The news spread, and the whole network was shocked.

With everyone's unanimous agreement, Li Team reported the plan.

Just then, Secretary He, who had received the news, also arrived at the scene. After hearing the plan, he immediately nodded in agreement to execute it and had Li Secretary contact the urban construction team to build the metal container wall as quickly as possible.

In an instant, the entire construction site began to operate like gears.

Everyone worked together, some digging pits and some digging shock-absorbing trenches.

Some were responsible for transporting large amounts of soil from other places, while others were transporting truckloads of sandbags.

As for water bags, Police Officers at the scene could only work together to use special bags to collect water and transport them bag by bag.

The scene was in full swing, everyone was sweating profusely from exhaustion, and even Director Yang and Secretary He personally helped with the water bags.

In less than an hour, a pit about ten meters deep was dug.

When the bomb was safely placed in the pit, the Experts began to act.

They first covered the area around the bomb with emulsified explosives similar to sausages, and then connected the fuses.

This was to better release the bomb's energy completely, and also to make it easier for the Experts to control it precisely, greatly increasing safety.

After dealing with the fuses, the next step was the burial work. To avoid burying the shock-absorbing trench, a layer of wooden boards was specially placed on top.

In just under half an hour, the original ten-meter deep pit was completely covered with soil.

However, this soil was only piled on top and was not firm at all, nor did they dare to compress it. If it exploded, the soil would not be able to withstand the shockwave.

So, a long layer of bamboo poles was laid on top.

Both ends of the bamboo poles extended beyond the pit, and then ten-ton sandbags were placed on top.

Finally, water bags weighing over 50 tons were placed on top of the sandbags.

This process was long and arduous. During this time, the residents around Pedestrian Street had already become agitated.

Almost everyone had been moved to a square two kilometers away.

The scene was bustling with noise, with children crying, adults arguing, and pets barking incessantly.

Reporters from West Sea City's local television station had arrived early to begin live broadcasting.

“Audience friends, what we are seeing now are the residents from around Pedestrian Street who have come to take shelter. It can be seen that everyone is still very nervous at this time. Next, I will take you to randomly interview a few people to understand their current feelings.”

Facing the reporters' interviews, everyone complained endlessly.

At first, it was fine. Upon hearing about the bomb, they were all terrified and ran faster than rabbits.

But as time went on, they gradually began to lose patience.

Some were puzzled, feeling that it was an overreaction.

Some were worried, afraid that their homes would be gone after coming out.

Many people clamored to go back, demanding that the police cordon be opened so they could go home and retrieve their valuables.

In addition to television stations, online media, streamers, and influencers also traveled long distances to live stream the event.

Around the square, young men and women could be seen everywhere standing in front of a live broadcast stand, constantly shouting “Old irons, babies, families!”

“Families, want to know what happened? A Porsche, and I'll go ask the Police Officer. A Carnival, and I'll take you to the scene!”

The netizens in the live stream only needed to see the bustling scene to be sufficiently captivated.

With the streamer's embellishment, their popularity quickly soared, and various gifts were continuously showered, urging the streamer to go live from the scene.

Seeing so many gifts pouring in, how could they not be tempted?

But the problem was, Pedestrian Street had already been cordoned off, and they couldn't get through at all.

Some took risks and tried to sneak through, but they were all discovered by the police and sent back.

Seeing that the live stream was full of curses, those influencer streamers completely panicked.

It was so hard to finally take off, how could they be willing to return to square one?

Just as they saw that the residents at the scene all wanted to go back, they also took the opportunity to continuously incite emotions, so they could mix in and go back to live stream.

For a time, the scene erupted in unusually fierce protests, which made the work of the police maintaining order very difficult.

They kept explaining, patiently telling them not to worry, that Experts were already handling it, and they would be able to return soon.

However, such reassurance had little effect.

In desperation, Team Chen picked up a megaphone and shouted.

If they really couldn't bear it, they could open Lin Yuan's live stream to watch the live broadcast from the scene.

Hearing that they could watch a live stream, the agitated residents instantly quieted down a lot and pulled out their phones to watch the live stream.

But those influencer streamers were dumbfounded.

Because they found that the popularity of their live streams was rapidly disappearing at a visible rate.

They didn't even need to guess to know where they went.

This sudden situation completely bewildered them. So, all their hard work was for nothing, just to benefit others?

In fact, not only did they not expect it, but Lin Yuan himself did not expect it.

As the demolition project continued, the popularity of the live stream continuously surged.

1 million!

1.5 million!

2 million!

After all, this was the only time in peacetime that such a massive bomb was detonated in an urban area.

Not to mention young netizens, even the older generation had never seen such a scene.

Television stations, traffic radio, and major media channels all rebroadcast it, and even CCTV interrupted with temporary news, which was shocking.

Various APP software on mobile phones also sent pop-up messages, and many people were drawn into the live stream even while going to the bathroom.

Countless netizens, like a flood, swarmed in. 2 million didn't last long before breaking through 3 million concurrent viewers.

It's important to know that it was afternoon now, and still working hours. What would happen during rush hour after work?

Unimaginable! Unimaginable!

So at this moment, the entire production team was in complete chaos.

Although they had just held a meeting and planned how to respond next.

But this was too fast.

In less than two hours, it went from 1 million to 3 million!

Terrifying!

The previous plans were instantly disrupted.

But just in case, the manager gritted his teeth and made an immediate decision to close the live streams of other contestants.

It's 3 million now, who knows how much it will become in the end.

However, this shutdown immediately showed its side effects.

The other 99 contestants were unaware and continued to live stream, but their fans were stunned when they saw the black screen.

At first, they thought it was a malfunction.

But gradually, after waiting for a long time, there was no broadcast.

Countless people called the headquarters to complain, and the customer service phones were almost smoking.

The official forum of the show was in an uproar, everyone wanted to know what happened, and if the show was suspended.

——【What's going on? Why is contestant 48's live stream a black screen? It hasn't been fixed for over ten minutes. What are they doing? If they don't have the technology, don't make a show, go home and farm.】

——【Holy cow! Live stream 50 is also a black screen. I was wondering, are all other live streams suspended? Was the show called off?】

——【Yes, all other contestants' live streams are suspended. I checked more than twenty, all are black screens. Something must have happened at the headquarters.】

——【Nonsense, there's no problem at all, and it's not all suspended. Lin Yuan's live stream, number 66, is still broadcasting. He's the only one left in the entire show.】

——【Holy cow? Is that true? Why? Is the production team no longer fair? You don't have to be so obvious if you want to rig it.】

——【Ignorant, I just went to check. If you had watched his live stream, you wouldn't say that. Brothers, hurry to Lin Yuan's live stream, something big happened!】

——【Oh my, Lin Yuan? I came because of him. What happened? Brothers, let's go home.】

——【Let's go home!!! Hurry up!】

——【My God! Detonating a bomb?】

When the fans on the forum saw this post, they all rushed to Lin Yuan's live stream.

As a result, they couldn't leave anymore.

Live detonation of a super large aerial bomb!

What live stream could be more exciting than this?

Now, the popularity of the live stream surged again, directly breaking through to 5 million!

The manager never dreamed that by closing the live streams of other contestants, not only did he not lose popularity, but he further enhanced their stickiness.

After watching Lin Yuan's live stream, they not only would not resent the production team for closing other contestants' live streams, but would instead feel that it should be done that way.

Otherwise, they would have missed the opportunity to watch the live broadcast from the scene.

After all, live streams can be watched every day, but detonating an aerial bomb might not be seen once in a lifetime.

At such a moment, not only did they watch it themselves.

Privately, inMoments, discussion groups, it was being spread everywhere.

This was like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, and the popularity of the live stream grew more and more.

As time went on, the manager looked at the total number of people on the server backend, and he was dumbfounded!!

Previously, with other contestants plus Lin Yuan, the total number of people on the server was less than 5 million.

But now it's over 6 million!

What the hell, they closed the other 99, but the popularity got even higher?

If he had known this, why bother holding a meeting? Just close them directly.

However, something even more terrifying was yet to come.

At Lin Yuan's construction site, after several hours of busy work, all the covering and excavation work was completed.

Even the last step, the metal container wall, was rushed to the scene by the urban construction team and began to be assembled and installed.

By the time everything was ready, the sky gradually darkened.

The fiery clouds in the distance looked like a raging inferno, as if foreshadowing what was about to happen.

At Secretary He's command, Director Yang began to direct the scene, and everyone gradually evacuated.

After a busy afternoon, the Police Officers were already exhausted.

When they arrived at the square two kilometers away for shelter, they all collapsed onto the ground, not caring how dirty the ground was.

The residents at the scene, seeing this, surprisingly did not cause a commotion as before.

Through the live broadcast, they knew how much effort the Police Officers had put in.

Their actions were also to protect their property.

For a time, a large number of residents spontaneously came forward to offer them water and food, and some even offered towels and wet wipes, wanting them to clean their sweaty bodies.

Such a heartwarming scene made the Police Officers, who had been tired all afternoon, suddenly feel that it was all worth it.

Netizens in the live stream saw this scene and praised the relationship between the police and the people in West Sea City.

Even Secretary He couldn't help but smile, his heart filled with joy.

However, after a brief relaxation, their nerves would soon tighten again.

Once everyone was safely evacuated, the final moment was approaching!
