164: Chapter 164 The Followers Who Came to the Door

This period of time could be considered a rare moment of peaceful Cultivation for Chen Moxuan.

Nothing had happened to disturb him.

Currently, there were more than a dozen Special Abilities he had yet to analyze.

Excluding the Otherworld Walker, the Special Abilities of the two A-rank criminals, and the Reverse Orbit Shadow Trace possessed by the Rewinder, the rest were the most time-consuming to analyze.

In comparison, most of the remaining Special Abilities of the B-rank criminals could be fully analyzed within an hour or two under the boost of five-fold overclocking.

He could only use these Special Abilities once they were fully analyzed; there was no difference between analyzing them at 1% and 99%.

Therefore, Chen Moxuan decided to prioritize the analysis of the Special Abilities that would most significantly boost his combat power.

By the next morning, he had fully analyzed the Freezing Man's Special Ability, "Polar Ice Prison," and had analyzed more than half of the Gravity Man's Special Ability.

However, at this moment, Chen Moxuan suddenly opened his eyes and exited his meditative state.

The moment he opened his eyes, a slight ripple of Mental Energy radiated outward, and the room temperature instantly dropped by more than ten degrees.

A layer of crystalline frost quickly condensed on the floor, exuding a hint of chill.

Feeling the lingering chill in the room, Lv Ling was already mentally prepared and, unfazed, said:

"I've brought a few people, and I need you to step out and make an appearance."

This matter had already been mentioned during their previous discussion.

Chen Moxuan didn't ask any further questions and followed Lv Ling outside.

Not far from the hotel, a few people were waiting respectfully outside Chen Moxuan's barrier.

Clearly, Lv Ling had noticed the barrier Chen Moxuan had set up and instructed them to wait outside first.

Among them were many familiar faces to Chen Moxuan; they were the same people who had followed the advance and were in the front row of the team.

When they saw Chen Moxuan approaching, their eyes lit up in unison.

However, the one who stepped forward first to strike up a conversation was a stranger whom Chen Moxuan had not seen before.

"This must be Lord Chen Moxuan, right? Seeing you now, you truly are a man of exceptional talent and extraordinary bearing!"

It was a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, speaking in a tone that was almost sycophantic.

Lv Ling took the opportunity to introduce him:

"He is the mayor of this city. He has agreed to provide unconditional help for our upcoming actions, on the condition that he gets to meet you."

"Oh, Lord Lv Ling, what are you saying! Talking about conditions is too formal."

The middle-aged man acted embarrassed, waving his hands repeatedly,

"I simply admire Lord Chen Moxuan greatly and wanted to meet him no matter what."

"I haven't formally introduced myself yet. My humble name is Ma Debang, and I am the mayor of this C City. You can just call me Little Ma."

Mayor Ma rubbed his hands and looked at Chen Moxuan with a smile.

"The mayor of C City?"

Chen Moxuan looked carefully at Mayor Ma's face and recalled him.

Before the All-Things Calculation appeared, when he was still in his student days in this world,

He could occasionally see this face when watching TV programs.

It's just that the other party's attitude back then wasn't as humble as it was now, making it hard for him to make the connection at first.

"Mayor Ma, do you have something to ask of me?" Chen Moxuan asked.

"It's not really a matter! Not at all!"

Mayor Ma shook his head like a rattle-drum, but a look of difficulty suddenly appeared on his face. After hesitating for a moment, he slowly said:

"Actually... Lord, you should be aware that because of the divine miracles you displayed to protect everyone, a large group of people who admire you have gathered."

"Subsequently, many people scattered in various places heard the news and rushed over, wanting to meet you."

"Considering the instructions you left behind, we have been blocking others from approaching and disturbing you, only allowing them to enter in batches within the distance where they can just earn points."

"However... from yesterday until now, you have been staying in the hotel, and no news has come out."

"The others who haven't seen your divine manifestation have begun to suspect that Lord Chen Moxuan is just a facade we made up."

"If this continues, the order maintained because of you is at risk of collapsing at any moment. We really had no choice but to intrude..."

As he spoke, Mayor Ma looked at the few people behind him and introduced them:

"I and these few are all captains of the various teams among your followers, and we have quite a bit of influence among the crowd."

"Including myself, if we could stay near you, Lord, and pass on some news about you from time to time, perhaps we could appease those restless masses."

Because of the extraordinary means Chen Moxuan had displayed that were difficult for ordinary people to understand, and his otherworldly temperament in the eyes of ordinary people,

The name Chen Moxuan had already become a sacred and powerful symbol.

Now that the law had lost its effect, the name Chen Moxuan had replaced the role of the law.

Whether out of consideration for his own safety, or because he didn't want C City, which he had painstakingly governed for many years, to become a lifeless ghost town,

Mayor Ma had to do everything in his power to maintain order in the city at this critical moment.

However, there were also some of his own little ulterior motives in this.

To complete the hidden point task along the way.

Mayor Ma paused, then continued to add:

"Of course, it will absolutely not affect your freedom of movement, Lord. We just need a few influential figures to act as symbols and stay near you."

"This way we can..."

"You want to use my reputation to get things done?"

Chen Moxuan had already understood what Mayor Ma wanted to express.

"Yes, yes, that's it... We have also discussed this matter with Lord Lv Ling."

Chen Moxuan turned his head, cast a faint glance at Lv Ling, and seeing the other party nod slightly, said:

"Fine."

"Good, good! Since you agree, Lord, we will definitely maintain the order of the entire city and will never betray your trust."

Mayor Ma said with a firm tone.

"Speaking of which, have you seen Zhang Hu?" Chen Moxuan suddenly changed the subject and asked.

"He is a person as sturdy as a bear, and there are very likely four people with colorful hair and clothes following him."

"Are you referring to the Tiger Heavenly King and his group? They are currently following Lady Song Xin, searching everywhere for the masses scattered throughout the city."

"It seems their preparatory work is going very smoothly..." Chen Moxuan thought to himself.

Chen Moxuan was not entirely clear about exactly what Lv Ling and Song Xin had done.

But from Mayor Ma's words, it wasn't hard to tell that Lv Ling and Song Xin had successfully integrated into the crowd and established their prestige.

And in their previous discussion, Chen Moxuan had also mentioned that if they needed manpower, they could ask Zhang Hu and the others for help.

As it seemed, everything was proceeding according to plan, and now he only needed to focus on improving his own strength.

"If there's nothing else, I'll head back first." Chen Moxuan said indifferently.

"That is natural. Please leave the subsequent matters to us; we wouldn't dare to trouble you in the slightest, Lord." Mayor Ma replied hurriedly.

After saying this, Chen Moxuan turned around and walked back into the hotel.

He had already memorized the auras of those few people and readjusted his True Qi barrier to allow them passage.

The few people who had come with Mayor Ma quickly dispersed and stood guard around the hotel.

Their faces were filled with expressions of satisfaction, as if they finally had the opportunity to contribute to their idol.

After everyone had stood firmly in place, Mayor Ma lowered his head slightly, his expression becoming somewhat awkward, and finally, he slowly cast his gaze toward Lv Ling.

Seeing Lv Ling's expression as calm as water, he spoke unhurriedly:

"Mayor Ma, according to the terms, it is time to fulfill the contract."
