Chapter 4 — The Privileges of Ordinary People

My father no longer used his humble Audi A6, but directly turned into a cloud... No, to keep it discreet, a dark cloud. Just like that, the family of four rode on dark clouds, quietly drifting right above the secret base. Looking down from above, the base is strictly guarded, outside is a high-voltage fence, inside are patrolling soldiers and countless surveillance cameras. “Geez, the game of mortals.” My father let out a cold snort filled with contempt. He bowed his head and gently blew out a breath. In the blink of an eye, all electronic devices in the base – from monitors to surveillance systems – simultaneously flashed and then turned off. All the lights went out, the whole base was plunged into deadly darkness. “Electromagnetic pulse – the dragon clan's minor magic, specializes in treating all kinds of 'disobedience'.” My father winked at me triumphantly. My mother smiled, her ten fingers interlaced together to form a complex hand gesture: "Illusion depends on the mind, the landscape is like flowers in a mirror, the moon at the bottom of water." I saw that the guards who were panicking in the dark suddenly became quiet. Some people started walking around in circles on the spot, some people laughed foolishly into the void, some people jumped into fights, and some people even hugged a pole and cried, "mommy". One by one they fall into illusions - the things they fear most or desire the most. “Illusionary fox clan, dealing with this group of weak-willed mortals is just an appetizer.” My mother elegantly smoothed her hair. The outside obstacle has been cleared, next... is my brother's stage. Lam Chien's figure was like a ghost, landing from the clouds and quietly slipping into the main building of the base. Above the dark clouds, my father turned into a glass screen, broadcasting it live for me to see his actions. I saw him walking like a deserted place, all the hidden guards, agencies, traps... in front of him were like nothingness. He was like a god-level assassin who turned on "full map hack" and smoothly entered the base's central control room. In the control room, a blonde foreigner - who looked like the leader - was screaming at the paralyzed screen: "What's going on? Where is our Than Thuan system? Why was it disabled?!" "Report, boss! All systems are down! Looks like we... have been hacked!" At that moment, the heavy alloy door of the control room was kicked open from the outside with a bang. Lam Chien stood against the light, his silhouette towering like a god. “Are you looking for me?” 9 The next scene... it must be said was a one-sided crush. The blond man was no ordinary person. He roared, pulled out two specially made energy guns from his waist, and fired wildly at Lam Chien. Blue rays of light traced curves of death in the air. However, when approaching within one meter of Lam Chien, everything seemed to crash into an invisible wall, silently disappearing. “Body protector true energy?” The blond man's expression changed: "You are a cultivator of Hoa Ha!" Lam Chien did not waste any words, took a step forward, his speed was so fast that he left only a shadow. The blond man only felt dizzy, his wrists hurt, and two energy guns were taken away. He turned it over, lifted it up and down, with a disgusted look on his face: "Rough workmanship, junk energy... Garbage." Having finished speaking, he clasped his hands. Crack! Two energy guns made of special alloy turned into two pieces of scrap iron in his hands. The blonde guy completely collapsed. The technological weapons that he is proud of, in front of the enemy, are as weak as children's toys. He turned around to press the red emergency button. Lam Chien snapped his fingers, a powerful stream of air shot out, hitting the button. Pop! The button is broken. “Don't waste any more effort.” Lam Chien stepped in front of him, looking down from above: "Tell me, where are your headquarters and branches? What are you arresting these 'special individuals' for?" The blonde leader still wanted to shut his mouth, but when he met Lam Chien's cold and emotionless eyes, he seemed to see in front of him a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, an endless abyss. It was pure fear that came from absolute overwhelming power. His psychological defense immediately collapsed. "I said it! I said it all!" … In front of the glass, I was stunned. Up until now I always thought my brother was just a handsome guy, quiet but good at fighting... I didn't expect him to be this domineering! This fighting power is just like the "proud dragon" male protagonist in the story! “How is it, daughter, is your brother awesome?” My father was pleased. “Yeah yeah yeah!” I nodded like a chicken pecking rice. “Of course, why don't we see whose son it is?” My mother said proudly. Before long, Lam Chien had extracted all the intelligence. It turns out that the "Truth Search Society" is a secret global organization, made up of a group of fanatical scientists and ambitious people. They specialize in hunting supernatural creatures around the world, extracting their genes and energy to create so-called "super soldiers", attempting to control the whole world. They paid attention to my house because in the Trieu Thien Minh incident, the power my parents used was captured by their surveillance satellites. But they couldn't accurately locate their parents, but discovered that all the energy fluctuations were concentrated around... a normal me couldn't be more normal. From there, they came to the wrong conclusion: thinking that I was an "energy singularity" with huge but unawakened potential, and my parents and brother were just my bodyguards. That's why they intended to arrest me first, both for research and as a threat card. After hearing my brother's report, my father's face immediately turned cold. "Gene extraction? Creating super soldiers? Huge ambition." My father turned to look at my mother, their eyes met. “Nguyet Tam, it seems we have to go on a trip.” My mother smiled charmingly: "Okay, it's been a long time since I've been to Europe to see ancient castles. By the way, let's clean up the rats hiding in the sewers." I heard them talking softly as if they were discussing what to eat tonight, but I knew clearly - this "Truth Search Society" was about to be completely wiped out from the world. 10 The collapse of the "Truth Search Society" was faster and more thorough than I thought. My parents really… went on a “travel”. The first destination is Europe. It was said that my father drank tea with the Dragon Kings who had been sleeping there for hundreds of years, and conveniently turned the guild's European branches - both people and bases - into piles of broken glass under the dragon fire. My mother went to America, visited the Feathered Snake God and the Fairy Queen, and opened a beauty secret exchange. As a result, right after the meeting, all of the association's bases in the Americas were swallowed up by vines and ancient trees overnight, turning into part of the forest. primeval. My brother is in charge of the Asia region. He brought along Thien Vu Minh's Master Order, mobilized all the supernatural forces in Asia, and launched a campaign to sweep away without missing a single person. Around that time, strange events that were difficult to explain continued to appear on international news: "An old castle in England lit up at night, suspected gas pipeline explosion." “The area of the Amazon rain forest increased dramatically overnight, the growth rate left scientists helpless.” “A research institute at the foot of Mount Fuji completely disappeared due to mysterious geological subsidence.” I scrolled through the news while quietly lighting a candle for that unlucky group. Not to provoke anyone else, but to provoke a dragon to protect the child, a nine-tailed fox to protect the child, and a martial god to pamper his sister. A month later, my parents returned from their "trip", feeling relaxed. "Finished." My father lay on the sofa, holding a cup of tea: "The world... is peaceful again." My brother also came back, bringing me a bunch of specialties from everywhere and some martial arts secret books that looked extremely powerful. "Du Du, take these things for protection." I opened a copy of Fundamentals of Air Intake: "Brother, I don't have any talent, I won't be able to study." "It's okay," he said seriously, "I've simplified the mind technique nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine times, now it's just equivalent to morning exercise. You practice every day and you'll be healthy and live to be 150 years old." Me: “…” Thank you, it's really difficult for you. And so, a global transhumanist crisis originating from an “ordinary person” like me, was handled by my family like it was nothing. As for me... I can finally live my "normal" college life with peace of mind. Um... probably so.{Read full at Nguyet Hoa Cac page} 11 With no outside threats, my family focused all their attention on my "internal life". The top goal is... the big life story. In my third year of college, my mother started hinting: "Du Du, is there any outstanding guy in your school?" "There's a guy in my department who looks quite handsome, but I heard that his family raises pigs." "What about raising pigs? Of the three hundred and sixty occupations, none of them have a poinsettia. Who knows, maybe they are descendants of Thien Bong Nguyen Soi." Me: “…Mom, your thinking is truly unique.” My father was more straightforward: "Daughter, if you care about someone, just tell me. I will investigate her three generations of ancestors, see if she is a loving person, what her morals are, what her family background is like... No, is her health good?" My brother - Lam Chien - was silent but made a "fatal" move: Silently hacked into the school's student records storage system, filtered all the male students' data, then created a detailed Excel table based on height, weight, academic achievement, whether or not there were records of violations... "Du Du, take a look. I have eliminated 99% that do not meet the requirements. The remaining 1%, you can try contacting." I looked at that dense data table and was dazzled. "Dad, mom, brother! I'm only third year! I don't want to fall in love!" I let out a cry of protest from the bottom of my soul. “How can that be!” My mother first objected: "You're normal like this, what if you don't find a boyfriend? I don't want you to be alone all your life." Me: “… Thank you for your ‘wish’.” My father: "That's right, a good girl like this must find the best man. Otherwise, I will go to heaven and find a star for you." down?" My brother: "Mortals have a short lifespan, so it's better to think about it early." I was pressured by the three of them sitting on the "three-way jury" to the point that I couldn't refute. And I realized that, in their eyes, I - a "normal person" - was not only physically weak and needed protection, but even my emotional life was in danger, needing them to urgently rescue me. I really... want to send my "sincere" thanks to everyone.
