"Yes." Looking at Shen Shanjing in this time and space, Cheng Lin felt quite emotional.
Although I had already guessed it, when I actually met it, my feelings were slightly different.
In the hazy eyes, Shen Shanjing's body shone with the brilliance of the second rank, while Huang Yin and Yang Congxian next to him were only of the first rank.
They were all looking at him with curious eyes.
"Beijing Superpower Bureau"...is this the department they currently belong to?
Well, considering that the Imperial Capital must have secretly started research in this area, this department should be the predecessor of the "Special Intelligence Department". As for the "Special Intelligence Department", I am afraid that it has not yet been established.
Seeing him nod, Shen Shanjing moved his lips slightly and said:
"We knew what happened to you before. I heard that thanks to your help, the transfer team got through the difficulty."
"It should be done." Cheng Lin smiled calmly.
His demeanor also surprised Shen Shanjing and others. Even if ordinary people's mentality changes after awakening, they should always be fearful and vigilant when facing official practitioners.
What's more, he's still a student.
But Cheng Lin's temperament was completely different from the others, and he didn't even ask what the "superpower bureau" was.
"You shouldn't be just talking about this when you come to us." After being polite, Cheng Lin took the initiative to ask.
Then they saw Shen Shanjing and the other three exchanging glances with each other, nodding solemnly and saying:
"Please come with me if you have any specific matters. We will go in and talk."
"good."
Cheng Lin nodded calmly and walked inside. However, the other Ningcheng Awakeners behind him were quite nervous and didn't know what would greet them.
Song Jun didn't say anything, bit his lip lightly, hesitated for a second, and then followed Cheng Lin up, and the others followed instinctively.
The camp was built as if it were a military base, and the atmosphere was solemn and depressing. Yang Congxian answered a phone call on the way, left here, and seemed to be rushing to the other camps. The remaining people entered a small gray building and entered. In an office.
The room is very simple. The most prominent place is a projector, opposite is a blank curtain with nothing on it.
After asking everyone to sit down, Shen Shanjing glanced at Huang Yin, who nodded, walked forward, looked around everyone, and said solemnly:
"I think you must be very confused now and have many questions you want to ask. But now, I hope you can calm down, because the knowledge and things I am going to describe next may seem incredible."
Huang Yin's voice has a soothing power, which is very different from her in reality.
Cheng Lin thought for a moment and found that the Huang Yin in front of him was more similar to that in the maelstrom deduction.
The room was quiet except for her voice: "It happened a year ago..."
Then, she began to recount the situation in a recalling tone more than a year ago, when the signs of spiritual energy recovery first appeared. Cheng Lin had already heard this knowledge in the class in the Ninth Academy, but now listening to Huang Yin's narration, he felt different, more A lot of details.
According to her, she, Shen Shanjing and others were among the first batch of "affiliated" people in their bodies. They were not awakened, but just friendly. They were secretly transferred to the imperial capital in the name of official business by the state and established the "Superpower Bureau". And gradually study yourself and explore your strength.
And prepare for the possible spiritual energy explosion.
Everything was going in an orderly manner, but an accident still happened.
"Let's take a look at the slides."
Huang Yinjian finished describing basic information such as the concept of awakening and spiritual energy recovery, and then changed the subject and suddenly operated the computer, bringing the topic back to reality.
Then, Cheng Lin saw a strange picture. It was a perspective of the earth. As expected, it came from a satellite.
From this perspective, the original blue planet has become a lot stranger. Most of it is still blue, but there are obvious green patches in the land parts.
It should refer to mutated plants.
"This is what the earth looks like now. Everything happened so suddenly that people were caught off guard," Huang Yin took a deep breath and said, "Just last night, there was an abnormal evolution of plants around the world. As far as we know, this kind of
The changes are not limited to a certain area, but cover the entire planet and even the oceans, but the plants under the sea are still hidden in the water and cannot be seen clearly."
"It is true that some researchers have foreseen a large-scale outbreak of spiritual energy in advance, and even the emergence of a large number of awakened people, but all studies believe that it will happen in the next 1 to 3 years, and the impact on our planet will not be very big.
big."
After a pause, Huang Yin spoke more slowly and said, "But, as you can see, our predictions have serious deviations, and the cause of the deviation has been found."
She closed her mouth, as if giving everyone time to digest the information.
The room was silent for dozens of seconds before Song Jun couldn't help but raise his hand and ask: "What's the reason?"
Huang Yin suddenly forced out an extremely complicated smile, her tone mixed with emotion and some kind of fear: "Because of a hole."
The slide changed to a picture. The background of the picture was the boundless universe. You could see the earth, the moon and other planets. In the void, there was a very small, extremely unattractive light point.
The photo is zoomed in, and in the blurry picture, you can see that it is an illusory white hole, showing a vortex shape, very similar to the cyclone on the weather map.
Huang Yin's calm voice echoed:
"This white hole did not attract our attention at first. It was not until last night that it began to show abnormal fluctuations, and we discovered it. Then, the white hole became clear, and plants were drilled out of it.
The leaves, with their extremely fast speed and strange appearance, grew into a huge thing in a few hours.
At the same time, the spiritual energy on the earth has experienced an abnormal increase. If this is the case, at most it is that the predicted wave of awakening has arrived early. But what scares us is that this group of plants in the void actually sent some kind of signal, directly
It has led to the mutation of ordinary plants on the ground!"
In the slideshow, the picture switched again, and I saw that in the dark, deep universe, in the void, a group of giant plants composed of countless vines, leaves, and flowers were floating there quietly!
It is extremely huge, with countless roots, floating in the universe, and is gradually approaching the earth under the influence of gravity. Its roots on the side close to the earth are flying, like arms, trying to embrace the earth into its arms.
What is this?
How could such huge plants grow in outer space?
Even Cheng Lin subconsciously tensed up and felt a slight chill down his spine when he saw this picture.
And he noticed that in Huang Yin's narrative, this giant group of plants seemed to exist as a separate life form.
"As you can see, it has only been a dozen hours since it appeared, and it has grown to this size, and it is still expanding! It's just that the speed is slower.
According to our observations and estimates, if nothing is done to prevent it, its roots will enter the atmosphere within five days at most, and they will come into contact with the surface within ten days.
By then, even if the mutated plants on our earth are not enough to destroy us, the earth will stop spinning or go out of orbit, which will cause the destruction of the entire human race!"
Huang Yin's voice became increasingly urgent and heavy, and on the slide, a short video of a simulated experiment began to play.
In the short film, the entire earth is connected to this mass of void plants and then wrapped by it. The entire planet stops completely, and both the ocean and the land are completely covered by plants.
In this extreme environment, humans are obviously not immune!
silence!
Everyone in the room fell silent!
Most of them are just students. How could they have imagined that the matter could be so serious.
"No...it can't be...it can't enter the atmosphere, can it? It's just a plant...we can attack it!" an awakened person wearing glasses stammered.
Shen Shanjing, who was standing aside, said in a deep voice: "It failed."
"What?"
"I mean, just this morning, the Federation took the lead in launching an outer space strike against it. However, we failed."
Hearing Shen Shanjing's words, Cheng Lin, who frowned and said nothing, finally asked: "What was used to hit?"
Huang Yin gave a pale smile: "neutron bomb, hydrogen bomb, hydrogen uranium bomb... a total of eleven strikes were attempted."
Hearing these familiar yet unfamiliar terms, the awakened people present all opened their mouths.
incredible.
They naturally understand what these words mean: nuclear weapons.
The Federation has launched eleven nuclear strikes in outer space in one morning? Why were they unaware?
Yes, there was an explosion in outer space and the sky was covered by thick fog, so they really couldn't see it.
Huang Yin said bitterly: "You should have noticed in the morning that the network and phone signals are getting worse and worse. I guess you think this is caused by spiritual energy or those plants, right?
In fact, no, their impact on signals is not serious. The main influencing factor is these nuclear explosions. The electromagnetic pulses they release seriously affect the communication equipment on the earth."
After the words fell, the room fell into silence again.
Everyone's face was almost full of confusion. At the beginning of their awakening, most of them were actually excited, even when they discovered that the world was changing. They thought they were the trendsetters in the era of great change, and thought they were the chosen ones.
people.
Some people even dream of establishing some order in the apocalypse... There are also some dark thoughts among them...
However, when they bumped into Dryad and Thorn Flower on the way, they were thrown cold water on them for the first time and realized that the world was not friendly to them either.
However, it was only now that they painfully discovered that this was no longer a question of friendship, but a catastrophe of whether humans could survive.
Nuclear weapons have failed, so what can be done to stop them?
In the thick atmosphere of despair, Cheng Lin blinked his eyes and said:
"You already have a plan? What do you need us to do?"
