"What in the world are the officials outside doing? Black Tower has been out of contact with the outside world for so long, yet there's been no response?"
"A bunch of useless freeloaders."
Inside the Black Tower Monitoring Station, life went on as usual. But as language became distorted, they discovered that some of their words now possessed immense power.
"A power similar to Word Spirit," Bai Zhou said.
He had been silently observing the distortion as it unfolded, because he was merely a Fishman.
Ever since the distortion began to spread, he no longer shared a common language with those around him.
Bai Zhou had stayed in his home the entire time, watching as the situation grew progressively worse.
After they discovered that power, no one mentioned the earlier debate about the subject of the distortion anymore, as if the conversation had never happened.
That black pointer used to track Li Luo earlier was a product of that very power.
