Too Many Reincarnators? I Bring the National Team to the Field - Chapter 24

After getting in the car.

Sheng An kept replying to messages.

The Song family all looked terrified, maintaining a tense silence.

Li Xin couldn’t hold it in and wanted to speak, but Li Huai shot him a fierce glare.

He immediately wilted, slumping in his seat.

Song Linwei felt a headache coming on. He asked Sheng An, “Is the aftermath troublesome? Will it cause any negative impact on society?”

This was the normal reaction of a reasonable person.

Their family had suddenly produced a ‘superpowered individual’ and caused such a commotion, yet they still had to live in this neighborhood. If the impact was too great, the country certainly wouldn’t show mercy.

Sheng An glanced at him, raising her eyebrows slightly.

He really was a smart person, and rare for having a sense of the bigger picture.

“It’s fine. We’ll just say it was a film shoot. The Information Department will handle any videos posted online,” Sheng An replied carelessly.

It really wasn’t a big deal.

Li Xin hadn’t had a chance to cause a major incident before they caught him. Even if someone posted a video, the Information Department could handle it-they had plenty of experience with this sort of thing.

“Even if we use the filming excuse, won’t people in the neighborhood still speculate?” Song Mother asked anxiously.

Filming could fool most people.

But there were too many witnesses today. Some would have seen clearly and refuse to believe it.

Sheng An was still replying to messages, not even looking up as she answered, “If they don’t believe, they don’t believe. The country will have to notify the public to prepare for the apocalypse sooner or later. It’s not a big problem.”

There were only eighteen days left until the apocalypse; it couldn’t be hidden much longer.

Li Xin was shocked when he heard this, his voice rising in disbelief: “What? The country will notify the public?!”

He had always thought the government would keep it secret from the people.

That was why he wanted to save the world, to warn everyone-the apocalypse was coming.

And now he was being told the government would announce it?

Sheng An was speechless.

She looked up at him, expressionless: “Why would the government keep it secret? Would it benefit the country if everyone died? Of course there will be emergency notifications and arrangements, trying to save as many people as possible. Kid, stop imagining all sorts of nonsense.”

Li Xin: “…”

Song Linwei shot him a glare, and Li Xin shrank back into his seat.

Song Linwei looked at Sheng An again, puzzled. “Why were you here today? Wait, did you already guess that Xiao Xin was ‘Iron Man’?!”

“It wasn’t hard to guess, was it? The only person a smart guy like you would go to such lengths to hide is your own family. Aside from Li Xin, your whole family is clever. Only Li Xin would do something like snatch a kid’s Ultraman figurine.”

Sheng An paused, then added, “If we hadn’t been here today, who knows what kind of trouble he would have caused. Luckily, we arrived in time.”

Song Linwei fell silent, looking at Sheng An with a complicated expression.

He thought he’d hidden things well, but the other party had already figured it out!

Of course, it was all Li Xin’s fault.

Song Linlin was incredulous: “What? You snatched a kid’s Ultraman? When did that happen?”

Hearing this, Li Xin shrank his neck.

He hesitated for a while, then muttered quietly, “He didn’t believe in the Light, so I wanted to give him a little punishment…”

Li Huai looked ready to grab the broom again.

Song Linwei stopped him, rubbing his temples, “When I found out he’d gone to someone else’s house, I worried his superpower couldn’t be kept secret, so I decided to make a post and fish for information.”

Because of the meteorite incident, people had been saying the apocalypse was coming, and Li Xin was one of them.

He even refused to go to school because of it.

Then Li Huai beat him up and sent him back to school.

Later, after Li Xin awakened his ability, he became even more convinced the apocalypse was coming, and that it was his time to save the world and show what he could do.
Song Linwei wasn’t sure, so he chose to go fishing.

Unexpectedly, they actually caught a fish.

But-it was a shark.

It swallowed them whole in one bite.

After speaking, he glanced cautiously at Sheng An.

Sheng An showed no reaction, so he probed further: “What’s the situation now? Xiao Xin… how are you going to arrange things for him?”

Sheng An replied, “Didn’t he want to save the world? Of course, he’ll join us in saving the world.”

She looked up at Li Xin, her expression half-smiling: “Young man, how about joining us to save the world?”

Li Xin instinctively lifted his chin, a rebellious look on his face.

He snorted, “You’re pointing a gun at me. I’m not that easy to-”

Sheng An interrupted him, smiling slightly: “I’m informing you, not negotiating with you.”

Li Xin: “?”

He was incredulous, almost jumping out of his seat, raising his voice: “Hey, woman, I’m Superman Iron Man! What kind of attitude is this?”

Sheng An saw through his arrogance.

Even after being caught, this kid still thought he was all that.

Well, he did have ‘superpowers’ after all.

But Sheng An was not someone who liked people acting cocky in front of her.

She raised an eyebrow: “Do you think you’re Superman, a Superpower User with special abilities, the Chosen Son, unique and different from everyone else?”

Li Xin didn’t reply, but his chin was still up.

The Song family tugged at him, but he remained unmoved.

He was awesome to begin with!

-Since the country wanted to recruit him, they should be friendly and put him on a pedestal. How could they treat him like this?

Especially this woman in front of him-he was determined to make her bow her head!

Sheng An smiled faintly: “Oh, then you’re wrong. You’re not special at all. You’re just a Metal-type Superpower User. With the arrival of the meteorite, countless Superpower Users will be born all over the world.

‘Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Strength, Speed-none of these are the strongest. There are also Regression and Mutation, even Space, Healing-type, Dark-type, and so on.'”

Li Xin: “??”

His expression changed slightly, but he still stiffened his neck: “So what? They haven’t appeared yet, have they? I’m the one who already has superpowers!”

Oh, this kid reacts pretty fast?

Sheng An raised an eyebrow: “Who said they haven’t appeared? Otherwise, what do you think our Apocalypse Special Affairs Department is for? Besides you, there are plenty of Superpower Users-Water-type, Fire-type-they’ve all shown up.”

Li Xin stubbornly said, “They’re not as strong as me!”

His hand clenched into a fist-the last stubbornness and pride of a teenager.

Sheng An smiled slightly: “There are also quite a few Reborn Persons.”

Li Xin: “???”

-What the heck? There are even Reborn Persons?!

Aren’t those only in novels and TV dramas?!

But… Reborn Persons…

They sound even more like protagonists than Superpower Users.

Li Xin had to admit it.

“A teammate who joined us a few days ago is called Jiang Yu. She returned after being reborn a year into the Apocalypse. She has a space, a very large one, and inside is black soil where things can be grown.” Sheng An’s voice was calm.

Li Xin: “!!”

Sheng An looked at him, her eyes curved in a smile:

“Oh, and there’s another teammate named Li Wanyun, a Reborn Space-type Superpower User. Not only does she have an enormous space, but she also started off with five billion yuan and is helping the country stockpile supplies like crazy… In addition, there are unknown, powerful Superpower Users-our other team is fully mobilized…”

‘Crack-‘

Something shattered.

-Oh, that was the poor boy’s self-esteem.
