Chapter 37 Armor and Sword(1/2)
The riots continued to spread, and more and more people from the underground world participated.
And it is spreading to other areas, like a prairie fire.
On the roof, under the dim light, Mia was bandaging Xu Mo's wounds. There was a knife mark on Xu Mo's chest, and blood dyed his clothes red. Bai Wei was also helping to clean it with potion.
Mia's tears continued to fall while she was bandaging. She knew a lot of things and had some doubts, but she didn't ask any more questions.
"Does it hurt?" Mia asked crying.
"It's a small wound, it's okay." Xu Mo smiled and shook his head. The armor protected him, and the wound was not deep, so it didn't have much impact.
He was thinking that a cobra would suddenly come here. Was it Qin Zhong who did it?
Only Qin Zhong may know that he is here.
It seems that he has become Qin Zhong's target for cleaning up.
"boom……"
"Bang, bang, bang!" Rapid gunshots came from the distant streets, followed by screams and the sounds of panicked escapes.
The suppression team from the city-state arrived and headed this way. Most of them were members of the law enforcement team mobilized.
Some of them were wearing black and white armor, covering their whole bodies, holding thick white guns in their hands. Blue energy light was emitted from the guns, and every time they shot, their bodies were pierced.
They pointed their guns at the rioting crowd, and blood soon stained the streets red, leaving corpses on the ground.
The gathered people were dispersed, and some angry people continued to rush forward, but they only left one more body on the ground.
When Mia heard the noise, she stood on the top of the building and took a look from a distance. Looking at the Shura Hell in the distance, she felt extremely sad in her heart.
"Mia, come back." Master Batu pulled her back from the side, and Mia curled up on the ground.
"Is this how they deal with it?" Mia was a little desperate.
They used children for genetic experiments, and now they are pointing their guns at the people of the underground world.
"Are those people really the law enforcement team?" Mia seemed to be talking to herself, her eyes were red.
Master Batu was speechless.
Everything that happened today had a too strong impact on Mia. Although she knew that the world was cruel, she still never thought that it would be like hell.
Do the 'big shots' really treat them as human beings?
"Bang, bang..." There were also people shooting at the law enforcement team in the alley and in the houses on both sides.
Obviously, the resistance did not stop because of the suppression.
The gunfire got closer and closer, and the suppressive team came here, and then began to disperse.
Xu Mo sensed everything below. The underground world was more like a huge prison than a world, where the people in the underground world were imprisoned and tightly controlled.
No wonder they want to restrict technology.
"Do you still think you can change anything?" Master Batu asked Xu Mo.
Can anything be changed?
Xu Mo is asking himself.
Uncle Fang and Seth paid the price with their lives for this. They all had firm beliefs and dreamed of doing something for the world, and finally paid with their lives.
But, can anything really be changed?
Absolute force seems to be meaningless.
"A passionate person is just a tool in the hands of others, stupid." Master Batu spoke calmly, as if he had seen through the world.
Xu Mo listened quietly, and what Master Batu said did make sense.
Stupid?
Many of them come from the bottom of the underground world. They have experienced the injustice of the world and seen the darkness. They want to resist the world and make the world cleaner, although in the end they were taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives.
But is this stupidity?
No resistance, default to slavery, and be treated as a slave.
Seeing the children in those containers, he couldn't imagine what would happen to Yao'er if he was taken away.
What if it’s Miss Mia?
Back then, the children in the church were also captured for genetic experiments, right?
Parents who have lost their children will be so sad when they know the truth.
I'm afraid it wouldn't be that uncomfortable to kill them, right?
They are all living people, young lives.
How can I numb myself to accept all this?
Xu Mo looked at Batu and asked softly: "Master Batu was young, right? Did he have any passion at that time?"
Master Batu glanced at Xu Mo.
Hot-blooded?
I have almost forgotten that feeling.
"Master Batu is right. They can't change anything. They will eventually enter the dust of history. There may not be any ripples and no one will remember them." Xu Mo looked at the many corpses on the ground and said, "But
, they existed.”
If everyone is numb, allowed to be enslaved, and has no resistance, there will be no difference between them and animals.
So, what is the meaning of living?
Master Batu looked at Xu Mo, smiled and shook his head.
What this guy said makes sense.
But, so what?
"The large force to suppress the riot should arrive tomorrow. It may be more intense. I'm afraid this area is not safe. Let's leave early tomorrow morning." Mr. Batu said to Xu Mo.
"Are you just going to leave like this?" Xu Mo was a little reluctant.
What will happen to Secretary Jin, Qin Zhong, Ye Qingdie and the others?
"Master Batu, wait for me for a moment." Xu Mo turned around and went downstairs. Not long after, he came back with a package and opened it. There was a thick stack of federal coins inside, which Ye Qingdie gave him.
"I heard that enough federal coins can lead to the world above, is it true?" Xu Mo asked Master Batu.
"False." Master Batu shook his head: "Unless you are a person from the world above, you can't get out."
"So, this is also a conspiracy." Xu Mo seemed to be used to it.
"Master Batu, if you want to move, you need federal coins. You can bring these with you." Xu Mo said to Master Batu.
Batu narrowed his eyes and stared at Xu Mo.
"Xu Mo..." Mia also walked over and looked at Xu Mo, what did he mean?
"Yao'er should be safe with Master Batu." Xu Mo said with a smile. Master Batu is much stronger than him.
"Brother, I don't want..." The obedient Yao'er on the side seemed to understand, crying and threw herself at Xu Mo.
Xu Mo hugged her, and Yao'er cried: "I don't want to leave my brother, I want to be with him all the time."
Xu Mo's eyes were a little moist. After spending these days together, he also had feelings for Yao'er.
"Be good, Yao'er. Brother will go find Yao'er." Xu Mo kissed Yao'er gently on his forehead.
"Xu Mo, I don't allow you to stay." Mia also cried and said.
"Don't worry, Miss Mia, I'm very afraid of death." Xu Mo said with a smile to Mia.
As a person who has died once, he cherishes his life and will not die like Uncle Fang.
"What do you want to do?" Master Batu asked Xu Mo.
"I don't know what I can do, at least I want to see the ending." Xu Mo responded: "I will be careful where Master Batu moves to. I will go find you when this is over."
"Go to the main city." Master Batu responded: "Wait for me."
With that said, he also went downstairs.
Not long after, Mr. Batu brought up a metal box. Xu Mo had seen it, but his senses couldn't penetrate it. He didn't know what was in it.
The box had a code, Master Batu opened it, and then pushed the box towards Xu Mo.
Xu Mo glanced at Master Batu, then opened the metal box, his heart trembling slightly.
Battle armor!
Black armor, suit.
There are also war knives, dark war knives, like the sword of death.
"Remember that drunkard bastard who actually said that Mia is not my biological child?" Batu cursed rudely: "I was young too, and I was more handsome than you when I was young."
Xu Mo was stunned and looked up at Master Batu.
