Outside the Glory Glory Sports Center.
More than 50,000 people had gathered there. Some of them didn't manage to buy tickets, while others couldn't afford them. However, that didn't dampen their enthusiasm.
People gathered together to watch the big screen outside the sports center. Every now and then, they would burst into cheers when they saw the highlights.
Although it was late at night, Shang Jing was still filled with excitement and restlessness.
All the bars and shopping malls were packed with people. It was even livelier than the New Year.
The excitement gave the patrol officers on the street a headache. They had already received the yellow alert, but the people didn't know about it.
In Shang Jing, hundreds of figures were floating in the air or flapping their wings a hundred meters above the ground.
"What are those rats planning to do today?"
Looking at the flashing neon lights and the crowds everywhere, a Guardian frowned and asked anxiously.
Although they hadn't found anything in the past two days, all the signs pointed to something big happening.
Even so, the rats were still not afraid of death and chose to show up today.
Guardian Zhan Xing was also worried.
"There are too many people. Should we send out a city-wide alert?
Otherwise, the consequences will be serious if something really happens! "
Many of the experts were silent.
Soon, someone said, "Let's wait a little longer. A city-wide alert will have a big impact."
Sending out a city-wide alert on a day like today would definitely cause panic among the people.
People living in the base city seemed to be protected by the Guardian Artifact and could live and work in peace without being attacked by monsters. However, they didn't feel very safe.
Most people knew that the situation wasn't optimistic.
They just couldn't do anything to change it, so they tried to divert their attention and not think about it.
The news would also deliberately avoid reporting about it to avoid causing panic.
Once panic appeared, it would cause a lot of chaos.
This was Shang Jing.
It was the political center of the country and the base city with the most comprehensive strength and experts.
If something happened here, it would be much more serious than in other base cities.
Moreover, the entire country was watching tonight. If something happened, it would spread all over the country in an instant. It would be impossible to hide it.
If it was serious, all the major industries would be impacted and affected.
People wouldn't be in the mood to go to work. They would rush to buy daily necessities and prices would rise. The most serious manifestation would be that the birth rate of newborns would drop significantly in the next few years.
Because of the panic, people didn't want to get married or have children.
As parents, they did not want their children to live in an era where even safety could not be guaranteed.
Therefore, no one dared to give the order to activate the city-wide alarm until the last step.
"I'm afraid it's another revenge against Lin Feng's group."
A middle-aged man in casual clothes suddenly said.
He was also a guardian of Shang Jing. His name was Chen Xingtian.
His tone was calm and he didn't show any dissatisfaction, but there seemed to be a hidden meaning in his words.
"That's right. After killing so many non-human geniuses, the non-human race will definitely want revenge.
Who knows, they might be the targets tonight. "Someone agreed.
"Chen Xingtian, I've disliked you since a long time ago. Don't be so sarcastic with your words. Why didn't I see you taking revenge when the foreign race's geniuses killed the human race's geniuses?
Why couldn't Lin Feng and the others take revenge?
You're a Guardian, and you've been living like a prince all these years. How many aliens have you killed?
Lin Feng and the others are weaker than you, but any one of them has a much more glorious battle record than you. "
A white-haired old man sneered at Chen Xingtian.
Being mocked, Chen Xingtian didn't change his expression. He just shook his head.
"I became a Guardian because of my strength and battle record. I'm 47 years old this year and I've killed as many alien races as you have. You don't have to provoke me. I'm just stating the facts."
"Stating the facts?
I think you have a very bad tendency. "
The old man snorted and said with disdain.
His words made many people's faces change.
Regardless of whether he sided with the alien race or the "New World," the consequences were very serious.
Chen Xingtian couldn't stay calm this time. He said angrily, "I think you're the one who's implying something. Did I say something wrong?"
"Enough!
Why are you still arguing at this time? "
Just as the two of them were arguing, a woman scolded.
The woman's status was obviously not low. When she spoke, the quarrel immediately stopped.
The woman looked at Yang Qingtian and asked, "Old Master Yang, what do you think?
Should we alert the entire city? "
Yang Qingtian was the family head of the Yang family and a peak Martial King. He used to be a Guardian, so his words were more persuasive than the ordinary Guardians.
Yang Qingtian was silent for a while. He didn't answer directly because even he didn't dare to suggest it.
"Is there any news?" he asked.
Someone behind him replied, "No, but it's confirmed that there are alien races in Shang Jing, and there's more than one of them. As for their purpose, we still don't know."
"There really are alien races who aren't afraid of death. In that case, let's alert the entire city. Since the alien race has appeared, there will be a big commotion tonight."
A trace of killing intent flashed in Yang Qingtian's eyes, and his tone was cold.
Since the alien race dared to enter the base city, they were definitely not small fries. Small fries didn't have the ability to do so.
Only with the alien race leading the way would those rats have the courage to show up.
Just as the many powerhouses were discussing …
An uninvited guest arrived at the base of the Hong family, one of the top ten families in Shang Jing.
The Hong family was ranked second among the top ten families in Shang Jing. Their overall strength was even stronger than the Yang family.
In a room, two young men sat on chairs and looked at three screens in front of them. They talked from time to time.
On the screens was a room with blue walls.
There was a girl who seemed to be 15 or 16 years old in the room.
The girl was sitting on a chair. She wasn't tall, at most 1.6 meters. She was chubby and had a chubby face. She looked a little cute, but around her eyes, there was a pair of dark circles, which looked a little funny and weird.
Dark circles were not rare. People who suffered from insomnia had them, but to have such dark circles was rare.
These dark circles were comparable to that of a giant panda.
The girl sat in front of the computer table and drank a drink. There was a "ka ka" sound coming from her mouth. It was the sound of potato chips.
She was focused on the computer. On the screen was the scene of the Hongyun Team vs the Great Wall Team.
Looking at the figure who was about the same age as her, her eyes were a little envious.
While the girl was watching the game, the two young men were chatting.
"This year's finals are really exciting. It's a pity that I can't go to the scene."
"No choice. Work is more important."
"This psychic doesn't need to sleep. She stays in her room 24 hours a day, eating snacks and playing computer games. She lives a leisurely life and doesn't cultivate much."
"Haha, do you want this kind of treatment?"
"Are you kidding? I don't want to be a monster."
At the same time, the girl on the screen stretched, stood up, and walked out of the room.
"The psychic has walked out of the room. Change the screen."
.....
After playing computer games and eating snacks for the whole day, Hong Yi was a little annoyed.
She got up and walked out of the room slowly.
A gentle breeze blew over, bringing with it a sense of coolness.
But the scene in front of her was very depressing.
Outside the door, there was a small courtyard. The courtyard was scattered with yellow sand and gravel, and some flowers and plants were placed randomly.
Around the small courtyard, there were pitch-black iron pillars. These metal pillars were half a meter in diameter and twenty to thirty meters high. It was like a giant prison that surrounded the small courtyard.
Naturally, it also surrounded Hong Yi.
Hong Yi's eyes were calm in the face of this steel cage. She had lived here since she was five years old and was already used to it.
Outside the iron prison, there were five tall towers in the shape of stairs, surrounding her position, forming a circular encirclement.
There were two or three people standing on each tower. The moment Hong Yi appeared, all of their eyes were focused on her.
There were men and women. Although they had different figures and appearances, they all had one thing in common.
That was, the way they looked at Hong Yi was filled with astonishment.
It was not curiosity!
It was a very complicated look, containing a kind of contempt, fear, disgust, gloating, and other emotions.
Hong Yi ignored these gazes.
"Silly bird."
Hong Yi looked up at the sky. In the dark night sky, there was a big bird flapping its wings and circling in the sky like a red cloud.
This big bird had no feathers, but it had scales. The palm-sized scales were dark red and had a cold luster. Looking at it, the wingspan was at least fifteen meters.
On its head, there were pale white bone spurs that formed a white feather crown like a horn. This was a king-level demonic beast called the Feathered Crown Eagle.
Hong Yi could feel that from the moment she walked out of the room, she was locked on by this big bird. She could clearly feel a sense of oppression.
"Silly bird, come down!"
Hong Yi was a little bored. She crossed her hands behind her head and lay on the grass, looking at the big bird. After a long time, the big bird's originally fierce beast eyes shifted its gaze and no longer looked at her.
The feeling of being locked on slowly disappeared.
"Are you afraid of me too?"
Hong Yi muttered to herself, a trace of sadness in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"Hmm?"
Hong Yi suddenly looked at a dark corner five meters away from her, covered by an iron pillar.
"Eh?"
A surprised voice sounded.
Under Hong Yi's gaze, a dark figure appeared out of thin air. The figure was wearing ordinary jeans and a hoodie. Judging from the figure and voice, it should be a man.
"You can actually find me?"
The mysterious man who appeared was a little surprised.
He was obviously a little surprised that Hong Yi could find him.
"Spatial Soul Skill!
Who are you? "
Hong Yi asked. She did not call for help or do anything else.
She glanced at the feathered crown eagle. This silly bird was still hovering in the air and did not notice the arrival of the stranger.
If the silly bird could not find her, it was even more impossible for the other people who were monitoring her.
"You don't seem to be afraid of me?"
Compared to being discovered, the mysterious man was more surprised that the girl was so calm.
"You are so close, is there any use in being afraid?" Hong Yi asked.
"It is indeed useless."
"What do you want to do?"
The mysterious man smiled. "I want to make the demonic beast sealed in your body appear."
"Oh!"
Hong Yi did not show any surprise.
She had guessed it long ago because she was only worth this much.
"You are a foreign race?"
Hong Yi continued to ask, without much fear, and even with a trace of curiosity.
"Why do you ask?
Do I sound like a foreign race? "
The mysterious man did not immediately act, as if waiting for something.
"I can't tell from your voice, but I heard that some foreign races received our education and language from a young age. It is normal that they can't tell!
Other than foreign races, no one dares to do so. "
"Haha."
The mysterious man laughed but did not answer. However, he felt that this girl was very interesting.
He had seen a few spiritualists who were war machines.
Those few people had more or less had some problems with their personalities.
They were either tyrannical and crazy, or cold and bloodthirsty. In any case, they were not normal people. This was the first time he had seen someone as gentle as this girl.
Logically speaking, this girl should be even crazier.
The demonic beast sealed in her body was a novice monk, and this beast would secretly take over the host's body while they were sleeping.
As a result, spiritualists did not dare to fall asleep, as long-term insomnia would cause problems with their temper and mental state.
For this girl to be so gentle, it was amazing if she was not faking it.
"What are you laughing at?"
Hong Yi touched her chubby face and continued to ask, "Is the Shenwu Continent about to invade?"
However, she did not receive any response.
Perhaps it was because it was rare for someone to talk to her, even if this person did not have good intentions, but Hong Yi could not help but ask, "Will I die?"
"Are spiritualists afraid of death?"
Hong Yi's tone seemed to contain a trace of relief and nostalgia. "Not really, but I don't want to die just yet."
She still had her parents and cute little brother. If she died, she would never be able to see them again.
Beep beep beep beep beep …
Just as the two were chatting, an ear-piercing alarm rang throughout the capital.
"Is it about to begin?"
Hong Yi's body trembled when she saw the mysterious person's body move.
Although she was not afraid of death, she still felt some fear at this moment.
After all, she was only an eighteen -year-old girl.
Before she could receive a reply, Hong Yi felt a pair of silver-white eyes appear in front of her. These eyes were like moonlight, and they emitted an enchanting light that gave off a mysterious and bewitching feeling.
She felt a little drowsy, and she could not help but want to fall asleep.
She was afraid of sleeping.
This was because if she slept, the demonic beast in her body might appear.
'Have I been hypnotized?
I can't sleep. If I do, I'll be finished. '
This thought flashed through Hong Yi's mind.
She wanted to resist this drowsiness, but she was powerless. She could only hold on for a few seconds before closing her eyes.
When darkness descended …
"Hehe."
Accompanied by an earth-shattering sinister laugh, a huge figure suddenly appeared. Its entire body was wrapped in a berserk aura, and yellow sand danced in the wind.
As it laughed sinisterly, fine sand kept falling from its body.
It looked a bit like a fox, but it was much more ferocious.
Its body was golden, and it was 13 or 14 meters tall. Its body was stout, with a pointed nose and triangular ears. It had thick and short limbs, and its body was covered with strange violet patterns. There were large black spots on its face that covered its eyes.
The inside of the huge eye was pitch black, and there was a golden pupil in it. Its murderous aura was shocking. It looked up at Crimson Moon and stretched out its huge right claw. In the center of the claw, the flesh continued to sink and rotate. Gradually, a head appeared, and then a body slowly appeared.
That figure was none other than Hong Yi.
The demonic beast opened its bloody mouth and laughed sinisterly. "Hehe, damn brat, you're still alive. I must kill you and all humans!"
