After the evil mother-in-law was reborn, the whole family collapsed

Ruan Yaoyao sat quietly in Minister Qin's meeting room, and the air around her seemed to be frozen by the solemn atmosphere.

Right in front of the meeting, a huge screen emitting a cold blue light, clearly displaying the map of the entire planet.

On the map, densely packed marks twinkle like stars, and each mark represents a small world that has appeared.

Looking around, all parts of the world have been quietly infiltrated by these mysterious small worlds, especially in Xia Country. The distribution of small worlds almost completely covers the entire country's territory, like an invisible big net that is slowly tightening.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the screen, and their expressions became increasingly solemn.

Someone broke the silence first, his voice full of worry: "We originally thought that these 'marking' and 'invasion' would be a slow process, but reality slapped us hard in the face. Now it seems that their advancement speed is far beyond our expectations."

An expert wearing black-framed glasses pushed up his glasses and added, "In my opinion, it is very likely that the alien civilization has already noticed that we have discovered their existence, so they have accelerated the process."

As soon as these words were spoken, a low murmur of discussion broke out in the conference room, and everyone's face was filled with anxiety and worry.

Indeed, the current situation is extremely serious.

Although the current technological level of Blue Planet has made great progress in some areas, it still seems powerless when facing these mysterious little worlds from alien civilizations.

In terms of the level of cultivation, although it has developed to a certain extent in the country, it is still far from being able to cope with such a large-scale alien crisis.

So, at this critical moment, where should Blue Star go?

At this time, a young staff member stood up and proposed with a firm look: "I think we can make this public. The public has the right to know. Only by letting everyone know the current situation can we gather the strength of the entire society and jointly deal with this crisis."

As soon as he finished speaking, a heated debate broke out.

Opponents shook their heads. One senior official frowned and said, "Public? That's absolutely not possible! Once the news leaks out, it will inevitably cause a large-scale panic in society. Once the public's panic gets out of control, the chaos caused may be more terrible than the alien invasion itself. By then, the situation will be even more difficult to deal with."

Ruan Yaoyao listened quietly to the discussion of the crowd, and felt secretly anxious.

She was pulled here temporarily, and thought they were discussing whether the many newly awakened people who had appeared in Xia Country recently should be made public. But... when she looked up, she saw the big map and was shocked.

She listened for a while and whispered to Minister Qin beside her: "Is the situation so serious?"

Minister Qin said to her with a serious face: "The situation may be more serious than we expected. The most serious thing is that even though so many cultivators have awakened now, the speed is still not as fast as the speed of the emergence of small worlds..."

Ruan Yaoyao's heart tightened and her eyes turned to the map covered with markings again.

Those flickering lights now seemed to have turned into pairs of prying eyes, sending a chill down her spine.

Of course she knew how "dangerous" the small world was, otherwise she would not have gone down there personally, for fear that the third brother, with his limited cultivation, would be killed in it.

With the Third Brother's skills, he is already a top player in the national team. If it were anyone else...

Ruan Yaoyao wished there were a few more masters like her in the world, so that Blue Star would have a better chance of winning.

Ruan Yaoyao kept harassing the little golden dragon in her heart, asking it to come out quickly.

The situation is so serious now, why are you still sleeping?

Come out quickly and find a solution.

Unfortunately, after she harassed it for a long time, the little golden dragon did not respond at all.

Just as everyone was arguing, a white-haired old man slowly spoke up: "If it really doesn't work, maybe we can treat the small world as a 'game' and open it to the citizens."

His voice was steady but with a hint of helplessness. "In this way, we can not only use the power of the people to explore the small world and obtain the resources and information that may exist in it, but also alleviate everyone's panic to a certain extent and turn this crisis into a challenge for the whole people to participate in."

This proposal was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

Everyone began to re-examine this seemingly bold idea and think about its feasibility.

Someone expressed his objection: "The danger level of the small world is too high. The people who have just awakened have too low cultivation base. They won't be able to do anything if they go in. Instead, they might lose their lives."

The atmosphere in the conference room became increasingly tense, and everyone's eyes were focused on the opponents.

He stood up, propped his hands on the table, and said with a serious and anxious expression: "Think about it, those small worlds are full of dangers, with all kinds of strange creatures and weird environments. If you are not careful, you will be doomed. Our people have just started to learn to cultivate immortals, and most of them haven't even mastered the basic spells. If they rush in like this, they are simply playing with their lives!"

There was a slight tremor in his voice, and it was obvious that he was extremely worried about the safety of the people.

At this time, another participant could not help but ask, "What should we do? This is not okay, that is not okay. Should we just let the small world develop recklessly? Let the alien civilization erode our world bit by bit?"

"In those days, our ancestors were able to win the victory under such difficult conditions with their tenacious will and fearless sacrifice. Now that we are facing alien civilizations, are we going to retreat? We have advanced technology, the rising power of immortal cultivation, and the unity of all the people of Blue Star. How can we give up so easily!" The speaker's face flushed, his voice trembled with excitement, and his clenched fists slammed heavily on the conference table with a dull sound. His angry words instantly echoed in the conference room.

He glanced at everyone in the conference room with sharp eyes, his eyes full of unwillingness and determination.

"I understand everyone's concerns about the safety of the people, but we cannot give up resistance because of fear of sacrifice. We can formulate a comprehensive plan and gradually guide the people to participate in the fight against alien civilizations while ensuring safety. For example, we can first closely monitor the small world from the outside, use unmanned detection equipment to go deep into it to collect information, and at the same time speed up the people's cultivation training and scientific and technological equipment research and development."

A middle-aged general in military uniform slowly stood up. He had an upright posture and his eyes showed determination and courage.

A researcher also stood up, pushed his glasses, and said clearly: "From a scientific point of view, although the emergence of the small world has brought crises, it may also hide opportunities. We can use this opportunity to increase our research on the integration of cultivation and technology. Perhaps in the small world, we can find key technologies or resources to enhance the overall strength of Blue Star. This is the resource we obtained from the small world before, and we have achieved the following results..."

……

They have to make it public. Things have come to this point and they are afraid that if they delay any further, they will not even have the last chance to resist.

In the conference room, the atmosphere was so heavy that it was almost suffocating. Everyone's eyes showed worry and a determination to fight to the death.

After several rounds of heated discussions, the proposal to publicly announce to the public the threat of alien civilizations and the existence of small worlds gradually gained the upper hand among many considerations.

This decision was largely due to Ruan Yaoyao - she could refine keys and connect these worlds together.

In this way, they can divide the public into two parts. One part is the inexperienced newcomers who first enter the small world that has been controlled by the state to gain experience.

In a relatively safe and controllable environment, let them accumulate experience and improve their cultivation.

Another group of "old people" can enter small worlds with higher levels of danger to gain experience, or even expand into new sections.

……

Duan Yingbo is a senior high school student. As soon as he got home, he received a notice from his class teacher, asking them to watch the 7:30 p.m. news broadcast today because there was important news to be revealed.

Duan Yingbo was still very confused. What important news could be more important than his preparation for the senior high school entrance exam?

While mumbling, he threw his heavy schoolbag onto the sofa and slumped down on it. He picked up the snacks on the table, tore open the package and stuffed them into his mouth, his mind still thinking about the difficult math problems he had not figured out in class today.

As the time approached 7:30, Duan Yingbo reluctantly picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.

The familiar theme song on TV sounded, and then the host's serious and solemn voice came: "Today, we will inform the people of the whole country of a major news concerning the future of Blue Planet."

Duan Yingbo carried the bowl and chopsticks and sat down on the sofa from the dining table.

His parents didn't stop him because they knew he would have to write the test paper after watching the news.

Children in their third year of high school are under great academic pressure, so it’s okay for them to “indulge” themselves occasionally.

"Recently, a large number of mysterious small worlds have appeared all over the world. These small worlds are caused by alien civilizations. Their wide distribution has posed a serious threat to the Blue Planet..."

The host's voice echoed in the living room. Duan Yingbo widened his eyes and opened his mouth slightly.

The words "Everyone Cultivates Immortality" and "Adventures in the Small World" were like bombshells that kept exploding in his mind.

He couldn't believe his ears. It all sounded like something from a science fiction movie. How could it suddenly appear in real life?

"Dad, Mom, did I hear it wrong? Why did I hear something like National Cultivation and Small World Adventure?"

His parents were also shocked: "You heard it right, we heard it too. Did you put it on the wrong channel?"

Duan Yingbo quickly picked up the remote control and frantically changed channels, hoping to find a normal program to prove that this was just a prank.

However, every channel was broadcasting the same content, and reality cruelly told him that all this was true.

At this time, Duan Yingbo's cell phone was vibrating wildly, and there were constant messages in the class group.

The students made all kinds of surprised and confused expressions and words, and everyone was stunned by this sudden news.

Some people said: "Isn't this a dream? Cultivating immortals and living in a small world, this is too outrageous!"

Some people also asked: "What about our college entrance examination? Can it still proceed as normal?"

Duan Yingbo felt mixed emotions when he read the news.

His originally planned life in high school, in which he was focused on his dream of getting into his ideal university, seemed to have become blurred in the face of this shocking news.

In every corner of the city, similar scenes are happening in countless families.

Some people fell into panic and began to hoard supplies as if the end of the world was coming; some people were full of curiosity and couldn't wait to learn more about cultivation and the small world; and some people, like Duan Yingbo's family, were in a state of confusion and at a loss.

At this time, Duan Yingbo's mother received a call from his aunt. The aunt's voice in the receiver was a little nervous and excited: "Sister, I want to tell you that I have received a notice and I have to go to the small world for training."

The cup in Duan Yingbo's mother's hand almost slipped, and she said in shock: "Are you a cultivator?"

My aunt replied affirmatively from the other end of the phone: "Yes, I just awakened last month. I have only been practicing for less than a month. I didn't expect that I would have this ability."

"Why didn't you tell us about this?"

"That's not... there was a confidentiality agreement at the time. But it's different now, the country has made it public, hehe..."

Since it was a confidentiality agreement, Duan Yingbo's mother couldn't say anything, but she was a little worried: "I don't know what the small world is like, I hope it's not too dangerous!"

My aunt smiled casually and said, "It's okay. The country must have made arrangements. I will be careful when I go there."

……

Duan Yingbo was extremely surprised. He did not expect Xiaoji to be a cultivator. He snatched the phone from his mother and asked his aunt a lot of questions.

My aunt described in detail the training situations of some immortal cultivators on the phone. She also mentioned that in order to deal with the crisis of small worlds, the country has specially developed a related APP, which contains popular science knowledge of immortal cultivation, basic information about small worlds, and an entrance for signing up to participate in training.

Duan Yingbo couldn't wait to take out his mobile phone and search in the app store, and soon found the APP recommended by the state.

The APP icon is a mysterious blue vortex, as if hiding endless mysteries.

He clicked to download, and the progress bar moved forward little by little. The whole family stared at the mobile phone screen with bated breath, as if a door to a new world was about to open.

At the same time, Duan Yingbo's father was browsing the ordering page for the state-designated health monitoring bracelet.

It is said that this bracelet can not only monitor the physical condition in real time, but also assist cultivators in sensing the fluctuations of spiritual energy. It is an indispensable tool for novice cultivators.

Even someone as old as Duan Yingbo's aunt can awaken. Duan Yingbo's father thinks that since he is only a few years older, he should be able to awaken too, so it's better to be prepared.
