End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues

Chapter 32: The Peril of Moonlight City, Evacuate or Not?



Eina, standing next to him, also understood what this meant.

Her face turned pale, and she said in disbelief, "How could the monsters in the commercial district suddenly riot? Could you have seen it wrong, or was it just a minor disturbance?"

It wasn't beyond the realm of possibility. If a large number of people tried to escape from the commercial district, it could easily trigger a small-scale riot among the monsters, which usually ended quickly. Perhaps this was just a false alarm.

Dana gave a wry smile, "It's absolutely true. This time it's different from before. It's a real riot! Just now, tens of thousands of monsters in the square of the commercial district suddenly started converging on one spot, even that BOSS was drawn over!"

"How is that possible..." Hearing this, even Benjamin's face turned a bit pale.

Now, with the apocalypse just upon them, these monsters hadn't fully unleashed their potential.

Originally, as long as the military arrived, there was still a chance for recovery.

But if the monsters in the commercial district were to riot now, the situation, which was still under control, could be disrupted. Eventually, it could lead to a domino effect, and the entire Moonlight City might fall because of it.

Eina decisively said, "We can't stay here any longer. Notify everyone immediately to evacuate the City Hall!"

The City Hall was only a few kilometers away from the commercial district. If the monsters began their attack, they would be the first area to be impacted.

Benjamin clenched his fists, grinding his teeth, "Why does it have to be now? Just a little more time, and the army would have arrived!"

If the military came, even if they couldn't clear all the monsters in Moonlight City, they could at least reclaim the central areas of the city.

Then, retaking Moonlight City would just be a matter of time.

However, this little bit of time had plunged them directly from heaven into hell.

Dana sighed, "At this point, we can only try to minimize the losses."

Eina had already picked up the phone, ready to notify the departments to evacuate.

Suddenly, Dana's phone rang.

Seeing the caller, he didn't care about the situation and hurriedly answered.

He anxiously asked, "What's the situation in the commercial district? Has it improved?"

Benjamin and Eina both looked over, knowing that it must be new information from the commercial district.

They listened carefully, hoping that the sudden riot in the commercial district would soon subside.

But contrary to their wishes.

A bitter voice came through the phone.

He said, "The situation has gotten worse. Now, all the monsters in the commercial district are restless!"

The three of them turned pale instantly.

Things were moving in the direction they least wanted to see.

Then, the observer on the other end hesitated a bit and said, "However, there's something odd about this situation... We seem to have discovered the cause of the monster riot in the commercial district."

The scene they had witnessed was so shocking that even the observer was somewhat unsure.

Upon hearing this, the three in the office all frowned.

The observer's cryptic words left them at a loss, unable to guess what had actually happened.

Dana angrily said, "What do you mean 'seems like'? Make it clear to me!"

The observer, bracing himself, said, "The riot in the commercial district might have been triggered by one person. It was him who agitated the monsters in the commercial district..."

Dana interrupted him before he could finish, scolding, "You're telling me one person attracted tens of thousands of monsters? Are you fucking kidding me?"

The observer didn't respond. He too was at a loss for words.

Shortly after, Dana received a video on her phone.

The video was somewhat blurry, taken from a distance, and lasted only about a dozen seconds.

But what the video showed left all three in the office completely dumbfounded.

Because in the video was Jeremy, weaving through tens of thousands of monsters as if he was in a realm all his own.

The youth moved through the masses of monsters with a ghost-like agility, dodging their attacks with swift and nimble movements. He brushed with death several times, yet not a single monster could lay a finger on him.

The three exchanged stunned looks, seeing the disbelief in each other's eyes.

This scene was indeed a shock to their understanding.

Dana said through clenched teeth, "This guy must be a high-level player, daring to venture into the commercial district with a bit of skill, utterly reckless! Now who knows how many will die because of his actions!"

Benjamin remained silent, just watching Jeremy on the screen with a furrowed brow.

Eina reminded, "This young man probably won't last long before the monsters tear him to pieces. We need to leave."

Benjamin suddenly said, "Wait."

"What?" Eina and Dana looked at Benjamin, puzzled, thinking they had misheard.

Benjamin lifted his head, his voice grave, "If we evacuate, the entire Moonlight City will become a playground for the monsters. With millions of monsters in Moonlight City, once they gain momentum... by then, not just Howard, but even if a general came with troops, taking back Moonlight City would be impossible!"

Eina frowned, "But it's too late to change anything. It won't be long before the monsters break through. Staying here to sacrifice ourselves is pointless!"

Benjamin firmly said, "It's not over until the last moment. There might still be a chance."

"A chance?" Eina was taken aback, then pointing at Jeremy on the screen, asked incredulously, "You aren't seriously hoping this young man can hold off tens of thousands of monsters until Howard and the others arrive, are you?"

Benjamin looked at them, countering, "If he can survive the onslaught of tens of thousands of monsters, why can't he hold them off?"

At that moment, the two felt that Benjamin had gone mad.

That was tens of thousands of monsters, not something a human could hold off!

Even if the young man had miraculously survived the monsters' onslaught, what then?

Let alone holding them off for an hour or two, it would be a miracle if he lasted a few minutes before being devoured by the monsters, bones and all.

They wanted to dissuade him, but Benjamin had made up his mind.

He calmly said, "No need to say more. I am the mayor of the Moonlight City. If even I give up on the Moonlight City, then it truly is over."

Eina and Dana fell silent upon hearing this.

Indeed, if even they gave up, then the Moonlight City truly was finished.

...

At this moment, Jeremy was still unaware of the huge commotion he had caused.

Leaping around the exterior of the building, he could clearly see inside the building through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

At a glance, the building was littered with corpses and various monsters, a sight too gruesome to bear.

There were a few people on some floors, but very few, just a scattered handful, all looking haggard and listless.

Most of them didn't notice Jeremy's fleeting presence outside the window, and even if they did, they likely thought they were seeing things.

Jeremy climbed quickly, reaching over thirty floors in no time.

At this point, he had to slow down because those disgusting Skyrakers had come again.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!!!" One after another, the Skyrakers flapped their wings mid-air, emitting angry shrieks.

They looked at Jeremy with hatred in their eyes and then charged at him in waves.

Clearly, these were the same Skyrakers Jeremy had encountered before.

"What a bunch of spiteful creatures." Jeremy muttered, his body agile as he swiftly flipped into the commercial building.

While dodging the Skyrakers' attacks, he pulled out a submachine gun from his storage space and turned around to spray bullets at the swarming Skyrakers.

The sound of gunfire erupted in the sky.

However, learning from their last encounter, these Skyrakers had become smarter.

As soon as they saw Jeremy with a gun, they scattered instantly.

Jeremy emptied his magazine but only managed to bring down a few Skyrakers.

"Troublesome." Jeremy frowned, deciding not to bother with these Skyrakers anymore.

But as soon as he tried to climb further up, the Skyrakers would gather around and launch another attack on him.

After several such instances, veins started to bulge on Jeremy's forehead.
