Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

"The birth rate among ordinary people kept decreasing, with many no longer desiring to have offspring. Even for those who desired to have remaining descendants, the exorbitant cost made it nearly impossible."

"At this point, the poor began to realize the frightening reality of the situation, and some among the rich also noticed the trend that seemed to be leading humanity towards extinction. Consequently, a terrifying conflict erupted during that period! Countless poor people, due to poverty, gradually lost their dignity, freedom, and even the right to reproduce.

Some enlightened individuals began to rise up in resistance!"

"However, how could unarmed civilians be opponents to the artificial intelligence enforcement units? Rebellions across various regions were quickly quelled!"

"Frightened by the rebellions, the rich suddenly discovered a significant problem—they realized that the poor had no utility for them and could cause immense trouble. In the eyes of these wealthy individuals, the poor were no longer the same species as themselves!"

"As a result, the rich ultimately decided to amend the constitution and implement a human extermination plan."

"It was an incredibly dark era! Countless poor people were massacred and persecuted! According to incomplete records from that time, nearly five hundred million poor people died during that period!"

"In light of this development, it would seem that humanity should have become extinct," Alex couldn't help but remark. "Did any new changes occur afterward?"

"Yes," Field nodded. "Because one wealthy individual discovered that if humanity continued to decline at that rate, the continuity of the human species might be severed. However, he realized he lacked the ability to organize other wealthy individuals to continue with this self-destructive human extermination plan.

So, he began to mobilize the rich to pursue immortality, hoping to develop a method that would grant them eternal life."

"Until... there really appeared a method that could prolong the lives of the rich, and at the same time, this life-extending method had a side effect—turning them into vampires!"

"It can be said that the birth of vampires actually saved humanity because after the wealthy turned into vampires, they discovered that the poor were no longer useless; instead, they became the sustenance essential for their survival..."

Hearing this, Alex was instantly bewildered. Alex looked at Field with some disbelief. Today's story contained a lot of information, making Alex feel a bit overwhelmed.

"It sounds ridiculous, doesn't it? The continuity of humanity is maintained because of these vampires. The appearance of vampires actually saved humanity." Field chuckled self-deprecatingly, and his snowy white beard trembled slightly. "The poor always like to compare themselves to dogs or livestock, but in reality, the poor at that time were not even as good as a dog."

"That's indeed the case..." Alex nodded thoughtfully. In such an extreme situation, the poor were indeed worse off than livestock. After all, livestock could be eaten, could be kept as pets, while humans, besides serving as slaves, didn't have much use. Humans wouldn't choose to eat other humans when there were other food sources available.

In such circumstances, turning the rich into vampires did seem to save the human species.

"At that time, three individuals successfully became vampires and have lived until now—those three vampire ancestors who currently control over fifty percent of the world's wealth. In the capital, most residents are either these three ancestors or relatives of the legislators, including their wives and children."

"Even those twelve legislators are actually relatives of these three ancestors, or even their direct bloodline. So, in the end, this world is actually controlled by these three ancestors!"

Field sighed softly and then looked at Alex with a fervent gaze. "Hero, with your abilities, if you were to infiltrate the capital and massacre these three individuals and their relatives, most of the world's wealth would return to a state of freedom. By then, wealth could be redistributed..."

Alex glanced indifferently at Field, who was full of enthusiasm. Alex didn't take Field's words seriously. Wealth redistribution would bring him no benefits; it would only plunge the world into chaos once again. What Alex aimed to do was to control this world and become its master.

"Mr. Field, where is the artificial intelligence supercomputer you mentioned earlier?"

Alex smiled faintly at Field. Field's knowledge surprised Alex, and he believed that Field couldn't be unaware of the whereabouts of that supercomputer.

From the story Alex heard just now, he obtained a crucial piece of information: the judiciary in this world, the entity wielding the most formidable power, was not the vampires but the artificial intelligence supercomputer, Noah!

If Alex could control the Noah device, he would essentially control the formulation of the world's rules, which was tantamount to mastering the world!

Undoubtedly, the best way to conquer this world was to control this supercomputer!

"You mean... you want to destroy Noah..." Field paused, suddenly becoming more excited. "Yes, yes! As long as Noah is destroyed, or if it can be controlled, it's equivalent to overthrowing the rule of the vampires. Without Noah and those unmanned drones maintaining the rule of the parliament, those upper-class vampires are nothing!"

Alex was speechless and couldn't help but roll his eyes. This old man really had some grandiose ideas.

However, if he were to rule this world himself, at least the human race would live much better than they currently did. In a way, this could be considered a kind of redemption.

Field's excited expression suddenly changed to one of concern. He spoke with a worried tone:

"According to our legends, Noah is located underground in the imperial city of the capital, about ten thousand meters below the surface. It is surrounded by steel and concrete, with the only access being an elevator within the imperial city. Moreover, the elevator is heavily guarded. Therefore, it's practically impossible to enter the location where Noah is stored without permission..."

Alex nodded and calmly said, "Alright, thank you for your help."

After that, Alex leisurely stood up and looked through the window at the crowd outside. He continued, "Additionally, Mr. Field, I need your assistance with something else. I want to select twenty women from among your people. I will transfer my energy to them, enabling them to become superhumans like me. They will assist me in combating the vampires.

Of course, you will also have a super team with abilities similar to mine."
