Super God: I simulated the heavens and was broadcast live in public

Chapter 205 A Tough Battle
Finally, Yunming finished this dinner that had been so unsettling.

He stood up, took a deep breath, and walked steadily out of the restaurant.

A cool night breeze swept over him as he walked to his car, opened the door, and got in.

After starting the car, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a black car in the rearview mirror.

At first, he didn't pay much attention, but after he made several turns, the black car kept following him closely, and his expression instantly became serious.

“I’m being watched.”

Yunming muttered to himself, his eyes revealing vigilance and composure.

He began to wonder, who exactly was following him? Was it the authorities who had noticed him because of the light screen incident, or was the Super Soldier Squad carrying out some secret mission? As he thought about this, images of the powerful warriors of the Super Soldier Squad flashed through his mind, and a sense of pressure welled up in his heart.

Yunming didn't panic; he knew that simply running away wasn't the solution.

A slight smile played on his lips as he made a silent decision: "Since I can't avoid it, I'll face it."

He slammed on the gas, and the car shot off like an arrow toward a remote suburb.

All the way, the black car stayed close behind Yunming's car, showing no sign of letting up.

Yunming looked at the black car in the rearview mirror and began to consider his next course of action.

He knew that he was about to face a tough battle.

Finally, Yunming arrived at a deserted place on the outskirts of the city.

He stopped the car, slowly got out, and stood quietly beside it, waiting for the black car to arrive.

The moonlight shone on him, outlining his resolute features.

A black car slowly pulled up a short distance away, the door opened, and several people in black uniforms got out.

The leader was a tall man who looked at Yun Ming with a cold gaze and said, "You are Yun Ming?"

Yunming looked directly into the other person's eyes without fear and replied, "That's right, that's me."

Who are you people? Why are you following me?

The man did not answer Yunming's question directly, but instead asked, "What is your connection to the light screen incident?"

Yunming's heart tightened, but he remained calm on the surface and said, "I'm just an ordinary person. What could I possibly have to do with that incident? Just because my face resembles the person on the screen?"

At this moment, a young team member couldn't help but say, "Stop pretending, there's no such thing as a coincidence!"

Yunming sneered and said, "There are plenty of coincidences."

"If you have no evidence, isn't it going too far to follow me based on such unfounded speculation?"

The man in the lead frowned and said, "We're just carrying out a mission."

The incident involving the light screen is of great importance; we cannot overlook any possible clues.

Yunming looked at him and said, "I understand that you are carrying out a mission, but your unfounded suspicion of me is causing me trouble."

After a moment of silence, the man said, "We can investigate this thoroughly, as long as you cooperate."

Yunming thought for a moment and said, "I can cooperate, but you have to identify yourselves first."

The man hesitated for a moment before saying, "We are an official special operations team, responsible for investigating unusual events related to the Super God Academy."

Yunming was startled; he hadn't expected that he was actually being watched by the authorities.

But he quickly regained his composure and said, "In that case, how do you intend to investigate?"

The man said, "We need you to come back to headquarters with us for a detailed questioning and examination."

Yunming hesitated. Going back might involve many unknown risks, but there didn't seem to be a better option at the moment.

Just as he was thinking, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the sky, and a figure descended from the sky.

Upon closer inspection, everyone realized it was Qi Lin from the Super Soldier Squad.

Qi Lin looked at everyone and said, "What are you all doing?"

The man in the lead said, "Qilin, we are on a mission to investigate this suspect who is connected to the light screen incident."

Qi Lin looked at Yun Ming and said, "I don't think things are that simple."

I investigated Yunming before; he didn't exhibit any unusual behavior.

The man said, "But his appearance is too similar to the protagonist on the screen, and that cannot be ignored."

Qi Lin said, "Similarity does not mean that he is the person involved in the incident."

Your hasty action might alert the enemy.

Yunming felt grateful when he heard Qilin speak up for him.

He said, "I really have nothing to do with this incident, and I don't want to get involved in these troubles."

Qi Lin looked at Yun Ming and said, "I believe you."

But since things have already come to this point, you'd better come with us and explain things clearly.

Don't worry, I'll keep you safe.

Yunming thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go with you."

But I hope you can clear my name as soon as possible.

So, Yunming followed Qilin and the official special operations team into the car, which headed towards headquarters.

Inside the car, Yunming remained uneasy.

He didn't know what awaited him, but he secretly resolved to find a way to get rid of this trouble and return to his peaceful life.

The car drove through the night, and the scenery outside the window kept receding.

Yunming looked out the window, his mind filled with thoughts.

He recalled his ordinary life, those carefree days seeming like a long time ago.

Now, because of this inexplicable incident involving a light screen, he has been drawn into a world full of unknowns and dangers.

Soon, the car arrived at headquarters.

Yunming was led to a room, which was dimly lit and had a depressing atmosphere.

The official special operations team began questioning him, one question after another, as if they wanted to dig up every detail of his past.

Have you encountered any strange people or things recently?

Do you know any secrets about the Super God Academy?

Yunming patiently answered each question, as this was the only way to clear his name as quickly as possible.

Qi Lin listened quietly from the side, occasionally offering her own opinions and helping Yun Ming clarify some points that were prone to misunderstanding.

After lengthy questioning and investigation, the official special task force found no evidence that Yunming was directly related to the Guangping incident.

Although somewhat unwilling, they had no choice but to let Yunming go for the time being.

Yunming walked out of the headquarters, took a deep breath of fresh air, and finally felt a huge weight lifted from his heart.

Qi Lin followed behind him and said, "Although you're safe for now, you still need to be careful."

The truth behind the "light screen" incident may be far more complex than we imagine; someone might even target you because of your appearance.

Yunming looked at Qilin gratefully and said, "Thank you, Qilin."

If it weren't for you, I might have been in real trouble this time.

Qi Lin smiled and said, "You're welcome. I just don't want to see innocent people being wronged."

However, if you encounter any trouble in the future, you can come to me.

Yunming nodded and said, "Okay, I will."

After saying goodbye to Qilin, Yunming walked home alone. The streets were exceptionally quiet at night, with only the sound of his footsteps echoing.

Yunming stood on the land of that unfamiliar planet, the sandstorm of his destination swirling beneath his feet.

His gaze appeared calm, but it concealed a wary undercurrent; his keen insight had detected something amiss.

A slight, mocking smile played on his lips. "It seems this trouble is bigger than I expected."

The intelligent assistant Xiaoxing beside him lit up with blue light on his wrist and emitted a synthesized electronic voice: "Master, unidentified vehicles have been detected approaching, number... three."

Yunming raised an eyebrow. "Three vehicles? Ha, you really think highly of me."

He crossed his arms and watched the cars gradually appear in the distance. The vehicles didn't try to hide; they just drove straight toward him.

"Xiao Xing, analyze the intention."

Yunming said softly.

Xiao Xing quickly processed the information and replied after a moment: "Judging from the trajectory and speed, the other party is very likely trying to lure you to a secluded place, and the possibility of a malicious attack cannot be ruled out."

Yunming stroked his chin. "They don't conceal their whereabouts, nor do they take the initiative to approach me. It seems they want to wait for me to make the first move."

"Hmph, I won't let you have your way."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the hillside.

The first car approached and stopped not far from Yunming.

The car door opened, and a burly man stepped out. He had a hideous scar on his face and looked extremely fierce.

"You are Yunming?"

The burly man asked in a gruff voice.

Yunming didn't even turn his head, continuing to walk forward. "What do you want from me?"

The burly man frowned, seemingly surprised by Yunming's composure. "Come with us. We have some questions for you."

Yun Ming sneered, "Do I look like the kind of person who would obediently go with you?"

Just then, the second car arrived, and a petite woman got out. She had sharp eyes and was playing with an exquisite dagger in her hand.

"Yunming, don't be stubborn and ask for trouble. We're not discussing this with you."

The woman said coldly.

Yun Ming stopped and turned around, a cold glint in his eyes. "Do you think you few can do anything to me?"

Just as the two sides were deadlocked, the third car slowly came to a stop.

A person wearing a black hood stepped out of the car; his figure was somewhat mysterious, and his face was obscured.

"Everyone, stand down."

The hooded man spoke softly, his voice low and hoarse.

The burly man and the woman exchanged a glance. Although they were unwilling, they obediently stepped aside.

The hooded man walked towards Yunming. "Yunming, we mean no harm. We just want to talk to you."

Yunming looked at him warily. "Talk? Under these circumstances, do you think I'd trust you?"

The hooded man slightly raised his head, revealing a pair of deep eyes. "I know you have some doubts about us, but we really are here for a common goal."

Yun Ming scoffed, "A common goal? Don't be ridiculous. Tell me, what exactly do you want?"

The hooded man was silent for a moment. "You should be aware of the unusual energy fluctuations that have recently appeared in the universe, right?"

Yun Ming frowned slightly. "I've heard a little about it. What does this have to do with you?"

“We suspect there is a huge conspiracy behind this, and you, Yunming, are the key to solving this mystery.”

"That's what the hooded man said seriously."

Yun Ming's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained impassive. "Me? I'm just an ordinary traveler. What crucial role could I possibly play?"

The hooded man seemed to see through his thoughts, "You possess special abilities, which are extremely rare in the universe."

We need your help to investigate this matter.

Before Yunming could answer, Xiaoxing suddenly sounded an alarm: "Master, there is a large amount of unidentified energy reaction around us, and it seems that more enemies are approaching."

Yunming's expression changed. "It seems our conversation will have to be temporarily suspended."

The hooded man also sensed the danger. "Let's deal with the immediate problem first, and then we'll talk."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of dark figures surged in from all directions. These figures were agile and carried various weapons.

The burly man brandished his giant axe, shouting, "Perfect timing! Let me show you what I'm capable of!"

Having said that, he rushed towards the shadowy figure.

The woman was not to be outdone; her dagger gleamed coldly as she swiftly dispatched several approaching shadowy figures.

Yunming stood still, his eyes calm.

He raised his hand, and a ball of energy gathered in his palm. "Since you want to play, then I'll play along."

After saying that, he threw the energy ball towards the group of shadowy figures.

The energy ball exploded amidst the shadowy figures, the powerful impact sending them flying.

The hooded man also joined the battle, his hands constantly changing hand seals, and mysterious beams of light shot out from his hands, causing the shadows to dissipate wherever they went.

The battle entered a white-hot stage, with both sides fighting back and forth and neither side giving in.

During the battle, Yunming gradually discovered that these shadowy figures seemed to have some kind of special connection; their actions were very coordinated, as if they were a single entity.

"Xiao Xing, analyze the structure and weaknesses of these shadowy figures."

Yunming said to Xiaoxing during a break in the battle.

Xiao Xing quickly analyzed, "Master, these shadowy figures are made of a special kind of energy. Their core is in their chests. As long as we destroy the core, we can eliminate them."

Yunming nodded, having made up his mind.

He flashed forward and rushed towards a dark figure.

The dark figure swung its weapon at him, but Yunming easily dodged it and then punched the figure in the chest.

With a muffled thud, a hole appeared in the shadowy figure's chest, and the entire figure vanished instantly.

Seeing this, the other shadowy figures surrounded Yunming.

Yunming remained calm and composed, his figure moving freely among the shadowy figures, each strike precisely destroying the core of the shadowy creatures.

Under the combined attack of Yunming and the others, the number of black shadows gradually decreased.

Finally, the last shadowy figure was eliminated, and the battlefield fell into a brief calm.

Yunming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the hooded man. "Now, we can have a proper talk."

The hooded man nodded. "Come with me. There are some things that are not convenient to say here."

Yunming hesitated for a moment, but still got into the car with the hooded man.

The car sped across the surface of the planet, heading in an unknown direction.

The atmosphere inside the car was somewhat oppressive.

Yunming broke the silence, "Who exactly are you? How do you know about my abilities?"

The hooded man removed his hood, revealing a weathered face. "My name is Nightshade, and I was once an adventurer just like you."

As for your abilities, there are no secrets in the universe that can be kept forever.

Yunming frowned. "Night Shadow? I think I've heard of you before."
