Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

There was complete silence in the huge conference room.

It was as if the image I had just seen from that sophisticated projector was just a clip from a movie.

If only this were a movie. The current situation is that everyone is silent because this is not a movie, but something that is actually happening.

"Alright, gentlemen, now is not the time for silence. The prestige of the United States is facing an unprecedented crisis because of a vicious criminal. Now, let's all share our opinions on what to do. This is a conference room, not a library in Washington. Silence will not solve the problem!"

A balding middle-aged white man, wrinkling his sharp, hooked nose, stared intently at the crowd around him, his gaze as sharp as a vulture surveying its territory.

The people around him ignored his gaze. The other party was indeed a formidable figure, but those who could stay in this conference room and listen to this old vulture boasting were no ordinary people either.

The video just now was of Miyazaki Yu capturing the entire special forces team. And besides the version circulating online, what these guys could see was much more extensive than the original version.

Special forces soldiers all carry cameras. When they are defeated, each of them records some video. These videos, when put together, form first-hand information.

Then there's the video footage of the building across the street. Although this kind of video is often lost, it won't be lost if the country needs it.

The building's management wouldn't, like some schools, allow certain cameras to malfunction, nor would they need to.

Therefore, the scenes of Miyazaki Yu taking action inside the building were also recorded.

Therefore, the videos from these three aspects were compiled together and subjected to data analysis.

The data obtained, however, was terrifying.

The conclusions drawn by the data analysis experts were echoing in everyone's ears.

"First, we analyzed the speed. This Miyazaki swordsman's speed is terrifying. To ensure the accuracy of the data, our five analysts extracted different segments from videos from different sources and conducted positional analysis, just like the methods used to capture images on highways. We calculated the speed of movement based on the time it takes for an object to be in different positions."

The conclusion is that this Miyazaki swordsman's movement speed is extremely terrifying. His movement speed in a short period of time even exceeds the speed of sound. In multiple measurements, his movement speed has exceeded the speed of sound at 340 meters per second.

In other words, he has a speed of Mach 1 or higher!

This was collected from a secret archive; none of the world's strongest individuals had ever achieved such greatness!

Neither the figures in the Holy See nor the powerful members of the Dragon Group in the Dragon Kingdom can compare to him. At such a speed, the effectiveness of both supernatural abilities and magic will be greatly reduced, enough to earn him an S-rank rating in the evaluation of extraordinary powerhouses!

What's even more terrifying is that he didn't reveal his attack method at all from beginning to end!

In the conference room, someone protested, "Hasn't he already demonstrated his attack methods?"

The data analyst shook his head: "This Miyazaki Sword Saint has already earned the title of Sword Saint in the Japanese Sword Masters Association. This is the highest honor in swordsmanship. Moreover, according to the information revealed to us by the Japanese government, his greatest skill has always been swordsmanship!"

Moreover, it is a terrifying swordsmanship that can shatter boulders with a longsword!

Therefore, I can describe his strength in general. He has a movement speed of over Mach 1, which is enough to make his figure disappear from the sight of ordinary people, achieving an effect similar to invisibility. After all, ordinary people cannot even capture a 24-frame-per-second scene.

Naturally, there was no way to capture his movements while he was moving at high speed.

Then, he possesses the ability to escape any pursuit in complex environments, including any means of transportation that can be used in urban environments. In other words, as long as he stays in an urban environment, he is an entity that cannot be pursued!

Finally, there's his immense destructive power. According to data provided by the Japanese government, his sword-slashing speed is over 0.002 seconds. This is before he received the title of Sword Saint, and it's comparable to the steel-cutting ability of an ordinary swordsman.

To subdue him in an urban environment, the only options would be to imprison him in an exceptionally sturdy alloy cage or to use weapons of mass destruction within the city.

Overall assessment: Combat strength SSS, Danger level S. If the target begins killing, the danger level will continue to increase!

Chapter 521 Superpowered Individuals and Bio-Warriors

This extremely detailed information and analysis left everyone present feeling absolutely shocked!

As high-ranking officials in the United States, they are well-informed and know that there are many secrets in this world that ordinary people cannot access, and they are also very clear about the extraordinary realm, a world that belongs only to the strong.

When they were young, they had just learned about these things, about how there were exceptionally powerful individual combat forces in this world, and about beings with supernatural abilities and strange powers whose combat strength far exceeded the understanding of ordinary people.

Just like the general public, they were extremely excited and fantasized about having such power themselves.

But as time went by, and as they gradually transformed from naive teenagers into the group of middle-aged, greasy men in suits with potbellies and bald heads they are today, their thinking also gradually changed.

A large amount of money has been invested in researching and analyzing the power of these strong individuals, but such research has yielded very little result.

It is conceivable that modern medicine needs to spend a lot of time and money to develop a specific drug for a certain disease, and there is a great deal of uncertainty involved. The annual cost could very well be in the billions of dollars.

The difficulty of studying these extraordinary individuals is a hundred times greater than that of studying ordinary people. Since the advent of modern society, governments of various major powers have never stopped researching this kind of power.

However, the results were extremely poor. After spending decades, only a few minor research findings were obtained.

Moreover, with the rapid development of technology, weapons have evolved dramatically, and the power of these extraordinary individuals seems to be somewhat insufficient.

Just like the swordsmen of the Sword Masters Guild, if it were ancient times, having the strength of a swordsman would be enough to dominate a region. Imagine, in the era of cold weapons, having the power to cut through steel would almost be enough to roam the world.

Unless one is extremely unlucky and is surrounded by tens of thousands of troops in one place, unable to break through, they will not be truly annihilated.

Similarly, while Orenero, with his psychic abilities, and the Black Priest, with his dark powers, are indeed very strong, they would still be quite vulnerable when faced with real modern technology and modern weapons.

No matter how strong one's mental strength is, it is impossible to withstand a small rocket. Anti-materiel sniper rifles, artillery, tanks, airplanes, as well as rockets and nuclear weapons, etc., have a power that has exceeded the limits of human beings.

In ancient times, those powerful figures who dominated the world had increasingly less and less room to exert their power in modern society. Eventually, these powerful figures even disappeared from people's sight and became legends and myths.

In the process, these bigwigs gradually gave up their youthful fantasies and began to understand that the power of authority is even more terrifying than these extraordinary strongmen. With enough power, even these people can only become pawns in one's hands.

But now, their perception has been distorted once again!

The previously known experts in the extraordinary realms can no longer threaten modern society, but the fundamental reason is simply that modern society's weapons are powerful enough.

However, if there is someone whose strength exceeds the attack range of modern weapons, or even doesn't need to exceed that range, simply rendering conventional weapons ineffective would be enough.

These people have obviously realized that this is a bug in modern society: as long as there is one person with extraordinary strength who can do nothing in the city, no one can shake him.

Here we can draw a comparison with terrorists. The emergence of terrorists is actually not very long. Terrorists appeared alongside modern media. Imagine if it were ancient times, and terrorists kidnapped a few people and tried to threaten the government and force the court to compromise. That would be suicidal.

Because in ancient times, when media was underdeveloped, you couldn't intimidate a city or a country simply by killing a few people.

Therefore, many ancient armies were keen on massacring entire cities because only such large-scale and widespread killings could truly intimidate those within thousands of miles and deter a nation.

In modern times, with the emergence of modern media, the cost for terrorists has decreased. They only need to attack poorly defended places such as schools, cinemas, or buses, and use some crudely made bombs to bring about a violent terrorist effect.

In short, it's not that governments can't deal with terrorists, but rather that these guys' targets are too random and impossible to prevent. However, because of the development of modern media, they can't ignore it, since protecting the safety of all citizens is the foundation of modern society.

This puts the government in a dilemma.

Terrorists can exert a powerful deterrent effect with very little effort, which is the root cause of why terrorists cannot be eliminated.

"It seems that to deal with this Sword Saint, we will need to use superhumans. The United States spends a lot of dollars every year to support them, precisely because they are needed to act at crucial moments!"

A middle-aged white man with narrow eyes spoke up, gently stroking his chin as he spoke, his face bearing a chilling expression.

"It is true that people with superpowers are capable of doing this, but in recent years, supernatural organizations around the world have also been very active. The Dragon Group in China, the Holy Crusade and fanatics of the Vatican in Europe, as well as some underground organizations, are all very active."

The superhumans were also doing their utmost to fight them; these people are the nation's most valuable assets, and if any are lost…”

The words were not fully spoken, but the meaning was already very clear.

Although powerful weapons are sharp, things that are very useful also suffer from severe wear and tear.

The probability of a superhuman awakening naturally is extremely low, only one in several million. The United States has tried its best, but it only has about thirty superhumans at its disposal, and each of them has a mission to complete.

"Hmph, at a time like this, you're still worrying about this! If we continue to let Miyazaki Yu act so recklessly, the United States will become an international laughing stock. There's no need to worry about the loss of superhumans. Everyone has forgotten about those bio-warriors, hasn't they?"

"The bio-engineered soldiers are ready to be deployed? But didn't the report from two months ago point out that these bio-engineered soldiers were still highly unstable, and that if they were used rashly, the consequences would be unpredictable, not only risking loss of control, but also..."

The man sneered, "No, and besides, haven't many people criticized our department for spending money like water without any real results? Can it be a bad thing that we've made a breakthrough?"

Seeing that someone had stepped forward and offered a good solution, everyone nodded in agreement. However, they were a little puzzled. This guy, although the head of the science foundation department, had always been very low-key.

After all, science isn't something you can achieve just by working hard. Often, when the direction is uncertain, you might be wasting money, and spending many years doing so, before you can produce even a little bit of results. But it doesn't matter.

All they want is a result; nothing else matters.

Next, let's see how that extremely arrogant swordsman was captured.

Chapter 522 Montpellier and Karasuma Renya

The head of the science fund department walked out of the government building with a smile and went straight to the exit of the underground parking lot.

His driver was already waiting for him at the entrance of the parking lot. After opening the car door and getting in, he whispered an address and then closed his eyes.

Soon, the vehicle arrived at a secluded manor. The entire manor was surrounded by a quiet environment, and the whole area was a private estate. Ordinary vehicles would not even be able to find this area on a map without a pass.

After passing through two checkpoints and presenting two different passes, we were finally able to enter.

The manor gates opened automatically, and the car pulled up directly in front of a small building. A waiter from the manor was already standing in front of the car, opening the door to welcome him out and holding up a parasol—the service was impeccable.

A smile appeared on the minister's face. This was his private space, where he was the absolute master and would not be disturbed in any way. His slightly tense body completely relaxed at this moment.

Upon entering the small building, a figure was already waiting for him in the hall.

“Mr. Monpel, you’re back.”

The figure slowly turned around, revealing his true face. It was none other than Karasuma Renya, who had not appeared for a long time. This person, who was almost the most mysterious in the world of Detective Conan, actually appeared again at the residence of this high-ranking American official!

"Lord Karasuma, things have indeed developed as we predicted. After an emergency meeting within the government, it has been decided to deploy superhumans and bio-warriors to deal with that Miyazaki swordsman."

As he spoke, he could no longer hide the smugness on his face. Although he was also the leader of a powerful department in the government, the gap between him and those key departments was too great. Yet this time he had become the focus of everyone's attention. Thinking of those guys' expressions, he couldn't help but feel smug.

Once this is accomplished, not only will he be able to hold his head high in the government and write a glorious chapter in his political life, but he may even be able to occupy a more important position in the power structure.

But what's even more important is not these things, but something far more precious.

“Excellent, Minister Monpel, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I never expected this young man to make such a choice. It is truly a pleasant surprise. The body of a powerful being who has reached the realm of gods contains too many secrets!”

His pure and powerful strength, his unparalleled vitality, are so captivating. If his genes could be integrated into bio-warriors, that would be truly perfect, and we might even discover the secret of immortality!

A glint of greed flashed in Montpellier's eyes. Immortality, the ultimate secret of mankind, the greatest desire in a person's heart. The more power one holds, the more wealth and status one possesses, and the older one gets, the deeper the fear of death becomes.

However, he couldn't help but ask, "Is this Miyazaki swordsman's body really that precious?"

Karasuma Renya chuckled: "You've seen the data too. I've carefully studied all his movements and all the data related to him. Although this data is top secret in Japan, it's not a secret to me."

I analyzed all the data I could get countless times, and the conclusion I came to was that he had mastered some terrifying power. His body had surpassed the limits of man and reached the realm of gods. He possessed speed and power that ordinary people could hardly achieve!

Unlike bio-warriors who use drugs and genetic modification to gain superhuman strength, his power is completely balanced and harmonious. This improvement is not only an improvement in himself, but has even penetrated to the genetic level!

If it weren't for the fact that he's younger than us and we couldn't wait any longer, I really wouldn't want to destroy this perfect masterpiece of God!

I'm even willing to wait for his offspring to grow up and observe whether Rang's power can be passed down through genes, but we can't wait any longer. My body has begun to gradually collapse due to the changes in my memories, and I can only maintain it for a dozen years at most.

Even though you don't have any illnesses, the natural aging process must be something you find unbearable, right?

Monpel raised his head slightly, a faint red light gleaming in his eyes—a pure madness.

"You're right. The reason you and I agreed to cooperate in the first place was precisely because of this. I organized the research on cyborgs to study the essence of life for my own benefit. If I wanted to achieve results, I needed to use people for experiments."

As a result, those idiots in the government actually pretended to be serious, saying that they wanted to protect human rights and that people should not be used as experimental subjects, otherwise it would have a major impact on the country's image if it were exposed.
