Cheng Yu turned around and looked at the newcomer.
He raised an eyebrow slightly.
"You seem to have run into trouble, Xiaolei."
Nie Xiaolei was on the verge of breaking down. In the space of a single day, the supernatural had vanished, and the committee that once governed all of human society had immediately come under a swift, brutal assault.
Former government leaders from across the world had launched coups almost simultaneously.
Stripped of its supernatural power, the committee had been dismantled in an instant.
The Commissioner's whereabouts were unknown as well.
As the sole survivor of the "suspected" incident that had caused the supernatural to disappear,
Nie Xiaolei had been taken into custody immediately.
Once she learned all this on the way, Nie Xiaolei had no time for grief or anger. She understood better than anyone how terrifying the being before her was-someone who had destroyed the supernatural age with a casual gesture.
So when Nie Xiaolei was taken into a secret room to be questioned by those in power, she held nothing back.
Unfortunately, they seemed to doubt her account.
After all, judging by the available information, the humanoid supernatural being Nie Xiaolei described as far beyond a "god" had displayed almost nothing "incomprehensible." He seemed virtually indistinguishable from an ordinary person.
They preferred to believe that Nie Xiaolei was using this trick to buy time for the committee to strike back.
Yet they could not deny that the supernatural items in their possession had indeed lost their supernatural properties, seemingly reverting to their original nature.
So, just in case, they decided to prepare for both possibilities.
That meant making contact with the humanoid supernatural being Nie Xiaolei claimed was far beyond a "god."
They also wanted to see whether this loss of supernatural properties had happened naturally
