Chapter 2790 - 2790 The source of the disaster?
2790 The source of the disaster?
In the core area of the sea Kingdom’s territory.
Different from the mirror-like scenes of the other Sea regions, this Sea region was full of raging waves, as if the end of the world had come.
This was a forbidden area, and no boat people had ever dared to approach it, as it was no different from courting death.
From time to time, seven-colored energy beams would shoot up to the sky from the deep ocean.
The sun was nowhere to be found, and only thick dark clouds were suspended in the sky, as if they would fall at any moment.
The exploding rainbow beams dyed the dark clouds in all sorts of colors. This scene didn’t have any sense of beauty, but instead made people feel even more depressed.
Thousands of meters deep in the sea, there was the main tower of the ocean Kingdom, which was surrounded and protected by countless deep-sea Giant beasts.
It was a super building that looked like an upside-down bowl. Its internal structure was like an ant’s nest, and it had already been upgraded to continent-level.
The atmosphere within the huge tower was tense and oppressive.
“I’ve just received news that four towers have been attacked by an unknown mental virus. The specific number of infected can’t be counted.
It’s been confirmed that none of the residents of loucheng, where the mental virus first broke out, were spared. This is what they look like now.”
When the cultivator in charge of the investigation said this, he shook his hand and released an item that looked like a large glass bottle.
A cultivator from the ocean Kingdom was imprisoned in the bottle. However, his face was unrecognizable now, and he looked like a dried corpse.
“How did Yingying become like this?”
Seeing the miserable state of the cultivators of loucheng, the city Lords of loucheng, whose bodies were made of water, were shocked. They had been informed of the meeting and did not know what had happened.
what kind of virus is this? how did this happen? is there no way to solve it? ”
City Lord Lou, who was ten thousand miles away, asked in an angry tone. His face was filled with disbelief.
He was shocked by the data he had just seen. There were hundreds of thousands of residents in the four towers. How could they all be infected with the mental virus?
The first thought that came to his mind was that this was not a coincidence, but a despicable conspiracy!
“I’m not sure about the specific situation, but according to preliminary analysis, I guess that some kind of strong curse power of will has mutated, which caused this crisis.
All infected cultivators in loucheng city would be extremely disgusted and afraid of water. They would automatically drain the water from their bodies, making themselves look like mummies.
Even Lou Cheng’s cultivators, who had completed the energy transformation, would be affected by the mental virus. The energy in their bodies would be transformed into water and then driven away.
To put it simply, it was to burn and consume one’s own body with all one’s might, forcing one to die from overexertion!
According to the information we have, the strongest among the infected has already reached the spiritual Emperor level, and is only one step away from becoming a sector Lord!”
After hearing the cultivator’s explanation, the city Lords all gasped.
Even spirit emperors couldn’t escape from it, which meant that they could also be infected after coming in contact with the virus.
The city Lords ‘vigilance rose once again, and their anger followed. Their thoughts became the same, and this situation was definitely not a coincidence.
“What kind of curse power could affect a spirit Emperor cultivator and turn our people into this kind of ghost?”
The city Lord who spoke sneered and looked at the sea Kingdom’s Lord who was silent beside him. There was a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
For such a big thing to happen in the territory, as the Lord, he had an unshirkable responsibility. This matter might even be related to the Lord.
The cultivator in charge of the investigation hesitated for a moment. He peeked at the sea Kingdom’s feudal lord, not knowing if he should give an explanation.
“Tell me the truth, don’t hide anything!”
A deep voice was heard. Then, a figure suddenly appeared, exuding a terrifying aura.
Upon seeing this figure, the surrounding city Lords saluted at the same time, directly greeting the old Lord.
The Lord of the sea kingdom who was sitting at the head of the table also stood up and saluted. He did not dare to show any neglect.
“Tell me, what happened?”
The old Lord didn’t care about the others. He just stared at the cultivator in charge of the investigation and said in a cold tone.
Seeing this, the cultivator from Lou Cheng did not dare to hide anything and immediately told him everything he knew.
according to our investigation, this mental virus, which is cultivated through the power of curses, originated from the invasion of the rock caves into the plane world.
All the cultivators in loucheng who had participated in the invasion had been infected and were now gathered at the entrance of the dimensional gateway.
Due to their fear of water, they were unable to use the dimensional gateway and were now trapped in the invading world.
The virus came from the natives of this plane, but under normal circumstances, the curses of mortals couldn’t harm the cultivators of Lou Cheng. This was the biggest suspicion.
When we were ready to investigate further, we found that all the natives had been completely exterminated, and all the infected cultivators in loucheng had been killed.
All the suspected targets are dead, which means that no one will know the truth. We can only speculate based on clues.
The biggest suspect is the original consciousness of this world. It transformed the wish power of the survivors into a mental virus that could infect the cultivators in Lou Cheng!”
After the cultivator in charge of the investigation finished speaking, he looked at the old Lord, who was deep in thought, and waited for his opinion.
In terms of cultivation, strength, and experience, no one in the entire ocean Kingdom could be compared to the old Lord.
“According to my understanding, the Origin’s consciousness would indeed counterattack after being alarmed, but it would definitely not have such fine control.
It wasn’t easy to turn a mortal’s weak wish power into a mental virus that could harm the cultivators in Lou Cheng.
The transformation process of this virus was even more complicated than the breeding of gods. It required a long time to deduce and evolve, and it might not even succeed.
Therefore, it’s impossible for the Origin’s consciousness to transform wish power into such a terrifying mental virus in such a short time, and it’s specifically targeted at the cultivators of loucheng in the sea Kingdom’s territory.”
After the old Lord said this, he turned to look at the sea kingdom Lord beside him. The other party had not said a word, and no one knew what he was thinking.
“I suspect that there’s a mastermind behind this, and it’s not the world’s origin at all.
To be more precise, it should be a God-level powerhouse who planned this behind the scenes. The mental virus was also created by the other party.”
Hearing the old Lord’s analysis, all the city Lords were secretly shocked. If this was really the case, it was far more serious than they had imagined.
What was the origin of that God-level cultivator? it was impossible for a God to appear in the world that the city of the cave had invaded.
“Then where did the God-ranked cultivator you mentioned come from? why did he attack us?”
One of the city Lords couldn’t help but ask. Facing a hidden God-grade cultivator, the city Lords couldn’t help but feel a little flustered.
Hearing this, the old Lord turned to the current Lord beside him and said in a calm tone, ” if you want to know what’s going on, perhaps you can ask our Lord. He must know the answer!
All the city Lords could hear the strong dissatisfaction in the old Lord’s tone.
Hearing this, all the city Lords looked at the sea Kingdom’s feudal lord with confusion and anger in their eyes.
They trusted the old Lord very much, and since he had said so, it must be related to the current Lord.
This matter was related to the safety of hundreds of thousands of cultivators in Lou Cheng and the sea kingdom. He had to explain it clearly!
Otherwise, even if he was a Lord, they would dare to dismiss him and replace him with a competent leader.
The sea Kingdom’s feudal lord was silent for a moment as he faced the gazes that were directed at him. He then said in a light tone, ” “If I’m not wrong, this matter should be done by Tang Zhen. Because other than him, I can’t find any other suspects.”
“Tang Zhen? Is it the Lord of the cracked territory? why did he attack us?”
After hearing the oceanic Kingdom’s Lord’s explanation, the city Lords were even more confused. They could not understand what was going on.
Facing the doubtful gazes of the city Lords, the sea Kingdom’s feudal lord stood up and said in an angry tone, ” “When Tang Zhen was attending the gathering in the immortal spirit territory, he flew into a rage out of humiliation because of a few questions from my son. Then, he took the initiative to declare war on my sea kingdom territory.
Tang Zhen has gone too far. This kind of behavior is the greatest insult to my cracked territory. Therefore, I will represent the sea kingdom and declare war on the cracked territory.
So, I think that this matter is very likely his doing, or it has an inextricable relationship with him.”
After the sea Kingdom’s feudal lord finished speaking, he looked at the surrounding castellans, only to see them sneering non-stop. Their faces were filled with disdain and anger.
The truth had already been revealed. The father and son had declared war on the cracked territory without any discussion, which led to this disaster.
