Chapter 197 - A Chance

Su Jin reappeared in his own house in his own universe, shocking Kano Mai. But once she saw it was Su Jin, she immediately rushed over.

“Jin, are you alright?” she asked gently when she saw how pale he looked.

He nodded slightly and was extremely relieved. If he hadn’t gone through that experience in the long river of time and had that huge ball of psychokinesis locked away in his subconscious, he wouldn’t have been able to come back now.

That woman had been so terrifying. Her eyes were incredibly mesmerizing. Peacock’s level of charm was at beginner level, but that woman had reached the highest level possible for this skill and had grasped the ultimate secret behind executing it well.

He breathed a long sigh of relief. He had underestimated how formidable some of these owners could get. His universe had Xu Ran, another universe had Shen Wu, while Chu Yi’s universe had that female leader of the cult. All of them were incredibly powerful. He was no match for them, unless he unsealed his psychokinesis.

“They’re all very powerful, but they seem to have deliberately suppressed the upper limit of their powers, so that they can remain within the limits that the Handbook can accept,” muttered Su Jin to himself. When he thought about it further, he wondered if it was because Xu Ran, Shen Wu, and that woman had no way of increasing their powers.

But he felt that the answer to that question was no. It seemed more like these formidable people had purposely kept their power within the Handbook’s limits. Why would they want to do this?

“Is it in order to gain from the Challenges?” The answer was actually very obvious. Hell’s Handbook was generally dangerous to most owners, but it was a treasure trove to a small minority. The things they could get from going through and completing Challenges tempted them.

“Jin, about Chu Yi…” asked Kano Mai in a low voice.

Su Jin smiled at her and said, “I’ve already killed him, so I’ve completed my mission. Don’t worry about that.”

Kano Mai breathed a big sigh of relief. She dragged him to the dining table and said with a smile, “You’ve worked very hard, so I’ll go prepare some food to reward you!”

“That’ll be awesome!” After settling the problem of Chu Yi, Su Jin was feeling a lot more relaxed. There was no reason to turn down a good meal.

Kano Mai smiled and ran off to prepare a feast for him. Immediately after she walked away, Su Jin sensed that someone had come through the gate outside, and it was his own teammate, Situ Jin.

He raised a finger and used his psychokinesis to open the main door of the house. Situ Jin had just reached out to open the door when the door opened on its own. He peeked inside and was surprised to see Su Jin seated at the dining table.

“I didn’t expect to see you here.” Situ Jin walked in and sat down comfortably in front of Su Jin.

“I’ve completed my mission, so I’m back.” Su Jin shrugged.

Situ Jin nodded, then said casually, “How did it go? Since you’ve returned so quickly, I assume everything went well? You managed to slaughter Chu Yi?”

“Yup, everything went pretty well. But right at the end, a very formidable woman appeared and I nearly died because of her,” said Su Jin as his heart palpitated in fear at the thought of the leader of the cult.

Situ Jin was curious. He understood Su Jin’s prowess very well now, so if he nearly died at the hands of this woman, this woman must be truly formidable.

“Tell me more, tell me more. A woman who could make life so difficult for you must have been no ordinary woman,” said Situ Jin in a curious manner.

Su Jin rolled his eyes at Situ Jin and frowned as he said, “She’s very powerful and is probably on par with Shen Wu and Xu Ran. Ordinary people will not be able to hold up against her and would immediately defect to her side. The Resistance Army really got me this time. They were probably afraid that I wouldn’t go and help them if I knew about this woman, so they purposely hid this fact from me. That nearly cost me my life!”

“Defect to her side? She has an ability to hypnotize others or something?” Situ Jin was an intelligent man, so he could tell from Su Jin’s words that this woman was probably capable of something like that.

Su Jin nodded slightly. He eyed Situ Jin and asked, “By the way, you couldn’t have known that I’d be back by now, so why did you come all the way here from B City? Are you trying to hit on Mai while I’m not around? You wolf in sheep’s clothing! So much for being a top civil servant!”

Situ Jin merely scoffed at Su Jin’s accusations and said, “Wu Chen received some news about how the boss of that organization of robbers, that Shen Wu you’ve talked about, is currently embroiled in some infighting among his own members and has no time to worry about the other universes he invaded. I thought that this would be a good chance to get Miss Kano to help us destroy the little base that Shen Wu has set up in our universe.”

“Shen Wu’s members are fighting among themselves?” Su Jin was surprised.

“According to Wu Chen, the fight is so bad that they can’t even keep it under wraps anymore, that’s why Wu Chen even managed to hear about it in the first place. It’s good that you’re back anyway, you should come with me too.” Situ Jin rubbed his palms.

Su Jin fell silent. He didn’t mind going along with Situ Jin. Besides, he needed to know more about Shen Wu’s organization. If he could seize this chance to destroy the base that Shen Wu had inside his universe, he would be able to get the information that he wanted too.

“Sure. But we need to make some plans first. Shen Wu might not be able to assist the people here, but the owners left here are pretty formidable too. If we just barge in like that, we might suffer damages,” said Su Jin. He was anxious to go there as soon as possible, but after what he went through in Chu Yi’s universe, he realized that having a good plan was very important.

Situ Jin nodded in agreement and got up. “No problem. I’ll go get ready and we’ll head over in three days’ time. If Miss Kano is willing to come along, please invite her to come with us too.”

Su Jin nodded and waved his arm to motion to Situ Jin to leave. Situ Jin didn’t get angry and just disappeared into the shadows.

“Tsk, what a show off!” Su Jin rolled his eyes. He had learned about Situ Jin’s Spirit Power from the Mad Hatter and had to admit that this was a Spirit Power that was very suitable for Situ Jin.

A short while later, Kano Mai emerged from the kitchen with plates of delicious food. Su Jin ate heartily and told her what Situ Jin said earlier after he had finished his meal, and also invited her along to head for the organization’s base in their universe.

Kano Mai was agreeable, since there was nothing else to do too. Besides, as a Handbook owner, she had to fight in order to gain experience and strengthen her powers.

After resting and getting prepared for three days, Situ Jin arrived in S City again. This time, he drove a really flashy car with a license plate with all 8s. Su Jin felt his head spin by just looking at it.

“Not bad! This vanity plate alone is enough to buy this place that I’m renting!” exclaimed Su Jin.

“Tsk. We’re owners, so neither of us lacks money, for crying out loud. I needed to borrow a car and got this one since we’re from the Department of Supernatural Affairs after all. Hurry up and get in,” said Situ Jin as he waved at Su Jin and Kano Mai.

After they got in, the car drove straight for the airport. But once they arrived at the airport, Situ Jin led them to one of the airport staff and requested for a plane instead of boarding a plane like most normal passengers.

The airport staff was an older bald man who thought that Situ Jin must be crazy. There were plenty of influential people in S City, but none of them would run to the airport and just ask them for a plane at the last minute like this. But after Situ Jin gave the staff a number to call and he made that call, the staff’s expression changed dramatically and got the plane and pilot that Situ Jin needed in no time.

After they boarded the plane, Kano Mai asked curiously, “Situ, surely your department is ranked high enough for us to get a military plane, right? Why did you insist on getting a civilian plane?”

“Situ is afraid of alerting those people. If you flew a military plane there, you’d be discovered before you even got close. But a civilian plane is different. They wouldn’t care even if one flew over their heads.” Su Jin lay in a first class seat and stretched his arms lazily.

This was a really luxurious trip. Including the pilot, the stewardesses and the three of them, there were only eight of them on the plane.

“Sir, Madam, would you like to eat now or later?” a stewardess asked the three passengers in a gentle voice.

“Eat now, of course! I’ve never eaten from the first class cabin’s menu before,” said Su Jin with a big grin on his face. The stewardess couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Su Jin’s excited expression, blushed and walked away to get him his meal.

Situ Jin glared at Su Jin and sighed. “That’s quite enough. If you like taking first class so much, I’ll get you a VIP pass that can be used on all airlines once we’re done here.”

“Is that possible? You can actually do that?” said Su Jin with a chuckle.

Situ Jin ignored Su Jin and didn’t want to talk to him anymore. Kano Mai was amused as she watched these two men bicker like children.

The plane soon arrived near an island. According to Situ Jin’s intel, the organization’s base in this universe was that island.

“Alright, time to land!” Situ Jin handed one backpack to Su Jin and Kano Mai each, then said, “This is the latest equipment in the country. It’ll help us to land safely.”

Su Jin sighed helplessly. He was terribly afraid of heights and he had been forced to fall from great heights so many times recently. Each jump was even worse than bungee jumping too. At this rate, he was going to die of fright while falling before a Challenge killed him.

The cabin crew looked on in horror as Situ Jin opened the cabin door. But even after opening the door, nothing changed inside the plane. Doing that didn’t even make a single napkin fly up.

“After all three of us jump out, please use your psychokinesis to close the door behind you,” Situ Jin said to Su Jin.

Su Jin nodded. Situ Jin jumped first, then Kano Mai. Su Jin licked his lips, turned to wave at the two stewardesses, then shut his eyes as he jumped out as well. The door shut behind him and everything returned to normalcy inside the plane.

The three of them descended rapidly. They were still a distance away from the island, which was in accordance with Situ Jin’s arrangements. After all, if they landed directly on the island, they would end up being target boards, so they had no choice but to land in the surrounding sea and approach the island from the waters.
