Chapter 462: The Night of Revelation
"Dear viewers, due to some emergencies, we are temporarily unable to contact our special correspondents, so now our station has temporarily called..."
The host on the screen seemed to have recovered his calmness, but it was obvious that his report's attraction had been greatly reduced at this time. At least the four ladies focused on a mysterious plan. Just looking at Qin Ying's look of covering her mouth and widening her eyes, she knew that the plan was very... unusual.
"Hey! Can you hear it?"
Suddenly, a roar mixed with a little noise interrupted the host's report, and also attracted the attention of the four women back to the screen.
"Can you hear the studio? Here is a group of reports! Can you hear me talking??"
Soon, a slightly blurry picture was inserted into the right side of the screen. Although there were many white spots like snowflakes on the picture, you could still clearly see behind the reporter wearing a black assassin robe. The reporter was obviously standing on the city wall.
"You can hear it! You can hear it!"
After a series of unexpected events, the host seemed to have some kind of immunity. He quickly reacted and immediately hung up the phone and started to re-execute the initial light reporting plan.
"A group of reporting teams, can you tell us about the current situation in Xueshi City?"
After a few seconds...
"Well, OK, let's go down."
This section of the city wall seems to be located in the north of Xueshi City, and has not been damaged yet, but the city wall has been empty, and many flags and weapons have been scattered on the aisle, indicating that the city no longer belongs to its original owner.
"... At 10 o'clock tonight, the Heles Expeditionary Force launched the first operation. They first used several troops to conduct feint attacks... At first we all thought that Heles would attack the city gate with all their might, but everything that followed clearly told everyone that this was a scam. Heles' main force was not the Heles Expeditionary Force, but a secretly trained special forces..."
While walking under the city wall, the reporter briefly introduced everything that happened this night.
"...The Duchy of Tiling seemed to be off guard at first and did not organize a decent counterattack. Of course, this is also related to the use of a large number of new weapons by Crimson Scythe...hey!"
As soon as the reporter walked down the city wall, a soldier lying on the ground nearby who had been infected with natural disasters suddenly rose up and opened his mouth and rushed towards the reporter. However, the reporter was obviously very good at it. He just kicked the zombie soldier hard to the wall.
"Can a group of reporters tell us what that is?"
Soon, a thick mosaic covered the zombie who seemed to have been kicked and broken, fully demonstrating the harmony of the show.
"Well, that's the point I'm going to talk about tonight..."
After the camera swayed, the reporter came to the top of a house.
"Look at it all."
The moment the camera moved in the direction of the reporter's finger, a large piece of mosaic appeared on the screen.
"On this night, Helesh's army committed the worst, cruelest, and most inhumane acts I've ever seen! (Damn Harmony) They actually released something similar to poison gas to civilians. This thing will not only suffocate and die, but also turn dead people into zombies, which is extremely contagious... Now the entire Xueshi City has basically become a dead domain, and at least 100,000 civilians have died under this poison gas..."
"So I have always said that those necromancers are either epilepsy patients or severe psychopaths, and few normal people."
Although he was a little prepared for what would happen in the city of Xuexi, the four girls did not expect such a crazy thing to happen, and Feng Jingyin frowned even more, with an expression of extreme disgust.
"Well... what should I say? Although Helez has been opening the country for a hundred years, he will not be able to get rid of the attitude and tradition of despising life for a while. It is not too strange that such things will happen... Compared to the [Eternal War] period, the situation where tens of thousands of people are often reduced to experimental products is much better."
Ouyang Riko's analysis seems very rational, as if she was infected by Yue Yulou. She has also read many historical classics in the Yashan world on weekdays. Although she cannot be said to be proficient, she is much more insightful than most players.
"A group of reporters, it is said that the Church of Light soon joined the war. So what exactly is the situation?"
"Well, that's the second point I'm going to talk about tonight..."
As he said that, the reporter quickly turned around and pointed to the sky to the west, where there were several huge [Blue Angel]-shaped airships moving slowly, and the huge golden sun pattern on the airship was extremely conspicuous.
"...You may not believe it. Just tonight, here, an incident with a probability comparable to a meteor... Just as the Helez Expeditionary Force was operating, the Crusaders of the Church of Light also launched an action. Not only did the two have the same steps, but they were even almost the same time! What is most unbelievable is that the Crusaders also adopted a strategy of feinting attacks and special forces taking airships into the city! This makes people unable to understand anyway. Could it be that a senior traitor appeared on one side? Or was the action plan leaked? We have no way to know... But the only thing that can be confirmed is that the two enemies of the church and the cemetery were caught off guard by this emergency."
"What do you personally think about this battle tonight, or the massacre?"
"What I want to say is..."
The reporter lowered his head and thought for a while, suddenly raised his head and said in a slightly low tone:
"...I hope everyone in front of the TV can think more about what kind of identity we should deal with in this world where we do not need to be responsible, and what kind of mentality should we use to face those NPCs with blood and tears. Everyone... should examine their souls when entering the game."
Before he finished speaking, the reporter quickly took out a piece of crystal from his belt and looked at the contents on it briefly, but his face suddenly sank.
"Host, the latest news came from the three groups just now, and the Day Demon appeared!"
"ah!?"
As soon as these words came out, not only did the host get furious, but the four women in front of the screen also raised their hearts.
"Dear viewers, the long-awaited Demon of the Day has appeared. Now we are contacting our special correspondent..."
This time it was much smoother than before. In just over ten seconds, the screen was transmitted, and a half-physical reporter was standing in front of the camera.
“Can you hear it in the studio?”
"Can."
"That's good... Since the scene is quite dangerous, I can't speak loudly. I hope everyone understands."
Although I cannot be there in person, many viewers can feel the tense atmosphere from the deliberately lowered voice of the reporter. The collapsed palace behind the reporter vividly interprets the tragic battle that once occurred...
"Three groups of reporters, can you briefly introduce the situation on the scene to us? Mu once threatened to enter the City of Learning openly. So have they fulfilled this promise now? How did Heles and the Church of Light deal with Mu's arrival?"
"Okay, I'll just briefly talk about it."
After carefully looking around for a while, I found that there was no abnormality, the reporter led the cameraman to the side of the palace quietly, and then pointed to the two forces that were still confronting each other despite stopping the battle, and whispered:
"Mu's arrival is actually very sudden. According to our informant, although the church Hekels was prepared, there seemed to be a gap in the layout of the defense line, so Mu's arrival caught both sides off guard... Just an hour and a half ago, Mu's airship walked out of the gap in the defense line between both sides, and could almost be said to have stepped into the City of Learning with a swagger, so at this point, the Day Demon fulfilled his promise..."
"Uh~~hehe."
Just as the three ladies were looking at the screen attentively, Ouyang Riko suddenly let out an inexplicable laughter, which immediately attracted the attention of the rest of the people.
"What's wrong?"
At some point, Feng Lingyin also had a knowing smile on the corner of her mouth.
"You probably saw it, right?"
"Oh? Then do you know who it is?"
"Well~~ The ambush in Yulou is buried very deeply, even I have no way to know, but there is one thing that can be confirmed..."
"Their status is definitely not low, at least they have to be the Archbishop and the Grand Councilor, right?"
"I'm afraid it's more than that..."
After smiling at each other, the two turned their gaze to the screen again. Although Feng Jingyin and Qin Ying were confused, they did not ask much.
"...Mu showed a terrifying firepower in this operation. Although their airship formations were smaller than those of the church and Helez, their performance was very advanced and their combat power was no less than that of both. As an organization without any base, Mu was too mysterious."
The reporter sighed quite well, obviously he had been deeply shocked by Mu's appearance before.
"Three groups of reporters, based on the information provided by some players, Mu seems to have launched an indiscriminate attack on civilian targets. Is that true?"
"Um……"
When asked about this, the reporter's voice couldn't help but feel a little low.
"...We who live in peaceful times will never be able to imagine the tragic situation at that time. In the past, I have always been looking forward to war, but now... I hope I will never see the Second War in my life."
The reporter's words were obscure, but they clearly revealed a meaning - Mu was also a member of this war, and they were not essentially different from the other two in some ways.
After discovering that the topic seemed a bit heavy, the host immediately turned around and asked the question that everyone was most concerned about in front of the screen.
"Three groups of reporters, it is said that the day demon has appeared. Can the camera be turned over?"
"Well………………"
For some reason, the reporter was speechless. Seeing the embarrassed look, the host was puzzled.
"Three groups of reporters, is there any inconvenience?"
"This is not, it's just..."
Finally, after a secret sigh, the reporter randomly pointed his hand to the upper right.
"... Everyone will understand after reading it."
Soon, the camera turned in the direction of the reporter's finger.
"This is!?"
In an instant, not only the host, but everyone in front of the screen, including the four ladies, were shocked.
"Three groups of reporters, have you... entered the silk hole?"
Chapter completed!
