Fang Xiu calmly released the bombshell news.
“The island nation is the first, but certainly not the last. As time goes by, all the countries in the world will be occupied by the strange, and only the Xia Kingdom will survive.”
The shocking comments section fell silent for a moment after the news broke.
After a long while, someone finally posted a comment: "Is this bullshit? Let me state first that I am patriotic, but to say that the whole world has been destroyed and only China is left is too unrealistic."
"Unrealistic? What's unrealistic about it! I'm sure I'll become a top-tier Spirit Master in the future, and when the strange creatures invade, I'll step in to protect the Xia Kingdom!"
"From a rational point of view, it is indeed unrealistic. If the world were to be destroyed, I would believe that the Xia Kingdom would be the last to perish, but it is unlikely that the entire world would perish and only the Xia Kingdom would survive. Although the Xia Kingdom is strong, it is not strong enough to be stronger than the entire world combined."
"That's right, Captain Fang is obviously afraid that people will all immigrate abroad for safety reasons, so that's why he said that, isn't it?"
There are many doubts about Fang Xiu online, and even some people at the scene are skeptical.
But Fang Xiu continued talking to himself.
"The Xia Kingdom will not only survive, but will also lead all mankind in the future to counterattack against the supernatural and completely resolve the chaos caused by it."
The doubts and criticisms are growing louder.
"This is getting more and more absurd. It's good to be patriotic, but you have to be rational in your patriotism."
"Haven't you noticed? Captain Fang keeps using one word—'future'! Everything he says is based on the future."
He just knew the reporter's question in advance, and now he speaks so confidently about the future. Does this mean he can truly predict the future? Is it possible that he saw all of this from the future?
......
"I know many people won't believe me, but it's the truth, because I've already seen the future!"
Fang Xiu's calm voice resonated throughout the entire venue.
"Some people wondered why I knew the reporters' questions in advance. That's because my ability is to foresee the future!"
Holy crap! This is real precognition!
"Could it be that what Captain Fang said is true? In the future, only the Xia Kingdom can defeat the strange entity?"
"He wouldn't have said that on purpose to boost morale, would he? Anyway, he's the captain, so if he says he can predict the future, then he can predict the future."
At this moment, a VIP comment appeared on the screen.
"I am a spirit master, and I can testify that what Captain Fang said is true. His deeds have already spread throughout the global forums about strange and supernatural things."
Besides being the head of the Xia Kingdom Investigation Bureau, he has an even more resounding title: the prophet!
He is hailed as the world's greatest spirit master, and also the most desired man by every nation. Since becoming a spirit master, every prophecy he has made about the future has never been wrong.
"Really? That's incredible!"
"Yes, it's true. I'm also a Spirit Master, and I can vouch for it. There's no need to doubt Captain Fang's words; just listen to him without question, because his words represent the future. His reputation has already spread throughout the Spirit Master community."
If any of you are spirit masters, you will understand just how weighty the word "prophet" truly is.
Gradually, some spirit masters started leaking screenshots from global eerie forums.
The posts about Fang Xiu were all screenshotted, and many netizens were shocked when they saw them.
After reading about Fang Xiu's deeds, everyone understood why he could become the captain at such a young age.
While everyone was engaged in heated discussion, one person was trembling with fear.
That was Xiao Chuxia hiding under the table.
Because she felt she might be silenced.
She looked up at Fang Xiu, who was right in front of her. Because she was squatting down, she couldn't see Fang Xiu's face at all, only his crotch.
This peculiar perspective initially sparked her imagination, but after Fang Xiu uttered the words, "My ability is to foresee the future," she was left only with fear.
Because she discovered that when Fang Xiu said those words, she actually absorbed a lot of the power of lies from the scene.
what does that mean?
This means Fang Xiu is lying!
His ability is not to predict the future at all!
This is chilling to think about. Xiao Chuxia panicked. Fang Xiu's prophetic behavior was nothing short of foreseeing the future.
But if one can foresee the future, why would one absorb the power of lies?
When she and Fang Xiu were working together to absorb the power of lies, and when the spirit possessed her, Fang Xiu never directly said that his ability was to foresee the future. At that time, he only said that he saw a way to break through to the fifth level in the future.
That statement is false, since breaking through to the fifth rank depends on one's own ability.
But now, Fang Xiu has clearly stated that his ability is to foresee the future, which has triggered the power of lies... Xiao Chuxia dares not think about the rest.
She felt like a lonely, weak, and helpless newbie who accidentally stumbled upon a powerful figure's secret, and from then on, she was coerced, bullied, and humiliated by him...
At that moment, Fang Xiu's voice rang in Xiao Chuxia's mind.
"How's the absorption of the power of lies going?"
After all, he had just lied in front of the entire nation; he did not foresee the world being destroyed and Xia Kingdom surviving alone, and even launching a counterattack in a bizarre future.
Xiao Chuxia was silent for a moment, then said in a weak voice, "I can only absorb the power of lies on the scene, but I can't absorb the power of lies on the internet."
Even though the experiment failed, Fang Xiu's expression didn't change. He had basically guessed the result long ago.
While the power of lies is strong, it's not to an extreme degree. If the power of lies didn't need a medium and could be used to reap rewards even through the internet, then destiny would be irrelevant.
If Xiao Chuxia were to become a live-streaming e-commerce host, wouldn't her daily barrage of lies be overflowing?
It seems that the absorption of the power of lies has a certain range. To absorb it on a large scale, a medium is needed, just like the dream of a nightmare.
Since there are no shortcuts, the only option is to wait until one's own strength increases, then use nightmares to engulf the entire country, and reap the benefits of lies.
Fang Xiu had prepared a series of lies to deceive the whole country, but now it seems he won't need them anymore.
"Hugh... Hugh, your ability isn't to foresee the future?"
"Um."
Xiao Chuxia's heart skipped a beat. Just as she thought, she was doomed and had discovered the big boss's secret.
How will he punish me next?
He probably won't kill me, since I'm still useful. Does he want me to go through the passage to my soul and submit to his tyranny, so I won't dare to spread the secret?
Fang Xiu ignored Xiao Chuxia's wild thoughts; he was never afraid of others knowing his secrets.
Because... nobody will believe it.
