Chapter 189: The Birth of a Secret Realm
The starlight poured down, like a poem from a dream, with red dots streaking across the sky, leaving behind dazzling traces.
Such a scene, dreamlike and illusory, looked very beautiful.
However, getting close to meteors is definitely not that beautiful.
Someone picked up their mobile phone, excitedly taking pictures and shooting videos.
“Family, look, this is a meteor shower that happens once in a thousand years. Those who see it will be showered with good luck. Like this live broadcast, and the streamer will risk their life to take you up close to the meteor shower.”
Even at this time, there were still streamers persisting with their live broadcasts.
Song Tiantian did not prohibit these streamers from taking pictures and shooting videos below the city wall.
This is because the enemies at the Pet Beast Center are not humans, but Fierce Beasts. As long as they don’t film the traps or the defensive deployments on the city wall, it’s acceptable.
There are all sorts of people, and all sorts of first-person perspectives.
Online, you can even experience the first-person perspective of a Beast Tide up close.
Anyway, as long as you voluntarily go to the city wall to fight, you can wear a mobile phone on your head to live broadcast.
Mobile phones are fragile. The more famous streamers had already prepared custom-made helmets with cameras embedded inside, protecting both their heads and the cameras.
It was only when the alarm sounded that the excited expressions on these people’s faces changed.
Normally, the alarm wouldn’t sound; it only rings when a large number of Fierce Beasts launch an attack.
However, the Security Guards on the city wall were all very excited at this moment, because Fierce Beasts represented Points.
Now, Intermediate Beast Food can only be purchased with Points.
Supplies were extremely scarce.
With just two hundred percent profit, a person would be willing to abandon everything and take the risk.
Nowadays, the prices in Qingshan City had soared, and the high-speed rail lines and highways had been destroyed.
Especially for good things like Intermediate Beast Food, transporting it to Qingshan City could increase its value tenfold. Moreover, Qingshan City was so close to the Pet Beast Center, only an hour’s journey away.
So close, and such high profits.
In this Era, almost everyone wanted to start a business, everyone wanted to be a Boss, so there were many bold people.
This is why Song Tiantian set purchase limits, with ordinary vegetables and rice being limited per person per day.
Intermediate Beast Food was changed to be purchasable only with Points.
As for others who were still working, their original Salary remained unchanged, but everyone received an Identity card, and each month, everyone received five Points.
Using Points to replace Salary was definitely not feasible.
So, Song Tiantian set Points as an additional reward.
The Salary remained unchanged, and Song Tiantian wouldn’t lose out, because the Prices at the Pet Beast Center were also soaring.
The reason was also simple: resellers had purchased a large amount of Supplies from the Pet Beast Center, so the Supplies at the Pet Beast Center decreased, leading to the price increase.
Everyone uses the Network. The Pet Beast Center has a Signal Base Station. It’s not scary if the Network Cables outside are broken; as long as the base station is there, there’s a signal.
So, everyone could know the current situation in Qingshan City.
The Supplies at the Pet Beast Center had increased in price. Those who had made a fortune by reselling Supplies previously suddenly became low-key, no longer daring to flaunt how much they had earned.
This was because they had earned the hostility of others.
Although the current Prices at the Pet Beast Center were still much cheaper than in Qingshan City.
The prices had still increased severalfold.
Money was worthless, but Points were very valuable. Points could not be transferred; they could only be used to purchase Supplies for oneself.
However, the good things in the Weaponry could not be bought even with money.
They could only be bought with Points.
Moreover, Song Tiantian even opened a new service: for those who disliked Points, they could exchange Points for money, with one Point being exchangeable for nine thousand Flower Country Currency.
And this option was particularly eye-catching, with a particularly large title box, making it easy to click by mistake.
Fortunately, one still had to enter their Bank Card account number to receive the payment.
Otherwise, it would be very easy to exchange Points for money, and then one would truly regret it.
It is precisely because of this.
Everyone felt even more that Points were a good thing.
This was also a psychological suggestion set by Song Tiantian.
In fact, Song Tiantian never thought that Points were more important than money.
Points were just a number; besides being recognized by the Pet Beast Center, they were not recognized anywhere else.
But money was different. Although both were digital currency, it could be used not only in Flower Country but also in other countries.
But no one expected that a grand meteor shower was about to change all of this.
The Beast Tide was targeted at the Qingshan City area, not the entire country.
Other parts of the country were still very safe.
However, this meteor shower was not just in Flower Country; it was targeting the entire Blue Star.
Song Tiantian’s brows furrowed. Large-scale destructive weapons were only available in Qingshan City; they were not here.
If these meteors fell on the Pet Beast Center, the Pet Beast Center would be finished.
Dr. Bai gave Song Tiantian a charming smile and patted her shoulder: “Now, I’ll show you my skills, otherwise you’ll say I’m useless every day.”
Dr. Bai raised his hand, and Black Crow flew out from his arm.
Black Crow’s figure grew larger and larger, instantly becoming incredibly huge. With a flap of its wings, the incoming meteors were shattered by a giant Wind Blade and fell to the ground.
Fierce Beast Secret Realms instantly appeared near the Pet Beast Center.
The scene today was shocking; no one expected that Secret Realms would be born in such a way.
From a distance, people could still see that Qingshan City had mobilized large-scale destructive weapons to blast the incoming meteors, but there were simply too many meteors, and even with conventional weapons, their effectiveness was limited.
The rumbling sound could be heard even from over thirty miles away.
Leng Qing watched countless meteors fall in Qingshan City, the sparks of missiles colliding with meteors blooming in the sky, and huge fragments smashing into buildings, cars, and the ground.
In an instant, Qingshan City became a living Hell.
But at the adjacent Pet Beast Center, the giant Black Crow perfectly blocked all the meteors.
Leng Qing didn’t know her own state of mind; she didn’t know if she should be grateful that her family was all at the Pet Beast Center or lament that the end of the world was coming.
At this moment, the Network was gone.
Those streamers who thought they would become popular saw their live stream rooms go black and thought their accounts had been banned, believing they had violated some prohibited Rules.
The electricity hadn’t gone out yet because Qingshan City had its own generator, but soon, the generator was smashed.
Qingshan City plunged into darkness.
Screams and cries of grief filled the air.
Meanwhile, the adjacent Pet Beast Center remained intact.
Leng Qing was once again grateful that she had sent her entire family to the Pet Beast Center.
