NOVEL NEXT Chapter 118: Entries on the Train
"Try out these upgraded attributes."
When the courier delivered the sword Zhou Yingting purchased, Zhou Yingting immediately brought out an alloy as the test target.
Previously, using the Startled Swan couldn't cut through the alloy. Now that the Startled Swan was upgraded, Zhou Yingting wanted to see if it could cut through the alloy.
After setting the test target, Zhou Yingting stood at a distance with the sword, ready to use the Startled Swan attribute.
The next moment, Zhou Yingting felt an inexplicable swordsmanship flood into his mind again.
Unlike the previous Level 1 Startled Swan, this time when Zhou Yingting used it again, the sword twirled to form a flower, carrying Gang Qi. Then Zhou Yingting stepped forward, flying towards the sky like the Flying Celestial Map.
When Zhou Yingting flew to a height of a few meters above the ground, he swiftly pierced downwards.
The sword carried Gang Qi, gleaming as if a meteor crashing to earth.
In an instant, it reached the target alloy.
"Boom!"
A deafening roar erupted as the original alloy was blasted into countless fragments by this strike.
A crater three to four meters wide appeared around the alloy.
"The power has increased, and the damage range has also expanded slightly."
Zhou Yingting observed the crater on the ground, pondering the difference in damage.
Looking at this damage distribution, if confronted with people like Niu Cheng, he should be able to take them out with a single strike.
However, those guys are already dead, and there's no way to continue testing.
"With this strength, there shouldn't be any problem dealing with Tier Two wanted criminals now, right?"
Zhou Yingting thought as he touched his chin, then called Zhang Yi.
"Hey, is there any Tier Two wanted criminal nearby?"
He wanted to find this wanted criminal to test and see if he could enhance his attributes after defeating him using the Commander attributes.
But Zhang Yi, answering Zhou Yingting's call, involuntarily fell silent.
Was Zhou Yingting serious? He just took out four Tier Three and one Tier Two Extraordinaries.
Isn't his strength already formidable enough, and still looking for Tier Two Extraordinaries? Isn't that a bit too cautious?
"Hold on, let me check."
Zhang Yi picked up the information beside him, checked, and after surveying the nearby area, said helplessly, "Within 450 kilometers, there's no Tier Two wanted criminal. The closest one is 600 kilometers away. Do you want to take it?"
"I'll take it!"
Zhou Yingting didn't hesitate and said immediately, "This time, let's make sure the intelligence is accurate, no more mistakes like before. Also, can you pinpoint his exact location?"
"We can pinpoint accurately, we've already successfully located his position."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yi promptly responded.
Seeing this, Zhang Yi immediately sent the location to Zhou Yingting, who booked a high-speed train ticket.
There's no airport where this wanted criminal is, and it's too far, so the train is faster.
After booking, Zhou Yingting rushed to the location provided.
This time, Zhang Yi indeed proved more reliable, as the location of the target was precisely pinpointed.
Upon inquiry, Zhou Yingting discovered that this wanted criminal had used his personal software en route, leading to his phone being successfully located.
"Who are you?"
When the Tier Two wanted criminal Wang He returned to his hideout and opened the door to see Zhou Yingting inside, he immediately became incredibly alert and edged towards the door quietly.
But Zhou Yingting gave him no chance, punching directly.
With one punch, he almost crushed the opponent to death.
Watching this scene, Zhou Yingting quickly held back a bit of force.
This Wang He hadn't entered an attribute dungeon, his power remained at Tier Two.
After a few punches from Zhou Yingting, Wang He seemed on the brink of death, clearly showing signs of wanting to beg for mercy.
Seeing this, Zhou Yingting quickly displayed the Commander attributes.
"I give up, don't hit me! Please, don't hit me. You're from the 14th Bureau, right? Take me back, I'm willing to stand trial."
Wang He's face was swollen, pleading incessantly with Zhou Yingting.
Seeing this, Zhou Yingting's eyes slightly narrowed as he glanced at the Commander attributes, noticing no change in the enhancement section.
Seeing this, Zhou Yingting picked up a nearby mirror, seeing the Commander attributes still on his forehead.
While using the Commander attributes, if the combat objective is completed, the Commander attributes will remain hidden unless reactivated.
Now, with the Commander attributes still on his forehead, it indicated that the recent fight didn't count.
"Damn!"
The Commander attributes didn't work at all, and now they aren't disappearing. Once Zhou Yingting has the next task, they might automatically activate.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yingting's expression turned a bit grim.
This test certainly incurred some loss.
"Men, take these guys back."
Wang He had surrendered, and his crime wasn't enough for outright execution. Zhou Yingting called local law enforcement to hand this person over.
"Thank you for coming all this way to help us out with this wanted criminal!"
The informant sent to capture the wanted criminal looked gratefully at Zhou Yingting.
"You're not an Extraordinary, are you?"
Zhou Yingting looked at the Extraordinary in front of him and pondered before asking.
"I'm not. Becoming an Extraordinary is too dangerous; I'm not ready yet."
Upon hearing this, the informant immediately replied.
"Can you see the word entry above my head?"
Zhou Yingting thought for a moment and asked.
The informant shook his head, "I don't see anything."
Can't see it?
Zhou Yingting thought about it and decided to ask Wang He if he could see the word entry above his head.
This time, Wang He nodded. He could see it.
It seems that perhaps only by becoming an Extraordinary can one see his word entry.
Or maybe the informant in front of him doesn't meet the criteria, so they can't see his word entry.
After letting the informant take the person away, Zhou Yingting booked a return ticket.
"Looks like exploiting such loopholes won't work."
Zhou Yingting brought his sword to the station, passed security checks smoothly, and boarded the train.
In the business class compartment, Zhou Yingting was just about to take a good rest when he saw a few people enter the cabin.
Among them was a woman carrying a large barrel of water who caught Zhou Yingting's attention.
Even before approaching, the strong smell of alcohol from her body was overwhelming.
"Can you bring this much alcohol onto the train?"
The business class passengers who entered with her frowned upon detecting this.
The stench of alcohol was too overpowering; barely inside, the entire business compartment was filled with the smell.
Judging by her appearance, as she occasionally takes a sip, it seems this journey will be unpleasant.
"Gentlemen, I am sorry, this lady has a special status, please excuse us."
The attendant immediately stepped forward to pacify them upon hearing this.
People in the business class were taken aback by this; a special status?
Based on their understanding, the staff wouldn't normally state something like this so bluntly, regardless of someone's status.
Given that, it must mean that her status is indeed unusual.
Thinking of this, everyone present remained silent, wary of provoking someone beyond their capabilities.
At this moment, everyone settled back into their seats.
"Special status, Extraordinary?"
Zhou Yingting sat aside, pondering the scenario.
The woman with the large mineral water barrel filled with alcohol seemed somewhat intoxicated after several sips, sitting on her chair and falling asleep.
Zhou Yingting glanced at her but couldn't discern anything special, so he didn't look further.
Having someone like this nearby, Zhou Yingting both rested and remained alert.
Having disposed of several people lately, Zhou Yingting worried if this unexpected Extraordinary was a relative or friend seeking revenge.
Amid a drowsy daze, as the train sped into the tunnel, a blur appeared within.
Yet once the train passed, this blur vanished.
As it appeared, the blur appeared inside the train.
Alerted by something amiss, Zhou Yingting immediately opened his eyes.
Soon, he saw a word entry inside the train, its halo expanding rapidly, spreading throughout the train.
At this rate, it wouldn't be long before it engulfed the entire train.
"Word entry copy?"
Witnessing this, Zhou Yingting abruptly stood.
Quickly moving to the train's exit, he pulled the red handle overhead.
Instantly, the train began slowing down rapidly.
"Sir, what happened?"
Attendants dedicated to business class services approached swiftly, urgently inquiring after seeing Zhou Yingting pull the red handle.
Unaware of Zhou Yingting's specific identity, they were instructed to serve well and not offend him.
Thus, even as Zhou Yingting pulled the red handle, they dared not voice confrontation.
"Notify everyone to evacuate the train immediately!"
Zhou Yingting turned, watching the word entry cover the train ever faster, speaking solemnly.
If the word entry completely engulfs the train, everyone aboard would likely be pulled into the word entry copy.
"I need to notify the conductor."
The attendant, unsure of the matter but sensing something awry, intended to contact the conductor while also reporting the situation to her superiors.
