The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.

After Chen Yang finished speaking, the room fell into a brief silence.

Li Weiguo and Zhang Daoxuan both frowned.

Clearly, as the leaders of the Supreme Command, the two had experienced too many bizarre events.

From these two pictures, they sensed something unusual.

Seeing that the two leaders remained silent, Chen Yang spoke up at the opportune moment: "Leaders, in addition to this, we also need to pay attention to... we started recording it from the moment it appeared in the rift in the sky."

"But so far, there are no signs that the waveform is stabilizing."

"You could even say... it's continuing to deteriorate."

"deterioration?"

Clearly, Li Weiguo grasped the essence of this word.

"right."

Chen Yang nodded: "The amplitude of the waveform has increased by seventeen percent in the past ten minutes! Something's not right."

He paused. "It's like...it's about to explode."

The temperature in the office seemed to have dropped two degrees.

Li Weiguo stared at the raging waveform graph and remained silent for several seconds.

Zhang Daoxuan walked to the projector, carefully examined every detail of the waveform, then looked up and his gaze fell on Chen Yang's face.

"So... what's the intelligence department's assessment?"

Chen Yang paused for a moment, as if he was choosing his words.

"Two possibilities."

He held up two fingers: "First, this fragment was disturbed by some external force during its fall, causing its internal structure to become unstable."

"If that's the case, then the problem isn't too serious. With a buffer period, as long as things stabilize, it's fine!"

"What about the second one?"

Chen Yang frowned even more: "The second possibility—that means that this fragment was never a normal fragment of a high-dimensional secret realm from the beginning."

"What do you mean?"

"It means..."

Chen Yang frowned, a rare seriousness in his eyes: "It might not have fallen from here."

"Instead... they were left behind."

After those words were spoken, the office became so quiet that the hum of the air conditioner vents could be heard.

Li Weiguo and Zhang Daoxuan exchanged a glance.

They both saw the same thing in each other's eyes—this is trouble.

If Chen Yang's second guess is correct.

Then this fragment of a higher-dimensional secret realm is not some treasure that fell from the sky.

The room fell silent once again.

A moment later, Li Weiguo tapped his fingers twice on the table: "No matter what the situation, we must get to the scene as soon as possible."

"If it's a treasure, grab it; if it's a trap, figure it out. In short, don't let others get there first."

He looked up at Zhang Daoxuan and said, "Daoxuan, please help coordinate the deployment of the demigod seniors. But no matter where they are deployed, the candidates must be confirmed within half an hour."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Daoxuan nodded and got up to make arrangements.

However, just as Zhang Daoxuan was about to leave.

hum-

A deep humming sound rang out without warning, and the sound did not come from any specific direction.

It was more like they were pouring in from all directions at once!

It seeps in from the soles of your feet, presses down from the ceiling, and seeps out from the walls.

Everything in the entire office was resonating at the same frequency!

The iced tea on the table rippled, and the glass in the window hummed.

Even the holographic projector that Chen Yang had just put down was still spinning on the table.

The three of them were stunned at the same time.

I wasn't scared.

Rather, the penetrating power of this buzzing sound is simply outrageous.

It doesn't go through the ears, but directly through bone conduction, vibrating all the way from the skull to the tailbone. The feeling is like someone stuffing your whole body into a giant bell and then striking it from the outside.

"What...what's that noise?"

Li Weiguo's eyes suddenly narrowed.

Zhang Daoxuan's hand was already on the doorknob when he heard the sound and he turned around abruptly.

Chen Yang reacted the fastest.

He grabbed the holographic projector from the table, swiped his fingers quickly a couple of times, and brought up the real-time monitoring interface.

Then his expression changed.

"Two leaders—"

Chen Yang's voice was a little strained: "The waveform—the waveform exploded!"

Before he could finish speaking...

The sky outside the window brightened.

It's not the kind of brightness you see at sunrise.

Even the brightest sunrise unfolds slowly from the east; it's a process, a gradual progression.

This time it lit up instantly.

It's like someone suddenly turned the brightness bar of the entire Earth to its maximum value.

A seven-colored beam of light shot into the sky from the direction of the sea level.

How thick was that beam of light?

If I had to use an analogy, it would be like someone twisting an entire rainbow into a rope and then sticking that rope vertically into the ocean.

The diameter of the light beam was estimated to be over 100 kilometers.

It rises abruptly from the sea, piercing straight into the sky, penetrating the atmosphere, the clouds, and all obstacles.

The colors of the light pillar were not static, but rather seven colors—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet—flowed wildly inside, as if someone had poured seven buckets of paint into a mixer.

But strangely enough...

These seven colors did not mix together into a grayish blob, but each maintained its purest hue, rising upwards as it rotated.

The most exaggerated thing is the brightness of this beam of light.

It's nighttime in Longjing.

It's daytime now.

It could even be said that it was brighter than daytime.

After all, at least during the day you can tell where the sun is.

Now?

The whole world is filled with light.

Light is everywhere.

Even... when I close my eyes, all I see is light—

The light penetrated directly through your eyelids, leaving a colorful afterimage on your retina.

And the location where this beam of light shot into the sky.

This is the very spot where that fragment of a high-dimensional secret realm fell into the sea just over ten minutes ago.

Li Weiguo stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his face reflecting the colorful light, sometimes red, sometimes blue, and sometimes purple.

That expression could no longer be described as "solemn".

"Chen Yang".

Li Weiguo immediately turned to Chen Yang and asked seriously, "How's the data?"

"I'm watching it!"

Chen Yang's fingers moved so fast on the holographic projector that they left afterimages.

Visibly, the data panel on the projector was displaying numbers rapidly.

"Energy fluctuation index..."

"Breaked through the S-level threshold! And it's still rising!"

Unfortunately, before he could finish speaking, the data panel on the projector shattered with a snap.

It's not that it's turned off, it's really broken.

The holographic projection image cracked in the middle like a piece of glass being hit by a hammer, and then pieces fell off.

Finally, it turned into a blue electronic snowflake and dissipated into the air.

"What... what is this?"

Chen Yang stared blankly at the projector emitting blue smoke in his hand, unsure of what to say for a moment.

This thing is part of the highest command's equipment.

The military's most advanced quantum sensing equipment can withstand source-level energy fluctuations.

But now... it's been burned directly.
