Moreover, this is just the beginning, the real deal comes next.

"I just said, the beast tide has already erupted."

He sighed.

"How can this be…"

Hua Jun collapsed onto the sofa.

In the past few years, Anshan City had experienced several beast tides.

Each time, it was a tough defense, each time, the casualties were heavy.

But now, why is the beast tide here again?

Suddenly, a person appeared in his mind.

"Everyone, don't panic."

He immediately perked up and said, "No one wants to see a beast tide breakout, but our Anshan City is no longer the same as before. With the president here, we will surely get through this safely, perhaps even more easily than the previous times."

Yes, President Li is an A-level Awakened!

In the past, a few C-level Awakened could hold the line.

With an A-level Awakened in the city, how could we not hold it?

However, Xie Ming and the others in front of him did not seem too excited; instead, their brows furrowed even deeper.

"What's going on here?"

Hua Jun was baffled, "Don't you have confidence in President Li? He's an A-level Awakened. Last time, when so many B-level Awakened came to Jiulong City, you were there and witnessed it firsthand, didn't you?"

"Chairman Hua, it's not what you think."

Third Brother smiled bitterly, "How could we not know President Li's strength? To be frank, even in a lifetime, we can't achieve his accomplishments. But his strength aside, this beast tide is not the same as the previous ones."

Hua Jun sensed something was amiss and instinctively asked, "How is it different?"

Third Brother turned to look at Xie Ming.

This news was told to them by Xie Ming.

"Except for the beast tide ten years ago, the later ones were small skirmishes. In Yan Country, there were not many medium-sized cities breached, and many small cities, like our Anshan City, which is surrounded by mountains and defensible, held out valiantly. But this time,"

Sadness showed in Xie Ming's eyes, "there's a high probability it's like ten years ago, a national extinction battle initiated by the Fierce Beasts, aimed at wiping out our Yan Country."

"What?"

Hua Jun's eyes were about to pop out, staring intently at the other person.

"You, where did you get this news from?"

A national extinction battle?

A battle concerning the entire Yan Country?

This is too serious!

More importantly, he didn't notice any signs at all?

"It's from a friend of mine in Jincheng."

Xie Ming told the truth, "He was a friend ten years ago, and after the world changed, we both awakened superpowers. His talent was higher than mine, and soon he became a B-level Awakened and went to Jincheng. We gradually lost touch, rarely contacted each other. After I was expelled from Anshan City, I sought his help, but it was like throwing a stone into the sea, no response. From then on, I gave up."

"Just now, he suddenly called me, told me about this. He said that many B-level Awakened in Jincheng are already moving their families. Knowing I'm in Anshan City, he advised me to leave quickly. I didn't have much time to ask before he hung up. When I tried to call back, I found I had been blocked."

He took out his phone, showing a call from ten minutes ago.

Hua Jun stared blankly at the phone.

From the recount, this matter is quite believable.

Those B-level Awakened are closer to the higher-ups and naturally more likely to get some inside information.

Calling Xie Ming and then blocking him probably means that it's uncertain whether the latter can survive this crisis, and there's no need to keep in touch.

Being able to call and warn before blocking can be considered quite kind.

"Chairman Hua, do you understand what I meant now?"

Xie Ming said, "My friend is trustworthy. Even B-level Awakened are taking action, indicating this beast tide is extraordinary. Medium-sized cities might fall, let alone small cities like Anshan City."

"You mean?"

Hua Jun panicked, asked.

"Leave!"

Xie Ming answered without hesitation, "While not many people know, let's leave quickly, go to medium-sized or even large cities. Those three mega cities, we can't even think about, that's not for people like us."

"Yes, Chairman Hua, actually, it might be late for us already, but knowing early has its advantages at this critical moment."

"Can you contact President Li now? If so, I suggest you contact him and inform him of this."

They all said.

Actually, when they got this news, they could have left immediately without any hindrance.

But they chose to come here to report the news first.

Their purpose, of course, was to curry favor with Chen Fan, who might already know this news, or might not know yet.

If the former, they might waste some time but possibly leave together, enhancing safety with an A-level Awakened.

If the latter, this would be a crucial help.

Hence, they discussed briefly and came over.

Their families were already packing, ready to leave anytime.

They couldn't help it. This large-scale beast tide left them no will to resist.

"The president probably doesn't know yet, right?"

Hua Jun muttered to himself.

Judging by the president's character, if he knew in advance, he would have prepared him earlier.

Moreover, the president wasn't very popular in the Awakened Association, having caused quite a stir in Stone City before, with many people secretly slandering him.

"Still don't know?"

Xie Ming and the others exchanged glances, feeling a bit pleased.

So, they were indeed providing timely help today.

"Chairman Hua, since the president still doesn't know, you should quickly inform him. This cannot be delayed." Xie Ming hurriedly said.

"Yes, the beast tide might reach Anshan City tomorrow or the day after; it won't be as easy to leave then as it is now."

"Indeed, time is life!"

"Hmm."

Hua Jun nodded heavily, his right hand trembling as he took out his phone.

They were right. He was scared.

The scene from ten years ago would reappear. Who could not be scared?

"Beep, beep, beep…"

Listening to the ringtone, everyone held their breath.

"President, please answer, please."

Hua Jun prayed inwardly.

In the past, calling the president was always smooth.

But this time, he was panicking, his mind wandering.

Fortunately, no accident happened.

The call was answered after a few rings.

"Hello?"

A familiar voice sounded.

"President!"

Hua Jun breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately said, "Something terrible has happened!"

"It's the beast tide, right?"

Instantly, the office fell silent, only the sound of their breathing remained.

Hua Jun looked at the equally shocked Xie Ming and the others, opened his mouth wide, "President, you, you already knew?"

"Yes, I just found out. I'm on my way back. Gather everyone at the association, I have something important to announce."

"Okay, okay."

Hua Jun nodded.

Then the call ended.
