Chapter 504 Why is it you?
Above the Qinling Mountains.
The dark purple energy vortex stopped spinning.
The wind stopped.
The clouds have stopped.
An invisible energy shock descended vertically from the center of the vortex.
The ground suddenly shook.
The mountains within a radius of a hundred miles seemed to have sunk.
The energy monitoring equipment surrounding Baiyujing flashed violently and emitted a piercing alarm sound.
Air defense positions.
All heavy multiple rocket launcher vehicles simultaneously adjusted their elevation angles.
The radar locked onto the center of the vortex.
The soldiers' fingers were gripping the launch button, their palms sweating.
The central dome of Baiyujing.
Chen You opened his eyes.
He stopped circulating the "Undying Star Technique" and stood up from the ground.
The next second, his figure disappeared from the dome.
Qinling Second Command Center.
Chen You strode into the hall.
Li Guoan stood in front of the huge tactical screen, his hands behind his back.
Zhang Yunhai, Sun Feng, and others were typing on their keyboards at their respective workstations.
"The energy peak has broken through the critical point!" Sun Feng stared at the red line on the screen, his voice trembling slightly. "The opponent could materialize and descend at any moment."
Chen You leaned closer to Li Guoan and lowered his voice: "Director Li, let's talk about something."
Li Guoan turned to look at him.
"Should we turn off the live stream?" Chen You pointed to the view of the high-altitude probe on the screen. "All of humanity is watching this thing."
Li Guoan shook his head: "It can't be shut down."
"The global panic needs an outlet, and it also needs a preventative measure."
"It's not Director Li, think about it." Chen You scratched his head. "I'm only in the late Foundation Establishment stage."
"That thing up there can even modify the underlying code of the Source Realm. What if I lose and get completely crushed? It's not just me who loses face, but what about the reputation of our Chinese nation?"
He paused, his expression becoming extremely complex: "Let's take a step back and say..."
"What if that lunatic called 'Invincible Beauty' really decides to 'cultivate' with me in front of the whole world..."
"How am I supposed to face people after this? I might as well just swallow a sword and kill myself."
Li Guoan turned to Chen You, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
"If things really get to the point of no return, I will cut off the signal. You just need to test their bottom line; the country is behind you."
Chen You sighed.
Forget it, I might not even be able to save my life, so why bother about being innocent?
He flipped his wrist.
A flash of light appeared, and a dazzling Taoist robe appeared in his hand.
【Fortune, Prosperity, Opening Heaven, Sky Heron Set】.
This is the Mythic set he obtained during the game's anniversary event.
Although it's unclear how much practical use game equipment has in real life, wearing it always provides an extra layer of psychological comfort.
Chen You took off his coat and put on the Tianlu suit piece by piece.
The silver-white breast protector was fastened.
The arm guards, adorned with intricate spiritual patterns, fit snugly against the arm.
A pair of combat boots radiating pale blue spiritual energy stepped onto the ground.
Finally, he carried the Jade Emperor Twin Swords on his back.
"I'm gone."
Chen You turned and headed towards the exit.
……
United Nations conference room.
In the holographic projection, the dome of Baiyujing was completely empty.
A commotion broke out in the conference room.
"Where is he? Where did that Chinese immortal go?" Jason suddenly stood up, pointing at the screen. "He ran away? Your trump card deserted at the last minute?"
The French representative adjusted his glasses: "Faced with apocalyptic-level energy fluctuations, human fear is instinctive."
"I understand."
The representative from the country got up from the carpet.
He dusted off his suit and sneered, "I knew it! What immortal? It's just a hoax created by holographic projection!"
"There's too much energy interference right now; is the projection equipment malfunctioning?"
Representatives from various countries turned to look at Zhao, the representative from China.
Representative Zhao leaned back in his chair, holding a thermos.
He didn't look at anyone else; his gaze remained fixed on the holographic projection.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please be patient." Representative Zhao unscrewed the lid of his cup, blew on the steam, and said, "The sky hasn't fallen yet."
Jason slammed his hands on the table, about to retort.
A clear, sharp sound rang out from the conference room's loudspeakers.
Everyone turned to look at the screen at the same time.
In the scene, a golden sword light shot into the sky from the edge of Baiyujing.
Chen You, dressed in the Heavenly Heron Suit and standing on the Jade Emperor Sword, hovered directly above the White Jade Capital.
The silver-white Taoist robe emitted a strange, seven-colored glow under the dark purple light of the sky.
He stood with his hands behind his back, staring directly at the enormous vortex above his head.
The meeting room fell silent instantly.
Jason's mouth was open, but the sound was stuck in his throat.
The representative from the country trembled and slumped back into his chair.
This is not a holographic projection at all.
Even through the screen, they could feel the terrifying aura emanating from that young man.
Above the Qinling Mountains.
Chen You stepped on the sword.
The night wind made my robes flutter.
A collision of two dimensions.
The survival of all mankind.
These words went through Chen You's mind once.
He took a deep breath and mobilized the liquid pure yang spiritual energy within his body.
The pressure from the late Foundation Establishment stage was released without reservation.
The surrounding air began to distort.
Golden spiritual energy formed a tangible halo around his body.
A black crack appeared at the center of the vortex.
The cracks widened to both sides.
A bright light shone from inside, so bright that it was impossible to open one's eyes.
The eyes of the world are focused on this moment.
A foot stepped out from the crack.
It was a pair of dark gold combat boots.
He shattered the void.
The dark purple vortex shuddered suddenly, and countless fine black spatial cracks spread outwards like a spider web.
Above the Qinling Mountains, the gravitational field was completely disrupted at this moment.
Step out with the second foot.
A towering, three-zhang-tall body squeezed out completely from the crack.
He was clad in ancient, dark gold divine armor and held a long halberd with a restrained radiance.
His hair was loose, and his eyes sparkled like stars.
Immediately afterwards, two slightly shorter armored guards wielding greatswords emerged from behind him and stood on either side.
There is no health bar like in the game.
There is no ID displayed above the head.
There is only a pure and extreme sense of oppression.
Chen You stood on the Jade Emperor Sword, his eye twitching slightly.
He knows this person.
Or rather, this NPC.
Although the clothes have been changed to armor, the design is absolutely correct.
The City of Gods, Level 100 City Lord, Yuranos.
Chen You's grip on the sword loosened for a moment.
The taut string in my mind snapped in an instant.
He stared at Euranos's majestic face, with only one thought in his mind.
Where's the invincible beautiful girl I was promised?
Why is it you?
The government has even prepared me psychologically, Director Li has even arranged a global live broadcast, and I've even come up with the mindset of sacrificing my looks to save all of humanity.
And you sent me this wretched old man?
Euranos lowered his head, his star-like eyes locking onto Chen You in mid-air.
He was silent for two seconds.
It seemed somewhat unexpected, yet also felt perfectly natural.
A grand sound resounded, carrying a special resonance of laws, causing the mountains and forests below to rustle.
"It seems... to have happened a little earlier than expected."
