Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

But at this moment, a sharp sound was heard at hand.

The red alarm sounded, and a three-digit communication number lit up on the cell phones of all the staff members of the Changye Division.

The number is 114!

Zhou Liu stood up solemnly, immediately dropped all the files and rushed out the door.

"Call everyone here!"

"Everyone except those on business trips!"

Zhou Liu gritted his teeth, the cat ears on his head twirled unconsciously, and his tail stood on end.

Everything showed her nervousness.

Because this numbered communication is sent by the Observatory, only the Observatory has this authority, and the Observatory never sends messages without a purpose.

The number 1 at the beginning means that this is the disaster ranked first among national hazards, namely the large-scale activities in the shadow world!

The second number 1 means that it is already in an overflow state and is spreading toward the surrounding area.

The third number 4 means that its danger level is level four.

The three numbers clearly illustrate a fact.

There are signs of active shadow world activities in Nanling City, and it is in an overflowing state. If it is allowed to develop, a subsidence area may appear!

At present, it is just erosion and spreading, and no subsidence has occurred. Once subsidence begins, it will be difficult to rescue the entire area, so it must be resolved before that.

But Zhou Liu would naturally be nervous. It had only been a few years since she became the captain of the Changye Division. She had no experience in dealing with the shadow world, and the current Changye Division did not have enough staff.

She immediately said to the staff on duty: "Send the message and ask for help from the superiors!"

She put on the dark uniform of the Changye Division and said, "Call the elite soldiers in the brigade and set off within ten minutes."

Chapter 232 Limited Time Summer Event

"Citizens, please do not approach the area north of Nanling City."

"Please stay safe, stay with your loved ones as much as possible, and don't go out casually."

Propaganda vehicles traveled through the streets and alleys.

The propaganda machine in Nanling City is running at full capacity.

Bai Yu woke up in the morning to these echoing sounds.

He initially thought there would be some chaos, but the entire neighborhood and the entire street were very calm.

As part of the disaster, the shadow world is actually not something that everyone should be surprised about, even if they are not used to it.

It's like a lightning that strikes randomly. If you're lucky, it won't hit your head. But if it really strikes you, crying and making a fuss will be of no use.

Stay at home, lock the doors and windows, wait for Chang Ye Si to deal with this matter, or... wait for the notice to evacuate, just like Xujia Town was swallowed by the ghost.

However, Nanling City has a permanent population of more than two million, and including the floating population, it is a full three million, which can be considered a slightly weaker fifth-tier city.

It is impossible to watch it fall into the shadow world. This is not a border area, and the higher-ups will not sit idly by and watch it become a settlement area.

If you have to say, it’s nothing more than the speed and efficiency of processing.

It may take a few days at the fastest and several months at the slowest.

So life goes on as usual.

After breakfast, Shang Ming'e made a phone call, then hung up and said, "Your father went to that area with the people from Changyesi to investigate the overflow of the Shadow World."

"Father?" Su Ruoli was puzzled: "Isn't he a civilian?"

"But he's also one of the experts in Shadow World research." Shang Ming'e wasn't nervous, but still a little worried. "Many of his research results are related to the Shadow World. He's originally engaged in applied technology. Chang Ye Si's request this time is something he can't refuse. Cases of Shadow World activation are too rare in the mainland."

Su Ruoli didn't care about these things. She asked, "Is there any danger?"

She touched the sword at her waist: "Do you need me to go to my father's side?"

"About this point..." Shang Ming'e hesitated. "Your father doesn't want you to go. It doesn't make sense for a daughter to protect her father. But it's up to you to make the decision."

Su Ruoli stroked the hilt of Chu Yao's sword with her fingers, and was a little hesitant for a moment. Going might cause trouble for her father. Although it was for protection, it was not clear how long this would last.

ding dong~ ding dong~

At this time, the doorbell rang outside the door.

"I'll do it." Bai Yu put his hand on the door handle and opened the door. The moment he saw the person coming, he immediately pulled the door back and tried to close it.

But a hand grabbed the door handle and half a leg was stuffed in.

"Why do you close the door when you see me?"

An indignant voice came from outside the door.

"You're such a sticky plaster, you won't let go!" Bai Yu tried to pry her fingers apart.

After tugging at each other for half a minute, they still let her in.

Mu Yaoxi was dressed much more exquisitely than yesterday, standing tall and graceful, like a lady from a noble family.

"Nice to meet you, aunt." Mu Yaoxi politely introduced herself to Shang Ming'e and explained her purpose. "I'm Mu Yaoxi, registered at the White Tiger Hall of the Divine Martial Division and a true disciple of the Martial Saint Pavilion. I'm from the capital. My original intention in coming here this time was to invite your two children to join the Divine Martial Division."

She is still determined and stubborn.

Trying to save the country through Shang Ming'e, usually parents do not expect their children to become useful.

Unfortunately, Mu Yaoxi's words had no effect on Shang Ming'e. She easily evaded the question, and her words implied "Respect the child's choice. My family is a laissez-faire family."

Mu Yaoxi was speechless for a moment. She thought that the two of them had received elite education, but when she came in and took a look, she realized that these were simply weird things that grew up in the wild, and their appearance was amazing.

She wanted it more!

With the help of these two people, why worry about the rise of White Tiger Hall?

However, she also knew that she couldn't force it. If they didn't join sincerely, they might not choose the White Tiger Hall where she was.

Mu Yaoxi immediately changed the subject: "I heard about the Shadow World overflow in Nanling City on my way here. Although I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I also heard some of your conversation outside the door."

Su Ruoli was in a state of distraught and asked bluntly, "What do you want to say?"

Mu Yaoxi said without hesitation: "What I mean is, since you are worried about your father's safety and it is inconvenient for you to go there yourself, why not leave it to me?"

"You?" Shang Ming'e warned, "Little girl, it's very dangerous there."

"Don't worry." Mu Yaoxi raised the corner of his lips and patted his chest confidently: "I also have the bloodline of the innate heroic spirit!"

Shang Ming'e thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "No wonder I said the name sounded familiar. Could it be that you are..."

"Yes, I am." Mu Yaoxi is still a young man, and he couldn't help showing a bit of pride.

"You must be the innate heroic spirit who was defeated by Xiao Yujing." Shang Ming'e added the second half of the sentence at this time.

Mu Yaoxi's smile froze, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she was obviously not convinced, but she had no way to refute it, because losing was a fact, even if she didn't give her all.

This matter will get out sooner or later, ruining her undefeated record and also making Bai Yu famous.

But if these two people were dragged into the White Tiger Hall, what would the small loss of fame mean?

After all, she is born with the blood of a heroic spirit, and as long as she is alive, she is destined to be better than the Martial Saint.

This request initiated by Mu Yaoxi was somewhat unexpected, and Bai Yu and Su Ruoli also looked at each other in blank dismay.

Instead, it was Qin Xuezao who made the first decision. She said it bluntly, "It's fine to let her go. She just wants to atone for her mistakes and make up for yesterday's disrespect. Besides... as a member of the Divine Martial Division, she has the responsibility to help the Changye Division quell the overflow of the Shadow World. Letting her stay would only make her eat and drink for free and cause more trouble."

In just a few words, Mu Yaoxi's initiative to show goodwill was downgraded to an active apology. The last sentence also lightly stung Mu Yaoxi. Even if the deal didn't go through in the end, she couldn't stay with such a thick face to avoid making herself unhappy.

Bai Yu secretly gave a thumbs up behind her back...Senior Qin is worthy of you, your sharp tongue is still amazing.

Qin Xuezhao was not very proud of this. The reason why she spoke so harshly and Su Ruoli and Bai Yu could not say anything was simply because she had lived in a bad environment since she was a child. She was despised and kicked around by her relatives. People with happy families would not be so sharp at all because they had never experienced such a thing.

Sure enough, Mu Yaoxi could only embarrassingly say 'Yes, that's what I thought' after listening.

Having said that, there is naturally nothing more to say.

With Mu Yaoxi helping to look after Su Haoran's safety, the mother and daughter felt relieved.

The strength of the innate heroic spirit is still guaranteed, and Mu Yaoxi should also have masters accompanying him.

Her status is very important, so it is unlikely that she came alone.

With the appeal of the Shenwu Division, if we can find more experts, dealing with this invasion should be easy and straightforward.

That's what everyone thinks.

Including Mu Yaoxi... She also thought that an invasion of the shadow world was no big deal, and the danger level was not very high, only level four.

It will definitely be done in Beijing within three days, and here it should be resolved within a week at most.

Then, a day passed.

The area of the Shadow World overflowing is still increasing, having doubled compared to the day before, and the situation is rapidly deteriorating.

……

【Limited time summer event has started】

[Actively participate in this event to receive summer appearances, limited-edition costumes, special items, destiny points, exclusive relics, and other rewards. Don't miss out!]

Bai Yu: "?"

Limited time event. I had a bad feeling when I saw this thing.

What will the strategy be this time? An infinite pool of bosses? Or a globally shared number of boss strategies?

He hesitated for a fraction of a second before clicking on the introduction to the summer event.

[Nanling City recently had an unexpected incident involving the invasion of the Shadow World, which disrupted all the original summer activities]

[To uphold love and justice, and to protect world peace, let's put an end to this invasion of the Shadow World with grace!]

[Tip 1: A large number of monsters will be spawned during this Shadow World Invasion event. Killing monsters will earn you corresponding points, which can be exchanged for items in the store. You can also earn points by rescuing different characters.]

[Hint 2: In hours, the boss in the Shadow World will descend. Killing the monster can shorten its arrival time and weaken its basic status.]

[Tip 3: The shorter the time it takes to kill the boss, the more bonus points you will get]

Bai Yu looked left and right at the system panel, and finally saw three bloody words between the lines.

"—Hurry up!"

Chapter 233 Upper and Lower Mouths

Zhou Liu was now a little flustered and his scalp was tingling.

This was the first time she encountered an invasion from the shadow world. Although she had heard about and seen it before, she had never experienced it personally.

There was no one standing on the scene to make dispatches.

Only after I started to deal with it did I realize the lack of manpower and limited supplies, and my own insufficient experience.

Applying the knowledge learned in school to practice is another matter, because in reality there are no such standard questions and answers for people to match.

Chang Ye Si alone has no way to solve the overflow of the shadow world. It is currently just overflowing and has not yet completely entered the invasion stage.

Generally speaking, disasters in the shadow world are divided into four stages: 1. Overflow; 2. Invasion; 3. Assimilation; 4. Subsidence.

Once you enter the third stage, you are doomed to be unable to stop, so you must deal with it in the first two stages.

But how to deal with it specifically?

Every time a shadow world appears, it is unclear what the internal situation is like or what kind of world it is connected to. Entering rashly will only result in loss of manpower.

Zhou Liu has mobilized all available connections and has also called in all the people he can.

Even so, its spread could not be controlled, and its area nearly doubled in just one day.

Within one day, the casualties reached 10%. Although requests for foreign aid had been sent out and reinforcements had been dispatched from nearby cities, the situation was still insufficient.

Zhou Liu hadn't slept for thirty-six hours, but her painful mental exhaustion was due to her own lack of ability. This was just a way to delay time and pretend.

She needed a more precise approach, preferably one that could be decisive.

This means that it is necessary to enter the interior of this shadow world and cut it off from the inside.

This method is the most efficient and involves the least sacrifice, but Zhou Liu feels helpless because this trick cannot be used.

It’s not that there are no extraordinary third-level masters in Nanling City. There are about ten of them, and six or seven of them came to help.
