It didn't take long for the gunshots inside the building to stop completely. After a while, Chen Mo, who had been standing silently in the air, finally moved.
I saw him slowly lowering his height to the sixth floor, identifying one of the rooms, and quietly flying in through a broken window.
All the emotional criminals in the building have been eliminated. The next step is to search the entire building to find the prohibited items hidden by them and destroy them all.
All the soldiers dispersed inside the building and began a comprehensive search. However, there were only more than thirty of them originally, and several more were sacrificed in the exchange of fire with the enemy. They were scattered throughout the ten-story building, and there were only two or three people on the first floor.
.
A tall soldier had just searched a room and found nothing, so he went out and turned into another room next to it.
All the enemies had been eliminated by them, and the places where they could hide people had been searched as they advanced, and some of the hiding ones were killed, so he was not worried that there were still enemies and just pushed away.
The door entered the room.
After he entered, the door he pushed open slowly closed with a harsh creaking sound.
…
Half an hour later, the entire building was searched, and the hidden prohibited items were found and burned to ashes.
All the emotional prisoners were eliminated, and all the contraband was burned and destroyed. Now that the task was completed, the two priests took the lead to leave in the car. The remaining soldiers finished handling the bodies, quickly boarded the armored vehicle, and turned around to where they came from.
direction.
But no one knew that the tall figure sitting in one of the armored vehicles had now changed into someone else!
…
In fact, although these people who were exterminated by the army and priests were considered emotional criminals, they were not members of the resistance organization.
These groups of forces hiding outside the city, possessing a large number of weapons, as well as paintings, books, records and other contraband, are actually a group of desperadoes who make money by selling contraband!
They collect these prohibited items from the ruins of Nisus and sell them to the emotional prisoners in the city at high prices.
Although the church implemented high-pressure rule in the city and classified emotions as a crime, there were still many people who secretly stopped using "Posian" and secretly had emotions.
But under the purge of the church, everything in the city was like a routine, cold, monotonous, boring, without any entertainment activities, no music, books, movies, games, no art, no emotion, no beauty, no love.
After being injected with "Bossian", people without emotions are fine, but those with emotions feel extremely depressed in this environment.
In this case, although these people who have feelings usually pretend to be as cold and numb as others, after returning home, their hearts are extremely empty. They are eager to get these things that were very common in the past but are now severely punished.
Forbidden things.
As the saying goes, the less you can get, the more you want.
A book, a photo, or a small decoration are all priceless treasures to them. They can read them over and over again. These things can make them feel beautiful, feel their heartbeat, feel their joy, anger, sorrow, and joy.
They are still alive!
They were willing to take the risk of being burned to death if they were discovered to possess these things, but the city of Libya had already been cleaned up by the church, and even if someone had some hidden in their home, they would never dare to tell anyone.
Even if they were willing to pay a high price, no one would dare to sell to them.
But if there is demand, there will naturally be supply, but these people are not in the city.
Speaking of which, we have to talk about the situation in Nises District.
The core of Libya is the city within the giant wall. Everything inside is firmly controlled by the church. All residents in the city are citizens of Libya. They must receive "Bosian" regularly, inject it on time, and accept the church's instructions.
A high-pressure dictatorship, but at the same time, as long as they abide by the laws of the church, honestly abandon their emotions, and become a walking zombie, they can live safely in the city without worrying about survival issues.
It's different outside the city.
The vast city ruins outside the giant wall are called Niss, an abandoned place in Libya. Although it is also under their rule, it is more like an abandoned slum, except that the distance around the city wall is closer
There are patrol teams patrolling a few areas, but no one cares about the areas further away.
In fact, the entire area of Nisus is very astonishing. This city, which suffered huge damage during the war and was reduced to ruins, was originally a very developed giant modern city before the war, and its total area was larger than the real capital city.
Many of them used to be densely populated with high-rise buildings, factories, and residential buildings.
Although most of them were destroyed during the war, there are still many relatively intact buildings that have survived by chance. They are not completely in ruins. Just like the factory where Chen Mo first lived and the building where the emotional prisoners were hiding just now, although they are dilapidated, they are still intact.
It's quite complete.
Right in the middle of this huge urban ruins, the core urban area of today's Libya, protected by a huge wall, actually only occupies a very small area of the entire ruins, even if
It is much smaller than an area in the 12th District of Nisus. With the current manpower, material resources, and limited resources at its disposal, Libya has no ability or need to control and manage the entire Nissus.
and construction.
Therefore, at the beginning of the founding of the country, after searching for various resources, equipment and materials throughout Nisus, the church abandoned this huge ruins together with the survivors living on it.
Yes, Nisus is not completely silent. In this huge ruins of the city, there are also some post-war survivors living scatteredly. However, they are not considered citizens of Libya, but just some abandoned ones.
of poor people.
Their number is not very large, and they are even more difficult to encounter in such a vast area.
Some of them are alone, some in groups, or with their families, looking for a hidden place in the ruins, relying on planting, traps, hunting and searching the ruins to survive hard and freely.
In order to avoid Libyan patrols and the troops that enter Nisus from time to time to perform tasks, they usually live far away from the walls, even on the outermost periphery of the ruins of the city.
The abandoned factory where Chen Mo was staying at that time was only a dozen kilometers away from the city wall and was within the patrol range of the patrol team, so there was no one around.
