Celestial time, four o'clock in the morning, six hours after the sky suddenly changed.
Among the group of City Lords of Sky City, several City Lords are having a heated discussion about this unexpected incident.
[Holmes: @鬼Captain. Is the boss here? No, I'll ask later. 】
[Hellboy: Damn it, the two holes on the American side are too difficult to deal with. Is there anyone who can help me? 】
[Bluebeard: There are many big forces in America, right? You can't even defend two holes, right? 】
[Hellboy: Hey, forget it. I thought it was not difficult at first. Who would have thought that these two holes were like digging into a monster's nest. A monster would fall out every ten minutes without stopping. 】
[Hellboy: I have already killed more than a dozen of them with my brothers. We are almost exhausted and exhausted. There is still a steady stream of monsters, and we can’t kill them all...]
[Solomon: Well, it’s a bit miserable, brother. Unfortunately, I can’t help. We don’t have any big influence here, so they point at me to guard the house. I really can’t leave...]
[Nine Nether: @Hellboy. Maybe it’s because it’s dark now in the world across the sky in America. It should be better when it gets brighter...]
[Hellboy: Huh? Does this thing have anything to do with day and night? ] Hellboy didn’t understand for a moment.
[Emperor: Of course, since those black holes can pass directly into our world, it means that the light from our world can be transmitted directly to the other side. Now it is daytime in America, but it is night in the opposite world in the sky. Think about it, what kind of scene do you see in the opposite world? 】
[Hellboy: Damn it, no wonder! 】
[Solomon: That makes sense! 】
…
When the emperor mentioned this, everyone reacted immediately.
Indeed, it was a dark night on the opposite side, and there was also a rabbit hole on the ground. The light from their side would shine directly through the hole, which was extremely conspicuous in the dark night. The hole was like a bright light in the darkness. It can be seen from a long distance, and it will naturally attract those light-loving creatures to come closer, and then pass through the hole and come to the earth.
On the contrary, now in the Eastern Hemisphere, the world opposite is daytime. Even at night, the city's light can penetrate the hole, and it will be diluted to the point of being almost invisible under the strong light from the opposite side. Except for the animals that happen to pass by and accidentally fall into the hole, It will not actively attract surrounding creatures.
Two completely opposite environments have resulted in the huge differences in the current situation in the Eastern and Western Hemispheres.
[Holy Light Nana: Let me ask, there are a total of nine black holes that have been discovered so far, three in Asia, two in the Americas, one in Africa, one in Europe, and the remaining two are in the ocean far away from the continent, right? ? 】
[Emperor: Yes, one more thing. According to the information I have at hand, there are currently a total of 36,008 images of other worlds in the sky around the world. These blocks are divided according to terrain and can be roughly divided into twelve. Area types, but each area cannot form a complete map. 】
[Solomon: Are you saying that these images currently displayed in the sky are not the entire world of giants? 】
[Emperor: Yes, based on the magnification ratio of creatures in the giant world, the total areas shown in the sky are probably not even the tip of the iceberg of that world...]
[Yakov: So terrifying. 】
[Yakov: Fortunately, there are two cave entrances distributed in the ocean, which are inaccessible, which reduces a lot of defensive pressure on us. Otherwise, I am afraid we would have gone into chaos a long time ago. How lucky...]
[Emperor: Lucky? Are you sure this is luck? 】
[Yakov: Ah, isn’t it? 】
[Emperor: Now everyone is busy protecting their own territory, and it is understandable that they can't get away. However, you must understand that the earth is round. The monsters emerging from the two unguarded holes will not disappear. On the contrary, they will only accumulate more and more. If they are not dealt with now, sooner or later, it will still be their turn in the future. On our heads. 】
After the emperor finished speaking, the channel fell silent.
Of course, everyone also understood what the emperor said. If the sky falls, there will be tall ones to hold it up, but now, they are just the 'tall ones'.
It's just that there are too many things involved, and everyone's instinct is to avoid and shirk the blame.
The emperor saw that no one spoke for a while and continued typing.
[Emperor: Moreover, have you ever thought about the fact that these giant beasts that came to the earth all have the ability to reproduce? We have no idea how strong the reproductive ability of these alien creatures is. If they have the same reproductive ability as mice, two alien beasts can become a nest in a few days. If left alone, it won't take long. The entire biological chain of the earth is about to undergo a major change! 】
[Hellboy: Damn it, you have too much imagination, right? 】
[Emperor: This is not an imagination, but a real possibility. 】
[Emperor: And. 】
[Hellboy: And more? 】
[Emperor: Moreover, no matter how high the star rating of the fallen creatures is, they are still monsters without much intelligence. At least there are no giants passing by these black holes yet. But what if, I mean what if, in the future, a giant passes by a certain cave entrance and discovers the existence of the cave entrance? Judging from the information collected so far on giants, these giants are intelligent and even know how to divide labor and cooperate. So, once a giant discovers a certain cave entrance, is it possible for him to call more giants...]
[Hellboy: Stop talking nonsense, it’s too scary! 】
[Jiuyou: Emperor, what exactly do you want to say? Just say it! 】
[Emperor: What I want to say is that if we all continue to be so scattered and only focus on self-preservation, destruction is the inevitable outcome! 】
[Emperor: Now, we must unite and establish a joint command organization to uniformly deploy the manpower of all forces in the world. Only by using the right people in the most suitable place can we get through this difficulty. 】
[Bluebeard: I understand the truth. The question is, who will come forward to unite? you? 】
[Emperor: I hope so, but unfortunately, I don’t have enough prestige. 】
[Jiuyou: Such a combination would definitely not be enough if we only had the manpower of big forces like us. All players must be mobilized as much as possible. 】
[Emperor: Yes, this is why I said that I don’t have enough prestige. To be elected as this person, one must have the highest reputation and reputation in the hearts of most players, and at the same time, the strength must be top-notch. Only then can it be possible. facilitate this collaboration. 】
[Emperor: Actually, we already have such a candidate. 】
[Bluebeard: Is Captain Ghost a boss...]
[Solomon: But the boss is not online. I have sent a lot of private messages and I can’t get in touch at all...]
[Holy Light Nana: Unable to contact me. 】
[Holmes: @鬼Captain. Is the boss here? No, I'll ask later. 】
[Hellboy: Detective brother, you’ve been sending messages for a day, can’t you just ask me? 】
[Hellboy: @丁雅淑香. Girl, where are the big guys? 】
[Elegant Shuxiang: Ah, this...]
Xiaoya, who had been silently peeking at the screen in the pet shop, suddenly panicked.
How to answer this situation?
Tell them directly about the situation with their boss? But will this reveal important information?
Or should I continue to hide it...
The reason why Xiaoya was panicked was because she knew very well that what she represented in the eyes of everyone now was not herself, but the identity of 'Ghost Captain', and her words and deeds could have a huge impact.
As a pet shop employee who has lived on the ground floor for a long time, Xiaoya has no idea how to deal with this situation.
Almost subconsciously, she dug out Lin Xue's private message and wanted to consult.
As a result, before she could send the message, she heard a knock on the door and someone was ringing the doorbell.
Xiaoya hurriedly ran to take a look, only to find that it was Lin Xue standing at the door.
"Sister Xue, why are you here?" Xiaoya's eyes lit up.
At this time, Lin Xue's face was still a little pale, and it was obvious that her body had not fully recovered.
"After such a big incident, I can't stay at home safely. Besides, since Mu You is not here, I think you may receive a lot of inquiries from people here." After saying that, Lin Xue waved back and asked the people behind him. The car that sent her here returned on its own, and then she followed Xiaoya into the pet shop.
"Sister Xue, you understand me so well!" Xiaoya was surprised and moved, and hurriedly described the discussion in the city owner group just now and their last question.
"Is that so..." Lin Xue pondered for a moment after hearing this.
"What should we do, Sister Xue? How should we answer?" Xiaoya asked carefully.
"Pull me into the group, and I'll talk to them." Lin Xue thought for a while and said.
"Oh okay..." Xiaoya seemed to be amnesty and hurriedly used the invitation function in the group.
After a few seconds, Lin Xue agreed to the invitation.
['Red Scythe Girl' joined the group chat. 】
[Solomon:? 】
[Bluebeard: I’m going! 】
[Hellboy: The Red Scythe boss is here! 】
[Holy Light Nana: Wow, welcome, there is another female compatriot, currently 3:8. 】
[Red Scythe Girl: Hello everyone, I have temporarily joined this group as the deputy city lord of Dawn City. All subsequent affairs related to Dawn City will be handled by me. 】
Lin Xue first explained the reason why she joined the group, proving that she did not join the group by abusing her relationship.
[Emperor: Acting City Lord... In other words, Captain Ghost is really not on Earth now? 】
[Red Scythe Girl: Yes. 】
[Emperor: Then where is he? 】
[Red sickle girl: In the star spirit world. 】
[Bluebeard: Huh? Then call the boss back quickly. At such an important moment, we need the boss to come forward and take charge of the overall situation! 】
[Jiuyou: Do you need a 'door'? If so, we can provide it at any time...]
[Red Scythe Girl: Unfortunately, Captain Ghost is currently in a state of incapacity and will not be able to return within the next week. 】
Lin Xue directly explained the situation to everyone, because she knew that this could not be concealed, especially from the people in front of her who had the ability to make decisions. Misleading them would be tantamount to misleading the whole world.
[Bluebeard: One week, this...]
[Emperor: Unable to move, it will take up to a week... In other words, has Ghost Captain really begun to fuse the divine skin? 】
Lin Xue did not expect that the emperor's judgment was so accurate.
[Solomon: Huh? God skin! 】
[Hellboy: Let me go, is this a god’s skin? Is it too fast? I don’t even have the artifact yet...]
[Bluebeard: Too strong! 】
[Holy Light Nana: No wonder I can’t be contacted...]
…
Everyone's attention was instantly transferred to the 'God Skin', and everyone was amazed.
At this time, the emperor brought the discussion back on track in time.
[Emperor: In other words, we must rely on our own strength to survive for at least a week, right? 】
[Red Scythe Girl: Yes. 】
[Bluebeard: Hey, a week...]
[Holmes: But in a week, as long as the boss comes back with the god skin, he will definitely be able to solve all this, right? 】The problem of Sherlock Holmes is also the one that everyone is most concerned about. If the problem can be solved after a week, it doesn't seem to be too difficult.
Just afraid...
[Red Scythe Girl: I don’t know. 】
Lin Xue straightforwardly gave the answer that no one wanted to see.
[Holmes: Uh... But the situation will definitely improve after the boss comes back, right? 】
[Red Sickle Girl: To be honest, I can’t guarantee...]
In the pet shop, Lin Xue hesitated again and again before typing this sentence.
She knew that everyone was in urgent need of some confidence now. If only monsters fell in the next few days, it would be okay for her to give a positive answer here.
The problem is that she cannot guarantee this, because once a giant lands on the earth in the future, the small disaster that occurred in the star spirit world will most likely be repeated on the earth.
She has no idea whether the power of the God of Order can rewrite the outcome of the Little Disaster, and she really doesn't dare to make any judgments.
[Red Scythe Girl: There is another important information that may be related to the fate of mankind. I must announce it here. 】
After Lin Xue took a breath, she typed out the truth about the demise of the Gods and the minor disaster a thousand years ago.
[Solomon: God-eating... beast? 】
[Hellboy: WTF? Is there such a thing? Then we are not doomed! 】
…
Everyone was shocked after hearing this.
How should they deal with something that can even wipe out the gods?
Parasitic beasts that can reproduce infinitely and spread silently are theoretically impossible to defend against. In other words, whenever a giant comes, it will be a disaster for humans!
This doesn’t give you any way to survive...
The group became quiet for a moment, and an atmosphere of despair quietly spread in the blank spaces of the group chat.
After a while, the emperor spoke first and broke the silence.
[Emperor: I roughly understand the situation...]
[Emperor: From this point of view, there are only two things we can do. 】
[Jiuyou: What? 】
[Emperor: First, persist for seven days and wait for Captain Ghost to return to see if his divine skin can bring about a change. 】
[Bluebeard: What about second place? 】
[Emperor: Second... pray, pray that no giant will discover the existence of those black holes within at least seven days, otherwise...]
The emperor didn't finish his words, but everyone understood what he meant.
No one said anything after that, and the group suddenly became cold. Everyone went to deal with various affairs in a worried manner.
…
Soon, the night gradually dissipated.
After surviving this difficult night, when the sky finally turned white, major countries around the world suddenly jointly issued wartime warnings and emergency evacuation notices through national television stations and portal websites.
In addition to a guide for ordinary people on how to survive and avoid disasters, the notice contains three instructions.
First, all residents of the corresponding cities and areas under the nine black holes must be evacuated, and all areas under the nine black holes are designated as the highest-level danger zones.
Second, each country calls upon the entire society to mobilize a large number of high-level combat forces, and at the same time summons all players with weather magic.
The reason given is that a large number of people are needed to create dark clouds 24 hours a day under the nine black holes to block as much light as possible.
Third, and the most stringent and controversial one, the entire field is silent!
We call on people all over the world to do everything possible to reduce noise, shut down large factories with excessive noise, ban the use of sonic boom magic, firearms and ammunition, etc., and at the same time reduce the use of light pollution magic as much as possible.
There is nothing much to say about the first two items, but the third item makes many people wonder. Even noise has become a controlled area? The use of heavy fire weapons and powerful magic is not allowed. Is this a bit of a waste of time?
In this regard, only a very few insiders understand the reason.
Compared to creatures like the God-devouring Beast, which has the ability to exterminate humans, it doesn't really matter how many other alien beasts there are. At most, they will suffer heavy casualties, but they will not become extinct. But once any giant comes, it is equivalent to directly starting the countdown to the destruction of the world.
To put it bluntly, as long as there is a glimmer of hope to reduce the possibility of being discovered by the giant, they must implement it now unconditionally.
