Originally under the influence of Constellation B, the population and number of monsters in Magic City were equal. Perhaps Constellation B has its own ideas; what it desires is a city where humans and various evolved species live together.
But setting aside whether this can be realized, later on—Constellation B shifted its attention to other cities.
This may be a maneuver by Constellation A, who might think that balance is crucial. Constellation A believes that the strong should govern the weak.
When Constellation B went to focus on other cities, Constellation A signaled those under its command to expand wildly.
Thus, the Great Kind Man began constant parasitism, causing more and more people to become the Good People.
Humans grew fewer… becoming a minority group.
And the emergence of the Good People Hall only made the human situation more dangerous. Reporting the vile people around you could earn you rewards, allowing you to attain materials and recognition in this society.
To avoid being reported, you must not be evil...
Either become a Good Person or forcibly start being good.
In the apocalypse, being kind, obedient, and docile is really not necessarily a good thing.
The Good People Hall took away that bloodthirsty part of the human soul.
This is the backdrop of the era.
Wen Xishu began using the method of elimination, eliminating constellations.
He finally thought of the answer: the one responsible for conquest and expansion is Leo.
The one responsible for stability might be Libra, but considering Libra seems to disagree with Leo...
It seems that each time a new force appears, he gains favor with Libra but lowers favor with Leo. Libra seems to be one that enjoys chaos, that likes to muddy the waters.
The two should naturally be opposed.
Thus Wen Xishu thought of Taurus.
He didn't know the style of this constellation, but there are only a few who can work with Leo after considering it.
But this isn't important.
After explaining the background of the city where Zhou Fei was located, Wen Xishu said:
"Regarding your past and the memories you believed in, there are significant discrepancies. Zhou Fei, you're not particularly smart... but your perception is strong; you can even say you're a natural at gathering information."
"In this monster-governed city, humans have the potential to become beings with certain qualifications. The ruler behind the scenes of the ci... not, the city hasn't killed everyone, hasn't chosen to make the entire Magic City full of monsters—
Perhaps they hope to cultivate some people with qualifications, and once their abilities manifest, then parasitize and claim them."
"As for you, Zhou Fei, the files show you're different from other kids since childhood. You could easily notice anomalies around you."
"But the starting point of all this was when you met a child, that child's shadow was very distorted, do you remember? You mentioned this to me."
Zhou Fei nodded, though his pace didn't slow down, always keeping pace with Wen Xishu, but at this moment, Zhou Fei's heart had already started to panic.
"That child was not a monster. That child is very very important, your uniqueness started because of that child."
"Since then, you could always find the oddities around you."
"Your parents actually always fed you various drugs, hoping to numb you, hoping you'd be an ordinary child, a bit ignorant, a bit kind, not too curious, just like all humble people, in that city full of Good People… become a weak, ignorant person."
At that time, the monsters' aim was precisely to make people weak and ignorant.
Wen Xishu even saw in Britney's files the reason she was selected.
To test humans' reactions by mocking a real person.
The file shows—ninety-four percent had mingled into the families of Good People, and when the Good People saw Britney looking embarrassed and starting to wail, the Good People laughed, so those who had mingled into the families of Good People also laughed.
Only six percent of families had some who, seeing the situation from Britney's perspective, secretly wiped their tears.
These individuals were all sent to the Good People Hall.
During the second test—ninety-nine point five percent began reacting like the Good People.
"Your parents also hoped you would be weak and ignorant, but you were a curious little baby, and you saw bizarre things. After that, you were closely watched."
"Zhou Fei, they are studying you, trying to find out what exactly you saw, who that child is."
Zhou Fei looked at Wen Xishu in astonishment.
Wen Xishu continued:
"Later, to be able to closely observe you, your parents were pulled into the Good People Hall, becoming Good People."
Zhou Fei twitched a bit.
This fact was too heavy for him.
"But at that time, you had already awakened some observational abilities, you quickly discovered your father's shedding."
"Your heart had begun to be wary."
"Under the influence of drugs, you couldn't distinguish reality from dreams, yet the vigilance remained in your heart, so the file said—"
"We must figure out, the human Zhou Fei, who exactly the child he saw was, whether the child with the bizarre shadow is the target the adult is seeking."
"Zhou Fei has already begun to be wary of his parents, and Zhou Fei's observational skills are far above other humans… We need a harsh living environment to disturb Zhou Fei."
"Simply put, Zhou Fei, you began to be suspicious of your parents, so your parents were transferred away. In your memory, they went abroad. But the fact is… they are dead."
