Overturned Tower

Russell muttered in a low voice, his tense body slowly relaxing.

The symphony had ended for a while, but his ears seemed to be haunted by the brilliant and bright triumphant song.

--Buzzing.

I really did not choose the wrong song.

The Symphony of Destiny... that is, the Fifth Symphony in C minor created by Beethoven, which was once rated as a magnificent masterpiece "as long as there is music in this world, it will be passed down from generation to generation".

Basically, it can also be regarded as a top-level "hole card" in any Wenchaoliu novel that engages in cultural exchanges with other worlds.It can be said that even if it is taken out in the "last scene", there will be no violation of the king bomb.

...But it is a pity and irony that it is really lost in this era.

This world is undoubtedly the "future" of a certain earth.

Theoretically speaking, it is indeed possible to find the score of "Symphony of Destiny" through archaeology.

However, it was not given to Russell by Thrall.

It was written by Russell himself.

The reason why Russell named him "Sarl" was because Thrall had already sacrificed himself and was unable to refute his lies; secondly, it was to commemorate Thrall as the last gift to this true "hero".

No one will remember that it was "Thal" who saved these millions of people.

But rather than saying that Thrall had the idea of ​​"sacrificing himself" and "giving up his life", he blossomed into brilliance...

Rather... it was a relief to finally be able to close my eyes.

I have been waiting for a long, long time... Maybe I was afraid at first, but then I was looking forward to it.But in the end it has become numb.

It was a rare relief that the fateful "final moment" had finally arrived.

After waiting for more than 1000 years and guarding for more than 1000 years, the elves have also reached their limit.

That is to say, in recent years, there have gradually begun to appear name-bearing elves who abandon their "fate"... Kamaltha who wants to directly fulfill his own destiny and refuses to "wait for the time his own destiny needs in the future"; Tovatus, who is almost broken and broken, is not afraid of everyone; Amirus, whose destiny is "persistent" but has begun to be flexible; Nitibas, who pursues the fate of "stars" that he can never see in his life; Thrall, who was ready to take over after seeing the birth of the "sage"...

Even though they gained a long life span, more than 1000 years have passed... those first-generation elves have almost all begun to age.

Famous elves like "Tokifat" and "Towatus" have been passed down to the second generation.

And their spirits have reached their limit.

According to Russell's current thinking, the plan determined by the ancients at the beginning...maybe it was wrong from the beginning.

They chose 84 people as the forerunners and guardians of human beings, as the hope for the rebirth of civilization; and preserved the best human beings as specimens of civilization—but they never thought about the nature of these elves, their The spiritual core is only a mortal after all.

It is a mortal who has life and death, joy and sorrow.

They couldn't even bear the 1000 years of living on this planet... How could they bear the endless, endless darkness and loneliness when the spaceship was sailing?

From this perspective, the elves and dragons did not leave this planet immediately, and I am afraid that they are not just indecisive, trying to find the answer to the problem before they have to abandon this planet.

Rather, they actually understand in their hearts...

The "final plan" that the ancients made for them may not be of much use.

They themselves are the executors of the plan - they cannot fool their own reason.

And this is why Russell let these "synthetics" play the symphony of fate.

All the elves are bound by the shackles of "fate" and become slaves of "future".

Everything they do seems to be for the "future".But every choice they make proves that they are still greedy for the possibility of "now".

Maybe it is because people live for a long time, they will become cautious;

Or it may be that after the soul is frozen, it loses the vigor that burst out when it ignited the soul and gave up everything.

This song is played for those people... so that they can have the courage to stand up against the company and against the elves.

At the same time, it is also played for elves, for those famous elves who have survived from the previous era.

It is also to enable them to have the courage to resist the dragon, fight against fate, and break the sky.

—Abandon the last extravagant hope.

— Give up this self-deceiving dream.

as well as……

"—Break the shackles."

Russell murmured softly.

It, too, is a composition for Russell himself.

The pure white flame burning at the bottom of his pupils seemed to become more violent in an instant.

The thing that constrains him in the depths of his soul and keeps him just a mortal... is also the "Leviathan Wall" that protects them from sinking into the subconscious depths of the group——

At this moment, it is finally fully opened.

Chapter 60 mirror

Brush teeth, emperor, barber, ultramarine.

The four of them completely reversed and completely controlled the public opinion on Happy Island in just three days.

The "Fuji Society" is finally no longer an underground organization, and the "mercenaries" who used to live in the gutter have become "operators" who can live a decent life.On the happy island where there is no law and the average moral level is absurdly low, the "internal rules" of the Fuji Society have become a new standard higher than "morality"——

If you want to receive help from the Aid Society, it is not enough just because it is not illegal.You have to be a "good guy".

And this "good guy" standard is not decided by the company, nor by public opinion... but by the Fuji Society.

No one can blame them - because the relief society has no obligation to provide help to everyone, it's all business.

Their "behavior of aid" itself is just selling a service with a very high cost performance at a very low price.No one can expect that they must sell their goods to anyone in unlimited quantities... As a service industry, they also have the right to refuse to provide services to customers.

And it's not discrimination.

Because they clearly understand in black and white, under what conditions they will reject the customer's request.That is to say, you don't have to accept the terms of the Aid Society at all, and you won't be punished in any way-just don't call if something happens in the future.

The "Fuji Society" has only officially existed for one day, and it has improved the overall atmosphere of Happy Island almost inconceivably.

This may sound like a fairy tale, but it is true.

The principle is also very simple.

Because the predecessor of the "Fuji Society" was the "family" of the godfather, and it was also the top manager of the "mercenary complex".

A long time ago, uncoded mercenaries had to pick up jobs from middlemen to find work.

One-third of the commission is regarded as the reincarnation of the merciful sage, one-half of the commission is considered fair and objective, and two-thirds of the commission belongs to the industry tradition, and if you don't accept it, you will leave.

Those less than one-third of the commission will make the mercenary wonder if the middleman wants to kill himself and swallow his money one day.

Moreover, "betrayal" from the intermediary means that the deposit is cleared.The mercenaries who don't have chips, so they can't use currency directly, are raised by these middlemen like dogs.

Until later, under the organization of the godfather, all mercenaries united for the first time to form a mercenary platform and trade union.From this moment on, the mercenaries can enjoy the task commission of less than 20%, and they don't need to worry about being deliberately murdered by the middleman.

Today the platform has not been disbanded, it has just gone silent.

On the first day when the existence of "Fujishe" was made public, there were not many mercenaries who joined Fujisha as company cadres.These are carefully selected malt alcohols, trustworthy, stable and reliable ones.

The other mercenaries had already accepted the secret orders of the "elders" in the family... When the time came, they immediately announced the cessation of mercenary activities.

Of course, Russell wouldn't let them live a hard life... Under the leadership of malt wine and strangulation, they didn't have to do any work to get paid.The monthly income is [-]% to [-]% of the normal performance of tasks on weekdays, and all they have to do is play.

The mercenaries are of course happy to give themselves a carefree long vacation.

Not to mention, this is their only "boss" who forced them, or even pressed their heads, to force them to take this three-month paid vacation, and promised to recruit them first They go to the relief society.

If you don't work for three months, can you still get money?Can decent jobs be prioritized afterwards?

——Is there such a good thing?

Of course, no mercenary would choose to refuse.At this time, the mercenaries who still refused to take a vacation would all be strangled, secretly marked and monitored.

Russell's plan, of course, is not just for these mercenaries to rest and maintain their health...

Instead, the entire Happy Island suddenly realized one thing——

That is... the employment market of "helping others" was monopolized by the relief society without warning.

In the past, the gun battles, destruction, theft, protection, invasion, assassination and other mercenary actions that would inevitably occur in various areas at night on Happy Island died down in an instant.

So, who will be the most anxious at this time?

Of course, those big mercenary customers who are used to "doing business without seriousness" will be anxious at first.

They will naturally have an illusion - since neither side can hire a professional mercenary team now, is it possible to hire a few mercenaries at a premium and directly penetrate the opponent?

With a lot of money, there are always warriors who will take risks and ignore the godfather's warning... Not to mention, after exposing the fact that "the godfather was once Xiao Liuli", although the godfather's recognition in the upper city has been greatly increased, it has also made the godfather Some thorns who were not very willing to give in were even more dissatisfied.

If they are dispatched at this time, doesn't that mean more money and less work?

These mercenaries basically didn't go to school.

Those who have received education basically understand what the godfather is going to do... Only those purebloods who were born in the lower city without a code are secretly happy that they have got a big advantage.

But they didn't expect that they would be targeted by strangulation.

Today's strangling is already the "Minister of Human Resources Department and Director of Personnel Department" of the Fuji Society.But he is obviously different from a normal personnel director... mainly in that he is not responsible for expelling employees from the company, but is responsible for expelling specific targets from the world.

Those smart mercenaries bumped into the iron plate without warning.

After the barber and Ultramarine announced the establishment of the "Fujishe" company, they specially recruited some employees with chips to serve as "night security".

That night, after these security guards who were highly prosthetic and wearing body armor were shot under the camera, the Fuji Society immediately obtained unlimited self-defense rights-without the need for these security guards to take action, a batch of equipment Sophisticated elite mercenaries wearing security uniforms immediately rushed out of the target point in a single file, easily killing or arresting those stunned thorns.

None of the Happy Island companies suffered losses the next morning.

The same goes for the third day.

When people realize what the existence of the Fuji Society means... and the unconditional, rootless, and illogical hostility towards the "uncoded" group also disappeared a lot.

After all, in the final analysis, Happy Island's hostility and hatred towards those without codes was originally cultivated manually by the company.It's like the parents of Paradise Birds... Decades ago, they were just ordinary residents who chose to live in the lower city.The reason why this kind of hatred exists is that the company wants the public to think that their misfortune is due to the existence of these uncoded people.

But now, as this cognition is effectively erased by Ultramarine—although it cannot be said that people wake up immediately, the people who were originally muddled between black and white immediately began to move to both sides.Their true position began to become clear.

The symphony of fate played by a synthetic man is like the sound of a bell waking people up from their dreams.

The law and order at night improved rapidly, and those without codes no longer went out to make trouble.Synthesizers form different combinations, and release a large number of high-quality works of art at an extremely fast update speed... This time it is no longer Russell's copy, but a truly excellent work created by themselves.

The noisy and chaotic Happy Island seems to become clean and quiet in an instant.

Just like the chaotic and bustling neighborhood in the evening, it became quiet in the early morning.

Some things that would make people obsessed and obsessed in the past suddenly lost their attraction for no reason... Those things that I used to be immersed in suddenly seemed childish and boring in an instant.

It was as if overnight, everyone had grown up together.They seem to be able to understand other people's hearts more easily, and the contradictions caused by misunderstanding are easily eliminated.

...It seems to be an illusion, but it doesn't seem to be.

Their minds got a strange tranquility and contentment, and their restless minds were gradually smoothed out by an invisible, repeatedly reverberating wave.

Their eyes become clear and bright.It's like having a cold compress.

They can no longer remember their dreams, and their sleep quality has suddenly improved inexplicably since the day "Symphony of Destiny" was released.

For those who wear glasses, vision begins to improve without warning.

The picture that people see in the mirror becomes clear, and everyone will subconsciously want to wipe the mirror surface stained by fog and dirt.

and most importantly...

At night, the moon seems to be several times brighter than usual.Or maybe the brightness of the moon has not changed, what has changed is only the attention paid to the "moon" in people's field of vision.

In the beginning, this situation was only in the Tianen District... Then the changed range quickly spread, and it only took one day to spread to the entire Happy Island.

It was as if people were favored by the "mirror".

Chapter 61 Diving into the Group Subconscious

Two days later, the "Virtual Little Glass" launched by Tianen Daily was officially launched.

After sampling "Xiao Liuli" in every detail, it is a perfect personality imitation software manufactured with AI technology purchased from Sogo Island with a lot of money.Tianen Daily decided to use it to broadcast some news and resume online concerts—for most people, they would not have gone to the concert anyway.

That being the case, it makes no difference whether Xiao Liuli is alive or dead.It would be better to say that it is better to die... because they can let "her" all the songs that Xiao Liuli didn't want to sing and the business she didn't want to carry out.

They thought so.

But the facts dealt a heavy blow to the management of Tianen Daily—people were unusually indifferent to the virtual little Liuli.
