He became the White-Haired Evil God after wearing the Seven Curses Rings.

Blue Star.

An underground base somewhere.

A large number of people moved around in the space, and in no time, batches of documents with various messy information were placed on the conference table.

Tang Ning sat in a small corner of the conference table. Although she appeared calm and composed on the surface, she was actually panicking inside.

Her position was at most that of the deputy director of the Special Security Bureau, which meant she had some status, but not much.

Everyone sitting here looks impressive, but she can't recognize a single one of them—all mysterious big shots.

She wasn't actually very familiar with even the bureau chief, whom she knew best.

She was able to sneak in here thanks to her connection with Yu Yunsheng and the others.

"..."

After an unknown amount of time, an elderly man sitting at the head of the table suddenly spoke.

"Little Ning..."

"exist!"

Tang Ning suddenly straightened her back.

Facing the mysterious bigwig who seemed to be the boss of all those present, Tang Ning dared not show the slightest negligence.

At the same time, she was frantically trying to guess the old man's identity.

There's not even a sign; even if she wanted to address me by my job title, she wouldn't know how…

"Is the information you brought back... accurate?"

The old man tapped on a document.

"For example...this one."

Tang Ning looked closely and realized that it referred to "theories about future disasters on Earth".

She obtained that thing within the Wheel of Fortune.

She only glanced at it briefly, but was startled by the first disaster shown on it, and without thinking, she made a copy.

Is the other party now questioning the authenticity of this document?

Right.

After all, any of the disasters mentioned above were terrifying. Putting everything else aside, she really wanted to know what a 1.2-kilometer-long flood was.

It's worth noting that they generally don't refer to tsunamis in apocalyptic movies as floods.

After thinking for a moment, Tang Ning finally nodded.

Before she brought it over, she had asked Yu Yunsheng to look through the document and received the assessment that "this should be genuine".

Since Yu Yunsheng thinks it must be true, then this document is probably genuine.

Just as Tang Ning was preparing to face the series of questions that followed, she suddenly saw the old man nod, then project the document onto the screen and begin discussing with the others how to prevent these five disasters.

Even after leaving the meeting room, Tang Ning was still recalling what had just happened.

"Um... Chief, what exactly is that old man's identity? And... why did he believe everything I said was true just because I nodded?"

In response to Tang Ning's question, the director of the Special Security Bureau suddenly stopped and turned to look at her.

"I'm not very familiar with that person's identity either. I know that when I first joined the Special Security Bureau ten years ago, he was already our leader. We usually called him..."

The bureau chief glanced down at Tang Ning.

"Never mind, just call him the big boss."

Upon hearing this answer, Tang Ning's face was filled with question marks.

"Huh? What do you mean... Wait, Chief, what did you just say? You joined here ten years ago? Wasn't this place only recently established...?"

"no."

The bureau chief shook his head.

"To put it another way, the invasion of Earth by supernatural forces has been going on for quite some time now; it's even become a regular occurrence."

"As far as I know, this underground base was built at least thirty years ago."

"We generally refer to humans who possess extraordinary powers and are loyal to the organization as Awakened, and others... are called Abnormal."

"The Awakened Ones and the Abnormal had always been at a disadvantage in their struggle against the Abnormal, until a young girl arrived three years ago and things began to turn around."

As he spoke, the director opened his phone, flipped through a few pages, and showed Tang Ning a... wanted poster?

Before Tang Ning could react, the director spoke up.

"Song Qing, a human girl from another world, eighteen years old, actual age unknown."

"Although she is our police department's number one enemy, we haven't really issued any arrest warrants for her because she brought us a complete body-refining system three years ago. So don't investigate her privately anymore, or keep talking about how the police department is too busy to investigate her."

Upon hearing this, Tang Ning scratched her head awkwardly.

"So you knew all about my private actions, huh? No wonder you're the bureau chief..."

"But isn't the real reason we're not hunting her down simply because none of us can beat her?"

The bureau chief closed his eyes in resignation.

"You know that already, why are you still asking..."

The air suddenly became quiet.

A moment later, the director turned around and said as he walked away.

"However, you don't need to worry too much. Due to the appearance of the Wheel of Fate, we have a new route for the birth of awakened beings. Moreover, the efficiency and quality of this route are far greater than all the previous plans. It's not too late to settle scores with that girl after we have increased our strength."

Tang Ning followed behind the bureau chief and asked, somewhat puzzled.

"In that case... well, according to what you said before, should we still try to find out the actual address of this game company?"

The bureau chief suddenly stopped.

He turned his head and looked at Tang Ning with hostility.

"Are you fucking stubborn, or are you planning to drag me down with you so you can become the director yourself after something goes wrong?"

"No, no, I absolutely didn't mean that!"

As she spoke, Tang Ning hurriedly waved her hand and followed the bureau chief out of the underground base.

……

Meanwhile, in the conference room.

The old man from before is still here, but now only a researcher from the research department is by his side.

"Old Tang, we have finished sorting out all the alchemical technologies that were transmitted back from the Wheel of Fate. We have finally come to the conclusion that no matter how consistent the materials and procedures are, the alchemical technologies will not work if the operator is not a player with the profession of alchemist."

"Therefore, if we want to apply those alchemical technologies to the next disaster prevention and control, we need an extremely large number of alchemist players to assist us, and considering the urgency of the situation, the more the better."

Upon hearing this, the elderly man, referred to as Old Tang, nodded.

"I understand. I started the work of popularizing the Wheel of Fortune a month ago. I believe that it won't be long before the public accepts this fact and begins to inject fresh blood into the organization."

Faced with Professor Tang's explanation, the researchers suddenly became somewhat worried.

"Even if the public can accept this fact, there are so many players who have awakened their powers, and their backgrounds are so diverse. Won't it cause problems within the organization...?"

At this moment, Old Tang shook his head.

"They are all young people, and when faced with matters of principle, these are the ones who understand best what should and should not be done. Especially on issues of life and death, the cohesion they can unleash is far stronger than we old folks imagine."

"We only need to provide appropriate guidance. As for what will happen after the disaster... well, let's get through this disaster first."

"At least... I believe in them."
