Chapter 328 - Protection Shield (1/2)

The world had changed. The sky was covered in thick clouds, and water vapor was everywhere. The surrounding temperature was above 40 °C.

The surface of the sea was filled with cooked fish and prawns. The entire sea had turned into a pot of salted fish soup, and the air was filled with a salty smell.

Wei Huo checked the map and realized that he was in the sea between the Western Continent and the Southern Continent. This was the center of the Earth Core’s energy explosion. Perhaps the Western Continent and the Southern Continent were the most affected areas. The Northern Continent and the Eastern Continent were in better condition because they were far away.

Wei Huo’s character had already told Ma Tengyun and the others what had happened in the underwater world. At the same time, the situation over there was also reported.

Wei Huo said, “The situation in the Western Continent is very bad. The continent is completely submerged. The temperature exceeded 100 degrees all of a sudden, and many people died as a result.”

Meanwhile, rain was pouring. The steam formed a thick layer of clouds in the sky that turned into raindrops. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the sky from time to time as a few tornadoes appeared on the surface of the sea.

Xiao Liang frowned. “Do we… only have 55 years?”

In 55 years, the entire race would migrate and leave this planet.

Coincidentally, the game system suddenly released a global announcement.

A global quest was issued to all players: Escape.

Time: 55 years.

Objective: Escape from this planet and survive.

It seemed like besides the humans, even the players would be leaving. This was something the Atlanteans had planned for thousands of years. They had planned to use the planet’s core to kill the gluttonous snake.

Although they had temporarily failed, the end of the world would come in 55 years. This seemed like an unsolvable problem.

Wei Huo and the others started rushing toward the Southern Continent. Along the way, they passed an island. This island was where Wei Huo had intercepted all the fear and despair during the Battle Royale. There was also a small group of indigenous people in the Southern Continent.

Wei Huo and the others saw an energy shield from afar. That shield blocked everything, including the rain. It seemed like they had used this thing to block many calamitous consequences before.

The golden armor, which had sharp eyes, said, “That’s a huge energy shield. As long as the energy is not exhausted, the shield will not break.”

Wei Huo and the others landed outside the shield. Many cracks had appeared on the shield, but it was still strong. Everyone was curious. Where had this shield come from? Why was it so advanced?

Wei Huo’s golden eyes saw through everything. Thus, he sighed. “There are only a few children left. The oldest is only 16 years old.”

Everyone was stunned. They were all confused. “What about the adults? With a protective shield of this level, their adults should be fine, right?”

Wei Huo shook his head. “You will understand soon.”

After saying that, Wei Huo touched the protective shield. Then, the shield shattered like a bubble and disappeared. They walked in and a group of half-grown children suddenly rushed out with guns.

They shouted as they charged, “Die!”

Only Wei Huo and Lu Qiqi understood their language. The others did not understand because they did not have translation devices. They only knew that the group kept shouting and shooting at them.
