Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!

This was precisely the news that Dong Gong had just told Shen Hao. Shen Hao took advantage of the moment to propagate it, providing a new direction for the massive traffic.

And without a doubt, it had an effect.

At this moment, countless people were excited.

Compared to the power that Shen Hao had displayed and the promises he had made, the word "official" undoubtedly carried a greater weight in this land.

It could be said that since the news from the external internet about the existence of Monsters had been spread and confirmed, countless people had been waiting for an official statement!

People flocked continuously into the official live broadcast room, and even though it had not started yet, the black screen was already covered with dense comments.

"It’s finally here!"

"I knew it, there’s always preparation before any movement!"

"Our workplace has already received a notice, asking all levels to be ready for wartime response!"

"Will they recall veterans? I want to re-enlist."

"If there’s a war, we must respond!"

"The Prevention Guide is crucial! There’s nothing like that anywhere else in the world!"

"Right, I’ve been searching for hours. All governments abroad seem clueless when asked!"

"I hope there’s a way to identify the Monsters!"

"..."

Clearly, the events at Shen Hao’s side, coupled with the official movement, had finally given the people who were originally in panic, anxiety, and even fear of the apocalypse a backbone to lean on, a reason for hope.

Next, as long as the official response on all fronts was timely and effective, the country’s order could still be maintained.

However, the attention sparked by Shen Hao was not limited to within the country.

Now, people around the whole world were eager to know the answer, whether there really were such terrifying Monsters hiding among them, where they came from, and how to get rid of them.

They crowded on the websites of governments worldwide, on almost all social media platforms, and even physically at the gates of official offices, just hoping to get the answers they desired.

However, up to now, no one could provide an answer.

Because the Monsters had appeared too suddenly, just like a "Star Jump," everything was without any warning.

And the movement in the Eastern Country suddenly became an outlet.

In a short time, countless gazes were cast from the internet.

And not just ordinary people.

At this very moment, within the West State’s high-level, an emergency meeting that had started last night and continued until now was still unfolding in a tense atmosphere.

The leader, an old man, hadn’t slept all night but couldn’t contain his anger.

"Guys, tell me!" he banged heavily on the table, "Eight hours have passed, and we still know nothing about these damned Monsters, not how they appear, not how they replace us, we can’t even capture one alive! What are our agents, our military, and those damned Chosen Ones actually doing?"

"Sir," a General in a military uniform said helplessly, "it’s not that we haven’t captured any. It’s just that they die quickly, as if every Monster is a member of a suicide squad."

"You shouldn’t be telling me this, you should be telling the angry crowd outside! See how they react!" the old man covered his forehead in pain, "God, why do these things keep happening during my term? I don’t even know how many among those people, or even among you, are Monsters!"

"Sir, what’s most important now is our military," the General’s expression was extremely grave, "The Northern Alliance’s failure to encircle and suppress was because Monsters had infiltrated their ranks. Those creatures turned their guns on their comrades at the last moment, causing great panic.

And if the same happens to us, then the Monsters will possess the strongest military force in the world... I swear, that would be the end of the world, sir, we would all be doomed!"

It seemed that the words "end of the world" once again struck a chord with these high-profile individuals who hadn’t closed their eyes for more than eight hours. They quickly perked up.

The more one has, the more they fear death.

No matter their past status or wealth, in the face of such a crisis, they all felt a profound fear.

Even hidden in bunkers that could withstand nuclear blasts, they couldn’t guarantee that Monsters wouldn’t infiltrate.

Danger seemed to be everywhere, and the end of humanity had never been so close!

"Let’s think again..."

Just as the old man was about to say something else, a somewhat exciting voice suddenly came from below.

"Sir, there’s news!"

"What news?" everyone looked over; it was the head of the cybersecurity department. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"That country in the East claims they will release the first version of the Monster Prevention Guide in a few minutes. The contents will include the Monster’s parasitic methods, fatal weaknesses, and prevention suggestions. Oh, and they have named these creatures Blood Demons, the kings of blood." The person in charge looked very excited.

But the rest were looking at each other in confusion.

"Is the news reliable?" someone immediately asked.

"How exactly did they come by this information?" someone else followed up with a question.

"Send a message to contact them right away," another suggested, seeking more information, "we can share intelligence."

"Could the Monsters be related to them?" someone even speculated about a conspiracy.

The previously quiet meeting room seemed to come alive in an instant.

All sorts of voices kept emerging.

"Quiet down!" the old man at the head position finally shouted, "Investigate, find out how they got this information. I refuse to believe they can do better than us."

"Well, I think we don’t need to investigate." The cybersecurity head turned the laptop to face everyone, "It seems to be the work of this Chosen One."

In the video, it was Shen Hao using his dagger to precisely kill one Blood Demon after another in the crowd!

All those present took a sharp breath.

They were shocked, not just by this man’s ease in slaughtering Monsters, but by the fact that he could effortlessly identify who the Monsters were!

"This is a Chosen One from the Eastern Country, whose name and identity are still unclear. But clearly, his eyes can recognize Monsters, and he is very powerful. The Monsters seem to be no match for him, and the intel from the Eastern Country is based on his interrogations of the Monsters."

"..." Everyone fell into silence.

After a while, the old man turned to look at everyone.

"Guys, who can tell me why we don’t have such a Chosen One?"

"Sir, it’s just a matter of probability..." the person in charge of the Chosen Ones started to sweat, "Maybe we’re just unlucky."

"But didn’t you tell me before that we have the most elites in the world, so our Chosen Ones are the most numerous and the strongest?" the old man said in disappointment, "Or is it that God no longer favors us?"
