Chapter 697: Broken Passage

“Division Head, it’s on these pictures as well, and it looks a bit strange.” Another person had noticed it as well, and when Mao Tianying went over, the man pointed at a few pictures, saying, “Look, that black shadow is very obviously moving. It doesn’t seem to be blown by the wind, and I’ve checked the direction of the winds. It doesn’t make sense. From its movement, it seems to be alive…”

After that final conclusion, the office suddenly fell silent because those words had caused some of them to have goosebumps. They all looked at each other, and did not know what to do. Even though they were all part of Dawn Academy, and were all ambitionless folk, the situation was too far out of their scope of understanding.

Mao Tianying frowned as he was at a loss as well. That strange figure was also not within his expectations. After thinking for a moment, he helplessly shook his head, “Whatever, this is not something we can handle. Compile these pictures into a report and hand it over to the academy to handle. Everyone’s work is not bad. The overtime pay continues!”

The confirmation of continued overtime pay caused them to cheer, and they started to shift their focus over. Yes, no matter what the dark shadow was, it would naturally be analyzed and solved by those that were better than them. Even though they were not that capable, after so long, everyone had faith in Dawn Academy’s capabilities.

“This can’t be delayed, so everyone, put in some more effort and compile the report right away. Then, we can have it sent over to Dawn Academy!” Mao Tianying immediately let out a sigh of relief. What he expected did not happen, such as some unimaginable catastrophe, but that black shadow still caused him to be nervous.

With the help of overtime pay, their work was incredibly efficient. They managed to compile the report in just half an hour and place it on Mao Tianying’s desk. The division head looked through it, edited a few parts, then signed his name after making sure there were no issues. He said, “Send it right to the school through trans-spatial communication.”

The others were stunned. Based on normal procedures, documents were supposed to be sent through the trans-spatial communication lines right to Dawn Academy. That was because that method of communication that transcended space and time needed a lot of energy stones, so it would not be used so easily unless it was an emergency. Most of the time, they would send someone to go to the academy through the spatial carriage, or even hand it to anyone that was here on an errand for the academy.

To those in the office, trans-spatial communication was something they had not encountered in several years. However, everyone had undergone training before, and even though it was a bit foreign, they still quickly managed to restart the device. They took out the stored energy stones, and after the set up was complete, the report was converted into magical runes before being sent over.

Mao Tianying did not operate it himself and merely sat at his desk, deep in thought. Lately, a lot of things have been happening both at the academy and in the New World. That caused him to feel uneasy. Of course, what happened there had nothing to do with him, but he was worried that it would disturb his peaceful life if it started to involve Earth.

Just as Mao Tianying was thinking about his worries, a very unsettling voice shouted out, “Division… Division head! This isn’t good! It’s not good!”

A few people started to barge inside. It was the ones he had ordered to send the report. Mao Tianying’s heart suddenly pounded, and he said angrily, “What are you shouting for?! Don’t you know it’s the middle of the night? What happened? Speak up properly!”

“Division Head, the trans-spatial communication device isn’t working. We can’t establish a connection!”

“Not only that, the spatial carriage’s wormhole won’t open!”

Those last words caused Mao Tianying’s tense mental state to fall apart. He staggered and almost fell down. Ignoring his stature, he rushed over, grabbing the man’s collar as he shouted angrily, “What did you say? What do you mean the wormhole isn’t opening? Who asked you to do that?!”

“Division Head, the trans-spatial communication device wasn’t working earlier, and we thought that there must have been a problem with the power from the wormhole. You know we’re a small place, and both devices use the same power source. In the end, we noticed that the wormhole can’t open at all!” The man who spoke had an incredibly strange look on his face.

Mao Tianying no longer bothered listening to him. He pushed him aside as he ran over to where the spatial carriage was.

The wormhole was actually a huge circular arc. Next to the door was the spatial carriage. Normally, as long as they activate the passage, the door would immediately summon a void in thin air, which was the wormhole.

However, no matter what Mao Tianying did, including a few final kicks out of frustration, the door would not move at all. There was none of the familiar golden sand, nor was there the river-like passage.

Mao Tianying’s face paled incredibly. He suddenly issued an order, “Contact the US, England, Russia, and all the other Earth Divisions. See what the situation is like. I hope it’s just on our side. Otherwise…”

Otherwise, it would be a major problem.

Their group might not want to wage war in the New World. Even if they planned on retiring on Earth, they still needed the academy’s strength behind them. Otherwise, with their miniscule powers, would they be able to face the rapidly changing situation?

They quickly got the answers from the various other academies. The calls all went through next to Mao Tianying. In truth, they did not even need to make the calls later on, and they had started to be contacted by the other divisions. As Earth Divisions, they all naturally communicated between one another.

After each call was hung up on, Mao Tianying’s face would pale even more. It was not a malfunction, nor was it a coincidence. Currently, every single Earth Division had lost access to their wormhole, and it had all seemed to happen at the same time, which was when the blood moon ended!

What happened?

No one knew, and all of the academies were anxiously gathering information. Those of them who were part of the academy that were on errands on Earth were quickly contacted, but even they did not know what was happening with that unprecedented situation.

Without trans-spatial communication and without the spatial carriage, it meant that Earth and the New World, and the academies, could no longer be in contact. Everyone believed that it was only the beginning of something strange…
