Chapter 2230 Spread
The Sanatan region was thrown into chaos.
The messages were sent to everyone. Everyone had their worst enemies exposed in front of their eyes. As they digested all the news they got, they couldn"t help but mull over Hub"s threat. If with a single message, it could do this much damage, what exactly is it hiding?
What can it do with all hundred percent of its knowledge?
What is it hiding? And to what extent the damage will be if this is just a warning shot? What would the extreme measures mean?
Millions of questions ran through everyone"s mind. Even though they learned that the hub has recorded all of their events, secrets and such, they didn"t feel the same level of urgency as they did now.
Because they didn"t know where the transferred information went.
They didn"t know what is happening with that information. But now that they saw the sample, they wanted to know just to what extent the hub has scanned them. The fear is such a funny thing.
It makes people act on impulse.
The first impulsive decision is that many people destroyed the bird puppets and the wrist bands they are wearing. As if the recordings in it will just be disappeared along with it. b.l.o.o.d.y idiots.
Some people, immediately went to the Viswa Karma academy to dismantle their bird puppets and attain the memory storage device inside it. In the hopes that they could "delete" that information.
Some people, which are the most common kind immediately went after the people that are now proven to be targeting them. Fights broke out everywhere. Fights to death mostly. n.o.body interfered immediately. Not even the Deans.
Because, even they don"t know what kind of secret about them was revealed to their enemies.
Everyone became paranoid.
But these are not the only consequence. The biggest one caused the most chaos in the Sanatan region. That is the public knowledge. Even when Virat figured out what Bird puppets are capable of doing and even though the information was shared among the higher ups of all the academies in Sanatan region, the information was still air-tight.
Much less the common populace, even not all of the students in the Sanatan region learned about this.
Only the people involved and then the people that were added as the research team to dismantle the hub were aware of this. Because of it, the news didn"t leak to the other regions. Now… the news is out to the rest of the populace.
And they started attacking each other.
At the same time, the spies of other regions that are residing here also got the news and it immediately spread to the higher ups in the other regions. That was the immediate spread. But there is a slower one.
Some people started escaping the Sanatan city and they escaped to various other cities. These are commoner citizens and of course, they are going to meet other commoners in the other cities. If anyone asks "what"s up?" they could more or less share the story of how hub steals their secrets.
Of course, even before the public chaos could see a raise, the private chaos already sparked.
The Deans of all the Olympian academies got the news and the next moment their anger almost destroyed everything in their way as they arrived in front of the hub.
"We need to destroy it. Immediately."
They all had the same thoughts in their minds. After all, Sanatan region is considered a relatively united and peaceful region compared to all the other region. Olympian region among them is the worse. They don"t have any unity unless they all have a common enemy.
Even in that situation, they more or less have to stay vigilant about stabbing each other in the back.
They are just full of venomous people.
There is no doubt that they all are involved in all kinds of schemes against each other. If Hub really revealed all of those secrets… things would be much worse than the previous academy war. None of them would be able to walk away without suffering losses.
Whole of the academy realm will be swept in it causing ma.s.sive losses to everyone.
They didn"t even communicate, but everyone is of the same mind. They wanted to destroy the hub to the very last brick. They all extended their hands, energy gathered around it as they charged their attacks. They didn"t want to hold back.
No matter what happens, even if that mysteriously powerful Joker comes, they are ready to face him. They just couldn"t give it a chance to recover. All of a sudden, Divine energy and spiritual energy in the surroundings all swept towards that one area.
A cold breeze brought a strange stillness to the Olympian region.
Everyone with sane senses felt like something ominous is happening. The elders felt the extent to which the attacks are being charged.
*BOOM*
As if they were all on cue, they release their attacks at the exact same moment and it sounded like a unified explosion. The sound didn"t come from the collision, rather just from the release of the attacks.
The surrounding s.p.a.ce cracked a bit as if the fabric of reality is threatened by these attacks.
Even before the attacks reached the hub, the surroundings walls collapsed into dust. However, before the attacks could connect and obliterate the hub…
*SWOOSH*
A flash negated all the attacks.
The deans all exchanged a glance. There are only two deans that are not there at the moment. One is Wharton and the other is the Dean of Zeus academy. Of course, Heron is not in a situation to come and b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot didn"t come.
The Deans already guessed that only b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot or Wharton could negate these attacks.
And they didn"t even have to keep guessing for long as the bright light cleared in a moment. b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot hovered in front of the Hub looking at the Deans with cold expression.
"I remember, clearly stating word by word, that the Hub cannot be touched. Have you lost your minds?"
His voice was menacing.
"b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot, we are already full of suspicions towards you. You are jet to clear your name, now your actions are implying that you have no intention of doing this either. Are you aligned with the Hub?"
b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot sighed. He knew situation like this would occur sooner or later. He just didn"t expect it to develop so fast.
"Think whatever you want. But the Hub is not to be touched. You better go back to your academies."
As he spoke, all of a sudden….
*DING* *DING* *DING*
Their wrist bands started chiming.
It is a sound they have gotten accustomed to. But now… it sounded so ominous.
They hurriedly opened the messages. The screen that appeared felt familiar to them. Because they just heard it in the descriptions of the messages they received from their spies. The green screen, with a list of videos. Some marked with green while the top ten marked with red.
But the contents in the list are a lot more than the ones in the lists of Sanatan region people.
"Because of the radical actions of several Deans, a warning measure has been taken in retaliation. Twenty-five percent of the gathered information has been released. If any other action is taken, the hub will make the hundred percent information available to the public along with the measures of mutual destruction."
This threat is a lot more direct and fearsome.
Even when the Deans are digesting the information, they also sensed various incidents happening in the Olympian city.
There are not many people left. Because of the slaughter carried out by the managers, most of the commoners left the city. Only a select few people, who had deeper roots in the city stayed back.
The students are all gathered in the city though. With such high tensions they impulsively acted. Fights broke out.
"You better go back and handle your academies. Let"s restrain our own people. There is no need to have fights in such situation.
When the time comes I will explain myself to you."
That is all b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot said.
The Deans gritted their teeth and they are reluctant to leave the hub alone.
But they didn"t want to risk the leakage of the hundred percent of the info. They still don"t know how they could tackle the hub without triggering something like that. Also, they are sure some impulsive elders might just cause destruction of academy if the Deans are not there.
Everyone reluctantly left.
b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot heaved a sigh and looked at the Hub. The outer walls are gone. They are not regenerating like how they usually do.
He sighed once again and left.
A similar scene has been taking place in the Norse region. However, b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot"s role is taken by Gungnir, while the opposition is not just Deans, but also the Elders as well. In the same way, around twenty percent information has been leaked and the region was thrown into utter chaos.
While things are like this, Sam is also on the last leg of the twelfth trail.
