The casino city of Las Vegas at this time is completely different from what everyone has seen in movies and TV.
There is no feasting, no extravagance, no lavishness and heroic spirit of spending money like water.
There is nothing but dilapidation and depression, drug addicts and bad gamblers wandering the streets, and countless camping tents and cardboard boxes set up on the roadside.
The person living in those tattered tents and cardboard boxes was a living person, but it didn't look like a human being.
Many of them have haggard shapes, stiff limbs, black and blue faces, and unkempt appearance, like walking corpses.
The originally dazzling Las Vegas Strip was basically completely occupied by these homeless drug addicts and bad gamblers.
The whole street was in a mess, with rubbish everywhere and even urination and defecation all over the street.
The air was filled with the stench of feces, urine, and drugs, which was nauseating to smell.
When Xiao Ran and the others drove down the Las Vegas Strip, they had to hold their breath.
The walking zombies gathered on the roadside stared at every car passing by on the street with their blood-red eyes.
The eyes of these guys are full of greed and even hatred.
Fortunately, the Las Vegas police were prepared.
In order to cooperate with the auction held by the Venetian Casino, the police deployed a large number of police forces on the streets to maintain law and order.
The casino, which has been completely shut down for four or five months, needs such an event and money!
Because of this, the Las Vegas police were faced with a formidable enemy and sent so many police officers to maintain law and order.
The miserable current situation in Las Vegas shocked everyone.
The two beauties sitting in Xiao Ran's car looked stunned.
"Oh my God! The situation here is so bad, ten times worse than those slums in Los Angeles!"
Elaine said with emotion.
"I never imagined that Las Vegas would look like this. It's like a huge refugee camp."
"Look at those people on the roadside. They all look like skeletons. It's so scary!"
Fang Yufei continued, her voice trembling.
Hearing this, Xiao Ran also shook his head.
"These guys out there are basically drug addicts and bad gamblers. They used to rely on major casinos to survive. They can still survive and make some money."
"Now that all casinos are closed, and they stay closed for four to five months, these guys have completely lost their source of livelihood and can only live on the streets."
"They can only rely on social relief and food assistance to survive now. It would be good to be alive..."
While he was talking, a burst of exclamations came from the live broadcast room.
"Xiao Ran, are you sure this is the legendary Las Vegas, a gambling city with feasting and spending money, and not a zombie movie shooting base?"
"Look at those guys outside. They all look like walking zombies. They are basically zombies. They don't even look like a human being!"
You asked in disbelief that you were able to ward off evil spirits.
Not only he couldn't believe it, but so did everyone else in the live broadcast room.
"Fuck! Las Vegas is in such ruins. Who can believe it?"
"Originally, I wanted to go shopping in Las Vegas, but now it seems like I'd better forget it. Isn't it good to live?"
Eggless Chicken Cake said with emotion.
After listening to everyone's discussion, Xiao Ran smiled and said:
"Not only Las Vegas, but also places like this in Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and other cities."
"In South City, Los Angeles, there is such a street that looks like a zombie base. The streets are full of haggard drug addicts."
"According to a friend who studied in Philadelphia, Kensington Street in Philadelphia is full of zombie-like people."
"If you don't believe me, you can search online. The picture will definitely subvert your outlook on life and give you nightmares."
There was another exclamation in the live broadcast room, and everyone was shocked.
Immediately afterwards, some curious guys began to search the Internet for the situation on Kensington Street in Philadelphia.
Soon, they were exposed to numerous images and videos of Kensington High Street.
Just as Xiao Ran said.
After seeing the pictures and videos of zombies all over the streets, these curious guys were completely shocked and felt bad.
While talking, Xiao Ran and the others had arrived at the famous casino area.
This is the core area of Las Vegas, where top hotels and casinos are gathered.
At the core intersection, there are four large casinos and five-star hotels including the famous MGM Casino Hotel, New York Casino, Sword in the Stone Casino Hotel, and Tropical Garden Hotel.
The situation here is not much better. Every casino is closed and there are no tourists.
There are also many camping tents and cardboard boxes set up around each casino, especially in the shady areas.
The streets are littered with garbage, the stench is sky-high, walking dead can be seen everywhere, and there are many guys begging along the streets.
Based on the scenes we saw before, and looking at the situation on the street outside, everyone is already familiar with it.
The walking zombies on both sides of the street looked at the vehicles coming from all over the place. Everyone's eyes were filled with greed and even hatred.
The news that the Venetian Casino held an auction of expired mortgage items has already spread throughout Las Vegas.
The walking zombies in the city who were struggling on the edge of life and death naturally heard the news.
These guys know that each of the professional treasure hunters who came to Las Vegas to participate in this auction has a certain net worth.
There are some billionaires among them, such as the magical Chinese guy from Los Angeles, whose net worth exceeds one billion US dollars.
Because of this, these drug addicts and bad gamblers on the streets behave like they do now.
In their view, every car that came to Las Vegas today was a mobile ATM machine, and the kind that did not require a password.
In fact, in addition to these zombie-like guys, there are many guys who have the same idea.
Most of these guys are local gangsters in Las Vegas, but there are also some gangsters from other places who have heard about it.
As Xiao Ran said, Las Vegas at this time is like a dragon's pool and a tiger's den.
If there weren't too many police officers on duty, the drug addicts, bad gamblers, and many gangsters gathered on the roadside would have rushed up and robbed them.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ran and the others were in front of the MGM Casino Hotel.
Just as they were waiting to pass the intersection, a convoy of more than thirty vehicles suddenly came from the east side of the street.
These vehicles all have New Mexico license plates, and most of them are pickup trucks like F150.
What's more, everyone in these vehicles is heavily armed, wearing body armor and armed with assault rifles or shotguns.
Everyone was shocked when they saw how these guys were dressed.
Xiao Ran was the same, secretly shocked.
At this moment, Anthony's voice suddenly came from the intercom.
"Sean, these guys are professional treasure hunters from New Mexico. They came in a team."
Hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately exclaimed.
"Wow! These guys didn't come to participate in the auction, they just came to fight, okay?"
"They probably heard about the current situation in Las Vegas. To ensure safety, they formed a group and came here fully armed."
"Compared to these tough guys, the professional treasure hunters in Los Angeles are like a bunch of stragglers."
When he said this, both Elaine and Fang Yufei looked at the New Mexico army not far away with dumbfounded eyes.
In both of their eyes, a look of worry could not be suppressed.
Unlike them, the guys in the live broadcast room were all screaming with excitement.
"I'll go! This battle is too big and a bit scary! Is there going to be a big battle in Las Vegas?"
Hell Dabai said excitedly, obviously he was a person who did not take things too seriously.
"Now I really doubt it. Is this really an auction? I have never heard of anyone participating in an auction like this."
"One more thing, why can these New Mexico guys swagger through the city fully armed? But you, Xiao Ran, can't?"
Huang Tian continued talking from above.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately explained a few words.
"The reason is simple, the two states have different gun laws."
“California is one of the states with the strictest gun control laws in the United States, but New Mexico is the state with the loosest gun laws.”
“In New Mexico, you don’t even need a license to hold a gun, everyone grabs it,…”
While Xiao Ran was popularizing gun laws, several guys in the New Mexico convoy were staring closely at his bulletproof Cullinan.
"Did you see that, sitting in the bulletproof Curlinan to the south is that magical Chinese boy?"
"I didn't expect this kid to come too. This is not a good thing. He is probably our biggest competitor."
"This guy is not only a billionaire, I heard he is also a ruthless guy."
A white man in his thirties said in a deep voice.
Before he finished speaking, a guy in his forties next to him started talking.
"Our most important goal is the land deed. Everything else is not important. We must win the land deed."
"If we face this guy in the auction, we can make concessions in other aspects, but we cannot give in to the land deed."
While he was talking, the traffic lights at the intersection had changed.
The moment the light turned green, Xiao Ran and the others drove through the intersection and headed straight to the Venetian Casino Hotel not far away.
