Doctor of Science's Journey into Another World

Chapter 369: Mainland Public Opinion and the Secret Meeting of Zangyuan

After a month of fermentation, the news that Dongfang Bubai defeated the Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon in the ancient capital of the East has spread throughout the continent, especially in towns with developed information transmission. Even some large cities far away in the Western Regions have heard some news.

However, the news that Dongfang Bubai fought against dozens of priests of fate without losing is not so widely known.

Under the secret manipulation of the Cult of Destiny, although the truth could not be hidden, the speed of its spread and its popularity were far less than the defeat of the Saint of the Bright Moon.

The Propaganda Department of the Cult of Destiny was very clever. They skillfully took advantage of people's tendency to spread false rumors and made the battle between Dongfang Bubai and the priests seem small and trivial.

Although it is impossible to block it completely, it is still effective. In slightly more distant areas, such as the mage circles in the Western Regions, the news heard has changed and is a completely new version.

For example, the fight between dozens of priests against Dongfang Bubai turned into a round-robin battle, which was spread as a one-on-one duel in accordance with the rules of the martial arts world.

For example, the dozens of priests who participated in the battle were originally all high-ranking priests of the great magician class, but it was rumored that they had become a sparring group composed of middle and low-ranking priests.

For example, this was a siege against Dongfang Bubai, all the priests were furious and used many killing moves, but it was passed down as a peaceful martial arts discussion, a courteous magic exchange, or a friendly magic instruction...

Among those who participated in the battle, elementalists like Yang Xiaoyun were completely removed from the list and became "fair referees" who only watched the battle and maintained order.

Under Yang Xiaoyun's operation, the Cult of Destiny bought out the photographic records of almost all the onlookers at the scene at the highest price, and even made them sign a confidentiality agreement.

Despite this, a lot of precious images were still transmitted, but most of them were recorded using photography from a distance. The sound was not clear and the images were fuzzy, with a total loss quality similar to that of a mosaic.

Although the Cult of the Bright Moon Goddess also held a meeting regarding this incident, the archbishops all agreed to wait until Olmya returned before making a decision. After all, no one in the Cult of the Bright Moon Goddess cared much about the defeat of their own saint.

Because the Moon Goddess Sect is essentially a sect famous for its medical and health-preserving techniques, most of the secret techniques it possesses are related to auxiliary magic such as healing and purification.

In most people's inherent impression, the Bright Moon Goddess Sect is not a powerful sect, but a gentle, harmless, kind and charitable organization, and the Bright Moon Guardians only account for one percent of the huge number of Bright Moon followers.

The vast majority of Bright Moon followers are missionaries who are proficient in healing arts, and those missionary work that is visible to the public are also carried out by missionaries who have no combat effectiveness.

As for those powerful priests, they are almost all very low-key and usually only active in the circles of a few high-level wizards.

Although Olmia is the ceiling of combat power within the sect, looking at the sect's history of tens of thousands of years, the former saints and saints were almost all weak. This is in stark contrast to the highest saints in other major sects who are all extremely powerful elementalists.

After all, not every generation of the Holy Son and Holy Daughter of Bright Moon has one heart and two souls. They are also born as priests and happen to be gifted combat geniuses.

Therefore, on the continent of Walterlan, most people were not actually that surprised about the defeat of the Saint of the Bright Moon. Instead, they thought it was very normal.

In the western waters of southern Xinjiang, on Black Flag Island, the headquarters base of the Burial Abyss, the Divine Anchor Point Research Branch of the Burial Research Institute.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the conference room of the Funeral Research Institute was dull. Apart from the sound of breathing at varying rates, there was no sound of talking, even though there were nearly a hundred people in black robes sitting here.

Dr. A's back was filled with hundreds of soft, transparent gelatin tubes, with colorful viscous liquids flowing inside. The ends of the tubes were connected to a huge metal furnace not far away, which was constantly emitting a low humming sound.

"I think you all have seen the photography technique that Jace passed on to me. Tell me what you think." Dr. A sat at the head of the long conference table and glanced around the conference room with an indifferent expression.

As soon as Dr. A finished speaking, a buzz of discussion began in the conference room, with people whispering to those closest to them.

A few minutes later, Dr. A tapped the long table with his fingers, making a few crisp sounds, and the conference room immediately returned to silence, as if Dr. A had pressed a mute switch.

The first person to stand up was Dr. Ding. He spoke in a magnetic middle-aged male voice: "This Eastern weirdo is very likely to be an S-level god anchor. I have the following nine reasons for this:..."

Dr. Ding described in detail all the ways in which Dongfang Bubai was different from ordinary people. The video recording sent by Jayce was very clear and complete, and it was recorded from several angles. It was obvious that he was there to observe the battle up close that day.

"The last point, which I personally think is the most important, is that Dongfang Bubai's strength may have reached the legendary "Great Elementalist"!"

Dr. Ding's words caused an uproar among the nearly 100 men in black in the conference room, followed by even more intense discussions than before.

Dr. A, who was sitting in the main seat, lowered his head and frowned in thought. After a while, he raised his hand to suppress the discussion. The sound of discussion in the conference room disappeared again, returning to its previous silence.

Dr. Jia motioned Dr. Ding to sit down, then he stood up with some difficulty, looked at everyone in the conference room and said loudly: "Regarding Dr. Ding's basis, I agree with the first eight points he mentioned. As for the last point, Dongfang Bubai's strength has reached the level of a great elementalist..."

"I don't agree with this. From my observation, Dongfang Bubai is most likely a true elementalist, an elementalist recognized by the gods, and not one of those fake elementalists on the continent who are only good for show..."

"Ahem," Doctor A said too many words in one breath and coughed violently. He then panted slightly and took a deep breath before saying in a deep voice, "The Great Elementalist is already a god. The Image Recording Technique cannot record such a life form. You don't have to think too much about it."

"Okay, let's put the matter of the Eastern Monster aside for now and keep it on file as the eighth-class god anchor. Now let's discuss the Jieming Magic Stone first."

Afterwards, there was no more uproar in the conference room. The men in black robes just stood up one by one to report on their research progress, and the first one, Dr. A, just spoke in silence and occasionally expressed his opinions.
