The experienced Shen Chenglie and the other elite soldiers of the adopted children faction could hear the wind whistling, and their expressions changed drastically. They jumped down from their vehicles and found cover to hide.
However, Shen Yuhe, Shen Yufeng, and the other Deity Realm blood descendants who lived in luxury reacted slightly slower.
Their vehicles were attacked by large-caliber anti-material sniper rifles from different angles.
Several bullets even penetrated the crystal engine and successfully triggered the chain reaction of the crystal fuel.
While the vehicles turned into dazzling fireballs and the shockwave tore through the bulletproof glass and the external armor, blood also burst out from the bodies of the members of the Shen family who were caught off guard in the carriage.
When the skull of one of the Shen family members was finally opened by an armor-piercing bullet as thick as a baby’s arm, and his white brain matter was instantly burned into charcoal, the situation finally turned into irreparable chaos.
The panicking blood descendants faction screamed and shot out all the ammunition they could fire at the places where they thought the sniper might be hiding.
Naturally, they did not hit even one sniper from the Blood Alliance.
However, many bullets grazed Shen Yuanbiao’s subordinates, the wanted criminals who had long become frightened. They flew over and shot out shocking holes in the surrounding buildings. They also caused the crushed stones and iron chips to fall on their heads.
If Shen Yuanbiao still had the ability to speak and act, even if he was on his last breath, he would have shouted at the top of his lungs and told his subordinates, “This is a conspiracy. Do not engage with the enemy!”
Unfortunately, it was his bodyguard who was giving the orders in Shen Yuanbiao’s place.
“Break out of the encirclement! Break out of the encirclement at all costs!”
His bodyguard spread out his fingers and pressed them on Shen Yuanbiao’s face. At the same time, he roared in the tactical communication channel, “The boss is in critical condition. We have to move to a safe place as soon as possible. We will kill whoever dares to block our way!”
From that moment on, the sounds of gunfire, explosions, sabers, and swords tearing through the air, as well as the roars of the tides of spirit energy colliding with each other, were beyond control and could not be quelled for a long time.
The extremely chaotic tide that originated from the warehouse in the south of the city seemed to have broken through the limitation of time and space and swept over the entire Dragon City in an instant.
Even Meng Chao, who was lurking in the downtown area and watching Lu Siya, could clearly smell the increasingly intense smell of gunpowder. He was almost turning into a demon that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.
The most obvious signal was that more and more armed personnel belonging to the nine mega corporations were on the streets.
Since dawn, a large number of heavy-duty vehicles with the symbols of the nine mega corporations had rumbled onto the streets.
Those who jumped out of the carriages were also corporate warriors who were wearing helmets and armor, masks, and breathing apparatus, not exposing half an inch of their skin. Their expressions could not be seen.
Judging from their appearance as if they were facing a great enemy, as well as the bullet chains that were fully wrapped around their shoulders and waists, these corporate warriors were all ready for actual combat.
During the Monster War, the streets and alleys of Dragon City and even thousands of households had become trenches and bunkers for the soldiers to fight to the death at any time.
Even swaddled children could fall asleep sweetly because they were used to listening to the sound of the tracks crushing the bones of the monsters.
However, with their great victory in the Monster War, the ordinary citizens of Dragon City had not seen such a solemn and tense scene for a whole year.
Moreover, the entire city had been on alert in the past to fight the monsters to death.
At present, Dragon City did not face any external threats. What did these elite warriors from the nine mega corporations and superhumans in power armor want?
Soon, the entire Dragon City was awakened.
Whether it was on the streets, alleys, or social media, the citizens were all talking about it.
Some social media accounts on behalf of the nine mega corporations indicated that although the monster mastermind had been destroyed, the monster civilization had not completely collapsed. Instead, they took advantage of the slack of the humans cheering for victory to sneak into Dragon City and parasitize the human body, they were trying to create a greater scale of destruction from within Dragon City.
The nine mega corporations had already grasped the evidence and were about to launch a large-scale purification operation. They would seize the monsters that were parasitizing the human body, as well as the puppets that were under their control, to ensure the safety of the majority of the citizens.
Of course, these monsters and puppets would definitely not sit still and wait for death. Once they realized that they had been exposed, they would definitely do everything they could to struggle on the brink of death.
Therefore, social media accounts represented the nine mega corporations’ suggestions. During this critical period, the citizens were to obediently stay at home. If it was not necessary, they should not gather on the streets or in public places. They were afraid that the monsters that could invade the human body like bacteria and viruses would seize the opportunity and harm their own lives.
However, these social media accounts were quickly refuted.
The opponents claimed that there was no “monster virus” or “monster remnants.” All of this was an excuse for the nine mega corporations to eliminate their opponents and monopolize Dragon City.
The nine mega corporations just wanted to use such means to intimidate thousands of ordinary citizens and use force to block the passage of the Mandatory Training Act for School-aged Children.
As for why the nine mega corporations did not want to see the act, which would greatly benefit Dragon City’s future, passed, it was because they did not want to foot the bill.
Of course, the nine mega corporations and nine noble cultivation families behind them had plenty of money.
But they would rather spend all their money on their children’s and lavish living.
They did not want to use it on the children of ordinary citizens for them to enjoy the equal right to cultivate and awaken extraordinary powers.
Not to mention, the nine mega corporations wanted to wage a war on their own now, monopolizing the interests of the middle and lower reaches of the Raging Tiger River. In that fertile land that was thousands of times wider than the monster basin, they wanted to build independent kingdoms that were larger than Dragon City and would forever belong to the nine great cultivation families.
Therefore, they were even less willing to fork out precious war funds to support the cultivation and awakening of the ordinary citizens’ children.
The two theories were at odds.
The latter quickly gained the upper hand.
There was no other way. The nine mega corporations had recently been exposed in so many scandals.
After seeing how the children of the noble families were so free and easy, how they squandered, how they enjoyed the life that ordinary citizens could not even dream of in their splendid private clubhouse… no, in their private palace…
Even the most naive ordinary citizens found it hard to believe that the superhumans from the nine great cultivation families would completely stand on their side and fight for their interests and the future of Dragon City.
