Chapter 232
Fantasy park, abandoned park.
The huge hole that was stretched open looked like a devil's cave that bred evil creatures, or like a huge insect nest, with monsters constantly emerging from it. A dark mass of monsters emerged from the hole like locusts, passing over the sky of the fantasy park like dark clouds.
Even across half the city, one could see the huge beam of golden light and the black clouds that continued to pour out.
Inside a hotel far from the theme park, a tourist saw a sudden plume of black smoke billowing from the park's direction. Startled, he shouted, "Look! What's going on over there?"
Everyone around looked over, horrified. "Oh my god, is the park on fire?"
"There's so much smoke, the fire must be quite big!"
"Oh my god, I finally took a long vacation to come here and play, I hope it won't be a wasted trip!"
"Don't call the fire department! That's not a fire, it's a special effect from the park!" A voice soothed the anxious tourists. Everyone looked over and saw a tall girl in the hotel's third-floor restaurant holding a telescope to her eyes. She stared towards the park and said, "I see! Those are monsters from the World Defense War event. Everyone's busy fighting them now!"
"Is that so?" Perhaps because this was so obvious, everyone overlooked the slight strain in the girl's voice. Someone questioned, "That's not right. Doesn't the park have privacy protection technology? In the past, no matter what special effects were used, they couldn't be seen from outside! Why was it so loud this time?"
The girl looked relaxed and said, "Maybe they removed the anti-peeping measures for the effect of the event! Otherwise you can see for yourself." She shared the telescope with others.
A tourist who was closer thanked him, raised his telescope to take a look, and exclaimed, "Wow, this is so real! It looks so good even from such a distance!"
The others took turns borrowing their binoculars to observe, and without exception, they exclaimed in amazement, "Oh my god, so many monsters, appearing like they're free. The park has really invested a lot of money this time!"
"Haha, there are so many monsters, there won't be enough for the tourists!"
"The event has already started, hurry over!"
Most of the guests staying in the hotel came from far away, originally for this large-scale event. Now seeing such a big event in the park, they couldn't sit still and packed up their things and went out.
Someone also asked the girl who lent the telescope if she wanted to go together. The girl shook her head and said she was waiting for her companions.
After most of the tourists in the hotel restaurant had left, a voice called out from behind, "Xia Qingqing!"
He Jing, Ma Xiaoxiao, Zhang Ye, and the others stood outside and waved at her. "Sorry, the airport is a bit far, and there was traffic on the road for a while."
Xia Qingqing wrapped up the telescope and put it back into her backpack, shaking her head and saying it was okay. Her face was a little serious, and the expressions of the others were not relaxed either. After all, they all knew the truth.
Although the confidentiality agreement was signed and the special department repeatedly told them that there was no god and no doomsday, they certainly agreed with it verbally, but they all knew what they were thinking in their hearts.
Ma Xiaoxiao said: "This time we have organized a dozen free-flowing teams to come here. Let's gather outside Taoyuan Street later."
Zhang Ye said, "We've chartered two buses. I think your Special Operations Department will reimburse us for this."
Xia Qingqing couldn't help but smile, "Of course, we are all warriors protecting the world! We can't lack anything but the warriors' money and soldiers!"
After she finished speaking, the atmosphere seemed to relax a little, but some people in the crowd still had frowns on their faces. Xia Qingqing noticed a college-aged man with pale lips, a nervous expression, and trembling fingers. He clutched the Guanyin tablet in his arms and muttered silently.
Xia Qingqing looked at him and couldn't help but ask with concern, "Classmate, are you okay?"
The boy was startled and shook his head quickly.
Everyone got on the bus one after another. Xia Qingqing noticed that there were three other people in a similar situation on the bus. She couldn't help but ask Ma Xiaoxiao, "What's wrong with these people? If they don't have the mental strength to do so, they won't be able to play."
Ma Xiaoxiao introduced her in a low voice, "The boy holding the Guanyin card is called Xu Chao. He has been back from abroad for a few months and is only level 8 now. His whole family was killed by monsters. I originally wanted to assign him to be in charge of the defense of the community near the park, but he insisted on going on stage, saying that he wanted to avenge his family."
"The skinny girl is Jiang Wanxin, she's level 15. Her mother is seriously ill and needs a lot of medical expenses. She heard that reaching a certain number of monster-killing points can be exchanged for medical treatment in the paradise. Although she was a little scared, she still insisted on coming."
"Well, my family is poor, and I came here for the bonus and government subsidies..."
"And that one, an elementary school teacher. Although he was scared, he heard it was a world defense war and insisted on coming. He said he was afraid but he had to go. Otherwise, what would happen to everyone's children?"
Listening to Ma Xiaoxiao's narration, Xia Qingqing's expression was a little moved. She looked outside the car and saw that the bus was moving forward on a straight and correct route. Those left behind included sanitation workers, street vendors, traffic police and tourists... Most of them had excited and expectant expressions, and everyone had rosy and energetic faces. They didn't know what this day really meant.
Xia Qingqing thought, even if she knew there was great danger ahead, she had to keep going for the sake of such a prosperous world.
Inside the fantasy park.
Meng Xiaodai stood on the sixth floor of the hot spring hotel with a group of children, looking out through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows. There were many staff members around them to help take care of them.
The average age of these children is less than seven years old, and they all have three-headed bodies and chubby faces. They are all children of tourists and have not reached the minimum age requirement to fight monsters. The adults have gone out to fight monsters and then left them to the nursery in the park with confidence. Of course, in addition to them, dwarf cubs and tree spirit babies are also here.
They are just like human babies. Some of them are lying by the glass windows looking out, some are eating snacks happily, and some are already sleeping soundly in their cribs... The staff are worried that they may have difficulty breathing, so they put them in a side or front sleeping position.
"Auntie, what's that golden thing?"
"Golden, so bright!"
Meng Xiaodai looked in the direction the children pointed and saw a huge golden beam of light covering the abandoned park and the park's gate. She patiently and gently explained to them, "That's the barrier the director has set up to keep monsters away."
The children thought about it and clapped their hands, saying, "Oh my god, this is called a filter."
Meng Xiaodai praised her generously, "Yes, it's a filter. The function of this golden filter is to filter out the big monsters and put them into the paradise, while letting the small monsters go outside the paradise."
The children looked closely and saw many big monsters and small monsters, which were divided into two places, and many of them ran outside the park.
Although they couldn't fight monsters, they knew everything about the park, just like they knew the monsters in Journey to the West. The children became anxious when they heard this. "What if the monsters get out? Will the police catch them?"
"If a tiger escapes from the zoo, call the police!"
"We need to use anesthetic sauce and inject it into tigers and monsters..."
"Are there any extraordinary warriors outside the paradise?"
Meng Xiaodai smiled and turned these curious babies, whose minds were full of questions, around and asked them to face another direction. Then they saw a layer of blue light in the distance, like a glass cover, covering the distance.
"See that? It's a protective shield, like a giant bowl, trapping most of our city. Even if the monsters escape from Paradise, they can't escape this area. And there are many warriors over there who will catch any escaping monsters and won't let a single one escape!"
"Wow!" The children applauded.
Meng Xiaodai touched them and said, "It's time for dinner. Do you want to go to the restaurant? They have a new season of The Adventures of Sangsang available for viewing today."
"Wow, I want to see it!"
"I want to see it too!" The children instantly forgot the previous question and walked towards the restaurant with their short legs. Although they didn't like most monsters, thinking that they were always fierce and malicious, but would lie down when hit by powerful adults. They were useless and loved to make trouble, but Sangsang was different. Although Sangsang was a monster, he was brave, smart, kind and hardworking, and he had many interesting friends. He always stood up bravely when others were bullied, and was a hero in the eyes of the children!

Sky Aquarium.
Chen Wangping had already organized a medical team. In addition to the tree spirits with healing talents, they also included a group of students she had personally trained. These students all had similar medical talents to hers, and they served as medics in this World Defense War, specializing in treating the wounded on the battlefield.
Unlike them, Chen Wangping is not only at a higher level, but her skills have also been upgraded through repeated rescue efforts. Now, in addition to ordinary treatments, the pair of scalpels in her hands can quickly remove injuries, contamination, and foreign objects from patients without leaving any traces on the patients.
The activity has just begun and there are no casualties yet. Chen Wangping recalled what he learned at the meeting last night, and it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.
Last night, Chi Xiaozhen told her that the director had to concentrate on dealing with the evil god, preventing the hole from expanding, maintaining the park's filter, and providing protective armor for every visitor. He couldn't spare time to do anything else, so they would have to guard everything after the war.
The word "guardian" always makes people think of many soft things.
Chen Wangping felt a little more relaxed. She opened the park app and checked the notifications posted by the park app again.
[Important Notice: 1. After entering the battlefield, blue and red bars will appear above the warriors' heads. When the blue bar reaches the bottom, please immediately go to the Sky Aquarium to recover. Recovery methods include meditating on Cloud Island, swimming in the Aquarium, or resting in Dandelion Field until the blue bar is restored. During the World Guardian War event, Sky Aquarium admission is free.]
[2. When the red bar is halfway down, or if you experience abnormal conditions such as injury, poisoning, or contamination, please immediately go to the Sky Aquarium and receive treatment from the medical team led by Dr. Chen. Warriors who remain on the battlefield while the red bar is in the above conditions will not receive points for the monsters they defeat.]
[3. If you encounter an unexpected situation and the red bar suddenly clears, please don't panic. The park agrees to send you a protective armor that will automatically trigger in the event of an accident to ensure that you will not die in battle due to special circumstances.]
[4. Please remember, Earth is our home turf. Here, we are the strongest! Kill the evil god, long live Earth!]
"Kill the evil god, long live the earth!" Suddenly, tens of thousands of people shouted in unison outside. The sound swept in like a tsunami, like a strong wind and huge waves.
Chen Wangping was startled and looked outside. He found that a large group of tourists like ants in the distance had just killed a level 35 monster.
Because the monster was so huge and the extraordinary person's eyesight was so good, even from such a distance, Chen Wangping could still see the unwillingness, anger and disbelief in its eyes when it fell to the ground.
She curled the corners of her mouth and felt completely relaxed.
The evil god is very powerful, but if you think we are really ants, you are wrong.
