I became Superman

what?

If there are no stronger people, shouldn't we be able to do whatever we want? Why are we hesitant instead?

Su Cheng did not understand Zhou Ming's thoughts.

Zhou Ming didn't intend to explain. He looked at Su Cheng's foot and found that the injury wasn't as serious as he had imagined.

The girl reacted quickly; she jumped in, sensed something was wrong, and immediately jumped out.

Zhou Ming waved his hand and said, "Goodbye."

Su Cheng asked urgently, "Um... could I leave you my contact information?"

Seeing Zhou Ming looking at her questioningly, Su Cheng explained, "I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to...make friends?"

She felt that what she said was very stupid, but she couldn't find any other excuse.

To her surprise, the other party agreed to her request.

As Su Cheng scanned the QR code Zhou Ming handed her, she felt a strong sense of unease.

She had thought that such a person was someone aloof and untouched by the world, but it turns out he also had a social network like an ordinary person.

After adding each other as friends, Su Cheng pointed to the hotel rooftop and asked, "Is everything alright over there?"

After all, someone died, and the saint's body is still burning in the brazier. Won't he get into trouble?

Zhou Ming shook his head and said, "It's okay, I doubt the police will get involved."

That so-called saint is an anomaly, yet he does such things openly and without any concealment. How could the center of the anomaly not know?

The center of the outlier knew about it, but did nothing to stop it.

Zhou Ming understood that those people probably had official connections.

After saying goodbye to Su Cheng, Zhou Ming returned home late at night.

Nothing should disturb him so he can get a good night's sleep.

He extinguished his surface consciousness as if turning off a light, and fell into a deep sleep.

Zhou Ming got up around 7 a.m. and knocked on Yi Jiahui's door.

"Hey, senior's here."

Yi Jiahui opened the door with a pleasant surprise.

Zhou Ming said, "Do you know anyone at the Alien Center? I'm planning to go there to ask about some things. Would you like to come along?"

"I want to go!"

Kusaka called out from inside the room, "I haven't been back to see everyone in so long."

She's still lying in bed.

After hastily installing the mechanical legs and getting ready with Yi Jiahui's help, the three of them headed to the alien center together.

Kusaka's arrival caused a stir in the center of the aliens.

"Sakura-chan is here! Why haven't you come back to visit for so long?"

"Is life convenient? Have the guys at the pet shelter bullied you?"

"Are your legs still working well? I'll take them off and give them some pampering later."

Kusaka handled everything with practiced ease.

As the three of them approached the door of the director's office at the Alien Center, the door opened and Huang Hong walked out.

Zhou Ming then learned that after Jian Hao was transferred to the hunting sequence, Huang Hong took over as the head of the Alien Center.

Zhou Ming laughed and said, "From inspector at headquarters to director of the Center for the Abnormal, is that a promotion or a demotion?"

Huang Hong laughed and said, "Whether I'm promoted or demoted, it's all about protecting the peace of this region."

"Moreover, my husband and I have a past relationship, so having me here makes it easier to communicate with him when something happens."

Zhou Ming knew that this was probably the real reason why Huang Hong took over.

If a deity resides in a city, regardless of his attitude, he will immediately become the city's core, and the affairs of the city center will naturally revolve around the deity.

Zhou Ming pulled a flyer out of his pocket and said, "Perfect timing, that's exactly what I came here to discuss with you today."

When Huang Hong saw the flyer that read: "The One True God, Salvation in the End Times," his expression immediately changed.

He waved his hand, dismissing his subordinates who were surrounding him, and said, "Mr. Zhou, would you mind coming inside to discuss this further?"

Zhou Ming nodded, turned around and smiled, "Cat, Grass Cherry, go find your friends to play."

Yi Jiahui and Cao Ying tactfully walked away.

Zhou Ming walked into Huang Hong's office and said with a smile, "It seems you did know after all."

"Yesterday I went to their lecture, where there was a so-called saint who was an anomaly, openly displaying his abilities in front of ordinary people, and as far as I know, their activities have already caused the deaths of ordinary people."

"You're just turning a blind eye."

Huang Hong said with a wry smile, "It's not that we don't want to get involved, but we have orders from above, and we can't control their activities."

"above?"

Zhou Ming asked, "Which upstairs, Minglou?"

Huang Hong shook his head and said, "An order from the headquarters in Shenjing."

Zhou Ming laughed and said, "That's strange. The headquarters in Shenjing is protecting a bunch of charlatans. What are their identities?"

Huang Hong shook his head and said, "This is not something a nobody like me could know. I've only heard that things are very complicated."

The water is very deep…

How deep can it be?

Zhou Mingdao asked, "Can you contact Minglou?"

Minglou doesn't even have a cell phone, mainly because the cell tower can't reach his little world.

However, the branch's alien center can of course directly contact the Southwest Headquarters and then be manually transferred to Minglou.

Without saying much, Huang Hong immediately began contacting the Westgate headquarters.

When the people at the Southwest Headquarters learned that Zhou Ming wanted to speak with Ming Lou, they did not hesitate at all. However, by the time Ming Lou answered, two minutes had already passed.

For those two minutes, Zhou Ming waited idly on the side, thinking to himself that it wouldn't actually take him more than half a minute to fly from Chengdu to the Southwest Headquarters.

This is still taking into account that the speed should not be too fast within the atmosphere.

But he still inexplicably felt that making phone calls was more convenient.

These are all the effects of deeply ingrained human habits on him, or rather, the effects of human nature on him.

But that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Hearing Minglou's familiar voice coming from the other end, Zhou Ming took the receiver.

"What did they do to offend you?"

Minglou said helplessly.

Zhou Ming laughed and said, "It's not that they offended me, it's just that I don't like them. From what you've said, it seems you know their background."

Ming Lou said, "I know a little about them. These people are very influential in the court and have intricate connections with many forces..."

Zhou Ming interrupted him, saying, "Why are you telling me all this? I just don't like these people, and I have no interest in implicating others. Do you want to tell me all those entrenched forces so I can go after them one by one?"

"Aren't you being a bit too extreme?"

"Bullshit!"

Minglou was both amused and exasperated, and said, "I mean, why do you have to get involved in this mess? Even if you're not afraid, you'll still face a lot of trouble later."

Trouble... isn't that a good thing?

Zhou Ming said, "Stop talking nonsense, tell me who they are?"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade them, Minglou could only sigh and say, "These people come from a force called the New Heavenly Court, and the leader of this force is the Great Heavenly Venerable."

The New Heavenly Court... The Great Heavenly Venerable...

Zhou Ming was somewhat taken aback.

Is it really necessary to be so arrogant?

He asked, "Who is the Great Celestial Venerable?"

Minglou said, "The Great Celestial Venerable is also an anomaly, an anomaly who can use the false to cultivate the true. He can use human beliefs to achieve even the wildest fantasies of his own."
