Strange enemies, old-fashioned but brand-new luxury cars, mysterious people who arrived immediately on the scene, and their uniform black suits and ties which screamed their identity . And, of course, that impressive stick they pulled out .
Sheyan could vividly remember that this thing was described as "a gift from some friends from out of town" in the original version . Its importance was obvious - it could wipe ten to fifteen minutes of memory .
More importantly, it seemed that this object had a strong temporary hypnotic effect after the memory wipe . The victims would be convinced of any information they were fed during this time! It was a great weapon to fool the public!
"This . . . turned out to be the world of the Men in Black!" Sheyan sighed with a bit of regret . For him, this world was not particularly bad, but it was definitely not a big advantage either .
The man in black continued in a serious demeanor .
"Trust me, I'm explaining something really important to you, so you must give me some time to organize my words so that your poor brain can accept my statement more easily . . . . Come, everyone, look here, *click*!"
A mild flash came and gone in a blink . The Man in Black did not pay much attention to Sheyan because he believed the words of the fat black dude and deemed Sheyan to be a harmless target . Sheyan had immediately avoided the light, but because he wasn't wearing sunglasses, he could feel an indescribable strange feeling emerging in him .
It felt like there was an invisible stick stirring a certain area in his brain . The information inside the area was smashed, thrown into an invisible blender, and was finally gulped down by an invisible mouth .
Although Sheyan was not directly exposed to the light, and as a contestant, he was fiercely resisting with his willpower, he soon realized that his last ten minutes of memory had become fuzzy, as if it was covered in a layer of time dust . The memory of the last ten minutes was forcibly fermented for decades . Sheyan could only recall that he seemed to have encountered some disgusting insects, and that the person in front of him may be a Man in Black . . . .
The Man in Black started brainwashing the crowd who all had on dull expressions .
"Gentlemen, I know it's hard being a municipal worker . In the last few days, you were merely befuddled by some chemical reaction from the damn man-made waste . There's nothing to fear with cockroaches and bugs . So, after you take these two hundred dollars here, you will continue to work happily, and you will think back of today's event as just a small incident . "
After the Man in Black was done with his speech, the municipal worker slowly recovered from their stiff expressions and stepped up one by one to receive the money . Then, they sighed as if they just woke up from a dream, slapped each other's shoulders and made plans for a drink together after work .
The black guy pointed at Sheyan and said .
"Steven seemed to have met with some troubles earlier . Let's send him home first . "
The lanky man walked over, pulled Sheyan up, then whispered to him .
"Alright, cut the act, Steven . We've got more compensation than we expected . Your heavy fall was totally worth it . Now tell me, do you want to rest, or do you want some weed, some drink, and a woman? It's on Martin and me . "
Sheyan pretended to be in a daze and mumbled something in reply . The two Men in Black had already gotten back into their car and drove away so they didn't realize that for a contestant like Sheyan, even if he did not deliberately resist, the hypnotic effect would still be completely ineffective on him .
At the moment, the nightmare imprint sent its notifications .

Sheyan instantly got nervous . If there just happened to be several participants in his vicinity, then it would be really bad . It would totally ruin his original plan . After all, he couldn't match up against these vicious contestants as a mere reserve-duty Growth-Hunter even if he was willing to .
The Blood Sense was soon initiated . Sheyan's concerns did not come into existence . The participants were quite evenly distributed in all corners of New York, so they were quite far apart from each other and will not come into contact straightaway .
It seemed that the realm was trying to create a fair environment as best they could by giving everyone the same opportunity and time to adapt to the world . For Sheyan, he must seize this opportunity to break through to a Growth-Hunter first!
He inquired about his breakthrough-related information, but all he got was an address:
Hudson River Estuary, Jersey City, New Jersey
There was nothing else after that .
To be honest, Sheyan was not familiar with New York . Fortunately, he knew now that his identity should be a sewer worker named Steven, and he had two friends nearby . While they were driving towards a bar they usually frequent, Sheyan deliberately held his forehead and moaned .
"Damn, I feel like my brain's so messed up it's turning into condensed milk . Right, do you guys know anything special about the Hudson River Estuary in Jersey?"
The black dude, Martin, looked at Sheyan in pity .
"Steven, did you knock yourself silly when you fell? Hudson River Estuary - that's where the Statue of Liberty is . "
"The Statue of Liberty?" Sheyan came to a sudden realization! He then fell into a deep thought . What purpose did the realm have for arranging his breakthrough at that place?
With this question in mind, Sheyan was carried by a group of friends into a small bar that looked very cheap . He continued his act of feeling dizzy and leaned back on the sofa to carefully ponder the series of problems he faced . First of all, Sheyan must consider what connection his breakthrough had with the Statue of Liberty . But no matter how he racked his brain, he could find no common points between them at all!
Next, Sheyan thought about which period in the Man in Black movie he was in right now . Was it before or after the appearance of the protagonist J, played by Will Smith? J was obviously a relatively weak protagonist in terms of direct combat power . If possible, Sheyan intended to take a drop of his blood to unseal another mission item of his .
Sheyan was thinking about these things so his eyes were naturally unfocused . He was just looking at a general direction in a daze . The others around him simply thought that it was normal behaviour for someone who knocked his head in a fall . At that moment, the bartender in Sheyan's vision accidentally cut his hand while cutting a lemon . The cut was really deep; half his finger was disconnected . However, he treated it as if it was nothing and simply threw the severed finger into a wastepaper basket .
These all looked very normal but it was not normal at all! Suffering such a severe injury, the bartender did not even spill a drop of blood! As soon as he looked up and saw Sheyan staring at him, his face immediately turned savage and murderous!
That's right, his intent was quite obvious . The guy wanted to kill Sheyan to silence him! The atmosphere suddenly became tense . Neon lights flashed, shining onto the faces of the drunken dreamers in the bar . Sheyan was also a little drunk by now . As he stared vacantly at the men and women moving and talking on the dance floor, he suddenly felt really frustrated . He threw away the beer in his hand and sneered at the bartender while beckoning at him with his finger .
