When a system is stable, a fixed hierarchy will be formed. In order to always stand at the top and consolidate their position, the upper management will only find ways to control the channels for promotion.
Because only a few people can reach the top of the pyramid.
People at the bottom cannot tolerate living at the bottom forever, but those at the top long to maintain their status forever and not fall.
This is a paradox.
However, when a society is relatively young, conflicts will only gradually accumulate.
However, human desires are endless.
People have two stars, one is greed and the other is unwillingness.
However, our ancestors have long said: People should not be too greedy. When you get a thousand coins, you want ten thousand coins. When you become an emperor, you also want to become an immortal. People have two hands. Even if you enter the gold and silver mountains, you can only take the money. Two things, if you take a gold and silver bracelet, you can't take the jade Ruyi. How can you get what you want? Don't take it seriously when things happen. Be at ease. The more you think about troubles, the more they will get over.
But, how many people can listen to such a simple truth?
Yang Xiao still underestimated the significance of his existence.
Lifespan, the only limitation for the superior and the guarantee for the change of power, is about to be completely broken.
He is just a catalyst.
Even without him, without the emergence of monsters, mysterious giant eagles or dragons, with the continued development of prosthetic technology, alternative immortality has actually appeared in a sense.
And with Ye Shan's Hualing Group, the test of super brain supplement ZGT-1 was successful.
A historical anchor that will change the entire evolution of humanity is rapidly taking shape.
Although Yang Xiao's current strength is infinitely stronger than before, it is still insignificant in the face of real official power.
Faced with the continuous bombardment, he could only follow his instinct to avoid a safe place like a headless fly.
The facts were indeed as he had guessed. The experimental data obtained from Zou Dechao and retained by Ye Shan were now fully mastered by the higher-ups.
Combined with the recent continuous abnormal intelligence sorting, the higher-ups have determined that the source of everything lies in Yang Xiao, or in the monster parasitic in Yang Xiao's body.
Of course, not everyone wants to directly destroy Yang Xiao's anomaly. Among the senior officials, the attitude toward Yang Xiao was actually quite complicated.
Some want monsters, but no one can ignore the temptation of immortality.
Some want to gain more potential benefits by studying monsters.
Others believe that Yang Xiao is a huge scourge, and that his existence itself is a subversion of human society. To deal with such anomalies, we should directly destroy them completely so that we can get rid of them once and for all.
The positions are different and the ideas are completely different.
However, this time, it was the young and strong faction that had the upper hand. Although they usually submit to the authority of the older generation, when faced with the possibility that their rights and interests would be greatly infringed upon, they decided to take decisive direct action.
Destroy everything before anyone else can react.
Soon, in addition to cannonballs, more powerful weapons began to sweep towards this area.
If the howitzer's killing radius is only about twenty meters. Various satellite and infrared jointly guided cruise missiles can reach an astonishing more than eighty meters!
A split attack of submunitions and a single cruise missile can even destroy nearly half a city block.
While breathing, Yang Xiao looked at the deadly threats in the sky. For the second time, he felt incomparable horror and fear!
It was as if every cell in his body was warning him.
Danger! Run away!
In normal times, facing such a coverage bombing, it would only take less than half a minute, and no one present would be able to survive. Because there are no dead ends, every place is full of danger of death.
This is war!
Modern thermal weapons have already developed to terrifying levels. The terrifying kinetic and thermal energy carried by artillery shells and missiles can easily destroy all living creatures into fragments.
The scientific research conducted by human beings on the road of mutual destruction is enough to prove that this race full of infinite possibilities has terrible bestiality and violent genes in its bones.
Fortunately, the entire Xueyu County is now deeply affected by the landing of Typhoon Du Shurui. At this moment, the storm has not stopped, and under the influence of thick clouds and continuous thunderstorms, various high-tech weapons have been seriously affected.
Even for precision-guided missiles, the accuracy has been affected to a certain extent under the influence of such complex celestial phenomena.
This gave many people a chance to escape.
Covered in blood, Yang Xiao ran away quickly. Immediately, he quickly pulled Ye Zilong away from the core area of the battle.
However, although he did not move slowly, the two of them were unlucky and were still baptized by missiles.
Ye Zilong was very direct. After vomiting a lot of blood, he was seriously injured and passed out.
Even though he has a strong warrior physique, he is not qualified to continue standing in the face of technological weapons that represent the true collective wisdom of mankind.
The fact that he was not torn into pieces by this Qingfeng missile was already the result of his ancestor's blessing.
Also overturned by the missile, Yang Xiao was wrapped in a large amount of soil, and his body was knocked to the side uncontrollably.
Although he used brute force to break away from the majestic kinetic energy in mid-air, he was still hit head-on by countless fragments.
At this time, the role of his light armor and body armor was once again revealed.
After landing, he rolled seven or eight times in a row. Yang Xiao felt a dull feeling in his chest, and his body was already embedded in a concrete wall.
He almost spit out the blood-soaked mouthful, but he forcefully swallowed it again.
Not daring to delay, he reached out and pulled aside, and he stood up again. Glancing around, he saw Ye Zilong with a blackened face and tragic injuries in a crater not far away.
Looking at the increasingly dense and large number of attacks, overwhelming.
Yang Xiao knew that he had no time to think now and could only continue to run away into the distance.
Since the higher-ups have given the order, if you don't escape quickly, you will only become a victim of the struggle between the higher-ups.
As for being exposed and possibly affecting the official image, there is no possibility at all.
Gas explosions, natural gas leaks, and even natural and man-made disasters such as typhoons passing through. Any reason is enough to cover up the humanitarian disaster happening here now.
Anyway, in the end, there was only one simple news report, which was enough to give everyone an explanation.
As for the truth.
No one will really care.
In the Internet age, there are breaking news every day, which can easily divert the attention of the people.
A little more navy leadership, and soon, monsters, giant eagles and dragons will become an internet rumor.
These things can only exist in fantasy, how can they really exist in the real world.
It's just fake news created by some people who are not real and who want to benefit themselves.
When the time comes, find some scapegoats to bring the whole thing to a perfect ending.
The whole society is in harmony and continues to live in the established direction. Isn't that the best of both worlds?
Countless thoughts flew through my head in the blink of an eye.
Yang Xiao has already made hundreds of speculations, but no matter which one they are, they have no meaning for his current dangerous situation.
This was just the first wave of terrorist attacks covered by firepower. He could not imagine what follow-up measures the military would have.
At this time, he didn't dare to gamble. Saving his own life was the prerequisite for everything.
With almost no hesitation, he began to transform, switching into the appearance of a shadow assassin.
The body turned into a black shadow, blending into the shadows of a large number of buildings.
Yang Xiao quickly disappeared.
On the spot, he put the seriously injured Ye Zilong into the mechanical armor. Yang Xiao even gave this boy a bulletproof vest.
He didn't know whether Ye Zilong could survive. The mechanical armor also had system positioning and life-support functions. This location had been bombarded by missiles several times, and a large number of buildings collapsed.
Everything is left to fate.
Although the two were friends, at this time, Yang Xiao could only live with his fellow Taoist rather than his poor Taoist.
Ye Zilong's status was extraordinary, and it was certainly impossible for the Ye family to let their heirs die here so easily.
This is not the first time Yang Xiao has used magical powers.
His entire body blended into the shadow, and with the help of the shadow's range, he was able to run away at an astonishing speed.
For the first time in Kunsha Prison, he saw the shadow assassin's weird super power, and he was extremely jealous.
At that time, he decided that he must obtain the same ability.
Because, this ability is too heaven-defying.
Man is a creature in the three-dimensional world. He is obviously a solid body. However, by using his powers, he can transform the three-dimensional creature into a shadow, completely losing its volume.
This was not in line with the scientific outlook he had grown up with.
It's like magic.
However, in the real world, magic does not exist. Everything is physics, the entire world is a material existence, and the underlying logic that determines this world is the rules of physics and mathematics.
Therefore, Yang Xiao felt extremely miraculous after the first successful use of his superpower. As a scientist, he only feels that the world is still full of endless unknowns and is worth exploring.
Existence is reasonable.
Human beings are just dust in the majestic universe.
The world we understand is still too shallow. Even the earth beneath our feet, this planet where humans have lived for millions of years, is filled with countless mysteries that remain unsolved.
