Eerie creatures descend upon Earth, rules become humanity's final showdown against the unspeakabl...
The city of Vina has many gangs, which have varying degrees of influence on different chosen ones.
Some chosen ones choose to join forces with the darkness, becoming undercover agents in gangs to spy on the darkest side of the world; others are chased and forced to flee, yet they are powerless against these guerrilla-style villains.
A thug isn't scary; what's scary is a thug with education.
Gang members typically operate in small groups. Some are responsible for monitoring patrol robots and the Bureau of Inspectorate personnel, some are responsible for taking action, and some are responsible for cleaning up, all in one smooth motion, perfectly avoiding the penalties imposed by the new rules in the outer city.
Give these chosen ones a taste of indigenous awe.
Only those chosen ones who joined the company were fortunate enough to find a reliable backer, barely managing to keep this group of people away.
Even Jennifer, when performing magic outside, has encountered harassment from gang members who wanted to extort protection money from her. This group didn't resort to violence, as that would be breaking the law; they simply stood menacingly to the side, barging in to block anyone who approached, scaring away any onlookers who dared not come closer.
She, the chosen one of the Lavender Country, can endure the grievances of your native people?
Jennifer realized they were exploiting loopholes in the new regulations, but she was helpless and even afraid that if she made a move, they would stage an accident on her. So she packed her things and went back to the poor people's apartment early.
This is why she and Yin Zhu arrived at the apartment one after the other that day.
As for Yin Zhu, because she was too obedient in the "safe house," she completely missed out on this rich life experience. First, she went to the library, then she went to stake out the daughter of the supervisory bureau's squad leader, then she stayed at Mary's house, and finally she went directly into the inner city.
Therefore, if someone asks a gang member about Yin Zhu, they will likely only get a completely bewildered answer:
Who is she?
"Never seen it before, never have I ever seen it before."
"No such person found. Are you new here?"
"Never heard of it."
...
As the worms said, they stayed inside for too long, and no one came looking for them; not even a warrant appeared on the official website of the city of Vena.
By the way, the webpages on this official website are free to view.
It was truly a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
Otherwise, think about it: if you want to check if you're wanted by the authorities, you actually have to pay money to get access to a webpage. Isn't that a bit too pathetic?
The official authorities of Vina City did not issue arrest warrants for Yin Zhu and others, not out of kindness, but because the inner city was under lockdown.
A prominent article appeared on the official website titled "Notice of Citywide Lockdown in the Inner City of Viña," which stated that a severe outbreak of Cybervirus had occurred in the inner city. In order to better control the infected and prevent them from escaping and infecting more humans, it was decided to lock down the inner city.
Therefore, during this period, neither senior citizens in the inner city nor junior citizens in the outer city are allowed to enter or leave.
"It seems like we can't get out."
Jennifer recounted the story in a declarative tone, but without the slightest concern.
After all, the chosen ones come here to find a way to clear the level.
Flying Fish was a little surprised: "They're that strong?"
Yin Zhu sensed something was wrong and quickly asked, "It wasn't your organization that did it?"
“Perhaps.” The worm’s expression also changed slightly. “We were indeed planning to have our members outside cause trouble to force a short-term lockdown of the inner city, but they shouldn’t be able to affect the inner city…”
In other words, the lockdown was part of their plan.
However, the lockdown due to Cyber Disease was definitely not the organization's intention; rather, something similar had actually happened in the inner city of Vena.
Yin Zhu thought of something and immediately spent 20 Vena coins to buy a news article.
In an instant, the truth was revealed to everyone.
The latest online news, published just ten minutes ago, reads: "The resistance organization attempted to storm the inner city of Vena City, but encountered a Cybervirus infected person who had escaped from the inner city. Our city's security personnel immediately notified the Bureau of Supervision. One hour and twenty minutes later, all members of the resistance organization and the Cybervirus infected person were killed."
"Damn it."
This number of casualties was completely unexpected.
Suddenly, all the information about Cyber disease flashed through Yin Zhu's mind, whether it was what Mary's mother had said to her, or what she had said to her husband behind his back, whether it was Xiao Qiang's memories, or the news report just now:
"...They said it's Cyber Disease, it's contagious...it's under control...but I suspect they're lying to us...I think we should stay away from Vena City..."
This is the perspective of frontline workers.
"But the gods will solve this problem."
However, she had to appear respectful and unquestionable towards the gods, lest people discover that she had begun to doubt them.
"Our supervisory bureau can only arrest and detain all those infected to prevent them from harming the outside world."
Is it really just about catching them?
"All those infected with cybernetics need to be [destroyed]."
No, the truth is destruction.
"And that great chaos was because a [god] was also infected with the cyber disease, and He did not want to be [destroyed]."
Even gods can get sick.
"...The Cybervirus infected individuals who escaped from the inner city...one hour and twenty minutes later, all members of the resistance organization and the Cybervirus infected individuals were killed."
The inner city could no longer control these cybervirus infections, so they simply locked down the city to protect the people in the outer city.
Or perhaps, it's simply to prevent unnecessary loss of the gods' property. Once the gods, still in their right minds, have finished their purge, these lower-ranking citizens in the outer city will likely have to accept a complete cleansing of the inner city's power.
"May I ask a question?" Hirano San suddenly spoke up.
She was speaking to the flying fish.
Feiyu looked at the polite woman and blushed slightly. Indeed, with her pink charm, Hirano San was probably as beautiful as a goddess reincarnated.
"sure."
"I'm so sorry, my question might be presumptuous, and I hope it offends you unintentionally..." Hirano San began to express her politeness as usual.
Yin Zhu slapped Hirano Shan on the back with a loud "smack": "Get to the point."
“Ah…” Hirano Shan was startled and glared angrily at Yin Zhu before regaining her composure. She looked at Fei Yu with elegance and asked softly, “When you were young, did something similar happen in the inner city? I see that you don’t seem to have a strong reaction to the outbreak of Cyber Disease in the inner city.”
Flying Fish stroked his chin, thought seriously about the question, and after a long while, said:
"Indeed, when I was three years old, there was a cyber disease outbreak in the inner city. I was very young at the time and was locked in a box by my parents. All I could hear was the sound of my parents fighting with that monster."
"That matter was later covered up because it involved the fall of more than a dozen gods."
