"Fireworks!"
"Huh? What holiday is today?"
"It's the last day the library is open. It's probably a celebration."
Most people in the city still don’t know what happened. Too many things have happened in Evarong recently. Although normal life has not been disturbed, it is almost like a group of demons dancing at night. Many people have witnessed several special operations group mages. Emergency everywhere.
But it's daytime now!
The guards had quickly rushed to the place where the fireworks were launched, but the person who launched them obviously knew how to avoid the guards and had long since disappeared.
"Damn it, he ran away again!"
"Why are there so many annoying incidents these days! Can't we let people patrol them properly?"
"I'm so exhausted! Aren't there these artificial beings here? Why do we have to be on duty every day?"
The guards from the diamond area arrived, and the result of finding nothing soon aroused the irritation of these people. They cursed and turned to retreat. One of them turned around and found an artificial life blocking behind him, and he was also turning around.
"This stupid thing doesn't know how to let this person click?" He kicked the artificial life to the side. The person next to him immediately became unhappy: "What are you doing? Artificial life has no soul, but it is also a guard!"
"What? A bunch of refined things are similar to the mechanical tools in the workshop. Do you think he will fight back?" the guard mocked.
"Damaging the artificial life guard is the same as attacking the guard! No matter what, I have to arrest you!"
"Hey! Are you really going to do it?"
After a few words they didn't agree with, the two started fighting. Some of the other guards tried to stop the fight, while others tried to deflect it. In the chaos, no one noticed that the artificial life being kicked away got up and raised its metal arm. , the magic energy crystal embedded in the palm began to gather magic rays.
A beam of white light penetrated the head of the guard who kicked him in the first place, and also injured the person next to him. The guards were suddenly startled and rushed forward quickly: "Something's wrong! Emergency shutdown!"
Another metal foot swept over and kicked him directly in the chest. Even if he consciously put on the magic shield in advance, the shield was still shattered and he flew away.
"There's something wrong with artificial life! Fix them quickly!"
However, the guard establishment is half-half human and half artificial life, and this matter obviously cannot be easily solved. More artificial life forms roared like tigers and gathered around.

In the Turquoise District, Yiqing hurriedly ran out of the Taoist temple where he was staying. Eastern Taoism has its own unique characteristics in the magic system, so the Taoist cultivators are somewhat sensitive when being targeted. The problem was that the induction this time was a bit too strong. Yiqing vomited blood at least, and the Taoist temple leader almost vomited his heart out.
Not long after he ran towards the central area, he saw a tragic scene. Anyone who has really touched some Xuanmen Taoism will turn blue in the face, but those who practice body training will be fine for the time being. After walking two streets, I happened to see a man wearing animal skin armor, with a sword hanging on his waist and a crossbow on his back, helping an old Taoist who was vomiting blood seriously to his feet.
"Hawkeye!"
"Yiqing? Fortunately, there's nothing wrong with you..."
"My cultivation level is a bit low, but it's okay."
The veteran who was helped up by Yingyan grabbed Yingyan's arm, and his eyes were almost bloodshot: "Tell... cough, everyone, don't use your mind, and don't control your spiritual power... This is... the Huntian Technique... …”
"Shit!" Eagle Eye scolded as he helped the old man sit next to the wall. When Yiqing looked up at this moment, he seemed to see a dragon-headed cloud in the turquoise sky, which blurred into a ball in the blink of an eye.

In the Garnet District, in the quiet room of Penglai House, Pengshan Yuanzi was instructing the servants to transport an elder of the famous clan here.
"Miss, what on earth is going on?" A man in his thirties asked beside her. His head was sweating profusely. The previous butler had also fainted. At this time, he could only be replaced temporarily. He is not as calm as Yuanzi.
"There is no need to panic. The Pengshan family has a Feng Shui array to protect the surroundings. Although it cannot completely compete, your life is safe. Just stay here. No one is allowed to enter the quiet room except my order, and my order only depends on the signature. ,Understand?"
"yes!"
Pengshan Yuanzi led everyone outside the house, sealed two seals on the door with his own hands, asked people to guard the surrounding entrances and exits, and walked to the front yard.
At this moment, there were no guests in the Penglai House. The older ones had fainted, and the younger ones had already run away when they saw that the situation was bad. She gently unfolded her robe, and the entire front hall suddenly fell into a strange gray-black silence. Butterflies made of countless lines flew up from everywhere, and the surrounding space rippled with the shuttle of these butterflies. Large and small circles were formed.
"Wu He, Chuan Zhen, return to their positions."
Two nearly three-meter-tall birds rose from the two largest rings, holding mice as big as footballs in their talons. After the two birds landed, they turned around and immediately transformed into similarly dressed in hunting clothes. But the human appearance is blurry.
"Rat." Pengshan Yuanzi glanced at the two dead rats on the ground. They were just two. The real number must be more than these. It is still unclear how these rats launched their attack.

"Ahem, cough, cough." The stall owner coughed violently twice and smiled at the fat man: "Boss, the medicinal materials here are not well kept. The smell is so strong, which means the sealing is not good. When Ewa Gallery reopens, I'm afraid the medicinal properties will be lost." You’ll lose most of it.”
"Ah? Really?" The fat man twisted his head in confusion, half of his face completely covered by his fat.
Old Howard poked the stall owner and whispered, "Is he getting fatter? I thought I saw it wrong, but he wasn't that fat yesterday, and now he's almost turned into a ball of flesh."
"What? Do you think this person is still blowing air?" The stall owner was stunned for a moment.
Lu Ning covered her nose. Indeed, the fragrance had become stronger and stronger, but was it really because the medicinal materials were not well preserved? Her thoughts were racing, and she drew out the dagger without hesitation and slashed it!
A sack next to him was cut open in an instant. This movement startled Old Howard and the others. They turned around and wanted to ask, but Lu Ning didn't wait for them to speak and pointed directly at the door with the knife: "Leave now!"
She clearly saw that all the medicinal materials that fell out of the sack were withered. It was not that they were dried in the sun, but that the essence of the medicinal properties had been taken away, leaving only some fragile residues!
Howard had almost absolute trust in Lu Ning and ran away without even thinking after hearing this. However, the stall owner slowed down a little and opened his mouth to ask "why".
The fat man took a deep breath: "Oh... my nose... my nose is blocked..."
Immediately afterwards, white mist appeared on his body visibly to the naked eye, and the stall owner happened to be within the scope of the white mist. The young men were pulled over by him and hurried over to save them, but a knife used to cut medicinal materials flew out of the mist and plunged directly into the chest of one young man. Immediately afterwards, the stall owner rushed out holding another knife, his eyes red, his mouth wide open and talking nonsense.
"It's so…unbearable…"
The fat man continued to take a deep breath, and the white mist squeezed out of him, began to spread, and began to spread along windows, skylights and other places. The body of the dead young man on the ground began to wither quickly. Lu Ning grabbed the window and climbed out, shouting: "Run out quickly! Report to the guards! This is not something we can handle!"
There weren't many people around the warehouse, but they weren't completely absent either. Lu Ning jumped out of the window and saw two people cleaning up the warehouse without taking two steps. She immediately told them to leave, but she had no time to explain what happened.
There was a crashing sound behind him.
The fat man's huge body smashed open the warehouse wall arrogantly. He was panting heavily and looking in the direction Lu Ning was running away. He didn't pursue him - he really couldn't move.
Similar things happened in each of the twelve outer districts, and large-scale disasters occurred in six of them. The guards and high-level mages provided support very quickly, and information was quickly responded to. However, the problem was support. The troops soon fell into those six areas.
"The currently known information is... In the Garnet District, disasters gradually erode people's bodies in descending order of age. Because of this, some older senior magicians cannot escape. In the Aquamarine District, everyone is lost and lost. In a state of shock, even if you move, you may bump into someone or even a dangerous object, and the spell will not be cast correctly at all. A large-scale battle broke out in the diamond area. No matter who it was, whether it was to persuade or stop it, in the end Everyone has joined the battle, and there have been casualties in many places. In the Ruby District, a group outbreak of food poisoning occurred. The test report showed that there was no abnormal food, and there was nothing abnormal about the diet of those people. However, there are also some problems in the medical team sent there. People have the same situation. In the sapphire area, many people have developed hair growth, physical strengthening, reduced intelligence, and have become irritable and unable to understand human language. Finally, in the turquoise area, a large number of practitioners have vomited blood. It is suspected to be related to the daily sense of heavenly secrets in Taoism and the occurrence of whims."
"Thanks, Gabriel."
Twelve official members have gathered at this moment, standing at the top of the tower of the Violet Library, looking down at the Eva Gallery. Dulemond's tone was calm, but anyone who knew him knew that this man had always kept his mood and anger secretive.
"Is there any news about the main messenger behind the assumption?"
A congressman wearing a Tai Chi robe nodded: "It can basically be concluded that this incident was caused by evolution."
"How did they bring this stuff in?"
"I think the trigger behind these things is not too big. Generally speaking, they are normal items. Even if Evarang inspects them, they cannot be so thorough." Kirubo said.
"oh?"
"Master Fenghang should have noticed it." Chilubo looked at the Tai Chi robe.
"Yes, reports of animal shapes were observed at the six locations where the incident occurred." Master Fenghang stroked his beard.
"What is it?"
"Zodiac." Master Fenghang sighed, "Evolution has deliberately chosen this combination, and now only six of them have shown power. I think the other six areas will not be spared. Gabriel, the trouble is observation. When it comes to those six serious areas, don’t ignore the anomalies in other areas.”
"I know." Gabriel frowned, "Why don't we deal with it?"
"What evolution really hates is us. If we leave the Violet Library, it will be just what they want." Dulemond raised his head slightly, "They can't hold back for long. The outer area can only be a prelude. They managed to plan it with great difficulty. If a big event happens, the real strength will definitely be used against us."
"But we still have to take care of things outside, especially the students and teachers in those areas." Heinz took a step forward. "I will lead a team of people to go directly to suppress it. This way we will have people on the outside to respond to the situation and avoid the situation." What an accident."
"...Heinz, I remember that you have to guard the library today." Durmond glanced at him.
"Any one of us can control the matter in the library, but the Parliament must express its opinion on the external situation. Dulemond, whether you admit it or not, evolution has indeed brought some crises to Evarang this time."
"Okay." Dulemond nodded, "Special operations team, you can bring twenty people, and the air restriction will exempt you. We will carry out the rescue while ensuring safety as much as possible."

In the Amethyst District, Garcia walked downstairs, surrounded by two little purple ghosts that ordinary people could not see, followed by Juno.
"Although we have known each other for a long time..." Garcia looked into the distance, "but this seems to be the first time we have truly joined forces."
"It won't work if the upgrades happen randomly." Juno smiled, "How about it? Do you still think it's superfluous for me to spread so many eyes and ears?"
"After all, I didn't know that such a large-scale disaster could break out in such a magical city." Garcia sighed. At this moment, a little ghost next to her suddenly let out a scream, turned into a purple ghost face, and disappeared into the air. At the same time, the ground rose, and a man covering his ears emerged from the ground. He came out and crawled away while crying miserably.
"Is it hopeless?" Garcia looked at the man, "He must have been alienated."
"The real troubles are all hidden. If they hadn't happened to control the person who cast the witchcraft on me first, they wouldn't have been able to track their actions." Juno blinked, "But in terms of combat effectiveness, I might be the real one. It’s not enough, now the ground is full of ‘rabbits’.”
"Tsk, everyone has too much time to take care of themselves." Garcia looked down at the ground. There was a hole left where the man came out. "So do you usually catch rabbits with smoke or by flooding them with water?"
Before Juno could answer, another firework rose in the sky, this time it was green. After the firework exploded in the air, a loud shout came out.
"People in the outer city, the Council has abandoned you. Facts have proved that even Evarang cannot react under the attack of the mythical beasts carefully cultivated by our evolution. These mythical beasts all come from the self-dedication of the evolution members, and they obviously Much more powerful than the so-called Twelve Members."
"What kind of nonsense is this?" Juno shook his head slightly.
"They have the upper hand now and are showing off their power. No matter what, some people believe it." Garcia said calmly, "But I don't think they can stay around for long. I can handle this kind of thing, let alone the one in the parliament." It’s so impressive.”
"The truth of nature is self-evolution. You could have turned into gems under the temper of nature, but you have turned into a flood of handicrafts because of boring carvings. This is wrong! And we can correct these mistakes now and go to Let’s spread the seeds of evolution in the central city and let everything return to natural selection!”
The sound of fireworks ends here.
