Phantasmal Genesis

Chapter 28: Profile

Ive never created such a profile.

The mans spoke powerlessly with an inaudible sigh.

He flipped through the information and images in front of his desk, and after a while, he drew a cold breath.

In 15 days, the scale increased to 7,600 people. I didnt expect such a special power to be hidden in the world.

After a moment, the man slowly opened his mouth.

If, all of this happened because of me.

Fifteen days ago, or even before that, I suddenly realised that I obtained a superpower. And because I was a normal human, faced with such unimaginable power, I used it again and again in my amazement

After a series of testing, I was familiarised with this special power, and grew tired of living an ordinary persons life. I wanted to use this ability to change my life

My hesitation lasted for a long time, I was afraid of being one of the many ability wielders that lived in this large country

Im a smart man, I knew the advantages of patience and prepared for a long time. I allowed the first four thousand people to come into contact with my ability, because of my interest in Pokmon Go, the first pets I created

With my scheme, my small movements would be eluded by the eyes of the upper social classes when this city eventually falls into confusion

The ordinary me, who is hidden in cloudy waters, would be able to do what I wanted. Such as, earning money

The man rubbed the spot between his eyebrows, sighing deeply.

Male, 1.75 metres tall, with hobbies including comics, 2D, and novels, within the age of 22 to 25 years old, reclusive, poor but not too desperate for money, lives alone, a careful and smart person with a previous run in with the police.

I tried my best, Im sorry but Ive never come across such a profile. After he finished speaking, the man took the cup from the table and swallowed its contents.

Li Shuo was deep in thought, and he looked up at the man and asked, How did you guess that this man had a run in with the police before?

Li Shuo was observant enough to recognise that this was an important piece of information.

The man organised his thoughts, it was as if he was confused himself, Its an instinct, when I assumed the state of this persons mind, I felt a pair of eyes staring at all of you as if it was familiar with this entire process.

You know this, the fact that every profiler believes in his instincts.

Instinct? Li Shuo mumbled.

Instinct was often called the sixth sense, and it was a part of ones subconscious.

In an average life, a persons subconscious was capable of accepting information that was multiple times of their consciousness. It was widely accepted that in certain situations, humans would feel a strange feeling because of it.

In normal circumstances, profiling training required the profiler to interact with countless types of people in society. And in the profilers subconscious, they would absorb information that was much greater than the average person in this process. Once something was triggered, the relevant information would burst forth as instinct.

That is simply my guess, Chief Li can treat my words as nonsense and forget it. The man shrugged his shoulders.

Despite the fact that profilers were systematically used in investigations, there were countless people in this world, and even the best profiler wouldnt be able to match profiles perfectly with every case.

It wasnt as if there was a superpower for this.

No, I believe you.

Li Shuo called for his men to enter and retrieve the information before this man. After giving his orders to his underlings, he stood up and looked at the man.

The effects of this incident are still snowballing, more and more people are becoming players unknowingly, and no one knows if this is due to extraterrestrial forces or another countrys technology. This is our 15th profile today, and at least it seems like we have a trace from this. Li Shuo had a bitter smile, no one could understand the pressure of his position, and he was close to going crazy soon if he didnt find a clue.

This wasnt comparable to a theft case!

It involved more than seven thousands of lives, and if something went wrong, or even because of a small mistake, these lives could be gone in seconds.

Just the thought of it made Li Shuos scalp tingle, and he tried to suppress his thinking.

Chief! Theres a report of the appearance of a humanoid monster!

What? Li Shuo looked at the person who barged in with confusion.

This person had an incredibly flustered expression, and after a moment of calming himself down, he spoke again, A player! It was a player! He said that he saw humanoid monsters appearing!! As he spoke, his exuberance gushed out from his voice.

Li Shuo was shocked, according to the information provided by players, every single player had only fought against a monster called [Giant Praying Mantis], a level three monster that anyone could kill easily regardless of their level.

And this experience was similar to online games, it allowed for their pets to rise in levels, and increase in size and strength. However, not a single player had increased in experience.

Weaklings were still weaklings.

Countless players complained of fighting level 3 giant praying mantises at level 10.

Are you the one who witnessed the appearance of the humanoid monsters? Li Shuo asked Wang Yang with a furrowed brow.

He didnt understand why 80% of the players were students.

This meant that they couldnt control these players, and it caused a lot of problems for their jobs.

This was why he was full of disbelief every single time, was it a hallucination? Or maybe a cosplayer walked by?

Just last time, a student said that he had discovered a new monster, and when they went to check it out with their guns and explosives, bringing a great number of players with them, they came to find out that it was just a really well designed figurine

That incident uncontrollably resurfaced in his mind, and he couldnt help but doubt the students words.

If its another high quality figurine

You must believe me! I even saw them communicate with a language from another world! Do you understand? They have their own language! Wang Yang shouted, he was extremely agitated.

Language? He was shocked.

Wang Yang could figure it out, so how wouldnt Li Shuo, the chief of the public security bureau, figure it out?!

A language created by a civilised society, under the expectations of a humans intelligence, meant that it had a history of at least a thousand years!

Where are they!? After a brief pause, Li Shuo raised his hands and shouted, Xiao Wang! Notify the rest! Inform every player to stand by!

Even with their guns, they couldnt damage the phantasies no matter how much they shot. According to the official guidelines, when faced with an abnormal situation, the polices first action would be to notify all players to standby.

This was similar to the time when the monster that could threaten reality appeared, they had notified thousands of people.

However, they also had to be prepared for the situation that every single one of them would lose
