Countless flashes lit up continuously. Han Baek-ho sat in the middle of the long white table with his eyes closed, his figure tall and straight. His terrifying physique, exceeding two and a half ters, was wrapped in a custom-made white suit. That kind of muscle far exceeded the level of bodybuilding ordinary humans could achieve through injecting hormones and other thods.
Han Baek-ho's short hair stood up straight, which was also not the effect ordinary people could achieve through styling with hair gel. All the hair on his body was like needles that could pierce out at any ti.
Reporters from Goryeo, Nihon, Bharat, the Western Continent, the Free Federation, and other countries were inexplicably excited, snapping pictures constantly. They knew very well that their reports today would definitely go down in human history.
Decades or even centuries from now, when humanity reviews this period of history, there is a high probability that their reports and signatures will appear.
The approximately 65 million years of human evolutionary history was now highly likely to welco a new node, the beginning of a new era that could stand alongside monts like humans walking upright for the first ti, humans using tools for the first ti, and so on.
[Ability Users], a brand new type of post-human transcending existing scientific explanations, had appeared and been confird!
Unlike various baseless rumors previously, and unlike the widely divergent alien legends of the past, the authenticity of the existence of these [Ability Users] had been successively recognized by the governnts of the Free Federation, Eastern Xia, Goryeo, and other countries.
And now, humanity's first [Ability User] agency was to be established in Goryeo.
Reporters even thought that perhaps from now on, everything that happened in those superhero movies and various fantasy stories would gradually beco reality.
Although there was currently no evidence to show whether these ability users possessed hereditary or other ans of transferring abilities, these reporters, as ordinary people, were still as excited as the billions of people waiting at various online live broadcast terminals.
Kim Wol-an sat in the second row. She wore glasses with very thick lenses, making it hard for people to see her pupils clearly.
But in her eyes, she could clearly see the subtle expressions of everyone, including the bobbing of Adam's apples and the dilation of pupils.
"Heh, these mortals are really too excited for their own good."
Her voice was very soft. A long-haired woman sitting next to her was obviously sowhat nervous and didn't pick up on this topic of [Mortals]. Among Reincarnators, there were indeed many who separated themselves from ordinary people.
Believing that powerful Reincarnators and ordinary humans were no longer the sa species, they used [Mortals] as a derogatory term.
[Red Carp] clutched her chest. She wore a loose black suit with a high-end white shirt inside and sunglasses. Her temperant was aloof, but her inner heart couldn't be as calm as Kim Wol-an's at all.
"Sister Wol-an, aren't you nervous..."
Kim Wol-an turned her head, puzzled, only to find Red Carp's face flushed, a manifestation of a rapidly beating heart. Frowning, she looked around and found that it wasn't just Red Carp; more than half of the Reincarnators in the agency showed nervousness at this ti.
Looking closely, one would find that Han Baek-ho, despite his extraordinary bearing, also had stiff muscles.
"You guys are actually all nervous?"
"Why?"
Kim Wol-an truly didn't understand. They were a group of Reincarnators, and more than half of them were "elites" who had broken through their limits and entered the Second Ladder, which ant they were extraordinary creatures in the Space's definition. Why would they be nervous in front of a group of mortals?
Red Carp knew that this Kim Wol-an was of the rather extre type of Reincarnator. She usually didn't think much of it, but at this ti, she actually sowhat admired this kind of person.
"The caras... Sister Wol-an, aren't you afraid?"
"At this ti, as long as we use a little out-of-bounds power, we'll probably be directly obliterated by the Space, right?"
"I heard from [Number 77] that right now, there are probably people in the hundreds of millions worldwide watching this press conference. A Purge Mission of that scale, even a monster like rcenary Tao would be dead for sure..."
Kim Wol-an frowned even deeper. She began to realize that even though they were all Reincarnators and had all joined this agency, there were still many idiots in this group who completely didn't realize the greatness of rcenary Tao's action.
Yes, Kim Wol-an used "greatness" to describe what Moon Demon and rcenary Tao were doing now.
She pushed her glasses fra, the corner of her mouth hooking up, making her originally delicate face unexpectedly appear eerie.
At this ti, Han Baek-ho had finished his self-introduction. His self-introduction was extrely simple.
[I am Han Baek-ho, an Ability User with a powerful body. From now on, I will protect this country. Loyalty~]
The Goryeo reporters on the scene acted as if they wanted to press their cara shutters until they broke, frantically capturing the facial details of Han Baek-ho.
The world's first Ability User agency, the world's first Ability User agency to protect a country, appeared in Goryeo!
This caused an extrely high volu of noise to erupt in this country, which desperately needed various things to allow its narrow-minded citizens to gain a sense of satisfaction.
Even in the neighborhoods not far away, cheers could be heard.
At this ti, a reporter from the Free Federation frowned, looking at Han Baek-ho. He spoke Goryeo, being a reporter stationed here. He waited until Councilor Han Yul-min, who was responsible for hosting this press conference on behalf of the agency, finished speaking, then imdiately raised his hand and luckily got the chance to ask a question.
"Hello, Mr. Han Baek-ho, and all you Ability Users. I would like to ask a question that perhaps hundreds of millions of people are very curious about at this very mont."
Han Baek-ho slowly exhaled. The warm breath from his nasal cavity actually carried a hint of red. The caran closest to him suddenly felt a chill down their spines, generating fear for no reason.
At this mont, the two people standing on the viewing platform above the lobby of this luxurious hotel were also watching this scene.
Li Qingzi's eyelids were lowered, without much warmth. Everything was within their expectations. Even if it failed, it would only an the deaths of a few useless Reincarnators.
Kaito Shirogane, however, leaned to the side, looking down leisurely, his eyes seeming to expect sothing interesting to happen.
After a slightly dull silence, Han Baek-ho finally nodded and said:
"Ask."
He knew the answer to that question, and simultaneously understood its danger.
But since he chose to step up to the front stage for this country, he already had the resolve to sacrifice his own life.
The Reincarnator he admired and envied the most was that Song Xian, whom many called [Hyena], who could openly warn Reincarnators not to do evil in Eastern Xia within the mixed-bag Infinite Dinsional Space.
Even though many considered him an idiot, he admired that kind of loyalty.
He always felt that in a person's life, there would always be so things higher than others.
The blond reporter nodded and spoke:
"Excuse , or rather, could you please perform for us what the so-called [Ability Users] can actually do?"
"Everyone knows that right now, there are still many people who think that [Ability Users] are just nonsense like aliens, magic shows, or video edits..."
"There is nothing more direct than presenting the truth of Ability Users in front of everyone through so many official caras on this occasion today."
Han Baek-ho looked at the constantly flashing caras, knowing this was the final test given by Miss Li Qingzi.
A Reincarnator, under the gaze of the whole world, using abilities...
Although this sounded like suicide, and he actually considered it suicide too, he still had to do it.
"Bang!"
A voice sounded from behind him. The blond reporter suddenly felt a pain in his forehead, his vision went dark, and he fell straight to the ground.
Kim Wol-an stood up amidst everyone's shocked expressions. She blew on her finger, then used it as a gun to point at the others, her smile hard to conceal.
"How is it? Do you still want to continue watching other ability performances?"
Han Baek-ho looked at Kim Wol-an, who had taken action, in astonishnt. Then his figure flashed, instantly leaping over the press conference table, quickly arriving in front of the blond reporter.
Pressing his hand down, he felt a heartbeat. Kim Wol-an hadn't killed him.
"Ah!"
Exclamations rose and fell, and the sound of cara shutters was even more constant.
Kim Wol-an spread her arms. Under everyone's gaze, she smiled incomparably proudly.
Her thinking was correct. These mortals really did regard them Reincarnators as [Ability Users], as another species.
By using abilities, she didn't trigger the regulations!
