Lend Me Your Strength
In fact, anyone with a sound mind would cautiously keep their distance in such a situation, even without being specifically warned.
Everyone instinctively distanced themselves from the two soldiers at the door, and within a few breaths, a large open space was cleared around them.
In this situation, Lu Bai's initiative to approach seemed particularly abrupt.
"Master Lu, are you confident?" Minister Zhang asked.
Upon hearing this, Lu Bai waved his hand without turning his head.
"More or less."
Although they felt it was impossible for Lu Bai to deal with dozens of monsters in one go, the people present did not think it would be too difficult to deal with two soldiers affected by the monsters.
However, events still unfolded in ways they hadn't anticipated.
Lu Bai had no intention of taking any risks. After approaching the two soldiers who were under the strange influence, he decisively activated [Flash Time].
Within the 0.5 seconds that time stood still, he skillfully affixed two Yellow Talisman to the foreheads of the two soldiers, chanted a calming incantation, and immobilized them in place.
This scene seemed so incredible to the others in the conference room that they didn't even know what he had done.
"It's over?" Director Lu Bai Service and Research Guarantee Bureau looked at the two soldiers with Yellow Talisman stuck to their foreheads, completely bewildered.
The [Flash Time] effect, which is like skipping a period of time, gives the user no chance to react.
"Master Lu's skill is truly beyond human capabilities."
Minister Zhang was deeply moved.
Despite his lament, he didn't forget to persuade Lu Bai to evacuate with them.
"The electronic devices haven't completely malfunctioned, have they?"
Minister Zhang was just about to speak, but before he could utter a sound, he was interrupted by Lu Bai, who turned around.
Upon hearing this question, the secretary behind Minister Zhang instinctively replied, "Yes... yes, although the specific reason hasn't been clarified yet, some electronic devices have indeed continued to function normally after these strange phenomena appeared at the containment center."
Minister Zhang was standing in front of the large screen in the conference room, not staring blankly at the black screen.
It was precisely because the communication signals were not blocked that the Temporary command center was able to understand the situation in various parts of the containment center.
Lu Bai nodded in satisfaction and added, "Then let's restart the live stream."
"Master Lu ..." the portly director of the Lu Bai Service and Research Guarantee Bureau called out, wanting to persuade Lu Bai not to act rashly.
"Since you've made up your mind, let's start the live stream."
Minister Zhang spoke slowly, but with a decisive force.
He walked to Lu Bai's side and put his hand on Lu Bai's shoulder. "Do whatever you want, I'll have people fully cooperate with you."
Minister Zhang did not actually approve of Lu Bai's approach; his tone was even full of pessimism and heaviness.
In his view, Lu Bai's refusal to evacuate meant he was prepared to sacrifice himself.
He knew he couldn't change Lu Bai's mind, so he felt that all he could do was accompany Lu Bai on this journey.
Having made up his mind, Minister Zhang relaxed and turned his gaze to the others in the conference room, laughing heartily, "Those under forty years old, continue to evacuate. Don't waste the rescue helicopter that was specially arranged."
He paused, then said, "As for the rest of us old brothers, let's stay and teach these monsters a lesson. We humans can't just take the beating without fighting back, can we?"
The portly bureau chief scratched his head and sighed helplessly.
"Fine, fine, let's do it then. The only consequence is death."
There's not much to say; there's only one rescue helicopter, and most of the staff aren't even qualified to ride on it.
Anyway, all the bosses stayed with them, so there's nothing to criticize.
After a brief mobilization, the entire Conference Hall was filled with an air of triumph despite being on the verge of defeat.
The military's specialized team might not be able to deal with the supernatural, but using them to set up live streaming lines would be a waste of their talent.
Everyone immediately got to work and got busy.
Soon, the preliminary preparations for the live broadcast were completed, with three staff members carrying cameras behind Lu Bai to act as the filming crew.
"Signal Tower calling Reception Center Live Broadcast Room One"
"Live broadcast room number one at the shelter is available. Please speak at the signal tower."
"Based on the signal strength, the No. 1 live broadcast room of the shelter has switched to channel 7. The signal line is now open and live broadcast can begin at any time."
"Live broadcast from the shelter center has been completed."
Captain Mao released the intercom button, put down the satellite phone, looked up at Minister Zhang, exchanged a glance with Lu Bai, and nodded. "We can begin."
This live stream was broadcast to the general public, and the bizarre attack on the shelter had already become the hottest news at the moment.
So the moment the live stream started, countless netizens flocked to it.
"How is it now?"
"What happened? I'm so worried!"
"Didn't they say that hundreds of strange creatures had appeared at the containment center?"
"Bullshit! Don't spread rumors if you don't know the facts. Where did these hundreds of monsters come from?"
"I can see it now, it's the Guardian God!"
"Please help me! I'm inside tent 1743 in Zone B of the containment center, and the Slit-mouthed Woman is right outside the tent..."
There's no need to elaborate on viewership figures; in short, even with the signal lines widened in advance, the live stream still experienced noticeable buffering.
There were just too many questions in the comments, and Lu Bai was too lazy to reply to them all.
After all, he started the live stream simply to make it easier to gather the Spirit Bomb.
After confirming that the live stream had started, Lu Bai waved to the three crew members, signaling them to follow.
Captain Mao, following behind Lu Bai, spoke up at the opportune moment to explain the situation, "As of now, the containment center has received twenty-three reports of strange occurrences, nineteen of which have been confirmed. The strange occurrence closest to the temporary command center is in Area A..."
"I've already seen it."
Lu Bai said succinctly.
Thanks to its bizarre size, it can be seen through the corridor windows as soon as you step out of the conference room.
Sequence 61--High-ranking official's appearance.
This bizarre creature had a huge face, wore an enormous official hat, and was visibly top-heavy, moving like a drunkard swaying unsteadily.
"Then you can start."
Lu Bai strode out of the Temporary command center building and onto the open ground in front of it. He said to the camera, "If you trust me, lend me your power."
Having said that, he raised his arms high.
"Spirit Bomb"
It must be said that he actually had no real understanding of his standing in the eyes of the people.
Amidst the eerie threats and the official marketing campaign, the vast majority of people genuinely regarded him as Guardian God.
So when he used the [Spirit Bomb] ability.
In the darkness of the containment center, a sudden, striking light appeared—a blue-white sun.
