Eventually.
Plank still agreed to the request on the other end of the phone, hastily ending the meeting about dealing with his rival’s sudden death.
Moreover.
He brought a group of his staff with him to the satellite base, wanting to see for himself what had happened that was more important than the deaths of those old guys.
At the entrance of Button State’s satellite base.
An old man in a white lab coat was looking around; he was the person in charge of the base…
Dr. James!
When he saw Plank and his staff arrive, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurried to greet them.
“Sir, come and see for yourself, it’s incredible.” Dr. James exaggeratedly pulled Plank by the sleeve and led him inside.
Plank just nodded slightly.
Entering the observation room.
The room was full of people, with most of them being top-notch scientists from various subjects of Eagle Country.
“Mr. Plank!”
“Mr. Plank!”
When everyone saw Plank come in, they greeted him one after another.
Standing in front of the screen.
Plank looked at the screen with curiosity.
“Huh?”
“Guys, did you want me to watch a movie trailer here?” Plank’s expression was exaggerated.
However.
Upon seeing the content on screen, he had a faint feeling of unease.
At least… these people were not likely to make fun of him, and the so-called movie trailer was nothing more than an exaggerated statement.
“Phew-” Plank took a deep breath and said to Dr. James next to him, “Play it again.”
“Yes!”
Dr. James responded and operated the screen to reset and replay the footage.
On screen…
There was a man of Eastern origin wearing a dark blue long Taoist robe, with strange-looking cloth shoes on his feet, and holding a… a long-haired rod in his hand?
What Plank couldn’t bring himself to believe was that this Eastern man could actually be floating in the air above Button City.
The technology now was extremely advanced, even the height of this Eastern man could be captured by the satellite.
Height: over 13,000 meters!
It was precisely because of this.
That Plank said, ‘What movie trailer is this?’
However.
The silence of the crowd.
So many experts gathered here, indicating that this was not a farce, nor a movie trailer, but a real image captured by the satellite.
The footage on the screen was still playing.
The strangely dressed Eastern young man first closed his eyes, then seemed to murmur a few words.
Then, suddenly.
The young man opened his eyes abruptly and waved the duster in his hand.
The next scene almost scared Plank limp.
He saw the young man suddenly look up at the satellite, his gaze piercing through the screen, staring directly at Plank himself.
Even though it was just an image transmitted through a screen.
Plank felt… as if he was facing a god. In front of the person, he seemed like a tiny insignificant ant.
“Wh-What’s going on here?”
The voice was trembling, but no one laughed at it. It was not because the speaker was their leader, but because their reactions were even worse just before.
“Mr. Plank, as you can see, this Eastern man, if I’m not mistaken, should be from the sect of the Great Yan Kingdom… the Taoist door.”
“He’s wearing a Taoist robe, wearing step tread on his feet, and holding… a legendary divine artifact called a Duster in his hand!”
After that.
A sociologist among the group explained to Plank.
Beside him.
Dr. James also spoke:
“Mr. Plank, there’s one more thing. The time of Mr. Dengtu’s death coincides with the Eastern Taoist waving the duster in the sky… at the same time!”
As soon as this was said.
Plank’s body shuddered, and his heart suddenly contracted.
The case was solved.
It turned out that the deaths of those old men coincided with the appearance of the mysterious Eastern Taoist.
While Plank was astonished.
Dr. James operated the screen again, switching to another scene.
This action caught Plank’s attention, and he looked at it again.
This time.
The entire Water Blue Star was the background, and in the scene, several huge meteorites were bombarding Water Blue Star.
“Was this the meteorite attack on Great Yan last time?” Plank could not help but ask.
Suddenly.
He recalled that during the last meteorite attack on Water Blue Star’s Great Yan Kingdom, the satellite had also captured an ethereal giant hand which directly scooped up the meteorites.
Combining the deaths of the old men this time, it was not difficult to guess that the two incidents might have been the same person… no, this level of capability was no longer within the realm of humanity.
“Sir, after our analysis, the mysterious Eastern… there may indeed be gods, and this Eastern Taoist who appeared in the sky is their god!”
Dr. James said hoarsely.
Upon hearing this.
Plank fell silent.
In his mind.
He couldn’t help but think if he had offended this Eastern Taoist.
Or could it be… that one day in the future, he too would end up like those old men, dying without knowing why.
His heart pondered this thought..
