The road to the police station was not smooth.

The main reason is that the city is too big.

Jietan City is a very developed metropolis that can be seen at first glance. Even if its area cannot be compared with the real world, the Shanghai market that has expanded several circles continuously, or has continuously annexed several districts, it will not be smaller than any other provincial capital city.

According to the information from Chen Ming’s torture, the police station is in the city center, the most central area of ​​the city.

You should know that in reality, if we want to rush from the edge of the city to the city center and take the bus, it will take about tens of minutes, and some larger cities can also be found in nearly an hour.

Jietan City is now completely chaotic. The roads are full of abandoned cars, and many sections of the road are blocked by these unowned vehicles. People have to find ways to climb over the car when walking. Naturally, it is impossible for buses to continue operating.

It can also be seen that this game should be a world in the near future, and many technologies in it are more advanced than in reality.

Just like the long hanging rails suspended above the main road, there are five or six floors high, its branches are firmly fixed on the surrounding buildings, using them as bridge piers, and another overpass is built over the winding road.

This hanging "road" is not ordinary vehicles, but rail trains hanging upside down on the hanging rails, which are similar to the common subways in reality.

Unfortunately, many sections of this suspended track have been broken by unknown forces, and several of the trains have fallen from mid-air and smashed on the streets.

The ordinary cars on the street look more sleeker and more avant-garde and fashionable than the real cars. Unfortunately, they can no longer play a role in this congested and messy street.

The traffic was completely paralyzed, so Chen Ming could only let his legs move back and forth repeatedly and move towards the city center.

It is of course a very hard thing to keep walking, but it is precisely because of this slow pace that Chen Ming further understands the degree of chaos in the city.

Traffic cuts are just the slightest manifestation of the consequences of this chaos, and the more serious ones are corpses, which are everywhere and all kinds of corpses.

Some of them fell straight to the ground, and could see clear wounds on their bodies; some of them broke through the front windshield due to a collision between vehicles and lay on the hood; some of them were hung on the street lights by ropes; some of them were piled up together, and once they passed there, they could smell an amazing stench; some seemed to fall from a high altitude and fell into a soft pool on the sidewalk...

Whether it was the smell of blood or the smell of corpse, whether it was the blackened dead skin or the worms squirming on the rotten corpse, they were all impacting the sound of the cuckold's senses one after another, testing his stomach control.

Of course, there are other, less frustrating discoveries.

For example, Chen Ming's test was very clear. This should be a Western city. Most of the people in the city are white, and a small number are black. So far, people with yellow skin and black hair have not found it in the corpse.

In addition, this city is not all criminals, but civilians. For example, in some areas with more apartments or civilian communities, you can see some organized civilian self-protection teams from time to time. They have men and women, old and young, and build barricades on the main roads, and some strong men hold weapons to guard the key positions of the area.

Chen Ming even encountered an incident where a gang besieged a civilian self-protection zone. He mobilized his ability to help these poor people.

But even though he revealed his identity as a superhero, these civilians who formed self-protection were still wary of him, with doubts in their eyes.

Fortunately, after a round of negotiations, he was finally qualified to pass this neighborhood and there was no need to find another way to detour.

In addition to residential areas, there are also commercial areas. Unfortunately, it is not difficult to see that it has been swept here long ago, especially supermarkets that provide food and pharmacies that provide medicine. Most of the doors were broken, windows were smashed, and the shelves were snatched empty and clean. Chen Ming only chose a set of casual sportswear that fits himself in a sports clothing store.

It is not difficult to understand that the amount of supplies consumed by a large city every day is extremely large, especially all kinds of fresh food, which are transported from surrounding areas to cities almost every day.

Just like the vegetable basket project in China in reality, under the unified arrangement and dispatch of the government, in general prefecture-level cities, hundreds of freight vehicles of all sizes will enter the city in the suburbs at three or four o'clock every morning, and transport the freshly picked vegetables and just slaughtered meat to various large supermarkets, vegetable markets, and distribution stations, and then these places will be delivered to various restaurants and small supermarkets in batches...

Although the West does not call this name, there are corresponding mechanisms. However, with the current situation in Jietan City, I believe that food from other places outside the city cannot be transported in, and people in the city can only eat stocks.

Hunger is a very terrible thing. Although the conflict between various forces in Jietan City is not serious now, once the food in the city is exhausted, the situation will probably be even worse.

Of course, if the city is lucky enough to have a superpower who can create food out of thin air, that's another matter.

In addition, as he continued to approach the city center, Chen Ming also discovered other things worth noting.

For example, a building that broke into two sections and collapsed halfway; for example, a huge footprint on the asphalt road, like a monster's footprint; for example, a circular pit with a diameter of more than ten meters and a depth of more than one meter on the ground; for example, cars, armored vehicles, and tanks that were stepped on by something to form iron; for example, the surface of a building seemed to be corroded by something, and the walls of both walls turned into potholes and black...

It all looks shocking and makes people think a lot.

Moving forward, observing, killing, and electricity, finally, Chen Ming saw the headquarters building of Jietan City Police Department.

This building is not very tall, it is only twelve floors. There is a large police badge painted on the wall. Under the police badge are the six big words "Jietan City Police Station".

However, the building was known to have been flooded with war. The walls seemed to be sunk like a rocket launcher, and the black mottled left after the gunpowder burned; the windows on the outside of the building were almost intact, and all turned into holes; the streets outside the building were burnt out of the car wreckage, some sandbags, iron bars, and stones built a circle of more than three meters high walls, surrounding the building and several buildings next to it in the middle.

From time to time, you can see some shadows of people from this simple wall, the dark windows of the building behind, and the roof of the headquarters building, without exception, all of them were holding weapons.

Chen Ming did not rush to get closer, but instead found a nearby building, walked up the stairs, found someone to go to the empty office, carefully poked his head out of the window, and began to carefully check the situation on the police station.

Of course, this is due to his usual caution. Although in the mission briefing, the military and police were resisting, things often change rapidly. Who knows whether these people are still resisting? Could it be another large criminal organization entrenched here?

If you want to do things well and avoid risks as much as possible, you need to collect intelligence as much as possible, formulate plans, and minimize accidents.

After observing for a while, Chen Ming found that many of the people patrolling the police headquarters were wearing blue police uniforms and black bulletproof vests. There were even many soldiers in gray-green camouflage military uniforms. At the door of the building, there were even two armored vehicles loaded with roof cannons parked.

It doesn't look like a criminal gang, but there are countless things like clothes. It is possible to kill all the people here and strip their clothes to wear them.

After observing for a while, Chen Ming's eyes narrowed.

On another fork next to it, a group of people slowly approached the police headquarters building. Among the leaders and those who broke the back were several people wearing police uniforms, military uniforms and helmets. The people surrounded by them were more than a dozen people in different clothes and looked civilians. These people were men and women, and several of them were carrying bulging backpacks on their backs.

The group fought in front of the simple wall of the headquarters building for a while, and moved a bunch of things away from the wall and gave way to them. The group walked in, and the rest walked into the headquarters, while one of the people in the uniform led the civilians into a building behind the police headquarters.

Thanks to the virtual reality game's body repair system, Chen Ming's original myopia and astigmatism no longer exist, and his vision is very good. Although the distance is a little far, it can be seen that these dozen civilians do not seem to be forced, walking a little casually, and the people on the other side do not scold or take action.

It seems that it is right. These people are indeed still resisting and maintaining the harmony of the city!

Thinking of this, Chen Ming turned around and went downstairs. Of course, he was still wearing the superhero custom uniform that was very difficult to wear.

"Who? Stop!" As soon as he appeared in the sight of the military and police on the simple wall, the sound of the shouts of the opposite side came over: "I order you to stop! Show your identity! Otherwise you will shoot!"

Unlike before, Chen Ming stopped, shaking the superhero certificate in his hand, while raising his courage and yelling: "I am a new superhero sent by the Harmonic Alliance. Jiutian Yingyuan Thunder Sound is universally transformed into Tianzun!"

There was an uproar on the opposite side, and then gradually disappeared, without any sound, and of course there was no response.

After waiting for a while, it took about three minutes before another voice came from the opposite side, which was a somewhat hoarse male voice: "Please don't get close! We will send someone to verify your identity! I'll repeat it again! Please don't get close!"

He breathed out of his nose, Chen Ming did not raise his legs.

Soon, as before, a small piece of obstacle was removed, and three fully armed soldiers, wearing hoods and helmets, holding large explosion-proof shields, rifles, and submachine guns, followed in small steps.

"Please show your ID!" The one who spoke was the one holding the explosion-proof shield, and the other two pointed the muzzle in their hands at Chen Ming.

Chen Ming handed him the identity card in his hand.

He reached out from behind the explosion-proof shield, took the ID card, looked it over and over again, and handed it back, and said: "Due to the limited equipment, we cannot tell the authenticity of the ID card. Please take out your exclusive phone again! After unlocking, let me see the interface! There is also the exclusive app of the Harmonic Alliance!"

Should I be so cautious? If I unlock the phone, he won’t come to grab it, right? But don’t be afraid, at such a close distance, unless he is a fifth-level rubber ability or a space ability, I can quickly kill them once I explode!

Thinking of this, Chen Ming took out his phone from a hard leather pocket on his waist, brushed it with his face, jumped to the main interface, and then clicked on the exclusive app to open it.

The man looked at the mobile phone interface and looked at each other with an uncertain tone: "Are you really a superhero? The kind of superhero like Mr. White Bird?"

"Yes." Chen Ming nodded seriously, and then leaked a little information: "And I am like White Bird Man, both are fifth-level superpowers."

But the leader's voice did not have the joy that he had expected, but felt helpless: "Since that's the case... OK, then come with us."

Although he was a little puzzled by their attitude, Chen Ming followed them into the gap and into the small wall.

There were more people in the wall than Chen Ming guessed, almost thirty or forty, all holding guns, with sharp eyes, as if they were admiring giant pandas in the zoo, surrounded Chen Ming in the middle, half-placed the muzzle in his hand, as if he would raise the gun to shoot at any time.

The leading soldier trotted two steps, walked to a strong man wearing a black leather jacket with two large silver pistols around his waist, a short buzz cut and a beard, and whispered to him.

Beard took two steps forward, his voice hoarse: "Can you unlock your phone again, let's confirm it?"

"Oh~" sighed, Chen Ming had to take out his cell phone again, unlock it, and show it around him.

Amid the screams around, Beard looked at the phone interface carefully again, and then nodded: "Okay, I believe you are the new superhero!"

"You are the person in charge here? What's going on here? What happened? How did that White Bird Man disappear?" Chen Ming had too many questions in his heart, and he wanted to ask them all at once.

"I am Sheriff James, I am the interim commander here now. Well... the director and the deputy director have all died." Beard stretched out his hand: "As for other issues, let's talk about it later."

Chen Ming also reached out to shake him, and then the two walked into the police headquarters building together.

The headquarters building was a little messy, and even the aisle was full of things, including bags of flour, boxes of bullets, leaning guns, several rooms, and wounded people lying on simple beds, wrapped in bandages, and occasionally moaning a few times...

The two of them went straight to the third floor along the safety stairs and walked into a room.

This room is very simple. It looks like an office with a large desk in the middle, a folding bed in the corner, and a very detailed map of the entire city hanging on the wall.

"This is my office and bedroom." Beard briefly introduced it, then shrugged: "Sorry, there is no electricity now, and I can't make it to be treated to you by coffee."

"It's okay." Chen Ming waved his hand: "I just arrived in Jietan City, and I don't know the specific situation here. Can you explain it to me a little?"

"Of course." Bearded face was heavy: "I can only say that the situation is very serious now. The city has completely become a nest of sin. Almost every moment, hundreds of innocent people die in the city, and the power of sin is far stronger than us. We are already doing our best to be able to defend the surrounding blocks..."

Chen Ming heard the implication of his words: "Don't worry, you don't need your exact support. Just keep maintaining the status quo. I just want to know some of the information in this city, such as those large criminal organizations, or higher-level super criminals."

"Oh... that... let's talk according to the map." After hearing Chen Ming's explanation, Beard looked a little embarrassed, so he stood up and walked to the map on the wall.

Then, he began to introduce: "Look, we are here now, almost the center of the city, and the scope of influence of protection is so large. From here to here, we have recruited all the adult men in the nearby blocks to resist the evil people outside, collect supplies, and people sacrificed every day."

"Because the public security situation in the city was not very good before, after the alien incident, due to the addition of super criminals, criminal organizations in the city were rapidly flooded. There were countless large and small. They attacked everywhere every day, occupying territory, humiliating, and robbing ordinary people. They kept fighting each other, merged and splitting... So we can't say how many criminal organizations there are in the city now."

"But these are small organizations, not worth mentioning. When Mr. White Bird Hero is here, it is easy to wipe out them. The key is that there were four of them, but one of them was defeated by Mr. White Bird Hero, but now there are three left..."

"Oh, the one who was defeated was the 'Blood Crocodile Gang' that originally occupied the area south of the city. Their boss Chagayev was originally an underground black boxer. After the alien incident, he awakened the fifth-level transformation superpower [Crocodile God] and formed the 'Blood Crocodile Gang'. He was able to transform into a huge crocodile more than eight meters high. His body was huge and his strength was infinite. Even the special armor-piercing bombs of the t29 tank could not penetrate his skin, leaving us helpless. Fortunately, because his threat is too great, Mr. White Bird He chose to solve him first, and fought with him in the south of the city, successfully killed him, and completely destroyed the 'Blood Crocodile Gang'. It's a pity that before we could stabilize the good south of the city, Mr. White Bird He disappeared... Alas..."

"The other three large forces are the 'Purple Skeleton Society' entrenched in the Easton Chemical Factory in the north of the city. Their old master Dalton was originally an ordinary worker in the factory. He accidentally fell into the reaction tank of the chemical factory during the alien incident, causing his original ability to mutate. According to the intelligence analysis we have obtained, he should now be a fifth-level superpower. His original ability may be [hydration] and he can transform into water, but now he can transform into a large area of ​​dark purple special liquid, with extremely corrosiveness. It only takes one second to completely turn people into white bones... The White Bird Hero had fought with him once before, but both of them had no choice but to leave it alone in the end."

"There is another Vayne Group led by Miss Catherine. It is located here, in the west of the city. Vayne Group is the original economic pillar of the city and one of the largest private weapons manufacturing companies in Beimizhou. The high-tech weapons manufactured by their company are sold well around the world. As one of the largest geniuses in the continent, Miss Catherine also awakened the fifth-level superpowers during this alien incident. We call it [Star Fall]. She can summon a very huge stone to smash the earth, and its power is amazing. She has repelled several attacks led by the 'crocodile god' Chagayev."

"Luckily, Miss Catherine is a kind person. Her Vayne group did not become a criminal organization. It only occupied a small area in the west of the city. With her company's employees, she guarded their families at the group's base. When Mr. White Bird was there, Miss Catherine even cooperated with us many times to provide us with a large number of arms and food and drugs, which allowed us to support us until now. Unfortunately, after Mr. White Bird's disappearance, Vayne group cut off contact with us."

"The last one is Haha Island, east of the city. It has always been a slum in the city. The crime rate is high and the environment is very complicated. In the past few days of peace, even our police rarely went to Haha Island to enforce the law. It is not an exaggeration to say it is a place beyond the law."

"But there is not a big threat for the time being. After the alien incident, Haha Island was shrouded in a large fog. No one knew what happened inside. No one of the people we sent to check came back. When Mr. White Bird He came, he also went to investigate and entered the fog for more than an hour before coming out. Apart from warning us not to send people there, he did not explain anything to us..."

Hearing this, Shen Ming could no longer help it, and he opened his mouth and asked: "Will the disappearance of the White Bird Hero is related to this Haha Island? For example, he might be on that island?"

"No." Inspector James shook his head, with a deep helplessness in his voice: "It has nothing to do with Haha Island. Mr. White Bird He disappeared because he was invited by Mr. X to participate in Mr. X's game..."
