Seventy thousand hostages, this should be the largest hostage incident in history.
Whether on or off the field, the live broadcast of the King of Heroes Cup final, which was originally a grand event of the century, has concentrated the attraction of the world here.
There is no need for the media outside the venue to make inquiries. Lu Qingjia does not hinder the contact and reporting of the media on the venue and the outside world.
So after hearing the speech that shocked the world, countless people saw the chaos on the scene and the panic in the audience.
But it didn't take long for the restlessness to subside.
One is that the police force on the scene has already refined the area to maintain order, and the other is that several ability users have activated their abilities.
The ability of several people is that they can emit a calming gas from their bodies, although they are not strong enough to cover the entire venue.
However, the huge hot air balloon inflatable column used for decoration in the venue was also broken open, and inside was the calming gas that had been stored, which allowed the police force on the scene to calm down the possible chaos with maximum efficiency.
At this point, the Hero Association and the top management are still unclear. This is a terrorist activity that has been planned for a long time and involves many forces
The president of the association shouted angrily: "Are you crazy? As the police and special forces, your mission is to protect the people, but now you are in trouble with terrorists. Look at the national emblem on your uniform."
Lu Qingjia said: "As expected of the president, the representative of the Justice League, he speaks brightly and swears to the death."
"You, who have the power to mobilize many heroes, have made the scene where countless heroes are held hostage. Should you feel guilty for your incompetence?"
"you-"
"Come on, give the order." Lu Qingjia opened his arms: "Let the heroes fight for honor, swear not to be prisoners, swear to defend the glory of the King of Heroes Cup, and not let the evil elements tarnish the slightest, although it is possible to sacrifice, but the spirit Eternal, the dignity and honor of the hero will live forever, and there will be no dust for a moment."
"Come on, give the order."
The president was trembling with anger at Lu Qingjia's aggressive and provocative attitude. He glanced at the heroes around him. Under such a situation, almost everyone avoided his gaze.
Not to mention the heroes who just came to watch the game, but they silently shrank back, trying their best to reduce their sense of existence.
It was a few young and bloody people who were pressed by someone they knew when they wanted to get ahead, and motioned for the other party to look at the military alert around them, but in the end they could only hold back indignantly.
Any silt makes it extremely close to humiliation.
The camera faithfully recorded this scene, and the hostages and the audience outside the venue, who had been expecting the association, were disillusioned.
Leaving aside the comments from outside the venue, many audience members stood up and said loudly, "Fight against the gangsters, aren't you heroes?"
"So many people gathered together can't protect ordinary people, are you trash?"
"Are all our money raising waste?"
These voices represented the thoughts of many people on and off the field, although the voices were silenced after a while.
"Quiet!" Lu Qingjia said in front of the microphone.
He looked at the faces of the heroes around him, most of them were humiliated and embarrassed, but he also pretended not to hear those accusations.
When everyone thought he would pick up the plane and continue to mock the hero, they heard him say: "I noticed it."
"Whether it is the audience on or off the field, it seems to have an illusion."
"When the heroes come to risk their own lives, they choose to protect themselves rather than fight to the death for unrelated people. Isn't this your own choice?"
"I chose it myself, so what's there to complain about?"
If someone usually expresses such a point of view, it will definitely be laughed at, and no one will even remember this sentence.
But now as the biggest terror leader, and proved the backbone of the heroes with facts.
With silt to make the world's unparalleled attention at this moment, then the weight of what he said would be different.
At least some people have fallen into reflection. Although they still instinctively think that this is a fallacy of terrorists, the fact is that they are powerless.
So much anger and venting was poured into inaction associations and heroes.
For a time, there was an endless stream of disappointment and humiliation for the association and the hero on the Internet. Countless people claimed that after this time, they would no longer support the hero.
Lu Qingjia then smiled and said, "It seems that you are not conscious of this. While using heroes as spiritual entertainment, you also expect others to sacrifice their lives to protect you."
"Isn't the hero's usual business show already satisfying what you need to spend for it? Why ask for more? In the age of traditional idols, would you place such expectations on idols?"
"No way? Then why do you ask for heroes so naturally? After all, they are neither policemen nor soldiers, and they have no sense of responsibility inherent in their profession. At the beginning, the establishment of the Hero Organization was just a person with power, a pure one. Passionate about helping others."
The hostages present did not dare to question Lu Qingjia, but it did not mean that the audience on the Internet did not dare.
Separated by a network cable, the other party can't do anything to them.
So after Lu Qingjia's words fell, the Internet was full of abuse and refutation.
"This thing is just a joke, what kind of heroes are people who can't save people?"
"Have you forgotten the rules you have to memorize on the day you get your hero license?"
"The police and soldiers are not treated as well as your heroes. They still sacrifice their lives for the people. It turns out that so much money and such good treatment have raised such cowardly and shameless things."
"I used to say on the Internet that the hero's remuneration is getting higher and higher these days, and there are still people chasing me to spray, all in exchange for their lives, how is it now?"
Lu Qingjia is also a pervert. He not only does not shy away from those remarks, but even connects them on the big screen.
For a time, all the heroes on the scene saw the evaluation of the outside world, and they were ashamed and angry.
Lu Qingjia was only interested in one message: "Oh? Everyone thinks heroes earn high income?"
After speaking, a data table appeared on the screen, which divided the income level and number of heroes.
The high level is naturally amazing, and even a top-notch hero can’t match the lifetime income of a middle-class family with an endorsement.
Popular traffic and the second and third tiers are still beyond the reach of ordinary people. Although the fourth, fifth and sixth tiers are becoming more common, they can still guarantee a solid life based on today's average salary. If you are lucky enough to receive endorsements and advertisements, then the market will be good for a year.
But then it looks pitiful, especially the recognition is not high, the task performance is not bright enough, and it is mostly the eighteen lines that set off.
Just like in the traditional entertainment industry, the brightest is always the top, and this number, although the popular heroes you see every day are dazzling, but the real statistics show that the income exceeds the average salary level, including all the top heroes, but the number is very small. Poor.
Like the former silt workers, those who live in cheap rented houses and get a guaranteed minimum salary are the norm for many practitioners in the circle.
After seeing this form, the audience was not persuaded. Instead, they said that heroes speak with strength, and which industry does not have competition? Who lives without stress? Since you have chosen to enter this industry, you must implement professional ethics.
Lu Qingjia smiled, as if very happy.
"Choose to enter this line? It's as if you have given those with ability other choices."
The smile disappeared from his face: "I'm glad someone has pointed out the crux of the problem."
"This is the end of the tedious conversation for now."
"It's the King of Heroes Cup final, and as I said, nothing will get in the way of it being fair and smooth."
"The matchmaking machine has long been passive, and it is not a random duel at all, so please ask the thirteen heroes in the final to decide who to fight with by guessing."
Everyone thought this guy was an anti-hero, and when he took the opportunity to vent his long-suppressed dissatisfaction and distorted ideas, he turned his head and started the game again.
Who is still in the mood to watch the game at this time? The heroes of the final also frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.
One of the heroes sneered: "You let the hostages compete with the robbers? Does it make sense? Where is the fairness?"
The bullet said, "It's just as fair as before. When the old man announced that the silt made him disqualify from the competition, you laughed so proudly."
As soon as the other party choked, he saw the Sludge Master, Sweetheart Chocolate and the other two heroes stretch out their hands: "Come on, guess the boxing."
Being controlled by others, I had to do the same, and the sorting came out. The first round of the thirteen people happened to be Lu Qingjia's bye.
He smiled: "It seems that I am lucky, so let's start the first game."
He looked at the two heroes who looked a little nervous, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I promise in front of all the audience in the world that once the game starts, no unrelated people will interfere in the game."
"Players who do not belong to the same arena will be considered illegal once they enter the arena and will be disqualified immediately."
His tone was normal, but his expression was conceited: "After all, I want to win the championship, but I don't want to be criticized for not being worthy of the name."
No one on or off the field knew what he wanted to do.
However, unlike the hostages who were taken hostage in the venue, most of the audience was not life-threatening. Although they sympathized with the audience, most of them had nothing to do with themselves.
After the long-awaited finals officially started, it didn't take long for the online atmosphere to be mobilized.
There are too many hostages at the scene, and there are bubbles of absolute defense, and it is a large-scale organization. Even if someone wants to rescue, there is not enough force to suppress it for a while.
Even if they got together, they didn't dare to act rashly, so the entire venue formed an island, and Lu Qingjia rejected all those who wanted to negotiate outside.
The first matchup was very exciting. Compared with the average performance of the selection camp, the strength of the head hero was essentially the difference.
Moreover, the top heroes have never fought evenly in front of the public. A showdown is gorgeous and thrilling. Not to mention the audience outside the arena, even many people in the arena are also attracted by this wonderful battle, temporarily forgetting the danger of their own situation.
In six games in a row, six heroes were eliminated, but the six wonderful duels also seemed to make everyone downplay the impact of the kidnapping incident.
Lu Qingjia even saw that after the second game, the basic atmosphere of the audience was no different from the beginning, and they were already fully engaged in the excitement of the game.
What a world of entertainment to death.
He smiled and walked to the stage to juxtapose with the six remaining heroes: "A few have worked hard, and the six who were eliminated are still proud even though they were defeated."
"In the next time, please rest and adjust the six heroes who have experienced battles to recover their physical strength."
"At halftime, we have prepared a wonderful leisure program for the audience on the spot and in front of the screen, so please enjoy."
I don't know if the finals went smoothly, and the merciless competition of the heroes gave the audience an illusion.
He thought that although the Sludge Maker was extreme, the King of Heroes Cup should go on smoothly, so he didn't think much about his so-called halftime show.
Many people even prepared to take the opportunity to go to the toilet.
At this moment, the auditorium was bored. I thought cheerleading or singing and dancing stars would appear, but I saw a documentary-like scene on the big screen.
Accompanied by the explanation, the reasons for the evolution of capable people are introduced in an easy-to-understand manner.
The first ability person appeared more than 20 years ago. Since the first ability person appeared, there have been reports one after another for a certain period of time. The ability person appeared almost overnight.
There are different opinions about the reason, but the official has not given a specific explanation.
After so many years, the society has long been able to adapt to the existence of people, although only a small part of the population, but this special group has also been well integrated into the modern society.
I just didn't expect to see the reveal here.
It turned out that the cause was the invasion of a group of alien bacteria more than 20 years ago. They randomly adsorbed on humans, and some of the infected people awakened their abilities.
This is a bit like the beginning of many doomsday scripts, but the luck of this world is that there are no mutants, and at the same time, they have not become zombies.
The mutation of human beings is naturally a major event that shocked the world. Even if only a small number of people are, it also allows others to see the hope of evolution.
At that time, genetic research on the able-bodied became the hottest topic.
Of course, crime breeds in this, but fortunately, before the contradiction between the superhuman and ordinary human beings is irreconcilable, a joint organization established by the elites of various countries has emerged to protect the life safety and ordinary rights of the capable people, and there will be no social conflicts. excitation.
At that time, the heroes who were powerful and wanted to use their abilities to maintain social stability and help others formed a group.
In the cities where they operate, the crime rate has plummeted, public security has improved, and there are spectators over the age of 40 and 50 at the scene, which has been experienced from that era.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but say to the people around me: "The heroes at that time were really good."
Just as on and off the field lamented the end of the hero now and his backbone was gone, the style of painting changed on the screen.
The organization established by the multi-national dignitaries approached the League of Legends and expressed their willingness to sponsor them to make the hero activities more efficient, attract more capable young people, establish the values of actively helping others, and promote the development of society.
The heroes believed their promise and established the Hero Association together with them.
The operation of the association and the cost of assisting hero activities are very high. As more heroes are absorbed, it is definitely not realistic to rely on the funding of the powerful.
It is inevitable that the Hero Association becomes a self-sufficient for-profit organization.
At that time, people's gratitude and worship for heroes were relatively pure, but as the heroes gradually compromised with the association, things changed.
At the beginning, it only sold the video authorization of on-site rescue to TV stations and online platforms, and then produced hero figures, and then a hero with a better image received advertising endorsements, which in turn affected the selection criteria and business distribution of heroes.
It was obvious that everyone acted in the beginning, just wanting to help others, and later heroes with low popularity and commercial value did not even have many mission opportunities.
Can it be imagined? Helping others, curbing crime, and saving lives requires permission.
Some heroes reacted and felt that the hero rescue had gone against the original intention, reacted strongly, and fought with the association on the grounds.
But they failed!
I don't know where Lu Qingjia got the video materials. The top heroes of the first generation, the high-spirited faces of their youth appeared in front of everyone.
There are still many viewers who remember them, even if they are younger, as long as they are hero fans, they will also archaeological heroes of the past dynasties.
Many people fell into nostalgia, remembering that the top heroes at that time did withdraw from the association overnight, announced that they would no longer carry out hero activities, and returned the hero license, so they left after many regrets and fans.
Therefore, in their impression, whether they are new or old fans, those heroes are all idols of the white moonlight level to them. Even if the heroes were cowardly just now, many people thought that if they were the heroes at the time, they would never It is so.
At this point, some people seem to have grasped the meaning of the 'choice you made' when the Sludge Envoy said.
Sure enough, I saw the pictures of the heroes who were unable to recover and were forced to retire.
The Hero Association is in charge of funds and operations. With the increase in the number of registered heroes, the early heroes are no longer irreplaceable.
In addition to the early heroes, many of them have already been fascinated by the applause of flowers and the rich remuneration and the life of a drunken fan. Where can they still remember the original ideal, and even satirize the heroes who were forced to leave because they did not know how to adapt, could not adapt to the times, and were destined to be abandoned.
Seeing this, even ordinary audiences feel uncomfortable, let alone fans who regard those heroes as Bai Yueguang.
It turns out that his idol left in such a downhearted way.
At this time, I don't know who spoke first, and suddenly noticed: "Isn't it the ability of the bubble maker to block the soap bubbles in the audience?"
"I also feel like, I saw it at close range back then, the ability of the Bubble Maker is absolute defense. Before he disarms the ability to pierce the bubble, no matter whether it is a knife, gun, fire or smoke, it can't hurt the bubble. people."
"Because of this ability, he has saved countless lives. I remember that there was a fire in a shopping mall, the passage was congested, and thousands of people could not get out. He saved the lives of these people."
"That's my dad."
"Does the appearance of the Bubble Envoy mean that everything the Sludge Envoy said is true?"
"I don't believe that bubblers are complicit with terrorists."
"Look again, look again."
This is also the psychology of many people outside the field at the moment. They have high recognition for those heroes who were really pure and simple in the early days, and who retired with regret at their peak.
Different from the eyes that look at idols today, at this time, I saw the inside story of the other party's retirement at that time, and used their ability to prove it.
At this time, many people couldn't help but start to reflect on whether the nature of this kidnapping was what they thought at the beginning.
After the veteran heroes left, the Hero Association became more reckless. After several years of development, it replaced the traditional idol industry and formed a huge chain of hero idol interests.
They succeeded, which is the victory of capital. Sure enough, capital came to the world, and every pore was dripping with dirty blood.
If this is what the Sludge Master wants to express, most viewers think they understand his philosophy.
But a very small number of sober people understand that even if the association's underpants are removed and their ugliness exposed to the public, the status quo will not change.
After all, they are the ones who control the capital and the market, so what if they hand over a few people for the sake of public anger
But then they realized that what they thought was too simple. Since the Sludge Envoy dared to take action and kidnap 70,000 people, what he planned was naturally not such a painless result.
After the documentary was over, the Sludger appeared on the podium, ignoring the ugly faces of the association and management.
He raised his hand and pressed it to signal the scene to stop whispering, and then smiled: "Don't rush to express your position, this is just the appetizer of the halftime show."
"What we want to say, about the truth of the entire hero industry, about the treatment of all mutants, about the promotion and guidance of certain people, and the bullying of the superhuman by the whole society, this is just the beginning."
Many people frowned upon hearing this. If the so-called whole society is bullying, it means that most people are bullying.
But for ordinary people, they do not have the evolutionary advantage of mutants. Most people work hard all their lives, and those who are capable have infinite possibilities from birth. How can you say that the other party is still weak
Even the law has issued a lot of clauses to protect their interests, obviously they are the preferential treatment group in the society
But I heard Lu Qingjia say: "When the situation is stabilized, a hero association is established, and everyone's impression of capable people is transferred to heroes."
"Some people have already started plans that have already been laid out."
"Look at the screen behind me. From the beginning of the year to the present, there are countless newspapers and articles that advocate the superiority of those who are capable, and that those who advocate ability are evolved human beings who are born with ease and superiority compared to ordinary people."
"Using the deviation of survivors, let people see the glorious life of heroes and idols, with a lot of income, and those who instill the ability can easily be separated from the fate of the common people with a little effort. It is natural to think that people with ability should be born excellent, if If you don’t enter the hero industry, you should respond to more expectations in schools and workplaces, and have higher efficiency in the same working hours.”
"But in fact, just like the table I announced at the beginning, the heroes with good treatment only account for a small part. If the denominator is replaced by the ability of the world, the number is even more pitiful, but it is regarded as a representative."
"It is true that there are many people with powerful abilities, but the vast majority of mutants have no ability to bring convenience to their lives and daily life, and they have to be forced to raise their expectations and even the employment threshold just by having ability. The social convention formed under prejudice is already a major malice to mutants."
"Among ordinary people, no one would insist that physically fit people must learn to be smart, and people with good music will be good at painting. If a certain talent is outstanding, it will definitely be able to rely on it to achieve success, but it does not think so about mutants."
"It is difficult for mutants to engage in other industries, and those with slightly outstanding abilities will choose to become heroes."
"This ingenious creation of opposition cannot make people accuse them of prejudice and discrimination. On the contrary, it seems to be advocating from the opponent's position, but it has achieved their ultimate goal."
Lu Qingjia's voice was calm and soothing, with clear articulation, and every word reached everyone's ears, plus all kinds of evidence that appeared on the big screen along with his words and rhythm.
Those accustomed concepts have been impacted at this moment. It is not that no one has discovered this, and it is not that when no one has self-reflected, they have admitted their envy and jealousy towards mutants.
Because no matter how you look at it, mutants with abilities seem to be higher beings compared to normal people.
Many people think that this conventional mentality is the inferiority of human beings, and it is true, but at this time, the Sludge Master uses evidence to tell them.
This inferiority is actually guided by people deliberately, and there is a hand that controls and guides everything many years ago.
Ordinary audiences are still like this, and the other mutants are even more angry when they recall what they have experienced over the years.
At this time, they no longer regarded the Sludge as a terrorist, but felt that he was a revolutionary who was about to lead the reform.
For a while, the trend of the Internet has changed drastically, and countless people have begun to complain about the unequal encounters they have received because of their abilities.
"I just put a little flame on my fingertips, except for the convenience of lighting a cigarette, and I don't smoke. Why do I have to be brushed off by not being good enough when I look for a job? Obviously, my resume is high. In their eyes, As a mutant, if I don’t get admitted to a famous national school, I’m a waste. My colleagues in the company caused fires due to improper operation, and they all saw them with their own eyes, and they turned out to be blind and had to investigate me first.”
"I can only make a little dirt bag. I have never dared to get too close to people since I was a child. If anyone near me fell down, I would first wonder if it was a prank."
"Yeah, you should work overtime, otherwise you are a capable person. You are recruited for better efficiency. If you do as much work as others, what's the point of asking you? Hehe, how about your salary? Won't you give me two of them?"
After realizing that the unfair treatment for many years was a man-made conspiracy, the mutants couldn't sit still. Many people even came out of their homes, made banners with high efficiency, and started parades.
People living near the venue also surrounded the venue, and asked the association to make an argument.
Countless people watched this scene.
The atmosphere that was already like boiling water was thrown by Lu Qingjia with another bomb.
"Some people want to enjoy the series of benefits brought by the evolution of mutants' genes, and they must also keep the mutants in captivity, and they have been creating confrontations within mutants over the years to ensure that mutants will not unite to fight for their due interests. ."
"However, there is one question I think everyone will be curious about. Although the number of mutants is small, it is relative to the total population."
"Mutants will also marry, have children and reproduce offspring. Although mutants are discriminated against in their studies and work, they are very popular in the marriage and love market. Many people also hope that their offspring can become new human beings after evolution."
"However, why is there a legal provision that there are no restrictions on the number of births between mutants and mutants, and there are even subsidies and rewards. Ordinary people and ordinary people, or mutants and ordinary people do not have this treatment."
"This regulation was once also evidence of the superiority of mutants going abroad. When it was first introduced, it caused dissatisfaction from all parties, but it was still enforced."
It is precisely for this reason that the proportion of mutants marrying ordinary people is not large. After all, marrying similar people can bring good living conditions through subsidies alone. The relative benefits of marrying ordinary people are much less. After all, the essence of marriage is economic behavior.
"Why do those people limit the living space of mutants instead of joining the genes of evolved humans? Are they not worried that if mutants appear after their offspring intermarry with mutants, they will be trapped in the unfavorable conditions they created?"
"Of course the people at the top are at the top whether they are mutants or ordinary people, but I just want to prove to everyone why they don't have this idea that ordinary people do."
It was said that Lu Qingjia showed a malicious smile to the camera, and the top management of the association and those top capitals immediately realized that it was not good.
However, they were controlled by others and could not stop Lu Qingjia from uncovering the truth they most wanted to hide.
"Because they have tried it, it is impossible for ordinary people's genes to give birth to capable offspring. Only the combination of capable and capable offspring can produce capable offspring."
"Someone has done statistics on this, but they have been restricted from publishing."
"Understood? The so-called heroic idol, the so-called advantage of the able, the so-called halo in the center of the world that has attracted much attention."
"Even if it is the top heroes here, and the king of heroes produced by the game of the century."
"All are despicable dignitaries who envy the genes of the able-bodied. When they can't get it, they want to use the ability as an opportunity to bring major development dividends, and ensure that their dominance will not be replaced by better humans. All abilities The worms are kept in captivity in the social farms they control, and the worms that are jealous and wary create the clowns that everyone sees in Su."
"Nonsense!" The president of the Hero Association immediately stood up and retorted loudly: "It's ridiculous, do you think we can control national policies and the entire social ideology?"
"Of course!" Lu Qingjia said decisively: "If the capitalist country sponsors politicians, the other party must fulfill his promise to pass a bill that is powerful for you when he comes to power."
"To create turmoil in the social country, let the above give priority to solving the social hidden dangers caused by those who are capable. You quickly enter the situation, and the country tries to achieve the efficiency at that time, and eventually the minority groups are oppressed."
As he said that, he smiled maliciously at the chairman and the old men: "So you think, why are the military troops here today?"
