Extraordinary Pedigree.

Chapter 645: Flower of Blood and Bone: One-Dimensional Society VI (End)

When Xia Xiu said that he just happened to know a little bit about fighting, Cameron's face changed instantly, and he pressed the red button that he had placed on the edge of the operating table without hesitation.

[Drip drip drip drip——]

The moment the red button was pressed, a shrill warning sounded throughout the 70 floors.

The entire space was dyed blood red by red warning lights, the warning signs on the walls and floors began to flash, and the warning system issued an urgent sound.

【warn! 】

【warn! ! 】

[You have activated the Anti-EVE Particle Heavy Mode! ]

The moment the red warning sounded, Cameron's body began to change dramatically.

"Class ability: Poison Moon·Bio-alchemy——"

"Inaction Transformation: Terminator Mode!"

Cameron's skin began to wriggle like liquid metal, gradually revealing the metal skeleton inside.

His left hand quickly transformed into an M134 minigun, a multi-barreled rotary machine gun with an extremely high rate of fire, commonly used on helicopters for suppressive fire.

His right hand turned into an M2 flamethrower, with a blazing flame coming out of the nozzle.

Boom——

With a loud bang, the Gatling gun and flamethrower were activated at the same time, launching a fierce attack on the blond young man whose extraordinary power was suppressed by the forbidden position.

The barrel of the M134 minigun rotated at high speed, making a creepy buzzing sound, and dense bullets swept towards Xia Xiu like a rainstorm.

Da da da da da————

The bullets hit the ground and walls, sparking countless sparks and debris, and the entire space was filled with the trajectory of the bullets.

At the same time, the M2 flamethrower also sprayed out hot flames, which swept over like a fire dragon, quickly burning all the oxygen in the air and causing the temperature to rise suddenly.

Wow————

The flames from the flamethrower rolled up a heat wave, as if to swallow Xia Xiu whole.

As the attack was launched, Xia Xiu also responded.

He was not frightened by the sudden attack. He reacted quickly and moved as fast as a cheetah. The twenty-four holy organs in his body were quickly activated the moment the opponent launched the attack.

Peng——

"Fifth Casting: The Power of Bethlehem—"

The dominator implanted in his chest caused Xia Xiu's muscles to grow rapidly. His chest swelled, and his muscles instantly stood out, instantly filled with explosive power.

"The Sixth Holy Foundry: Blood of Jordan"

The blood stamen organ, symbolizing the holy water of baptism, beats rapidly. This organ changes the composition of the blood, making it more efficient in transporting oxygen and nutrients, allowing the human body to withstand the muscular expansion of the [Power of Bethlehem].

"The Tenth Holy Casting: Abel's Bones—"

The bone regulator quickly changes endocrine system to strengthen bones in order to adapt to the changes brought about by the other two organs.

"Holy Forged War Angel Form!"

In just a moment, the body of the fourth sword-wielder in heaven expanded to 2.8 meters, and the clothes on his body also expanded accordingly, perfectly adapting to the changes in his body.

His body became extremely powerful, like a warrior in an ancient mural.

The golden hair began to grow wildly due to the activation of the Holy Casting Organ, and the originally short hair turned into smooth long hair in a few seconds.

His long golden hair fluttered in the wind, emitting a dazzling light, adding a sense of sacredness and majesty to his image.

Xia Xiu's appearance became more extraordinary, his facial lines became more resolute, and his eyes sparkled with golden light, revealing a kind of domineering deterrent power.

On his huge body, the golden muscle lines are as perfect as sculptures, and every muscle appears extremely full and strong.

His chest was broad and heavy, his arms were strong and powerful, and his leg muscles were as tough as steel.

Snapped--

With just a stomp of his foot, Xia Xiu avoided the bullets from the Gatling gun and the flames from the flamethrower.

His movements were swift and agile, as if he had already anticipated the enemy's attack trajectory.

No extraordinary blessings, any EVE particles, or any lineage powers are used here.

This is just pure physical strength.

The purest power that comes from the form of a war angel.

Despite its terrifying appearance, it possesses an agility that is inconsistent with its appearance.

At this moment, the golden afterimage has come to a metal wall on the side.

Then he turned in the air, with the soles of his feet facing the metal wall.

Snapped--

He pushed his feet against the wall and rushed towards Cameron like an arrow.

Cameron's Gatling gun and flamethrower continued to spray wildly, but every bullet and every flame was skillfully avoided by Xia Xiu.

The moment Xia Xiu approached Cameron, his body suddenly flipped, and his right hand swung out like lightning, accurately grabbing the barrel of Cameron's M134 minigun.

click -

The terrifying power brought by [The Power of Bethlehem] made Cameron feel extremely desperate.

The barrel of the gun trembled violently in his hand, but he was unable to break free from Xia Xiu's iron-like grip.

He tried to raise his right hand.

click -

Xia Xiu's left hand quickly grabbed Cameron's right wrist, and the flamethrower's nozzle was forced to turn to the side.

The blazing flames sprayed onto the wall nearby, instantly turning it red.

Xia Xiu's hands were so powerful that Cameron couldn't resist at all.

"The game is over."

The holy-forged war angel began to exert force with both hands.

Click~~
Click~~~
Cameron's mechanical skeleton made a harsh metallic friction sound under Xia Xiu's grip, and a hint of fear and despair appeared in his eyes.

The blond angel's eyes were cold and indifferent. Under Cameron's dull gaze, he began to exert his strength.

“Crack—”

With a loud bang, Xia Xiu exerted force suddenly, and Cameron's mechanical left arm was torn off.

thump—

The barrel of the Gatling gun drew an arc in the air and fell heavily to the ground with a dull sound.

Cameron's body flew backwards under the violent impact and hit the wall heavily.

Xia Xiu did not give Cameron any chance to breathe. He approached quickly, clenched his right fist, and smashed towards Cameron's chest with terrifying force.

Take this move,
A serious punch!
Boom——

The metal skeleton in Cameron's chest was completely shattered by this punch, and the internal mechanical parts flew everywhere, filling the entire 70th floor with mechanical debris.

"Cough cough cough--" Cameron forced out a few hoarse coughs, a trace of silver liquid oozing from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with unwillingness and fear.

Xia Xiu stood in front of Cameron, staring at him coldly, without a trace of mercy in those golden eyes.

Xia Xiu did not stop. He reached out and grabbed a device that was flashing a faint light from Cameron's chest.

This is the core energy device in Cameron's body. Xia Xiu pulled it hard and pulled the device out of Cameron's body.

"what--"

Cameron let out a scream of pain and his body twitched violently.

Xia Xiu held the core energy device in his hand and tossed it around, feeling the enormous energy contained in it, as well as the human genetic module data attached to it.

Then, he looked at Cameron, who was spitting out silver blood, and stretched out his huge palm to press on the other's head.

The hand in War Form was holding Cameron's head like a baseball.

click-

He exerted force with his palms and pulled it out amid Cameron's painful wail.

"Pfft-"

Electric arcs shot out, and Cameron's head was pulled up, and the connection between the head and the steel marrow was wire.
Xiu pulled hard and lifted the whole head. Cameron, whose head was pulled out, did not die. He stared at his body and the blond angel in front of him with wide eyes.

"You...what...are..."

Xia Xiu's expression was still cold and ruthless. He did not give Cameron any chance to breathe. He continued to exert force and finally pulled Cameron's head completely off his body.

Wires and steel bones broke in his hands, and scattered sparks flashed in the air.

His body collapsed to the ground, with metal parts scattered all over the ground. The once powerful mechanical warrior now turned into a pile of useless scrap metal.

"In your condition, you can still survive for a few more minutes."

Xia Xiu said nonchalantly, and at the same time, threw Cameron's head to the ground.

thump—

Cameron's head fell heavily to the ground with a dull thud.

Xia Xiu stood beside Cameron's body, took a deep breath, and slowly relaxed his body.

The War Angel's form slowly receded as he thought about it, his muscles contracting back to their original form, his long blond hair returning to its original short length.

He looked at the core energy device in his hand, quickly glanced around, found a display screen and a holographic projection control console, and walked over.

He operated the console skillfully and inserted the core energy device into a slot. In an instant, countless images of flowing data flashed on the screen.

Xia Xiu's fingers moved quickly on the console, calling up documents and surveillance videos, and began to analyze and record relevant information.

The energy fluctuations of the core energy device spread throughout the entire floor, and the display screens and holographic projections also changed, gradually showing more key data.

The above is the experimental data about the 70th floor:
Regardless of the number of floors, as long as there are windows that can see the outside scenery, the scenery that can be seen is about the 4th or 5th floor of the original residential building.

Although the positions of the red buttons are mostly random, they are regular on some floors. For example, the button on the 45th floor (garage) must be located at the red headlight of a car.

The shapes of the buttons are also different, and some even require unlocking some mechanisms to find.

Similar to the game rules, players are informed of the floor number information through some abnormal means similar to telepathy.

Generally speaking, the higher the number of floors, the larger the floor area.

The game is death-prone due to failure to find the button, staying on the same floor for too long and running out of food, or getting injured.

Upon successful exit, the individual will be mentally affected, expressing a high appreciation for the experience at 721 and having a vague memory of the facility, and will recommend others to go there.

……

It contains a lot of experimental data, as well as genetic data and personnel of many experimental processes. Xia Xiu marked them one by one. After these people appear, they will be taken in and controlled by the Kingdom of Heaven.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem ~ Do you know... what are you doing..."

Cameron, who was pulled out and thrown to the ground by Xia Xiu, roared at him unwillingly.

"I know. I'm dealing with the mess you left behind." Xia Xiu answered while trying to do two things at once.

He is a kind-hearted person. When facing a dying person, he is willing to chat with the other person.

"You are destroying utopia!!!" Cameron said with his eyes wide open.

"Utopia?"

The blond young man was amused. He pointed at the huge gene module read from the chip and asked, "That's it?"

"Don't you understand?"

Facing Xia Xiu's disdain, Cameron stared at the data on the screen infatuatedly.

"Using the recipient technology of the Bluegrass State Blood Center, we comprehensively analyze each person's genetic information; we build a huge genetic database here to store each person's genetic data; based on the results of the genetic analysis, we assign people to occupations and roles that best suit their genetic characteristics; we provide targeted education and training for each person to ensure that they can perform at their best in the assigned occupation."

"Finally, reorganize social classes to make them more consistent with the results of genetic distribution, eliminate inequalities based on birth, wealth and other factors, and establish a new social order based on ability."

Cameron looked extremely enthusiastic, while Xia Xiu stopped what he was doing and asked:
"Is this the awakening of the Inner Temple? Or, in other words, how you think you can defeat the one-dimensional society?"

"Of course!" Cameron, whose fanatical thoughts were already showing signs of losing his mind, was a symbol of his last breath.

"The world is sick, or rather, human society is sick."

“The whole society has become one-dimensional, and human beings have become one-dimensional.”

“Humanity has clearly entered an advanced industrial society and an extraordinary quantitative society—this is the power of technological rationality.

However, human beings did not become better because of this, and utopia was not established because of this; true technological rationality should not be what Terra is like now.

On Terra, technological rationality becomes the dominant force in society, and it is used to reinforce the existing social order and power structure rather than to liberate humanity.

Technology as a form of thing is used as a tool of oppression not only through the way it operates or is applied, but through its own technical logic.

Technology has become the great organizer of society, shaping, integrating and solidifying new forms of social life.

The logic of technology has thus become a political logic, a powerful and irresistible force of control that not only guides the use of tools but also defines the way and purpose of life.

Individuals seek their place and satisfaction within the framework of technology, but this is done within given, unchangeable conditions set by existing power structures.”

“Social structure and culture tend to be homogenized and standardized. In such a society, mainstream culture reinforces consumerism through mass media, advertising and industrialized lifestyle, making people’s thoughts and behavior patterns become more and more similar.”

Cameron looked at the blond young man with despair for the future of human society.

In his view, the thinking and behavior patterns of individuals in a one-dimensional society are assimilated by the mainstream values ​​and consumer culture of society.

Their thoughts are homogenized, they accept and internalize the information and values ​​provided by mainstream media and culture, and lack the ability to think independently and conduct critical analysis.

One-dimensional people adapt to the roles and expectations assigned by society and rarely question or resist unjust or oppressive social structures.

Driven by material consumption and social norms, it is difficult for one-dimensional people to achieve true self-realization and spiritual development, and their lives are often focused on satisfying immediate material and sensory needs.

Such a one-dimensional society is pathological and needs to be corrected.

“This kind of technological rationality should benefit mankind through planning.”

"Liberate a one-dimensional society through top-down control and planning."

"Let the entire human society awaken and have awareness of their future lives!!!"

Cameron's eyes were so fanatical when he said this.

His eyes are genuine.

This is the goal he found and can strive for his whole life.

In the super-quantified Terra, is there anything more exciting than "liberating" all of humanity?

The sword-wielding man in Heaven looked at Cameron, whose eyes were genuine, and was silent for a while.

At the meeting, he asked:

“Are you a pursuer of liberalism or a pursuer of utopianism?”

"What?" Cameron was stunned. He replied subconsciously, "Utopia means freedom. What we pursue is human freedom."

"It seems you still don't understand." Xia Xiu shook his head.

"The word 'freedom' can make certain arguments seem plausible by slightly changing its meaning."

“This subtle change is crucial.”

“To the great advocates of political liberty, freedom meant freedom from coercion, liberation from the tyranny of others, freedom from the kinds of restraints which leave men no choice but to obey their superiors.

Today, however, the new freedom you seek is freedom from necessity, from the circumstances that limit the choices we all make, even if that limitation may be more severe for some than for others.

Before people can be truly free, they must break free from the 'tyranny of want' and throw off the 'shackles of social institutions.'

The fourth sword-bearer in heaven looked at Cameron with a different emotion in his eyes, a kind of indescribable silence about the inner essence of something he was pursuing.

“Undoubtedly, the promise of greater freedom has become one of the most effective tools of utopian propaganda, and many people sincerely believe that utopianism can bring freedom.”

"However, what a tragic irony it would be if those paths thought to lead to freedom actually led to slavery."

“Do you really understand and see clearly the path you are pursuing, and are you ready to take the helm?”

Cameron Brady Turner's consciousness was in a trance for a moment, and he saw the compassionate divinity in the flawless face of the blond young man in front of him.

"I..." He wanted to say something, but his consciousness had passed its last survival period.

He is about to die.

The fourth sword bearer of the Kingdom of Heaven looked at Cameron, who was about to die, and said, "You, you who claim to be the helmsman of the future of mankind, obviously do not understand the price to be paid for building a utopia on Terra."

"No sacrifice is too great to bear, no betrayal too small to ignore - this is only part of the price, and you mistake the price for the truth."

"You are not on the path to freedom and the liberation of humanity."

Cameron moved his mouth, wanting to say something in rebuttal, but the light in his eyes gradually faded.
