As everyone was engaged in a heated discussion, Fang Heng, who was also watching the live stream intently, suddenly felt a jolt. Looking closely, a message popped up before him: "[Based on a comprehensive assessment of your wealth, health, and activity level, your condition is no longer suitable for survival. You are hereby notified that you will be subjected to humanitarian annihilation in ten minutes.]"
"Wait a minute! I have a get-out-of-jail-free card!"
Fang Heng couldn't help but shout.
The problem is that the bullet comments are official notifications and there is no setting to receive replies, so Fang Heng's protest will not be received at all.
Indeed, everyone who is notified that they will be subjected to humanitarian extermination is bound to be unwilling. If everyone shouts out and the information is relayed back, law enforcement agencies will not have enough time to sort through this information.
Fang Heng was thrown into chaos.
Fortunately, he regained his composure after a few seconds.
He has ten minutes left.
So he quickly tagged Mo Longao in the live stream: [Longao, I just received a message saying I'm going to be humanitarianly killed, but I won a get-out-of-jail-free card before, what's going on?]
Although there were still many other comments, fortunately, since he was directly tagged, Mo Longao still saw them. He calmly explained: "[Since it's a get-out-of-jail-free card, it naturally exempts you from death after you're about to die. It will take effect when the countdown reaches its final stage.]"
【real?】
Fang Heng's thoughts were somewhat in disarray.
Although Mo Longao's words were logically sound, he had thought he had been granted a get-out-of-jail-free card, meaning the word "death" would not befall him. Now, he was being told that it would only take effect at the very end of the countdown, which seemed incredibly far-fetched.
If he really dies in the end, who will he appeal to for justice?
Mo Longao seemed to sense Fang Heng's confusion and explained: "Anyway, everyone knows you'll be subjected to humanitarian annihilation in a few minutes, and you have a get-out-of-jail-free card. After a few minutes, just shout a few times, and everyone will know that my get-out-of-jail-free card really works."
After sending it, I felt it wasn't quite enough, so I added: "Would I really let your 'get-out-of-jail-free card' affect my path to wealth?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Heng suddenly understood.
How much is his life worth? If the get-out-of-jail-free card really works, if this time it really is going to kill 20 million people, including many over 200 years old and with an IQ of 150 or higher, and even natural persons, then how effective would this get-out-of-jail-free card be?
Everyone started to wait.
It seems I've never encountered anything like this before.
During this time, Mo Longao posted another message: "[I'm going to raise the price of the 'immunity from death' token now, ten million each]"
I thought everyone would be making a lot of comments, but instead, it was quiet, and everyone had different opinions.
If what Mo Longao said is true, many wealthy people would probably prepare a get-out-of-jail-free card for themselves. Who knows, what if they're unlucky? After all, even Kang Shuaifu died.
At this time, Li Lechen's live stream had more than eight million viewers.
Wei Lan also watched Li Lechen's live stream the whole time.
She believed it from the moment Mo Longao first mentioned a major shift in the targets of this humanitarian annihilation effort. Because she also knew that Kang Shuaifu was dead.
Not only Kang Shuaifu, but also himself and Mo Longao were people who almost got selected.
Wei Lan had strong connections within the Department of Health, so she knew almost everything about the entire process of handling the special water supply incident.
Kang Shuaifu was humanitarianally destroyed on charges of intentional poisoning.
But this is probably just an official statement, because Kang Shuaifu was chosen, so he was going to die no matter what.
What if you are chosen? You will naturally suffer the same fate.
Without anyone noticing, Wei Lan transferred 10 million Sunshine Coins to Mo Longao and left a message in his personal mailbox: Give me a get-out-of-jail-free card.
They thought they'd kept it quiet, but Mo Longao saw it and directly asked in Li Lechen's live stream: "Wei Lan, why did you transfer ten million to me?"
Wei Lan couldn't help but twitch her lips, momentarily at a loss for words. Wasn't it Mo Long'ao himself who said it? Ten million Sunshine Coins for a get-out-of-jail-free card? And besides, she'd even left a comment.
A few seconds later, Mo Longao posted another message: [Oh, is it a big rebate from Ai'er Hospital today? Then I won't be polite.]
"......"
Wei Lan was immediately speechless. What did she mean by "big rebate"? Was she trying to buy a get-out-of-jail-free card?
Helpless, I could only reply with a comment: "[Look at the message I left in your personal mailbox]".
[What message? I didn't see it] Mo Longao looked innocent.
Didn't you say it yourself? Ten million!
Wei Lan was getting increasingly frustrated. She had never dealt with Mo Long'ao before, knowing he had a strange temper, but she hadn't expected him to be this strange. Was he genuinely not seeing it, or was he pretending not to?
But how could she bring up buying a get-out-of-jail-free card here? She's a permanent resident of the safe zone, and she owns the only private hospital in the world.
Others may be afraid of death, so why should she be worried about dying?
But now that Kang Shuaifu is dead, she is genuinely worried.
The more Wei Lan avoided a direct response, the more Mo Long'ao pretended to know nothing, and he simply changed the subject again: [Hey you, are you still alive? I need you to prove that my get-out-of-jail-free card really works. If you're still alive, just say so.]
Fang Heng looked up and took a deep breath, then replied, "I'm still here, currently counting down to sixty seconds."
Oh, a countdown has started? Normally, the countdown should reach zero before the "get-out-of-jail-free card" kicks in.
How terrifying.
Let alone the countdown reaching zero, even before that, watching the time decrease second by second, knowing that it might be my last moment, even though I thought it should be alright, I still couldn't help but be afraid.
I have lived for two hundred years, and I was twice banished to the contaminated area, both times barely escaping with my life. But this feeling is completely different from watching time pass and knowing that I am about to die.
Although he no longer had the intelligent knowledge chip, Fang Heng's mind was still very sharp. While not photographic, his memory was far superior to that of the average person. He remembered reading a book about suicide, which mentioned that one of the fastest ways to die was lying on train tracks. However, the psychological pressure of lying on tracks was directly proportional to the speed of the death. When one feels the vibration of the tracks, knows that a train is approaching, and knows that one is about to be crushed, that innate human fear of death will stiffen the body, to the point that the heart stops beating just before suffocation.
You can't truly understand unless you've experienced it yourself.
Although Fang Heng's eyes were fixed on the live chat, he had the illusion that he couldn't feel his own heartbeat.
Mo Longao didn't care; of course he couldn't sense it. He checked the time and sent another message: [It's a countdown now!]
hehe......
Fang Heng looked at the numbers on the screen in front of him: 8, 7, 6, 5... and suddenly it all became clear.
[Activating a get-out-of-jail-free card]
Sure enough, the message popped up after the last second of the countdown.
Fang Heng breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, his vision blurred, and when he opened his eyes again, he was back in his safety pod.
