Upon hearing Director Li’s question, all the scientists, staff, and even a few leaders present, all looked over expectantly, waiting for a genuinely authoritative answer.
Xiao Jie shook his head, not answering imdiately. He had thoroughly adjusted his mindset by this mont. He was the only Immortal of this age (at least currently), the highest combat power in the real world facing this kind of supernatural crisis.
This matter, whether he wanted to or not, he had to step up! There’s no point in relying on anyone else; right now, he is the strongest pillar! Precisely for this reason, he must not exhibit any panic, tension, or uncertainty, and must give these people confidence.
He showed a calm expression of controlling everything, and with a clear and steady voice, began his "science dissemination" and arrangents:
"Firstly, everyone can be assured, the real world will not have the ’root of calamity’ as seen in gas. The formation premise of the root of calamity is that the plant itself gains spirit, has conscious awareness and the ability to devour Spiritual Energy, and then is controlled by a transcendental existence to turn into a root of calamity.
Given Earth’s extrely thin Spiritual Energy level at present, it is impossible to naturally nurture such conscious demons, so naturally, the ’root of calamity’ that actively plunders Spiritual Energy will not appear."
He paused, pointing to the big screen: "Secondly, this global abnormal event is indeed similar to the ’Spiritual Energy depletion’ phenonon seen in the ga, understood as a reflection of the sa kind of disaster. It’s just, at present, the manifestations are much milder, at least in the short term will not pose direct or fatal threats to human life or existing social structures."
"Thirdly," his tone beca slightly heavier, "this event of Spiritual Energy disturbance, triggered by unknown reasons, will be persistent and not a one-ti outbreak. Shortly after, it’s very likely other types of abnormal phenona may occur, possibly accompanied by so large-scale supernatural disasters. The plant wilting today is just the beginning, a re harbinger."
"Fourth, and the most crucial point," Xiao Jie’s gaze swept across every tense face present, finally fixing on Director Li and Director Wang, "if we can’t find the root cause and halt it, then eventually, the accumulating effects will cause a disaster large enough to overturn modern civilization and even destroy the world’s ecological system."
Just as everyone’s faces went pale, he shifted his tone, filled with strong confidence: "However, the fifth point, I have already roughly found the root cause of this disaster, and have also found feasible ways to stop it. So, there is no need for everyone to panic excessively, just remain vigilant and monitor. Once I successfully solve that root cause, perhaps those anticipated disasters won’t happen at all."
"Sixth," he looked towards Supre Emperor, Hong Fu Qitian, and other players, "In the upcoming period, I will leave for a while to thoroughly resolve this issue. Emperor Brother, Ah Fu, and the other friends present, during my absence, the real world may likely experience so supernatural disasters, requiring your extra attention. If encountering troubles needing ’extraordinary’ power to deal with, it might require your intervention."
Upon hearing Xiao Jie’s coherent dissemination and arrangents, the people in the command center finally stabilized their mindset, all silently digesting this enormous amount of information.
"Feng, where are you going? How long will you be gone?" Hong Fu Qitian couldn’t help but nervously ask. It’s a rare mont to have a stabilizing force in the real world, but if he leaves, what will happen if sothing big occurs?
Although he can sacrifice life to summon the Divine, the Divine in reality isn’t so easy to deal with as in a ga, and every possession attempts to seize his body, last ti he tried, nearly costing him his life.
It’s left him with psychological shadows.
"Of course, I’m going to the ’new map’." Xiao Jie replied calmly, his tone steady, yet with an undeniable resolve.
Today, Xiao Jie finally decided firmly. Just a few hours earlier, at the mont the reality transformation happened, he clearly realized that this crisis was sothing he couldn’t avoid.
The bigger the ability, the bigger the responsibility, now that "the sky" has fallen upon him, he, the only "tall man" can’t hide, must stand out and hold up the sky.
Since that’s the case, there’s no point in lanting and shrinking back, better to face it calmly and solve the root of the problem proactively!
"Luckily, this ti it’s just a premonition," Xiao Jie already conducted a rough "scan" of the global Spiritual Energy fluctuations by leveraging his Immortal perception on the way to the center, reaching this relatively optimistic conclusion, "maybe because Earth itself is an extrely thin Spiritual Energy ’low-magic’ or even ’non-magic’ world, instead having a certain ’resistance’ to this ’Spiritual Energy depletion’ effect, the rate and extent of impact is far lower than the ga’s Nine States World, giving him plenty of reaction ti."
But he is well aware that if it keeps dragging on, without finding and solving the root cause, Earth’s ager Spiritual Energy will be drained sooner or later, and the subsequent chain reactions sufficient to destroy existing ecosystems and civilization.
He, of course, could also cling to wishful thinking, pin hopes on other Player Immortals from the "Great Thousand Worlds", expecting them to defeat those Spiritual Energy stealing "Demon Lords". However, Xiao Jie’s personality prefers controlling his destiny. Instead of passively waiting for others to decide his and the world’s fate, he opts to fight everything, actively pursuing that narrow chance!
Having figured this out, Xiao Jie’s mindset beca open and clear, with no more confusion. This ti he ca to the command center mainly to arrange post-departure matters, stabilizing the "rear".
After listening to Xiao Jie’s broad perspective yet detailed arrangents, suddenly out of the scientists, a young researcher with glasses stepped forward.
He nervously pushed his glasses, his voice slightly trembling as he asked, "Excuse ... Expert Xiao, hello. May I... consult you on a few ’Spiritual Energy’ questions? This might help us comprehend the current situation better and develop more effective monitoring, or even response strategies."
