Chapter 1249: 858 Chapter: Seeking Help

With the emergence of the Catastrophe Warning, players within Yanyun territory immediately sprang into action.

Although the Great Wall knew that the Catastrophe would start near the shopping mall in the northern suburb, the extent of the affected area was uncertain, so they still evacuated the nearby civilians.

And they published the information they had come to know in the [forum].

The Mirror of Time and Space would reflect the existences closely linked to the Reflector’s past and future time points, which do not exist in the current space-time.

It is very likely that the people in the mirror will come to the Real World, and their number is unknown.

Please, hidden players in Yanyun, be cautious and try not to get too close.

And as night fell, a band of light like an aurora appeared in the sky to the north of Yanyun.

This was the sign before the Catastrophe began.

Because of the special nature of this Catastrophe, Li Changhe did not join the suppression plan immediately. Instead, he took a step back to the second line, ready to enter the scene to support at any time. In fact, most players did the same.

The stronger the Reflector, the more dangerous the people in the mirror who appear. Therefore, the frontline personnel for suppression are mostly non-player members of the Great Wall Special Forces.

So, at the Great Wall family apartment, Chen Yu, sitting beside the dining table, spoke up, "If the Mercury Angel’s intelligence is correct, then players might encounter multiple enemies."

"So according to you, it’s not just the Bloodriders, but the Chaos God’s Chosen and the Great Chaos Demon might also appear together? And the enemies I’ve killed will surge out as well?" Li Changhe asked as he picked a piece of meat for Xiao Nan beside him, "Then they might have to start killing each other first. The Bloodriders and Chaos are also mortal enemies."

"Actually, it depends on how the Flow of Space-Time defines the connection to the Reflector." Xiao Nan shook his head and said, "Although those Chaotic Believers were killed by you, the connection with you isn’t really that important. I think the people in the mirror might be those with closer relationships, such as an uncle or an aunt."

Li Changhe was silent for a while and then said, "I do indeed hope that they can come out of the mirror, but I am also afraid that the one who comes out is the King of Blood Riders, turning this area into a Battlefield."

This was also why Li Changhe stayed behind in the second line.

"That’s a natural human concern," Chen Yu responded, "I guess... many players would want to see their deceased relatives or friends through this Mirror of Time and Space, right? Speaking of which, the Future will also be displayed. Aren’t you curious about your own Future?"

Indeed, Li Changhe had previously seen his mother, the mute woman.

He had seen the ’Past’.

So who would the ’Future’ be?

His and the young lady’s child?

This actually made Li Changhe somewhat look forward to it.

After all, both he and the young lady are now divine creatures. While possessing strong Divinity, their life level has also become increasingly higher.

And it is very difficult for beings of such a level to conceive offspring.

It is said that in a certain storyline world, players learned that a powerful king, a divine creature, had several hundred beauties in his harem.

Yet over a hundred years, only one offspring was born, with a fertility rate so low it was infuriating.

Don’t look at the insect god giving birth to tens of thousands in one go; the ones she births are Insect Race, extensions of her consciousness. They are not her true offspring.

The Queen of Xuan City even sacrificed generations of Xuan City people to resolve the fertility problems of higher life forms.

In the end, she failed to solve the problem.

This was something to look forward to. If it was truly possible...

"If I knew the results of the Future, would it influence the direction of the Future?" Li Changhe pondered and asked, "If my descendants do indeed appear before me, but I intentionally alter something, would they still appear?"

"That’s the uncertainty of the Future; no one knows if this time the Future will be accurate. You could refer to the Book of Heaven," Chen Yu responded.

"That’s really something to look forward to," Xiao Nan chuckled softly, "It’s a matter that’s worth being happy about..."

"Speaking of the Future, I’m quite curious about my own future too. If you two really have children, I reckon I could get some information from them," Chen Yu laughed lightly.

"Then what does he call you? Mooching Auntie?" Li Changhe mercilessly teased, expressing disapproval of Chen Yu’s freeloading behavior.

Chen Yu pondered, then said with a serious face, "Indeed, it’s a bit too much to have a young man call me Auntie!"

...

As time gradually passed.

Near the mall, the Great Wall Special Forces had already set up various weapons. Tanks and armored vehicles had also sealed off the streets around the mall.

And a few hundred meters away, the Black Great Wall rose from the ground, with dozens of Great Wall players waiting in strict formation.

Further away, more players were hidden in the shadows.

It was 3:58 in the early morning, with two minutes left until the Catastrophe would descend. It wouldn’t be long before the sky would brighten.

But the ribbon in the sky, like the aurora, remained dazzling and beautiful, becoming the romantic night of countless young people in Yanyun.

Meanwhile, Li Changhe was on the balcony of his family apartment, watching the aurora in the sky.

Though he had stepped back from the front lines and was not personally involved in the suppression.

When necessary, he could transform into the Demigod state ’Hero’s Watch’ and violently intervene in the Catastrophe.

As the seconds and minutes ticked by, all the players gripped their weapons tighter as the final moment approached.

Li Changhe on the balcony also furrowed his brow.

Then the aurora in the sky suddenly spread across the entire sky, becoming even more magnificent.

And then... there was no "then"...

Li Changhe waited until 4:02, but didn’t sense any vibrations of battle.

"What happened? Have you guys taken care of it?" Li Changhe asked Yang Dong in [Friends].

"Not sure, could it be because we destroyed all the mirrors, the Catastrophe was averted?" Yang Dong was also confused, the inside of the mall was quiet.

At the onset of the Catastrophe, Great Wall players had used sound wave skills to destroy all the mirrors in the area. But this shouldn’t have been enough to stop the Catastrophe from happening.

"Could it be that the first phase... had no real danger?" Li Changhe was puzzled.

But soon, the Great Wall received news of an anomaly.

It was reported that Great Wall players on the streets had found a life-sized floating mirror.

And they discovered a person in the mirror walking out from it.

It was an unremarkable old man, who according to data analysis, was an old man who had passed away years ago.

When the Great Wall found him, he was walking around the streets in confusion. He knew he was already dead, and was puzzled as to why he was alive again.

This proved that the Catastrophe had started, but the person from the mirror didn’t appear inside the mall, instead showing up randomly in various places in the northern suburb!

Damn it, the level of danger had greatly increased. But how was this old man’s Reflector determined?

Could it be a random selection on the north side?

Li Changhe frowned, ready to act.

But then he heard a cry for help with a sobbing voice coming from the next room.

’Don’t... Xiao Nan, Changhe... save me!’

And next door was... Chen Yu?
