Now reading: Chapter 251 - 250: The Taoist Office’s Speculation on the Ot from Wielding the Thunders Across Two Worlds, a Eastern novel by Watermelon Eats Grapes.

「Yandu. Taoist Cultural Exchange Support Office.」

Similar to the last eting, the host sat to one side, and several videos were playing on the large screen next to him.

The first video, likely shot from the security cara of a street-facing storefront, showed a crowd of people suddenly rushing out of a shop across the road. Then, a raging fire erupted within the shop.

A team of firefighters arrived quickly. Several used a fire hose to fight the blaze, while another rushed into the store. He soon erged carrying a two- or three-year-old child.

But just as he reached the doorway, a significant explosion occurred inside the shop. The glass door and wall shattered instantly, sending a torrent of debris from inside flying out.

Yet despite this, the firefighter remained perfectly steady, not even wavering. All the exploding debris that hit his body seed to strike an insurmountable wall, falling harmlessly to the ground.

The second video was shot from a head-mounted cara. As the person walked, you could see they were wearing a food delivery uniform and carrying a takeout order.

Soon, the cara’s wearer arrived at the door of a residence. They knocked, used the food delivery as a pretext, and as soon as the door opened, they and the people with them rushed inside.

But just as they were subduing the suspect, another person suddenly ran out of a bedroom. Seeing the scuffle, they pulled out a gun without a second thought and fired at the cara’s wearer.

The cara’s wearer was shot but seed completely unfazed, charging right through the gunfire. Before the shooter’s shocked eyes, they disard and subdued them, slapping on a pair of handcuffs.

The third video was also from a security cara, apparently at a routine checkpoint. Two inspectors with a dog were seen boarding a van for a standard inspection.

But a mont later, the van suddenly started. It first threw the dog out, then, while making a U-turn, it flung both inspectors out onto the road.

Just as the van completed its turn and was about to flee, one of the inspectors appeared unable to move. The other inspector didn’t run but instead shielded their partner, turning their back to face the escaping van.

Finally, when the van hit the inspector, it was stopped dead in its tracks. You could even see the front of the van crumple on the surveillance footage.

"A while ago, we received the first batch of Vajra Profound Talismans. After so light costic modification, we distributed them to the regions and departnts with the highest casualty rates."

"Compared to the sa period, the casualty rates in those regions and departnts have dropped significantly."

The host pointed to the large screen and explained, "What the videos show are a few of the more typical incidents that happened to be caught on cara."

"Fireproof, explosion-proof, bulletproof, and impact-proof!"

"I think this is way better than a bulletproof vest. Even with a vest, the impact from a bullet can knock the wind out of you or even break your ribs. There’s no way you could keep fighting like that, full of energy."

"You can tell from Li Chang’an’s video. The greatest feature of this Vajra Profound Talisman is its ability to completely negate all impact force, leaving the wearer unhard. That’s why a wearer could even survive a fall from a great height!"

"It’s too powerful. What’s the principle behind it? When we were running tests, one associate professor’s worldview was shattered. He kept shouting that physics had been overturned."

"Don’t ask. It’s just Taoist Sect taphysics."

After a mont of marveling and joking, the group finally got down to business.

"The Vajra Profound Talisman is truly an amazing item. And supposedly, these are the lower-quality ones. Their defensive limit is much lower than the Golden Gang Bracelet’s, but it’s still enough to ensure the wearer’s safety in most situations."

"According to our tests, its defensive limit is roughly equivalent to being hit by a hundred-ton truck or falling from the sky without a parachute. However, this would also cause the Vajra Profound Talisman’s energy to be completely consud in an instant, leaving no remaining duration of effect."

"Damn, that’s already incredible. What more could you want?"

"So, does this an our paratroopers won’t need parachutes anymore?"

The room fell silent. "Let’s change the subject."

"Alright, new topic. Based on our analysis and speculation, that world doesn’t just have Ghost Gods and Demon Beasts. It also has humanoid beings, who might even be very similar to us humans.

Gu Zhao and the other Daoists took gold and silver, fruit, grain, and ancient-style clothing with them. This clearly shows they can live a normal life over there. So of the clothes weren’t even for their own use—and they were quite beautiful won’s garnts.

Then there are these Vajra Profound Talismans. There are so many of them; there’s no way the Daoists drew them all personally. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have ti for anything else. They might not finish even if they spent all day Drawing Talismans.

From this, we can deduce that the world over there might have an environnt similar to our ancient societies, but with the existence of various Extraordinary creatures, making life there quite dangerous."

"Like those strange tales?"

"Journey to the West?"

"Investiture of the Gods?"

"Sothing like that," the host said. "And according to our sociologists, if humans and a society exist, then a social order must also exist, along with a power that maintains that order. In other words... an institution."

"A Court?"

"Yes." The host nodded. "The Court of an Extraordinary World would naturally possess Extraordinary power, and it would likely be the strongest power in that world."

"Judging from the attitudes of Taoist Yi Hong and Taoist Ming Yu, this power should be far stronger than they are."

Thinking back to the might Taoist Ming Yu had displayed in Huaqi Country, everyone in the room drew a sharp, cold breath. "HISS—"

"So we were right not to send our own people over."

"The more people, the more chances for mistakes."

"If the Court of that world discovers our existence and finds a way to co to our world, the consequences would be truly unimaginable."

"And based on our assessnt, the key to crossing between the Two Realms seems to lie with Gu Zhao. As for the specific details, we still don’t know."

Soone said, "Should we suggest to Gu Zhao that he stay on our side as much as possible?"

Soone shot him a sidelong glance. "You go tell him."

The person gave a sheepish, embarrassed laugh. "Never mind."

"Gu Zhao is their core, and he should also be the most powerful among them." The elderly man at the head of the table tapped the table, setting the tone for the discussion. "We must show him the utmost respect."

"Understood," the group nodded.

"Have the lee weapons been sent over?" the elderly man asked again.

"They’ve all been sent. We used the latest generation of materials. Whether it’s hardness, toughness, heat resistance, or cold resistance, they all et the highest standards."

"Good." The elderly man nodded. "No one should be hasty. They have a good disposition, and with so many Daoists on their side, as long as our exchange remains pleasant and our support is sufficient, there will naturally be benefits for us down the line."

"Understood." Zheng Hongsheng, who had previously been to Yangcheng, was sitting further down the table and nodded in agreent. "Putting everything else aside, just the thought of borrowing that storage gourd at a critical mont is exciting!"
