Chapter 298 Supplemental Treaty!
Meanwhile, the Science Alliance had built an online peak summit as quickly as possible, inviting the leaders of major powers to enter into talks.
Soon, all the leaders of the major powers had gathered online!
In some of these powers' regions, it was still deep into the night, like in Great Russia, but not a single one expressed dissatisfaction.
Everyone was eager in the meeting, discussing the authenticity of the message released by the Theological Alliance!
On uniformly large screens that were linked, each displayed leaders who held the lives of billions of humans in their hands.
In the center, there was also a live video of the Godspeed Golden Eagle captured by Starlink.
This time, the Godspeed Golden Eagle didn't conceal its aura at all, flying brazenly between heaven and earth, so it was very easily captured.
Many of the leaders simply glanced at the video of the Godspeed Golden Eagle and noticed that its speed had increased yet again from before.
With no terrain to obstruct it, the Godspeed Golden Eagle's speed had already broken twenty to thirty times the sound barrier.
This speed had only ever been achieved by the Arctic Wolf King, apart from the Godspeed Golden Eagle!
Even the elusive American Jaguar, the American God, couldn't reach such a speed.
This speed was something that even the newest Seventh Generation Warplane 2.0 version couldn't track and capture; only the globally scattered Starlink was able to shoot some footage.
Even with the aid of Starlink, it was absolutely impossible to hit an Exotic Beast flying at such speed with ballistic missiles.
Because the speed that the Godspeed Golden Eagle currently exhibited was faster than that of ballistic missiles!
However, the leaders were only calmly scanning the video of the Godspeed Golden Eagle and quickly shifted their gaze away.
What they were more concerned about was the message released by the Theological Alliance, which was too horrific.
After the online peak summit began and even before the experts from the Science Alliance could speak,
the leader of the African Union took the lead and said, "I want to ask if the hundred-day countdown mentioned by the Theological Alliance is true? Is the apocalypse really coming? Are all these disasters we humans are experiencing now not considered the apocalypse?
What would the real apocalypse look like? Is it the scene described by the Theological Alliance where there is darkness without daylight, and those totem gods that have passed will return to this world, feasting upon all living creatures as their blood food?"
Because of the African Union's smooth progress in the battlefield against mutated creatures in recent years, and the emergence of many strong new Human talents, the African Union's status among the major powers had also been rising.
Moreover, this series of questions from the leader of the African Union indeed raised all the doubts and worries present in everyone's minds!
After the leader of the African Union finished speaking, the other leaders were quick to echo his questions toward the highest-ranking experts and scholars in the Science Alliance.
It seemed as if all the answers to the world's problems could be found with them.
This was a long-standing reverence for the highest knowledge and an inertial belief in science without conditions!
But this time, the top experts in the Science Alliance remained silent for a long time and did not provide an answer that would resolve everyone's confusion.
Because they also did not know the authenticity of these matters, they had endless questions in their minds when faced with the statements of the Theological Alliance!
Initially, they all thought that the Theological Alliance's statement was only meant to disturb public sentiment and once again destabilize the major powers!
But after calming down and thinking it over, if the statement was false, the Theological Alliance would be destroying the image of omniscience and the spiritual belief they had been building for a long time!
The cost of spreading such a rumor would be too great for them!
Thus, even the experts in the Science Alliance were full of questions at this moment.
Yet, faced with the expectant gazes of the leaders, one of the seasoned and prudent experts still spoke up, "Regarding the Theological Alliance's statement on the hundred-day countdown to the apocalypse, we cannot confirm its truth at the moment; however, regarding the revival of totems and deities, our research from multiple sources has revealed some Totem Pillars and divine statues do indeed contain a Divine Substance that so far has been undetectable,
On the surface, this Divinity appears dull and dusty, like ashes, but on closer examination, we've found it possesses tremendous energy and life fluctuations. We do not rule out the possibility that, under certain specific conditions, Divine Substance could revive on its own and re-aggregate consciousness,
However, we believe that if consciousness were to re-aggregate, it would form a new life form, as current scientific methods cannot prove that consciousness, let alone Spiritual Soul Force, could be preserved from many centuries ago. Even if it were preserved, it would likely only be fragments of past memories retained within the Divine Substance."
After his statement, these words didn't dispel the doubts and concerns of the other leaders.
About Divine Substance, the major powers had already found some of it.
Yet looking around the world, events involving the revival of Divine Substance were few and far between.
Even the very few incidents where Divinity had revived, it had sheltered many of the worshiping humans.
Like in India Country, amidst the slaughter of humans and temple monks by the Blood Frenzy Python and its Serpent Swarm, Divine Substance from several Buddha statues surged into the sky and evolved into golden lights.
In that battle, they held off the Bloodthirsty Python and its swarm, enabling many people and temple monks to escape.
Therefore, leaders of the major powers didn't see Divine Substance as a high threat to humanity.
