A group of people traveled through a strange world, and I was the only one who was not a refugee.

One person spoke, his words full of worry.

Yami Masahiko, a B-level psychic transcendent, knew that the source of the foul air spreading this evening was the Imperial Palace.

He and the other two were not members of the security team, nor did they belong to any official department in Xinjing.

There is only one reason to choose to participate at this time - when the nest is overturned, all the eggs will remain intact, and in a chaotic world, how can one remain immune?

As long as there is human desire, Xinjing is the largest safe zone in the entire Neon. Retreating to another place requires starting all over again, which is equivalent to giving up the efforts of the first half of life.

How many people can be willing to do that?

But when it comes to the "Imperial Palace" which even the officials are very secretive about, they don't want to bring trouble upon themselves.

The other two B-classes looked at Akita Shin at the same time.

"Don't worry, the three of you. If anything happens, it's my responsibility." Akita Makoto said calmly.

Hearing this, the three of them felt relieved.

If it were another B-class security team, no matter how much they believed in it, they would still have doubts, but Akita Shin was different.

Given that one has all the strength, status, and backing, this statement actually seems very conservative.

The journey to the security headquarters was not smooth.

Regularity-level, disaster-level, and catastrophe-level weirdnesses appeared one after another.

The first two levels of weirdness can be quickly resolved by police officers and superhumans with their numerical advantage.

But the disaster level is different. Once it appears, it brings serious damage, and often requires multiple extraordinary people of the same level to minimize the losses.

Yami, Yi Zhengyan and the other two attacked one after another.

Akita really didn't move, not because he was proud of his status, but as a B-level psychic, he could play a greater role.

After the catastrophic monster was resolved by everyone, he released his mental power and began to resolve the foul air emitted by the dead monster.

One head, two heads, three heads...

Seeing that he didn't show any pressure at all, Yami Imahiko couldn't help but be secretly shocked, and the extraordinary people fighting on the ground also looked at him sideways.

It is common sense that only a spiritual master can resolve filth.

It is important to make clear that there are risks in doing this.

Assuming a D-level psychic wants to deal with the filth that comes from a disaster-level monster, multiple D-level psychics will be needed together.

Or you can slow down and solve the problem in many “small parts”.

Otherwise, you will face the consequences of your mental power being polluted.

The same principle applies to those higher up, like Akita Makoto, who can completely resolve all the filth emitted by a catastrophic-level weirdness in half a minute, and the behavior continues.

It feels a bit like trampling on everyone's world views.

"Are spiritualists so powerful?"

A D-level extraordinary person couldn't help but say, why is it that the psychics who went out on missions with him seemed so incompetent?

"That's Master Akita. Can he be like any other spiritualist?"

"If the spiritualists you meet can materialize 50% of their spiritual power, it's considered pretty good."

"That adult is the 100% record holder."

"Although A-level psychics can do it, it is no longer recorded."

“There has never been anyone like him before, and there will probably be no one who can catch up and be on par with him in the future.”

"..."

Faced with everyone's admiration, Akita's expression did not change.

The catastrophic weirdness below seemed to realize that it could not escape the fate of death.

It roared at the top of its lungs: "You...promise...to be conferred...and keep your word..."

The next moment, the black gas that had been gushing out of the body was completely expelled like ice and snow melting.

Confer the title???

All the extraordinary people present were not deaf and looked suspicious.

Akita Shin frowned even more.

Most of the modern neon culture originated in China.

I, you, classical Chinese and the like...all kinds of difficult-to-pronounce words are taught in students' courses.

At the beginning of the Extraordinary Era, as various systems were developed, the Japanese firmly believed that the cultural heritage of the ancients contained knowledge that could save the world, and a wave of learning classical Chinese was set off.

Future generations will be affected to varying degrees.

"御封" is a word that is exclusive to emperors.

Coming from such a strange mouth, how could one not be terrified when thinking about it carefully?

Akita Shin collected his thoughts and ignored the reactions of the other extraordinary people. After making sure that there was nothing strange around him, he quickly flew to the headquarters.

As he was about to get closer, he met Cheng Zhiyuanji who had just finished a battle.

Cheng Zhi and Xi, who were standing next to him, were calling on other extraordinary people to drag the strange corpse on the street to the side.

"Lord Chengzhi." Akita Makoto controlled the flying object to land.

Seeing him, Cheng Zhiyuansi pushed the frame of his glasses with his hands stained with black and red blood, and said, "The situation is a little worse than expected."

This sentence actually made Akita Shinji and others feel relieved.

The word "anticipated" reveals a lot of information.

"The strange things that are constantly rushing towards the Imperial Palace are..." Akita Shin said tentatively.

Cheng Zhiyuansi was not surprised by this. Just now, when dealing with a catastrophic monster, many people had heard the word "imperial decree" or similar words.

But he still looked at Yami and Imahiko, and the three of them tactfully said they would go to other places to help.

Cheng Zhiyuansi took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep breath, and explained: "You should have guessed it."

Akita didn't say anything and just nodded.

Since "imperial decree" is a term used exclusively by emperors, the matter itself must be related to the current emperor.

"The previous emperor didn't have the means that the current little emperor has."

Cheng Zhiyuansi sighed and immediately told him the whole story.

The matter itself is not complicated.

Just as Akita Makoto had guessed a long time ago, there were many terrifying and strange things suppressed in the Imperial Palace, as well as... high-level extraordinary people who were out of control.

Their power is an important source for maintaining the normal operation of Xinjing. Otherwise, relying solely on strange corpses, although it can meet the needs of energy conversion, will involve great risks.

When the quantity accumulates to a certain level and consumption cannot keep up with the supply, if an accident occurs, the entire New Kyoto will be reduced to ruins.

But these are not the point. Cheng Zhiyuanji's next words made Akita Makoto's eyelids jump.

Chapter 195: 193. The Emperor's System, Entering the Imperial Palace

"In the early days of the Extraordinary Era, individuals, tens, hundreds, and thousands... As more and more Extraordinary people appeared, the pressure on the human side was relieved. After a period of time, order was gradually restored."

"The original cabinet's attitude towards the Imperial Palace was the same as in the technological era, which was to just show respect on the surface."

"When Kyoto was first established, the population was not small, so it was not a big problem to support a group of royal family members with pure blood."

"But as this plan was implemented, many strange forces came together, and our ancestors discovered a serious problem."

"Your Excellency the Emperor, who nominally rules a country, can actually merge with this dangerous force and create a brand new system that is different from all the extraordinary people..."

"As you can see, all the high-level weird and out-of-control extraordinary people were transferred to the Imperial Palace, along with all the royal family members, who were confined inside."

After saying that, Cheng Zhiyuansi picked up the cigarette that was about to burn out.

Akita Shin frowned and asked the most crucial question.

"Master Chengzhi, since the Emperor has formed a special system of his own and is very dangerous, why not abolish it?"

"More than 20 years ago, I also asked Master Kujo this question, and the answer I got was that humans at that time were eager to grasp this power."

Cheng Zhiyuansi shook his head and continued:

"It should have been a good thing, but then something changed. You know the weird power... The deeper the fusion, the deeper you fall."

"Come to think of it, how can a mere human body withstand such a powerful and continuous filthy force?"

“So, the first emperor who got this system completely lost control.”

"Just as the story passed down long ago, the owner of the demon sword Muramasa is no longer able to control this dangerous weapon."

"Let's get back to the point. It's not that we didn't think about abolishing the emperor, but once we start trying, that power will show signs of going out of control. We can only change our approach and replace the emperor regularly."

Akita Shin suddenly understood and asked, "Are the royal family members from another world related to the current accident?"

"Well, although the current young emperor is still very young and the two sides are not related by blood, I think his status should be enough."

"Some scholars have proposed trying to weaken the current royal bloodline to see if they can slowly and safely cut off the dangers to the imperial palace."

"Unfortunately, the little emperor was very reluctant and began to resist, causing the sealed filthy energy to spread. However, with the barrier filtering it, we didn't take it too seriously at first."

"Then, I don't know how He made the promise of conferring titles on the monsters and demonic beasts." Cheng Zhiyuansi said helplessly.

After hearing this, Akita felt that the mystery of the "Imperial Palace" had been largely revealed.

He couldn't help but complain in his heart, you all are planning to kill me, how can I not resist?

The most important thing is that the "little emperor" actually wanted to accomplish the feat of turning the tables and becoming the master again under the noses of a group of A-level and S-level bosses, with the help of weirdness and monsters.

Unfortunately, Akita Shin hasn't seen the nightmare-level weirdness yet.

Either the so-called "conferring" is not very attractive to the nightmare level, or there is a backup plan.

After collecting his thoughts, Akita said calmly:

"In that case, Master Chengzhi, I will go to other areas to help and try to drive out all the weirdness in the inner city."

Cheng Zhiyuanji showed a playful smile, put his palm on Akita Zhen's shoulder, and said:

"I have already left the Imperial Palace, and some A-levels have also left. Is it your turn to worry about the safety of the outer city, the outer city, and the inner city?"

"Then... I'll go back and rest?" Akita pretended to be stupid, "After all, I'm in the critical period of promotion to A-level now."

"If you hadn't mentioned this, I would have forgotten about it. You seem to dislike trouble, but you've caused more trouble than anyone else. The Censorship Bureau made quite a fuss. Fortunately, you have to shut up now even if you don't want to."

"Now, go to the Imperial Palace and be a cleaner and clean up all the garbage."

"..."

Akita is really having a headache.

Following "Gas Station", this former boss made another golden quote, which made people wonder what kind of personality he has in private.

Although Akita Makoto had never heard of it, it was not difficult to understand that garbage refers to filth.

However, he was indeed very curious about the Imperial Palace, and now that Cheng Zhiyuansi said so, he no longer refused.

The Imperial Palace is located in the most central area of ​​the inner city. It didn't take Akita Shin much time to reach the edge of the Imperial Palace.

"He who comes is stopped."

An old voice sounded, it should be the old man who drove away everyone approaching the Imperial Palace two or three months ago.

"Lord Chengzhi asked me to come here to clean up the filth." Akita Makoto stated his purpose directly.

"Cheng Zhi?"

The old man who had not shown up was a little confused.

"Let him in."

A familiar voice sounded, it was the head of the Kujo family.

The old man heard this and stopped trying to stop him. He warned, "You are not allowed to fly in the Imperial Palace. Walk on foot."

Akita Makoto naturally wouldn't have any objection to such a small matter.
