YM778.TV Chapter 65
An emergency meeting was being held in a tall building.
Although there were not many people in the meeting, if there were people who knew them, they would definitely be surprised.
The people present were the secretary of the City Defense Division, the chiefs of the four major Border Defense Forces, the president of the Profession Association, the president of the Imperial Capital University, the head of the Night Watchmen, and the deputy chiefs of the three major guards of the Great Wall.
Only the Heavens Academy, because the principal wasn’t around, a vice-principal came.
The lineup was truly luxurious.
It could even be said that this group of people here could decide the fate of this country!
“There’s an urgent matter.” A middle-aged man sat at the head of the table.
He said, “We’ve lost contact with H Province for a long time. It’s probably already fallen. G City is also about to fall. It’s not optimistic.”
“Ah?” The people present were stunned when they heard the news.
“Why would it?”
The word ‘city’ and ‘fallen’ were unfamiliar to China. They could not remember when was the last time they heard it.
“It’s been confirmed that it’s the work of the Abyss Church. The initial estimate is that they’ve mobilized more than three Grand Cardinals and several abyssal magical beasts of the same level,” the middle-aged man said.
“They’ve got guts!”
“No wonder the Abyssal Chasm has been on the offensive since yesterday. It’s in preparation for today’s operation!”
“This group of sewer rats, I’m going to teach them a lesson!”
“There’s no point in saying all this now. The most important thing now is to organize people to go to G City,” the middle-aged man stopped him.
“I remember this year’s top scorer is in G City, right?” said the principal of the Imperial Capital University.
“The major academies have sent out many teachers to specially recruit him. One of the vice-principals of our academy has also gone. He should be able to resolve the urgent situation.”
“It’s not enough.” The middle-aged man shook his head.
Then, he showed the satellite image of G City to everyone.
“This is... A Rank 6 Abyssal Gate?”
“It seems like we have to send a few Rank 6 professionals.”
The crowd looked at each other.
In this situation, G City was undoubtedly a whirlpool, even if a Rank 6 expert went, there was a high risk of death.
“I’ll go!” The head of the Night Watchmen stepped forward. “I’m responsible for this. It was our mission to guard against the Abyss Church. We didn’t expect such a mistake.”
The crowd shook their heads and did not speak.
China was a vast country, but human activity was limited to a single city. Outside the city was the vast wilderness.
The people of the Abyss Church could simply drill in from the sidelines and walk along the no-man’s land. It couldn’t be any easier.
They didn’t do this before because they were afraid of revenge.
“Actually, we originally received a related report,” the middle-aged man said after some deliberation, “the two members of our company who went to deal with the matter went missing this morning, one after the other.”
The middle-aged man said to the head of the Night Watchmen, “If it’s possible, please keep an eye out.”
“En!”
The middle-aged man looked at the vice principal of the Heavens Academy and asked, “Where’s your principal? With him as the [Wind Traveler], we can help G City much faster.”
“I don’t know,” The vice president shook his head. “It’s not like you don’t know the old man’s personality. Who knows which secret realm he’s in right now?”
The middle-aged man didn’t blame him, but said, “Do your best to contact him and ask him to rush over to provide support.”
Then, he looked at the principal of the Imperial Capital University and said, “Tell that little dragon in your academy to inform the older dragons in their clan that a member of their clan is in G City. Those old guys are more anxious than us when this happened.”
The principal of Imperial Capital University nodded.
“Inform the other cities, especially in G Province, to pay attention to the Abyss Church’s attack again.”
“The four border armies should be prepared. If an Abyssal Chasm really forms, you must minimize the influence!”
“Also, be careful of other countries, or those wild profession class holders who come to fish in troubled waters!”
Everyone’s expression was grave. They knew that this was going to be a tough battle, so they went to do their own things.
The head of the Night Watchmen came downstairs.
Several Formation Grandmasters and Masters were busy.
A large-scale ultra-long-distance teleportation array was being constructed bit by bit. They would jump from here to J City, which was next to G City, and then rush to G City from J City to provide assistance.
This method was much faster than a short-distance teleportation array, but it was also more expensive.
It was so expensive that even the City Defense’s director would feel heartache if he burned it.
—
He really could!
Wang Yu’s eyes lit up when he heard the system notification.
Moreover, what surprised him even more was that this time, he had exchanged for a divine-level fishing map!
Unfortunately, it was a fragment. Wang Yu suspected that it was related to the ball, which was only a part of the ritual.
Didn’t that mean that when all the balls were put together, they would form a divine artifact?
...
“Hiss–” Wang Yu sucked in a breath of cold air.
The Abyss Church was really generous!
However, why would such an important thing be given to a small Rank 2 profession class holder like Cheng Jun?
Wang Yu couldn’t figure it out even after thinking for a long time. He could only blame it on the fact that the people of the Abyss Church were out of their minds.
After all, normal people would not believe in the Abyss.
“What’s wrong?” Ma Dongmei asked when she saw Wang Yu’s strange state.
“Teacher, do you know the situation at the light pillar?” Wang Yu retorted.
“I know a little.” Ma Dongmei didn’t ask why and directly said, “According to the news from the principal...”
“Maybe the Abyss Church thinks we can’t do anything to the light pillar, or maybe we don’t have enough manpower.”
“The places where the first five pillars of light are located only have a few Rank 4 professionals from the Abyss Church and the magical beast guards under their control.”
“A Rank 5 professional from the Abyss Church and a magical beast is besieging the secretary of the City Guard Division. The rest is unknown.”
...
“The situation of the sixth pillar of light is also unknown.”
“What do you want to do?” Ma Dongmei looked at Wang Yu.
“Would you believe me if I said I might have a way to extinguish those pillars of light?” Wang Yu said seriously.
He was a person who was afraid of death. If he could, he didn’t want to force himself.
But he also knew that if a Rank 6 magical beast really descended, the chances of them escaping would be close to zero.
It could even be said to be close to nothing!
Among profession class holders, the higher the rank, the greater the gap between each rank.
It was not difficult for a Rank 5 expert to destroy a city.
A battle between Rank 6 experts could even turn a province into scorched earth!
If it wasn’t for the director of the City Guard Division who used tools to pull away the people and beasts fighting with him, and if it was a battle between cities, the destructive power would only be greater than those wreaking havoc.
Therefore, Wang Yu had to take action. Before the Rank 6 magical beast arrived, at least one of the six light pillars had to be extinguished. Only then would they have a chance to escape!
“Are you sure? How confident are you?” Ma Dongmei asked.
“Not even 50%.” Wang Yu didn’t give a definite answer.
Ma Dongmei immediately turned her head and rushed in the direction of the nearest light pillar. She said, “Come with me.”
She also understood the seriousness of the matter, but she had not mentioned it before.
Only then did Wang Yu notice Ma Dongmei’s profession. She was a Rank 4 [Shadow Follower]!
As an Assassin, her combat power was not ordinary.
The three of them had just turned a corner when they saw a ship quietly floating on the street.
As soon as they appeared, the bow of the ship suddenly turned and pointed at the three of them!
They had been discovered!
