Chapter 6: Supernatural Phenomena

At this moment, Yang Jun suddenly felt that the other party might really be of Blue Masterpiece grade, or even a stronger Talent. Possibly, a very powerful type!

Otherwise, they wouldn't possess such confidence, such calmness.

If that were indeed the case, then their status and influence would be completely different from that of an ordinary Chosen One.

Yang Jun finally answered, "Currently, throughout the country, there are less than a thousand confirmed Chosen Ones. Across the whole world, there might not even be five thousand. How many do you think are not of White Talent?"

"That should be about ten or so." Shen Hao nodded and said straightforwardly, "I am a Talent that is not white."

His guess had been confirmed.

What's more, Yang Jun didn't know if this young man did it on purpose, mentioning "not white" instead of "blue."

Could it be that his Talent is of the Purple Epic grade?

That's a one in ten thousand probability!

The whole world might not even have one!

Yang Jun took a deep breath, looked at Shen Hao, and said gravely, "Can you prove it?"

He took a step back, his body surging with Golden Light as he adopted a defensive stance. The method of confirmation went without saying.

Shen Hao paused slightly.

The next moment, an almost tangible Suppression howled towards Yang Jun.

Boom!

A muffled thud, Yang Jun instantly knelt down, even lying flat on the ground, his eyes filled with utmost shock.

The surrounding soldiers were also startled and in disbelief.

In that instant, the young man before them seemed like an emperor wielding the power of life and death, an indescribable sense of awe enveloping their entire being. Even before Yang Jun could react, he had already prostrated himself on the ground, not daring to lift his head.

Fortunately, the Suppression lasted only for an instant and quickly dissipated.

But when Yang Jun, still pale, got up, he still instinctively avoided Shen Hao's gaze.

There was no need for doubt any longer.

His Talent was defensive, named "Golden Light." Although it was only of White grade, it was considered extremely powerful among the White grade; based on previous trials, it could resist any type of Attack, even those from a Spirit Talent.

With Golden Light shining, one remains unharmed!

However, he was powerless in the face of the other party.

Beyond the grade of Talent, he could think of no other explanation.

Moreover, he even had a nagging suspicion that the other's Talent grade wasn't just that of a Blue Elite! At least, the few other Blue Talent owners in the country had never given him such a sense of oppression, the complete absence of resistance!

"Please allow me to report this to my superiors first," Yang Jun said with a heavy voice.

"Alright," Shen Hao nodded, paused, and then spoke quite seriously, "I'm not being unreasonable in wanting to clear my sister's name. I just want to understand the truth of the matter. I hope you can understand my feelings."

"I understand."

Yang Jun let out a silent sigh of relief.

But he felt somewhat helpless inside.

Blue Talent, ah!

In this current era, powerful Chosen Ones indeed hold an extraordinary status, and the entire world is actively gathering them.

Not to mention that if the person right before us wished to take his family and flee the country, every other nation in the world would go all out to assist!

This sort of influence is something that even the higher-ups must handle with extreme caution.

It can only be said that after the emergence of planet traversal, the Chosen Ones with their great power, and the unknown aspects of the Chosen Ones' panel... a series of changes had occurred, and the world's order and rules were inevitably altered.

And as Shen Hao watched Yang Jun hurry off, he gained a deeper understanding of the significance of Mythical Talent.

That's right, he had not used his full strength just now.

It could only be considered a minor test of his abilities.

Originally, he thought that the main use of this Mythical Talent would be in the first and second abilities, but unexpectedly, this third ability was also not to be underestimated.

However, thinking about Qiuyue's situation, Shen Hao still found it tricky.

This had nothing to do with the strength of his abilities; deep down, he truly did not want to rely on his power to flout the law and disrupt the order—this would definitely not be conducive to combating the Civilization Trial.

Yang Jun came back pretty quickly.

"The higher-ups place great importance on Mr. Shen and have authorized lifting all restrictions on classified information," Yang Jun said, now noticeably more relaxed, "Furthermore, if you are willing to vouch for her, you can take your sister away first. Of course, this would only count as bail pending trial. We will conduct a certain level of monitoring and strictly limit her movements."

"I'll learn more about it first," Shen Hao shook his head.

For such a major criminal case, bail pending trial was clearly not according to the rules.

He still did not believe that Qiuyue would do such a thing for no reason.

Yang Jun didn't say anything more; he naturally hoped that the powerful Chosen One before him would respect the law.

He handed over the tablet directly.

"In this incident, every other aspect seems just like a common criminal case, but there is one difference—the girl who was killed rapidly lost all the blood in her body after death. It was a complete loss, other than some splattered around the surrounding area, none was found inside her body."

"Completely gone?" Shen Hao was stunned.

"Completely gone, as if it evaporated," Yang Jun said gravely, "In any case, it's not something that fits within our current scientific understanding."

Shen Hao looked at the images on the tablet.

They were horrifying.

From her clothes, it was clear that she was a young girl in the bloom of youth, but her current state was even more exaggerated than that of a mummy thousands of years old, as if she had been desiccated by some incredibly cruel method.

Even the blood in the capillaries beneath her skin was completely gone.

However, Shen Hao remained unmoved, only feeling a chill in his heart.

Under the current circumstances, any event beyond comprehension could potentially be related to the "Trial"!

And with his sister involved, he had no choice but to take it seriously.

"Just this alone would not suffice for you to take the action of locking down the entire school," Shen Hao looked up at Yang Jun.

"In the past half a month, there have been several cases where the victims lost all their blood after death, showing a certain clustering effect. There was even a car accident case where a family of six died and all showed the same condition, including a four-year-old child," Yang Jun explained, "We suspect that a certain contagious virus is causing this phenomenon, and this is the first time it has appeared in a densely populated school area—although we haven't yet seen the threat posed by this phenomenon, such unprecedented supernatural events may well be related to the planet's traversal, as well as the appearance of us Chosen Ones, and we cannot ignore it."

"A virus?" Shen Hao pondered.

It was indeed possible that the virus could be one of the Trials.

According to the information transmitted to him by the cheat collection, the initial Trials would not be too strong, but any Trial could potentially extinguish an entire civilization!
