The system was set three years in advance, but the universal deities still hadn't arrived.

Chapter 623 The First Wave of Cataclysm in the Future

Li Jianye and Zhou Wan looked shocked after hearing Zeng Shen's words.

But soon.

The two seemed to have thought of something, and their faces quickly became covered with a thick and solidified frost, making it clear that they had become depressed and uneasy.

Li Jianye's hand gripping the chopsticks tightened unconsciously, his knuckles gradually turning white, as if he were recalling something.

Zhou Wan instinctively covered her mouth, her eyes first flashing with intense shock, then quickly filled with deep worry and fear.

They exchanged a quick glance, and in each other's eyes, they clearly saw the same fear.

Because they know very well that everything in the short drama "The Revival of the Gods" is true.

The "early dramatic changes" depicted in that short drama will undoubtedly bring about a terrifying first wave of catastrophe to Earth.

After all, at that time, humans will possess divinity, and all life on Earth will undergo a violent mutation.

Subsequently, most of these mutated creatures will become beasts, and some will become intelligent races.

They will be like time bombs, quietly forming creatures with vastly different ecosystems and terrifyingly fast evolutionary speeds in every corner of the Earth.

At the same time, the microscopic ecosystem on Earth will form closed loops, creating small worlds that are invisible to the naked eye.

The creatures born in these smaller worlds are even more ferocious and terrifying than the mutated creatures on Earth. Some of these smaller worlds even open portals to Earth, invading it and hunting down humans with divine abilities...

Li Jianye and Zhou Wan recalled the short drama that appeared on the screen during the board meeting that afternoon, a scene that was about to appear on Earth.

At this moment, the two couldn't help but worry about their daughter's future safety.

"Dad, Mom!"

Li Yuqing keenly sensed the fear in her parents' eyes. She called out softly, her voice gentle yet filled with unwavering determination.

Followed by.

She reached out and gently placed her hand on Zhou Wan's slightly cool hand, trying to dispel the fear in her mother's heart with her warmth.

Zhou Wan felt the warmth from her daughter's palm and, suppressing her worry, said:

"I am fine."

Li Yuqing nodded slightly, then looked at her father, Li Jianye, and said, "Dad, Mom, you don't need to worry about anything. Just like Zeng Shen said, he has reached a consensus with the Great Xia government and is making very thorough preparations. He has comprehensive solutions for both the mutations of Blue Star creatures and the threats brought by the small world."

Speaking of it.

A hint of pride shone on her face as she continued, "Moreover, I am no longer the weak Li Yuqing I once was. Remember when I left the provincial capital to return to Jinhai? Actually, Zeng Shen had already bestowed upon me the extraordinary abilities of the vampire race back then. Now, I can clearly feel myself becoming stronger and more agile. I can not only keenly sense danger, but I have also mastered unique combat skills. I am capable enough to protect myself, and I can also protect you, to cope with the first wave of calamity in the future."

"You've become a vampire!" Li Jianye and Zhou Wan were both shocked when they heard their daughter's words.

"Yes, but don't worry, they're the direct vampires from the short drama, not the lower kind that live off blood," Li Yuqing immediately reassured them.

Upon hearing this, Li Jianye and Zhou Wan's expressions softened slightly, but the worry in their eyes had not completely faded.

Immediately afterwards, the two turned their gazes to Zeng Shen, their eyes filled with both inquiry and a hint of pleading.

Zeng Shen calmly met his gaze, his voice steady and powerful: "Uncle Li, Aunt Zhou, what Yuqing said is true. In the face of disaster, panic is useless. Only by making full preparations and possessing great strength can we bring ourselves a chance to survive."

"Moreover, the 'Longshen New City' built by the Longshen Group, which I mentioned earlier, will be one of the core safe urban areas for future disaster response."

"A comprehensive defense system will be established there, with stable resources and strong support."

"At the critical moment before the actual catastrophe, I will send someone to pick you up and move you to the new city in advance. It will be the safest place on Earth."

Done.

Seeing the utterly shocked expressions on the couple's faces, Zeng Shen offered an even more impactful option: "Furthermore, if you wish, you don't have to wait until danger strikes to seek protection. I can grant you the same extraordinary abilities of the vampire race as Yuqing right now. This will give you a far greater ability to protect yourself than others of the same level during the early stages of your divine awakening, and your lifespan, physique, and sensory abilities will far surpass those of ordinary people. Just like Yuqing, you will be able to adapt to and cope with the impending upheaval much faster during the early stages of your awakening."

"Ah! We can have it ahead of time too!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jianye and Zhou Wan felt as if a huge boulder had been thrown into a calm lake, instantly creating ripples in their hearts.

After all, immortality and power are things that so many people dream of their whole lives! Although he appears in the form of a legendary "vampire," having the power he controls allows him to greatly dispel the sense of helplessness brought about by unknown calamities when facing them.

After figuring this out, a strong light instantly shone in Li Jianye and Zhou Wan's eyes. Shock replaced their worry once again, and this time, the shock was mixed with an unbelievable longing and excitement.

After all, the promise of a safe zone had already tempted them greatly.

At this moment, the temptation of gaining extraordinary abilities ahead of time made their hearts race, as if an invisible force was pulling them along.

Silence fell in the restaurant again, but this time it was filled with contemplation and tension. Li Jianye and Zhou Wan exchanged another glance.

Without a word, their years of tacit understanding allowed them to see the answer in each other's eyes.

"Dad? Mom?" Li Yuqing called softly, her voice filled with encouragement and expectation.

Hearing their daughter's call, Li Jianye and Zhou Wan took a deep breath, nodded heavily, and looked at Zeng Shen, saying, "Okay! We'll follow your arrangements!"

Zhou Wan nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, Zeng Shen, we are willing! For Xiaoyu, and for our family, we must become stronger!"

Upon hearing her parents' reply, Li Yuqing smiled with immense joy, picked up a wine glass, and said, "Dad, Mom, you made the best decision of your lives. Cheers!"

"That's right, cheers!"

Zeng Shen and Li Jianye, Zhou Wan also picked up her wine glass and said.

boom…

The wine glasses clinked together, making a soft, loud sound.

After a glass of wine, the atmosphere at dinner gradually became much lighter, but most of the conversation revolved around the content of the short drama "The Revival of All Gods".

When they had almost finished their wine and dinner, Zhou Wan looked at Zeng Shen with the concern typical of an elder: "Shen...we plan to go to Jinhai after we finish handing over the company matters in the next few days. Are your parents free next weekend? We'd like to invite them to dinner together."

“Sure, I’ll arrange it when I’m free,” Zeng Shen replied immediately.
