As the census progressed, the entire Qiongfang area became turbulent, with the irritating sound of police sirens lingering in the streets day and night.
The upper class nobles, as decision makers, live high above the crowd. Their residence is located on the mountainside, two levels away from the lower town where the common people live.
They only look at the results and are too lazy to waste energy considering whether the internal cleaning process will affect the lives of ordinary monsters.
The original peace and tranquility of the city was broken and it became completely "lively".
Zi Sui, as usual, was dressed in black and wearing a wide hood, walking through the extremely noisy Qiongfang City.
A chaotic melody of sirens and discussions kept echoing in his ears.
This made him feel like he had returned to the human society in his previous life, which was mixed with ghouls.
At that time, ghouls would often appear in the city at night, leaving behind a mess and sirens.
It is now 11 o'clock in the evening on November 11th. Usually, there are not many people on the streets at this time.
But today, this place is bustling with people and brightly lit, and from time to time, passing soldiers knock on the door of a house on the roadside.
Frequent security checks and resident censuses keep the entire city awake.
Often, ordinary people think they can sleep well tonight, but the next second, there will be a knock on the door.
All I can say is that the new regulations will definitely not benefit the common people in the downtown area.
In contrast, the happiest people were the soldiers guarding the city who had obtained the search warrant.
In the past, they had to find excuses, make time, and be secretive when extorting money;
Now, as long as a portion of the proceeds is given to the nobles above, they will have the right to break in directly.
Even some relatively wealthy families would be framed with false charges, have their homes raided, and have all their property confiscated.
This is like breaking into a house and robbing it on orders. It feels so good.
"General, we are all good citizens! We have never even heard of the Red Flamingo Orchid!"
"We didn't join the rebel group! This is a complete slander!"
"That's right! This must be a frame-up! We are innocent!"
"Don't catch me, don't catch me!"
"Stop pushing, stop pushing! A monster has fallen!"
This is the thirteenth, no, fourteenth family that Zi Sui has seen today who has been accused of joining a rebel organization.
Not only do they face the punishment of having their homes searched, but they will also be arrested.
Lou Zisui passed by in the shadows, ignoring the shrill cries for mercy.
The following plot is basically the same, except that the soldiers turned the blame around, scolded them, and then dragged them away to be dealt with.
"So you're saying that I'm wronging you!"
"Outrageous! How dare you insult law enforcement officers? Drag him down and chop him off immediately!"
"yes!"
Well, I can’t say they are exactly the same, I can only say they are exactly the same.
Now the rebel organization doesn't have to bother to clarify, everyone will make analogical inferences in their hearts.
Honghelan opposed the high-level demon clan, so they were also accused of colluding with the human race and were wrongly accused by the nobles.
Ignore public grievances and rely solely on armed forces to plow through the lower city area, forcing all the troublemakers to retreat.
This is indeed a way to stabilize social order in a short period of time and ensure the smooth progress of the conference.
But this is undoubtedly a very bad method.
False peace will only intensify the conflict between the upper class and the common people and allow suppressed rebellious emotions to accumulate.
When this power can no longer be suppressed and is truly released, the huge wave of anger will definitely engulf Qiongfang City.
Zi Sui left the bustling downtown area, strolled slowly to the middle of the mountain, and then wandered into the house of a viscount.
This is the family with the highest status and deepest background among the nobles that he currently controls completely.
As a lineage with higher status among the demon clan viscounts, the Er family has at least five powerful people in the Xuan realm.
This should have prevented Zi Sui, who was only at the eighth level of the Yellow Realm, from approaching.
But the bad thing was that the first person to be converted was a descendant of the Er family who was assigned to the night patrol team, and also one of the grandsons of Xuanjie.
As long as one of the Xuan Realms is attacked, the others will naturally be captured.
"Erkai, report the key points of today's internal meeting of the demon tribe."
As Zi Sui gave the order, a pale old man appeared. He took stiff steps and slowly approached Zi Sui.
Compared with other demons whose realm is not high enough, the old man's expression and movements are more stiff.
That's because Erkai is not a puppet, but a living dead controlled by [Bone Trap].
At this stage, Zi Sui is only at the eighth level of the Yellow Realm, which is not enough to create a skeleton that matches the strong ones in the Xuan Realm.
Turning Xuanjie into a puppet would only weaken his strength and waste this body.
Therefore, generally speaking, as long as the realm is higher than Zisui, Zisui will either compress and store it and convert it into reserve food.
Or they use toxins to control and maximize profits.
However, there are not many prey above the Xuan realm that he can catch now.
Erkai came up to him and began to report.
"A week later, a full curfew will be implemented in Qiongfang City, prohibiting citizens and tourists from going out between 12:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. until the end of the conference."
It seems that this is the new order decided at today's extraordinary meeting.
He is so skilled and bold that he oppresses people like this. Aren't they afraid of rebellion from those below?
But it is true that the top combat forces are all in the upper level. There is at least one powerful person from the heavenly realm living in the center of Qiongfang City.
