"Clearly, mysterious forces had made a move."
In a conference room within the Ancient Culture Research and Analysis Archives' office area, several people in charge had received the relevant data on the three major river systems.
"An inexplicable, bizarre acceleration. None of the experts involved could find the cause, and the few hypotheses they proposed were all rather absurd."
"It's very similar to what happened with the Shu Province plane, the southwestern rainfall, the eastern typhoon, and the Mian Bei stele."
"We still can't be sure, can we? At least this time isn't as obvious as the previous incidents. Several senior professors are still conducting field investigations."
"How much more obvious does it need to be? Do they have to show us fire clouds shaped like a phoenix?"
"Speaking of phoenixes, don't forget the strange incident in Sea City where a fire suddenly went out."
"I remember. I also read the analysis report from the fire department. Something about powerful winds pulling away the air to extinguish the flames, powerful winds suppressing the blaze in an instant, a once-in-a-century atmospheric turbulence phenomenon... aren't they just fooling people?"
"What else do you expect them to do? Invite the production crew of 'Approaching Science' to investigate?"
"Better not. I'm afraid the crew might actually uncover the truth."
"Hahaha..."
"Cough, cough. We've gone off topic."
"Mhm, mhm!"
After chatting idly off topic for a while, they pulled the conversation back.
"Assuming—assuming this really was the work of mysterious forces, then they've actually exposed quite a lot of information."
"Indeed. Their numbers, their strength, and the range over which they can exert that strength have all been revealed."
"The three major river systems mean at least three people."
"The Pearl River side is the strongest. Accelerated flow appeared throughout more than two thousand kilometers
