Chapter 219 Come Back! My Power! (5k+ votes needed~)

All humans experience fear.

Some people fear towering mountains, some fear the ocean, some fear poisonous insects, and some fear hunting dogs.
But the most primal fear of humankind is the darkness that limits our vision, the fear of predators lurking in the shadows.

In the darkness, what is even more terrifying is the thunder.

The entire city of Hexie covers an area of ​​over 10 square kilometers. In my previous life, such an area was larger than that of a country where people would feel sorry for eating corn cobs all year round!

Originally, everyone was busy dealing with the things in front of them with their heads down.

Not many people pay attention to the celestial phenomena overhead.

When a cloud covering an area of ​​over 10 square kilometers appears overhead in Hexie City, experts say it is a magical natural phenomenon that has not appeared for hundreds or thousands of years.

In order to name this amazing natural phenomenon, the experts even beat the dog's brain out.

Now, the lightning clouds covering an area of ​​over 10 square kilometers are beginning to reveal themselves.

The entire city was plunged into darkness, but the lightning flashed brightly, making the city dazzling.

A person who had just walked out of a bar with a hangover, groggily raised their head, and after their rationality had been stripped away, asked the people around them in a daze.
Who hung the bar's ambient lighting up into the sky?

The next second, a bolt of lightning struck him directly on the head.

After standing there trembling for a while, the completely sober drunkard turned around and ran away!
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"

"Where's the lightning rod?!"

How could a lightning rod be completely useless?

"Damn it! I'm going to file a complaint!"

"."

After Lin Hao cleverly used a lightning rod to get through the tribulation cloud, the tribulation cloud began to self-correct.

After all, according to the "observation" of the thundercloud, almost all buildings in the city have lightning rods.

So, how can one become the lightning tribulation and strike the person they want?

First and foremost, we need a lot of powerful and aggressive Thunder.

Secondly, the tribulation of lightning needs to be "approachable" and can no longer be aloof and superior.

The remaining rational people in Kawakami City watched helplessly as the clouds that filled the entire sky slowly...
It landed!!!

It roared with thunder and divine might.

Originally, some people had gone mad because their lust had robbed them of too much reason, but under the most primal fear of this thunder, they all regained their sanity.

who am I?
where am I?
Why am I still here instead of running away?
Then, he watched helplessly as a bolt of lightning struck straight down towards his head.

despair.

Powerless.

Everything in front of me was a vast expanse of white.

My body completely lost sensation, only a tingling or numb feeling remained.

After the tingling sensation subsided, it felt like... I was still alive!
Mom, I want to go home!!!
River City has fallen from one kind of chaos into another.

"Please everyone follow the traffic rules in an orderly manner."

"There are now over 10000 lightning protection points open in River City. Residents still in the city are advised to go to the nearest one!"

"The urban management officers will direct traffic nearby. If anyone takes advantage of the chaos to smash, loot, or vandalize, they will be subdued on the spot. If the circumstances are serious, they may be killed on the spot."

The milk tea powder packets sponsored by Lin Hao have also begun to be delivered through the city's errand-running force!

"This milk tea powder packet is very important; it must be delivered to the designated person!"

The Happy Milk Tea brand began to spread throughout the streets and alleys.

"Grandpa, will Lin Hao be alright?"

Sitting on the plane, Li Chuchu asked her grandfather with some anxiety.

Old Master Li shrugged, indicating that he did not know:
Why don't you ask him yourself?

“But I’m worried that leaving him a message will interfere with his important business,” Li Chuchu said thoughtfully.

"Tsk tsk tsk." Old Master Li shook his head, glanced at Li's father, and chuckled:

"Should we call the girl's mother now? What can we grown men do to comfort her?"

Just as Old Master Li was joking around with a smile, his expression suddenly turned serious. Based on his senses, he went to the airplane window and looked in the direction of River City.

Now, it has flown far away from River City.

However, Old Master Li could clearly see that the entire city of Hexie was enveloped in the range of thunder.

Even now, inside the plane, Mr. Li felt a pang of heart palpitation.

Li Chuchu followed her grandfather's gaze, her eyes filled with even more worry.

"Grandpa, is this extraordinary power?"

Grandpa Li shook his head subconsciously.

No human power could possibly have caused this; it seems the entire city of Hexie is now shrouded in that thunder.

His grandfather lived for so long, and he didn't...
No, it seems there really are superhumans in the central city who can do that, but why would someone who's barely human go to a remote place like River City?

But if that's really the kind of person...
A flicker of fear flashed in Old Master Li's eyes.

Grandpa Li and Li's father exchanged a glance, both sensing the fear in each other's eyes.

"Grandpa, say something!" Li Chuchu tugged at Grandpa Li's clothes, somewhat anxiously.

"Of course. It's impossible for someone to have such extraordinary power." Old Master Li decided to tell a lie after all.

Now that my daughter knows that there really are powerful people in this world who can change the world, what good is it except making her worry more about her beloved?
Li Chuchu: Really?

Grandpa Li: "Of course it's true. Would your grandpa lie to you?"

Grandpa Li patted Li Chuchu on the shoulder and smiled:
"You're just worried sick. Look at this lightning; it should encompass the entire River City. What supernatural power could do that? If someone had such power, would they still be a supernatural being? Wouldn't it be something only a god could do?"

At the opportune moment, Li's father also handed the phone to Li Chuchu:
"I set my phone location to River City, and now all the social media in River City is about this massive thunderstorm. It's happening in every corner of River City."

Li's father's meaning was clear: what kind of power could possibly mobilize the mighty forces of nature to cover the entire city with lightning?
Seeing that her father and grandfather both said so, Li Chuchu looked at the report about Hexie City more carefully and felt that what her father and grandfather said made sense.

The city of Hexie is so big, how could anyone possess such immense power?
"Whoo~"

Li Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief; Lin Hao should be alright.

Li Chuchu looked away from her phone screen and her eyes widened in surprise at the teasing looks on her father's and grandfather's faces.

"I'm just worried about Lin Hao, who just borrowed so much money from me. If something happens to him, I don't know who I should ask for the money back!"

Hearing her sister's slightly shy voice, Qianqian, who had been eating snacks, stared blankly in Lei Yun's direction and swallowed hard.

That thundercloud looks delicious, and
That thundercloud clearly carried the aura of Teacher Lin. Is Teacher Lin really that strong?
The power of gluttony resides within Qianqian, a mixture of greed and fear.

Qianqian then showed off two large bags of potato chips in one go.

Just as Qianqian was about to open another bag of potato chips, Li Chuchu patted Qianqian's hand:

"How much of this snack have you eaten today? Try something different. Even though your superpower is eating, you still need to maintain a balanced diet!"

Qianqian nodded obediently. Her sister still cared about her. Her sister was such a good person.

Qianqian decided to start by eating a dozen or so bags of chocolate.
But looking at the books Li Chuchu handed him: "Winning at the Starting Line! Elementary School General Knowledge," "Little Champion's Summer All-in-One Guide!", "Complete Collection of Mathematical Problem Solving!", and "10000 Mental Arithmetic Problems Every Day."
flourishing:???
Li Chuchu: "Can't you gain knowledge from books by eating them?"

Qianqian: "Yes, but the book tastes bad."

Li Chuchu: "It's okay if you don't want to eat. You can eat other things while you watch. These are all prepared for you. You have to finish learning before you can continue to help out at the shop."

Qianqian thought for a moment, gritted her teeth, and began to study.

Grandpa Li and Li's father were seeing Qianqian eat books for the first time, especially since she was eating them with milk tea powder packets on them, which made it even stranger.

Mr. Li nudged Li Chuchu and asked in a low voice:
"Won't there be any problems eating like this?"

Li Chuchu shook her head, indicating that this was Qianqian's ability, and that preventing Qianqian from eating would be the real problem.

Just as Li Chuchu was explaining Qianqian's abilities to her father, a clap of thunder, growing louder as it approached, rang in their ears.

That thunder was huge!

Li Chuchu subconsciously felt a slight chill on her neck. She realized she had been frightened. She had just thought that she was not young anymore, so why was she acting like a child, afraid of thunder?
Qianqian suddenly looked up, opened her mouth and sucked hard in Li Chuchu's direction, like she was sucking noodles, and then the girl covered her mouth.

From Li Chuchu's perspective, it looked like there was a snake swimming inside Qianqian's mouth, trying to escape.

Her cheeks puffed out one after the other, but because Qianqian covered her mouth and chewed frantically, the food couldn't escape from her mouth.

Gradually, the thing in Qianqian's mouth seemed to lose its strength to resist, so Qianqian tilted her head back and swallowed it all in one gulp. After Qianqian ate what was in her mouth, Li Chuchu felt that she seemed to have grown up a bit, and her appearance had changed.
She possessed a touch of allure.

Li Chuchu: "Qianqian, what did you just eat?"

Qianqian: "I don't know, but I thought it tasted good. The power seemed to originate from the same source as me, so I ate it. That thing just now came out of my sister's body."

"Ahhhh!!!"

"Brother Blackie, do you like this kind of thing? Loosen your grip a little, it hurts a bit."

Lust writhed her body, her allure natural.

However, no matter how she tried to provoke the Black Impermanence in front of her, she could not get his attention, and naturally she could not break free from his restraints.

Lust did hear Black Impermanence's mutterings, but...
Can't understand.

It is not any language that lust is familiar with.

But at least Lust now knows that the other party is not mute, and that the other party is probably not a local of River City.

She planted her power in almost everyone in River City, but they had never heard of this language.

But this was a completely useless piece of intelligence.

Lust is something I want to get rid of right now.

However, she herself had no way of leaving.

Why is it that such a grown man can't even untie himself when he's being seduced?

Lust is self-evident. Even the captain, when faced with his seduction, would have male instincts and would occasionally let her walk around the [Church Prison] without being bound by chains.

However, Black Impermanence was not moved at all by her seduction.

Moreover, lust can sense that this lack of attraction is not a hypocritical pretense, but rather a sign that one doesn't even look at oneself.

As the bond between his soul and the captain's weakened, his sense of crisis regarding lust grew stronger.

She could no longer convince herself that the other person's power was merely the creation of illusions.

At this critical juncture, the combination of lust and desire reveals reports about Black Impermanence from the perspective of those inside the warehouse. Black Impermanence's logic seems to be to find someone and then complete the work for that person.

Given the current situation, the person he's looking for is most likely the captain of the urban management brigade in Hexie City.

After the captain's soul completely separated from his own, Black Impermanence and the captain began to "work," while Lust did not think he would get anything good out of it.

It was greed that caused this trouble.

If only I had run away the moment I saw Black Impermanence, I wouldn't have been able to escape now.

Lust ceased its writhing and struggling, looked at Black Impermanence, and said earnestly:
"Brother Hei, I hope that next time I see you, you won't be so heartless and will have a nice chat with me."

After he finished speaking, the aura of lust suddenly dissipated.

The souls trapped in the chains of the Black Impermanence still have the same facial features, but they have indeed lost their original charming appearance.

Black Impermanence glanced at it but ignored it.

Now His work is much easier; the backstroke mullet is now completely still.

"Ah~"

A woman's soft voice echoed in the secret room.

She patted her cheeks, turned off the monitor, and looked at herself on the screen. She gave a slight smile.

"It's been such a long, long time since I've felt this complete control over my body."

Lust stretched her body; the feeling of physical intimacy was wonderful.

The soul, body, and identity that were once within reach are now gone, which is a great pity.
A strong female lead will not regret what she has lost!

River City is now somewhat out of my control; I'll leave first.

Before leaving, let's first reclaim all the power that River City has cultivated.

"Come back, my strength."

The lustful senator stood in the secret room, hands raised, waiting for his power to return.

The sacrifice of an entire city can definitely elevate one's strength to a new level.

After so many years and so much effort, I'm confident that I'll be satisfied with what I've built up over the years.

Once we've stabilized our strength and thoroughly investigated Hei Wuchang's background, we'll reclaim all the face and substance we gained today!

The lustful senator dreamed of reclaiming his rightful power and status, imagining the River City, now a ghost town, after the captain recovered, and of making Black Impermanence his devoted subject.
想了
One minute.

Two minutes.

three minutes.
The room was quiet, and the senator, embracing the sky with lust, felt an indescribable awkwardness in the air.

There was a clear connection between them and the power, but no power returned to them.

What exactly is going on?

Although he separated the power from his body when he planted it, so that the captain wouldn't sense it, his power, in the end, still belongs to him.

The chaotic relationships between men and women in Heisei City are irrefutable proof of the reflection of his own power.

The rationality and skill in using power that flowed continuously when he wanted to possess the captain's soul.

However, when it comes to recalling these forces...
Where has the power gone?

The lustful senator felt boundless fear.

She didn't feel this terror even when she was imprisoned in the church prison.

She swallowed hard, sensing that if she pushed open the door to this secret room, a great terror awaited her outside.

The lustful senator took a deep breath, suppressing his unease.

As he cupped his hands towards the void, a calming power rapidly gathered within his palms.

She can also use her power to strip people of their reason.

The power remains.

However, for some reason, his own power cannot be returned for the time being.

Don't panic!
Don't panic!
When you encounter a problem, talk to a group of friends first.
The lustful senator returned to the computer screen, opened a webpage, and entered the key—

[The Extraordinary Universal School: A Loving Family (7)]

【A-Lustful Big Sister】: Family, help!

Soon after, someone replied in the group.

[Lazy (Lying Down Version)]: Lust, you haven't been online for a while.

Upon seeing the reply from "Lazy (lying down)", the lustful senator frowned.

Has something happened to the attached consciousness I left in River City?

The Lustful Councilor knew the key information within this group; besides her, only she, who had severed her subordinate consciousness, knew it.

Severing the subordinate consciousness is a dangerous thing. If the subordinate consciousness is not controlled by the main consciousness for a long time, it is very likely to want to rebel.

Therefore, when she severed her subordinate consciousness, the senator of lust did not give her much power. What was imprinted on her most basic consciousness was "fear of herself" and "spreading the power of lust".

But now that the lazy councilor is saying this in the group, it seems that his subordinate consciousness has probably already disappeared.

This river city is becoming increasingly out of my control.

Gotta go!

[A-Lustful Older Sister] initiated a group call—

A short while later, an old man appeared in the erotic scene.
Even through the screen, the lustful senile politician could sense his lethargy.

Can such laziness really help you?

Or perhaps we should wait and see if any other legislators will be called up.

The elderly man on the screen shakily picked up his reading glasses clipped to his chest, slowly put them on, carefully examined the screen, and then clicked his tongue.

"Lustful Congressman, you really are getting more and more beautiful. What brings you here today?"

The lustful senator thought for a moment and first briefly explained his situation to the old man.

The old man listened quietly, and after the lustful senator finished speaking, he scratched his hairless chin and muttered:
"Black Impermanence in Hexie City, White Impermanence in Kechen City—is there any connection between these two? Or is it just a simple coincidence?"
