As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

However, a strange change occurred among humans. Many people underwent a genetic mutation overnight, their physical forms changed drastically, and they gained extraordinary powers.

Despite their weakness, quite a few people foolishly uploaded videos of themselves using their abilities, enjoying half an hour of praise and envy before the videos were deleted and the video creators disappeared, seemingly having been investigated.

Among them were those that spat water, those that breathed fire, and those that could break large stones on their chests—not actually breaking them, but rather smashing real stones against their own chests, and both remained unharmed, their bodies incredibly tough…

However, some people take advantage of the chaos to attract attention by creating fake videos and pretending to be extraordinary.

In short, everything was a mess.

The public lacks a sense of security and cannot trust those in power, so they can only protect themselves through their own means.

As the saying goes, troubled times breed heroes, so a large number of gangs emerged like weeds, adding another nuisance to the already chaotic situation.

While deities may seem ethereal and intangible, the damage caused by violent gangs is very real, with incidents of infighting and extortion occurring frequently.

At the critical moment, it was the established gangs who followed the rules and helped the police suppress those troublesome groups. Unfortunately, they were also the ones being targeted, and the new gangs planned to bring about a new era.

I heard that the situation in Hokkaido has been completely paralyzed, meaning the government is in disarray and there is a severe shortage of manpower. Later, several police officers were beaten to death while mediating disputes. The local authorities have completely given up and cut off the telephone lines themselves. As long as no emergency calls are received, no incidents will occur.

Other cities aren't much better off, mainly because most of their resources have been diverted by the human alliance. They claim they plan to urgently train a group of elites to prevent the humans from blindly following the elephant's movements, grabbing its head and hitting its rear end, and beating it indiscriminately.

Chiba City, Wakaba Ward.

Jing Yongshou, in his thirties or forties, had a round, somewhat chubby face. Dressed in a police uniform, he led ten officers as they awaited the arrival of the commissioner. He belonged to the General Affairs Section and had come specifically to assist in the investigation of a case.

A gang leader's suicide in a locked room.

The matter was originally settled, and the Chiba police, not wanting to cause trouble, kept their distance from matters of the supernatural. Furthermore, given that it was an isolated incident with minimal impact, the police immediately suppressed related news, ensuring no outsiders knew, intending to cover it up.

However, the Human Alliance somehow got wind of this and pressured the local police, who took the matter very seriously and insisted on a thorough investigation, even dispatching a special commissioner.

A moment later, a Toyota Century pulled up here.

The car door opened, and a thin, short old man got out of the back seat. He was about 1.5 meters tall, with hardly any flesh on his body, a sharp jaw, a goatee, and his black kimono was half-open. He wore wooden clogs, revealing his shriveled chest, as if he had just come out of the bathroom.

The old man didn't rush to greet him; instead, he looked around as if observing his surroundings.

Is this person really a commissioner of the Human Union?

Many people, including Jing Yongshou, began to have doubts.

A shrewd and capable-looking man with glasses got out of the driver's seat and quickly walked up to Jing Yongshou.

"Excuse me, are you Captain Jing Yongshou of this special operations team?" he asked first. After confirming, he continued, "I am Fukada Masashi, in charge of logistics for the Mysterious Group, and this is Wushan Benyi, a member of the Mysterious Group. Please take care of me." Fukada Masashi spread out his hands to introduce the short old man next to him.

Wushan Benyi, a member of the mysterious group, was assigned by the Human Alliance to each be responsible for a specific area.

Although Japan is small, with only forty-three prefectures, the Mystic Group also has a small number of members, only sixty-seven, not counting the two girls who ran away after joining. Apart from the Extraordinary Ones selected to belong to the Human Union branch, on average, there isn't even one Extraordinary One guarding each prefecture.

Wushan Benyi was assigned to Chiba Prefecture, but these people haven't been released yet. If it weren't for the emergency notice, he would still be in Tokyo.

Jing Yongshou then realized that this was indeed the commissioner. His superior had told him to be respectful to the members of the mysterious group when he arrived, so he immediately stepped forward to explain the situation.

After hearing what had happened, Wushan Benyi frowned and glanced at the ten guards behind Jing Yongshou. "Are you the action team?"

He wasn't tall, but his gaze seemed to look down on people, making them very uncomfortable. There was an indescribable irritation on his old face.

"Sending ten people is already the limit; we're short-handed right now." Jing Yongshou had no way to explain his predicament. He came from the Public Security General Affairs Section, which was responsible for investigating various social movements to prevent the resurgence of the left wing. Logically, he shouldn't have gotten involved in this case, but some people suspected that it might be the work of a cult, and suddenly they were associated with it.

But the incident was bizarre, and no one could explain it clearly. The special operations team was, in essence, a pawn, sent by their superiors to their deaths. If he survived, he would return and report the detailed account of his contact with the mysterious group members and the cause of the incident.

"I mean there are too many people!" the old man from Wushan said coldly. Faced with such a strange event, numbers were useless and would only become a hindrance.

He had seen those few insane people in the mental hospital, and they were definitely not the work of gods.

He stared intently at Jing Yongshou, his eyes deep-set, his pupils seemingly wriggling like worms, but Jing Yongshou seemed oblivious to this.

The old man from Wushan nodded slightly: "You're alright, not mentally sensitive."

Then, he found two more people, told the rest to retreat, and then waved for Fukada Itsuki to take out equipment from the back of the car.

Upon entering the villa, it was found to be sealed off. The gang leader had inexplicably disappeared from his own bedroom, leaving only bloodstains and tangled hair—a more bizarre case than a locked-room murder.

Standing at the bedroom door, he didn't rush in. First, he took out a bowl of water and placed it on the ground. Then, he squatted down, picked a white worm out of his mouth, put it in the bowl, and let it swim around three times. He chanted incantations and performed a spell.

Within three seconds, the clear water in the bowl quickly turned black, as if a bottle of ink had been poured in. The white worm, completely black, rolled over, its belly exposed, already dead.

"It really is a demon!" The old man from Wushan turned pale, cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and he stood up, turned around, and left.

What bad luck! How did he have to run into this kind of thing? Luckily, the impact wasn't widespread, and he wasn't deeply involved. It's not too late to extricate himself now.

"This..." The old man from Wushan was thin and short, but he was walking very fast in his wooden clogs, which immediately stunned Jing Yongshou.

He quickly caught up: "Senior Wushan, do you have any clues?"

"I've got it, I'll talk to your superiors later. Hurry back, this house can't be inhabited for a hundred years." The old man from Wushan waved to Jing Yongshou without turning his head, as if avoiding a snake or scorpion.

He didn't know the details, otherwise he would have risked his life. If he had to submit a report, he would say that the person who was taken away was just unlucky and had nothing to do with him.

With his mind made up, the old man from Wushan decided to first visit someone on the commercial street.

But at that moment, a person suddenly appeared at the end of the road on the left. The person moved swiftly, covering more than ten meters in a single step, appearing here like a ghost.

This person had a handsome face, wore a heart-shaped red stone on his forehead, exuding an air of nobility, and held a strangely shaped black short sword in his hand.

"I was passing by when I sensed some magical energy fluctuations, so I came to take a look."

"Sir, I am from the Human Alliance, from the Mystic Group..." The old man from Wushan first put on a layer of armor for himself. This person was unfathomable, so he could only use his reputation as a pretext.

"So it's the lineage of witchcraft and sorcery. It's amazing that such a rare and obscure tradition hasn't been lost and still has magic. It's a pity you didn't raise a Gu God; you're not a psychic yet," the great-grandson laughed. "Perfect for using as a substitute."

The old man from Wushan's expression changed drastically. He opened his mouth and spat out a billowing black smoke, which condensed and did not dissipate. It was composed entirely of tiny insects, and his already emaciated body became even more shriveled.

But the great-grandson, wielding the Kusanagi sword, was impervious to all evil. He cleaved through the black smoke, took a step, and appeared before the old man of Wushan, directly plunging the divine sword into his chest.

The old man from Wushan rolled his eyes back, his fate unknown.

Then, the great-grandson used his magical power to transfer the mark in his body to the old man of Wushan with the help of the divine sword. The mark of Yi Xiaojiao was difficult to erase, making him restless. Although he could destroy the mark directly with the divine sword, he felt that his status was noble and there was no need for him to kill himself. However, mortals could not withstand the power of the Kusanagi Sword and could not transfer the mark.

Now a suitable medium has been found.

But the others realized what was happening and started firing their guns.

With a wave of his hand, the great-grandson created a shockwave that instantly overturned the dozen or so people.

"Human alliance? Use you as a sacrifice for the sword!" The great-grandson's face was cold as he drew the Kusanagi Sword, preparing to attack. But he quickly sensed something, his expression changed slightly, and he cursed in a low voice, "They've been chasing us for a whole day, they really won't let go!"

He dared not delay, and quickly left, disappearing from the area in an instant.

A few seconds later, two figures appeared. Upon seeing the situation, Yi Xiaojiao and Luo Bu quickly understood what had happened.

Yi Xiaojiao looked at the old man from Wushan who had fallen to the ground and was not able to get up. There was a mark on his body. He had chased him for thousands of miles, but finally lost him.

The Kusanagi Sword is indeed extraordinary.

Rom bent down to examine him, then looked up at Kozuno and said, "He's still alive, but he's not far from death."

"Which way did the assailant go?" Rom asked.

But no one answered. Jing Yongshou reacted quickly, realizing that the two were not enemies, and immediately pointed out the direction his great-grandson had left in.

Yi Xiaojiao raised his hand and used his magic to protect Wushan Benyi's heart meridian, and then disappeared with Rom.

The police officers were confused about what had happened. First, a person who was supposed to assassinate the members of the mysterious group appeared out of nowhere and sent them flying with a wave of his hand. Then, two more people suddenly appeared and disappeared.

Is this a fantasy drama?

In a quiet, deserted corner of the villa, hidden among the greenery, Youlia emerged, her eyes lifeless as she stared in that direction.

May all gods swiftly come to my aid; if I fail to obey, I will be punished in Fengdu: Chapter 104: Perhaps they are just passing by.

As the great-grandson walked down the street, his appearance and demeanor made him seem like an oddity among ordinary people, but most people ignored him.

His arrival in Chiba was not a rash decision, but a deliberate act.

I heard the priest of Shimizu mention this city before he died, which is suspected to be related to divine blood.

“The Ise Shrine Maiden and divine blood, huh…” His face was cold as he scanned his surroundings. Many passersby suddenly felt a chill in the sweltering heat, and the temperature seemed to drop by more than ten degrees in an instant. They subconsciously shrank their necks.

Meanwhile, the great-grandson, carrying the Kusanagi sword, disappeared into the crowd.

……

After hearing Yuria finish recounting what had happened, the son saw that Yuria had finished speaking.

Yuria curled the phone up with her tentacles and said in a deathly tone, "Some bad people have come to this city."

She frowned slightly. "How's your strength?"

“Very strong. His senses are very sharp, probably only slightly weaker than yours,” Yuria said truthfully. The moment she sensed Rom’s arrival, her great-grandson knew that someone was chasing after them.

Seeing Zi sigh softly, she realized that spiritual masters are primarily spiritual cultivators with extremely keen spiritual perception, and she was currently in a critical period, still transforming her mental power.

Is there any way to find him?

Yuria's words were devoid of any emotion: "There is a way, but it might affect many people." As long as someone knows her real name, if she utters that name in that world, that person will surely suffer a terrible fate.

But the consequences are also very serious.

After that gang leader was taken away, he left traces in the human world. If one's mind is sensitive enough and can empathize with those strange creatures, one can detect those traces.

If a mortal is like this, let alone an extraordinary person. Moreover, that person is not an ordinary extraordinary person; he is not without the power to resist. At the very least, he can struggle a few more times, which will lead to an irreversible outcome.

Seeing that Zi had given up on the idea after hearing this, he said, "Never mind then. How have you been lately?"

"Every time I fall asleep and enter another world, I feel more and more energetic, as if my soul is about to leave my body." She does have a physical body, but her spirit is so strong that it covers her physical body, causing the psychic to see her spiritual body first.

But now, she felt her body loosening, and she herself was slowly getting stronger over time.

“A voice was calling to me from the depths of my being. It seemed to be telling me that I could ascend to heaven and gain eternal life after leaving my physical body.”

Seeing Zi sigh, she said, "You must stay rational." Actually, she felt the same way.

However, unlike Yuria, her spiritual power was so strong that it was incompatible with her physical body, making it difficult for her weak body to restrain her soul.

As his mental power increased, the discomfort gradually intensified.

She had a premonition that this strange phenomenon would reach its peak at Sequence 7, but at that time it would no longer be the body nourishing the spirit, but rather the mind would draw life energy in turn. When it reached its extreme, it would be able to abandon the depleted body and officially advance to Sequence 6.

“I am very rational now, very clear-headed, and I know what I am doing and thinking. I can capture my every thought and idea. I am no longer unable to examine myself as I used to be; my mind is as still as water…”

Yuria murmured, "No one can feel what she has experienced anymore, that stagnant stillness, devoid of love or hate, where even thought itself does not exist."

If her sanity hadn't been forcibly fixed, she wouldn't be able to communicate with Yotsuya Miko right now; instead, she would have sunk into that primordial secret place.

"Is this what you realized in another world?"
