237: Chapter 237 The Shock of Humanity on Earth
Three days had passed since the battle between Ye Yang and the Black Flood Dragon.
During this time, the Jianghai City Cyber Supervision Department had been in a state of constant activity.
This was because Mayor Lin of Jianghai City had issued an order to them: to exert every effort to sweep away and clear all information regarding dragon creatures appearing on the internet.
The leaders of the Cyber Supervision Department also understood the severity of the matter; if the citizens of the Great Xia Kingdom knew that dragon creatures from myths and legends had appeared in the real world, it would surely trigger a riot!
Just as the Jianghai City Cyber Supervision Department was busy working overtime for this, and the popular information about dragon creatures on the Jianghai City network was gradually thinning out—with the task seemingly nearing completion—
Suddenly.
A large number of photos and videos concerning that giant black dragon began to circulate on the internet!
...
With a massive body stretching three hundred meters long, every single dark scale on its body was the size of an adult, reflecting an intimidating, eerie cold glint under the light that made one shudder.
Pale golden blood flowed on the ground, and on its head, which was dozens of meters wide, was a massive vertical pupil like a demon's, filled with resentment and despair.
"What the hell is this?! Why are these videos and photos so high-definition? Who could have captured these images and videos from such a close distance?!"
The Jianghai City Cyber Supervision Department leader looked at the videos and photos on his phone screen, his face filled with rage!
Then he roared!
"Damn it! Didn't we immediately warn those media outlets and individuals who filmed the giant black dragon in the suburbs not to leak this video information? Don't they know that violating confidentiality agreements means rotting in prison?!"
"Quickly, go and block this news on the internet! Find the signal source of the video information and invite that bold fellow into the station!"
"Yes, sir!"
After a while, a staff member ran hurriedly to the leader.
"Reporting to the leader! We've found the signal source! It's in the southern suburbs of Jianghai City... and the phone number of this signal source is one with the special permissions of our internal personnel!"
"Who gave the permissions?!"
"Mayor Lin!"
"What? You're not joking... Holy shit!"
The Jianghai City Cyber Supervision Department leader suddenly remembered that a few months ago, Mayor Lin had found him and asked him to assign special permissions to a phone signal, making the calls and data usage unlimited; at that time, he had been curious about who the owner of this signal source was.
When he learned it was the southern suburbs of Jianghai City, he was filled with solemn respect.
He thought this signal source belonged to the military personnel monitoring the situation at Divine Phoenix Mountain outside the city.
But now, seeing that this special signal source was leaking video information of the giant black dragon, it was clearly not one of their official personnel...
"Who on earth is this guy... and what is the purpose of doing this?"
However, now was not the time to consider this issue. The Jianghai City Cyber Supervision Department leader turned and asked the staff member.
"How is the network situation in the city now?"
Beads of sweat broke out on the staff member's forehead. "Reporting to the leader... although our Cyber Supervision Department staff blocked the videos and topics regarding dragon creatures immediately, we still cannot stop the citizens of Jianghai City from discussing them heatedly."
"Sigh... I can't blame you. Dragon creatures hold extraordinary significance in the eyes of our Great Xia Kingdom citizens."
"Moreover, the video information about the dragon creatures is spreading across the entire country..."
"Sigh, we have no choice but to notify Mayor Lin."
...
"Do dragon creatures really exist in this world? This video couldn't be photoshopped, could it?!"
"No, there are many experts online. A large number of photography experts have already proven that the content in these images is real, and the credibility is extremely high!"
"And did you notice? The city officials have been clearing and blocking videos about dragon creatures on the internet..."
"Yes, many popular posts on the internet have abruptly disappeared, and I heard that many people who forwarded the dragon videos have been invited to the station to 'have tea'!"
"It's just a clumsy cover-up..."
As time passed, more and more people on the Jianghai City network began discussing dragon creatures.
"No wonder a pitch-black layer of dark clouds suddenly appeared in the suburbs of Jianghai City a few days ago, along with the sound of many missile explosions. It turns out a dragon creature appeared in Qinling!"
"This dragon creature looks quite terrifying, but it seems to be dead... Are our Jianghai City officials so powerful that they can actually eliminate dragon creatures?"
"In your dreams! I have a friend who was one of the soldiers dispatched to the edge of Qinling a while ago; he already received a notice of death in action, and rumors say that the entire unit of military personnel was wiped out..."
"Ah? That's an army of at least several thousand people!"
"Everyone, look at the surroundings where this dragon creature's corpse is located..."
"Did you notice? This is Divine Phoenix Mountain! It's highly likely that the Ancient Divine Phoenix killed this dragon creature!"
"Hiss... how is that possible? This dragon creature is a creature from myths and legends, and looking at that colossal size, I even struggle to breathe just from the aura emanating from the video. How could the Ancient Divine Phoenix possess such immense power!"
The discussion on the Jianghai City network was reaching a fever pitch. Seeing that the situation was out of control, the Jianghai City officials also gave up on clearing the information from the internet and remained silent.
Furthermore, the videos and information about the dragon creatures were rapidly spreading across Great Xia and even the rest of the world.
...
Lighthouse Country.
"The evil dragon from mythology actually appeared in the Great Xia Kingdom?! This is truly shocking news..."
"However, that demonic black dragon seems to be dead. The Great Xia Kingdom must have collected precious biological samples!"
"Issue an announcement to the Great Xia Kingdom. Research data on unknown biological samples is crucial to humanity. Our Lighthouse Country possesses Blue Star's top biological research technology; demand that they hand over a sample of the demonic black dragon!"
Sakura Country.
"A Divine Dragon appeared in the Great Xia Kingdom?! This is shocking news!"
"The Great Xia Kingdom is truly a vast and resourceful Celestial Empire, a land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers; it even has Divine Dragon creatures!"
"How foolish to let the Divine Dragon die like that. If this happened in our Sakura Country, we would surely have been able to control the Divine Dragon!"
Russia.
"A giant dragon?!"
"Looking at the giant dragon's size, it's simply unbelievable that a creature could evolve such a massive body. However, there are reports claiming that the Ancient Divine Phoenix killed the giant black dragon."
"Ura! The Ancient Divine Phoenix is that avian creature that wields the power of lightning, right?"
"It seems that avian creature possesses evolutionary secrets that we don't know about. We must find an opportunity to obtain a biological sample of that avian creature; this is very important for our Russia's Gene Serum experiments!"
Not only that.
Even the mysterious organization, the Divine Epoch Organization, which was conducting covert operations all over the world, was shocked by this news...
