Shocking the World and Shocking Yang Jian

Knowing the attacker's location, Deputy Director Huang immediately arranged for the action team of the Public Security Sub-bureau to go and apprehend him.

Since the commercial building was deserted at night, the sniper wailed in the bathroom for a long time with no one to pay him any mind.

It wasn't until the action team kicked open the door with their guns drawn.

The man's injuries were extremely severe; both arms and one leg were essentially crippled.

However!

He hadn't lost much blood.

This was Yang Jian's deliberate intention to keep him alive, to uncover the mastermind behind the attack.

Seeing the situation at the scene, the action team immediately contacted Deputy Director Huang.

However, the video call was directly transferred to the Liekong Society office...

"Look at the scene!"

Appearing on the other end of the video was Chen Yang, giving commands.

The others, Wu Gang, Long Sihai, Hu Mingwei, and others, sat together, ready for action.

Less than five minutes had passed since the incident occurred.

All members of the Rift and Salvation Emergency Response Committee, except for the Fifth Elder, were present.

They were all diligently working in "salvation," so they simply brought their helmets to the office to use.

They could be called upon and arrive at any moment!

The Fifth Elder wasn't absent; he had been called away by the higher-level Elder Council.

The sniper, still wailing on the ground, struggled to lift his head and look at the action team members who had entered the room.

"Help me..."

Chen Yang frowned with dissatisfaction on the other end.

"Muzzle him!"

Two members of the action team immediately stepped forward to gag the assassin.

Then, to prevent him from struggling, they directly injected him with an anesthetic!

Despite the intense pain in his limbs, the assassin still fell unconscious.

"Look at those three arrows..."

What followed was an extremely meticulous on-site investigation.

This included the angle at which the arrows penetrated the ground, estimating the height from which they were fired.

The style and strength of the arrow shafts... Then, the scene was a flurry of video and photo data collection.

Finally, the small section of ground where the arrowheads had penetrated was carefully cut out and taken away.

"No matter what, maintain the integrity of the arrow shafts and send them to Qingyun Pavilion!"

Before hanging up the video call, Wu Gang made his final deployment!

The person, of course, also had to be sent over.

They also wanted to know what audacity this person had to dare cause trouble in Xia Country!

Additionally, they were very curious to know which 'big brain' could figure out a way to bypass the world's will.

Of course, they weren't trying to deal with Yang Jian.

Not to mention that just thinking about such a thing would bring clarity to one's eyes.

Even just looking at Yang Jian's combat power tonight... in less than two hours,

the sniper, the arrows embedded in him, and the sniper rifle he used, along with other items, were all delivered to the Liekong Society at Qingyun Pavilion!

"Barrett MRAD? A .33 large-caliber sniper rifle... and the bullet was caught?"

The accompanying delivery personnel handed over the bullet that Yang Jian had caught bare-handed.

Yang Jian hadn't paid attention to it, and when he arranged for people to clean up the shattered glass in the office, it was cleared away with everything else.

It was directly taken away by the sub-bureau's personnel...

"These three arrows are indeed game products; they are the 'Sharp Arrows' sold by the general merchant! They are sold all around Zhenhai City!"

"Exactly the same?"

"Exactly the same!"

Chen Yang was stunned!

What a mess this was...

"Team Leader Chen, the surrounding surveillance footage has been processed for high-definition! Director Hu wants us to come over and watch it together!"

The group sat down, with the meeting recorder and video analysts taking their respective positions.

A large screen was divided into four smaller sections, each playing its own content.

They watched it through completely the first time to get a general impression.

Then, starting with the second viewing, they could pause and ask questions!

Of course, such questions required collective brainstorming to find answers.

Given the current situation, no one dared to ask Yang Jian directly!

As the video began to play for the second time, the video analyst started explaining some of the things they observed in the short few dozen seconds of footage.

"Leaders, please look! Here, Yang... Mr. Yang pulled back the curtains. Due to the angle, our surveillance cameras couldn't conveniently film inside the office, so we can only see Mr. Yang sitting in the boss's chair!"

After the video was sent over, the staff analyzed it frame by frame while processing its clarity.

They also knew Yang Jian's current strength, and even in his absence, their address expressed full respect.

The office was full of sharp people.

No one felt the need to correct such a title!

Why?

Are you dissatisfied with Mr. Yang?

..."Then, here! In just about twenty seconds, the glass shattered! This indicates that the sniper had already been ambushing outside!"

"We can't see the specific situation inside here, but then, Mr. Yang stepped out of the window with one foot, jumping directly over seventy meters high!"

At this point, another camera, a long shot, was switched to.

"Here, it's clear that the bow was pulled out of thin air. Those of us who play games know what that means!"

"This first arrow was clearly shot at the leg! At this time, Mr. Yang's figure had a very obvious pause in mid-air and did not immediately fall!"

"This is where he must have realized the assassin had suicidal tendencies! He fired two consecutive arrows, pinning his hands to the ground!"

"Based on the building height and the arrow's entry angle, it's estimated that Mr. Yang was at a height of approximately 76 meters above the ground at that time!"

"The rest was his contact with our ground staff after landing!"

The scene was silent; no one spoke.

Hu Mingwei rubbed his temples.

"Didn't the Seventh Princess's information say that Abyssal Monsters are at least level 45 and would only begin large-scale invasions of the Eastern Continent after the second expansion pack? And if I remember correctly, it was said that Abyssal Monsters are at least much stronger than Black Iron Bosses of the same level, right?"

"Didn't Yang Jian just return from another world? Could this strength be related to that other world?"

"What else can be done? We'll just have to keep a close eye on it!"

...At the scene, some people were discussing in low voices, while others watched the replay over and over again!

"I checked the data. From around 12 PM today until 8 PM, Yang Jian and Zhou Yue were online, but their levels remained unchanged. Do you know why?"

A middle-aged man, rarely seen speaking at meetings, asked Hu Mingwei.

Hu Mingwei looked at Song Ruifeng, who had spoken, and frowned.

Why?

"In other words, why was Yang Jian's first reaction to return to the office and guard it after something like this happened?"

"Are you suggesting?"

"Who was in his office... or rather, in his resting room?"

"Zhou Yue! Someone reported that after going offline in the evening, he carried Zhou Yue all the way to his room. Zhou Yue's condition wasn't quite right at the time!"

Hu Mingwei paused, then asked back incredulously, "Are you suggesting?"

"I suspect Zhou Yue is also about to undergo the so-called physical evolution and transformation..."

At these words, the scene fell into even deeper silence!

Almost everyone's eyes went through several transformations, from fierce to clear!

"Can we analyze our Mr. Yang's current strength?"

The analyst immediately chimed in.

"Because there's no specific reference, we can only judge based on his physical strength, power, agility, etcetera..."

Hu Mingwei was listening intently, but the other person suddenly fell silent.

"What's the result of the judgment?"

"Based on him catching a Barrett bullet bare-handed... basically, without large-scale weapons of mass destruction, it would be very difficult to deal with him!"

"After all... catching a bullet is much harder than dodging it!"

"Are weapons of mass destruction definitely effective?"

"Uncertain! After all, he seems capable of flying, and very fast at that..."

Hu Mingwei rubbed the bridge of his nose.

"Formulate a written report; we need to submit it to the Elder Council!"

The other person responded and left, leaving the meeting room once again in silence!

...While Xia Country officials were holding their meeting, the other three major nations were even more shaken, if not equally so!

Bear Empire, Romanov Dynasty.

The current Emperor, Romanov II, had already gone into "salvation" to level up.

He was forcibly dragged out of bed by his subordinates and advisors...

"You're not trying to scam me for funds with an AI video, are you?"

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, I wouldn't dare to joke with you about such a matter! It's absolutely true..."

A fierce glint flashed in Romanov II's eyes...

"Uh... go level up!"

He had a thousand words, but he couldn't utter them, couldn't act...

And now, everything seemed too late!

Especially after the technical department provided a definite analysis based on the intelligence!

It's over!

The strength Yang Jian displayed directly cured Romanov II's bipolar disorder!

...York Mack, Director of the U.S. Department of Homeland Defense and Strategic Security.

He was even publicly berated by the Eastern King at the White House.

Why was he scolded?

No reason.

Can't our American sun scold you a bit?

...As for the European Union... this disunited group had just issued a notice for a meeting!

The official start of the meeting was still far off!

...Lingyun Commercial Park, Development Zone, Linhai City, Xia Country.

At Yang Jian's office, someone had already come to replace the window!

Yes, directly replace the window.

After all, many buildings in the entire industrial park had standardized dimensions.

Waiting for glass replacement would take too long; it was faster to just replace the entire window.

After about three hours,

Zhou Yue, who had undergone her first physical evolution and transformation, slowly opened her eyes.

"How do you feel?"

Yang Jian had just stepped forward, ready to help her up.

He felt something was off.

Zhou Yue's mental energy fluctuations were clearly abnormal.

Cups, shoes, and other lighter objects in Yang Jian's room began to fly around.

Even the heavier bedside table seemed to be losing control of gravity.

Fortunately!

As Zhou Yue's eyes gradually cleared and became more focused,

the various objects floating in the air fell one by one.

As the bedside table was about to hit the ground, Yang Jian lightly tapped it with his toe, allowing it to land steadily.

Then he reached out and caught a cup!

As for the slippers and such, Yang Jian didn't bother with them!

Zhou Yue slowly sat up and stretched.

"Who first awakens from a grand dream? My life, I know myself..."

"You're getting carried away! Daring to compare yourself to the Prime Minister?"

Zhou Yue was radiant.

"How dare you say this Queen is getting carried away?"

Zhou Yue flipped out of bed.

She reached out and poked Yang Jian in the armpit!

"Ice Spike..."

Hmm?

"Ice Storm...?"

"Lightning Ball...?"

Yang Jian watched Zhou Yue, who was acting silly, with a poker face.

Her expression gradually calmed down.

Then she looked at Yang Jian with a hint of flattery.

"Are you tired? I'll give you a shoulder rub!"

Yang Jian sat down, yielding to her strength.

Enjoying Zhou Yue's massage service...

"Isn't casting skills something anyone can do with hands? I usually turn off assisted casting too, you know?"

Yang Jian ignored her, simply closing his eyes and enjoying.

"Big brother, just tell me..."

"Teach you, so you can hit me with Ice Spike?"

"Ice Spike, it couldn't even knock out a single strand of your hair!"

Yang Jian snorted coldly.

"If you dare to use Ice Spike on me today, tomorrow you'll dare to summon a nine-headed hydra at me..."

"It's not that exaggerated!"

After teasing each other for a while, Yang Jian began to talk about serious matters.

"What percentage is your transformation at?"

Zhou Yue looked at her system panel.

"39.73%"

"How much?"

Yang Jian's voice rose, his face filled with disbelief!

You're messing with me, aren't you?

You must be messing with me!

"Your attributes can't be that high? I don't believe it!"

"Really, there's a description. My profession, 'Element Controller,' is a top-tier hidden profession. The full professional transformation alone requires thirty thousand Abyssal Essence!"

Yang Jian: ...My ordinary Hunter profession, it seems, is indeed a bit unimpressive!

However, the conditions for transferring to 'Stellar Huntress' are relatively strict!

He would definitely only initiate the unification after his physical transformation reached 100%, or even exceeded 100%.

But so far, the guild hasn't even reached level three...

While he was lost in thought, the phone rang!

He picked up his phone and saw it was Hu Mingwei...
