Chapter 251: Chapter 133 I Play with Fire at the Volcano Crater_2
Because Lin Beichen felt that a breakthrough was imminent!
The heart had been tempered by the dense Fire Element to become even stronger. Not only that, but the limbs and blood seemed to receive a powerful enhancement as well!
Blood surged, flowing vigorously to the limbs, all thanks to the powerful heart acting as a pump.
This made Lin Beichen take a deep breath, feeling the intense, scorching wind hitting his face.
Neither avoiding nor retreating, he directly inhaled it into his body, feeling the dense Fire Element being introduced to his heart for tempering.
At this moment, helicopters occasionally flew overhead, but they were not here to fight the fire, much less to rescue Lin Beichen.
Because no one would believe that someone could be sitting and meditating at the crater of the volcano at this moment!
Spreading such news would be less believable than claiming that tomorrow was doomsday.
So the helicopters circling the crater were only monitoring the volcano’s condition. But they stayed far enough to avoid the volcanic ash that could easily damage their instruments.
This made it even less likely to discover Lin Beichen’s existence. Even though Lin Beichen was in a conspicuous location with bare surroundings, they could not detect him.
Of course, the helicopters circling above the crater were not just from the military; many journalists from various countries carried high-powered cameras, conducting live broadcasts over Jingli Mountain’s volcano.
It was clear that the journalists were doing whatever it took to get the first perspective.
This made their live-streaming platforms go viral, even crashing the servers despite temporary increases, unable to keep up with the viewers’ interest.
As it stood, billions of netizens were watching the live broadcast of the Jingli Mountain crater.
"Why hasn’t the volcano erupted yet? I was hoping for a big explosion, with lava covering the Divine Light Country and burning a large area to the ground!"
"Hasn’t the show started yet? We’ve watched two episodes of a drama, and the volcano still hasn’t erupted. We’re waiting for a grand show."
"Who knows, maybe Godzilla will come out when the volcano erupts!"
"Haha, the guy above is hilarious. Godzilla comes from the sea, not from a volcano!"
"You’re killing me! Godzilla hahaha~~~"
"Folks above, have you lost track of the live stream’s content? The Divine Light Country is streaming a volcanic crisis, and you’re discussing whether Godzilla will come out...?"
"How ridiculous!"
"No Godzilla, maybe there’ll be lava monsters causing havoc in the Divine Light Country!"
"What’s the deal with lava monsters!?"
"You guys are getting more and more out of line. The topic’s been completely derailed!"
......
The comments on major live streaming platforms were boiling over; the previous tension had vanished, replaced by some jokes.
Since the volcano had not erupted for a long time, tourists who had gone up the mountain were gradually and completely evacuated, and residents of surrounding cities were quickly relocated.
At least at present, as long as the volcano didn’t unleash monsters as discussed online, there wouldn’t be a large-scale loss of life.
Those evacuated netizens were more like the main force yelling online. If the volcano erupts and damages their houses, they’ll get reconstruction aid later. What’s there to fear? Besides, living near the volcano is frightening every day anyway.
Some netizens even praised the Divine Light Country for its swift response and evacuation plan, earning widespread approval!
At this moment, only the staff of the tourism department remained on Jingli Mountain. Even the Special Forces had evacuated by helicopter, not wanting to stay near the potentially erupting volcano.
The staff were also preparing to evacuate. Facing Jingli Mountain, all they saw was a snowy white expanse, devoid of any human presence, already fully evacuated.
The site was strewn with garbage, abandoned clothes, phones, and discarded shoes, looking like a disaster zone. The tourism department staff couldn’t manage all this; their priority was to quickly evacuate.
If it weren’t for the high-power cameras in the hands of those journalists live-streaming the whole process, they wouldn’t care about the tourism department’s image. They’d just run and disappear faster than the tourists, not bothering with final cleanup.
This was meant to show everyone in the Divine Light Country that the tourism department didn’t give up even at the last moment!
They remained steadfast in their duty!
...
...
Meanwhile, Kendia and his group, having evacuated to the base of the mountain, retreated somewhat as the faint sounds of explosion from the back of the mountain grew distant.
At the foothills of Jingli Mountain, there were no staff or tourists; the area was empty. It was the necessary route to leave Jingli Mountain. If they wanted to leave, this was the only path!
"Did any of you see Lin Beichen while coming down?" Kendia asked the few people behind him.
Helena awkwardly avoided Kendia’s gaze and replied, "No, I didn’t!"
She too was a bit flustered in facing the situation, not paying much attention to Lin Beichen’s figure, focusing instead on evacuating.
"No, didn’t see him!"
"No! I kept looking back during the entire evacuation, but didn’t spot Lin Beichen."
"Others who dispersed to evacuate haven’t reported back either. If they had seen Lin Beichen, they would’ve called us through the devices!"
The others responded.
Kendia looked up at the mountain top; besides the vast smoke and the sky reddened by the volcano, no figure was in sight.
"Could this guy really have died on the volcano?"
"That would be perfect, no need to hunt him down. He got himself killed, dead is dead!"
Kendia muttered to himself after pondering, and given the current situation, they couldn’t go up the mountain to verify.
Based on the mountaintop’s condition, survival was impossible!
"Lin Beichen is no ordinary person. This place, being at the foot of Jingli Mountain, is far from the crater, with a lower temperature. We will lie in ambush here. If he isn’t dead, he must pass through here to descend, and we’ll deliver a fatal blow!"
"We’ll have an explanation when we return!"
"What do you think?"
Kendia reasoned, then looked at the group to see their response.
"That makes sense!"
"Indeed, it’s the only option. We can’t go up the mountain, and if the volcano erupts, we can quickly descend and take a helicopter."
The group agreed with Kendia’s decision and dispersed to hide in various spots.
In their opinion, Lin Beichen’s extraordinary physique might mean he was still alive and might really come down the mountain.
"Ding!"
"Ding!"
"Ding!"
At that moment, Kendia’s communication device received a message for the first time!
"Something’s happening!"
"Quick, look at the live broadcast! There’s a figure!"
The voice in the communication device was urgent, as if the news they had been waiting for had finally come through. The speaker was almost incoherent.
"At this critical moment, who has time to watch the live broadcast! If you have nothing to do, come here; I’ll give you a task to explore the mountain!"
Kendia snapped back, thinking they were on the brink of eruption, risking their lives to complete the mission of assassinating Lin Beichen!
Yet someone was shouting at him to watch the live broadcast!
It was better to go up the mountain to see if Lin Beichen was dead; if so, they could return home, bathe, sleep, and claim the reward money!
The person on the other end shivered at the thought of going up the mountain, equivalent to a death sentence! Hurriedly, he explained, "The live broadcast, there’s a figure! It looks like Lin Beichen!"
"What!?"
Kendia exclaimed in disbelief, quickly calling his teammates to assemble.
He also opened his phone and clicked on the Divine Light Country’s official live broadcast platform.
All he saw was a flaming red crater, glaring like the sun, with magma boiling and gushing, thick smoke rising into the sky, and the surrounding soil baked hot red.
