Chapter 218
The gunshot in the hotel immediately set off blaring alarms, startling guests on every floor.
Since this was the venue being prepared for the Asian Anti-Paranormal Research Conference, most current occupants were internal staff from the Special Strategy Division and other departments, tasked with setting up the conference site.
Additionally, a small number of Anti-Paranormal Agents and Fighters were present for security and assistance.
Therefore, the moment the alarm sounded, the Anti-Paranormal Agents were the first to spring into action. They contacted hotel staff to use the public address system, directing guests on each floor to evacuate.
Simultaneously, Division Three of the Capital Special Strategy Division, located closest to the Peace Hotel, immediately dispatched three squads of Anti-Paranormal Agents and a regiment of Anti-Paranormal Fighters. They first sealed off the entire city block around the hotel, then initiated an evacuation operation upon detecting Paranormal Space activity.
Having learned from the previous major Paranormal disaster in the capital, the Capital Special Strategy Division now had extensive experience dealing with large-scale Paranormal incidents. In less than half an hour, they had cordoned off the hotel and completed the evacuation of surrounding civilians.
However, the Paranormal Space within the hotel was spreading rapidly. Only two Anti-Paranormal squads from Division Three managed to enter before the rest were blocked by an intangible barrier.
Fortunately, the “Paranormal Energy Detector” research team had made significant breakthroughs over the past six months in detecting Paranormal Energy and breaching Paranormal Space barriers. With the machines now brought to the scene, they began attempting to “forcefully” breach the Paranormal Space.
If only Shen Ge weren’t trapped inside the Paranormal Space at that moment, seeing the Capital Division’s efforts would have made him realize he had indeed wrongly suspected headquarters.
