Chapter 72

Views:

July is hot, September is the season for clothing. The endless drizzle soaks the yellowing leaves, the grey mist permeates the streets and alleys, and the huge city is shrouded in endless water vapor.

The weather cooled rapidly.

"The much-anticipated second wave of global evolution has come to a temporary end, heralding the beginning of a larger-scale racial confrontation. In recent days, a number of small-scale bloody conflicts between Evolvers and humans have broken out in European and American countries. Extreme evolutionary organizations have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, demanding that governments of various countries enact the "Evolutionary Preferential Treatment Law", including dividing territories, establishing autonomous regions for Evolvers, and enjoying unilateral trade preferences..."

In the Supervisory Office's office, Shen Zhuo leaned back against the windowsill.

The screen's fluorescent light was reflected on his profile, his features were deep and his face was frosty, his shirt sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, revealing a section of his forearm, and one hand was in the pocket of his black trousers.

He picked up the remote control and randomly changed the news channel.

The screen changed.

Intense gunfire was ringing out on a street in the suburbs of New York City. A civilian armed team composed of humans was firing fiercely, surrounding and approaching a residential house with a bang. After a while, the Evolved in the residential house could not bear the disturbance and spurted out a ball of supernatural fire in response. The loud noise even shook the camera lens a few times.

"… The confrontation between European and American countries is becoming increasingly serious. The public's dissatisfaction with the Evolvers is rising sharply, and humans have spontaneously formed various armed resistance forces. According to incomplete statistics, the "Salvation Army" and "Humanity Defense Army" have emerged in Europe, strongly calling for the unified expulsion of the Evolvers, the establishment of high-walled concentration camps, and even demanding the establishment of a large-scale human experiment base to detain high-level Evolvers... "

"... In stark contrast to the 'opposition faction', more and more humans have voluntarily joined the 'surrender faction'. They believe that human genes are indeed relatively inferior, and that it is better to adapt to the development of the times and allow those with better genes to lead society forward. This is the only way to save the current depressed global economic situation..."

Shen Zhuo's eyes were gloomy. He picked up the half-glass of whiskey on the windowsill and took a sip, then changed the channel casually.

On the streets of a certain European country, a vigorous protest march filled the streets and alleys: "Heresy!" "Expel!" "Protest the Evolutionary Favorability Act!"...

Colorful protest signs flashed across the screen, and suddenly the camera froze.

In the middle of the team, I saw many people holding long banners and portraits. The person in the portrait was standing sideways, holding an umbrella in one hand, with only his cold white chin exposed at the edge of the black umbrella. It turned out to be Shen Zhuo who appeared in the media photos a few years ago.

"… Shen Zhuo, one of the world's top ten permanent inspectors, is now worshipped as a god by some "opposition factions" in Europe and the United States… Inspector Shen Zhuo has been investigated many times for suspected use of Evolvers for inhumane experiments and suspected murder of S-level Evolvers. Opposition factions believe that Shen Zhuo represents the vanguard of mankind and is the only hope to eliminate Evolvers… "

The sound stopped abruptly.

The projection screen returned to darkness and Shen Zhuo put down the remote control.

There was no light on in the office. The air was dim and quiet, and the tables and chairs were arranged in unclear lines.

Outside the window, the sky was blue and the drizzle was falling, as if covering the huge city with a layer of dark and damp veil.
