Chapter 1279: Everything Goes Smoothly
Everything Goes Smoothly
"What did you say?"
The Head of the Pu Family turned back in surprise to look at the Pu Family member.
"He's using a Radio to broadcast Terrorist Attack warnings?"
"Yes, Head of the Pu Family... I don't know what method he used to tamper with the radio frequency band. Just now, he has already announced the location of the first attack." The young figure spoke nervously, "The first location he announced is a densely populated Commercial Street..."
The Head of the Pu Family's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, as if he was pondering something.
"And then?" he asked.
"After the government side heard about it, they were very nervous. They have already dispatched a large number of Police Officers to urgently evacuate the crowd and have also requested reinforcement from the Pu Family." The young man asked tentatively, "Head of the Pu Family, should we go?"
Chen Ling's attack warning was broadcast via Radio. Although the residents of the South Sea Domain were relatively wealthy, not every household had a Radio, and even fewer people would carry a Radio onto the streets. Therefore, the large number of citizens currently in the Commercial Street completely didn't know that this place was about to be attacked and were still immersed in a leisurely and relaxed atmosphere. If the government didn't send people to evacuate them, the casualties would be extremely heavy.
"Only a few people going... can they deal with Chen Ling?"
"Chen Ling is not there."
"Ah?"
"If he really wanted to kill people to create panic, there is absolutely no need to give a warning. Wouldn't suddenly striking and directly slaughtering thousands of people on the Commercial Street be more terrifying than a warning? By doing this, he should be trying to attract our attention to facilitate him secretly completing what he really wants to do."
"No wonder... Then I'll go arrange it now."
"No need."
The Head of the Pu Family seemed to feel that passing a message was too troublesome. He raised his fingertips and was just about to write something in the void, but his entire person suddenly froze in place.
"...Head of the Pu Family?" The young man was somewhat confused.
"...It's nothing." A trace of strange glimmer flashed in the Head of the Pu Family's eyes. He waved his hand. "Go, go arrange it."
"Yes!"
Following the young man's departure, the Head of the Pu Family slowly lowered his head and looked at his own hands, seemingly somewhat confused.
But very quickly, the confusion in his eyes vanished without a trace, as if it had never appeared.
He continued to clasp his hands behind his back, looking at the gloomy sky, and muttered:
"Chen Ling... what exactly do you want to do?"
...
"What's going on? Why did so many Police Officers suddenly come?"
"I don't know... Isn't this a Commercial Street? Could it be a murder occurred?"
"Not good! They said the Six of Hearts, Chen Ling, is right here!!"
"What?!!"
"He also said he's going to raze this place to the ground!!"
"Everyone, do not panic. Please evacuate in an orderly manner according to guidance... Repeating, please evacuate in an orderly manner according to guidance..."
"Why? We have no grievances or grudges with Chen Ling, why is he trying to kill us??"
"What do you mean why? He's the Calamity of Mockery, a wanted criminal in the first place!! Does he need a reason to kill people?!"
"Quick, quick, quick... I still don't want to die. I still don't want to die!!"
"People in front, hurry up!!"
"..."
With the intervention of a large number of Police Officers, the entire Commercial Street was thrown into chaos. After learning the whole story, everyone frantically evacuated outwards as if they had gone mad in terror.
If it were a normal Terrorist Attack warning, it definitely wouldn't have caused such an effect. The South Sea Police Department were no pushovers; they wouldn't just believe any random person issuing a warning... But the problem was, the one issuing the warning this time was the "Six of Hearts," Chen Ling.
That was an out-and-out madman, a World-Ending Calamity that infiltrated the Human Domains. If he said he was going to attack the Commercial Street, who wouldn't be afraid??
He had even destroyed Human Domains before, what was killing all the people on a street to him?
Therefore, even if the South Sea Police Department and the Pu Family felt Chen Ling's purpose wasn't this simple, they still had to go all out to evacuate the area. After all, who dared to gamble on the thoughts of a World-Ending Calamity?
This was a blatant Overt Plot.
Under the evacuation of the South Sea Police Department, coupled with the heartfelt panic of the citizens, the entire Commercial Street quickly fell into deathly silence... Looking around, not a single person could be seen. There was only a group of Police Officers holding Riot Shields, vigilantly surrounding the edge of the street.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes...
Just as they were nervous to the point of swallowing their saliva, a Police Officer hurriedly ran over from a distance:
"Not good!"
"Chen Ling has issued another warning! He said he changed his mind, and this time he's going to attack a factory!"
Everyone: ???
...
South Sea Domain, at the top of a certain towering Clock Tower.
Chen Ling patted the dusty Radio and slowly stood up, gazing at the continuous, dense buildings before his eyes... From this angle, he could see the Commercial Street not far away, as well as the group of Police Officers hurriedly shifting their positions.
"Are the Pu Family members still hiding in the dark..."
Chen Ling's eyes narrowed slightly.
Chen Ling could naturally tell that the ones urgently evacuating the citizens and searching for his figure in the Commercial Street were basically all from the South Sea Police Department. Although there were also Pu Family members guarding, the number was not large. It seemed they had gradually seen through his intentions and were biding their time in the dark.
However, Chen Ling wasn't arrogant enough to think he could toy with the entire South Sea just by relying on this method. After all, they weren't idiots. A little trick like announcing attacks could only occupy a small amount of their energy. Chen Ling believed these Pu Family members should have already used some method to secretly deduce his location...
There weren't many opportunities left for him to "play tricks."
Chen Ling patted the Radio again.
Boom——!!
In the next second, an intense flash of fire exploded from a factory in the distance. The raging fire mixed with thick smoke surged into the sky, resembling a hideous fire dragon.
The previous warning about the Commercial Street was fake, purely to create a tense atmosphere... But this time's warning was real. Chen Ling truly prepared a large-yield bomb in that factory.
However, Chen Ling detonated the bomb only after the South Sea Police Department had evacuated the factory workers, so there would be no casualties. After all, Chen Ling's purpose was not to kill people, but to pass a message to this group of Police Officers and the Pu Family... Don't treat his warnings as a joke. If they didn't rescue people in sequence, it could really cause casualties.
"After two times, their patience is probably nearing its limit."
Chen Ling's gaze turned towards the edge of the South Sea Domain, in the direction of the Realm Train Entrance...
"Next is the most critical moment..."
The factory as a hiding place, the Dusk Society opening the door, and himself attracting attention within the Domain... Chen Ling had already made all the preparations he could make, one link connected to another. As long as everything was executed according to plan, the probability of the Integration Faction secretly infiltrating the South Sea Domain was very high.
The cold drizzle swept across the Domain, beating on the hem of Chen Ling's Theatrical Robe. He muttered to himself:
"Hopefully... everything goes smoothly."
