Live coverage
After Yman left the criminal leader in the hands of Instructor Goki, the instructor quickly called for help. "Fast! I need someone who knows how to use healing magic here!" He yelled. His yell became the reason to wake everyone to their stupor.
"I-I am!" Everyone looked at the source of the voice. It was from Maku. Goki beckoned her to approach. Along with two friends the three immediately approached where Goki was. When they approached, "Please, can you fix him?" Goki immediately pleaded.
"Yes, I can, Mr. Goki sir. But…"
"But?" Goki asked with a frown.
"Uh, she means her partner hasn't returned to her yet," Jami herself replied to Goki.
Upon hearing this, Goki remembered that their System Deities had not been returned to them yet. Even his. He just remembered a much bigger problem. They saw it when the leader stored their System Deities at his Cyber Storage.
Goki immediately turned around to find the leader's System Deity. But, he couldn't find its System Deity. They need to get the White Box of the Deity System to recover their assets.
At that moment, they heard Yman's voice. "Don't worry. Here is the System Deity." After saying this Yman tossed an object towards Goki.
Goki caught it and when he saw it, "Oh! Is this his?!" He asked.
"Yep!" Yman nodded. He took it when that enemy's resonance with his System Deity got canceled after his life points reached zero percent. The System Deity tried to get out of Goki's clasped, but it couldn't budge him.
In Yman's mind, 'That's regretful. If only they hadn't remembered, I would have made a lot of money if I sold them later on.'
Everyone was immediately thankful when their System Deities were returned to them. Their smiles could be seen on their faces as they reunited with their Deities.
Using her healing magic that has reached the medium tier, Maku healed the leader of the criminals. Her hands were shaking as she did so. The person's face was a bit frightening to look at. She wondered if this kind of face was to be put in a horror movie, they would definitely not need to spend more money to pay for a make-up artist.
The beads of sweat on Maku's face were noticeable. It was not easy for her to heal him because of the severity of the damage he sustained. Some parts of his skull appear to have been crushed. Those injuries would have already caused a sudden death if this person was a normal human.
When he saw Maku's troubled face, "Just heal him to the extent that we can converse with him," Goki said. He wanted to heal him not because he was concerned, but because he needed to talk to it.
"O-Okay," Maku replied.
Nonetheless, even if they cure it, this person will only end up in jail. So it was useless only.
After a few minutes of waiting, the leader of the criminals regained consciousness. However, he noticed that he could not move. He found out that his hands were tied. On a second look, he noticed that he only had one hand. Moreover, he was surrounded by opponents. He could do nothing to retaliate.
He even felt pain in many parts of his body, especially his face. Goki immediately asked their reason for causing a commotion in this place.
"You are just wasting time. You can't get any information from me!" The stubbornness of the leader.
Goki knitted his brows. He already expected this kind of answer from him. Since it seemed like the enemy didn't want to blurt out any information, he glanced behind him.
His eyes landed on Yman. The people around also looked at him. Yman could probably guess what he wanted to tell. Honestly, for Yman, Instructor Goki was just wasting time.
"Can you do something?" Goki asked.
'As I thought,' Yman said in his mind when Goki really asked what he was guessing.
"Forget it, Instructor Goki, sir. It's better to hand him to the military and let them handle the task of questioning."
"Oh, I see. You're right."
"Besides, there are more crucial issues than this. I can give you a brief description of what is currently happening."
"Really?"
"Yes," Yman nodded.
After he nodded he immediately narrated what he knew. Yman told them that it wasn't just this number of opponents. There were also attackers in other parts of the city.
"What?!"
"Really?"
"There are more?"
The three instructors exclaimed after hearing him. With a serious face, Yman nodded.
"Then they're not thieves?" Goki asked in surprise. He initially thought that these people were a group of thieves.
"Yes, they're not," Yman replied.
"Is that true?" Instructor Torr asked in assurance.
Without saying a word, Yman nodded slightly.
"I think he's telling the truth," Instructor Musk himself answered Torr's question.
"How can you say that?" Torr asked.
"I mean… these people… If their intent was really stealing, they should have taken my sword as well. However, they just took my Deity and ignored my sword." Musk showed his sword in hand.
In Goki's and Torr's thoughts, they think Musk had a point. It's impossible for an experienced or organized thief not to notice the true value of Musk's sword. His sword, although it looks ordinary, was actually worth a lot of money. They should've known the real worth of it if they were truly an organized thief. Even bandits would surely notice it.
"I see," Instructor Torr mumbled.
Yman continued saying, "I think they are vigilantes led by an influential person or a group of powerful people."
"How can you say that?" Torr once again asked.
Yman remained calm as he was answering their questions. He mentioned about the explosion earlier. He said it wasn't just a simple explosion.
"What?! It came from the four different areas of the city? Is that true?"
"Yes."
Everyone listened to him. Eventually, the expression on their faces changed after hearing what he said.
Yman followed by saying, "To answer your question about why I think they are vigilantes… it's because I saw some group with the same outfit as them hurrying towards the tallest skyscraper where the VIPs are right now." Everyone's eyes already turned big and the shape of their mouths turned circular.
But Yman wasn't finished yet. "Also, in some parts of the city, a battle between the militaries and the vigilantes is currently happening."
All the people around, the instructors, the students, and even the ordinary people started murmuring with each other as fright could be seen in the faces of some of them. There were some who still could not believe him, but after one person among the crowds shouted, "He-He's right! Look! A vlogger named NoToPedopie is doing live coverage!" Upon hearing him, everyone immediately checked their devices.
"No! He's right!"
"Jesus!"
"Oh god!"
"Oh lord, help us!"
They started exclaiming.
None of them even questioned Yman how he knew this much. If they were in the right state of mind, they would have questioned him already but since all of them were in the face of such alarming news, none of them showed interest in asking him about it. They even disregarded the unsightly scene around them where blood and dead bodies were lying around. Only a few of them were in a good state of mind at the moment. Most were dejected and anxious.
In the comment section of the live coverage, people were sending bible verses comments. There were also some who were sending comments like,
MrPeaceLoving: Pray for Human City Zone 7!
Marites: Hey, what is happening? Hey! 0
Ain't no Sh*t: Wut! The HCZ7 again?!
TheAceof10: Wait! Is that a cursed City? Why does that City always suffer a strike?!
Menomercy: Lmao!
Zone1mynumba1: That city sh*it is destined to be doomed!
"Damn those comments. Are they heartless?" Dianne muttered in a dejected tone upon reading the other comments.
In the live coverage, it was seen that the military forces were currently battling against the people in black outfits. The military troops took cover on the walls of the buildings around while the enemies were on the opposite street. They were exchanging fires using their magic-based guns.
While crossing his arms, Torr was anxiously tapping his fingers against his elbow, "Dammit! What shall we do now?" He furrowed as he gnashed his teeth.
Amidst the bees-like murmurs from the crowds, "Faster! We need someone who knows of a place to evacuate the civilians!" Goki's voice resounded.
Goki took the initiative to command the capable people around, especially the Magicians. Those who studied in the academy were automatically considered as Military Reservists. So these students could already be considered as reserve forces. The instructors are one of them too.
"Let's do the task!" Jami and the others volunteer to evacuate the civilians. "I know of a good place for evacuation!" She added.
"Really? Okay thanks!"
"Sure sure," after saying it, Jami faced the crowd. She noticed everyone was wearing anxious faces. With a smile on her face, she shouted, "Everyone please don't panic! Please form a line and follow us." The civilians immediately hoarded around Jami and the others.
