"But..."
Bang bang bang!
Zhao Yonggang slammed his hand on the table a few times, glaring angrily at the crowd below.
"What I want to make clear to you is that the speed at which the two realms overlap is constantly accelerating."
"From just a few incidents of Calamity Beast a year globally ten years ago, our country alone now sees thousands every year, and that doesn't even include the Calamity Beast that have been trapped in the mountains!"
"If we include those, there are at least tens of thousands of Calamity Beast appearing in our country alone each year, and at least one hundred thousand worldwide!"
"From just a few ten years ago to hundreds of thousands now, the number of Calamity Beast appearing each year is increasing several times over!"
"If prices continue to rise at this rate, do you know what kind of situation we'll face in the future?"
"Let me tell you, in some big cities now, the number of Calamity Beast incidents has increased from a stable two or occasionally three last year to a stable three or occasionally four, and some cities are even seeing five Calamity Beast incidents in a single month!"
The future that lies ahead of us is definitely not a very optimistic one!!!
Zhao Yonggang spoke louder and louder, until he was almost shouting.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Yonggang gasped for breath on the stage, his eyes fixed on the audience below.
The air seemed to freeze; no one whispered, no chairs moved, and even breathing became barely audible.
The hall, which held hundreds of people, seemed to have been muted, leaving only a suffocating silence.
Shen Heng lowered his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and felt a heaviness in his heart.
Although he had considered this issue before based on the situation of the Calamity Beast in Linhai City, this was the first time he had faced the real data directly, and...
Has a city already seen five incidents of Calamity Beast in a single month...?
Zhao Yonggang picked up his cup, took a sip to calm himself, and then continued:
"Therefore, with the pace of overlap between the two realms accelerating, although there haven't been any Fifth Tier Calamity Beast for a long time, headquarters is still sticking to its current policy."
"That is, to concentrate resources on cultivating high-level ability users in order to deal with the possible arrival of high-level Calamity Beast!"
"Whether you agree with this policy or not, headquarters will not adjust it because of you."
After the words were spoken, some nodded, some remained silent, but at least no one objected.
Zhao Yonggang turned his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the crowd below, and said in a softer tone:
"However, don't say that our headquarters doesn't care about you at all. After discussion, we've decided to set up a training camp next year."
"Training camp?" Everyone looked at Zhao Yonggang with suspicion.
Zhao Yonggang nodded. "Yes, this training camp is mainly for talented individuals from various local Supervision Bureau. Members are nominated by the local team leaders, and the class will officially begin once there are 30 participants. We will arrange instructors to provide instruction for three months."
"What kind of teaching?" someone asked.
"Practical experience, training, and how to deal with various situations!"
Zhao Yonggang paused as he spoke, glancing at the people sitting on either side of him.
To his left, Li Daoyi was casually sitting cross-legged on a conference chair, his worn-out cloth shoes peeking out from under his Daoist robe, occasionally tapping the floor with the tips of his shoes to keep time.
On the right, Jiang Xingwei sat upright, his hands clasped on the table, his face cold.
Zhao Yonggang looked down at the crowd and continued:
"At that time, Daoist Master Li and Jiang Xingwei will occasionally participate in the teaching process."
After the meeting.
Shen Heng watched Fang Ran walk Fang Ran Cao Mingyu and the others.
Gu Lingxuan also watched Fang Ran's movements. She turned to look at Shen Heng and asked calmly:
What did that guy say in the past?
"Say thank you, and then say you'll do your best to compensate for the lost points!" Shen Heng turned and glanced at Gu Lingxuan.
Gu Lingxuan pouted, "What about Cao Mingyu?"
"No need, that was his own decision!" Shen Heng replied.
"Well, I knew it!"
Gu Lingxuan yawned as if she had lost interest, then turned to look at Shen Heng and said:
"By the way, you're going to the training camp, right?"
Shen Heng pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head.
I shouldn't go!
"Oh? You're not going?"
Gu Lingxuan looked at Shen Heng with some surprise.
In her opinion, if Shen Heng went to the training camp, his growth rate would be faster.
Based on her current understanding of Shen Heng, he should actually go.
"Three months is not enough time to gain any points besides learning how to fight and grow stronger. It's not very friendly to me!" Shen Heng said, explaining why he didn't want to go.
"What, are you short of points?" Gu Lingxuan asked, somewhat puzzled.
"I wouldn't say it's a huge shortage, but there is indeed a shortfall right now!" Shen Heng said.
Gu Lingxuan nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this, but did not ask any further questions.
She turned her head to look at the clock on the wall, then waved her hand and said:
"Alright, I'm leaving now!"
Shen Heng nodded slightly. He also checked the time: 10:08.
The meeting lasted less than an hour, mainly covering the products mentioned earlier and the training camp later. Afterwards, they discussed the situation in various regions and what to be careful about when facing the Calamity Beast, and then it ended.
Shen Heng planned out the rest of the trip.
"It's still early. I'll go back to the Lakeside Center to cultivate for a bit, then have lunch. This afternoon I'll come over to learn how to set up Spirit-Gathering Array, and then I can go back tomorrow!"
afternoon.
In a spacious area at the headquarters of the Supervision Bureau.
Two or three hundred people were scattered around the arena, each with six Origin Power Crystal and several willow-like objects in front of them.
At the very front, Li Daoyi was sitting on a platform, one leg crossed steadily, the other hanging naturally along the edge of the platform.
Six Origin Power Crystal floated steadily in mid-air in front of him.
He began to explain.
" The Spirit-Gathering Array is simple in some ways, and difficult in others, but unless you're completely stupid, half a day should be enough for you to learn it."
"Simply put, it's about arranging the Spirit-Gathering Array in the way I do."
"Three are on the outside, and three are on the inside."
"The reason for using three is to create a difference in the concentration of Origin Power."
"Three triangles are used on the outside because triangles are stable!"
Shen Heng: "..."
Is theory this modern now...?
Li Daoyi continued on stage:
"The outermost space, where we usually live, has the thinnest Origin Power."
"Then the three Origin Power Crystal on the periphery flowed, forming an environment relatively rich in Origin Power."
Finally, the three innermost Origin Power Crystal interacted, forming an environment with an even higher concentration of Origin Power.
"In this way, through gradual progression, the effect of guiding external Origin Power in was finally achieved!"
Shen Heng lowered his head slightly, his gaze falling on the six Origin Power Crystal (hereinafter referred to as Origin Crystal ) and the willow branches placed in front of him.
Now that we know the function of the Origin Crystal, what is the willow branch...?
