Against the flow of the fleeing crowd, Xu An tightened his grip on his sword.
This is what he obtained from headquarters before coming here, after clearing all his mission points.
The sword was entirely black and icy cold to the touch; it wasn't a famous sword.
It's just a modern product with special materials added, and it can't compare to the one in Banggu's hand.
However, it can also be considered as sharp as cutting iron.
"Young man, why aren't you running for your life!"
"If we don't leave now, it will be too late!"
An old man passing by called out to Xu An.
"Oh my god, what time is it and you still have time to care about others?"
"Hurry up, hurry up! I spent hundreds of thousands of yuan to get through the channels and secure an evacuation spot."
A middle-aged man grabbed the old man and dragged him away.
The former prosperity is gone.
Everywhere was a scene of apocalypse.
The shops along the street were either blown up, burned, or looted.
The body was carelessly dumped by the roadside, and no one buried it.
When disaster truly strikes, that's when humanity is truly tested.
but……
Human nature is inherently vulnerable to testing.
Xu An walked forward silently; he had never imagined this day would come.
I just didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
Police and several night patrol officers are trying their best to maintain order, but with little effect.
Lingwu Academy.
The once bustling campus...
It's even more lively now!
Because many people who had no other way to leave regarded Lingwu Academy as their last safe haven.
"Don't push, everyone line up properly!"
"Anyone who disrupts the order will be disqualified from entering the Spirit Martial Academy!"
Xue Rou and Teacher Sun were leading a group of students to maintain order.
However, there are far too many people outside who want to get in.
Lingwu Academy has clearly reached its limit...
Releasing more people than allowed would plunge the entire Lingwu Academy into disaster, making it impossible to protect those already inside.
"Please, please! My daughter is so young, teacher... teacher, please have mercy! I won't go in, please let my daughter in, I beg you!"
Some people knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly and weeping bitterly.
"Your daughter is so young? My son is only three years old! He's only three! Dean... Teacher... I'm begging you!"
"Teacher Sun, Teacher Sun, we're distant relatives!"
"Make way! Make way, teacher! I have money, a million, no, ten million! Please let my family in!"
...
At the school gate, the large iron gate was almost broken from being squeezed so much.
Several security guards, drenched in sweat, were bracing the gate with their bodies.
"Break down the gate! They won't dare lay a hand on us civilians! Break down the gate!"
In the chaos, someone shouted something.
Immediately, those who hadn't yet entered outside began frantically trying to force their way through the gate.
"Calm down!"
"Everyone, everyone, please calm down!"
"You can go to Beijing Youth Academy and other academies to take a look. They are also very strong and can protect everyone."
"If you all rush in, you'll all die together."
"Our protective capabilities are limited!"
Xue Rou's voice was already hoarse from shouting.
but……
"If we're going to die, we'll all die together!"
"Why should we die while they get protection?!"
"If you have the guts, kill us right now..."
In the crowd, a middle-aged man with a large belly was shouting and waving his hands.
His words only fueled the emotions of those outside.
Cao Meng, Chen Yan, and others who were maintaining order at the school were all extremely helpless.
Without a valid reason, it is a grave crime for a spiritualist to attack ordinary people!
Those people outside have taken this into account.
"Everyone...everyone, listen to me..."
Looking at the frenzied crowd and listening to the curses outside, Xue Rou's voice was already trembling with tears.
Just then, Xu An silently walked to Xue Rou's side.
"Sister Rou, let me help..."
The calm voice startled Xue Rou.
The next second, Xu An drew the night patrolman's pistol from his waist.
Bang! ...
A gunshot rang out.
The middle-aged man who led the disturbance fell to the ground with a thud; the bullet pierced his forehead, and blood and brain matter splattered everywhere.
At that moment, the entire venue fell silent.
The people at Lingwu Academy were dumbfounded, as were the people outside.
Crazy?
Attacking civilians? How dare he!
"Is anyone else trying to cause trouble?"
Xu An calmly glanced at everyone and slowly began to speak.
Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.
He knew that trying to persuade her like Xue Rou did would be useless.
"You...you...you killed civilians!"
"You, a spiritualist, dare to lay a hand on a commoner! I'm going to report you... I'm going to report you to the night watchmen!"
"You think you can get away with indiscriminately killing civilians?"
"Report it! Quickly, report it to the night patrol!"
...
Outside, after a brief moment of fear, the crowd began to criticize Xu An.
"Whose student is this? Can't they follow the rules? Threatening civilians?"
"Exactly! If word gets out, what will others think of our Lingwu Academy!"
Within the Lingwu Academy, some people also began to angrily shout and curse.
A spiritualist attacking civilians...
That's the most despicable thing ever!
“Xu An…”
Xue Rou looked at Xu An apologetically and sighed helplessly.
She knew that Xu An was doing this to help her...
"It's alright, Sister Rou."
Xu An smiled calmly.
A moment later, the watch on Xu An's wrist lit up.
