All People's Abyss: My skills are infinitely enhanced

Chapter 1067 Sweep
Because of the issues with the previous censorship, I can only briefly mention it.

-

"This...this is Seimei's power!"

"Yes, it was the young duke who took that blow!"

"Did the young duke steal Seimei's power?"

"Oh no, could it be that he's the one who released Seimei?"

"Are you out of your mind? Did you see that red light? If he really wanted to do this, he would have swallowed everyone inside long ago. There's no need to film it live."

"He saved us and yet people still say that, calling him an ungrateful wretch..."

"..."

Even though it used the same power that Seimei had demonstrated, destroying a warship with a single blow still caused a shockwave.

This means that most of humanity's weapons would probably be ineffective against this young duke!

Once this red ghost realm unfolds, conventional weapons represented by cruise missiles will inevitably become ineffective!
Even with nuclear weapons as a ballast, they seem to be of little use if they can't be used to strike.

A true one-man army!
"If the young duke wanted to, he could probably drain everyone on the warship dry, right?"

"Yes, not long after Seimei appeared, those survivors were already badly injured."

"That was already showing mercy..."

"..."

Without needing any reminders from the comments, the sailors on those magnificent warships didn't hold out for long after witnessing the flagship sink, and they all raised the white flag.

On the public radio screen, a declaration of laying down arms and surrendering was also issued.

Some ships, worried that Tao Yu wouldn't stop, even had their crews rush onto lifeboats and choose to scuttle themselves.

When Tao Yu Gui Yu was deployed, the morale of these beautiful soldiers who had also read the relevant news had already plummeted.

Do they know what the consequences would be after being shrouded in this red demonic realm?

Now that the flagship has sunk, they naturally have no will to resist.

The purpose of the Great Beauty's army was not to defend the country, but to maintain its overseas interests. It was no different from the army of warlords. The morale of many of them even had to be maintained by flour or internal gambling, and the addiction rate was higher than that of the Qing Dynasty.

For many soldiers, the main purpose of joining the army is simply to make money, not to risk their lives.

Faced with an enemy that is impossible to defeat, the only option is naturally to surrender.

However, this time they have already made their move. All the warships that had launched missiles were named one by one and easily torn apart as if they were made of paper!

The extraordinary weaponry, a direct challenge to traditional weapons, was revealed in a blatant live broadcast to the world.

Then they saw Tao Yu and his group riding snake monsters onto a ghost ship, which floated in the air and headed towards the other side of the ocean.

There was no teleportation illusion, nor was it some kind of magic broom; it was simply leaving behind a large target openly and honestly, allowing the entire world to see its movements!
In addition, Tao Yu also directly questioned him remotely during the live broadcast.

“You have all seen what happened before. I have never offended you, yet you knowingly attacked me without warning, knowing that I represent the wizarding world. You must give an explanation for this.”

On the other side, the beautiful person in charge and a group of decision-makers were also speechless as they watched the questioning.

If you hadn't said you wanted to take all the gold, why would we have taken action on our own initiative?

Now it seems like we're the ones in the wrong?

In response, the spokesperson immediately held a press conference to explain their reasons.

In order to avoid damaging the harmony between the two sides, we hope to calm down, sit down and talk, and express our unwillingness to escalate the conflict.

They slap you first, then tell you to calm down and soothe your emotions—that's their usual practice.

Any thought of appeasement will trigger their rhythm, followed by increasingly forceful slaps and even beatings.

However, this time, their usually effective method suddenly stopped working.

"Now you want to talk? When you launched your sneak attack, didn't you consider the possibility that I might not be able to withstand the missiles and something bad might happen to me? There's no such thing as a free lunch..."

Tao Yu looked disappointed during the live stream.
“Originally, I was giving you a chance to apologize and show your sincerity. At a time when the supernatural is gradually making a full-scale comeback, I didn’t want to go on a killing spree. But you didn’t seize this opportunity and are still making excuses. I’m really disappointed in you…”

Tao Yu's reply was also high-sounding and occupied the moral high ground, but Da Piao Liang was speechless when she heard it.

Who knows if that's what you really meant? You're just making it sound nice!

You've said everything, good and bad, what else can I do?

"As a wizard, the young duke may not know enough about us. Our strongest weapons are even enough to destroy the world! It's just that we have always loved peace and rarely use them in war. If you insist on going your own way, we are willing to fight to the end."

The fact that such words of peace came from the mouth of the beautiful spokesperson truly stunned onlookers around the world.

However, what the other party said also caused some concern.

After the five permanent members of the UN Security Council acquired nuclear weapons, the US rarely used nuclear threats as frequently as it did in the 1950s and 60s, and never talked about nuclear bombing all the time.

But no one can deny that the nuclear weapons they possess are indeed the most numerous in the world!

Even if nuclear weapons aren't as exaggerated as rumored, with an 8-magnitude earthquake being equivalent to thousands of nuclear bombs, a large nuclear bomb, if used to bomb densely populated areas, could indeed cause massive casualties worldwide.

"You mean you're going to indiscriminately bomb our wizarding world without even knowing where it is?"

Tao Yu replied from a distance with a somewhat solemn tone.

His serious expression finally put Da Piao Liang's side at ease; it worked!

That would be easy!
"If that's what you want to think, then that's it."

The ambiguous answer still caused a global uproar.

Indiscriminate nuclear bombing?

Even a vague tacit agreement is enough to provoke widespread criticism, and even within Great Britain itself, it has sparked a wave of opposition.

However, for the powerful and influential, suppressing the other party's arrogance was the most important thing, and they withstood all the opposition and pressure.

Tao Yu remained silent for several days, but the ghost ship continued to drift towards the other side of the ocean.

This, in turn, earned her a series of urgings from Da Piao Liang.

"If you come any closer, we'll have to take action."

Even though the ghost ship is still in the Pacific Ocean and in international waters, they are already showing signs of impatience and are absolutely unwilling to let such a dangerous thing approach their territorial waters.

"That's a real shame. It seems there's no point in talking about it."

Just a few days later, when Tao Yu responded again, almost all of Da Piao Liang's nuclear weapons bases simultaneously lost contact.

One wizard after another appeared in those bases, using illusion spells, teleportation, and other techniques that ordinary people could not guard against.

Even on strategic nuclear submarines patrolling the deep sea, traces of wizards suddenly appeared, making them impossible to guard against.

In terms of destructive power alone, wizards are indeed no match for modern firepower, but modern weapons also require human operation.

Once the exact location is found, and various unreasonable spells are used, it is indeed not something that ordinary people can fight against.

but……

"There are also problems at three other bases. They are guarded by demon tamers, and their methods are very troublesome."

Fuji wiped his sweat and sent a contact request to Tao Yu.

This operation involved a combined effort of almost all the world's elite wizards, and they encountered many places guarded by demon tamers.

However, in a few places, the problems were resolved thanks to the special methods of these elite wizards and the gold they possessed.

After all, the Ghost Master has weaknesses; it is not as unsolvable and troublesome as the Ghost. Even ordinary people can have a chance to succeed by using golden bullets to ambush it.

But in three places, the enemy's demon tamers were both alert and powerful. Relying on the suppression of the wizards by the rules, they caused heavy losses to the wizards responsible for attacking those areas...

Even so, it is a fact that the number of nuclear weapons in the hands of the Great Beauty has been sharply reduced.

Because of the psychological issues of the "Demon Drivers," none of them can board nuclear submarines, so the remaining three locations are all ground launch bases.

They're all laid out in plain sight, significantly reducing their threat level.

All of this immediately reached the hands of the top executives at the Grand View Garden, leaving them utterly astonished.

"How is this possible! Almost the entire area has fallen!"

"Where are the Ghost Tamers? We need their protection too!"

"Why...why don't they just attack us directly?"

Upon learning of the attack on the nuclear arsenal, these decision-makers were also extremely alarmed.

However, some people soon noticed that something was wrong.

Why don't they just take action against themselves?

Despite the thorough precautions, the mental stability of the demon tamers is a problem, and there are only a few relatively calm individuals nearby, so it's not certain that they can be completely defended against!

"They think there are demon tamers around us, so they're not making a move, right?"

"Could it be that they're worried about public opinion?"

"Does he seem like someone who's worried about public opinion?"

Ultimately, they concluded that they might have decided to temporarily abandon the idea because they believed their side had a more concentrated concentration of demon-controlling power.

To this end, they specially dispatched more ghost controllers to their side, and even the handling of some strange events has been suspended.

Strange events might only result in the deaths of a few worthless people, nothing compared to the precious lives of us high-ranking officials.

Meanwhile, on the other side, as Tao Yu received Fuji's report, Fuji also cautiously asked...
"Well, I actually think our success rate in raiding their management is quite high, but they'll probably arrange for Ghost Riders to provide protection now."

"If they don't leave anything behind, others won't be able to see their true colors."

If Tao Yu wanted to, she could easily eliminate them all, but dealing with them too cleanly isn't a good thing either. Like now, the art students who failed their exams are practically being whitewashed.

After Tao Yu had the wizards control so much, he didn't broadcast it all live, but instead remained silent as he landed in San Francisco!

As the ghost ship slowly flew over San Francisco, people below looked up and saw the figure carrying an eerie aura.

However, at that very moment, several ballistic missiles streaked across the sky, broke through the atmosphere, and left a dazzling trail of flames as they hurtled toward the ghost ship.

"What is that in the sky?"

A meteor shower?

"It's a missile, isn't it? Keep firing..."

Aren't you afraid of accidentally getting hurt?

"..."

The bystanders in San Francisco who were watching the ghost ship felt a little uneasy, but they also knew that the other side would not attack without reason.

But now that missiles are coming, they might not be able to see anything.

But when the first mushroom cloud exploded high in the sky, everyone who saw it rise into the air was stunned.

It's a nuclear bomb...

And in such a densely populated city?!
Crazy!
Even a small group of people standing close by would be instantly vaporized by pure light.

Black, human-shaped carbonized marks were left on the ground and walls, and nearby buildings looked as if they had been torn apart instantly, like wooden houses under a typhoon.

Further away, the brick walls were also blown away in an instant, leaving only the lonely load-bearing pillars.

The terrifying aftershocks raged, destroying everything in their path!
Without warning or prior notice, the casualties from the single nuclear explosion far exceeded those of the two previous nuclear tests in history.

Apart from a few lucky survivors in the subway station, the area within two kilometers of the nuclear explosion's epicenter was reduced to scorched earth. Further outwards, the casualties were equally heavy. All signals were cut off, and the ghost ships in the sky were completely destroyed by the nuclear bomb.

The Great Britain immediately went into a state of high alert, and the entire country was alerted for a nuclear attack.

The spokesperson also immediately came forward, expressing deep regret and indignation.
"Just now, we received news that most of our nuclear missile bases have been taken over by those evil wizards, and as a result, they have gone so far as to launch a nuclear attack on our city!"

As she spoke, Da Piao Liang took the initiative to produce some surveillance footage from inside the nuclear facility.

The scene showed many wizards waving their wands and controlling the scene, which certainly did not seem like a disguise.

Then came the heart-wrenching condemnation, which was broadcast by numerous media outlets worldwide, bringing the intensity of the public opinion war to its peak.

The Great Beauty has been hit by a nuclear attack, and it was done by the wizards!
Footage and evidence from the scene have already surfaced!

Those who haven't been there can only discern the truth by gathering information through various channels.

Although I was initially skeptical, the footage was undeniable: San Francisco had been subjected to a nuclear attack, and the magnificent base had been captured. It seemed that only wizards could have done this.

"You really have the guts to do that..."

Tao Yu's live stream, which had been interrupted, has reappeared. Although various platforms seem to want to do everything they can to ban it, it seems to have no effect whatsoever.

Even physically disconnecting the server and network won't work.

Tao Yu's live stream continues steadily.

"How is this possible! He's not dead?"

"In the final scene, the ghost ship had already vaporized, so how is it still there?"

"This……"

The politicians who had initially used a self-inflicted injury ruse to frame others were now stunned.

They have actually always had many similar backup plans, such as actively using nuclear weapons and then accusing the post-80s generation of people of using them. These have all been publicly disclosed.

Now that things have come to this point, they have no choice but to take a risky approach.

First, deal with the most troublesome one, and then start gathering the full strength of our allies.

But to everyone's surprise, after the nuclear bomb was used and the losses were incurred, just as they were starting to build momentum, the guy who was supposed to be dead reappeared?
"I was just being cautious and used a magical illusion to arrive, but I never expected you to do something so heinous, and then turn around and blame me afterwards."

Tao Yu stated this as if making a statement.

The next moment, with the flash of Tao Yu's magic wand, he appeared instead at the grand press conference venue.

"I am here simply to tell you that I have a more convenient way to solve this problem, without having to use something as crude as nuclear weapons."

As soon as Tao Yu appeared, several invisible threads seemed to appear out of thin air, connecting to Tao Yu's body as if controlling a puppet, and constantly swaying.

However, they were demon tamers responsible for guarding the area nearby.

"Puppet control? There's some skill involved, but not much."

Tao Yu simply raised his hand and swept it, and the threads broke one by one. He then grabbed the threads and began to control the demon tamer, lifting him up by strangling him.

With a flick of his wrist, Tao Yu subdued the demon tamers here. At the same time, he waved his wand and unleashed a mass spell, "Heart-Piercing Strike," knocking down the henchmen, including the spokesperson, to the ground.

The embellished Crucifixion is far beyond the endurance of ordinary people.

In a short while, yellow and white substances flowed freely, his face was covered in snot and tears, and as he screamed in pain, he began to confess one by one.
"I really didn't know. I just received instructions in advance to come and hold the press conference."

Was the manuscript prepared in advance?

"Yes."

After revealing this to the live broadcast camera, Tao Yu once again appeared in a phantom form.

This time, they appeared at the place where many high-ranking members of the bunker gathered.

Those who had also been watching the live stream finally showed fear in their eyes when they saw Tao Yu appear.

"You can't treat us like this..."

Before they could even finish speaking, the combined effects of the Crucifixion curse sent them sprawling to the ground, convulsing and suffering unbearable inhuman torture.

They then proceeded to explain their entire plan in detail.

Through mutual corroboration and frank confessions, the truth of the matter has been fully revealed to the public.

This also sparked endless anger and disbelief.

"They actually dropped a nuclear bomb on their own territory and framed someone else?"

"frenzied!"

"This is inhumane!"

"Execute them!"

"Everyone connected to this must die!"

"..."

This shock has truly shattered the heavens; in their eyes, human lives are nothing more than numbers that can be sacrificed at any time.

When you need votes, she's all sweethearts; once she's used up, she's all bitter old hags, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Now it's being used directly as a consumable in a self-inflicted injury scheme.

True disgrace and ruin, never to recover.

Conversely, Tao Yu's reappearance swiftly resolved the root of the problem, preventing further losses and once again propelling his reputation to its peak.

At the same time, retrieving that 10,000 tons of gold would be much simpler...

……

Regardless of the chaos across the ocean and everything happening online, on this side of the East, it's all just pure gossip.

Whether it's bombing or nuclear explosion, wherever there is turmoil or famine, it's all just gossip for netizens at Dongda University.

This time, however, the scandal is truly enormous.

A nuclear explosion occurred, and then the magnificent [something] exploded and reassembled on the spot?

These major news items all stemmed from the young duke of the wizarding world.

Dachang No. 7 Middle School.

"Sigh, I wonder when he'll come to our area. Lately, there have been more and more strange occurrences in our neighborhood."

While watching the video, Zhang Wei grumbled to Yang Jian beside him, "What are you eating?"

The eeriness is becoming more and more obvious, and things that have happened nearby can no longer be hidden.

"Who knows? Maybe there are some weird ways of spreading information online..."

Yang Jian seemed a little absent-minded at this moment. Last night, he saw a video online, a video of a ghost knocking on the door.

That thumping sound was so eerie.

Now that some strange information has emerged, he vaguely suspects that this may be a bizarre event.

Although the video was quickly deleted, he remained worried.

"Don't worry, there are some people from a special department who came to give us a lesson on how to guard against the supernatural today. I think the problem will be solved. Look how fast that little duke can deal with the supernatural."

Zhang Wei, in turn, comforted Yang Jian.

Someone will be coming to the school today to give a special lecture.

Although they already knew about some strange things in advance, the students in the vicinity felt both terrified and excited.

For high school students, events happening across the ocean have a less significant impact than their classes.

What's more, this is happening right here in my neighborhood, a lecture given by a special department that deals with the bizarre...
