The plane is impaled on the spire, belching fierce flames.
The Golden Son is a class, possibly not entirely in Berlin, but those selected for the Central Committee must be in Berlin.
The clan leaders of the four families had no intentions of fleeing at the first sign of an accident; they had hoped to witness the crushing of the rebels here, but quickly realized something was amiss:
There were too many workers.
Or rather, the number of workers actually matched those of bureaucrats used for social cushioning...
But such middle-class bureaucrats were really of no use: early in the European Unionâs inception, Germany crafted a highly redundant yet rigid bureaucratic system for stability, draining the publicâs enthusiasm for action amidst endless bureaucratic red tape.
At its worst, a man wanting to renovate his balcony needed to prepare 17 documents, contact 10 relevant planning bureaus, and report upwards through 7 institutions...
The end result might even be a lawsuit from the courts for illegal alteration of the ecological environment due to a bureaucratic mishap along the way, landing him in jail.
This bureaucratic system became increasingly exaggerated after being transformed and reinforced by the Illuminati, although the likelihood of people ending up in jail became negligible, the cost of accomplishing anything outside of planning was horrifyingly high.
Production capability and military strength were the foundations upon which the European Union stood, bureaucracy was merely a... product of compromise among various groups, the greater the conflict, the higher the need for stability, the tougher the maintenance, and the more complex the bureaucratic system.
Clearly, once the tools used to maintain stability collapse, theyâre utterly useless.
The imagined scenario of harsh oppression of workersâ living spaces, gradually reclaiming factories, failed to materialize; on the contrary, due to the emergence of weapons and equipment frequently used by civilians for conversion to workers, the blockade even developed gaps...
In the past, a single mech could block an entire street, now when this mech gets blown up, the place becomes a complete breach.
Once the blockade is broken, chaos spreads quickly...
The four central committee members are trapped in their own ecological villas!
"Commissioner Capes, the rebels are already downstairs..."
"So? We pay you hefty salaries every year, yet you canât stop a bunch of peasants?!"
"Itâs not... not that we canât stop them, itâs that theyâve demonstrated strong technical abilities..."
"Strong technical abilities?! Isnât that just the stuff used for everyday work!"
"But..."
Boomâ
The building begins to shake, everyone is startled...
The soldiers equipped with combat prosthetics sense the anomaly immediately: the building is tilting!
The workers are indeed using their everyday equipment, but while they might not manage to break through the halls filled with private bodyguards and put a bullet in someoneâs head, collapsing a building is right up their alley!
As the building rapidly tilts, the floating cars begin to slide, and only then does Capes, pale-faced, stride quickly toward the floating carâ
But in such terrible weather, fighter jets can at least breathe above the clouds, what about the low-flying floating cars?
They canât fly high.
Following Lilleâs instructions, these four commissioners stand out like beacons in the city, attracting workers to "exterminate the villains," the unstable low-altitude flight is simply suicidal.
Crashâ
Flames burn around Lille, the intense heat does not harm him at all, not even the gradually tilting floor disturbs his steps.
Lille is still immensely large now:
The cooling system used to maintain low temperatures is fixed behind him, concealed under a green cloak, like he is carrying a massive backpack.
In terms of height, thanks to the armor and exoskeleton, the overall height exceeds 1.9 meters, and in width, he is equally robust.
A variety of mechanical hand boxes temporarily assembled surround the cooling system, simultaneously controlled by Lille and Munemasa, collecting scattered componentsâ
Berlin boasts the worldâs most advanced urban logistics system, directly linking surrounding factories, and the factories here are mostly high-tech facilities, with IECâs production line being the most widespread among companies worldwide.
Workers have completely taken over the industrial zone, a few factories guarded by heavy company forces are gradually conquered in explosions, this lays the groundwork for Lille to obtain necessary evacuation components.
[Illuminati: I have waited for this moment for too long.]
[Johnny: Berlin... Weâve burned it to ashes... No, itâs the entire European Union.]
[Johnny: Many will die, more than those killed by my nuclear bomb...]
Johnny is an artistic youth who incessantly clamored to "burn the city to ashes," and indeed ended up bombing Arasaka Tower, but a single nuclear bomb couldnât plunge billions into chaos.
"Charm," such an attribute, when able to incite thousands to gather in front of Arasaka Tower, had already entered a peculiar realm: some were captivated by his ideals, while others were repulsed by the chaos he instigated.
But if billions were plunged into strife because of it...
This far exceeds the definition of "charm" as an attribute.
Facing the turmoil ultimately caused by Lille, even Johnny was profoundly struck: the worldâs most powerful alliance had begun to collapse.
[Johnny: ...In the days of divine chariot, I pondered daily how to face the ordinary people affected... What do you think?]
The same silence befell Sevens and Blais, who followed beside Lille.
They certainly wanted to reveal the truth, but the truth was blood-soaked, and this blood-soaked nature referred not just to the victims but also to the current state.
