Chapter 1282: Chapter 67: Supernatural Event Prevention Center_3
The crowd, who had been arguing and waiting anxiously, suddenly quieted down and turned in unison towards the source of the voice.
At so point, in the center of the command hall, there appeared a person out of thin air in front of the large monitoring screen! This person was dressed in simple modern casual attire, looking to be in their twenties, standing tall, arms crossed, watching the chaotic spiritual energy distribution map on the screen with a casual deanor, as if just watching TV at ho.
There seed to be an indescribable quality about him, making one subconsciously overlook his presence, but upon truly noticing him, an inexplicable sense of awe arose.
A sense of reverence from the heart.
This reverence even led to so unexpected outcos.
The two police officers closest to him reacted swiftly, instinctively drawing their guns and aiming at this unexpected guest, nervously shouting:
“Who are you!”
“Don’t move! Put your hands up!”
Although the person was unard, the two officers instinctively felt a deep sense of fear.
Yet the person didn’t even bother to turn his head; he simply snapped his fingers lightly.
“Pfft…” A barely audible soft sound ensued, and the two officers suddenly felt their guns lighten. Looking down, they were shocked to find the high-strength alloy handguns in their hands had, in an instant, disintegrated into gray-black dust that resembled soil, sifting through their fingers and scattering on the ground!
More guards responded to the sound, raising their weapons and tensely surrounding the mysterious man.
“Everyone, stay calm! Lower your weapons! This is the expert I invited!” An urgent but respectful voice called out, belonging to Captain Li, who had hurried over from the expert eting room—now addressed as the Director of Special Operations.
Within the Supernatural Event Prevention Center, the term “expert” was actually an internal code for players with special in-ga abilities, specifically those who wield supernatural powers like elent manipulation, summoning, and healing—ordinary martial arts masters didn’t qualify for direct participation in core decision-making here.
The officers glanced at Director Wang, who nodded slightly, and they slowly lowered their weapons, though their gazes remained fixed on the young mysterious man.
The surrounding scientists, after a brief shock, couldn’t suppress their excitent and agitation on their faces! They had long heard through internal confidential channels about a real “Immortal” player erging in the ga, and Director Li (forrly Captain Li) had been promoted for establishing a good relationship with this person and providing crucial information.
The “expert” personally invited by Director Li at this mont could only be that Legendary “Immortal,” or to use the center’s more precise terminology—a “Transdinsional Human Entity”! For scientists dedicated to exploring the unknown, nothing could be more thrilling than witnessing and potentially interacting closely with such an entity!
Whispering amongst themselves, their gazes, full of curiosity, reverence, and anticipation, glanced over.
“Mr. Xiao, you’re… you’re finally here.” Director Li said to Xiao Jie, his tone complex and emotional. He couldn’t help but recall their first eting years ago, when Xiao Jie was just an ordinary young man who was good at playing gas, and how within a few short years he had beco soone the nation had to seriously address, potentially affecting the civilization’s survival as an “Immortal.”
“Of course I had to co.” Xiao Jie turned, his gaze calmly sweeping across the room before settling on the large monitoring screen. “However, it seems that even without , you’ve been doing quite well.” He pointed to the screen showing global spiritual energy fluctuations, clearly sothing that couldn’t have been developed in a short ti, indicating the nation had invested considerable resources and effort into researching and preparing for the ga “Old Soil” and the players’ abilities for quite a long ti.
“Hello, Brother Sui Feng!”
“Brother Feng, you ca too?”
“Brother Sui Feng, we’re finally eting offline!”
The “expert” players, who had been arguing before, imdiately found their anchor upon seeing Xiao Jie. They gathered around him, faces showing relief.
Xiao Jie was very familiar with these people in the ga—Jiuxiao Huanpei, Hong Fu Qitian… They were the core players of the Magic System within the Dragon Soaring Guild and its allied guilds; even the Supre Emperor had been urgently summoned. In this incident, being invited as “experts” ant they had no real understanding of what was happening in reality or how to respond; they were simply bracing themselves. Now, seeing the top-tier figure in the ga, the only “Immortal,” appear, they naturally hurried to cling to this crucial support.
Xiao Jie gave them a slight nod, a gesture of acknowledgnt.
“So… Mr. Xiao, what is actually happening?” Director Li asked on behalf of everyone, his tone respectful and seeking guidance. “Is it really like they said, with so ‘root of disaster’ or ‘Land of Withered Spirits’ appearing in reality?” Listening to the experts’ argunts earlier had terrified him, though so far, besides the wilting and decay of certain plants, no more direct disasters had occurred. However, a clear answer was needed for the center to formulate a subsequent response strategy, allowing his anxious heart to find so peace.
