Soon, news spread that Ye Shaoheng had been demoted and Shi Yin was no longer in charge, further fueling public discontent.
In the second month, the food rations decreased, and some people couldn't resist eating the strange food in the "gentle pleasure quarters," and their bodies began to rot. Some people saw the people they wanted to see, but fell asleep in their arms and never woke up again. Some people fell asleep by the roadside and never woke up again.
By the third month, everyone had become aware of the horror of the "gentle embrace" and their fear and rebellious sentiments had surged.
In the fourth month, an "insider" revealed that the Consul General was detained for expressing his dissatisfaction, and no one dared to voice any opposition. Only then did everyone realize that they hadn't seen the Consul General for several months.
Meanwhile, with Ye Shaoheng's help, the underground resistance organization secretly "brought out" its leader, and from then on, the resistance organization was fully established.
Shion: [Are you sure no one is left in the building?]
Consul General: [Yes, everyone's out protesting. My voice's gone hoarse from shouting. How are you going to repay me? (smiling emoji)]
Shi Yin: [Don't send the smiling emoji randomly. It's not a smile; among young people, it's used as an insult.]
Leader: [That's exactly what I meant (smiling emoji)]
The Commander-in-Chief [disobeyed my orders, sent me out without my permission, and didn't even tell me the plan (smiling.jpg)]
Leader: [You're quite capable, aren't you? Look at you, so confident! (smile.jpg) x3]
Leader: [You just wait (smiling.jpg) x10]
Shi Yin shuddered as she held her phone.
I should have known better than to send the text message. It would have been better if I hadn't sent it at all. She should have had complete faith in the leader's abilities. Asking anything would have been pointless.
"Sigh, isn't that unnecessary?" Shi Yin put down her phone and looked out the window.
The square was packed with people. People were standing on the square, on the rooftops, on abandoned cars, and even in the trees. They were densely packed in front of the doomsday beacon. As far as the eye could see, there was a sea of people, completely surrounding the place.
"Protest! Protest! The country should protect the safety of its people. How can it ignore the crisis?"
"Those who cannot protect the people should step down!"
"Get out! We want to get out! We refuse to be a silent slaughterhouse!"
"This is not a haven of gentle pleasures, but a silent slaughterhouse; this is hell, hell!"
"We need to get out!"
Shi Yin's face paled for a moment, and she couldn't help but take a step back, her hands hidden in her sleeves trembling slightly.
How could the gentle haven collapse so quickly? Back then, Belfinger's gentle haven maintained its normalcy for a long time thanks to Ye Shaoheng's repeated breakthroughs, even though he was just a person with a strong will but weak strength.
How could it be that [Shiyin], who has already reached the pinnacle of arrogance, has built such a powerful haven of gentleness, and yet chaos in space and time has appeared so quickly?
From the moment the Gentle Paradise began, Shi Yin has been continuously channeling power to influence an entire region. The length of time Shi Yin has maintained the Gentle Paradise is directly proportional to the length of the area it influences.
Shiyin is essentially a person from the new world, while almost all ordinary people and superpowered individuals actually belong to the old era, that is, the original Earth. The two have conflicting auras.
Under normal circumstances, there's nothing wrong with it; it's just that they inexplicably don't like each other.
However, nowadays, people from the old era are united and determined, with an unstoppable momentum. This situation is not as simple as just being slightly resistant.
"The dream of a life of pleasure is nothing but a lie. Humanity should not be succumbing to this illusion. We must live in the name of humanity." The leader stepped forward: "Humanity may make mistakes, and may be blinded, but we will always wake up. Humanity is tenacious and unyielding."
"A hymn to humanity, to the small yet magnificent miracle!" Ye Shaoheng stepped forward, raising his spear: "We must get out!"
Since Ye Shaoheng's superpower evolved into that of a knight wielding a gun, his spare weapon has changed from an ordinary machete to a specially made spear.
The leader and Ye Shaoheng ignited people's emotions, and as they watched Shi Yin slowly walk out, their emotions were further ignited.
"go out!"
"go out!!"
"go out!!!"
"Click".
A crack appeared in the sky.
Everyone stared wide-eyed as a massive crack of power appeared in the azure sky, the dark red fissure standing out starkly against the blue backdrop.
Human morale soared, and the shouts grew louder.
The general's words were: "We hope that even the smallest speck of dust and mist can supplement the beauty of mountains and seas, and the faint light of a firefly can enhance the brilliance of the sun and moon!"
People shouted, but the leader's words were so cultured that some people wanted to shout along, but they couldn't memorize them.
"We are not afraid of sacrifice, but we fear losing our future and dying with nothing!" Ye Shaoheng took another step forward: "Forward!"
"Forward! Forward! Forward!!"
The crowd roared again.
Shi Yin didn't speak, but just stared silently at the sky. The crack was getting bigger and bigger, but Shi Yin could tell that it was almost at its limit. Although it was expanding, the speed was very slow.
This was actually expected, given how sudden Ishtar's death was.
This haven of comforts encompasses the five remaining major nations.
Yanlong Kingdom has its general leader and Ye Shaoheng leading the advance, Volga has Tyr leading the battle, Milica has Ji Chuan infecting emotions, and Wilren's Hermod also has plenty of methods.
However, Ishtar's death was too sudden. Although it brought Shion a better state, Lulan's morale was hard to reach the standard without his backbone.
With the emperor far away and the heavens high, Shi Yin could never extend her reach that far all the time.
"I still have to take action..." Shi Yin frowned.
However, Shi Yin is not good at breaking through the gentle embrace of love. This is not modesty; Shi Yin has never been good at this kind of illusion.
Besides the fact that she wasn't exactly resolute, as she was willing to admit, another reason was that Shi Yin had too many memories. When those memories became confused, it was difficult to distinguish between memories and hallucinations, and her memories were prone to becoming chaotic.
Moreover, the ability nullification of both Shion actually worked on both sides. Using power while being suppressed by the ability nullification was actually a bit tricky.
"Looks like I'll have to use my emotional abilities." Shi Yin sighed softly, and light condensed in her palm.
"Bang!"
A loud bang suddenly erupted from the crack in the sky, and Shi Yin stopped moving and looked up at the sky.
The dark red crack in the sky grew larger, this time with countless fissures appearing. The larger crack made it clearer; it wasn't a pure dark red, but rather an indescribable chaos.
"Outside the long pavilion, along the ancient road, the fragrant grass stretches to the horizon."
Everyone's emotions jolted, and even Shi Yin looked up at the rooftop of the doomsday beacon.
A familiar voice.
However, he shouldn't have superpowers.
Shi Yin saw that there were more than a dozen empty syringes at the feet of Kita Kiyokawa, who was standing on high.
That's not just about performance-enhancing drugs!
Shi Yin had explicitly forbidden the use of the three drugs simultaneously, and that no more than two vials could be used at a time. However, Kita Kiyokawa not only used all the stimulants he could get his hands on, but also used a treatment to alleviate his body's intolerance.
"The evening breeze caresses the willows, the flute's melody fades, the setting sun shines beyond the mountains
