"It can spread?"
"Then that's manageable."
Upon hearing this information, Su Qi and Pei Jing's previously grave expressions relaxed.
Last night, they had dealt with many of these incorporeal, mysterious powers lurking in the shadows, influencing humans.
For instance, there was the mysterious power that sought to destroy objects found in dream altars in the real world. Through one of the affected civilians, they located the item on the dream altar and stood guard beside it.
When the mysterious power invaded the real world, they used their abundant spiritual power to locate its position, tracing it and dismantling it.
Therefore.
Upon learning that the eerie smile could spread autonomously, Su Qi imdiately thought of a solution.
Actively accept the contamination.
The mont the mysterious power infiltrated the real world, it could be captured!
"Will it be a newly born eerie creature or the original source of the eerie power?" Although Su Qi couldn't be sure, he realized that this would be the final counterattack from the eerie source.
If they successfully resisted, the great migration of the Fourteenth District could proceed smoothly.
Soon.
Su Qi and Pei Jing arrived at a large plaza, where a massive crowd of people, affected by the mysterious power and unable to control their expressions, had gathered.
The number was simply overwhelming.
Attempting to gather them all together was sowhat unrealistic.
However, now that a solution was in sight, there was no need to continue such actions.
Upon arriving here, everywhere they looked were dense, eerie, and stiff smiles. Everyone dared not breathe, fearfully observing others sharing the sa smile, as if awaiting final judgnt.
Their eyes were filled with regret; if they had known even dreaming would be influenced by this mysterious power, they would have rather died than slept last night.
A night of missed sleep wouldn't kill, but being affected by the mysterious power was a step into the gates of hell.
Because.
They all knew.
Being influenced by the mysterious power was essentially the sa as being eroded; it was just a different stage.
According to past examples, so mysterious powers first affect humans, much like marking their prey, and then unknowingly erode them.
"Originally, these affected people mixed among the crowd, and I didn't feel much anomaly. Now that they are gathered here, even the air is filled with an ominous scent." After Pei Jing glanced around, he followed Su Qi and walked slowly into the plaza.
At this mont.
Those affected by the mysterious power, upon seeing Pei Jing and Su Qi approaching, were so moved they almost shed tears, as if they saw the Savior.
"Please make way."
"Lord Pei and Lord Su... have co to save us!"
The combination of their excited eyes and stiff smiles appeared quite eerie.
Su Qi and Pei Jing's spiritual power spread out, sensing each person in the entire plaza. At the sa ti, the corners of their mouths curled slightly, revealing smiles similar to those on the faces of the others.
This wasn't because they were polluted, but because they chose to make this expression deliberately.
During the investigation, they found that ordinary people who hadn't dread but were affected did so after interacting with these people and then smiling at so point, thus becoming infected. Therefore, they wanted to use this thod to uncover the roots of the mysterious power.
anwhile.
In the monitoring room, several staff mbers, upon seeing Lords Pei Jing and Su Qi also sporting those eerie smiles, couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
"Look at Lord Pei and Lord Su's faces..."
"Should we remind them?"
"If even they are affected by the mysterious power, the consequences would be unimaginable!"
So only saw the surface and didn't understand Su Qi and Pei Jing's intentions, inevitably leading to anxiety, fearing that the two might unknowingly be influenced.
In response, Xia Shengxuan, standing in front of the monitor, perceived Brother Pei and Su Qi's intentions and slowly explained, "No need to worry."
"The two are actively approaching the mysterious."
"In fighting fierce beasts, Transcendents can clearly discern allies and enemies, make precise judgnts, and continually accumulate experience."
"But battling the mysterious is completely different. The greatest concern is the unknown, the unknown in attack thods, in power levels, and even in the whereabouts of the enemy..."
"Every eerie creature confronted is a brand new enemy; experience is useless, and errors must be trialed again and again, with considerable risk!"
These words imdiately resonated with many Transcendents present.
Indeed.
Before, when they faced the mysterious, they felt an overwhelming sense of powerlessness, the constant fear of sudden death, which could drive soone mad. Solving an eerie creature easily one mont, only to be instantly killed by another the next.
The invisible disparity and the resulting terror are simply suffocating!
Thus, they grew more and more admiring of Lords Pei Jing and Su Qi, taking risks. Although it might seem trivial to outsiders, they knew just how confident these two had to be in their power to remain so calm.
In their place, they would likely send so Transcendents to scout first, observing carefully from behind before deciding to act.
After all, as the only two Destruction-level Transcendents in the entire city, they had the right and absolute power to command other Transcendents to clear the way!
Ti ticked by.
Su Qi and Pei Jing continued with stiff smiles, walking through the crowd in the plaza.
Just as they wondered if the thod was incorrect.
Suddenly.
A sudden change occurred.
A weak voice erged from within the dense crowd.
"Are you... trying to stop the hope of all beings from descending?"
Imdiately.
Su Qi and Pei Jing's expressions tightened, and after quickly scanning around, they were taken aback. Despite their Destruction-level perception, they couldn't pinpoint the source of the voice!
Was it the mysterious speaking...
If it could speak, that ant there might be a possibility of communication!
If communication was possible, it ant they could uncover more secrets of the mysterious!
Their expressions instantly beca extrely tense, and they held their breath. Their spiritual power exploded fully, perating the space of the entire plaza inch by inch.
Soon.
They noticed that the surrounding crowd did not seem to have heard the voice, which ant it was likely communication on a spiritual level.
So, Su Qi emitted a spiritual thought.
"Who are you?"
The atmosphere fell into silence for a mont.
Soon after, another sigh ca: "I am what you call 'the mysterious,' the bearer of all their 'hope.'"
