"Jiang Chuan!"

Just as a bad premonition arose in my mind, Nan Qianxia's slightly anxious voice sounded from behind me.

here we go again……

At this moment, Jiang Chuan couldn't help but rub his eyebrows tiredly.

Why is this guy always the more alert one when something unexpected happens?

But it doesn’t matter… Nan Qianxia is on my side anyway.

"What happened?"

"Again, see for yourself."

Minami Chinatsu walked quickly to the sofa, and her watery eyes glanced intentionally or unintentionally at Mrs. Hayakawa and Ando Haruyuki, who were leaning on both sides of Jiang Chuan on the sofa with their clothes a little messy, and a blush appeared on her pink cheeks.

But the blush soon disappeared, and her little hand took out a tablet computer from behind her and handed it to Jiang Chuan.

After the latter took the computer, he found that a video had already been opened on the screen, but the pause button had been pressed.

It's news again.

Most of the breaking news nowadays is...

Jiang Chuan was just about to reach out and click on the video to play it, when the live broadcast screen in front of them, which had been flashing with a flowery screen, suddenly turned into a ball of white. The next moment, it instantly recovered and changed from the original competition venue in the front to the commentary box in the back.

The tablet computer in his hand was also taken away by Minami Qianxia.

“You should just watch this.”

Is it true...

By now, Jiang Chuan had realized that something extraordinary might have happened at the London competition venue on the other side of the Earth.

"Dear viewers, thank you for your long wait. Now we have received some very shocking news, which we have just learned."

After the picture appeared, Wen Duoduo, who was sitting in the center of the commentary seat, spoke in a trembling voice.

"Just as the S14 World Finals were being held at the North Greenwich Arena in London, a sudden catastrophic incident occurred, causing more than % of the dome of the venue to collapse, and the ongoing finals were forced to be interrupted!"

"As of now, we are unable to confirm the situation of those present. Please do not believe in rumors and follow official news."

"The live broadcast of the World Championship will therefore be suspended. If there is any news from London, we will provide you with the news as soon as possible. We also pray that all the players, event staff and spectators present are safe and sound."

"..."

As soon as the words fell, the live broadcast signal was interrupted. What appeared on the TV screen again was no longer a chaotic colorful screen, but a short line of gray fonts: "Live broadcast has ended."

Seeing this, Jiang Chuan turned around again and looked at Nan Qianxia beside him with some confusion.

Because Jiang Chuan was watching the commentary of the Chinese broadcasting station, although Nan Qianxia, ​​who was being watched by him, did not understand Chinese, she could clearly understand that there was not much information contained in the live broadcast room just based on the few short sentences that were just cut off.

So he sighed.

"Sorry, you should watch this."

Nan Qianxia handed the tablet to Jiang Chuan again.

It’s still the same video, but compared to the official live broadcast room where people sit upright and speak a few formulaic words, the video recorded by the people at the scene with their own mobile phones is obviously more authentic.

Such videos have swept the entire world's Internet.

[A giant black monster suddenly attacked the North Greenwich Stadium in London in the evening local time! ]

[Neon Island reappears, giant monsters descend, is it an invasion from the Pacific Rim world line? ! ]

News pieces kept refreshing like machine guns.

Compared with this world-shaking event, the e-sports competition that came to an abrupt end at the most critical moment seemed somewhat insignificant. Even the fans who were originally concerned about the outcome of the game now focused their attention on the giant monster that seemed to be more worthy of attention.

The same is true for Jiang Chuan.

However, the reason why he paid attention to the giant monster was not because he was worried that the outside world would be invaded by monsters, but because the figure of the giant monster was extremely familiar to him.

It's as if I just saw it last night...

That's right, he didn't need to look very carefully to easily recognize that it was the huge mother monster that almost razed the town he had worked so hard to build to the ground outside the town last night.

After being diverted by the giant scarecrow, how did this thing appear in the real world in just one day and one night?

And not only that, it was in London, on the other side of the world.

Even though he was confused, since this thing had left the island and was far away from his world, there was naturally no need to worry. Since he couldn't figure out the reason, there was no need to delve into it.

…………

Until late at night, Jiang Chuan lay on the big bed holding Ando Haruyuki's soft body, feeling the steady breathing of the beauty beside him, and felt a little unable to sleep.

After all, I was still watching the game enthusiastically in the first half of the night, looking forward to the match between the two sides in the fifth round after the battle song sounded, but I didn't expect it to come to an abrupt end at the critical moment.

It's really hard to accept.

Now that I think about it, with such a shocking event happening at the competition venue, this unfinished competition may never have a result. After all, in the eyes of the outside world, what does the outcome of a game mean to human society?

So Jiang Chuan picked up his cell phone from beside the pillow.

After the signal was restored, although Jiang Chuan was not addicted to browsing his phone all day like he used to, he had to admit that this thing was indeed very convenient, provided there was an internet connection.

However, when he opened the social platform, he found a large number of latest news updated.

[After destroying the North Greenwich Stadium, the giant monster was blocked by the ruins of the stadium and changed direction. It has now entered the Thames and is moving slowly downstream.]

[After trying, the local police were unable to effectively harm the monster and are currently evacuating the city. Fortunately, the monster does not seem to have any plans to come ashore. There is currently no news of the military's actions.]

[When the North Greenwich Stadium collapsed due to the monster attack, a world-class e-sports competition was being held in the stadium. Thanks to the efforts of the local fire department, most of the civilians watching the game outside the stadium have been successfully evacuated, but a small number of event staff, some club personnel and competition players are still trapped in the center of the stadium. Firefighters are doing their best to rescue them. ]

[As of now, it can be basically confirmed that the people trapped inside the venue are: several referees and on-site staff of the competition, OFF players of a certain club, and all the coaching staff of the club. I hope they are safe and sound. Let us pray for them together.]

After reading the latest news from the scene, Jiang Chuan also felt very sorry, knowing that under such circumstances, even the players and coaching staff were already in danger, and this game was destined to have no follow-up.

“…My youth is finally over.”

Jiang Chuan put down his phone, looked at the dim white ceiling in the silent room, and slowly closed his eyes.

----------

Outside the venue, London.

"Brother Xianghe?"

"Hmm? Minxi, what's wrong?"

"Haha, sorry, it's too dark in here, not sure if it's you."

Keria scratched her head and then handed a bottle of mineral water to Lee Sang Hyuk.

"Brother, drink some water."

"Thank you."

Li Xianghe took the bottle of mineral water but did not open it.

Looking at the various vehicles with flashing red and blue lights and the people coming and going in front of him, he tightened the blanket around him, turned around, found a seat on a bench by the river, and slowly sat down.

Around him, his teammates and team members were using their cell phones to call their families and colleagues to let them know they were safe.

Not far from him, there was another group of people sitting on another bench.

Among the group of people, a tall, fat boy with permed hair and eyes squeezed into two slits was also wrapped in a blanket. He held a bottle of the same mineral water in his hand, and sat motionlessly on a bench, silently looking at the venue in front of him.

The crowd around him was smaller in number and was obviously confused and panicked. From time to time, someone would quickly run towards the rescue vehicles outside the venue, and then pace back and forth anxiously, holding the phone.

Li Xianghe turned his head and glanced at the tall and fat boy on the bench on the other side, then quickly looked away.

He unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle in his hand and drank the mineral water by the Thames at night, feeling the regret that seemed insignificant.

Inside the stadium, the high platform that originally held the glittering metal summoner's trophy was now covered by a huge piece of dome debris.

Chapter 277 Spring in Spring, Snow in Snow

Jiang Chuan woke up as soon as the sun rose.

He gently took the arm away from his body, then quietly got up from the bed.

The episode of the previous day had ended. Waking up from his sleep late at night, Jiang Chuan took another look at the latest news. The huge meat mountain that spanned the entire earth was ultimately unable to leave the winding Thames River. Under the fierce attack of Western planes, artillery and drones, it eventually turned into a giant mass in the river.

In a video shot by a distant passerby from a high-rise building, Jiang Chuan was able to see that after a series of intensive cluster missile attacks, the huge black meat mountain submerged in the Thames finally fell silent, and then suddenly a thick black smoke drifted out from above and drifted towards the horizon...

Many people saw the sudden appearance of the black smoke, but they didn't know what it was, so they fell into another round of speculation, with all kinds of theories about gods, ghosts and monsters emerging one after another. Only Jiang Chuan knew the true identity of the black smoke.

The power of despair of those mother bodies that died in his hands before was concentrated in the despair crystal cores in their bodies, and the dead remnants naturally gathered there as well, while those ordinary zombies had too little power of despair.

And this huge mother mountain of flesh... If you have to say it, this thing should be a large collection of zombies, just like the Scarecrow Ultraman summoned by the black scarecrow. There is no qualitative change, but a simple and pure quantitative change.

In this case, it means that after death, the trace of despair contained in all ordinary zombies will most likely escape from the body just like the huge mountain of meat in the video.

As for where the dissipated power of despair went, Jiang Chuan didn't want to know, but he could basically guess it.

After all, apart from that woman named Seventy-Seven, who else could recover the power of despair in this way?

After the incident in London ended, the huge mountain of meat suddenly appeared for unknown reasons and eventually disappeared into the Thames. In fact, apart from the destruction of the venue, no large-scale casualties were caused.

The only casualties were the few people trapped in the center of the venue reported in the news last night. It was a pity that they were unable to get out in the end.

After returning to the living room and washing up in the bathroom, Jiang Chuan made himself a cup of coffee, which was rare. Then he took the cup and slowly sat down on a recliner at the door of the villa.

The farm space was quiet and silent in the early morning. Even the bionic people had not started working yet. They were waiting to charge in their respective corners. The stars and the full moon were still visible in the dim sky, and there was a faint orange light on the horizon.

Jiang Chuan leaned back in the recliner and slowly took out his cell phone from his pocket.

Jiang Chuan opened the dial-up interface of his mobile phone and entered the familiar number again, just as he had done at the beginning of the apocalypse.

It's just that at that time, every time he entered a number, he would eagerly press the dial button, and then pray that the other party would answer, but the result was always the same disappointment.

But today, after entering the number, he was unable to make the call.

He lit a cigarette, turned off the screen of his mobile phone and put it to his chest, then leaned his head back against the backrest of the recliner behind him.

Just looking at the morning sky.

"The moon is quite round..."

In his hometown, the full moon seems to represent family reunion.

After putting out the cigarette, Jiang Chuan picked up the phone from his chest again.

The time in the upper right corner is not yet seven o'clock.

Yes, although they always get up very early, the time zone here is one hour faster than there.

No, from the outside world's perspective, hasn't this world already disappeared once? In that case, are things like time zones really still the same as before?

No, no, no, it doesn't matter. Why should I think about this kind of thing...

Jiang Chuan rubbed his eyebrows and sighed helplessly.

He knew he was nervous and held the phone anxiously. However, unlike adolescent children who were hesitant to call their beloved members of the opposite sex, Jiang Chuan was nervous because of worry.

As I disappeared for half a year, just as I would keep trying to contact them in Tokyo at the end of the world, they would definitely try to contact me again and again in the outside world, and so far, half a year has passed.

Even when facing the all-out attack from the Countermeasures Bureau and the Zombie Matrix the night before, Jiang Chuan was not as nervous and scared as he is now.

In the end, what can influence us is not our own circumstances.

Jiang Chuan finally decided not to delay any longer. He stood up from the bench, slowly walked through the rows of fruit trees and farmland in front of him, crossed the forest path, and finally stood at the coast of the farm space.

I took out my phone and made up my mind.

However, just as his finger was about to touch the green dial button on the screen, there was a sudden vibration, and the original dial interface turned into caller ID.

And what was displayed on the caller ID interface was the number that he had just entered...

At this point, even Jiang Chuan couldn't help but start to tremble his fingers.

He took several long, deep breaths and finally pressed the answer button.

---------

Waking up from the big bed in the room, Ando Haruyuki stretched out his white and tender arms and subconsciously reached out to hug the person next to him, but found nothing.

I rubbed my sleepy eyes and opened them, only to find that there was no one next to me. I couldn't help feeling a little empty.

"……husband?"

Ando Haruyuki sat up in a daze.
