Chapter 2509 Shocking Surprise
The air in the conference room was heavy even as more and more projections lit up to project three-dimensional images of various leaders and representatives. It was not an exaggeration to say that this was an unprecedented event in human history. For one, this summit gathered all leaders at all levels.
This was a feat that could not be accomplished without the Beggar Sage and his nigh omniscient understanding of the powers of human civilization. Only he could have possibly gathered all leaders of human civilization in one room in the span of a month.
It was a summit of the leaders of a species, rather than just of civilization.
And it was fitting, given that they were fighting an existential war against the rest of all of life on land in the Beast Domain.
The momentous occasion was not lost on them, but they were simply unable to appreciate it. They had bigger concerns.
Like not being destroyed in the short-term, mid-term, and eventually emerging victorious in the long-term.
CLACK
The door at the other end of the gigantic conference-lecture hall opened up. A well-groomed suited man walked through it, arriving at the speaker's stand as several lights lit up on him, illuminating him brightly.
Many of the leaders gathered in the conference hall recognized him immediately.
"Leaders of the world, Delegates and representatives, Martial Artists and dignitaries, ladies and gentlemen, I, the fifteenth Guildmaster of the Adventurer's Guild, Guildmaster Vaughn," he smiled, "would like to begin by thanking all of you for partaking in our ambitious yet vital Human Summit. By doing so, you have given us the mandate to proceed with everything that is to come. I would like to thank the elusive yet omnipresent Beggar's Sect for their thorough cooperation with the Adventurer's Guild without which this summit would have been impossible. I would also like to thank the various parties who have agreed to cooperate with us on this initiative."
Many leaders across the aisle came to have more respect and regard for the Emperor of Harmony. The recent scandal that had come out had left a blight on his otherwise spotless track record, but now his willingness to allow all of them to benefit from the Martial genius of his son showed that he was truly a trustworthy and credible individual.
Emperor Rael quickly understood this dynamic and simply accepted it. He was still shocked about the revelation that his son was partaking in the special Beast Incursion task force of the Adventurer's Guild, of course. But for now, he decided to go with the flow of things.
He would have a dear chat with his mischievous son later on.
"With the knowledge and wisdom of some of the brightest and greatest minds in all of human civilization, may we emerge victorious from this apocalypse," the guildmaster said with a sense of finality. "And without further ado, I call upon the Ecologer herself to commence the presentation of the analysis briefing of the Beast Incursion."
A middle-aged woman garbed in a lab coat entered the conference hall with a measured gait. Her long, brown hair swayed with each step while the circular lenses of her spectacles glinted in the light.
She radiated an aura of wisdom and knowledge. An aura that came when someone dedicated their entire life, entire lives, in the pursuit of greater knowledge.
She arrived at the speaker's stand, directing a sweeping gaze across the assembled audience.
"Leaders of humanity," she began with a neutral tone. "I am the Ecologer."
Her light green eyes bore deep upon all of them.
"...And I am here to inform all of you that you are yet to understand just how much danger we all are in, at the moment."
