You win!

Tsk tsk, I'm quitting, I'm quitting.

Can't afford to offend

That's just how honest Boss Long Ao is.

Even his mother has been brought up; it seems Boss Long Ao is determined to check out the exclusive zone.

The streamer should hurry up and give in, or the mother of the powerful Dragon Pride boss will be very formidable.

Anyway, I'm quitting.

I also withdrew.

Long Ao, remember to share with us later what the air in the exclusive zone is like!

Mo Longao had absolutely expected everyone to withdraw; it would have been strange if they hadn't, given that he had already brought up his mother. It's worth noting that he rarely invokes his mother's name.

Of course, that doesn't stop others from knowing that he has such an awesome mother.

However, what others knew did not mean that Li Lechen knew. Seeing that the price had already reached more than 500 million, everyone withdrew from the competition after Mo Longao's words, which naturally made him very unhappy.

"Why did you all withdraw? Mo Longao, what are you doing? I only have one spot, of course it's the highest bidder wins!"

Upon hearing this, everyone knew that the top-tier streamer in the exclusive zone probably didn't understand the deeper meaning of Mo Longao's words. Perhaps the live streaming platform's signal had just started covering the exclusive zone, so there were many things that everyone else knew that those in the exclusive zone might not.

So many people started to enthusiastically explain, even though the style was a bit off.

Hey streamer, Long Ao's mom is awesome!

The kind of awesomeness that comes from having the power of life and death

The streamer should just give in to Boss Long Ao. Forget about having a hundred million, he'd even pay you a hundred million if you paid him.

Don't exaggerate like that upstairs, it'll scare the streamer.

Are even exclusive zones afraid of law enforcement?

Everyone fears the law enforcement machine.

However, if the streamer didn't do anything wrong, they probably won't be subjected to humanitarian persecution.

If that's the case, then our fair bidding streamers opening portals haven't broken any laws, so why should we be afraid of being humanitarianly annihilated?

Criticizing the government is enough to warrant being condemned by humanitarian authorities.

Don't label me randomly, I'm a law-abiding citizen.

It's like they're the ones breaking the law. But no matter how careful you are, there will always be loopholes; they just aren't checked. If they were, they could be humanitarianly destroyed in a heartbeat.

Piracy is actually prohibited, but it hasn't been mentioned much since over 600 years ago.

That's right. If they were truly convicted, selling pirated water purification pills, 7D-printed fruits and vegetables, and the like could be subject to humanitarian extermination.

Hearing everyone talking about "humanitarian destruction," Li Lechen, though not fully understanding, roughly knew that Mo Longao, or rather his mother, was likely closely related to this so-called "humanitarian destruction." Something like a police chief?

But Li Lechen was still very upset about it: "I used to have so much money to earn, but now I've lost hundreds of millions of yuan. It's made me lose the desire to open a portal."

Upon hearing that Li Lechen was somewhat reluctant to open the portal, Mo Longao became anxious and exclaimed, "No way! How about I offer three hundred million?"

"Someone just bid up to 500 million. If no one threatens it, I reckon it could reach several billion."

Mo Longao didn't doubt this either, especially someone like Lin Sen, who could easily spend three to five billion to go to the exclusive zone.

But I can't afford that much money.

Mo Longao has no natural resources or company businesses. The reason he has permanent residency in Anqu District and is quite powerful there is indeed because he has an awesome mother.

And his mother, that's right, is in charge of the 399 million law enforcement machines on Earth.

If calculated per capita, each person could be monitored by nearly four law enforcement agencies. As someone mentioned in the comments earlier, it would be a matter of minutes if someone were to be humanitarianly killed; there's no shortage of reasons to justify it.

Faced with Li Lechen's complaints, Mo Longao thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I'll have my mother give you a pardon. If you make a mistake, you'll be exempted from one instance of humanitarian destruction."

"How could I possibly be destroyed by humanitarianism?" Li Lechen said indignantly.

It was a little better before he knew what humanitarian annihilation was, but after learning that it was a form of punishment that involved instantly turning someone to ashes, Li Lechen was genuinely devastated. He was actually a law-abiding citizen, and especially after learning some of the rules, he certainly wouldn't break them easily. Besides, he wasn't doing anything...

But upon thinking of this, Li Lechen suddenly paused.

If your previous violation of environmental protection laws were taken seriously and investigated, you wouldn't be wrongly accused of humanitarian extermination.

Mo Longao casually sent a comment.

For Li Lechen, that matter was secondary, since it was already in the past, but there was clearly another matter that was imminent.

"Can you really give me a get-out-of-jail-free card?" Li Lechen asked.

Naturally, the government is adamant; whether one more or one less death is of no concern to them.

Mo Longao spoke so bluntly that Li Lechen didn't know how to respond.

Regardless of whether he can avoid the bizarre physical examination at the ball park, and regardless of whether he should follow Huo Jiujian's suggestion to become a permanent resident of Anqu District, at least having a "get-out-of-jail-free card" is definitely a good thing. And the price is really too small for Li Lechen.

"One hundred million plus a get-out-of-jail-free card, deal!"

Wait a moment!

"Hey, what else do you want?"

I need ten minutes

"No, five minutes."

The portal can stay open for a maximum of ten minutes; giving me only five minutes is cruel.

"Then give me two get-out-of-jail-free cards."

No way! If my mom gets angry, she might not give me a single penny. Besides, do you really think a get-out-of-jail-free card is worth billions?

In matters of life and death, a get-out-of-jail-free card is indeed worth more than all wealth. After all, one must be alive to spend money properly; if one turns to ashes, no amount of money is more than a number.

In fact, Li Lechen's insistence was just to highlight the special nature of the exclusive zone. If the gate were opened too easily, anyone could open a portal for him with a little money. How could people live like that?

In the end, the two agreed that Li Lechen would open the portal for ten minutes, and Mo Longao would pay a price of one hundred million plus a get-out-of-jail-free card.

The so-called "get-out-of-jail-free card" was actually just a word from Mo Long'ao. According to Mo Long'ao himself, being subjected to humanitarian annihilation wasn't something that could be done overnight; there would be a notification, an execution time, and it wouldn't be officially carried out until the time was up. Therefore, as long as someone asked him for help during this period, he could get his mother to exempt them from the death penalty.

However, Mo Longao repeatedly emphasized that his authority was not very great. Signing contracts once or twice was fine, but if it happened too often, it might even implicate his mother. In that case, he would lose all his power and be left with nothing.

Li Lechen was naturally not greedy. It was already a rare opportunity to be spared from death, so he gladly accepted Mo Longao's request to open the portal.

Now that the portal had been opened with Mo Longao, the live stream could no longer continue.

Everyone watched Li Lechen log off with a mixture of envy, resentment, and jealousy, knowing that the super-rich player in the exclusive zone and the big shot with permanent residency in the safe zone had already... well, they were already mixed up.
