Chapter 257.
Sheng An looked at Qiu Yu’s back, his eyes deep in the dark.
Ruan Zifeng kept sighing.
If you want to clear Qiu Yu’s identity as a “suspect”, you have to find the real M. But no matter who it is, the pain and agony will not be less.
If M could not be found, then Team Leader Qiu would be under permanent surveillance.
Ruan Zifeng thought for the first time, if M can have a little action, as long as He exposed a little trace, it can be the suspicion of Team Leader Qiu will be lifted …….
However, even he could not be 100% sure that Qiu Yu was not M. He was really hiding too deep.
He is really hiding too deeply.
Jiang Ling patted his shoulder and said softly, “It is impossible for M to remain still, as long as action is taken, there will be results, Team Leader Qiu won’t have to wait too long.”
Ruan Zifeng nodded heavily.
The two looked to their temporary, new head – Sheng An.
It wasn’t hard to get used to, as early as the day of the doomsday, they had executed meteorite interceptions under Sheng An’s arrangement, and Sheng An had always been able to make people accept her arrangements and follow her orders as a matter of course.
Several people from Team A came up to listen.
Sheng An was asking about the meteorite fragments.
Dr. Yan couldn’t help but sigh, “As a matter of fact, not only are you guys unsure if the fragments should be collected, we’re also unsure, those fragments have now become hot potatoes, there’s no way to start, and now they’re all still placed inside the Zhang Kun space.”
Whether or not to continue collecting, has been a major decision about the future of mankind, so far, there are not enough clues to support, all no one can decide.
Chief Base Chief looked at Sheng An with serious eyes, “Based on previous speculations, it is almost certain – you are the ‘god’ of reopening a game, and also the greatest hope. Therefore, whether or not to continue the collection, we will leave this matter to you to decide.”
This was not a diversion of responsibility.
On the contrary, because this matter has a huge impact, even so big that it determines the future of mankind, determines the final outcome of the game with the invading creatures …… The one who makes the decision will be the one who carries the hope of mankind.
And this, has always been the Special Intelligence Service, has always been Sheng An.
Hao Jingye frowned tightly, glasses on the nose, gently shaking his head, “from Sheng sister layout success, M kill Liu academician will verify clearly, the fae do not exclude us to collect fragments.
“Coupled with the prophetic images, I think the fragments can no longer be collected, instead, we should focus all of our next focus on destruction, or find a way to disperse them to avoid a worse end.”
His words were very sensible.
Gu Qiansheng’s few people couldn’t help but nod in agreement.
When they thought of the ball Sheng An had clutched in his hands during the prophecy, that desperate “Wrong”, they couldn’t stop shivering.
However, Dr. Yan shook his head.
His expression was very complicated and even vaguely heavy.
“What’s wrong?” Sheng An asked.
Dr. Yan looked at them, growing more and more grave:
“You were squatting in Stone City to guard M. There were other important matters, so I didn’t inform you.
“After the fragments were sent back to the capital base, they were directly placed in the Meteorite Research Institute in the northernmost corner of the base, where Academician Xu led the research, which focused on destruction.
“Three days ago, Academician Xu’s experiment made a little progress, the fragment that had been indestructible and had no way to change, was forced to destroy a little bit, but also just destroy a little bit of the fragment’s surface structure, there was no substantial progress at all.”
He took a deep breath, and slowly opened his mouth amidst the equally grave attitudes of the base chief and Elder Li –
“With just that little bit of surface structure destruction, the entire Meteorite Research Institute, one hundred and thirty-two people, including security and guards, six 2-star xenos and twelve 1-star xenos, all turned into xenos and none of them were spared.”
Sheng An and the others were shocked.
Li Xin instinctively grabbed Long Tianyu’s sleeve and sucked in a mouthful of cold air.
“All turned into fae?!” Hao Jingye pulled up his voice.
Chief Base Chief nodded, “Yes, all of them turned into fae, at the moment of destruction, a huge special substance spread with the fragment as the center, some of them had a transformation process, and some of them turned into fae without a word, those who were near the fragment, only Academician Xu had the time to send out a signal.”
He closed his eyes slightly, his heart heavy.
No matter how much experience, every time someone died in the middle of a disaster, it was still a huge blow.
Dean Wang: “Up until now, the capital base has continued to have people turn into xenos, especially those close to the Meteorite Research Institute, and after three days, this matter has yet to pass.
“That side is now sealed off, no one is allowed to approach for the time being, that piece of debris is still left inside, the rest are given to Zhang Kun to put in space.”
In an instant, the surroundings fell into silence.
Xiang Hanfeng and Jiang Ling also couldn’t help but suck in cold air, their backs chilling.
What did this mean?
Destruction was almost impossible!
A little bit of structural destruction was an entire institute turning into a fae, and it was still affecting a large range of people to this day, what if it was completely destroyed?
What if all the pieces were destroyed?
—Disaster!
An almost completely predictable disaster.
Sheng An finally understood, no wonder the shards were not in the institute, and were now placed in the Zhang Kun space for him to carry with him.
It wasn’t that they weren’t willing to put it in the Institute, they didn’t dare, and there was no way around it.
The Meteorite Research Institute in the capital was now in chaos.
Having already said this, Dr. Yan simply finished all of it and added, “Team Leader Sheng, after the acid rain came, we didn’t let the various places collect debris to send to the capital anymore, but the latest news reported by the various bases is not so good.”
Pursing his lips, he continued, “Of the 25 secure bases in the country, only 23 are left now.”
The hearts of the crowd sank.
Sheng An frowned, “We toured the bases with bad acid rain conditions.”
The chief base chief shook his head, “Those two bases were not in trouble because of acid rain ……”
He explained to them.
It wasn’t exactly because of acid rain, but it was related to it.
A large number of meteorites had landed near one base, and the mountain was on fire before, so it wasn’t fully collected.
When the acid rain came, the heavy rain carried the blood left on the soil and soaked through the scattered debris, causing the number of fae at the base to suddenly grow, the order of the base to go out of control, and in the chaos, there were serious deaths and injuries.
The acid rain had just ended, and the survivors of the base were migrating to the nearest safe base.
But that base had been largely declared gone.
The situation at the other base was even more complicated.
The base was considered the smallest of all the bases, and due to the distance, the previous meteorites and natural disasters had resulted in heavy casualties, and Qiu Yu had even exterminated a Blood Pool Fae near them.
This time, when the acid rain came, the base fae unrest led to heavy casualties.
“It shouldn’t be, it was purged once before and the powerful fae among them had already been exterminated, so it’s reasonable to say that the security base’s fae are enough to handle it.” Song Linwei frowned.
The base chief replied, “Because the rioting fae still have fragments in their hands, their advancement and reinforcement is faster than that of the xenos, it was purged once, but the new fae that appeared will soon become stronger again, and it’s extremely difficult to deal with.”
Lai Wan Yun’s hand clenched into a fist.
Sheng An exhaled slowly, she had always known that the shards existed in favor of the fae, and that it was more beneficial for them to hold them in their hands than for humans to hold them.
Allowing the shards to go out into the world would only accelerate the destruction of the world, accelerating the fae to become stronger and the humans to perish.
Wu Buye scratched his head, grumpy: “Unwilling to collect, afraid to destroy, unable to let go, what the hell should we do with this fragment?!”
Dr. Yan and the base chief looked at Sheng An.
Even Elder Li didn’t say anything, waiting for Sheng An’s decision.
Every aspect of the path was blocked, and there was no way for them to rationally make a decision, so they could only turn to “God”, to “Him” who reopened everything.
–He is “God” and He is Sheng An.
