Morning of June 6, Catalina Island

Governor Newsom, in pajamas, sat at the dining table with an exquisite breakfast in front of him:

Citrus banana brioche toast, skillet baked eggs, salmon Benedict hash browns and warm milk.

However, despite the hot food, Mr. Governor's appetite is really not very good.

He just ate a few mouthfuls of pan-baked eggs and drank the milk in one gulp. He picked up the tablet computer on the table and read the latest report with a frown.

—Last night in Los Angeles, it was another night of ghosts.

Although relying on the experience of thousands of lives and hundreds of millions of property losses in the past two days, the tactics used by the soldiers and civilians in Los Angeles to fight against evil spirits have been enriched a lot last night, and the efficiency of fighting ghosts has also improved... If time passes , it may not be impossible to achieve "coexistence with evil spirits".

Regrettably, the people of Los Angeles are obviously not enough to "relocate their homeland", and they seriously lack the courage and determination to "defend their homeland with their lives".

Instead of living with such a terrifying murderous ghost, who might destroy the whole family one day, they would rather choose to get in the car and move.

——In the past two days, after the 400 million people in downtown Los Angeles fled, 1000 million people in surrounding towns also began to migrate and flee for their lives.

Naturally, it is conceivable that such a wave of refugees with a population of tens of millions will have a social impact on the surrounding areas of Los Angeles.

You know, Los Angeles is the second largest city in the United States, and the entire California has a population of just over 3000 million!

To the northeast of Los Angeles, barricades have been erected in Las Vegas, Nevada, and dozens of hotel malls have been looted by mobs.

On the east side of Los Angeles, 80 refugees flooded into Phoenix, Arizona within a week, causing the price of hotel rooms and rental housing in Phoenix to soar twenty-fold in an instant, churches and gymnasiums were all filled, and local charities were overwhelmed Law and order also collapsed to almost nothing.

There are also San Francisco to the north of Los Angeles and San Diego to the south, which have also been in a mess in recent days.

In San Diego, the Pacific Fleet has begun to organize sailors to patrol the streets and set up road checkpoints to barely maintain basic order.

In San Francisco, the "Black Lives Matter" movement, which has been raging all the time, is superimposed on the million-scale refugee wave from Los Angeles. A scene of racing riots.

Burning cars and zero yuan purchases are already pediatrics. If you want to burn, you can burn the gas station to be the best!

It's too boring to rob a supermarket. If you want to rob, you can rob banks and jewelry stores!

If you can gather hundreds of brothers, then you can rush into the big villas of the rich and enjoy the taste of those pretty blondes!

What's more terrible is that a group of broken soldiers from the 40th Infantry Division who escaped from Los Angeles yesterday also fled into San Francisco in a Humvee this morning, and clashed with the police and other troops who intercepted them, and a fierce exchange of fire broke out—— In the ensuing battle, this group of heavily armed rout soldiers even used heavy machine guns, anti-personnel directional mines and rocket launchers, beating the police to disgrace and leaving corpses strewn all over the field, and even shot down a police helicopter.

Governor Newsom had no choice but to order the suppression force to bring in the tanks as soon as possible to ensure that these "rebels" can be crushed...

In addition, due to the collapse of the army, a large number of standard weapons were lost. As a result, the rest of the small and medium-sized cities in south-central California also heard random gunshots last night and today. During the day, he used a gun to beat people, and at night, he beat people and ghosts at the same time.

As for the spread of the epidemic, the streets everywhere, the zombies running around under the moon... These unimportant things have long been ignored by no one.

However, although the whole of California is slowly being turned into a battlefield in Syria, Governor Newsom is still hesitant about whether to instruct a certain Japanese witch to try the "forbidden spell therapy" that is said to be able to eradicate the grass and roots. To express his position, he wants to continue lying down and pretending to be stupid.

Because, although the situation in California today is rapidly deteriorating and collapsing, this is a natural process.

Even if California is reduced to a purgatory, Governor Newsom is confident that most of the responsibility will be thrown away by relying on his verbal skills in the political arena for many years.

——Since the "Corona" epidemic broke out this year, although more than 100 million people have died of illness in the United States, and the death toll is still soaring, it is expected to exceed the 200 million mark next month, but there is still no politician. It is the same as stepping down or being punished because of poor epidemic prevention.

Even if some people hoarded medical supplies during the plague, raised their prices and reluctance to sell them, and made huge profits, they were only criticized by public opinion in the end.

Because this plague is a "natural disaster" and it is God's arrangement. Naturally, no mortal should be responsible for it.

However, if Governor Newsom actually ordered a Japanese miko to try to use her forbidden spell to eliminate disasters-and it was also a forbidden spell that was known from the beginning to have serious side effects and cause great damage... …

Then, all the consequences arising from this will have to be borne by Governor Newsom.

What's more, no one can tell the details of mysterious stuff like mysticism.

Even though those strange people told some secrets before, Governor Newsom is not sure whether what the other party said is true or not, and whether there is any concealment.

——After so many years in politics, Governor Newsom has seen a lot of all kinds of sanctimonious hypocrites and brazen liars!

What if the shaman with a dark face and a dark heart pretended to cast a spell to eliminate disasters in Los Angeles, but actually summoned an evil god to descend to earth?

How many tens of thousands or even millions of people have died is a trivial matter. The important thing is, who should be responsible for this at that time?

Therefore, Governor Newsom is very, very unwilling to make such a "courageous" decision, and just wants to drag things down endlessly.

At the same time, he secretly slandered Qiu Shanhui in his heart, thinking that this little girl was too ignorant.

Why don't you trust the government?

Why don't you take the initiative to stand up as a superhero, voluntarily cast spells and save Los Angeles?

If it is to cast this forbidden spell, you need gold, sacrifices, money, and manpower, all in one sentence!

Even if I have limited skills and can't get it out for a while, there are so many big shots in California who can help you get things together!

But you must ask me, the governor, to authorize the endorsement... Aren't you embarrassing me?

Although the reputation of this country is indeed not very good, it is not so bad that every time it is kind and revenge!

However, although Governor Newsom has 1 people who refuse to take the blame, there are many scapegoats in this world, and you don't have to take the blame if you don't want to.

So, shortly after the tasteless breakfast, Governor Newsom received a confidential communication from Washington.

"...Mr. Governor, please take responsibility and authorize that Japanese witch to cast magic in Los Angeles!"

On the screen of the mobile phone, the California senator told Governor Newsom in a non-negotiable tone, "... Capitol Hill has reached a consensus that the evil spirits of Los Angeles can no longer let it go, even if it takes a little risk , is also worth it.”

"...Why? Why on earth did Congress suddenly change its mind?"

Governor Newsom said somewhat unwillingly, "...Hasn't it been impossible to form a unified view on Capitol Hill before?"

"...Because, the son of Councilor Camden died. Just last night in the Mojave Desert!"

The California senator in the video chat said, "...I remember you should know him, Mr. Governor."

"...Camden Senator's son? The survivalist who turned an ICBM silo into an underground shelter?" the governor thought for a moment.

"...Yes, it was him, and he was killed by evil spirits last night in the Mojave Desert, in the underground shelter he built himself!

The people who lived in the underground shelter with him also died seven times and were injured. Even if they were rescued, it is not known whether there will be sequelae. "

The senator replied with a very serious expression, "...buried 60 meters deep underground, with complete facilities, according to the design, it can withstand the doomsday underground shelter of nuclear war, but it can't stop the invasion of evil spirits at all! This caused great harm to the entire Capitol Hill. There was a huge shock!

If evil spirits can easily come and go in such an underground refuge, then even Cheyenne Mountain North American Aerospace Defense Command and the White House's underground strategic intelligence room may no longer be safe!Therefore, we now have to master a sufficiently effective method of exorcising evil spirits, and it must be fast!

This is the broad consensus of the entire Capitol Hill, I hope you can understand the seriousness of this matter, Mr. Governor..."

Chapter 129: The death of the survivalist, the shelter is useless

People living in the 21st century often have a hard time imagining how deep the fear of doomsday was in people's hearts at the peak of the Cold War.

During half a century when the United States and the Soviet Union competed for hegemony and the world was divided into two by the Iron Curtain, the two camps relied on the terrifying nuclear balance to maintain their confrontation.

This kind of confrontation, in terms of hardware, is manifested in the tens of thousands of nuclear bombs produced by the United States and the Soviet Union, as if they were cutting sausages;

In terms of software, it is manifested in the infinite fear of nuclear war and nuclear disaster among people all over the world.

——The propaganda machines of both sides of the Cold War are still deliberately deepening people's fear of nuclear weapons.

It makes people feel that once World War III breaks out, modern civilization will be destroyed with the explosion of countless nuclear warheads.

——The irony is that it was such deep-rooted fear that prevented the Cold War from evolving into a hot war or a nuclear war.

All in all, at that time, all Americans lived in constant fear of nuclear weapons.In the American campus at that time, there was even a special nuclear war three-defense education class. The entire American society, from top to bottom, was always worried that the world would disappear overnight in the flash of a nuclear explosion...

In such a long-term tension of extreme fear, a group of guys called "survival freaks" quietly emerged in American society.

These people are pessimists with the most tenacious desire to survive. On the one hand, they believe that nuclear war or other catastrophes will break out and modern human civilization will be destroyed. Power to achieve doomsday survival.

In short, survivalists are a group of people who worry about the sky and are full of action, actively preparing for life after the collapse in advance.

Those survivalists who don’t have much money usually choose to dig air-raid shelters in their own backyards, store guns, bullets, drinking water and cans in the basement, and at the same time work hard to exercise, pay attention to health, and conduct regular comprehensive physical examinations: want to be a survivalist Madness, how can you not have a strong body?

At the same time, these survival freaks are usually not simple-minded brats with well-developed limbs, but are generally highly educated, so they are constantly learning throughout their lives, trying to master knowledge such as wilderness survival, military affairs, geography, planting, cooking, fishing and hunting, etc., to ensure that they can cope with extreme situations The following skill requirements...

——It has to be said that although these survivalists have been prepared for the doomsday nuclear war for half a century and never broke out on the earth, these preparations can indeed improve their ability to deal with hurricanes, wildfires, floods and snowstorms. survival rate.

Next, compared with the ordinary survivalists who can only "stock up food for shortages", those rich survivalists are much more generous.

For these billionaires who are so poor that they only have money left, yachts, luxury cars, and young models of villas are all leftovers from previous generations.

If you must show off, you should build a super luxurious doomsday shelter, which is enough "trench"!

Besides, in recent years, the rich people in the United States have gradually felt that the country's situation is not good, the law and order are getting worse, and social conflicts are increasing.

Who knows when this country will collapse, and there will be a big chaos in which the social order will collapse?

Therefore, just like the wealthy people in ancient China would build docks in the countryside, many underground fortifications built by the U.S. military in the wilderness of the Midwest during the Cold War were bought and remodeled by those rich and wealthy with a sense of crisis, as they used them in the desert. Safeguard the family's sanctuary during the apocalypse.

In addition, there are also specialized companies engaged in the business of excavating and building luxury shelters. The slogan is to allow the rich to continue to live a luxurious life while taking refuge, and to create "life insurance when the law is useless" for the rich. , the Noah's Ark of the soul", and the business is quite good.

——Being a human being, the desire to survive needs healing most!

Today, there are tens of thousands of luxurious private underground shelters all over the United States.

Before, most of these shelters were idle, but with the intensification of the "Corona" epidemic, many shelters have now been quietly activated.

Among them, Camden Jr., the son of Councilor Camden, is the owner of a luxurious underground shelter.

His luxurious underground shelter is located in the Mojave Desert in the southwestern United States. It was transformed from an American intercontinental missile silo during the Cold War. From the drawings, it is basically a skyscraper built upside down. , the deepest can reach minus fourteen floors, 60 meters underground.

In addition to being deep enough, this underground shelter is also extremely strong. The thick cement roof can withstand the shock wave of a nuclear explosion and the frontal bombardment of a field howitzer. The gate made of high-strength alloy weighs [-] pounds. If there is no password , even with explosives, it is difficult to break open by force.

There are four explosion-proof doors behind the door of the shelter. Behind the door is the security monitoring room. In the middle is a high-speed elevator, connecting the fourteen floors.The underground warehouse stores enough canned food, frozen food and dehydrated food for 50 people to eat for five years, as well as a large amount of fuel oil and other daily necessities.

In this impregnable fortress, although the little Camden family is hidden underground and out of sunlight, their life is not gloomy and dull.

Because the shelter has a luxuriously decorated indoor swimming pool, an exquisite and comfortable private cinema, a gym, bar, library and medical center that are no different from the outside, as well as a small green vegetable garden illuminated by simulated sunlight, and all kinds of living and entertainment facilities. Everything you need, with first-class comfort.

Since the "Corona" epidemic broke out in the United States in early March, Little Camden took his wife and children, servants, security guards, and several relatives and friends, a total of 16 people, to live in this underground shelter, and never came out again. , just rely on long-distance communication to keep in touch with the outside world.

According to their thinking, it is about staying in the shelter until the plague is over, or until all the stockpiled supplies are exhausted.

And the shelter did its job, and none of the people in it had contracted the COVID-19 virus.

The only problem is that Little Camden's sanctuary is located in the far west of the Mojave Desert, across a mountain range from Los Angeles...

As a result, the evil spirits, capable of flying into the sky and escaping from the ground, came to Little Camden's shelter in the middle of the night on June 6, and easily passed through the thick concrete walls, entered the interior of the shelter, and slaughtered people who were caught off guard !

For the sixteen poor people in the refuge, this is really a sad and infuriating thing-they have obviously gathered the most food, stacked the thickest armor, and pushed their physical defense to the limit... Unexpectedly, the opposite side launched a psionic attack without any martial arts! !

In this way, an indescribable American horror story was bloody staged in this underground shelter on the edge of the Mojave Desert.

When the evil spirit left, only eight of the sixteen people in the shelter survived, and the dead even included the owner of the shelter, Camden Jr.

During the entire time when the evil spirits were raging, the external communications of the refuge had never been interrupted. Therefore, the Camden MP, who was far away in Washington, was almost facing the screen, watching helplessly as his son was trapped in the fortress he had carefully built, with nowhere to go. Died miserably.

After the news of this tragedy was spread on Capitol Hill, all congressmen and the rich people behind them were also deeply shocked.

——In the past, with the wealth and power in their hands, even if a world war breaks out, they can stay in the safe rear; even if the plague is raging and the city is isolated, they can still enjoy food, wine, and drones at home Airdropped goods, sick also have the best medical services.

However, in front of the howling and raging evil spirits, they are like pariahs, who can only die miserably accompanied by indescribable terror...

The doomsday underground refuge built with huge sums of money can only become their own grave once haunted.

How could these pretentious rich and powerful people be willing to accept such a terrible thing?

Therefore, the entire Capitol quickly broke through the barriers of parties and ethnic groups and reached a consensus.

——In any case, the ghosts of Los Angeles cannot be allowed to continue.The way to exorcise evil spirits must be in your hands!

Since the Japanese priestess claims that she has a way to exorcise evil spirits, let her try it!

At this time when extraordinary beings are born and evil spirits are raging, the dignitaries of the whole country are looking forward to grabbing a straw to save their lives. I think the governor of California should not be so blind and insist on blocking everyone's way of survival...Of course, if he insists on being so Without eyesight, Capitol Hill also has plenty of solutions...

In the face of the unanimous opinion of Capitol Hill, Governor Newsom, who did not want to end his political life, could only obediently take the blame.

In this way, on June 6, Governor Newsom finally flew to Irvine by helicopter and invited Megumi Akiyama to cast a spell on Los Angeles to exorcise evil spirits...

Chapter 130, King of Beverly

Afternoon, June 6th, Los Angeles, Beverly Hills

Standing on the marble balcony with silk curtains, Megumi Akiyama overlooks the wrought iron fence and brass gate around the courtyard, exquisitely carved marble statues and arched fountains, tall and straight palm trees, pasted with blue mosaics The open-air swimming pool... and the skyscrapers and ocean in the distance.

At this moment, she was in a certain renaissance-style palace mansion on the top of Beverly Hills.

It is also the location of the sacrificial site where the "Forbidden Curse Spell" will be cast next.
