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

Chapter 40: Jeremy Goes Berserk, Benjamin Steps In



Before Claire could react further.

"Boom!"

Jeremy's already ferocious aura suddenly surged even more violently!

The flames around him quickly turned into a blood-red color, and his overwhelming presence spread rapidly like a tidal wave with Jeremy at its center.

Jeremy slowly turned his head, his crimson eyes locking onto Claire.

In his eyes, there was nothing but hysterical madness and a towering killing intent, devoid of any sanity.

"Jeremy...you..." Claire staggered back in shock.

She could feel that the person in front of her was no longer Jeremy.

But a monster that could choose to devour someone at any moment!

"Roar!!"

The next moment, Jeremy let out an inhuman roar towards the sky.

The ground beneath his feet exploded violently, and his figure instantly disappeared.

The chilling wind lifted Claire's long hair.

Jeremy transformed into a streak of blood light, brushing past her and charging directly towards the monsters in the commercial plaza.

Perhaps it was the last bit of reason that prevented him from striking Claire.

"Jeremy!" Claire shouted Jeremy's name, but received no response.

Only then did she realize that the skill Jeremy had used just now had side effects.

Falling into madness might have been the price he paid.

At this moment, Claire's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

In the commercial plaza, tens of thousands of monsters that saw Jeremy charging like a battle tank, their greed turned into deep fear at some unknown point.

Faced with the furious Jeremy, some of the monsters even began to retreat, attempting to flee.

However, Jeremy didn't give them any chance to escape.

"Boom!!"

He crashed into the masses of monsters like a meteor, instantly turning hundreds of monsters into mush.

The entire commercial plaza seemed to shake.

Then, with Jeremy at the center, the violent red flames spread like a tsunami.

Countless monsters were engulfed by the flames!

Some monsters screamed in fear and fled outward, but many more revealed a bloodthirsty madness in their eyes, charging towards Jeremy.

"Roar roar roar!!!"

Two types of madness collided, monster roars, and screams echoed throughout the commercial plaza.

Jeremy plowed through the monster horde, relying purely on brute force, without any strategy, the dark mass of monsters instantly overwhelmed him.

But it didn't take long for Jeremy to forcefully break out from the pile of monsters, like a raging wild beast, unstoppable.

Claire watched Jeremy, who was like a god of slaughter, feeling somewhat powerless.

She couldn't think of how to rescue Jeremy.

...

In the central building of Moonlight City, inside the mayor's office.

When Benjamin learned from the observer that Jeremy had actually jumped off the commercial building, his heart skipped a beat.

Trouble had struck!

Without hesitation, Benjamin immediately notified Dana and other senior officials.

He urgently said, "Gather all the special forces personnel immediately! Arm yourselves, and follow me to the commercial district! Hurry!"

Dana and the others were still unclear about what had happened.

However, seeing the usually calm Benjamin in such a rush, they knew something serious had occurred.

Dana didn't dare delay, quickly gathering the team and grabbing their gear, heading towards the plaza.

As Benjamin was heading downstairs, he sighed, "Why did this kid have to be so impulsive? If he had just stayed in the commercial building a bit longer, Howard would have arrived soon, and he would have been safe. But instead, he chose the most dangerous way."

Maggie and Eina, standing by, were aware of the Benjamin's high regard for Jeremy.

Maggie shook her head, "After all, he's just a teenager. Having such great power, it's hard to avoid being impulsive."

The others felt the same way, attributing it to his youth. Monsters are not so easy to deal with.

Eina tried to offer some comfort, "Don't worry too much. This young man doesn't seem like one to give up on his life easily. If he did it, he must have been confident."

"Let's hope so." Benjamin sighed deeply.

They knew Eina's words were merely meant to comfort.

Even if Jeremy survived the fall, facing countless monsters on the ground, his chance of survival was next to none.

Now that things had come to this, Benjamin could only hope Jeremy would last until they arrived.

It didn't take long for Benjamin and his team to reach the outside of the central building.

On the plaza, over a thousand special forces in black uniforms were assembled.

They stood solemn and armed to the teeth, exuding a sense of readiness.

These thousand were chosen warriors from Moonlight City, each with extensive combat experience, representing the elite force of the capital.

Yet, Benjamin's expression remained grave.

He was well aware that these thousand men were insignificant in the face of the monsters in the commercial district.

If tens of thousands of monsters charged at them, they would be overwhelmed in the blink of an eye.

But Benjamin had no other options, as Howard still needed time to bring reinforcements.

If he had to watch a talent like Jeremy die before his eyes, Benjamin doubted he could ever forgive himself.

Seeing Benjamin approach, Dana immediately stepped forward.

He reported, "Mayor, everyone is ready!"

Benjamin nodded, stepped forward, and addressed the thousand special forces warriors with a grave voice, "Remember it. No matter the cost, even if it means sacrificing the lives of all of you here, we must rescue Jeremy! Because this young man holds the future of many, his life is even more valuable than all of ours combined!"

Upon hearing Benjamin's words, everyone was visibly shaken.

Dana was also surprised, not expecting Benjamin to place such importance on this young man!

Only Maggie and a few others knew.

It wasn't just Benjamin. Even that high-ranking official in the capital placed great importance on Jeremy!

After speaking, Benjamin scanned the crowd and declared loudly, "Now, those willing to lay down their lives for this cause, step forward. Those who are not, may leave now!"

"Whoosh!"

As soon as Benjamin's words fell, all the special forces personnel stepped forward in unison.

Their gaze was unwavering, not a single person stepped back. Many even had a fervor and anticipation in their eyes.

When they joined the special forces, they were already prepared to face death. In times of peace, they were unnecessary. But now, as the apocalypse descended, it was their time to lay down their lives!

They had been waiting for this moment for a long time!

"Excellent! Worthy of being Moonlight City's special forces!" Benjamin showed a smile on his face.

Then, he turned to Dana beside him and ordered, "Prepare a set of equipment for me. I'm going with you this time!"

Everyone was taken aback.

Benjamin was going too?!

Eina's expression changed, she anxiously said, "What are you going for? Your absence won't make a difference there. But if Moonlight City is without you, wouldn't that lead to chaos?"

Benjamin calmly replied, "If I'm not in the capital, isn't there still you here?"

Benjamin was well aware of his wife's capabilities.

Eina was once a renowned politician in the capital.

Even if he were to die, Benjamin was confident that Moonlight City would not fall into chaos.

Just as everyone was about to persuade Benjamin to think it over.

Suddenly, a global announcement appeared before everyone.

[Congratulations to the player 'Jeremy' for being the first to kill a BOSS in this apocalyptic game!]

[Reward: Special Title: World's First Kill (Legendary)!]

As they read the prompt in front of them, Dana and the others found their words stuck in their throats.

The room fell silent.

Jeremy... had actually killed the BOSS in the commercial district?!

Many showed shocked expressions, hardly believing what they saw.

That was a BOSS!

Among them, many couldn't even defeat ordinary monsters, facing elite monsters meant certain death.

Ninety-nine percent of them had never even seen a Lord-level monster!

Yet, Jeremy had already managed to kill a BOSS!

Benjamin was also stunned for a moment.

Then, he suddenly laughed heartily, "I knew I wasn't wrong about him! This kid will definitely be a pillar for our human race. Surely he will uphold a new era for humanity in this apocalypse!"

Many had complex expressions on their faces.

Now they finally understood why Benjamin placed so much importance on Jeremy!

Dana hesitated, "Mayor... do we still need to go?"

Jeremy had even killed the BOSS, he should be fine.

Without a second thought, Benjamin said, "Of course, we go and bring Jeremy back first."

Having witnessed Jeremy's actions a few times, he had a rough understanding of Jeremy's character.

This was not someone who would stay put, always keeping others on their toes.

If they didn't bring Jeremy back, Benjamin reckoned he wouldn't be able to sleep well.

...

Two kilometers away from the commercial district, on a construction site, Howard's army was rapidly advancing towards the commercial district.

At the same time Jeremy was killing the monster, Howard, Bonnie, and others also suddenly received the notification of Jeremy's kill.

[Congratulations to the player 'Jeremy' for being the first to kill a BOSS in this apocalyptic game!]

"Holy shit! Jeremy got the BOSS first kill!!" Ritchie's shouts filled the armored vehicle.

He was ecstatic, turning to the driver next to him, gesticulating wildly, "Did you see the global announcement? You know, this Jeremy is my brother! Our relationship is very close! If you let me drive this armored vehicle now, I'll have him look out for you in the future, how about that?"
