Chapter 273: Doomsday is coming?
At night, in the meeting room of the Jujutsu High School.
Ye Mo Zheng Dao sat in the main seat, and the conference table was almost full of people.
Almost all the famous sorcerers who were able to attend had already arrived.
First-class sorcerer Nanami Kento, Kusakabe Atsuya, Meimei, Utahime, Rakuganji Yoshinobu, Todou Aoi…
The sorcerer transferred from Hokkaido is on the way.
The rest of the students from both schools were standing in the corridor outside the conference room waiting.
Seeing Gojo Satoru, Gojo Kiri, Geto Suguru, Fushiguro Shinji and Ieiri Naoko coming in, Yaga Masamichi coughed lightly and pointed to a few seats that had been vacated long ago and said, "Sit down."
Except for Ieiri Naoko, everyone present had a combat skill level of at least level one, but as if that wasn't enough, Noctua said, "Kujuku Yuki will come directly from the airport in twenty minutes."
"Principal, what happened?" Gojo Satoru pulled out a stool without any hesitation, and swept his sharp eyes around, "They even called Jie over as well."
Ever since Ye Mo heard the news that Geto Suguru was resurrected and lost his memory, and was being guarded by Gojo Kiri, he basically turned a blind eye and did not care.
Now that all four special grades have been gathered together at once, the scene created is even bigger than the One Hundred Demons Night Parade and the Shibuya Incident.
It is no exaggeration to say that the living forces gathered here account for half of the world of sorcery, and their attitude is truly extraordinary.
"It happened suddenly." Feeling that time was running out, Yega Zhengdao did not intend to elaborate. He sat up straight and said straight to the point, "I will try to explain it briefly."
“Two things in total.”
"This is the information gathered from the windows and moons of the General Office in various places." He spread out a document in his left hand and placed it in the middle of the long table. "Everyone can take a look at it."
"Although the crime rate and the number of cursed spirits born decrease every winter due to the cold weather and the snow, the rate is usually only between 10% and 30%. But this year, it has soared to 99%."
"That is to say..." Someone picked up the paper and started flipping through it.
"That's right." Ye Moth Zhengdao nodded and explained, "Since entering December, no new cursed spirits have been found. The rate at which humans give birth to cursed spirits has reached an unprecedented level of almost zero."
"All the cursed spirits you were tasked to destroy were created before December."
Gojo Satoru leaned back in his chair silently, his expression unrecognizable.
The absence of new cursed spirits should have been a cause for celebration. But if that were the case, why would Ye Moth's expression be so stern and deep?
"What's the second thing?" He pressed his fingers on his forehead, skipping over the so-called good news and asked directly.
"The second thing..." Yijizhi walked forward, turned on a laptop, and randomly connected it to the projector behind him.
As the projection cloth slowly unfolded, a vast expanse of white was revealed.
Ice, snow and cold air covered the entire land.
There are grass and leaves on the ground, crawling earthworms, ants and chirping cicadas, red-bellied squirrels gnawing fruits on the tree trunks, tree frogs with bulging bellies, umbrella-shaped mushrooms, gurgling rivers, fish in the river and animals drinking water by the river.
They all maintained the same movements they had in life, eyes open, unaware of the sudden chill that enveloped their bodies.
By moving the camera upwards, you can still vaguely see the lush rainforest not far away.
Lush green trees are surrounded by blooming flowers, and blue-black butterflies are resting on the stamens, their wings exuding a metallic luster.
The cold white gas floating on the ground followed the direction of the wind, crawling like a snake, bit by bit eating away the grass that was originally covered with green shade.
These creatures acted unconsciously, seemingly unaware of the danger.
A minute later, the fluttering wings of the waterfall butterfly were wrapped in crystal clear ice.
The screen slowly dimmed, stopping at the last frame of the butterfly.
There was silence in the room.
"This is a video shot by a foreign sorcerer in the rainforest." Ye Mo Zheng Dao said in a heavy tone, "He himself did not have time to escape from this area. He has already... I need to remind you that this is a second-level sorcerer."
The filming took only a few minutes, but it took only a few minutes to kill a second-level sorcerer. The signal it sent was obvious.
No wonder all those attending the meeting are at least first-level sorcerers.
However, this is not the point he wants to make.
"This is not an isolated case." Ye Moth listed several other videos shot on the computer on the projection screen and continued, "Similar situations have occurred in tropical, subtropical, temperate, and frigid zones."
"Wetlands, forests, fields, deserts, hills and plateaus, covering almost all types of climates and terrains," he said. "This cold is spreading at an extremely fast speed."
"Have you found the reason?" Nanami Kento raised his glasses and asked calmly.
Ye Mo Zheng Dao shook his head silently.
"This is just the beginning," added Yoshinobu Rakuganji. "According to the optimistic statistics of the Directorate General, this situation will cover the whole world within half a month."
This is just an optimistic statistic. What if it is not optimistic?
"In order to avoid causing anxiety and panic, most parts of the world blocked the news of this phenomenon." Ye Mo Zhengdao said, "But by the end of December at the latest, the news could not be concealed."
"......."
No one spoke.
"What do you want us to do?" asked Toudou Aoi.
"We hope..." Ye Moth Zheng Dao took a deep breath and then said slowly, "We hope to dispatch all the sorcerers who can be mobilized to go to the areas around the world where the cold air appears to find the reason for its birth."
"I have a question." After thinking for a while, Nanami Kento put down the information in his hand and looked up at the two principals sitting on the main chair. "You put the disappearance of the cursed spirit and the return of the ice age together. Do you think there is any connection between the two events?"
"That's my guess." Jiujiu Yuki, who had been slacking off for a long time, stood at the door. His usual relaxed and cheerful demeanor had disappeared.
She crossed her arms and faced everyone, explaining, "Cursed spirits and humans have always been in a relationship of mutual generation and destruction. Without the reduction of negative emotions, the process of the cursed spirit's birth came to an abrupt halt. It's hard for me not to think that this is a sign of some kind of disaster to come."
"Lady Tianyuan also said that this was a scene she had never seen in her more than a thousand years of life."
"Did you make this judgment based solely on this point?" Kusakabe Atsuya asked bluntly.
"Do you think there is a better explanation?" Jiujiu Yuki shrugged. "Could it be that everyone suddenly had a collective genetic mutation and evolved into Fushiguro Jiner?"
Fushiguro Shige was suddenly called out and knocked on the table: "Not just any Tom, Dick or Harry can become me."
"Oh, so even Shinji-kun is here." Kujukuyuki seemed to have just seen him. "It seems that the situation is really unusually serious."
"Everyone, get ready." She turned around, her long golden hair flowing, and said lightly, "Perhaps the end of mankind is about to come."
