For Luogong City, which has enjoyed peace for a long time, this loss is really serious.
Qusen District is the most prosperous economic area in the city. Many corporate headquarters are located here, and a large number of entertainment industries are also stationed here. The economic benefits it generates each year account for a quarter of the city's total.
Although the intelligence obtained so far shows that only a few streets have been affected by the nightmare, this is a prosperous area of the city and is located in a densely populated area, so the casualties are very large.
"How long until medical services arrive here?"
"Mr. Archon, we have contacted five hospitals. The nearest one will arrive in about three minutes."
"To avoid unnecessary casualties, wait until the monitoring department confirms the safety of the environment before sending out search and rescue operations. If anything is found to be amiss, immediately order the soldiers to open fire."
"Yes, Your Excellency."
While talking with other subordinates, Lin Chen glanced at the situation around him. As his perception gradually covered the surroundings, his expression gradually became solemn.
Although he didn't know why, the nightmare aura was indeed fading. However, when his mental power touched it lightly, trying to analyze its components, he felt a painful pricking like a needle.
The nature of those nightmare auras was very high, at least much higher than his level, which indirectly verified that Bai Shiying did not deceive him.
"Why would such a powerful monster come to Luogong City?" After discovering this fact, Lin Chen felt a little heavy, but in order to avoid causing panic, he did not tell this information to other subordinates. "What is the other party's purpose..."
The foreign monsters prioritized attacking the strong cities along the Pacific coast. While Luogong City, located inland, was occasionally harassed by small groups of monsters, it never suffered a full-scale attack, which is why it has been able to develop steadily to this day.
This time, a powerful monster suddenly appeared, which made Lin Chen shocked, but more of a puzzlement.
"But no matter what the purpose is, in order to avoid greater casualties, we must activate the defense formation to clear out the foreign objects."
He pondered for a moment before pulling out a specially crafted smartphone from his pocket. However, this phone didn't resemble a traditional smartphone; it was a small, hexagonal gem, crystal clear and shimmering with a pale blue sheen, with dense streams of data occasionally flashing across it.
This is the pinnacle product of the last era, the most intelligent crystallization of Earth civilization, the quantum optical brain.
It was only after humans successfully developed optical computers that they used them as a basis to create robots that truly possessed independent intelligence.
However, after the devastating war, the population plummeted to one percent of its original size. Various advanced technologies were lost, and a vast amount of literature was destroyed. History and writing began to falter, and civilization began to fracture. Forget intelligent robots, even only a tiny fraction of quantum optical computers survived.
'The Bohis Matrix is activated, and communication with the structural defense hall has begun.'
Lin Chen held the gem-shaped optical computer in his hand, and suddenly a gentle male voice came from it. Then the originally messy and miserable scene around him immediately began to change, and thin films formed by data passed by him.
After a moment, the surrounding scene completely changed, creating a new three-dimensional scene. In reality, Lin Chen had not left Qusen District. The quantum optical brain merely refracted Lin Chen's sensory nerves, projecting a new scene into his brain.
What appeared in front of Lin Chen was a hall with mechanical structures. The architectural style looked a bit strange. Around the spiral corridor above, there were about seven or eight robots working non-stop to maintain the basic operation of this mechanical hall.
These intelligent robots are the only ones left in Luogong City. They were all dug out from the ruins. Because the main components used in their construction were made of materials extracted and smelted from Mars, the manufacturing technology cannot be restored with the technological level of the Dark Ages.
"Welcome to the Structural Defense Hall, my Lord Archon."
After Lin Chen arrived at the hall, a handsome young man wearing metallic armor slowly appeared from mid-air.
"Wu Lin, there are monsters invading the city now. We need to open the ninth floor of Luo Palace."
Lin Chen glanced at the young man in front of him and said in a low voice.
This young man who looks like a real person is actually not a human being, nor even an intelligent robot, because he has no physical body, but a virtual AI character.
But Wu Lin's wisdom and strength are even stronger than those of ordinary Force users.
Looking at the somewhat gloomy Archon, Wu Lin, who had been smiling, turned serious: "Is the other party very powerful?"
The ninth floor of Luo Palace is already the strongest defense measure in the entire city. It consumes a huge amount of resources. Under normal circumstances, it would never reach this point.
"Very strong, at least one level stronger than me. And I suspect he will continue the killing. To ensure the safety of the people, we must activate the defense matrix to clean up."
Lin Chen thought for a moment before nodding solemnly.
Although the resource consumption is huge every time the matrix is opened, he has no choice in this critical situation.
"Okay, then I'll start injecting energy immediately to activate the S-level defense matrix in the ninth floor hall."
AI Wu Lin nodded without saying anything else, and then his figure gradually disappeared from the spot.
......
At the event venue.
In the game booth and several surrounding areas, bloody bones and pieces of flesh were placed randomly. The once bustling hall had long been silent. Some people were still struggling in their sleep. Fortunately, they did not die in the nightmare, but leaning next to them were the headless corpses of their accomplices.
The breath of the dead was everywhere here, and the power of resentment was like a trickle of water, being absorbed by the rabbit hairpin pinned on Xu Xianxian's hair.
However, most of the people who died here were ordinary humans. Even if they died with resentment and unwillingness, the resentment they could provide was extremely thin. For her now, it was almost negligible.
Ophelia, who was sleeping, felt a gentle breath coming from beside her, which made the Behemoth War King pause in his movements. Then he slowly woke up from the dream of the game and opened his eyes in a daze.
The Seventh Princess rubbed her eyes and yawned, her innocent appearance carrying the naiveté of a young girl. "Natalie...what time is it now?"
She seemed to have had a very interesting dream just now. In the dream, she was an extremely powerful female warrior with a strong sense of justice. In order to avenge her people, she chopped all the evil dragon ladies and nightmares into pieces.
However, suddenly waking up from such a dream made her feel inexplicably lost.
