Gacha games can't save this bizarre world.

This was precisely the moment when Xu Kexin was relentlessly banging on the bathroom door. With her banging and cursing, even the freshly baked Black Queen couldn't take it anymore and opened the door prematurely…

The man, disregarding the possibility of disrupting the ceremony, hurried over. Upon arrival, he received news that his half-finished Black Queen had died.

Then Colt arrived with a large group of Secret Service agents, completely surrounding the building.

He couldn't even go up to see what had happened, let alone retrieve his chess pieces and the black book he had worked so hard to obtain.

The man took one last deep look at the dormitory building, turned around, and disappeared into the darkness.

But Zhao Hao, who had just reached the second-floor landing, suddenly glanced out and vaguely saw a figure in a tuxedo from behind.

"Who is that? I think I've seen a superhuman!"

"Where? What place?" Colt immediately peered out and shouted into the walkie-talkie, urging the men in black to give chase.

Unfortunately, nothing was found.

The next day, a corner of the *Liberty City Daily* read: "Liberty City University, College of Arts and Sciences, experienced an explosion in the girls' dormitory due to the illegal use of natural gas, resulting in the tragic deaths of two female students. One was named Selene, and the other was an exchange student from the Song Dynasty named Kexin Xu."

……

This battle wasn't too dangerous; at least compared to the previous fake bronze-level giant eagle girl, it wasn't like being suppressed anymore.

Zhao Hao was able to fight the tainted blood ghost with relative ease.

The problem is that this thing has too many methods, and it's too ruthless.

Firstly, its true form is actually a mass of psionic, foul blood. Even physical attacks imbued with psionic energy can only inflict limited damage, not a fatal blow. Zhao Hao could only kill it by slowly wearing it down with the Dragon Slayer Blade.

Unfortunately, this thing has a pretty good regenerative ability; it can take over a human body at any time and regenerate through blood.

Its spiritual energy can also penetrate directly under the skin, causing large-scale flesh damage, bruising, and swelling.

Zhao Hao's spiritual resistance was 5 points, much higher than that of ordinary superhumans, yet his shoulder was swollen and bruised, turning purple and blue. After being sprayed with a mouthful of foul blood, he couldn't lift his arm within seconds.

If an ordinary person were sprayed with this, they would likely suffer severe internal bleeding and extensive bruising. At the very least, it would be a serious injury!

If it were to take over a new body, it would be equivalent to a major recovery.

In this kind of girls' dormitory environment, it's like a BOSS that can recover most of its health every one or two minutes! If your damage output isn't high enough, you simply can't kill it!

If it hadn't directly targeted Sylvia, who possessed the highest potential for psychic energy and had already awakened into a transcendent being, only to be outmaneuvered by Zhao Hao's contingency plan, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

And it can even escape through the filth and the mirror!

If Winston hadn't gone up and chopped the shiny stainless steel plate that was so bright it could be used as a mirror, that filthy female ghost would have definitely run away!

In that situation, Zhao Hao really didn't dare to hold back. Although he could overpower it, he had no confidence in killing it.

Even the barrier would be eroded by her psychic blood.

It would be more reassuring to kill it with five bolts of lightning!

Although this thing's psionic level isn't at the Bronze level, it's at least a Black Iron 5-star. It's already so diverse and troublesome in its very first appearance.

Zhao Hao didn't regret using the Heavenly Capital Five Thunder Talisman at all, though he was definitely heartbroken.

This incident also made Zhao Hao reflect again that he still lacked sufficiently effective magical means!

Especially the kind that makes the final decision!

"I fought to the death for the safety of the people, as well as for Amei's property and stability, and used my only trump card to save my life! I've suffered a huge loss! The Mysterious Bureau can't let its heroes down!"

As the saying goes, the squeaky wheel gets the grease, and the squeaky wheel gets sucked. Zhao Hao definitely needs to complain to Colt about it.

"Okay, okay! I won't mistreat you. Let me catch my breath first!" Colt's head was about to explode.

Fortunately, Zhao Hao resolved this extraordinary incident in time. If it had caused widespread casualties, even the director of the Mysterious Bureau would have been in trouble! This is Free City University, after all!

……

Although the incident was suppressed and did not cause panic or unrest among ordinary people, some large conglomerates and powerful forces in the real world still knew about it.

The Mysterious Bureau investigated the matter with all its might, and in less than thirty hours, it pieced together the general outline of the incident through various means.

First of all, this incident was deliberate. Someone orchestrated it!

That black book and the Black Queen's pieces have already revealed too much.

The identity of this person has been almost completely uncovered. He is an old-school, self-taught superhuman named McGeek Fuli, known in the community as The Magician.

That's right, this person was a somewhat famous magician more than 20 years ago.

As for when he awakened his psychic powers and became a superhuman, no one knows.

At that time, the psychic powers were dormant, and superhumans were very low-key and kept a low profile.

And those self-taught extraordinary individuals like McGeek R&F, who have no lineage or mentors, are even less worthy of mention.

Everyone lives a low-key life like this, with a certain identity in the real world being their primary identity, while being a superhuman is a secondary, hidden identity.

After the psychic resurgence, this person became much more active in the Free City area, then suddenly disappeared for a long time. Recently, it was rumored that he had reappeared here, but his whereabouts are elusive, and even the Bureau of Mysticism, using some divination methods, could not pinpoint his exact location.

However, intelligence indicates that he obtained half a set of chess pieces two years ago, which was a treacherous set.

A month ago, he paid a huge price to exchange for the black book that is now sealed by the Bureau of Mysteries from a superhuman in the Otherworld.

Considering the numerous similar supernatural events that have occurred on the East Coast in the past year or two, and the fact that the Mysterious Bureau previously sealed away the black soldier chess piece because of Zhao Hao... it's possible that all of these things were done by the magician McGeek.

The time with Heidegger, the time with the "chess piece killer," and now this time in the girls' dormitory—Zhao Hao has ruined the other party's plans three times without either party's knowledge. What a coincidence!

Colt flipped through the documents in his hand, then slammed them on the table: "This bastard seems to have joined a secret society! I now suspect that this society is full of bastards like him!"

Chapter 100 Extraordinary Senior Sister

In the recent incident at the girls' dormitory of Liberal City Arts and Sciences College, Zhao Hao used up his precious Heavenly Capital Five Thunder Talisman. That was a bronze-level strategic deterrent! He hadn't even used it when fighting that fake bronze-level big-eagle cute girl.

After all, the Secret Service had a tall guy at the front back then, and Zhao Hao, a temporary worker, didn't need to risk his life.

But right now, in the women's dormitory at Liberty City University, if something went wrong, countless people could die. Zhao Hao couldn't take that risk; after all, he had that much sense of responsibility.

"Uncle Tie must be very pleased to know my choice, right? I didn't embarrass him! He should be able to give me another one, right?"

I still feel a little sorry for him!

Of course, it wasn't without its gains.

First, there's the reward from the Secret Service: $30000 in cash plus 500 merit points, even more than what Sally gave at the previous banquet.

Zhao Hao is now close to collecting 1,000 merit points. The Mysterious Bureau still has many good items, so he needs to find time to exchange them.

Then comes the point of destiny.

Zhao Hao killed the filthy female ghost with a lightning strike, gaining +139 Fate Points. He also completed a quest: "No zuo no retribution," earning +80 Fate Points. Adding to his gains from daily check-ins, Zhao Hao has now accumulated 491 Fate Points.

During his break, Zhao Hao went to help out at the antique shop and told Uncle Tie about what had happened at the academy.

Uncle Tie nodded: "I've heard about it, it's caused quite a stir. Many superhumans and powerful groups in Free City have received notices from the Bureau of Mysteries to issue a widespread warrant for the arrest of that magician."

"But if he hides in the inner world, not many people will be able to do anything to him. After all, the inner world is so big that it's easy to find a place to hide and it will take several years to find him."

This is why the Mysterious Bureau doesn't have much influence among superhumans. Firstly, it's not very powerful itself. On the contrary, because it's an official organization, many superhumans spontaneously dislike and resist it.

Secondly, the Mysterious Bureau has very little influence on the Inner World, and has even tried to infiltrate it but failed, lacking influence.

Without any deterrent effect, the extraordinary individuals naturally don't take the Mysterious Bureau seriously.

Of course, the situation has improved in the last two years.

Although the resurgence of psionic energy has made the superhumans stronger and more active, the Bureau of Mysteries has also become increasingly powerful, with its strength growing day by day as funding, personnel, and attention have increased.

In particular, they have sealed away many strange objects. Although the research on these objects often causes numerous accidents and kills many employees (just kidding), the gains are also enormous.

It can be said that the Secret Service's level of psionic mechanics ranks among the top three in the entire world.

After all, they've already created psionic robots and psionic mechs! They're just a bit rough around the edges.

This has already made up for many of the shortcomings caused by the small number of superhumans.

After learning that the incident was caused by a black book that appeared in the library, which ultimately led to the tragic deaths of the two girls, Uncle Tie sighed, "Every powerful thing that enters the lives of mortals has its drawbacks. The situation of ordinary people is getting worse and worse!"

……

This incident has garnered significant attention, and Winston and Sylvia were naturally taken back for testing and treatment.

Zhao Hao wasn't worried about Sylvia. After all, she was already considered a superhuman, and a rare predictive one at that, making her a treasure to the Mysterious Bureau.

But what about Winston? They'll probably have to take him back to the station for photos.

Zhao Hao naturally didn't want his friend's memory to be erased, since that kind of thing does have some side effects.

This is a genius's brain, don't mess it up!

Zhao Hao, of course, pleaded for leniency.

In reality, many ordinary people know about the superhumans in the other world. Large conglomerates with long histories and powerful organizations with superhumans have cultivated many ordinary people.

As long as one's mind is not affected by extraordinary information, the Mystic Bureau generally doesn't interfere.

However, this time Winston directly intervened in the supernatural event and even fought with the supernatural monsters.

Normally, they would be photographed. Just like Zhao Hao did with Julia, the girl who went to the secluded forest.

Zhao Hao said some nice things, and the testers said that the tower had a high potential for psionic energy, and the psionic reaction was very strong after this incident.

Colt ultimately decided to wait and see.

However, because Winston was exceptionally skilled in semiconductors and electronic programming, Colt hired him as a contract employee. Like Zhao Hao, he became a proud "temporary worker."

The field of psionic mechanics is just emerging and needs research talent who excels in semiconductors and electronic programming and has a high chance of awakening psionic abilities.

Sylvia was also recruited by the Bureau of Mysteries. As a prophetic talent, she received exceptionally good treatment.

It's like sitting back and all sorts of perks come your way.

So-called divination and prophecy are processes that rely on one's own spirituality and energy to interact with information in the spiritual ocean, which requires a special talent. It is generally difficult to learn later in life.

Having this talent allows one to make predictions through various means. And tools like tarot cards, crystal balls, coins, tortoise shells, astrology, and dreams are all forms of information exchange.

……

After lunch that day, Zhao Hao went to a coffee shop near the college as agreed.

Zhao Hao ordered a cup of green tea and began to wait.
