Vol 2 Chapter 42: corporate ruse

The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: [New]https://Fastest update! No ads!

When Russell heard this, he subconsciously looked out the window.

Smoke and dust dispersed in the starless night sky, and the gray-white moonlight was as dim as dust.

It was only then that Russell noticed that the gray full moon was actually as large as a disc at this moment.

"...It turns out that today is the full moon."

Russell murmured.

The color of the moon is like the gray and white reflected in the camera when using the black and white filter of the mobile phone to shoot the moon. The neon light reflected in the splendid city that never sleeps on the ground makes the brilliance of the full moon dim and transparent to the point of disappearing.

He just remembered... It's been a long, long time, and he hasn't looked up at the moon.

There is no custom of admiring the moon in this world. After all, this off-white, dim to almost transparent moon is indeed nothing to look at.

In other words, people in this world have never developed the habit of raising their heads and looking at the gray dome.

At this moment, the smoke is still floating outside the window. Through the dim moonlight, you can still barely see the visible but gradually dissipated gunpowder smoke, and the fine textures that are gradually dispersed in the air.

Although still separated by the extremely well-sealed windows, Russell seemed to smell the smell of gunpowder smoke in the air.

"The dragon's ban...is it okay to disobey it?"

Russell didn't look back, but just stared at the smoke that hadn't dissipated: "It's the order of the 'dragon' to ask for the destruction of weapons and the prohibition of killing people with hot weapons."

"To be precise," No. 44 said in a cold voice, "the real restriction of the dragon is actually 'no one can use mass-produced thermal weapons to initiate or participate in any scale of killing of the same family'. In this prohibition, each The board of directors of the Sky Island Headquarters is responsible for the public and only has supervisory responsibilities. Because of this, the specific implementation of the board of directors of each sky island is slightly different. This can be carried out according to the management ideas of each sky island. degree of adjustment.

"Just like in Chongguang Island, Taoyuan Island and Happy Island, the sentence of deportation can be imposed unconditionally only if private individuals are found to hold thermal weapons, but the company can also choose to ignore it; in Sun Island, Holy Blood Island and Tongshen Island, civilians are allowed to hold There are dangerous weapons, and there are even shops that legally sell weapons. It’s just that while holding a weapon, it is equivalent to voluntarily giving up the right to be protected. When a dangerous weapon of the level of taking another's life is killed and dies in a battle, the killer is considered innocent unless he possesses a weapon of the same level.

"—This is the 'consensus on self-defense rights of the weak' implemented in our three islands. That is, holding a dangerous weapon is still not considered a crime, but holding a weapon is equivalent to giving up the personal rights protected by the consensus. Anyone can kill it.

"If you don't understand, you can also understand it this way: All civilians on our empty island are equally protected by the 'consensus', and the consensus is the common will of all civilians on the empty island. The power to protect every citizen comes from It serves the wishes of all the people, and in turn serves all individuals. If you don’t trust the protection of the consensus, and choose to use your own strength and violence to protect yourself, it is tantamount to breaking away from this consensus. Then the consensus is lost The need to continue to protect this individual and remove him from the herd."

Russell turned around and found that even though he didn't look at No. 44, she was still bowing deeply to him.

She maintained a bowing posture, and her voice was flat and clear: "The civilian armed security drone developed by the hotel can only connect to the hotel's wireless network, so it can only move around the hotel; The predictive security defense equipment held is not detachable because it is forged in one piece; the behavior logic of the drone is completely controlled by the program set in advance by the hotel, and there is no possibility of being used by any individual.

"Because of this, it can be regarded as a security device by the dragon. Because it is essentially just a slightly smarter grid fence. Considering the precious identity of the passengers here, it is understandable to apply more aggressive security strategies. "

…smart grids?

The kind of smart grid that uses radios and webcams to monitor a fifteen-kilometer perimeter, and uses smart cannons and howitzers to blast enemies to pieces when they spot them?

Even Russell was stunned for a moment when he heard these somewhat outrageous remarks. Not to mention Ringo next to him.

Although Ringo also belongs to the "three empty islands where guns are allowed", she absolutely does not realize what the truth revealed by No. 44 means—

Number 44's attitude towards "guests" is really too honest.

She has nothing to hide from the secret. And from these words, a lot of information can actually be disassembled.

Leaving aside the attitude of the giant dragon... the reason why some of these three islands allow people to carry guns is because the Holy Blood Island, Sun Island, and Tongshen Island have a stronger killing intent towards the people.

No wonder this is not like Happy Island, where a large number of uncoded people have accumulated and are active in the lower city.

It is precisely because of the prohibition of possession of hot weapons, but not completely blocked, that once people's pressure reaches a certain level, they will immediately vent it.

—And as long as they choose to "vent", they will be shot dead. So it is not easy to form groups and form forces...

Simply put, it is precisely because individuals have the power to act that they will not choose to act in a group way. After all, once a group is formed, it must abide by the discipline within the organization, and there will inevitably be a power class within the organization, and it will also form cliques. Many things will become less pure...

Even for those who play games, many of them don't want to join any guild—it's not necessarily because the players are socially afraid, but more because they find it troublesome. Because they can predict that once they join the guild, they will probably quarrel or argue in the end. Instead of getting tired, it's better not to get in touch at the beginning.

And if this game can be played well by one person without losing any gaming experience; on the contrary, adding a guild will slow down your efficiency, and how many people will still choose to form or join a guild?

Sure, but not too many.

— This is the decision of Tongshen Island.

They allow ordinary people to buy guns normally, which means that everyone has the ability to act independently.

Whether it is shooting an enemy, or wanting to get rid of one's boss or rival in love... as long as you think about it, you can do it.

Even if you are crazy and want to retaliate against the society, you can attack passers-by indiscriminately on the street, or attack elementary schools.

At the same time, the way for the company to get rid of a person has become much easier.

Just figure out how to sell or give someone a gun ~www.wuxiahere.com~ and justify killing them for granted...

And when some smart people finally show up and want to destroy those powerful enemies that are difficult for them to reach-such as the head office, or the Tartarus Hotel, there is no one who can cooperate.

Because they all have clearer "enemies" and ideas and methods to deal with them.

And after killing the enemy, the hatred and resentment accumulated in their hearts were relieved a lot.

The so-called vigorous efforts, then decline and exhaustion. The little courage left may not make them choose to continue to fight against the head office... After all, people are always short-sighted. The enemies close at hand have been dealt with, and if the Executive Department does not catch them, they hope that they can return to their original comfortable life.

——At that time, how many people will be able to stand up and declare the head office as an enemy?
