121: Chapter 121 Exploration Team

"If this is the truth about innate Transcendent… then it is truly ridiculous."

After some bold speculation, Chen Moxuan recalled his parents in this world and could not help but sneer.

The population of the Dazhou Nation expanded rapidly, not only because there were almost no traces of Monsters or alien races within its territory, but also because of data provided by the official Transcendent authorities.

For every ten million newborns, one innate Transcendent would be born.

Because of this data, countless families hoped that a Transcendent would appear in their own households.

Chen Moxuan's parents were the same, and they had reached a point of madness over it.

Generally speaking, high-Rank Transcendent would exhibit anomalies at birth.

Even for the weakest abilities, there would be some manifestation by the age of twelve.

So when Chen Moxuan turned twelve, which was the same year Chen Moxuan transmigrated from Blue Star.

His parents no longer held any expectations for Chen Moxuan, and after leaving him some living expenses, they disappeared.

Chen Moxuan guessed that they were most likely planning to start a new character.

Unlike the orphan whose parents died in the Martial Arts World, here he was an orphan with living parents.

However, he was indifferent to this.

Possessing an adult's mind and relying on that living allowance, maintaining his livelihood was not difficult for him.

It was just that now, it seemed his parents' obsession with dreaming of giving birth to a Transcendent might just be a bubble that would burst at a single touch.

He did not know how many more newly born innocent lives would be harmed.

Looking across the entire Dazhou Nation, how many thousands of families were being coerced by this illusory vision?

In reality, the Transcendent born from these ten million newborns were just those already designated by the official Transcendent authorities according to some rule.

"However, what about the Awakener?" Chen Moxuan could not help but have another doubt arise.

The Awakener was an Acquired Special Ability, and their appearance rate was far rarer than that of the Transcendent.

Although the Special Ability fluctuation was so weak it could barely be detected, Chen Moxuan, who only possessed a Special Ability until ten days ago, was clearly categorized as an Awakener.

"Perhaps, by fully deducing this incomplete Special Ability Law, I can get the answer…"

Chen Moxuan decided to stop speculating for now and focus on parsing the Explosive Flame King's Special Ability as soon as possible.

Nowadays, his Mental Energy recovery rate had completely kept up with the consumption of [All-Things Calculation].

Letting the Special Ability run on its own, he could finish parsing [Formless Tribulation Flame] in 2 hours and 23 minutes.

It was just that he believed the Hero Association would not take long to discover the news of the Explosive Flame King's death.

It had been many years since a Transcendent had died in battle in G-District, let alone the number one B-Rank Hero.

By then, C City would surely fall into chaos, and it would likely attract a large group of heroes.

He had to make the most of the free time right now.

Chen Moxuan quickly sat cross-legged on the open ground and closed his eyes lightly.

Among the Spiritual Sense usage techniques left to him by Zhong Quandao, there was also a meditation method.

Using the meditation method, his Mental Energy recovery speed would be further improved.

Thus, he could barely maintain parsing at a five-fold rate.

The downside was that to run the meditation method, he had to be fully focused and could not do anything else.

As for why he did not increase the multiplier further.

Overclocking Calculation did not mean that increasing it by one fold would increase consumption by one fold; rather, as the multiplier increased, the consumption grew exponentially.

If it were just running for a few seconds at ten-fold overclocking, it would be fine, but for a long time, his current Mental Energy would be difficult to sustain.

Moreover, he had already consumed a lot of Mental Energy by capturing the escaping heaven and earth spiritual energy clusters.

If too much Mental Energy was consumed, it would not only affect the use of his Special Ability, but his control over True Qi would also be affected.

Transcendent Special Abilities were strange and varied; there was no guarantee when a Transcendent might come knocking.

He had to maintain a perfect state at all times so he could be ready to meet battle at any moment.

Five-fold overclocking was the state where consumption and Mental Energy recovery reached a balance under the support of his meditation method.

[Parsing Special Ability Formless Tribulation Flame, estimated time: 29 minutes]

...

During the period while Chen Moxuan was parsing the Explosive Flame King's Special Ability.

The Hero Association staff discovered that the Explosive Flame King had been out of contact for several minutes and immediately dispatched a squad to the scene.

They were in a group of five, with four fully armed guards surrounding the perimeter, and in the middle was a detection personnel holding a precision detector.

"This is simply a disaster-level battle."

A guard gripped his submachine gun tightly, his gaze sweeping over the nearby ruined buildings, and he could not help but sigh,

"Did this Monster escape from a prison or some psychiatric hospital?"

"To be able to fight Explosive Flame King to this extent…"

The detection personnel was holding a calibration-like detection device, scanning around.

"The residual energy fluctuations here are already quite weak, go over there."

The detection personnel looked at the radar on the detection device and pointed to a tilted, dilapidated building.

There were winding burn marks on the building walls.

They soon arrived inside the building, following the charred hole formed by the Explosive Flame King piercing through the floor, and arrived at the floor where Chen Moxuan and the Explosive Flame King last fought.

However, when Chen Moxuan moved the Explosive Flame King's body, he also conveniently cleaned up the bloodstains.

Except for the charred ruins all over the floor, they found nothing.

"The traces of battle end here," a guard said in a low voice.

"But there are still many residual energy fluctuations here, which satisfy the analysis conditions."

The detection personnel immediately stepped forward to scan with the device. As the blue light on the screen flickered, his pupils suddenly contracted:

"The data analysis is out. Apart from the Explosive Flame King, the residual energy fluctuations at the scene have a 99.9% match with the B-Rank wanted criminal Song Xin in the database."

"And there is another person who has no record in the database."

"Song Xin? That core member of the newly emerged criminal organization Madman Society?"

Hearing this name, the guard immediately recalled it.

He had just participated in a capture operation not long ago.

That time, it was precisely when they caught a member of the Madman Society, and then through a memory search by a certain Transcendent's Special Ability, they learned of the existence of the Madman Society.

Song Xin was the only Madman Society cadre whose face they obtained from that member's memory.

And C City just happened to have a B-Rank Transcendent who possessed a Special Ability that could write out the location of anyone within a hundred kilometers of him through their face.

Transcendent whose abilities were not suitable for combat were usually not registered as heroes.

But the Hero Association would usually give them superior conditions and rights, obliging them to assist the Hero Association when necessary.

Just like Yang Shan from the Qingqiu Psychiatric Hospital.

That B-Rank Transcendent, holding a "try it out" attitude, unexpectedly managed to actually write out Song Xin's location using his Special Ability.

He discovered that the other party was hiding in Class 2, Grade 3 of C City No. 3 Middle School.

Therefore, the Hero Association happened to contact Wan Chaoren, who was operating in that area, and asked him to solve the matter while he was at it.

Because that little girl looked quite pretty, the guard felt it was a pity at the time, so his memory was particularly deep.

"How is that possible? Lord Wan Chaoren had already definitely solved that wanted criminal a while ago."

Another guard retorted, unable to help but take a few steps back.

"The instrument's analysis results cannot be wrong. I will first record the other unknown energy fluctuation in the database and then report this matter to the Association."

The detection personnel stared closely at the screen, his fingertips sliding quickly on the touch panel.

And at the next moment, three muffled, thunder-like gunshots suddenly rang out behind him.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The three guards beside him did not even have time to let out a cry of surprise; a line of blood spurted from their heads, and they fell straight to the ground.

"Eh?"

The detection personnel turned his head and met the cold, stern gaze of the guard who had just retorted to him.

The pitch-black muzzle was smoking, locked tightly onto his forehead.

"Wait…"

"Bang!"

In the sound of a gunshot, the detection personnel widened his eyes and fell heavily to the ground.
