The Devil Comes to America
Chapter 357: Chaos in New York
Chapter 357: Chaos in New York
The next day, New York was full of busyness.
Busy with all kinds of things.
The busiest among them are the maintenance workers of various power companies.
They need to restore power to New York.
Yes, New York's power system exploded.
For these power companies, whoever has their lines repaired first will gain endless wealth!
Making money from natural disasters and man-made calamities is an old tradition of these capitalists.
Television stations across the country began to converge on New York, but there was no other way because, due to the impact of the thunderstorm, a large amount of information could not be transmitted.
People from Manhattan began to flock to Queens in large numbers. Manhattan was the center of the disaster, and all the electronic equipment there was almost scrapped.
It took until the day after the natural disaster for a large amount of information to appear.
The biggest news on the first day was that the New York Stock Exchange decided to close for a week due to a natural disaster.
This thing is a serious financial bomb.
It's not even just America's own.
Market liquidity was suspended, investments were trapped, and the financial market experienced unprecedented volatility.
But if it weren't for the rich people's many connections, news about the New York Stock Exchange would have been all over the place before any other news had even come out of New York.
Among them, the picture of the New York Stock Exchange almost collapsed and the various parts scattered inside were the most widely circulated.
Of course, what is surprising is that as soon as these things happened, various well-known economists came out to refute the rumors, saying that although there were losses, it was not a big problem.
Many wealthy people also said that it was not a big deal.
Retail investors are cursing, but the rich don’t seem to care at all.
But what about the actual situation?
They care more than anybody else.
Even Dake was the same. He was cursing in his office at this moment: "God damn New York City Hall! Don't they know how important Wall Street is? And it's not well maintained. That place has been built for many years! Don't they care about the lives of those Jews?"
But in an interview with reporters, Dak said: "I don't think this is a problem. Wall Street has perfect response measures."
Because these wealthy people understand who has the most money among them?
It's them.
Even if they want to kill someone now, they have to act calmly.
Because only when they think everything is fine can they calm the hearts of retail investors. If all the retail investors run away, how can this financial game be played?
It can be said that everyone is tied to the stock market car, and no matter how hard it is, they can only grit their teeth and swallow it.
And as pictures of New York appeared one after another the next day.
What New Yorkers are most concerned about is the closure of the subway and the Brooklyn Bridge, because it concerns their own vital interests.
Manhattan, the district that should have spoken out the most and was the most unlucky, was hit the hardest and all its electronic equipment was destroyed, so it didn't even have a chance to speak for a short period of time.
These are all complaints from New Yorkers.
And because the purple thunder tribulation was the last to appear, in fact, before that tribulation appeared, the tsunami, lightning pillars, and doomsday-like scenes over New York had already been posted.
The benefits of having an information terminal for each person are clearly evident at this time.
What other states in the United States were most concerned about was the earliest tsunami, the one that destroyed coastal ports and collapsed the Statue of Liberty.
What they care about is not the fall of free will, but whether what is shown in doomsday movies is real?
Even in New York City itself, there has been a large-scale panic buying in supermarkets, and even zero-dollar shopping has been carried out regardless of skin color.
Xiunuo himself did not expect that destroying the Statue of Liberty was just one of his check-in actions to make up the numbers, and it was the one that caused the least damage to America among all the check-in points.
His focus has actually always been on the New York Stock Exchange, because if something happens there, it will definitely cause all kinds of unrest.
But now it seems that the Statue of Liberty is a greater threat to America.
As for where the NYPD is, they're all on the streets.
Xiunuo's spiritual sense swept across New York and found that there were police officers in many doomsday cults.
But there is one thing Xiunuo still doesn't understand.
The tail of the plane is stuck on top of the New World Trade Center. The fire started from the top and is now extending all the way downwards. There are a lot of fire trucks waiting nearby, but why haven't they seen anyone going in to put out the fire?
On the third day, after electricity was finally restored in some places, the stability that New York City Hall had expected did not come.
Instead, even greater riots broke out.
Because of this time, all kinds of rumors have been flying around.
When people first saw the collapse of the Brooklyn Bridge, some people thought that it was a bridge over a hundred years old, so it should just collapse.
After seeing the Empire State Building sinking into the ground, some people were still complaining, saying that it was not possible to dig so many subways, and that something might happen.
After all, there are several subway lines at the bottom of the Empire State Building.
Besides, who cares what the Empire State Building looks like now? The money scattered on the streets and the open bank vault doors are both more important than this building falling into the pit.
When people saw a burning plane stuck on the top of the New World Trade Center, many of them rushed into gun stores to buy guns.
But soon someone noticed something was wrong?
This plane looks like a military plane! It's our own plane!
The ruins of the Statue of Liberty and the emergence of many doomsday remarks in the past two days that feel like spring has arrived have made the people who have been educated happily believe that the end of the world is coming!
So, starting from the third day, all kinds of crimes were committed on the streets of New York.
The people who only appear in movies discovered that the end of the world had come and started looting and smashing things, which happened almost everywhere in New York.
A large number of black people in several poor communities in Manhattan began to rob stores, especially after learning that all the cameras here were scrapped and most of the police cars were scrapped.
There is no way around it. Manhattan was the first to be hit hard, so it is inevitable that a large number of police cars will be out patrolling.
Some of the cars that didn't start may have been lucky or were in a garage deep enough in an underground garage to avoid the impact of the thunderstorm.
However, a car that is driving is 100% doomed.
The electronic security of those top wealthy people's apartments was also completely destroyed. Those with mechanical locks were fine, but the doors of those with smart locks were wide open.
The rich don't like to endure hardship, so they left the next day after they found something was wrong.
They can put pressure on the government.
Imagine there is an area where a large amount of wealth is hidden, but there is no surveillance and there is a serious shortage of police force and police cars. What will happen?
A large number of New York gangs and smart civilians began to pour into Manhattan. They carried weapons and began searching for their own wealth like doomsday scavengers.
NYPD officers from other areas began to enter Manhattan in large numbers in an attempt to stop the riots.
But the result was that the riots in other boroughs became even worse, while the situation in Manhattan did not improve much.
Because there is no surveillance, all police systems are scrapped, and the police radio stations that can be used are only used to report information after the police discover a problem.
But the problem is that there are too many speculators entering Manhattan.
And these speculators also discovered this problem, so they quickly reached a consensus.
As long as I kill the police, who will know that I killed the police?
So almost that afternoon, in the face of the huge wealth in Manhattan, the NYPD faced heavy casualties.
But the paralysis of the power system is not limited to this.
Because Xiunuo’s own karma is also increasing.
The advantage of this thing is that his demonic energy will increase even when he is lying down or sleeping as his karma appears.
The downside is that the next calamity will probably be even more severe.
The reason is very simple. In modern society, if there is no electricity, the disaster is unimaginable. This is when some circuits have been restored.
At this time, Xiunuo was on the top floor of an apartment. The apartment was expensive, but it was not the kind of apartment for the rich because it was not too big. However, the location was good and he could overlook New York, although Xiunuo did not need to live high to overlook New York.
But New York at this time did not become peaceful just because Xiunuo's catastrophe ended.
Xiu Nuo seriously blew up the New York Stock Exchange and destroyed a bridge and a statue.
At least the Empire State Building didn't collapse, but the World Trade Center was hit by the US military itself and it had nothing to do with us.
But now, New York seems to be invaded. Looking from the sky, black smoke and flashing flames can be seen everywhere.
The sound of New York City these days is no longer a metropolis, no longer a steel forest, and certainly not the American dream.
It was the sound of gunfire! It seemed like the sound of gunfire was happening all the time!
At this time, next to Xiu Nuo, a woman was standing respectfully.
If you look closely at the woman's appearance, you will find that she is very ordinary, but her skin is extremely delicate and her whole temperament has a cool feeling. If ordinary people see her, they will probably sink into her unconsciously.
Song Linlin, the woman who was thrown to New York by Xiu Nuo.
Perhaps some people have forgotten what the original stowaway team was made up of.
Wang Fugui is a smuggling agent, Quan Rui is a welfare prostitute, Zhao Hong is a murderer, there is also a dead bastard who sold his wife and daughter, then there is Song Linlin, a traitor to the country, and the remaining one is the predecessor of Master Xiu, a spy expelled from the CIA.
After Xiu Nuo planted the demon seeds in each of these people, they began to develop on their own.
Zhao Hong relies on killing, Quan Rui relies on harmony, and Song Linlin is special. Just like Master Xiu when he first came to this world, she relies on human violence and desire.
Master Xiu did that at the beginning because it was the easiest way.
I don’t know why Song Linlin did that.
After arriving in New York, Song Linlin developed rapidly.
In Los Angeles, many gangs were destroyed due to internal strife, and this guy played a big role in that.
New York is a city full of desire.
How many people who can come here have no ambition?
Whether they are gangsters, politicians, drug dealers or civilians, desire runs in their blood.
Of course, these things all have a unified name - the American Dream.
What Song Linlin has to do is to arouse their desires and let them strive for their dreams with all their strength until they are destroyed.
And she would appear at the last moment when those guys were about to burn themselves out, and take away their souls as her own nourishment.
When Xiu Nuo met Song Linlin, he discovered that her cultivation was the highest among those people.
Ever since Quan Rui started taking the high-end route, her network of contacts has expanded, her power has increased, and her cultivation speed has also slowed down.
At this time, Song Linlin said respectfully: "Now there are at least three gangster families entering Manhattan. In addition, there are a large number of biker gangs, drug dealers, kidney dealers, and human traffickers who have switched to being scavengers. There is no need to consider the homeless and poor. These people think this is their chance to make a lot of money."
"You've been dealing with them since you came to New York?"
"Of course not." Song Linlin said respectfully: "I also know some Jewish tycoons. This apartment was given to me by that guy. There are also some politicians. They all want to go further, but..."
"what?"
"After the incident in New York, they ran away very quickly." Song Linlin said, "For example, they gave me a house."
Xiunuo laughed: "What's wrong with him? Does he seem to concern you a lot?"
"She has big dreams." Song Linlin said, "At least she believes that her people should not only control the American economy. That guy is my key target for cultivation. I have helped her get rid of several guys who stood in her way, including her father."
Xiu Nuo raised his eyebrows: "What did she do?"
"She personally holds shares in some military-industrial enterprises, and has helped some of her own people take senior management positions in those enterprises. She also told me that they are actually cooperating with the military. But there is something else she didn't tell me, which I discovered on my own."
"what?"
"He has taken control of some officers and is actively sending people into the army."
Xiunuo smiled, very happily.
"This is indeed a person worth cultivating. I have to say that you are much better than Zhao Hong, the guy who had fun playing with a bunch of idiots."
Song Linlin said with disdain: "What can a murderer know?"
Xiuno did not comment, but simply asked, "What is the name of that Jew?"
"Erica Cohen."
Xiu Nuo was stunned: "Woman?"
"That's why I got along better with her, right? Boss, have you forgotten that when I first came to America, I was giving massages to some women in a massage parlor?"
"Uh, well, I just didn't expect it to be a woman."
Xiu Nuo looked at the situation in New York and asked, "How long do you think New York will remain in chaos?"
Song Linlin was silent for a moment, then asked, "How long do you think it should last?"
Xiu Nuo said calmly: "The longer the better."
"I see." Song Linlin suddenly laughed and said, "But boss, I don't need to do anything. The situation in New York will not be resolved in the short term."
The fact is just as Song Linlin said, New York will not get better in the short term.
At this moment in the Pentagon, Berlick was being questioned: "Tell me! Berlick! Tell me what to do!"
The Minister of Defense slammed the table and said, "That damn reconnaissance plane is still stuck on the top of the New World Trade Center! Everything on it has been burned!"
Bolick pursed his lips and said, "You should go to the director of the New York Fire Department."
"You think the government didn't look for them? But those bastards only moved things out from the lower floors! They just stopped the fire from burning down the entire building. Apart from that, they were unwilling to do anything else!"
Berlick said calmly, “Perhaps if the government gives them the money they should have given them twenty years ago, they will be willing to work.”
The defense minister was so angry that he laughed: "How about this, Berlick, you let the president say this? That was your fucking plane! One of our own planes crashed into that damn sensitive building! Because no one was willing to go up to clean up and rescue! As a result, now the whole world knows that our military plane crashed into our own building!"
Berlik was silent.
He couldn't refute that.
But who caused all this?
Given the situation in New York at the time, there might not have been any photos leaked even three days after the plane was inserted, let alone all kinds of rumors.
But because no one from the fire department wanted to go up and clean up those things, the whole world now knows about it.
But why are firefighters unwilling to work?
Isn’t it the case that last time, people tried their best to save the World Trade Center, but in the end, the firefighters were injured and became sick as a result. Didn’t you care about it?
Berlick himself didn't understand why it was so difficult to pay the hospital bills for those heroes who risked their lives for their country?
You see, something's wrong now.
And it wasn't just the New World Trade Center, the same thing happened to the Empire State Building which wasn't on fire.
Set up a cordon, then keep a close eye on it, and then...that's it.
Because the city hall is arguing with the group that owns the building. Those capitalists think that the building fell into the pit because of the subway and are demanding compensation from the city hall.
The city hall thinks you are talking bullshit. The subway has been built for many years and nothing happened. Why is it suddenly broken? Did you add something to the building or dig something down?
Anyway, the building has collapsed now, and both sides have their own opinions. Not to mention a solution, even the division of responsibilities has not been negotiated yet.
Berlik got a headache just thinking about these things.
The defense minister said with a dark face: "New York is in as much chaos as Mexico now! The NYPD's police force is not enough. Even if the state police and the National Guard were sent, it would not be enough. The people there are crazy."
He looked at Bolick: "Your super soldiers will handle the New World Trade Center issue! Don't tell me it's impossible. This is something you did, Bolick!"
Then, the defense minister looked at the others and said, "Maybe the army needs to go to New York to help."
The Marine commander became interested and asked, "Are we going to impose martial law?"
Before the defense minister could speak, Julia spoke up: "Blockade New York? Are you crazy? If you dare to blockade New York today, there will be a lot of capital flight from America tomorrow! They will have to transfer assets even if the Federal Reserve offers a high interest rate! Believe me. If you dare to do this, the people on Wall Street will hire mercenaries you can't even imagine to kill you!"
The Marine Corps commander curled his lips and said, "I just said it casually. But I'll make it clear in advance that this has nothing to do with us! The order came from Berkeley, the plane is an Army reconnaissance plane, and the pilot was trained by the Air Force."
Berlik looked at the Minister of Defense.
The defense minister said nothing.
They opened in a hurry and dispersed quickly. After all, there was only one thing they had to do now, which was to get rid of the plane that was stuck in the building!
When most people had left, Bolick suddenly said, "How about the pilot being a former Marine?"
"Do you still want to evade responsibility, Berlik?"
"Perhaps you don't know, sir." Bolick said, "Potion No. 20 has been successful. The data of the guy who participated in the experiment is extremely stable, and his body functions have returned to around years old."
The defense minister looked at Julia and said, "I think what Berlick said makes sense. After all, how can a real air force pilot not be able to control a plane?"
