Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 321
Chapter 321: Instructor Ye
“Meng Chao, hi there!”
At that moment, a gentle voice interrupted his thoughts.
Meng Chao looked up and saw a man who was not tall, had a baby face, and black hair. He was smiling while looking at him.
Meng Chao blinked. He was then certain that this was the man who had been fighting fiercely underground. Had had swung a thin saber shaped like a drying rack, delivered nearly one hundred silver glares, and whose killing intent did not lose to that of Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu.
Once he pulled his spirit energy back into his body, his hair returned to a normal shade of black. The sharp killing intent and the pressure given off by a powerful fighter were also completely gone, tucked safely in his body once more.
At that moment, he looked like a normal office worker who had just graduated and was under such a huge workload that he was tired all the time. His kind could be found in any office building and often seen ordered around by their leaders.
“Instructor Ye!” Lu Siya stood up.
“Sit down, why are you still trying to keep up a strong front? You’ve drained your spirit energy, so you need to rest, or else, you’ll end up having to deal with complications.”
Instructor Ye waved at Lu Siya before he turned back to Meng Chao and said with a smile. “Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Ye Xiaoxing from the abnormal beast research department. I’m in the information analysis sector.
“When Lu Siya received her training in the abnormal beast research department, I taught her for a period of time, so we became pretty good friends.
“I participated in the investigation of the case under the Raging Waves, back when you fought against the White Spirit and stopped the Red Radiance Jade mine from creating a large explosion.
“So, I’ve been hearing your name for a long time. I’ve been looking for a suitable chance to ask Siya to introduce us. I didn’t expect that we would end up such a pathetic sight when meeting you. I even ended up losing the clue that you managed to find after going through great trouble. The criminal actually managed to flee. It’s really… a little embarrassing!”
Ye Xiaoxing looked quite embarrassed.
Meng Chao quickly stopped him. “I was only suspecting him. I didn’t have a single clue. My suspicions cannot be considered a clue. You mobilized so many people based on just my intuition, and you even came over personally. This trust alone is enough to make me feel touched.”
Ye Xiaoxing’s smile was a little wan. “Investigating the activities of highly intelligent monsters and whether they will endanger Dragon City has always been the main job of the abnormal beast research department. During the White Spirit Case and the case of the murderous pets in Blessed Paradise, the department did not do much. Instead, we ended up relying on you, an outsider, to turn the tides and figure out the culprit. It’s a real regret of ours.
“But don’t worry, Meng Chao. The abnormal beast research department won’t let you down and waste the clues you found for us. We will definitely investigate Gao Ye and the organization behind him. You’ve also contributed to Dragon City in these two cases, so your contributions won’t be buried in the shadows. You will definitely obtain the glory and rewards you should have.”
Meng Chao had never expected this.
Since the White Spirit’s creator had yet to appear and the case was treated as confidential because it was still under investigation, Meng Chao’s contributions could not be announced completely. However, the abnormal beast research department had rewarded him a lot of monster materials, gene medicine, and a lot of treasures through Lu Siya.
He was a harvester and had a discerning eye that far surpassed the eyes of the current generation when it came to the appraisal of materials, so it was only natural that he could tell that the rewards the abnormal beast research department gave him were top-quality rare materials. They were all items that could not be bought in the market even if someone was rich.
By relying on the gene medicine and monster materials, Meng Chao could cultivate his branch meridians until all of them gave off a crystalline quality and became incredibly sturdy so that more spirit energy could instantly pass through his entire body. This would allow him to be able to release the fighting power of someone at the peak of Earth Realm, even though he was only a two-star superhumans.
He had given part of the materials to Gu Jianbo, his personal tutor. It was all so that Gu Jianbo would have a smoother time when he went into isolated training and paved his way to become the Blade Dancer.
Meng Chao knew that the abnormal beast research department was rich and did not lack money, so there was no way they would be stingy but instead would give him a shock through material items.
“Glory and rewards aren’t important,” he said politely. “Did Big Sis Ya tell you that I’m actually a man with big dreams and don’t care for fame? I don’t want any material rewards, but wish to contribute to Dragon City.
“Compared to material rewards, I’m more interested in getting into contact with information regarding highly-intelligent monsters. In fact, I would like to join the related cases and defeat all the evil beings who want to attack Dragon City. I want to get rid of all these monsters who have human intelligence and protect Dragon City’s peace!”
His brave words and the pure sincerity in his eyes made Ye Xiaoxing unable to resist smiling.
“Siya has indeed mentioned it to me. She said that you’re… a very different young man.” Ye Xiaoxing ruffled his choppy hair. “Normally, with the regulations in the abnormal beast research department, we are not allowed to reveal a lot of insider information to normal citizens, but both the White Spirit Case and the case of the murderous pets in Blessed Paradise are related to you. You’re also the last person to be in contact with Gao Ye. It’s impossible for us to exclude you in the subsequent investigations.
“How about this, Meng Chao? Let’s talk about what happened today. If you don’t mind, could you begin with how you went to Drizzle Studio?”
This was the logical course of action.
Meng Chao did not hide anything. He told everything from the start to the end and mentioned all the major and trivial stuff.
Of course, he hid the fact that he dreamt of the second Supernatural Entity in his nightmare.
Ye Xiaoxing listened to him patiently. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he did not interrupt Meng Chao.
When he tossed out a few questions, all of them hit the core of the case, so they helped Meng Chao clear up his story and narrate it more accurately.
They talked until it was late at night, and even then, they felt like they could continue talking.
“How about this, Meng Chao?” Ye Xiaoxing had admiration in his eyes when he looked at Meng Chao. “Both you and Siya have spent much energy during the fight today, so both of you need to rest and recuperate.
“As for me, I need to investigate some clues and apply for greater authority before I can carry out subsequent operations as well as reveal even more important information to you.
“I hope that you can keep what you experienced today a secret for the time being. Once we have some clues, we’ll ask for your help.”
Investigating the Mystery of the Supernatural Entities was Meng Chao’s goal, so he agreed to it readily.
After Ye Xiaoxing left, Lu Siya looked at him with delight. “Instructor Ye seems to be really impressed with you.”
“I’m a good young man who doesn’t care for fame or profit and just wants to contribute to society. I’ve always been admired by people. But you seemed to be really respectful of him just now. Is Instructor Ye really powerful?”
“He’s the person-in-charge of the information analysis sector in the abnormal beast research department. Of course he’s great,” Lu Siya explained. “The abnormal beast research department is divided into more than ten operation teams based on the administrative regions in Dragon City. Each team is in charge of one region. For example, these firefighters belong to the special duty operations team in Nine Sands Region.
“The information analysis sector is tasked to handle all the cases that seem to be related to abnormal beasts.
“Most of the cases end up being false alarms at the end. They’re either the doings of evil superhumans or normal monsters causing damage to the area.
“But a handful of cases are usually masterminded by abnormal beasts with incredibly high intelligence and malicious motives. They pose a major threat to Dragon City’s safety.
“The information analysis sector is the core sector in the abnormal beast research department. They are not deployed under normal circumstances, but once they are, they’re usually involved in major cases.
“So, the information analysis sector doesn’t only contain amazing fighters with outstanding abilities. They also have the authority to mobilize the manpower and resources of the special duty forces in the various regions.
“Since he is in charge of such a department, he’s definitely not someone you can easily befriend on the street.”
“I see,” Meng Chao said. “You actually managed to get someone so great to come? Looks like you’re pretty respected.”
Lu Siya shook her head. “It’s not because I’m respected. Of course, it’s not because you’re respected either. After I told Instructor Ye about the situation, he immediately made the judgment that you’re right. There was something wrong with Spirit Creation Creatures, so that’s why we rushed over himself. But unfortunately, we were still half a step too late.
“If we had been slightly earlier or Instructor Ye’s brother could have come, then it would have been different!”
She seemed to find the situation really regretful.
“Who is his brother?”
“He’s a true elite,” Lu Siya said. “Do you remember how we found an Apocalyptic Beast that resembled a mammoth when we fled from under Raging Waves? That creature had its head split open by a long and thin saber, or you could say, a large embroidery needle, right? It had died in one hit, remember?”
Meng Chao sucked in a deep breath and said, “Of course I remember. That’s the most unbelievable wound I’ve seen in my life.”
“The one who killed that Apocalyptic Beast is Instructor Ye’s brother, Broken Sword Ye Xiaoyue, a Deity Realm elite,” Lu Siya said. “He is really amazing. It’s said that he has the record for the longest time fighting alone in the wild, but the decades of fighting have left him crippled, and his disabilities are even worse than Gao Ye’s.
“But with some unimaginable secret technique, he relied on his handicapped body to release matchless vitality magnetic fields and became a pillar of strength in the northern frontlines.
“Unfortunately, he is far from handsome and is eccentric. He’s a sword maniac who cares about nothing else but the art of the sword. He spends a lot of time in isolated training in the Supernatural Tower to prevent himself from going through spirit energy deviation, so it’s not suitable for him to promote himself in a flashy manner. That’s why he’s not very famous.
“But the people in the field know that Broken Sword Ye Xiaoyue is one of the top fighters in Dragon City.
“Instructor Ye’s best skill is his ability to analyze information, and he has a brother who can cover up for anything he lacks in terms of fighting power. That’s why he became an important person in the abnormal beast research department.
“He might seem like your average person, but that’s not true. You left a good impression today, so it’ll be highly beneficial for us when trying to get in touch with more core secrets and participating in the subsequent investigation of the White Spirit Case.”
