Reborn As a Snake, I Can Absorb Fear

Chapter 87 Awakener LevelsJiang Feng continued to weave through the city, as if patrolling his own territory.

The traffic lights and cables blocking his path were all knocked down by his massive body.

Not long after Jiang Feng stepped into Kobe City, the high-level officials of Sakura Country received the news.

At the Prime Minister’s official residence, Takaichi Wanmiao was furious.

”Foreign Minister Suzuki, is this your plan?”

”Prime Minister Takaichi, it was the army soldiers who did not act according to the plan, causing the Big White Snake to accidentally enter Kobe City.”

”Foreign Minister Suzuki, my subordinate Nakamura Ono and his team said that luring the Big White Snake is simply not feasible. We lost dozens of tanks, and the Big White Snake didn’t take the bait at all.”

”Is that so? Defense Minister Murakami, then how did the Big White Snake enter Kobe? Wasn’t it lured there by your artillery battalion?”

”Hmph, in any case, your plan is unworkable.”

”It is your execution that is flawed.”

”Prime Minister Takaichi, if Foreign Minister Suzuki insists on her plan, I suggest letting Foreign Minister Suzuki implement it herself.”

”Murakami Taro, you are shameless.”

”Enough, stop arguing. Now is not the time to shift blame. Since the Big White Snake has already entered Kobe City, if a large number of civilians die, it will inevitably cause turmoil in Sakura Country. What solutions do you have?”

”Prime Minister Takaichi, why don’t we ask the USA for help!” said Foreign Minister Aso Daofei.

”Sigh! If I had known it would come to this, we should have asked the USA for help from the very beginning,” sighed Finance Minister Qianshang Ji’er.

”Will the USA be too late? Why don’t we ask the Dragon Country for help?” suggested Suzuki Keiko.

”Foreign Minister Aso, you go and communicate with the USA and the Dragon Country. As long as their conditions are not too outrageous, you may agree to them.”

”Very well, Prime Minister Takaichi.”

Dragon Country, Imperial Capital, Mysterious Affairs Administration.

Three days after the Big White Snake incident in Su City, the Mysterious Affairs Administration of the Dragon Country was established; this could be called the ”Dragon Country Speed.”

The first director of the Mysterious Affairs Administration was Comrade Director Xia Weiguo from the Abnormal Creature Management Bureau.

Originally, Director Xia Weiguo would not have been able to become the director of the Mystery Bureau, but Secretary Song Qingya brought back a piece of snake skin from Su City.

That piece of snake skin was the very skin that Jiang Feng had shed in the riverside forest at that time.

After the snake skin was brought back to the Abnormal Creature Management Bureau, a researcher curiously ate a piece of it.

As a result, they actually became an Awakened One. This discovery immediately caused a sensation throughout the entire Abnormal Creature Management Bureau.

After continuous attempts, some people could awaken after swallowing the snake skin, but others could not. The awakening probability was around twenty percent.

Although the awakening probability was not high, it still allowed the Abnormal Creature Management Bureau to produce more than twenty Awakened Ones.

These Awakened Ones were collectively known as Snake-Skin Warriors. They could cause parts of their bodies to be covered in snake scales, thereby significantly increasing their defense and strength.

One Snake-Skin Warrior was enough to take on more than a dozen ordinary soldiers, of course, assuming no weapons were used.

It could be said that every Snake-Skin Warrior was a top-tier special forces king.

With fewer than ten Awakened Ones discovered nationwide, the Abnormal Creature Management Bureau had over twenty.

Director Xia Weiguo naturally became the director, because the Mystery Bureau was essentially an organization dominated by Awakened Ones.

Without the support of a certain number of Awakened Ones, no one could be a good director.

”Director, we have analyzed the information regarding the Awakened Ones.” Former head of the Tianlai Research Institute, Zhao Tianting, said as he arrived at Director Xia Weiguo’s office with a document.

The Tianlai Research Institute specialized in researching sounds between heaven and earth. Over twenty days ago, their institute received a mysterious signal.

The entire Tianlai Research Institute had been working day and night to decipher it, and now they had new findings.

”Oh? Tell me about it!” Director Xia Weiguo immediately became interested.

Because the number of Awakened Ones was too small, there had never been a way to classify them.

”According to that information, Awakened Ones, like giant beasts, are also divided into six realms,” Zhao Tianting began to explain.

”These six realms are: Initial Awakened, Star-Holder, Wall-Breaker, Domain Master, Law Envoy, and Originator.”

”The Initial Awakened generally possess a single power, mostly manifested in physical attributes. Their physical fitness far exceeds that of ordinary people. At the peak of the Initial Awakened stage, they can easily take on a hundred enemies.”

”Star-Holders not only have physical fitness far exceeding ordinary people, but they can also use some peculiar spell-like abilities, such as releasing fire.”

”Wall-Breakers have even more powerful usage and control over spells; they can even change the nature of the spells. For example, Star-Holders can only release fire, but Wall-Breakers can control the temperature of the fire, turning the fire into ice.”

”Domain Masters combine their personal will with their abilities, projecting them outward to form a rule-based personal domain. Such people have already transcended the mortal level, becoming like gods.”

”Law Envoys can weave the laws of the world and touch the origin; physical rules are completely ineffective against them. It is easy for a Law Envoy to destroy a country or a civilization.”

”Originators are one with the origin, becoming the embodiment of certain concepts. They have reached an indescribable state; they are time, they are the universe.”

After Zhao Tianting finished speaking, he picked up a cup and took a sip of water.

He quietly watched Director Xia Weiguo, who was lost in shock.

Initially, he had also been shocked; he had always thought that giant beasts were eternally invincible existences.

But now, after learning the levels of the Awakened Ones, the giant beasts didn’t seem so terrifying anymore.

After a long time, Director Xia Weiguo finally gathered his thoughts.

But he was not as optimistic as Zhao Tianting. The later stages of the Awakened Ones indeed looked impressive.

But the premise was, how does one advance?

From the level classification just now, he also learned that the Snake-Skin Warriors in their Mystery Bureau were merely the lowest-level Initial Awakened, and it had been many days since they became Snake-Skin Warriors.

Their abilities had not improved at all; they had no idea how to advance, let alone how to master spells.

Wait, it seemed like one Awakened One had mastered spells.

A figure suddenly flashed through Director Xia Weiguo’s mind.

That was someone he only met after becoming director; he had only heard of her before.

She was that first Awakened One—Su Ling.

Su Ling also came from Su City, and Su City not only had Su Ling as an Awakened One, but also another one.

His name was Bureau Chief Lu Ye, an Awakened One whose physical fitness was no lower than that of the Snake-Skin Warriors.

The Big White Snake also appeared in Su City.

Therefore, Su City had always been a key focus of the Mysterious Affairs Administration.

It was just a pity that no other special features had been discovered so far.

”Director, news has come from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,” Secretary Song Qingya said as she walked in.

”What news?”

”Sakura Country has requested our help; their Kobe City is under attack by the Big White Snake.”

”The Big White Snake? Could it be him?” Director Xia Weiguo stood up abruptly.

Ever since that Big White Snake from Su City escaped into the sea, they had lost its trail. All these days, they had been sending people to search on the sea.

Could it be that the Big White Snake had really gone to Sakura Country?
