"We can't find the root server of this website … It doesn't seem to exist on the internet … This is beyond our understanding of technology. We can't trace the visitors of this website, not even an IP address. Furthermore, we can't block any information related to it, all our attempts have failed … It's like the global internet has been infected by a virus, the virus is controlling how it operates … "
This result made the headquarters' command center fall silent.
They had gathered the best researchers from the Scientific Research Department, FBM, the Russian Security Bureau, and other international personnel, as well as some experts from private companies. This team was more powerful than any hacker, they had the best IT technology in the world.
However, they found nothing.
Without logging into the website, they conducted all kinds of analysis and tracking work, but it was as if they were researching a website that didn't exist.
Not being able to access the visitor records brought about another problem. The Investigation Department and Action Department could not summon, register, investigate, and quarantine all the visitors who had logged into the website. They could only identify the visitors who had exposed their login behavior elsewhere.
However, using this method, there were bound to be people who slipped through the net, and there were bound to be many of them.
What kind of people were in there? What kind of changes had they undergone?
The website would change people, Phecda was certain of that.
What was certain was that the website was spreading like wildfire all over the world. With the popularity and coverage of the Internet, this nameless website had uncontrollably drawn in tens of millions of people overnight.
Phecda did not have time to do anything, and it was difficult for him to do anything that would have an immediate effect.
They could log on without the internet. Even if the internet was cut off to prevent the spread of news, there were still other forms of communication such as phone calls and word of mouth.
If he stood up and told people not to log on to the website, it would be equivalent to pushing people who were temporarily unaware of the truth to the website.
The visitors displayed a certain fanaticism when it came to spreading the news. They kept telling people they knew about the website, tempting them to log on to take a look.
The slogan of the website was highly attractive to the general public. Furthermore, they could log on even if the internet was cut off. This piqued the curiosity of those who understood how illogical and impossible this was. Many people were willing to give it a try, they could not wait to explore the secret behind the website.
Phecda first found out about this from the Phecda hotline. Many of the informants were strongly recommended by their friends. They resisted the temptation and called the hotline when they realized something was wrong. This kind of scattered information with the same content soon attracted the attention of the hotline.
The staff at the hotline sensed that this website might contain something that could corrupt one's mind, so they did not open it but reported it to the headquarters.
After the headquarters and the Spell Department intervened, they quickly made a decision. This website was not to be accessed casually, it could bewitch people.
The exact time of the website's first appearance was unknown but according to the timings, the time was coinciding with the arrival of the Black Pharaoh at the Spell Experiment.
The informants were all apprehended. Based on the clues provided by them, the investigators managed to find their friends who were the first batch of propagators.
These people told the investigators that they found out about the website very suddenly. It was when they were surfing the internet and opened a new web page. It was an ordinary social networking site that they usually went to, but what popped up was this "Enlightenment" website …
The mental state of this group of people had a similar change.
Be it male or female, university or high school students, white-collar workers who had worked in the real world for many years, or the elderly, they showed some kind of fanaticism, fear and confusion.
On one hand, they showed some kind of fanaticism, fear and confusion but on the other hand, they believed that they had come into contact with the ultimate secret and the truth of the universe. During the interrogation, they kept trying to convince the investigators to check out the website.
"Go take a look, you'll understand once you do." That was what they all said. "If you haven't seen it, you won't understand what I'm talking about."
Phecda still had no idea what this meant. Was this a mental epidemic? To what extent would it change the people?
The doctors from the Spell Department believed it was a psychological change similar to post-traumatic stress disorder. According to the visitors, they all showed symptoms of re-experiencing. The strange images displayed on the website kept replaying in their minds.
The command central was shrouded in a dark cloud.
While they paid attention to the situation on the website, they were also tracking the mysterious Black Pharaoh.
Last night at 19: 17, the Black Pharaoh first appeared out of nowhere. It left the experiment site and walked all the way to Da Hwa City. It did not seem to be tired, it did not hurry nor did it stop. The Secret Service members could only follow it and clear the area ahead of time to evacuate the citizens. Other than that, there was nothing else they could do.
After the Black Pharaoh arrived at the city, it drove a large truck by the roadside. Then it went to some shops that sold glass, metal and other materials.
From midnight until noon the next day, it had taken a lot of materials and equipment from many shops and markets and moved them all to the truck. It then drove the truck to the busiest and busiest CBD area of Da Hua City. The area was now quiet after the evacuation.
After the truck stopped, it did not move anymore. It was obvious that the Black Pharaoh was moving around in the back of the truck that was covered by the green canvas. There was a series of clanking noises, it appeared to be fiddling with the materials.
"Reporting to central, the target is suspected to be manufacturing something."
The Secret Service leader Yang Youyuan reported in a low voice. They were at different positions about 100 meters away from the truck and they closely observed the activity on the truck.
But the nylon canvas was tightly covered, there was only a small gap.
They could vaguely see flashes of light inside the back of the truck. There were sparks and the smell of gunpowder …
"The target is suspected to be manufacturing some kind of weapon." The more Yang Youyuan smelled the pungent smell of gunpowder in the air, the more he felt like there was a fishbone stuck in his throat. There was an inexplicable nervousness in his heart. "I feel like … it is an extremely dangerous weapon. Even though I do not understand why the Black Pharaoh would want to manufacture a weapon but that is what I feel … we need to stop it as soon as possible or there will be serious consequences … "
