From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 99 Nickname: "Shipbreaker"

When the two ships were chasing each other, there were surveillance devices on the ships that were recording the footage and transmitting it in real time via satellite signals.

Therefore, what happened to this Java gunboat has been transmitted to the outside world in real time.

Things have developed to this point, and it is impossible to completely block the news.

on the sky.

Lu Heng held onto the scout eagle's claws, suspended in mid-air, and looked down at the tilted Javan ship below.

Since the reconnaissance eagle was in invisible mode, it looked like Lu Heng was hovering alone in the sky, looking down at the group of squeaking ants below.

Captain Java, who had arrogantly threatened to sink the Universal just a moment ago, was now grabbing the bulkhead in fear, shouting for help.

Just now, Lu Heng's sword fell from the sky and split the ship into two pieces with one sword.

Such a terrifying divine power had already frightened him out of his wits.

Lu Heng asked loudly: "Do we need to go on board for inspection?"

In the bridge, the Javanese captain clasped his hands together as if praying and yelled something incoherently.

The short mutant who had been urging the Java captain to fire immediately knelt down and begged for mercy: "We were wrong. We don't dare to do it again."

Lu Heng asked again: "Now, can we go?"

Captain Java listened to the translation by the man next to him, nodded quickly, and begged for mercy, just wanting to send Lu Heng away quickly.

……

After subduing the Javanese captain, Lu Heng returned to the Huanyu and set off for home.

On the way back, Lu Heng took out two crystal cores, one was the [High-level Energy Crystal Core], and the other was the [Exoskeleton Armor] skill crystal core.

[High-level energy crystal core] cannot be used continuously, so Lu Heng took out this crystal core and distributed it.

As soon as Lin Zeyu saw the data of the crystal core, he immediately chose [High-level Energy Crystal Core].

Lu Heng and Su Muyu took the [Exoskeleton Armor] crystal core.

In terms of the value of crystal cores, the value of [High-level Energy Crystal Core] is much higher.

However, this distribution plan is equivalent to Lin Zeyu and his subordinates' psychics dividing this [High-level Energy Crystal Core] together. As for how they divide it internally, Lu Heng doesn't care.

Lin Zeyu must have his own ways to make his subordinates work for him.

During this hunt for the Corpse Bird, Lu Heng obtained the Swordsman source and the weapon of the Blood Sword Demon.

It can be said that he made a lot of money.

Lin Zeyu was also very satisfied, because he was upgraded when he killed the corpse bird, and after absorbing the [High-level Energy Crystal Core], he was upgraded to another level.

I got promoted two levels during this trip.

If he led a team to hunt demons himself, he might not be able to level up even after two or three kills.

He finally discovered that as long as he followed Lu Heng, his level would soar like a rocket.

……

A day later, Huanyu returned to the coastal anchorage area.

As soon as he got ashore and returned to a place with cell phone signal, Lu Heng's cell phone kept ringing.

When I picked it up, I saw that my phone was about to blow up. There were dozens of missed calls, all from my parents.

Lu Heng was just about to call back, but before he could finish, his phone rang again.

As soon as the call was connected, my mother's voice came from the phone:
"Son, is that you? Did you answer the phone? How are you now? Say something..."

"I'm fine, don't be nervous." Lu Heng quickly comforted his mother.

This time we went out to sea, there was only satellite signal on the high seas, and we could only make calls using the satellite phone on the yacht, so it was not very convenient.

On the return voyage, I went into the cabin and fell asleep, thinking that I would soon be home.

I didn't expect that my parents would be so anxious during my sleep.

Li Xiuyun heard her son's voice, exhaled heavily, and said, "You scared us to death. Where are you now? Are you not hurt?"

"I just got off the boat. I feel fine. I'll take a taxi back later." Lu Heng replied.

"What's going on with you at sea? What happened?" Li Xiuyun asked hurriedly.

"Nothing." Lu Heng pretended he knew nothing.

"There's a video going viral online right now. I heard it was uploaded from a foreign website called Facebook, such a crappy website name. You appeared in the video, and many people said you were fighting with a warship. What's going on?" Li Xiuyun said in an anxious tone.

After hearing this, Lu Heng was stunned and didn't know how to explain it.

There is definitely no mobile phone signal on the high seas, but there are satellite signals. Advanced large ships will have satellite communication equipment and can use the Internet.

In fact, when we were chasing the Java ship, we already knew that the ship's surveillance equipment was recording and transmitting the images in real time.

Therefore, the news of this conflict with the Java gunboats could not be concealed.

However, Lu Heng did not expect that the video would be uploaded to the Internet.

While talking on the phone.

Su Muyu took out her phone, searched for the video, clicked it and handed it to Lu Heng.

The video was not very clear, but you could see a figure flashing in the sky, and then a sword beam slashing down.

Immediately afterwards, the video camera began to shake violently, and one could vaguely see that the camera was tilted and the side of the ship was broken.

Due to the long distance, the figure captured is not clear, and if you are not an acquaintance, you may not be able to recognize it.

However, parents can recognize their children by looking at their backs. The clarity of this video is enough for them to recognize Lu Heng.

Lu Heng still laughed it off and said, "Mom, what are you talking about? Did you recognize the wrong person?"

"What do you mean you got the wrong person? You've been like this since you were a child. You laugh when you tell a lie. Go home quickly." Li Xiuyun kept muttering on the phone.

Lu Heng agreed repeatedly, then found an excuse to hang up the phone.

"I have to go home quickly. I don't know how the video at sea was uploaded to the Internet." "What should we do now? Will there be any trouble?" Su Muyu frowned, looking a little nervous.

"Don't worry, the other party fired first, we were just defending ourselves..."

Lu Heng waved at Lin Zeyu and called him over: "Did you know about the online video?"

Lin Zeyu had received the message and had been on the phone just now. He nodded and replied, "I know, don't worry, I can handle it."

Lu Heng wasn't that worried in the first place, so after a few simple words, everyone went home.

As soon as he returned home, Lu Heng was taken away by his mother to check whether he was back safely.

After checking, Li Xiuyun took out her phone, played the video, and asked, "This person in the sky, this is it, is this you?"

“You can recognize this battle-damaged image quality?” Lu Heng complained.

"Don't try to lie. I've raised you for almost twenty years, including the time you were in your mother's womb. How could you not recognize me? Tell me quickly, what happened? How did you clash with a foreign ship? Why is the situation so serious? Will someone come to arrest you?"

Li Xiuyun has thought about various possibilities and has come up with various solutions: "I have discussed with your father. If someone comes to arrest you, you should run to the countryside and hide for a while."

Lu Heng was a little speechless, and spread his hands and said, "Mom, don't be so nervous. The other side attacked first, we are defending ourselves, no one will come to arrest us."

Moreover, during the chase, the Huanyu also raised the national flag.

Seeing the flag of the Xia Kingdom, the other side still dared to chase and shoot. In this case, even if the other side's ship was sunk, no one could say anything.

……

As the Abyss Invasion enters its fourth month, the combat power of the top psychics has become increasingly stronger.

Demons appearing all over the world require powerful people with special abilities to fight against them.

This has led to a rapid improvement in the status of people with special abilities.

This is different from mutants. The mutant world does not have the crisis of abyss invasion, which leads to class conflicts between mutants and ordinary people.

A month or two ago, conflicts did arise between people with special abilities and ordinary people around the world, and there were even cases where religious countries wanted to burn people with special abilities to death.

However, as more and more abyss monsters appear around the world, ordinary people are threatened by demons, but people with special powers can fight against demons.

This leads to ordinary people needing protection from people with special powers, which invisibly puts people with special powers and ordinary people on the same side.

Social contradictions are a strange thing. When there are external enemies, internal contradictions will quickly disappear.

There are even countries that launch wars or proxy wars in order to divert internal conflicts.

Now, the invasion of the abyss is an external contradiction, and it is a fierce external contradiction, with no room for reconciliation.

Therefore, the conflict between people with special abilities and ordinary people soon disappeared.

As the status of psychics is improved, powerful psychics can receive preferential treatment from countries around the world.

Therefore, starting from the fourth month after the abyss descends, top psychics will gradually show their strength and gain more say.

Lu Heng also knew this, so he dared to take action even though he knew he would be captured by surveillance equipment.

However, Lu Heng did not expect that the Java authorities would directly put the video on foreign websites and try to condemn it through public opinion.

On the way back, Lu Heng had already read the public opinions on the Internet on his mobile phone.

The entire Internet is discussing this topic now, and a meme called "Ship Destroyer" has emerged.

The whole network is asking a question:
"Who is this 'Shipbreaker'? Is he human?"

"It looks quite human, could it be a demon that looks like a human?"

"It is indeed the 'Ship Destroyer'. With one strike of the sword, the warship was destroyed."

"Are the current superpowers so powerful? This is too powerful!"

"Does anyone know who this 'Shipbreaker' is? I'd pay a lot for the information."

"This person seems to be one of my classmates."

"Is 'Shipbreaker' a class? Can anyone tell me if there is such a class?"

Starting from this topic, many netizens began to DIY the Psychic Class online:
"Second class 'Shipbreaker', class ability, anti-ship attack +50%."

"It's obviously fake. How can it only increase the attack by 50%? One sword can cut a warship in half, so it must increase by 500% at least."

"It's still conservative. I think 5000% is promising."

"Is it possible that this skill is not specifically for anti-ship attacks?"

"Does anyone know what ship was cut off?"

"This question is simple. A Javanese maritime patrol gunboat is 45 meters long and 8 meters wide. It is equipped with a 30mm shipborne anti-aircraft gun. If it is used to attack a ship, one shot will also make a big hole."

As public opinion fermented, unknown forces began to appear online to guide public opinion.

"This psychic definitely has an antisocial personality. He openly attacked a foreign ship on the high seas. He should be brought to a military court for trial."

"Yes, I just saw someone recognize him. This is a supernatural being from a big Eastern country."

"The Eastern country's government has done nothing, allowing this dangerous supernatural being to flourish abroad."

"The people of a certain Eastern country are blessed. They have such a dangerous superpower around them. What's the difference between them and the devil?"

"I have reason to suspect that this Xia country supernatural being is a traitor. Traitors know everything."

Public opinion began to show signs of being manipulated.

Lin Zeyu originally wanted to rest for two days when he returned home, but he didn't expect someone to cause trouble.

He asked someone to send out the video of the Javan ships chasing the Huanyu. The video clearly recorded that the Javan gunboat fired the first shot, and at the end of the video, a close-up of the bullet holes in the hull was added.

As soon as this video was released, it began to go viral on major online platforms.

Public opinion began to form two camps, one of which began to condemn the Javanese ships for chasing the Xia yacht on the high seas.

The other camp, which is good at remote farming, continues to distort the facts in an attempt to guide public opinion.

The two public opinion camps started arguing online, and the war became more and more intense.
