American comics: I drew Superman during the Great Depression

"What happened?!"

The aftermath of the explosion caused the two people in front of the hotel to stagger.

After coming back to his senses, he looked at the surrounding glass that shattered in the impact and the screaming crowds. Out of the keenness of a media reporter, Smith quickly pressed the switch of the camera and pointed the lens in the direction of the explosion.

"It's the Thunderbolts!"

By zooming in on the camera's screen, the cameraman saw what was happening in the distance. Under the lens of thick smoke, you can vaguely see the phantom of flashing light, accompanied by fierce shelling and angry roars.

Recognizing the identity of the phantom, Smith stabilized the camera's shooting angle and turned his attention to Colin beside him, who was waiting for the reporter's instructions.

Feeling the gaze of the cameraman, Colin made an immediate decision.

Of course, the reason why Colin was so decisive was definitely not the professional ethics of a reporter, but more of his intention to contact the members of the Thunder Agents in order to obtain more [time fragments].

"What happened, Colin?"

Although the newspaper was bought by business tycoon Dexter Bennett, the basic framework of the "Daily Bugle" did not change much. When the studio received a connection from an on-site reporter, the host responded immediately.

"Sorry to interrupt your report..."

While rushing to the location of the explosion, Colin introduced the situation at the scene through the camera lens.

"...But just a few minutes ago, a big explosion suddenly occurred in a neighborhood not far from the Hilton Hotel. We can still feel the aftermath of the explosion at the scene. We don't know yet what happened, but from the photos taken at the scene It can be seen from some of the footage obtained that it should be members of the Thunder Agents fighting at the scene...More details will not be clear until we arrive at the scene of the explosion..."

In conjunction with Colin's report, the cameraman turned the camera to the block where the explosion occurred, allowing everyone in the studio to have a more intuitive understanding of the specific situation at the scene.

"Colin, can you hear me?"

"Are you safe now? Do you need to evacuate?"

In the studio, after learning the specific situation of Colin and others, the host immediately asked.

"We are safe now..."

Colin and the others were about two streets away from the block where the explosion occurred.

By the time the host spoke in the studio, it was basically there.

Stopping and taking a breath, Colin looked at the police car parked on the road and continued reporting.

"It can be seen that the police have rushed to the scene. The specific casualties of the explosion are not yet known..."

Following Colin, Smith recorded the scene with a camera.

The thick smoke generated by the explosion turned everything around into gray. Just standing here for more than ten seconds, the camera lens was covered with a thin layer of dust.

Not just the camera footage, but Colin and Smith as well.

Seeing the huge damage caused by the explosion, both Colin and the cameraman subconsciously became cautious.

Carefully walking among the wreckage of the street, Colin looked around while answering the studio host's questions.

"...At present, some sounds of fighting can still be heard at the scene. It can be seen that the fighting situation is quite fierce. We will pass on the situation at the scene to everyone as much as possible while trying to ensure our own safety."

"Okay, it's all about safety, Colin."

The situation of the live broadcast not only affects the host in the studio, but also affects the audience watching the news in front of the TV.

【Faith (269/1000)】

At the same time, Colin saw at the scene.

The [Faith] points originally fixed at 268 points in the text also increased quietly.

It seems that [faith] can be obtained not only by selling newspapers in the real world.

The counter-world also has the possibility of increasing [faith].

"But why does the anti-world's [belief] not seem to increase as fast as the positive world's?"

If we compare the scale of media and the speed of information dissemination.

No matter how you look at it, the legs of a newsboy during the Great Depression cannot beat the footsteps of the Internet.

However, the growing trend of [faith] in front of him clearly told Colin that this was not the case.

"Is it because the development of the Internet media era has made it more and more convenient for people to receive information, but it has also caused people to have less and less patience in dealing with news. Everyone wants first-hand latest information. , instead of studying every word in the newspaper like in the past.”

Of course, all this is just Colin's speculation.

It does not represent the truth of the facts, especially now that he has not even figured out the specific role of [faith].

"...How is the situation at the scene, Colin?"

Here, Colin fell into speculation because of the change in [faith] in his eyes.

On the other side, in the studio, there was a brief silence.

The host asked him again.

"Colin, can you hear me?"

"Yes, I heard it..."

After recovering from the cameraman's reminder, Colin took a look at the surrounding situation and said: "In fact, we have walked a certain distance at the explosion site. We can see that the explosion caused serious damage to the surrounding streets. There are debris from the battle all over the place, but fortunately, so far we have not seen any injured people at the scene..."

Colin didn't believe that there were no casualties in such an explosion.

So the only possibility at the moment is that someone transfers these injured people as soon as possible.

In this way, he walked step by step while being filmed by the camera.

The picture under the lens became increasingly gray.

"No, there's nothing you can take if you go any further."

Stopping and calling Colin, Smith, who was in charge of filming, shook his head and said.

"It seems that we have no choice but to retreat."

Considering his own safety, Colin had to give up his plan to move forward.

He had just come out of the hospital not long ago, but he had no intention of going back so soon.

"Sorry, everyone, considering the danger of the scene and the poor visibility under the surrounding thick smoke, we have to go back along the original route..."

He turned around and apologized to the camera.

Colin and the cameraman were about to follow the same path back to the entrance of the block, but their eyes inadvertently caught sight of a vague figure wrapped in a large windbreaker moving in the thick fog in the distance.

However, before he could say anything.

The figure was covered by the thick fog and lost its trace.
