I have a city in another world

Chapter 6936 Disaster and Hope
The area extending ten kilometers in all directions from the temple is currently considered a safe zone.

In this area, the virus cannot invade and survive; it will be completely eliminated by the power of the divine kingdom.

At the edge of the safe zone, a large number of killer plants have appeared to block mutated monsters that try to get close.

A variety of deadly plants have formed a plant wall nearly two kilometers wide, and it continues to expand.

Almost every minute, infected citizens would approach and be eliminated by various kinds of killer plants.

The more prey it devours, the more luxuriant the killer plant grows, and it continues to evolve and upgrade.

There is a type of killer vine that evolves into advanced forms in a very short period of time.

Stretching hundreds of meters in length, the vines are exceptionally tough and resistant to fire and corrosion, easily tearing prey to pieces.

The mutated monsters gathered and approached, repeatedly using sheer numbers to try and break through the blockade of the killer plants.

At the critical moment, another miracle occurred, causing countless strange mushrooms to appear on the ground.

The mushroom will explode instantly if the monster touches it.

The dust inside mushrooms will burn rapidly upon contact with air, creating terrifyingly high temperatures of several thousand degrees.

Monsters that touched the mushrooms were instantly burned to a crisp, dying in droves.

The bizarre exploding mushroom is an absolute defensive weapon, best suited for stopping large-scale enemies.

The power wielded by the gods was truly inconceivable, successfully preventing the mutated monster from getting closer.

Performing miracles comes at a price; otherwise, the scope would not be limited, but would extend to the entire city.

Citizens continued to surge along the road leading to the temple, like a surging tide.

Yves, along with the temple staff, including Mina and others who had just joined, were all extremely busy.

They rescued the people and escorted them to safety, repeating similar actions over and over again.

The constant fighting was simply too much for the flesh and blood to bear.

After a period of rescue efforts, the temple staff were forced to halt their operations due to severe exhaustion.

Even if you take the medicine, it won't have much effect.

The only thing they can do is send bird-man servants to patrol the skies and randomly rescue dangerous groups.

Most of the remaining citizens could only cooperate with each other to survive, or stay in their homes and wait for things to turn around.

The temple also promised to rescue the trapped citizens.

At the same time, the people of the city were told to continually pray and praise the Goddess of Starshine and to become her faithful followers.

The divine will sense the faithful believers and will prioritize their rescue.

The temple used this method to select believers from among the disaster victims; those who wanted to survive had to make a choice.

Don't talk about taking advantage of someone's misfortune. There are no freebies in this world, and the temple would never be so blind as to expend enormous effort to save an enemy.

The temple members understood this, and no one objected. In a life-or-death situation, they would definitely prioritize helping their own people.

On a street outside the safe zone.

As Tang Zhen walked down the street, he occasionally saw mutated monsters roaming around the city like wild beasts.

The extraordinary virus evolves at an extremely rapid pace; in a short period of time, infected individuals have undergone several mutations.

Some of the infected are becoming increasingly like wild beasts, with their strength and speed increasing accordingly.

Given this trend, the city's inhabitants, lacking powerful weapons, are no match for the monsters.

Such a terrifying virus is indeed quite rare, which has piqued Tang Zhen's interest.

Unfortunately, the rule-breaking artifact was sealed, preventing him from conducting a detailed analysis; otherwise, he would have been able to find a solution very quickly.

Now all we can do is wait and watch how things develop.

Tang Zhen knew very well that with the help of divine means, this extraordinary virus should be able to be suppressed.

It's understandable if the other party is unwilling to do it.

Such a battle between the gods could not end quickly; the suffering of the city's inhabitants had only just begun. The vast majority of monsters, too, were unable to detect Tang Zhen, remaining completely unaware even when he stood right in front of them.

However, a small number of monsters were able to sense Tang Zhen's presence, but were unable to pinpoint his exact location.

Whenever they approached Tang Zhen, they would roar, trying to find the source of the threat that terrified them.

To this day, Tang Zhen still hasn't figured out what rules govern the mutations within him.

Firstly, there was a lack of experimental subjects, and secondly, Tang Zhen didn't want to figure it out, so as not to waste his energy and time.

Just let things take their natural course.

Once the seal of the rules is broken and the artifact capable of breaking the rules is used, the whole truth will be revealed before our eyes.

As I passed by a building, I heard cries and screams.

In today's cities, cries and screams can be heard everywhere, rising and falling incessantly.

Tang Zhen chooses to ignore these kinds of voices; his abilities are limited, and he cannot help everyone.

"Uncle, help me, I'm hungry!"

The sound coming from above made Tang Zhen turn his head to look.

It was a little girl, leaning against the edge of a window on the tenth floor, her hair disheveled, probably not styled for a long time, and her face covered in dirt.

She leaned against the window, pleading in a childish yet hoarse voice, hoping Tang Zhen could help her.

Tang Zhen looked at the other person and a smile appeared on his face.

"Stay home and don't move around."

As Tang Zhen spoke, he arrived at the sealed-off entrance to the building and found more than a dozen mutated monsters wandering around there.

With the gate blocked by monsters, the residents inside were unable to leave and could only remain in their homes in despair, hoping for help.

With a casual wave of his hand, Tang Zhen sent more than a dozen monsters sprawling to the ground, as if all their bones had been removed.

The citizens who were standing behind the gate, looking nervous, were all slightly taken aback when they saw this.

The monster that terrified them collapsed to the ground instantly, without them knowing what had happened.

Unbeknownst to them, at that moment, someone walked in and passed right in front of them.

Tang Zhen slowly walked up the stairs, passing many houses along the way.

Some rooms were completely empty, with all the doors open, revealing a chaotic scene inside.

Inhabited houses, doors were reinforced in every possible way to keep out monsters and evil people.

Such a crude defense method should not last long when facing a monster attack.

The problem is that, apart from this, citizens have no other way to save themselves and can only grit their teeth and endure the hardship.

Upon arriving at the girl's house, Tang Zhen smelled a putrid odor.

With a gentle pull, the previously tightly closed door immediately twisted into an exaggerated shape.

It looked as if it had been grasped by a giant hand, then kneaded and rubbed together, making it impossible to discern its original shape.

Inside the chaotic room lay two corpses: one was an ordinary person, and the other had mutated.

Judging from the attire of the two corpses, they should have been a family, but they died together at the entrance to the living room.

A thin girl hid behind a chair, looking at Tang Zhen with a terrified expression.

"Don't be afraid, Uncle will take you away."

Seeing Tang Zhen's smiling face, the little girl gradually lowered her guard and slowly walked towards him.

"Tell your uncle, what happened here?"

The girl hesitated for a moment, then said in a dry, hoarse voice, "Mom turned into a monster. Dad didn't want anyone to kill her, so he tied her up with a rope."

My father accidentally got bitten on the neck by my mother. He told me to stay home and wait quietly for rescue, and then he shot and killed both my mother and himself.

As the girl spoke, tears began to flow again.
