Africa, near Silver Chain Great Waterfall.
Silver Chain Great Waterfall was originally called Victoria Great Waterfall. It belonged to the territory of the Zimbabwe Kingdom, but after all of Africa was incorporated into the Yanhuang Empire, some residents of the empire began migrating there.
At the same time, large numbers of officials were assigned to the region, and the question of where to build a city for them to work and live in was put on the agenda.
After all, the original African buildings were truly dreadful, and their foreign styles made them completely unsuitable for the people of the Yanhuang Empire.
Thus, rebuilding the city and choosing a new site became imperative.
After several sites in Zimbabwe were inspected, the area near the original Victoria Great Waterfall was selected by the local official in charge at first sight, thanks to its beautiful scenery and abundant water resources.
Now, after several years, a vast and magnificent urban district had been built there.
That day, a figure suddenly descended from the sky above Feng Hong District in Silver Chain City.
It was Sky Scum Su Mali.
Looking at the cluster of buildings before him, all in the style of Huaxia, Su Mali surveyed them with interest.
When the people nearby saw Su Mali, so out of place among them, someone in the crowd immediately slipped away to report him by phone.
The next moment, before that person could hang up, a sharp pain shot through his body. Then his consciousness sank into darkness.
The people nearby saw what had happened and screamed in terror before scattering in every direction.
At the same time, they all called the police.
Watching the crowd flee, Su Mali's lips curled into a perverse smile. He didn't bother chasing them.
He caught the Dark Silver Flying Knife circling overhead and elegantly wiped the blood left on it.
"Looks like the Yanhuang Empire really doesn't welcome me. Heh."
Meanwhile.
At the Feng Hong District Law Enforcement Office, the dispatcher who took the report heard that a foreigner had fallen from the sky into the city. When she learned that he also had a pair of wings, her expression changed at once.
Before she could consider what to do, the caller suddenly fell silent. Then screams and the sounds of chaos came through the phone.
At that, she knew exactly what had happened.
Just then, the other dispatchers' phones began ringing one after another. Every call was a report of a foreigner killing people in Feng Hong District.
The matter was promptly reported to the higher-ups.
When Li Xiangyang, head of the Feng Hong District Law Enforcement Office, heard about it—especially that the killer was a foreign man with wings—his expression changed dramatically.
Before the war began, officials at every level had secretly received an order describing Sky Scum Su Mali's distinguishing features.
When the war began, Ye Chen had issued the order to prepare for Sky Scum Su Mali. It instructed officials nationwide not to alert any foreigner matching his description, but to report them discreetly to the Imperial Guard. If the person had already been alerted, they were to evacuate the people as quickly as possible and wait for reinforcements.
Now that Li Xiangyang knew Su Mali had appeared in his jurisdiction, a bitter feeling welled up inside him.
He took a deep breath to steady himself, then contacted the Imperial Guard officer responsible for Feng Hong District.
To be honest, unless absolutely necessary, Li Xiangyang hoped he would never have to get involved with that organization.
Ever since the Imperial Guard had been established, its members had either been on their way to arrest someone or were in the middle of making an arrest.
So if you had dealings with the Imperial Guard, it meant they had their eye on you.
After reporting the situation, Li Xiangyang took his service pistol from the desk drawer and rushed out of his office.
Fengyang District.
Law enforcement officers on patrol nearby hurried to the scene and saw Su Mali, standing in the street with an easygoing air and an air of languor about him.
On the wide street, Su Mali strolled along leisurely, a Dark Silver Flying Knife circling beside him.
When he sensed someone nearby, Su Mali turned his finger, and the knife instantly traced an arc through the air, piercing the person's chest.
Everywhere he went, corpses littered the ground, and the thick stench of blood slowly spread.
"Bastard! That animal—kill him!"
Seeing this, Su Yunfeng aimed his pistol at Su Mali.
The law enforcement officers around him aimed their guns at Su Mali as well and pulled the triggers.
"Bang! Bang!"
A rapid burst of gunfire rang out. Dense volleys of bullets flew toward him, but the officers saw sparks flash in the air as a flying knife easily sliced through every bullet headed his way.
The knife that had cut through the bullets then swept across their bodies in an instant.
Pain lanced through them, and their strength rapidly drained away. One after another, they collapsed to the ground like a stack of dominoes.
Su Yunfeng's body hit the ground with a heavy thud. He lay there helplessly, eyes wide as he stared at Su Mali in the distance.
It was as if he wanted to burn the man's image into his mind. At last, his eyes lost all their light.
Su Mali recalled the knife and looked at the dead. He yawned in boredom. "What a drag. They're too weak."
As Su Mali killed people out of boredom,
elsewhere,
in the Yanhuang Empire's capital, Xuanhuang City, Ye Chen was handling government affairs when Yuan Lan's report made him spring to his feet.
"You're saying that Su Mali has appeared?!"
"Your Majesty, according to the information from Africa, Su Mali suddenly descended from the sky into Feng Hong District, Silver Chain City, just moments ago.
"And he's currently slaughtering the empire's citizens indiscriminately."
Hearing this, Ye Chen was so furious he laughed. "That guy really is used to doing whatever he wants. He's using Dark Energy recklessly on Blue Star and slaughtering ordinary people. Does he really think no one can deal with him?"
After contacting A Zhui in space, Ye Chen sank his mind into the Civilization System.
"System, submit the Industrial Revolution task for evaluation."
"Host has submitted the Industrial Revolution task. The Civilization System is calculating the results. Please wait..."
"Host's task has been rated at 73 points. Basic task rewards—the First Generation Human King Body and 500,000 Civilization Points—have been issued."
"Host's task completion score exceeds the system's required standard by 13 points, meeting the requirements for a Desolate-level draw."
"Desolate-level draw issued. Would the host like to draw now?"
Seeing this, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel speechless. So the system's passing mark for this task had been 60 all along.
Looking at the draw prompt before him, Ye Chen clicked confirm. He had submitted the task to increase his strength, so naturally he wouldn't pass up any chance to improve it.
The next moment, Ye Chen's consciousness sank into a sea of stars. Countless stars stretched endlessly through the heavens, each one representing an item.
He had to choose one of them.
