Chapter 89 Danger (Please Subscribe)
As a laborer,
Chen had worked his life away at various construction sites and mines in Hecheng.
His ability to live so long was all thanks to his beyond average keen responsiveness.
The moment his daughter's "title" started to change, he immediately looked at the driver to make sure he was fully focused on driving and hadn't noticed anything unusual, then quickly took off his own hat and put it on his daughter's head.
It covered her rapidly changing title.
"Huh?"
Chen started, touching the hat and looking back in confusion, "What's the matter?"
"Nothing's wrong with me." Chen squinted, "What's with you?"
"I just… can't catch my breath. Don't know why."
"You might have caught a chill. Don't take off the hat; it might keep you warm."
"Oh! Okay."
"Thud!"
Just then, a loud bang suddenly came from above the truck.
Chen Yu's head hung down from above the windshield, tapping on the window, "Open the window."
The driver hastily leaned over, opened the window, and let Chen Yu in, "Sir…"
"Hmm."
Sitting down in the passenger seat, Chen Yu nodded and then looked at the three people in the back seat, "I'm back."
"Hecheng…" Chen pursed his lips, "Is it gone?"
"It's gone."
Upon hearing this, the driver trembled with fright.
The other four, except for Ms. Chen who was snoring, remained silent.
…
Destroying a city.
Undoubtedly cruel.
But in fact, eighty percent of the people agreed with this method of "city destruction".
In this world, humans are considered an inferior race at a disadvantage. Since ancient times, they have been limited by the "Treaty of a Hundred Tribes," which specifies that the scale, population, and resource acquisition of humans must be kept within certain limits.
Otherwise, they would face "legal" aggression by superior races.
But over two thousand years have passed.
The number of humans had long since multiplied, yet they had never been invaded.
Thus, more and more individuals and groups believed that the "Treaty of a Hundred Tribes" was just a hoax concocted by the ancient transcendent class. There was another conspiracy behind "city destruction"!
From then on, the "Alliance Faction" and "Conspiracy Faction" became increasingly divided.
And the destruction of Hecheng.
It was like throwing a huge stone into a tranquil lake of over twenty years, creating "towering waves."
In a short period of time, the entire human society plunged into turmoil.
The "Conspiracy Faction" became active once again.
All sorts of anti-class, anti-authority "organizations" sprouted like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, burgeoning wildly.
The long dormant "Anti-Transcendent Class Faction" vanguard—the Human Rights Association, also reemerged in public view.
Contradictions resisted, chaos reigned.
Incidents of violence gradually increased.
Zero-cost shopping, looting, and vicious crimes… surprisingly became the "mainstream" daily life of the people.
And the "legendary" evil beings, just as the Great Emperor had predicted, began to appear more frequently.
In response, the previously esteemed Supernatural Alliance was rapidly brought down, stirring everything into utter chaos.
All was in disarray.
Only the capital still managed to maintain some of its former stability…n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Just like that.
Half a month passed.
In the blink of an eye.
One day after school, Chen Yu and Fat Neighbor showed up at the teacher's office together.
They announced their next plan.
"What?!"
The plump female teacher couldn't believe it as she shot up from her seat, "You want to graduate early?!"
"Yes." Fat Neighbor nodded seriously, "The annual graduation assessment is in half a month. If I don't participate now, I'll have to wait till next year."
"A student normally studies for about a year or two! What's the rush for?"
Fat Neighbor, "I want to find answers to some questions."
Chen Yu, "Me too."
"The graduation assessment isn't that simple." The female teacher frowned, "It's no different from the normal transcendental advancement exam. It's very risky, and it's easy to die if you're not skilled enough."
Fat Neighbor, "You've mentioned these concerns, and I've already looked into them in advance. I'm prepared."
Chen Yu, "Same here."
Female teacher, "..."
"Here's our application." Fat Neighbor stepped forward, handing over the papers.
"Rustle."
The female teacher took them without looking, crumpled them up, and threw them away, her expression icy, "No, I disagree."
"Whether you agree or not isn't important." Fat Neighbor's face remained expressionless, "I came here to inform you, not to discuss."
Chen Yu, "I also… yeah."
"…You're insane?" The plump female teacher sized him up, "You've been a bit off since you returned from Hecheng."
"Anyway, I hope you will accommodate me." Fat Neighbor bowed deeply, "My Defying Fate Skill is now fully cultivated to the first level. I should have no problem graduating normally."
"But you haven't finished many of your theory classes."
"Literature classes aren't important, I can catch up in a few days."
"No!" The female teacher objected, "You have been here too briefly. I definitely disagree."
"Teacher, I guessed you would say that. So…" Fat Neighbor's eyes flashed coldly, "Don't blame me for not giving you a choice."
"What are you going to do?" The female teacher was taken aback.
Chen Yu suddenly shouted, "Xiao Liang! Give it to him!"
"Hey!"
Fat Neighbor instantly did a somersault, landing heavily! The ceiling dust cascaded down.
Then, under the shocked gaze of the female teacher, he started stripping off his coat, ripped open his shirt, and began to undo his pants, taking them off…
"Stop! Stop, stop, stop!" The female teacher, alarmed, immediately activated her powers and rushed forward to grab Fat Neighbor's hands, "Have you truly gone mad?!"
