Extraordinary in Reality Through Magic Games

433: Chapter 419 (Anti-theft Chapter) (Main text will be updated in a few hours)The rioters targeted luxury hotels, and the Magic School candidates who had initially escaped the disaster inevitably encountered them.

Thanks to the multiple displays of great power by extraordinaries from various countries, the rioters, who were almost entirely driven by instinct, finally regained a bit of reason under the deterrent of fear and did not dare to commit violence against the candidates.

The candidates’ parents did not let down their guard because of this.

The rioters gathered at the door or those who had already intruded into the living room did not disperse; they lingered in place, their greedy eyes scanning the property in the house and the exceptionally beautiful female family members.

Mr. Gao was powerful—no one dared to question that. People facing danger also believed that these rampant criminals would inevitably face severe punishment afterward.

But by then, it would be too late.

At this moment, the fathers certainly wouldn’t cling to their property. They protected their children and wives, telling the rioters that as long as they didn’t harm them or their families, they could take anything else as they pleased.

A group of criminals blinded by wealth naturally wouldn’t think of being polite before acting; they immediately rushed to various parts of the room to loot.

However, just as they started moving, someone’s voice abruptly sounded in their ears—the content was a single word: ’Light’.

Their consciousness instinctively analyzed it, trying to find the deep meaning hidden in the noun, but there was no result, though everyone had their guesses.

The voice was incredibly clear, as if whispering in their ears, yet no source could be found nearby. From the stunned expressions of their companions, it was clear everyone had heard it; this was not something current technology could achieve.

If extraordinaries had never appeared in the world, they might have thought it was a secret weapon unannounced by the military. But everyone knew that Mr. Gao was descending upon New Moon City today.

In an instant, horror occupied their minds and attacked their hearts with a brutal and overbearing posture.

Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads like it cost nothing. Trembling defeated their brains and took over every control nerve and every muscle.

Though no one announced it, they understood: Mr. Gao had arrived.

Run!

The tempting wealth lost all its charm at this moment. Only one thought remained in the rioters’ hearts—escape.

However, when they tried to put it into action, they found they couldn’t move.

Their limbs seemed to have escaped their control; no matter how they urged them, there was no response, and they remained in their current postures while looking around.

Huddled in the corner, the terrified parents noticed the abnormality at this moment.

”What’s wrong with them, Daddy?” The daughter held in his arms looked up, asking in confusion while staring at her father’s chin.

”It seems... they can’t move?” The rioters had eerily come to a standstill, and the father guessed hesitantly.

The danger seemed to have vanished. The wife, hiding behind her husband, poked her head out from the side. After observing the rioters for a while and thinking it over, she said excitedly, ”Could it be that Mr. Gao saved us?”

Mr. Gao?

Right!

In this bizarre and magical scene before them, who else in all of America could do this besides Mr. Gao?

”The assessment!”

Waking up from the joy of escaping danger, the father remembered the reason Mr. Gao had come here. Not bothering to find a rope to tie up the rioters, he hurriedly pulled his wife and daughter and ran downstairs.

Meanwhile, the chaos on the streets had also calmed down.

The people crowding the streets and alleys of New Moon City stopped running around and all looked up blankly at the high sky.

A person was suspended there.

His figure was not as massive as a giant; he appeared to be the size of an ordinary human. It was dusk, and night was sweeping in from the horizon. The light was dim, and his face was shrouded in gloomy shadows, making it impossible to see his features or even his gender.

It felt as if days had passed, yet also as if only a few seconds had gone by. He raised his right arm, holding a ’wooden stick’ in his hand.

Then, people heard a cold tone echoing around them—’Light’.
