Neurolink System in the Modern World

<3rd Person>

With the seriousness of the situation sinking in, the room fell into a contemplative silence. Each member pondered the implications of the possible threat, weighing their options carefully.

They knew they would be at a disadvantage, especially since their headquarters were located near the spot where these portals materialized out of thin air.

Shao Mi closed her eyes and leaned back in her chair, her mind racing with possible solutions.

She knew they couldn't afford to underestimate the Zol Clan anymore, or the potential consequences of these mysterious portals.

After a moment of reflection, she spoke up, her voice steady but tinged with urgency.

The moment she parted her soft, flawless lips, everyone's attention was immediately drawn to her. Such was the strength of her charisma that it seemed almost like a power in its own right.

"We need to act fast. Our priority should be to gather as much information as possible about these portals and how to destroy it."

Several heads nodded in agreement, acknowledging the wisdom in her words. They understood the need to destroy this thing before it could cause any further damage.

Rina, the one most knowledgeable about this topic, suggested, "We will conduct further experiments to understand the nature of these portals and determine if there are any weaknesses we can exploit."

"We will support you," Others voiced their support for Rina's proposal.

Meanwhile, the elderly man from the Middle East tried to insert his own opinion, his voice firm.

"We must also strengthen our alliances with other factions and continents. Together, we will stand a better chance against this threat."

Shao Mi nodded in agreement, acknowledging his point. She knew that unity would be important in facing this challenge .

But the problem of human greed hung over their discussions.

It was clear convincing the other continent would be hard , especially since the portals were only in Asia.

The Zol Clan had planned this, concentrating their actions on one continent to stop others from joining in.

If the portals had appeared all over the world, it would have been simpler to gather support by fighting a common enemy. However, the Zol Clan's tactic made this challenging.

"Release all this information to the other families, and inform them that we have concrete proof that when these portals open, we'll face an external threat. We can only use scare tactics to make everyone understand the situation," she ordered.

Everyone nodded and agreed with her decision. It was the best solution for now.

After the meeting was finished, Shao Mi remained seated in her chair.

Right now, she was reflecting on a particular conversation she had with Yuki a few months back.

She visited her because the power of the shamans had been increasing exponentially in Japan, and she wanted to make her an ally, especially because Japan was one of Asia's first lands directly facing the US.

Shao Mi also wanted to know Yuki's stance on the internal conflicts happening behind the scenes all over the world.

Those were her main reason, but during their talks, she discovered something that piqued her interest.

"Is she really telling the truth? That a godlike figure that can create his own special realm exist?" she mumbled to herself.

Yuki had told her about the existence of such a powerful figure, and just hearing about the feats he had accomplished made her realize how insignificant she was.

Being able to create one's own realm was a feat reserved for godlike beings.

Records of such individuals existed in the past, but it had been so long that she began to wonder if they were merely exaggerated rumors.

Even today, no one could create their own special realm; those that had been discovered were pocket spaces created by ancient beings that existed long before humanity, perhaps even before the Earth was formed.

And her territory was one of them. It only had a 10 km radius space, but what Yuki described was akin to a miniature world.

Initially, she hesitated to believe her words, but she possessed a relic that could discern lies from the truth. From Yuki's account, everything she described resonated as true.

Shao Mi knew that Yuki lacked the power to bypass the abilities of her relic, so there was no way she could deceive her.

If this was really the case, then a very powerful being was currently on Earth without any plans to harm it. Enlisting his help would surely improve their chances.

However, the problem was that Yuki didn't know when he would return, so Shao Mi had to wait. .

When she finished contemplating that matter, her thoughts shifted to another person.

This time, it was the handsome man with white hair and red eyes whom she had met before. The image of his face kept repeating in her mind like a broken cassette.

Her inexplicable feelings for him had grown, to the point that she even saw him in her dreams. For Shao Mi, this was the first time she had become so interested in someone of the opposite sex, so she was still unsure about her feelings.

She had even dispatched her people to look into his identity, even reaching out to powerful families in Europe to inquire if they were familiar with him. But, in the end, she received no information. It was as if he had never existed in the first place.

"Who are you?" She sighed heavily, feeling her heart race just at the mere thought of him.

Since they first met, she had never been able to forget about him, his presence lingering in her thoughts like an unstoppable flame.

Zol Clan Special Space

Outside of this place, the world had turned upside down, but the individual responsible for all this chaos sat peacefully inside a chamber.

Her eyes were closed, and all her senses were disconnected from the outside world.

However, she was not sleeping at all. Instead, her soul was in a state of transcendence, a state achievable only by beings who had reached the very limits of their potential.

"This is all your fault. You humans pushed us too far," Zely murmured, parting her lips. As she opened her eyes, a sadistic smile formed on her face.
