Resurrected Soul!

"Take the knife from my waist!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Lin drew the dagger from Chen Position's waist and slashed open the clothes on his back, but his back was covered by a layer of metal.

Chen Position used the Light Brain to unseal his back, creating a gap in his spine that revealed flesh and blood.

Without saying a word, Yang Lin directly stabbed into the flesh with his knife, cutting open the skin and digging all the way down to the spine!

"Ugh!"

Chen Position gritted his teeth, "Quick!"

Yang Lin cut open the flesh further, and a talisman with a dragon pattern appeared right in front of him!

He yanked the talisman out, asking, "What is this?"

"Just take it... that's fine."

Chen Position gasped, then began to stagger toward the Rubik's Cube.

"I don't know what secrets you have, but you are definitely not an ordinary person. If you are lucky enough to join us... you can use that stone to take my place."

Who are you?

"Nine-Tailed Fox."

"For the cause of containment, for humanity, anything is worth sacrificing, without hesitation."

Before Chen Position could even reach the cube, two tentacles shot out from the cube and pulled him into its mouth!

"Long live the Nine-Tailed Fox!"

The moment the Chen Position was eaten, he detonated the energy unit behind him, causing an explosion at the mouth of the Rubik's Cube!

Boom!

The Rubik's Cube shattered into pieces, large chunks of flesh were flung around, and a small Rubik's Cube was blasted out from within!

The Rubik's Cube spun around, and the pieces of meat on the ground once again reached out to grab the Rubik's Cube!

It needs to heal!

...what to do?

Yang Lin looked at the Dragon Talisman in his hand. As he gripped the Dragon Talisman Dragon Talisman began to get hot, as if some kind of energy was waiting to be released.

Yang Lin realized something, picked up the Dragon Talisman, aimed it at the healing Rubik's Cube, and then tried to release the intense energy!

Bump!!

A pillar of fire shot out from the Dragon Talisman, a move with tremendous recoil that sent it hurtling straight toward the Rubik's Cube!

The Rubik's Cube, which was healing, was blown away by this heavy blow, and the fleshy strands hanging on it were burned away completely!

After a while, the Rubik's Cube remained motionless.

Yang Lin walked over, and it lay there like an ordinary Rubik's Cube.

He kicked the Rubik's Cube, flipped it over, but it still didn't move.

So what exactly is this?

Is it really just a Rubik's Cube?

Yang Lin picked up the Rubik's Cube with a puzzled look, but to his surprise, the Rubik's Cube started to spin on its own. Yang Lin quickly exerted force with his palm and easily crushed the Rubik's Cube.

The Rubik's Cube was broken into pieces scattered all over the ground, but somehow, these pieces floated up and gathered together again.

I can't understand it.

This is the supernatural.

These people are the Nine-Tailed Fox.

"Aren't you going to run? Or wait for the Nine-Tailed Fox to come and get you?"

A familiar voice came from behind. Yang Lin turned around and saw Jiang Chen standing behind him with a shovel on his back.

He walked up to Yang Lin and picked up the Rubik's Cube that had been reassembled on the ground.

"Making such a fuss, I thought it was something serious."

Jiang Chen reached out and started turning the Rubik's Cube, then put it in his pocket after fiddling with it for a while.

"Why aren't you saying anything, Comrade Imperial Guard? Are you staring blankly?"

Click.

Yang Lin pulled a gun from his pocket and held it directly to Jiang Chen's head. "Tell me, who are you?"

Is this gun a model manufactured by Nine-Tailed Fox?

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, "Hey, hey, hey, I'm here to help you!"

What do you mean by pointing a gun at me?

"I'll ask you one last time, who exactly are you?" Yang Lin said.

Jiang Chen was silent for a moment, then rolled up his sleeves, revealing a string of black serial numbers on his arm.

Number 0: Resurrected Soul.

"I am Night Watcher."

"A member of a superpowered organization. If you want to know more, come with me. Otherwise, once the Nine-Tailed Fox's people arrive, you and I will miss our chance."

Upon hearing this, Yang Lin immediately pulled the trigger.

Click!

Jiang Chen instinctively closed his eyes, but no bullets were fired.

Um?

Jiang Chen opened his eyes and saw Yang Lin holding a pistol and turning around.

There were no bullets in that gun at all.

"Just kidding, are you surprised?"

"..."

"Hehehe, thank you."

Yang Lin tucked the gun into his waistband; his fingerprints were still on the gun.

"Let's go talk about the Night Watcher you mentioned, and the meaning of your number."

Night falls in an underground bar in North Ridge City.

Jiang Chen led Yang Lin to a private room. "Let's get this straight: once you've experienced a containment incident, you've already been labeled by the Nine-Tailed Fox."

"The Nine-Tailed Fox will either erase your memory or recruit you, but most of those recruited end up as D-Class Personnel."

"And D-Class Personnel are the victims. D-Class Personnel are usually selected from death row inmates in various countries."

"Now that you have that thing, and you've been through this incident and are the only survivor, they'll find you sooner or later."

"You can imagine what will happen if they find you. In short, you and I are in the same boat now."

"Because this is the Nine-Tailed Fox's target."

As Jiang Chen spoke, he took out the Rubik's Cube, and the other thing he mentioned was the Dragon Talisman in Yang Lin's hand.

"This is the Containment Object, the target of the Nine-Tailed Fox. We have it in our hands now, and they've lost several investigators, so they certainly won't let this go."

"It's impossible for you to stay out of this now; the only way is to cooperate with me."

Yang Lin pondered, unsure whether Jiang Chen's words were true or false, but one thing was certain.

If Yang Lin escapes the scene with that item from the Chen Position, things will become troublesome and complicated.

Yang Lin had thought of this before, but he still accepted Jiang Chen's invitation because there were some things he needed to figure out.

Exploring this crazy world is bound to be fraught with danger.

Meng Qing had told him this long ago, and Yang Lin was already aware of it.

"I only care about what I want to know, and I don't care about anything else."

"So what does that string of numbers you have mean?"

Jiang Chen rolled up his sleeves. "You can simply think of it as a number for superpowered individuals."

"I don't understand. Since you have extraordinary abilities, why would you willingly be imprisoned for three years?" Yang Lin asked.

Jiang Chen shifted into a more comfortable position and lay back. "Isn't it obvious? I'm hiding from the Nine-Tailed Fox."

"If I were to reveal my abilities carelessly, the Nine-Tailed Fox's people would relentlessly pursue me. Compared to ordinary prisons, the Nine-Tailed Fox's prisons are like life imprisonment."

"At least until I'm capable of going head-to-head with them, I don't want to expose my abilities to anyone."

"So now, you're just swaggering around telling me you're a superhuman. Aren't you afraid the Nine-Tailed Fox will catch you?" Yang Lin asked.

Jiang Chen sneered, "The past is the past, the present is the present."

"Now all the superpowered people in the world have united to prepare to defeat the Nine-Tailed Fox. In other words, the Nine-Tailed Fox is doomed."
