Chapter 916 - 916
Chapter 916: Betting... to Overthrow this Rotten Old World!
Watching those garbage trucks constantly approaching them, the garbage about to be dumped could submerge them at any time!
You know, garbage trucks are very huge.
In this city with an extremely large population, the amount of garbage produced daily is unknown, and garbage collection also becomes unusually difficult.
With such "killers" clearing the way, the rioting crowd pushed forward continuously again.
Accompanying the tear gas gradually dissipating by the street, nothing could stop their advance.
The turmoil quickly spread to every corner of the city center, and the Order Keepers also felt immense pressure.
The Game World has no concept of an army.
Their world is unified, and likewise has no concept of a country.
Infinite Group Myriad Worlds Terminal is the largest organization maintaining the order of this world.
The games of Myriad Worlds Terminal spread all over the world are the means for the group to maintain the stability of the entire world.
The social order built around games maintains the pace of continuous expansion, annexation, colonization, and development of the game world.
They established a technological system with Myriad Worlds Terminal as the core, plundering and harvesting soul-substance from other worlds as the driving force for development, coordinating with the Void Crack Infinite Energy Perpetuum Mobile and pixel game means to maintain the continuous development of the world.
Adaptation is the most terrifying ability of every life.
It can even influence self-cognition.
Just like the people of this world, they are born in this world, thinking the world is just like this.
Like a born slave viewing the world, just feeling they should be an oppressed existence.
But with the development of games and the development of brand-new worlds, the beauty and novelty of new worlds constantly stimulate them, opening the door to new worlds for them.
The birth of organizations like the Truth Protection Association is actually related to the social stage of initially invading worlds.
Brand-new worlds are not just objects of invasion; those worlds also reversely output their world concepts.
Those who awakened planted different seeds of thought at that moment, spreading until now.
But they can no longer continue to develop.
Because the 12-person Supreme Council of Infinite Group Myriad Worlds Terminal headquarters also noticed this.
So games later had the distinction between "internal beta" and "public beta".
The Vanguard Players of the internal beta were all people of the Infinite Group who knew the truth but were still willing to work for them.
And the so-called end of the internal beta was the game launched after the Vanguard Players figured out the situation of this world and completely destroyed the value output components of this world.
So most free exploration, high-freedom open-world games, are mostly labeled with war, wasteland, doomsday, ruins, sinful cities, etc.
And this also cut off the nutrients for thought awakening, the sprout seeming to wither just like this.
But life will always find its own way to survive, so organizations like the Truth Protection Association continue to exist.
As for whether such organizations will deteriorate, actually, these have become irrelevant.
"The truth is covered, but they cannot suppress our voice! Forward!"
"They are afraid, they are retreating! But this cannot cover the shameless faces they reveal when oppressing! If only truth can dialogue with them equally, then we will pick up truth and fight them to the end!"
Inciting words echoed in the crowd.
The ignited anger assimilated everyone's thinking.
Even those swept along were thinking whether they were the lambs unaware of the truth allowing them to exploit.
The suppression of Order Keepers existed in name only.
Facing such a numerous populace, the weapons in their hands appeared pale and powerless.
They couldn't even use large-scale weapons for indiscriminate slaughter; their functions didn't grant them the power to do so.
This is not those uncontrollable chaotic areas, nor the Earth Rift Resettlement Area.
They are citizens living on the surface, in the city.
If these ordinary people were really divided into ranks, they would be the mainstay of the uppermost layer of society.
But even so, in the mouths of those in power, they are still "pariahs".
They are just the highest quality social labor force, the group of people whose killing would be felt as a pity.
And those inciting and planning this turmoil, on the surface, are naturally people from the Truth Protection Association.
It is foreseeable that if this turmoil, seizure of power, and independence succeed, then this place will quickly become the main base of the Truth Protection Association, and a large number of other association members will join later.
And it will incite more places to follow suit.
This is the situation the Infinite Group least wants to see.
They cannot allow such a situation to continue happening.
This world has long become turbulent and uneasy.
Previously, the chaotic lands were integrated and independent, then the Earth Rift Resettlement Area broke away from control, as if there are too many invisible big hands on this world pushing this world to fall apart.
Now... if another surface city declares independence, such an impact is absolutely unacceptable!
At this moment, the Infinite Group Myriad Worlds Terminal branch had long been anxious to seek help.
Although this world has no concept of an army, it has the World Vanguard Invasion Team.
They are not only a sharp knife for invading other worlds, but also the top violent institution in their own world.
It is the final means after Order Keepers cannot cope with urban riots!
But this means is rarely used, because their main function is actually deterrence.
Only now... they have reached the point where they have to be dispatched.
But their arrival also has a lag.
Under the guidance of people with intentions, the rioting crowd gradually overturned the order of the city.
The chaotic crowd became the best cover for people with intentions.
Members of the Truth Protection Association mingled in the crowd, ready for the final impact on the city's power center.
What they need to do is shut down the central system controlling the operation of the entire city, find the control rights of Myriad Worlds Terminal and the control rights of urban infrastructure.
At least on the surface, it should be like this.
And when they truly took action, the chaos of the situation far exceeded their expectations.
Everyone released the most essential evil in human nature, smashing, burning, robbing...
In the end, they were not a group of organized regular resistance groups; they were an urban riot guided by the Truth Protection Association.
And just as all this was about to be completed, the tallest building in this city was about to collapse in people's hearts, and the old order was about to collapse just like this... people of the Game Vanguard Team came from afar driving unified single-person aircraft.
That warning sound engraved in their instincts echoed in the sky, constantly touching everyone's nerves.
As if a thief suddenly heard the siren, that suppression originating from instinct made them suddenly realize what they were doing.
Order Keepers might consider their identities, but suppressing them... only requires firepower suppression!
So very quickly, they were reversely slaughtered and warned by those Vanguard Team people against the massive number gap!
They wouldn't care about personnel deaths.
Even if they knew clearly this was in their own world, long-term world invasions made them slaughter without pressure.
There would even be bloodthirsty people feeling this firepower wasn't enough.
Those weapons far beyond their imagination existed in reality long ago.
In their cognition, weapons in games were manufactured imitating reality, but the actual situation was... weapons in games and reality actually appeared simultaneously, at most just announced at different moments.
"These stupid guys are really easier to slaughter than those aboriginals!"
"Ceasefire! Stop killing! The crowd is starting to disperse. We only need to catch the mastermind of this incident! If you slaughter too ruthlessly, will you stay here to move bricks for us!"
The captain of the Vanguard Team reprimanded severely, stopping those red-eyed members.
As for the moving bricks in his mouth, it naturally referred to those game players completing the most basic tasks for them in the game.
Although even if this city was really slaughtered, it wouldn't affect their industry, they as the Vanguard Team serving those big shots, wanton slaughter would deduct their money.
"Tch."
Those few people stopped their hands indifferently, obviously still unsatisfied, but with this captain pressing, they also quickly forcibly restored rationality.
During this period, they met the high-level personnel of the Infinite Group Myriad Worlds Terminal branch.
Actually, they didn't want to care at all.
But eventually, they shifted their focus and emphatically protected these people.
Because although this was said to be a branch, there were still many people here related to big shots, some even related to their immediate superiors, so they had to execute orders.
Of course, this was also related to the "Emergency Mission" popping up on the mission panel in their vision.
That kind of authority to directly issue missions to them, such figures were existences they absolutely couldn't afford to provoke!
"Hehe... you are the mastermind of this riot, right?"
This captain lifted the figure on the ground like a dead dog, throwing it on the ground somewhat ventingly.
Then information from the Myriad Worlds Terminal character database emerged in his vision, which was precisely the identity information of this person before him.
"Oho, Vice President of the Truth Protection Association branch? Cannon fodder-like thing, a position replaced after one dies. Say, what are you risking your life for?"
"Hehe... Pfft! You will all die..."
This person sprayed a mouthful of bloody water on the other's pant leg, saying hideously, only the voice was somewhat indistinct, but the killing intent was full.
"Damn it! I'm going to kill..."
The person splashed with bloody water spoke angrily but was stopped abruptly.
"Stop!"
That captain spoke, "Hard bones, I like stubborn breeds. The Truth Protection Association wouldn't do such reckless things. Tell me, what exactly did you do?"
"Hehe... you think... I will tell... you?"
Just as this captain's patience was also exhausted, a new Emergency Mission popped up in their vision again!
After reading this mission, everyone in the squad frowned.
Because another core area of the city was also attacked.
It was the energy hub of the entire city!
That was the core energy main artery of a city, docking with the Void Crack Infinite Energy Perpetuum Mobile of the Myriad Worlds Terminal headquarters!
"Truly damn it, increasing mission volume temporarily for us!"
"Watch your words!"
The captain snorted coldly.
After all, when they executed missions, their every word and deed were recorded.
If they left a bad impression on those big shots, then later when they wanted to go on missions, they could only go on those dirty, tiring, and low-paying types!
After all, people with power really could do whatever they wanted!
And they couldn't resist either.
Even the so-called power was bestowed by those Game Architects.
"Leave a part of people to protect the mission target. The rest, we go directly to settle them!"
"Hehe great! This time I can finally kill to my heart's content, right!"
"You'd better restrain yourself a bit. Save this energy for the game."
Just as they simply assigned tasks and were about to leave, they were suddenly attacked!
Overwhelming firepower strafing instantly forced them to support shields to avoid the sharp edge temporarily.
"Damn it, those guys from the association actually dispatched Banned Accounts!"
Banned Accounts were the official term for those private accounts mastered by the association through loopholes.
And the character creation of these accounts was not in other worlds, but right in this world, so the harm degree was extremely great.
Plus because they would be banned after being locked onto, they were called Banned Accounts.
Such accounts couldn't be detected and prevented in advance.
Only when the other party actively exposed could they be targetedly banned.
This Banned Account also became the last trump card of those resisting forces.
But the other party also had ways to contend with the locking of Myriad Worlds Terminal.
Plus reaction time and processing time, a Banned Account would take nearly ten minutes at the fastest to complete banning.
And before banning, the character's firepower coverage completely couldn't be cut off from the root.
For the association, using one such account meant banning one; one could imagine its preciousness.
And wanting to add new ones required taking huge risks to contend with the Myriad Worlds Terminal self-check system.
One mistake would lead to being locked onto, and they could only start over.
More importantly, such Banned Accounts couldn't be born in batches!
That's why they were so shocked.
What exactly was the association doing?
What exactly was worth them doing this?
But no matter what, they couldn't leave to execute the Emergency Mission anymore, otherwise those stupid relatives left here could just wait for death.
Seeing fire support had arrived, that dying Vice President also closed his eyes, sleeping here forever.
At least his mission... was considered completed, right?
At this moment, the Vanguard Team also hurriedly fed back the situation, applied for the banning process, and transferred the Emergency Mission in passing, letting a new Vanguard Team execute it.
Don't look at the theoretical existence limit of Banned Accounts being only ten minutes, but that was also theoretical.
Because of various manual retrieval and operation problems, plus unprepared emergencies, dragging for half an hour might not be the end.
And they still had to protect the mission target, so they simply couldn't let go.
Even without restrictions, they needed to actively suppress firepower.
Otherwise, buildings damaged beyond the reimbursement limit would also lower the mission score, and then deduct their mission rewards!
And at this moment, far away at the "Energy Transfer Station", another plan planned for a long time was also gradually unfolding.
They completed the occupation at the fastest speed.
Even if there was a resident Vanguard Team here, these positions of idling away one's life simply couldn't be mentioned in the same breath as the Vanguard Team fighting on the front line for a long time.
After occupying here, they found the energy core.
Here, they needed to draw a summoning ritual rune.
Only here was there enough energy to drive this rune ritual.
They were all ordinary people.
The only energy they could access, and large facilities utilizing energy, was only here.
This was their big gamble!
Betting they could... overthrow this rotten old world!
