Chapter 99
[Fuck! Is this the end of the world? I feel like I slept for decades! [Plants growing wildly on the balcony.JPG] [Trees outside the security window.JPG]]
[Is there something wrong with you too?! I have it too! When I opened the door this morning, I thought I was still asleep!]
[Where is your house located? Why don’t we have it here? The plants seem to be growing more energetically…]
[We don’t have it here either? ]
[Can you tell that this is the sapling I planted last month? [Comparison of sapling and arm.JPG]
It's totally off the mark!!!】
[The cicadas here are several times louder than last night. I haven't slept all night! You noisy things are going to kill me———]
Last night ended with a big melon frenzy. When people woke up this morning, they found that the trees outside their windows were growing better and there were more animals. The pictures posted in the comments were simply a little outrageous.
However, not many cities have seen big changes. Most people generally report that the most easily observable plants are growing more vigorously, and this is not as exaggerated as some provinces have said.
After the "end of the world theory" comes the "resurrection theory".
[Why are you all imagining that it’s the end of the world… [pointing and gesturing.JPG]
Can't it be a resurgence of spiritual energy? 】
[Hahahaha, if the spirit energy really revives, then wouldn't that be the novel coming true?]
[Six six six! Dream of flying and being able to do anything! ]
…
People on the Internet laughed at this situation and no one took it too seriously. Many people even thought it was photoshopped for fun. But inside the bureau, all the high-end combat forces still in Beijing gathered in one place for an emergency meeting. In another room next to the conference room, there were hundreds of lit monitors, and behind each monitor was a solemn face.
Their hands are rapidly operating on the keyboard. Once the big data captures the key words, the comments will be deleted urgently.
[I can’t contact my friend in Chongming City! The phone call is not working, and the police report has been accepted but there is still no result. What should I do? ]
[Help! I'm dizzy and can't even stand up. The police line is busy!!!]
[There was a series of car accidents in Luping City! Many people fainted on the road for no apparent reason! ]
[Cangxi City Sixth Hospital is full, which other hospital has seats? ]
[There is an earthquake here! It is so strong! ]
[I am on the border between Chongming City and Baimi City. My car is stuck here and keeps going in circles! ]
…
These comments, which are completely different from the online carnival, have been deleted from the Internet across the country. The IP addresses and help-seeking content have been simultaneously transferred to another special website, reflecting abnormal phenomena, waiting for national rescue, seeking help for family members...all kinds of comments have been collected together, and the number is increasing at a terrifying rate.
In the conference room, everyone had a worried look on their face.
"According to the satellite cloud map, the formation is based on the seal site of the Disaster Beast Fei in the [Special Anomaly File] as the center of the formation, and covers the entire Chongming City. It is a recovery formation." The director of the Extraordinary Return Department, who was sitting second from the left at the conference table, projected the results of the overnight investigation on the large screen in front of the conference room. "We speculate that the recovery formation will extract the vitality of ordinary people, so that the Disaster Beast Fei, who is sealed in the formation and is becoming increasingly weak, can recover its heyday."
She paused, and continued, "But the flying caterpillar is a calamity beast. Its appearance usually indicates a widespread epidemic, the death of all plants, and a severe drought. However, according to the data collected after the emergency website was opened, ordinary people do have symptoms of discomfort, ranging from dizziness to fainting. However, plants are growing vigorously in spite of their normal state."
The Classic of Mountains and Seas states:
[There is a beast that looks like an ox but has a white head, one eye and a snake tail. It is called Fei. If it moves on water, it dries up. If it moves on grass, it dies. If it is seen, there will be a great epidemic in the world.]
The current situation is so bizarre that anyone with even a superficial understanding of the inner world can intuitively discover it.
Someone put forward his own opinion: "Perhaps it is because Fei is in the seal, so the accompanying phenomenon of the plague has not yet occurred?"
But everyone knows that this possibility is very small. The complex formation covering the entire Chongming City may just be a "bait" placed on the surface. There are countless fish hidden under the unclear water.

When Yu Tu woke up, he was stunned.
With energy concentrated in his eyes, his vision could easily pass through the carved wooden door, but Yu Tu... suspected that he had not woken up yet.
Because on the street outside the wooden door, green weeds grew in every gap of the square stone bricks, and they were estimated to be at least half a meter high. In the green belt built for beauty, the half-human-high shrubs were already nearly two meters high, as if some unknown mutation had occurred.
Yu Tu: “……?”
Did he feel like he had been sleeping for years?
Have you slept so long that scientists have developed new varieties of green belts?
With a shocked mood, Yu Tu pushed the door open and went out. He tried to use his energy to communicate with these plants that seemed to have changed, but he didn't get any response at all.
This is not right.
Ever since Yu Tu was able to switch back and forth between his human form prototypes, his control over energy has reached a new level. After distributing the energy to the flowers, plants, and trees around him, he can slightly sense their conditions, such as whether they are healthy or damaged, happy or irritated... But today, after distributing the energy, he only received emptiness.
Yu Tu turned around and closed the door, then decided to take a walk around the area to see whether there was a problem with this street or with the entire Wutong Town.
After stepping out of the street, he realized that there was a big problem, everything he saw was exactly the same as the commercial street he was on, the only difference was that there were some people lying on the ground here and there, and many people were sitting on the side of the road, their faces were pale and covered in cold sweat, as if they had suddenly suffered from some disease.
Yu Tu opened the energy shielding field and approached a person who had fainted on the ground. He separated a strand of energy and probed into his body and made a circle - there was nothing serious wrong with him, except that his health condition was sub-healthy. But even if it was sub-healthy, it was not so bad that he would faint in the street!
Yu Tu's brows wrinkled unconsciously, and he released this wandering energy directly into the body of the unconscious man. The man blinked his eyelids, and after a while, he opened his eyes with difficulty, crawled up from the ground very slowly, and sat down beside the railing, panting, to rest.
After resting for a while, the man took out his cell phone and called 120 for himself, but the other end of the phone kept ringing a busy tone.
Seeing that the energy was effective, Yu Tu used the same method to save several other people who had fainted. Only after seeing them wake up did he leave the street.
But there were also people fainting on other streets. There was even a car accident at an intersection where two cars collided. After the airbags popped out, both parties fell into a coma. It was not known whether they fainted because of the car accident or because of some unknown reason before.
Yu Tu walked for another ten minutes. Wherever he looked, he saw the same scene. Even Yu Tu himself felt inexplicably tired and dizzy.
In the consciousness, both the "threads" of good karma and the "threads" of bad karma are flashing wildly at this moment, and almost all the people who have fainted can become their karma objects.
Yu Tu: “…”
He yawned and felt a throbbing pain in his head. So many good and bad karmas had happened one after another, and it was estimated that before the energy could be fed back, he would be drained of it!
Yu Tu shook his head and blinked, trying to shake off his fatigue. However, the sound transmission talisman he was carrying suddenly vibrated wildly. After he took out the talisman, it was suspended in mid-air. A voice came out from it intermittently, as if it was an old-fashioned radio that had been used for 20 or 30 years. What he could hear depended entirely on luck:
"Senior... Disaster Beast Mutation, Squad 14... Headquarters... Communication cut off, vitality extraction... Please..."
For some reason, the sound transmission talisman was not very effective. Yu Tu had to guess what he said, but before he could figure out much, the talisman burned to ashes.
This was given to him by someone who picked up Wei Ziming from the teahouse early this morning and claimed to be from the 14th Special Task Force. They said they were very grateful for his help and would inform him immediately if there was any follow-up to the matter.
Because the leader of Group 7, Meng Ziqiu, had specifically told the Buyehou senior that he didn't like to contact people, Group 14 had specially prepared a one-way note - it could only receive messages, not send them.
This can be regarded as fully taking into account the personality and needs of the seniors, but this one-way note is simply making the situation worse under the current circumstances.
Yu Tu learned a lot of knowledge about the inner world from the Plant Clan and Millerkel, but when it came to confidential content, he didn't have many direct channels to learn about it.
After calming the restless "thread" in his consciousness, Yu Tu suddenly realized that—
He has lost contact with the original entity.
The subject had been working late into the night to look up information for several days in a row. In order to ensure that there was nothing wrong with the body, Yu Tu let the subject fall into a deep sleep when he fell asleep so that he could fully recover.
But now... he had lost his senses.
His consciousness was trapped in the vest of Buyehou, a creature made of energy.
