As for why, Yun Hua immediately replied that he had important intelligence and would use it to atone for his crime.

"Important intelligence?" Qin Daichuan, who was interrogating him, lifted his eyelids to look at him.

Yun Hua trembled all over, but still managed to muster a bit of her usual confidence, allowing herself to stand on the same negotiating platform as the interrogator opposite her.

"Yes." He straightened up as he did so.

Qin Daichuan scrutinized him, and Yun Hua released some information. "The Ability Control Bureau doesn't know, and all of humanity doesn't know, that there exists an undiscovered, dangerous anomaly in this world!"

He collapsed under this abnormal condition.

Qin Daichuan: "..."

He thought he was going to say something incredible, but this is it...?

"Oh," Qin Daichuan said calmly.

Yun Hua glared at him. "You don't believe me?"

Qin Daichuan packed up and prepared to leave. The case had basically completed the procedures of the Ability Control Bureau.

"You don't believe me!" Yun Hua shouted, "I never imagined that people are so ignorant, even the leaders of humanity, the Ability Control Bureau, are so ignorant! You haven't seen that kind of anomaly, you don't know how terrifying it is. It wears a human skin, but inside the skin is an evil Pollution. After the appearance of the S-Rank Polluted, the humanoid Polluted has also appeared. I'm sure it's even more evil and powerful than the S-Rank Polluted!"

Qin Daichuan finished packing and stood up. Yun Hua was still screaming wildly in his desperate struggle, the shackles on his body rattling in his excitement. He seemed insane, but his madness subsided after Qin Daichuan Qin Daichuan casually uttered a sentence: "To correct you, that wasn't a humanoid Polluted, it was a monster."

Yun Hua seemed to have been put on pause.

As Qin Daichuan was about to leave the glass partition, Yun Hua's voice came from behind him. "... You knew? You've always known?"

That's why I wasn't surprised, and that's why I knew it wasn't a humanoid Polluted.

I was so ignorant, so ridiculous.

Qin Daichuan did not turn around.

Yun Hua was both crying and laughing, as if the Pollution had not yet been cleared away.

Knowing he was doomed, he screamed a curse for the extinction of humanity.

Qin Daichuan heard this, lowered his eyes, and didn't take it to heart. Humans have always been the weaker party, but even if they are weak, they will fight to the end.

The cases of decreased superpower levels and disappearances in the wilderness came to a complete close with the Ability Control Bureau announcing Yun Hua's crimes and his impending execution. The public's curses did not reach the hospital. In a ward of the hospital, visitors from the Ability Control Bureau announced the fate of several victims whose superpower levels had decreased.

"I see... So once it drops, there's no way to recover."

Ye Jiang was standing next to the Miao Family heir when he uttered those words in a daze. She had been invited by the Ability Control Bureau to conduct final physical examinations on several victims, and that's when she overheard what was happening.

She realized that the damage caused by Yun Hua taking away her powers was so great.

In the next ward, Wu Jiangshui, one of the victims, was going crazy because he couldn't accept the reality. The sounds of crashing and banging kept coming. Miao Qiao very quiet. She sat in front of the window of the ward, staring at the sunlight outside without blinking. Ye Jiang thought she was mentally strong and had calmly accepted everything. But then she saw the back of the Miao Family heir trembling slightly in the sunlight.

"Really..."

"The Blood Moon granted humanity the ability to save itself, yet I was unable to protect it; I am truly ashamed."

The Miao Family heir covered his face.

Ye Jiang: "..."

Ye Jiang couldn't describe her feelings at this moment. Originally, with the case being solved, the inexplicable displeasure she felt after learning that someone's superpowers had diminished had dissipated, but now that feeling had resurfaced.

Using other people's supernatural abilities is unacceptable; such power should not exist.

She thought unhappily, her eyes dark and deep, as if blood were seeping through them.

Meanwhile, in the underground glass compartment of the Ability Control Bureau, Yun Hua, who had already been sentenced to death and was awaiting execution, was still shouting and cursing madly. At this moment, he stopped cursing humanity and began to emphasize his role.

You need me!

Humanity needs me!

"I am still A-Rank ability user. Humanity is in grave danger, yet you want to kill me. How foolish! This is like cutting off your own arm!"

Do you even understand that you need me?!

No one heard his ravings. Yun Hua continued his madness, when suddenly his face turned pale, and his body went limp like Noodle. Pain gnawed at him like a leech, spreading to every part of his body. At the same time, he felt his powers being drained from his body, like a sudden flood. Inadvertently, he glanced around and saw the Blood Moon mark on his hand fading.

He activated his Ability System, trembling violently.

A-Rank, B-Rank, C-Rank, D-Rank... His superpowers are rapidly declining!

"Aaaaaah!"

He screamed in terror and threw himself against the glass wall, pounding on it desperately.

"My ability level has dropped too!"

"There... there are people with this ability! Help me!"

Nobody believed it.

His supervisor dismissed it as nonsense, because it was already certain that he was the one who caused his ability level to drop.

Tsk, this guy's still playing around even when he's about to die?

Chapter 78 Submit to my sister, I'm very cheap.

Ye Jiang had no idea that such a place existed in this city. The gleaming dome and the gleaming floor created a scene of pristine cleanliness and brightness. Yet, this place was merely a place for eating. Ye Jiang, a small-town resident, had learned a lot from all the cramped and cramped restaurants she had encountered since leaving the hospital.

The luxurious restaurant was situated high up, on the top floor of a tall building. Through the glass, one could see far and wide. Ye Jiang, like a country bumpkin, admired the crystal chandelier on the restaurant's dome for a full ten minutes before finally turning her gaze to the view outside the glass windows. This glance revealed the large screen in the central square; after being closed for several days, the screen had lit up again. On the screen, a dejected woman...

The girl punched a Polluted several times her size, then walked out of the rain of tissues with droopy eyelids and a listless expression. The girl raised her face, and Ye Jiang saw the Polluted's face clearly. She looked familiar, like herself.

She tilted her head slightly, a hint of confusion in her eyes at her face appearing on the big screen.

"Ah, what a beautiful scene, so serene, so elegant." A deeply emotional exclamation came from the seat opposite. Before Ye Jiang's brain could react to this eulogistic praise, her toes under the table started scratching awkwardly.

Xingyi Technology employee, dressed in a three-piece suit, watched the video on the large screen in the square with a satisfied expression. He then looked at Ye Jiang and said, "Contestant Ye, this compilation of your most spectacular moments was created by our company based on the recordings from your wristband. We plan to air it for ten consecutive days to ensure that everyone in City A sees your heroic deeds. Do you like this little token of our appreciation?"

Ye Jiang stared at him blankly.

Silence is spreading.

The Xingyi Technology employee wiped the sweat from his brow, belatedly realizing that his long-overdue attempt to curry favor might not have been very effective. His attempt to flatter had backfired. As the company representative there for negotiations, the employee felt uneasy. He observed the competition winner opposite him, and the words he was about to say became difficult to utter.

How could anyone with superpowers not like such a cool promotional video?!

The staff member, with unwavering conviction, continued the conversation, "Um... well... Ms. Ye, you should have already been notified that the competition is about to resume, but it won't continue. Instead, we'll be awarding the prizes directly. You are the undisputed winner of this competition, and our company hopes that you will add a few words of praise for us in your acceptance speech. It doesn't need to be long, just a few words will do!"

Wiping away sweat, the staff member revealed the purpose of his trip: he had booked the entire restaurant with a view of the central square's large screen specifically for this purpose.

Xingyi Technology is currently facing a major crisis. Yun Hua committed a heinous crime in City A, and Xingyi Technology, which invited him, could not escape unscathed. As a result, its reputation has plummeted. Even today, relatives of the victims are still blocking and causing trouble at the entrance of Xingyi Technology. In order to salvage its reputation, Xingyi Technology plans to focus its attention on the winners of the competition, especially Ye Jiang, the first-place winner. As a rising star, Ye Jiang is currently enjoying great popularity. She is both a super-powered ability user and Healer. Moreover, she was previously unknown and has only recently been discovered. With these multiple advantages, Ye Jiang's reputation has already spread beyond City A, making her the most sought-after ability user.

If it were contestant Ye, he could definitely salvage the company's reputation!

Xingyi Technology, with this plan in mind, produced an incredibly exciting battle video of Player Ye overnight and displayed it on the large screen in the square as a pledge of loyalty.

I never expected it to turn out like this.

The staff couldn't understand it. Didn't contestant Ye want to become famous? Wouldn't she be happy if someone made this kind of video to promote her? Wasn't the point of participating in this kind of competition to gain fame?

no.

Ye Jiang is for 5 million.

So Ye Jiang was a little confused at this moment. Oh, she wasn't confused because she was hesitating about whether to help Xingyi Technology, but because she only just realized what the people from Xingyi Technology had to say? A speech? To win the 5 million yuan prize in the competition, they even needed to give a speech?

Ye Jiang: "..."

Earning 5 million is really not easy.

Ye Jiang remained silent, lost in her own thoughts, while Xingyi Technology, opposite her, wiped the sweat from her brow repeatedly. "Contestant Ye..."

The staff member wanted to say something more, but suddenly stopped talking, staring intently at the company's new product bracelet on his wrist, which remained motionless. After a long while, he said to Ye Jiang, "Excuse me, I have to go back to the company first," and then hurriedly got up and left the restaurant.

Ye Jiang pulled her thoughts out of her personal world and watched the other person's departing figure.
