Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 1624: Visitors from Beyond (11)

Swan Square is shaped like a giant pit, with the stage at the bottom and tiered seating all around.

The stars floating around are thought by everyone to be presented using some kind of technology.

After all, this is an underground city where buildings can be constructed upside-down, so having this kind of technology is not surprising.

Chuzheng and Brother Hui’s seats are in the fifth row, considered good viewing positions.

When they entered, many people were already there, fervently discussing today’s main star—Qing Dai.

"I really like her, she’s so beautiful."

"Her singing is so good too."

"I heard she started just singing in the streets at first, is that true?"

"It’s true, I’ve seen her, and I was attracted to her then. I didn’t expect her to have such a big concert this soon."

"I scrimped and saved for a month just to watch her concert."

"I can’t wait to see her..."

Qing Dai initially performed on street corners, her beauty and sweet voice quickly gaining her fans.

Then, people started inviting her to sing at events, and very soon Qing Dai became popular, amassing a large fanbase.

Many said that listening to her singing washed away their fatigue.

When feeling down, after hearing her songs, they’d immediately feel better, and so on.

Chuzheng didn’t know if Qing Dai’s singing was good or not, but Qing Dai definitely exploited their species’ traits.

Their species’ voices easily made people become addicted; they can mimic any sound and make it more pleasant.

Chuzheng could probably guess what Qing Dai planned to do.

Gather people here, then spread these ’parasites’ into their bodies.

This was much faster than conquering them individually.

What are these parasites?

They’re low-level creatures from their planet that, once parasitically hosted, quickly move to the brain’s neural network.

If they’re not activated, nothing would happen.

Once activated, the people being parasitized would act obediently.

The content of their assessment was that whoever conquered here first would be the winner.

If she could make everyone obey her, wouldn’t she win?

No wonder in the plot, the original protagonist was always found wherever she escaped.

Those people were already Qing Dai’s eyes and ears...

But Qing Dai’s success was only because this place had low biological power.

In other civilized planets within other galaxies, these parasites wouldn’t be very effective.

So sometimes luck is also important.

-

As more people entered, once almost everyone was there, the surroundings darkened, and the floating lights in the air converged towards the stage.

The lights paved a path on the ground, and a girl walked from the end as music softly began playing.

When she opened her mouth, it seemed everyone around held their breath, afraid their breathing might ruin her singing.

Qing Dai wore a white dress surrounded by starlight, and her singing was melodious and moving.

Her songs were harmless; they only sounded alluringly pleasant.

After Qing Dai finished her first song, the audience went crazy, shouting wildly.

The audience sitting near Chuzheng was also very excited, almost pulling Chuzheng to chant slogans with them.

After the vigorous opening, the middle songs were slower and soothing, as Qing Dai smartly chose.

By the end, there were two more high-energy songs.

These people regained their strength and screamed excitedly.

On stage, the girl in a starry dress danced elegantly with the song, and the stars in the air floated with her.

As she moved, the lights flew towards the audience.

They constantly formed different patterns, changed in front of the audience, and finally exploded with a ’boom,’ countless starlights falling slowly.

-

Qing Dai looked at the falling starlights, her smile growing even brighter, and her singing sweeter and more moving.

Yet at this moment, Qing Dai noticed those starlights suddenly rising into the air.

Qing Dai frowned, what’s going on?

She issued another command, and the rising starlights dropped down again.

But after a few seconds, those lights rose again.

The audience didn’t notice the anomaly and thought it was part of the performance.

Qing Dai’s face changed, she even sang a wrong line, and her rhythm was off.

They’re disobeying her orders...

These parasites don’t have a concept of master recognition; on their planet, anyone could drive them.

If two people issued orders simultaneously, they’d obey the stronger one.

On this planet, the only one who can match her strength is her sister...

Is she here?

Qing Dai’s gaze swept over the crowd, but there were too many excited spectators, and she couldn’t see anything.

At that moment, those starlights had already risen high in the air, forming the shape of an upright middle finger along with a message—"You fools."

Qing Dai: "..."

The music had already stopped.

Qing Dai stood in the middle of the stage, looking up at the pattern.

Without the guidance of singing, the audience on the tiered seating sobered up slightly.

Everyone knew the gesture was an insult; what’s its purpose standing here? And what’s the message mean!!!

Are they being insulted?

After displaying for a few seconds, the pattern and text instantly shrank, leaving only basketball-sized light.

Before Qing Dai could do anything, the light suddenly poured down, covering her face.

The light extinguished.

Qing Dai looked down, the ground was left with only fine powder.

"..."

The scene fell into a weird silence.

That scene just now, something definitely felt off.

Qing Dai’s eyes scanned the varied expression audience, wondering where was she... where was she...

Chuzheng caused the destruction and seized the moment as everyone stood up to signal Brother Hui to withdraw.

If not now, should she wait until her sister comes calling?

The move hasn’t had a result yet, I’m not stupid.

Just as Chuzheng and Brother Hui walked a few steps, a sudden scream came from the audience on the left, followed by a loud bang.

Something exploded.

Chuzheng looked over, the stage was filled with rolling smoke, and people were scrambling away from the audience there.

Someone jumped from the audience, golden hues flashed across Chuzheng’s view, rushing into the smoke.

Chuzheng felt the figure seemed familiar.

"Lou Xing, stop resisting, surrender now!"

The pursuers dressed in Guard Team uniforms quickly surrounded the stage and shouted loudly. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Chuzheng squinted her eyes, was the Good Person Card being hunted?

That’s too miserable, huh.

The smoke engulfed quickly, and Guard Team members were swallowed by it, Chuzheng heard fighting inside, and bullets occasionally shot out of the smoke, hitting the crowd.

Screams rose and fell, just like a relay race.

Frightened spectators dashed frantically up above.

"Miss Chuzheng, shouldn’t we leave?" Brother Hui, using his tall and mighty body, barely endured such impact.

In the chaos, Chuzheng calmly stood there: "Let’s see a bit more."

"..."

Brother Hui didn’t know what to look at, but since Miss Chuzheng said to look more, there must be a reason!!

Chuzheng: "..." No reason really, I just shallowly wanted to get a glimpse of the Good Person Card.

Little Fairy: I just shallowly want a monthly ticket, are you so unwilling to fulfill this simple wish of mine? Just pity your little pitiful one here.
