Chapter 605 - 599: Qiangwei’s Commanding Presence · Walnut’s Contempt
The camera focuses on the boy’s white hair.
Perhaps because Ma Ran’s "Burning Martial" cultivation realm is relatively high, his life force is strong. His head of white hair doesn’t look withered and dull like a normal aging person’s, but instead, each strand is lustrous, like satin shimmering with mithril brilliance.
In the grand hall, the wind suddenly rises.
The silver hair flutters, making it impossible for the audience at the scene and in the live broadcast room to take their eyes off.
After the previous speech, Ma Ran clearly had more important things to say, but seemingly due to factors unknown to outsiders, he is restrained. His brow slightly furrows, standing still like a statue that has existed since ancient times, weathered by wind and rain.
In the VIP seats, many National Guardian-level Extraordinary Ones are somewhat uneasy at this moment.
So far, Ma Ran’s prophecies have never been wrong, possessing a very high credibility. Everyone is willing to listen to his judgments and opinions about the future.
But precisely because of this, they feel a chill down their spines from Ma Ran’s words at this very moment!
At least ten thousand times of foreknowledge and deduction, Earth’s outcome always ends in total annihilation!
With Ma Ran’s wisdom, it’s impossible for him to overlook any top combat power on Earth, much less ignore those three interstellar friends from Cangming Star.
Even so, Earth’s outcome has always been complete destruction!
Everyone has long known that Divine Court is very powerful; whether in influence, technology, or high-end power, it can absolutely overpower Earth comprehensively, which has already become a consensus.
But such understanding is not intuitive enough!
After all, the Eternal Civilization, Chuanke Civilization, and even the Zhang Heng Civilization, which disappeared after a fleeting glance on the opposing side of Earth, all showed technology and power leading Earth by many eras.
Yet, the ultimate victor was still Earth!
Some well-composed top Extraordinary Ones even thought that as long as Earth humans could discard their prejudices against one another, avoid internecine fights, unite and cooperate, and work together, they would certainly achieve victory.
How to achieve victory?
What justifies achieving victory?
They instinctively don’t want to think about that question.
Right here, right now, Ma Ran’s words shattered their blind optimism, tore apart that layer of false confidence, presenting the bloody, boundless darkness of cruel truth before the crowd.
A massive pressure suddenly enveloped the shoulders of top Extraordinary Ones, almost making it hard for them to breathe.
Light Speed Gentleman William pursed his lips tightly, his brow furrowed, instinctively glancing at his compatriot beside him.
Sitting to his left, the National Guardian-level predecessor, Undying Gentleman Bradley, sensing the gaze, immediately turned his head.
With the remote help of an Ability User dispatched by the UK’s "Special Talent Integration Agency," the two could engage in thought exchange directly as long as their eyes met, needing no words.
"What should we do now? The situation has developed beyond expectation, Divine Court is this strong..."
"Just stay quiet and wait! I believe in the Prophet’s ability and wisdom; he wouldn’t reveal such despairing truths without a solution."
"Entrusting such critical matters and survival on others? Even if that person is Ma Ran, I can’t accept it!"
"Would you accept if it’s that Lord of the Red Lotus?"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing particular, just suggesting you calm down. You should maintain your rationality!"
"Are we to do nothing then?"
"No, currently, being able to sit in the VIP seats is one of the perks brought by power and status. At the same time... whether we like it or not, we all must shoulder our own responsibilities — to protect Earth Civilization from alien influence. But you must be clear: everyone’s strengths and abilities are different. Blindly pursuing the power to command and lead will only turn us into ’pig teammates’ dragging others down, so..."
Su Qiangwei suddenly exploded in both their minds, interrupting William and Bradley’s conversation, "Shut up!"
The two National Guardian-level Ability Users looked at each other with slightly embarrassed expressions but felt somewhat wronged after gathering their thoughts.
They pondered, didn’t they make any sound?
Is thought exchange also a crime?
"It’s my fault in expression."
Su Qiangwei turned her face, with eyes sharp as blades, and said seriously, "Your brain waves are too active."
"For people like the Prophet and me, your conversation just now was like someone shouting into our ears with a microphone. You might as well lower your voices and communicate softly."
With that said, the girl raised a fair finger, pointing diagonally towards the northwest: "Even the Prophet’s pet finds you too noisy."
William and Bradley instinctively followed the direction of the sound, discovering not far away, a golden, plump walnut-shaped creature staring at them.
For some reason, the first thing both felt was the emotion conveyed from this Golden Little Walnut — emotions named "disdain" and "contempt."
It was like witnessing someone doing something unacceptable in public, generating a natural reaction.
Light Speed Gentleman and Undying Gentleman blushed, immediately apologizing in a low voice and expressing they would try their best to abandon thoughts and listen quietly to the Prophet’s discourse.
Su Qiangwei nodded slightly, her calm gaze sweeping across a certain Englishman in the crowd.
Moments later, she focused her attention on Ma Ran.
Master Qiangwei, God of Control!
The girl felt a sense of pride internally, yet her face remained calm, casually saying, "Just stay quiet, don’t do anything unnecessary to avoid disturbing him."
While saying this, Su Qiangwei also noticed an English reporter with a BBC badge in the crowd, who was the Superpower User constructing the thought exchange channel for Bradley and William just now.
Armed with hundreds of superpowers, she discerned the hidden identity and origin of the other at a glance — an elite Executor of the Special Talent Integration Agency.
The Special Talent Integration Agency is an organization similar to China’s Academic Society, aiming to discover and train top Extraordinary Ability Users. It is highly professional, not inferior to the various provincial Academic Societies in China, but its investment and achievements in the research field lag significantly behind the top five Academic Societies on the Chinese side.
At this thought, Su Qiangwei collected her thoughts, concentrating her attention on Ma Ran.
An ordinary person standing motionless in front of the camera is just daydreaming, lacking a camera presence.
Ma Ran standing motionless in front of the camera reveals something different; it’s deep contemplation, strategic planning, and a quest for global well-being, yet remaining handsome and transcending worldly demeanor.
The next moment, a blush of red gleam flashed through Ma Ran’s eyes, as if it took away all his confusion, also marking the end of his "painful memories."
He looked intently at Ye Fengqing, speaking words that were difficult for people to understand.
"Talent base."
