Chapter 64 - Transcendence

“The Special Affairs Bureau can’t return her to normal life for now.”

When this was brought up, Yuan Zhixia’s expression also became serious.

“On one hand, her body has completely turned into a Spider Monster, and the spider’s nervous system is distributed throughout the body, making it very difficult to transfer the brain intact to an artificial body.

On the other hand, her ‘existence’ has been eaten away by a counter-memetic spider, so even if she is returned to her family, her family members would suffer mental pain due to cognitive dissonance.

There isn’t a better solution for the moment; all we can do is let her live within the Special Affairs Bureau.”

Li Cheng caught the keyword, “For now?”

“Right.”

Yuan Zhixia nodded: “Currently, the player group in the killing field is distributed in a pyramid shape, with over 70% of players at Lv1-Lv15, 19% at Lv15-Lv20, 8% at Lv20-Lv29,

and worldwide, there are only about one thousand five hundred people above Lv30, with each being the core strength of their respective guild.

As for the max level of Lv40, it’s more or less equivalent to gods in common beliefs, reviving the dead and whitening bones is quite ordinary.

Cases like Yang Ling, who has suffered an accident and had to leave normal life, are numerous.

Many are protected by the Special Affairs Bureau, waiting for the top masters of the Bureau to come out of the killing field and solve these people’s issues with relatively minor effort.”

Li Cheng asked, “From what you’re saying, does it mean that the high-level specialists of the Special Affairs Bureau don’t often stay in reality?”

Yuan Zhixia casually said: “Right, the very existence of a top-tier Transcendent is like a massive abnormal element reactor, easily attracting rifts and triggering anomalies in the real world.

Moreover, for them, exploring the killing field, seeking out Hidden Rooms, and even

[Special Effect: Customer service call.

[Note: Standard issue equipment from the Special Affairs Bureau.

If found, please return it to the nearest Special Affairs Bureau office as soon as possible for a substantial reward]

No, what’s with these densely packed notes?

Why are they editable?

Could it be that this is equipment made by the Special Affairs Bureau itself?

And that last line, “If found, please return to the nearest Special Affairs Bureau office location as soon as possible, a generous reward awaits,” that’s definitely bait for a trap, isn’t it?

When you return the equipment, a squad of fully-armed bruisers will surely pop out from behind the door, right?

Even though Li Cheng had gotten used to the occasional wicked sense of humor in the killing field, he couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his eye, put away the wired Bluetooth headset, and genuinely nodded to Yuan Zhixia, “Thanks.”

“One thing at a time.

Alright, now that we’ve discussed official business, we can talk about our personal matters.”

Yuan Zhixia placed the teacup on the desk, rolled up her sleeves and smiled at Li Cheng: “Humph, calling yourself the great ruler back in the Shadow Realm, showing off, huh?

Come on, let’s fight.

It’s a good opportunity for me to practice the Mixed Martial Arts taught by the Special Affairs Bureau.”

“Ah?” Li Cheng hesitated and said, “Can we not fight?

Our school uniforms are really expensive.

I still need to wear it for the college entrance exams.”

“Uh?

Why do you need to wear the school uniform for the college entrance exams?”

“Because during the entrance exam period, if you run around the city wearing a school uniform and say you’re a student taking the exams, you can get free rides from traffic police cars.

I’ve tried it in my past life, it’s true.

The only regret is that I didn’t try to see if I could fly for free at the airport.

Sigh, speaking of which reminds me of a friend who was an American athlete and one who was a Russian chef; they both died in plane crashes.

Calculating the time, they should be around 4 and 1 years old now.”

Priogozin the big Kobe, Priogozin the second, right?

Yuan Zhixia held back the urge to tease and threw a punch directly, unleashing a series of punches like a storm, showcasing Yong Chun, Baji Fist, Long Fist, and Tai Chi moves properly executed.

If it had been a day earlier, Li Cheng would have had to rely on his agility attribute, which is above that of an ordinary person, to dodge.

But now, he casually activated the Multi-threaded Brain Domain Method, and several working memories, just like multi-threading in a CPU, worked at the same time to handle the situation in front of him, blocking all the not-too-fast punches.

Seeing this, Yuan Zhixia stepped into a Tai Chi movement, circled behind Li Cheng, tiptoed slightly, twisted her body suddenly, and kicked high towards his shoulder.

Snap.

Li Cheng didn’t even use strength beyond that of an ordinary person and easily grabbed the girl’s small leg covered in white cotton tights.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Zhixia slapped the desk next to her, her petite body suddenly straightened in mid-air, clamping Li Cheng’s head between her legs while bending backward, trying to use her body weight, gravitational potential energy, and centrifugal force to fling Li Cheng away.

This move could be counted as one of the Mixed Martial Arts techniques, which could act as a triangle choke from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, choking the opponent’s neck to cause oxygen deprivation and unconsciousness to the head.

Or like now, throw the opponent and smash them on the ground, dragging them into ground techniques that relatively pay less attention to advantages in size and strength.

However…

Li Cheng stood still, unfazed.

The difference in weight between them was too apparent; Yuan Zhixia truly couldn’t throw him…

The scene became awkward for a moment, with her maintaining the backward-bending pose, “Buddy, can you play along a bit?”

“Damn,” Li Cheng realized, “Ignore this!”

He shouted loudly, leaped, and spun in the air with the girl.

It was probably like this—

Li Cheng landed on his feet, and Yuan Zhixia also realized the gap in their physical endurance.

She silently climbed down from his shoulder, quietly packed her backpack and water bottle, lowered her head, and quickly ran out of the classroom.

Coming down to the bottom of the teaching building, she leaned against the wall and retched.

The recent backflip in the air was too intense, she almost vomited the overnight meal…

“A worthy opponent makes a daunting match.”

She muttered softly, wiped the corner of her mouth, and headed towards the electric scooter parked in the bike shed.
