Chapter 136 Opposing the Opening of the Lower City! Resisting the Rule of Villains
A bright moon hangs in the night sky, surrounded by twinkling stars, as dazzling as a galaxy.
On the past, Li Can hadn't seen so many stars in the city sky for a long time.
Although the lower city also remains in darkness for a long time, it is simply a black curtain with nothing above it, like a fake background ceiling.
"It's hard to say, it might just be a fake sky."
This was all the work of the old city lord. Li Can was indeed inclined to believe that he had created some kind of barrier in the lower city to simulate day and night, and to keep the amnesiac perfect person in captivity.
"That's true, this way there's no way to escape. There are high walls all around, and even the sky is an illusion..."
With the pleasant evening breeze, he relaxed completely, sprawled on the recliner.
Now that Li Can is trapped in the slow-flowing mirror world of the third act, having finished all the preparations he can, he feels a sense of "finally being able to catch his breath and rest for a while".
His eyes were half-closed, and his consciousness gradually drifted into a dream, with the chirping of crickets in the grass in front of Xiao Guai's house in his ears.
The natural scent of earth being turned over enveloped you in the air; everything was subtle and reassuring.
Suddenly, a muffled groan came from the room behind Li Can, followed by Shen Yuan's shocked scream after seeing other people's faces in the mirror.
"Ahhhhh!"
Li Can was instantly jolted awake, all sleepiness vanished, and he jumped up from the chair in a flash.
He nimbly jumped to the ground, loosened his joints, and got ready. "Sigh, let's officially begin the process and go through it until this scene ends."
He pushed open the wooden door and walked in from outside the house, looking at the one adult and three children who had been completely awakened by the noise.
They all looked back at him with identical faces.
Some of the three children appeared tense, agitated, and unable to accept reality.
Some hadn't even figured out what was going on yet; they'd just opened their eyes and found everything unfamiliar, still searching with wary eyes.
After waking up this time, Xiao Guai seemed much calmer and more composed compared to the easily startled Shen Yuan.
His face displayed a fascinating shift between a look of utter despair and intense excitement.
"You're awake..." Li Can walked into the room, holding onto the door frame with one hand. The hem of her ill-fitting clothes dragged on the ground, making her look rather disheveled.
"Surprised? Unexpected? The four of us have been born!"
"So, you are my...children?" Little Monster touched his belly, looking a little aggrieved.
He looked up with some confusion and glanced around at the four small faces that looked exactly like his.
If Li Can and the others look so much like him, and they're not family, then that's simply unbelievable.
No matter how Xiao Guai looked at it or thought about it, he felt that his genes had mutated, and he knew about his yin-yang bloodline problem.
Therefore, this line of thinking will start to diverge.
Finally, after a few seconds of silence, as if he had made up his mind, he gritted his teeth and spoke:
"Don't worry, from now on, as long as I have meat to eat, you will definitely not be short of soup. Oh, no, you will also have meat to eat."
"I'm a first-time dad too, so I don't really know much. You were already this big when you were born." He gestured with his hands to indicate their size.
"Do you need to drink some formula, cow's milk, or goat's milk...?"
Li Can: "..."
Li Lan: "..."
Shen Yuan: "Hey, that would be great if we could get some, is there really any?"
Yang Mo: "There's absolutely no need for that."
……
Meanwhile, in the upper city, just as Li Can had guessed, things were indeed in complete chaos.
At this moment, about forty minutes had passed since the four people suddenly disappeared.
After Li Can and his companions entered the [Mirror of Past Lives], the time consumed in the first and second acts, as well as the early part of the third act, flowed at the same rate as in reality.
Only after Li Can disemboweled the monster did the time flow return to 1:24, and everything slowed down.
Feng Tian, dressed in white mecha, stood at the rear, while in front of her were the residents of the upper city who had thronged to the entrance of the city lord's mansion in a rebellion and protest. They were being held back by their own people in the organization who were armed with weapons.
When they first stormed into the city lord's mansion, their methods were so swift and unexpected that the crowd hadn't even had time to react before it was all over.
"Give us back our old city lord's life! You heartless, ungrateful wretches!"
"You think you can control the upper city? Dream on! Even if you kill the old city lord, we will never recognize your identity."
"Please, please hand over the old city lord's body. At least give us old folks some face and let us give him a proper burial..."
"Die! You scum! You killed such a good man as the old city lord! Are you crazy for power and profit? Die! All of you die!"
The crowd was in complete chaos, with all sorts of thoughts and ideas swirling around.
Those who make outrageous statements are the most numerous.
Secondly, there were also a few elderly people mixed in who were trying to reason with people and appeal to their emotions.
What's even worse is that a group of people were throwing and splashing rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, swill, and other foul-smelling, unidentified items at the entrance.
The scene reeked of a stench that was a jumbled mess, giving people headaches.
"Who is it? Couldn't you have aimed a little more accurately? You just hit me!"
"Traitors! They even want to lift the restrictions on the lower city and release those people to be treated the same as us. This is utterly absurd! How can we agree to this?!"
"Disagree!!!" the crowd shouted in unison.
Some people with ill intentions and a tendency to stir up trouble have already begun to emerge here.
"What a scumbag! Things are really going to change! Oh God, waaaaaah..."
"Oppose the opening of the lower town! Resist the rise of wicked people to power! We must stand up and speak out!"
"Oppose the opening of the lower town! Resist the rise of wicked people to power!" x57
"Oppose the opening of the lower town! Resist the rise of wicked people to power!" x129
They started hurling insults at each other, one after another.
It eventually evolved into a rhythmic protest, with the leaders at the front seemingly having some kind of backing, showing no fear of death and charging forward relentlessly.
Seeing that their plan to simply guard the city lord's mansion was completely out of the question, it was clear that they were no longer able to resist.
Feng Tian scratched her ear with one hand; the noise was just too loud.
Her face was so dark it seemed to drip ink; she tilted her neck and moved it around, then seemed to have finally made up her mind.
She extended one hand, making a chop gesture, and parted her lips slightly: "Kill them all."
The young mech pilots who received orders to stand in front of the city's residents were somewhat surprised.
They assumed that Feng Tian, who was usually kind-hearted and gentle, wouldn't give any overly violent instructions.
Generally speaking, decisions that tend to be "bad" come from Yang Mo's mouth.
However, in the tens of minutes after Yang Mo disappeared, the remaining troops who stayed behind to clean up the mess felt as if centuries had passed.
There has never been anyone who could step forward and take charge... but now there is!
They've come this far, and there's no turning back.
We must withstand the pressure and rise to the challenge.
"kill!!!"
