Chapter 5 – He can deprive pollutants of their ability

Read in 11.33 mintues

Shen Wang needs pollutants.

This is not a joke, but a physiological necessity.

He is a patient with congenital genetic disease. During the onset period, he will be extremely hungry and thirsty, and his aggression will increase. The hospital has treated him for ten years and still didn’t not know how he can recover from this state. Most of the time, he can only be locked up in an isolation room.

But Shen Wang knows that after observing him for more than ten years, the hospital has summarized a rule, that is, when he is sick, he is very likely to attract pollutants and distorted people to approach.

That year, Shen Wang happened to be sick when the high-level pollutant attacked the hospital. He was locked in a sealed isolation room waiting for the onset period to pass, but this high-level pollutant tore through these blockades and appeared in front of Shen Wang.

A normal person would think that he must be in danger, but the fact is just the opposite.

The extremely aggressive Shen Wang tore apart the intruding high-level pollutant. His hungry body was excited because of the death of the pollutant, and quickly devoured the edible part of the pollutant.

Yes, he ate the pollutant, and at the same time, his hunger and thirst were relieved, his body returned to normal, and his aggression was no longer so strong.

It was at that moment that Shen Wang finally understood why he would attract pollutants and deformed people when he was ill, because he was like the Venus flytrap of the old times, emitting a sweet smell to lure prey to come, and he needed these prey to maintain his body normal.

This is the only way to treat his genetic disease.

After learning about this situation, Shen Wang immediately decided to leave, because this was obviously wrong. No normal human can eat pollutants, right?

He has a casual personality and unrestrained means. He is not afraid of death or trouble, but he is not stupid. He does not want to be caught and studied by the Academy of Sciences.

It is better to let this identity perish with the hospital.

In these three years, Shen Wang has traveled to many places. Outside the high walls of human beings is the reality of this world. Pollution sources and pollutants emerge in an endless stream. 

The Six Major Polluted Areas are in different directions. Shen Wang has been to two of them.

He has never been polluted because of stepping into a polluted area, and he has never had any symptoms of mental pollution.

He has also eaten a lot of pollutants. These three years have been relatively smooth relying on his periods of illness.

Just a few days ago, he got sick again, and the Class B pollutant [Plum Rain] was attracted by him and captured him in a cage. Shen Wang killed it and devoured it, but at the last moment he accidentally failed to hide his whereabouts and was discovered by the dispatch team that came to deal with [Plum Rain]. So Shen Wang took advantage of the situation and returned to the high wall of humans.

Life outside the high wall is not good. He is already strong enough to survive in the wilderness for three years. As a human, he certainly prefers places where humans are gathered, at least there is a bed, transportation and hot water.

However, his illness period has not been cured so he still has to find time to hunt some pollutants as snacks.

Although the Class D pollutant is not strong enough, who let it go directly into his hands?

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

In the evening, the sunset fell high on the wall of the high-rise building, revealing a bright yellow light in the dim atmosphere around.

The man lowered his head, his hands and feet trembling with fear. He wrapped himself in the quilt and moved step by step on the rooftop. The dusk sky seemed like his mental state, just the afterglow of the end of the road, and then it was the dark darkness.

He finally moved to the edge of the rooftop, his eyes desperate.

“I can’t stand it anymore.” He said: “Don’t follow me anymore.”

“… I want, I want to get rid of you.”

“I’m really scared!”

The man muttered to himself, despair rolling in his eyes. He was panicked and pitiful, and was forced into a desperate situation within a few days.

Most people who are mentally polluted will be like this, trapped in negative emotions that do not belong to them, dominated by negative emotions, until they have a mental breakdown and die. This is also the reason why humans regard pollutants as a flood and beasts. The survival rate of ordinary humans who are mentally polluted is even less than 10%.

The man stepped on the edge of the rooftop and was about to jump.

At this thrilling moment, in the dark and gloomy corner, a clown wearing a red hood and a weird smile painted with red paint on the corners of his mouth walked out happily, with a bunch of red balloons tied to his wrists.

It grinned, and its eyes covered with white paint were full of solidified fear, just like the man wandering upstairs waiting to commit suicide; the lower half of its face was smiling triumphantly, as if it was complacent about catching another prey.

This completely different expression on the upper and lower halves of the face made it look extremely contradictory and terrifying.

The clown let go of his hand, and the red balloon floated up in the dim night. The smile on the clown’s face became bigger. It was looking forward to the moment when the balloon floated to the rooftop, and the man upstairs fell down together.

It seemed like a two-way rush, the same red up and down.

The wind pushed the balloons to the rooftop, and they did not continue to go up with the wind, but wandered around the man, and the man let out a shrill scream of fear.

The clown downstairs looked more and more frightened, and the corners of his mouth were smiling more and more ferociously, waiting for the prey to get into his palm.

But at that moment, a hand grabbed the clown’s wrist.

The clown’s smile froze.

“Long time no see.” A voice sounded from behind him.

Shen Wang appeared beside him as he did this morning, his dark eyes were like a dark abyss, he had a smile on his mouth, and the beauty mole at the corner of his eye looked particularly beautiful. His smile alone was enough to make people drown in it, it was a strange and magical attraction.

He said: “It seems that we shouldn’t say long time no see, after all, we just met this morning.”

The irrational low-level pollutant felt weird, and it began to panic, so the corners of the clown’s mouth tore behind his ears, and white lines emerged from his cracked wounds. The red balloons that floated out were pulled back by these white silk threads, and dozens of red balloons floated around the clown.

It decided to attack the man who brought him fear.

“Woo, woo.1

“Mom, I’m so scared, it’s right here.”

“Don’t follow me anymore!”

“There are monsters everywhere, blood everywhere! Someone come and save me!”

The balloons changed the moment they returned to the clown. They turned into bloody heads floating in the air pulled by a line. There were men, women, old and young heads. Each head was so terrified. They were crying blood and screaming.

Shen Wang counted the number of balloons curiously. There were thirty, which was exactly the number of dead victims.

The clown’s body stretched out and gradually twisted to a degree that humans could not understand. The twisted clown pointed at Shen Wang, and the floating heads above his head immediately flew towards Shen Wang with solidified fear. They opened their mouths to Shen Wang, and each mouth was filled with sharp fangs.

This horrific scene that was enough to give a normal person a nightmare did not make Shen Wang frown. The quiet man looked at the flying head with disdain, as if he was looking at garbage.

“I told you a long time ago.”

Shen Wang said: “I hate balloons mixed with human blood.”

After the voice fell, his pupils were like clear water with red ink stains, blending with the clear water little by little and turning red. Thorns extended from his cuffs, as if they were bone spurs growing from his body. Vines were wrapped around his waist, and one quietly drilled into his hair and bloomed a bright red flower.

His face changed as the thorns grew, and appeared to look more like a high-level pollutant than a human.

If there were staff from the Pollution Control Center here with testing equipment, they would be surprised to find that Shen Wang’s pollution level was rising at a very fast rate, and soon it would rise to 91%, but it would eventually stop at this number.

This is a high pollution value that is enough to be locked up to death in Area S!

During the three years outside the high wall, Shen Wang killed many pollutants, among which there was only one Class A pollutant: A013 [Blood Thorn]2.

Killing it was not an easy task. At that time, it was seriously injured and could only exert half of its strength. Even so, Shen Wang almost turned over and became its nutrient.

But after killing and devouring it, Shen Wang unexpectedly found that he could use some of the abilities of the blood thorn, and even his appearance would change accordingly, and his body was infinitely close to that of pollutants.

After that, he did not get sick for three consecutive months for the first time, and he could use his innate ability for the first time, although this should have been the [Pollution Talent] of the pollutant.

He realized that he could deprive the pollutant of their talent, but only of Class A pollutants and above. The higher the level, the easier it was to alleviate the onset time of his genetic disease, but it was difficult for him to kill Class A pollution alone.

This was also the biggest reason why he was willing to return to the human city.

Pollutants fight alone, without reason and will not unite. Even if they are strong, they cannot resist thousands of troops.

Humans are those thousands of troops.

Infiltrate the Pollution Control Center, join the dispatch team, eliminate high-level pollutants… and then, pick up the spoils!

This is the plan Shen Wang made instantly when he was accidentally discovered.

And now, it’s just a small D-level pollutant.

Shen Wang raised his mouth slightly and smiled at the clown.

“Are you ready to compensate me?”

The thorns pierced the first balloon head that rushed over. The head screamed miserably and exploded into a bloody mass in an instant. More heads came, but they couldn’t break through the layers of thorns. The clown opened his mouth, and the cracked corners of his mouth could no longer smile.

Its balloon head was extremely tough, even bullets couldn’t break it, but it had no resistance in front of Shen Wang’s thorns, and it broke with just a slight poke.

After losing half of the balloons, the clown finally realized that he had provoked someone he shouldn’t have provoked.

It turned around and wanted to escape, but there were more thorns behind it. The flowers on the thorns seemed to be full of blood, and they were extremely bright red.

Shen Wang’s red pupils reflected the clown, and he said, “Where do you want to go?”

With a puff.

Countless thorns came out of the clown’s body. The clown suddenly opened his eyes wide. He wanted to move but found that the thorns growing in his body had pierced his legs and rooted in the ground. He was like a vampire that devoured blood. Wherever the blood flowed, thorns grew there, until even the tips of the thorns were bright red.

The clown made a miserable sound. It was a pollutant. It had no reason or thinking, but it had instinctive emotions.

It was afraid, like a lone lamb under the siege of wolves.

All the balloons were punctured, and a pool of red fell to the ground. The thorns covered the clown’s body until there was no movement inside and finally stopped growing.

Finally, the thorns were taken back into Shen Wang’s body little by little. They retracted into the cuffs and slowly drilled back into the collar, completely disappearing.

Shen Wang covered his mouth with one hand, looking weak and harmless.

The man, who looked like he would not give off any threat, sighed, “It tastes so bad!”

“It’s like chewing rubber…”

Shen Wang looked up at the sky. It was completely dark. The street lights outside were on, but this was an abandoned unfinished building, and he could only see the dark windows.

He put his hand on his forehead, like a child looking into the distance.

Of course, he was not looking at the sky, but at the rooftop, which was so dark that it was almost invisible.

Shen Wang smiled.

“Now I promise that nothing will chase you anymore.”

“Of course, if you still feel that someone is following you, it’s not my problem.”

“After all, I’m not a psychiatrist.”
