281: Section 281

But in the internet age...

Those who understand, understand. Coupled with the existence of amateur astronomical telescopes and private organizations...

The governments of various countries could no longer keep it hidden.

Whether it was war or peace.

Subsequent contact with extraterrestrial visitors would be impossible without the involvement of the public!

Therefore,

Various relevant agencies contacted each other frantically.

They discussed countermeasures and shared information.

For the first time, the nations of Earth—who usually held their own opinions or even fought to the death on the battlefield—actually reached a consensus quickly, or at the very least, achieved information sharing!

And then...

The nations of the world were frightened by the outrageously detailed information shared by Donghuang!

Astral Express?

Angel Civilization?

Connecting the stars?

Mutually beneficial exchange?

Wait, Rabbit, you thick-browed, big-eyed fellow, what exactly have you been doing behind everyone's back?

Speaking of which...

Back when Holy Kaisha addressed the entire universe, Rabbit had dodged the question, vowing at the time that they were completely in the dark as well.

But now?

You're not pretending anymore?

Rabbit, you motherf—

Diplomatic maneuvering, evasion, and blame-shifting did not stop the governments from activating their respective emergency protocols.

At the same time,

On this utterly ordinary weekend morning, humanity finally recalled the ultimate fear from the stars!

While some prayed for peace, others clamored for the aliens to pick cotton!

Some took the opportunity to preach that the world was rotten and needed extraterrestrial intervention, while others used it to play up a doomsday crisis, quickly forming cults to rake in money.

Of course,

Even more direct were the frequent 'Zero-Dollar Shopping' incidents.

These bizarre scenes momentarily stunned Su Ming, who had just arrived on Earth, making him wonder if his teleportation had failed and he had ended up on Marvel's Earth instead.

Tsk!—

This is too damn chaotic.

Even on the streets of the Island Nation in the Eastern Hemisphere,

Biker gangs were out, either following the trend of 'Zero-Dollar Shopping' or throwing Molotov cocktails...

Some even forcibly broke into private residences, wantonly releasing the evil in their genes...

Sensing Su Ming's dissatisfaction, Zhixin, who was traveling with him, activated her Eye of Insight and her expression darkened instantly.

"King, do the Angels need to judge those evils?"

Waving his hand, Su Ming shook his head and said,

"There's no need. This is ultimately Earth's business. Intervening rashly could easily bring negative publicity to the Angels."

Of course,

More importantly,

The experience points those trash provided were too meager; it would be lucky if ten of them yielded a single point. It wasn't worth Su Ming exposing his tracks prematurely.

After all, Su Ming had only one goal for this trip—Morgana!

Zhixin gave an 'oh'. Though a bit reluctant, she still obediently leaned against Su Ming's side.

She didn't continue to bristle.

Su Ming smiled and patted Zhixin's head, comforting her,

"You're being too rigid, Zhixin. We can't act openly, but we can act in the shadows..."

"Ah!" Zhixin's eyes lit up, and she said joyfully, "Does the King mean the Accidental Formula?"

Su Ming nodded and instructed,

"When you act, remember to stretch the time for the final result to within three years. At the very least, we shouldn't make Earth's civilization too alert."

"You know, there's a Peak Beast Body living in seclusion on this planet!"

Fighting Victory Buddha?

I see!

Zhixin understood and immediately began to operate.

She edited various coincidences to cut off the spread of evil,

and tailored a specific karmic retribution for each criminal.

In less than a minute, Zhixin giggled and hugged Su Ming's arm, stating that justice had been executed. Within three years, a total of over seven hundred thousand criminals worldwide had been marked by the Accidental Formula.

Depending on the severity of their crimes, they would encounter various consequences over the next three years, such as tripping, electric shocks, fires, car accidents, drowning, falling objects, accidental falls from buildings, accidental ingestion of poison, or being hunted by wild animals!

Look!—

Having an exclusive supercomputer backing you is just that incredible!

The karmic retribution for over seven hundred thousand people was fully set in just one short minute.

Over three years, with the scale of human civilization, it would be no problem to digest that many accidents. Even if it was destined to arouse suspicion, it didn't matter.

As long as the development of Earth's civilization wasn't affected.

“...What are you two doing...”

Beside Zhixin, Qi Lin, who was intentionally lagging behind by a step, could no longer contain her curiosity.

Evil, judgment...

And Peak Beast Body, Accidental Formula...

She couldn't understand any of it!

But even so, relying on the intuition of a former top graduate of the police academy, Qi Lin instinctively felt that these two had definitely done something major without her knowledge.

Facing Qi Lin's probe, Zhixin smiled and swiped the air, summoning a light screen.

On it,

were over seven hundred thousand vicious cases occurring one after another.

Including but not limited to 'Zero-Dollar Shopping', robbery, massacres, public indecency, rape, arson, and so on!

Following that,

before Qi Lin could shout in anger,

Zhixin softly explained her response.

Through various coincidences, these seven hundred thousand plus thugs would lose the ability to continue doing bad things. The method was simple: a fall would do!

If they broke their bones, they couldn't continue their crimes, right?

However,

it wasn't over yet.

Under Qi Lin's terrified gaze, Zhixin spoke while projecting a simulated animation:

"...In the next three years, those marked by the Accidental Formula will be liquidated by the universe itself according to the crimes they committed!"

With a gulp, Qi Lin swallowed her saliva and asked tremblingly:

"Then... what will happen to them?"

Zhixin gave a sweet smile:

"More than seventy percent will suffer varying degrees of injury, and the other group is certainly going to die... Don't worry, it won't cause any negative impact on Earth's civilization!"

Chapter 325: Qi Lin's Angelization! Su Ming's Solo Lead

Qi Lin: "..."

Her scalp was tingling, everyone!

Wuwuwu!—

So scary!—

Never mind the seventy percent with injuries, but what about the others destined to be killed by accidents over the next three years?

That's over two hundred thousand people!

Such a massive number made Qi Lin tremble just thinking about it.

But...

The things those people on the light screen were doing, even in human society, would warrant twenty or thirty years in prison!

Then it's fine... Like hell it is!

When her dad and immediate superior talked to her, they never said the Angel Civilization was this brutal, okay!

What should she do?

Should she back out?

As soon as that thought appeared, Qi Lin threw it to the back of her mind.

For no other reason than the fear that if she stood up the Angels, she'd probably be burned to death by the Angel lady in front of her!

You've got to be kidding.

This was a being who could calmly decide a death sentence for over two hundred thousand people!

She didn't dare play tricks in front of such a being.

However...

Taking a deep breath, Qi Lin plucked up the courage to ask:

"Miss Zhixin, and this... er, King of Heavenly Principles, can you tell me exactly what the Angels saw in me?"

For nearly a week, Qi Lin had been tossing and turning every night.

The fundamental reason lay in this question.

She couldn't understand; she was just a small-time policewoman. At most, her looks and figure, which were easily a nine out of ten, were a bit outstanding.

The problem was,

what did her bit of beauty count for in front of the Angels?

Not to mention anything else, just the Angel Zhixin in front of her—standing 1.8 meters tall but with an extremely youthful face and a clean, pure aura that made one feel ashamed—could crush her in the realm of looks!

Zhixin was about to explain, but Su Ming raised his hand to interrupt her:

"Zhixin, let me answer this question."

He paused, looked at the slightly awkward Qi Lin, and said:

"Qi Lin, you might have a significant misunderstanding about the Angels!"

"Angels are a race that always possesses a spontaneous yearning for beautiful existence!"

"To put it in Earth's terms, every Angel is a 'face-con'!"

"So, at least on the level of looks, your existence is worthy of an Angel casting a glance your way!"
