Shen City
In the suburbs, remnants of arson and robbery linger, discarded bottles and condoms litter the corners, and bars are everywhere.
Burnt cars, graffiti-covered walls, and rows of brothels and bars, neon lights flashing.
This can be considered Shen City's working-class district, and also the area where the Muse Ares party is most prevalent.
Countless homeless people and lawless AM gangs gather here, making this neighborhood almost a lawless zone, with fights, prostitution, and robberies taking place even during the day.
And everywhere is a scene of dazzling lights, decadent revelry, and extreme liveliness—but now, the main street is almost deserted, all because police cars have blocked off a bar.
The officers got out of their cars, but didn't rush in; they simply surrounded the bar's entrance.
But inside the bar, the sounds of fierce fighting, rapid-fire gunshots, and occasional screams create a tense atmosphere.
The lead police officer was a strikingly beautiful and slender woman. Beneath her navy blue uniform, her figure was curvaceous, her full breasts exceptionally eye-catching.
Her tight-fitting apron accentuated her rounded curves, like the voluptuous parts of a porcelain vase.
Her shapely legs, clad in thin black stockings, were exquisitely long and shapely.
This was Lingxiu. After being sent home by the authorities from Shikishima, she hadn't rested and went straight to work the next day.
The surrounding officers were unaware of what their captain had recently experienced. They only noticed that she had become more feminine; her former slender figure had only given off an impression of elegance and competence.
Now, the changes weren't subtle; her breasts seemed fuller, her hips more rounded, and her gait slightly altered—her legs appeared wider, leaving a narrow gap of about three fingers between her knees and thighs.
As she walked, her hips swayed unconsciously, accentuating her policewoman's competence and spiritedness. Coupled with an almost unconscious, alluring, delicate beauty, like a dewy flower, she possessed an indescribable allure.
She was breathtaking; even just looking at her back would cause an involuntary arousal.
Of course, what they didn't know was that the Ling sisters possessed abundant yin energy, almost second only to those with a pure yin constitution.
Before losing their virginity, their seductive figures were concealed by their policewoman uniforms and capable demeanor, further enhanced by their focused and restrained nature.
Therefore, they gave off an impression of strength and competence stemming from their refined bearing.
But after losing their virginity, like spring water suddenly released, coupled with the previous "development,"
their feminine charm increased dramatically, naturally giving off a completely different feeling.
Lingxiu, oblivious to the gazes of her subordinates, rested her hand on the pistol at her waist, lightly biting her thin, red lips. A faint blush rose to her pretty face, as if she had been drinking.
Her experience on Shikijima was unforgettable, and she knew who the culprit was. Therefore, the screams and fighting emanating from the bar now filled her with a sense of vengeful pleasure.
Moreover, she knew who had rescued her—he was the one fighting in the bar now.
Thus, her beautiful eyes became slightly watery, complementing her flushed face, making her appear as if she were drunk.
However, this was the last bar Xu Pengxuan had ever controlled.
After these past few days of operations, Xu Pengxuan's influence had been almost completely wiped out, and the prisons were already overcrowded.
The remaining gang members who were putting up a stubborn resistance quickly weakened, and soon there was little sound left.
"Go in!"
Lingxiu waved her hand, leading the police officers waiting outside in single file.
There were no more people to deal with inside. They arrested the injured or unconscious gang members one by one, like pulling up radishes.
This scene was watched by eyes from every corner of the street.
They knew that with this last large-scale distribution point destroyed, the supply of Muse would soon become scarce.
This left them devastated, sighing and lamenting, each clutching their remaining stock like precious jewels…
Even though there were still large quantities of Muse and Ares products circulating in the market, human greed is boundless.
Having experienced the wonderful feeling of having the world in their hands, a feeling of being reborn, after using Ares,
no one wanted to return to a mundane and boring life.
As for the side effects of Ares, no one cared.
After all, the enhancement of abilities and qualities brought by this drug was obvious. Not only will it bestow upon you the intense self-confidence of a successful person, but it will also genuinely enhance your physical and intellectual abilities.
It's as if it elevates an ordinary person to the level of a genius!
Unlike traditional drugs, which ravage the body and only bring false pleasure and satisfaction.
That transformative feeling is the most addictive, making traditional drugs seem utterly unappealing.
And the cost is pitifully small!
The only downside is that prolonged use will gradually lead to a more violent personality, increased libido, uncontrollable impulses, and criminal tendencies…
Like the ancient Greek god of war.
But this problem is easily solved. During the day, they can suppress their impulses, maintaining a facade of success; at night, they can transform into orgies, robbing, raping, and indulging their lust and impulses!
But now, those good days are over.
Those left behind will likely have to be wary of each other, because the "resources" will no longer be in unlimited supply.
Those who have experienced a dramatic change in their lives will react far more strongly to the shock of falling into the mortal realm than to drug addiction!
Therefore, everyone will become a hunter, willing to kill indiscriminately for even a fingernail's worth of AM!
…
At the top of a building.
Li Dong stood there, his clothes almost undamaged despite the fierce battle.
With the help of the Divine Child, a ball of lightning essence temporarily served as an energy conduit in his dantian, enough to allow him to unleash "Yang" True Qi equivalent to Lv4.
Combined with martial arts, he was already quite formidable at Lv5.
Dealing with these small fry was a piece of cake, no difficulty whatsoever... However, after clearing out all the remaining forces and hideouts, Xu Pengxuan, or rather, Lustful Charles, was still nowhere to be found.
Not even a trace!
It was as if Lustful Charles had truly vanished from the world.
Even though all signs pointed to the disappearance of lust, he still refused to give up completely, clinging to a strange intuition.
After several days, the last hideout was destroyed, but Xu Pengxuan was still nowhere to be found.
And here, he had no leads either.
However, the operation these past few days wasn't a complete loss. At least a large number of AMs were destroyed, and the source of production on Shikijima was controlled. So even if Xu Pengxuan was alive and hiding somewhere, he probably couldn't do much.
After pondering for a while, the vibration from his phone brought him back to reality.
Although the bracelet was gradually replacing the phone, it still required a minor surgery and neural connection to transmit images.
Most superhumans couldn't use them because the flow of energy within their bodies would damage the tiny chips inside their skin. Therefore, like most ordinary people, they still used traditional mobile phones.
It was Lingxiu who was looking for him.
Li Dong hesitated for a moment, then jumped downstairs to meet her.
