38: Chapter 38 Los Santos, utterly conquered! A royal experience!
High up on the rooftop, the howling wind continued to rage.
The thick scent of blood and the scattered viscera of the Zero Tyrant adorned the place, making it look like a Shura hell.
Yet, at Chu Feng's feet, a different scene unfolded.
Evelyn's stunningly beautiful face, usually so cold and arrogant, was now pressed with utmost devotion against Chu Feng's military boots.
Her delicate red lips parted slightly as she meticulously cleaned the stains off the surface of his boots.
On the other side, Hollywood's top film actress, Stussy, had her head tilted back, her sea-blue eyes shimmering with moisture, filled with an indelible, pathological obsession.
Before this man, who could tear apart even The Pentagon's ultimate biological weapon with his bare hands, their identities, status, and even dignity, which they took such pride in, were worth less than the very air.
"Return to the room."
Chu Feng uttered those three words indifferently and turned to walk towards the rooftop elevator.
Several Mech Bandits remained behind to clean up the disgusting remains on the rooftop.
Chu Feng returned to the luxurious presidential suite on the top floor.
Inside the suite, the climate control system blew out comfortable warm air.
Jessica had been kneeling at the suite's entryway waiting.
When she saw Chu Feng return unscathed, bringing Evelyn and Stussy with him, a flash of undisguised fanaticism appeared in her eyes.
"Master, your bathwater has been prepared for you."
Jessica looked up.
Chu Feng said nothing and walked straight into the luxurious bathroom.
In the large, temperature-controlled bathtub, the water rippled.
Chu Feng leaned against the edge of the bathtub, closing his eyes to rest.
Thanks to the genetic agent enhancement, the stamina he had expended tearing apart the Zero Tyrant just moments ago was fully recovered within mere minutes.
That sensation of every cell being filled with explosive power filled him with absolute confidence in controlling the entirety of Los Santos moving forward.
In the bathroom, sounds soon began to ring out.
...
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Los Santos, the USA National Guard, which had originally been deployed in formation and ready for battle, received a top-secret order from Washington.
"All troops, retreat! Withdraw one hundred kilometers from the Los Santos city area! Establish a new defensive blockade!"
The officers who received the order all breathed a sigh of relief.
The miserable sight of that armored battalion being unilaterally slaughtered earlier had long since terrified them.
No one wanted to face that city, which was wrapped in tanks and anti-aircraft missiles like an iron hedgehog.
The vast, mighty army was like the receding tide, retreating sheepishly from the edge of Los Santos.
Following the retreat of the army, Los Santos, this California metropolis with a population of nearly ten million, was officially declared "physically separated" from the map of the USA.
No government, no police, no laws; in their place were two hundred thousand fully armed bandits wearing black masks!
Dawn was gradually breaking, and on the streets of Los Santos, a strange and oppressive silence hung in the air.
On the main roads, M2 infantry fighting vehicles rumbled back and forth on patrol, the sound of their tracks crushing the asphalt pavement becoming the only heartbeat of this city now.
Those civilians hiding at home, having gone hungry for days and nights, looked desperately through the gaps in their windows at the black-clad thugs outside, who were like killing machines.
They had originally thought the army would come to rescue them, but the army had retreated instead.
The cruel new rules set by Chu Feng began to be strictly enforced in this city of ten million people.
"Bang!" The door to a luxury villa in Beverly Hills was kicked open by a bandit.
A male celebrity, usually glamorous and bright on the screen, was now wearing pajamas, trembling on the ground in fear.
"Take out all the gold, jewelry, and cash in the house! You have three minutes!" the bandit leading the team said, coldly pressing his gun barrel against the celebrity's forehead.
"I'll give it! I'll give it all! Please don't shoot!"
The male celebrity scrambled to the safe, dumping the Patek Philippe watch worth millions of dollars, diamond necklaces, and bundles of cash inside into the bandit's black tactical backpack.
"This will only get you three days of water and food."
The bandit tossed down two bottles of mineral water and a few pieces of dry bread, then turned and left, carrying the heavy backpack.
It wasn't just celebrities and the wealthy; even ordinary senior programmers from Silicon Valley, Wall Street traders, and even some leaders of underground gangs were all indiscriminately looted by this terrifying black torrent.
In Los Santos, US dollars had completely become waste paper for wiping one's ass.
Chu Feng's army monopolized ninety-five percent of the city's food and water.
To survive, these once high-and-mighty elites had to hand over all the hard currency they had accumulated in their lifetimes.
At the Global Financial Center's underground material storage depot, heavy truck after heavy truck drove into the underground garage.
The cargo doors opened, and countless boxes filled with gold, loose diamonds, luxury watches, and bearer bonds were carried down, piling up into mountains of treasure that shimmered with blinding light.
...
In the top-floor presidential suite, after two whole hours of crazy baptism, the water in the bathroom finally calmed down.
Chu Feng draped a black silk bathrobe over himself and walked refreshed to the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window to sit down.
With a thought, he opened the system panel in his mind.
[Ding! Detected that the city-wide looting operation in Los Santos is ongoing...]
[Detected a large amount of gold, jewelry, and hard currency flowing into the system vault, currently performing high-level conversion...]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining Wealth Points: 28,000 points!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining Wealth Points: 45,000 points!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining Wealth Points: 72,000 points!]
Looking at the Wealth Points balance, which was jumping crazily and skyrocketing, Chu Feng's eyes grew brighter and brighter!
This was the true thrill of harvesting a metropolis with a population of ten million!
Compared to robbing bank vaults before, this tyrant's rule of directly penning up ten million people and squeezing every drop of their flesh, blood, and resources made money faster than printing it!
"Boss." Just then, the emotionless voice of the Bandit Commander came through the tactical communicator on the table.
"We caught a big fish while clearing out Beverly Hills."
"Furthermore, we discovered a secret underground fortress belonging to a Silicon Valley tech tycoon in the abandoned subway network beneath Los Santos!"
