In the long underground drainage pipeline of New Washington A, the wastewater accumulated by the residents throughout the day emitted a pungent smell as it flowed endlessly in the darkness. It gathered in several dozens of underground pits on the edge of the city and became clean water again for people to reuse after being precipitated and filtered.
At night, on the inner wall of a deep pipeline with a diameter of more than five meters that led directly to the T09 sewage treatment pit, a strange metal door that was the same color as the wall and covered in moss was suddenly pushed open. A tall figure appeared at the door and rudely untied his belt. While whistling, he began to urinate in an unbridled manner.
As the indecent 'hua hua …' sound of water resonated, an angry curse resonated from behind the tall and thin figure. "Jadefen, you stupid donkey! How many times have I told you that the door leading to the sewer is for emergency escape? Go to the bathroom if you want to pee!"
"John, calm down, buddy! Don't you think it's too cramped that we have to 'pee' and take a shower in the bathroom? We're human beings, not rats!" The tall and thin figure responded to his colleague's angry rebuke with a complaint indifferently. He only lifted his pants when he felt that it was pleasurable.
"The bathroom is small because we're a secret unit. Ensuring secrecy is the first principle. Oh, what the hell? Why would I partner with such an irresponsible bastard like you?"
"When I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, I didn't expect that one day I'd work in a hole with a 'nagging ghost' like a ditch rat." The tall and thin figure lazily closed the metal door and walked back to his position in two to three steps.
The basement he was in was not narrow at all. It was a square of hundreds of square meters, but unfortunately, more than 80% of the space was occupied by a huge LCD screen at the front with countless red and green light spots flashing on it.
Other than an office chair and a camp bed, the only space left was a spiral staircase that could only accommodate one person, and a bathroom that was separated by a thin board.
"Berkeley! Berkeley! Damn it! Cornell is no worse than Berkeley! Don't I also work in this whore rat hole? It's already good enough to be alive these days! What else do you want? Erm, what else do you want …" Enraged by his companion's sarcasm, the short and fat bald John jumped down from the bed and roared hysterically.
"Wow, wow, wow. Calm down, buddy. Calm down.
Take a deep breath, it'll be easy for you to lack of oxygen if you're too angry in such an environment … "In the face of his furious colleague, Steven shrugged indifferently and spread out his hands in a harmless manner. However, at this moment, a sharp beeping sound suddenly resonated in the room and caused his expression to change drastically.
Jadefen, who had also heard the alarm, could no longer be bothered to be angry. With a pale face, he screamed, "Oh my God! All the red lights are on! Let's hope it's a false alarm …" Then, he pounced on the device and kept pressing it.
A few seconds later, the LCD screen that was only slightly smaller than a movie screen suddenly lit up. Thousands of thin lines of various colors flickered for a while before a number appeared: 412121.
"4 … 4 … 412,121! Ha! Hahaha! Is the end of the world finally coming? I knew that it would be like this one day! I knew it …" When Jadefen saw the number clearly, his body stiffened as though he was struck by lightning. With a wry smile, he collapsed to the ground.
However, John, who was by his side, had a relaxed smile on his face as he shouted, "Are you an idiot, Jadefen? A divine power fluctuation with a frequency of more than 400,000 means that all the gods in the Shrimp World No. 1 have gathered together and crossed the world barrier to descend on the New Washington A. Do you think this is possible?
If such a tragedy really happened, the city would have been destroyed long ago and we would have died long ago. This is just a false alarm, a false alarm! "
The divine power fluctuation frequency was a unit of calculation for the strength of the gods created by the Atlanteans and the Earthlings after several trials in the battle with the mythical gods of the Shrimp World No. 1.
The divine power fluctuation frequency of one frequency was equivalent to the total faith power provided to the god by 10,000 medium devout believers. In other words, the number of believers supporting the 400,000 divine power fluctuation frequency was about four billion. This was already equivalent to the total population of a world.
If Noah's oasis city really had such a level of divine power fluctuation, the only possibility was that the Shrimp World No. 2 had staked everything on a single throw to launch an all-out attack on the federation.
"False alarm, false alarm …" After being reminded by his colleague, Jadefen, who had lost his wits, also felt that something was very strange. His fat body leaped up from the ground like a spring and opened his arms to swipe on the LCD screen. Not long after, the bustling street scene of the New Washington A and the barren wilderness of the sandstorm replaced the dazzling '412121'.
After a few more seconds, the alarming beeping suddenly stopped, and everything returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
At this time, John, who was by the side, seemed to have completely let go of the boulder in his heart. He glanced at his colleague who was still pouncing on the giant screen and pushed him away. "Hurry up and turn off the display! Do you want our bonus this month to go down the drain?"
"Turn off the display, John? W-Aren't we going to report this to the higher-ups?" Jadefen snapped back to reality and muttered in exhaustion. Due to his cowardly performance just now, it was obvious that he had lost his confidence.
"Report it to the higher-ups." After turning off the monitor, John laid down on the bed in an arrogant manner. "Did you just start this job? Noah is not Earth. The magnetic fluctuations of the planet are so frequent. If we report every false alarm, do we still need to rest?"
"B-But the data displayed this time is more than 400,000! There's never been such a … such a violent …"
"There wasn't before, but there is now! Alright, Jadefen, I've let you scream like a woman just now to the point of having a nervous breakdown, so you must take a good rest now.
If you want to report it to the higher-ups, just go ahead, but you'll have to write the entire incident report yourself. Remember to ask me to sign it after you're done, "John said and closed his eyes lazily.
Embarrassed and angry, Jadefen's face flushed red from his colleague's sarcasm, but he could not flare up at all. How could he still have the mood to report to the higher-ups? Gnashing his teeth, he looked at John's thin face that was sleeping soundly and spat out a mouthful of saliva fiercely. Then, he sat down on the chair angrily and began to sulk.
Just like this, the basement became as usual, but the hurricane in the distant desert became more and more violent.
In the empty and dark desert, the whistling wind was everywhere, carrying endless yellow sand that danced in the air.
On the sandy ground, a ghostly figure was galloping crazily, unafraid of the raging wind. It was moving forward aimlessly, gradually heading towards the eye of a tornado formed by the convergence of hundreds of hurricanes, which seemed to be able to pierce through heaven and earth.
A few minutes later, the raging Force of Nature of the storm subdued the unruly machine. The phantom that had charged into the eye of the tornado could no longer escape. After struggling for a while, it exhausted the last of its kinetic energy and instantly came to a halt, showing its strange appearance of a jeep that began to spin and float in the air.
In the eye of the tornado, an invisible force that spiraled upwards rubbed against the outer shell of the car, twisting it but unable to tear it apart. Seeing that the jeep was gradually being swept out of the tornado and was about to land safely, it suddenly exploded from the inside out.
Among the scattered steel fragments, a bald demon god that had a human upper body and a snake lower body that was about 180 centimeters tall revealed its figure. Its body was covered with crystal-clear scales that had patterns of mountains and rivers appearing all over its body. Its upper body was that of a human and its lower body was that of a snake.
After it appeared, the surrounding roaring wind did not seem to exist to the snake-tailed demon god. It could not get close to its body at all. Instead, the void several hundred meters around it seemed to be affected by it. It slowly twisted and changed its color, showing the shadow of a miniature planet.
When the shadow of the blue planet appeared clearly, like a meteorite attracted by a huge celestial body, the human-headed, snake-tailed demon god's originally expressionless face suddenly revealed a pained expression. Its body gradually spun around the planet's shadow.
Every time it spun around, its body seemed to grow a little bigger, constantly stretching and stretching its skin. In the end, its skin that had swelled to its limit began to limit the growth of its flesh and blood. The demon god began to struggle even more painfully.
Its sharp, curved nails pierced deeply into its own flesh. Roaring, it tore the restraints on its body. Starting from its chest, then its arms, head, and finally, it turned downwards and peeled off the skin on its lower abdomen and snake tail. When the entire scale skin was completely separated from its body, the demon god, who had swelled up in a short period of time, finally had a comfortable smile on its face.
At this time, thousands of meters away, a piece of leather that stretched out and fluttered in the wind suddenly extended infinitely. Like a magnet attracting steel, it took away the scale skin from the human-headed, snake-tailed demon god's hand and fused them together.
After another two to three minutes, amidst the roaring wind, the demon god suspended in the air suddenly opened its eyes. His pupils emitted a starry brilliance as he muttered, "I can't believe that my believers would actually conquer the entire Shrimp World No. 2 for me so quickly. When faith shrouds a complete 'world', the god will experience a leapfrog growth …"
As he was speaking, he looked around at the planet's shadow around him and unconsciously clenched his fists in excitement. Opening his mouth, he inhaled gently and swallowed the endless hurricane into his stomach.
Its body landed on the ground along with the yellow sand that was flying all over the sky. The variegated scales on the body of the snake-tailed demon that had a height of more than two meters when it stood upright, showing the patterns of mountains, earth, and ocean faded away. Its body shrunk and not long after, it turned into a black-haired, yellow-skinned human young man.
At this time, the dim moon had already climbed up to the middle of the night sky. The young man felt the infinite power brought to him by the planet's shadow for a long time. Even though he did not dare to activate it, he still felt satisfied.
It was not until dawn that he suddenly snapped back to reality. Reluctantly, he dispersed the shadow and looked down at his naked body. Helplessly, he picked up the scales that had fallen on the sand and rubbed them for a while. Overjoyed, he muttered to himself, "Even the Leather World has become several times bigger.
I'm afraid that the space inside is no different from a real 'world' now! " Wrapping the leather around his body, he quickly walked forward after identifying the direction. Not long after, his figure disappeared into the desert.
