A screen appeared before their eyes.
[(Asa Akto) is soliciting opinions from all citizens. Do you agree to the condition of "exchanging the Dawn system for the survival of 100 million people"? ]
[Options: Yes (person has selected) / No (person has selected)]
…
"Are you... here to ask for our opinion?" The old lady was surprised and asked, "When will we be able to make the decision?"
"I want to live. Even if it's only one twenty-eighth, I still want to live."
"Forget it. Even if we survive, we will become the 'lower class' of this land." A young man shook his head and pressed the no button with an indignant look on his face: "Die, die, the world should have been destroyed long ago, all the clients should die! All the stupid leaders should die!"
Xiaomei listened to this silently and walked into the black fog.
"Little girl, the black fog outside is very dangerous, don't go out!" A kind-hearted lady wanted to stop her, but Xiaomei had already walked away.
She stumbled along, coughing as she walked.
During the time she was seeing the doctor, she kept thinking that she was born inferior and lived on the margins like garbage. If she hadn't met the city lord, her fate would have been to be exploited by her father until she died of the disease.
But before she died, she met some very nice people.
The white cat jumped onto her shoulder, and a space barrier appeared around her, blocking the black fog.
"Cat, have you learned such a skill?" Xiaomei held it high up: "Amazing!"
The white cat meowed, stretched out its paw and pointed at the "Yes" button on the screen, meaning for Xiaomei to press it.
"I understand, Cat. If [Hewei] lives with us, there will be a treatment plan for my disease." Xiaomei said: "I have such a good relationship with the city lord. When I get the medical technology, he will definitely treat me, right?"
The white cat meowed again. It also hoped that she would survive.
Xiaomei smiled gently.
When she smiled, it was like a spring breeze. Although her facial features were not stunning, she had an elf-like purity that reminded people of a midnight epiphyllum.
She held it up and turned it around and around, like Cinderella about to end her life at the stroke of midnight, even though her prince was just a cat.
"...but I won't." She said loudly, "I won't take up medical resources! I won't make him worry. I'm an ordinary person, and my life is already wonderful. Cat! Come with me to Constantine University, okay? I've never been to school in my life, and my biggest dream is to go to university. Let's go together, okay?"
The white cat meowed and waved its little paws. It jumped out of her hands and jumped towards her.
Xiaomei hugged it tightly.
She rubbed its fur and strode out. Her steps became faster and faster, and lighter and lighter, as if she had shaken off all the pain. Even the wind couldn't catch up with her pace. The coughed-up blood was also left behind. She was like a nimble wind.
"I have never been to school since I was a child. I heard that Constantine University has a lot of rare books that can be read with just a library card."
"Each of them has a personal terminal. If they encounter a problem, they can ask their instructors instead of looking for books in the garbage dump like I did. If they meet someone they like, they can have a campus romance instead of having to trade their body for money like I did."
"Knowledge is the most valuable resource, Cat, if you become a human one day, don't forget what I said today."
Xiaomei used her limited imagination to sketch out a pure white ivory tower in her mind. The white cat kept meowing and wiping the blood from the corner of her lips with its paw pads.
Suddenly, she stopped.
The white cat tilted its head in confusion and meowed.
"Cat, look." Xiaomei lowered her head and looked at the mud at her feet.
She stretched out her purple hand, covered the soil with her five fingers, and brushed away the fine dust on the top, revealing a few small flowers like baby's breath.
She stared at the fragile flowers.
"Look," she said, "there are flowers."
…
【Total Energy Station】
【5km from Central Building】
"All the power stations have been destroyed?"
"Chairman, most of our power stations have been corroded by the black fog. The turn signals that Anjie and the others brought out are the last large light sources in the city-state."
"I see. Let's look for it again."
In the energy station that is like an iron barrel, the player Alan and a team of people gather here to look for the remaining usable energy.
After a brief exchange, they split into several groups and acted separately in the huge energy station.
"What on earth is Su Ming'an doing? He and Noel issued so many orders, but I can't understand any of them." Alande said as he searched, "He asked people to collect light sources and fire sources from all over the city-state, and he also asked for 36 planes to escort and protect him. What on earth does he want to do?"
The player next to him, Qiuqiu, said: "But Su Mingan's current negotiations are very reliable. If 100 million people can survive, all of us players will definitely survive."
"You're right, is this his purpose..." Alan nodded.
At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a prompt.
[(Asa Akto) is soliciting opinions from all citizens. Do you agree to the condition of "exchanging the Dawn system for the survival of 100 million people"? ]
[Options: Yes () / No ()]
"What?" Alande asked in surprise, "Is Su Mingan serious? He has to ask everyone about this?"
"It's in line with his style..." said Qiuqiu.
Suddenly, there was darkness all around, the lights on the ceiling went out in an instant, and the sounds of people panicking and running could be heard all around.
