Capítulo 1925: Chapter 817: Our Great India Empire’s Sports Meet Was a Success! (3)

The starting gun fired, and the race began.

The first few laps were relatively normal, with the athletes maintaining their rhythm. But by the fifth lap, unexpected events began to unfold in an India-exclusive manner.

First, it was the smell.

A pungent, choking odor, like a mix of ammonia and decaying matter, suddenly surged from some vent or underground pipe in the stadium, permeating above the tracks. Several athletes were caught off guard, coughing violently, disrupting their pace.

“What the hell is that?!” a Kenyan runner shouted as he ran.

Next to him, an Indian local runner seemed prepared, pulling a small cloth bag from his shorts pocket and covering his mouth and nose, murmuring, “Never mind! It’s the nearby chemical plant… uh, no, it’s the sacred spice workshop working overtime! It’s invigorating!”

Invigorating? That smell could wake the dead!

Then came the auditory interference.

The stadium’s public broadcasting system suddenly started playing a loud mix of electronic music and traditional Indian religious music, supposedly to cheer the athletes. But the rhythm was chaotic, the volume fluctuated wildly, interspersed with piercing electric noise and an announcer passionately shouting in Hindi.

This wasn’t cheering; it was auditory warfare.

The athletes were so bothered by the noise that they couldn’t concentrate to control their pace.

But all of this was just a warm-up.

The real “Indian featured security” appeared grandly in the middle of the race.

When the leading pack reached the seventh lap bend, one of the stadium’s large gates suddenly swung open!

A herd… of creatures, surged in.

Not people.

Cows.

A large herd of cows.

About thirty in total, of various breeds, including white zebu (India’s Divine Bull), as well as ordinary yellow cows and buffalo. They wore garlands around their necks, with red dots on their foreheads, as if they were “dressed up.”

But in a race track, the appearance of a herd of cows isn’t “dressed up,” it’s a “grand disaster.”

The cows were clearly startled, and once they entered the track area, they looked around blankly, then… began to roam. Some wandered along the track, some directly crossed it, while others stopped to leisurely ruminate or solve excretion problems on the spot.

“Moo—”

The cattle calls, mixed with the noisy music from the broadcast, painted a surreal picture.

The leading athletes were astounded, forced to slow down urgently, dodging left and right amongst the cattle, as if playing a real-life “running with the bulls” game.

“What the hell?!”

An Ethiopian runner screamed, nearly colliding with a defecating white zebu.

Indian staff finally shouted through a loudspeaker, “Do not panic! Do not panic! This is part of the ‘Divine Bull Blessing Ceremony!’ They’ve been blessed by high monks; passing among athletes will bring good luck and strength! Athletes, please stay calm and coexist harmoniously with the Divine Bulls! This is also a reflection of sportsmanship!”

“Reflect your grandpa!” an enraged United Kingdom athlete cursed, having just stepped into a patched hole while dodging a cow, nearly twisting his ankle, “This is a track and field race! Not a cattle farm outing!”

The scene was completely chaotic. The athletes had to race while constantly being vigilant against being knocked over by cows, slipping on cow dung, or stepping into track cracks. Speed simply couldn’t be increased, and the race turned into an obstacle cross-country event, and one with dynamic obstacles.

On the stands, the few spectators watched with amusement. Many raised cameras to take pictures, bursting into laughter.

Meanwhile, in the control room of the stadium, Indian officials wore satisfied smiles.

This was precisely part of their “ultimate security plan”—introducing “Divine Bulls.” Their logic is very Indian: since there had been so many accidents, causing the athletes’ complaints, why not add some “religious and cultural elements” to ease the tense atmosphere. Divine Bulls are sacred in India; with them around, even if more minor issues arise, they can be attributed to “God’s will,” and athletes wouldn’t want to challenge God, right? Plus, the scene is unique enough, has enough buzz, and might even divert media attention from previous tragedies!

They even prepared a press release title: “Perfect Fusion of Sports and Faith: India’s Commonwealth Games Innovatively Introduces Divine Bull Blessing, Athletes Challenge Their Limits in a Sacred Atmosphere.”

All I can say is, this logic cannot be cleansed even by the Ganges River water.

The race continued arduously amidst a mixed environment of humans and cows, overwhelming odor, and ear-piercing noise.

Athletes’ performances were disastrous, their finishing times slower than in regular training by more than one level. Eventually,

a determined and lucky enough not to slip on cow dung Ugandan athlete crossed the finish line first, in near-collapse form, with mediocre results.

The first thing he did after crossing the line was not celebration, but rushing to the track edge to vomit severely—half from exhaustion, half from being overwhelmed by the smell.

Most of the other finishers collapsed on the ground, their expressions devoid of joy, filled with post-disaster exhaustion and anger.

The four countries’ team leaders looked on with livid faces by the sidelines. This was no longer a race; it was making a joke out of the athletes’ health and safety, a total insult.

“Withdraw!” the United Kingdom team leader gritted through clenched teeth, “Issue a joint statement now! We can’t stay in this hellhole for another second!”

Mexico City, main news center

Casare watched the “Divine Bull farce” broadcast from Delhi, laughing so hard he fell off his chair, clutching his belly in spasms.

“Oh my God… Divine Bull Blessing… Harmonious coexistence with athletes… hahahahaha! How did Ah San and his team come up with this? Do they think that turning the race into a circus will make everyone forget the river drowning people and the pits with nails?”
