I Have A Dual World Seal

Chapter 1349 - 1348: Of Course We Forgive Him

In fact, it wasn’t just this one border checkpoint. Nearly all the checkpoints along the hundred kilometers where Yunnan Province borders Mianguo have seen a large surge of crowds.

The sudden influx was so overwhelming that it jam-packed the border checkpoints, forcing them to urgently procure more bottled water and instant noodles from the rear. The staff even found many among them to be ill or injured.

Since they couldn’t allow these individuals to enter temporarily, they hurriedly sought assistance from nearby hospitals, nearly turning a small border checkpoint into a field hospital.

The situation’s unexpectedness and severity alarmed the upper echelons immediately.

"Tens of thousands of people, surging at the border?"

"Thunderstorms, golden lightning, striking down over a thousand people?"

"It’s probably not just that; all the Electric Fraud Industrial Parks and military camps along the border have been hit by the thunderstorms. The industrial parks are just a preliminary estimate; we aren’t even sure if it’s the entirety.

As for the military camps in Mianbei, we are completely unclear about the specifics. We only observed through satellite that dozens of military camps are still in chaos, suggesting that quite a few senior officers were likely casualties."

"Is there a detailed report?"

"We specifically checked the satellite cloud images for some time back. That region was exactly shrouded by dark clouds."

"Although Mianbei has communication capabilities, due to local armed control, there are very few real photos or videos that come out. So, the specific situation isn’t posted on the foreign web, which means...."

"Wait a minute! Send this matter to the Ancient Culture Research and Analysis Archival Room!"

"You’re saying..."

"Is there any other possibility?"

...

"There shouldn’t be any other possibility, right?"

In a certain meeting room of the Ancient Culture Research and Analysis Archival Room, an emergency meeting was once again held.

Everyone looked at Xiao Yuya, who then put down her phone and said irrelevantly, "Lin Wan and Lu Zheng are eating mushrooms in Yunnan Province."

"Damn!"

"I knew it!"

"Was it Lu Zheng’s doing?"

"If the other three women are not there, then it should be Lu Zheng."

"Is this Thunder Technique? It must be Thunder Technique, right?"

"It’s terrifying, a meteorological weapon stretching hundreds of miles, striking down thousands, even up to tens of thousands?" someone exclaimed, "This is already larger in scope than that event across the ocean, isn’t it?"

"It seems to have been done in batches."

"Even so, it’s very powerful!"

"But this is too high-profile!" someone frowned and said, "How does he not know how to conceal it anymore?"

"How to conceal it, like before when eliminating powder merchants by pretending to be special forces?" someone argued back, "Bear in mind, the Electric Fraud Industrial Park almost targets only our own country. This makes it seem like we are conducting cross-border operations."

"But like this..."

"Isn’t it clearly exposing the extraordinary nature?

Thunderstorm weather, golden lightning, striking down a thousand people in a day plainly shows it is a force of nature, not technology, but also shows it’s not a natural phenomenon but rather a man-made action.

You can’t stop people from thinking along the lines of the extraordinary!

Alright, let’s backpedal a hundred thousand steps; even if it’s a technological weapon, which country currently has a meteorological weapon that can reach this extent?

The Lighthouse Country’s mass spontaneous combustion incident has already been very eye-catching, yet there has been no conclusion up until now. It’s just that since nothing further happened, the buzz gradually subsided.

Now, in Mianbei, this storm lightning killing incident so similar to the situation in Los Angeles arises, both involving high technology unfamiliar to humans, perhaps even directly being divine miracles.

How are people supposed to think? Either it’s an Immortal descending to the mortal realm, or alien technology, or both together."

"What are they to think? Let them think whatever they want. Besides, even if they think, what use is it?"

Someone said, "Take, for instance, the incident last time. From the intelligence we intercepted, the Lighthouse Country has indeed begun secretly investigating aliens and ancient mythology within its territory, yet almost two years in, they’ve gotten nowhere, still clinging uselessly to some relics of Pharaoh Country."

"This..."

"So Lu Zheng didn’t consider the matters of concealment?"

"It’s unknown. Maybe he considered it; maybe... he no longer cares."

"What? Are you saying..."

"Well, it’s understandable. Anyone with such terrifying power would eventually be unable to control themselves. It’s already hard enough that Lu Zheng managed until now, especially since he’s still young."

"You can’t really say that. Actually, he has it very much under control. Just days ago, the incident in Antarctica, he specifically called us."

"Then why didn’t he call this time?"

"Old Li, mind your position. After all, he isn’t our subordinate. Last time in Antarctica, it was optional, his goodwill in helping out. We could refuse, but in this matter today, he’s decided to do it; your opinion doesn’t matter!"

Old Li was taken aback, nodded, and said, "I’m sorry."

"No problem, it’s all for the country," the middle-aged person who reminded Old Li explained, "Actually, there’s nothing much we can do about Mianbei. He knew we couldn’t handle it, so he dealt with it his way."

The elder seated at the head of the table nodded and added, "When encountering matters where people voice criticism against him, think about the Red Chess River Project, and you’ll know how to face him."

Everyone heard this and smiled bitterly.

How else could they handle the presence of such an Immortal? Of course, they forgive him and find ways to cover up for him.

"So what do we do now?"

"Of course, accept the entry applications from border citizens. Deploy more police to help, and after the records are completed, send those to go home, to detention centers, or to other embassies."

"Then communicate with Mianguo, preferably forming a joint investigation team to conduct an in-depth and detailed analysis investigation of this incident, to uncover what exactly happened."

"By the way, these people’s records can be given to Mianguo, and even to Interpol," someone thought for a moment and said. "This can also indirectly show that we know nothing; we are innocent."

"Indeed, we know nothing, and we want to understand the truth of this incident. If other countries are interested, they can also join in."

"Nevertheless, it’s ultimately our matter with Mianguo. If other third parties want to openly intervene, they must provide some substantive actions, right?"

"Regarding what they can or cannot find out, that’s beyond our control."

"By the way," someone reminded, "might anyone link the incident this time to the last case where powder merchants were killed, followed by the erection of a monument?"

"That stele that hurts your eyes just by glancing at it, right?" someone sighed. "It’s as if there’s any lead on that stele now."
