They could only issue warnings through loudspeakers.
"Warning! Unidentified personnel below! You have entered a Level 1 combat readiness zone! Kaiju are about to land! Evacuate immediately! Repeat! Evacuate immediately!"
High-decibel electronic sounds echoed in the sea breeze, carrying a hint of noise.
However, Yang Yi on the high platform remained motionless, like a statue blending into the night.
The live broadcast froze at this moment, and the billions of viewers watching instantly went wild.
Online chat rooms, social media platforms, and live stream comment sections were flooded with a massive amount of bullet comments.
"Holy crap, who is that?"
"A real person or a statue?"
Is this some kind of performance art?
Didn't he hear the announcement? Is he deaf?
"Run, man! The monster is really coming!"
"Why aren't you running now? Are you just waiting to die?"
"Is he desperate for fame? Is he risking his life to become an internet celebrity?"
"Why are you still posing at a time like this?"
In the comments section, an ID with the "Japan of Cherry Blossoms" logo made a comment.
"Baka! If you want to die, go die! What are you doing here? You're ruining our view of the mechs fighting monsters!"
“They must be Chinese! That’s just how they are! They love to show off and don’t care about the big picture!” another Japanese person immediately chimed in.
“Exactly, exactly! Chinese people just love to cause trouble for others!” followed closely by a netizen from the United States.
"This is a typical waste of public resources and could also interfere with military operations, which is consistent with their usual practices."
"That's right, it's really damn bad to cause trouble at a time like this."
Netizens from other countries with poor relations with China also sent comments, their words filled with a strange sense of superiority.
China's cyberspace was instantly ignited.
Countless netizens flooded the foreign websites to argue, angrily pounding their keyboards.
"Bullshit! What do you know!"
"Shut your stinking mouths!"
"Perhaps he has his reasons!"
"Why are you insulting all Chinese people?"
However, the response seemed somewhat weak and ineffective.
Because the figure on the screen, with his flowing white robe and golden armor, and his Eastern face, clearly identified him as a Chinese.
Most importantly, his current location is Hong Kong, China.
This has left many Chinese defenders feeling frustrated and lacking confidence.
"Dude, move a little!"
"Even if you don't want to live, don't hand a knife to a foreigner!"
"I'm so worried, we're going to get smeared again."
The propaganda offensive from Western countries is becoming increasingly fierce.
Many countries that do not have their own dedicated mecha bases have long harbored envy and resentment towards Hong Kong's hunter bases, and now they have found an outlet for their frustration.
"If you can't even manage your own country's people, how can you expect to protect the world?"
"PPDC should reassess the eligibility of the Hong Kong base!"
"This kind of country doesn't deserve to have Hunter Mechs!"
The discussion among Chinese netizens was also exceptionally intense, filled with confusion and anxiety.
What exactly is he trying to do?
"Is he really courting death? Someone go save him!"
"The monster is about to come ashore, who has time to rescue him?"
"This location is too dangerous!"
Subsequently, some dissenting voices began to emerge as people carefully observed the details of the footage.
“Look, the place he’s staying is a Taoist temple.”
"His clothes... although he had armor, the white robe on top looked a bit like a Taoist priest's robe?"
"Could he be a Taoist practitioner?"
"Could this Taoist temple be his home, the place where he holds his beliefs?"
This conjecture quickly gained acceptance among some people.
"Possibly! For true cultivators, a Daoist temple must be very important!"
"They don't run away even when monsters come; are they trying to protect their own principles?"
"Defending one's faith with one's life? That's a bit tragic..."
"If that's the case, then he's not just trying to attract attention, but rather..."
Suddenly, public opinion on the internet seemed to be reversing.
Many people have begun to shift their understanding from that of a "fool" or "madman" to that of a "martyr" or "guardian."
Just then, a new comment caught everyone's attention.
The poster claimed to be a former Taoist priest from that temple.
"I will bear with this person."
This message was immediately pinned to the top, and countless people followed up with questions.
“A few days ago, this gentleman contacted us and bought the Taoist temple at a high price.”
"The price is very favorable, far exceeding the market price."
"He also gave each of us a large sum of money to settle down and then dismissed us all."
“He even arranged for us, who were sincere in our pursuit of Taoism, to go to other Taoist temples to continue our practice.”
This statement caused another uproar on the internet, both domestically and internationally.
The public opinion that had just begun to turn around collapsed instantly, replaced by deeper doubts and curses.
"You just bought it a couple of days ago?"
"Buy it at a high price, then lay off everyone?"
"And then today, two level four Kaiju came straight here?"
"This...this is too much of a coincidence!"
On an anonymous foreign forum, conspiracy theories began to proliferate wildly.
"Wait! He arrived here a few days early and bought the Taoist temple!"
"The Kaiju arrived today, and their destination is right here!"
"Could he be a traitor to the monster civilization?!"
This speculation spread as quickly as a virus.
"Holy crap! This is terrifying to think about!"
"Is he sitting there, guiding the monster?"
"Absolutely! Otherwise, how can such a coincidence be explained!"
"Quickly! PPDC! Kill him! Immediately!"
"We can't let him succeed!"
On overseas websites, public sentiment is outraged.
"I knew it! There must have been a problem internally!"
Netizens from the United States have once again jumped out to stir up trouble.
"Even traitors have appeared! A country like this doesn't deserve to have a mecha base!"
"Their base status must be revoked!"
A chorus of agreement arose.
"Yes! Their people have betrayed them at a critical moment of life and death!"
"The people of this country are all too cunning!"
"Our country should immediately raise tariffs on them!"
"Yes! It must be 100%!"
"They must have been secretly making a lot of money off us!"
Various attacks and slanders have emerged one after another.
Amid the chaotic discussion, someone suddenly raised a fundamental question.
"After all this talk, does anyone know him?"
"Who is he?"
Does anyone have his contact information?
"What are his social media accounts? Find him out quickly!"
Countless eyes peered through the screen, focusing on that enigmatic figure at the eye of the storm.
Who is he?
