Chapter 33 Chapter 33 The Evil God's Questions (5,000 words!!...
Everyone on the cruise ship saw Chi Shuangliu almost at the same time, and after a moment, they almost forgot his existence at the same time. While "Third Brother" gathered people with special abilities to escort the dignitaries away safely, he pushed the captured "auction items" into the sea without hesitation to drown them alive and destroy the evidence.
At this moment, a unicorn with a height of nearly 100 feet and a length, which was larger than the medium-sized cruise ship, came on the waves with its four hooves suspended in the air. It used the antlers on its head to break through the shielding cover. It spoke in human language: "This ship has been surrounded by the patrol team. Everyone, don't resist, otherwise we will take compulsory measures! Everyone, don't resist, we will take compulsory measures!" The voice was clear and upright, and sounded quite young.
The cruise ship ignored it and just kept moving forward.
The Qilin roared towards the sky, raised all four hooves and ran forward, using its body to block the cruise ship from moving forward.
S-level superpowers, exotic beasts from the mountains and seas!
'Third Brother' cursed: "Damn it, it's Yan Xunqing who came!!"
Demon City is a municipality directly under the Central Government. According to regulations, the captain of the patrol team must be an S-rank expert. But Third Brother never expected that the captain would actually go out in person! This man, with a noble family background and a cold personality, always took ruthless measures against those with special abilities who broke the law and committed crimes, without even the slightest room for negotiation.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the rescue boat following Qilin and approaching the cruise ship. Standing at the bow was a tall and handsome young man with long eyebrows, phoenix eyes, thin lips, and picturesque features. He was a typical Chinese handsome man.
Yan Xunqing was wearing an action uniform and had a solemn and cold expression. He looked around with his phoenix eyes and raised his hand slightly. The patrol team members behind him immediately surrounded the cruise ship in formation. Soon, the cruise ship was surrounded by more than 20 people with special abilities.
'Third Brother''s face turned green when he saw him. There were two levels between B-level and S-level, not to mention that the opponent was also a strong S-level combat type. How could he win?
This battle was almost a foregone conclusion. Most of the dignitaries present were captured on the spot. Many people with special abilities tried to use their special abilities to resist, but were killed on the spot by the patrol team. The remaining few people with special abilities were arrested on the spot. "Third Brother" originally wanted to escape and used his lightning special abilities to injure several members of the patrol team. Yan Xunqing personally took action to seriously injure him and threw him onto the patrol boat.
The operation was a near-complete victory. As the patrol team was cleaning up the battlefield, someone shouted, "Captain Yan, there's a survivor on this motorboat!" He took a photo and compared it: "Oh, it's the person who reported this case, Comrade Shen Run, but she's not in good condition now and is still unconscious!"
The team doctor paused, his voice becoming even more unbelievable: "I sensed the energy fluctuations of a superpower in her. She seems to have become... a superpower?"
"Don't move her first." Yan Xunqing shouted softly, and jumped onto the motorboat. He half-crouched down and carefully observed the physical condition of the person who called the police.
There was a lot of blood on the motorboat, all of which flowed from Chen Run's body. If an ordinary person had lost this much blood, she would have died by now. However, apart from her pale face, her breathing was steady and her heartbeat was normal. She did not look injured.
The only thing worth mentioning is... her fresh lips are a little red and swollen, and there are bite marks on her lips, as if someone left them in a state of extreme annoyance or extreme excitement, or maybe... both?
She was covered with a men's coat. Judging from the size of the coat, the man should be a very tall and slender adult male. His coat covered her upper body tightly. In order to prevent her from having difficulty breathing, he even considerately covered her with the coat under her chin.
Judging from the kiss marks on her lips, she seemed to have been forcibly assaulted before she fell unconscious, but which assaulter would be so considerate?
With years of experience in handling cases, Yan Xunqing instinctively sensed the contradiction, but he still ordered the team members with healing abilities: "Check if she has any wounds."
As soon as the team doctor lifted up her coat, he knew why she was covered with it. She had just been pierced through the body by the electric blade, and there was a big hole in her clothes from her chest to her lower abdomen, and there was a risk of exposure at any time.
"It looks like the wound has healed..." The team doctor was still puzzled. "But how did this young comrade suddenly become a psychic? If I remember correctly, her previous registration showed her as an ordinary person."
Yan Xunqing thought for a moment and said, "Although the vast majority of people with special abilities awakened their abilities after the meteor shower, there are still a small number of people who didn't awaken at the time. It's not impossible that they suddenly awakened their abilities after encountering major stimulation."
He pondered: "Take her back and give her a physical examination first."
......
When Chen Run woke up again, it was already bright outside.
She was lying in a clean and tidy ward, with a cold-faced handsome man with phoenix eyes standing beside her. He was holding a thick stack of test reports in his hand. When he saw her open her eyes, his expression relaxed slightly, and he opened his mouth to say a few polite words before getting to the point.
Unexpectedly, Chen Run jumped up with a somersault and screamed like an ox or a horse: "Ah! My perfect attendance award!!"
Yan Xunqing: "..."
A rare expression of silence appeared on his cold face, but he still spoke in a businesslike tone: "Miss Shen, do you think that the attendance award is what you should worry about most right now?"
After he reminded her, Shen Run slowly recalled what happened yesterday. Her face immediately showed a bit of anxiety, and she spoke incoherently: "Yesterday, my friend and I were kidnapped and taken to a cruise ship. The people who kidnapped us have supernatural powers and they also traffic people. My friend and I managed to escape, and a Thunder King injured me..."
"...Ruan San is a lightning-type psychic." Yan Xunqing corrected him, still answering diligently: "Thanks to you calling the police in time and setting off fireworks to call for help, we rushed to the scene as quickly as possible and arrested those criminals. You and your friends have been rescued safely."
Hearing him say this, Shen Run naturally thought that everyone had been rescued. She let out a long sigh and collapsed on the bed: "That's good, that's good." She took a moment to react: "You mean the superpowered person...?"
Yan Xunqing diligently explained, "Do you remember that meteorite shower many years ago? After the meteorite shower, many humans, animals, and plants evolved. The evolved humans gained abilities that surpassed the limits of the human body. We collectively call them people with special abilities. However, for the sake of stability, various countries worked together to conceal the fact of people with special abilities from ordinary people. In the early days of special ability evolution, many lawless elements used their special abilities to engage in illegal and criminal activities, causing great losses to the lives and property of ordinary people. To restrict special abilities, the country formed a group of upright special abilities to serve as patrol teams. Over time, the patrol teams gradually grew and expanded, actively cracking down on the illegal and criminal activities of special abilities across the country."
He stood up straight and said, "Let me introduce myself. I am the captain of the Demon City Patrol Team. You can call me Yan Xunqing."
Shen Run was mentally prepared for this and nodded when he heard it: "I understand."
She was quite interested in superpowers: "Are everyone's superpowers different?"
Yan Xunqing nodded slightly. "Yes, everyone's abilities are different. After evolving, many people discover that their abilities are related to their professions. For example, Ruan San, who injured you, was an electrician before evolving, so his ability is to manipulate lightning. Some people were doctors before evolving, so their evolution allows them to heal, and so on. But in reality, the idea that abilities are linked to professions is not accurate enough."
He said calmly, "To be precise, superpowers are linked to everyone's obsessions or desires, but most people's desires and obsessions are related to work."
Chen Run: "...Not surprising, after all, this is the age of social animals."
Yan Xunqing seemed to smile, but soon put his fist to his lips, his expression stern. "Of course, there are a few exceptions, like me. My profession is a soldier, but influenced by my mother, I have always wanted to become a historian and study ancient Chinese mythology. So my ability is also related to this."
He thought for a moment and added, "Currently, China has the largest number of people with special abilities, numbering in the millions."
Chen Run looked worried. "That Ruan San alone caused chaos yesterday. Millions of superpowered people would cause chaos, wouldn't that be a disaster?"
Yan Xunqing shook his head slightly. "In fact, most people with special abilities are not as powerful as you think. People with special abilities at the three levels of C, D, and E make up the majority. Most of them are only slightly stronger than ordinary people, and they still have to work hard to support their families."
A hint of melancholy crossed his impassive face, a rare moment of expressing his personal emotions. "This is China. Unless you're committing crimes, even powerful psychics have to go to work. So what if you strive to reach S-rank? You still have to write endless documents, summarize your work, and improve the work style of the unit."
Chen Run: "...Sounds like a very hard life."
She herself was not a person with special abilities, so she just listened to it for fun and lay down on the hospital bed.
Yan Xunqing squeezed the medical report in his hand and said, "Ms. Shen, I have good news and bad news to tell you. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Yesterday was a thrilling day. Chen Run lay slumped on the hospital bed like a salted fish, and said lazily: "Listen first."
"Congratulations, you've officially become a psychic." Yan Xunqing's expression was a bit complicated: "Weak B-level, psychic plundering."
Chen Run was confused: "Huh?"
He pondered, "Your ability is... the ability to steal the superpowers of others for your own use. Those whose powers you steal will temporarily become ordinary people. As for how long you can steal these powers, how powerful they are, how many people you can steal at once, and how to use them specifically, you'll need to practice it yourself to determine. Current equipment can't detect them."
His expression became even more complicated: "What a domineering supernatural power."
Chen Run was stunned when she heard this: "Is this ability...very powerful?" She scrambled to her feet and glanced at her hands: "Why don't I feel anything?"
In other words, my eyesight is a bit sharper, my hearing and sense of smell are better than before, and my body movements are more agile... and I still have to continue to be a social animal, so this ability evolution is meaningless! !
Yan Xunqing said calmly, "It can be said that if you can grow up smoothly, you may become the common nemesis of all superpowered people."
Although her level is very low now and there is no psychic who wants to take away her psychic powers, she is just an ordinary person now. But if she grows up in the future, she will be the natural enemy of almost all psychics.
It's amazing. Shen Run looks harmless and her growth process is very ordinary. How could she have acquired such a domineering superpower?
His eyes sharpened, and he examined her from head to toe before he said in a deep voice, "Also... unlike other people with special abilities, you don't have any genetic disease."
This time, without waiting for Shen Run to ask, he began to explain, "Every time a psychic awakens their powers, they also awaken a genetic disease. Genetic diseases are related to the psychic's obsession. Every year, tens of thousands of psychics die in China from genetic diseases, and countless more go insane because of them. For psychics, genetic diseases are their fatal weakness. This is... the price of evolution."
As the topic deepened, he no longer concealed his fear. He looked at her deeply with a stern expression, "And you, don't have any genetic diseases."
As he said this, his right hand had already been pulled out of his pocket - those who knew him knew that this was a sign that he was ready to attack.
Chen Run's situation was too special. She had extremely powerful superpowers and was not restricted by any genetic diseases. If she had any evil thoughts or did something wrong, it would cause great harm to other superpowers and ordinary people. It was no wonder that he was suspicious. There were heavy casualties on the cruise ship yesterday. Chen Run, an ordinary person, escaped and was discovered to be alive and well, and even had his superpowers evolved. This was really strange. In the past, a superpower deliberately promoted a major case in order to advance, and sacrificed the victim to complete the advancement ritual.
Of course, her companion Mo Tao was not dead either, but she was just an ordinary person and was also under control at this moment.
The patrol captain has great power. As long as he finds any signs that a person with special abilities is harming ordinary people, he has the right to kill them on the spot. When she was unconscious, Yan Xunqing considered whether to take restrictive measures, but this was not in line with his principles, so he decided to wait until Chen Run woke up and have a frank talk with her.
If Shen Run's answer could not satisfy him, she might not be able to walk out of the patrol team's door smoothly today.
Chen Run didn't say anything for a while. After a while, she said something inexplicably: "In that case, are you sure that the superpower is an evolution and not a curse or some kind of virus?"
Yan Xunqing didn't expect her focus to be here, and paused for a moment: "Why do you say that?"
Chen Run spread his hands. "Think about it. From a personal perspective, although people with special abilities have acquired special abilities, they also contract genetic diseases. Not only do they have to endure pain and suffering, they might even die one day. Without special abilities, they are still healthy and energetic. From a social perspective, people with special abilities have mastered supernatural powers. Some of them commit crimes and oppress ordinary people, which greatly increases social instability. Just look at what happened last night. You yourself said that the crime rate has increased a lot in recent years. How can this be a good thing?"
To be frank, for her, who does not have a genetic disease, obtaining superpowers is like a "blessing", while the superpowers obtained by others are more like a "curse" - although she does not know why others have genetic diseases but she does not.
Many people have gradually realized the seriousness of genetic diseases and the social harm that people with special abilities will bring, but in the minds of most people, this is still a benign evolution of mankind. Almost no one thinks that the evolution of special abilities is not a good thing like Chen Run.
He looked Shen Run up and down for a few times and said softly: "What you said... is very interesting."
He pondered for a moment and changed the subject: "I've finished talking about the good news, now it's time to tell you the bad news."
"Last night, you destroyed a key stronghold in Darwin and also led to the arrest of several powerful and wealthy individuals engaged in illegal activities. Darwin and these wealthy families will not let you go..."
Once Chen Run falls into their hands, even dying will become a luxury, as she will surely be subjected to inhumane torture.
Thinking of this, Yan Xunqing frowned slightly: "So what you're going to do next... will be very dangerous."
......
As an evil god without an ID card, Chi Shuangliu did not want to be bothered by the patrol team, so he left quickly.
He felt an indescribable anxiety.
Why?
Why not let her die? Why bless her? Why give her power?
Reason told him that she was not irreplaceable.
But when he took a step to leave, the long-lost animal nature once again eroded his reason, and an inexplicable emotion turned into a taut rope, tying him to the spot.
After the blessing, Chi Shuangliu suffered unprecedented humiliation and anxiety, and tore open the space crack at almost the fastest speed.
He stayed away from her, but the thirst in his heart was not relieved. The only thing he could do was kill.
The patrol team took action against the people on the cruise ship, and he quickly locked on to his target - the people who kidnapped Shen Run.
Even though he was under restrictions, it was still easy for him to kill a few mid-level psychics. He just went to see Shunzi's boss, and in just ten minutes, the boss suddenly went crazy. He used his supernatural powers to kill Shunzi and another person who kidnapped Chen Run, and finally used his supernatural powers to set a fire and burned himself to death.
The logic of the matter is this: Chen Run owed an online loan, and Monica, a senior executive of Sun Umbrella, wanted to coerce Chen Run, so she contacted the online loan company. The supernatural boss behind the online loan company sent Shunzi to kidnap Chen Run, but because of his poor handling of the matter, she was taken to a cruise ship. She was seriously injured by "Third Brother" on the cruise ship.
All those involved in the latter two incidents have been dealt with. Next, he wants to kill...
"Master, Monica has been contacted and she will be here soon. Will you kill her to help Chen Run take revenge?"
As a shareholder of the company, Monica and he had some friendship. Cao Xun asked for instructions while driving - of course, this was also obvious. From the moment he knew that Shen Run was in trouble, his master had never stopped. After rescuing him, he immediately dealt with all those who had plotted against and hurt Shen Run.
Cao Xun was puzzled. Had his brother's taming plan truly worked? Had Chi Shuangliu truly developed a strange emotional connection with Shen Run?
Help Chen Run vent his anger? Why should he help Chen Run vent his anger?
He just needed to vent, and these people just happened to run into him. What does it have to do with Chen Run?
As if to prove something, Chi Shuangliu said: "I won't kill her."
There was no unnecessary expression on his face.
He spoke in a condescending manner, without a trace of emotion: "This has nothing to do with Shen Run."
