Chinese Superman

Chapter 151 The World's Strongest, the Holy Son in Divine Armor!

Zhongnan Mountain, Louguantai.

Half asleep, Xia Xinghan slowly opened his eyes, a trace of drowsiness still lingering in them.

He looked up and saw Bai Xianshuang and Qingluan return safely. He nodded slightly and said, "You've worked hard. Get some rest and consolidate what you've gained from this experience."

"Yes, Master."

Bai Xianshuang let out a clear cry, gracefully folded its wings, and lay down to the side, closing its eyes to regulate its breathing, recalling the supreme sword realm of "Crane and Sword as One".

Qingluan transformed into a beam of mysterious light, traversing mountains and valleys from Louguantai back to its own little hilltop. It climbed onto the mossy rock, activated the "Turtle Breath True Mystery Technique," and with its little paws, embraced a spirit stone, inhaling and exhaling moonlight to refine spiritual matter.

Xia Xinghan's attention fell on the spoils that Bai Xianshuang had brought back.

There are dark and ancient Arabian bronze hands, strangely shaped clay figurines of the Rope Pattern Era, and Pandora's Box that exudes an aura of calamity, among others.

The bronze hand and the clay figurine, two of the relics, fell into silence after the "deaths" of their owners, William and Hirosaki, their spiritual light receding, becoming like ordinary objects.

However, just as he picked up the bronze hand and carefully examined the runes engraved on the surface of its "skin"—

"Buzz—"

The bronze hand trembled slightly without warning!

The ancient patterns on the surface suddenly shone with a rustic bronze luster.

"The dormant relics have been revived."

"Oh?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Xia Xinghan's eyes, but it was also within his expectations.

"The dormant relic has come back to life; it seems its owner has truly been resurrected."

"The Bronze Hand has been resurrected; it means William, who was the first to self-destruct, has been brought back to life."

Xia Xinghan stroked his chin and turned to look at another relic.

Not long after.

The clay figurine next to it, with its exaggerated proportions and squinting, horizontally striped eyes, was originally as lifeless as clay, but then two beams of light burst forth from its "squinting eyes".

Xia Xinghan's lips curled up slightly: "It seems that the Pantheon does indeed have some trump cards up its sleeve; it can actually resurrect the dead."

He lowered the bronze hand, letting it and the clay figurine resonate and glow slightly to the side.

"Now that Hirosaki has also recovered—"

"Perfect timing, my backup plan can finally come in handy."

Xia Xinghan closed his eyes again, once again entering a mysterious state of being half asleep and half awake.

There was a faint, unseen connection between him and something else.

Through this connection, Xia Xinghan "opened his eyes" as if entering a dream, and "saw" the Parthenon from afar.

The people and things here seem shrouded in a dreamlike glow, almost unreal.

Everything has a double image.

Every word they spoke echoed with deafening force.

"Is this the Pantheon?"

"The three people seated on the highest stone chairs must be the strongest members of the Pantheon, right?"

Xia Xinghan observes everything through the dream butterfly hidden in Guangqi's consciousness.

"Hmm, why is that woman in the white dress staring at me... no, at Hirozaki? Have I given myself away?"

Xia Xinghan noticed the gaze of the Goddess of Wisdom.

The next moment, a woman's voice cried out urgently, "Wait! There seems to be something on Hirosaki's body!"

"There seems to be something foreign on Hirosaki!"

"There seems to be a foreign object!"

"foreign body----"

The echoes continued to reverberate in my dream.

"Oh no! Mengdie has been discovered!!"

Xia Xinghan acted decisively, controlling Mengdie to break out of Guangqi's sea of ​​consciousness and unleash a blue storm.

A moment later, Xia Xinghan opened his eyes, a smile on his lips.

The power of "the purification of the Parthenon, the goddess of wisdom"? Quick reaction, swift methods. Quite capable.

.

"However, Hiroki and William's consciousness have already been pulled into the depths of the constructed Dream Corridor. Unless they can find relics similar to the Song Dynasty Ding kiln white glaze child pillow, even if they are resurrected a thousand times, all they will get is an empty shell."

"Even if there are indeed relics that have entered my dreams, it would be extremely difficult to accurately locate them within my Dream Corridor and extract their consciousness."

Although he was quite confident in his methods, Xia Xinghan still took the "resurrection" ability displayed by the Pantheon and the power of the Parthenon seriously.

He pondered for a moment, then contacted Mr. Qian directly via his communication bracelet.

"Grandpa, I need detailed information about the Western Pantheon, the more comprehensive the better."

Professor Qian responded very quickly and efficiently.

Not only did they send the Pantheon's files, but they also included a summary of intelligence on the world's major supernatural forces.

Xia Xinghan quickly browsed through the pages.

First, there's the naming and ranking of extraordinary individuals. The West did not adopt the Xia Dynasty's "wielders" system, but instead collectively referred to them as "extraordinary individuals."

Strength levels are simply divided using letters:

Class C Weapon Holder: Class C Superhuman; Class B Weapon Holder: Class B Superhuman, and so on.

The Guardian of the Nation corresponds to an SS-level extraordinary being, while the Holy Guardian corresponds to an SSS-level extraordinary being!

Fortunately, there was no one above the Holy Order. Xia Xinghan said that there weren't many S's left for them.

Next is the introduction of the factions.

The Pantheon, headquartered at the Parthenon, is one of the two top supernatural powers in the West.

The core is the "Big Three"!

[God King]: Suspected of possessing a powerful relic related to the ancient Greek "Zeus" or the Roman "Jupiter", the specifics are unknown, and his strength is assessed as SS-level.

He is the leader and strongest fighter of the Pantheon.

The remaining two are Athena and Hades.

It's worth mentioning that [Pluto], despite being in charge of relics from ancient Egypt, is called [Pluto].

It's worth noting that Hades is the god of the underworld in ancient Greek mythology.

Apart from the three SS-level extraordinary individuals, the organization also has several S-level (legendary) members and a large number of A and B-level members.

Another top Western power capable of rivaling the Pantheon is the Holy See, which is based in the Vatican.

At its core is that mysterious holy son.

According to available information, he is very likely the only SSS-level superhuman currently recognized globally!

He alone wielded power over items including the Shroud of Turin (which is suspected to contain the power of "resurrection" or "divine immortality").

The Holy Grail (legend says it contained the blood of the Holy One and possesses infinite healing and blessing power), the True Cross (the strongest sacred symbol and an object for warding off evil), the Crown of Thorns, and the Robe are among the many Christian relics included!

Upon seeing this, Xia Xinghan exclaimed, "Wow!"

The so-called Holy Son is armed to the teeth.

With so many top-tier relics gathered in one body, its power is immeasurable, earning it the reputation of "the strongest being of our time" and "a deity walking among mortals".

"Looking at it this way, Sun Kongkong's ordinary-looking plow does indeed seem a bit shabby."

Xia Xinghan shook his head helplessly.

The opponent was decked out in glowing gear; there was no comparison. It was like the difference between a whale (a player who spends a lot of money on in-game purchases) and a regular player.

However, the information also mentions that the Spear of Longinus, known as the "Spear of Destiny" and the "strongest weapon for killing gods," is currently missing and has not been confirmed to be in the hands of the Holy See.

Besides these two giants, there is also a supernatural organization in the West called the "Old Testament," whose strength is slightly inferior to the former two, but it should not be underestimated.

They possess important relics such as the legendary Ark of the Covenant and the Dead Sea Scrolls.

In addition, the Mauryan Empire, which relied on the heritage of ancient Indian civilization, and the Ancient Secret Societies, which both cooperated and competed with the Pantheon, were also extremely powerful supernatural forces.

When Xia Xinghan turned to the section on Africa and the Middle East, his brows furrowed slightly.

Unlike other regions where extraordinary forces have risen and either joined or confronted state apparatuses, Egypt—one of the four ancient civilizations—has suffered a catastrophe.

The spiritual energy has been restored, "awakening" the pyramids.

A massive spiritual disaster, assessed as "super S-level," swept across Egypt almost instantly.

Outside the city, pyramids rise again, legions of mummies crawl from the yellow sand, and the sun boat and the phantom of Anubis, the god of death, streak across the sky.

The terrifying and spectacular scenes that you only see in movies actually happen in the real world!

The modern Egyptian government and army collapsed in a short period of time!

Hundreds of millions were either enslaved, transformed into servants of the dead, or died violent deaths.

Modern cities like Cairo have become ghost towns.

On the ancient banks of the Nile, it seems as if overnight, we have regressed to the era of the Pharaohs!

The aftermath of this disaster even reached Europe.

London, the foggy city, has fallen!

Inside the British Museum, precious artifacts from Egypt, including mummies, coffins, and amulets, have been revitalized on a large scale by spiritual energy, triggering a chain reaction.

There are more than 140 mummies alone.

There are also the pyramids, the Rosetta Stone, and so on. If you don't fall for them, who will?

"No wonder William and his men used 'solving the mummy incident' as bait—"

Xia Xinghan put down the documents, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"The true situation in Chongqing is probably a hundred times worse than they describe!"

"If the West didn't have extraordinary powers like the Pantheon, the Holy See, and the Ancient Societies, it's estimated that Chongqing and even the whole of Europe would be gone."

Xia Xinghan looked at the photos of the foggy city taken by the Tianyan satellite, and saw that the Bloomsbury area, where the British Museum is located, had been completely desertified.

Much of London is buried under yellow sand!

"Holy Son — God King — Goddess of Wisdom — Hades — Old Man —"

"The West is really chaotic."

"Very well, it's almost the end of the year. During the New Year, the Xia people value harmony and peace, so I will not launch the western expedition. Instead, I will send you a few small gifts."

Xia Xinghan's smile was radiant and bright, both adorable and innocent.

He didn't take the bait at all and didn't immediately set off westward despite the Pantheon's provocations and schemes.

"Since you've gone to such lengths to fish for me," he said, "I'll go out, and you've chosen the location." He looked westward, his harmless smile gradually turning cold. "Then the time will be up to me."

He decided to visit them after the New Year.

However, a small gift must be sent before visiting.

The following day, he summoned Bai Xianshuang and handed her the Pandora's Box, along with several other Western artifacts seized from William and Guangqi.

"Send this box and these items to the base and hand them over to Mr. Qian. Tell him that they are a gift from a friendly nation and ask them to handle them properly."

""

Bai Xianshuang accepted the order and left.

Although she didn't understand the deeper meaning, and was only interested in swordsmanship and cultivation, she never hesitated to carry out her master's orders.

That night, Xia Xinghan, unusually, watched the news.

"Breaking News! A large-scale outbreak of an unexplained plague occurred in the Acropolis and surrounding area of ​​Athens, Greece, this afternoon local time!"

"Patient symptoms include high fever, hallucinations, skin ulcers, etc., and the disease spreads extremely rapidly!"

"Meanwhile, paranormal phenomena have occurred in several parts of the Acropolis, including reports of statues coming to life and ghosts appearing on ancient battlefields—the authorities have urgently sealed off the area, but the situation continues to deteriorate—"

"—According to information provided by European journalists, sporadic similar cases and paranormal phenomena have also appeared in northern Italy, suspected to be influenced by the spread of the Athens disaster."

The Vatican has not yet officially responded, but it is understood that the Holy See has increased security.

"Breaking news: those infected with the plague are becoming extremely aggressive; they will bite!"

In the broadcast footage, the once solemn Acropolis of Athens was shrouded in an ominous gray-green mist, with distorted light and shadow and panicked figures vaguely visible.

The terrified voice of a reporter from a European television station, along with the faint screams coming from afar, created an apocalyptic scene.
