Chapter 214 A Gathering of Wise Men
"It is the light of the heavens!"
"Yes, she's the strongest newcomer who's been on the cover of Hero Monthly. It's said that she's only been in the second tier for half a year and is about to be promoted to the first tier. Plus, she's a popular female singer under the Art Academy."
"Dude, how do you know so many details?"
"I am the host of the Sky Light Super Topic".
Hearing the passersby discussing the black-clad Supergirl stirred up a huge wave of emotions in Chen Feng's heart.
Is a hero capable of compressing a city-sized monster into a ball using telekinesis only a second-tier hero?
What kind of monsters are the first-tier above the second-tier, and the S-tier above the first-tier?
Just as Chen Feng was pondering.
The woman with the colored hair looked around at the drastically changed environment and asked in surprise, "You just used Sianwistan?"
Chen Feng, of course, wouldn't tell the truth: "Yes."
The woman with the colorful hair leaned closer and gently stroked Chen Feng's arm: "You didn't turn into a pile of flesh? Are you a superhuman? Did you get a power-enhancing tattoo on your butt? Or did you have some kind of surgery?"
Chen Feng: "No, it's from exercising."
The woman with the colorful hair understood: "You've had a biotechnology compound injected into your hair?"
Chen Feng waved his hand: "No, it's all natural, I've never even drunk protein powder."
The woman with the colored hair scoffed, "Do you think I'm stupid? No matter how much you train, you can't withstand S.A.S ...
Chen Feng convinced the woman with just one sentence: "That's because you're training the wrong way. I think exercising seven days a week is bad for your heart if you overdo it, so I usually exercise seven days a week."
The woman with the colorful hair pursed her lips: "She really does work out."
Just then, a sonic boom suddenly rang out in the air.
The next second, the Light of the Sky, which was originally several streets away, appeared in front of the two of them: "Hello, I am the Light of the Sky from the Starry Sky Agency."
Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman standing straight in front of me.
Chen Feng waved his little hand: "Hey, hello, I'm Chen Buyin, and I'm currently a homeless person."
The Light of the Sky asked, "I just saw you rescue this criminal from several streets away. Since you're so capable and unemployed, why don't you come work at my firm?"
Chen Feng didn't answer, but looked at the woman with colorful hair: "What did you do wrong?"
The Light of the Sky adjusted the detection glasses on his right: "Melissa, a purple-level criminal, once helped an old lady cross the street and volunteered at a nursing home multiple times."
Wait a minute.
Chen Feng interrupted, "Is it illegal to help an old lady cross the street?"
"What? Of course not."
With a flick of his right index finger, Azure Light lifted Melissa to the air. "Tell me, you damned hacker, what exactly did you do to my machine?"
Melissa said sarcastically, "Wow, big star, your detector is broken, what does that have to do with me? Besides, my eyes are connected to the internet. If you don't want to be on tomorrow's front page and ruin Starry Sky Agency's reputation, you'd better watch out."
"Also, don't try to poach my guy. This handsome guy has already decided to join us, right?"
Seeing Melissa blowing him a kiss and the celestial light floating in the air, reaching out to invite him, Chen Feng couldn't possibly not understand what was going on.
If the friendliness system were working, he would now have two options.
Follow the light of the sky, and you'll be on the hero's path, conquering Supergirl.
Following Melissa's path leads to the villainous route: seducing the female hacker.
"I actually found myself playing a gala game here, something that Cihang City lacks."
Just like when entering the mythical Three Kingdoms, Chen Feng can choose a faction.
Before entering the world of the universe's overlord, Chen Feng had adjusted the avatar system and the interdimensional travel system, asking them to help him find a location where he could quickly understand the universe.
Both the female superhero's corporate route and the female hacker's infiltration of the company network are indeed quite good.
As for who to choose.
A hero who saves even civilians, and a villain who wants to kill him on sight.
It doesn't seem difficult to choose.
But Chen Feng had a dark idea.
This world is so fierce. Now that he's joined the Hero Agency, with his building-exploding level of strength, it'll be difficult for him to climb to the top and obtain any intelligence.
Conversely, if you join the villains and infiltrate their ranks, you can gain access to their strongholds. Then, in the next playthrough, you can join the Hero Agency, betray your villainous teammates, and earn merit.
With that thought in mind, Chen Feng no longer hesitated: "Yes, I've already found a job."
"All right."
The Light of the Sky looked regretful, flew to Chen Feng, and stared at him carefully. "Are you an immortal?"
Chen Feng shook his head.
In the world of Cihang or Chusheng, he would certainly be an immortal, but this world has no cultivation, and his "exploding building physique" is purely a physical enhancement, so living to a hundred years old is about right.
Chen Feng asked curiously, "Why do you ask that?"
The Light of the Sky said, "You look like someone I know, but the age doesn't match."
Melissa continued sarcastically, "Please, ma'am, this kind of old-fashioned way of picking up girls hasn't been used since the last century."
The Light of the Sky glanced at Melissa, said nothing, and then left with a sonic boom.
With a bang, the enormous impact of takeoff sent Melissa tumbling. Clearly, in retaliation against Melissa, the Light of the Sky deliberately did not use its bio-force field.
"That bitch!" Melissa cursed as she patted Chen Feng on the shoulder. "Not bad, you have good taste. As a reward, I might consider going on a date with you tonight."
Chen Feng teased, "I gave up the opportunity to work with superheroes for you, just for a date?"
"Don't push your luck." Melissa nudged Chen Feng. "I'm not planning to sleep with someone just to recruit a follower, but if you're skilled or have some other strengths, I might consider it."
Chen Feng shrugged: "We still need to investigate? I feel like I'm losing out big time."
"Not bad at all." Melissa said as she led Chen Feng ahead, "When I hacked into her cybernetic body just now, I found some photos. Do you know why she's called the Light of the Sky?"
"have no idea."
"If you strip her clothes off, you'll see that, apart from her head being normal, her skin below her neck is as transparent as the starry sky. There are no blood vessels or internal organs inside, only a compressed sun."
So, in the parlance of cultivation, is the Light of the Sky a star that has come to life?
Chen Feng couldn't help but exclaim: Superpowers are truly amazing.
Melissa threatened Chen Feng, "Just think about it, what if the star inside her explodes while you're exercising?"
That's definitely stylish.
Chen Feng continued to probe, "What crimes did you commit? Did you become a Purple-level criminal?"
Melissa casually said, "It was just hacking a few computers. Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. Purple-level criminals are just small-time thugs who have killed thousands of people. There's nothing to say about them."
I rely on.
Does killing thousands of people in this world make someone just a petty thug?
At that moment, Melissa stopped in front of a sports car: "Come on, I'll take you to the gang."
Chen Feng thought to himself, "How many meters have we been from the street where we met? Why did you park the car so far away..."
But he quickly realized, "This isn't your car, is it?"
"It's mine now."
Melissa's eyes flashed, and the car door immediately sprang open.
The security system was breached in just one second?
Recalling how Melissa paralyzed S.A.W.S.S. in seconds, Chen Feng keenly realized that this woman, who was chosen by the system, was not as weak as he had imagined.
The two sat on the leather sofa cushions, started the engine, and the entire sports car floated up.
Then the radio started ringing:
Good morning, District 13!
That familiar tune, that passionate music.
Chen Feng immediately knew that this was a dead man's lottery, an inevitable part of the cyberpunk city experience.
Simply put, it's like a lottery, except instead of buying winning numbers, you're buying the number of people who died in the city yesterday.
The radio host excitedly announced, "Yesterday's dead man's lottery only yielded a result of 1.27 million. I don't think anyone expected such a low number. It's all because the S-class hero Thunder Zi-O happened to be passing by and killed all the monsters causing trouble."
How many?
More than a million people can die in one district a day? And that's not enough?
Even if this universe is 42 times the size of Earth, that's still too exaggerated. Are the people in District 13 like those in Cihang City, refreshed on a timer?
Chen Feng asked instinctively, "Who is this Thunder Zi-O?"
Melissa looked at Chen Feng in surprise: "Don't you read Hero Monthly? There's a copy in this car, you can use it to pass the time on the way."
Chen Feng took the monthly magazine, glanced at the list of S-class heroes, and couldn't help but gasp: "S2 One-Punch Man, S3 Thunder Zi-O, S4 the infamous A, S5 White Night Queen, S7 Gay Superman... S13 Confident Red Giant, just hearing the names feels really off."
What a gathering of wise men!
