That night, several high-ranking officials from Qilin Headquarters descended upon Silver City.
Yu Xian, following Jin Sheng, saw several powerful figures whose aura was like that of demon gods.
Although these bigwigs smiled and were very amiable when they saw him, even shaking his hand, patting his head, and praising him as a good child, Yu Xian was stiff with tension the entire time, feeling like a chick dropped into a pride of lions.
It is worth mentioning that the word 'descended' was literal; these bigwigs flew directly from the capital and landed from the sky.
The next day, Yu Wei's body and the Alienated Insect captured by Jin Sheng were taken away by one of the bigwigs.
It is believed that Qilin Headquarters will conduct various studies on them, and perhaps soon there will be a way to identify victims controlled by Alienated Insects hiding among the population.
…
Noon.
The sun emitted a scorching heat, and the soldiers stood under the blazing sun, their military posture still upright despite being drenched in sweat.
Yu Xian sat outside his tent, sunbathing and looking at his phone, which was a special internal phone for Qilin, not only waterproof, dustproof, drop-proof, fire-proof, and electrical-proof, but also able to maintain a smooth signal in most environments.
In addition, the phone also had several official APPs, among which the Kylin APP had many interesting panels, and Yu Xian's favorite was the archive panel.
The main reason was that the archive panel recorded a large number of extraordinary incidents that various Qilin squads had already resolved.
For example, some villains who unexpectedly gained abilities, or animals that committed evil after eating the forbidden fruit, and how various squads outsmarted these extraordinary beings and finally successfully solved the problems.
Of course, there were also cases where teammates were at odds, or the captain did not trust his teammates, ultimately leading to mission failure and loss of team members.
The reason why the official internally publicized these cases was mainly because the situation of superhuman crime was severe and complex, and only by continuously learning and broadening their horizons would they not be confused by the diverse abilities when encountering criminals with complex abilities, thus avoiding a dead end in their thinking.
Yu Xian was now greatly enlightened and learned a lot.
For example, he used to think that obtaining the forbidden fruit would allow him to soar to great heights.
It was only after reading one of the archives that he realized that the forbidden fruit was not omnipotent and had many limitations.
In the archive, there was a young man named Chen Xing, who found a forbidden fruit on his balcony and became a 'god' after eating it.
However, as a price for gaining power, his self-awareness was completely extinguished.
Currently, Chen Xing is sealed in the Extraordinary Containment Institute of Qilin Headquarters, numbered 006, code-named: Fortune God. Anyone who kneels before him can receive a blessing of luck, but once they start kneeling, they must sincerely kneel every day, otherwise, if the kneeling is interrupted, bad luck will befall them; the more fortunate they were before, the more unlucky they will be afterward.
Another one is number 001, code-named Pangu, who is in a similar situation, except he is in eternal sleep, and it is said that he will only awaken after this world is destroyed and then create heaven and earth.
In the Kylin APP, the 'Pangu Blood' in the Merit Shop comes from this individual; the official has found a way to extract blood without harming his body.
The more Yu Xian read, the more he understood how profound the official's foundation was; compared to the official's power, Vampires were nothing.
“I wonder how much nourishment I would get if I took a sip of Pangu Blood?”
Yu Xian finished reading one of the archives, a curious expression on his face. The captain of the squad that resolved the incident in the archive was originally an ordinary soldier. Due to his outstanding merits, he was able to exchange for Pangu Blood, thereby becoming a Sparrow Level extraordinary.
A single drop of Pangu Blood could create a Sparrow Level expert.
Sure enough, no one can escape the law of 'it really smells good'.
Although Yu Xian swore he would never drink blood again, to be honest, he was a little tempted by this Pangu Blood.
In fact, there were already warriors in Silver City who had consumed Pangu Blood.
That would be the Warriors' Police Force of the Security Bureau, but most members of the Warriors' Police Force had only consumed Pangu Blood that had been diluted and rediluted, with their strength roughly at Chong Class lower-tier. Aside from their physical fitness being stronger than ordinary people, they had no additional abilities.
Currently, the Warriors' Police Force is acting with the armed police, systematically searching all buildings in Silver City to clear out any Alienated Insects that might be hiding.
Silver City has a permanent population of nearly thirty million, and the search is not easy.
In fact, in the past, Silver City's population was only over ten million. Later, the 'Rong City Massacre' broke out in Rong City, and a large number of people relocated, which led to a surge in Silver City's population.
Currently, Silver City is one of only two cities in the country with a resident population exceeding thirty million.
Speaking of which, because a large number of residents from Rong City relocated, the few houses Yu Xian owned actually increased in value.
However, after this incident, it is estimated that the two remaining houses Yu Xian owns will probably depreciate significantly. Fortunately, he has now joined the Evil Extermination Squad, not only receiving a salary but also a formal position, so that small loss is negligible for him.
As Yu Xian opened the next archive, preparing to continue reading, Zhang Shou, Chen Ling, and other classmates came over. Zhang Shou leaned forward and asked slyly, “Xian Yu, the internet is buzzing that the official is preparing to popularize extraordinary education. Is this true or false?”
“Popularize extraordinary education?” Yu Xian was startled, then shook his head and said, “I don’t know, I haven’t heard about it.”
In fact, the whole country is currently paying attention to the situation in Silver City. Major cities have started nationwide physical examinations again, and many people are on high alert, feeling anxious. Then, news broke about the official popularizing extraordinary education, and netizens immediately shifted their attention, discussing the pros and cons of popularizing extraordinary education.
“If it’s true, that would be great! I will definitely become an immortal cultivator then. My destiny is mine, not heaven’s!” Zhang Shou said with a longing expression.
Yu Xian opened the contacts in the Kylin APP and said, “I’ll ask, maybe the captain knows.”
These past two days, he finally understood the value of being ranked 89. Jin Sheng not only had a seat in various meetings at Qilin Headquarters but also had voting rights, allowing him to get early information on many policy changes.
He clicked on Jin Sheng's avatar and typed rapidly.
【Xian Yu: Captain, are you busy?】
【Lion Light: Just dealt with some trash taking advantage of the chaos. What's up?】
【Xian Yu: The internet is saying the country is going to popularize extraordinary education. Is it true?】
【Lion Light: It is indeed under discussion. In fact, it has been discussed ever since the Rong City Massacre. This incident in Silver City has just accelerated the process, after all, both Alienated Insects were discovered by students in schools, and you and that classmate are both extraordinary. However, I estimate it won’t be popularized so quickly; they should first choose a few cities as pilot programs.】
【Xian Yu: Oh, I understand.】
Yu Xian looked up at Zhang Shou and said, “The captain said it’s true, but they’ll probably choose a few cities as pilot programs first.”
Since ancient times, martial arts have led to lawlessness. While the widespread popularization of the extraordinary could allow more potential geniuses to emerge, it would also empower many people with ill intentions.
Therefore, the official must be full of concerns and cannot make a decision all at once.
“I’ve decided! When the official announces which city will be the pilot, I’ll go to school in that city,” Zhang Shou immediately exclaimed excitedly.
Chen Ling, on the other hand, calmly analyzed, “I think our Silver City and Rong City have a great chance of becoming one of the pilot cities. After all, we were both victims of Alienated Insects, so the country will definitely care a bit more about our two cities.”
“If it really is Silver City, that would be great,” another female classmate sighed.
These past two days, there have been few good news they heard, but bad news kept emerging.
It is said that casualties in No. 1 Middle School and No. 2 Middle School were even more severe. The Alienated Insects seemed to infiltrate with schools as their center, and the students of various schools were the first to be affected.
Especially many primary schools, it seems there isn't even a single survivor.
It's still unknown how many families' worlds are about to collapse.
“…”
Yu Xian looked at his anxious and expectant classmates, feeling a faint sense of emotion.
Speaking of which, before he contracted ALS, he was actually like his classmates, mostly longing for extraordinary power. Later, he slowly accepted the fact of his ordinariness.
Evidently, after their brush with death, his classmates, like him when he had ALS, yearned even more for extraordinary power. The essence of this yearning was actually an insecurity about the future and a fear of death.
Everyone is truly no different.
Even if he gained extraordinary power, he only became more 'strong'; his heart was still a human heart, and his emotions were exactly the same as everyone else's.
That female staff member was right; as long as he considered himself human, no matter what extraordinary race he became, he would always be human.
Vampire is just a bloodline.
