Chapter 24: Chapter 24: The Numerous Achievements of the Living!
Having watched it numerous times, he even started to feel like the Blood Demons were nothing special, the young man was the real monster.
Even knowing that Shen Hao was an exception.
But he was indeed powerful!
Domineeringly powerful!
Even among the Blood Demons, some clearly had significantly stronger powers and initially could resist fiercely, but in front of Shen Hao, they too quickly kneeled!
Until the distant horizon began to show a faint light, someone carefully counted and found that Shen Hao alone had eliminated over six hundred Blood Demons in one night!
He visited over two hundred places!
Efficient! Precise! If it weren’t for the time spent on interrogations, he could have been even faster!
Even at the current high-level meeting, everyone was numb.
It wasn’t until a long while later that someone, looking at the data summarized from the night, rubbed their sore nose and eyes and said in an undeniable tone, “If I were a Blood Demon, I would spare no expense to kill Shen Hao!”
This statement clearly resonated with many people.
“Exactly, we must protect him well.”

“Is the Purple Talent really that powerful? Could it possibly be Gold?”
“I think there’s no need to worry too much about safety… With his efficiency, the number of points he gains will be terrifying.”
“We can’t be careless, his talent is powerful but not impregnable.”
“Yes, that’s also here. If it were abroad, he would definitely encounter a large-scale armed Blood Demon force tonight!”
“…”
At this point in the meeting, everyone was not stingy in showing great concern for Shen Hao.
On one hand, they were indeed amazed at his powerful performance.
On the other hand, in this special period, Blood Demons are the most important and most terrifying enemy humanity has to face.
There were indeed concerns about the immense powers and control over beings demonstrated by Shen Hao, but at this moment, it simply couldn’t be voiced because any doubts or accusations might lead to suspicions of “being parasitized”.
It wasn’t just here; the same was true in several known major countries.
In situations where it was impossible to completely rule out suspicions of parasitism, fighting the Blood Demons at all costs was the best way to prove one’s innocence.
Even if there really were Blood Demons disguised among them, as long as nothing suspicious could be detected in their fight against Blood Demons, prolonging their disguise wouldn’t easily bring much destruction.
It’s not like no one had suggested that Shen Hao be examined.
But the front lines couldn’t do without him, and moreover, one person’s power is ultimately limited, Shen Hao couldn’t be watching everyone at all times, his check could only ensure that he wasn’t parasitized before, but couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t be afterward.
Better to wait until a suspect emerges and then hand them over to Shen Hao.
With such an almost cheat-like scrutiny mechanism, if well used, his mere existence could bring a significant disadvantage to the “Werewolves” in this game of “Werewolf”!
“Alright,” a voice brought the meeting back to the main agenda, “Shen Hao’s ability and contributions indeed allow us to breathe a sigh of relief, but facing this unprecedented enemy in an unprecedented war, we cannot be negligent! Otherwise, we would be the historical criminals of our entire nation, even of the entire Human Civilization! Now, moving on to the third agenda item of the meeting, publicizing the existence of Blood Demons to all people.”
They had already discussed this issue yesterday.
The biggest challenge was in not causing chaos.
The mere existence of the Blood Demons, for humans, is a huge shock; it makes people feel danger is everywhere, that there are no absolutely trustworthy friends, relatives, or comrades. This fear and caution are indescribable.
Abroad is the best example at this moment.
Just on the very first night that the news spread, chaos intensified.
There were even a large number of wrongful killings.
“These accidental killings are truly a human tragedy!”
That’s why they also found them extremely thorny.
However, that night, Shen Hao undoubtedly brought a huge surprise.
It wasn’t his power, but the piece of intelligence laid out in front of them!
Fear, more often than not, stems from the unknown. The more one understands, the easier it is to eliminate fear and to prepare for it.
“At a time like this, just this piece of intelligence is enough to etch Shen Hao’s achievements into the annals of human history forever, saying it saved countless lives is no exaggeration,” someone remarked emotionally.
It quickly resonated with many people.
“The significance of this intelligence at this moment is indeed tremendous.”
“We could also benefit from it.”
“Exactly, though it’s a crisis, it’s also an opportunity!”
“Having Shen Hao appear is indeed our luck.”
“Get ready.”
“…”
At this point, Shen Hao had finished the difficult night and had returned to the base at Donghua Middle School.
Many people had already gathered here. Temporary tents were erected on the playground, and many injured people were receiving treatment in the tents, but even more people sat elsewhere, maintaining a certain distance from each other, wary and frightened as they watched everyone around them.
Clearly, the events of the last night had brought them tremendous shock.
The friends and family beside them could actually be Monsters!
They themselves were under suspicion of being Monsters!
If it weren’t for the military and the guns aimed at them, not to mention the presence of more than one Chosen One, they would probably already be thinking about fleeing this place.
But without being able to prove they were not Blood Demons, they would never be allowed to leave.
Fortunately, the officers were constantly soothing them, promising that they only needed to wait one more hour.
This hour was naturally the time waiting for Shen Hao to return.
Upon his return, the first thing he saw was several Chosen Ones in front of him.
They seemed to have just returned recently as well, and their appearances were far from good.
Covered in dust, their clothes stained with fresh blood, and many areas bandaged.
Yet, their demeanors had clearly changed.
Especially the three, including Cheng Youqing.
When he had seen them the night before, they still possessed the distinct air of urban people, but now, each of them was significantly more composed, rapidly transforming into warriors.
Shen Hao’s gaze swept over them one by one, finally resting on Liu Ruoxi’s face.
Half of her face was bandaged, and though the exposed half was still beautiful, the whole person lacked a bit of her previous allure.
At that moment, looking at Shen Hao with one eye, it was as if she was expecting something, her gaze almost naive.
“You’ve performed very well,” Shen Hao didn’t let her down and praised her. Lifting his hand, he tossed her a bottle of medicine, “Take this, it’s much better than what’s in the Level 1 store; it won’t leave a scar.”
Liu Ruoxi caught it, surprised by the level displayed on the Chosen One panel.
“White Level 3?”
