Chapter 1508: Future Troubles! (part 2)
Joseph and the six bosses, including their subordinates, didn’t even have time to react before being torn apart.
Including those subordinates who had obtained ‘Extraordinary Power.’
These subordinates with ‘Extraordinary Power’ were originally hidden among the crowd, ready to launch a surprise attack, as they had always done, but at this moment, they didn’t even get a chance to strike.
Or rather, even if they had struck, it wouldn’t have made any difference.
Because this is no longer a gap that can be filled by quantity.
But a gap in quality.
[Gale II] raged through.
Residents of the ‘Nightless City’ gathered outside District 29 looked at Jason’s punch in terror.
Then, they sped up and squeezed through the metal gate.
To the residents of the ‘Nightless City,’ at this moment, this metal gate represented not only the treasure of ‘Jing,’ but also a way to get far away from the terrifying monster Jason.How can a person be this powerful?
He must be a monster!
All the residents of the ‘Nightless City’ thought so.
Even the ‘Old Man’ and Lauren Delder were startled.
Especially the latter.
The ‘Old Man’s knowledge of ‘Extraordinary Power’ and ‘Mystical Side’ is limited.
Lauren Delder is different, having unexpectedly obtained ‘Extraordinary Power,’ Lauren Delder had learned quite a lot of ‘mystical knowledge’ from the portal master named ‘Kulin.’
Although the key parts were fake, the basics were all there.
This foundation allowed Lauren Delder to understand what Jason’s ‘resurrection’ really meant.
And made Lauren Delder clearly understand what Jason’s ordinary punch, causing a gale to rage, signified.
"Completely not on the same level.”
Lauren Delder sighed with emotion.
He couldn’t help but compare.
Even if he tried his best, he couldn’t produce a punch like Jason’s.
Perhaps sacrificing his life would do it.
But sacrificing one’s life, that’s just one strike.
But Jason?
It’s just a punch.
Moreover, judging by the ease, throwing another punch wouldn’t be a problem.
Feeling defeated, Lauren Delder handed the backpack to Jason—inside were Jason’s clothes and mask.
"Shall we go look for Neopolitan?”
Lauren Delder asked.
Evidently, Lauren Delder and the ‘Old Man’ had the same thought.
However, Lauren Delder didn’t act immediately but instead looked at Jason.
"Do you think these guys who rushed into District 30 can survive?”
Jason responded with a question instead, asking the ‘Old Man’ and Lauren Delder.
The ‘Old Man’ didn’t answer but instead looked at Lauren Delder.
Compared to his one-day tour in District 30, Lauren Delder was more qualified to answer this question.
"Most likely not.”
"A few with good luck might survive, as long as they don’t leave the safe zone.”
"Of course, the premise is that ‘Jing’ lied, and there’s no treasure.”
"If there is… ”
"They’ll kill each other without any monsters stepping in.”
Lauren Delder stated very objectively.
After saying it, Lauren Delder couldn’t help but ask a question.
"Did ‘Jing’ bury treasure in District 30?”
Without any greed, deeply aware of what District 30 is, Lauren Delder was simply curious.
"Previously no, but as soon as ‘Jing’ said that, it became so.”
Jason replied.
Then, after pausing for a moment, continued to ask.
"Can death stop greed?”
"Stop greed?”
"Stop kidding.”
"You know the residents of ‘Nightless City,’ these bastards are usually terrified of death, but when facing profits, every single one becomes reckless!” 𝙍άΝòβЕs
"Death?”
"It’s merely an obstacle to enormous profits.”
"As long as we cross over, it’s vast wealth.”
Lauren Delder laughed.
Coming from the lower part of the ‘Nightless City,’ he understood all too well the mindset of the bottom residents of ‘Nightless City.’
After all, he used to think the same way.
Moreover, he thought about it even more.
"This is just the beginning.”
"When more people learn about what’s happening here, they’ll certainly join in.”
"Residents of the ‘Nightless City’ will continue to stream into District 30.”
‘Old man’ nodded, agreeing with Lauren Delder’s statement.
Jason frowned deeply.
Because it was the truth.
In his speculation, things would unfold in this direction.
Moreover, it was unstoppable.
Anyone who tried to stop it would become the enemy of the residents of the Nightless City.
Unless all those residents were killed.
Otherwise, it was simply impossible to stop.
And how many residents are there in the Nightless City?
Three million?
Five million?
Or ten million?
Without any statistics, it is impossible to give an exact number, but Jason knew the number would be significant, enough to form something called the ‘era.’
Once this thing is born, it will extend into another entity.
The ‘torrent of the era’!
Anyone standing in front of this would be crushed.
Jason thought about it.
The ‘old man’ thought about it too.
Lauren Delder also thought about it.
Immediately, a feeling of powerlessness enveloped the old man and Lauren Delder.
The two exchanged a glance and shared a bitter smile.
Until now, they had no idea what Jing’s plan was, but regardless of what it was, Jing had succeeded.
They had failed.
The taste of failure was truly unpleasant.
Experiencing the bitter fruit of failure was far from a pleasant experience.
It was something extremely reluctant to try.
But not something one could stop through personal will.
"What is Jing’s goal?”
Suddenly, Jason spoke up.
‘Old man’ and Lauren Delder were taken aback.
"His goal…”
"To have more people enter the 30 District?”
Lauren Delder answered instinctively.
"Why does he want more people to enter the 30 District then?”
Jason continued asking.
"Because he is colluding with those monsters outside and naturally wants those monsters to kill more Nightless City residents?”
Lauren Delder continued answering without understanding completely.
The ‘old man’ on the side suddenly had a gleam in his eyes.
He seemed to know what Jason wanted to convey.
"Then why doesn’t he directly let the monsters come in, but instead lets the Nightless City residents go out?”
Jason asked again.
"Because those monsters can’t get in… hmm?”
"Jason, are you saying more Nightless City residents going out will allow monsters to come in?”
Lauren Delder began to understand as he spoke.
"The 30 District should have a ‘barrier’ that we can’t see, and it’s because of this barrier that monsters are prevented from approaching. Otherwise, you wouldn’t believe that this piece of city wall in the 29 District could stop those monsters, would you?”
"However, over time, the ‘barrier’s strength is weakening.”
"So, the monsters started entering the 30 District, getting close to the 29 District.”
"Why do those road signs exist?”
"Aren’t they just a standard?”
Jing and the monsters have an alliance, and he hopes monsters will enter the Nightless City. Therefore, he can only destroy the barrier, and the ceremony for destroying the barrier could be ‘war,’ or a ‘blood sacrifice,’ or something similar. In any case, he needs more people to appear in the 30 District to help him complete this crucial step and achieve the purpose of breaking the barrier.
Jason paused again as he spoke.
But this pause was different from before.
Previously, it was contemplation.
This time, it was a slight smile.
He looked at the old man and Lauren Delder, speaking in a voice only the three of them could hear—
"But this is routine.”
"It’s what everyone can think of.”
"It’s what Jing wants us to see.”
"What he truly wants to do is not this.”
"Because…”
"Too slow!”
"Too many obstacles.”
Saying this, Jason raised a finger and pointed upwards.
