Chapter 303: Blocking the News
"Ancestor... just received news, that human has appeared again... This time, Bavarian City is destroyed... The special forces in the Billchius State suffered heavy casualties, with one in ten surviving... In addition... Senator Basile Wardhaus sacrificed, along with the Special Forces Captain and other high-ranking officers..."
"What?!!" Upon hearing the report from his subordinate, the pupils of the three vampire ancestors rapidly contracted, and their bodies instinctively trembled, almost falling to the ground!
Previously, the deaths of tens of thousands of vampire civilians meant nothing to them. However, now, with the annihilation of the special forces and the death of Senator Basile Wardhaus, one of the twelve senators, the impact on them was not so simple!
This incident had escalated to a new level, posing a great threat to the rule of the ancestors!
"Ancestor... I suggest we negotiate with that superhuman again... this way..."
"Absolutely impossible!" One of the ancestors slammed the table furiously, roaring, "Mobilize all special forces and unmanned aircraft from all regions! Send them all to the Billchius State! We must find that human at all costs! Kill him, no matter the expense! Also, inform the artillery defense unit to prepare nuclear bombs!"
"What? Nuclear bombs?!! Ancestor! If we use nuclear bombs, the entire Billchius State will..."
"Ancestor, think twice! Billchius is an economic key state. If we use nuclear bombs, the losses for everyone..."
Several senators with related interests in the Billchius State hurriedly stood up, dissuading the ancestor from giving such an order.
"Desperate times call for desperate measures! At this point, what else is there to consider?! This human must be eradicated!"
"Furthermore, if blocking the news proves ineffective, cut off the internet! Control public opinion! Tell the civilians outside that the human has already been eradicated by us!" Another ancestor, with a stern expression, leaned on a cane and issued a commanding order.
Even at this moment, he still considered blocking the news! The deep-rooted belief in the ignorance of the masses was ingrained in the minds of these ancestors. They would rather see ordinary civilians perish than risk unrest that could trouble them.
"But, Ancestor, if ordinary citizens and the special forces don’t understand the threat posed by this person and truly believe he has been eliminated, I’m afraid the tragedy of Bavarian Underground City may happen again!" A female vampire, filled with concern, stood up and spoke with a troubled expression.
Originally, the tragedy at the Bavarian Central Mall should never have occurred! If the council had disclosed the truth of the situation to the special forces and the civilians earlier, such a tragedy would not have happened. If civilians had obediently stayed home, that human would not have been able to easily kill so many vampires.
After all, he was just one person, and killing household by household wouldn’t have led to the death of so many vampires. If the military had not misjudged the situation, such a tragedy wouldn’t have occurred.
She believed that, at this point, the information should be made public. Ordinary civilians and soldiers should know about the terror of this person and the urgency of the situation. However, the three ancestors only sneered coldly and insisted, "Ordinary civilians are nothing more than mere crops! No matter how strong that human is, he cannot destroy our world!
As long as there’s no rebellion, we can still firmly control the world!"
"Stability at home ensures security abroad! If the crops die, we can cultivate new ones! If panic and riots break out, our rule will be threatened!"
"But..." the female vampire senator wanted to say more.
"Don’t say another word! Our decision is final! Block the news immediately!"
Meanwhile, Alex, who had once again destroyed an underground city, appeared in the ruins over 30 kilometers away. In this battle, Alex had exercised some restraint. Although his mental and physical strength had been depleted by more than half, he could still sustain localized, small-scale combat.
The situation had become increasingly dire for Alex. Outside the ruins, the rumble of tanks and the dense sound of helicopter rotors never ceased. The vampire-dominated world had concentrated nearly half of its forces in the state where Alex was located. Even hiding ten meters below ground in the ruins offered no safety.
Alex had to maintain his combat readiness at all times to cope with unforeseen circumstances. In the darkness beneath the ruins, Alex sat on a stone, recovering physical and mental strength. He had taken some food and water from the spatial enclosure and used a cellphone acquired from a vampire civilian to browse news and various reports.
Alex needed to quickly understand this world and stay vigilant for the council’s next moves against him. The internet was the best and most direct means to achieve this. It was evident that destroying two underground cities in the vicinity had already stirred immense anger among the world’s high-ranking figures.
Vampires were mobilizing forces vigorously, reinforcing this generation. Continuing terror attacks in this generation was no longer a wise choice. Even though Alex’s immortality could easily handle unmanned drones and armored units, he dared not be certain whether the deranged higher-ups would resort to dropping an atomic bomb in this generation.
After all, on the internet, public opinion has already started to be guided in this direction! Some vampire marketing accounts are already advocating for the sacrifice of this generation of vampire residents to preserve the race. Keyboard warriors who are relatively distant from the scene are uniting to call on the council to immediately issue a slaughter order and exterminate all human creatures.
Others vehemently demand that the council release nuclear bombs immediately, destroying both Alex and this state together. Continue reading on NovelBin.Côm
However, the news from the vampire council on the internet has a bit of irony. Alex read reports from several major websites and media outlets, all claiming that the special forces had killed the monsters of the human race in this major battle and had completely taken control of the state of Biliqius. They confidently declared that the crisis had been resolved!
"It seems like it’s time to leave here and check out other places! I want to see how these vampires would react if I start a massacre in another state or their capital," Alex smirked coldly, already having a plan in mind.
Over this period, Alex had discovered that while the world was ruled by vampires, ordinary vampires were essentially just pawns with human rights on the surface. Killing more vampires wouldn’t make the high-ranking vampires panic! The real and most direct way to make this world submit was to kill more rulers and vampires who controlled resources, especially the three elders among the council!
According to the information Alex had obtained, these three elders controlled fifty percent of the world’s wealth and resources! The oldest among them was already over eight hundred years old! Therefore, Alex’s next target is the capital of this world!
"Shoot the horse before the rider, capture the bandit leader before pursuing the king!"
Although this world is considered a low-martial world, and the corpses here seem to have limited utility for Alex at the moment, it is, after all, a technologically advanced modern world. Since Alex spent so many doomsday coins to come here, he naturally wants to make a substantial profit before returning!
While Alex’s relentless killing has a small part of it driven by the desire to avenge the human race in this world, more importantly, Alex wants to create panic and chaos in this world so that he can take advantage of the situation!
Since the corpses in this world have limited use, Alex decides to play big!
"System, can I build the City of Darkness in this world?"
[In theory, the host can build the City of Darkness anywhere.]
"Speak in plain language! Can I build it here?"
[Yes.]
With the affirmative response from the system, Alex’s smile becomes even broader!
Since he can build the City of Darkness, he can also construct the Folded Space of the Demon God! Through the City of Darkness, he can enslave the people and vampire servants here!
Although the corpses in this world may not have significant value, don’t forget that this world has a huge population reserve, advanced production capabilities, and technological and weapon resources comparable to Alex’s original world! If he can turn this place into a colony, at least he won’t have to worry about future living supplies and weapons.
Moreover, an essential factor is that the female vampires in this world are incredibly beautiful exotic beauties, each one irresistibly sexy. If he can colonize this world, Alex first needs to cultivate his own harem here.
However, what lies before Alex is not an entirely smooth journey.
Firstly, Alex has limited knowledge of this world, only gaining a general understanding through some media and reports. There is still much about this world that he doesn’t know, especially in-depth details.
Alex opens the navigation on his phone and carefully examines the map. The planet in this world is similar in size to a satellite in Alex’s original world. The total area is roughly equivalent to a state on Earth, and unlike Earth, the ocean and land areas are similar, not scattered continents.
The continents in this world are interconnected. From Alex’s current location to the capital city where the council is located, it’s only a little over 300 kilometers. Given the technological level of this world, if he had a car, driving there would take less than half a day. If there were high-speed trains or planes, it would be even faster.
However, considering Alex’s current speed, he doesn’t need high-speed trains or planes. With his current running speed, it would take just over an hour to reach the vampire capital city, Saint Huanoi Yue Underground City, which is over 300 kilometers away, assuming there are no obstacles along the way!
