Spell Return: The Wheel of Time

Chapter 386 The Real Storm

When the gunshots rang out, the audience in the venue were already bent over and half-crouching on the ground looking for the nearest shelter. Although there were shouts of panic, everyone actually reacted very quickly.

Then, the audience who were still looking at the figure in the air that had just shocked them, saw again a scene that overturned all their cognition: after the figure was aimed and shot by countless security personnel on the scene, a large number of bullets appeared hovering around him.

The shocking of this scene was no less than the previous scene where the person who started cursing was pulled into the sky and then mysteriously killed. This was totally beyond the ability to be explained by any stunt or other technology currently mastered by humans.

For a moment, the scene was filled with chaotic shouts of people calling out the name of God, shouting out the devil, and screaming in terror. The security personnel who were protecting the presidential candidate were almost all stunned. After confirming again and again, they were convinced that they were not on the set of a superpower movie.

Everything before their eyes was not an illusion or special effect, but someone really made the bullets they shot suspend in the air!
"God is dead! There is only one god in this heaven, and that is our Lord!"

Kitagawa Hideo in the air shouted enthusiastically, and the live broadcast was cut off when he was halfway through shouting this sentence. Yes, the speech of a presidential candidate, especially this candidate who is particularly good at inspiring people, should naturally be broadcast live to voters in other parts of the country who support him but cannot come to watch it in person due to distance and other reasons.

However, they did not expect that such an incredible scene would be staged under the gaze of countless people in the White Eagle Country. In fact, the live broadcast should have been stopped long ago, but at the beginning they were not sure whose trick it was. As a result, when the security personnel started shooting, they were panicked and the live broadcast signal was delayed for a few seconds.

"It's over, there's going to be a big storm..."

This was a common thought among countless people. Even if they took the shots in time, the photographers and some spectators on the scene would definitely have images of the scene leaking onto the Internet. If it were in the past, it would have been very easy for the White Eagle authorities to block any news.

You have to know that the largest online social platform that covers almost half of the world is already under their control. What many people think is the objective "truth" is actually just a bone thrown by big shots. You can only see it and taste it, but mistakenly think that this is the "harvest" you have found and you will not be deceived.

In terms of public opinion, White Eagle was once a hegemon, once...

Because of the continuous development of the Internet era, it is destined that the new will replace the old. It is very simple. Those who have become giants and almost monopolized the top of an industry will eventually evolve into something disgusting because of their own complexity.

The new creatures that crawl out of the mud and want to challenge them will try hard to show and disguise their beauty and harmlessness in order to obtain the huge nutrients that have become accustomed to the former. Those new creatures witness that the behemoths have shortcomings that are disgusting but not fatal because they are irreplaceable, and then they will avoid these things in themselves.

In short, with a reference, latecomers may die and their corpses will be scattered all over the ground, but there will always be one that can stand out and become a being that can stand shoulder to shoulder with the former behemoths by relying on the advantages of the new generation.

Now, the White Eagle's position as the hegemon of public opinion has been challenged because there is an online social platform that is not under their control and has become a tool widely used not only in the White Eagle country but also internationally, not to mention that there are places deep in the network that are difficult to control by conventional means.

Even if White Eagle was furious, he probably wouldn't be able to stop today's events from spreading on the Internet. Just thinking about that situation made everyone present shudder.

"Do you remember that incident? It was about Daya, which seemed to be Neon. It was said that there were people with super powers..."

A staff member broke the silence with a trembling voice, and someone nearby showed a look of realization, but most people were bewildered. This was not surprising. Neon did disclose the existence of the curse, but the scope of its dissemination did not actually reach the whole world.

Not to mention that many places are truly closed off places, and although the information flow is fast in White Eagle, they control the information. What? Freedom? It's just something to fool the idiots below. Those who really believe in it are as ridiculous as this concept. And you have the freedom to know the "truth", so I also have the freedom not to let you know (laughs).

Plus, White Eagle itself is a magical place. Even in this era when humans have landed on the moon many times, there are still many people who believe that the earth is flat. White Eagle has captured alien remains and spacecrafts, and has a place dedicated to studying them. White Eagle’s senior executives are actually lizard people in disguise, and so on.

Of course, the last one might be some of the very few 'lucky ones' who witnessed some kind of curse. In short, in such a country, superpowers, a concept that has appeared countless times on the big screen, are really not a rare thing.

In addition, this incident also involved the sinking of a White Eagle warship, as well as more complicated issues. Therefore, matters concerning Neon were subject to a considerable degree of control in White Eagle. After all, it turned out that the East Country was the most widely known about matters concerning Neon, and this was the reason why they were confused at the moment.

"Things like this will naturally be handled by someone important. Just inform the higher-ups."

The person in charge here finally concluded that it was naturally okay for other people to do so, but as for the chaos at the scene and the safety of the well-known presidential candidate...that was not something they could control.

on site.

After countless bullets were blocked by Kitagawa Hideo's technique, the security guards' fighting spirit was basically shattered, but the former did not seem to let them go. The bullets fell from the air, but their bodies all rose into the air. "Oh, God, no!"

Seeing this familiar scene happening to themselves, they shouted in despair, but it was completely useless. Dozens of figures floated into the air, and then under Kitagawa Hideo's twisted smile, as his palms deliberately closed slowly, the scarlet liquid in those weak flesh and blood bodies was easily squeezed out in an instant.

The ubiquitous air currents were controlled by Kitagawa Hideo and became a deadly rope that reaped lives. The blood rain that fell again frightened all the people in the venue who were already running for their lives, and they wanted to escape from this hell at all costs.

Hideo Kitagawa and others did not stop them. Those who escaped were the best witnesses. Their main target was still the candidate who was already trembling on the ground.

……

exploded.

It was not an explosion in the physical sense, but a bomb of public opinion that suddenly exploded on the Internet. No, perhaps it can be compared to a nuclear bomb.

The reason is very simple, as the most advanced country on the planet today, White Eagle has experienced several major changes that will definitely be recorded in history books on this day which was ordinary in the past but will be no less important than September 11th from now on!

First, there is Evans, a famous candidate who once served as president and is now a well-known presidential candidate. He suffered an incomprehensible terrorist attack during his speech. All the security personnel on the scene were killed, and he himself also met with an unexpected death. Various media platforms on the Internet have circulated some seemingly authentic on-site videos and part of the live broadcast footage at that time.

What's more serious is that Evans seemed to be forced to say some blasphemous words to the camera. Of course, everyone watching knew that he was forced, but they were still infuriated by the words spoken by the crazy man who stole the camera in the second half.

The content of that man's words was also very simple. It was nothing more than denying the existence and authenticity of the so-called God, and promoting that the only existence that could be called God was the master he served.

This view that denies the existence of gods and ghosts has basically no destructive power on those who still believe in it today. They have already developed a set of explanations and cognitions about it.

What really broke the defense of countless White Eagle believers was that the man was the individual who showed supernatural power in the video. You said that the God you believe in has all kinds of incredible powers, so where is He? Instead, it was a blasphemer who showed a power that no human could possess under the attention of the public.

But they just don't have this kind of power. There is nothing worse than this. The authority of God is collapsing and shaking. When people can't see any miracles or supernatural powers, the God you preach will be believed by others because there are no miracles or manifestations of God.

But as long as someone truly demonstrates incredible power and openly declares that all gods are false, then except for those fanatics whose brains are broken and whose thinking is distorted, other believers will probably have more or less doubts.

After all, the strange scene of those people at the scene calling out the name of God in fear but being ruthlessly killed by the figure who was laughing wildly and shouting "God is dead" was imprinted in their minds.

It’s not that no one has doubted that this is a video produced with special effects, but White Eagle’s reaction almost completely shattered such speculation, because White Eagle’s top leaders almost immediately announced that the country was entering a state of emergency war.

It's not that they don't want to hide this kind of thing, but they really can't hide it anymore, because what happened to Evans was just one of the examples. On the same day, the place where the country's top leader resides and works, which in a sense can also be regarded as a symbol of the center of power, also suffered a terrorist attack.

This is not the end yet! Another important place of power in the White Eagles, the Five Square Building, was also subjected to a terrible massacre by an unknown enemy using incomprehensible means.

This is an unprecedented terrorist attack! Compared with this, the famous terrorist attack suffered by White Eagle in history seems insignificant in front of it. To put it cruelly, of course it is normal for White Eagle. How can the people who died in those buildings be compared with the "mainstays" of White Eagle who died in these three incidents?
Therefore, the White Eagle entered an emergency wartime state not because they were too sensitive. If they had not been sure that this was not done by the East Country and the latter had not issued a statement to distance itself from it, the clarion call of war would have suddenly sounded today.

Because White Eagle actually knew who killed so many high-ranking officials and caused such great damage, and what methods they used. That was the so-called "spell" that they had been extremely eager for since they learned some of it.

At the same time, the remaining senior executives of Neon were almost scared to death. The sorcerers ran to White Eagle and did such earth-shaking things, and those people all had East Asian faces. Then who had the most sorcerers here?

This time, the storm of curse finally swept across the entire world.
