Chapter 340 Mom May Be Dying
At the same time, the central district's top management finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
The top management held a video conference with the heads of the top ten families in the central district. After a short half-hour discussion, they finally made a decision—to disclose this information to all safe zones.
In fact, no matter how hard they tried to hide it, they couldn't, because all the safe zones were facing the possibility of being breached by the alien beasts and ultimately falling into enemy hands.
They had to face the reality that the beasts were far more united than humans.
Humans, who were once at the top of the food chain and prided themselves on their high intelligence and advanced civilization, ultimately could not escape the annihilation brought about by selfishness and greed.
Didn't the leaders in the Southern Hemisphere ever consider that after the alien beasts wiped out the humans in the Northern Hemisphere, they would also wipe them out?
No, they must have thought about it.
But what they care about more is the large number of beast cores and wood spirit cores that the beasts promised them. With these, they can quickly cultivate a group of high-level ability users.
They were confident that they would eventually achieve final victory—after the alien beasts wiped out the humans of the Northern Hemisphere for them, they would take advantage of the mutual exhaustion to eliminate the alien beasts as well.
In this way, they would occupy half of the world's resources, including those that once belonged to the alien beasts, with half of the human population.
Furthermore, they were able to obtain crop seeds cultivated by humans in the Northern Hemisphere without spending a single silver coin.
Prior to this, they had negotiated with the Northern Hemisphere leadership for a long time in order to obtain these seeds, but the two sides had not been able to reach a mutually satisfactory result.
In fact, the leaders in the Northern Hemisphere were indeed far too greedy in this matter.
Despite being fellow starving humans, the Northern Hemisphere's leadership showed no regard for the Southern Hemisphere's people, attempting to exchange the crop seeds cultivated by Zuo Shan for massive amounts of resources from the Southern Hemisphere's leadership.
Zuo Shan was unaware of these circumstances, and even the major families in the Northern Hemisphere were kept in the dark.
Even if they knew, they would definitely support the higher-ups' actions, since everyone is in a community of shared interests, and the greed of the powerful families is no less than that of the higher-ups.
It was precisely because of this incident that the higher-ups in the Southern Hemisphere ultimately acquiesced to the actions of the alien beasts.
Everyone's watch rings simultaneously; it's a mandatory announcement that can't be turned off even when muted.
"To all citizens of the safe zones: We now announce some unfortunate news."
Over the past six hours, the Northern Hemisphere has been hit by the most devastating full-scale beast horde attack in history.
All eight vanguard battalions were subjected to continuous attacks by alien beasts, and 32 safe zones adjacent to the alien beast habitats were also attacked by medium-sized beast tides.
You might be wondering, where do all these mutated beasts come from in our Northern Hemisphere?
In fact, all of this is inseparable from the despicable and shameless actions of the higher-ups in the Southern Hemisphere. They tacitly allowed the strange beasts from the Southern Hemisphere to quietly migrate to the Northern Hemisphere and even covered up their whereabouts.
This has caused all the mutated beasts in the world to concentrate in the Northern Hemisphere, and we now have to use half of our population to deal with attacks from mutated beasts all over the planet.
Citizens: The moment of life and death is approaching. I implore everyone with fighting ability to stand up and fight to the death against the monsters for the sake of our elderly and children!
Next, please get to the nearest bus stop as quickly as possible. The authorities will dispatch public transportation to take you to the nearest front line of the beast tide.
When Zuo Shan heard these words, he wondered if he was dreaming.
This kind of pre-battle mobilization was far too simplistic and brutal, leaving no time for people to think.
She certainly wouldn't waste time hesitating, because her son was still on the front lines.
Just then, Xiaobai's communication came through: "Don't worry, I'm currently at the First Vanguard Battalion. I'll wipe out the beast tide here as soon as possible, and then head to the Fourth Vanguard Battalion to pick up my son."
Don't wander off. Just stay in the academy; it's the safest place in the central area. Just protect yourself and our Xi'er, that's enough."
"Okay, don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. Take care of yourself," Zuo Shan said, forcing back her tears.
Such a huge incident occurred, yet Ah Chen didn't give any prior warning. What could be the reason? Could it be that his ability to foresee disasters malfunctioned?
Her mind raced, and suddenly, she thought of a reason.
The reason why Ah Chen did not give an early warning was that he could only sense danger in the very short time before the disaster was imminent.
For example, the great earthquake that occurred on the day he was born, he had sent her a warning signal shortly before the earthquake.
He must have sensed the danger by now, right there on the battlefield.
In fact, Ah Chen did sense danger at this moment, and it was a kind of danger that made him very uneasy.
Ah Chen, who had just killed a Tier 3 mutated beaver with a mental piercing attack, suddenly cried out in terror, "Mom, it's Mom! Mom is in danger!"
Then he tried to call his mother, but the call was busy and could not be connected.
He looked up in despair and saw Bo Yiyan jumping down from the small aircraft to his side.
"Dr. Bo, my mother is in danger! Please, please save her!" Achen cried, tears streaming down her face.
"Your mother? Isn't she at the academy? The academy has the strongest defensive barrier; it's the safest place in the entire central area. She'll be fine," Bo Yiyan reassured her.
He thought the boy had suffered too much trauma on the battlefield, causing him to hallucinate and worry about his mother's safety.
"No, Dr. Bo, I'm not talking nonsense. I can sense danger. It's my special ability, do you understand?" Achen said, his face pale.
"Don't panic, I'll contact her right away. My watch is specially made; as long as there's one satellite in the sky, it can block interference!" Bo Yi said.
Bo Yiyan finally got through to Zuo Shan's communication: "Hello? Where are you?"
"I have already initiated time reversal. I don't know if I can succeed this time, and I don't know if I will be able to wake up if I do succeed."
Please, please save my daughter!
Dr. Bo, thank you!
Bo Yiyan heard her voice grow fainter and fainter as it faded into the distance, especially the last sentence, which sounded as if it came from distant space.
The call was cut off, and subsequent attempts to dial went unanswered. Enraged, Bo Yiyan slammed his fist into the mutated beast that had rushed towards him: "Damn it! Why didn't it answer?"
With nowhere to vent his rage, he finally recklessly used his devouring ability. In an instant, all the strange beasts within three meters of him and Achen collapsed, their bodies going limp.
"Chen, she said she used time reversal, what does that mean?" He grabbed Chen's shoulders and asked.
"Mom might die!" Ah Chen sat on the ground in despair, his eyes glazed over.
Bo Yiyan took out the aircraft, grabbed Achen, and stuffed both of them into the aircraft.
Without hesitation, he piloted the aircraft away. People on the battlefield saw this, but no one expressed anger, nor did anyone linger in the air for even a second longer, because another alien beast was pouncing on them.
