"boom!!!"
With this earth-shattering bang, Mebius knew that this incident would end in a fight to the death.
She did not stop it. Even if she did, the attackers would have a backup plan. Even if she stopped them all, there would be other reasons and excuses.
"What started? What happened?"
Velvet was confused, but then she received news of the attack.
"Peace, over"
The hall where the Eden concert was held, or rather the ruins.
With blood all over her face, Alicia struggled to push away the building debris on her body.
She looked at everything in front of her in a daze. Her muscle memory mechanically used the Honkai energy to heal herself according to the first aid methods taught by Mebius. She felt very painful, but Alicia seemed to be stupid, with dull eyes.
She looked up and saw devastation everywhere. The entire hall had been completely reduced to countless debris. There were no human corpses around because they had been completely turned into powder. This incredibly powerful explosion not only blew the hall to pieces, but also killed almost tens of thousands of people in the hall. The terrifying shock wave swept across, leaving only the slightest trace of human beings, not even ashes.
Outside the guild hall, several high-rise buildings collapsed directly due to the impact of the explosion, and a large number of buildings were directly blown to pieces. Hundreds of buildings of all sizes around the guild hall completely collapsed. As for the death toll, it was impossible to count.
The only ones who survived were Alicia and Aponia, Padu, and Lamia, whom she had taken under her shelter.
At the moment of the explosion, the people that Alicia was protecting were not only them, but also dozens or thousands of ordinary people around. However, the Honkai energy shield that Alicia temporarily maintained could not withstand the explosion at all. Alicia could only shrink gradually, and finally protected about ten people before her Honkai energy was exhausted. However, immediately afterwards, there was the wreckage of the building falling from the sky after the explosion.
When Alicia woke up, this is what she saw.
Alicia found Aponia, Padu and Lamia still alive in the surrounding ruins.
Aponia was protected in time by Alicia, but the area below her abdomen was completely crushed into a meat paste by the rubble of the building. Pado was hugged by Lamia and seemed to be fine, but she and Lamia were both buried under the rubble of the building.
Alicia staggered as she treated Aponia, and then she discovered that not only was Aponia's lower body crushed into a paste, but the shock wave of the explosion also caused very serious damage to her internal organs. If Aponia had not undergone genetic enhancement surgery and had Alicia's protection, Aponia would have died long ago.
Suddenly, Alicia's Honkai energy was exhausted. She wanted to continue treating Aponia, but the Honkai energy in her body only came out drop by drop, and it was impossible to provide effective treatment.
"My...my...Houkai...power, my...Houkai power?"
The disheveled Alicia murmured softly. She knew that she was a Herrscher. Dr. Mobius once told her that she was a natural Herrscher and the Herrscher of Origin, and that Honkai energy would never be lacking.
But why is the Honkai energy exhausted...
Then Alicia remembered that Dr. Mobius had also said that the prerequisite was to develop one's own Herrscher power and know how to extract Honkai energy. Otherwise, it would be like using a straw to extract water from the ocean. Even if there was a lot of Honkai energy, there would still be only a limited amount of Honkai energy that could be used. If a large amount of Honkai energy was used up suddenly, it would be "exhausted" and the Honkai energy could only be extracted bit by bit.
"...I..." Alicia's long pink hair was covered with dust, her gorgeous dress was badly damaged, blood was still dripping from her face, and she no longer looked like the confident and charming fairy lady she once was. Her cloudy blue eyes looked towards the center of the concert stage. It should have been a gorgeous stage, but now it had turned into a ruin where nothing could be seen.
The singer who was playing his favorite song on the stage had long been destroyed in the explosion. Alicia saw it with her own eyes. She saw it clearly. She saw Eden being turned into a bloody mist by the explosion without realizing it. Every piece of flesh and every bone gradually turned into bloody mist in Alicia's eyes, and the bloody mist was instantly dispersed, leaving no trace.
Explosions like this actually posed no threat to Alicia herself. When she was receiving instruction from Dr. Mobius, Alicia had seen how Dr. Mobius used his Herrscher power to crush even more powerful explosions into a ball with his bare hands, controlling everything produced by the explosion and then eliminating it.
Dr. Mebius also demonstrated her ability to form a shield of Honkai energy to trap the explosion, and the amount of Honkai energy she used was very low.
So what were you doing at that time?
Alicia recalled what happened at that time. Ah, she was chatting with Eden on her mobile phone. She only wrote down the techniques of how to use Honkai energy, and she didn't practice much.
She was not interested in these things, because in Alicia's eyes, this was not a good look at all. Learning to control Honkai energy was already tiring, and it was enough to be able to use the Herrscher's power, and there was no need to continue learning in depth.
Dr. Mobius also advised her to study hard and understand her Herrscher power, but Alicia felt that she was not cut out for learning and gave up easily.
"..."
Alicia's tears slowly fell and she collapsed to the ground.
She regretted giving up in the first place. She regretted not working harder to research and understand her own powers. Even if it was just to gain a more refined and in-depth control over Honkai energy, it would have been great.
"..."
She burst into tears.
Chapter 227 It’s safe here...right?
"This terrorist attack has caused the deaths of a large number of people in City S. The death toll is estimated to be in the tens of thousands, and the number of people affected is approximately hundreds of thousands. The attack also resulted in the deaths of three cabinet ministers and senior officials from some countries. The losses are incalculable. The Supreme Leader of Mu Continent has declared a national state of emergency..."
"All my family members are dead..."
"Some of the attackers who escaped have been arrested. They are not from Mu Continent and have confessed to being from the North American Federation! There is no further information..."
"In view of this attack! We have no choice! We can only use all our weapons to protect the people of Mu Continent!"
"Judgment is coming!"
The terrorist attack at the Eden concert in Mu Continent shocked the whole world. No one expected that someone could be so crazy, and more importantly, some of the attackers were caught by Mu Continent.
Mu Continent took this opportunity to formally request the North American Federation to cooperate in the investigation, find out the mastermind behind the attack, and hand him over to Mu Continent for trial.
The North American Federation naturally denied it flatly and instead accused Mu Continent of directing and acting out the incident. Everyone in Mu Continent was furious. In addition, the contradictions between the two countries have become increasingly acute over the years, and netizens from the two countries have directly engaged in a war of words on the Internet. In addition, diplomatic press conferences and negotiations between the two governments have been held one after another.
Meetings were held again and again at the United Nations, but to no avail. No matter what proposal was put forward, it was vetoed by Mu Continent or the North American Federation.
Major powers such as China and the European Union are calling on Mu Continent and the North American Federation to remain calm and restrained.
However, a month after the Eden attack, diplomatic press conferences between the two countries became less frequent, negotiations continued, and both seemed to have calmed down.
However, the two countries have already begun evacuating their citizens.
……
In the affiliated hospital of the Infinite Lighthouse Research Base, Mebius came to the ward where Alicia was. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Pado trying to talk to Alicia, but Alicia didn't pay any attention and sat on the bed in a daze.
"Snake Sister" Paddo waved to Mebius after seeing him. Paddo was protected by Alicia and Lamia during the attack. Although her internal injuries were also serious, she could be saved by Mebius as long as she was not dead. The body used by Lamia was also seriously damaged, but it was easier to repair.
Mebius nodded and looked at Alicia.
In fact, Alicia was not injured. The explosion was so powerful that it did not cause any injuries to Alicia, but it dealt a great blow to her heart.
"Dr. Mobius" Alicia raised her head, her delicate face full of haggardness.
"Is it really impossible..."
She looked at Mebius pleadingly.
Padu scratched her head in embarrassment. Alicia would ask this question every time she saw Mebius these days.
Alicia wants to revive Eden.
"I have nothing to do with Eden, and I can't do it," Mebius said lightly.
Eden is just an ordinary singer to Mebius. He is a friend of Alicia, but not a friend of Mebius. Without the outbreak of the Great Disaster, Eden has always been just an ordinary person.
As for asking Mebius to resurrect Eden, Mebius was too lazy to do it, and it was difficult to actually resurrect him.
Truly resurrecting Eden is not a problem, the prerequisite is to find Eden's soul, but Mebius can't find where Eden's soul has gone.
Therefore, the resurrected Eden is essentially just another person with Eden's memories, and Alicia can also perceive this.
In fact, Alicia could feel in her heart that Eden was really dead and it was impossible for him to be resurrected.
During the few days she stayed in the ward, Alicia kept blaming herself. If only she had listened carefully to Mebius's teachings before, there would be so many things that the power of the Herrscher could do. Even resurrecting Eden and resurrecting tens of thousands of dead people would be easy.
The power of the Herrscher of Origin can do it, but Alicia cannot.
"I...can't do anything..."
Alicia fell into self-blame again.
Pado didn't know how to comfort Alicia. Pado had also undergone genetic enhancement surgery, and her adaptability to Honkai energy was very high. No matter what she did, she could achieve great success. But over the years, she was actually the same as Alicia, always holding the cognition and attitude that her own strength was enough.
A peaceful environment of leisure, comfort, wealth and happiness makes it difficult for people to have the idea of working hard.
Pardo had never expected such an attack to happen.
"Now, an urgent news interruption. Mu Continent diplomats have officially issued an ultimatum to the North American Federation, demanding that all the murderers and masterminds behind the Eden incident be handed over within 24 hours."
"The Mu Continent Cabinet has announced that if no definitive response is received within 24 hours, all armed forces of the Mu Continent will be formally mobilized to declare war on the North American Federation."
Suddenly, an urgent news broadcast came on the TV in the ward.
"Sister Snake, what are you doing?"
Padu was stunned after hearing the news.
Going to war?
"It's okay, it's safe here." Mebius was not surprised by the news.
The conflict between Mu Continent and the North American Federation is the most acute. The Eden incident, which was the attack at the previous Eden concert, directly brought the conflict between the two countries to the surface.
Mu Continent's technological progress has left other countries far behind, and it controls the output of the almost omnipotent Honkai energy. Mu Continent is already planning to build a base on the moon or a satellite colony in space.
But Mu Continent does not play with other countries. It has always developed research and explored space independently. In recent years, Mu Continent has withdrawn from scientific and technological research organizations among various countries. Conducting scientific and technological exchanges with various countries is almost equivalent to Mu Continent unilaterally teaching people from other countries.
Due to the existence of the Infinite Lighthouse Society, Mu Continent has always attached great importance to the development of science and technology. The proportion of scientific researchers has been increasing. The knowledge reserves of many Mu Continent people are already considered scientists in other countries. Coupled with the genetic enhancement technology that has been promoted, the people of Mu Continent are becoming smarter and smarter. The children born in Mu Continent in recent years are much smarter than children in other countries.
There is a very obvious communication gap between the people of Mu Continent and people from other countries, because people from other countries cannot understand the content of the conversations between the people of Mu Continent at all.
This has led many people on Mu Continent to increasingly look down on humans from other countries.
Intellectuals from other countries are trying their best to obtain the citizenship of Mu Continent. The air in Mu Continent is sweet. Uh, very advanced air purification devices have indeed been keeping the air in major cities in Mu Continent clean.
The research base where the Infinite Lighthouse Society is located is the most important place in Mu Continent, and a special army is set up to defend it.
This place has always been heavily guarded and very safe, and there is basically no possibility of any danger...
Mebius suddenly raised his brows.
Chapter 228 ah?
"Dr. Mobius! Radar detected more than fifty missiles flying towards the research base! The base defense force is implementing air defense procedures." Buyer's emergency communication suddenly came.
"Notify all personnel at the base to evacuate immediately and hide in the safe zone," Mebius quickly ordered.
"Pado, take Alicia to the safe zone as well," she then said to the stunned Pado, then turned and left the hospital.
"Oh, okay." Padu immediately came back to his senses and looked at Mebius's back.
Alicia was still stunned. The war among humans... had broken out.
When she and Paddo left the ward, they saw the nurse from the next ward pushing out Aponya, who was sitting in a wheelchair and had not yet recovered.
If Aponya, whose lower body was crushed, were in other places, she would have been dead, or would have had her lower body amputated and become disabled.
However, Mebius re-grew the missing body part for Aponia and then connected it. It only takes a period of recovery for Aponia to become a normal person again, or the lower body can be completely replaced by prosthetics, and all functions can be the same as those of a normal person, and the appearance cannot be seen.
"Sister Aponya, let's go quickly." Pado pulled Alicia while she and the nurse pushed Aponya's wheelchair.
Alicia saw that everyone in the hospital looked very panicked, but also extremely indignant. Buyer had also informed everyone here about the attack on the base.
This is a hospital, and the Infinite Lighthouse Research Base, which is affiliated with the hospital, is just a research base! Why attack here?! The death of a single researcher here would be a significant loss to human civilization!
All the doctors and nurses in the hospital were urgently evacuating patients from the underground passage of the hospital.
Alicia followed the crowd all the way to the underground safe area, where there were some emergency medical equipment. Doctors and nurses quickly set up a temporary hospital to take care of the patients who followed.
Fortunately, the patients were hospitalized due to various external injuries. As for internal injuries, the people of Mu Continent have completely gotten rid of the troubles of most diseases and do not need to worry about the problem of disease at all.
"Those North Americans are so damned stupid. They actually attacked here directly."
"They've already killed so many people, and now they're going to attack the research base. Do they really think our Mu Continent is made of clay? Even clay figures can still have some temper! This time, we must teach the North Americans a lesson!"
"Don't worry, the base's defenses are definitely good, so we shouldn't be in any trouble. But we do need to give the Yankees a beating. With our ten aircraft carrier battle groups, any fleet can easily overwhelm the Yankee fleet. We must teach them a lesson!"
"Yeah, screw the Yankees! Damn it! Those guys are just like monkeys that haven't fully evolved yet. They're stupid and dumb, and they stink worse than pigs!"
"Okay, I understand everyone's anger, but there are more important things to do right now. We may need to stay here for a few days. I've already contacted the defense forces, and they'll bring some food and water, but we also need to be prepared and get some emergency supplies from the hospital."
In the safe zone, everyone was denouncing indignantly.
Alicia was watching the news on her mobile phone. Since her authority was very high in Buyer, the information control implemented by Mu Continent could not interfere with Alicia. She also saw the situation in various parts of Mu Continent at that time.
Mu Continent was attacked suddenly. Most of the incoming missiles were intercepted, but some missiles broke through the air defense system and fell into the cities of Mu Continent. These missiles were equipped with high-energy explosives and were extremely powerful. The damage and casualties caused by the explosion were extremely high.
Many of these missiles were not aimed at military targets, but fell directly into the city's high-rise buildings, purely for the purpose of massacring civilians on Mu Continent.
"Eden..."
Alicia clenched her hands, her blue eyes filled with anger. After seeing the explosion, she recognized it as the same type of explosion that occurred at the Eden concert.
"Aili" Aponya looked at Ailishia with some worry, as she was emitting a low pressure all over her body.
"I'm going out for a while, I want to know who it is"
Alicia suddenly said that she was very angry now.
Aponia and Padu both looked at Alicia. They did not try to dissuade her, nor could they find any reason to do so.
