A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 190: District 10

The current situation is very special.

Almost everyone in Linjiang City is caught up in a wave of self-preservation, and in a simulation realm that covers the entire city, death could come at any moment.

The communication process went smoothly.

Without much effort, Erza’s small figure appeared on the Heart of the Dance.

Baiyu didn’t know what materials were used to make the Heart of the Dance or understand its principles, but it seemed unaffected in the simulation realm.

"The situation is very bad. I suggest you take refuge in the Spirit Realm and come back after the situation is resolved."

Impact within.

Erza, with her light green eyes flashing, proposed a very reliable plan.

Baiyu shook his head.

At this moment, the entrance of Lijiang Shelter must be strictly controlled. No one can escape until the last moment, because those who can enter the shelter are not ordinary people.

Running away first at this time, once discovered, would definitely cause panic.

After talking with Erza for a long time.

Baiyu put away the Heart of the Dance and began taking food from the kitchen to replenish his strength, as in this situation, he had to stay in peak condition at all times.

...

Outside the city.

On the wide road.

Heavy-duty trucks were parked by the roadside, helicopters hovered in the sky above, and armored vehicles formed a steel wall in front to completely surround the outskirts of Linjiang City.

From the outside.

The entire Linjiang City was enveloped in black mist, making it impossible to see what was happening inside.

Although the black mist was invisible, it could block everyone from entering.

Anyone.

Whether trying to break through by force or by any other means, they couldn’t enter Linjiang City.

Now Linjiang City is like a lone island on the sea.

"Has the temporary satellite communication base station been set up?"

Yuwen Ba frowned and looked grim as he gazed at Linjiang City, shrouded in black mist. As the prefect of Maple Leaf County, he had an unavoidable responsibility for an incident in such a large city.

"It’s been completed, and we are now attempting to contact the official organizations within Linjiang City."

One of his subordinates immediately replied.

Yuwen Ba nodded, and next to him were the deans of the two Wuda institutions, Lin Qingsong and An Ruyi. They happened to be with him when he arrived, so they came along.

"Prefect, this likely has an unavoidable connection with the simulation realm incident three years ago."

An Ruyi immediately thought of the Abyssal Ascetic Association.

Yuwen Ba said, "Regardless of how it was formed, what I want now is to understand the situation inside. If we can find a solution, I’m willing to attempt to break into the simulation realm myself."

The two stopped talking.

Breaking into the simulation realm physically is not an easy task.

If the internal problem of Linjiang City can be solved, naturally, they would address it internally, but now there’s no news from inside.

Neither good news nor bad news.

The complete communication breakdown was the most distressing.

While a group outside the city was busy, Pang Fei inside the city was so worried that he was losing hair. All sorts of aberration events were occurring, with casualties increasing geometrically.

Aberration.

Any creature exposed to the Black Moon for a long time would experience aberrations.

Not only that.

Even plants began to change.

Under the light of the Black Moon, some plants became more hideous and terrifying, twisted and dangerous, starting to hunt and devour any living thing nearby.

In just half a day.

The files on Pang Fei’s desk piled up into a small mountain.

"The most important thing is the source. The Black Moon originally wouldn’t be so destructive, at most planting a Black Moon Mark on some people, developing new Black Moon Apostles.

But now.

As long as it’s exposed to the Black Moon’s light, aberration can occur.

This is completely inconsistent with the usual Black Moon events.

And for such a change to occur, it’s clear that Kaz is the one behind it.

"Kaz must be found, and quickly."

Pang Fei, with bloodshot eyes, was about to assign more people to search the North District when suddenly the satellite phone on the desk crackled.

"This is Zenith City, we are attempting to restore basic communications. If you receive this, please respond. Repeating, this is Zenith City..."

A man’s voice came from the phone.

Pang Fei looked delighted.

He hurriedly connected the phone and communicated the situation in the city with the staff in Zenith City. However, just a few words were exchanged before a coarse voice came from the other end of the satellite phone:

"I am Yuwen Ba, Prefect of Maple Leaf County."

"Now I need to know the actual situation inside Linjiang City.

You must prioritize ensuring social order and safety, conducting as much investigation into this simulation realm as possible, and obtaining more detailed information.

Don’t be afraid, we are now trying to break through this barrier outside Linjiang City. Any needs you have, you can tell us."

Yuwen Ba spoke rapidly.

No one knew if the satellite phone would suddenly disconnect, so while there was a chance to communicate, every moment had to be seized.

Upon hearing this, Pang Fei wasted no time and directly reported the situation inside to Yuwen Ba.

With the establishment of the temporary satellite base station, the satellite phone finally seemed usable in the simulation realm, and the two of them talked for a full half hour without any disconnection.

The satellite phones of the remaining people also resumed normal functions.

This was a good thing.

In such a situation, restoring communication first is crucial to accurately understand what is happening and thus formulate a response to any unexpected events.

After hanging up the call with Yuwen Ba.

Pang Fei started calling the search teams one by one. He knew that these people were the key to resolving the problem; without finding Kaz, anything else was pointless.

"I’ve already checked First Street, no major issues."

From the satellite phone.

Qiong Jiu’s voice came through.

Four search teams, each responsible for three main streets, was the fastest search plan. Now, the team led by Qiong Jiu was just checking the first street.

Pang Fei asked each one in turn.

The core members of all four teams had satellite phones, making contact at this moment very effortless.

"Some unexpected changes occurred in the Tenth District."

At this time, Dong Chunsheng said over the phone.

This Master from Lijiang Shelter didn’t return to the Spirit Realm’s shelter right after the incident.

He once gave an exchange lecture to a group of students in Linjiang.

He is a martial artist of considerable repute.

He was responsible for Streets 10 to 12.

At this moment, Dong Chunsheng stood on the tenth street, the entire street deserted, with black mist swirling around, and in the thick black mist in the distance, huge black silhouettes moved.

These black silhouettes looked similar to humans.

But they were exceptionally tall.

Dong Chunsheng wasn’t sure if these creatures truly existed or were just hallucinations?

While talking to Pang Fei on the phone, he continued leading his team to search the streets. At this moment, retreating was not an option. After so many years in the shelter, he had faced all kinds of crises.

A group of five or six people walked slowly, gradually entering the black mist and disappearing from sight.

The sound of the satellite phone hitting the ground rang clearly on the street.
