Sakura wiped the sweat from his forehead with a little nervousness. After reporting the results of this round of research, he carefully handed the experimental data in his hands to the old man sitting on the sofa in front of him. At the same time, he tried to choose his words and carefully put forward his requirements.

Because the experiments were wasting too quickly, Sakura had proposed to her superiors more than once to increase the number of experimental subjects. However, as there had been no results so far and the only result came from another laboratory, Sakura was always unsure.

But this time I have produced some excellent results, so the invitation to increase the number of experimental subjects should be... no problem, right?

"So, we now have a stable and controllable method to cultivate people with super powers?"

The old man sitting on the sofa did not directly agree to Sakura's request. He took the experimental data handed over by Sakura, and after a quick glance at it, the old man put the data aside and asked.

Sakura immediately straightened up.

"Yes! Sir, although from the current measurement data, the level of the second-time infected is slightly inferior to that of the first-stage knights in all aspects, but as long as there are enough experimental questions, we can produce them in unlimited quantities!"

"Oh, slightly inferior? So, this second-time infected person is not as good as the first-stage knight?"

The old man's voice was still calm and peaceful, but the question he asked made Sakura stiffen for a moment - then, after taking a slight breath, Sakura continued to answer loudly.

"Yes! Judging from the data comparison, the physical data of the second-time infected person is only about 55%-75% of the first-stage knight. But with the special mutation characteristics, I don't think the second-time infected person is no match for the first-stage knight!"

"And the secondary infected people have the advantage in numbers! As long as..."

"Okay, I get it - Sakura, right? Your director mentioned you to me. Young people are good and very capable... I am very satisfied with your research results. We will all be satisfied, so you will not be short of experimental subjects - keep up the good work. Your director is already quite old and may not be able to adapt to the arrival of the new era. But you, I think you have adapted very well..."

Waving his hand, interrupting Sakura's report, the old man's voice became more pleasant.

"You will have another 500 test subjects. Use your best efforts to leave your name in this new era..."

081. The kite takes off

New era - what kind of era can be called a new era?

Is this an era where everyone can become better?

Or is it a beautiful era with no more wars and no more unrest?

Staring blankly at the "invitation" in his hand, Kenta Kishibe gently stroked the embossed gold-plated letters on it with his fingertips, feeling a little confused for a moment.

His superpowers were finally revealed.

That's right. When the earthquake broke out, Kenta Kishibe couldn't bear to watch the fellow villager who brought him out of his hometown and found him a job being hit by a collapsed container. So at the critical moment, Kenta Kishibe revealed his identity as a knight.

Of course, Kenta Kishibe did not go out to participate in the rescue afterwards, but he and other seniors at the workstation collected the scattered goods and waited for official rescue, but...

In fact, the moment the knight's belt was exposed, Kenta Kishibe already knew that the news would eventually leak out - there were not many people in the workstation, but there were seven of them. Except for himself and his trusted fellow countryman, the other five people had no obligation to keep the secret for Kenta Kishibe.

What Kenta Kishibe didn't expect was that he neither waited for those self-media that would seize on any information about the supernatural, nor waited for the recruitment of the Supernatural Department. Instead, he waited for... an invitation letter.

Or in other words, it was a ticket - a ticket to the "new era".

Kenta didn't know what the so-called "new era" was, nor did he know who handed him this "ticket". But when his grandmother in the countryside called and said that a group of government officials had listed her as a person in special care, saying that her grandson Kenta Kishibe had made extraordinary contributions to the country, Kenta had no choice.

The person who delivered the boat ticket held the kite's string tightly. A kite like Kenta had no choice but to be tied up and either fly high or fall to the ground.

but......

I am not completely helpless.

After staring at the ticket in his hand for a long time, Kenta finally exhaled deeply, then stood up, put the ticket in his hand on the table beside him, and then began to grope in his trouser pocket - soon, Kenta's fingertips touched a hard, disc-shaped object.

This thing was given to him by the mysterious man in black robe.

At first, Kenta didn't know what this thing was, but later in the live TV broadcast of the post-disaster crusade, Kenta saw the plug-in that the Ares Knight inserted into the belt, and finally the plug-in that the Ares Knight threw to the Bard Knight.

The moment he saw the plug-in, Kenta recognized it almost instantly. There was no doubt that what the mysterious man in black robe gave him was a belt plug-in!

It needs to be explained here that it is an almost universally recognized fact that knights are divided into three stages - there are currently two known three-stage knights, namely the God of War Knight and the Knight of Judgment. The former defeated the monster in a devastating manner in the post-disaster crusade, and the latter is currently the only knight who has a record of easily killing a knight head-on!

There are four knights in the second stage, namely the female knight with a helmet, the Wind Knight, the Wild Knight and the Song Knight - the Song Knight is a bard, but because the name is four words and does not rhyme with the other knights, netizens simply call him the Song Knight...

In addition, some people think that as the first knight to fight against the Knight of Conviction, the Police Knight may have already become a second-stage knight. Also, the unnamed knight following the Knight of Conviction is likely to be in the second stage as well.

The remaining many knights are all first-stage knights.

In fact, after Super Power was fully revealed to the public, the "Super Power" department also issued some "definitions" for people with super powers in order to break the public's blind worship and even belief in them. In the explanation, it was said that the first-stage knight surpassed humans in all aspects, with a physique that could smash concrete walls, a speed comparable to a motorcycle, and astonishing strength. The second-stage knight, on this basis, extended an even more powerful trait.

As for the third-stage knight, the Super Power Division 1 has not announced it, probably due to confidentiality requirements or something - but many people speculate, based on the performances of the Ares Knight and the Conviction Knight, that the third-stage knight has upgraded all other abilities to the same level as this trait, and awakened to the existence of supernatural powers.

But there is also a "fact" recognized by most people, that is, the belt plug-in is very likely a prop that can enable the knight to fight across levels and burst out combat power far beyond his own stage!

Just like when the God of War Knight used the plug-in, he summoned an iron fist out of thin air that could severely damage the monster with one blow. It was a very powerful and magical method!

But now there are only two plug-ins exposed to everyone's view. One is in the hands of the powerful third-stage knight Ares Knight, and the other was given to Ge Qi by Ares Knight, and then given to Super Power Unit 1 by Ge Qi - there is no doubt that both Ares Knight and Super Power Unit 1 are existences that can make people give up the idea.

But if people knew that a weak first-stage knight had a plug-in in his hand...

Kenta could almost imagine how much of a stir it would cause if the news that he owned the plug-in were to be exposed.

A plug-in is enough to attract such huge attention, so what kind of person is the mysterious man in black who gave him a plug-in so easily?

At the same time, the address that the black-robed man gave me, saying that I could go there for help...

Who could it be? If I ask for help, will he really help me?

His finger rested on the plug-in for a moment, and when it touched the piece of paper that was in his pocket together with the plug-in, Kenta closed his eyes and shook his head gently.

No matter what, the only method I can think of that might help me is that mysterious address.

Of course, Kenta's request for help was not actually because of himself - he was already a kite with a string tied to it, and the person pulling the string was kind to him and took extra care of his grandmother, which was enough to make Kenta willing to be controlled.

What Kenta is actually worried about is what will happen after his death.

When Kenta was a child, his grandmother told him a story about an old woman who burst into tears when she saw the general personally sucking out the pus from the wound of her grandson.

A neighbor asked the old woman, why are you crying so hard when the general favors your grandson so much, is it because of joy?

The old woman replied, my husband and my son had both received courtesy from the general, so in order to repay this courtesy, they fought for the general without hesitation and eventually died in battle. Now that the general treats my grandson like this, I am sure that my grandson will also fight to the death to repay the general. I am afraid that I will soon lose my grandson.

There is a saying in the suzerain country that if you want to ask for something from others, you should first give it to them. Kenta thinks that the reason why he deserves to be treated like this can only be because of his status as a superhuman, so...

He would fight to the death for that unknown force, but after he dies, Kenta hopes that there will be someone who can help him send some money and a letter to his grandmother every once in a while and conceal the news of his death until his grandmother dies.

This was a long and boring process for someone with no emotional connection, and Kenta wasn't sure if the person at the mysterious address would agree, but he could only give it a try.

Fortunately, Kenta was familiar with that address - it was within his own delivery range.

He withdrew his fingers from the plug-in, and then stroked the two belts around his waist. Kenta reached out and smoothed his frown, regaining his optimistic look - then, he picked up a letter of resignation from the table next to him, straightened up with all his strength, and walked towards the leader's office of the workstation.

First quit your job, then... go to that address and give it a try...

082. Show off your acting skills again

When Su Su returned home, it was already evening the next day after finishing the experiment.

I worked on experiments in the first half of the night before, and slept on the bed in the laboratory in the second half. When I got up the next day, I washed my face and rinsed my mouth in the laboratory sink, found a white coat to wipe my face, and went straight to the company.

To the point that Su Su felt for a moment that his plan was making him treat himself like a beast of burden...

You clearly wanted to find someone to be your slave, but how come you ended up becoming the slave?

Fortunately, Su Su can still take a nap in the company. He puts a document on the table and lies behind the computer monitor. Even if the office is semi-transparent, the employees outside can't tell that Su Su is actually sleeping...

In this way, until the end of get off work time, Su Su finally recovered his energy. After get off work, Su Su originally planned to go directly to the laboratory, but after thinking about it, Su Su decided to go home first.

I have to go back and get some clean clothes and toiletries - and also get bedding for Shiratori Yuei.

Because there is a tentacle monster tied up in the laboratory, Su Su will probably have to live in the laboratory for the next few days to facilitate his research on the various characteristics of the mutated monster. Although last night's experiment failed, Su Su has thought of many other research directions.

Moreover, Su Su had a vague feeling that there would be many such alienated weirdos in the future...

After all, the existence of Yuei Shiratori proves that the "flesh and blood infection" experiment has the possibility of success, as well as the possibility of escape. Who knows if the next batch of monsters, or even alienated monsters, will escape?

Admittedly, the strength of these alienated monsters is not worth mentioning to Su Su, they are only at the first level, but Su Su's identity is just an ordinary person...

Not to mention that I am indeed curious about mutants, if I can get a lot of information about them, my identity will become more vivid and realistic.

As for Shiratori Yuei...

Although he showed obvious discomfort with Su Su's research, fortunately, Shiratori Yuerong was a person who received higher education before going to prison. He knew that one should not throw the baby out with the bathwater. He would not resist all experiments just because he had undergone human experiments. Therefore, Shiratori Yuerong is currently serving as Su Su's assistant, and is also waiting for his other three companions.

Su Su also promised to provide food and accommodation during this period. Food, needless to say, was easily solved, and accommodation would be in the underground laboratory. Last night, Su Su slept in his bed, and Shiratori Yourong went out to find a pile of cardboard, then spread a layer of clothes on it and slept on the floor.

After all, on the surface, Shiratori Yuerong is a strong knight, while Su Su is just a "weak" ordinary human.

But speaking of it, these clothes were specially placed there by Su Su to decorate the laboratory with a sense of life, and they turned out to have an unexpected use...

......

Considering that there are a lot of things he needs to carry this time, Su Su plans to be more open and drive there directly, so that he can bring all the things in a way that matches his identity as an ordinary human being.

As for exposure...this identity is meant to be exposed.

The identity of a scholar and researcher who is not feared is exactly what Su Su wants - now the number and publicity of the knights far exceed Su Su's expectations, so Su Su's identity in reality should also be changed appropriately.

No plan is perfect, but an improvisational plan always works.

However, what surprised Su Su was that when he parked his car downstairs and was about to go upstairs to get something, he unexpectedly found a familiar figure wandering downstairs.

One-armed, with the aura of a knight, that is...

Pretending to be nothing, he passed by the other person and the moment he saw the other person's face, Su Su immediately confirmed the other person's identity.

Kenta Kishibe!

Su Su had given Kenta Kishibe his address a long time ago, so he was not surprised that Kenta Kishibe knew this place. But what surprised Su Su was...what happened that made Kenta, a kid who didn't want to get involved in anything irrelevant and even refused to use the knight's belt to make his life more convenient, come to him for help?

Could it be that his identity as a knight was exposed and he then received some kind of coercion?

After passing Kenta Kishibe, Su Su continued walking towards the corridor entrance, thinking silently in his heart. Then, just when Su Su reached the corridor entrance and was about to enter, suddenly Kenta Kishibe behind him seemed to have confirmed something, and called out to Su Su in a slightly restrained but polite voice.

"Hello! Sir in front, sorry to bother you for a moment..."

He walked quickly to Su Su, looked at Su Su who was standing still and then looked at him with a puzzled expression. Kenta Kishibe bowed deeply, then reached into his pocket and took out the note.

"Excuse me, do you know the resident of this address? I... was asked by one of his friends to deliver some things, but the resident has not been at home..."

"I am--you...Look at the handwriting. Was it Zero who asked you to come?"

With his mind racing, Su Su quickly recalled all the details he had rehearsed from memory, and then...

In Kenta Kishibe's vision, the man's gaze quickly became sharp the moment he swept across the paper, and then he looked him up and down meaningfully. The man raised his chin slightly, with a hint of doubt in his tone.

"Why doesn't he come in person? Is he afraid to come and see me?"

"Uh... So you are... Sorry? I... I am not the one you mentioned... I just... A mysterious man in black robe told me that I could come here for help and gave me a... a... prop. I didn't know you..."

Hearing Su Su's questioning, Kenta Kishibe was stunned for a moment, and then felt a little embarrassed. Although he had tried hard to imagine the scene of himself meeting the owner of this address, when he actually faced it, the situation still surprised Kenta Kishibe.

Fortunately, perhaps because he felt a little soft-hearted when he saw Kenta Kishibe's hesitation, the seemingly tough man in front of him quickly relented. Then, after glancing at Kenta Kishibe again, the man's tone softened a little, and then he asked again.

"So, you don't know his identity either? Hum... Then you are here for help, right? In other words, you are also... that one?"

As he spoke, Su Su stretched out his hand and made a belt gesture at his waist. Then, Kenta Kishibe, who was relieved, quickly nodded vigorously.

Phew... Fortunately, although the way we met was a little unexpected, fortunately, this gentleman also seems to be a kind-hearted person...

"Yeah, as expected...Okay, I get it. If your business is not urgent, then just wait in my car first. I don't know what the business is, but the trouble you guys are causing...Ah..."

He pointed at his car, then pressed the key to unlock it, motioning Kenta Kishibe to wait in the car first. Su Su looked at his watch, then turned to look at Kenta Kishibe.

"Wait for me for ten minutes, and then we'll talk. I'll be down soon. Oh, and give me that note. Since it has already led you to me, it's useless now."

"It's better to burn this kind of thing, otherwise God knows how much trouble it will bring me..."

083. Living together?

In fact, as early as when he gave the address to Kenta Kishibe, Su Su had already prepared a complete set of identity settings and dialogue scenarios for himself.

As for creating a character, Su Su is very familiar with it. By the way, he can also give play to his dream of becoming a writer...

The reason why I gave the address to Kenta was because I thought he was a good kid. Although Su Su was not the kind of person who was always passionate about life, this did not prevent Su Su from liking such people, so he helped them if he liked them. Secondly...

In fact, it can be regarded as a small backup plan. What if it comes in handy someday?

What Su Su didn't expect was that this inconspicuous foreshadowing would take effect so quickly...

He took out his key, opened the door, then went to the bathroom to pack all the toiletries into a bag, then pulled out a set of spare mattresses from the bedroom closet. Through the bedroom window, he glanced at Kenta Kishibe who had already gotten into his car downstairs and was staying there obediently without running around. Su Su thought about it and decided to turn around and buy a set of toiletries for Yui Shiratori later.

Otherwise, the assistant is always sloppy, and Su Su is not happy to see him...

By the way, it can also be verified whether Kenta Kishibe is being followed by anyone.

Su Su didn't know what kind of trouble Kenta Kishibe had brought to him, but out of caution, it would be better to go around and see if there was any trouble following him.

The location of the underground laboratory cannot be known to too many people for the time being.

But of course, Kenta Kishibe must be brought to the laboratory. By the way, Kenta Kishibe can also be used to "reveal" the identity of the weird knight Yuei Shiratori.
