688: Return to peace

Chapter 688: Returning to Calm

Although the news from this side couldn't be spread out,

the Weeping Statue's enormous body was far too conspicuous.

Observations of the situation here began immediately.

It was instantly clear that the situation was dire.

Coupled with previous reports... news spread like wildfire!

This was a colossal crisis! It involved all of humanity and threatened the real world!

No one could remain an outsider!

Everyone would be swept away in this 'wave of crisis'!

However, that was something for those on the outside to worry about.

For those still near the Weeping Statue, it was best to first think about how to save their lives!

The Weeping Statue's movements appeared slow, but in reality, they were not slow at all, precisely because it was so huge!

When it moved, a swing of its arm covered a range of tens of meters.

Moreover, its eyes could emit 'lasers,' which possessed extremely terrifying destructive power.

However, it seemed to keep moving forward and did not use its laser eye again.

It had only attacked Gu Yu once before, destroying that black box.

And now, the Weeping Statue had not fired its laser again.

It also ignored the Demon Hunters who were haphazardly attacking it with 'Magic Crystal Weapons.'

Yes, these weapons were all produced by Gu Yu's studio.

After all, Gu Yu's technology was getting better and better, and her weapons were good quality, inexpensive, and highly cost-effective!

And the more expensive the weapon, the better it worked!

If you didn't know what to buy or what was good, you could just close your eyes and buy the most expensive one; that would be enough.

This was the reputation and quality of Gu Yu's studio!

"It seems to have a purpose!" Lily frowned slightly, looking at the Weeping Statue. It appeared to be continuously attacking the Exorcists in front of it.

But in reality, it was steadily walking forward, advancing firmly in one direction.

It was just that there happened to be annoying 'flies' in its path, so it would constantly drive them away.

If attacks were dodged, it didn't pursue them; it was as if it would hit if it could, and if not, it would just carry on with what it was doing.

Anyway, it just casually attacked while walking along its path.

"Where is it going?" Lily couldn't help but wonder, tracing the direction of its advance. She thought for a moment but couldn't come up with anything.

"Never mind where the Weeping Statue is going... as it moves, the Inner World's encroachment is accelerating!" Gu Yu said.

Lily turned her head to look, only to see that the dark red fissure, once expanded, had not shrunk back.

And the dark red substance that had previously retreated was now not only rapidly expanding, its area had already surpassed what it was before the Weeping Statue emerged.

Ye Zian looked at the Weeping Statue, feeling a sudden despair.

No, how am I supposed to fight this thing?! Ye Zian was somewhat resentful of his own weakness.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

At this moment, streaks of light flew through the air.

Ye Zian looked closely and realized they were missiles!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

No carbon-based life form can withstand the impact of 'firepower'!

Unfortunately, this Weeping Statue was not a carbon-based life form.

And it was unknown what 'base' it was, but the bombardment of these missiles did indeed make it stop in its tracks.

Dozens of high-yield missiles continuously struck the Weeping Statue, and the terrifying force finally caused its body to fall backward.

Unable to support itself, the Weeping Statue fell face up.

Boom!!!

The Weeping Statue crashed to The Ground, its massive weight causing a tremor.

At this moment, the dark red substance suddenly accelerated, directly spreading over the Weeping Statue.

Subsequently, a large amount of 'sludge' gushed out from the Weeping Statue, completely enveloping it.

Gradually, the sludge became smaller and smaller, and along with it, the Weeping Statue also disappeared.

"It's gone?!" Ye Zian's eyes widened as he stared at the vanished Weeping Statue. He couldn't help but scratch his head, very puzzled.

And the expanding dark red substance stopped expanding. Everything seemed to return to normal, except for these dark red substances.

Exorcists gathered, looking at the situation with confusion... If you walked into the dark red substance, you could feel 'the world change,' confirming without a doubt that it was the Inner World!

But one could naturally emerge from the dark red substance and return to the real world.

This area had been completely 'encroached' upon.

Although it was unknown why, the Inner World had stopped its encroachment and expansion.

The dark red fissure still existed.

No one dared to investigate...

This area, at least tens of thousands of square meters in size, was encroached upon, and a large number of troops and Exorcists slowly arrived as reinforcements.

They established lines of defense outside.

This area had been designated as a restricted zone and a key area of concern.

Fortunately, civilians and the like had all been evacuated.

Even areas further away had begun to be evacuated.

No one knew when these dark red substances would continue to expand...

At that time, they were afraid that you would be 'encroached' upon in your sleep.

So, who would dare to stay there any longer!

Those who don't run are like this (gives a thumbs up).

Everything suddenly returned to calm, but the people in the real world were not calm.

In the Cross-World Group.

"Help! Everyone! This is what happened! Does anyone know what to do?!" Ye Zian wailed in the Cross-World Group.

He sent a video of his previous experience to the group, letting everyone see what was going on.

"Hmm~ We don't understand the specific situation of your world!" Yi Xin scratched his head. Every world has its own rules, and besides, everyone in the group basically knew nothing about Ye Zian's world.

Firstly, Ye Zian joined relatively late; secondly, nothing much had ever happened in his world; and thirdly, Ye Zian was 'too weak' and didn't often post, unlike Chen Mu.

Chen Mu was truly good at chatting in the group and could talk to anyone. Not only that, he was also very good at playing the straight man... Naturally, although he was also very weak, his presence in the group was not low, plus the entertainment from Lan Xing World was very popular leisure material in the Cross-World Group.

So Chen Mu was quite a noticeable character in the Cross-World Group.

In contrast, Ye Zian was the type where people knew he existed and was in the group, but they truly weren't 'familiar' with him.

Unfamiliar in all aspects.

"It's okay, if something really goes wrong, just find everyone immediately! We'll go help you." Lin Zifeng said to Ye Zian with a smile: "No matter what, the Cross-World Group has your back, right?

If all else fails, just let the big sister take over. Guaranteed to be effective immediately!"

"..." Ye Zian scratched his head: "Hmm, okay..."

He also had no other choice; asking the Cross-World Group for help meant he was somewhat panicked.

"You just wait and see for now~ If there's anything fun, call me! I'll come take a look~" Allie popped up at this moment.
