Chapter 295 They chose China
The barrier range was 1,000 meters away, and the people who were waiting for the battle raised their heads at the same time.
The explosion of the light in the distance was reflected in all the pupils, and everyone's eardrums received the roar that shocked the head.
They saw a flash of fire, and then, long smoke like mushroom clouds rose from the barrier.
The aftermath lasted for several minutes before it didn't make people feel dizzy. Only when the light of the barrier gradually dimmed did people regain their original vision.
The dome is still the original dome, but the huge figure on the horizon has disappeared. The smoke of gunpowder has blocked the remaining dust and brought all traces to the boundless sky.
"The front-line investigation team z22 reported that the spiritual power reaction of the ghost elephant has disappeared and no signs of recovery or leakage were found."
A report came from the headphones, and even with a little current sound, it could not hide the ecstasy in the tone.
"Confirm that the target has been killed, the battle in Ancheng City has been completed, and this mission...successful!"
The voice inside the headphones went out, but the sound outside the headphones instantly rose flat and rushed straight into the sky!
The tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and the soldiers who were waiting for the outside were sweating all over. The students who had exhausted their spiritual power behind were even more limp, but no one cared about this now.
They just raised their weapons high, shouting like waving flags, and some people took off their hats and threw them into the air, like blooming fireworks.
We won!
The peace era lasted for decades, and everyone's concept of war has been blurred in their memory. Now they are in it, and they are facing natural enemies that have existed since ancient times. This is the first time for everyone present.
The cheers in the wilderness shook the sky, as if they were about to smash the night sky.
......
In the western military command post hundreds of kilometers away, the red light representing a state of emergency was turned off, the people in front of the console relaxed, they took off their headphones, and turned off the control equipment in an orderly manner.
On the open position, the missile vehicle bowed on the string was lifted and drove back to the warehouse in an orderly manner under dispatch. These equipment that was originally used for the final guarantee are no longer used.
"Thank you for your hard work, comrades, thank you for everything you have done for this battle."
The voice of the commander-in-chief sounded in the channel: "At the same time... we should also thank the practitioners of Kunlun University for their participation. This victory is the result of our unity and joint creation."
In this unknown battle, Kunlun University invested 39 cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage and 147 cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage. The Chinese government sent more than 15,000 front-line combat personnel, and those who failed to arrive in time were ignored. In addition to all the logistics personnel involved, this number may exceed 100,000.
Although twilight has come, at this time, under the dark sky, under the gradually fading intercity defense formation, the quiet Ancheng is quickly rekindling the lights.
Lights after lights lit up in the dark, and the modern city fell into neon light again.
"Notify all citizens: the demons in the city have been completely controlled, the city alarm has been lifted, and residents can pass normally. If you encounter demonic energy to clean up the area, please take a detour. Thank you for your cooperation this time."
The text messages were sent to every citizen's mobile phone, and the news was announced online. At that moment, countless people breathed a sigh of relief, and some emotionally rich people almost cried.
"Win! Win so soon!"
"China is awesome!! Kunlun University is awesome!!"
“Salute to all frontline personnel!”
"I'm in Ancheng, I'll report you all safety! Everything has returned to normal!"
"Thank you to the country!! Thank you Kunlun University!! We can have a good night's sleep tonight!"
The news came out, bringing real national excitement, and the enthusiasm was no less than the opening ceremony of the Immortal Games.
This time the boiling was stirred up by Kunlun University. Since the launch of this school, they seem to have been able to do things beyond people's imagination. Every time they make a sound, they will definitely be amazing, and they are challenging people's blood pressure limits every time.
But no one cares about this now. It would be better to say that they are eager to hear more news about that school now.
The news about the Ancheng demon incident instantly received hundreds of millions of clicks, millions of people browsing their phones, not letting go of every new message, and the enthusiastic slogans such as "We are all from Ancheng tonight", which shows the warm scene.
But in the real Ancheng, there are not many celebration scenes with loud gongs and drums. At this time, the way people use to welcome victory in this city is to eat.
During the entire battle, few people in Ancheng dared to open the stove because they were afraid of summoning demons. It was already eight or nine o'clock, and it was dark, and the people who had been hiding for a long time were already hungry. As soon as the alarm was relieved, people could not wait to catch fire.
This is the traditional Chinese art: even if the sky falls, the rice still has to be eaten.
If a happy event occurs, you have to celebrate it; if a tragedy occurs, you have to eat it and dissolve it. Now, both sadness and joy are blooming.
Within a few minutes after the alarm was lifted, Ancheng City was once again shrouded in warm lights. Explosive fragrance of rice floated out of countless residential buildings.
On that night, people treated them as if they were no less than the New Year’s Eve dinner, and they all took out the best ingredients in their homes. Many people opened their treasured old wine and drank them alone. Occasionally, someone raised their glasses to the window and sprinkled a scoop of wine out of the window, as if they were clinking glasses with someone they could not see.
This cup is for the lovely people.
......
Overseas, in the live broadcast room of CBC TV station, the blonde host sat at the table and broadcasted the report in a flat voice in front of the camera.
"...Two hours ago, a special disaster occurred in Huaguo'an city, suspected of being an invasion of alien monsters. According to the frontline news sent back by the reporter, the disaster area this time reached nearly 100,000 square feet, and the official Chinese government has launched a wartime emergency plan..."
This news was put on screens everywhere, including the famous Times Square. Many pedestrians stopped unintentionally and gathered in the square, looking up at the news on the screen, and talking a lot.
"Oh, God, this is horrible..."
"It is said that China first discovered the magical revival in nature, so is this something brought by that 'spiritual energy'?"
"I don't know how many people will die... This war will last for a long time, right?"
"Extraordinary magic is the holy fire seed, and this world is indeed not ready to steal fire..."
"If this happened in our country, I would take out my treasured 16-inch ar and fuck them! But those Chinese..."
The people in the square talked to each other, sighed, sympathized, or were undetectable gloom.
But the noise didn't last long, and the host on the screen changed a manuscript, and then the camera completely captured the surprise flashing in her blue eyes.
"Latest news, after official dispatch, the Chinese army has fully mastered the city. Now, the monsters in the city... have been completely eliminated!"
One sentence caused a stir in the square. In just a few seconds, the originally controversial discussions disappeared, and replaced by the shock of unity.
"In just a few hours, China won?!"
"Impossible! In a few hours, this is not enough to mobilize the army, right?"
Countless voices carried the same question marks. At first they suspected that it was a gimmick to report fake news on TV, but soon, major mainstream media issued notices confirming the fact that the Ancheng alarm had been lifted.
A few minutes ago, they imagined that this would be a rare war in human history, the beginning of the dark spiritual era, and that city would become the first victim on the extraordinary altar... But now, in just a few hours, the war is over.
Similar questions not only occurred in real conversations. After this news was posted online, netizens soon burst into similar surprises.
"I have heard that when an earthquake or flood occurs in China, the country will call for national support, and this time it is the same?"
"But monsters are different from earthquakes and floods! They really defeated those terrible things in such a short time?"
"How many people have been invested in this?!"
"Wait a minute, I heard that there are magicians in that city. This must be the credit of those magicians!"
As expected, this topic was soon linked to the "Immortal Games" that happened before. Thousands of videos and pictures about "magics" were posted on the Internet, confirming these words.
"Oh my God! Those people really have the power of God! This time they must have driven away those monsters!"
"They came from a school... which school helped to alleviate the disaster?"
"No, that's not a school! This must be some secret, savior organization with extraordinary power!"
"Yes, they must be hiding in the corner of history. They only appeared this time to help mankind survive the disaster!"
"It was the 'Kunlun University' who chose China!"
Soon this became a hot topic around the world. In this way, even those who do not care about education and entertainment news have to face a fact.
In this world, humans with extraordinary power have really appeared.
And now, all of those people are in China.
Human beings are born to yearn for extraordinary things. No matter what country people are, this is not an explosive news.
As overseas, people know nothing about China's affairs, and rumors among the people are becoming more and more popular. Some people even spread rumors that the army has not taken action at all, and this disaster was completely saved by those magicians.
But soon, this matter became less simple.
While the public opinion on the Internet is getting more and more intense, the information about this incident - to be precise, all the information about Kunlun University leaked, including the Immortal Games - was also placed on countless long tables, exposed to the eyes of the most elites.
Several overseas security leaders came forward to warn at home, saying that the extraordinary disaster in China was a wake-up call to the whole world, and that the phenomenon of "resurrection of aura" was officially revealed to the people, and in the form of a disaster.
They called on China to be vigilant in the future, control the development progress of the spiritual energy project, and make emergency plans. The matter of China this time is a reference, and we should learn from this efficient practice of scheduling the core forces in the country to deal with disasters and learn from it.
But in overseas countries, these proposals did not actually receive much attention. What was placed in front of those decisive figures was the information related to the "Kunlun University".
When the topic of the Immortal Games was popular on the Internet, the information bureaus of various countries had already paid attention to it. But before, they just regarded this as a rumor, but now they have to put it on a formal proposal.
"It is said that the school has a cooperative relationship with China. This disaster also confirms this."
On the conference table, the white man in a suit crossed his hands in front of his nose: "According to the reporter of the Communications Agency, in this incident, those students... those magicians are acting with the Chinese army. Does this mean anything?"
"Following the situation on this battlefield, the school with magicians may have a close connection with the Chinese government... Those with extraordinary power may be the strategic reserves of China!"
The man in the suit at the table looked tense: "Gentlemen, I think this matter needs to rise to diplomatic level. If those with extraordinary power are already in control of that country, they are all potential threats to us."
"I agree with Member William's idea. In future activities, we must ask the Chinese ambassador to give an explanation."
The fat man on the other side lit the table: "Think about it, how terrible it would be if these extraordinary powers were used in other international activities - for example, to make them real soldiers... or even spies?"
"You are right. Since the extraordinary people have participated in military operations, we should also develop our extraordinary... or, directly contact that school! We cannot let China enjoy this power alone!"
"This time they helped China. What else do they do? What is their purpose? This is probably a big deal that involves the world!"
These words made everyone on the table look cold. A few people immediately took out their phones and recorders, and they were about to do something big.
But at this moment, a finger gently knocked at the edge of the table, interrupting all the conversation.
"Gentlemen, we might have overthinked it."
The people on both sides of the long table turned their heads to look at each other, and the one who made the sound was an old man with a white beard. Compared with the others on the table, his face looked very calm.
"Maybe, there is no need for so much consideration. Those magicians are students who have not entered society. They may not have thought about the content we are talking about now. In this operation, they may just want to defend that city."
"It's just that?" the person at the table raised his eyebrows. "So, what's the reason for them doing this? Why do they fight those monsters?"
Chapter completed!
