Chapter 106: Chapter 106: The Battle Begins the Moment Our Eyes Meet_1

After instructing Elmon in his training, Song Lan also began to focus on his own cultivation.

Indeed, after encountering Lu Xiang’s alumni, he had been pondering a question - what weaknesses did his abilities still have.

In the end, he came to a conclusion.

His ability had no weaknesses.

During the activation of his ability, he seemed to have detached himself from this world. He could even survive a nuclear explosion by exploiting the properties of his ability. To better understand his ability, he likened the world to a movie playing out. When his ability was activated, he was like stepping out of that movie and into the viewpoint of an editor, being able to freely edit everything within a specified range.

The attacks within the movie world could not hit the editor who was outside the scope of this world, yet he could deal with any targets within the coverage of his ability using his editing capabilities.

Therefore, his true weakness was not in his ability, but in himself.

Unexpected attacks could directly hit him when he could not react using his abilities. It sounds far-fetched, but in the year 2166, where psychics were as common as fleas, there’s no guarantee that there won’t be an enemy with complex abilities that he cannot understand in a short time. He would be hit before he could fully understand the other’s abilities.

His physical strength was probably weaker than those who had been taking drugs every day to temper their bodies like the Liver Emperor, or those who had nearly transformed themselves into Iron Men via prosthesis modification.

And this was one of the reasons why he never wanted to make himself conspicuous.

If he could communicate with his own ability, Song Lan would express his deepest apologies - it’s not you, it’s me who has failed.

Fortunately, after meeting Aishi, Song Lan discovered a door leading to a new world.

Perhaps spiritual energy itself could become his best self-defense tool.

Just now, at home, he had already proven that spiritual energy could manipulate objects. What if applied the same way to humans?

To verify this, Song Lan came downstairs, rode his beloved MK-Ⅱ, and went to the most chaotic part of District Seventeen.

.....................

On this seemingly ordinary afternoon, Law Enforcement Manor was in chaos.

Even the seasoned special action squads had never seen such a commotion. A large number of criminals had poured into the manor. Their number was probably more than the total sum of them last week.

Street thugs, illegal drug dealers, small crime bosses, petty criminals - all the criminals you would see in District Seventeen on a daily basis could now be pulled out many times over from this mountainous pile of unconscious people.

Yes, these criminals were brought here by ordinary citizens, and their numbers were still on the rise.

Captain Doug counted the numbers and entered a state of bewilderment.

He even wondered if he had slept too long due to the fatigue of recent times and that everything that was happening now was just a dream.

For example, a street thug who had his identity confirmed had been arrested 8 times according to the crime database - for sexual harassment, theft, intentional injury, and selling illegal drugs. He was an "outstanding" criminal in District Seventeen. Before being sent to them, this thug and his "brothers" were wandering in the East District.

They soon targeted two schoolgirls walking home together and followed them into a dark alley, then surrounded them.

Given Captain Doug’s many years of experience, the two schoolgirls were likely in danger. The thugs had committed crimes of sexual harassment and photo-taking in previous cases.

However, what happened next was beyond Captain Doug’s understanding.

Just as the street thugs prepared to commit another crime, the girls attacked first. An over-the-shoulder throw nearly broke the neck of one thug. By the time they were sent there, the gang leader was in a deep coma.

Captain Doug checked the records of the two girls carefully and found that both were ordinary students, and neither had learned combat techniques.

The girls explained that in the face of danger, they suddenly remembered the heroic deeds of the "concerned citizen", and a surge of unspeakable power emerged within them.

Once again, crime could not stand up to courage, all were but paper tigers.

For the first time in his life, Captain Doug heard that courage derived from a role model could indeed give strength. As a test, he asked the two girls who had beaten up five thugs to lift a bucket of water. They barely moved a few steps.

However, this was not the most staggering testimony they heard that afternoon.

They thought they would no longer be surprised by an eighty-year-old man who needed a cane to walk suddenly chasing a drug dealer down ten streets with his cane, or a wheezing middle-aged woman stepping in and knocking out a small skinny thug with a combination of punches.

But when they heard the testimony of a sanitation worker literally kicking an East District crime boss out of his car and single-handedly fighting off three armed criminals with a broomstick, they were nearly shocked to their cores.

The sanitation worker, who wished to remain anonymous, said: "There are no restrictions, when your eyes meet, the fight has already begun."

Indeed, the sanitation worker didn’t beat up the crime boss because he had been victimized, but because the latter parked his car on the street and gave him a menacing look.

The old man then took the initiative to attack.

After hearing so many startling testimonies, they summed up a common point – all these ordinary citizens who chose to fight back felt a surge of power within them.

A new type of illicit drug?

Captain Doug and Chief Snick held an emergency meeting, during which they carefully compared all the drugs circulating in the black market of District Seventeen that could cause excitement. However, they found that none of these illicit drugs matched the effects described.

The reason these drugs were listed as illicit is that they all invariably had side effects on the human body.

In theory, if the 80-year-old man used an illicit drug, even if he could chase around others and beat them up, he would surely be rushed to the ICU once the effect of the drug wore off.

However, the old man showed no signs of being lethargic, on the contrary, he was full of vigor and could even walk without a cane, seemingly ready to repeat his chasing tale.

"We should report to Director Lu."

With no clue what was going on, the two decided to leave the matter to Director Lu.
