139: Chapter 139 Lust Maniac

In Dazhou Nation, almost every district has a city used to imprison Transcendent criminals and special Monsters.

Prison City.

Giant-Multiplier Man was originally an A-Rank Hero of the G District Hero Association.

During an operation, he overexerted his Special Ability, causing him to fall into a rampaging, out-of-control, frenzied state.

After losing control, he rampaged through the city, and wherever he went, buildings within a two-kilometer radius were instantly razed to the ground, turning into ruins.

This caused tens of thousands of civilian casualties.

He even brutally murdered two B-Rank Heroes who were on the operation with him.

According to the Transcendent Management Law, any Transcendent who reaches A-Rank or above must be handed over to the Superpower Association for handling if they commit a crime or are involved in a major incident.

After the incident, the Superpower Association quickly intervened to investigate and make a ruling.

After a rigorous and detailed assessment, the incident was ultimately determined to be an act of negligence.

Giant-Multiplier Man was sentenced to be imprisoned in G District's Prison City for one hundred years.

Now, a full one hundred years have passed since he entered Prison City, but he still has two hundred and thirty years left on his sentence.

The twisted pleasure brought about by that bloody slaughter back then had planted a seed in his heart.

His Special Ability belongs to the Reinforcement Type.

Even though prisoners here are required to wear collars that suppress Special Abilities, as an A-Rank Reinforcement Type Transcendent, Giant-Multiplier Man's physical strength is among the best of the prisoners.

During an argument, Giant-Multiplier Man completely unleashed the violence within him, literally smashing a B-Rank criminal into a puddle of mangled flesh with his fists.

After that, he committed similar major incidents repeatedly; his crimes kept accumulating, and his sentence continued to lengthen accordingly.

The prison guards in Prison City ultimately had no choice but to take extreme measures: they inject him with drugs specifically designed to suppress physical strength at fixed times every day, and keep him locked in a room filled with hypnotic gas.

As time slowly passed, the craving for slaughter deep within his heart did not diminish in the slightest; instead, like weeds doused in fire, it grew and spread even more crazily.

Two hours ago, the G District Hero Association contacted him.

On the condition of waiving his additional sentence, they required him to play the role of a Monster during this Continental Carnival warm-up event and accumulate ten thousand points.

Giant-Multiplier Man readily agreed.

It wasn't that he craved freedom that much.

It was because the Hero Association told him that in C City, he could kill whoever he wanted, and no one would hold him accountable afterward.

That was truly wonderful!

As the shackles on the outside of the mechanical pod fell off, the inside of the mechanical pod began to release an antidote to restore his muscle activity.

The Hero Association did not implement very refined shock absorption for the mechanical pods used to transport prisoners.

Such a rapidly falling mechanical pod would inevitably generate a huge impact force, crushing the person inside into a pulp.

But before the mechanical pod completely hit the ground, Giant-Multiplier Man's physical activity would be fully restored, and the collar on his neck suppressing his Special Ability would also fall off.

Naturally, he had no fear of the impact force.

"I didn't expect it to be my turn to appear so soon."

"This event seems to... last for two days?"

Giant-Multiplier Man lay inside the mechanical pod, feeling the strength gradually reviving in his body, and revealed a sinister smile.

He pondered to himself, and began to calculate his slaughter plan in his mind:

"I can't kill too many at once, otherwise there won't be anyone left to kill tomorrow."

"Let me think, today... I'll just kill half."

He completely ignored the ten thousand points the Hero Association mentioned; he just wanted to completely vent the desire for slaughter that had been suppressed deep within his heart for many years.

Through his Special Ability [Multiplier], he could enlarge his strength and body size by dozens of times in proportion, becoming a gargantuan Monster.

If he completely let loose, destroying half of C City in one day would be more than enough.

The rapidly falling mechanical pod, like a meteor streaking across the sky, had already passed half the distance of its flight path and had just broken through the cloud layer.

Suddenly, not far below the mechanical pod, a crimson meteor streaked straight over.

And then they collided with a boom.

A whip kick carrying two layers of afterimages was seen piercing through the flames and slamming hard into the side of the mechanical pod.

With a loud "bang," the outer shell of the mechanical pod instantly buckled inward.

Giant-Multiplier Man, who was inside the mechanical pod, was just planning to further develop his plan when he felt a mountain-toppling force strike him.

The dented shell was like a heavy hammer, hitting his chest hard, instantly smashing his originally solid chest into a depression.

His body, which had not yet fully recovered its activity, suffered such a heavy blow that he vomited a mouthful of black blood mixed with shattered internal organs; Giant-Multiplier Man rolled his eyes and instantly lost consciousness.

And the entire mechanical pod, like a kicked soccer ball, completely deviated from its original flight path under the effect of the huge impact force and flew off into the distance.

In the process of constantly tumbling and falling, the outside of the mechanical pod rubbed violently against the air, igniting raging sparks.

It didn't fly far before a loud "boom" was heard, and the mechanical pod exploded in mid-air.

"I sensed a Killing Intent, so I acted instinctively... I didn't even get a chance to see what it was."

Chen Moxuan hovered in mid-air, gazing leisurely at the fireworks blooming like gorgeous flowers below, murmuring to himself.

This time, he was also speeding toward the direction of the air-raid shelter.

It was a coincidence; he had been flying in a straight line the whole way, and just happened to collide head-on with the mechanical pod that was shooting down diagonally from above.

As for why he was heading to the air-raid shelter, that has to be traced back to a few dozen minutes ago.

...

"Hey, wake up."

Song Xin had just finished watching the announcement broadcast by the Hero Association on TV, and immediately started shaking Chen Moxuan, waking him up from his meditative state.

"What's going on?"

Chen Moxuan slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was his own photo frozen on the TV screen.

"Let me think about how to explain this..."

Song Xin frowned, her face filled with a troubled expression.

Fortunately, not long after, the screen on the TV began to cycle through the rules regarding the Continental Carnival and the warm-up event.

Combined with Song Xin's long-winded and unfocused explanation, Chen Moxuan stared intently at the TV, taking in those rules one by one.

After watching, he had a clear understanding of the current situation in his mind.

"It seems that the app called 'project absolute extinction' wasn't automatically downloaded onto our phones."

Chen Moxuan unlocked the phone screen dedicated to the Madman Society, his fingers sliding quickly across the screen, carefully searching through it.

But come to think of it, if this app could be automatically downloaded, the Hero Association would naturally be able to accurately locate every member of the Madman Society through their phones.

After Chen Moxuan finished reading all the rules, he fell into deep thought.

According to these rules, the outside world would surely descend into chaos before long.

But the first place to descend into chaos might be Third Hope Middle School.

After he was identified as a Monster and his identity as a student of Third Hope Middle School was exposed, it wouldn't be long before a large group of people realized it and headed toward the vicinity of Third Hope Middle School to obtain points.

Of course, what these people needed was just to obtain the trace of the Monster, not to face the Monster directly.

And the students at the same school as him would definitely be treated as targets for investigation, even though they actually didn't know Chen Moxuan's whereabouts.

However, the Continental Carnival was originally an event for citizens to wantonly vent the evil desires in their hearts.

People who already knew that they had no hope for the future, as long as they had an excuse to convince themselves, could easily cast aside their usual morals and do many extreme things.

A moment later, Chen Moxuan raised his head, looked straight at Song Xin, and asked:

"Speaking of which, is that Zhang Qing you kept asking me to find important?"

Upon hearing this, Song Xin was slightly stunned for a moment, then said in surprise:

"Very important! I almost forgot! Another purpose of my coming to C City this time is to find him."

A trace of hesitation appeared on Song Xin's face, and finally she decided to reveal all the details of the matter:

"Before, your clearance wasn't high enough, and according to the rules, there was a lot I couldn't tell you."

"But now that you've killed two Transcendents, your contribution is enough to be promoted to the Madman level, and your identity clearance is sufficient."

"Actually, this Zhang Qing we are looking for is also a Lust Maniac of the Madman Society."

"It's just that because of an issue with his Authority... he is currently paying a price and is in a very special state."
