Richest Man: Getting 7 Billion Red Pockets To Start With

567 Doomsday; Countdown! (2)

At this moment, the man sitting in the main seat said, “Have you asked Professor Lin?”

“Professor Lin’s phone is unreachable.”

The man on the main seat seemed to have thought of something and said, “Then don’t disturb Professor Lin now. He’s very tired.”

“Have we not announced our representative yet?”

“Not at the moment.”

“What are the characteristics of the people chosen from other countries?”

“They all heard the voice in their minds. At the same time, a golden 72-hour countdown that only they can see appeared on their arms.”

It had to be said that Hua Nation’s ability was not bad.

Not long after all this happened, they had already investigated all this information.

“If that’s the case, we can only wait for the chosen ones to take the initiative to report.”

“Get all the major online platforms to increase the news. Reward the individuals and families of those who have taken the initiative to report that they’ve been selected. Make relevant promises. At the same time, get the local authorities to step up their publicity and search.

“In addition, chaos begets chaos in troubled times,” the man said after a pause. “Tell all the places to pay attention to maintaining order.”

“Yes, Sir!”

…

Just as the man had expected, there was chaos in troubled times.

Some people could not suppress the fear in their hearts and committed crimes.

Fortunately, Hua Nation stopped everything in time.

Thus, order was quickly restored.

However, it was not so easy for other countries.

Snatching, smashing, burning, and killing were rampant.

Thick smoke billowed, and wails could be heard.

There were still three days before the chosen ones entered the Otherworld, but those countries were already showing signs of doomsday!

…

At this moment, Qing City, Fourth Streeth.

Lin Xiaoyao slowly walked out and said in a daze, “Brother, I just heard… Doomsday…”

However, before she could finish her sentence, there was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground and the honks of many cars.

These sounds scared Lin Xiaoyao so much that she could not help but shrink back.

Lin Fan hurriedly covered her ears and smiled. “Don’t worry, the apocalypse won’t come.”

Although it was just a very plain sentence, after Lin Xiaoyao heard it, she immediately felt that it was the truth.

Doomsday… It would definitely not descend!

Lin Xiaoyao nodded vigorously and said, “Yes!”

At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded from outside.

It was Lin Tao and Dai Weixue.

While they were working in the shop, they suddenly heard that emotionless voice.

In the beginning, they did not pay much attention to it.

However… the noise outside was incessant now.

Then, a huge Void Gate appeared in the air.

Only then did they know that it was true!

Thus, Lin Tao and Dai Weixue did not even close the shop door and returned home as quickly as possible.

If the apocalypse was really coming, they would have to stay with their children!

“Lil Fan…”

“Dad, Mom, you heard it too, right?” Lin Fan smiled. “Don’t worry, the apocalypse won’t come.”

“Really?” Dai Weixue asked hesitantly.

“Of course, it’s true, Mom. Have you forgotten… I’m a big professor?” Lin Fan smiled.

“That’s true. My son is a great professor!” Dai Weixue said.

Lin Tao did not say anything. He just looked at Lin Fan silently.

For the next two days, no matter how noisy the streets were or what people talked about…

Lin Tao, Dai Weixue, Lin Fan, and Lin Xiaoyao’s family acted as if they had not heard anything. They were no different from usual.

They continued to eat, watch TV, and chat every day. It was very warm.

On the internet, more and more representatives from different countries were announced, causing countless discussions.

Some people even created a Hero Ranking.

They called these chosen people heroes who were about to save the world. They created a comprehensive list based on their strength, influence, popularity, and so on.

There were no Chinese people on this list!

That was because Hua Nation still had not found anyone who had been chosen.

…

On Weibo.

Love: [What’s going on? Where are the chosen ones from our country?]

Feng Huo Huo: [Chosen ones, come out quickly! Don’t be afraid. We’ll definitely train you into the most outstanding people in the shortest time possible.]

123: [Why aren’t you coming out?]

Two-Three: [Don’t tell me there are no chosen people in our country?]

Who Am I: [We’re done for. If this continues, we’re done for!]

…

Jingbei conference room.

A group of men in white shirts gathered together.

The man sitting at the top asked, “You still haven’t found any chosen ones?”

“The number of people who said they were chosen online was 51,229. The number of people who claimed to be chosen in reality was 39,881. However, after screening and checking, we found that none of them were chosen.”

“How’s the investigation going on in the mountain villages without internet and some places that are rarely visited?”

After all, the internet was filled with discussions about the apocalypse and heroes.

It could be said that anyone who had some contact with the internet or had a smartphone would know that Hua Nation was looking for the chosen ones.

However, none of the chosen ones had stepped up.

Hence, they suspected that they were in a place without access to the internet.

Someone answered, “Nearly 10,000 soldiers have been set up for the investigation. In the past two days, they’ve conducted emergency searches in many mountain villages without internet access and remote forests.

“However, so far, we haven’t found anything.”

“What about the people who have passed away recently?” The man above pondered.

Obviously, he was worried that the chosen ones had gotten into some sort of accident.

This was the worst outcome.

However, it was also a possibility.

“We’ve investigated the people who were critically ill and died in the past two days. For the time being, we haven’t found anything special.”

When the man above heard this, he could not help but frown. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ nov????l(f)ire

No!

No!

Still nothing!

According to the current pattern… The bigger the country, the stronger the power, and the more people would be selected.

Some large countries even had more than ten people!

Even the weakest country would have at least one person chosen.

However, what was the situation in Hua Nation?

Why hadn’t any chosen ones appeared?

The man in the white shirt slowly raised his head and looked at the Void Gate.

1:00:59!

There was only one hour left before the chosen ones had to enter the Otherworld!

…

The scorching sun seemed to have ignited the entire sky. It was restless and scorching!

Qing City, Fourth Street.

The father and son were in the living room.

Lin Tao lit a cigarette and said in a low voice, “You’re going to leave soon.”

Lin Fan had not told his parents and sister that he was the only chosen one in Hua Nation.

However, since father and son were of one mind, Lin Tao could still guess the result.

Lin Fan looked at the timer on his wrist and said, “There’s still an hour left.”

Lin Tao took a deep puff of his cigarette and said, “Be careful.”

“Alright,” Lin Fan said.

At this moment, footsteps sounded from outside.

Qin Yuxuan, Xia Bing, Xia Xue, Hu Tian, Su Ningjing, Han Tian, Ling Rou, Qiu Ziqian, Huang Ling, Chen Xin, Xu Jingrou, and a large group of women appeared at the door.

“They’re looking for you, aren’t they?” Lin Tao asked.

Lin Fan nodded. “Yes.”

“Go and say goodbye,” Lin Tao took another puff of his cigarette and said.

“Alright,” Lin Fan replied and walked out slowly.

Just as Lin Fan walked out of the door, Lin Xiaoyao and Dai Weixue walked out of the room.

Dai Weixue threw herself into Lin Tao’s arms, tears rolling down her cheeks.

Lin Xiaoyao let out a hoarse voice from her throat. “Brother…”

Outside the door…

Lin Fan’s eyes swept across the women.

None of them spoke, as if time had stopped.

After some time, Qin Yuxuan took a few steps forward and hugged Lin Fan.

After a while, she reluctantly let go.

Then, Xia Bing and Xia Xue went forward and hugged Lin Fan.

Then, it was Han Tian, Hu Tian, and Su Ningjing…

After they hugged each other, the countdown at the Void Gate became 00:00:03!

Three seconds left!

Therefore, everyone shouted, “Lin Fan, we’ll wait for you!”

Lin Fan wanted to say something…

Swoosh!

Time returned to zero!

In the next moment, Lin Fan vanished from where he stood.
