Chapter 651: Chaos in Seoul |
"Tomato finally started the livestream."
"Look at him, he looks so exhausted and dispirited. Probably just finished doing it."
"As a newcomer, can someone tell me what he means by 'doing it'?"
"Hehe, little one, don't ask too much. If you ask me, I can only say, what the streamer did is just what you imagine."
"Is the streamer in South Korea? Isn't it illegal there?"
"You don't know this? Whether it's South Korea or Japan, it's actually illegal. But there are always people who can walk on the edge of the law, easily bypassing it. The governments of these two countries don't really care."
"Wow, how do you guys know so much?"
"The streamer has a chat group. He often chats in the group. Last time, he posted a picture of a cherry blossom girl that was really beautiful. That gentle look is the cherry blossom girl of my dreams."
"Newcomer asking for the group link!!"
"If you want the group link, why not give the streamer a tip? Professional old driver Tomato will take you flying around the world."
"…."
Tomato smiled as he looked at the barrage of comments flying across the screen. Under the instigation of some attentive viewers, these newcomers actually gave tips. Although Tomato didn't care much about these tips now, he still thanked them repeatedly.
"Thank you, thank you all for your support. To express my gratitude, I will continue the journey and show you the different landscapes of the seven continents and four oceans."
"We’ll do it the same as usual. When I return to the country, I'll write an article to introduce the play style in South Korea in detail. Don't worry about not knowing Korean. I've already tested for you guys. As long as you know some simple English, you can play in South Korea, unlike Japan."
"But recently, Japan has also changed a lot. Our country has become stronger, and with the recent Sino-Japanese friendship, we are culturally similar. Except for one high-end store, which still doesn't allow foreigners in, other places are now accessible. You don't have to worry about the language barrier anymore."
"Say it with me, Long live our country, and wish our motherland more prosperity!"
Tomato knew exactly what to say. He quickly rallied the audience, and soon, the barrage was filled with messages like 'Long live our country' and 'Our country is the strongest.'
‘Hehe, all good! I, Tomato, am a patriotic person. Who dares to say I'm not!’
‘Back then, I was a struggling writer for nothing. If it weren't for not being allowed to write explicit content, how could I have struggled? Now I finally have the chance to write again!’
Tomato sighed.
"Well, let's not talk about those things for now. Otherwise, Bilibili might ban me. As the biggest outdoor streamer on Bilibili, today, I will take everyone to see the real wealthy area of Seoul—Gangnam."
As he spoke, Tomato played the song "Gangnam Style."
The catchy tune played, and Tomato pulled his good brother in front of the screen again, "… Everyone, take a look. This is a real South Korean old driver. He is a gaming streamer, XXX. The room number is XXXX. Everyone can go and follow him~~"
While chatting with fans and friends, Tomato roamed around Gangnam, asking the South Korean old driver about some interesting things and introducing them to everyone. He seemed to be leading a group tour, and he also introduced some shops that could be visited, sharing addresses. Many viewers were excited and decided to organize a group trip to South Korea.
Just when everything was joyful, an urgent broadcast suddenly came over the street.
“What’s that sound”
“It sounds like the air raid siren.”
“Could it be that North Korea is attacking South Korea and has now prepared for an air raid?”
“North Korea's planes are not capable of airstrikes. Even if North Korea attacks South Korea, it would be more like a barrage of artillery and random firing of cannons!”
“...”
Another barrage of bullet comments floated across the screen of the mobile phone. At this moment, Tomato wrinkled his brows, feeling that something was not right.
However, he didn't panic. Ever since he went through the Tokyo incident, had a close encounter with Deep Ones, and narrowly escaped death, Tomato felt he had developed a steady temperament. In ordinary situations, he wouldn't easily lose his composure.
Just then, all the TV stations, radios, and even the large screens outside tall buildings in Seoul began broadcasting a newsflash.
“Citizens of Seoul, there is currently a crisis in the Seoul area. However, please do not panic. Our Descendants of the Sun are rushing to Seoul and will certainly resolve this crisis. Please, all citizens currently on the streets of Seoul, quickly return home or find the nearest shelter.”
The broadcast continued, providing information in Korean, English, Chinese, Japanese, and various other languages.
“What the hell is going on? They're just telling us to take cover, not explaining anything clearly!”
Tomato cursed under his breath.
At this moment, the South Korean man had already opened some South Korean websites on his phone. He was proficient in Korean and quickly found the reason for this crisis broadcast on the internet.
“Oh my God, Tomato, take a look. Seoul is under invasion by a large army of monsters. Look at these pictures taken by people in the northern outskirts of Seoul!”
He handed over his phone anxiously. Tomato took a look, and his heart sank.
The pictures were not clear, but you could see flames soaring into the sky, South Korean military forces in chaotic retreat, and repulsive monsters running amok in the sky and on the ground. Some mysterious mist shrouded the scene, and the entire image conveyed a sense of gruesome devastation.
"Damn it, I met the Deep Ones in Japan, and now I've encountered another monster invasion in South Korea. Could it be that I have some kind of attraction to the supernatural? If that's the case, next time I'll go to the famous mountains and rivers of China to be a backpacker and see if I can encounter any ancient immortal residences!"
Tomato cursed vehemently. Facing supernatural events like this, he was more panicked than anyone else.
“How cool, the streamer is really something. Monsters invade wherever he goes. Could it be that these monsters are attracted to him?”
“Stop making sarcastic remarks. Tomato, run quickly! We're still waiting for you to be our driver. You can't die in South Korea!”
“Last time you were lucky in Tokyo and didn't run into trouble. But this time, who knows? Hurry up and run!”
“Everyone, quickly check foreign websites to see what's really happening.”
“…”
Without the bullet comments reminding him, Tomato and the old driver, along with other people on the street, began to run for their lives.
“Brother, where is the nearest shelter around here?”
Tomato asked as he ran.
“How would I know? South Korea is far behind Japan in terms of shelters. I don't think we can find any shelters around here.”
“Damn, is the government stupid? Being targeted by North Korea's cannons every day, and they didn't even build more shelters!”
“What should we do? We can't get a taxi now, and I guess the subway is also closed. We're too far from our hotel here. There's no way we can run back.”
“I have experience in this. Even if we’re close to the hotel, we can't go back. There are too many tall buildings there. If they collapse, we won't have anywhere to run. I've seen people being crushed to death by buildings in Tokyo. These supernatural monsters are incredibly strong. Let's quickly look for a place with low-rise buildings around, and then find a shop to hide in. Don't worry about whether it's legal or not. Even if it's a closed store, we have to break the glass and hide inside!”
Drawing on his experience of fleeing in Tokyo, Tomato led the South Korean old driver in a desperate run, searching for a safe place.
