Chapter 301. The Spark That Ignites the Great War (Part 301)

At 10 p.m., Jiang Jianxin arrived at the eastern district of Qiubai City under the cover of darkness.

There is a polluted area here that Rose Traffic cannot handle, called "Pure White Wedding," which is a very chaotic polluted area.

Rose Traffic lost a lot of manpower here, so they had no choice but to ask her to clean it up.

After soloing the contaminated area for several months, Jiang Jianxin also gained experience.

Such chaotic and contaminated areas are usually subject to mental interference, so we need to call upon the answer and the truth to go out together.

Since dying once in Tingyutan, it has become increasingly easier for her to connect with her intuition. Basically, she only needs to call out to her intuition, and the other party will immediately come online.

This time was no exception; Jiang Jianxin voiced his intuition.

The latter seemed very excited:
If you clean up this contaminated area quickly, you'll be able to witness a historic moment when you emerge.

【? 】

Jiang Jianxin thought of the pitch-black neighboring city he had just seen and asked suspiciously:

Is it related to the neighboring city?

Is something big about to happen?

Intuitively, I answered:
[It's not that small. We've already said it's a historic moment; you'd be missing out if you didn't come.]

[I'll keep the specifics a secret for now; I sensed it through my omniscient perception.]

Jiang Jianxin didn't say anything else, but just walked towards the entrance of the Pure White Wedding polluted area.

This contaminated area is inside the building and has a clearly defined entrance. Originally, Rose Transportation would have placed this contaminated area at the lowest risk level and dealt with it last.

But recently it has shown a tendency to expand, and has even started to forcibly enter outsiders.

As a result, the level of danger skyrockets.

Jiang Jianxin arrived near the contaminated area and discovered that it was a hotel.

She pushed open the half-suspended, twisted and deformed revolving door of the hotel and stepped into the lobby.

The once gleaming marble floor of the hotel lobby is long gone, replaced by a thick layer of silt composed of wall debris, glass shards, and unidentified ash, which makes a rustling sound when stepped on.

The massive floor tiles were ripped open and shattered by the powerful impact, revealing the jagged concrete base beneath. Some of the craters still bore charred marks on their edges, resembling the claw marks left by a giant beast.

The once luxurious crystal chandelier is now just a few twisted metal frames, pitifully hanging from the open ceiling. Occasionally, a breeze blows in through the broken window, causing it to creak and groan, as if it would fall completely at any moment.

The surrounding wallpaper was also torn into strips of rags by the shockwave, charred and curled up, revealing the plasterboard or brick wall riddled with holes behind it.

Bullet holes, shrapnel scratches, and molten marks from energy weapons covered every inch of the facade, the colors of which were monotonous yet glaring black, gray, and pale white.

The velvet sofas and armchairs that once provided a place for guests to rest now have their internal fillings burst out like filthy intestines, licked by flames and reduced to charred frames, scattered like the withered bones of monsters in the ruins.

The wide main staircase leading to the second floor has collapsed in most places, as if it had been gnawed by a giant beast.

Therefore, all the defensive forces were concentrated on the relatively narrow service staircase on the side.

There, temporary fortifications were erected with sandbags and metal barriers, and the shielding shields, flashing with blue light, emitted a low hum.

Several exquisitely designed, large-caliber mortars with rainbow-colored rings flashing on their muzzles stood like silent behemoths, steadily mounted at the rear, their muzzles slightly raised, locked on the corner platform of the stairs above, exuding a tense, imminent fighting spirit.

The soldiers from Rose Transportation were concealed behind this makeshift bunker, firing sniper rifles at Jiang Jianxin. Upon seeing her, the person in charge of the contaminated zone, who was directing the battle, pulled her aside and said:
"Your Grace, you've finally arrived. The situation on the second floor isn't good. We'll have mortars cover your ascent in a bit."

Jiang Jianxin nodded, and then said apologetically:
"The previous contaminated area took a while to be processed, so I missed the subway... I had to wait for the next subway, which is why I was a little late."

The person in charge said:
"It's alright, it's alright. We're just glad you came to help us."

After saying that, he quickly turned to the soldier operating the mortar and whispered instructions.

The soldiers nodded in unison, adjusted the muzzle angle, and the mechanical sound of loading was particularly clear in the dull air.

With everything ready, Jiang Jianxin took a deep breath and stepped onto the stairs leading to the second floor.

As the name of this contaminated area suggests, just as you ascend to the second floor, a huge and eerie floral archway stands prominently before you.

It is made up of countless pale and intricate artificial flowers, the shape of the petals is almost lifelike, but it has a lifeless plastic feel.

Inside the archway was not an ordinary sight, but a shimmering, distorted curtain of light, like a water mirror.

The shadowy figures within the light screen seemed to be countless human figures struggling to crawl out.

Even more chillingly, pure white wedding dresses seemed to come alive, constantly surging out from the depths of the light curtain and spreading down the stairs like flowing white viscous liquid, trying to devour the space below.

The mortars of Rose Traffic continued to roar, spewing out swarms of dazzling, colorful bubbles—their targets were these ever-expanding, downward-eroding wedding dresses.

"boom----!"

Another salvo, and a cluster of colorful bubbles crashed near the arch, creating a huge shockwave and dazzling flashes of light.

The sprawling wedding dress was temporarily forced back by the violent impact, curling inwards.

Even as the flames of the explosion had not yet dissipated, Jiang Jianxin moved with lightning speed, seizing the fleeting opening and darting into the shimmering light curtain.

The moment you enter the contaminated area, the world suddenly turns upside down.

Gravity seemed to lose its direction, and cries—sharp, piercing cries filled with despair and resentment—came from all directions, almost tearing eardrums apart.

She saw bouquets, crowns, and sparkling rings flying erratically in the air, as if she had been caught in a crazy storm.

But what is most terrifying is the monster that occupies the core.

Countless flowers twisted and intertwined, forming a serpentine, writhing body. A huge, incongruous bow adorned the serpent's form, and long lace ribbons hung like shackles, binding the flower branches. At the top of this bizarre body was not a snake's head, but a human skull.

It has no eyes; its entire face consists of a giant mouth painted with scarlet lipstick, which is forming a strange, ambiguous smile.

Her hair was replaced by countless intricate laces and tattered veils, and a huge, stained wedding dress spread out behind her like a corrupt flag.

The moment Jiang Jianxin entered, the monster sensed her presence.

The giant mouth suddenly opened, emitting a silent hiss, and lunged straight at her to bite.

Over the past month, Jiang Jianxin had already witnessed countless twisted and grotesque monsters in various contaminated areas, so the bizarre creature before her could hardly stir any emotion in her.

Intuition protects my brain.

She calmly gave the instructions in her mind.

In an instant, an invisible barrier unfolded in her consciousness.

The piercing, almost soul-shattering cry seemed to be instantly muted, reduced to indistinct background noise.

The dazzling, alluring shimmering light on the monster's veil and lace vanished completely.

When the monster's gaping maw rushed towards me, my instincts, acting as a protective filter, revealed its true nature—it was nothing more than something roughly wrapped in tattered plastic bags and cheap fiber paper, its surface even seemingly covered with rotten vegetable leaves, exuding a decaying and weak stench.

All the glitz and glamour, all the terrifying appearances, are merely illusions projected by spiritual pollution. Beneath the surface of reality lies only a bleak and decaying essence.

Without the slightest hesitation, Jiang Jianxin wielded the Grim Reaper's Scythe in his left hand, tearing through the air, while his right hand unleashed the chilling light of the Tangguang Sword. The two forces simultaneously clashed and annihilated the monster.

The dazzling golden light and the chilling white sword energy intertwined and entwined, tearing the twisted monster apart almost instantly upon contact.

"Wow————"

Countless decaying flowers and tattered paper exploded and scattered like a torrential downpour, exuding the scent of decay.

This is a speed-farming method she's recently figured out. Since there's no surveillance in the contaminated area, no one knows exactly how she clears the anomalies.

Since that's the case, she stopped pretending and simply unleashed the full power of her weapon.

"Buzz!"

The Grim Reaper's Scythe and the Tangguang Sword resonated once more, unleashing an even more powerful strike together.

A blazing white light, like a sharp blade splitting the heavens and earth, forcefully cleaved the chaotic and upside-down contaminated space in two.

The piercing cry abruptly weakened after that blow, as if its source had been cut off, eventually turning into a barely audible sigh that lingered among the ruins:

"Ode to...deathly silence..."

"Finally... I'm free..."

Where the white light dissipated, a ring jingled to the ground.

Jiang Jianxin reached out and caught it, discovering it was an extremely sparkling diamond ring.

Even amidst the gloom and filth, the main stone, the size of a pigeon's egg, shone brightly, refracting a cold and pure light.

She had no time to investigate the ring's purpose; her mind was still preoccupied with the historic moment her intuition had suggested.

So she casually tossed it into the sword intent space and hurriedly turned and left.

Therefore, she did not see that—the moment the diamond ring fell into the space, it gently collided with the tarot cards she had obtained from the underwater polluted area, instantly emitting a faint yet incredibly dazzling golden light.

"boom------!"

Just as Jiang Jianxin stepped out of the light barrier of the contaminated zone, a deafening roar suddenly exploded from afar, followed by a violent tremor that shook the earth.

She looked up abruptly and saw an incredibly bright, almost blinding light suddenly burst forth from the direction of nearby Xiayang City, instantly tearing through the night and illuminating the sky as if it were daytime.

She hurried down the stairs from the second floor and saw the person in charge of the contaminated area clutching a communication receiver. His previously calm expression turned deathly pale the moment he heard the message.

He abruptly raised his head and, at the top of his lungs, roared at the soldiers who stood ready around him:
"A state of emergency has suddenly occurred in Xiayang City! The council officer has directly ordered all armed forces in the Eastern District to assemble immediately!"

"Om————"

However, even faster than the soldiers' assembly was the high-altitude searchlight from the Rose Group's monitoring tower.

—Due to the presence of several high-threat pollution zones in Qiubai City, Rose Transportation specially constructed a gray-green monitoring tower hundreds of meters high there. Its original design purpose was to monitor the energy fluctuations and physical expansion of the local pollution zones in real time.

At this moment, the massive steel tower was emitting a deep rumble, and its huge base slowly rotated, abruptly turning the heavy searchlight on it, which was enough to illuminate the night sky, toward the direction of Xia Yang City, which was plunged into darkness and chaos.

"Om————"

In an instant, a beam of light, as intense as the light of judgment, mercilessly pierced the darkness in the distance.

All the bloodshed and evil hidden by the night was exposed at this moment.

Where the beam of light swept across, it revealed countless puppets moving erratically in the city like zombies, as well as corpses being roughly covered with sacks and being loaded onto trucks in batches.

The most fatal and infuriating aspect for the Rose Group was the horrific scene of all the main traffic arteries in Xiayang City being completely destroyed by devastating explosions.

Jiang Jianxin gasped, realizing that his intuition was right; this was truly a historic moment.

The Rose Group is not a force that will suffer injustices and then suffer in silence.

She looked up at her phone, and sure enough, three seconds later, the Ping An Forum had a new trending topic:

#Main road in Xiayang City destroyed by bombing#
#Rose Group Officially Declares War on Black Eyes Pharmaceuticals#
