Reincarnation space, but the style is wrong

Chapter 234: Chaos

The purple mist rose again, and the news that the association's troops and the Forging Hammer Company's Fourth Army were completely annihilated was reported back. The association's top leaders lowered their heads in fear, not daring to look at the one-eyed old man who exuded a negative aura.

Next to the old man stood three company representatives. The one from the Forging Hammer Company had a gloomy face, while the other two had no expression on their faces.

"This operation has failed. The purple mist shielding device you developed is completely ineffective."

The old man broke the silence, looked at the representative of the Forging Hammer with his one eye, and said in a bad tone: "Moreover, the elite troops you sent out did not play the role they should have, and all of them were defeated in Xuanjun Temple."

"This was our negligence." The representative of the Forging Hammer admitted this, and then turned the subject to point the finger at the two people from the All-Seeing Eye and Universal Technology, "But the intelligence work and analysis of the purple mist were not done well, and the All-Seeing Eye and Universal Technology are also responsible."

Xiangbei raised an eyebrow. Although he had expected this, he still felt unhappy when the other party said it.

"In fact, being able to analyze those data from the pitifully rare purple haze samples is already a great achievement for our researchers."

He put the blame back on the Forging Hammer Company and said sarcastically, "If the company responsible for collecting purple mist samples had collected more, the data we analyzed would have been more complete, and maybe things wouldn't have turned out like this today."

The forging hammer representative who had been teased by him had an ugly look on his face, but he couldn't get angry so he could only glare at him fiercely.

The representative of the All-Seeing Eye did not react as strongly as Xiang Bei. He maintained a calm tone and said:
"We have also done our best to give you all the information we could gather."

After that, silence enveloped the room again, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it made people breathless.

In this oppressive atmosphere, a soft and cute voice suddenly sounded, breaking the current silence.

"Um, have you seen where Mary went?"

A strange creature with blood-colored stripes on its body and the size of a small dog floated into the room, blinking its innocent big eyes.

This is the blood elf, the elf that has signed a contract with Mary.

"Mary disappeared after entering the foggy area, and we couldn't find any trace of her." The old man said truthfully.

"Oh? That's a pity. The contract I signed with her suddenly lost its effectiveness not long ago." The Blood Elf shook his head with a lazy tone.

Mary was the most talented magical girl it had ever seen, no doubt about it, but it was a pity that such a talent still died.

The Blood Elf shook his head regretfully and was about to turn and leave.

Before leaving, it thought of something and added:
"You have been targeting that guy named Xuanjun recently, right? I advise you to be careful. That guy is a powerful being from the Sea of ​​Origin. His status is probably equal to that of the world."

After it finished speaking, it floated away on its own, ignoring the questions from the people behind it.

Looking at its receding back, the old man opened his mouth, but swallowed the words that were half spoken.

"Please temporarily stop all actions against Xuanjun Temple. The world is no longer something that the association and the three companies can solve together."

"Then, how should we deal with those strange lives that appear around Mount Namu?" asked a staff officer.

The old man turned his eyes to the screen, on which was a blurred mosaic picture of a blue humanoid creature.

Even if they are just pictures and blurred, these humanoid creatures are still creepy.

"It's like a natural enemy that specifically targets humans."

Xiangbei was also looking at the picture above. Even he had to admit that the blue life forms in it were a bit scary. It must be another trick played by his beloved chairman.

"We call this blue unknown entity a Time Aberration," the All-Seeing Eye representative explained. "They are strange life forms that appeared at the foot of Mount Mu after the purple mist disappeared again. They will cause everything they pass by to decay. If a person comes into contact with them, they will also age instantly."

"If they hadn't only been active around Mushan, the entire city would have been turned into a dead city. What's more terrifying is that our time travel has no effect on anything that has been decayed by them." After listening to his analysis, the old man felt tired again.

This is another existence that ignores time reversal. Ever since the association and Xuan Jun came into conflict, the existence that was originally rare to see has become as common as cabbages. He has seen quite a few of them in just one week.

"Can time aberrations be physically eliminated?"

"No, or rather, we have tried most methods and are unable to physically erase them. Only time-related methods can cause temporary interference to them."

When everyone was at a loss, Xiang Bei stepped forward at the right time and volunteered: "Leave it to us. Huanyu Technology has the corresponding means."

The old man glanced at him, and seeing that no one had any objection, he agreed to his request and handed this hot potato to Universal Technology, which was willing to take over.

The association calmed down again. The large number of casualties and the death of three section chiefs created an internal power vacuum.

Changes occurred within the association, and some ambitious members seized the opportunity to climb up. External forces that had long been coveting the opportunity also intervened.

In this way, the association's already limited autonomy was once again severely weakened, and the president's prestige gradually could not suppress the voices of opposition below.

Inside Xuanjun Temple, Chen Xingzhi nodded after hearing the news brought back by Cheng Yingying and the others.

Some time ago, they had followed his instructions and greeted each of the companies and chaebols on the list one by one.

Before long, this matter will further ferment, those forces that were originally watching the show from the sidelines will be dragged into it, the contradiction will further intensify, and the whole world will be in chaos.

"The world has been dead for too long, and some changes need to be made. Although you have done a good job, it is not enough."

Those truly leading companies have not suffered any serious losses, and they will not go down easily unless Chen Xingzhi personally wakes them up.

And this was just what he wanted.

An avatar has already set off, heading towards the headquarters of a leading company.

If major companies and chaebols are chess players, then the Modern Consortium is undoubtedly the chess player among chess players. Its power is far greater than that of ordinary chess players.

If the Modern Consortium is determined, it can even easily bankrupt other chess players. It can be said that it is the undisputed first-tier force.

Chen Xingzhi stood at the entrance of the headquarters of this force, the Modern Building, looking up at the towering building in front of him, and admired the exquisiteness of human engineering architecture.

I moved my eyes upwards to look at the sky, and just then the sun was blocked by the building.

"The light of the star has shone on it for too long," Chen Xingzhi stretched out his hand towards the sun and shook it from a distance, "but it will never see this light of enlightenment again."

He clenched his fists, and then darkness fell.

A corner of the virtual world was revealed to the world, covering the sky and swallowing up all the light from the distant stars.

At first, people thought it was just a sudden solar eclipse, but as purple mist rose from the dark sky, a bad feeling crept into everyone's heart.

The alarm sounded heart-wrenchingly, and it was of the highest standard, representing the arrival of a doomsday-level monster.

Everyone was rushing to the shelter, only Chen Xingzhi was walking against the flow of people towards the modern building.

Everyone automatically ignored him, treating him as if he didn't exist, but when passing by him, they would make way for him in a trance.

He divided the flow of people in this way, walked in the opposite direction, and entered the modern building.
