Latent Syndrome

Chapter 275 274. Violence

Liberty City, Manhattan.

There are many tall and majestic buildings with glass shells, geometric structures, and electronic advertising signs. The streets are extremely prosperous. Under intensive renovation, the place has restored its former appearance, the extreme prosperity of the world's economic center.

Except for the fact that the square screens and many billboards have been replaced by warnings from the Countermeasures Bureau, everything else is the same as before.

Perhaps the Countermeasures Bureau's advertisements had an effect. There is still a considerable flow of people on the street. People who own assets must fully support the Countermeasures Bureau and do not want to see a chaotic situation affecting their property.

Even if the stock market crashes and the economy slumps, this place is still prosperous and prosperous. It can be said that the assets of ordinary people have shrunk by half, which can be said to be a fatal blow. But for a large number of people, even if they shrunk by half, it is just a matter of buying a few less high-end cars.

Luca and Harris walk down the street.

Generally speaking, Harris would never travel alone, and would always be accompanied by S-level infected people or above, but having Luka by his side was more useful than a hundred S-level infected people.

"SCT."

"Desire to destroy civilization, infect everyone with the disease, and establish a state of pure abyss disease..."

"That is, a world where mental intensity speaks for itself."

"It's actually quite ridiculous."

"No matter what, there will be order, and SCT will eventually fall into a trap. The currency they issue at that time may be called credit points or something like that."

"In any case, the total amount of violence will not change, but there will be a redistribution."

Luka's hunched body is relatively eye-catching among the crowds of people in the city. Many people will glance at him subconsciously, and then calmly look away.

Harris looked at the prosperous square, which was exactly the place that the SCT wanted to destroy the most, at least in a symbolic sense.

He was noncommittal. No one knew why SCT was deliberately spreading Latent Syndrome. Luca's point of view may be correct. Based on the purest logic, there must be profits to be made. As an organization that creates an era, then SCT will become The only organization in the world that exercises dictatorship over the entire earth.

"Like the most primitive tribe."

"Some strong men can catch more prey and even occupy the resources in the surrounding areas, so they can provide more mates and enjoy more food."

"The rest of the tribe will starve to death."

"This is raw violence."

"Order will definitely appear, and a group of weak people will unite to check and balance it, and distribute the resources in the surrounding areas in a relatively fair proportion, so that everyone has food and everyone has a spouse."

“It looks like violence has disappeared, but in fact it has been redistributed.”

"Becoming invisible, circuitous, intervening in people's thoughts, transferred to the spirit."

"Strong people still have better resources and mates, while thin people have to accept the regulation of order. Even if they are jealous of strong people, they have to endure smaller portions of food, and relatively speaking, mate selection genes A more resistant spouse.”

Luca said this.

Although Harris didn't fully understand it, he roughly understood what it meant.

"That's it."

"This kind of violence of redistribution, with the change of order, has almost been eliminated in this era."

Harris thinks that's the logic.

"Really."

The corners of Luka's mouth twitched involuntarily due to the trauma to his facial nerve, which was quite scary.

"In fact, not only is there no resolution."

"This kind of redistribution violence has become out of control to the point of complete violence."

"Seemingly transferring violence to spirituality is a parabola, and the situation will only get better."

"It's actually a halfway point between one extreme form of violence and another extreme form of violence."

"The fundamental reason is."

"It would be okay if it was just a primitive tribe. No matter how powerful a strong person is, a few thin people together can kill him."

"But in modern society, when power is measured by assets."

"One strong person...is enough to fight against tens of thousands, or even more, thin people."

"Do you understand?"

“This…violence of redistribution.”

While Luka was speaking, the two had arrived at their destination.

Although there is no review mechanism for the new agents of Section 4, as long as they are infected, they can be accepted as a member of the Countermeasures Bureau before the SCT finds them.

But it is still injected with a locator, and the detailed location within five meters can be queried on the terminal.

Luca and Harris stood outside a mid-to-high-end coffee shop, looking through the glass wall at the new agent inside. The fat man wearing glasses was not wearing a cartoon at this time. T-shirt, but an ill-fitting suit. His body shape made the suit too big.

According to the Intelligence Division's investigation, after becoming a new agent, this man had sexually assaulted no less than five young women, using roughly the same method.

He used Section 4's generous salary to lure these women out for high consumption. During the recession, these women thought they had found a foothold, and in the end they would be drugged by him and then commit crimes.

"You see, that woman is quite impatient."

"Because I didn't expect that the real man was completely different from the photo of him on the website."

Luka looked at his watch. It was still early, so he treated this as an after-dinner entertainment program.

"Let's go in and kill him."

Harris was a little troubled and felt very embarrassed. This was indeed his dereliction of duty. Perhaps it would be better to put more effort into the review mechanism.

He really expected the situation to develop in another direction, but when the agent was exposed to such rubbish, he was really disgraced.

"No."

"You did very well."

"This is called redistributive violence."

"As a member of the Force, his ideology has been completely deformed, cynical, and hates everything. After gaining strength."

"It is reasonable to become such a person."

"All his actions are just compensation for the mental violence he suffered."

Luca thought it was interesting.

"Let's get this shit done quickly."

Even though Harris didn't care about other people's opinions, the more Luka talked, it made him extremely embarrassed. Even if he didn't want to kill this person, he had to kill him.

Luca just watched from the outside.

Harris entered the cafe and directly said that he was a member of the Countermeasures Bureau. Since all the problems were made public, there was no need to hide and say that this man was an infected person and a terrorist.

Hit him directly on the head with a bang with special ammunition.

In the stunned silence of all the customers, his entire head burned into blue ashes and he died.
