Dense applause sounded, enduring without end, rolling on without cease.
Amid thunderous clapping and cheers, every face that had been pale before flushed red with excitement, as though they were genuinely shocked and impressed by the astonishing performance of this drone.
Whether they were reporters in the open or representatives from various factions who had come disguised as merchants, all of them, beneath Ling Shuo's gaze, sincerely offered their praise for the arrival of this epoch-making product.
There was not even time to reply to the nonstop messages popping up on their phones or the flood of question marks racing across their screens.
There was no time.
Only after the venue had already weathered a tempestuous upheaval did those onlookers who had not come in person finally have time for confusion to emerge on their faces. They lowered their heads to read the emergency bulletins in their hands.
They were completely dumbfounded.
What did it mean that Ji Jue really was releasing a new product?
What did it mean that something seemed off about this launch event?
Wait, what did it mean that Ji Jue was fucking bombing the Iron Hook District? And what the fuck did it mean that Ji Jue had taken fucking missiles and blown the entire fucking Iron Hook District into ashes?!
Literally?
No, are you fucking speaking Federal language?
Fucking say something already!
Phone calls rang throughout the entire venue, rising and falling so loudly that even the dense applause could not drown them out. And in just five minutes, the destruction of the Iron Hook District had spread across the entire Endless Sea!
Before long, photos and video clips from the scene were sent in every direction through who knew how many open and covert channels, accompanied by an advertisement for a raven-shaped drone.
