Capítulo 905: Chapter 762: Troubling Love
Binuosos Hall, dozens of polymaths surrounded the sculpted round table, listening to the latest intelligence read out by a young lady assistant sitting beside the president.
Joey Cleveland, the failed star-chaser president, was fully engrossed in tackling the plate of “Golden Wire Maggot,” making slurping sounds and causing juices to splatter.
She was wholly focused, reciting the summarized intelligence from the docunt in her hand.
Throughout this period, mysterious events involving over a thousand people have been occurring all over the Federation.
“Lonely Star State, starting three days ago, centered around the state capital Trafford, radiating outwards in a circular area, a total of over two thousand people received a ‘mysterious package,’ containing a curio and an instruction manual. This curio is an enigma glass box whose inside cannot be seen.”
“The instruction manual indicates that the glass box contains nurous chanisms. Each ti one reaches inside, there is a fifty percent chance of triggering so chanism, and the other half chance allows obtaining a gold brick weighing three kilograms from the box.”
“On the first day, the event led to hundreds losing their palms as they triggered the amputation chanism.”
“On the second day, the number of casualties continued to rise. Greed caused so of the lucky ones who survived the first round to fall in the second round, triggering chanisms that involved unknown snake venom, which acted within seconds and resulted in death.”
“On the third day, the Investigation Bureau intervened and contained all curios, but before that, hundreds had triggered new chanisms: an implantable bomb causing extensive collateral damage, resulting in the deaths of several agents.”
“This curio has been temporarily nad ‘Devil’s Temptation,’ judged to originate from so Exotic Realm Evil God, and is recomnded to be listed as a warning case in the ‘Mysterious Side Survival Guide.'”
…
“Yellow Crystal State, on January 4th, a malicious event occurred in the capital Boyi City, where a total of three hundred people were polluted in their sleep. They were implanted with almost unchangeable commands ‘Humans must be exterminated,’ their common characteristic being male youth over twenty years old.”
“After waking up, they gathered like robots at Crystal Square, preparing to launch a human cleansing operation half an hour later.”
“This event was predicted and intervened by the Ancient Mystical Vault organization, causing short-term chaos but no casualties. The commands within the involved individuals’ brains are being cleared.”
“The Ancient Mystical Vault headquarters confird that the pollution source is suspected to be one of the All Spirits Above Mystery, the ‘Faceless God.’ This Evil God has been spreading faith on the Origin Star during the Dark Era, and its followers have established multiple organizations, the strongest of which is the ‘Thousand Faces Church.'”
…
“Donkey Island State, on January 5th, a laboratory radiation leak event occurred in the capital Donkey City. The radiation source was a kind of radioactive crystal, small in size, initially forming a ‘Crystal Storm,’ causing masdonation in Donkey City’s residents.”
“This event was sudden, finally resolved by the joint efforts of the Church and the World Tree, with senior researcher Amilia providing enormous assistance in the process.”
“Investigations revealed that the perpetrator of this event, Dr. Ed, had long been parasitized by an Exotic Realm Demon. It had initially hoped to open a passage to the Demon Universe using the ‘Crystal Storm,’ but the action failed due to Amilia’s intervention.”
“This event affected tens of thousands, with the Church deploying Legendary Level strong individual Saint Sister Teresa to purify the pollution and calm the mutated residents. The World Tree sent a team specializing in mory alteration to finally eliminate all repercussions.”
…
“Nami State, Barbara City, occurred ‘Functional Drink Induced Exotic Event’ on January 4th.”
“Prequel, months ago, the Redcardo Group specializing in functional drink production signed a production contract with the state’s official to establish a branch base in the suburbs of Barbara City.”
“To please the city’s residents, Redcardo Group specially issued free distribution of tens of thousands of bottles of its most popular product ‘Fla Bull’ from the first production line to the citizens, but among those who received the drink, about one-tenth exhibited varying degree of mutation reactions.”
“Specifically manifested in muscle expansion, excessive excitent, a sudden increase in basic attributes such as strength and speed several tis, and filled with destructive desire, causing nurous concentrated violent incidents.”
“The Holy Eagle Nest Society dispatched the Sword Holder Team at the fastest speed to deal with the mutations, destroy pollutants, and announce that Barbara City entered a state of ergency.”
“That night, initial investigation revealed that the event was triggered by blood pollution from Exotic Realm Demons secretly cultivated by the Redcardo Group. The Redcardo Group denied the Eagle’s Nest Society’s initial report and attempted to escape the Federation holand with the Demons but was killed by the Sword Holder Team.”
“Yesterday, the Federation officials listed the Redcardo Group in the ‘Chaotic Evil Organization List,’ and placed the group’s president Bruce Spencer on the wanted list.”
…
Within the hall, Ms. Ivanka’s voice continuously resounded as she recited one shocking malicious mysterious event after another.
She paused for two seconds before preparing to continue the report.
Finally, having finished his breakfast and lunch, President Joey wiped the corner of his mouth, burped, and knocked on the sculpted round table. After attracting the crowd’s attention, he directly addressed the the, “Gentlen, these kinds of malicious mysterious events are surging.”
“Clearly, including our Divine Eagle Federation, the other nations within the Origin Star have beco unable to maintain surface peace.”
“Even though organizations like the Bright Church, Ancient Mystical Vault, and World Tree are providing assistance, this ultimately cannot stop the arrival of the New Era.”
“We must return to the kind of situation of the Dark Era, not that kind of tragic loss, but where the Extraordinary World and the real world integrate, a ti when even ordinary people, with sufficient knowledge of Mysticism, can provide so assistance.”
“anwhile, after the Big Explosion, the billions of human residents will also provide an incalculable reserve of Transcendents.”
“With them, our Origin Star will have enough power to tell those damned invaders… the era has changed, we humans are the sole Sovereign of this beautiful planet.”
“Boom!”
As he spoke the last sentence, Joey Cleveland suddenly rose, slamming his hand on the stone table, his majestic aura unleashed.
It must be said, if the Federation citizens saw his speech, they would undoubtedly be thrilled.
Unfortunately, there aren’t any ordinary citizens here.
The scholars paid no heed to his incitent, but instead focused on expressing their views on the nurous malignant events announced earlier by the presidential assistant.
Quickly, they entered into the daily debate over the specific date for the “presidential speech.”
As for President Joey himself, he was utterly ignored.
Even his assistant lady didn’t pay attention to her boss’s speech but secretly inquired Tang Qi about Jason’s situation.
Though rather unbelievable, this young Transcendent from a wealthy Federation family is indeed a fan of Jason, the newly crowned East Federation supernova, bearing the title “Strongest Demon Hunter.”
To be precise, she’s his admirer.
Long ago, the two had a brief encounter during a Demon-related incident in which Jason saved her life.
But since then, Jason returned to the Tilos Secret Realm, and despite her nurous efforts, she couldn’t see him again.
As everyone knows, Jason, this supernova, has two extrely powerful friends.
One is the Lord of Thorns, the other is Tang Qi.
Rafael, this Dominator-level God, is naturally beyond her reach, despite the considerable power of her backing family.
Now finally having the chance to et Tang Qi, she wouldn’t miss this opportunity.
Born into a large family, this woman of strong character has always had her own opinions, rejecting family marriage in her girlhood, believing she could control her own love.
Jason is her chosen and sole lover.
Facing Ms. Ivanka’s eyes brimming with admiration for Jason, Tang Qi didn’t hesitate to reveal the truth: “He’s preparing to have a second child with his wife, should be successful soon.”
As soon as the words fell, Tang Qi indeed saw Ms. Ivanka first stupefied, then showing intense sorrow.
“I’m doing a good deed, sparing a good young person from taking the wrong path, falling in love with soone unsuitable.”
“The sorrow is temporary, ti will heal everything, yes, that’s it.”
“Indeed, love is always the most troubleso.”
As Tang Qi muttered in his heart, he suddenly felt sothing, tilting his head, and t Rose Madeline’s gaze.
Behind her glasses, Rose playfully winked, indicating she saw through Tang Qi’s thoughts, expressing approval.
Tang Qi returned a similar smile, these two mischievous scholars perfectly exemplifying what “kindred spirits” ans.
At that sa mont, the debate in the study hall reached its critical point.
Finally, President Joey, whose neck beca red from arguing with the scholars, exercised his privilege.
Standing before the stone table etched with countless human hero reliefs, he solemnly declared:
“On January 10th, I will deliver a television speech to all Federation citizens.”
“Inform the Alliance, Eternal Heaven Dynasty, and other nations of all plans and processes quickly. We need a joint action without dissent.”
“Gentlen, your work will help the Federation enter a new era. Allow to express gratitude on behalf of the Federation.”
…
As the eting adjourned, Ms. Ivanka, red-eyed and about to leave the study hall, handed Tang Qi several items with varying styles but all exuding the aura of Curios, including cards and invitations, saying: “Master Tang, these are from so organizations or individuals who hope the official will forward them to you.”
“We’ve verified they’re not dangerous.”
While pondering how to handle a beautiful woman crying, Tang Qi accepted the few Curios.
Upon touching the first one, he couldn’t resist raising his eyebrows.
The item directly touched by his palm at the bottom layer was a sealed invitation, which contained sothing that, if his tactile sense wasn’t mistaken, should be… a bullet?
ps: Ready to enter the next round of major events. Regarding updates, Fat Fish will strive (won’t raise flag again, telling a good story is what matters).
