“I barely managed to steady myself, my head throbbing as if soone had smashed it with a hamr.
Then, a terrifying scene unfolded.
When I looked up again, right in the direction I wanted to pass!!”
…
“I clearly rember when I looked back, there were others lying behind , several people standing like , all holding their heads in pain.”
…
“I was extrely scared at the ti.
I didn’t know what it was.
It felt like soone was screaming in my mind, just like those spiritual attacks in movies and novels, or like those rumored black technology ultrasonic weapons.
I didn’t know what it was, but it was definitely dangerous!”
…
“I don’t think I’m one of those NPC side characters in movies who has to go find out what’s happening in such a bizarre and horrifying situation…
so I ran imdiately!
And I am really glad about the choice I made!”
“Because just when I was about to run out of the hospital, the scream ca again!
But maybe because I had run farther, the pain wasn’t as intense as before, otherwise I would have ended up like them!”
…
“What about the original poster?
What happened next?”
“Hurry up and update!
If you don’t, I’m gonna send you razor blades!”
“…”
Below were a bunch of playful remarks from netizens, but “Wandering Magnolia’s” this ti reply took a while, and Zhang Xiaoman had to flip through a few pages to find the continuation.
“Just went to take a call from a forum friend who wanted to set up a blind date, continuing now…”
“As a protagonist with a functioning brain, I smartly ran to several streets away from Huangkou Hospital before stopping.
Then, I found a Starbucks in a relatively elevated position and sat by the window to see what was actually happening.”
At this point, another person replied: “Poster, don’t forget to take your cup when you leave, next ti you can bring it to the office to carry so plain water!”
“Hero upstairs, we think alike.”
…
Wandering Magnolia continued: “At first, rows of police cars passed by, but then an hour later, the road below was suddenly closed, and it was cleared, and then I saw that battalion from the news!”
“This was the first ti I saw the military so close, the scene was mighty impressive!
When I saw the armored vehicles, I really regretted not joining the army!”
“However, I couldn’t see what happened next, but I can be sure that the initial incident was definitely not so natural gas leak!
I rember that horrifying sound, it was imprinted in my mind, my head still feels a bit painful!”
“As for what exactly caused this incident, I can’t say for sure, but I did hear a loud noise, a very loud one, it startled …”
“That concludes my firsthand experience, absolutely real!”
“Alright, enough from , the poster is off to a blind date.
Wish luck…”
Zhang Xiaoman read up to here and noticed there were no more responses from the account “Wandering Magnolia” afterward, just a lot of lively discussions from netizens.
“It’s over, it’s over, after checking water ters, delivering parcels, and sending warmth, is there a new trick now?
Blind dating…
This one is really hard to refuse!”
“The poster has lost contact, he is probably drinking tea right now…”
“Actually, I think this case might really be related to the supernatural.
Have you all forgotten about the previous Daylight Incident and Flashing Incident?”
“Is the person upstairs talking about the anomaly over Qionghua City and the flash everyone ‘saw’ four days ago at night?
But I heard one of those was a mirage in Sea City and the other was a sunspot flare.
How could it be a supernatural event?”
“Haha, buddy, you’re too naive.
Have you ever seen any mirage that can cover an area of a hundred square kiloters?
That sunspot flare is even more unlikely.
I was sleeping at the ti, yet I could still see that flash.
Do you think a sunspot flare could enter my dreams and wake up?”
“Enough already, stop arguing!
Even if the King of Heaven showed up today, it would still be about the Spiritual Energy Recovery!
I’m sensing the energy right now and about to awaken.
Soon, I’ll do a live stream tearing apart space, so guys, rember to support .”
“…”
Watching the progressively more absurd comnts below, Zhang Xiaoman felt a mix of laughter and tears.
He flipped through so posts from the past few days and realized that, having been offline, he’d missed so intensely debated discussions online about recent events, reminiscent of the fervor of old tis.
Zhang Xiaoman noted that so people made points that seed plausible, like discussions about the Dark World and Spiritual Energy Recovery.
But knowing the truth, he understood none of it was correct; their views were too optimistic…
The reason was simple, whether discussing Spiritual Energy Recovery or the Dark World, all were based on a fantasy that assud one precondition.
That precondition was humans possessing and controlling Extraordinary Powers!
But in reality, during this Great Fusion, humans hadn’t awakened any Extraordinary Abilities…
In other words, when facing various monsters in the future, ordinary people would be utterly defenseless.
This was a cruel and frightening reality.
It not only shattered many people’s illusions but also put humanity in a very dangerous situation in the upcoming Great Fusion, especially since real military forces made up just a fraction of the world’s population.
Moreover, many monsters from another singularity could counter human technological abilities, like the Mist-producing Fog Heart…
So now, calculating his situation, Zhang Xiaoman imdiately felt an increased pressure on him, and the need to accelerate the establishnt of the Star Alliance beca urgent.
Moreover, he needed to further increase the scale of his expectations; otherwise, it would rely be about self-preservation.
Realizing all this, Zhang Xiaoman felt an even greater urgency.
His mind was fixated on heading to the Original Realm to master the use of the Enlightennt Array Magic Technique, which also diminished his interest in browsing the forum even more.
He closed the webpage and suddenly received a phone call from Master Liu.
The conversation between them was brief.
Master Liu expressed his longing for his big black dog and asked Zhang Xiaoman to deliver the dog to him the next noon along with two geese from ihua Road; no other topics were ntioned.
It was apparent that Master Liu was still very cautious, as if he had never t him in Dragon Province.
After hanging up, Zhang Xiaoman’s mom ca out of her room holding a notebook, which she imdiately stuffed into Zhang Xiaoman’s arms.
Looking at the item in his hands, Zhang Xiaoman was puzzled and asked, “Mom, what is this?
What’s it for?”
His mom motioned with her mouth for him to open it and look.
Following her suggestion, Zhang Xiaoman opened the notebook only to be slightly taken aback the mont he did.
The pages were densely packed with text—words like “frawork,” “entity,” “system,” and similar concepts filled the pages, adding to his confusion.
“Mom, what is all this?
Why did you write these things?”
In response, his mom rolled her eyes at him and said sowhat irritably:
“These are managent strategies, of course.
Aren’t you establishing an organization?
Didn’t you talk about setting up sothing like the Star Alliance?
Do you think you can run an organization just by pulling in a couple of people and throwing so perks their way?
Don’t be naive.
When you have ti, take a good look at this.
This is the secret book your mom wrote for you.”
PS: This chapter has so severe cuts.
To avoid further omissions, I won’t add much more, just fixed so disconnections, which shouldn’t impact your reading experience.
