Chapter 1701: Inescapable Net
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The members of the Azure Alliance reacted extremely quickly.
Realizing that Lu Siya had most likely met with misfortune, they immediately took out a signal flare from their clothes and twisted it with force, shooting dazzling fireworks into the air.
The Dragon City civilization had long entered the digital era, and it had hundreds of methods to instantly transmit ma.s.sive amounts of information wirelessly.
Despite that, during difficult times when monsters were rampant and wars were raging, the wires and cables could be bitten off by the monsters, and the wireless network could also be disturbed by spirit tides. Only an ancient communication method like signal flares could transmit information steadily under most circ.u.mstances.
As expected, when the fireworks in the sky gradually turned into the shape of a blue planet, the members of the Azure Alliance within a radius of three to five kilometers all realized that something was wrong and immediately responded to their companions’ call.
!!
“Something’s wrong!”
“It’s an emergency!”
“Hurry! Lock down this area!”
Meng Chao noticed many ordinary citizens in civilian clothes immediately switch temperaments after they saw the blue planet in the sky. They were like unsheathed sabers, s.h.i.+ning coldly.
They took out their Azure Alliance armbands and badges from their clothes and wore them.
Then, they put a micro-communicator into their ears and opened the emergency communication channel.
Since the Azure Alliance was an organization that could sink the most to the gra.s.sroots level in Dragon City, it could help the citizens the most.
The citizens also had full trust in the members of the Azure Alliance.
Many of the enthusiastic citizens, as well as the nosy middle-aged folks who had nothing better to do, saw the blue armband, and their eyes lit up. They immediately gathered around the members of the Azure Alliance and acted as their a.s.sistants.
After all, Dragon City had just emerged from the flames of war more than a year ago.
Most of the citizens had received long-term military training. They even had experience in fighting monsters in the ruins.
The ordinary citizens of Earth could compare in terms of vigilance, discipline, and organization.
For a moment, the bustling and noisy downtown area was under the control of the Azure Alliance’s members. It was like gradually freezing a water current.
Many vehicles were about to leave the area, but they were stopped by the Azure Alliance members who had serious expressions on their faces.
The drivers were about to complain, but when they looked out and saw the situation outside, they realized that something unusual had happened. They could only remain calm and wait for the inspection.
The Ghost a.s.sa.s.sins from the Blood Alliance had originally wanted to change their appearance, then blend into the traffic and leave with Lu Siya, as well as the two innocent civilians.
But now, they were in a dilemma, and there was nowhere to hide.
Witnessing the scene, Meng Chao was both surprised and worried.
He did not expect the Azure Alliance to have such prestige and control. It seemed like an army that was larger than the Red Dragon Army because it managed to organize the citizens to such an extent.
It also appeared that the tens of thousands of ordinary citizens were not weaklings who had no combat ability and could just pa.s.sively wait for the superhumans to protect them.
It was just that most superhumans paid too much attention to cultivating their own strength in the past. They had never thought of tapping into the ordinary citizens’ potential.
To a certain extent, the Azure Alliance’s greatest value, which was born from its own influence, was not its own combat ability.
In terms of combat, the Azure Alliance did not have enough peerless experts, so it was still not a match for the nine mega corporations.
However, the Azure Alliance could become a fulcrum to mobilize the several dozen million ordinary citizens who formed the Dragon City civilization. It could stimulate their strongest potential and then unite them in the way of the convergence of a hundred rivers!
From the looks of it, the Dragon City civilization led by the Azure Alliance might perform much better in the face of the apocalypse than the Dragon City civilization led by the nine mega corporations.
However, the worry was would the Ghost a.s.sa.s.sins resort to desperate measures since they were blocked by the members of the Azure Alliance and immobilized?
For one, Meng Chao did not want the members of the Azure Alliance to have a conflict with the Ghost a.s.sa.s.sins in the downtown area. No matter what the outcome was, such a conflict would result in the deaths of many innocent citizens.
On top of that, once there was early conflict, Meng Chao would not be able to follow the clues and find the Ghost a.s.sa.s.sins’ lair and locate their mastermind, Yun Feidian!
‘Is this Yun Feidian’s plan?’ Meng Chao muttered to himself in his heart.
‘I wonder if these Ghost a.s.sa.s.sins have a second plan?’
At that moment, the fireworks in the sky and the commotion in the downtown area also alarmed the various factions in the surroundings.
The adjudicator court and the Research Department, which were subordinate to the Supernatural Tower…
The Transportation and Fire Departments…
The Security Departments of the nearby major corporations and universities…
And of course the military as well…
Many disciplinary forces immediately sent their elite troops to surround the downtown area.
If the tables were turned and Meng Chao was the Ghost a.s.sa.s.sin commander, he did not know what other way he could escape under such circ.u.mstances either.
Right then, Meng Chao saw several Azure Alliance members wearing blue armbands approaching a fully enclosed van. It had the Monster Markets logo, but it was being driven by a Ghost a.s.sa.s.sin.
That was because Lu Siya had mysteriously disappeared after a fierce battle in the Monster Market’s back alley.
The fully enclosed van, which had just exited the area, was trying to turn onto the main road. So, the members of the Azure Alliance were naturally suspicious of it.
In theory, the members of the Azure Alliance did not have the authority to enforce the law. They could not stop and inspect the pa.s.sing vehicles.
However, in times of emergency, there were not many ordinary citizens who were willing to take this seriously.
Furthermore, the relevant personnel from the Transportation Department and the Research Department, which belonged to Lu Siya, were nearby.
The members of the Azure Alliance had already informed them of the current situation.
They simply needed to stop the suspicious vehicle for a few minutes to reveal the truth.
Meng Chao noticed a member of the Azure Alliance move forward and gesture at the driver to turn off his crystal engine and step out of the car for inspection.
The other Azure Alliance members had clearly received strict military training. They were either disabled veterans or veteran hunters who had been roaming the wilderness all year round.
They were all seven or eight steps away, maintaining a safe distance and in battle formation. Their grips were neither loose nor tight as they held their hands over their waists and bulging weapons.
Their response was impeccable.
Meng Chao was prepared for the Ghost a.s.sa.s.sin to be cornered and be on the defensive.
At that moment, he suddenly heard a series of faint explosions coming from underground in the downtown area.
“What’s that sound?”
Meng Chao’s pupils suddenly contracted. “Has the underground spirit energy pipeline exploded?”
