Chapter 1174 The Man of Wushu Kingdom (Part Two)
Shangguan Yan paused slightly, clicked the mouse to turn the page, and said to everyone, "You can take a good look at the information on these anomalies. These anomalies are all ones that Wushu Kingdom has come into contact with. Xia, you can take a special look at them carefully."

The second half of his sentence carried a subtle hint in Shangguan Yan's tone.

Xia Shou immediately perked up and began to read the information about these abnormal entities with great concentration.

The Three Sacrifices Daughter, the Silent Plaster Statue, the Living Candelabra...

Each anomaly was described as terrifying, drawing parallels to anomalies that Xia Shou had previously fought.

Some of them are described as having the fighting power of a blood demon, while others, like Idrissu, can create closed domains; each of them is quite dangerous.

However, Xia Shou didn't see anything special about them. These anomalies were just troublesome, but that was all.

"What is the minister implying to me?" Xia Shou wondered.

Shangguan Yan continued speaking to himself:

"He dealt with all of these anomalies."

I know you're thinking that while these anomalies are extremely dangerous, it's not surprising that they were dealt with by a skilled Level 5 finisher.

That's right, so that's not what I'm talking about. The key point is the table at the back, which contains data on the final cleanup work done by the Intelligence Department and the Research Department after the incident was resolved.

Have you noticed that the indicators of dissipated magical power are generally low? And the range of influence is also relatively small? In some individual cases, the indicators are particularly low?

"Indeed!" Li Ming immediately noticed something amiss. "Someone has forged it?"

"As expected of Xiaoming, you've become so sensitive to this kind of data? Very good, keep up the good work," Shangguan Yan encouraged.

Li Ming pointed to the numbers on the screen: "But if it's just these numbers picked out from his entire task list, then it's quite normal."

This kind of indicator being low is actually quite common, but if it happens frequently, something is not right. It's like flipping a coin and getting tails three times in a row is okay, but flipping it more than ten times in a row is not normal.

So it still depends on the frequency and proportion.

"The ratio is definitely abnormal, otherwise the higher-ups wouldn't have included this part in the data. Moreover, a preliminary conclusion has been reached on this point of doubt. Although it hasn't been fully confirmed, judging from the chaotic state of the cursed power at the scene, it is very likely that this was the cursed power that erupted from the simultaneous death of multiple abnormal entities."

"Impossible, it would have been discovered long ago! The other abnormal corpses that died at the scene are evidence, and the types of curse power desires of the abnormal beings are also very different."

Unless he can preemptively contain a large group of anomalous beings with similar desires, then kill them all at once at this point, and also move the bodies.

Shangguan Yan nodded again, acknowledging Li Ming's statement: "Yes, so it's just a deduction. The Control Bureau suspects that he used some kind of spatial power to transfer the anomaly, moving the anomaly that was the target of the mission to another place, and using the death of a large number of similar anomalies to create the illusion of the target's curse power dissipating after death."

Xia Shou felt that Shangguan Yan glanced in his direction, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

He was suddenly jolted, and a certain conjecture suddenly came to mind.

Space... Merlin's House?
Although there is a tendency to force a connection, since the minister has repeatedly hinted at it, it can be basically confirmed that this person who is called Wushu Kingdom is related to Merlin's House.

Shangguan Yan continued, "This is one of the points of doubt; you can just listen to it."

The second point of doubt is actually related to the first point of doubt. That is, the Control Bureau discovered that an anomaly that was supposed to have been eliminated by Wu Shuguo should still be alive. This confirms that Wu Shuguo did indeed forge the report at that time.

It was because of this incident that the authorities began to investigate Wushu Kingdom thoroughly, and that they discovered the first suspicious point.

Undoubtedly, even if Wu Shuguo did not betray the Control Bureau, he must have done a great deal of things behind the Bureau's back. And now it is known that he is a member of the Six Eyes Cult and has such a troublesome quasi-ascended person as the former Wan Nian Li.

When you think about the two things together, it's easy to see that the Wushu Kingdom is a very crucial link, especially since the Wushu Kingdom's special ability is based on probability.

What is probability? Possibility, and that is what worries the Council of the Scepter very much.

Therefore, the parliament was extremely eager to know the purpose behind the actions of the Wushu Kingdom.

After Shangguan Yan finished speaking, he took a deep breath and suddenly changed the subject: "This is the information given to you by your superiors. Now, I'm going to talk about my personal information and my secret assignments to you."

Although I don't know if what I know will be helpful in the subsequent investigation, you should still listen to it for now. Maybe it will be useful?
The video I just showed you was intelligence I obtained privately. I also secretly obtained the medical records about Wu Shuguo, which happened to be with Qiao Xin, so I got them.

I know that old guy Wu Shuguo. He's very powerful, especially among the finishers. There are very few people with his strength and high rationality.

His medical records at the regulatory authority have always been like this.

"See that? He almost never gets injured on missions. Even in the largest operation, which involved four Level 5 cleanup crew members—two killed and one seriously wounded—he only sustained minor injuries and single-handedly carried his surviving comrade out of the alternate dimension."

Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock.

Four Level 5 finishers... This is no ordinary mission, especially since two of them died at the end.

As if worried that everyone might not understand the meaning, Shangguan Yan took the initiative to explain: "You guys are all experienced people who have seen big scenes, especially those who participated in the Rift King Battle. You might think that four cleanup people are nothing, right?"

But Xia and Gao, don't forget that although Charles and Xiana, both level 5, accompanied you during the time of the Rift King, and there were even dozens of transmigrators on the White River side, that was because you were in the old history.

A level 5 finisher only needs to make a move to cause the dissipation of curse power, and the mutual influence will intensify the erosion of curse power.

Unless it's a special scenario like the old history where returning would eliminate all the effects, the Control Bureau would never send multiple Level 5 units into battle unless absolutely necessary.

There are four level 5 characters in total. Wu Shuguo is the only one with a level 4 super antibody, so there are actually three level 5 characters. The enemies that such a complex team has to face are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

I can only mention it briefly, because I don't know the details of that mission; it's top secret.

The reason I emphasize this past event is simply to let you know that Wu Shuguo's ability to protect himself was so exaggerated that it's beyond your imagination.

Shangguan Yan said meaningfully, recalling the battle she had with that old man before she had submitted to the Bureau of Control.

"When it comes to surviving... I know best how capable he is."
