Online: I Can See Health Bars-Chapter 1200 - 528: News_2

Fang Yu scanned through most of the replies and basically concluded that there were very few people on the forum capable of rescuing Lei Shenhao. As for those shortsighted individuals without self-awareness, they naturally were seeking their own demise by barging into the Hai Family’s territory.

The only ones with any slight possibility of success were still trapped in Grand Sects, making it difficult to leave, let alone make a special trip to Sunset City to save someone.

It’s just talk, attracting countless envious and amazed viewers to the post, with the authenticity of even the Grand Sect disciple identities being quite hard to discern.

Even if true Grand Sect disciples came, wanting to ransom someone, given Lord Hai Lin’s current attitude towards Believers, it’s uncertain if he would give them face.

If they truly clashed with the local tyrants, the identity of a Grand Sect disciple would not suffice; at least the status of a Direct Disciple or Core Disciple with enough clout would be needed to hold the scene.

In short, with the conditions escalating step by step, Fang Yu had no expectations for Lei Shenhao’s self-rescue post.

Nailed it.

Only "nailed it" could describe it.

If Lei Shenhao isn’t squeezed dry this time, where else can one find such a cash cow in the future?

According to Lei Shenhao’s own account, he was determined to develop deeply in Sunset City, hence laying down many assets and hiding numerous resources there.

Though human is detained by the Hai Family, the things are still there, offered as bargaining chips.

If Fang Yu hadn’t known about it, it would be different; knowing now means this revenue has to be obtained, especially as Ding Hui mentioned she lacks funds for buying experimental materials.

Exit the forum and continue browsing other posts; recently, there seems to be significant events frequently.

The destruction of Tianyuan Town need not be elaborated upon, described by surviving Players as a monster siege event; analysis shows too few Player participants and too sudden an event led to a failed defense, and monsters occupying the town.

Some were lost upon breaking down, cursing at the futility as their character was reset.

Others were excited, praised the activity for its tension, adding to immersion.

In any case, the fall of an entire town like Tianyuan is a considerable event, hence maintains a decent forum heat, often bubbling up posts only to quickly fade away again.

Fang Yu was late in reading the posts, judging by replies within them, during the actual town destruction time, the forum was dominated by the news. Now, as time has passed, the news’s heat has declined, leaving fewer to bring it up.

As the game’s popularity continues to skyrocket, increasing Player numbers, the forum’s hot threads change daily, each topic being uniquely different; managing to top the rankings at all illustrates the weighty influence of Tianyuan Town’s demise.

Current heat reduction is normal regulation.

Apart from Tianyuan Town’s fall, there’s also a recent fleetingly popular thread about Hidden Sects.

"Extremely Heavy News! Legendary Five Great Holy Sects’ Hidden Grand Sect [Black Withered Saint Sect], has recently released a new wanted list! Kill the demons on the list, and you can immediately join the Black Withered Saint Sect!"

News about Hidden Sects is seldom seen.

Every Player strives desperately to have their characters join such Super Grand Sects, ascending to the pinnacle directly.

Unfortunately, there’s no pathway in.

Fang Yu previously heard about Black Withered Saint Sect in Tianyuan Town, but now it’s the first sighting on the forum.

Checking the post, what Black Withered Saint Sect wants is... Fallen Spirit Demon!!

Fang Yu’s pupils shrank instantly.

A living Fallen Spirit Demon??

Could current Players hunt such a thing??

No, more than the hunting itself, whether any Players even recognize this thing is the real conundrum.

From Fang Yu’s understanding, even in places like Tianyuan Town, it’s a highly advanced existence, and sealing what’s dead seems to be just a corpse.

Yet Hidden Sects are just different, wanting the live one killed outright...

Scrolling through replies underneath.

Players are all hyped as if injected with adrenaline.

"What? I can join Hidden Grand Sect? No one snatch this from me! I’m taking this quest!"

"Seriously? This Fallen Spirit Demon, what the heck is this freaky thing, never heard of it before."

"It has ’Demon’ in the name, must be a demon beast! Just kill it, and return with the body for a reward!"

"Fallen Spirit Demon, Fallen Spirit Demon, okay okay okay! Now there’s a goal: kill Fallen Spirit Demon, enter Grand Sect, live the high life like cyber gods!"

Sure enough, one by one, between the lines, nobody takes the Fallen Spirit Demon seriously.

Fang Yu flipped through several pages but lost interest in reading further.

The current Players have no accurate recognition of the value of the term Fallen Spirit Demon.

Come to think of it, some intel isn’t shared until corresponding power is reached.

"But... Black Withered Saint Sect... Fallen Spirit Demon... What world-defying act has this Fallen Spirit Demon done, to warrant a special wanted list from a Super Grand Sect among the Five Great Holy Sects..."

No matter how strong Fallen Spirit Demon becomes, Fang Yu doesn’t think it can stand against the entire Black Withered Saint Sect; being taken down seems only a matter of time.

Exit the post and continues browsing the forum.

The rest of the posts, besides various Player feuds and dramas, include old power shake-ups in Rolling Bone City and a resurgence of rebels in Thunder City, worth Fang Yu’s attentiveness.

Or perhaps, happenings in other unknown towns are too distant from Fang Yu; knowing their post content provides no practical use.

As for rumors in Rolling Bone City and Thunder City, they are just brief mentions, lacking detailed intel sharing.

Preparing to continue scanning for intel, wanting to see if there are any updates from Tianyuan Town, there came a knock on the door.

"Fang Yu."

It’s Qi Sheng.

Fang Yu promptly stood up.

"Uncle."

"Any progress?"

Qi Sheng seemed fatigued, as if not rested well for a long time.

Compared to Fang Yu continuously advancing the plan to rescue Qi Xiaojin, Qi Sheng, as Qi Xiaojin’s father, can only watch helplessly as his second daughter is kept frozen somewhere, while his eldest daughter lays in the hospital like a vegetative state; a once happy family left now only with a healthy young son. However, learning both elder sisters had accidents, his mental state isn’t well.

And his wife, drowned in tears daily.

Qi Sheng bears great pressure, but fortunately, he’s originally a big entrepreneur, capable of withstanding stress, or wouldn’t have held up Qi Family’s vast industry either.

"There’s a little progress, but still far from enough..."

Fang Yu didn’t want to give Qi Sheng excessive hope; currently, even Ding Hui’s theoretical foundation was derived through on-site research, barely predicting practical operation success, not to mention the considerable material needs yet unmet.

Fang Yu initially assumed this answer would make Qi Sheng pressure him.

Unexpectedly, Qi Sheng simply reached out, patting his shoulder.

"I can see you are genuinely caring toward my daughter... Thank you, go to the cafeteria for a meal, I’ve ordered the chef already. Let them know directly next time about anything you would like to eat."

Sincerely...

A moment touching him flashed past Fang Yu’s memory with Qi Xiaojin.

Sincerely...

Fang Yu felt somewhat shaken and uncertain but quickly suppressed these messy thoughts.

Ultimately, saving her life comes first; this gratitude outweighs any emotional matters.

By the time Fang Yu collected himself, Qi Sheng had already turned and left, just remembering something upon nearing the door.

"It’s been somewhat chaotic in Jiangnan City lately, I know you possess special abilities, but I hope you don’t get involved. Now’s not the time for you to enter the public eye."

Jiangnan City, somewhat chaotic?

Fang Yu felt puzzled, quickly recalling the night of Qi Xiaojin’s death, demons appearing... demons appearing in the real world!

Could it be...

Fang Yu had a sudden thought.

Once Qi Sheng departed, Fang Yu promptly checked the news on his phone.

Yet the news content was ordinary reporting, sometimes mentioning animals attacking people or self-media ghostly adventure mysterious disappearance, which was already relatively shocking.

Fang Yu’s eyes fluctuated between news about animal attacks and eerie adventure disappearances.

"Should I... go have a look?"

Fang Yu hesitated internally.
