The man with the casquette was wearing a mask and only revealed one pair of eyes. He was also looking at the handsome man. “Yang Xiu, 26. Race, human. Graduated from Henan University, currently single. Take out your ID.”
The handsome man said, “Wait a moment,” turned back to the house, and a moment later, he returned with his ID card in his hand, handing it to the man with the casquette.
The man with the casquette compared the ID photo with the face in real life. The real person had a beautiful face. He was several times better looking than that of the ID photo. After the individual had awakened, he was like a new person. His face, body and skin would be optimized, which was comparable to minimally invasive plastic surgery.
The man with the casquette returned his ID card. The seriousness in his eyes turned to joy. He patted the man on the shoulder. “Comrade, the organization has come to find you.”
The handsome man also showed his joy. “What is our organization called? The Avengers? Chinese Dragon Group?”
He had been awake for half a month. He had been restraining his desire. When an ordinary human suddenly gained supernatural powers, their first thought would be: I’ve struck the jackpot! The second thought would be: My goddess is now my sexual outlet.
This was the way ordinary humans experienced their awakening. There were too few people like the protagonists in American movies who became heroes of world peace after gaining superpowers.
If not for the comrades from the club who warned him to behave properly and wait for the organisation, he would be like a dog who had broken free from its leash, rejoicing his new found freedom with his superpowers.
The man with the casquette smiled. “Follow me and you will know. The organization will open the door of the new world for you and let you see the world in its original state.”
The handsome man changed his clothes and packed up briefly. He was told that he could not bring his mobile phone and other communication equipment, so he came out with his wallet and ID card. He didn’t bring anything else.
Two people left Block 9 and the estate, and saw two SGMW vans parked at the roadside at the intersection outside the estate.
He was sent into one of the vans, opened the door, and was startled. Looking inside the small car, there were more than ten people sitting in it.
“This organization is so poor. I thought people in Maseratis and Maybachs would pick me up,” Yang Xiu muttered.
“Maserati? Do you think you are the protagonist?” a man beside Yang Xiu said with a smile. He had a round face, like an apple, but it was not cute. It made Yang Xiu feel oppressed inexplicably.
“You are?” Yang Xiu frowned.
“We are just as lucky as you are to get superpowers,” the man with the round face replied.
The whole car? Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment, and an inexplicable mood rose from his heart. He was dazed, lost, angry, and depressed… He always felt that he was the protagonist, selected by the supernatural organization in the vast crowd, and then brought to a base for secret training.
There were similar ones, but not many. In American superhero movies, there was Spider-man, Iron Man, and Captain America. Each of them was the protagonist and acted a lot.
Yang Xiu thought he was one of them, but he never thought that there were so many people found by the organization. There were 12 people in this van alone, not counting the one behind.
In a flash, he fell from the Avengers’ Alliance to the X-Men. The former was an elite leading role group, while the latter had many super powers. However, he was just a minor supporting role?
“You must be human!” A pair of snow-white lotus arms hugged Yang Xiu’s neck from behind, and the strong fragrance flowed into his nasal cavity. It was a gorgeous woman behind him who held his neck.
The woman put her face on his neck, sniffed his scent, and her voice was charming. “Hey, shall we be friends?”
Did you just throw yourself at me? Yang Xiu was stunned, but he was happy. Am I still the protagonist? Although there are many people with superpowers in X-Men, there were still leading characters, such as Wolverine and Magneto.
This aura, where there were beauties actively flirting with you, was the aura of the protagonist.
Wait, why did she mention the word “human”? He suddenly found that the two white arms around his neck had turned into hairy forelegs. The appearance of the gorgeous woman changed drastically. Her pupils turned amber, two sharp animal ears grew on her head, and her fluffy tail brushed against him.
“D-Demon?!” Yang Xiu screamed and bounced up from his seat. His head hit the roof of the car.
“Stop the commotion!” Just when Yang Xiu was about to use his powers, the driver scolded him. A strong shockwave of mental power descended, causing noises to resonate within his brain and blanking his state of consciousness.
After a long time, his consciousness returned. Yang Xiu’s face turned white, and the driver’s voice was in his ear. “Behave yourselves. Regardless of whether you are human or demon, once you join the Great Demons’ Alliance, you are brothers and sisters. As I induct you into the organization tonight, everyone will be family after declaring allegiance to the emperor. The people of the Great Demons’ Alliance are all over the world.”
Great Demons’ Alliance? Emperor? Demon? Yang Xiu said cautiously, “Is it a demonic organization? Why did you pull me in?”
This was different from what he thought. He thought he joined the Chinese Dragon Group, and it turned out to be a demons’ organization?
“What’s the difference between man and demon?” The driver sneered. “I am also a human being. Human beings and animals share the same blood and have similar genes. You will know when you join the training course.”
The coquettish woman covered her mouth and said with a sneer, “Little handsome boy, please come and play with me anytime.”
Yang Xiu’s superhero dream was shattered. As the two vans roamed around the city, they picked up new people every time they stopped. This did not stop until two o’clock, where the process of picking up new people was presumably complete. The van drove out of the city towards the outskirts.
The city was getting further and further away, until the lights disappeared completely. The surroundings outside the car were dark and became increasingly remote. Finally, the cement road disappeared, as the van travelled along the muddy road.
The car stopped in a fertile field. The moon was bright and the stars were little, and the fields were continuous. The outline of the mountains was faint in the dark.
Yang Xiu was in a tense state. The car suddenly stopped and he immediately looked at the driver.
“Are we here?”
“Where is this? Where have we been taken to?”
The people in the car leaned out of the window and looked out. After driving for four or five hours, they had already left Henan. They did not know where they were now.
The driver didn’t answer. He got out of the car and leaned against the driver of another van to light their own cigarettes.
Although the newbies in the two cars were dazed and surprised, they dared not disturb the big bosses.
As one of them finished smoking a cigarette, there was a sharp cry in the night sky. A huge eagle spread its wings and glided low. A girl with denim shorts was hanging on its talons.
The two drivers stamped out their cigarette butts in a hurry, stood upright, looked up, and watched the eagle fly by. The girl fell from the sky.
Bang! She landed from the sky hundreds of meters high and left a big hole in the ground. The newbies in the van were shocked.
“Eagle Protection Skill!” The two drivers stood by the pit, with their heads held high and their voices respectful.
Eagle Protection Skill, who looked like a girl next door, glanced at the van and said, “Let them all come out.”
The two drivers immediately opened the door and muttered, “All out! All out!”
“Stand up, line up!”
The newbies stood up one by one and looked at the charming girl who had made a grand entrance, cautiously and shocked. She was wearing denim shorts and a white T-shirt. Her legs were thin and she had soft lotus arms. She looked like a girl next door who had just grown up. She resembled the flower season in “The Quiet Man”. She was waiting for a man to take her into the new world.
However, as she approached, her eyes began to droop, and the young newbies could not help but lower their heads and breathe fast, because they felt a great pressure.
It was the unique aura of the strong. For example, when ordinary people saw a lion, their legs would soften with fear.
Eagle Protection Skill walked in front of the group of newbies. Her eyes were as sharp as hawks and falcons. No one dared to look at her. She went from left to right and from right to left. After one round, some people were already sweating profusely and shivering like chaff.
Was this a test for us?
After another round, Eagle Protection Skill stopped and commented, “The quality of this group is average, but one of them is very brilliant, which surprised me. If he can join the Great Demons’ Alliance, it will certainly make our family more prosperous.”
The newbies looked at each other, expectant and nervous. They all hoped that they were the talent mentioned by Eagle Protection Skill.
“What’s your name?” said Eagle Protection Skill as her eyes rested on someone.
All of them turned their heads with envy, to look at the handsome young man favored by the lucky goddess. “My name is Yang Xiu.” Yang Xiu’s face was filled with excitement and surprise.
So, I’m still the protagonist?
