Chapter 102: Chapter 102 Protecting Family_1
Twenty minutes after Zhang Ji left, the military and various departnts, after brief communication and integration,
At 7 o’clock sharp, officially comnced the unified evacuation operation.
On Xihua Street, a military vehicle weaved through the roadway, a high-powered loudspeaker on top repeating a phrase non-stop.
“Ergency notice, the mutated beings here are about to riot, all residents of Xihua Street, proceed to the neighborhood square for assembly, ready to evacuate. Note, this is not a drill.”
“Ergency notice, the mutated beings here…”
As the military vehicle passed by, whether it was pedestrians on the streets or residents in apartnt buildings, all displayed stunned expressions, followed by panic.
This incident was also captured and uploaded online imdiately.
Shadowless: “What the fuck! How can they suddenly announce a riot of mutated beings, and also demand imdiate relocation?”
Lonely Wind: “I’ve got so inside information; I heard that those rats, cockroaches, flies, and mosquitoes are moving up to the next stage.”
Rise and Fall: “I don’t get it, what does moving up to the next stage an? How powerful will they beco after advancing?”
Lonely Wind: “Haven’t you seen the video of Ah San Country being slaughtered by mutated animals? Those in the video are second-stage mutated beings, the ones we have now are all first-order, those are second-stage.”
The river flows eastward: “The internet is not beyond the law, do not spread rumors!”
Lonely Wind: “Use your head and you’ll know, the areas being evacuated are all places that haven’t been cleared of the ‘Four Pests.’ Isn’t that telling enough?”
It can be said that the internet exploded with discussion all at once.
Just then, an announcent was released on the Yang City official website.
Instead of a long, drawn-out exposition, it was a concise statent of the situation, followed by a map.
On the map, which areas were safe zones and which were dangerous zones were marked.
Almost all places that had been cleared of the ‘Four Pests’ were now marked as safe zones.
Residents could either make their own way to the safe zones or proceed to specific locations to gather, where transportation would be arranged to escort them.
Beyond that, so dangerous areas that hadn’t had ti to clear the “Four Pests” also had designated safe points.
Soldiers would be stationed behind these safe points, set up to assist those residents who hadn’t been able to evacuate in ti.
After reading this announcent, the public’s fearful emotions were slightly alleviated.
anwhile, the military also made a statent, claiming that with the current military strength within Yang City, all mutated beings within the city could be cleared within a maximum of three days, enabling everyone to return ho.
Below the announcent was a video, which showed the overwhelming manner in which the military exterminate the mutated beings during the pest control operation.
Without a doubt, this further reassured the public.
At the sa ti, many analytical posts appeared online.
These posts mainly described why a small city in Ah San Country was overrun by mutated beings.
First, of course, was because authorities likely didn’t respond quickly enough when the mutated beings suddenly appeared, leaving no chance to organize an effective resistance.
Second, the total ard forces there probably didn’t even exceed 500 people which, in the face of a vast group of mutated beings, was insignificant.
Third, regarding equipnt, firearms could kill large mutated beings, but were less effective against smaller mutated insects, and the military in Yang City had already prepared for this.
Fourth…
Fifth…
As more and more information was listed, the public’s mindset underwent a complete change.
Although many people could tell that the narrative was being intentionally steered, the information listed was indeed true.
The direction of the Internet started to change.
In reality, what this resulted in was the once slightly chaotic evacuation teams becoming gradually more orderly.
Ye Feng, who had been closely monitoring the Internet, of course learned of the explosive news the mont it broke.
Ding-ling-ling!
At the shooting range, Chen Dalong was practicing his marksmanship along with a group of his subordinates.
As an Evolutionist, he now possessed the best physical conditions, making his practice of marksmanship doubly effective.
What’s more, with the personal guidance of two sharpshooters, Liu Wenhua and Xie Guanzhong, his progress could be described as rapid.
But just as he was getting into the groove, his phone rang in his pocket.
Chen Dalong jerked, nearly missing the target with his shot.
Since so many people were trying to reach him, he had set his phone to do not disturb mode.
Under do not disturb mode, the only calls that could co through were from those he had set as special contacts, like Lord Parrot.
He handed over the firearm to Liu Wenhua and, while answering the call, quickly walked toward a corner.
“Lord Parrot, do you have any orders for ?” Chen Dalong asked hurriedly.
“Have you been paying attention to what’s happening on the internet?” the Mutated Parrot inquired.
“Uh… What’s happening? I’ve been practicing shooting with the brothers at the range,” Chen Dalong was a bit confused.
Since they were in a safe zone where order still prevailed, they had not imdiately noticed anything amiss.
The Mutated Parrot promptly explained the situation, and Chen Dalong’s expression changed drastically.
He had known that Mutated Insects were about to evolve and had only thought it would be troubleso in the future, but he had never associated it with the “Four Pests” inside the city.
It was only now that he realized how serious the situation was.
“In fact, this is just the first step. Next, the majority of cats and dogs in the city will also mutate. If not handled properly, it could beco even more troubleso,” the Mutated Parrot dropped another bombshell.
“This…” For a mont, Chen Dalong felt his mind go blank. He had only been practicing his shooting for a while!
How had the city beco so fraught with crises in just the blink of an eye?
The Mutated Parrot continued, “The upcoming period will be very dangerous for ordinary people. So, I have a very important task for you to undertake.”
“You are to imdiately take your n to 56 Donglin Street. There is a family there with the surna Ye. Protect them well, and once the task is complete, you will be awarded 100 Contribution Points.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Dalong felt his breath quicken. 100 Contribution Points—that was equivalent to ten sessions of Spiritual Energy Empowernt!
This was more rewarding than the combined rewards of the two tasks previously issued by Lord Parrot.
But precisely because of this, Chen Dalong beca even more cautious.
“Yes! Lord Parrot, I promise to complete the task,” Chen Dalong assured first.
Then he carefully asked, “Additionally, my lord, may I inquire if there’s anything special about the family you want to protect? Or is there anything in particular I need to be aware of?”
As he asked this question, the other side of the phone went silent.
This made Chen Dalong’s heart race, “Could it be that I’ve asked sothing I shouldn’t have?”
While his mind was running wild with thoughts, the Mutated Parrot sighed softly and said, “Actually, I shouldn’t tell you the secrets involved so soon.”
“But Dragon Lord hadn’t expected the second wave of Spiritual Energy Resurgence to co so soon. Now, with limited manpower, I have no choice but to entrust you with this important task.”
“I will only say the following once, and you must keep it to yourself. If you speak carelessly, no one can save you from punishnt.”
