Chapter 77
Knowing You Still Dare to Act Recklessly
"The White Walkers have attacked the maternity hospital?"
Ye Rou hurriedly went to the room, opened the safe, and took out the Soul-Severing Spear.
I wanted to change into a leather jacket, but considering the urgency of the situation, I only changed my upper body jacket to avoid affecting the child, and I was still wearing loose pink cotton pajamas.
"Jing-jie, you and the baby stay at home."
"I'll go with you. Your belly is so big; you can't fall from a thousand meters in the air."
Ye Rou nodded. Although Fang Jing herself did not have martial arts skills, she was an extremely strong support.
Fang Jing held the child in her left arm and made a sweeping motion in the air with her right hand, creating a circular portal.
Beyond the door lay the skies above the Imperial Maternity and Infant Hospital. There were so many buildings that it was impossible to determine where the attack had occurred.
"It definitely won't be Building 74; there are hundreds of law enforcement officers guarding that area."
Everywhere was chaos, filled with screams, cries, and calls for help.
All that could be heard was a doctor shouting, "Those White Walkers are in Building 320, there are so many of them."
"Walk!"
Ye Rou put her arm around Fang Jing's waist, slipped into the spatial portal, and landed on the roof of Building 102. Then, she did a 100-meter jump and landed at the entrance of Building 320.
The doctors and nurses inside rushed out carrying the children, almost bumping into the two people.
"Instructor Ye, the third floor has the most Otherworldly beings, over a hundred of them."
Do you have children?
"There are seven or eight hundred children, and over a hundred have already been killed."
"damn it."
Ye Rou, now a mother, couldn't bear to see such things happen.
She grabbed Fang Jing and leaped to the third floor, where they saw White Walkers wreaking havoc in the nursery, and the cries of the children were heartbreaking.
A dozen law enforcement officers patrolling the park are confronting each other.
However, none of them had a cultivation level exceeding the second rank, so they could barely defend themselves against the attack of a hundred Otherworldly demons, and many of them were injured.
"Sister Jing, please help me."
"good!"
Ye Rou gripped the gun and gave it a jerk. A high-tech click sound rang out, and the two-meter-long Soul-Severing Gun popped out.
Shake, stab, sweep, thrust, true qi pulse...
In the blink of an eye, eighteen Others died under the Soul-Severing Spear.
To deal with these things, a fifth-rank martial artist is practically a bulldozer, completely overwhelming them in speed and strength.
The White Walkers, terrified by her strength, scattered and fled, preparing to plunder the other floors.
At this moment, Fang Jing's spatial abilities came into play. She held the child against the corner of the wall, staring at the direction the White Walkers were fleeing, and kept drawing circles with two fingers.
"Gentle, bayonet!"
Ye Rou thrust her spear into the void rift before her, and the spearhead emerged from seven or eight places simultaneously, killing eight alien demons with a single thrust.
Even a White Walker who tried to escape through the window was intercepted and killed from the air.
The fact that Fang Jing can accurately assassinate without accidentally hurting the child is what makes her so amazing as an accomplice.
Ye Rou dragged back the spear, and Fang Jing drew ten more circles.
A White Walker, recognizing the threat of her abilities, bared its fangs and charged down from the ceiling, causing the daughter in its arms to cry out in terror.
Fang Jing remained calm and drew a circle in front of her, adjusting the circle to the first position of the rift passage.
"soft!"
Just as the White Walker lunged at his daughter, Ye Rou, standing a hundred meters away, thrust out a spear that pierced right through the White Walker's chest.
The two sisters understand each other's abilities very well, so they cooperate seamlessly.
In just a minute and a half, all 108 White Walkers on the third floor were killed, and not a single one escaped.
"Sister Jing, there are so many injured children. Please open the passageway in the outpatient building. I'll go to the hospital to find a nurse."
"good!"
Some children had their faces bitten, some had their arms and legs severed, and some had their stomachs scratched by sharp claws—it was a horrific sight.
Ye Rou, a first-time mother, held her two wailing babies in her arms, tears streaming down her face.
This was the first time Fang Jing had ever seen such a horrific scene.
She looked at the camera and yelled, "What are you law enforcement agencies doing? How could you let a low-level monster like a White Walker attack a child like that?"
"Rou, we need to go to the fourth and fifth floors to help out. Wait for the nurses to come and hold the baby."
"good!"
……
Enforcement Bureau, Governor's Office.
When Zhou Ruoxi heard the report of the attack on the maternity and children's hospital, she opened the monitoring room and saw Fang Jing cursing loudly.
She immediately flew into a rage, "Has the Commander-in-Chief of the Central Guard sent troops to provide support?"
"500 team members have been dispatched from nearby areas, and instructors from Jiangling University have also gone there. Ye Rou, an instructor from the Martial Arts Department, and Fang Jing, an instructor from the Space Department, are clearing out the Otherworldly Ghosts in Building 360, where the largest number are located."
With these two around, Zhou Ruoxi wasn't worried.
But such a huge blunder, resulting in the deaths and injuries of so many children, was not entirely an accident.
Zhou Ruoxi had suggested eliminating the White Walkers long ago, but her family disagreed, without explaining the specific reasons, saying that it should be left to Poison Sting to handle.
"Call my fifth brother over here, quick!"
"Yes."
The Chief of the Central Guard of the Law Enforcement Bureau is Zhou Ruoxi's half-brother, Zhou Zhengyao, the eldest son of Zhou's third wife.
He was an A-level metal-type ability user who could fly on a sword, and he quickly traveled from the Central Guard Camp to the headquarters of the Law Enforcement Bureau.
"Oh dear, Seventh Sister, things are a complete mess here. Why did you call me here?"
"Why would I bother you?"
Zhou Zhengyao threw the sword onto the sofa with a miserable expression.
"How was I supposed to know these White Walkers would be so audacious as to attack the Imperial Maternity Home?"
"Fifth Brother, we must act now, otherwise we won't be able to report to the Queen. She keeps emphasizing that children are the future of humanity."
Zhou Zhengyao quickly waved his hand, "You have to ask Dad about this, don't bother me."
"Don't you understand your father's intentions?"
"So what if I know? Do you think I'd dare argue with him or anything?"
"You don't dare, but I do."
After Zhou Ruoxi finished speaking, she looked at her secretary.
"The governor has issued an order to the 60 teams involved in the extermination operation: all of them must find the Ghost Queen's hiding place before they can retreat. Once the Ghost Queen is found, the enforcement team will send experts to eliminate her."
"The first class to find the Ghost Queen will receive a reward of 300 million."
"Governor..."
The governor's secretary was sent by Zhou Ruoxi's father to supervise her, so of course he knew what this order meant.
"Seventh Sister, don't mess around." Zhou Zhengyao was also getting anxious.
"I am the governor, and I will relay the orders."
Zhou Ruoxi was prepared to act first and report later.
Her position as governor was appointed by the Queen, and although her father was the city lord, he couldn't do anything to her.
Zhou Zhengyao was almost in tears, "Since you've already made up your mind, why did you drag me into this mess to take the blame?"
"Fifth Brother, have your men prepare to exterminate the ghost. The one who got into trouble is your Central Guard, so the Ghost Queen must be dealt with by you."
Zhou Zhengyao dismissed his secretary from the office and, lowering his voice, yelled at Zhou Ruoxi, "Do you know why Dad sent Poison Sting?"
"I can roughly guess that they're using them to hold 2000 million people in Jiangling City hostage."
The five powerful families of Jiangling City wouldn't dare to do such a thing openly, but they could control the White Walkers.
The wives and children of high-ranking warriors and superhumans fighting on the northern front are all here.
Even if the empire dares to take a hard line, the soldiers on the front lines will not agree.
"Knowing that, you still dare to act recklessly?"
