Yi Yun raised an eyebrow, chuckled, and then turned his head away.

Zhao Ping and Zhao Lei naturally witnessed this scene.

"Brother Feng, he's challenging your authority!"

Ling Mengxue: "..."

"Team leader, is this really going to work? There's been a huge uproar outside, the Ninth Bureau is definitely watching us."

Inside a simple office, several "staff members" were sitting around a round table discussing something.

"Why not? Did we make false claims? If their bodies can't handle it, what does that have to do with us? If you want power, you always have to pay a price."

The department head, sitting in the middle of the room, shook his head and sneered.

How could they not know what young people are thinking in this era?

It's simply about seeking a power that transcends the mundane.

Want something for nothing without putting in hard work?

Where in the world can you find such a wonderful thing?

However, if this job goes through, they can earn at least 100 million China yuan. The company is practically a wealth-harvesting machine.

With a good reputation, making hundreds of millions is not a problem.

If they are discovered by the Special Affairs Bureau, they can simply leave. There are only a few core members, and they can make a clean getaway with the money they've amassed. There's no need to worry too much.

Besides, some of those participating in the superpower experiments are our own people. If any special situation occurs, they can report it in time and escape in advance.

"Is everyone here? We'll only accept the top 1,000 bidders for now, twenty labs, one person per group, dismissed! Report any problems later!" Bolo made the decision.

"No problem!"

Everyone: "..."

At this moment, Ling Mengxue and the other two had already entered the company and were waiting for instructions.

But this tuition is seriously expensive! Ling Mengxue managed to control the number of spots until the very end, and it still cost 50,000 yuan. Why doesn't she just snatch them away?

I want to report this!!

But given the current situation, this is the only option for now.

Since it's a harmful company, the inability to awaken superpowers will definitely provoke public outrage.

Let's wait and see.

Ling Mengxue shook her head; this was indeed troublesome.

It's the weekend now. If this hadn't happened, she'd probably still be in bed, or maybe she'd already been up and sitting in the living room watching Yosuga no Sora or Black Bullet.

These anime are all quite heartwarming, it's a pity she hasn't finished watching them yet...

Groups of 100 people each have to queue in pairs to get in, which takes even more time.

Fortunately, meals are included, which saves some money.

Chapter 130 Mind-Confounding Charm

Since their numbers were mostly consecutive, Ling Mengxue and the others were all in the same group.

Now, we have to wait in line again.

However, Ling Mengxue calmed down, opened her Divine Sense, and began to observe the situation around her.

Hmm? There seem to be a few people whose auras are off.

In each team, there were one or two people with bulging waists, and the shapes of these bulges were all very similar.

That familiar feeling... is it a gun?

Ling Mengxue's Divine Sense was almost all-pervasive, easily penetrating through obstructions to see what was inside their bags.

Especially within the laboratory area, every single lane was guarded by company staff, each carrying a shoulder bag.

Knives, guns, stun guns, whips, frying pans...

They even have bread?

Regardless, these people were indeed very dangerous. Each of them carried weapons and guarded a passage. They seemed nonchalant in their speech, but their every move was actually a surveillance of them.

As Senior Investigator of the Ninth Bureau, Yi Yun had obviously noticed this as well, and his expression became more serious.

The situation was worse than he had imagined!

Even with his skills, it would be extremely difficult for him to dodge so many gun barrels from all directions.

Moreover, there are so many ordinary people here; if a major battle were to break out, he wouldn't be able to fight freely!

The awakening of superpowers has now begun, and people are gradually entering the laboratory.

Ling Mengxue didn't sit idly by either; she quickly probed the area with her Divine Sense and witnessed a scene that left her utterly bewildered.

The high-tech laboratory didn't contain any bottles or jars filled with strange liquids; instead, a high-tech recliner sat in the spacious room.

However, the researchers did not use it. Instead, they wore white coats and sat at a diagnostic table in the corner, like doctors in a hospital. They wore masks and looked at the resolute young man with a buzz cut and his companion with a serious expression.

Although the boy didn't understand, he still sat obediently in the chair, waiting for the "doctor" to give instructions.

Superpowers! It's like a dream!

How many people dream of awakening superpowers?

Before the age of magic arrived, this was something no one would have dared to even dream of. In the past, if someone dared to say such a thing outside, they would only be regarded as a fool talking nonsense.

But now... he actually has the chance to become a legendary superhuman?!

How incredibly moving this is!

How unprecedentedly brilliant!

I'm so excited!

Finally, the "doctor" spoke, "Young man, do you crave power?"

"Nonsense, if I didn't crave it, would I have come all this way? Hurry up and get on with it ψ(`??)ψ!" The buzz-cut boy looked at the doctor with some disdain.

He's still a bit skeptical; can this thing really awaken superpowers? (`Δ?)

"..." The doctor frowned, thought for a moment, then relaxed, chuckled, and casually took a pocket watch from the table.

"Come on, stare at it. This is a magical artifact crafted by a true cultivator with immense magical power. It can grant you the power you desire!"

"Power... strength..."

As the "doctor" opened his pocket watch, a chaotic and ethereal scene appeared inside, seemingly containing a blood-red eye that even influenced reality, leaving the viewer momentarily disoriented.

In just three seconds, the crew-cut boy's gaze began to glaze over, as did another young man sitting next to him, who also fell into a dazed and infatuated state.

The doctor swung the mass-produced [Dreamfork Eye] in his hand, shaking it repeatedly. Seeing the time was right, a cold smile crept onto his lips, "Relax..."

"Don't have to think about anything..."

"Having received Master Hongzhen's baptism, you will possess powerful supernatural abilities, transcending the mundane world and completely surpassing ordinary people, becoming supreme beings! There is no need for you to remain here!"

"We... we will become the supreme beings!"

The hallucinogenic spell was cast, and the two boys immediately cheered in a daze.

"I am now a superhuman! I possess supreme power!"

After a burst of cheers, the crew-cut boy, followed by another companion, inexplicably rushed out, shouting all the while. Many people who witnessed this scene were dumbfounded.

Then, amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd and the scrutinizing eyes of the staff, he rushed into the elevator like a madman, seemingly preparing to leave.

"What the hell..."

Of everyone, only Ling Mengxue clearly saw what happened in the laboratory just now.

This isn't awakening at all!

Isn't this clearly misleading people?

That fucking...

Outrageous!!

Yi Yun frowned slightly as he watched the direction the two had left.

The two children hadn't awakened any superpowers at all; they were simply under Mind-Confounding Charm and drawn them into their own world of desires.

This person actually uses this method to bewitch people and make dirty money?

The people from the Moon-Hanging Palace he had encountered before were all ruthless and cruel, causing countless innocent people to die. This time, they actually pulled such a trick, which is morally reprehensible!

If we use a magical artifact, those children probably won't regain consciousness for at least two or three months.

"This situation is a bit tricky. Unless we can make these people realize their mistakes, but if I speak up now, I'm afraid I'll face not only verbal attacks, but also a siege by many martial artists. There's a high chance I'll be done for!"

Looking at the capricious young man standing in front of her, Ling Mengxue was somewhat speechless.

What's going on with this thing?

Without exception, more than a dozen people went in and out one after another, and all of them gained "superpowers," which made the people behind them even more delighted.

If someone were to stand up and expose this conspiracy at this moment, they would probably be beaten up on the spot by everyone.

You yourself don't want to awaken, yet you won't let others awaken?

Are you out of your mind?

Even Zhao Ping and Zhao Lei were extremely excited, their eyes filled with excitement, and it was probably impossible to dissuade them.

Finally, it was Ling Mengxue Yi Yun's turn.

Thinking that those people weren't in any danger, Yi Yun didn't take it too seriously. The most important thing now was to dig out evidence and then act according to the situation after sneaking into the laboratory later.

Absolutely perfect!

"Dude, aren't you leaving yet?"

Ling Mengxue urged him on, Yi Yun finally realized it was the same young man from before, instantly feeling much more relaxed.

After all, standing next to your own kind can always help you relax, both physically and mentally.

"Young man, something big is about to happen. You'd better stay away. Some things aren't as simple as they seem," Yi Yun said with a slight smile, adjusting his sunglasses.

Little did he know that his flamboyant attire had already attracted the attention of several staff members.

Ling Mengxue thought this guy was an idiot, so she simply ignored him.

Yi Yun didn't pay any attention and strode inside.

Seeing this, the two men surnamed Zhao behind her urged her on, and Ling Mengxue reluctantly stepped inside.

Get ready to call the police!

Chapter 131 Grandmaster?!

"Name."

"The Jade Emperor."

"What about his age?"

"Forgot."

"..." "How long have these symptoms lasted?"

The doctor glanced at the visitor suspiciously, then proceeded to write on the paper, 'Name: Jade Emperor.'

"It must have been quite a while." Yi Yun smiled slightly, took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of obsidian-like eyes that looked radiant.

"So... do you crave power?" the doctor asked instinctively.

"I don't crave it."

Beside her, Ling Mengxue sat in a chair watching the two talk, inexplicably feeling like her brain wasn't working properly.
