Ten hours had passed since the disappearance of the Burj Pagoda. The Burj Sheikh was still dealing with the inquiries from the various departments.
How to respond to the media and the public was a big problem. He needed to set the tone.
However, this tone involved many aspects. It was not something he could decide on.
The five host countries had an emergency meeting with the other countries. They had to come up with a plan.
Just as no one could make a decision, Mandan barged into the meeting room and spoke to the Burj Sheikh.
"Father, the missing people have been found …"
"What!"
The Burj Sheikh was shocked. He was in the middle of a video conference. All the members of the Global Council heard it.
"Missing people? Are they the missing people in the Burj Pagoda? "
"There are at least 30,000 people, right? Where did they find them? "
"Are they still alive?"
The stalemate was broken. When the Burj Pagoda disappeared, the people who had personally experienced it had been found. There was no need for them to lie.
They had to take control of the missing people and find out the truth. Then, they could think of a way to respond to the society.
"What happened? Tell me! "The Burj Sheikh asked anxiously.
Mandan immediately said, "Just now, when a transport team came to Burj Pagoda, they found tens of thousands of people lying in the desert outside the city …"
He quickly explained that the 30,000 people had been found. Many of them had lost their minds, and over 2,000 of them had died.
However, what was worth being happy about was that the 30,000 people were still alive. Other than dehydration and malnutrition, there were no other problems.
"Our people have already rushed to the scene to take control of the situation. However, before we arrived, the English reporters had already arrived," Mandan said.
"What? The reporters arrived first? "Everyone was shocked.
Mandan quickly said, "Don't worry. I've also taken control of them. For now, they haven't made the situation public."
"That's good. Then, what did you find out? What did the people in the Burj Pagoda experience? "
Mandan said, "After the pillar of light descended, they were still in the Burj Pagoda. However, the outside world was completely sealed off by an unknown substance. At the same time, gravity disappeared. Everything in the building was in a state of weightlessness. "
In the Global Council's video conference, many countries' representatives had scientific advisors next to them.
Immediately, an American scientist said, "The Burj Pagoda left Earth in an instant? He might have even left the gravitational field of the solar system and is in a completely unknown area. "
Man Dan nodded and said, "That's right. In short, there are no external sources of light in that space. The only space we can move around in is inside the Burj Khalifa. The outside of the building is surrounded by an indestructible super smooth barrier. Because many tourists are trapped, they took a lot of videos during the first two days. I can send them to you for research now. "
The scientists said excitedly, "It's good to have a video! This is clearer than any description. "
"Wait a moment … You said two days? Haven't they only been missing for ten hours? "The scientist immediately realized that something was wrong.
Mandan said, "That's where the problem lies. All the survivors stayed in that space for more than ten days. As for the exact number of days, everyone had different opinions. It's because everyone lost their minds and stayed in the dark for a long time. Their phones and other things ran out of battery, so their sense of time wasn't accurate. Some people even said that they stayed for a year … In short, the most trustworthy number is around 13 days. "
"When the power of some electronic products was completely exhausted, the insides were dark, and food, water, and even oxygen were in short supply, and the cruel internal strife began …"
There were quite a lot of resources in the Burj Khalifa. With the minimum survival guarantee, it was enough to feed 30,000 people for two months.
Of the 2,000 corpses, none of them died of hunger or thirst. They were all murdered.
After hearing Man Dan's detailed description, the various countries knew how to respond to the public.
"The testimony of 30,000 people can't be covered up. Why don't we just let the media expose it, and we can just guide the direction of speculation?"
"For example, an alternate dimension close to Earth … Although science can't prove its existence, we can only use this kind of unproven explanation to maintain order."
"I can already imagine the global media going crazy. Who knows how many works of art based on this incident will appear."
"As for how to explain this dimension, we'll have to rely on the scholars of the various countries."
"In short, we'll set the tone. First, it's natural. Second, this dimension just passed by Earth unintentionally. It's not a 'group' or 'individual' that was maliciously placed there. Third, it might come to Earth again, but this won't happen often. Every country will try their best to prevent it from happening again. "
…
Bai Ge blended in with the crowd and pretended to be a missing person. He disguised himself as a local and was deliberately taken away by the United Arab Emirates Detention Bureau.
More than 30,000 people, including some reporters, were taken to a military base.
The official statement was that everyone had to go through a physical examination and anti-epidemic measures. They also had to cooperate with a large number of investigation questions before they could be released.
This was not a detention, but a major incident that involved the deaths of more than 2,000 people. It was necessary to force everyone to cooperate with the investigation.
More than 30,000 people couldn't be questioned at the same time. They were divided into hundreds of groups and placed separately.
"Hey, I'm William, a reporter from The Times of England. What did you experience in that dimension? Can you briefly tell me?" a reporter asked Bai Ge.
Along the way, Bai Ge had seen him go around interviewing the missing persons. He had already interviewed more than one hundred people, and he had basically understood the situation. The only reason he was still asking Bai Ge was because he hoped to get more exclusive information.
Bai Ge's face was stiff and he didn't answer.
Reporter William said with a look of understanding, "Poor guy, it seems like you didn't have a good time in there … Well, did you kill someone?"
Bai Ge ignored him and turned to look at a group of people not far away. The leader was the Sheikh of Dubai.
He walked closer, and William followed him, chattering nonstop beside his ear.
"Actually, you don't have to avoid it. I interviewed more than 100 people. Twelve of them killed people, and more than 90 wanted to kill people! No one could stand staying in that godforsaken place for 13 days. This is the most shocking news I've ever interviewed. I even thought of the title! It's called the Extradimensional Killing Array of 30,000 people!
"Hey, do you think it's an alien experiment? They used humans as guinea pigs and locked people and buildings in an enclosed space. Then, they watched the humans' reactions. In the end, the humans' reactions disappointed the aliens, right? They directly killed each other. To be honest, I can't help but write a script! The aliens were frightened by the brutality of humans and fled Earth. "
William kept talking in his ear. Bai Ge wished he could punch him to death.
"You'll lose money with this script! If the aliens discover the brutality of humans, they won't run away. Instead, they'll destroy humans, "Bai Ge couldn't help but say.
William saw that Bai Ge was ignoring him and hurriedly said, "I know, but it doesn't matter if the plot is good or not. The problem is the selling point! Do you know? Just this incident alone can feed countless people! Believe me, no matter how trashy the script is, there will be countless viewers who are interested in this incident! It'll definitely sell! "
Bai Ge waved his hand and moved closer to the Sheikh. Then, he said, "Got it. Don't follow me."
William asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
"Bam!" Bai Ge quickly pressed on the back of William's neck where the nerves were concentrated. It was just a light tap of a finger, and he immediately retracted his hand.
William's eyes rolled back as if he had been hit hard. His body went limp.
Holding William with one hand, Bai Ge said in his heart, "Ling Dang, tell him to scram as far away as possible."
Ling Dang received the order and directly used the spiritual substance to attach to William's body. He controlled the unconscious William's body and walked away.
Like a marionette, William walked away with strange steps with his eyes closed.
After sending this annoying guy away, Bai Ge strode toward the Sheikh.
The Sheikh didn't know Bai Ge. When he saw Bai Ge walking over, a few burly men immediately stopped Bai Ge.
Bai Ge smiled and said, "I think you need to interrogate me personally. Aren't you curious how these 30,000 people returned to Earth?"
The Sheikh was about to chase Bai Ge away, but when he heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked, "You know?"
Bai Ge nodded and said, "Yes …"
"Take him away."
Seeing that he didn't continue, the Sheikh took the initiative to take Bai Ge into the car in order to keep it a secret.
In a long luxury car, the bodyguards checked Bai Ge's body and didn't find any weapons, so they let the Sheikh approach him.
Bai Ge was sandwiched by two people and smiled as he looked at the Sheikh sitting opposite him.
The Sheikh said, "In order to prevent the reporters from spreading the news, tell me first."
Bai Ge was waiting for this moment. He began to transfer the memories without saying a word.
About ten minutes later, the Sheikh said respectfully, "President, Centurion Li Yang of the Apostle Legion."
A man from the Middle East suddenly spoke Mandarin and even had a Chinese name. It was quite out of place.
However, not only that, the bodyguards next to him all became surpassers of the Blue White Society and spoke Chinese.
Bai Ge smiled and said, "What is your anomaly?"
Li Yang put his hand into his ear and took out a needle.
Bai Ge was stunned and said, "Sea Calming Treasure Iron?"
Li Yang shook his head and said, "No, this is a Shared Eye. Its function is simple, it can share the vision of any creature. The prerequisite for sharing is to know the target's true name and common appearance. "
"However, there is one thing to note, you can't share vision with it more than three times, otherwise, you will become blind. In theory, the Sheikh of Dubai can use this anomaly to blind the leaders of all countries. This can also be considered a deterrent weapon, but the Sheikh of Dubai didn't do that. He restrained himself by using it to obtain some information, but he can't share it more than three times with the same person. No, he can't even share it more than twice. "
Bai Ge smiled and said, "This Sheikh is quite a nice guy."
Li Yang shook his head and said, "No, no, no, it's because once a target is blinded, the user will also become blind. Of course, blindness doesn't affect the use of this anomaly. Even a blind person can use this needle to see light in other people's vision. "
Bai Ge received the needle and inserted it into the hole in his brain.
Ling Dang said, "That is indeed the case, but the most powerful thing about it isn't blindness or vision, but its ability to adapt to all strange visual sensory experiences."
"Sensory experiences?" Bai Ge was surprised.
Ling Dang said, "Among the characteristics of this needle, the user will definitely adapt to the vision of the person being shared. Even if the shared vision is that of an ant, that strange two-dimensional world of pheromones can still be forcefully understood in a way that humans can understand in a shared state."
"In other words, there is no such thing as being unable to understand after sharing vision. If you share the vision of a high-dimensional creature, then you will forcefully adapt to the indescribable high-dimensional vision with a three-dimensional human brain. "
"The visual difference will be forcefully erased."
