"Whoosh--"
The long sword slashed down.
After killing the second Calamity Beast along the way, Shen Heng finally arrived at his destination.
Linhai City Public Security Comprehensive Services Park!
Shen Heng ran straight towards Building No. 7.
When he arrived at the entrance of Building No. 7, Fan Hong was already waiting at the door.
"The communications center is on the fifth floor; the city-wide announcements are also broadcast from there," Fan Hong greeted him.
"Can we move to the top floor?" Shen Heng asked.
"Sure, what's wrong?" Fan Hong followed beside Shen Heng, leading the way by a half-step.
"Then let's move to the top floor and put a map next to it. There are some places I might not be able to name accurately, so I'll need to look at the directions and the map to make a judgment," Shen Heng said.
"Okay, I understand!"
Fan Hong responded and then picked up the walkie-talkie clipped to his shoulder and began to speak.
"The communications center immediately moved the equipment used for citywide broadcasts to the rooftop to ensure real-time broadcasts could be made from there."
"In addition, the top floor needs to be immediately updated with the latest detailed map of the city, including labels for all newly built blocks and high-rise buildings."
The two were the first to reach the top floor.
While waiting, Shen Heng turned his head and looked around.
The morning mist enveloped the entire Linhai, making it difficult to see clearly even a few hundred meters away. Only the faint outlines of tall buildings could be seen in the sea of mist.
Shen Heng closed his eyes, listening to the sounds around him and analyzing the noises coming from his surroundings.
The surrounding environment began to rapidly take shape around him.
Grassland, streets, buildings, mouse shadows...
Within two minutes, Fan Hong walked over to Shen Heng and whispered a reminder.
"The equipment has been moved in!"
Shen Heng opened his eyes, turned his head and looked around, then quickly walked to a table placed to the side.
He bent down, adjusted the microphone, and then spoke.
"Next, we will provide information on the discovered Calamity Beast. All members, please pay attention and assess your actions accordingly."
"About 200 meters west of the municipal building, there is a Tier 1..."
In the dimly lit room.
The family of three huddled together in the corner of the living room.
The father gripped a fire axe tightly in his hand, while the mother covered the child's ears.
But the child surrounded by them was still terrified, his face pale and his body trembling uncontrollably.
The surroundings were dark and deathly silent...
Suddenly, the emergency loudspeaker in the neighborhood blared, a clear voice breaking the silence.
"Next, we will report on the discovered Calamity Beast. All members, please be on high alert..."
"West of the Municipal Building..."
The man paused for a moment, then sat there listening.
As one piece of news after another was reported, he seemed to realize something.
The wife, huddled to the side, also realized something was amiss.
"Is... is it a broadcast? An official broadcast?" The woman's voice was choked with sobs and a glimmer of hope.
"Hmm, it seems to be saying... there are some monsters somewhere, some monsters somewhere..." the man said uncertainly.
Suddenly, the words " Guangming Primary School in the Old Town" came over the loudspeaker.
The man's body jolted, and he abruptly stood up, moved closer to the window, carefully lifted a corner of the curtain, and looked outside.
Thick fog blanketed the area, obscuring everything.
He lowered the curtains and then carefully walked back.
"How is it?" the woman asked worriedly.
"The fog is too thick, you can't see anything." The man shook his head, then offered words of comfort:
"Don't worry, this is the government issuing a situation report, telling us where the dangers are!"
"Although we still don't know the specifics, it's better than not knowing anything at all and just waiting here."
The woman nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said:
Will we be in trouble?
The man paused for a moment upon hearing this, then gripped the axe in his hand tightly.
Don't worry, we'll be fine!
"About one kilometer northwest of the clock tower, a Late Tier 2 Sharp-Horned Rat is chasing..."
Upon hearing the name of a nearby place, Ye Chengyun turned to look at the others.
"The clock tower is in the northwest direction, not too far from here."
"But... Late Tier 2..."
Li Zhen turned to look at Deng Ming, the strongest fighter in their team.
His combat uniform was covered in filth and blood, and his left arm hung limply, clearly dislocated.
They had just finished a battle not long ago.
"Don't worry, this injury won't have a big impact," Deng Ming said in a deep voice.
As he spoke, he grasped his left hand with his uninjured right hand.
One push, one press.
With a muffled "click," cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.
But he didn't utter a sound; instead, his eyes sharpened again.
"Let's go, whether for ourselves or for others!"
" On Yingping Road, there is a Tier 1 Sharp-Horned Rat..."
Hearing the latest news, Lin Xiaoyu turned her head to look at a slightly dark-skinned figure beside her.
" Sister Mei!"
Upon hearing this, Mei Duo's lips curled into a smile.
She turned her head and glanced at her teammates who were panting heavily beside her, and smiled:
"Walk!"
This word is crisp and concise, carrying her consistent straightforward style.
Before she could finish speaking, Mei Duo had already pushed off the ground, her figure shooting out like an arrow released from a bow.
Lin Xiaoyu and the other team members immediately followed behind without any delay.
Several figures quickly disappeared into the gray-white mist.
"At the intersection of Binhai Avenue and Jinhai Road, three Second Tier Sharp-Horned Rat..."
On a street near the Binhai Avenue, a figure shrouded in black armor let out a soft breath.
"Hey, you're finally here! Without Shen Heng, I feel like I'm blind!"
As he spoke, the man in black armor quickly ran towards the direction from which the sound came.
In the thick fog, only a faint, almost imperceptible sound could be heard.
"Three Tier Second Tier... hmm... I'd better be careful!"
"West District People's Park, a First Tier..."
Inside the third wastewater treatment plant...
"Within the Mingyue Residential Complex in the East District, between Building 7 and Building 9..."
One location after another was sent out from Building 7 of the Linhai Public Security Comprehensive Services Park.
Fan Hong stood aside, watching Shen Heng quickly get into the zone and seem to blend into the city, and felt somewhat relieved.
Although it looks like it's just broadcasting news about a Calamity Beast.
But having worked in the public security system for many years, he understood this deeply.
Sometimes, such notifications can be far more effective than one might imagine.
He was not only guiding the combatants, but also telling this fearful city:
The chaos is not boundless; at least one voice is trying to dispel the thick fog of death, telling people where the danger comes from and where it is going.
A clear, calm, and unwavering voice echoed continuously over Linhai City.
Under this voice, Linhai's existing emergency response system is being integrated and put into operation at an extremely rapid pace...
