Chinese Superman

Chapter 174 It's a disaster

After offering incense, Qiao Chunxia felt relieved and began to take off her tattered clothes.

She had just unbuttoned two buttons when she suddenly froze, as if she had remembered something crucial, and two blushes instantly rose on her cheeks.

"ah!"

Qiao Chunxia gasped and hurriedly took off the antique bronze ring from her right index finger. Then, like a thief, she quickly ran to the bedside, picked up a pillow, and pressed the ring down firmly underneath it!

After finishing all this, she patted her chest, let out a long sigh, and chuckled a little sheepishly towards the pillow, "I almost forgot—Grandpa Ring, um—I'm changing clothes, so—you—you shouldn't look! That way you won't see it!"

'

'

At the top of the Great Wall, Xia Xinghan, who was "watching" this scene through Mengdie, was first stunned, then laughed.

"She really does think of me as the old man with the ring."

"Should we tell her that even if she buries the ring under her pillow, it won't help, after all—the Dream Butterfly has already taken up residence in her sea of ​​consciousness?"

Dream Butterfly is mysterious, a transformation of a dream.

It is naturally invisible to the naked eye, and even ordinary divine sense cannot detect it, because it is not a simple spiritual force, but a dream, which is mysterious and profound.

Unless one cultivates a martial arts divine eye that can see through the mysteries, or possesses a dream-like relic like Xia Xinghan, one must learn dream-like martial arts.

But to date, among the millions of martial artists, very few have mastered the techniques of Zhuangzi's Butterfly Dream and the Sun and Moon in the Pillow.

The rustling sounds from the toilet signaled that Qiao Chunxia was starting to undress.

Seeing this, Xia Xinghan shook his head, telling Mengdie to quiet down and stop watching.

He stood up and stood atop the wall.

The night breeze ruffled his thick, cascading black hair, revealing his handsome, youthful profile with its sharp lines.

Ten years have passed, and he is only thirteen years old, but his extraordinary rapid development makes him look like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy.

Xia Xinghan's appearance was frozen at the peak of his youth and handsomeness at the age of sixteen. Without a trace of childishness, his youth and good looks were perfectly blended together, making him look like the most dazzling sunrise, God's best masterpiece.

Her figure is somewhat incongruous with her appearance.

He is tall and upright, nearly 1.85 meters tall, with smooth and perfect muscle lines. He possesses explosive power, yet he does not appear clumsy. Instead, he has a natural sense of coordination and beauty.

Xia Xinghan, now grown up, has transformed from cute to perfect.

The moonlight and the golden glow of the Great Wall itself fell upon him, making him appear as if a god had descended to earth.

Yes, gods!

When he is silent, even if he is just sitting there motionless, he no longer seems like an ordinary person.

Only when speaking, smiling, or killing does one possess a "human touch".

Xia Xinghan's mind stirred slightly, and he said, "Jingwei."

"Yes, Master~"

A clear, melodious, and slightly mischievous girl's voice rang out.

Immediately afterwards, a virtual girl the size of a palm was projected onto the communication bracelet on his wrist, glowing with iridescent light.

She was lively and adorable, dressed in a simple palace costume, with her hair styled in double buns.

Looking closely, it increasingly resembles Hatsune Miku in ancient costume.

Jingwei flew around Xia Xinghan joyfully once.

"Master is getting more and more handsome. Even Jingwei is smitten."

"Stop being so sarcastic and send a message to Gu Zhi Qiu."

Xia Xinghan was used to Jingwei's mischievousness and instructed, "There's a small gang called the Wild Wolf Gang in Ancheng that controls some entrances to underground cities. They do dirty work, so have her take them down while she's at it. Also, investigate the family background of a student named Li Yaozong. His father seems to have started out in the spirit stone trade. If his background isn't clean, get rid of him too. Be discreet and don't make too much of a fuss."

"Yes, Master! I'll pass the message on to Sister Zhi Qiu right away!"

Jingwei chuckled and agreed. She casually tapped the void, and an image of an envelope flashed a few times before flying out, instantly traversing thousands of kilometers and heading towards the capital.

imperial capital.

Ten years have passed, and this megacity has become even more prosperous. Under the dazzling night view, flying vehicles of various shapes and sizes fly in an orderly manner in the designated sky corridors, like schools of deep-sea fish, forming a fantastic picture of the future city.

Even in this steel jungle, one skyscraper still stands out, hundreds of stories high, like a sharp sword piercing the sky.

The enormous lettering displayed on the glass curtain wall revealed the skyscraper's identity: "Headquarters of the Weapon Controllers Bureau."

-

Inside the building, countless staff members bustled about, handling a vast array of complex matters related to weapon wielders, cultivators, and unusual events across the country.

Back then, the Bronze Tree revived on its own and collected all the unclaimed relics from the land of China.

After the numerous apocalypses were suppressed, the spiritual disasters were eliminated, and the resources of the Bronze Tree were exhausted, many relics were left behind at the base.

The base seized the opportunity to select numerous weapon handlers from the organization and then dispatched them to various parts of the country to maintain post-disaster order, thus forming the prototype of the Weapon Handler Administration.

Actually, finding a home for lost items is quite simple, just like finding a blind date.

If you let people pass by the relics one by one, someone will eventually take a liking to them.

This is why aristocratic families often have many weapon wielders.

As long as you have a lot of relics, you won't have to worry about finding someone to carry them.

Apart from sacred relics, national treasures, and heirlooms, the criteria for choosing owners for most relics are not that high.

Relics that autonomously revive and fly back to their owners are extremely rare; the only known example is the Sacred Relic [耒耜].

It is said that the original master of the Lei Si was not Sun Kongkong, and a food crisis after the Great Destruction proved this point.

The top floor of the building.

A panoramic office.

A woman with a sharp dark uniform, a white trench coat over it, and short, neat hair stood with her hands behind her back in front of the curtain wall.

Her appearance remained unchanged, still as aloof and youthful as when she was first seen at the base, yet her eyes and brows held the authority and competence of someone who had long held a high position. Her posture was as upright as a pine tree, and her aura was unfathomable.

It was Gu Zhi Qiu, Xia Xing Han's eldest disciple, who is now the head of the entire Great Xia Weapon Holders and Special Affairs Management System.

She had just finished a video conference to discuss joint exploration of the "world outside the wall," and there was a hint of fatigue between her brows.

"The junior brothers and sisters have it so easy."

She sighed softly, gazing at the bustling night view outside the window, her tone tinged with nostalgia.

"Qingluan lives a carefree life as the master of Zhongnan Mountain, refining elixirs and cultivating herbs every day; Xianshuang travels the world, honing his swordsmanship; Xiaohu is in the [Martial God Hall] ————"

"I'm even a little envious of my master. Sitting on the Great Wall, sharing the fate of the nation, watching the clouds rise and fall—"

Just then, the communication bracelet on her wrist vibrated slightly.

Gu Zhi Qiu's cold and dignified face instantly melted away like spring snow, revealing a genuine smile: "Eh? It's a message from Master!"

"It's rare for him to message me, his eldest disciple."

For some reason, Xia Xinghan rarely takes the initiative to contact others.

Play a voice message.

At a command, Gu Zhi Qiu heard Jing Wei's recording voice.

"The Wild Wolf Gang?"

After listening, Gu Zhi Qiu frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

"Ancheng territory—never heard of it before? Probably some low-level gang."

"How could such a small gang have offended Master?"

With her current status and vision, she is in charge of extraordinary affairs across the country, dealing with major national security matters every day. A small gang in a local city is indeed like dust, not even worthy of her attention.

What she was more curious about was how a speck of dust could have offended a god sitting high in the heavens.

"However, since it was specifically instructed by Master, of course I must do it."

Gu Zhi Qiu's expression turned serious. Even for such a small matter, she still personally gave the order.

"Investigate the Wild Wolf Gang in Ancheng and the family background of a student named Li Yaozong. If there is any illegal or criminal activity, and the evidence is conclusive, take immediate action."

After sending the message, Gu Zhi Qiu stopped paying attention to it.

Normally, such trivial matters wouldn't even get to her ears, let alone be handled by her personally.

However, this order from the highest level of the General Administration was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, causing a series of violent shocks within the system of those who wield the weapons!

General Administration Confidential Secretariat: "Minister Gu personally intervened? Ancheng? The Wild Wolf Gang?"

"Quickly! Retrieve all relevant files! Contact the Intelligence Analysis Department! I need a detailed report within five minutes!"

The section chief looked grave.

Although he had never heard of the Wild Wolf Gang, and had no idea how the Wild Wolf Gang had offended the headquarters chief, the fact that the chief personally opened fire meant that they were no ordinary people!

Intelligence Analysis Department: "Ancheng? Isn't that a third-tier city in Huizhou? Has the Wild Wolf Gang gotten into some big trouble?"

"Quickly, retrieve all the files on forces in Ancheng and search for the Wild Wolf Gang! Also, investigate Li Yaozong, his family members, social connections, and economic dealings thoroughly! Priority: Urgent!"

"Immediately contact the head of the Jiangnan region and ask if any super S-level catastrophic spiritual disaster has occurred in Ancheng, and if there is any concealment or failure to report it!"

Jiangnan Regional Branch of the Armed Forces: "What?! Headquarters has directly bypassed our command to issue this order? The target is in Ancheng? Quick! Notify the head of the Ancheng branch! No, I'll contact him personally! Have them stand by immediately and prepare for action! At the same time, thoroughly investigate whether anyone within our organization has any connection with this Wild Wolf Gang! Hurry!"

The regional manager was so shocked that he jumped up from his chair, sweat beading on his forehead.

Ancheng Armorers Branch:

Late at night, Wang Hai, the branch director, was at home tutoring his son in the basic Spirit Forging Technique when his communicator suddenly vibrated wildly. Seeing that it was his superior, the director of the Jiangnan Regional Bureau, calling in person, he felt a pang of anxiety and quickly answered the call.

"Wang Hai! What the hell are you doing?!"

"what?"

Wang Hai was completely bewildered.

I'm tutoring my son with his homework.

"Isn't there some kind of 'Wild Wolf Gang' in Ancheng?! And what's with this high school student named Li Yaozong?!"

"Immediately! Right now! Assemble all available personnel! Seal off the relevant areas! Detain all suspects! Await further instructions from headquarters and the region! Act swiftly! Act cleanly! If even a whisper of this leaks out, you can prepare to retire to a border post!"

The regional director launched into a tirade, his tone unusually stern and urgent.

Wang Hai was completely stunned by the shout, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

"The Wild Wolf Gang? Li Yaozong?"

His mind raced, and he vaguely remembered that it was some inconspicuous local gang that controlled several low-level dungeon entrances.

But such a small gang doesn't even have the right to "pay tribute" to him.

Who else is Li Yaozong?

Wang Hai racked his brains, sweat beading on his forehead, before he could barely recall that at a gathering of entrepreneurs in Ancheng, a nouveau riche sitting at a corner table had brought his son up to offer a toast, and then nothing more.

How did such a nobody suddenly attract the attention of the regional head?!

How could you make him lose his composure like this?!

"Yes, sir! I'll get right on it! I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"

Wang Hai dared not delay in the slightest. He immediately made a phone call to mobilize manpower, cursing the Wild Wolf Gang and the Li family a thousand times in his heart.

At the same time, a chill ran from the soles of my feet straight up to the top of my head.

For the General Administration of Radio, Film and Television to directly name someone like that, what kind of mess must they have made?!

Could it be some kind of hellish dungeon that's been flipped?

The dungeon difficulty is the same as the previous [Otherworld]'s classification of Earth's [Dungeons], with five levels from low to high:

Easy, normal, difficult, nightmare, purgatory!

Among them, the Purgatory-level dungeons already contain god-tier monsters, and the coverage is extremely wide.

Judging from the events in the Jincheng instance before the Great Cataclysm, a reversal of a Purgatory-level instance could affect the entire Jiangnan region.

Only a truly earth-shattering event like this could make the head of the Jiangnan region act this way.
