Rotten God Kingdom

The health cult members made way for the woman, who walked over through the bloodstains and bullet casings, glanced at the corpse on the ground, and remained calm.

"Cleaning staff." The woman looked up at Jiang Wang and the others. "It's been a long time since any cleaning staff have come here."

Lü Ang gripped the dagger without speaking.

Jiang Wang kept his gun pointed at her.

The woman's abilities just now made Jiang Wang wary.

However, for now, this woman's ability seems to only target diseases, just like Jiang Wang's lung fire, so Jiang Wang is not yet worried or afraid.

The woman's gaze swept over Jiang Wang and the others one by one, finally landing on Ah Le in the distance.

"When did you sanitation workers start doing charity work?"

Lü Ang grinned and said, "Occasionally."

"If you leave now, we can pretend nothing happened." The woman quietly lit a cigarette. She saw Hu Chengyu pick up his phone to edit a text message, but she didn't know if the message had been sent.

It's too late.

Jiang Wang walked up to the woman and carefully examined her appearance.

"You know Wang Chong and Han Lin, and you know why we're here. Hand over Han Yue, or tell us her whereabouts, and stop all your operations in the Sick City, and we can pretend none of this ever happened."

Hu Chengyu waved his phone: "The text message is already edited. I only need to move my fingers. Regardless of whether we can get out of here today, the Cleanup Bureau will know about this place."

The woman remained silent for a moment, the cigarette between her fingers burned a small section, and the ash fell quietly to the ground.

"I can only tell you that Han Yue has left this place. As for where they are now, I don't know."

Jiang Wang smiled and said, "Lying won't work. How many people are there? The Cleanup Bureau wouldn't even need to exert much effort to wipe you all out."

The Cleanup Bureau is the largest violent organization in the city of sickness. No other organization can compete with the Cleanup Bureau in terms of force, which is why Jiang Wang and his team have always acted so directly.

Once you find a clue, just run over it; there's no need to spend time devising any schemes.

The only problem is that this group of people has been hiding and is not easy to find.

Now that their hideout has been found, it's like finding their Achilles' heel.

Then there's even less to worry about.

"If you don't believe me, you can come in and see for yourselves. We have never stopped anyone from coming in, not even those people from the garbage dump. As long as they can find this place, we will accept them."

Lü Ang chuckled: "Really? That welcoming ceremony was quite interesting. Your hospitality is rather unique."

The woman's expression was indifferent: "If you haven't come with malicious intent, we won't take action."

Now, do you dare go in and take a look? If you don't believe what I say, then why don't you go in and verify it yourselves?

Jiang Wang and Lü Ang already had a tacit understanding. This time, they didn't even exchange glances. Jiang Wang first took Ah Le from Lü Ang and walked directly past the Health Cult members toward the sycamore tree.

The group watched coldly, and not one of them fired a shot.

The woman knelt down in front of Ah Le, her eyes filled with pity and heartache. She gently stroked Ah Le's cheek and softly asked, "Do you want to be healthy?"

"What is health?" Ah Le's expression was filled with fear and confusion.

The fear stemmed from the strange aunt in front of him being so gentle for some reason; this gentleness made Ah Le feel like he was facing his mother.

She was bewildered because she had never heard the word "health" before and had no idea what it meant.

"It means that the pain in my body is gone, and I can breathe and run like a normal child."

Ah Le has been tormented by illness since birth. She cannot imagine what it would be like to be free from pain, but the scene described by the aunt in front of her makes her instinctively yearn for it.

"I want to." Ah Le nodded emphatically.

Jiang Wang felt that the air around him seemed to have become thicker, and at the same time, the pain in his lungs was gradually lessening.

Jiang Wang frowned and subconsciously moved away a little.

Ah Le's sallow skin began to peel off, revealing new, fair skin. His breathing gradually became smoother, and his limbs looked the same as before. However, Ah Le could feel that his limbs were no longer as heavy as before. In a place that Ah Le could not see, the huge tumor in his abdomen was slowly dissolving.

This is simply a miracle.

"And the price?" Jiang Wang asked.

Every miracle comes at a price, especially in this apocalyptic world.

To gain superpowers, one must follow certain rules and engage in equivalent exchange.

With just a few taps, Ah Le's numerous ailments were resolved. If there were no cost, the health cult wouldn't be hiding in the garbage dump.

The woman stood up: "The price is that she cannot return to the City of Disease, otherwise she will most likely be killed by the many kinds of germs in the City of Disease in a very short time. From then on, she can only live here or go outside the City of Disease. In addition, she has a maximum of thirty years left to live."

Is it at the cost of overdrawing one's life?

Jiang Wang frowned.

This is not necessarily a good thing.

It's impossible for a person to only get sick once in their lifetime. If they get sick again and need treatment, will their lifespan be shortened?

"It's worth it for her, isn't it? If I don't help her, how long can she live? A month? Two months? She might never wake up again tomorrow."

"And now she can live a normal life, free from the torment of illness, for another thirty years. If he wants, they can even have a child." The woman's tone was still calm, but Jiang Wang could hear the pride hidden in her voice as she spoke.

It's like the world is about to end, and you happen to be the chosen savior.

It carried an indescribable arrogance.

Ah Le reached out and poked his arm, then poked his stomach.

I didn't feel any pain or discomfort.

The whole process took no more than a minute, but for Ah Le, that minute felt like being reborn.

Ah Le knelt before the woman, tears streaming down his face: "Please, please save my mother."

Jiang Wang didn't say anything more when he saw this.

For a seriously ill patient, the best outcome is to be cured of the disease, the next best is to see hope for a cure, the next best is to end the suffering directly, and the last best is to endure the pain while lying in a hospital bed.

Seeing a glimmer of hope, Ah Le naturally wanted to save his mother.

"Since you have this ability, why don't you save the other people in the garbage dump? Also, why don't you contact the First Hospital? You have the ability to heal, the hospital would definitely treat you like a VIP." Jiang Wang felt that there was another secret hidden here.

The woman looked at Jiang Wang and replied, "Look at this place, how many people can live here? This land has long been polluted and cannot be cultivated. In order to feed us, we can only send people to work in the sick city and use their wages to buy supplies and send them in."

When we have the capacity, we will help the poor people in other residential areas within the landfill, but that is the limit of our ability.

Regarding your second question, firstly, the abilities I've demonstrated don't belong to myself, but to this land.

The woman strode forward, leading Jiang Wang and the others, leaving behind a meaningful remark.

"The purpose of hospitals is not to cure diseases, but to control the condition, which is contrary to our principles."
