Chapter 424 Meeting
Earth Star, China, the Imperial Capital.
Somewhere in the first ring, Lu Qi walked out of a courtyard, said goodbye to his parents, and drove a car slowly into the street.
Fortunately, there was no traffic jam. Half an hour later, the car arrived in front of a high-rise building smoothly.
After showing a certificate to the security guard, Lu Qi successfully entered this seemingly ordinary building, which was actually full of surveillance and secret sentries.
As the saying goes, small hidden in the wild, medium hidden in the city, and big hidden in the court.
No one would have thought that this high-rise building located in the downtown area is the headquarters of an important organization.
Then Lu Qi, holding the certificate, easily passed the inspections one by one, entered an elevator leading to the underground, and came to a position more than 400 meters underground.
The underground space is very wide and bright. Lu Qi's vision suddenly became clear as soon as he stepped out of the elevator.
"Hello, Mr. Lu!" Colleagues along the way greeted him from time to time, and Lu Qi also smiled and nodded in response.
A moment later, Lu Qi, who had worked here for several months, came to a laboratory with ease.
There were several lab workers in white coats busy in the lab, constantly measuring and checking a girl in the room, recording all the experimental data.
The girl was lying on the test bench, watching expressionlessly as the lab worker drew another tube of blood from her. Seeing Lu Qi appear, she sat up happily.
"Master, you are finally here. If you don't come again, your disciple will be dissected by these weirdos!"
The words the girl said were clearly not Chinese, nor did they belong to any other language recorded on Earth, but the strange thing was that everyone in the lab could understand what she meant.
A middle-aged researcher smiled and said, "Miss Lin, you are joking. You are a friend of our China. How could we dissect you?
Besides, we dare not dissect humans, which is an inhumane act. We just take some of your hair and blood for testing."
As the first alien creature ever seen, these researchers were naturally very curious and wanted to know whether there was any difference between alien creatures and Earth humans in terms of body structure, basic elements, biological genes, etc.
Just as they expected, after these days of research and measurement, they found that the humans in the Eternal Realm and the humans on Earth were indeed somewhat different in terms of genes.
If you don't look at their appearance, they are completely two species, just like the difference between gorillas and monkeys.
Lu Qi calmed his apprentice's emotions for a while, and told her to cooperate with the researchers here at ease, and no one dared to hurt her.
Then he left the laboratory and walked in another direction.
"Sorry, I'm late." Looking at the already full conference room, Lu Qi smiled and walked to his seat.
The head of the Extraordinary Response Bureau nodded, looked at the dozen people in front of him and said: "Since everyone is here, let's start the meeting.
Everyone, please report the research results of various departments in the field of spiritual energy recovery during this period of time."
The Extraordinary Response Bureau is a newly established departmental organization that has gathered a large number of outstanding researchers in China in order to respond to various events that have occurred since the arrival of spiritual energy recovery, as well as... the alien world that may invade Earth in the future!
"In that case, our Extraordinary Environment Research Department will report first." A middle-aged man sitting next to the director stood up and said.
The big screen was turned on, and the data obtained from the research during this period were displayed in front of the director of the Extraordinary Bureau and Lu Qi and others.
"Everyone knows that half a year ago, Earth suddenly set off a powerful energy tide. This energy is what Mr. Lu Qi and several returnees called spiritual energy."
The director of the Extraordinary Bureau and others nodded. At that time, the spiritual energy tide that swept the world had a huge impact on the entire human society.
When the institutions of various countries first noticed this powerful energy, they thought that a cosmic disaster had occurred and that the energy had exploded, and Earth would be completely destroyed. In the end, it was just a false alarm.
Even this spiritual energy tide benefited human society. Countless people with diseases directly recovered their health, and all diseases disappeared;
The physical fitness of those without diseases also improved a lot, and even showed a trace of rejuvenation in their bodies, and they were a few years younger.
This directly caused all hospitals in various countries on Earth to become empty in the past few months, and not many people went to see a doctor.
"According to the instrument detection, the spiritual energy tide only lasted for a few hours, and then the spiritual energy could no longer be felt, as if it had completely disappeared.
However, after this period of research, our department found that there are still trace amounts of spiritual energy particles in the air! And the proportion of spiritual energy particles is increasing over time!"
The director of the Extraordinary Bureau frowned and said in a deep voice: "What is the proportion of spiritual energy particles in the air now?"
"Well, the proportion in the normal environment is 0.0072%. The proportion of spiritual energy in some areas will be larger, but it will not exceed 0.02%." The director of the Extraordinary Environment Research Department replied.
"That means there are only 72 cubic centimeters of spiritual energy in one cubic meter of air?" Lu Qi asked at this time.
"That's right!"
Lu Qi shook his head. Such a thin spiritual energy is equivalent to no spiritual energy at all. In the current spiritual energy environment of the Earth Star, even a first-level practitioner cannot maintain the most basic spiritual energy consumption.
As for him, a third-level practitioner, it is impossible to restore his cultivation.
"The Earth today can be said to be a world without demons, and no extraordinary powers can be used."
Speaking of this, the Minister of Environment glanced at Lu Qi and several other travelers standing beside him.
Lu Qi and his men were suppressed by the rules of the world with their extraordinary powers, and only retained their strong physical fitness.
If they faced hot weapons, they would die with hatred.
So after being discovered, they would accept the government's recruitment and join the Extraordinary Bureau.
"However, as time goes by, the proportion of spiritual energy particles is constantly increasing, and the growth rate is getting faster and faster.
At this rate, within five years, the concentration of spiritual energy particles will increase to a level that can support the emergence of extraordinary power."
You must know that when the spiritual energy tide just disappeared, the proportion of spiritual energy particles was only 0.0001%.
If they had not been repeatedly tested with instruments countless times, they would not have known that a new energy substance would suddenly appear on Earth.
"Why?" asked the director of the Extraordinary Bureau.
According to the law of conservation of energy, the proportion of spiritual energy particles cannot increase for no reason, there must be a reason.
"It is because some mutant plant species that can convert other energy into spiritual energy have appeared on Earth." An old man next to the Minister of Environment said.
He is the director of the Extraordinary Biology Research Department of the Extraordinary Bureau and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He can be said to be a national treasure in the field of biology.
"These creatures mutated under the tide of spiritual energy half a year ago, and their genetic genes were rearranged, so that the cell chloroplasts produced new cell structures, which can convert part of the solar energy into spiritual energy particles."
"It is because of their existence that the earth is gradually recovering its spiritual energy!"
According to the research of their biological research department, the mutant plants are multiplying at a very fast speed, and the number is increasing. This also causes the concentration of spiritual energy on the earth to increase continuously, and the speed is getting faster and faster.
The higher the concentration, the more and more normal creatures will mutate and become able to convert other energy into spiritual energy.
At the same time, because the mutant plants are native creatures and conform to the rules of the world without magic, the spiritual energy converted will not be annihilated and degraded to other energy by the extremely rigorous physical rules.
"Five years..." The director of the Extraordinary Bureau narrowed his eyes and tapped his fingers on the table.
The concentration of spiritual energy has increased to the level that can support the birth of the extraordinary system, which also means that the Eternal Realm mentioned by Lu Qi and other travelers may begin to invade the Earth at that time.
I don’t know whether the creatures invading from the Eternal Realm are gradually strengthened according to the spiritual environment, so that they come in batches from weak to strong, or whether the top strongmen of that world come directly across the border.
If it is the former, then the countries on Earth still have a chance to grow.
If it is the latter, then there is nothing to say, and the countries on Earth have no room for resistance at all.
After all, according to the descriptions of the strong men in the cultivation system by Lu Qi and other travelers, and the conclusions drawn by supercomputer deduction.
Nowadays, the most powerful weapons on Earth, nuclear bombs and hydrogen bombs, are already helpless against the seventh-level strongmen, not to mention the stronger eighth-level strongmen.
There is no need for the Eternal Realm to invade the Earth together. Even the Dayu Empire, where Lu Qi has been staying, has enough strength to suppress the countries on Earth.
And according to the time flow rate of the Eternal Realm and Earth, which is twenty to one, five years on Earth is equivalent to more than a hundred years in the Eternal Realm.
After such a long time, maybe the Eternal Realm already has the ninth-level immortal god that Lu Qi mentioned.
The director looked at another middle-aged woman, "How is the Eternal Realm's spiritual text textbook being compiled now?"
The middle-aged woman in charge of the spiritual text department immediately said: "The basic spiritual text textbook has been compiled, but the number of people who can master the writing and pronunciation of spiritual text is only a few tens of thousands."
"Enough! I will report to my superiors about the teaching of spiritual text in the Eternal Realm and add it to the national teaching plan as soon as possible."
The director said: "In addition, after the exercises provided by Mr. Lu Qi and others have been modified, let the troops familiarize themselves with them as soon as possible. When the concentration of spiritual energy reaches a certain level, let them practice immediately."
"I have a hunch that there will be changes on Earth again. Maybe the various races in the Eternal Realm will come to Earth through the space rift in advance..."
"Yes!"
ps: This chapter is not very good, but I can only code it like this after thinking about it for a day, transition chapter
