"If that's the case, I'll have a lot of hatred."
Lin Xi's eyes were cold and clear. When Death Song used Requiem to destroy Luzhou City, he had the same expression. Usually, when he was quiet and indifferent, it was when he was the angriest and most dangerous.
Last time, he could have used Hagi Hyuk to escape, but he used Outburst and Hot Blood to reach the state of destruction. He fought fiercely with Karsus and finally destroyed the Shadow Floating Island.
No matter when, the civilians were always the most miserable. The scenes he saw with Ning in the sky — those crying, numb, and hopeless, sitting on the cold rain, all of them were like flames, torturing his heart.
Lin Xi was not a saint, but he was not a cold-blooded person either. He was kind, and even if he had great power, he was willing to follow the rules, and he hated chaos and evil.
Shen Cheng City. Strictly speaking, this city was not destroyed. What was destroyed was Shabak, which was brought by the legendary heart. A special city disappeared. Although it was done by the Eight Heroes, after all, it was caused by him. Seeing the current situation of the civilians, his heart was filled with deep anger.
"Eight Heroes!"
Lin Xi clenched his fists.
A powerful force made up of eight bosses, the emissary of Orochi in the King of Fighters world, and the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings who controlled the four natural sources of earth, fire, wind, and thunder — Gonitz, he was not sure if he could defeat them.
That was because Gonitz was not Blackbeard, who was weak.
The power of wind was not necessarily weaker than the power of vibration, and Gonitz had also mastered the Eight Young Girls and other powerful fighting esoterics.
However, no matter how strong the opponent was, he had to take revenge.
Everything that happened in Lu Zhou City back then, Lin Xi had previously inwardly vowed that there would be a day when he would return the favor — even if the Deathsinger was a terrifying undying lich who wielded two great divine artifacts and grasped super forbidden curses.
And today, he once again secretly swore in his heart that he would make the Collection of Eight Great Heroes pay for what they had done, even if behind the Collection of Eight Great Heroes stood an existence that surpassed Karsus, a True God from a fantasy world.
Lin Xi landed from the sky and attracted the attention of some people nearby. Most of the people around him were wearing legendary equipment and weapons. They seemed to be warriors, mages, and priests.
"It's you!"
A pot-bellied man in his 50s walked over with his belly out. He was wearing a Soul Battle Suit and had a magic sword on his waist: Exorcism.
"This is Minister Liu, the leader of Shen City's commander who has transitioned. He is also a Taoist," Huang Bo quickly introduced.
Lin Xi didn't have a good impression of leaders and officials. In addition, he was in a bad mood, so he ignored the fat, round-faced man. This attitude undoubtedly made the man even angrier.
"Because of you, the city was mysteriously destroyed. Do you know how many people died? Forget about the civilians, more than 30 evolved humans died, and nearly 100 job changers died! "The fat on Chief Liu's face jiggled," These are all precious talents! "
"Do you understand how much damage you've caused to the city?!"
The saliva in his mouth almost sprayed onto Lin Xi's face.
"The most unfortunate thing is that the core of the city hall was completely destroyed by the Eight Heroes Collection. A special city is gone just like that …" He seemed to be grieving. "In the whole of China, only nine special cities have appeared so far. Luzhou City is finished, and now our Shen City is finished too!"
"How could we suffer such misfortune?"
Chief Liu beat his chest. His words caused the job changers not far away to discuss softly. Job changers were a group of people who had vested interests after Shen City became Shabak City.
Civilians didn't have many rights in the apocalypse. To the higher-ups, as long as they maintained order and prevented riots, it was enough. They didn't need to care too much about the people of this social class. The leaders valued evolved humans, but they were also jealous and hostile towards them.
Evolvers could live a good life no matter where they were.
The leaders of Shen City treated the job changers as their own people. First, job changers needed to consume resources, and they definitely had to use them on their friends and family first. Second, the fate of the job changers was bound to the special city.
They would do their best to protect their own city, and it was impossible for them to move to other places. They were different from evolved humans.
Job Changers meant that they were people above others, and their status in the city was a notch higher than others. Now that the city had been destroyed — or to be more precise, it had reverted from a special city to an ordinary one. Although their identities as Warriors, Mages, and Daoists would not disappear, and they could still level up by killing monsters, they would not be able to take the next step and undergo a qualitative change.
The skills in the world of legends and legends led to the cultivation system!
Moreover, after the destruction of Shabak City, the original NPCs in the city disappeared. There were no more pharmacies and grocery stores. The job changers lacked potions, and they couldn't buy or change weapons and equipment … How could they rely on the little drops from monsters?
It could be said that the job changers had lost their future.
In fact, even if the city was successfully upgraded, how many job changers could break through their current profession and enter the cultivation system? But it was still a thought. Because of Lin Xi, the bosses came to him for revenge and destroyed Shen City. These people even wanted to kill him.
"What should we do in the future?"
"He should be responsible."
"Don't you think that guy is a jinx? There have only been nine special cities in China. The two destroyed cities, Plant City and Shabak City, are both related to him. I heard that he had been to Luzhou before, and Luzhou City was destroyed. Then, he came to our Shen City, and Shen City was also destroyed. "
"That makes sense … This guy, just because he has some strength, he went to provoke a boss. If he provoked a powerful boss, he could escape with his flying ability, but the city would be unlucky."
…
The voice of the job changers wasn't loud, but how good was the hearing of evolved humans? Everything was heard by him.
Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh. Indeed, whether it was before or after the apocalypse, those with vested interests were a group of despicable and uncouth existences. Just like the capitalists during the War of Resistance, even when the country was in danger, they still sold their country to make a fortune. The job changers had violated their interests, and Jian Zhi had become their mortal enemy.
Lin Xi didn't have any good feelings towards these people. He only pitied the civilians of Shen City.
How many people were there in this gathering place? Tens of millions of people. What should they do if Shen City was destroyed? Of course, the current Shen City wasn't destroyed, but it had suffered some damage. It had also changed from a special city to an ordinary one, but this was very dangerous.
Because of the location of Shen City, it was very easy to be attacked by the coastal forces from Japan. Moreover, there was the Rising Sun Empire in the East Sea. Who knew when the fleet and the empire's warriors would attack.
Seeing that Lin Xi was silent, Huang Bo, who was at the side, was afraid that he would be angry. He quickly said, "Don't mind him. Department Head Liu has spent a lot of effort for this city. Now that the city is gone, he will definitely be sad. Also, everyone is actually concerned about this city."
Department Head Liu obviously took his expression as a sign of weakness.
"This place is no longer safe. In the future, how are we going to defend against attacks from the sea? We can't even sleep well. "Department Head Liu's face was red with anger." You are the sinner of this city! You have to do something to make up for it! "
"You are mistaken about two things."
Lin Xi looked at Department Head Liu calmly. "First, I am not from Shen City. What happened to this city has nothing to do with me. Second … Have you forgotten that this is the end of the world? In my eyes, people like you are just ants that I can pinch to death easily. "
"Who gave you the courage and guts to say these words in front of me?"
Suddenly, the surroundings were silent.
The Beast Squad, Ninth Uncle, Li Qi, and the others all walked over. Hearing Mayor Liu's scolding, Many And Many were furious. "If it weren't for Lin Xi last time, Shen City would have been destroyed! Blackbeard's earthquake was enough to completely turn the entire city into ruins! "
"What will happen if the vicious pirates break into the city? Can you all survive? Now, you only suffered some losses. Consider yourself lucky. "
"With your strength, you can't even protect your own city. How dare you blame others … Department Head Liu, look at your fat face. You must have a good life, right? People like you stay in the city and don't take risks. How can you become a Taoist? How many resources will you waste? "
Many And Many were full of sarcasm. Normally, Department Head Liu would definitely be furious. However, he was scared by Lin Xi's words just now. His face turned pale and he didn't dare to say anything.
Because of the loss of benefits, he was blinded by anger and lost his mind. Only now did he realize that Lin Xi was an evolved person and was evaluated as a B + level. His real strength should be a top level A-. Such a person could be easily crushed to death with a single finger.
Before the apocalypse, he was in a high position. After the apocalypse, he entered the core group of the city and had the potential to become a Taoist. The few people who followed him usually helped him kill monsters and level up. All he heard was compliments and he lost his vigilance.
Lin Xi looked at the people who were looking defeated. "You are indeed lucky that the city was destroyed by the Eight Heroes. The eight bosses were very proud and didn't kill too many people … Let me tell you something. The force that descended on the Penghu Archipelago is the Rising Sun Empire which is on red alert."
"If that force were to attack, the fate of Shen City wouldn't be changing from a special city back to an ordinary one. It might be completely destroyed … In a modern war, the number of people who would die would be much more than this time."
"A special city actually doesn't have a super strong person. You guys don't have nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction, right? Nuclear weapons are controlled by the capital. I think if you guys agree to hand over some benefits in exchange for a nuclear warhead, you should be able to do it. "
"It's a pity that you guys don't have anything. You don't even have a Grade B +."
Lin Xi continued in a calm tone, "Shen City is located along the coast. It's very easy to be attacked by the Japanese bosses. I don't believe that you guys didn't evaluate this before you built the city. Why would you use the heart of the city here? "
"Maybe it's for stability and harmony. But … let me tell you something. This is the apocalypse. It's your fault for building a special city but not being able to attract and nurture super strong people. You can't blame anyone."
"Without the Eight Heroes, there might be the Rising Sun Empire, the Akatsuki, or other forces."
"After the apocalypse, being weak is a sin."
"Well said!"
A coarse voice suddenly resounded through the world. "Being weak is a sin, but there are some people who just can't understand such a simple thing. They follow senseless rules and morals, allowing their potential to be shackled. They don't realize that no matter where they go, only the strong can have everything."
"Sigh …"
The voice sighed deeply. "Whether it's that world or this one, there are people everywhere. It's really infuriating."
Following the voice, something flew down.
It was as fast as a gust of wind and lightning!
Lin Xi used Ning's strengthened sight to capture the scattered thought waves, clearly seeing that the object that fell from the sky was a blade.
It was green, like jade, or emerald. When it traveled through space, it brought out a beautiful stream of light.
The knife fell from the sky and landed directly on Department Head Liu's head. Then, as if it was cutting tofu, it sliced him in half from the middle of his head, through the bridge of his nose, and along his spine. When the two halves of his body fell to the ground, the mouths on the two halves of his body were still speaking.
"Save, save me …"
Huang Bo wanted to save him, but he couldn't react in time. The job seekers only saw a flash of green light, and Department Head Liu was sliced into two. By the time they understood what had happened, they let out cries of terror and ran for their lives.
The Beast team, Li Qi, Many And Many, and the others couldn't save him in time. Even if they could, they wouldn't do it.
Lin Xi completely saw what was shooting down from the sky, and he could completely intercept it, but he didn't do this. Even though he was kind-hearted, he wasn't the Holy Mother, there was no way he would take action to save a fat official after being criticized.
Maybe in the anime, people like Naruto Uzumaki and Luffy could do it, but he couldn't.
He raised his head and looked at the place where Jasper had shot down from the sky. The blue sky was originally clear, but now the light suddenly dimmed. A large number of dark clouds appeared. The clouds stirred into a vortex, and a thick green pillar of light shot down from the sky like a main cannon of a battleship.
Amidst the violent shockwaves, the ground shook, and the cement road caved in and cracked. The cracks spread rapidly in all directions, and the light formed a huge energy ball. The whole scene was even more shocking than the Terminator's space-time travel.
Lin Xi saw that within the green sphere of light was a tall and sturdy figure.
"Who is it?"
"Good question."
The figure in the green light sighed with a deep and heavy voice, "I was once called the Soul Chasing Jade, the Teacher of Suffering, the Beast of Vengeance, the Widow-Maker … Now, my identity is that of a monster that has descended from another world … I hate this word … Kid, I've finally caught up to you."
