Chapter 001: Sons and Daughters_3

No matter how many times he looked, Ke Mingye always felt that the scene before him was too eerie, too absurd—an ostensibly "superhero" father, a mother with the true identity of an "alien spy," an older sister who secretly played the role of "Magic Girl," and a younger sister who seemed to have albinism but was actually a "vampire."

Put them anywhere, and you'd have an exceptional family, outdoing even Mr. and Mrs. Smith. But most crucially, apart from his alien mother, the rest of the family seemed to be unaware of each other's true identities.

So, what sins have I committed to deserve this...

Ke Mingye heaved a deep sigh in his heart.

Three days ago, Ke Mingye had been reading in the library, and in the time it took to nod off with his book closed, he had crossed over.

In this world teeming with Superpower Users, mutants, and other superhumans without number, he replaced the soul of the unfortunate man with the same name and surname, becoming a member of this Chinese middle-class family.

According to his memories, Ke Mingye's family consisted of nine people—two parents and seven children.

It might seem bizarre, but it was quite normal in this parallel world. According to the policies of this parallel universe, Huaxia families could have up to four children. When planning for the fourth child, they happened to conceive the twins Bai Zini and Bai Ziling, and thus they were born.

At that time, the family already had five children.

Then the mother, disguised as an alien, proposed to adopt a child.

Referencing policy, a family with children could only adopt one child, so they adopted "Ke Mingye," the predecessor of this body. At that point, the family already had six children.

Subsequently, in the orphanage, the mother felt particularly sorry for a frail and sickly child whom no one would adopt.

According to policy, if one wishes to adopt a child with such special circumstances, it can be considered on a case-by-case basis. So, she successfully adopted this child and named him "Ke Yongzhu."

Thus, up to that point, the family had a total of seven children.

Ke Mingye ranked fourth, and due to his neither high nor low position, he often got bullied.

But after more than a decade, life had been fairly warm and ordinary. Although his father was often as invisible as a ghost, busy with work, his mother had still raised seven children from infancy to adulthood.

Having referenced these memories in his brain, Ke Mingye, upon first arriving through the cross-over, really thought it was the same ordinary and happy family from over a decade ago.

But the player panel in Ke Mingye's eyes didn't tell him that. It even slapped his predecessor in the face, saying you're an idiot for not realizing that your home is full of monsters.

It wasn't until Ke Mingye personally witnessed his family members and saw the panels above each person's head displaying extremely eerie data—alien, superhero, Divine Communicator, dragonkin, Magic Girl...

Only then did he know that the predecessor of this body had been deceived by this family of superhumans for sixteen whole years.

Yes, after sixteen years of living together, this body's former occupant had not realized that his seemingly ordinary family members each had their secret identities.

Keep in mind that according to Huaxia's policy, regardless of the family members, everyone must undergo "Superhuman Gene Testing" twice a year to avoid genetic mutations.

If one is tested to possess extraordinary genes, then they must be separated from ordinary people, attending different schools or doing different jobs.

Each year, the results of Ke Mingye's family's biannual tests were very consistent. Without exception, every time, the entire family was normal, containing not a trace of extraordinary genes within their bodies.

Perhaps also for this reason, aside from the mother who was an alien, other members believed that apart from themselves, there were no other superhumans in the family.

However, whether each member is as peculiar as that still remains to be seen.

After all, Ke Mingye had only been on this side for three days, having only met his father, mother, older sister, younger brother, and two younger sisters. As for the eldest brother and the second brother, he had yet to meet them—because they usually studied at universities in other places and only returned home for the holidays, truly modern-day college students.

Summer vacation was approaching fast, so in a few days they would be home, and then Ke Mingye would be able to fully grasp the whole picture of this family.

To be honest, he was already under enough psychological pressure.

Despite not harboring much hope, he still earnestly wished that the elder brother and second brother who would soon be returning home would, like him, be ordinary people rather than some Magic Girl, superhero, vampire, alien, or the like.

Thinking this, Ke Mingye suddenly paused, took a spoonful of hot rice, and mocked himself in his mind.

"That being said, I'm actually not an ordinary person right now... I'm a player after all. But what exactly this system wants from me, I still have no clue after three days."

Just then, a panel of black and red suddenly popped up in front of him, almost occupying his entire pupil, sending a slight shiver through his body.

On the panel, text formed by flowing blood pulsated.

The text continued to update.

[Having survived three days in the parallel world, the player's ultimate mission has been updated—Exterminate all superhumans.]

[Please do your utmost, by any and all means, to exterminate all the superhumans of this parallel world, until only ordinary people remain on Earth.]

[Mission deadline: 365 days.]
