Chapter 1182: Chaos

Xiaoma and their people can restrain their own people, but cannot restrain their communications.

Because you don't let them use phones or the internet, they can still use Sky Net.

Since Sky Net was launched, the world has no longer had a communications hegemony.

Everyone's right to free communication is now guaranteed.

This is also the foundation that allows many internet companies of Big Building to wield huge global influence.

It is also the basis for them to push certain matters.

Soon the main island was filled with doubts and mistrust.

Even though Xiaoma has already made changes and is actively easing relations with Big Building.

But no one is taking responsibility.

The matter is too huge; they are about to become Light Rod Commanders from the Thousand Islands Nation.

You've been at this for years, and this is the outcome?

And because of you, we have been tightening our belts for a long time; before, Yingjiang gave them benefits, now Yingjiang has surrendered.

The natural benefits are gone as well.

Their economy has become even more difficult.

Who is the mastermind behind all this?

How can you still have the face to sit in that position?

More and more people are taking to the streets; spurred by the schemers, the scale keeps growing, and everyone's emotions become increasingly intense.

The thing they feared has still happened.

"Quick, dispatch the army and police to me."

"We must not let them turn into violent terrorist incidents…"

"I'll go negotiate with Big Building's Yingjiang to quickly achieve cooperation."

Big Building naturally doesn't bend to your wishes; if you want to talk, we talk, but are we that shameless?

Now you want to negotiate—because you realize you're wrong? No, you don't feel you're wrong; it's the outcome of the situation that you can't bear.

So why should we cooperate with you?

Yingjiang came over to help and said a lot of nice things, but it was of no use.

In the end, Yingjiang was also helpless.

"It's not that we didn't make an effort; it's truly because you went too far at the start."

Xiaoma: It's my fault, but isn't the matter what you called it?

I didn't get any benefit, and I just caused a lot of trouble.

Of course, he just thought about it; once he said it, he was finished.

He wore a look of disappointment and poured out his grievances.

"Oh dear, what should we do? If things keep developing, something terrible might happen."

"Ambassador, you must help me!?"

The Ambassador gave a mysterious smile, leaned close to him, and whispered.

"First, I'll find a way to get you out."

"These years, you've already made a decent haul, and your main assets and family are with our Yingjiang; as long as you leave, what does what happens here have to do with you, a Yingjiang person?"

"You say, I say, am I right?"

Greed.

Xiaoma wanted to punch him.

But the terms this person offered were good; he was planning to run away, and this person solved it for him.

Although he doesn't trust him ninety‑nine percent, overall he is still trustworthy.

However, money, property, and assets cannot be handed over to him to handle.

He will take two routes; through this Ambassador's path back to Yingjiang.

The others and the property will go through his special channel.

"Deal."

Xiaoma showed a look as if they were bleeding profusely.

The Ambassador was very pleased.

"Your Excellency, the Capital, you have made the most correct choice."

"Wishing us a pleasant cooperation."

As Xiaoma kept failing to produce results, public opinion on the island grew increasingly radical.

Many places have already seen huge conflicts.

It's time to go.

One night, the people monitoring Xiaoma were attacked.

By the time the others received the news and rushed over, Xiaoma had already vanished.

"It's over, it's over—once the news of the Capital's disappearance spreads, something truly terrible will happen; we may lose control of the situation."

"Yeah, what do we do? Let's run too."

"Run where? Where are you running to? How will you take the money?"

"There's nothing left; how will you live?"

"The top priority is to quickly appoint a Capital, so that people's hearts can be steadied."

"Then shift all responsibility onto Xiaoma."

This should be able to calm some people's anger.

Everyone thought what he said made sense.

Soon they selected a person.

The guy, still bewildered, became the chief aide.

Then the next morning he followed the script at the press conference and recounted the events.

Then he smoothly became the chief aide.

And that little horse became a person beyond redemption.

But the one who gave the idea also fled at that moment.

His approach was also to find the Yingjiang ambassador.

As another person ran away, those left behind felt even more uncertain.

"Why are they running? With so many of us, can't we still hold onto that money?"

When people's hearts are in chaos, they become disunited, and all sorts of problems arise.

It wasn't until a family was killed that they panicked.

Lu Song really fell into chaos.

First the leader fled, then people started to run away one after another.

The remaining people also wanted to flee, but everything they have is here, how could they run?

"Send all family members out, and then you can also let yourself act freely."

Afterwards, Lu Song's conflicts grew more intense.

It had been stable for so long, but Lu Song finally went chaotic.

Later, the people guarding the Big Building gathering area also left.

With insufficient manpower, these people couldn't take care of it.

In the chaotic Lu Song mainland, some people inevitably wanted to fish in the muddied waters.

And the best fish are those Big Building people.

They have money; robbing one would make them affluent.

Moreover, this isn't their first time; their ancestors have done it, and all succeeded.

Many people want to get rich amid the chaos.

One day, tens of thousands of thugs stormed into the Big Building gathering area.

There were no imagined cries of "crying father, shouting mother", no kneeling pleas for mercy.

They were met with countless guns, cannons, and drones.

The fierce firepower caused this group to lose over ten thousand people instantly.

What followed was a hasty retreat pursued by the Big Building people.

Running and running, these people burst into a military camp, then into a police station, then into a bank…

Running and running, they ended up controlling a city.

By the time some people realized what was happening.

A group of locals, under the banner of the militia defense force, had already taken over those cities.

The Big Building people slipped back into the city.

Moreover, they swiftly pushed a vote; the newcomers quickly became city officials.

When those people saw it, they were fighting for their lives, and you all were picking peaches.

How can this be allowed?

They wanted to go back and cause trouble for those people.

But they were restrained and couldn't move.

At that moment they suddenly sensed a strong conspiracy.

How did all this develop into such a state?

They are a nation, how did it become like this now?

Like fish on a meat board…
