In the train carriage headed to a large team mission, about thirty employees sat in their seats, staring intently at Brother Shunzi as if they were students listening to a teacher, awaiting his speech.

“If nothing unexpected happens, we may soon face a catastrophic event of massive proportions…”

Colin paused, then emphasized:

“This won’t take long, if you have any preparations, try to complete them within the next month, whether you want to leave Earth at a certain time or take some other measures…”

Hearing Colin’s words, except for a small number of “The Descent Project” personnel, who had frequent contact with Colin, the faces of the others clearly showed a realization that “this is indeed true!”

As for the “end of the world,” the employees were not too surprised since the related rhetoric had always been present.

And after executing various missions, they, whose spiritual intuition had far exceeded that of ordinary people, often felt a premonition of an impending storm.

These issues usually seemed like widely-circulated but uncertain matters; the rhetoric was always there, just without concrete proof…

Until now, with the appearance of Brother Shunzi, a heavyweight, all the “rumors” seemed to have finally found a definitive assertion.

“What will happen?”

After snapping out of an indescribable shock, one of the employees couldn’t help but ask immediately.

“I’m not sure about that… What I can say for certain is that when the time comes, there will definitely be various terrifying anomalies resurfacing or invading, but exactly which ones, I can’t say for sure…”

During this speech, Colin recalled some recent frenzied missions.

As a part-time “cross-world traveler,” he found that Earth had far more and more complex anomalies than many other places.

Even the most minor anomalies, if anywhere else, might be considered a small “elite monster.”

But here, they were inexplicably like trivial fish…

Their performance or strength always seemed inferior to that of anomalies from the outside world.

Colin had always found it odd, not knowing the reason, but as one mission after another was carried out crazily, he gradually developed some answers.

The reason for this situation might be because there are too many higher-dimensional anomalies at home!

It’s precisely because there are so many of them that lower-level anomalies are unintentionally suppressed, hence the bizarre situation where many anomalies have a decent status but lack the ability to show it.

It’s like in real life, some regional tycoons, having ten or eight million in their small towns, are already among the countable wealthy and can speak loudly.

But once these people go to the capital of a country, they’ll find that there are many like them, worth ten or eight million, as common as stray dogs, and above them, there are those with wealth amounting to billions or even more terrifying figures…

So their voices are inadvertently suppressed.

Perhaps in ordinary times, this would somehow be a good thing.

It could make anomalies easier to handle.

After all, our personnel, perhaps thanks to “Bonfire Company,” haven’t seen their strength diminish too much.

But now, when everything is about to erupt.

The benefits we “enjoyed” usually must all be spit out at once…

After thinking it over, Colin looked at the person who asked the first question, and said, “However, what will happen then isn’t completely without a trace; we’ve executed quite a few ‘Descent’ incidents recently… When you have time, you can organize and review the things you encountered during those missions.”

“Understood…” The employee nodded in acknowledgment.

During this time, Colin executed missions frenziedly, including several that were set in post-disaster scenarios, inadvertently also enhancing everyone’s knowledge and psychological preparation for the upcoming end times.

Seeing everyone calm down, Colin continued:

“Besides internal matters, it’s likely that distant worlds beyond us will also cast their gaze, so it’s not just internal troubles but external threats too…”

“External threats” may come slower than “internal troubles,” but they are inevitably on their way.

However, “external threats” and “internal troubles” are likely not on the same level; high-level beings are never a unified entity, and when they are trapped in a cage, they guard against each other to prevent anyone from closing the door after getting out, resulting in internal strife.

Not to mention if they bring in “external threats” for assistance; they’ll probably guard even more fiercely…

The conflicts among them may provide some space for exploitation… Thinking this, Colin heard an employee inquire:

“Does Brother Shunzi know about these ‘external threats’?”

Colin pondered for two seconds and then replied:

“I do know some things, but I know they’re not an issue since I can cut off their remote corruption through my power, but it’s not the same for you…”

Being seasoned employees with considerable experience, upon hearing his words, they prudently refrained from asking further questions, not being curiously fervent to ask “Why is that?” and the like.

If they were all that curious, they wouldn’t have survived to this level.

For a while, silence fell over the place as if everyone were contemplating the impending doomsday.

Even though Brother Shunzi hadn’t explained why he was certain that disaster was imminent.

No one chose to question his words.

Known for his integrity, Brother Shunzi might make mistakes, but he would never deliberately mislead them, and besides, there was nothing to gain from such deception…
