Almost immediately after the anniversary of the Minister of Works' family's tragic death, even bigger news arrived.
This shock not only affected Qin Huanyu, but almost the entire world.
Rama, a wealthy merchant from Indian County, is suspected of various heinous crimes, including drug manufacturing, drug trafficking, and murder. The evidence against him is conclusive, but this is just the beginning.
The real main event was the decision made by the Holy Zhou Kingdom to completely annihilate Rama's gang after he retreated to the mountains to resist to the bitter end. The Kingdom declared that no one would be spared, no prisoners would be taken, and no surrenders would be accepted. The entire process was broadcast live globally! This was to demonstrate the Holy Zhou Kingdom's determination to eradicate drugs!
Chapter 123 The Globally Broadcast Annihilation War
In Indian County, in a remote mountain forest far from the city.
The official government of the Holy Zhou Kingdom broadcast the operation to eliminate drug lord Rama live to the world, and Rama himself saw it on his mobile phone from his mountain stronghold.
This made Rama very angry.
He brandished his pistol, loudly urging his somewhat panicked underlings to cheer him on:
"Brothers, you've all seen it, right? Those bastards from the authorities have already said they won't take any survivors, prisoners, or accept surrenders! So brothers, don't have any more illusions! We have no choice but to fight! Pick up your guns! Killing one is a win, killing two is a bonus! Let those soldiers know we're not to be trifled with!"
"Wagarakura!"
Despair can drive people mad, and with Rama's words, his men were truly roused. They raised their automatic rifles and shouted in their local dialects, ready to fight to the death against the Holy Zhou army that came to annihilate them.
But what Rama never expected was that the official live stream of the Holy Zhou Kingdom had already begun, and the scene of him giving his underlings a pep talk was also broadcast live in high definition at close range, as if he had an invisible photographer following him.
After finishing his speech, Rama finally realized this. In anger, he opened fire in all directions, accidentally wounding two of his loyal henchmen. However, he still did not disrupt the official live broadcast of the Holy Zhou Kingdom, which amazed everyone watching the broadcast.
In the official live stream of the Holy Zhou Kingdom, there was also a commentator, a stunningly beautiful woman who had almost never appeared in public before.
This beautiful commentator was clearly from the military of the Holy Zhou Kingdom. She was wearing a black stockings and a bodycon skirt, a female senior officer's uniform with the rank of colonel on her shoulders. She had a charming appearance and a sweet voice, but her words were powerful and resolute, and she exuded a dashing and confident aura.
Faced with Rama's arrogant pronouncements and incompetent rage, the US military officer commentator's face was full of disdain:
"What a foolish drug lord... What era are we living in? Still thinking about face-to-face gunfights with soldiers in the mountains? Killing one to break even, killing two to make a profit? What a joke! I can tell you all right now that there will be no casualties in today's operation. These criminals will be crushed like powerless ants! You will even have the opportunity to participate!"
"What a cool female officer! She's both charming and handsome, I love her!"
Qin Huanyu, who was also watching the live stream, couldn't help but sigh.
No one was home at the moment, and she really wanted to watch the live stream and chat with people, so she naturally took out her phone to send a message to someone in the capital:
[Hey hey hey hey hey, did you watch that live stream about taking down the drug lords? That female officer in the live stream was amazing! She's so young to be a colonel, she must have some connections, right? Do you know her?]
The message was quickly marked as read, but no direct reply was given.
Almost half a minute later, Yi Youyou finally replied with a sentence that Qin Huanyu could practically smell the sourness through the screen:
[You're such a gold digger! You're really interested in her, huh? Is she really that captivating?]
'Haha, Youyou's jealous! She definitely has feelings for me too! Yay!'
Qin Huanyu chuckled inwardly, but quickly typed out words of comfort:
【You're charming too, Youyou. I'm just more interested in her, but I'd love to take Youyou home.】
You're dreaming!
This time, Yi Youyou replied quickly, but she was still clearly still sulking.
[I do know that bitch in the live stream... Didn't I tell you before? I've never been the school beauty in my life, it was always someone else who stole her spot, it's her! Her name is Nangong Yue, her family has served in the military for generations, and her great-grandfather even sacrificed his life in the War of Resistance Against Japan.]
[So they're descendants of General Nangong, no wonder.]
Qin Huanyu sighed, then asked curiously:
[By the way, since you're so familiar with her, do you know what methods she uses to constantly monitor Luo Mo and his group? Is it some kind of supernatural power?]
No, she used purely technological means.
Yi Youyou remained silent for a while before saying unhappily:
[If you, Ayu, really got to know her, you two might actually get along very well… She's currently the most talented and top-tier drone expert in the country. Back in junior high, she was already building DIY drones using various small parts she bought online. After graduating from university, she went to a military research institute to develop a miniature drone that could disguise itself as an insect, specifically for intelligence gathering. It seems she's achieved some success by now.]
[A drone that can disguise itself as an insect? That's really impressive. No wonder Rama and his gang were completely baffled by being livestreamed.]
Qin Huanyu sighed again.
Indeed, in those tropical forests, who would care about, or even be able to care about, the little insects on the leaves?
Just as Nangong Yue boldly declared in the live stream, this annihilation battle was destined to be a one-sided crushing and humiliation, with the technological gap between the two sides being too great, like gods fighting mortals.
In the live broadcast room, the military of the Holy Zhou Kingdom still did not take action. Instead, Nangong Yue once again read out the various heinous crimes of the Luo Mo gang and announced that all of them were sentenced to death and to be executed immediately without any leniency.
After deliberately waiting for more than 20 minutes, until the number of viewers in the live stream exceeded 10 billion, and many foreigners in addition to citizens of the Holy Zhou Kingdom also entered the live stream, Nangong Yue, whom everyone thought was just a talker, actually took out a communicator and issued orders like a commander:
"The action begins."
Then the live stream feed started switching.
The live stream of Rama's incompetent rage turned into a focus on a gunman patrolling the edge of the stronghold with an automatic rifle.
At the same time, Nangong Yue's sweet voice rang out again, just like a game commentator:
"Look, we've spotted a lone drug dealer."
"For such a heinous bastard, what do you all think would be the most effective way to execute him?"
"A, let him be engulfed in flames, repent while being burned, and finally turn to ashes."
"B, may justice descend from heaven and smash his head in!"
"C, chemical torture. Use biological weapons on him and let him die slowly in pain and itching all over his body."
These three options popped up in front of all viewers in the live stream, and everyone could choose freely.
It seems many people felt that killing drug dealers too quickly wasn't satisfying, hence the fewest choice was B. Meanwhile, biological weapons seemed ultimately inhumane, so A was the most popular choice, exceeding 50%.
"It seems everyone has made their decision... Alright, let's inflict the punishment of burning this lone drug dealer alive as the start of the eradication operation."
Nangong Yue's sweet voice rang out again, followed by a cool snap of her fingers.
Immediately, a bomb fell from the sky, which was invisible to the naked eye, and landed right next to the gunman, deliberately not killing him instantly.
But if it doesn't kill you outright, it will be even worse. This is a white phosphorus bomb, and it's a white phosphorus bomb with a strong adhesive added. Once the burning white phosphorus sticks to the human body after the explosion, it is almost impossible to remove. Even jumping into the water won't help. The only outcome is being burned alive.
[Good! Good! Burn it! This is the fate of bastards who dare to manufacture and sell drugs!]
The white phosphorus bomb burned too quickly; it should have suffered more!
I regret it; I should have chosen option 3.
There were no restrictions on bullet comments and the comment section in the live stream, and everyone quickly started discussing it.
Of course, there were also those who held different opinions, mostly foreigners.
[My God, the people of Zhou are so cruel! Even criminals shouldn't be burned alive! Have they no human rights?]
[Exactly! This ancient country is utterly barbaric! We are the civilized society!]
Such remarks naturally provoked dissatisfaction among the citizens of the Holy Zhou Kingdom, who immediately responded with a rebuttal:
Are you all idiots? Talking about human rights when it comes to drug dealers? No wonder your country's kids are using addictive psychedelic drugs! All you self-righteous people are idiots!
[Hilarious! They're definitely jealous of us. I've heard that some countries' weak armies can't even beat drug dealers and gangs, and their presidents can be assassinated. How dare they speak ill of drug dealers?]
While the two sides, both domestic and international, were engaged in a war of words online over this matter, the crackdown operation, which had already officially begun, was also in full swing.
Just as Nangong Yue had said at the beginning, it was a one-sided crushing defeat. The drug cartel members didn't even know where the enemy was until they died, let alone kill one person to make up for it.
The latest insect-shaped drones have long been deployed throughout the mountains and forests, providing a clear view of every member of the drug cartel and guiding another batch of drones above the clouds.
Military drones, typically only about 1 meter in diameter, are invisible and inaudible to the naked eye when flying at an altitude of 1,000 meters. However, these drones can pinpoint the location of every member of a drug cartel by using ground-based insect drones for tracking.
Various kinds of bombs rained down.
They have white phosphorus incendiary bombs, which can burn him alive amidst screams, just like they executed the first gunman.
It has steel ball fragmentation bullets that, upon airburst, can shoot out a large number of steel balls like a shower of flowers, riddling all members of the drug cartel within range with holes.
There are also biological and chemical bombs that are banned from use against humans internationally. The toxic fumes after the explosion can cause people to itch all over their bodies and ooze pus. When they die, almost all of their skin is ulcerated, which is extremely tragic.
Even with such cruel weapons, the Holy Zhou Kingdom uses them without any burden, because to them, the members of the drug cartel are no longer human, so why can't they use biological and chemical weapons that are prohibited from being used on humans on them?
Indeed, this is the case. Those protesting online are all foreigners, while the citizens of Saint Zhou are all applauding and cheering, saying it's awesome, and some even wish they could personally control drones to drop bombs and kill a few drug lord gang scum for fun.
However, the authorities actually fulfilled the people's wish.
Just as the annihilation operation was about halfway through, Nangong Yue's sweet voice rang out in the live stream again:
"How about it, everyone? Isn't it incredibly exciting to wipe out a drug cartel like this? Want to join in and give it a try? Want to experience what it's like to personally control a drone to take down scum? If you're interested, scan the QR code at the bottom of the screen now to download our dedicated app. As long as you pass a test, you'll have the chance to actually control a drone and experience the battlefield firsthand!"
Qin Huanyu quickly glanced at the bottom of the live stream screen, where a QR code had indeed appeared.
She scanned a QR code with her phone and downloaded an app quickly. Once opened, it was a drone piloting simulation test, which was like playing a game, albeit a more complex one.
This was no challenge for Qin Huanyu. She simply unsealed the alloy tentacles behind her, connected them to her phone, and used her mind to control the devices, easily achieving a perfect score on all levels.
Qin Huanyu thought she would finally get to experience playing with the drones on-site, but she didn't expect that she would have to rely on luck to draw a chance in the end. She didn't get a chance.
"hateful!"
Disappointed, Qin Huanyu sealed the alloy tentacles back into tattoos, pouting and sticking out her cheeks.
"What's so great about it? It's just a drone. I'll make a few myself to play with later! I don't care at all!"
Just as there were unlucky individuals like Qin Huanyu who passed the assessment with perfect scores but didn't get a spot, there were also lucky ones who passed the assessment and were selected.
Soon, these lucky winners started showing off in the live chat.
[I won! Haha, I won! My drone is fully loaded with incendiary bombs! I spotted an enemy! Watch me blow him up... Hit! Haha, awesome! This is way more fun than any game I've ever played!]
[Me too! My machine is loaded with BBs and fragmentation rounds. Guys, wait for me to find a bunch of drug dealers and go for a pentakill, haha!]
[Mom, did you see that? You always say I'm useless because all I do is play games. Now I can proudly tell you, I'm good at games, and I can use my phone to control a drone at home to take down drug dealers! I passed the test, all thanks to the skills I honed through gaming... Maybe I should consider joining the army? The drone unit should accept me, right?]
More and more citizens of the Holy Zhou Kingdom passed the test in this way, experiencing the thrill of the battlefield firsthand at home using their mobile phones, and bringing divine punishment upon the gang of drug lord Rama.
The members of Rama's gang certainly considered escaping, but where could they go? Their every move had already been locked onto by the insect drones. How could humans outrun drones in the complex terrain of the mountains and forests? They had nowhere to escape and had to pay the price for their crimes, facing a painful death in despair.
After a live broadcast of the bandit suppression operation lasting over an hour, Luo Mo's bandit stronghold, which intended to put up a last-ditch resistance, was completely wiped out.
All of his most loyal gunmen, numbering over a thousand, were killed in incredibly gruesome ways. Yet, he alone survived, unharmed by any bombs. The only wound on his body was from a fall he sustained while fleeing in panic.
But Rama did not feel lucky; he felt only helplessness, despair, and fear.
The Holy Zhou Kingdom will certainly not let him go. The reason he has been kept alive until now is because the death he is about to face will be even more painful.
Sure enough, when only Luo Mo remained in the stronghold, all the apps that ordinary people used to control the drones via their mobile phones automatically disconnected. They even gave different scores to each person's previous actions after exiting the control interface, just like a game level completion settlement.
At the counterfeit site, four significantly larger drones no longer hovered high in the air, but descended directly to within about 10 meters of Rama.
Enraged and desperate, Rama opened fire with his automatic rifle, but all four drones were heavily armed and could not be easily shot down by an automatic rifle.
As Rama's magazine emptied, four steel cables were simultaneously fired from four heavily armed drones toward Rama. The drones then crisscrossed in the air and quickly bound Rama tightly.
Rama tried to struggle, but the four heavily armed drones simultaneously discharged electricity, stunning Rama and then lifting him back into the air, flying away into the distance.
"Oh! This is great, I want one too!"
Qin Huanyu, who witnessed this scene on the screen, had a bright look in her eyes and sent another message to Yi Youyou:
[Youyou, could you introduce me to Miss Nangong Yue? I'm really interested in... her drones. I'd love to get a few to play with.]
[Suspicion.jpg]
Yi Youyou first replied with an emoji before continuing to type:
[Are you really only interested in the drone? And not that little bitch?]
[Of course not! What's more fun than a drone? While Miss Nangong Yue is indeed a very charming woman, I'm currently more interested in her drone!]
Qin Huanyu quickly expressed her opinion.
【Humph. 】
Yi Youyou sent another disgusted emoji before saying:
"So, which drone have you got your eye on? You don't need to come and meet her in person; I'll go to her and buy it for you... After all, we're old classmates, so this is something I can easily do."
[Of course, I want those insect-shaped miniature drones! And I also want that heavily armed drone that comes last! The more the merrier, Youyou, buy as many as you can! If you don't have enough money, I'll mine some more ore these next couple of days to make up the difference!]
Qin Huanyu was not polite at all.
"Okay, she just made such a big splash, she must be pretty busy these days. I'll go find her when she's free in a few days and help you buy a drone," Yi Youyou replied.
[So, You still don't want to introduce her to me, huh... Are you jealous after all?]
Qin Huanyu couldn't resist teasing Yi Youyou again.
