Chapter 222: 126: Defeating Enemies in a Dream
North District of Linxiang City.
In the unfinished Hengtai building of the past, many people harbored hopes.
Zhou Baiyu still remembered that in her last job, there were people who couldn't survive because they bought properties that were never completed.
Some of these unfinished buildings had become shelters for the homeless, while others remained abandoned to this day.
Choosing the unfinished buildings in the North District as the final "battlefield" was also a way to minimize losses as much as possible.
Guang Tongchen, who observed everything from a distance using a high-powered telescope, maintained an extreme distance from Zhou Baiyu, barely enabling the "team buff" to take effect.
The two had acquired a bond effect because they had completed the friendship-ending mode of recruitment.
Moreover, since Guang Tongchen was very good at observing and his sniper memories made him sensitive to changes in the surroundings, Guang Tongchen was Zhou Baiyu's best partner.
At first, Guang Tongchen was puzzled about what Zhou Baiyu was doing.
Because through the telescope, he saw that Zhou Baiyu was just sitting there.
No phone calls, no messages released. It just seemed like she was sitting and waiting just like a rabbit.
But before long, he saw a snack cart appear.
Soon after, a chubby middle-aged man arrived. The man was very tired, and eating familiar food seemed to evoke some past memories, enhancing emotions, and it seemed to dispel his sense of fatigue.
But soon, another person arrived.
Guang Tongchen became alert.
It was a lean Westerner, whose skin was probably paler than if he were dead.
Not long after the Westerner approached the middle-aged man, an excited expression appeared on the man's face.
"I'm so corrupt, I'm so corrupt! Why am I wasting my life? Why am I not earning money?"
The bloodshot in his eyes appeared instantly.
Although he couldn't hear what the other person was saying, the sudden bursting with energy from the man gave Guang Tongchen a sense of something eerie.
"Pollution is different from your corruption," said Constantin in Guang Tongchen's mind. "Corruption is more like your own body mutating, but pollution has this aspect too. However, most pollution influences those around you."
"Some effects can be seen on the surface, like those radishes that grew enormously not long ago. Other effects... are hard to see because they are spiritual pollution."
Remembering Constantin's words, Guang Tongchen sensed traces of pollution. The chubby middle-aged man was very likely spiritually polluted, leading to a change in some of his thoughts.
"Coincidence? Zhou Baiyu really attracted a species of polluter here, this is the first scene... It looks like we might encounter followers of the God of Plagiarism and Duplication."
Guang Tongchen focused.
What he didn't know was that this scene was just a minor one. A bigger event was about to unfold.
Prisoners in zebra-striped prison uniforms started arriving in the North District one after another.
A grand jailbreak one-day-tour, organized by the early warning system and prison staff, began.
Under the loving radiance of the "Holy Mother and White Lotus God", Erica moved all the prison staff.
In the strange tales of Linxiang City, this scene was destined to be recorded—
Erica led the prisoners from one end of the city to the other.
Riding in buses, they seemed like tourists from another place.
The early warning sang songs, the warden drove, and the prisoners ate hotpot, creating a lively scene.
Along the way, Erica saw a begging beggar, causing an overflow of love in the people around to give the beggar all their belongings.
"He's begging from you, oh poor him, you'll definitely treat him well, right?"
"We love this world, love is our greatest power, love him!"
Hence, seeing this scene, people around started crying and gave all their belongings to the beggar.
Cell phones, wallets, credit cards, bank cards, jewelry, wristwatches... A bizarre scene occurred, with dozens of people standing naked on the street.
And the beggar, piled up with various items, was crushed to death.
In the end, no one knew whether it was a pair of underwear or a bra that killed the beggar.
But people were moved, felt fulfilled, believing that the mountain-like pile of love was a great feat.
In summary, under the divine radiance of the "Holy Mother and White Lotus God", humans would completely abandon their need for self, becoming extremely eager for self-sacrifice.
Now, Erica, leading such a group, came to the unfinished building area of the North District.
They danced and sang, appearing like a group of crazies bathed in love.
For some reason, Guang Tongchen, seeing this scene, felt his sanity slipping in a way more exaggerated than seeing countless giant radishes.
Pollution intermingled with pollution.
People influenced by love suddenly developed a desire to work.
The thief who had been imprisoned for stealing now wanted to steal crazily.
The "God of Overwork and Liver Explosion" seemed to brutally define the money-making and labor-requiring ways of the polluted as work.
Thus, many prisoners developed the idea of "going back to the old ways."
But due to the polluting effect of the "Holy Mother and White Lotus God," they also believed that such harmful behavior was wrong.
Their minds started to become confused, pollution crossing over each other, causing many to show crazed expressions.
Guang Tongchen whispered:
"Zhou Baiyu... did you see the scene below? I saw two relatively normal people, one a white guy as pale as a corpse and another a deeply moved bitch, if I had a gun, I would definitely shoot them both."
