452. Shadows in the sun


Despite this, the mechanical cyborg has not been able to truly threaten the status of the superpowers.

One is because the number of superpowers is scarce, and it is not easy to awaken into a superpower, while mechanical prostheses are relatively easy to obtain, at various price points, everyone can do what they can with their own spending power, although the combat power blessed by mechanical prostheses at different prices can be described as a world of difference, and the cheapest mechanical prosthetics are likely to be able to be used as a "physical holy sword", but it is also a little stronger than bare-handed.

And because there are still a few disabled people in this world after all, although the mechanical prosthetics connected to the flesh and blood may be more convenient in control, but the ordinary mechanical exoskeleton is not much worse than it, plus the existence of the arrow group that focuses on high-end mechanical external armor, resulting in the further scarcity of the existence of mechanical transformation people In the final analysis, in this era, everyone can enjoy the convenience brought by science and technology, but the "mysterious power" of the superpowers is their own patent.

Moreover, there is a certain overlap between these two groups to a certain extent, like the kind of superpower who is disabled due to an accident, and is equipped with a mechanical prosthesis, doesn't it become a "super-mechanical transformer".

Therefore, compared to the incompatibility between the two groups of biocybos and superhumans, the relationship between mechanical cyboids and superpowers has eased too much.

However, there is no doubt that due to the rapid development of science and technology, it is difficult for the superpowers, who originally had absolute superiority, to influence the world situation at will, and although individual "natural disaster-level" bigwigs still have the same effect as nuclear deterrence, the world as a whole has entered the stage where a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend.

Against this backdrop, Blackstar and his followers staged an armed coup d'état in Mexico, completely destroying the Mexican government, which was already on the verge of collapse, and plunging the whole of Mexico into anarchic chaos.

At this time, Blackstar raised his arms and established the "Blackstar City" named after him on the Gulf Coast, and declared to the world that Blackstar City will never have any laws, and all actions are allowed here, as long as you can bear the consequences of your actions.

This declaration has undoubtedly attracted the attention of countless criminals and potential criminals, a real sense of "extralegal land" is what they have been longing for, but no one dares to really risk the world's condemnation to be this bird, the reason is also very simple, whether from the perspective of social stability, or from the vision of the vast majority of people, this is the real sense of "going against the sky" Despite Blackstar's reputation throughout the Supercriminals, in reality, no one believed that Blackstar City could be built as they wished, and almost everyone, including the Supercriminals who were not members of the Blackstar Society, looked at Blackstar and his followers with a sense of joke, watching how they were exterminated by the "Righteous Masters" of all countries in the world.

However, to everyone's surprise, at the critical juncture when Black Star set out to establish "Black Star City", several superpowers that should have responded quickly fell silent almost at the same moment and invariably, no matter how much the civil protests have boiled, the high-level government officials just did not take any substantive action, let alone "encirclement and suppression", and they did not even bother to do the slightest action to "support justice".

Some people say that there are dirty deals between Black Star and the high-level governments of various countries, some people say that Black Star City was originally the result of a compromise between various superpowers, and some people simply think that Black Star is actually the spokesperson of several superpowers who pushed them to the front of the stage.

I'm afraid that this will become an unsolved case for the ages.

Of course, at the beginning of the establishment of Black Star City, there were all kinds of righteous superpowers and reformers who wanted to obstruct it, but due to the lack of a unified organization, the loose alliance formed by the "righteous people" was repelled several times by the Black Star Society and the criminals gathered under its command for various reasons, and there were various casualties, so in the end, the crusade against "Black Star City" was over.

Without all kinds of obstacles, Black Star City has also entered a period of rapid development.

Although there is no legal constraint, the problem of the collapse of order and all kinds of chaos in the city emerges one after another, but it is surprising that such a place that is almost destined to be impossible to develop has grown so savagely because of the lack of rules and regulations, and has corresponded to all kinds of chaos, such as the industry, the gambling industry, drugs, arms, the Colosseum, the slave trade, all the illegal things that normal people can think of, and even the things that have been eliminated by history, are all perfectly reproduced here.

After all, it has become a paradise for criminals, and although the inhabitants of Blackstar City are living precarious lives, countless people still rush to this "capital of sin" It is no exaggeration to say that the people who still stay in Black Star City, even if they are just unarmed ordinary people, almost all have more or less "sinful" blood in their bodies, and almost all of them have various criminal records, none of them are completely innocent But it is precisely because of this that some people have raised the question of why not just use some weapons of mass destruction and wipe them off the world map since there are almost no innocent people in Black Star City This kind of argument that sounds quite extreme has actually existed since the founding of Black Star City, but after all, no one has really implemented it, in fact, the reason is quite simple, that is, there are big and small evils, and they cannot be generalized.

That's right, there are indeed a lot of evildoers and murderers in Black Star City, this kind of guy with innocent blood on his hands can be said to be inescapable, but in addition to this kind of person, the vast majority of the residents in Black Star City are only stealing things and pimping the existence, which is really not a crime to death, if it is really mixed up, and directly launch a nuclear bomb, although it is convenient, but it is inevitably a little untenable in terms of justice.

However, although all kinds of criticism of the existence of Black Star City have not decreased, for some reason, in recent years, the opposition of the people of various countries to Black Star City seems to be getting smaller and smaller, and the huge wave that could have destroyed the golden shock stone is gradually disappearing into invisibility.

The reason for this is that even ordinary people, no matter how dull they are, seem to have discovered a problem As fugitives from all over the world flock to the vicinity of Blackstar City, crime rates in other areas seem to have decreased to varying degrees:
