Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm

"Ding-ling～"

This time it was the dedicated AI line from Tianfu Province.

Even Meng Xiaochuan felt numb.

Although he deeply appreciated the overwhelming power of Great Xia from one dedicated call after another, could they please just let him take a break?

Five minutes later.

He finished the fourth dedicated call and finally, no more intelligent AI came to check on him.

Only then did Meng Xiaochuan have time to message his wife and inform her of the latest situation.

Alice was also very worried, but faced with irresistible forces, she was helpless.

The couple chatted for a while until the chauffeur was about to arrive, then they stopped talking.

Meng Xiaochuan smoothly got into the car and received a message from Pin Wan Na: "Where are you staying tonight?"

He explained the arrangement of the intelligent dedicated line and even snagged a picture of the "four dedicated AI calls" to prove he wasn’t making it up.

Pin Wan Na’s envy was evident: "The technology of Great Xia is so advanced, it’s truly a blessing to be a Great Xia Person."

"The fact that the official AI automatically booked a hotel as soon as flights were grounded" shook her greatly, making this stewardess desire Great Xia even more.

Pin Wan Na immediately sent a very suggestive message: "Mr. Meng, do you need me to accompany you to the hotel tonight?"

The stewardess even deliberately sent a picture of "black stockings and long legs."

Meng Xiaochuan almost lost his composure, but after looking out the window for a few moments, he politely declined: "Staff from the Diplomatic Mission will visit me tonight."

This wasn’t an excuse; the Diplomatic Mission did indeed call him earlier.

Pin Wan Na sent a teasing expression: "Are all Great Xia People so conservative? I just want to chat with you and learn about the customs of Great Xia."

Meng Xiaochuan didn’t buy it, not even the punctuation.

Just chatting?

If you really came over, who knows if chatting might lead to the bed.

This lecturer remains virtuous, not making such mistakes.

He gave a few indifferent replies and sent the beautiful stewardess away.

Putting down his phone, Meng Xiaochuan sighed inwardly: "No wonder there are many rumors online about Great Xia People having a harem abroad."

With the leverage of a Great Xia identity and a little more money in the pocket, playing like this truly isn’t too difficult.

An hour later.

In a high-end hotel room.

After having a rather sumptuous lunch, Meng Xiaochuan turned on the TV and waited.

The official had already issued an announcement that a press conference would be held at 1 PM Great Xia Time.

Given Great Xia’s enormous influence on Canglan Star today, journalists from all over the world would attend the press conference, and smaller media outlets didn’t even have the qualifications to enter.

Official media outlets from many countries would directly broadcast Great Xia’s press conference.

Meng Xiaochuan didn’t forget to chat with his wife: "Maybe a more intense cold wave is coming, which is why all global flights are grounded."

Not only has Antai Kingdom grounded flights nationwide, but countries everywhere are issuing grounding orders one after another.

Alice asked, "Why do you say that?"

Meng Xiaochuan explained: "Severe temperature drops often trigger strong convective weather, affecting flight safety, much like before the Age of Calamity, when every warm-up or cool-down would bring strong winds."

Alice replied: "Makes a lot of sense."

Just then.

The TV screen suddenly changed, displaying the scene of the press conference.

Hundreds of reporters could be seen setting up their long guns and cannons aimed at the podium in front.

The host was a familiar face, the Great Xia spokesperson for the global network meeting — Yu Changlong.

He briskly walked to the podium and smiled as he began speaking: "Everyone, it’s time, so let’s get started."

The hall instantly quieted down.

In a deep voice, Yu Changlong began the introduction: "In the past period, Canglan People have endured various calamities, terrifying natural disasters, and brutal wars."

As he spoke, clips played continuously on the big screen at the press conference.

One scene showed "streets littered with dried corpses," a horrifying sight.

This was in the city of Las in the Alini Duchy on the west coast of Yan Continent, where a sudden "sea ice mosquito disaster" had erupted.

In the early days of the Age of Calamity, a large number of Poisonous Mosquitoes appeared in all parts of Canglan Star, and tens of millions of civilians died from the kiss of the Poisonous Mosquitoes.

With the arrival of the cold wave disasters, the Poisonous Mosquitoes gradually disappeared.

No one expected that below the frozen sea on the relatively warm west coast of Yan Continent, countless Sea Ice Mosquitos had quietly emerged, a new species evolved from Poisonous Mosquitos.

Las City was unfortunately hit by an extremely massive swarm of Sea Ice Mosquitos.

In the late hours of the night half a month ago, Sea Ice Mosquito in the "trillions" silently broke through the ice surface and flocked to Las City in overwhelming numbers.

At daybreak, satellite images captured a "white cloud" hanging over the entire city.

This was a white cloud formed by countless snow-white Sea Ice Mosquitos.

Only a small number of Superpower Users managed to escape from Las City; the remaining over a million people were all drained dry by the Sea Ice Mosquitos.

Another scene on the screen showed "vast ice fog devouring the land," a spectacular sight.

This was a large-scale frost disaster that occurred in the Aurora Continent, and it was also the first large-scale frost disaster on Canglan Star.

The frost disaster covered an area exceeding 200,000 square kilometers, equivalent to the size of a province in Great Xia.

The frost disaster brought unimaginably low temperatures, with temperatures in the central area dropping to minus 120 degrees Celsius.

Besides forming a thick layer of frost on the ground, countless ice crystals appeared in the air, forming a unique extreme cold ice fog.

Two cities in the Asia-Oceania Union were unlucky to be within the frost disaster’s range.

Because the Asia-Oceania Union had hostile relations with Great Xia and was unwilling to pay for Great Xia’s rescue services, more than 1.6 million people died.

The screen also showed "tanks ablaze and streets turned into ruins."

This was the warfare in the Azik Alliance.

Nobody predicted that half a month ago, the Carmenians would suddenly invade the southern Azik Alliance under the pretext of "combating smuggling."

A large-scale war thus erupted.

However, upon careful consideration, this seemed inevitable.

Now that the Carmenians were in league with Demons, and the Demons required civilians as blood sacrifices for rituals, waging war allowed them to procure large sacrifice supplies from abroad without easily inciting the already intense internal conflicts within the Federation.

On the first day of the war, the Azik Alliance suffered devastating defeats, quickly losing 20% of its territory.

As expected, the Eastern Giant Dragon would not stand by idly, immediately announcing the acceptance of Azik Alliance into the Pioneer Alliance, and subsequently, Great Xia began heavily supporting the Azik Alliance, sending massive amounts of materials and personnel there.

The Azik People were no fools, naturally realizing what the Carmenians wanted, so they began to desperately resist, and the war was very intense.

Meng Xiaochuan was deeply moved.

He sincerely felt that Pin Wan Na’s statement of "being a Great Xia Person is too fortunate" was spot on.

Living in Great Xia, he felt peaceful days, and the Age of Calamity didn’t seem so frightening, but watching the disaster montage, he suddenly realized how dangerous the world was.

On the TV screen.

Yu Changlong gazed at the hundreds of reporters, slightly raising his voice: "Now, certain changes have occurred in the Primordial World, bringing Canglan People to a historical turning point."

A mild commotion stirred within the crowd.

Initially, everyone had various speculations about the so-called "big event," but few had expected it to involve the Primordial World.

After finishing the introduction, Yu Changlong gestured with his right hand, loudly declaring: "Next, we invite Mr. Spirit Crows to explain the situation for us."
