After Death, I Became a Superhuman-Chapter 66 – That’s a good thing
When the electronic wizard first discovered that Liu Bin's identification signal had disappeared, everyone in the control room was confused.
All monitoring methods failed to determine what had happened, including the first-person perspective from Liu Bin's implant, which couldn't show the specific situation. It seemed that there was an abnormal and rapid increase in temperature in his surroundings before Liu Bin lost connection.
It wasn't until the subsequent investigation of the scene that two burnt holes were found on the ground, and data from the surrounding environment was collected. Only then did they have a vague idea of what might have happened.
It was that superhuman, who possibly locked onto Liu Bin's location from hundreds of meters in the air and through the wall. Then, justice rained down from the sky, directly melting the surface and killing Liu Bin underground.
Yes, theoretically, Liu Bin should have been physically immune during the period when his phase-changing ability was in effect. Of course, these details were obviously not important anymore. It was well known that these flashy abilities didn't work on the superhuman type of extraordinary being.
The focus now shifted elsewhere.
In the central control room of the Yao Shui branch, there was silence when they reached a conclusion. The dark room was filled with silence.
From outside the sky, through the wall, a soul-piercing attack...
Even if they didn't witness the killing process with their own eyes, they could imagine the scene. Especially when they put themselves in Liu Bin's first-person perspective, they could feel that sense of despair through the screen.
Just like divine punishment.
Yes, it was not an exaggeration to describe it that way. Just like how ancient people believed that those who offended the heavens would be punished by thunder, they were now facing something similar. God turned his anger into a scorching spear and threw it down from the sky. No matter what the person being judged did, it was futile. All they could do was obediently accept death.
Can this still be called an extraordinary being?
Is this what a god looks like?
It was like a living god wearing the cloak of an extraordinary being, walking among humans.
"From the first alarm to the moment the Fireworks Island radar detected the target, it only took half a minute..." someone said with a choked voice, "He makes the world's fastest fighter jets look like baby strollers."
"And there's another question, doesn't this mean that he didn't go after Liu Bin at first? He only took action after several hours and flew straight to Liu Bin's location. Doesn't this mean that he had been monitoring Liu Bin's movements all along?"
"He has a powerful alliance behind him, and maybe he has an extremely large intelligence network. They have their eyes everywhere, and Liu Bin's activities have always been under their surveillance..."
"Is there a possibility, of course, I'm just suggesting this possibility." someone cautiously said, "You should know that in movies, Superman... seems to be able to see things thousands or tens of thousands of kilometers away, right?"
All eyes in the central control room fell on the person who spoke, and their heavy gaze seemed to suffocate him.
The person shrank his neck and spoke even softer, "I'm just... suggesting this possibility..."
"It's impossible, absolutely impossible!" the leader slammed the table.
Seeing through walls was one thing—after all, similar abilities had been heard of in the existing spectrum of extraordinary beings. In recent days, there had even been exposure of extraordinary beings using their X-ray vision to peep into women's bathhouses.
But seeing thousands of miles away?
This damn it wasn't extraordinary, it was supernatural.
Why not just scan the entire globe with divine consciousness?
"He definitely relies on his intelligence network, it's just extremely large and extremely hidden." the leader said firmly.
But he couldn't help but think of the extremely terrifying possibility mentioned by his subordinate just now.
The leader couldn't help but feel a sudden chill down his spine and a coldness in his lower body.
As if there were eyes staring at him from the depths of the abyss.
...
...
Yeonge Town, at night.
"Say your name again?" She Miao walked on the empty streets at night, looking at his teammate who had just arrived this morning on a private plane from Kontu with a somewhat strange expression.
New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.
"Alloy Knight." Wang Hongfei said, "You see, superheroes always have a code name, right? Like Superman, Iron Man, and so on.
I have a motorcycle and a cool suit of armor. So I plan to call myself Alloy Knight, isn't that a good name?"
"Not... good?" She Miao raised an eyebrow.
"Not good? Well, I thought it was a good idea. Maybe I can think of something else..." Wang Hongfei was interrupted, "In the past, I might have been enthusiastic about this. But now, shouldn't we have more important things to do?"
It had been She Miao's third day in Changhebin Town, and he still hadn't seen a trace of the vampire. He guessed that maybe the organization had sent someone over because there was no progress on his side. This made him feel a bit frustrated.
She Miao took a week off from school—considering that his house had caught fire and made the news, the teacher didn't make things difficult for him when he asked for leave.
After their last partnership, the two of them were barely familiar. Of course, they still couldn't remember what each other looked like, but when they saw each other's faces in the activated facial recognition state, they could remember who they had seen.
This was one of the characteristics of this technology. It served as both a recognition barrier and a recognizable mask. When the other person saw this mask, they could remember who they had seen.
But once the recognition barrier was lifted and the mask was turned off, they would become strangers again in the other person's eyes.
But obviously, they hadn't made any progress so far.
"I've been investigating." Wang Hongfei said.
"You... have?"In She Miao's view, the entire day after his teammate arrived, the two of them were basically eating and drinking everywhere... It's not that he had any objections. He had never eaten so well in his life.
"Of course. Haven't you noticed that we've been dining with people from various fields? In fact, I've already gathered quite a bit of information, all rumors, but enough to prove that the news of vampires appearing in this place is likely true.
I now have two leads. Given a few more days, I think I should be able to follow the vine to the melon and find some solid evidence..."
This part seemed to involve a field that General Wang was quite familiar with. How to dine, who to dine with, where to dine, how to ask questions, and how to get people to talk, all required knowledge.
Although he had some experience in society due to family reasons, She Miao was still a student after all, and his experience in this area was incomparable to Wang Hongfei's.
"Is that so?" She Miao listened in surprise, feeling as if he had unlocked a new posture.
"Yes, eating and drinking is the fastest way to gather information." Wang Hongfei spoke confidently, "What else can we do? Go out patrolling the streets every night, hoping to randomly bump into a lucky vampire? No wonder you didn't find any clues before I came.
If you could bump into one, I suggest you better buy a lottery ticket, you might get rich faster than me..."
As he spoke, it seemed as if a cold wind blew by, followed by a dark shadow suddenly descending from the sky, baring its terrifying fangs, and its blood-red pupils fell straight on the two of them.
"Fresh blood!" The man in black showed excitement on his pale face.
The two were stunned, then looked at each other.
Wow?
Was there really such good luck?
