Chapter 194 "You seem to take death very lightly?
The announcement echoed in the ears of everyone within the jurisdiction of Zhenba City, this city which originally had a permanent population of just two million. After the arrival of the "Sea of Human Suffering," the city now had roughly three million people gathered in this half-ruined city.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
And the numbers were still increasing.
As the sound of the announcement rose, the eyes of many lit up, their pupils gradually reddening.
What is a blessing?
No one understood better than they did. Before the arrival of the "Sea of Human Suffering," they had all received the biggest surprise of their lives; if not for the "Sea of Human Suffering," they might have never reached this turning point in their entire lives.
The ELO mechanism, many people were familiar with it— a match-making competitive mechanism from a MOBA game.
Basically, when you are on a losing streak, it would forcefully match you with very strong teammates so you could win the game even by lying down.
But when you are on a winning streak, it would match you with very weak teammates, making you lose the game no matter how strong you were.
It was a mechanism loathed by countless people.
However, in real life, there was no such mechanism. Countless people waited their whole lives and never saw their own turning point.
As for the so-called opening of the gates of hell and the human world, most people didn't care. Even if hell truly opened, what difference would it make to live a life without money or power at the bottom, compared with living in hell?
When an opportunity that could change your destiny is placed in front of you,
would you give it up because the world might be destroyed as a result?
No.
Bullshit.
Let the world go to hell!
Even if the world is destroyed, we will all die together. But if the world doesn't get destroyed, from then on, I will be the king of this world!
This thought almost gradually spread among the more than one million survivors, and the countless people who were originally carrying out rescue operations on the streets suddenly stopped their actions in unison; their expressions became vigilant and greedy as they looked around at the people nearby and slowly dispersed.
They made sure to back up against the walls as much as possible and cleared space for themselves.
It didn't need to be much.
Just killing three people would be enough.
Enough for a good life in the next life.
However, even after ten minutes had passed since the broadcast, no one had made a move. Almost everyone in the entire city remained silent, creating an incredibly eerie and tense atmosphere.
No sooner had he finished speaking,
The man sitting opposite immediately countered, "It's definitely not possible to move the survivors. If all the survivors in the city were to be relocated, then the mission on the Hell Bus would be doomed to fail, and all those ticket collectors would die."
"The other Hell Buses might be alright, but Chen Miao's Hell Bus cannot have any mishaps, and..."
As he spoke, his voice gradually faded.
It became apparent that the man too had come to a realization.
The announcement of the second phase for the 'Sea of Human Suffering' had cropped up, and yet, not a single person here had said a word or made any move. That was irrational. And where there was something irrational, it meant there was something more rational at play.
Everyone already knew about Lord Miao's mission.
"Wishing everyone in the world could be as powerful as a dragon."
If Lord Miao had still been alive to express this vision, everyone would have given a thumbs up and expressed their admiration for his grand vision with sincere praise.
But Lord Miao was dead.
When they saw this mission, the only thing in their minds was a Chinese phrase equivalent to an expletive, without any other reaction.
This mission was nearly impossible to complete.
"But it's not as if there's no way out."
Just then—
In the meeting room, the deputy director of the Events Bureau of Jingjiu City, a woman clad in red, narrowed her eyes thoughtfully and spoke up, "What were the exact words on the task panel? To turn every person in the federation into a Supernatural being?"
"Clearly, this is an impossible task."
"But perhaps we can think about it from a different angle?"
"Since we can't turn every ordinary person into a Supernatural being, why not eliminate all the ordinary people? Exterminating all the ordinary people in a short period shouldn't be too difficult, right?"
As her words settled,
There was a sudden silence in the meeting room, and everyone turned to look at the distinctive red-clad woman, understanding for the first time what is meant by 'a woman's heart is the most venomous'.
And soon, there was pushback.
"Nonsense."
"After all ordinary people are eliminated, even if the world doesn't end, it would be akin to the apocalypse. The social order would instantly collapse, and all aspects of human civilization, including scientific research, medicine, culture, education, would suffer severe disruptions."
"This way, only a few people remaining alive will, after not many generations, lead to an exaggerated gap in civilization."
