All My Superpowers Come from the Law of Causality-Chapter 116: Explosive News

Receiving yet another message through the communicator about the death of a comrade, Duan Yilin fell silent.

Now, only three members of the Dragon Soldier Reserve Squad were left in Lening City.

As a combat unit carefully groomed by the financial group, each of them was a battle-hardened warrior, having undergone the baptism of blood and fire, strengthened by various drugs, and trained professionally, equipped with advanced weapons.

Under normal circumstances, this squad of sixteen, armed with sufficient gear and ammunition, could even wipe out a regiment of dozens of regular troops in a suitable arena.

In fact, in previous missions, they had more than once raided a regular military camp in some small country, leaving no enemy behind.

This time, ordered to assassinate the Black Robe, their equipment might not have been strong, and their actions rather rushed, but for over half of them to be eradicated so easily by the enemy left Duan Yilin feeling incredulous...

And a deep sense of powerlessness.

In the face of the mysterious and powerful Black Robe, the so-called elite squad was no different from ordinary people and had no chance to perform.

The opponent was not only elusive but also had incredible killing methods.

No one knew when or where the opponent would suddenly appear.

And when the opponent appeared,

It meant you were about to die.

Recalling the dashcam footage where Black Robe thrust a short blade toward his throat, yet he emerged unscathed, while the interior echoed with his comrade's screams, Duan Yilin felt even more tangled.

The instant teleportation ability, combined with such bizarre killing methods, made him feel that Black Robe was simply beyond any human's defeat.

Now, Black Robe was evidently aware of being tracked, or the opponent had some means to monitor around Fenglan District.

Continuing to pursue meant likely meeting the same fate as his comrades, being easily killed by Black Robe.

But if they didn't pursue, and the target left Fenglan District by daybreak, they would be left with only one tracking dog to comb through vast Lening City, amid daytime disturbances to find the target...

That would be too difficult.

Utterly a matter of luck.

"No, even if Black Robe leaves during the day, he shouldn't directly teleport away..."

Duan Yilin suddenly had a thought:

"Then, as long as we stake out from afar, waiting for the crowd to gather during the day, and then appear with the tracking dog at the entrance of Fenglan District, we might directly spot the Black Robe's true form."

"Or, if the opponent stays home to sleep during the day, we could also blend in with the crowd to infiltrate the district, find his home with the tracking dog, and thus determine his identity."

"Unless..."

"It's a ruse by Black Robe."

Thinking of this, Duan Yilin immediately ordered a comrade to take the tracking dog and hide discreetly three kilometers away from Fenglan District.

At this distance, he believed Black Robe couldn't possibly have detected them.

Gradually, the sun began to rise.

Around 5:30 in the morning.

Duan Yilin suddenly received a report from his comrade:

"Report! The target suddenly vanished!"

"Report! The target suddenly vanished!"

Snapping awake from a drowse, Duan Yilin immediately cleared his mind and decisively ordered:

"Withdraw and rest for a few hours first."

"The target surely knows we're tracking through scent. Fenglan District was just a ruse. Since he was on guard, it's useless to chase relentlessly. Rest up, and resume city-wide tracking in the afternoon."

...

Today is November 1st, Tuesday.

At eight in the morning, Su Xin arrived at school on time to start a new day of learning.

According to Wanghai Country's exam system, from today, senior students could choose to register for the final exams autonomously.

Given that the final score is an average of multiple exams, most high school seniors, without full confidence, usually don't register for the first exam in early November, to avoid lowering their average score.

Previous graduating seniors and teachers generally advise ordinary students against participating in the early November exam.

Only the best scholars, who are entirely confident, choose to participate.

Su Xin had long decided not to continue muddling through high school, so during the first lesson's break, he decisively went to his homeroom teacher's office to register for the exams.

Entering the office, he heard some teachers gathering, seemingly discussing something animatedly.

Seeing him enter, Teacher Zhou, the homeroom teacher, returned to his seat, and Su Xin approached him, smiling as he asked:

"Su, do you need something?"

"I want to register for the exams."

"No problem."

Knowing Su Xin to be decisive, Teacher Zhou readily agreed without persuasion and drew out a registration form from a folder, then fetched a chair:

"Sit, fill out this form."

"Okay, thank you, teacher."

Su Xin sat down and completed the form, overhearing the teachers discussing the matter at Kangbo Biological Company — the deaths couldn't be concealed; police and media had arrived that night, exposing the incident by morning.

This caused a stir not just locally in Lening City, but across Wanghai Country and internationally, generating a massive wave.

After all, dozens of security guards from one company being killed, akin to an extermination, was explosive news in modern society.

Moreover, Kangbo Biological Company wasn't just a small company but a branch of a large multinational pharmaceutical firm in Wanghai Country, and a subsidiary of Yonghui Financial Group, with deep backgrounds.

Such an incident severely tarnished the reputation of the entire Wanghai Country.

Finishing the form, Su Xin listened to the surrounding discussions, then took his leave.

Back in the classroom, Su Xin took out his phone to browse the news, finding the incident dominating headlines everywhere.

This incident was far graver than the earlier 10.20 attack, not only did Kangbo Biological Company Headquarters publicly denounce it, but Yonghui Financial Group also made a serious statement.

In response, Wanghai Country's relevant departments formally addressed it, promising to punish the perpetrators and bring justice to the victims.

International forums also buzzed with discussions about the incident.

In short, the death of dozens of security personnel at Kangbo Biological Company shocked the world.

As for those who attacked Su Xin last night but were killed by him, no news mentioned it, and no one made any statements on the matter.
