Ultimate Master in Urban

Chapter 1854 - 1885: Contaminated Water Source

The Power of Faith in the Red Realm brought such great benefits to Ye Feng, leaving him quite delighted.Ye Feng really couldn't imagine, if a large number of Purple Believers were to appear, what kind of grand spectacle that would be?

Perhaps, surrounded by such power of believers, that damaged Blue Incense Burner could be restored to its original state in an instant?

What's more, on top of the power of the Purple Believers, there is even the more formidable Ice Level. If this level is reached, the concentration of the Power of Faith generated will be quite significant.

Thinking of these in his heart, Ye Feng felt extremely comfortable, and the grief and anger brought by the deaths of people on Earth also completely dissipated.

Since Ye Feng had decided to properly reorganize the cities on Earth, he needed to have a goal, and the first goal was naturally Jiangnan City.

As the most prosperous city on Earth, the degree of destruction Jiangnan City had suffered was self-evident.

Although no Fierce Beasts had appeared any longer, various kinds of internal conflicts among humans themselves kept occurring incessantly.

These internal conflicts, although partially suppressed through spectacles, still had hidden potential and could erupt at critical moments.

Furthermore, Jiangnan City, whether economically or otherwise, had suffered extreme devastation.

At that moment, Jiangnan City could not even ensure the most basic food supply, and even the water sources necessary for survival had been seriously polluted.

With just a sweep of his Divine Sense, Ye Feng immediately understood the myriad of problems Jiangnan City was facing. Under such problems, everyone could only support themselves for a short time. If it went on for too long, they would starve or die of thirst on their own before the arrival of any Fierce Beast.

To the east of Jiangnan City, a river came down from the north of Jiangnan City, circling the east, and flowed forward.

At that moment, the water in this river was roaring, and on both sides of the river, people were crowded, with eyes filled with a faint sense of longing and hope.

Everyone was closely watching the flowing water in the river, and even though they were extremely thirsty at heart, they had no urge to take a sip when they saw the Black water in the river.

Because in that river water, not only were there a large number of Red worms crawling around, but countless flies were also buzzing back and forth on the river's surface.

All of this made the river extremely filthy, incredibly eerie.

But as time passed, individuals who were desperately thirsty only felt their bodies tremble, felt their hearts very uncomfortable, and felt the power within their bodies rapidly depleting, they swallowed a mouthful of already dried-up saliva and then rushed towards that river impulsively.

"Damn it, I just don't believe it, I refuse to believe I will die of thirst here, or get poisoned here like this."

Those rushing forward shouted in this manner, bowed their heads, and gulped down the river water.

As they swallowed mouthful after mouthful of river water, a look of satisfaction appeared on their faces, as if their long-parched bodies had received a short burst of relief, becoming extremely hydrated.

But this state only lasted for a moment, and then an unexpected incident occurred. It was seen that those who had just swallowed this water tightly clutched their necks.

As if something was crazily wriggling at their necks, and as they made that neck-clutching action, Black smoke continued to spew from their mouths.

As soon as this smoke appeared, their skin began to shrivel, as if the blood in their skin had been instantly devoured by some terrifying thing.

When all of this happened, the people surrounding both sides of the river became extremely terrified, subconsciously retreating a few steps backward.

Those who drank the water widened their eyes, turned around, looked at those retreating, and hoarsely called out, "Help, help, save us, save us…."

The interrupted sounds transmitted made these people extremely despair, they didn't expect that merely drinking a few sips of river water would actually lead to poisoning and death like this.

Thinking of death, their bodies trembled incessantly, their hearts howled endlessly, "How can we die like this? The disaster has subsided, how can we die like this? Can't die, can't die, must not die."

Regrettably, no matter how they screamed, they couldn't change their fate of dying.

As thumping sounds were heard, these who drank river water fell to the ground unwillingly.

Their breath became fleeting, eyes rolled, dazedly staring at the sky, their will to survive was that strong.

Finally, their bodies stiffened, and they died.

The others, watching these people who drank river water dying right before them, felt immense fear.

Their gaze, sweeping forward a bit, felt a cold sweat forming in their palms, a rush of cold air making them shrink their necks.

"I told you, this water is not drinkable, now see, all who drank the water are dead, right?"

"But what can be done without drinking? Isn't not drinking just as fatal? Don't you know, this is already the last source of water here?"

"Yes, this river is the last water source for the whole Jiangnan City, the once clear water has turned into this, it looks like the heavens want to cut off our path of survival."

"..."

As the murmuring voices spread, everyone unwillingly gazed ahead, a trace of despair also appeared in their eyes, all pondering, would the next to die be themselves?

Almost instantaneously, this thought spread through everyone's minds, making everyone uneasy.

At this moment, an old man in a bamboo hat suddenly looked up at the sky, muttering to himself, "Don't we still have the Divine? If we pray to them, they will surely intervene and help us, they wouldn't just watch us perish."

Upon hearing these words, everyone recalled the scenes of the Divine's intervention, a glimmer of light flashed in their hearts, and the dead intention in their hearts seemed to come alive again, making them somewhat excited.
