Divine Rune Awakening: Starting With Various Divine Runes and Dominating the World

Chapter 11: Prepare to Start the Live Broadcast; Stabilize the Nine Region Empire

There were six underground shelters in Longjiang City, each of which could accommodate more than 100,000 people.

With the help of many Divine Runemasters, the military rescued nearly 400,000 people and sent them to the shelters.

Boom!

In Longjiang City.

Hundreds of fully armed soldiers brought ten tanks, dozens of buses, and a few military jeeps. They had just rescued the survivors in this area.

In the sky, the most advanced fighter jets in the Nine Region Empire covered them.

The people in the buses were terrified as they looked outside.

Rats that were bigger than tigers ran amok on the streets, charging at the soldiers without any fear of death.

Even with the weapons, it was difficult to kill all of them.

The sounds of gunfire and the chittering rats rang continuously in the air.

"There are so many of them!"

Lin Chen and Su Youwei were also present, helping the soldiers to kill the rats.

Apart from the duo, there were more than a dozen people who had superpowers. Among these people, only one of them possessed defensive power.

With their help, tens of thousands of rats were killed in less than an hour.

No one cared about the carcasses of the rats. Clearly, they were unaware of the crystal cores that could be used to strengthen their divine runes.

After breaking out of the encirclement of the rats, Lin Chen and Su Youwei got into a jeep.

Lin Chen said with a smile, "Sister Youwei, your armor is amazing! What kind of divine rune do you have? Let's team up to hunt mutant beasts in the future! There's nothing we can't do if we work together!"

"Alright, just don't drag me down," Su Youwei said with a chuckle. She was very comfortable around Lin Chen and wanted to form a team with him.

"I won't be a burden to you. After all, I still have the Emperor Armor," Lin Chen said proudly. He had always been a fan of armor. He also liked how the Fire Dragon looked so he tattooed an armored Fire Dragon on his chest. Then, he got a tattoo of an emperor on his back. He had never thought that there would be a day when his tattoos would awaken and be of such great use.

After recovering from the excruciating pain of the awakening, Lin Chen had been excited beyond words when he discovered his power.

…

In the shelter in the western suburbs.

On the observatory platform high above the walls.

Zhang Hu and the 108 men looked at the army of ants outside the shelter and felt chills running up their spines.

Wu Rui frowned and said, "If this continues, the power consumption will be too high."

"Don't panic," Zhang Hu said calmly, "We have 300,000-400,000 tons of fuel, 50,000-60,000 large generators, windmills, and solar panels. As long as we can hold on for half a month, we'll be able to kill all these ants."

The shelter was equipped with the most advanced solar panels. Even if the sun was not blazing, the solar panels could still store electricity.

Zhao Feng said calmly, "Although they look disgusting, they're still ants no matter what. It'll be a massacre when we kill them!"

At this moment, Gu Changqing's voice sounded from the broadcast system.

"Everyone, gather at the gate. These ants will become nourishment for our rise to the top!"

"Let's go!" Zhang Hu called out to the others upon hearing Gu Changqing's voice.

…

In the living room.

"There… There's Internet?"

At this moment, Tuan Tuan, whose real name was Zhao Yuting, had just finished cleaning when she suddenly discovered that her phone was connected to the internet. She was extremely shocked.

At this moment, Gu Changqing, who was dressed in a black suit, came downstairs.

Zhao Yuting smiled and said, "Boss, there's Internet connection!"

"Just in time. Go to the observatory platform and prepare for a live broadcast. The other live-streaming platforms should be down, but Dragon Net should be up," Gu Changqing said tonelessly as he walked past Tuan Tuan. He wanted to show the world what an absolutely safe shelter looked like.

Gu Changqing was not worried about standing out and attracting trouble at all. Short of a nuclear bomb, he was almost invincible. Moreover, he did not believe humans would throw nuclear bombs at him. Even if nuclear bombs were deployed, he could use the White Tiger Flying Daggers to deal with the bomb in the air before it had a chance to land.

"Alright, Boss! I'm waiting for you to show your might!" Zhao Yuting said. She quickly went upstairs to change out of her nightgown, which revealed her cleavage.

Zhao Yuting had an account on Dragon Net with millions of fans. However, she did not know how many of her fans had died or how many people would still be able to watch her live broadcast.

At this time, hundreds of thousands of people have been rescued by the military and sent to shelters in various provinces and cities. Although the number would not be large, there would still be people watching the broadcast.

…

In the conference hall.

"Those people…. They're all wearing armor from the divine runes?!"

"There are more than 100 of them! There's no doubt that Gu Changqing knows more about this matter…"

"If so, why didn't he tell us in advance? If he had done so, we wouldn't have to be so passive."

"Even if he did, would we have believed him?"

"Well, you have a point…"

The trio was still watching the situation at the shelter. They were unsurprisingly shocked when they saw Zhang Hu and the other men gathering at the gate, all dressed in armor from the divine runes. With this, they also confirmed that Gu Changqing knew more than he had let on.

Xuanyuan Wangrui from the Department of Political Affairs said, "It seems like they're going to deal with the army of ants now. Should we start a live broadcast? If they're powerful, we'll be able to calm the people's fear."

Long Zhanguo and Huang Mengguo nodded.

"Good idea. Tell someone to get it done."

At this time, they saw a man with a superior appearance and temperament toward the group of Divine Runemasters dressed in demonic armor.

"This person should be Gu Changqing, right?"

In the next moment, their eyes widened, and someone exclaimed, "That… Isn't that the Grim Reaper?"

When the group of Divine Runemasters stepped forward to greet Gu Changqing, he activated the Grim Reaper divine rune. A bone scythe appeared in his hand, and his body exuded the terrifying black aura of death immediately.

"I wonder what kind of divine runes he has…" Xuanyuan Wangrui said curiously.

"He must have a lot. In any case, all of them are really powerful. If we can recruit them, our Nine Region Empire will be able to quickly stabilize the situation," Huang Mengguo said enthusiastically.

"I'm really curious as well. Let's see how strong he is first…"

"He can't be weak no matter what…"

"I hope he'll be able to stabilize our Nine Region Empire…"

The trio had high hopes for Gu Changqing. They really hoped that he could lead the Nine Region Empire out of this haze.
