Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start Chapter 1352

Chapter 1352: 1272, Unprecedented Disturbance Chapter 1352: 1272, Unprecedented Disturbance More fatal was the chaos among the civilians.

Unlike Blue Star, Fige Hub had no surveillance facilities, and public areas had no cameras.

Because the super AI Hymn existed, every resident in Fige Hub wore a bracelet.

Hymn monitored everyone's actions through the bracelets, making it impossible for any criminal activities to occur; thus, surveillance cameras were unnecessary.

But now, with the sudden disappearance of Hymn, crimes went unchecked, and without surveillance footage, there was no evidence!

Consequently, violent crimes began to surge throughout Fige Hub.

Assaults, group brawls, robberies, and public disorder… various violent crimes kept occurring.

Street-side unmanned shops became particularly targeted, with nearly every shop being looted.

And since these criminals were not being punished, they grew even more rampant!

Gradually, violent crimes spread, reaching every corner of every city in Fige Hub, and the entire Hub became exceedingly chaotic.

Moreover, there was no “police” department in Fige Hub.

Without police, public safety was unmanageable; terrifying violent crimes occurred one after another in various areas, growing increasingly severe!

Crime rates in all major cities were soaring.

At its most horrifying, some densely populated streets had corpses visible every few steps!

Social order completely collapsed, making survival itself a difficult task.

Such conditions had never occurred in the history of Fige Hub!

This terrifying chaos lasted for nearly two months.

Facing such a grim situation, the top powerhouses of Fige Hub naturally wouldn't stand idly by.

Led by 8 Stellar Grade existences, they contacted 873 Planet Level cultivators and held the first “Top-ranked Assembly,” forming a temporary council.

After a majority vote, everyone agreed to replace Hymn's administrative duties with a “council government” temporarily.

All 881 Planet Level and above powerhouses became council members, with each Planet Level powerhouse having one vote and each Stellar Level powerhouse having ten votes.

All resolutions of Fige Hub were decided by council votes, with ordinary resolutions passing by a simple majority and major resolutions requiring a vote of over seventy percent.

Simultaneously, the 8 Stellar Grade powerhouses formed a “Core Committee.”

During this critical period, the Core Committee was responsible for forming a temporary government, selecting officials, controlling the grassroots, and managing local public safety.

Also, under the coordination of the Core Alliance, the military forces of Fige Hub began a large-scale deployment to maintain public order.

Fige's military forces were stationed in every block of all major cities.

They adopted the strictest regulatory measures, severely punishing captured criminals, even executing them on the spot!

Due to the military's iron-fist approach, the turmoil in Fige Hub gradually subsided, at least the criminals no longer dared to rob or kill in broad daylight.

However, deploying the military addressed the symptoms, not the root cause.

To truly restore public order, it was necessary to quickly establish a temporary government, deepen grassroots governance, and also recruit police to quickly expand the law enforcement teams, setting up numerous surveillance cameras in public areas… and so on.

Given the situation in Fige Hub, one could only say that the turmoil was gradually calming, but it still had a long way to go before normal social operations could be fully restored.

After understanding the current situation in Fige Hub, Su Yu nodded silently.

The events in Fige Hub didn't surprise him.

With Hymn's absence, chaos was inevitable; everything that happened was within reason.

Not just in Fige Hub, but other Hub Planets were probably also experiencing similar events.

It was uncertain whether other Hub Planets would also form council governments to quickly suppress the disturbances.

Seeing Su Yu had finished absorbing the Memory Bubble, Glenn Sylvie, with her arms crossed, laid back in her chair and said, “Now you should understand the situation inside the Hub, right?”

“Yes.” Su Yu nodded.

“The situation has slightly improved, but it's still very dangerous inside,” Glenn Sylvie said helplessly. “The temporary government has only installed surveillance cameras in very few public areas, and most areas, especially private places, are completely unmonitored. Someone new like you wandering around the Hub could easily run into trouble, so you must be careful.”

“I should be fine, right?” Su Yu was somewhat puzzled. “I have eighth-order peak strength. Could someone of my level still encounter danger?”

“That's hard to say, you might not know, but recently, the number of fallen Eighth Order cultivators is quite high; eighth-order peak strength is not enough to recklessly charge around.”

With that, Glenn Sylvie pulled up a document and projected it in front of Su Yu.

It was a recent list of deceased Eighth Order cultivators.

In the last two months, the death toll of Eighth Order cultivators had skyrocketed!

In the past, during the peaceful times when Hymn was still present, the average monthly death toll of Eighth Order cultivators ranged from 10 to 20, although it fluctuated, it never exceeded 40.

But in the last two months, the death toll of powerful Eighth Order cultivators had neared 500! That was 25 times the norm!

And this was only the recorded data; who knew how many unrecorded deaths there were.

In fact, not only Eighth Order but also many cultivators below Planet Level had died in large numbers.

“See these 500-plus Eighth Orders? Among them are not a few eighth-order peak and even nearly breakthrough powerhouses, but these people all died for various reasons, if they can die, why can't you?”

“So many powerhouses have been killed?” Su Yu took a deep breath.

Five hundred Eighth Order cultivators had died in two months! This number was somewhat beyond Su Yu's expectations.

In his mind, it should be very difficult for Eighth Order cultivators to die; even if they couldn't defeat Planet Level combatants, they should easily manage to defend themselves against same rank opponents.

But to die so many all at once…

“Could it be? Have Planet Level powerhouses taken action?” Su Yu thought to himself.

If Planet Level powerhouses had intervened, the deaths of Eighth Orders wouldn't be so surprising.

But then again, in such chaotic social conditions where everyone wanted to muddy the waters, not every Planet Level powerhouse was a saint, certainly some wanted to benefit from the situation.

If targeted by Planet Level powerhouses, then Eighth Order cultivators were indeed in grave danger, and their demise wouldn't be an anomaly.

After considering for a while, Su Yu decided to ask.

He looked at Glenn Sylvie, “Ms. Glenn Sylvie, during this turmoil, there shouldn't have been any involvement from Planet Level or above existences, right?”

Glenn Sylvie didn't answer.

Her face grew somewhat grim, and she turned her head towards the room's right wall, her gaze gradually becoming distant.

After quite a while, she turned back and stiffly said, “On the surface, no. All the Planet Level and above big shots are council members, responsible for managing the entire Hub; how could they participate in the turmoil?”
