"Witchcraft!?"
The Black man in the blue short-sleeved T-shirt stared fixedly at the fireball. He saw no gas device and no flammable material. It seemed to be floating there naturally, and he could even feel waves of heat rushing toward his face. This wasn't an illusion!
With his own knowledge and experience, he couldn't find any scientific explanation at all.
The corner of his mouth twitched. He drew a deep breath and said, "What's this about the Demon King? Why have I never heard of him?"
"Don't you think something is very wrong with Somalia, or even the northwestern corner of the entire African Continent?"
Li Bai clenched his left hand. With a soft bang, the fireball turned into a wisp of pale white smoke and vanished into thin air, just as it had appeared, as though it had never existed.
"Something wrong? It seems... it seems there is something a little off?"
The Black man in the blue short-sleeved T-shirt instinctively searched through his memories.
War, locust plagues, disease, and... it seemed like it hadn't rained in a long time. At this time of year in previous years, the Somali region should have been in its rainy season. Yet now, he hadn't seen even a single drop of rain.
The Barnum Effect formed through suggestion would naturally guide Li Bai's intended line of inducement. That fireball had actually been a suggestion.
Li Bai continued patiently guiding him. "Because we've discovered the source of the disasters: the Demon King who is about to awaken. He brought all these bad things—the natural and man-made disasters."
"Is that so?"
The Black man in the blue short-sleeved T-shirt began to believe him despite his doubts. He seemed to be somewhat persuaded.
A fool was born every minute. That saying came from psychology.
