I Am Not The God Of Drama Chapter 284

[ … words ]

The piercingly cold wind made whining sounds in front of the dead silent small building, like weeping and like complaining.

The hand Zhao Yi was holding the Note with, was uncontrollably trembling. He was like a wild beast that was about to collapse, ferociously opening his mouth, wanting to furiously roar, yet could only emit painful whining sounds…

His right hand abruptly clenched into a fist, forcefully smashing all his anger and despair towards the ground!

Boom——!!

A wave of air visible to the naked eye rippled out towards the surroundings, instantly shattering all the ice frost around, ferocious cracks crazily spreading in all directions like a spider web.

Zhao Yi took a deep breath. Several completely different bizarre voices overlapped together, resoundingly shaking like a volcano:

“…In this city, who is selling Coal??!!”

“The Three Great Merchant Associations.” After Dr. Yi left the headquarters, he had always been aimlessly wandering on the road. He looked at the Zhao Yi who was about to go berserk, slowly answering, “Right over there at the Century Tower in the city center…”

Zhao Yi stumbled climbing up from the ground. A burst of terrifying Oppressive Aura mixed with grim killing intent, exploded open from this black monster’s body like a tide!

Swoosh——!!

A thunder-like sound exploded resoundingly. His figure dragged out an afterimage, instantly disappearing on the spot.

The debris of ice frost fluttered in the air. Dr. Yi still laid on the ground like a corpse, not caring in the slightest about what Zhao Yi was going to do… He slightly turned his head sideways, looking at Ling’er fallen beside him, even her slender eyelashes were frozen together by ice and snow.

He looked at this porcelain doll-like exquisite girl. Deep guilt and despair emerged anew in his eyes… If, if his research could have had some results, perhaps all of this wouldn’t have happened.

The Aurora Base’s accumulation of over three hundred years, only then had the Aurora Domain of today… yet a tiny “Pump”, unexpectedly then became the last straw destroying this Realm. The science humanity once took pride in, the material civilization they once thought was enough to rule nature, before true the unknown, was fundamentally unable to withstand a single blow.

Dr. Yi blankly stared at the sky overhead. He had stayed in the Aurora Base for over a dozen years, already having a very long time since he truly raised his head to look at the sky… but at this moment, he suddenly felt, looking at the sky on the surface and looking at the cement board in the base, actually didn’t have too much difference.

An empty sky without the existence of hope, and a depressing rampart that makes people unable to catch their breath, what difference did they have?

Dr. Yi was silent for a long time, suddenly laughing.

He groped to pull out the Handgun from his waist. Calmly and despairingly, he pressed the gun muzzle against his own temple, slowly closing his eyes.

“…This f*cked up Era.”

Bang——!

The sound of a gunshot, blood flowers bloomed in the abyss of despair, resembling countless devoured shouts, silencing the mortal world.

…

“You guys better not have accidents ah…”

“Me being unlucky alone is enough, don’t involve my family…”

Jian Changsheng sped on the road fully frozen with ice frost. On both sides of the road, from time to time one could see pedestrians frozen to death or frozen unconscious, or residents still bitterly struggling seeking warmth.

He saw everything in his eyes, feeling increasingly worried in his heart, only able to constantly pray.

A burst of noisy clamoring sound transmitted from not far away. Jian Changsheng took a glance to the side, only seeing on a broad main road, densely packed figures were currently crowded together, seemingly fighting over something.

Jian Changsheng originally didn’t plan to stop, but right when he was about to withdraw his gaze, several familiar figures appeared in the crowd.

“Maternal Uncle?!”

Jian Changsheng’s eyes lit up, immediately turning direction charging towards the crowd, grabbing the shoulder of a Middle-Aged Man crowding in the crowd with one handful.

“Maternal Uncle, why are you here?”

“Little Jian?”

The Maternal Uncle turned his head seeing Jian Changsheng, also blanking out. “Are you also here to buy Coal?”

“…Coal?”

Jian Changsheng raised his head looking over. The first to reflect into his eyes, was a tower with a quaint and grand model. This was the Aurora City’s highest building at present. And this road crowded with countless people below it, was also one of the Aurora City’s most core main roads, it was just at this time it was already blocked to the point not even a drop of water could leak through by people… A bit further forward, was exactly the central district’s Boiler Factory that was already no longer operating.

He only saw amidst the densely packed crowd that was currently surrounding the front of the Boiler Factory, from time to time chaotic fighting and scolding sounds were transmitted. Those people in the front rows gripped banknotes in their hands, crazily waving, seemingly lining up waiting to buy coal.

Perhaps because too many people gathered, the temperature here was slightly higher than other places, but even so, the faces of those people were also frozen red.

“Buying Coal, is the formation this big?” Jian Changsheng spoke uncomprehendingly.

“You don’t know? Now the price of Coal has already been speculated to the sky… ordinary families fundamentally can’t afford it, but in order to stay alive, they can only find people to piece together to buy and use together. However not everyone will honestly and obediently cooperate. Robbing coal, robbing money, beating people… here is already completely a mess.”

“Speculated to the sky? How expensive can Coal be?”

“Five hundred thousand, one kilogram.”

“Five hundred thousand????” Jian Changsheng widened his eyes. “Are they crazy? This expensive Coal, there are really people willing to spend money to buy it? Since they are robbing anyway, why not directly go rob the Boiler Factory??”

The Maternal Uncle extended his hand, pointing at the front of the Boiler Factory. Many figures surrounded together, like a human wall staring at every person who came to trade. Among them there were even several Law Enforcers, their palms resting on their gun handles, their expressions somewhat unfriendly.

And behind them, a Squinting Man was currently leaning against the wall standing beside the Boiler Factory door. His both hands were even stained with a few wisps of fresh blood. A burst of faintly discernible Oppressive Aura shrouded the entire empty space in front of the Boiler Factory into it.

A Divine Path Possessor?

Seeing this scene, Jian Changsheng’s brows frowned tighter and tighter.

“Do the Enforcers not care?”

“Have already come several waves… but in the end they didn’t do anything, just standing at the side watching.” The Maternal Uncle sighed. “This gang of people is extremely cunning. Just now someone instigated the crowd wanting to go in together to rob. As a result before even entering the door, they were entirely shocked unconscious by that Squinting Man, and moreover there weren’t any external injuries on their bodies, even if they wanted to convict them of the crime of injuring people they couldn’t convict…”

Just as Jian Changsheng was about to say something, the Maternal Uncle’s figure was then squeezed by the surrounding people to walk forward.

“Little Jian! Just wait for me outside, did you hear… Maternal Uncle I still have a bit of pension money, enough to buy a bit. Go back home with me later, absolutely do not fall asleep outside…”

Before the Maternal Uncle’s voice fell, he was then squeezed to a distance by the crowd. The surrounding noisy clamoring sounds submerged his words, Jian Changsheng in the back fundamentally didn’t hear clearly.

Jian Changsheng looked at those figures bitterly struggling to cross in the tide of the Era. In a trance, silk threads seemed to extend from their bodies. Like puppets being manipulated by people, pleading, furiously scolding, putting their all to want to stay alive, yet in the end being squeezed dry of all value… And at the ends of those silk threads, gripping their destiny, was the greed and ambition of the superiors that they couldn’t see with their naked eyes.

Jian Changsheng’s both fists unconsciously clenched up. His gaze raised up, looking towards the center of the Boiler Factory, at that chimney that had already no longer been operating since long ago.
