Yecheng cataclysm.

For many, it was a nightmare, a sudden wave of terror.

Those in the know avoided the disaster, not only from making its details known to the general public, but also from any organization mentioning it in public, and they wanted to forget it in such a way, even if only for a short time.

Unfortunately, even if you choose to turn a blind eye, some things will blink like a triangular shark fin on the sea.

It has become a nightmare for all in the know, especially for city administrators.

It is no wonder that after Bulvo mentioned the Yecheng catastrophe that Virginia had emphasized in another emergency high-level meeting, the major capital conglomerates, which had seemed to be at ease, immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and even panicked at the same time.

Why?

That was the first reaction of most people in the meeting.

As for the small group of people who remained, their faces were extremely ugly when they thought of something that had happened not long ago.

You must know that Thousand Sails City is different from other super cities, in order to completely control the city, the five major consortia and the federal government can be said to have torn their faces, and the follow-up is a series of continuous suppression, if it were not for the people still recognizing the legitimacy of the federal government, they may have already demolished the three-story small building called the "Federal Government Office in Thousand Sails City".

In doing so, they did what they wanted, and the promulgation of various policies not only grabbed huge profits for their respective groups, but also further expanded through the surrounding satellite towns, and the speed of capital expansion was even more jaw-dropping.

Relying on the increasingly serious monster crisis around the world, the successive emergence of dangerous zones has forced the people to start to concentrate, and the capitalist oligarchs have taken advantage of this to gather refugees and form a large-scale modern army called "Guardian of Mankind" to consolidate their rule, and it is a super city with a population of tens of millions plus several small satellite cities around it, which has become their "territory".

However, there are pros and cons to everything, and now in the face of the menacing Ouroboros that invaded Thousand Sails City by strange means, there are still zero, and the high-level leaders of Thousand Sails City are at a loss!

They have a lot of money, and a fraction of the number on their bank account is enough to make an ordinary commoner a rich man, but those monsters can't bribe with money.

They have nearly one-third of the world's cutting-edge technology, whether it is industrial, medical or electronic intelligence, no one can ignore the five major conglomerates, but these things are useless in the face of those monsters that are beyond common sense, chaotic and savage.

At this time, the only people who can help and can come in a short time are the federal government and the archaeological association, which have been fighting against the monsters of spiritual pollution sources all over the world and have accumulated a lot of experience.

Although the former's MCB department, the Monster Countermeasures Bureau, has existed in name only, the federal government still has its own database built up over the years and an elite army dedicated to fighting monsters from mental pollution sources, and in terms of familiarity with the Yecheng cataclysm, I'm afraid no one has more say than them.

It stands to reason that in the current situation, other cities will definitely ask the federal government for help as soon as possible, seeking their assistance, and the latter will inevitably immediately send reinforcements, which are at stake for the lives of tens of millions of people, and there is no room for delay.

What if Thousand Sails City did this?

There is no doubt that the federal government will definitely choose to help, and it will not be a small help, but a full help.

But it is precisely because of this that the High Council does not dare and is unwilling to seek help from the federal government!

It was not easy to drive out the federal government back then, and after doing so many things that harmed the interests of the other party over the years, don't you have to pay the price for inviting people back to help?

People are not call girls, they come to the door with a phone call, settle the account and then come to the house, that's the federal government!

To take the simplest example, what if the federal government sends someone to settle the matter, and then the people find that the current government is not as good as the federal government, and ask the federal government to come back to power?

Whether or not the High Council is willing to return power, it is questionable whether the federal government, which is gaining prestige among the people, will consider their ideas!

It may be a good way to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, but if the tiger swallows the wolf and wants to come to the roaring mountain forest, what should they do?

After all, the people who proposed this plan in the high-level council sat back helplessly under the gaze of dozens of pairs of eyes that seemed to be about to eat people.

There is only one option left, the Archaeological Society!

However, coincidentally, the heavy casualties caused by the archaeological activities in Tokyo involved a lot of energy of the archaeological association in a short period of time, and the relationship between the two sides was cold, and the feedback from Virginia was that it would have to hold on for a while before waiting for the professional team to be dispatched by the headquarters of the archaeological association.

What else?

Hold it up!

At the very least, until the professional team of the Archaeological Society arrives, there must be no big mess in Thousand Sails City.

Fortunately, Qianfan City is not completely incompetent, and it is difficult to solve the current matter, if it is just to delay time, there is still a way.

On the night of the second day of the incident in Community 7, Bulvo appeared at a press conference held by the Security Department after internal discussions.

"Last night's 'soul' incident in the C6 commercial street of the No. 7 community, the cause has not been ascertained for the time being, but the possibility of it is not ruled out, Qianfan City has always had the tradition of the Ten Thousand Ghost Festival, and it is very likely that this traditional festival is too brilliant to cause some special existence to notice Qianfan City. ”

Looking at the manuscript in his hand, Bulvo kept his expression as solemn as possible, only briefly mentioned the possible reasons, and immediately turned to the focus of this time,

"In order to ensure the safety of the people, Thousand Sails City will close a few blocks where there have been anomalies in recent times, if it is not necessary, please stay at home for the time being, and wait until the matter is completely resolved before coming out for activities!"

That's right, Bulvoo deliberately cited the recent events in Thousand Sails City to supernatural events, which was also a decision after internal discussions within the government.

The reason for this is very simple, compared to the fact that it is very easy to cause widespread social panic, the boiling rumors uploaded on the Internet have become the acceptable part!

The lesser of two evils, after receiving a clear indication that the Archaeological Society is willing to help, what the Thousand Sails City government has to do now is to delay the deterioration of the situation as quickly as possible, and it is only fitting to divert attention from the recent Halloween Festival.

As I said before, there are not many believers among the people of Thousand Sails City, but most of them can often hear some gods and monsters from the older generation or friends because of the traditional festival of Ten Thousand Ghost Day, and they are naturally more or less affected.

Therefore, when Bulvo, the head of the garrison, personally hinted that this rumor was possible, most of the people, although they still felt strange, subconsciously began to agree with this theory as the rumor continued to spread.

Of course, there are also sober-minded people who think this is pure nonsense, not only do not believe the rumors in this regard, but also think that there must be some inside story hidden in it.

The problem is that they are only suspicious, and they really don't have any definite evidence, and in the end, they still have to find the problem from the statement given by the Thousand Sails City government, and the result is needless to say.

Straight to the point.

With this somewhat absurd-sounding excuse, Bulvox made quite a few temporary orders at the press conference, the former undoubtedly false, the latter genuinely for the benefit of the people of Thousand Sails.

Blocking a few special streets, patrolling the whole city at night, patrolling 24 hours a day, etc., Qianfan City can be regarded as out of the way in order not to repeat the mistakes of Yecheng.

But does it really work?

......

"They plan to delay time in this way, but isn't this a disguised cover for the Ouroboros organization, there is no point in relying on this kind of temporary order that is not coercive, the population base of Thousand Sails City is so large, if the situation deteriorates further, the casualties will only increase exponentially!"

In the private clinic, Gu Yinxing watched the replay of the press conference on TV, with some emotions in her words.

Gu Yinxing has never looked down on the government of Qianfan City, and after experiencing despair in the low-level community, she can understand how powerless ordinary people are in the face of this kind of thing.

In the early years, when she was active in human rights organizations, she had seen too many dirty governments, and now she could not help but be indignant to see that they are still trying to deceive the people in such a grim situation.

"It's their business, we can't stop it...... The president of the Virginia branch should already have a lot of say at this time, and since she agrees to do this, she should also have her own reasons, and in our current state, she can only provide some known information as much as possible to let them take more precautions. ”

Compared to Gu Yinxing's attention to current affairs, Suzi's attention was completely focused on the two people on the sofa who were still with their eyes closed.

Zhu Jue's pale face as time went by and Ivanka, who never woke up, made her feel a little bad premonition, and after a short silence, she turned to Gu Yinxing and asked, "Did Zhu Jue mention before that when they would wake up?"

“...... I'm sorry, but I don't have the impression that they should be fighting Gadamon in the deep world right now, it's not an easy thing to do, and it will definitely take a lot of time. ”

Raised his left hand and looked at the time, at this time, it had been 8 hours since Zhu Jue and Ivanka entered the deep world, and as soon as he thought about it, Gu Yinxing pursed his lips and said.

This reason is not so much to tell Suzi as to calm her own uneasiness.

The wind chimes nested in Zhu Jue's arms raised his head and glanced at the two people who were talking, stretched out his two paws and stepped back and forth on Zhu Jue's lower abdomen.

It wasn't in a hurry, and it never thought that Zhu Jue would fail.

It's been waiting for five years, so naturally it doesn't care about the moment.
