[Blood Moon Calamity arrival countdown: 3 hours]
It's getting late.
On normal days, this would be the bustling stage of the night market, and it would be bustling with lights and feasting.
But there was no one on the street.
Doors and windows are closed.
A law enforcement patrol car passed by with a loudspeaker on it and kept repeating:
[All ordinary people are asked to close their doors and windows at home and do not go out at will]
[All ordinary people are asked to close their doors and windows at home and do not go out at will]
There are too many residents in Linhai City! Some important people have been placed in air-raid shelters, students are under centralized protection at school, and the rest can only stay at home.
Linhai City University.
Thousands of students were gathered in the huge indoor gymnasium.
Xia Wen and her best friend are also inside.
A law enforcer in the front was holding a loudspeaker and shouting, "If there are still volunteers who want to go to the battlefield, you can come to me and report. I hope everyone can contribute to defending their homeland!"
My best friend whispered, "Xiao Wen, shouldn't we really go to the front line?"
"Go to hell!"
Xia Wen rolled his eyes. "We are only level 50, is it our business to fight monsters? It is the business of those high-level experts!"
"But... I have a level 45 friend who also went... Isn't it good for us to hide here?"
"Haha, if you want to die, go ahead and I won't stop you."
Air raid shelter.
The people gathered here are either rich or noble.
Liu Xingchen is one of them, he is also a small boss after all.
But what was different from others was that he also secretly brought a few Transcendent bodyguards, saying they were his family members, and hid in together.
"Boss..."
A bodyguard scratched his head and said, "I see that many people have gone to the front line, but we are staying in the safest place. Isn't it bad?"
"I am the one who pays you wages. It is enough that you are responsible for protecting me. Are you looking for death?"
Liu Xingchen spat hard. "If you leave, who will protect me when the monster rushes in?"
"But..."
"But what the hell! I brought you here, and that's all I need to do is be grateful. Why are you rushing to die?"
Liu Xingchen looked to the side and saw that the middle-aged man was still on the phone with a gloomy look on his face.
The middle-aged man's name is Chen Huirong, the biological father of Chen Nian, but now Liu Xingchen is his new "son". They are a reorganized family after divorce.
"Dad, you still can't contact Chen Nian?"
"Yes, that little bastard has gone somewhere!"
"Hell, he might be protected at school, don't worry!"
Liu Xingchen actually hopes that Chen Nian will go to the front line, and it would be best if he died, so as not to make himself sick all the time like a cockroach.
On the other side of the air-raid shelter, Chen Nian's mother also tried to contact Chen Nian.
Although the parents each had a new family after their divorce, they still thought of their biological son at this time.
"Mom, is brother here too?"
The girl who is talking is called Ning Ziqing, she is seventeen years old, the daughter of a reorganized family, and can be regarded as the younger sister of Chen Nian.
"He... doesn't know, the phone didn't go through."
"Where is he? I've wanted to see him for a long time!"
"I don't know, I hope he's okay..."
An ordinary family.
Xiao Liu is a father and was also a game player in "Calamity".
However, he did not choose to become a volunteer and fight on the front line. Instead, he chose to stay at home, close the doors and windows, and hide with his wife and children.
"I'm hiding at home to protect my family... that's right!"
He kept comforting himself in this way.
But in fact, he understood that he was timid!
"Those people don't understand the horror of Blood Moon Calamity. I've experienced it before... ordinary people will most likely be used as cannon fodder."
"I don't want to die, what's wrong with me hiding at home?"
At this moment, scenes from the front line were being shown on TV. People were gearing up and preparing for battle. While reporters were reporting, they also did not forget to continue recruiting.
"Calamity is coming soon. I hope that all capable people can come forward! Together we can overcome this difficulty!"
My five-year-old son watched it, pointed at the TV and asked, "Dad, when will I be able to be like them? I also want to fight monsters!"
"... Don't make any noise."
Xiao Liu's heart was stabbed hard.
After listening to his son's words, he felt even more like a loser.
front line.
Qin Yu is also one of the volunteers.
Even though she is just a fragile girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, she is actually a powerhouse in her eighties, stronger than most people!
Of course, this also benefits from the help of Chen Nian and a few friends.
"Xiao Yu, we may not be able to take care of you later, you have to protect yourself."
Fatty Deng Rongrong said.
I couldn't help but add in my heart, if Chen Nian were here, there would be no need for us to take care of you...
"I know, I will be careful myself."
"Hey, I don't know whether I will die or live later!"
Deng Rongrong thought for a while, "Xiao Yu, how about I tell you a secret? In fact, Chen Nian... uh."
When I turned around, I saw that Qin Yu had already picked up the phone and walked away.
"I guess I called Chen Nian again..."
"I don't know where the elder brother has gone. Is he not at Linhai City?"
"Impossible, then where can he go? He can't leave us and run to other cities? Xiao Yu is still here!"
"Don't forget, there are many women who like big brother, and they are much better than Xiao Yu. For example, Dragon Country, the daughter of the great general Ye Hongling, and Zhao Family's little princess Zhao Yixue..."
"Uh, that's right! It's better not to tell Xiao Yu, so as not to hurt her."
[Blood Moon Calamity arrival countdown: 30 minutes]
At this moment, subtitle prompts appeared in front of all Transcendent viewers.
[Attention to all players, Gate of Calamity has been activated! Monsters are about to attack!]
At the same time, the drone patrolling the sky has detected the so-called "Gate of Calamity" and has transmitted the image back.
Those are teleportation arrays that look like chaotic whirlpools!
They are spread out on the plain one after another, and at a glance there are at least a thousand of them!
Like a sea of chaotic stars.
"All chaotic vortices are in the east direction of the city!"
"Send the order, all teams gather in the east of the city and prepare to fight!"
"Launch missiles and try to destroy the portal!" the general headquarters ordered.
Soon, the fighter jets deployed in the sky began to move.
Two long-range precision-guided missiles drew two gorgeous arcs in the night sky and exploded!
However, this gorgeous fireworks did not achieve any results.
"Report, the Chaos Vortex is intact! That thing seems to be indestructible..."
"Transcendent has been summoned for support, be sure to try by all means!"
Soon, many Transcendent ers Air Flight rose up and tried to destroy the Chaos Vortex. But none of them could succeed, so they had to give up in the end.
Finally, the countdown reaches zero!
In an instant, the blood moon rose in the sky, and Tiankong was dyed dark red.
At the same time, a bright red warning appeared in front of everyone.
[Blood Moon Calamity has arrived!]
[World Points Ranking Opens!]
PS: Let me explain the mechanism of "Mandate of Heaven". In fact, it is not that abnormal. After the effect of the last Mandate of Heaven is consumed, the next Mandate of Heaven can be drawn. For example, if the protagonist draws the effect of restoring injury, if he is not injured again, he cannot draw it. He must be injured.
