Chapter 628 The Press Conference
Click!
The huge conference hall was filled with reporters. There were people from various countries. When Gerald and the others
walked in, the sound of shooting rang in Gerald’s ears.
Gerald frowned slightly, then walked to the designated seat, and sat down.
Carolyn and Valery sat next to him.
There were only three of them. Claude was still taking care of Kristen, and the others were still lying down for treatment. As for
Belinda, she did not want to show her face in public.
Thus, only Gerald and the other two came over.
After Gerald sat down, he placed a lot of documents in front of him!
On it were shocking numbers.
After Gerald sat down, many photographers began to shoot him. Next to him, a person said, “This is Gerald Kenneth, the one in
charge of American Night Watch. I think everyone saw him on the screen when the war was still on. This is the doctor of
American Night Watch and the best doctor in the world, Valery Manning! This is a member of Gerald’s Team 11762 and also the
deputy captain, Carolyn Berry! Everyone can now ask questions.”
Gerald exhaled and looked down with a dull gaze.
This was the first time he had faced such a thing. It was even the first time in history for Night Watch!
From hiding in the dark to coming to the stage, this was a huge change. Gerald was still not used to it.
As soon as the person finished speaking, hundreds of reporters in the venue raised their hands quickly. The person in charge of
the order stretched out his hand and said, “Miss!”
Gerald looked over. A golden-haired woman stood up. Her face had an aggressive expression. At the same time, she picked up
a microphone and said, “Mr. Kenneth, did we win this battle?”

Gerald looked at the countless microphones on the table and nodded. “Yes, we won!”
“Before this, none of the ordinary people knew about the invasion of the Elite Ghosts. Night Watch claimed that you didn’t want to
announce it at that time because you were afraid that the whole world would be in chaos! The female reporter’s voice fell into
Gerald’s ears. “But now that the Elite Ghosts have arrived, it has caused a great loss to the world. The number of deaths of
ordinary people is shocking, including your people. Watchmen Do you think if you announce it in advance, there will be a chance
to avoid such a great loss? Everyone will have the time to get prepared...”
During her question, she discovered that Gerald was looking at her with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
Her question was quite sharp During this period, countless people had been questioning Night Watch online. However, along
with the start of the war, everyone knew that if Night Watch lost, they might die too. Their hopes were placed on the Watchmen,
making this questioning voice slowly become smaller.
At this time, this female reporter brought it up again.
Then, Gerald let out a breath and asked with a frown, “So what you mean is that we, Watchmen, should be responsible for these
dead people, right?”
The female reporter was stunned, then gritted her teeth, and said, “I think so. Night Watch should indeed be responsible for their
deaths.”
Gerald frowned, and anger rose in his heart!
Just a day ago, the Watchmen put in all their efforts for the life and death of these people sitting here to interview. Now, he was
being questioned by these people.
However, at this time, he was quite calm. He did not answer the reporter directly. Instead, he said faintly, “What do you want the
Watchmen to do?”
The female reporter was stunned again. She seemed to have been prepared. After hearing Gerald’s words, she calmly replied, “I
think the Watchmen should have revealed all of this to the public a long time ago. When the meteor appeared, everyone would
go to a relatively safe place instead of taking out their phones to film this so-called magic wonder. If everyone knew it and hid, we
could avoid a lot of unnecessary losses!”
Gerald slowly let out a breath and said, “One, you have seen the abilities of the Elite Ghosts. Do you think you can really hide?
Two, if we announce it in advance, society will inevitably panic in the face of the apocalypse. I think you should know what the

consequences will be in such a situation. The crime rate had increased greatly when the Elite Ghost arrived this time. You should
have the data, right?”
When Gerald finished speaking, the reporter frowned slightly and wanted to continue to say something.
At this time, the person in charge of the scene’s order stopped her and said, “Next question.”
The reporter had a helpless expression, but she had to sit down.
Soon, another reporter stood up. It was a man. He looked at Gerald and asked, “Mr. Kenneth, may I ask if the Elite Ghosts will
never come again? We are also clear now that the ability of that Purple Elite Ghost is quite. strong. Mr. Villanueva used his last
strike. If the next time the Purple Elite Ghost comes again, will Night Watch still have the ability to resist it?”
His question was much more reasonable, not as sharp as the female reporter from before.
Gerald let out a breath and said, “The Elite Ghosts will definitely come again. Night Watch will still set up defenses around the
world. Some of the Elite Ghosts will not affect everyone’s daily life. The social order can be restored. Everyone can eat, drink,
and return to normal life. As for the Purple Elite Ghost, I don’t know when the next time it comes. When it comes, I am not sure if
anyone can fight it. Now I only say that I am no match for it.”
When Gerald’s voice fell, the entire venue fell into silence!
No one was able to resist. If the Purple Elite Ghost came again, it meant that they might be in danger.
They had witnessed the destructive power of the Purple Elite Ghost, so when Gerald said this calmly, they could not help but fall
silent.
Looking at the silent scene, Gerald frowned and said, “But even at that time, we will use our bodies to block in front of you. I will
also face the Purple Elite Ghost directly. Even if I die, the Watchmen and I will die before everyone!”
His voice was very calm and not loud, but it was sonorous and forceful, kept in everyone’s mind.
Clap, clap, clap!
After a short silence, a burst of applause rang in Gerald’s ears.
Then the entire venue quickly rang with deafening applause.

After the applause, the third reporter asked again. It was a reporter from Australia. She looked at Gerald and said, “We saw it on
the live broadcast and on TV. The war this time was very fierce, and countless heroes died in the battle. May I ask if the strength
of the Watchmen can withstand the coming of the Elite Ghosts?”
At this time, Valery took the microphone. She said, “According to the past, after a large-scale descent of the Elite Ghosts, there
will be a certain period of dormancy. Therefore, for a short period, we have a certain amount of time to recuperate.”
Speaking of this, she winked at Gerald.
Gerald let out a breath and thought of Zackary’s warning before. He pondered for a moment and said, “Since I attended this
press conference, I have something to announce!”
“Three days later, Night Watch will start recruiting from the whole world. If you are not a fighter, we can cultivate you.
If you are, then you are welcome to join. There are some conditions too. The specific rules of each country are different. If there
are people who want to become Watchmen and want to fight side by side with us, after the recruitment order is issued, you can
go to register!” Gerald said calmly.
After that, he exhaled and said, “The second thing is that from now on, everyone can return to normal work and life!”
