Chapter 101: Projection Vanishes

The altar projection still flickered incessantly, like a TV signal affected by strong winds, with poor contact.

The sacrificial ritual was interrupted; countless people woke from beautiful illusions, realizing they had walked a circle before the gates of hell.

An image circulated from somewhere within the British internet—a blurry shadow captured during the projection's flicker, restored through scientific analysis.

The figure in the corner was exceptionally familiar—Yang Yi, the Yang Yi who had entered the Wembi Giant Cave just today! She was not dead; she was still striving to save them! Even though the Prince had fled, even though the Chief of Defense Staff had launched a nuclear missile, she still had not given up on them!

The altar's physical form was in another world! She was saving them there!

Everyone who saw this image rushed out of their homes, looking up at the flickering projection in the sky, weeping tears of joy.

The Barton couple held their daughter, Christine, sobbing loudly; the four-year-old girl looked at her parents in confusion, not knowing what they were crying about.

The family of three embraced and went downstairs, only to find many people already standing on the lawn. They watched the sky projection flicker endlessly with hope; whenever a blurry image occasionally appeared, no matter what it was, they shouted excitedly.

"That is Yang Yi! The God of Humanity!"

"Go for it! Yang Yi!"

"Oh God, save us!"

"Miss Superman! Smash it, smash that damn stone!"

"Thank you! Thank you for saving us; my daughter is only two years old, my son is only six; they still have a bright future..."

"I love you! I swear, I will love only you for the rest of my life!"

At this moment, many British people vented their excitement with words; some were merely babbling nonsense, not knowing what they were saying, while others wept until their voices failed.

Of course, more people had not put down their worries; they either nervously wrung their hands, assumed postures of prayer, or silently cheered for someone unknown somewhere in their hearts.

Nations and organizations worldwide all discovered the blurry images within the flickering projection and quickly detected who it was.

The entire internet rejoiced; everyone watched the live stream screen excitedly, suppressing the excitement in their hearts.

Xia Country, Fu Province, Wuming City, an astronomy enthusiast exchange group.

"Has it been analyzed? Another image just flashed by!"

"My computer is about to burn out; I am urgently analyzing and restoring the image. Give me three more minutes!" said a netizen with the username 【Xiao Wei】.

He was the wealthy brother in the group, who had once shown off a Dell Precision top-series computer and the most professional astronomical telescopes, the Celestron C11 and the Sky-Watcher SC10 high-end series; he was also the first to capture the initial blurry flicker and shared the analysis in the group.

Now, it was not just this group; people across the entire internet were starving, waiting for the big shot to restore the upcoming blurry images.

Suddenly, a netizen named 【Yiyi's Brain-dead Fan】 shared an image; even after maximum restoration, it remained somewhat blurry, with only a slender figure falling from the sky vaguely visible.

"Our Yiyi, she fell from the sky! What is going on???" 【Yiyi's Brain-dead Fan】 used exclamation marks and question marks to vent his worry, ending with a row of crying emojis.

"She is injured; in the first image, there is blood on her face, and her arm is broken, with bone fragments piercing through the skin..." said a netizen named 【Peace is Blessing】.

"We analyzed the star distribution in the first image and compared it with the nearest dozen star systems: the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, the Andromeda Galaxy, the Centaurus Dwarf Elliptical Galaxy, the Ursa Minor Dwarf Galaxy, the Auriga Dwarf Galaxy, the Sextans Dwarf Galaxy, the Fornax Dwarf Galaxy, and the Leo Dwarf Galaxy; currently, no similar star distribution has been found..." said a netizen named 【Astronomy Enthusiast】.

This was the astronomy big shot in the group, working at a high-end astronomical institution where he could personally access the world's most advanced astronomical equipment; this big shot rarely spoke, but whenever he did, it was always shocking news within the industry.

"Does the big shot's subtext mean that the planet where Yang Yi is currently located is not in the Milky Way, nor in the nearby dozen star systems, but on some planet in an unknown galaxy somewhere in the universe?" 【Xiao Wei】 sent a terrified emoji.

"That is to say, the Evil God's believers have already mastered space-travel technology! They can easily reach tens of thousands of light-years away?"

The group fell silent for a moment, worry rising in their hearts simultaneously: Is Earth still salvageable? Can humanity really resist those mad cultists? If the cultists' abilities are already so powerful and unpredictable, what about the Evil God?

Wei De previously kidnapped the United Nations, declaring that all ordinary humans on Earth must be sacrificed; yet 99% of people on Earth have not awakened. Does this mean that apart from a handful of awakened ones, ordinary people truly have no way to survive?

"Don't be afraid! Our dearest Yiyi will protect us!" 【Yiyi's Brain-dead Fan】 sent several fist-clenching emojis in a row.

"But how will she return? I checked the official website of the National Awakened Ones, and it did not announce that she possesses the ability to traverse space..." said 【Moon in the Clouds】.

"Moreover, Britain launched six missiles at the Wembi Giant Cave: three hydrogen bombs and one nuclear bomb. With so many bombs, could they have blown up the spatial rift?" 【Clear Breeze】 sent a scratching-head emoji.

"Now the entire Britain is covered in radiation from nuclear explosions; will she be infected upon her return?" 【Peace is Blessing】 also sent a worried emoji.

"Damn Britain! Stupid Britain! Idiot!" 【Yiyi's Brain-dead Fan】 spammed the last two words and was muted by the group owner for five minutes.

The flickering of the sky projection became more and more frequent, which also indicated that the degree of damage to the projection was increasing, no longer sufficient to remain stable in the sky.

Everyone in Britain was screaming; even on the day their nation won the World Cup championship last time, they had never been so happy.

"Has the latest analysis result come out?" A British company producing high-end cameras was urgently analyzing the latest images.

"Immediately, give me one more minute!" A chubby analyst sweated profusely; he had never been so anticipated in his life, his carrot-like fingers flying across the keyboard leaving afterimages, as the distorted, blurry images on the computer screen gradually became clear.

This seemed to be a shot from above looking down; the entire frame was filled with yellow sand, with only a small black dot near the center.

The chubby analyst quickly zoomed in on the small black dot, further analyzing and restoring it, until he could finally see what it was.

It was Yang Yi's head and upper body; she held both hands high, as if straining to throw something downwards.

Combining the angle of this image, they immediately deduced: What Yang Yi was throwing was the altar's physical form! She had forcibly pulled the altar from the ground and slammed it down onto the earth!

"Look at the sky! The altar is about to disappear—" someone shouted excitedly.

Everyone rushed to the windows, looking up at the sky.

The altar projection seemed to suffer severe interference; its outline lines fractured and shattered, the circular shape twisted and deformed; finally, like a machine drenched in water, the projection flashed violently a few times and vanished.
