Gacha games can't save this bizarre world.

A short while later, the person they had arranged to meet arrived. It was none other than the Japanese senior, Nanaya Saki, who was also a superhuman.

She was wearing a white shirt, a blue pleated long skirt, her hair simply tied up, carrying a small bag, and holding a book.

Zhao Hao glanced at it, "Ahem..."

He used his strength of 10 points and his mental strength of 17 points to forcibly stop himself from spitting out the tea.

The book that Nanaya Saki placed on the table was actually Zhao Hao and Gou's newly released book—"About the fact that I was reincarnated as a slutty slime!"

That's right, Zhao Hao is starting to seek a change in style!

You can't let an author with ambition keep writing in the same style or on the same subject, living off the success of a single IP!

To an author with aspirations, rehashing old ideas is unacceptable.

Zhao Hao thought to himself that he couldn't always just copy what he had seen in his mind. So he started to create his own original work.

As for inspiration, it naturally came from Xiaoruan.

This is a story about me, the protagonist, who was reincarnated into another world and became a slime capable of freely transforming and corroding any clothing in order to bring joy to beautiful girls and level up...

Zhao Hao decided to write three million words!

Princesses, queens, female knights, female priests, witches, female elves, female orcs, monster girls, mother dragons... come on all of them!

To my utter surprise, the first volume of my masterpiece ended up in the hands of an acquaintance.

He suppressed his feelings for a long time but couldn't say what was on his mind: "Senior, writing a book is not easy, please read the official version."

The main problem is that his underground publication doesn't have any legitimate copies!

To my utter surprise, Nanaya Saki actually has a taste for this.

But then again, Robin and Pure White are written from a male perspective after all... Wait! Should I write a female-oriented erotic novel? I can't abandon the female market, can I? Women subscribe too—they hold up half the sky!

How about the title "Captured at the Start: Seven Husbands Are Hard to Deal With"?

Nanaya Saki placed the book on the table, smiled, and extended her hand to Zhao Hao. "Let's get to know each other again. I'm Nanaya Saki, an exchange student from Japan, the eldest daughter of the Nanaya family, and a psychic..."

Zhao Hao shook hands with her. "Zhao Hao, a... barrier master."

According to the Bureau of Mysteries' regulations, if superhumans from other countries enter Ame, they must be notified.

Of course, those extraordinary individuals don't care about the Mysterious Bureau, so this legal provision is practically useless.

The Bureau of Mysteries doesn't even know how many superhumans exist in the local world; they can only say that they encounter superhumans during missions and then register them.

However, Nanaya Saki had asked Zhao Hao not to mention herself to the Mysterious Bureau.

After considering it for a moment, Zhao Hao agreed.

After all, I'm just a temporary worker, not even a contract worker. So why work so hard?

It would be better to do this extraordinary senior a favor.

Let's have some tea first~

At that moment, Zhao Hao and Qiye Saki looked at each other from upstairs on the stairs, both feeling that the other was not simple.

From Zhao Hao's perspective, he saw that the ancient samurai sword in Nanaya Saki's hand was burning with intense spiritual energy, definitely not something simple. The more spiritual energy the ornaments on her body possessed, the more valuable they seemed.

Hidden within the spiritual energy behind Nanaya Saki are two enormous, horned demons.

Zhao Hao couldn't make out the appearance of the two things; he could only make out a vague black shadow.

This is clearly not the kind of spontaneous awakening that Sylvia experienced. Sylvia doesn't even know she's a superhuman, let alone possess these superhuman items.

However, Nanaya Saki believes that Zhao Hao is no ordinary person either.

Not to mention the five massive thunderbolts that shattered all the windows on the entire floor; the noise and power of that were just too great!

The talismans in Zhao Hao's hand alone indicate that he has a lineage. This kind of thing cannot be created without being taught.

Moreover, the shadow dog Wangcai, which was watching Zhao Hao's shadow, made Nanaya Saki's guardian spirits, the Red Oni and the Blue Oni, feel wary.

The two, both curious and wary of each other, agreed to meet today and have a chat.

------------

Chapter 101 The Anomaly Observation Group is Established

Because they were both wary of each other, they didn't say anything too intimate.

During the conversation, I learned that Nanaya Saki's family has a history of 1,200 years in Japan and is a long-established Onmyoji family.

However, Nanaya Saki's extraordinary profession is not Onmyoji, which is a very prestigious extraordinary profession in Japan.

In the past, they were considered proper officials, responsible for activities such as praying for blessings and divination.

The most famous ones are Abe no Seimei and a few others.

Besides these, there are also extraordinary paths such as priests, priestesses, exorcists, and ninjas.

Nanaya Saki is a psychic. Although she didn't inherit her family's thousand-year-old path of spiritualism, she did receive a formal education. Such orthodox, formally trained spiritualists usually have no weaknesses, such as the ability to conceal their psychic abilities.

When she wasn't using psychic powers, there was no fluctuation of psychic energy at all. As a result, Zhao Hao hadn't noticed anything unusual before.

Of course, she didn't know that Zhao Hao was a superhuman. It was truly a double blindness.

So much so that the two were quite surprised to meet on the stairs.

Sylvia, on the other hand, is a different type. Her path to transcendence is fixed, akin to superpowers, and she shows no reaction whatsoever when not performing prophetic paintings. In fact, she herself is unaware of the existence of psychic energy.

Nanaya Saki didn't say why she came here, but Zhao Hao guessed it wasn't a good reason, otherwise she wouldn't be so low-key and wouldn't even want the Mysterious Bureau to know.

She hadn't even come into contact with any local superhumans, as if she were someone who was determined to hide her identity.

Zhao Hao also briefly introduced himself, explaining that he was mainly an external partner of the Mysterious Bureau, essentially a temporary worker.

One was unfamiliar with the place, and the other was new to the inner world, yet they managed to get along quite well.

After a conversation, the two got to know each other anew. The best way to bridge the gap between them was to get them to share secrets.

Later, the students in the Literature Department of the Academy discovered that Shichiya Saki, who was usually quiet and not close to anyone, seemed to be getting closer to Zhao Hao.

However, a blonde girl named Sylvia from the art and painting department also frequently came to see Zhao Hao, and she was much more enthusiastic than Nanaya Saki.

Although Sylvia was quite frightened by this incident, she swept away her past depression and gloom, and became sunny again. Even her makeup started to look normal and beautiful.

It turns out that what I saw was just a vision of the future, and it might even have been misleading. Until something happens, everything is still unknown.

It turns out I'm not a special oddball; there are others who are just as special as me. I'm not alone.

Although she accepted the job from the Bureau of Mysteries, she only went to the branch once a week when there were no urgent missions. Under some tentative guidance, she would draw prophetic pictures in an effort to master this ability as soon as possible.

At the same time, they are also developing and training in psychic abilities. As extraordinary individuals, they must at least master psychic abilities and not always be controlled by them.

……

During his free time, Zhao Hao exchanged some items in the Mysterious Bureau's warehouse.

The Mysterious Bureau really does have some good stuff!

Their warehouse is dozens of meters underground, and it is said that the entire area is larger than a football field, requiring an electric cart to travel around.

This place is surrounded by a large number of mystical or psionic machines. The psionic energy exhibits a sluggish characteristic to prevent anything from becoming abnormal and to prevent intrusion.

Zhao Hao was even pulled in to set up a barrier!

With his current abilities, setting up a long-term, sustainable barrier would be extremely difficult for Zhao Hao. However, since the Mysterious Bureau was willing to provide materials for him to practice on, why wouldn't he take the plunge?

Zhao Hao even kept some useful materials for himself, and finally stumbled and set up an early warning barrier that could surround the entire warehouse.

That's right, it has virtually no defensive capabilities, but it can react to objects and psionic energy that enter it.

As a result, Zhao Hao made significant progress in his barrier techniques and even earned one hundred merit points.

The Mysterious Bureau's warehouse contains many extraordinary items, materials, and various documents.

For example, some common psionic training methods on the market, some key secrets to the path of the extraordinary, and some methods of cultivating minor spells, etc.

There are also many psionic metals, herbs, and extraordinary items.

Zhao Hao felt like he was exchanging equipment with a quartermaster on the battlefield.

However, after much deliberation, he finally opted for the one he needed most urgently…

He doesn't actually need the equipment, but he already has quite a lot of it. If he were to show it all, he'd be quite wealthy, if not from head to toe.

The equipment displayed by the Mysterious Bureau, especially the extraordinary equipment they showcased, was of average quality. Zhao Hao had even seen similar items at the Liberty City Extraordinary Market.

As for the other materials, Zhao Hao doesn't need them at the moment.

As for spells and the like, I'm already trying to learn too much at once. Barrier spells, enlightenment spells, martial arts, and chaos magic are enough to keep me busy for a long time.

So, in the end, he exchanged some psionic beads!

This thing is a small, crystal-clear bead about the size of a marble, containing a lot of natural spiritual energy.

These psionic energies are typically sealed away using specific methods in areas with abundant psionic energy under specific circumstances.

This item is highly sought after in the underworld; it can be used to create many extraordinary items, brew magical potions, drive psionic machines, and set up magic arrays.

Most importantly, those with extraordinary abilities can absorb the natural spiritual energy within and transform it into their own, thus increasing their spiritual energy. This is much faster than ordinary methods of self-cultivation.

It's essentially a drug-fueled escapade in the underworld.

However, this thing isn't cheap; it costs two hundred merit points per piece.

Zhao Hao only managed to exchange for five. Five would last him a long time, significantly increasing his total spiritual energy and even accelerating his leveling up.

Zhao Hao began absorbing spiritual energy beads every night before entering his dreams. One bead could last him about two and a half weeks. His spiritual energy growth rate started to accelerate!

September 23rd was a Saturday, and Zhao Hao and his friends had a small gathering.

Those who attended the gathering included Zhao Hao, Winston, Sylvia, and Nanayasaki. It was a small get-together among classmates.

During the time, everyone shared their recent feelings, after all, they had all experienced a terrible supernatural event together, and Sylvia and Winston were even hired by the Bureau of Mysteries.

Winston hasn't been spending much time at school lately. He rushes to the Bureau of Mysteries branch after finishing his required classes, where he assists the Bureau's researchers in their research on psionic semiconductors and similar technologies.

Winston said, "Researchers at the Bureau of Mysteries want to further explore the field of psionic semiconductors in psionic machinery, just like the current electronics industry. At present, we can only say that the prospects are good, but it will take a long time to see results."

Sylvia asked him, "And what about psionic development? What plan have they developed for you?"

Winston shrugged. "They've come up with at least twenty plans, but so far the results have been limited. It seems they're right; it's very difficult to mass-produce superhumans. But I think I'm starting to get a feel for it lately. I get really into it whenever I'm working with electronics. I think I should try to awaken my psionic abilities myself."
