As more people saw This Man's pattern and more reports about This Man surfaced, this strange unfamiliar face had gradually entered the public's view.

A day later, on the streets of Los Angeles.

“I'm your reporter, Julia. Behind me now is a huge parade. We can see that more than ten thousand people have gathered here. These people claim that they have been called by G.o.d. They've spontaneously walked into the streets, propagating this G.o.d to pa.s.sers-by. However, this G.o.d may not be G.o.d, but someone known simply as This Man…

“Among them, there's no lack of former devout believers and even pastors, but at this moment, they've abandoned the Bible and their previous beliefs…”

As the camera zoomed in, one could hear in the video slogans such as “This Man is our Savior from heaven, This Man is supreme”, and so on. Behind Julia, there was an endless crowd of people. These people kept shouting while waving logos made by This Man, following the flow of the ma.s.ses in the street.

“What is This Man? Is he a person? Or is he a G.o.d… This is Julia from CNN reporting to you.”

Sanimo looked at the news report on the TV in a daze. He shook his head and picked up the remote control to change the channel.

“This Man — according to legend, everyone who sees his face will dream of his existence after going to sleep. This phenomenon cannot be explained by scientists yet.”

After he skipped CNN, Sanimo found the next channel, NBC, also discussing the topic of This Man.

The host Alan looked serious. “Some people think that This Man is an omen of the imminent death of humankind because before living things die, their thoughts will converge as one. Others think that This Man is the manifestation of fragments from humanity's collective consciousness. It was born in the collective consciousness of human beings, so it has the ability to travel through dreams.

“There are also some who think that This Man is none other than a G.o.d… So, what is This Man? What are the benefits and harms that he will bring to mankind?”

Hearing this, Sanimo could not refrain from changing to another channel.

This time, he landed on ABC TV.

“This Man is a demon from h.e.l.l. I must judge him!”

Two men in suits stood on the stage. One was shorter and the other was taller. At this time, the shorter man suddenly roared, “This Man, you're a demon from h.e.l.l! I shall judge you right now!”

With that, he shut his eyes tightly and pointed his finger at the camera. “I'll judge you in the name of G.o.d!”

The taller man on the side immediately closed his eyes when he heard these words. He clasped his hands together in a moved and profound manner, appearing to be praying.

“You're a saboteur! You're a killer, you're a demon!”

The shorter man yelled pa.s.sionately, “Get out of here. Your power has been destroyed by me. Get out of here, because I shall put you on trial!

“I demand, I demand, I demand that you disappear immediately! I cast you out of your kingdom!”

As he spoke, he pointed his finger to the ground and chanted, “You've fallen and crawled on the ground, just as G.o.d commanded you when he put his foot on your head in the Garden of Eden! This Man, you'll be vanquished, no longer able to run amuck!”

Hearing this, the taller man hurriedly shouted, “Never again! Never again!”

“The catastrophe has ended and Northern America has recovered its former tranquility and peace… Hallelujah!”

Seeing this, Sanimo could not help but twitch his mouth and he simply turned off the TV in the dormitory.

As This Man was everywhere on the Internet, Sanimo did not go online at all but had turned on the TV. Who would have thought that the programs on TV were completely taken over by This Man as well?

What he did not know was that at this time, the entire Earth Federation was already a.s.sessing this matter seriously…

Currently, more than a hundred representatives had gathered in the conference room of the Earth Federation headquarters.

“Everything that is happening now is very abnormal.”

The representative from Northern America wore a somber expression. “After our preliminary summary, we've ascertained that all humans who have seen the picture of This Man will dream of him that night and there has never been an exception.”

“Is that so?”

The representatives of the other continents looked at each other when they heard these words. Among them, the representative of the European Continent said immediately, “But there's no such situation on our side…”

“Could it be because This Man hasn't spread that far yet?”

The representative of Northern America could not help but say bitterly, “Maybe in a few days, a similar situation will happen on your side.”

“The picture of This Man has indeed spread to where we are.”

The representative of Oceania shrugged. “But unfortunately, except for you guys, the entire world has not come across any similar phenomenon. Perhaps the riots and demonstrations on your side are due to other factors…”

The representative of the Northern American Continent naturally would not believe these words. He turned his head and looked at the representatives of other continents. “What about the rest of you?”

“We haven't come across that yet.”

The representative of Mainland China replied with a calm expression, “Moreover, everything about This Man, including his name and the pattern, have been blocked by our entire network. Although some people claimed that they dreamed of This Man, after we summoned them to local police stations, we discovered that they were all rumors to gain attention.”

Upon hearing this, the representative of Northern America was astounded.

After asking around, there was no similar situation in other parts of the earth except Northern America. At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door of the conference room and an a.s.sistant walked in. She leaned down and said something in the ear of the Northern American representative.

“Are you serious?”

There was a burst of shock on the face of the Northern American representative. He suddenly raised his head and stared at the a.s.sistant.

“It has been confirmed.”

The a.s.sistant nodded.

“I see. You may leave…”

The representative of the Northern American Continent looked solemn and he waved his hand to send the a.s.sistant away.

“What happened?”

The representative of the European Continent asked immediately.

“Our Ministry of Defense verified one thing just now.”

He took a deep breath, wearing a glum expression. “There are some Northern American citizens who have fled abroad due to the riots. They found that after they left Northern America, they no longer dreamed of This Man…”

After hearing this, the representatives of the other continents had varying reactions. It was hard to tell what they were thinking.

“It seems that we've found the reason the This Man phenomenon hasn't occurred in other continents.”

The representative of the European Continent pushed up his gla.s.ses after hearing this. “This is a regional phenomenon, only within Northern America?”

“If this speculation is true, it's even more frightening…”

The representative of Mainland China immediately said, “Because this represents two possibilities. First, This Man's influence is limited in scope; second, the other party only wants to attack the Northern American Continent.

“But no matter which explanation it is, it means that This Man or the phenomenon of This Man, is likely to be man-made…”

“Man-made?”

Everyone looked surprised. They were all elected as the official representatives of every continent in the Earth Federation, so their IQ was higher than average. Therefore, when this was said, the implications of this possibility occurred to them at once.

“Oh no!”

The representative of Northern America seemed to have thought of something. He stood up abruptly, then reached into his collar and took out a pendant shaped like a cross. “Everyone, if everything you've hypothesized just now is true, it means that the other party is attacking Northern America. I'm going to use this year's emergency quota for the Quantum Deity system. There should be no objections from you, right?”

As he spoke, he glanced at the representative of Mainland China.

“Of course. The Earth Federation is intricately connected, allies through thick and thin. We in Mainland China also don't wish to see Northern America being defeated by unknown forces.”

The representative of Mainland China smiled and took out the pendant under his collar, only his pendant was in the shape of a twisting dragon.

“What about the representatives of the other continents?”

The representative of the Northern America Continent looked at the others.

“No objections.”

“Seconded!”

“Seconded!”

Everyone took out their pendants and voiced their agreement.

The congress of the Earth Federation was extremely efficient. After all authorized representatives had agreed to Northern America's request, everyone immediately walked toward the channel where the quantum computer Adam was housed.

After intensive inspections, everyone was even irradiated with X-rays in a sealed room. After confirming that there were no other objects on everyone's body, they got onto the electromagnetic levitation elevator.

The case of Buckle Murphy, the representative of Northern America, more than a month ago, was still vivid in their minds. He had hidden an object behind his eyes and brought it into the quantum laboratory in an attempt to destroy the quantum computer, Adam.

Fortunately, the quantum computer was physically isolated in super bulletproof gla.s.s and he finally failed to open it.

Still, after this incident, the security for the quantum computer Adam had been taken to a higher level and no person was allowed to enter the quantum core area. If one wanted to enter, one must be accompanied by at least three people.

At this time, the many representatives stepped into the quantum core area one by one. After that, the representatives of Northern America, Mainland China, the North Sea, and Europe stood on all sides of the quantum computer and at the same time, they raised their pendants.

In the next second, the quantum computer suddenly emitted four rays of light, s.h.i.+ning on the four pendants through the gla.s.s.

A wondrous scene took place. These four pendants directly rose from the palms of everyone's hands and were suspended in mid-air!

At the same time, this quantum computer suddenly trembled slightly, making clanking sounds like the collision of glazed gla.s.s. At the same time, it composed speech that seemed to be formed by the collision of jade objects —

“Ident.i.ty confirmed!”

As this voice spoke, the representative of Northern America immediately took a step forward and said eagerly, “Adam, enter the directional prediction mode and predict all information about This Man!”

“Please confirm that the Northern America Continent will consume this year's prediction quota and the prediction is related to the occurrence of the 'This Man' incident in Northern America?”

The quantum computer verified again.

“Confirmed!”

With the order from the representative of Northern America, the quantum computer suddenly broke out into a harsh hum while it vibrated slowly at a frequency visible to the naked eye…

If one had not witnessed all this, who would have imagined that the quantum computer, which was far beyond the scope of human technology, was operating in such a manner that was unheard of…

Seeing this, everyone took back their pendants again, put them in their pockets, and then exited the quantum core area in an orderly manner.

After leaving the quantum core zone, the representative of the Northern America Continent secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He looked around at everyone and said sincerely, “No matter what the final prediction is, I hope that if we can't solve the problem, you can convince your governments to help those of us in Northern America.”

“Of course, we will not stand idly by.”

Everyone nodded and agreed.

However, before they had even finished agreeing, the laboratory's broadcast made a sudden announcement. “Emergency meeting, emergency meeting, representatives from all continents, please go to the conference room quickly! Repeat, emergency meeting…”

“It's out so soon?”

The representatives of all the continents were taken aback for a moment and hurried to the conference room. In less than two minutes, everyone had returned to the conference room again.

Even so, after coming to the conference room, the expression of the Northern American representative sank.

On the computer screen of a supercomputer in the conference room, a large number of disturbance curves had emerged.

There were a lot of complicated values marked on it. These values were so complicated that only this group of representatives could understand them. At this time, seeing the data on the screen, the representatives of the continents could not help inhaling sharply.

“This is a crisis disturbance curve!”

The representative of the European Continent looked anxious with a hint of anger. “This kind of curve means that it's a matter of life and death for the Northern American Continent, but why did Adam not warn us before?”

“Perhaps because this is a disaster in Northern America, but it isn't a disaster to humans in the rest of the world?”

The representative of the Indian Continent immediately guessed. “After all, it's just a computer which hasn't been programmed with human emotions and thoughts?”

“No, Adam's ability is known to everyone here. A quantum computer with this kind of computing power can simulate the evolution of everything in the world. It's impossible that it wouldn't understand what the demise of Northern America means to the entire human civilization!”

The representative of Oceania immediately explained, “It's smarter than you and me here!”

“This isn't the time to talk about this, gentlemen!”

The representative of Northern America was already like a cat on a hot tin roof. He walked to the computer in two or three steps and began to retrieve other information. He had to know — what This Man was, who created it, and how they should solve it.

However, as he looked over the information sent by Adam, he was rooted to the ground in shock.

This was because he found that, besides the possibility of Northern America's destruction, there was nothing else in the computer.

In regards to all predictions regarding This Man, the quantum computer was like a blank slate…
