Inside Qingfu Academy, Mu Qingchan entered the conference room with a group of people and saw a middle-aged man sitting in a chair. Upon noticing their arrival, the man immediately frowned and glanced at the Hao Hai Squad, saying, "Even when you go out on missions, you need to be mindful of your impact. Why did you have to get involved with those people celebrating the Sea God Festival?"
"Instructor, it wasn't our intention; the situation was just like that at the time, and we had no choice," Mu Qingchan hurriedly replied.
"But now, the complaint hotline for Qingfu Academy has been overwhelmed. They know you are my students, and they are cursing my ancestors!" The middle-aged man said this before sitting down heavily and seriously looking at both teams. He then addressed Lin Han and the others, "Top students from the Military Academy? Have you encountered those people worshipping the Sea God Trident? In your investigation, can you try to avoid them as much as possible?"
"It's not that I can't handle the criticism directed at my ancestors; it's just that those people might escalate the situation further."
"Zhang Jiaoxu, we have already encountered those Demon Creatures. I believe we will resolve these issues soon," Mu Qingchan said helplessly.
"Alright, just focus on investigating these matters. As for the complaints from residents in coastal areas, I will take responsibility for that." After saying this, Zhang Chengxian left the conference room but gave his students a knowing look.
"Try to keep a low profile," Mu Qingchan urged quickly.
Seeing their interaction, Lin Han and the others were momentarily stunned. They thought Wu Qinghong was already casual enough, but Zhang Chengxian seemed to adopt a completely hands-off approach.
As an instructor, he only needed to bear the pressure of public opinion for his students.
"Take a seat; we need to resolve this quickly. Currently, we only have one piece of information: those mists seem to require certain conditions to appear," Mu Qingchan leaned against the edge of the table. Being not very tall, she could engage in equal conversation with Lin Han.
"I calculated that when those mists first appeared, energy from the seabed in that area began to rise rapidly," she continued.
"So that large shadow might be something rising from the seabed?" Xue Wushuang immediately asked.
"There's a possibility," Mu Qingchan replied cautiously. "This is merely a data hypothesis; I can't draw any conclusions yet."
"Then can we prove that the Sea God Trident exists and is related to those missing persons?" Lin Han turned to ask.
He had indeed noticed issues arising from those strange rituals and dances.
However, regarding those who believed in the Sea God Trident, as long as it could be proven that it was unrelated to this incident, he would never attempt to change their beliefs.
The Sea God Trident has existed for hundreds of years; the disappearance of Beast Masters is a recent issue. These two matters cannot be completely linked together.
Qin Luoxi spoke these words, quickly shifting the topic.
During the strange ritual they held, I used my Reincarnation Talent to take a look, and the energy it emitted was somewhat related to those Dark Auras.
How did this lead back to the Azure Abyss? Zhou Qingqing immediately became alert.
These people had previously been tormented by the Dark Envoy to the point of losing their composure, and now, those memories were still vivid in their minds.
At that moment, Lin Han suddenly thought of something and turned his gaze toward the Hao Hai Squad, calling out, "Xiao Liu!"
Immediately, Xiao Liu stepped out from among the group, looking somewhat apologetic, especially since he had even experienced side effects during the previous battle.
"Lin Captain, do you have any instructions?" he asked softly.
"What is your relationship with that old man? How does he know you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Liu's face instantly paled as he assumed it was about those people. He stammered an explanation:
