At that moment, Ye Kai had already appeared in God's System Space, standing in the center of the plaza with a grim expression.
He stood there for two or three minutes, allowing the madness and anger within him to subside.
Taking a deep breath, his gaze regained its calmness. He then softly said, "From now on, I, Ye Kai, will no longer be the same guy who just eats and waits for death. I will not die; I will live well, definitely!"
He remained still, but his voice had become almost cold: "God, can you scan the situation outside?"
"Ding! Yes. As Lord God has entered System Space, no carbon-based lifeforms with a danger level above one have been detected within a ten-meter radius. Lord God can rest assured. However, there are combustible and explosive gas leaks with a certain threat level, as well as three triggering phosphorus fire devices. Please be cautious, Lord God."
Hmm?
Had that woman and the Bald Man already left?
What are those three triggering phosphorus fire devices?
Could this be the backup plan of those two ruthless Gender Bandits?
Things installed on the windows?
That is a possibility. However, given the current situation, those two would definitely not stay here any longer, especially since they could encounter 'The People's Good Servant' at any moment.
Suddenly, a glimmer of light flashed in Ye Kai's eyes. He knew that as long as he went outside, he would return to his original position. If he didn't act quickly, things might become even more troublesome later.
In that living room, there was still a large sum of money—at least five or six hundred thousand. It would be foolish not to take it.
Thinking of this, Ye Kai reappeared in the bedroom. Looking at the door completely shattered into wooden pieces and the wardrobe that looked like it had been hit by a car and turned into fragments, he couldn't help but feel alarmed again.
"This is just unscientific! That Bald Man and that Vixen made almost no sound whether walking or jumping..."
Looking at the wardrobe and the door, it was not difficult for Ye Kai to determine that this was definitely smashed by the Bald Man using brute force.
So the question arose.
How much strength would it take to shatter both the door and the wardrobe that was blocking the bedroom door into pieces?
Suddenly, Ye Kai's keen eyes spotted a glimmer of blue light in a broken piece of the wardrobe. This piqued his curiosity, and he quickly stored that piece into the System Space.
His eyes sparkled again as he noticed numerous bills scattered on the floor through the door, causing his heart to race once more.
There was no time to waste. Ye Kai swiftly darted through the door like a nimble cat, lightly jumping over Liuli Li and the man's corpse, gracefully leaping over the sofa, before stepping on a small shard of glass with a soft 'crunch'.
At that moment, Ye Kai realized that his agility had unknowingly surpassed that of an ordinary person.
However, this was not the time for deep contemplation. Looking at the scattered bills, Ye Kai felt a mix of excitement and regret; there simply wasn’t enough time. He had also caught a whiff of gas and saw a flicker of flames.
It seemed that those two ruthless Gender Bandits were preparing to blow this place up.
Quickly gathering seven or eight stacks of intact bills, Ye Kai dashed out. He didn’t want to stay any longer; if the gas line exploded, he would have no choice but to retreat into the System Space.
Outside, people were crowding together, and in the hallway, several tenants were desperately trying to escape. Ye Kai lowered his head and calmly ran with the crowd towards safety.
A few dozen meters away, Ye Kai stood at the entrance of the area, watching the building that was about to explode, his heart bleeding.
But there was nothing he could do; he dared not extinguish that flame. Who knew if such a major incident would provoke The People's Good Servant into tracing him through any clues left behind?
Grinding his teeth, he made a firm decision and quickly returned to his residence, leaving behind any lingering attachments.
After all, he had once been an ordinary citizen, but the leap from being a commoner to being recognized as the Supreme Deity by the System was truly immense, and it had happened in such a short time.
Well, no matter what excuse he found, he was simply afraid of dying.
But who isn’t afraid of death? It was like the scenario of fleeing after a car accident; although terrified and knowing that he could potentially save the person he hit, in a state of panic, he made the wrong choice.
Fortunately, there were no people left in the apartment building; everyone had gathered at the district entrance, shouting and making noise.
This did ease Ye Kai's mind a little.
As he walked home, he took one last look at his source of livelihood. From this moment on, he, Ye Kai, would no longer be an ordinary citizen; he aimed to become someone above others, a king who could make those who obstructed him vanish with a snap of his fingers.
Upon returning to his residence, Ye Kai began to reflect on his experiences. Piece by piece, drop by drop, he recalled everything to see if there were any oversights or traces left behind.
He was certain that those two Gender Bandits would not let things rest; they would definitely come after him again. But at least he needed a little time.
Was he really going to lose the small amount of fixed assets he had managed to snatch from his family of wolves?
And this three-bedroom apartment was certainly no longer safe.
It seemed imperative for him to find a secure and reliable place to hide for a while.
“Wait! No, no!” Ye Kai suddenly frowned. He realized that although he had just resolved to change his life and become someone powerful—someone who controlled countless lives and deaths—right now…
He couldn’t find a safe and reliable place. Even if he found a remote forest, without the conveniences of life, wouldn’t that be worse than death?
Inside the unit door of his residential area, a murder had occurred, and it was likely that an explosion had taken place as well. In such a situation, 'The People's Good Servant' would undoubtedly contact him immediately.
What would most people feel upon seeing their only source of livelihood destroyed, especially when it wasn't even a small amount?
Would they cry out in despair? Would they rage in anger? Would they be filled with fear and worry?
However, if he left at this moment, wouldn’t he become a suspect?
Even if 'The People's Good Servant' wasn’t entirely sure about the motive for the crime, the cash found in that rental unit, along with the white powder and the two bodies shot in the forehead, clearly indicated that this was a major case!
Well, if he fled, regardless of whether there was a motive or not, the most likely outcome would be that he would be wanted, or various 'public servants' would assist in capturing him!
“What the hell is going on here?!”
Ye Kai cursed under his breath and suddenly remembered something very important. He quickly spoke up: “God, how much time is left until energy replenishment?”
“Ding! Lord God, there are seventeen hours, thirty-eight minutes, and twenty-seven seconds remaining until energy replenishment.”
Feeling irritated, he stood up and walked around before speaking again: “God, does scanning a ten-meter radius centered on me consume energy?”
“Ding! Lord God, this function consumes energy from Lord God.”
“Consumes my energy?” Ye Kai's eyes widened.
“Ding! Supreme Deity…”
“Stop that ‘ding’ sound from now on.”
After Ye Kai impatiently shouted, he suddenly remembered that the Divine System he had obtained could not be measured by common sense. So he asked, "God, answer me, where does the consumed energy come from? Will it cause me any harm? And how can I replenish it?"
"Lord God, due to the missing components of the Divine System, it cannot effectively serve Lord God. Therefore, each time the scanning function is activated, it will consume energy converted from Lord God's stored fat or mental energy."
"Short-term activation of the scanning function will not have adverse effects on Lord God, but if it is continuously activated for more than three minutes, mild dizziness and symptoms such as nausea may occur."
"The ways for Lord God to replenish energy are: first, effective deep sleep for one hour. Second, a large amount of sugar and multifunctional protein."
Ye Kai understood this method of replenishing energy; the quirky god had explained it in great detail.
Now, with just a little over sixteen hours left, how should he obtain a large amount of energy?
Electric Energy? Charge it at home? No way; that would be reckless. If the Divine System's energy replenishment program component started absorbing Electric Energy, it would definitely be a massive amount.
Ye Kai subconsciously glanced at the Light Screen in front of him, about a meter wide. The lower right corner displayed the charging status of the energy replenishment program component, but he couldn't see it clearly…
He rubbed his eyes vigorously and began counting zeros: one, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand…
"Hey, God, tell me how much Electric Energy is needed to convert into the energy you require!" Ye Kai grinned.
After waiting for two seconds, the response came: "Calculation complete. Lord God, one standard unit of energy from the Divine System is approximately equal to the daily consumption of Electric Energy in Jing City where Lord God is currently located."
"What the hell!… How much?" Ye Kai was stunned.
"Lord God, one standard unit of energy from the Divine System is infinitely close to being equal to the daily consumption of Electric Energy in Jing City where Lord God is currently located."
Ye Kai completely lost it and began pacing back and forth in the living room in frustration.
Only after confirming that this was real did he finally light a cigarette to help himself digest the news.
What it meant was that one standard unit of energy from the System was roughly equivalent to the amount of Electric Energy consumed by Jing City One. So...
He painfully calculated that even a one-hundred-thousandth of that energy supply could not be satisfied by the 0 volts of electricity at home. Not to mention the limitations set by the household fuse; even the transformer in the area had an overload protection device.
Since home was not an option, he would have to go out and find it.
The places with the highest electricity consumption were typically large factories, construction sites, and those infuriating High-Voltage Transmission Towers.
Factories were indeed a good choice; they had high power and current limits.
But how could he sneak in? Was he really going to apply for a job as a factory worker, the Lord God? No, absolutely not...
So, was he supposed to sneak into a factory under the cover of night? Imagining that scenario filled him with a sense of helplessness! Even if he managed to slip in at midnight, what if he ran into security patrols? And if there were guard dogs involved, wouldn’t he have to pull out his gun?
No, no!
Then what about a construction site?
However, construction sites were filled with too many people. Although he could just grab a hard hat and lower his head to blend in with the migrant workers heading out for cigarettes, it still posed a risk.
Once work started at a construction site, the electricity consumption would be substantial—definitely a good place to go.
But because of the mixed crowd, even if he was careful, there was still a chance of being discovered. If he got caught, it would lead to a series of problems. That wouldn’t work either—no way.
So there was only one option left.
Then there was only the High-Voltage Transmission Tower left, but those things were usually found in riverbeds or on suburban hills.
At this time, it wasn't too late to go out, but the key issue was that a murder had occurred in his unit, and he was supposed to be running around?
Moreover, the most crucial problem was that he had always gone there to collect rent!
"God, how close do I need to be to a High-Voltage Transmission Tower to activate the energy replenishment program? Do I have to stand right there all the time?" Ye Kai rubbed his cheeks vigorously and spoke in a low voice.
"My Lord God, you only need to be within ten meters of a High-Voltage Transmission Tower to activate the energy replenishment program. You do not need to stand there constantly; just activate it once at the specific location marked by you, and the energy replenishment program will continue to operate at that marked location."
"Ah!"
Ye Kai rubbed his temples, finally hearing something that made him happy. Although time was running short, at least he still had some left.
So, let's go now.
As for the unit and all that, forget it; he wouldn't care anymore.
Life was the most important thing.
Without energy, he would be in danger.
