The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky. The warm spring sun had arrived late this year, and it was only now that it began to dispel the stubborn cold of winter. Today was such a comfortable day that people just wanted to roll on the carpet, but the world was still operating in an orderly manner.
People went to work, went shopping, chatted, drank tea, hit their children at the door, and slurped noodles at the Lanzhou ramen stall that sold for five yuan a bowl, even though the Lanzhou people themselves could not tell that the ramen had anything to do with Lanzhou. The world was peaceful, and the loudest noise was no loudest than the quarrel between a couple at the staircase over what to eat for dinner. This was the life of ordinary people, and the stability of ordinary people. Without a position above the main hall level, ordinary people would never know what was really happening in the world.
The full-band interference a few days ago … or to use the official explanation, the sunspot explosion, and the aftermath caused by it had almost completely calmed down. The communication interruption that caused many people to panic at the beginning had miraculously recovered 70% to 80% today. The cell phone signal was still not very clear, but at least the quality of the cell phone could make normal calls in the obviously weakened signal. There were still a few channels that were seriously affected by the interference. The spokesperson of the relevant department explained that several key satellite circuit boards had burned down, and there were temporarily no additional channels for these channels to broadcast. People were starting to get used to the sudden interruption in the middle of a phone call. This was at least much better than the first day when they could not even use the landline. What happened a few days ago had become everyone's topic of conversation. People could often be seen sitting at roadside stalls in twos and threes, waiting for the ramen to be served, discussing when they would be able to watch Hunan TV again.
Some experts had analyzed that the most sudden and large-scale communication disaster in human history actually had an advantageous side, and that was, it had successfully promoted the development of the counterfeit mobile phone industry in China. People were surprised to find that the iPhone 4's battery consumption was so appalling when the signal was weak. In extreme cases, it could function like an offline game console for half a day. Many counterfeit mobile phones were unexpectedly swift and fierce. Although they might not necessarily be as good as the quality of the branded phones in the case of a weak signal, at least they could still play on the moon for four to five hours with a loud and clear voice after an hour of phone calls.
This was something that no one had expected.
Compared to the ordinary people, the governments of the world were overwhelmed by this incident. They had to deal with something that humans had never encountered before: the moon, which had been quietly hanging over their heads for hundreds of millions of years, suddenly had an energy storm. A shock wave that did not exist in any energy sample swept across the entire world in an instant. It was not an electromagnetic field, not a high-energy ray, and not a tangible flow of particles. The only thing that could be confirmed was that the energy of the shock wave actually existed. The moment the satellite was incinerated, it sent back an alarm that all the components were overloaded. This made the scientists on Earth panic like never before. Humans had never thought that there would be pure "energy" in the world that had no form of expression, no physical characteristics that could be described, and no carrier. The countless characteristics of this energy that challenged the common sense of physics made the experts even more nervous. Some people had calculated the time recorded by all the surviving energy monitoring devices in the world after the energy storm and found that all the clocks had stopped at the same time.
The shock wave was faster than light, and its speed was infinite. In other words, it spread out in a way that was beyond the concept of space and time in this universe. The trajectory of the shock wave that people could perceive was just a shadow left in the three-dimensional world after it existed in a higher dimension.
Human scientists would never be able to understand the nature of an energy that came one second earlier than the Big Bang. Therefore, this information that could potentially destroy the current scientific system of mankind was completely sealed within an hour after it was sorted out. It was strictly forbidden to leak it and research on it was also strictly forbidden.
They did not even dare to look at this thing again. At least, before humans came into contact with more universal truths, the research on this kind of energy was absolutely forbidden. The best scientists could smell extreme danger from this kind of energy. Intuition told them that with the current understanding of the universe, it would be a disaster to hastily start researching this kind of energy.
It had to be said that the decision made by the scientists and government leaders was simply too wise. Their performance was so outstanding that even Shadora was satisfied. After all, Her Majesty the Queen was very stingy when it came to evaluating the development of another civilization. She would rather go to the Lanzhou Ramen Restaurant 500 meters away than to give a rating to another civilization …
In fact, from the beginning, Sandora had planned to directly contact the governments of various countries to remind humans not to study the energy that erupted from the moon because of greed. Ordinary people might not understand the consequences of this kind of research, but in fact, they would understand after a little explanation.
With the current technological strength of humans, if they started to study psionic energy, they would not be able to achieve anything!
However, the amazing superiority of psionic energy and the specious "theoretical basis" shown in the process of the moon's energy explosion were enough to make many scientists who were not calm enough to think that they could really control this energy. In the end, it would motivate all of humanity to invest their entire lifetime's worth of GDP into studying this bullsh * t.
Then, humans might end up wasting resources and time that they could have used to travel to space in a field that would never yield results. There was also the possibility that an experimental accident would lead to the end of the world. As long as the Xi Ling Apostles did not intervene, there was a 90% chance that the Earth civilization would end up like this.
But if the Shiring Apostles intervened, Earth, a rare origin civilization, would inevitably become a so-called "captive civilization". Perhaps this would allow the people of Earth to rush to the stage of the universe at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, but this would come at the expense of their own development potential. Neither Sandora nor I was willing to waste such a potential "childhood". Of course, I didn't want to do this because I was an Earthling, and Sandora was afraid that this would affect the improvement of the Lanzhou Ramen Restaurant and the Neglected Dog's Buns …
These were all my random thoughts when I was bored. You have to admit that people like me are also people who worry about the world when I'm absent-minded. But what I couldn't understand was why a country's leader who worried about the world like me had to be thrown into such a cold and windy temporary office just to accompany his girlfriend, whose mind was never on the same plane as the real world, to see patients …
Our current location wasn't the living room of our temporary headquarters, but an abandoned factory far away in the suburbs. This place used to be a bone porcelain factory, but all that was left was the factory compound, two warehouses, and a simple two-story steel factory building. Below the factory building was a rather large basement. The second floor was the office area, and the first floor was the workshop. One of the workshops had already been modified into a treatment center filled with advanced equipment. Of course, the equipment on the first floor had also been disguised or modified to make it look as if it was something created by humans on Earth. Otherwise, I couldn't imagine what would happen if Lin Xue's grandfather came here for treatment and suddenly found a holographic projection device labeled with a map of world conquest. What a pain in the ass it would be if Lin Xue's grandfather came here for treatment.
As for why we could so easily find such a vulgar abandoned factory in the suburbs that seemed to respond to plots everywhere in the world, it was actually very simple. During the few years when K City was vigorously industrializing and building a new local economy, a large number of similar simple industrial zones sprang up in the suburbs like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. At that time, the people of this city were full of ambition. They all felt that the only difference between them and Silicon Valley was latitude and longitude, and they believed that sooner or later, they could use the coarse porcelain bowls produced by the local people to destroy Jingdezhen. Of course, there was always a time when their passion cooled down. As the economic structure adjusted, the industrial center moved to a nearby city, and the local environment was really not suitable for this kind of industrial zone, these factories finally cooled down one by one. They turned into a series of dilapidated courtyards that even the demolition office couldn't manage, far away from the city, where the grass grew and the orioles flew.
We all knew that Miss Lin's Special Ability Group was a mysterious organization. Their bases were almost everywhere, including dozens of kilometers underground in the Sahara Desert and a snack stall in Sha County. It was very likely that the Special Ability Group's office was there, so it was very suitable for them to commandeer such an abandoned factory.
Following the principle of 'handling nearby', Lin Xue treated this place as the 'Minority Species Emergency Medical Aid Station' in this area. To put it bluntly, it was a place to treat the abnormal species that were gathered nearby.
At first, the three mid-level members of the ability group were stationed at this aid station. However, just like the others who couldn't even protect themselves due to the continuous radiation, they were also infected. Now, the three of them were lying in a medical cabin in the factory's basement, each of them as blue as an avatar.
The one who was dragged here by Lin Xue and Shallow Shallow to change shifts was me, oh, and Shallow Shallow herself, as well as some other brats who were purely causing trouble.
Of course, there was no need to mention the Boundless Love employees who were busy working in the basement and the second floor of the factory. This abandoned factory looked mottled from the outside, but the inside was just like a bustling research center.
In order to facilitate our work, we prioritized the treatment of many ability group members. Then, these ability group members who recovered their health (to the public, it was actually the opposite, we suppressed the vitality of their cells) would send the abnormal species that they contacted to this factory, either through coercive or non-coercive means.
Now, before us sat a 'abnormal species' that needed help. She looked like a young woman with light makeup, wearing a short trench coat that was suitable for the current season. Her long hair was tied up in a high bun. She could be considered pretty, but that was all. She dressed like an ordinary white-collar worker in the city, just that she had a worried expression on her face.
We had already received a few similar 'clients' today. I discovered that these mysterious people who possessed strange abilities in the imagination of ordinary people actually had their own daily lives. For example, the young woman in front of us was commonly referred to as a 'Nymph'. In other words, she was an animal spirit in Eastern mythology. But in reality, apart from having a long lifespan, she also lived like an ordinary person. She would buy groceries, cook, go to work, go shopping, and every month, she would have her period. This last question was asked by Qian Qian. My Qian Qian always had very strange ideas, and she was very good at using the mysterious advantage she had at hand to put her ideas into practice. For example, she used the excuse of a physical examination to ask a female Nymph about her menstrual cycle …
A real Seductress wouldn't live the life of a man who only thought about how to conquer the world and fight against all humans at the same time. A real Exorcist wouldn't only think about saving the world and fighting against Seductresses. They also needed to eat and sleep, and Seductresses also had their periods. Exorcists would also remember to lock their electric scooters before they were brought here. There was an electric scooter parked outside the courtyard. It was left behind by the Exorcist who came before this Seductress. Right now, its owner was receiving electric shock treatment on the first floor, and Orange Meow was squatting next to the electric scooter, trying to pull the wheels off.
"Your symptoms are rather mild. It seems that your ancient genes aren't that rich," Shallow Shallow said to the Fairy as she wrote her name crookedly on a form on the table. "From an expert's perspective, I think that you should be an Eagle Demon 700,000 years ago …"
"Eagle?" The young woman who was dressed like an ordinary white-collared worker was surprised. "I don't know. Our family does have an ancestral plate that was given to us by the Emperor, but there's a sparrow drawn on it … Am I really a Fairy?"
"From an expert's perspective, that's indeed the case." Shallow Shallow replied professionally. She was still in high spirits after playing for the entire morning. "You've never felt that there's anything special about your home?"
"On average, they can live up to a hundred years old. When I was young, I always dreamed that I could fly," the Fairy answered honestly.
"Then, did anything change after you saw the moon a few days ago?"
I knew that Shallow Shallow's questions had nothing to do with treatment. She was just curious. No matter how many new things this girl had come into contact with in the macro world, her activity level had always remained high. She would always explore anything that she had never seen before.
The Fairy had a troubled expression on her face. She seemed to have recalled something disgusting. She frowned. "My myopia suddenly disappeared. I can see the chewing gum on the window of the opposite building from 500 meters away. My back feels itchy as if something is about to grow. I get angry when I see the moon. I clench my teeth in anger. Then … I get hungry when I see bugs."
"Hungry!!"
Just as the Fairy finished her sentence, the voice of a little girl echoed from under the spacious office table. Then, a little girl draped in loose pajamas crawled out from the cubicle below. She wore a fluffy white lace bonnet on her head. Her long blonde hair drooped down from the bonnet. She blinked her blood-red eyes and looked at the Fairy curiously. "Want to play together?"
I jumped up and pushed the Fairy who had activated her ancient insect-eating genes towards the door. "Go downstairs to the left entrance of the treatment center and walk 20 meters to the right. Turn right at the third door and look for Doctor Li to apply for the fourth treatment plan. Bring the form and follow the instructions given by the staff. Do the treatment today and go back to work tomorrow. Don't ask any questions.
You're welcome to come again! "The Fairy was bombarded by dozens of words in one breath. She clung to the door frame and nodded blankly. Then, she turned and walked to the stairs. On the way, she lowered her head to pick up something and stuffed it into her mouth. Hopefully, she would still be able to eat tomorrow's breakfast after the treatment. There was no need to think about dinner tonight. Other than Bear Grylls and Sandora, no one else had such a good appetite.
I sighed after I sent the Fairy away. I took out a bag of blood and a straw from my dimensional pocket. I gave them to the little girl who was crawling on the floor looking for ants. "Fran, stop fooling around. This is work."
"It's boring. Where's Little Bubble? Fran and Little Bubble went out to play … This is delicious! "
I covered my face and sighed again.
Fran's appearance here was completely unexpected. However, I couldn't ignore her. This little girl's older sister, the 500-year-old vampire loli, had already irresponsibly gone to another corner of the world. She was currently immersed in a large local blood bank. However, Fran, this unstable and destructive maniac, was obviously not suitable for such a long journey. She still needed to rely on the vine amulet around her neck to suppress her spirit. This amulet was often thrown around by the ignorant little Fran. Thus, Reemilia, who completely didn't know what responsibility and obligation was, threw the inexperienced little sister to me. At least, I didn't have to worry about no one suppressing the little girl when she went berserk.
The amulet around Fran's neck was a second generation vine amulet modified by Liliana. This amulet's suppression effect was slightly better than the original one. After wearing it for a period of time, it could even restore Fran's spirit on a spiritual level. However, this amulet had a huge flaw. The suppression effect was too shocking. It suppressed the user's intelligence as well …
At last Frandolu found the ant she had been looking for. She happily showed it to me, and then put it in her mouth.
I hurriedly pulled the ignorant little girl to rinse her mouth. Shallow Shallow shook her chair behind us and muttered, "What? I thought the situation was serious. In the end, only five or six people came in a day and none of them caused any trouble. How leisurely."
I stopped Fran from eating the toothpaste as I laughed, "Nonsense. There are a million victims in the world. How many do you think there are in one place? And the troublemakers … The troublemakers have already lost their ability to cause trouble. Lin Xue is really a decisive person. "
"Ah Jun, when do you think this matter will be completely settled?" Shallow Shallow floated over and hugged my neck from behind. She sniffed around my neck like a puppy. "We have secretly helped to fix the satellite. We have also connected all the optical cables. The people who need treatment don't look that serious. We just need to give them the corresponding frequency of the Mind Disruptor or the Energy Suppression Ring and they will be fine. It's so boring."
I turned my head and kissed her earlobe, "You always think about the world being in chaos. Isn't it better to solve the problem peacefully?"
Shallow Shallow grunted in displeasure. She began to rub against my body like a kitten. It was a sign that she was about to get bored. Seeing her acting cute, I knew that Lin Xue must have found someone else to replace her.
Just as I was thinking about that, I suddenly heard Sandora's call through the mental link.
"Ah Jun! Crash! It's here again! "
