She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement-Chapter 477 - The Fall of the Prosperous Capital

Anna walked out of the elevator with a mini ice-blue Tyrannosaurus on her shoulder.

Seeing Sheng Xiao standing at the door of the ward, Anna ran to him and asked, “Professor Sheng, is Yu Huang’s treatment not over?”

“Not yet.”

Anna noticed that Sheng Xiao’s expression was a little heavy. She asked carefully, “Professor Sheng, are you unhappy? Your expression looks terrible.” Anna even suspected that Sheng Xiao had a fight with Yu Huang.

Sheng Xiao looked down at Anna.

At the thought of Vivian, Sheng Xiao quickly said to her, “Anna, help me do something.”

Anna quickly nodded. “Okay, go ahead.”

“There’s an emergency in the Prosperous Capital. There’s a Death Curse infection case. Vivian’s family is infected, and so is Mr. Jiang. Currently, Vivian is on her way to Jingdu. She’s pregnant. I want you to pick her up.”

Anna was stunned. “Professor Sheng, what is a Death Curse?” Anna had never heard of such a thing.

Sheng Xiao frowned. He said, “The Death Curse is an incurable curse. There was a case of the Death Curse in a city in the Great World. When the illness flared up, more than nine million people died. No one succeeded in overcoming the Death Curse even until they died. Those nine million people were burned to death after the city was sealed.”

Anna’s fair face turned pale.

“This…”

Anna’s eyes turned red.

She covered her face with her hand and asked in disbelief, “Are you saying that the Prosperous Capital will also… suffer a plague?” The Prosperous Capital was Anna and Yu Huang’s hometown. Their former classmates, teachers, and friends lived there.

Would they all die?

Would they all get burned to death?

“…Yes!” Sheng Xiao was shocked. He sat on the iron chair in the corridor in a daze and rubbed his face.

No one dared to face such a despairing situation.

There were more than eight million civilians in the Prosperous Capital!

That was more than eight million lives!

Who was the one who dared to activate the Death Curse?!

Anna leaned against the wall for a while before saying hoarsely, “I’ll pick Vivian up.”

“Okay.”

As soon as Anna left, the ward door opened.

The Healer’s assistant walked out and said to Sheng Xiao, “The treatment is perfect. Master Yu’s body is recovering well.” The Healer who treated Yu Huang was the Royal Healer and the Empress Jiang Ruixue’s mentor. His name was Ye Qing’an. He was a Grand Master Healer.

“That’s good.”

Ye Qing’an was a man with a gentle gaze. Most of the Healers had gentle and calm auras. Ye Qing’an was wearing a white shirt and beige pants. He sat on the sofa with a tired expression, but he still looked dignified.

Sheng Xiao poured a cup of tea for Ye Qing’an and handed it to him. “Grand Master Ye, it’s been hard on you. Have a cup of tea.”

Ye Qing’an took the tea and took a sip. He said, “I’m fine. I’ll be fine after resting for half a day.” Ye Qing’an suddenly tilted his head and looked at his assistant. He said, “I think I hear my phone ringing. Xiao Yu, bring me my phone.”

“Alright, Teacher.”

Xiao Yu handed the phone to Ye Qing’an. After Ye Qing’an unlocked it, he realized that Empress Jiang Ruixue had called him three times.

Jiang Ruixue rarely called him.

What had happened?

Ye Qing’an was about to make a call when he heard Sheng Xiao say, “It should be about the Prosperous Capital.”

Yu Huang’s clothes were stained with blood. She had just changed her clothes. Yu Huang walked out of the changing room and heard Sheng Xiao’s words. She looked up and asked, “What happened in the Prosperous Capital?”

Ye Qing’an looked at Sheng Xiao blankly.

Sheng Xiao said in a low voice, “There’s a Death Curse case in the Prosperous Capital.”

Hearing this, Ye Qing’an immediately stood up and shouted in a daze, “How could this be?!” According to history, the Death Curse had only appeared once in the Upper World. How could such an evil and cruel curse appear in the Holy Spirit Continent, and in the populous Prosperous Capital?!

Yu Huang also knew about the Death Curse. Lin Jiansheng had said that the key to the Death Curse was to plant the Cursed Fruit. As for the Cursed Fruit, it required at least a hundred Beast Tamers with the cultivation level of a Supreme Master to take the initiative to dig out their Beast Hearts and sacrifice them!

Why would a Death Curse appear on the Holy Spirit Continent?

Who had the ability to make a hundred Supreme Masters take the initiative to contribute their beast hearts?!

Ye Qing’an couldn’t sit still anymore. He said, “I have to go to the Prosperous Capital to take a look!”

Ye Qing’an left.

After he left, Sheng Xiao turned around and stared at Yu Huang.

Yu Huang also looked at him.

“Let’s go.” Yu Huang knew that Sheng Xiao would go to the Prosperous Capital even without Sheng Xiao’s reminder.

The Prosperous Capital was Yu Huang’s hometown. It would be too cruel for her to watch her hometown being sealed. Sheng Xiao couldn’t bear it. He said, “Your injuries haven’t fully healed. You should go home and rest. I’ll go.”

“I’m fine.” Yu Huang insisted on going with him.

“Alright then.”

At one o’clock in the afternoon, all the stations, airports, and docks in the Prosperous Capital were guarded by the army and stopped.

The roads in the town and village were all sealed. The people working outside weren’t allowed to enter the Prosperous Capital again. Similarly, the citizens of the Prosperous Capital weren’t allowed to go out.

Some of the passengers who had already bought their tickets but weren’t allowed to board couldn’t help but feel unhappy and cause trouble.

“What’s going on?! We bought the tickets through legitimate sources. Why can’t we get on the bus?!” At the maglev train station, more than three thousand passengers were protesting.

They raised the bus tickets in their hands and roared at the staff.

“If the train stopped running, you should have informed us in advance! Why did it suddenly stop running?! My mother is seriously ill and is lying in the hospital now, waiting for me to go back and see her for the last time! If I miss this chance, I will never see my mother again in my life. You guys will be responsible!”

“Let us get on the train! We have tickets! You have to let us in the train!”

“There has to be a reason why the train suddenly stopped running! You can’t delay our work for no reason!”

“I want a refund! A refund!”

There were people venting their dissatisfaction at the airport, the bus stop, and the harbor.

At this moment, a maglev train suddenly stopped at the Prosperous Capital Station.

When they saw the floating train that was allowed to enter the Prosperous Capital Station, an agitated traveler shouted, “Didn’t they say that the entire country’s trains are prohibited from stopping at the Prosperous Capital Station? Why is that train allowed?!”

When the station staff saw that train No. 11 had arrived, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand and said to the manager, “Maglev train No. 11 has arrived. Please give your instructions!”

The manager replied, “Open the passageway!”

“Yes!”

The door of maglev train No. 11 opened and a man in an iron-gray military uniform walked out. When the staff saw his face, he immediately saluted him. “Your Highness!”

Mo Yelou nodded at him. Then, he put on an airtight gas mask.

Seeing this, the staff member was stunned.

Even now, as staff members, they didn’t know why the train had stopped.

Seeing the prince put on his gas mask, the staff member had a guess that made his scalp tingle.

Could it be that a super virus had been discovered in the Prosperous Capital?

When they saw Mo Yelou lead a group of soldiers wearing gas masks to the train station and quickly surround the various exits, the passengers finally panicked.

“What exactly happened?”

When they noticed the dagger-shaped embroidery on the chests of the soldiers, everyone was extremely surprised.

“Isn’t that the Prince’s Sword Edge Army?!”

“The prince actually personally brought people to guard the bus stop. What exactly happened?”

Mo Yelou stood on the second floor of the train station. He held a gun in his left hand and a microphone in his right.

Seeing the commotion in the station, Mo Yelou opened the microphone and pulled the trigger without blinking.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Three gunshots were transmitted to the broadcast speakers everywhere through the microphone.

All the passengers were so frightened that they covered their ears and screamed.

After a moment, they stopped screaming and took their hands away from their ears. Then, they looked up at the man in the middle of the second floor who was wearing the Sword Edge Army uniform and had the Prince’s Medal on his shoulder.

Mo Yelou swallowed hard and slowly raised the microphone in his hand. “Hello, everyone. I’m Mo Yelou.”

It was really the prince!

All the passengers fell silent and stared at the prince in silence. The uneasiness in their hearts grew.

“Everyone, I’m sorry to announce a piece of despairing news.” Under the mask, Mo Yelou licked his dry lips with a heavy heart before saying in a hoarse voice, “Dozens of Death Curses have been discovered in the Prosperous Capital. It is constantly spreading. The Death Curse is a type of evil curse that can’t be cured and is highly contagious. It can be spread rapidly through the air, breeze, saliva, and skin contact.”

“As for those who are infected, within three days, all their internal organs will rot and they will vomit to death. We have done the simulation data. According to the speed of the Death Curse’s spread, in less than two days, eight million people in the Prosperous Capital will be infected. In less than three days, the Prosperous Capital and the five surrounding cities will also be infected. In less than five days, the entire Divine Moon Empire will fall!”

“After a deep discussion between the Beast Tamer Alliance and the Divine Moon Empire’s royal family, we had no choice but to make a sorrowful decision. That is…” Mo Yelou stared at the unfamiliar faces below. His gaze lingered on the children who were only three to four years old for a moment before he choked on his tears and said—

“Seal the city!”

The moment the words “seal the city” were said, the entire station was in an uproar again.

“Seal the city! They actually decided to seal the city. Are they going to abandon the Prosperous Capital and the millions of people in the Prosperous Capital?!”

“Heavens! How could such a thing happen?!”

Not only were the passengers stunned, but even the station staff were shocked.

So this was the truth!
