397: Unknown Terror

After he finished speaking, seeing Yang Dian fall into a long silence, Han Zhang couldn't help but ask, "So, what do you think?"

Yang Dian flicked his fingers twice: "I want to go see it myself."

"Won't it be a bit dangerous?" Han Zhang frowned.

"The Alien Planet is, after all, the Dragon's home ground."

"Even if you have strength far exceeding the Star-Patrolling Realm, being ganged up on by over two thousand Star-Patrolling Realm Dragons, or even more, wouldn't be pleasant, would it?"

"It wouldn't be pleasant," Yang Dian admitted with a nod.

A person's stamina is limited.

Even someone as strong as Yang Dian couldn't fight for long when going all out:

"But I'm not going to single-handedly challenge the entire Planet 3 head-on."

"If I can't win, I can still run. I've mastered the essence of guerrilla warfare."

"With the Dimension Butterfly, as long as I don't seek death in places like black holes, ordinary people can't keep me."

At this point, Yang Dian materialized his Qi and blood, condensing a Dragon claw on his fingertip and clashing it a few times, producing a 'clang-clang' sound.

"And I won't rashly enter the Grotto-heaven space suspected to be inhabited by Stia."

"I can completely hunt Dragons, killing dozens of Star-Patrolling Realm Dragons a day."

"If Stia is alive, I don't believe she can sit still."

"If she can still endure that, I'll throw dozens or hundreds of high-yield nuclear bombs into that Grotto-heaven space and see how long she can tolerate it."

Han Zhang rubbed his temples: "Wouldn't doing that trigger magnetic field turbulence, and consequently lead to disaster?"

Yang Dian twisted his neck twice: "How strong can a disaster be?"

"The planet can't just collapse into a black hole to get me, can it?"

"I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yang Dian suddenly felt a chilling sensation rise in his heart. Starting from his tailbone, a wave of coldness instantly swept through his entire body.

All the hairs on his body suddenly stood on end, goosebumps appeared all over, and he shivered involuntarily.

'This feeling...'

'Am I being targeted by some great terror?'

He glanced at Han Zhang and Professor Shen Fei, who seemed oblivious, and instinctively opened the high-end group chat.

As expected, the group was already in an uproar.

"@Yang Dian, are you kidding Old Daoist? Old Daoist suddenly felt a great terror, as if he's being watched." - Qingcheng Mountain Daoist Qingfeng

"I have the same feeling." - Tang Shichang

"I also sensed an unknown terror. Daoist Priest, you're on Qingcheng Mountain, Old Master Tang, you're on Zhongnan Mountain, and I'm currently in Western Xinjiang dealing with planetary debris that fell from a dimensional rift. We are far enough apart." - Mo Yunshan

Director Mo's meaning was clear: it wasn't Yang Dian playing tricks; a great terror had genuinely appeared.

"Really? Director Mo, aren't you an extraordinary high-level combatant like me? Why didn't I feel any great terror?" - Lei Ming

"Director Lei, you Awakened lightning-attribute abilities. Your intuition and malice perception abilities aren't as strong as a Martial Artist's, so it's normal not to sense it." - Zhao Hao

"@Zhao Hao, I remember you Awakened a mental-type talent, right? Did you sense it?" - Lei Ming

"I sensed it. I thought I was going to die." - Zhao Hao

"So what happened? Why did this feeling of impending doom suddenly arise?" - Tang Shichang

"I just contacted some people in Western Europe and North America and found that some of them also felt watched by a great terror, as if facing death directly." - Mo Yunshan

"Beep~ Detected unknown signal source attempting to tamper with the server. Resisting..." - Zero

"Beep~ Resistance failed. Unknown signal source tampered with the network System through unknown means. Acquiring network data..." - Zero

"Beep~ Physical disconnection failed. The physical disconnection server is still being infiltrated..." - Zero

"Beep~ Unknown signal source disappeared. Reacquiring server permissions. Running self-check..." - Zero

"Beep~ Self-check complete. No abnormalities found. Requesting manual intervention for detection..." - Zero

The moment Zero's voice fell, the hairs standing on Yang's body fell back into place, and the goosebumps that had risen also disappeared.

Han Zhang, seeing Yang Dian's unusual state, said with a solemn expression, "Did something happen? Why do I feel like something is wrong with you?"

Yang Dian reached out and rubbed his wrists twice: "It felt like I was being watched by something terrifying just now."

Han Zhang's pupils constricted, and he immediately opened his wristband.

Soon after, the crimson alert message from Zero appeared in his vision. While quickly browsing the information, he began to speak:

"First, it should not be Planet 3."

"Planet 3 has not developed technology; it's impossible for it to arbitrarily tamper with servers and steal information from them."

"Second, it might be the Great Star God that found us."

"There's a high possibility that Silicon-based life, or even digital life, capable of freely invading networks, could have emerged on the Great Star God's body."

"Third, we have been targeted by a cosmic-level civilization."

"That cosmic-level civilization scanned Earth with technology far beyond ours and invaded our network."

"Fourth, Earth might have been observed by an Alien Planet."

"The great terror you felt is a precursor to Earth being dimensionally invaded."

At this point, Han Zhang let out a heavy sigh: "However, no matter which possibility it is, we need to activate the Spark Plan in advance to leave a Spark for civilization..."
