Chapter 329: Chapter 197 Big Event Two: Blood Clan Hunter (Part 1)_3
In the post, she attached a video of the superhero “Automan” summoning his battle vehicle with his superpower in the testing room and merging with it.
The footage was too bizarre, so by the next day, the thread’s discussion exploded in popularity, shooting it to the top of the Superhero Community Forum in terms of views.
Superheroes from around the world left witty comments on this spectacle, and many female heroes even expressed their desire to have Automan as a forum friend, offering large sums to Rose-in-Hand for his contact information.
Blue Owl wanted to crack a joke too, but after some thought, he decided not to post any comment.
“We’re all tough guys; someone as insignificant as me doesn’t deserve to speak up,”
he yawned, thinking to himself.
The Bai Yi Squad was still just a D-class superhero team within the Association, lacking popularity. They couldn’t compare to teams like Balloon Knight Squad, a B-class team.
Moreover, he himself was the lowest, an E-class superhero, one in thousands in the forum, a dime a dozen and totally inconspicuous.
After browsing the forum for a while longer, Blue Owl was just getting bored when the electronic sign on the office door suddenly changed from “Do Not Disturb” to “Please Enter.”
Seeing this, Blue Owl rose from his chair and stretched lazily.
He turned the doorknob, opened the office door, walked to the desk, and sat down in a black swivel chair.
Blue Owl put his hands together in front of his stomach, then asked, “Uh… will I get to see my superpower mentor today?”
Che Zhengchen put down his pen, took a sip of water, “Probably not.”
“Not again?” Blue Owl sighed, “Qing Ya is really hard to meet. Maybe I should just switch to a different superpower mentor.”
“There’s no need. If he actually decides to teach you seriously, a few words from him could be more useful than 10 mentors combined,”
Che Zhengchen put down his water cup and said with a smile.
Blue Owl drew out his words: “That’s if he ‘really decides to teach me seriously.’”
After a pause, he probed, “Speaking of which, could Qing Ya already know who I am?”
“No, from my brief interactions with him, he definitely doesn’t know yet,”
Che Zhengchen shook his head in denial.
“Why?” Blue Owl tilted his head curiously, the beak skewing to the side, “Logically, with Qing Ya’s tracking abilities, he could’ve easily found out my identity. So why hasn’t he done it?”
“Maybe… Qing Ya doesn’t really want to see who’s under your mask,”
Che Zhengchen suggested, adjusting his glasses.
“Huh?”
“He’s afraid of hesitating, contemplating whether to use you as bait to lure out Timekeeper. Afraid that if you’re just some young kid like Pigeon Dove, he’ll be overwhelmed with guilt once again,”
Upon hearing this, Blue Owl fell silent for a moment.
“Let’s not talk about this for now,”
changing the subject, Che Zhengchen lifted his eyes to look at Blue Owl: “I came to you today mainly to talk about the Association’s advancement system. The evaluation for hero levels uses a points system. An E-class superhero needs to accumulate 500 points to be promoted to D-class. There are many ways to get points, and the most common is by carrying out missions.”
He paused: “In addition, superheroes that make significant contributions to various sectors of the nation, like those who use their superpowers to develop new types of energy, such as ‘Porcelain Knight,’ can be exceptionally promoted to the next level without having to meet the points requirement, and might even jump several levels.”
“I see, so I only need 200 more points to become a D-class hero?” Blue Owl asked.
“Roughly, yes,” Che Zhengchen nodded, “But it still has to be approved by the committee, which is just a formality, unless there’s some complication in your background. Otherwise, it’s usually a secure promotion.”

“Okay, then…”
Mid-sentence, the entire office was suddenly bathed in dazzling red light.
Blue Owl’s voice cut off abruptly. He braced his hands on the armrests of the swivel chair, turning his head to look around, “This isn’t like before, when someone invaded the Superhero Tower, is it?”
“Something’s off. Normally, if there were an outsider invading, there should be an alarm,” Che Zhengchen frowned.
Right then, the entire Superhero Tower went into red alert mode, seemingly due to an external attack. Consequently, the superheroes received the warning and flew out of the windows to check the situation.
Meanwhile, Che Zhengchen’s office window was slowly covered by a layer of metal sheeting, blocking the view outside.
“I can’t fly. So what do we do?” Blue Owl asked.
“Wait for me a second,”
saying this, Che Zhengchen opened a private app on his phone, checking the reason behind the alert. However, he was slightly taken aback upon finding the source.
This time, the red alert mode wasn’t activated by detection of external threats by the Superhero Tower’s defense mechanisms, but was initiated directly by a senior official using their authority.
“The defense mode was manually activated by higher-ups. As of now, in Huanjing, the only person capable of triggering this kind of authority is the president of the Huanjing Superhero Association Branch, Li Qingyao,”
as Che Zhengchen said the last name, he paused, suddenly recalling something.
A few weeks earlier, he was supposed to meet with the branch president Li Qingyao in an underground bar.
For some reason, he didn’t meet Li Qingyao, and his memory of the bar scene was a blur, with almost no complete memory of it.
