A God-tier Counter-damage Priest, I am the Master!

230: The Era of the People”Inspector Bai!”

A soldier ran over quickly, and after saluting Bai Tian, he said with an unnatural expression,

”The... Commander and Group Leader Jiang are waiting for you in the conference room...”

The soldier’s gaze was somewhat unnatural, mainly because Bai Tian had brought back a centipede over three meters long, as large as a forest python, which had completely shocked the soldier.

The military district headquarters had just experienced a wave of brutal beast tide attacks, and at this moment, the carcasses of wild animals all around had not yet been cleared away.

”Mm.”

Bai Tian nodded, ignoring the countless surprised gazes from all around, and quickly brought the mutated centipede to the conference room.

Inside the conference room, Commander Qin and various high-ranking military officers were already seated, and Jiang Yuebai was there too.

When they saw Bai Tian walk in with a giant mutated centipede, everyone except Jiang Yuebai had their eyes narrow slightly.

”Commander, everyone, this thing was the leader of the previous beast tide.”

As he spoke, Bai Tian used his Psychokinesis to control the giant centipede, making it fly into the center of the conference room.

Furthermore, he suppressed it so much that it couldn’t move an inch, unable to spit out even a drop of venom.

”Good heavens, such a large centipede. Has it become a spirit?”

”Uh, Old Wu, watch your words! Don’t promote feudal superstitious ideas. What era is this? Where would the idea of animals becoming spirits come from?”

”This giant centipede must weigh about two hundred pounds, right?”

”I suggest sending it to the military district’s scientific research department for the researchers to conduct an in-depth dissection and study...”

The shock brought by this giant centipede was immense, and the high-ranking officers expressed their opinions.

At this moment, Commander Qin cleared his throat and said, ”Inspector Bai, thank you for your hard work.”

”Thanks to you and Moon White arriving in time to help today; otherwise, the military district headquarters would have suffered heavy losses.”

”Since this mutated centipede is the culprit, if you and Moon White don’t object, I’d like to have someone take it down for research. How about it?”

Bai Tian and Jiang Yuebai glanced at each other and nodded. ”Everything is as the Commander says.”

But then Bai Tian pulled out a wild grape the size of a fist, purple-red in color, with a thick fruity aroma.

”Commander, this is a mutated grape. I snatched it from under this centipede’s mouth. Its transformation might be related to this.”

”Let the researchers take this for testing as well!”

A grape actually grew to the size of a fist, like an apple; Commander Qin and the others were truly amazed.

”Good.”

Commander Qin nodded and waved his hand, signaling someone to step forward and take the mutated grape from Bai Tian’s hand.

In fact, Bai Tian still had five large clusters of these, at least a hundred of them.

Bai Tian estimated that the effect of these mutated wild grapes was similar to spiritual medicine in the game.

He would take one out for the researchers to study for now and see what it was actually useful for.

”Inspector Bai, please have a seat.”

Commander Qin gestured toward Bai Tian.

Bai Tian sat down in the seat next to Jiang Yuebai.

Then, Commander Qin nodded to an adjutant beside him, signaling that he could begin.

The adjutant immediately stood up straight, nodded to everyone present, and turned on the projection simulator.

Although the entire Jiangzhou had mysteriously lost power, the military district headquarters naturally had backup power methods, and various high-tech instruments could still barely function normally.

”Everyone! Not long ago, we received urgent top-secret information from above.”

”After [[Nine Heavens]] shut down for updates, strange changes immediately occurred all over Blue Star.”

”Before losing control, all satellites monitored that starting from the polar regions, two unknown giant black holes suddenly appeared, from which a terrifying cold wave spread out, causing extreme cold weather.”

”According to calculations, this terrifying cold wave will spread across the globe within 14 hours, creating an extremely cold environment.”

The adjutant’s expression was serious and solemn as he continued, ”This strange change has already caused various technological means across the globe to fail. How long it will last is currently unknown.”

”Furthermore, multiple spatial node black holes have appeared all over the world. This has caused the flora and fauna across the globe to undergo strange changes. These are the images sent back before the satellites failed.”

After the adjutant finished speaking, he operated the projection simulator, and various appalling images immediately appeared on it.

In the sky, on the ground, and in the ocean, whether it was creatures or vegetation, everything was rapidly mutating.

On an island in the ocean, a mutated king crab as large as an oil tanker was captured fighting a giant sea turtle whose size was not inferior to its own.

On a certain African savanna, vegetation grew wildly, and countless wild animals fled in panic.

There was a mutated baobab tree over a hundred meters tall that could move freely; it had grown human-like facial features and a large mouth, and it was frantically preying on animals.

In the Ganges River of India, dense clusters of mutated giant soft-shelled turtles appeared; they rushed out of the river like mad, invading the land to eat people and fighting with the arriving army.

On the world’s highest peak, three mutated raptors with shimmering golden feathers, giant horns surrounded by lightning, and wingspans over ten meters wide were circling.

Even on Mount Tai within Great Xia, not only did many ancient exotic beasts recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas appear, but many ancient trees over five hundred years old also came to life one after another, growing human-like facial features and starting to hunt living things... After the projection ended, the adjutant said solemnly, ”Everyone, our world is undergoing an unprecedentedly massive change.”

”The beast tides like the one we just experienced are occurring all over the world.”

”The higher-ups have already sent us orders to relocate all residents from the outskirts of Jiangzhou to the city.”

”At the same time, the military district will work in three shifts 24 hours a day to form a protective barrier outside Jiangzhou City, resisting all possible risks and guarding the lives and safety of the people.”

As he spoke, the adjutant turned his gaze toward Jiang Yuebai and Bai Tian. ”Group Leader Jiang, Inspector Bai, this massive change is unprecedented.”

”Once a Level 3 or higher beast tide or unknown risk occurs somewhere in Great Xia, we may need the two of you to take action.”

Jiang Yuebai and Bai Tian said without thinking, ”With great power comes great responsibility. If we are needed anywhere, we will arrive at the first possible moment.”

Just then, Commander Qin’s dedicated secret phone suddenly rang. After he answered it, his expression changed slightly.

Then, his gaze turned to Jiang Yuebai and Bai Tian. ”Quanhai City has seen a Level 3 beast tide. A mutated lobster and a man-eating kelp are leading countless sea monsters in an attack.”

”That mutated lobster and man-eating kelp are unstoppable; even Grandmaster-level power cannot threaten them.”

”I’m afraid we need you to go and provide assistance.”

Bai Tian and Jiang Yuebai immediately stood up. ”Alright.”

But at this moment, Commander Qin received another call. After it ended, his voice became even heavier.

”It’s not just Quanhai; Guanghai has also seen a Level 3 beast tide...”

The [[Nine Heavens]] game maintenance hadn’t even finished, and reality had already become this bad!?

Jiang Yuebai’s heroic brows furrowed. ”Commander, please send a special plane to take me to the nearest Quanhai.”

”Bai Tian, I’ll leave the further Guanghai to you.”

Bai Tian nodded. ”Alright.”

After speaking, Bai Tian didn’t waste any time. He put on a signal-less positioning watch and immediately took flight.

Jiang Yuebai also took a special plane and immediately rushed toward Quanhai.

That night, the world changed drastically, with terrifying beast tide city-siege events occurring in countries and regions everywhere.

But Bai Tian and Jiang Yuebai only cared about Great Xia; they didn’t have a moment’s rest the entire night.

Overnight, the two of them traveled back and forth between multiple cities in Great Xia, suppressing beast tides and killing various mutated beasts and even plant-type monster leaders.

Fortunately, there were many capable people within Great Xia, and there were still two nuclear-weapon-level combatants Above Grandmaster.

There were also dozens of Grandmaster-level combatants.

Combined with the military’s power, the beast tide turmoil was temporarily quelled overnight.

Around nine o’clock the next morning, Bai Tian was landing on the top of a skyscraper, leaning back to catch his breath.

Suddenly, an extremely cold current blew in, and even he felt a chill creeping over him.

After Bai Tian stood up, he saw the endless blood clouds in the sky begin to recede, followed by being covered by an infinitely thick white mist.

Suddenly, one pure white snowflake after another fell from the sky, scattering across the earth.

It’s snowing?

Each snowflake was a rare palm-size.

The temperature in the air plummeted instantly, dropping from over twenty degrees into a bitter Winter.

Looking at the endless falling snow and cold wind, Bai Tian knew that the extreme cold current spreading from the polar regions, which the adjutant had mentioned, had arrived.

The next moment, the heavens and earth suddenly shook, followed by an incredible, cold voice without any emotion appearing in the mind of every person on Blue Star.

—”(Ding-dong)!”

”(Winter has arrived, and spiritual energy is recovering! [[Nine Heavens]] has temporarily merged with parts of Blue Star, and the Era of Universal Class Awakening has officially begun.)”

”(To all living beings on Blue Star: Heaven and Earth are heartless, treating all things like straw dogs! The Era of God-making has appeared; the epoch belonging to you has been opened.)”

”(...)”

When they heard the system prompt from the game echoing throughout the real world globally, people all over the world were stunned.

Even Bai Tian himself looked up at the sky in disbelief...
