Chapter 97: Chapter 86: Black Swan Event, Invisibility + Kidney Strike = Assassin (Two in One)_2

The residents in the alley were alarmed by the noise. They opened their windows to see a strange human with bright silver skin, and a fierce, two-and-a-half-meter-tall transformer.

"Excuse us!"

With a bang, doors and windows were shut tight.

"Catch him first, then eat him slowly." freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Cheng Ze ignored the innocent bystanders who happened to be there. He issued orders to the transformer and then walked in another direction.

As he passed by, televisions, radios, refrigerators... all electronic devices seemed to come to life, jumping out of houses, breaking free from control, and forming a rather imposing iron legion.

...

...

"Received an emergency call. What the hell does ’his fridge grew legs and ran away’ mean? I’m here trying to save Dangyang East Suburb, and you bother me with this nonsense?"

Chen Yun cursed while steering the wheel:

"The Inspection Department isn’t the police station. We’re not responsible for... electronic signals exceeding peak values continuously on Old Factory Street? Northwest direction? It matches the target I’m tracking.

Dammit, the Electronic Demon is spreading the virus!"

Chen Yun’s face turned pale. This crisis erupted out of nowhere, catching the Inspection Department off guard.

"What’s the status on the Urban Circle?"

She asked in a deep voice.

On the other end of the phone, a team member was reporting:

"Preliminary assessment indicates a ’Black Swan Event.’ They might implement a ’Red Alert Plan’."

A Black Swan Event is an unforeseeable event that triggers a chain reaction, causing significant negative impact despite its low probability.

Chen Yun couldn’t help but feel irony. The Inspection Department had disrupted plots by Esoteric Buddhism members seeking the favor of their deity. They had also thwarted meticulously planned evil games by psychopathic criminals.

But nothing was as headache-inducing as this night, leaving her mentally and physically drained.

It was like going on a vacation, enjoying hotpot and singing, only for the Star God to revive and the planet to collapse because someone spit on the ground.

"How long until the Red Alert Plan is activated?"

Chen Yun took a deep breath and asked.

"Three hours and forty-seven minutes. The living body carrying the Electronic Demon virus, its ’signal’ is rapidly increasing. It will probably break through the electronic blockade in four hours.

Director Chen just found an experienced Gun Master who will lock onto the target in two hours and shoot to kill on the spot."

Chen Yun nodded and glanced at Qin Shi in the passenger seat:

"I, along with a... helpful civilian, am heading to Old Factory Street to try and minimize the influence of the Electronic Demon."

Qin Shi wanted to scratch his head and ask if he could get a special admission slot at one of the Four National Universities if he helped deal with the Electronic Demon.

As a backup, some tens of thousands in rewards would work too. He still hadn’t received the reward for reporting the fake medicine dealer last time.

"Little Qin, what’s your Life Force?"

Chen Yun asked.

"Twenty-one points."

Qin Shi replied.

"I remember the Old Martial Sect is purely natural, not accepting prosthetic implants or organ modifications. Even the Heart Posture Imagery they adopt is older and more traditional."

Chen Yun continued.

"That’s right. Following the Old Martial Road does lean towards conservatism, avoiding things like gun and mechanical Heart Postures."

Qin Shi didn’t hold back.

"Good! Little Qin, if you can get close to the target, give it a try."

Chen Yun seriously analyzed the situation:

"The target’s Life Force isn’t high. The Electronic Demon attaching to him has brought ’Rust’ and ’Mechanical Manipulation’. The troublesome part is that all electronic devices and high-tech weapons are ineffective. Even a Gun Master’s long-range sniping can’t guarantee the bullet won’t be infected.

If we fail, the Urban Circle might activate the Red Alert, which is a euphemism for widespread destructive strikes. So, we need to think of a solution."

Qin Shi’s expression turned solemn as he pondered whether he could handle this.

His gaze fell on the newly unlocked achievement.

[Electronic Mind: Your cognition determines how you observe the world, deciding the levels at which you see things. As the saying goes, wise men see wisdom. As a young life, you need to grow.]

[Trait: You will be seen as kin by non-organic entities and possess normal communication abilities.]

[Advanced Route: Stay in contact with Mechanical Soul and establish a friendly relationship with a favorability above sixty for thirty days to upgrade and unlock corresponding skills.]

"If you can distract him for a while, Yun, I think I could get close to Ze."

Qin Shi’s expectant eyes reflected his need for a Tank to draw aggro as an Assassin.

"Alright!"

Chen Yun gritted her teeth and agreed.

The Black Knight Guard roared through the night, rushing towards the factory district.

...

...

In the temporary command room at the Inspection Headquarters within the Urban Circle.

Chen Ruofu, with his meticulously groomed white hair, stood tall, calmly issuing decisions.

Sudden events are inherently troublesome, but they aren’t insurmountable.

By compiling information from all sources, he had a general understanding of the situation.

"Qin Lihao placed contraband in a container at Jiushong Port. Then he and Cheng Ze had a conflict. Cheng Ze kidnapped Qin Zhijie and Luo Jie as hostages to extort minerals, load liquid, and high-energy batteries—military supplies.

Cheng Ze might have extracted information from the hostages, went to Jiushong Port, took the contraband, and set the place on fire.

During the ordeal, he might have gotten injured or bewitched, becoming possessed by the Electronic Demon and turning into the live source of the virus."

Chen Ruofu looked at elderly Shen from Old Factory Street sitting before him, along with another cohort. His voice remained calm:
