Chapter 41 41· "Like sunshine, breaking through the night."

October 19, 2024, 12:01 noon Eastern Time - one minute has passed since the Eastern Kingdom announced to the world the arrival of the Doomsday Era.

The country of great gentry.

The time at this time was around nine o'clock in the evening.

In a villa that had been rented for a day, a group of teenagers and girls in their prime were gathered in front of the TV, watching the press conference.

Most of them are students from the Eastern Kingdom studying in the Great Gentlemen.

But not all, there are also a small number of non-Eastern people.

They were good friends made by these Dongren at Dashen. In addition, these people were indeed somewhat interested in this live broadcast, so they came to participate in this event that could barely be regarded as a party.

Chi Yan was holding her best friend's hand tightly at this time, and the nails of both parties were almost digging into each other's flesh, but neither of them seemed to notice it.

They were all staring at the screen intently.

Staring at Mr. No. 1 on the screen who is talking to all the touching people.

They couldn't believe it.

"What happened, Zach, why didn't you translate for us?"

Neal Dodge, the great gentleman, turned to ask.

The gentleman does not understand Eastern, and the live broadcast does not have subtitles, so of course you need a translator to watch the live broadcast, otherwise you will not understand it just by looking at the screen.

And now, the Dongren friend who was responsible for the 'simultaneous translation' for these gentlemen seemed to have not heard their words at this moment, staring straight at the TV.

He seemed very focused, but his eyes seemed empty.

"Zach? Zach? Are you okay?"

Seeing Zach's strange state, Dodge quickly stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him.

On the gentry's side, a man named Zach seemed to have come back to his senses. He looked at Dodge blankly:

"It's... it's... the end."

"What?"

Because Zach spoke very quietly, Dodge, who didn't hear clearly, put his ear closer and asked again.

"It's...the end of the world...is coming." Zach's voice was still hollow and did not get louder.

But because he put his ears closer this time, Dodge finally heard clearly.

He was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, stretched out his hand and patted Zach's shoulder hard:

"Shet, are you bullying us for not knowing Dong? Come on, Zach, tell me, what happened to your Dong, you also know, we don't hate Dong here, there is nothing we can't talk about."

Dodge said seriously.

The setup for this joke is pretty funny - Dodge thought.

Then he felt something strange:

He had just slapped so hard that Zach's coat slipped off. However, Dodge found that Zach, who was usually smart and smart, not only had no reaction to this, but even held his head with both hands, holding him back. A well-cared-for hairstyle completely messed up.

"No...no lies, the end...the end is really...really coming."

Dodge heard a murmur under his arm.

"I told you, this joke is not funny, hey, Lu..." Seeing that Zach insisted on continuing the joke, Dodge shrugged helplessly and had no choice but to look at the other Dongguo people present, hoping to find the real answer.

But then, he discovered that almost all the Dongguo people were in the same state at the moment.

Shocked, confused, panicked.

These emotions gradually appeared on their faces.

But one of the Easterners laughed.

But that smile seemed unusual to Dodge.

He seemed to want to smile and say something contemptuous, but he just smiled and turned his head left and right, opening and closing his mouth, but said nothing.

He looked at Jing Liu, a Dongguo native known for his big heart, whose foreign name was Mike.

After seeing that the other party seemed to have recovered, he immediately stepped forward and grabbed the other party's shoulders:

"Hey, Mike, please translate for us. What did your leader from the Eastern Kingdom just say? Please! Tell me!"

"yes……"

In the corner of the sofa, where Chi Yan was, she was no better.

Her brain has completely shut down.

"Mr. Hope", "Predictive Dream", "Natural Disaster Chronicle", "Ice Disaster", "Earthquake Disaster"...

These completely unimaginable words completely overwhelmed her head.

Why did the world suddenly end? Isn’t that something that only exists in movies and novels?

The average temperature is 50 or 60 degrees below zero. How cold must it be?

There are also constant deadly hails. How painful would it be to hit your body?

Could it be a mistake? This kind of thing cannot be true, right?

It's definitely fake, right?

Could this be an April Fool's joke from the network?

This shouldn't be the case at all, right?

When the brain started to work again, many childish thoughts began to pour into Chi Yan's head.

The thoughts in her mind at the moment, without exception, all tended to be negative.

But in fact, she should know that there is a high chance that this will not be fake.

'It should be clear' is inconsistent with 'what's in my heart at the moment'. This is normal, because when a person is close to emotional collapse, the brain will protect itself and force the mind to move in the direction that the heart is willing to accept, becoming absolutely emotional and not More rational.

He even started to hypnotize himself and paralyze himself.

Here, Jing Liu and the gentry have finished translating.

"My hair? No, Mike, are you really not joking? It's not that I don't believe you, but this is so ridiculous!"

Dodge and the other gentry had already stood up, spreading their hands with exaggerated expressions:

"The end is the end, right? You said that a meteorite is going to hit our blue star in November. I think it is more credible, but what you just told me is that it happens once a month. This kind of disaster is like a game. , this is too outrageous!”

"Isn't this a plot that only happens in movies and novels? If you don't believe it, I absolutely don't believe it."

Mike, the most calm and calm person, had already logged onto the Internet while explaining, went to the official website of his hometown, and downloaded the file that was available to everyone.

He heard Dodge's words, bit his lip, and sighed helplessly:

"I also hope it's wrong."

"However, as our husband said and promised, when his action was so big, when it was announced to the East Kingdom and the world, he would not have known that if this was a lie, it would be What's the price?"

If this doomsday announcement is a lie, what price will East Asia pay?

——Dong will completely become the most ridiculous joke in the history of Blue Star. All Dong people outside the country in the future may be called:

"Are you from the East? Are you from that joke country where the leader was deceived by God and went round and round, using the strength of the whole country to perform a world-class joke?"

But in reality, ridicule is not a serious consequence.

What’s serious is what will happen behind this world’s ridicule——

The status of the Eastern world has declined rapidly, authority has completely disappeared, the pride and self-confidence of the Eastern people have been completely destroyed by their own people, all Eastern people feel ashamed of being Eastern, and national pride and cohesion have completely collapsed.

Any country that dares to make such a joke is personally destroying its own country's national destiny.

East will fall apart in an instant and be eaten away by the world.

But the gentleman did.

That means——

It is true, and it can only be true.

But...the end...

As an Easterner at this moment, he actually hoped that this was fake.

"Go back to the East! It must be the safest to go back to the East now!"

A girl screamed and opened her cell phone in a panic.

"That's right! Go back quickly! I want to go home to find my mother!"

Like a life-saving straw for a drowning person, everyone immediately began to take out their mobile phones.

As the country that was the first to know and prepare for the end of the world, and also being their own hometown, those who study abroad are extremely sure of one thing. The survival rate between going home and staying here is very different.

Only by going home can you gain a chance of survival!

Chi Yan's best friend also broke away her hand and took out her mobile phone.

Only then did Chi Yan realize that her palms were bleeding because her nails were too sharp.

But she couldn't feel the pain anymore, she just felt numb.

"It's stuck! It's stuck! The website can't be accessed at all!"

"Me too!"

"I'm in!" A girl shouted as if she had won a lottery, but then despair covered her expression:

"No! No! If there are free tickets for the flight home from Dashen, even if you accept a transfer, it will be ten days away at the earliest!

Ten days! Ten days! Does a flight ticket ten days later really still make sense? "

Chi Yan also looked at her mobile phone. Even though the screen was not on, she was stunned.

She has a ticket for seven days out.

But she had little joy.

There is actually not much difference between seven days and ten days.

If the apocalypse is true, will there really be airlines operating? Can I really set sail with my ticket that can only take off in seven days?

Chi Yan felt very confused.

She thinks that this ticket is likely to become a waste ticket, and it seems that she will not be able to go back.

"Uuuuuu——"

"What should I do? I can only pray that this is fake!"

"I don't want to die, let alone die in a foreign country."

There were originally more girls in this villa. Under such a heavy blow, the sound of crying immediately broke out in this villa.

Emotions are contagious.

So the panic was like a snowball rolling down the hillside, getting bigger and bigger, until it was so big that it would crush everyone here.

The boys couldn't accept this information at the moment. No matter how strong they were, most of them buried their heads between their knees.

Trembling all over.

Infected by this atmosphere, the gentry like Dodge gradually became a little panicked and at a loss.

These Dongguo friends wouldn't make such a joke with me, and they shouldn't act so realistically, right?

Could it...could it be true?

But……

There are too many ‘buts’, but in the face of the situation at hand, there seems to be no ‘buts’.

As a result, a desperate silence spread in the villa.

Everyone is like a drowning man whose legs are tied up by water plants, and all struggles are in vain.

No matter how hard I tried to open my mouth, I couldn't ask anyone for help. I could only swallow mouthfuls of turbid water.

A mass of darkness that was so thick that it couldn't be thicker wrapped around everyone.

Want to die, want to die, want to die.

In this seemingly boundless despair, the light of hope is about to go out——

No.

It cannot be extinguished.

Did you hear that?

That sound coming from the TV?

The voice of an old man, perhaps already old, using all his strength!

It broke through everything and came to the gentry——

"My dear! Beloved! Compatriots of the East!"

"do not be afraid!"

"do not be afraid!"
