【Hello, dear listeners! Welcome to "Youyang International Information Broadcasting", I am your host Kelly, here we will bring you the latest information from around the world. 】
[On April 21, a rare meteorite incident occurred in the foggy Greenwich area, causing relatively large-scale economic losses. 】
【It is reported that this meteorite fall occurred in the evening local time, when a fireball suddenly appeared in the sky, and then a huge impact sound echoed through the Greenwich area. The shock wave generated when the meteorite hit the ground caused damage to surrounding buildings, broken some windows, overturned nearby cars, and uprooted some trees...
Rescue workers rushed to the scene quickly Rescue efforts were carried out at the scene. According to statistics, three people were seriously injured and 21 were slightly injured. After the accident, the local government urgently activated the emergency plan and launched rescue work·········
The Wudu government stated that the rescue work is currently being carried out in an intensive and orderly manner, and at the same time, it will strengthen early warning and prevention of similar astronomical events in the future. This meteorite fall has aroused social attention on early warning and prevention of astronomical events, prompting relevant departments to strengthen research and preventive measures on similar events. 】
[On April 27, the [Ouroboros] railway in Fog City has been established. Different from the earlier intricate grid lines, [Ouroboros] is a new circular road system for Connect different areas of the foggy city and relieve urban traffic pressure. 】
[In the government report for the new year, the Wudu government plans to invest a lot of money in building two ring road systems, the North Ring Road and the South Ring Road, to further relieve urban traffic pressure... ·】

A slender index finger pressed on the off button of the radio, and accompanied by a pop, the female host spoke in the authentic Wudu accent. The playing sound disappeared instantly, and a blond young man wearing sunglasses and basking in the sun slowly sat up from the recliner with a comfortable expression on his face, and then stretched out comfortably.
The sun shines through the private swimming pool on the hotel balcony, sparkling, and the alluring blue water reflects a beautiful glare.
A few soft and comfortable lounge chairs are placed in a corner of the balcony, and exquisite parasols turn this corner into a cool shelter from the sun.
It is now a week after the end of Alice's game was announced, and also a week after Xia Xiu gave himself a vacation to play.
During this week, he basically just ate, drank and had fun. He had already performed two rounds of performances, and it was time to enjoy himself.
After getting the Holy Grail, he was not so anxious.
"Ouch——"
A not very harmonious sound interrupted Xia Xiu's laziness. He turned his head and looked at the place where the sound came from, which was a high foot. There is a broken orange on the table.
The orange is divided into several petals, each petal is filled with crystal clear, plump flesh, and the orange petals shine like miniature gems.
Among the oranges, there is a tiny figure lying on the oranges, feasting on it. This figure is very mini. It looks like the size of an ordinary keychain, or maybe even smaller than a keychain. This The figures look like the inhabitants of Lilliput in fairy tales.
Xia Xiu stepped down from the recliner and came to the villain's side silently. Then he grabbed the villain's clothes with the thumb and index finger of his right hand and lifted them up gently.
"I'm back again, Abraham -"
A bright smile spread across the villain's exquisite and perfect face, and the corners of her mouth were stained with bright orange juice, making her look a little naughty and cute, and she looked like Just like a small tabby cat.
The blond young man shook his head helplessly. He put the villain in his hand, then reached out and pulled out a tissue from the tissue box on the table, and carefully wiped off the pulp from the corner of the other person's mouth. .
"You are currently charging for a week and talking for two hours, and the call charges will become more and more expensive in the future. It is better now. A week of sunshine can pay for the cost of a long-distance call. You are better. , use this long-distance phone call for food.”
The little doll that is the size of a keychain and looks exactly like [Hope] is the gadget that Stag gave him before.
The function of this thing is to connect Ahabat who is performing [Information Authority Compression] far away on Jupiter. It can transmit Ahabat's consciousness through the authority of the stag at the third level, using the shortest path of transmission through the [Ether Ocean] , thereby achieving fast and reliable consciousness transmission.
To put it simply, this doll is a long-distance transmission tool made by the deer, used to make long-distance calls. However, this phone is made more realistically. There is a high probability that the deer is really pressing the button of the legendary villain. The template creates the doll.
Xia Xiu put the mini version of [Hope] on his shoulders, and then looked at [Hope] with its little feet dangling with an expression worthy of you.
"Otherwise, it would be so boring to be on Jupiter~"
"Storms and high-speed airflow are raging in the atmosphere, and there is also a very, very large and huge cyclone. Inside the cyclone, wait Carrying a lanky monster with long limbs and sharp claws, when the stag took me over, the monster roared and rushed towards us. Then he was bombarded by the [Stag Ring] for a week, and now it is in Jupiter. There was also the sound of bombings.”
[Hope] muttered to Xia Xiu beside him, and Xia Xiu raised his eyebrows unconsciously. The environment on Jupiter is indeed very harsh. Storms and high-speed airflows often rage in the atmosphere, and the most dangerous environment there is. The famous storm is the [Great Red Spot] storm.
According to the observations of Terra's extraordinary people, the Windtalkers live in the [Great Red Spot].
The stag threw bombs into the [Great Red Spot]...
Xia Xiu held a moment of silence for the Wind Whisperer. He was not the one who led the stag there. This thing is fate. guidance.
"You can eat whatever you want while the phone bill is still sufficient. After you finish eating, the phone bill will probably be gone, and you will have no choice but to go back to Jupiter and continue to lie down."
“Then let’s have ten pieces of mousse cake first!”
“With your current body shape, one piece is enough for you to eat for a long time, so why not pay ten pieces.”
“That seems right~ ”
··········
Two hours later.
In the hotel living room, a lifelike and exquisite doll the size of a keychain is dozing on the guest table. Next to her are several mousse cake packaging boxes, and in front of her is a chess board. .
Little [Hope] is holding a bishop that was eaten by Xia Xiu just now. Her body is smaller than the chess piece, so she is holding the chess piece like a pillar. She With his eyelids drooping, he leaned his head on the chess piece, yawning and looking at the chess game ahead where he was about to be killed.
She shouldn't have listened to Abraham's suggestion of eating cake and playing chess at the same time, without any gaming experience at all.
"Where are you going to land next, so I can help you move it."
The blond young man smiled and urged [Hope], whose eyebrows were wrinkled in front of him, at this time the other person's little His face has become bulging, looking like a bun.
"No more!" [Hope] said to Xia Xiu dissatisfied.
Looking at the angry Ahabat, Xia Xiu smiled and raised the chess piece in his hand and dropped it on the grid. As the chess piece fell, he announced that he had won again.
“36:0, a perfect victory.”
“Huh——” [Hope] snorted dissatisfiedly, and at this moment, strong sleepiness swept over him again .
"So sleepy..."
"It seems that the phone bill is not enough."
Xia Xiu looked at the sleepy [Hope] and said with a smile:
"I can only say goodbye. See you next time."
"Well...bye."
[Hope] nodded to Xia Xiu with her drooped little head, and then she finally couldn't restrain her sleepiness. Her half-knocked eyelids finally closed, and her body also fell forward.
Xia Xiu stretched out his right hand and gently took the poured [Hope], then carefully put her away beside him.
After the call ends, the original lifelike qualities of the sleeping doll will disappear, and the material of the doll will become the same as the dolls sold in toy stores. Only when the call is resumed, the doll will Get flesh and blood.
"The vacation time is over, and it's time to move forward."
Xia Xiu whispered a few words softly, and then he lowered his head and summoned his interpretation card.
Different from the previous two rounds of interpretation, the interpretation card he summoned this time was white at the beginning. In other words, he directly became the [Savior] this time.
When he summoned the white card, a blue curtain appeared in front of him, and then lines of font appeared on the curtain.
[You have entered the third performance: "The Impaler"]
[This round of performance has already started, but because there has been no white card in this round of performance, so The side that promotes the deduction is the red card side]
[In this round of deduction, all initial camp selections will be automatically upgraded to white cards if they choose the white side. 】
[All yellow card camps will be restricted in this round of interpretation. The red team’s yellow cards are: ten. ]
[White cards: 1~7 people (this round is performed by a hero team, so the yellow card will be automatically upgraded to a white card)]
[You are the only white card currently, you can Make teammate selections. 】
[The white card player in this round performs the victory condition: prevent the impaler from reviving (isn’t it easy [smiley face]). 】
“Very easy...”
Xia Xiu looked at the last line of words on the curtain and the smiling face, and couldn't help but laugh.
Different from the first two interpretations, the intensity of the three interpretations after the third interpretation is more outrageous than the last.
"The Impaler", one of the triggers of the economic recession in the foggy city in the previous life and the withdrawal from the Youyang Alliance.
The incident of the Wudu area's separation from the Youyang Alliance was a big blow to the Youyang Alliance, which was deeply involved in the [Proxy War], because the Youyang Alliance and the Edici Federation had already been involved in the [Proxy War] ] signed the [Olive Branch Pact], which is a political and military alliance established to strengthen cooperation among member states, jointly respond to potential security threats, and maintain the collective security of member states.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this organization is a political alliance organization to check the Daevite Empire in the north and the Oletin Empire in the Far East.
After Fog City left the Central Alliance, although it was still in the Convention Organization, its allocation to the sixteen countries of Oaxaca, which was in dire straits, was cut by more than half.
The reasons why Fog City left Youyang include sovereignty issues, immigration issues, economic issues, worries about the integration of Youyang and other secular issues, and are also related to [Piercing the Lord].
In this round of interpretation of "The Impaler", the Fog City area can be said to have been unlucky for eight lifetimes. Although the Frankland area next door was plagued by evil dragons, and the area next door, that is, the Berlin area, this It would be hard for them to be harassed by the mob and Lilite.
But compared with the crazy [Piercing Male], its two neighbors are much better.
At least their extraordinary structure and troops were well preserved, and the Impaler directly destroyed the entire urban area of Fog City, and Big Ben and the Great Mystery were basically attacked by the one who planned to attack [Miracle] The Grand Duke was demolished to pieces, and several of the monarchs of the [Clock Tower] died.
This will also lead to the decline of the Magic Association, dominated by the [Clock Tower], and the non-governmental organization of the Kingdom of Heaven [Temple Church] will begin to fill the vacuum. The number of civilian nails belonging to the Kingdom of Heaven will gradually increase, and other countries will also take the opportunity to fill the fog. vacuum zone.
Of course, this is also the reason why Fog City broke away from the Central Alliance. They did not want their extraordinary sovereignty to be occupied by other forces, so they announced the semi-closure of many [hub] areas used to accommodate extraordinary people. In other words, Implement a blockade policy on the extraordinary side of Fog City.
Unfortunately, they are not the same.
The whole Terra behind was in a mess, and the Kingdom of Heaven was extremely busy. Many angels were like animals, working overtime every day until they died.
It is even more impossible to live peacefully in the foggy city.
"Choose your own teammates~"
The white cards rolled flexibly in Xia Xiu's hands, and his golden eyes revealed a different kind of luster.
This performance is different from the previous two. In this performance, he knows the weaknesses of all the red and yellow card props.
The enemies in this performance are not humans, but ten vampire props.
In this interpretation, there are ten pieces of [Vampire Arms] scattered around. Anyone who possesses a [Vampire Arms] will gain the ability to be armed and directly transform into a vampire. These ten pieces of arms It contains the souls of ten true ancestors of vampires. These souls are similar to [Incarnations of Dominance], and each of these souls has a significant weakness.
For example, the [Vampire Mask] among the ten weapons can turn the wearer into a vampire, but the vampire transformed by the mask will not be able to live in the sun. In the dark, the holder of this item will It is an 'invincible' existence.
"I have to choose my teammates carefully. These teammates will all be my brothers who help each other and are brothers." Xia Xiu stopped turning the white card and showed a bright smile at the corner of his mouth.
Unlike the two teammates who were doomed in the past two times, this time he has the right to choose his teammates, and he has to choose the good brother who is "hard-working and uncomplaining".
Now, Xia Xiu plans to set off to find his first teammate.
If he remembered correctly, this teammate should have gone to prison during this period, and he was going to fish him out now.
