Niu Jieshi and Wang Dayong exchanged a glance, both showing a look of helplessness on their faces.
Candidly stating that the enemy they face this time is not ordinary.
Even for them, the strongest among the supernatural forces, they felt unprecedentedly powerless in the face of that unknown force.
"Jiang Xiao, you know, while our powers are mysterious and unfathomable, they are not all-powerful. This sudden situation is really tricky."
Wang Dayong sighed, his voice carrying a hint of heaviness.
"Have you tried using the rules from Kaidan to limit that force?"
Jiang Xiao suddenly got interested, as his imagination has always been quite vast.
Niu Jieshi was taken aback by the words, then showed a bitter smile, as if he heard something utterly preposterous.
"Jiang Xiao, your idea is too naive. While our rules are beyond understanding and resistance for ordinary people, that's because their powers are far inferior to ours."
"That unknown force... its level may have already surpassed our understanding."
Use rules to limit this power?
What was Jiang Xiao thinking?
Wang Dayong thought to himself that if Jiang Xiao hadn't eaten two pounds of pig feed, he wouldn't be saying such nonsense.
If their rules could restrict this power, would they still need to collaborate with humans?
Directly make this power a part of the rules, and it would definitely become a deadly rule upon touch!
Just as the three of them were deeply engrossed in their conversation, another familiar face caught Jiang Xiao's eye.
b2?
Yes, it was Du Lala's colleague, who once had a brief interaction with Jiang Xiao.
b2's stature was still tall and imposing, dressed in combat gear, with the badge on his shoulder shining coldly, his position in the combat squad was not low.
His face remained stern, eyes sharp like an eagle, sweeping over everyone present.
Wang Dayong and Niu Jieshi disdainfully pursed their lips.
They sensed a scent they disliked emanating from b2.
In some aspects, b2's duty was to handle people like Wang Dayong.
Seeing the gaze from Wang Dayong and Niu Jieshi, b2 furrowed his brow.
"What's your problem?"
"What are you looking at?"
"Try looking again?"
"Try it and see!"
Just as they were about to clash, b2's gaze finally landed on Jiang Xiao, leaving him momentarily stunned.
Then a barely noticeable smile appeared at the corner of b2's mouth as he strode over.
"Jiang Xiao, I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Likewise, I didn't expect to see you under such circumstances."
b2 nodded, then turned his gaze to Wang Dayong and Niu Jieshi, his tone suddenly becoming formal.
"So now we need all the power we can get, including the supernatural realm's power, to face this unknown threat together."
Jiang Xiao looked at those present, these people, whether supernatural or human, were comrades on the same front at this moment.
What they needed to know was the truth, all the clues and information he had gathered during this time.
"Recently, I've uncovered some matters that might relate to the threat we're currently facing."
Jiang Xiao's voice was firm and clear, resonating throughout the entire command center.
Everyone's gaze was focused on him, including Wang Dayong and Niu Jieshi who were just arguing, as well as b2 who had just walked over, their expressions becoming exceptionally serious.
Jiang Xiao began his narration, starting with an incident where a department, driven by economic benefits, illegally discharged industrial wastewater into the ocean, causing massive marine life deaths.
His words were filled with sarcasm and helplessness, as such incidents were not uncommon in human society.
"These wastewaters not only poisoned innocent creatures but also disrupted the ecological balance of the ocean."
Jiang Xiao's voice grew heavier.
"Among them, some unknown, intelligent marine creatures were affected, and their deaths provoked the anger of the underwater world."
He continued.
"The High Priest beneath the sea, to avenge humanity's crimes, conducted an ancient and mysterious ritual, praying for their gods to descend and punish those humans who destroyed the ocean."
Jiang Xiao's statement was like a bombshell, plunging the entire command center into dead silence.
Kidding?
It didn't seem like it, every small expression of Jiang Xiao and even every word didn't seem like a joke.
Everyone present was stunned, they didn't expect such a secret to be hidden behind the events.
Because not everyone had studied that prophecy like those old history professors.
Gods?
The word was not unfamiliar to them, but it felt very distant.
So, everything their world was experiencing could be a punishment from gods for humanity?
Wang Dayong and Niu Jieshi exchanged glances, they were both powerful figures in the supernatural realm, but faced with such a reality, they couldn't help but feel shocked.
b2's expression also became exceptionally grave, he didn't even know what consequences such news would bring if it spread.
"So, what we're facing now might not just be a viral crisis, but a calamity caused by humanity's own crimes."
After hearing Jiang Xiao's words, everyone fell into deep thought.
"We need to cooperate."
b2 suddenly spoke, his voice firm and powerful.
"Whether human or supernatural, we all live in this world, and we can't just watch it be destroyed."
Wang Dayong and Niu Jieshi nodded in agreement, the word "God" also made them realize the seriousness of the situation.
b2's gaze began scanning the hall, as sharp as a blade, daring not to be stared at directly.
Then, he coldly chuckled: "There's one more thing."
All eyes were focused on b2, the air seemed to freeze, waiting for his next words.
"Since this matter is not a natural disaster but man-made, then who exactly are those who illegally discharge wastewater into the ocean without adhering to standards?"
b2's voice was not loud, yet it echoed through the hall, each word striking at the heart of everyone present.
This question, like a bombshell, exploded in the hall, immediately rousing public indignation.
Those who were pensive moments ago were instantly ignited by this question, and angry discussions began to resound within the hall.
"These unscrupulous bastards!" Wang Dayong clenched his fists in anger, a flicker of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
b2 watched everyone's reactions, his cold smile widening.
"Or let's boldly speculate, is it possible that these people knew the consequences of discharging wastewater, but still chose the path of humanity's destruction?"
His words made the atmosphere in the hall even tenser, everyone realized the gravity of the situation.
If that's true, then it's no longer just a problem of illegal wastewater discharge.
Someone wants to use the hand of the gods to destroy the world!
