Zuo Dao Becomes a God Starting from American Horror

Chapter 195 Changes in the International Relationship of Cano in Two and a Half Years
Time came to 1995.

Two and a half years have passed since Louis went into seclusion.

In the past two and a half years, many changes have taken place in the outside world. First, in the United States, the benefits of outlasting Russia have begun to show.

In the past four or five years, American hegemony has begun to spread to the whole world. It has become known as the world's hegemon, relying on military force and using oil and gold as leverage. Its economy has become the world's number one.

In this situation, even with the reduction of welfare benefits, the people at the bottom of society have shown some resistance in the face of the benefits of prioritizing the economy, and are no longer as destitute as they were when welfare benefits were first reduced.

Especially after the neon lights were removed, a large number of jobs were created, and for a time, America was like a blazing fire, flourishing and prosperous.

The lighthouse of the world shines brightly across the globe, attracting a large influx of people from other countries.

As the pie grew bigger, domestic capitalists naturally reaped the rewards and achieved comprehensive development.

Orlando.

David, dressed in a black suit, straightened his tie and then walked out of the house.

Compared to two and a half years ago, their home has been expanded and now resembles a private villa, complete with a swimming pool, viewing platform, and garden.

Upon arriving at the private parking garage, Emma, ​​dressed in all black with long, flowing hair, exuding a cool and confident aura, was holding her phone, seemingly doing something.

“Emma, ​​we should go. By the way, did you invite Carrie along?” David asked as he got into the driver’s seat and fastened his seatbelt.

"Yes, I called her. Carrie is already out waiting." Emma closed the forum and replied calmly.

Compared to two and a half years ago, Emma's face has become more refined, and she doesn't have the large pores and declining appearance that often plagues Western women; she still looks youthful and beautiful.

"Oh, okay, let's set off now."

David smiled and started the car, seemingly unconcerned by his daughter's indifferent tone.

My daughter has been recognized as an outstanding student at school for the past two years, and has even given speeches on behalf of the students as the student council president on many occasions. She is undoubtedly an excellent student.

And he has already received an acceptance letter from MIT.

His character is also impeccable. When he was the student council president at school, he united his classmates, organized various activities, and often led his classmates to volunteer. He is undoubtedly an outstanding student.

As for his daughter's tone, David attributed it to teenage rebellion, as well as her longing for and resentment towards Louis.

After all, that kid Louis... tsk!

As David drove, he gritted his teeth, his thoughts drifting.

Louis disappeared two and a half years ago after saying he had to leave for a while. If I hadn't called to ask, I would have been really worried.

He's been mostly out of the public eye for the past two and a half years, probably busy with his mystical affairs, only showing up during the New Year.

However, in the past two and a half years, he has also come to see one side of Louis.

So this kid isn't perfect after all.

For example, when it comes to women, he's incredibly scummy.

Besides her own daughter, there's Carrie next to her, and two more at school. I heard that Hailey, whom they brought back before, seems to have some connection as well. The most crucial thing is that they all know each other!

When he discovered this, he was completely stunned. Four women and one man? And they all had very different personalities, which didn't seem like they could get along peacefully.

What are we playing?

Are young people spending money like this now?

Hmm, that seems about right. People are really getting creative these days.

After thinking it over several times, he decided to just let it go and ignore it.

Louis was like his own son to him. He was actually quite happy that his own pig had taken a few more cabbages, especially since the girls were all there voluntarily.

This undoubtedly proves Louis's charm.

As for Emma and Louis...

He was no longer a person of this era, and there were some things he couldn't control. As long as he was sure that Louis was a good boy, that was enough for him; he didn't want to worry about anything else.

However, he was still somewhat worried, not about his daughter; he trusted Louis's character and abilities.

He was worried about Louis.

My own daughter is fine; she's a good girl with a good personality. But what about the other three girls?

Are you sure you won't have any relationship problems and end up killing him one day?

"Alas, Louis, it's not good to be too greedy."

David muttered to himself.

Emma glanced at her foolish old father and rolled her eyes.

crunch--

The vehicle stops.

A woman with an exceptional presence stood on the street. She wore a black dress and sunglasses, her long black hair cascading down her shoulders. She was tall and slender, and her delicate skin seemed to shimmer faintly in the sunlight, making her look extremely beautiful.

"Carrie, get in the car."

“Okay, Uncle David.”

Click.

Carrie got into the car, put away her sunglasses, revealing her fair and delicate face and her dark and cold eyes.

If Emma has a petite feel and belongs to the dark contrast gothic style, then Carrie is a cool and mature woman, especially when her expressionless face is paired with her dark eyes, this feeling is even stronger.

Emma glanced at Carrie without saying anything, but simply moved to the side. Ever since Patricia's haunted house incident was disrupted, their relationship had become somewhat delicate.

Vehicles travel through the streets.

High-rise buildings, clean streets, vehicles passing by, and pedestrians hurrying by.

David drove all the way to the city center.

Here stands a building, with a brightly lit sign on top that flashes with colorful lights—Kano International.

Below this building, men and women in suits walked in and out with their heads held high and chests puffed out. A dozen security guards with stun batons stood guard at the entrance, their expressions serious and their eyes sharp as they looked ahead.

In front of the building, there were two long queues of people waiting to enter and look for jobs.

They were all people without higher education who wanted to apply for the basic positions offered by Cano International.

David and Emma got off the train and walked straight ahead, bypassing the line.

"Huh? Why are they cutting in line?"

"Don't move around, let's see if they get kicked out."

"Heh, last time two black people tried to cut in line, and they got stun guns on them. They don't care about your skin color."

"Tch, isn't this just racism? Why don't they just use stun guns on those white people..."

"Do you believe I'll beat you up?"

"..."

Under everyone's scrutinizing gaze, David simply showed his identification and led his men inside.

The security guard even bowed to David, appearing very respectful.

"Oh no, is that a senior executive of the company?"

"I didn't speak very loudly just now, did I?"

"..."

David was destined never to hear their voices.

He is now taking his daughter and Carrie up the elevator.

"Kano International, established just two years ago, is an international company mainly engaged in real estate, prison labor, textiles and clothing, mineral resource development, import and export, and is now moving into the fields of biomedicine and the Internet."

"If it weren't for Louis's connections, even if I sold my factory, I probably wouldn't have received such good treatment."

David exclaimed.

Cano International was established by the Cano family after they had laundered their assets. It integrated all the original Cano family businesses and assets from various families obtained from Michael, and is now one of the top five corporations in Florida.

There is still some foundation and accumulation needed to become a big capitalist, such as becoming a leader in a certain industry, or controlling a large number of jobs that affect people's livelihoods, and becoming a "too big to fail" enterprise.

We're still quite far off, but we've made it into the queue.

The Orlando location is Cano International's largest branch, headquartered in Miami.

David holds a senior position in one of the departments here and owns a small number of shares, giving him a relatively high status. As he said, if it weren't for his connection with Louis, his few factories, which could barely be considered capitalist enterprises, wouldn't have received such good treatment.

"Carrie, you must do well in the interview. Although you have Louis's influence, your academic qualifications are not high, which is a weakness."

"I understand, Uncle David."

Carrie didn't refute, but simply replied calmly.

David then turned to Emma and scolded her, "And Emma, ​​don't be careless either. It's fine for you to come here for an internship, but why do you insist on going to the grassroots level? Don't you know that's very tiring? Why can't you come to my department?"

Emma shook her head. "Dad, you know I'm happy to help others. This internship is just to experience life, not to make money."

David nodded, feeling both relieved and heartbroken.

"Alright, you're all grown up now, so I won't say anything more. Just think it through yourselves."

Soon, the elevator arrived at the thirteenth floor.

After making arrangements with the two men, David returned directly to his department. Although his department wasn't particularly important, there was still a lot of work to do, and he had to handle many factory-related matters, so he wasn't exactly relaxed.

Carrie and Emma exchanged a glance, then went straight back to the elevator and swiped their ID cards.

"drop!"

"Verification successful, lab access card issued."

"Access to levels 20 and above has been granted."

The elevator suddenly rose to the twentieth floor or higher.

Click.

Before your eyes are rows of clean white laboratories, the floors of which are made of a special alloy. If Carno International did not have its own mineral resources business, it would be impossible to produce such a large-scale alloy.

Inside the passageway, people in white coats hurried by, while janitors pushed carts carrying various items: corpses, blood, plants, animals…

Among them were even some strange creatures: enormous sharks that were cut in half, mutated wolves, mutated pigs, and ferocious piranhas with sharp teeth and claws...

Besides these, the most eye-catching were the defense personnel, each with a blank expression, bulging muscles, and all of them were at least 1.9 meters tall.

They were armed with guns, and the bullets in the magazines could be vaguely seen gleaming silver. They also wore peach wood cross pendants on their chests.

The most unusual of them were the even fewer personnel who were completely shrouded in a layer of black armor. These personnel did not participate in patrols; instead, they all stood motionless in front of the cubic laboratories, like robots.

Strangely, they seemed not to see Emma and Carrie at all, showing no reaction whatsoever.

Enter a laboratory.

A researcher immediately came over. "Miss Carrie, the test subjects have been waiting for you for a long time. Please go over there quickly."

Upon arriving at the center of the laboratory, an old man saw Carrie and immediately began his experiment.

Carrie was there to bring up the rear.

Accompanied by flashes of electricity.

The liposuction leech, which had changed drastically in the center, began to wriggle violently, and its body gradually shrank.

Fifteen minutes later.

"Okay! That's it!"

"Experiment 6,151, successful!"

"Oh oh oh!"

"Yes!"

"awesome!"

Everyone in the laboratory cheered.

The prototype of this laboratory was a group within the Rebirth underground base. Later, because mutated creatures such as liposuction leeches were beneficial to the medical industry, they were transferred to the newly established Cano International.

After two and a half years, we finally succeeded.

The old man was very excited; he could finally go back to the base.

Only the base is the true research center; demons, evil spirits, and alien monsters can only be studied there.

And here?
It's just a place that studies mutated organisms.

This is not a place for truly ambitious researchers!
"Very good. Everyone's bonus this year will be doubled, they will receive an additional ten internal points, and an extra month of annual leave. Go back and relax."

Arsen Canorang, who appeared out of nowhere, spoke in a loud voice.

The joy on everyone's faces became increasingly evident.

Bonuses are one aspect, but the most important thing is those ten internal points. Within Kano International, the real hard currency is points, which can be exchanged for US dollars, positions, beautiful women, weapons, enhancement potions (witchcraft potions), and so on.

You could say it's an unconventional wishing spot!
It's easy to imagine how generous the reward will be.

At this moment, Arsen came up to Emma and the others, and they greeted each other.

"Emma, ​​let's put all of these away for now."

"it is good."

Emma made a hand seal, circulating her internal energy, and pointed out something out of thin air.

"receive!"

Suddenly, a dark black brocade pouch appeared in mid-air above the laboratory. As it opened its mouth, an imperceptible suction force appeared, instantly drawing all the liposuction leeches from the dozens of glass enclosures inside into it, leaving none behind.

The bag didn't swell up at all, as if it existed in another space, which was quite amazing.

Arsen watched this scene with envy, marveling at the mysterious power.

This is the mysterious power.

No matter how many times I watch it, I am still amazed.

Unfortunately, I'm too old to practice properly, and I haven't been able to feel any Qi yet. I only feel a bit stronger.

It's unlikely that we'll possess such power in the future.

Fine, I'll just focus on managing the family business.

Now that the side effects of liposuction leeches have been eliminated, the family has acquired a trump card that allows them to establish themselves in the medical field and finally officially enter the biomedical industry.

Arsen, whose mind was racing with thoughts, looked away and said to the two of them, "Little Louis is probably coming out of seclusion again. This time he probably won't go into seclusion. The other two children have already gone. Aren't you going?"

Carrie: "I'll come over after I'm done here."

Emma smiled, shook the bag, and said, "My mission is complete. I can go now."

As he spoke, he glanced at Carrie.

He walked outside with a victorious smile.

Carrie snorted coldly, closed her eyes, and released her telekinetic power to monitor and suppress the entire building.

She's not here for an interview.

Although the Kano International Building is not as dangerous as the Rebirth Underground Base, its defenses are weaker. If those mutated creatures were to cause trouble, it would be disastrous. Therefore, they had no choice but to send her, this humanoid weapon of mass destruction, to guard it.

Over the years, we've dealt with quite a few problems, such as those extremely ferocious mutated piranhas, which were caught by company staff in Lake Victoria, which was converted into a water park.

After bringing it back, due to some overly sanctimonious people, it almost flowed out through the pipes. It was only by cutting off all the pipes that the situation was successfully averted.

Arsen shook his head, not wanting to comment on the rivalry between the girls, but feeling sorry for little Louis.

But he's not so pitiful either; it's his own fault for being so unrestrained and attracting so much trouble.

Arsen, holding the lab report, headed towards his office. Next, he would join forces with Devourer, a company located on Wall Street, to officially enter the biomedical industry.

It's no longer just a small-scale affair!
Devourer has developed exceptionally well in the past two years, becoming a well-known international venture capital firm with substantial cash flow. Partnering with them would greatly increase the success rate.

Moreover, the other party's boss is Louis Jr., so they are even more trustworthy.

"We've finally opened up the biomedical field, but is the internet industry really viable? It screwed over a lot of people a couple of years ago."

Yassen muttered to himself as he walked into the office and began calling Jordan.

……

Rebirth prison.

Over the past two and a half years, the prison has changed a lot, with its overall area doubling in size, but large tracts of farmland remain around it, filled with crops and straw.

The prison has many more facilities, but the number of criminals has also increased significantly.

In fact, while the United States has reached its peak in recent years, it has also brought many side effects, such as lax laws, increased immigration, and a rapid increase in drug trafficking and violent groups.

This has led to some social disorder and a surge in crime rates.

However, this has benefited the prisons, as a large amount of funds have poured in, and there are more talented people available, making them extremely convenient to use.

Inside the prison.

An area entangled in electrical wire mesh.

A blood-red giant dog, its body reeking of blood and adorned with fangs and massive claws, lay on the ground taking a short rest. Around it, a dense array of guards stood watch.

And at the elevator below this area.

Maria, dressed in black and white, and Madison, in a gray tracksuit, stood waiting.

Maria looked quite different from two and a half years ago; she had a better figure, her face was more refined, and her eyes were especially bright and expressive.

It appears somewhat gentle, yet subtly possesses a strange, inexplicable madness; the two qualities combined create a distorted effect.

Madison, on the other hand, was much simpler.

One word—hot!
She has a curvaceous figure, bright red lips, long flowing golden hair, and a seemingly carefree smile on her face; she clearly enjoys having fun.

A typical popular American girl.

Now, both of them waited in silence.
