Chapter Seventy-Two: Beyond the City
"We suspect there's weirdness wandering, so go investigate, anyway...... There's nothing important today, just talk to the people in that area and let them have some snacks. Jiang Yichuan said.
Su Ming nodded, thinking that there was finally a weird killing, since he joined the Investigation Bureau, he had no chance to kill weirdos, let alone become stronger.
He also has to test the potential of the system, investigate all the operating mechanisms of the system, and then formulate an efficient "leveling" process, and then hunt all the way and become stronger all the way.
If all goes well, maybe he'll be able to reach an A level in three months.
Thinking of this, Su Ming couldn't help but ask, "Captain, is there anyone in our Investigation Bureau who can fight the A-level weirdness?" ”
"There are very few people who are qualified to go head-to-head with A-level weirdness, and there are only a few I know, our minister, deputy director, and Minister Zhang."
"Can the three of them win the A-rank weird?"
"It depends on the situation, the deputy director is definitely okay, the deputy director is a person who can fight alone and S-class weirdness, and he is an S-class commissioner recognized by the four major alliances, and his strength is unfathomable.
As for the Minister and Minister Zhang...... There is a high probability that you can also kill A-class weirdness, but you can't say absolutely, there is no absolute thing in the world, so the specific win or loss depends on the strength of the enemy.
There are also strong monsters in A-class weirdness, and although some A-ranks are not strong in immunity to abilities, their comprehensive combat power may be close to S-class...... If it is an ordinary A-level, both the minister and the minister can easily solve it. ”
Su Ming nodded solemnly.
He probably understood the strength positioning of the upcoming traversers, and those traversers were all at the level of Sylvie and Zhang Tianxiao, which was really tricky.
"Why do you ask this? I heard you killed the Subway Stalker, and it's weird with a special A rating. Jiang Yichuan observed Su Ming's expression through the rearview mirror, "You really killed it?" What level did that weirdness reach in the end? ”
"Didn't you try to kill it?" Su Ming asked rhetorically.
Jiang Yichuan: "Subway stalkers will pick their prey, and those with abilities of the minister's level will not enter the alien space. Most people who can enter the other dimension will be killed.
You should have read the materials, right? The highest observed rating of a Stalker is B, and experts speculate that continuing to kill a Stalker could also lead to an A-level, or even higher.
In addition, because this monster picks its prey and cannot contain it, causing great casualties around the world, the Bureau of Investigation has given it a special A rating.
Theoretically...... It can't be killed, because the people who can enter that alternate dimension are the people it thinks it can kill, and the stronger the person, the harder it is to enter.
The Minister said that she was very optimistic about you, because you killed the Stalker, and you were able to enter that alternate dimension, proving that you were the target that the Pursuer judged to be killable.
She says you're likely to have exploded in a short period of time, gaining tremendous strength and eventually outpacing the hunter's ability to adapt. Is this the case? ”
"That's not wrong." Su Ming replied casually.
Only him, Flora, and Xia Xiaoyu know the truth.
The reason why the Stalker is only observed to be B-rank is that after it evolves to A-rank, there will be a stage of explosion in strength.
Su Ming remembered the Stalker's evolution from Baby Spider form to Shadow form, when Flora's ability was directly immune to the opponent.
If he hadn't had annihilation mode at that time, I'm afraid everyone would have died there.
Su Ming suspected that there should have been stronger people who had entered the subway station before him, but those people lost the chance to escape after killing the pursuers for the third time.
Su Ming has seen the evolution speed of the stalker with his own eyes, as the number of deaths increases, the resurrection time becomes shorter and shorter, and the strength becomes stronger and stronger, and there is a high probability that no one will be able to escape from the subway station.
"I heard that your ability rating is also S, and you've made it through the Staircase of Fear." Jiang Yichuan said expressionlessly, "I hope you can be cautious enough in your future work, do our business, strength is not the most important, prudence is the ...... And, of course, luck. ”
Jiang Yichuan paused, and then said, "There was once a genius like you in my team...... In the end he died. ”
"Is the person he's talking about the Night Star?" Su Ming asked Xia Xiaoyu.
Xia Xiaoyu nodded, with a look of emotion on her face: "That guy is very powerful, if he wasn't so arrogant, maybe he wouldn't have died." ”
……
The car continued to drive north of Dongyang Island and soon left the city center.
As soon as you leave the city, the surrounding scenery is immediately different.
The surrounding residential areas have been returned into above-ground buildings in Su Ming's impression, with an old style, with an average of only four or five floors, and they are very closely arranged.
The exterior surface of the building has been eroded by rainwater, weathering mottled cracks, and many buildings look like dilapidated buildings.
Jiang Yichuan drove on the narrow road, on the sidewalks on both sides, the passers-by who were walking were attracted by the headlights of the car, and cast a timid gaze at them, their expressions were sneaky and vigilant, and their faces had a kind of cunning and alertness that did not belong to the people in the city.
Su Ming, who was sitting in the car, met the eyes of these people, and the other party immediately looked away, quickly turned into the dark alley on the side of the road, and disappeared.
"It's completely different from the city." Su Ming said with emotion.
Xia Xiaoyu explained: "Urbanization has not yet spread across the island, and although it has been ten years since the new regime was established, there are still many people who are unable to adapt to the change in the rules, especially those at the bottom. The lower the population, the more difficult it is to adapt to the dramatic changes in their living environment, even if the changes are beneficial to them. ”
Mr. Jiang's car took several turns in the street before finally stopping next to a convenience store.
Su Ming followed Jiang Yichuan to get out of the car, watched the other party walk to the window of the convenience store, and talked to the people inside.
Jiang Yichuan turned his head and glanced at Su Ming, and turned his head into the dark alley next to him.
Su Ming followed, and after walking into the alley, he found that there were so many people inside, strong men with dragons and tigers standing on the side of the road, and the sparks flickered on their lips, and when Jiang Yichuan approached, they all lowered their heads in unison, smiled and moved their steps to make way for him.
There was a big man who looked like he had a relatively high status, half-bent over, and greeted him with a smile on his face: "Brother Jiang, are you here?" Our boss has been waiting for you for a long time. ”
"Take us to see him immediately, get the matter at hand done as soon as possible, and let you go home early to save overtime."
"Hey, hey, hey! You joked, it's an honor to serve the Bureau of Investigation, and it's okay to work overtime. ”
Jiang Yichuan spoke very sophisticatedly, and it could be seen that he was very familiar with this group of people, but Su Ming was still a little unaccustomed to this scene.
An uncle who looks like he is over thirty years old, and the captain who looks only eighteen years old nods and bows, this scene is full of realistic magic.
But I have to say that the captain is still quite pompous, Su Ming thought to himself.
Under the leadership of the big man, the three of them passed through the small alley, and the street suddenly became spacious, the shops on both sides were lit up, and the woman with heavy makeup stood under the lamp and scratched her head at the drunks, trying to win the first business after dark.
Their gazes crossed Jiang Yichuan's shoulders and fell on Su Ming, throwing a wink at him, and gently lifting the skirt of their cheongsam.
