"Yaaaaaaah!"
When the explosion appeared inside the hall, the entire cruise ship began to shake violently as well, causing the celebrities at the party to scream at the tops of their lungs and fall into complete chaos.
No, it was more than mere chaos. Amid their cries of panic, the celebrities ran around in all directions, completely losing their heads.
There was nothing to be done.
The explosion just now had come from above the venue—in other words, from the cruise ship's ceiling.
The ceiling suddenly burst apart, kicking up a shock wave while sending countless chunks of rubble raining down. The celebrities in the hall were struck one after another. Some had their heads smashed open, while others were hit in the back and left covered in blood.
Under such circumstances, the celebrities naturally began crying out in panic one after another, then fled in all directions.
"What...!?"
Everyone was stunned.
Yukina and Kousaka Sayaka almost reflexively raised the objects in their hands—one a guitar case, the other a music box—and assumed battle stances.
Terpsichore Gacan and Gila released their magical power at once, sweeping away all the rubble falling from above. They protected Vatra, as well as everyone else.
Meanwhile, Luo Zhen, Vatra, and La Folia remained calm. One after another, they raised their heads and looked toward the ceiling.
"An attack?"
La Folia described the situation with a murmur.
"Oh?"
Vatra narrowed his eyes. Instead of feeling angry, he looked intrigued.
Luo Zhen silently activated the power of the Heavenly Eye, spreading invisible waves outward and obtaining a complete picture of everything within several hundred meters.
Thus, Luo Zhen could clearly sense it.
He sensed a large number of enemies approaching.
However, they were not coming from the venue's entrance. They were coming from the blasted-open ceiling
