of duty and the side of the world government."

Ivan's face showed a complicated look and shook his head: "During the beast crisis that year, I was disappointed with what I once stood for."

Schenkov smiled bitterly: "Who isn't."

Two people who originally belonged to the authorities smoked cigarettes, and the burning cigarette butts flickered in the dark like sparks. (End of this chapter)
