Chapter 253: 249 The Method of Sealing

As this thought flashed through his mind, He Jia'an, in a daze, seemed to see a figure that shouldn't have been there appear in the corner of a collapsed building.

How could it be such a coincidence?

Could it be that you are fighting these Abnormals in another way?

Yu Lianyun...

After hearing what He Jia'an said, the members of the Chosen Alliance looked at each other, but they also knew that what He Jia'an said was not unreasonable.

If sacrifice is unavoidable, one should indeed ensure that major issues are minimized and first expel the Thousand-Illusion Moon from this world.

"But how are we supposed to drive her away?" one Chosen Alliance member said. "There is too little in history about the Thousand-Illusion Moon, and according to the ancient history known to our alliance, there is absolutely no historical material regarding resisting the Thousand-Illusion Moon."

A large part of the reason for this situation is that the Thousand-Illusion Moon is not a deity that likes believers; this Alien God is almost absolutely indifferent to life. Most of the time, she does not respond to the lives that call upon her, and even if she does respond, she might just think that more food has rung the dinner bell itself.

How could an Alien God who doesn't even grant a single miracle or blessing have any believers?

She doesn't even know how to gaslight.

He Jia'an was also slightly stunned. As the former captain of the Zodiac Team of the Shenzhou Mysterious Group, he considered the data on the top ten numbered Alien Gods to be deeply ingrained in his soul. However, the organization's records on the Thousand-Illusion Moon were also very limited, and there were no records of expelling the Thousand-Illusion Moon within them.

The only record he knew of regarding the Thousand-Illusion Moon being repelled was when a sea monster, formed from a part of the Thousand-Illusion Moon's body, was repelled by the Anhai Divine God, an Alien God from beyond the heavens. Both were wounded and fell into a long slumber.

Clearly, there are differences in power among Alien Gods. The Anhai Divine God, which could only barely defeat the sea monster with the all-out help of its believers, was actually far less powerful than the main body of the Thousand-Illusion Moon. The Thousand-Illusion Moon's body that arrived in this world this time is far larger and more violent than the sea monster. Even if the Anhai Divine God hadn't been sealed, it is unlikely it could have repelled the Thousand-Illusion Moon again; it might have even had to tuck its tail and flee back to the universe.

Although the Anhai Divine God is not here now, and even if it were, no one present would have the ability to use it to deal with the Thousand-Illusion Moon, He Jia'an thought of how the believers of the Anhai Divine Society had joined forces with the Anhai Divine God to defeat the Thousand-Illusion Moon back then.

Sealing! It's sealing!

Since that seal was able to imprison the sea monster, then surely there should be a chance to seal the Thousand-Illusion Moon that is currently invading across space.

"In a port city in Shenzhou called 'Liuhua Port', there was once a record of humans joining forces with another Alien God to resist and defeat a part of the Thousand-Illusion Moon's body. Perhaps in that Ancient Book that recorded the legend, the method to seal and defeat that part of the Thousand-Illusion Moon's body was left behind," He Jia'an thought for a moment and said to the Investigators of the Chosen Alliance.

Upon hearing this, the Investigators of the Chosen Alliance immediately understood. One Investigator said: "I understand. I will go try to contact the outside world now. I hope everything is still in time."

"Mm." He Jia'an nodded. One must always hold onto a glimmer of hope. He did not explain how great the gap was between the sea monster of that year and the Thousand-Illusion Moon invading the world today.

"Back then, there was another Alien God helping, but now we can only rely on us humans ourselves," an A-Rank Investigator of the Chosen Alliance said heavily. "The situation is still very grave."

"We cannot give up hope!" Misaki Naomi, who was standing beside He Jia'an, finally gathered the courage to say something. Her face flushed red, and she said shyly, "If we give up now, it would be equivalent to abandoning the humans of the entire world."

"You're right, student Misaki Naomi." That A-Rank Investigator nodded.

Not long after, the Chosen Alliance Investigator who went to try to contact the outside world returned with a face full of excitement and good news: "That's great! Although the magnetic field on the surface is chaotic, the magnetic field underground is minimally affected. 'Earth Core' communication can still be used normally. We have already contacted Investigator Organizations in other regions, and they are all rushing over. Among those who responded to us is the Mysterious Group of the Shenzhou Region."

The so-called "Earth Core communication" is simple to understand; in essence, it is equivalent to human "satellite communication," only satellites are launched into space, while Earth Core signals are sent deep underground, utilizing a special wave that does not dissipate underground to transmit communication signals.

Compared to satellites, Earth Core equipment has higher construction costs and higher maintenance costs, but it has the advantage of high communication reliability. As long as one has not left Earth, one can send messages to other signal-receiving units on the surface through the Earth Core.

"Did you ask about that Ancient Book?" He Jia'an hurriedly followed up.

"Rest assured, I asked." This C-Rank Investigator responsible for contact immediately nodded, then projected the content of the Ancient Book just obtained via a holographic projection.

The Ancient Book in the image was the original manuscript, and it clearly recorded the sealing method and items personally and completely documented by the manuscript's owner, "Ye Gong."

"Soul Burial Flower, Thousand Silk Grass... The heart scale of the Anhai Divine God?!" When everyone saw the last item needed to set up the seal, the Investigators were dumbfounded. "How are we supposed to find the heart scale of the Anhai Divine God?"

"Use mine." Just as everyone was about to fall into despair, a low voice came from beside them, the sound drifting over with a thick, bloody scent.

A mixed-race man with his clothes open and his chest a bloody mess suddenly walked out from the shadows, holding a black scale the size of an adult's palm in his hand.

Seeing the fine cold sweat on the forehead of this mysteriously appearing man and his uncontrollably trembling body, everyone could not help but empathize with the pain he was enduring.

"Who is it!?" the A-Rank Investigator barked, and the other Chosen Alliance Investigators also blocked in front of He Jia'an and the others.

Although this mysterious mixed-race man seemed quite manly, he was also very eerie.

If they weren't mistaken, that palm-sized scale had been forcibly pulled out from his own chest.

What kind of person could grow scales on their chest, and furthermore, declare with such certainty, "Use mine"? If this scale was related to the Anhai Divine God, then what relationship did the person who grew this scale have with the Anhai Divine God?

"Season, you can call me that," Drake said.

"Son of the sea?" He Jia'an directly exposed Drake's identity. "Son of the Sea, so you are actually a descendant of the Anhai Divine God."

A "human" born to an Alien God!?

The Investigators were suddenly on high alert, as if they were facing a terrifying Alien God in person.

"There's no need for this." He Jia'an signaled for everyone to lower their guard, then pushed past the protection of the Chosen Alliance Investigators and came before Drake, readily taking the scale.

Drake nodded at He Jia'an. He did not care about the fearful and vigilant gazes of the others. After giving them the item, he turned and left, not forgetting to remind those present: "I can help you hold back the Thousand-Illusion Moon, but... using the power of the seal requires you to pay with your lives."
