I awakened to be a menace at the start of the game, and my parents sent me to the cherry blossom vie

Chapter 104 Shifting the Blame East

Raccoon City, Fifth Avenue.

This place was once a world-class luxury shopping street, but now it has become a paradise for fungal monsters.

The shop window was broken, and expensive leather goods and jewelry were scattered all over the floor, but no one was buying them.

however,

In this apocalyptic scene, two women were strolling around the street, oblivious to everyone else.

"Guys! Watch closely!"

The girl, nicknamed "Big Sister," held up a phone stand in one hand and carried a Hermès Birkin bag in the other, showing it off to the camera.

And it's like being a live-streaming e-commerce host.

"This is Himalayan crocodile skin! Domestic boutiques would require hundreds of thousands of yuan in additional purchase fees, but now—it's free! Absolutely free!"

Inside the live stream, the chat was flooded with comments like a waterfall.

[Holy crap! Old woman, are you crazy? That's a zombie! There's a zombie behind you!]

[Is this the legendary zero-yuan purchase? Is this the air of freedom? I'm so envious!]

[Could you get me a Rolex? I'll pay for shipping!]

[Upstairs, postage? This looks like ghost money! I'll do a handstand and wash my hair if the streamer comes back alive!]

In the scene, a zombie covered in green fungus staggers over.

Its rotting face was almost pressed against the lens.

The viewers in the live stream were so frightened they almost threw their phones away.

however.

next second.

"Get out of the way! You're blocking the light!"

The girl slapped the zombie on the head with a look of disgust, and then casually hung the two LV shopping bags she was holding around the zombie's neck.

"Take it! You can't even be used as a pendant, what use are you?"

The fungal zombie, powerful enough to tear a special forces soldier apart, let out a low growl and stiffened for a moment.

then……

It obediently carried the shopping bag, following behind Dai Da Mei like a wronged little wife.

The entire room fell silent.

The live stream froze for a full three seconds.

【？？？？？】

[Am I seeing things? Zombies as laborers?]

Is this zombie an actor? It didn't bite after that slap?

[The person upstairs doesn't understand, this is "money power"! That old woman is awesome!]

As the live stream's popularity soared and the barrage of comments poured in, Dai Da Mei's smile almost overflowed the screen.

Sato Saori followed behind, clutching a pile of Chanel boxes in her arms, her whole body trembling.

It wasn't from being scared.

It was exciting.

"Dai-san...is this...is everything really alright?"

She watched as more and more zombies gathered around her. Although they didn't attack people, their appearance was truly unsightly.

"What's there to be afraid of!"

The naive girl waved her hand with an air of grandeur, pointing to a Cartier store in front of her.

"That bastard Lin Fan dumped us here, what's wrong with us charging some compensation for emotional distress?"

"Let's go! Let's empty that store! I've had my eye on that giant cheetah brooch for ages!"

The two moved about as if they were in an empty place.

The surrounding fungal zombies not only didn't attack, but because of the high-level calamity aura left by Lin Fan, they instinctively became their bodyguards.

Any non-humans who tried to approach them were kept at bay by the howling fungal zombies.

This scene was broadcast live around the world.

Chinese netizens are laughing hysterically.

The American public was moved to tears.

And at this very moment.

Santa Monica Beach, Los Angeles.

The situation here is a hundred times more "intense" than in Raccoon City.

Rumble—!

Lin Jianguo was engulfed in flames, and when he threw a punch, the air itself distorted due to the intense heat.

"You wretched creature! Surrender now!"

His roar was like thunder, shattering all the glass within a hundred meters radius.

opposite.

Lin Fan, covered in black scales, soared into the sky from the ruins, holding a broken half of the dock in his hand, which he hurled like a javelin.

"You old fool! You think I'll surrender? In your next life!"

boom!

The pier collided with the fiery fist and instantly turned to ashes.

The two collided in mid-air, and the resulting shockwave uprooted the palm trees lining the street.

The seaside apartments were mostly destroyed.

The entire battle scene is grand and full of special effects.

But in fact……

"Old Lin,"

Using the recoil from the collision, Lin Fan flew backward, simultaneously hooking a boulder with his toe and kicking it towards a distant lighthouse, transmitting his voice:

"I can't take it anymore, I'm starving."

"You know what, now that you mention it, I feel hungry too!"

Lin Jianguo glanced around, but then looked troubled.

"But, son, you have no idea, your father suffered a great loss here back then. I won't feel at ease until I reap some benefits today!"

"So, do we still need the aircraft carrier?"

Lin Fan rolled his eyes.

"What if you push someone too far and then try to renege on your debt?"

"So what if he refuses to pay? We'll just rob him!"

Although Lin Jianguo said that, his actions became slightly more restrained.

"But to be honest, I'm actually a bit hungry. How about we find somewhere to eat?"

"OK."

Lin Fan's eyes darted around, and his gaze fell on a Starbucks in the distance.

"Let's go eat there!"

I'll go first, you follow! Pretend you don't know me!

After saying that, Lin Fan turned around and ran towards the commercial street without hesitation.

"You wretched creature, where do you think you're going...?"

After Lin Fan had run a certain distance, Lin Jianguo shouted loudly in perfect unison and then chased after him.

And they didn't forget to launch an attack on a nearby office building as well.

"Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon... no, Blazing Flame Palm!"

boom!

The giant fiery hand struck the office building in an instant.

The raging flames instantly engulfed the entire building.

……

Washington, D.C., the Hexagon.

Inside the command center,

Everyone stared at the raging fire on the big screen, and at the half of the city that had been reduced to ruins.

This battle.

Most of Los Angeles is essentially destroyed.

The economic losses are incalculable.

"Mr. President..."

A general swallowed hard, breaking the silence. "The battle... seems to be over for now."

The president slumped in his chair, his eyes vacant.

ended?

Yes, it's over.

Los Angeles is almost over too.

"Have the loss statistics been released yet?" The president's voice was hoarse, as if he had aged ten years.

"Preliminary estimate..."

The secretary next to him was looking at the tablet computer, her hands trembling.

"The direct economic losses exceed $300 billion, not including subsequent reconstruction costs and the impact of the stock market crash..."

Three hundred billion.

The president clutched his heart.

This isn't hiring bodyguards, it's practically hiring a demolition crew!

And it's the kind of demolition team that demands money from you after demolishing the site!

"Smith!"

The president abruptly turned his head, looking at the Secretary of Defense in the corner, his eyes bloodshot.

"What about Raccoon City? How's that damn plan going?"

"If we can control those two women, we can force that black-scaled monster to sign a contract of servitude! We'll make him work for us for free for the rest of his life to pay off his debts!"

This was their last straw.

As long as we find Lin Fan's weakness, we can squeeze today's losses out of that monster in the future!

Smith shuddered when his name was called and quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Contacting! Contacting!"

He grabbed the secure phone and quickly dialed the number for the Raccoon City temporary command center.

The phone was answered after ringing twice.

"I am Smith!"

Smith roared into the microphone.

"Have the Chinese news anchor and the Japanese woman been caught yet? The President is waiting for news!"

On the other end of the phone.

The Raccoon City commander's voice trembled noticeably with panic.

"Minister... Minister..."

"I...I was just about to report to you that...the people we sent were killed."

"What?!" Smith's pupils contracted sharply. "What do you mean they were killed? They escaped?"

"No...it didn't run away."

"Yes, there was an unidentified force involved. They killed our operations team."

The commander gritted his teeth.

"Our men were ambushed when they stormed the camp! The entire squad was wiped out!"

"The opponent is an Awakened One! Extremely powerful!"

"Based on the traces left at the scene and eyewitness reports from survivors, they were two awakened individuals, a man and a woman!"

"The woman is white and possesses telekinetic abilities! The man is black and a power-type awakened being!"

"They killed our men, and then... took the two women!"

boom!

This news came like a bolt from the blue, completely stunning Smith.

White woman? Black man?

Awakened One?

Did they also take those two women with them?

What does this tell us?

This shows that it wasn't just the United States that discovered the value of those two women; other forces did as well!

And the other side acted even faster than them!

"Damn it! Fuck!"

Smith slammed the phone down on the table in a fit of anger.

"Who is it?! Which organization dares to steal our goods on American soil?!"

Inside the command center, everyone could hear the conversation clearly.

The president stood up abruptly, his face ashen.

"Investigate! Investigate for me!"

"Whether it's S.H.I.E.L.D., Hydra, or whatever other random organization, find these two people no matter what!"

"Those two women are key to controlling that black-scaled monster! They absolutely cannot fall into the wrong hands!"

Smith took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"Mr. President, if they are after those two women, it means they also want to control that black-scaled monster."

"This means we have one more competitor."

"and……"

Smith's eyes were cold.

"If that black-scaled monster found out his 'friend' had been captured, what do you think he would do?"

The president paused for a moment, then his eyes lit up.

"Shifting the blame eastward?"

"That's right!"

Smith's lips curled into a venomous smile.

"Since the person isn't in our hands, let's pass this message on to that monster!"

"Tell him that a group of mysterious Awakened Ones have kidnapped his friend!"

"Let him chase after them! Let him kill them!"

"We just need to follow him and reap the benefits!"
