Chapter 106 City Hall (End)

With a bang, the handle of the whisk made a crisp sound when it touched the ground, and it shouted: "The time has come, welcome back the boss!"

Fu Chen rehearsed this sentence countless times just to please Bai Tao.

However, it worshipped the wrong person.

A huge beam of light comparable to the sun shines on it.

Fu Chen: "Guangguangguangguang——" It got up and ran towards Baitao, "Boss, help, help——" Not only did it lose its veteran demeanor, but it also stuttered and broke its voice.

Bai Tao: "Get lost!"

Fu Chen ran in front of Bai Tao, stopped suddenly and turned, letting the beam of light behind him pass.

Bai Tao has already seen that the self-awareness in these beams of light that are supposed to be part of the mayor is not even as good as that of a whisk.

The moment he entered the black space, the mayor's consciousness disappeared.

Outside of the Town Hall instance, particles are just particles, not mayors.

What remains now is pure energy with no one to control it.

The light beam completely illuminates the darkness, but it comes at a price. The brightness keeps decreasing, and the area that can be illuminated is getting smaller and smaller. The only thing that remains unchanged is that it faithfully executes the order issued by the mayor - to attack Bai Tao.

As long as we delay for a while, Bai Tao will be able to deal with the beam without any effort.

But Bai Tao did not choose to do so. Energy is conserved. If Bai Tao does not accept this energy and lets it dissipate, it will only strengthen the enemy.

That's right, enemies. Even though Fu Chen kept calling her boss, Bai Tao still felt that she didn't consider them as her own people. Fu Chen and other objects were not her own people, but they were not enemies either. The real enemy was the space in which the objects lived.

It is alive and has occupied a place outside the special space copy of Dream City.

The sudden appearance of the light beam woke it up. It was eating the light beam. Bai Tao discovered that its breath was the same as the breath of the one that devoured the remains of the Dameng Entertainment copy after it was destroyed.

So just let her handle the beam.

Having experience in dealing with the Nadusong Company, he can easily deal with the beams that carry the consciousness of the world of ghost stories.

The clone puppet appeared behind the beam of light. The brainless beam stopped suddenly, looked left and right, with a head full of question marks, unable to tell which one was its target.

Bai Tao and Xiao Bai worked together to absorb the light beam into their bodies.

In an instant, Bai Tao turned into a fluorescent lamp, sacrificing (crossed out) no sacrifice, illuminating the darkness.

I poked my stomach, the fluorescent lights went out, darkness returned, and without food, this space fell into sleep again.

Fu Chen rolled over and knelt not far from Bai Tao: "Boss, you are mighty, and you are wise!"

Bai Tao: "Get lost!"

"Okay." Fu Chen did a backflip and disappeared from Bai Tao's sight.

Xiaobai: 'Puchi, it's so interesting.'

Baitao: "..."

Xiaobai is much more active than usual.

Is it because of the place? Or is it because the citizens' favorability has increased and she herself has been affected by the dungeon?

All the ghost story copies that Bai Tao has participated in in the past have one characteristic: the closer you are to completing the copy goal, the greater the impact of the copy will be.

Bai Tao examined herself and found no signs of being affected by the copy.

The mayor tried his best to stop Bai Tao from improving the favorability of citizens. It seems that high favorability of citizens is not a bad thing, otherwise the mayor would not try so hard.

The Town Hall copy is different. You can only enter by invitation, and the threshold is to hold at least one-tenth of the world consciousness fragments of the ghost story world.

The Lord of the City of Dreams is the literal Lord of the City?

Bai Tao was not in a hurry. She would have time to find the answer after she went out.

With a snap of fingers, the border shrank again.

Bai Tao walked out openly. This time there was no one outside, not a NPC, not the mayor.

No one lined up to welcome her, which made Bai Tao feel a little lonely.

He randomly broke into a residential building, and the citizen acting as an NPC inside slowly turned his head, turning a blind eye to the broken window, and asked, "Sir, mayor candidate, what can I do for you?"

Bai Tao: "I'm fine, I just want to ask, do you need help?"

If the NPC citizens had self-awareness, they would definitely give Bai Tao six points.

But she didn't.

"Yes, Mr. City Lord Candidate, I need your help." He said the request that had been prepared long ago.

It's as if the NPC is issuing tasks to the players.

Player Bai Tao accepted the tasks [Send a love letter to citizen A] [Find a cat] [Find a dog] [Call the child home for dinner]...

Except that the NPCs are not human, all the tasks have a sense of life.

Bai Tao was running around in the Dream City while completing the tasks of the citizen NPC.

Bai Tao's running around was not aimless. The two marks, one on Xiao Liu, had been removed, while the other, more hidden mark was still on the target person.

It seems to be running around, but the distance between it and the Piranha Plant is getting closer and closer.

Resident Satisfaction Statistics Bureau Safe House

A small, cute light projection slowly fell down, holding its chest.

"I'm sorry, children. I'm too weak to protect our home."

The Piranha's eyes turned red: "Mr. Mayor!"

The mayor weakly raised his arms: "Don't cry, I'm dead, you have to continue my unfinished work and continue to fight the invaders--"

Sensing someone's presence, his voice stopped abruptly, his eyes rolled back, he fainted, and the projection gradually dissipated.

A group of monsters couldn't hold back their tears and couldn't help shouting, "Mr. Mayor!"

The next moment, the door was kicked open.

Bai Tao looked around and only found particles that had dissipated long ago, and they were running quite fast.

The atmosphere of sadness was interrupted and replaced by the rage of revenge.

"You bastard, I want you to pay with your life!"

Bai Tao tilted her head: “?”

Pay with life? Whose life? Why did she remember that she didn't kill anyone in this instance?

Bai Tao held down the unknown soldier who was about to self-destruct: "Pay your life? A pebble? Do you recognize it?" That guy was not killed by Bai Tao. If he wants to pay with his life, he should find a hungry ghost.

"Bah, why are you acting stupid?"

Bai Tao smiled slightly, flashed behind the person who was speaking, and hit him on the back of the head. She was not playing dumb, but tactically delaying time, and then she would deal with you one by one.

It is difficult to subdue one person, and it is even more difficult to subdue a group of people, but in front of Bai Tao, even a few more people are not a problem.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Seven people lay on the board together. Bai Tao clapped her hands and said, "Very good. Everyone is here."

Bai Tao squatted down and said, "If I remember correctly, you are all employees of the Resident Satisfaction Statistics Bureau. Can you help me see my current citizen favorability rating?"

No one spoke, and the Piranha Plant told its companions how to deal with the problem of not wasting time talking to Bai Tao.

Bai Tao sighed: "Well, if you don't want to tell me, then I can only go to your mayor."

After some talking, someone finally couldn't help but speak up: "You can't find the mayor. She's dead."

Bai Tao: "Oh? How did he die?"

"Come closer and I'll tell you."

Bai Tao: OK

The clone changed its shape and appeared in front of the employee of the Resident Satisfaction Statistics Bureau.

Let me see what you want to do.

A fuse fell out from the employee's clothes, from the top of his trouser legs to a place other than his trouser pocket: "Hahahaha, go to hell."

Baitao: "..."

After a moment's silence, he removed the illusion and stripped the seven captives who still retained their dignity.

——You know how to hide things, right? I shaved all your hair off.

Thankful for my clone, thankful for having you.

These seven guys are different from Xiao Liu. They are all tough guys and Xiao Liu's method is useless against them.

Then place play.

Then he started tinkering with the machine in the safe house. Without the mayor's broadcast, Bai Tao could only check the citizens' favorability by himself. The current citizens' favorability is 100%+, which is off the charts, and the last line of defense is also down.

In this copy, after dealing with the mayor, you can immediately enter the simple mode.

He pulled a chair over and sat in front of the seven prisoners. He rummaged around in his chest and pulled out a small mass of particles.

"Does he look familiar? Your mayor!"

Outside the room, the mayor watched the safe house cautiously. The expected deafening explosion did not occur. The plan failed. He cursed his subordinates for being useless and was about to retreat quietly when he moved slightly and sensed something.

The mayor gritted his teeth, thief, robber!

You can't leave. If you leave, you can't get it back.

Just when I was trying to figure out how to get back everything I had lost, I saw particles flying towards me.

mayor:"!!!"

Oh no, it’s a trap!

But it was too late. The space was blocked and the mayor particles in this area had nowhere to go and were caught in one fell swoop.

After bottling the particle balls, Bai Tao shook her head and said, "He was caught so easily?"

These are almost the majority of the mayor's remaining particles. There are still some that slip through the net, but they are of no significance.

He shook the bottle left and right, making the mayor dizzy: "You are still alive and well, aren't you? Why did your men say you were dead?"

He carried the bottle back to the house and said, "Look who I found?"

The prisoner didn't want to see it, but his eyelids were forced open, and he could only watch as the mayor, who had been declared dead not long ago, was trapped in a small glass bottle.

Captives: "......"

Looking at the mayor who came back from the dead, one of them said with a complicated expression: "Mayor, you are not dead..."

A melodramatic eight o'clock drama!

Bai Tao was very considerate and gave space for conversation to the newly reunited captives who had a lot to talk about.

Mayor: Playing dead.jpg

The employees of the Resident Satisfaction Statistics Bureau are not fools. Even if they thought it was Bai Tao's illusion at first, as time passed, the mayor's illusion never disappeared. Even the Piranha Plant who trusted the mayor the most knew that they had been deceived.

The lie was exposed, and without Bai Tao's instigation, a rift between the captives and the mayor emerged.

Bai Tao: "Are you sure your memories are real?"

No one replied, but Bai Tao was not in a hurry.

The third day that the staff of the Resident Satisfaction Statistics Bureau were held captive.

Baitao: "Nineteen-eight..."

Everyone knows what Bai Tao is counting down.

"...three, two, one"

"My name is Bai Tao. From now on, I am the lord of the City of Dreams." The declarations echoed over the City of Dreams and did not fade away for a long time.

Inside and outside the copy, in the two dimensions of the Dream City, all living creatures stopped moving and could not move at all. The only thing they could do was listen to the announcement of the first lord of the Dream City.

The courier company delivers express to anywhere. Ma Ren and Miss Yang looked at each other, and joy appeared in their eyes at the same time. Bai Tao succeeded/Bai Tao became the city lord!

At this moment, everyone knew that Dream City had a new city lord, whose name was Bai Tao.

But no one knew that these words were not said by Bai Tao.

The moment the countdown ended, countless pieces of information flooded into Bai Tao's mind and impacted her consciousness. Bai Tao stood there motionless, unaware of anything happening in the outside world.

Everything in the Town Hall copy is still like the outside world, but there are always exceptions.

“Bang, bang, bang—”

Inside the glass bottle, the mayor rolled herself into a ball and kept bumping against the wall. She was a spiritual being and would not get tired. Water dripping through a stone would wear away the stone, and she broke out of the bottle.

"I'm out!" After flying in the air for two circles happily, he looked at Bai Tao with resentment, "Want to be the city lord? No way!"

As he spoke, he crashed into Bai Tao, and the particles entered Bai Tao's body and disappeared.
