A strange place in the southern suburbs.
This place is widely recognized as a dangerous spot by the people of Fengnan City.
It has been in existence for ten years now.
Since an S Grade terrifying and eerie creature appeared here ten years ago, very few people have dared to approach this place.
S Grade anomaly is something that ordinary Awakened cannot contend with.
Fortunately, this S Grade weirdo never leaves this place. After gathering a group of weirdo subordinates, he also keeps his subordinates extremely disciplined. As long as no one dares to come here to seek death, he never shows himself to harm anyone.
For some unknown reason, the higher-ups in the government have ignored the situation, simply putting up warning signs around the area to prohibit people from approaching.
Tonight, the eerie southern suburbs, where few people are usually seen, has become unusually lively.
Ninety teenagers stood outside the warning sign, curiously observing the construction site not far away.
"Squad leader, are we really going in?" Bai Lu asked softly, gazing at the dark shadows of the construction site.
"We're not here to fight, we're just here to gain some experience." Ling Xiaoyun was also a little unsure.
"Besides, where else in the entire Fengnan City are there any strange occurrences besides here? Without strange occurrences, how can we level up?"
"It would be great if we could leave the city, but the application process is too complicated right now. Anyway, we have to give it a try."
These ninety people are all experts now, with the weakest reaching the D-level strength.
But you should know that the school's teachers are only D-level Awakened.
"If this doesn't work, then I'll have to wait until after winter break to apply to leave the city and go to the Mass Burial Mountain."
Everyone nodded. Ever since they got the cheat code, they've been going out to hunt ghosts almost every night.
This group of people already constitutes a considerable force in Fengnan City.
I keep refreshing it every day, every single day. Even with all the weird stuff, it's never enough!
So squad leader Ling Xiaoyun set her sights on this construction site in the southern suburbs.
"Don't make a sound, get within ten meters and take a look," Ling Xiaoyun waved her hand and said.
She was the first to obtain the cheat ability, making her the strongest among them, and she has now reached C-level strength.
With this level of ability, Ling Xiaoyun was already qualified to get into the Dragon Capital First Academy, but she was not satisfied with that.
The college entrance examination is no longer what Ling Xiaoyun and her friends are pursuing; grinding in the supernatural and improving their strength has become their instinct.
They were heading to the Border Magic and Martial Academy, a battlefield between humans and the supernatural, their Heaven.
In fact, it wasn't just Ling Xiaoyun and her group who had their eyes on the construction site in the southern suburbs; Ye Mo, the Protagonist of this world, also had his sights set on it.
Ye Mo strengthens himself by devouring the bizarre.
He also knew there was a group of people like him who would go out at night to hunt ghosts, but they had never met.
Ye Mo's methods are all bizarre and unpredictable, which could easily lead people to mistake him for a member of the Black Robe Sect. Therefore, it's best to avoid encountering him if possible.
Humanity's desire to eradicate the Black Robe Sect is unwavering; there is absolutely no possibility of peace.
Of course, this is also because the Protagonist is still very weak.
He's only at E-rank strength now, but in the original story, Ye Mo was already close to C-rank strength.
It was precisely because the students in Class 10 were grinding so hard that the rarest monsters in Fengnan City became extremely scarce, which is why his strength had not improved for so long.
Tomorrow is the school's final exam, Ye Mo wants to improve his skills again before the exam, which is why he is taking the risk of coming to the construction site in the southern suburbs to try his luck.
But to Ye Mo's utter surprise, he would encounter students from Class 10 here.
Ye Mo was naturally aware of Class 10, the class at the very bottom of the class rankings.
"What's going on? Why are the people from Class 10 here? And their strength... damn it, they're the ones who were fighting me for the strange thing all this time?"
Ye Mo's face was extremely ugly. He was an extremely selfish person, and anyone who stood in his way was his enemy.
Even those Awakened humans are no exception.
He only cares about himself. In his view, only when he becomes strong can he better protect humanity, and using resources on others is a waste.
He couldn't help but feel murderous intent towards Ling Xiaoyun and the others.
The Protagonist scored 5.9 points, is definitely not normal; he seems to have some serious mental illness.
Just then, one of the students in Class 10 said in confusion, "Strange, where did these experience points come from?"
Ling Xiaoyun and the others checked their respective system interfaces at the same time, and sure enough, their experience points were increasing.
"Be on guard!" Ling Xiaoyun reacted the fastest and shouted immediately.
An increase in experience points means there's something strange happening nearby.
This wasn't the first or second time they'd encountered this situation, and following Ling Xiaoyun's command, they instantly formed Defense Array.
A dozen or so students started applying buffs to everyone, increasing speed, strength, defense, and resistance.
Instantly, colorful lights emanated from everyone's bodies.
Hiding in the shadows, Ye Mo was dumbfounded. What was going on? Why were the students in Class 10 suddenly acting as if they were facing a formidable enemy?
Just then, he suddenly felt that the Weird Power within his body was Rapid Speed decreasing.
What the hell is going on?
Ye Mo was shocked. He suddenly remembered someone in Class 10 shouting about experience points, and a bad feeling suddenly came to his mind.
Without a second thought, he immediately retreated more than ten meters.
As the Protagonist, he must have some ways to hide.
Sure enough, after moving more than ten meters away, the Weird Power no longer diminished.
Ye Mo tested it a few more times, and his face immediately darkened.
He discovered that the Weird Power would decrease as long as he was within fifty meters of the students in Class 10.
You'll be fine once you leave this area.
"How could this happen? There's something very wrong with the students in Class 10."
But he doesn't dare to try now. If he tries a few more times, he won't even be able to maintain his E-level strength. How will he take the exam tomorrow?
But the thought of tomorrow's exam sent chills down Ye Mo's spine.
What should I do if I encounter someone from Class 10 in the competition?
"We've lost our experience points; the enemy has probably retreated," Human Dao.
"They must be members of the Black Robe Sect. The Black Robe Sect seals their supernatural abilities within their bodies, and once they get close to us, they will also provide us with experience points," someone analyzed.
"Be careful, everyone. Don't let your guard down," Ling Xiaoyun reminded them.
Then, waving her hand, she said, "Advance ten meters, and be ready to retreat at any time."
No experience points!
"Ten more meters!" Ling Xiaoyun said calmly.
"I've gained experience points!"
"Maintain this distance; no one should make any rash moves."
Everyone nodded, cautiously surveying their surroundings, ready for Combat at any moment, while excitedly watching their experience points rapidly increase on the system panel.
At this rate, they will all advance in two hours at most.
Meanwhile, back home, Ye Mo felt increasingly uneasy; those people in Class 10 had serious problems.
He couldn't help but think of the Black Robe Sect. Could it be that Class Ten had collectively joined the Black Robe Sect?
Otherwise, how could a bunch of good-for-nothings suddenly become Awakened?
Regardless of the reason, since the other party was able to Plunder his Weird Power, they must not be allowed to live.
"Ideally, they should be members of the Black Robe Sect; if not, then find an opportunity to eliminate them all."
Thinking of this, he took out his phone and dialed the Guard Bureau's hotline to report the incident.
Ling Yi, hidden in the shadows, watched the entire performance of this guy.
There are just too many Protagonist like Old Liu these days.
He's ruthless and cruel; he'll lie low if he can, and seize any opportunity to cheat others.
It's not that this kind of Protagonist is bad, it's just that their values and bottom line are so low that once they fall to the ground, they can't be picked up again.
Was Ye Mo wrong in doing this? No, if it were Ling Yi, he probably would have done the same.
But as I said before, it depends on the world.
In this context of all humanity fighting against the supernatural and Demonic Beast, what he did was a bit excessive.
As for the Old Liu, it's not like only Ye Mo knows how to do it!
So Ling Yi also took out his phone and dialed the Guard Bureau's hotline to report the incident.
"Hello, I am Zhang Meng, a teacher from Class 20 of Fengnan City No. 2 Middle School. I am reporting Ye Mo, a student in Class 2, by my real name. He has strange behavior and may be a member of the Black Robe Sect."
After hanging up the phone, Ling Yi smiled slightly, glanced at the Protagonist standing at his window, snorted coldly, and transformed into a bolt of Thunder, returning to the construction site in the southern suburbs.
There's an S Grade mystery here, and Ling Yi has to save him.
This bizarre predecessor was a powerful Awakened One from the Guard Bureau, named Feng Yunkai.
Ten years ago, during a siege of the Black Robe Sect in Nanfeng City, 320 members of the Guard Bureau Guard Bureau fell into a trap set by the Black Robe Sect.
It was Feng Yunkai who sacrificed his own life to save his colleagues from the Guard Bureau.
After Feng Yunkai died, he transformed into a powerful S Grade supernatural being. However, he still remembered that he was a member of the Guard Bureau, never harming ordinary people, and even restraining most of the supernatural beings in the area from doing evil.
This is the main reason why the Guard Bureau has been unable to deal with this S Grade anomaly for ten years.
In the original storyline, Feng Yunkai ultimately died at the hands of the Protagonist.
The Protagonist is driven by power, completely shameless and without any moral compass.
The Protagonist of this world must die.
But Ling Yi won't take the initiative; he'll wait for the Protagonist to come to him personally, and then mold him into a villain.
Having experienced the world of Bald Qiang, Ling Yi has confirmed one thing: the identities of Protagonist and villain do not conflict.
The Protagonist is the Protagonist of this world, while the antagonist is the antagonist of all humanity.
Inside a separate office at a construction site in the southern suburbs, a burly figure stood by the window, looking down at Ling Xiaoyun and the others.
Ling Yi's figure appeared suddenly behind him.
Feng Yunkai sensed the movement behind him and couldn't help but turn around to look.
"It's great that such a powerful figure as you has appeared in Fengnan City!" Feng Yunkai said with a smile.
"My Zhang Meng, and I'm the homeroom teacher for those students," Ling Yi said.
"They seem to be able to absorb strange powers to increase their strength. This must be your doing, right? I noticed them as soon as they appeared a few months ago."
"These children have the same abilities and the same methods. They are clearly not Awakened, yet they can absorb Weird Power and use strange skills. If this method could be popularized..."
"Time is running out for humanity," Feng Yunkai said worriedly.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt these children."
Ling Yi nodded; he believed him, after all, he knew the plot.
"I can take you away from here!" Ling Yi said!
There are many kinds of supernatural phenomena, but Feng Yunkai's is a regional supernatural phenomenon. This kind of supernatural phenomenon cannot leave its birthplace; once it leaves, it will surely die.
These kinds of regional mysteries are usually driven by an extremely strong Obsession, and Guard Fengnan City is Feng Yunkai's Obsession, as well as his Obsession as a Guard Bureau.
Upon hearing Ling Yi's words, Feng Yunkai smiled, though his smile was now quite unsightly. His swollen face was distorted and grotesque, making it difficult for him to regain his human form.
"If these children absorb my Weird Power, their strength should increase considerably."
Ling Yi frowned; he had already understood Feng Yunkai's meaning.
"After becoming a monster, I've been constantly suppressing the urge to devour me, which is not a pleasant experience."
Feng Yunkai turned to Ling Yi and said, "You should leave. I will help these children grow up; this is the last thing I can do for Fengnan City."
Ling Yi wanted to say something, but ultimately said nothing.
Leaving the construction site in the southern suburbs, Ling Yi felt very uncomfortable; to be honest, he was somewhat on edge.
Ling Yi admired these kinds of people. They had faith and Obsession in their hearts, and they were willing to give up everything, including their lives, for their beliefs.
