Witch Special

Lin Zhenxi, after all, wasn't a native of this world, and her sensitivity to certain terms wasn't nearly as high as that of the indigenous people. So, when she spoke, she didn't realize that the word "explosion" in this world didn't simply mean the destruction of something by artificially causing an explosion.

It also represents the world's No. 1 S-class, the strongest and most mysterious human superhero, "Blast".

The same goes for "Tornado". When mentioning tornado, the first thing that comes to Lin Zhenxi's mind must be the tornado, and the second is the grumpy flat-chested green-haired legal loli. The indigenous people of this world will definitely not have such logic.

So even though Hayashi Maki didn't mean that at all, Child Emperor still misunderstood what Hayashi Maki said, and subconsciously thought that Hayashi Maki borrowed the power of mankind's strongest superhero "Blast" to accomplish a feat that neither he nor Metal Knight combined had accomplished.

If you think about it carefully, this kind of thing can only be accomplished by "blasting", right?

Lin Zhenxi's reaction was also quite quick. Seeing the strange look on Child Emperor's face, she immediately reflected on whether there was something wrong with what she said, and then realized that this sentence could actually have a double meaning.

But Hayashi Maki didn't bother explaining too much. She wasn't wrong anyway. Saitama had indeed exploded the meteorite, right? Saitama was the strongest person Hayashi had ever met, right? It was Child Emperor who had misunderstood, and Hayashi Maki wasn't about to clarify for someone else's misunderstanding.

So Lin Zhenxi just left.

Anyway, the problem of the meteorite has been solved, and this matter has come to an end for Lin Zhenxi. Although the subsequent post-processing is also a huge problem, that is something that the United Government and registered superheroes like Child Emperor need to consider. What does it have to do with big businessmen, big entrepreneurs, and rich people like Lin Zhenxi?

She had intervened to maintain public order in City Z when the city was in complete chaos, which was understandable. After all, the government was practically paralyzed at the time, so naturally, there wasn't much she could do. But if Bai Zhi didn't withdraw her forces from the city now that order was beginning to be restored, then the problem would be serious.

Lin Zhenxi only wanted to return home and had no desire for the political power of this world. So, all she had to do now was to reduce her power and minimize the impact of her overstepping her authority in managing the city. Therefore, whether it was the reconstruction and repair of City Z or any other city, Lin Zhenxi and her Baizhi would not participate.

Perhaps other companies will definitely not be absent at this time. After all, this is a great opportunity to win the favor of the people and the government. They only need to spend a little money to get the title of a conscientious company or conscientious entrepreneur. This is a sure-win business for those rich people who have no shortage of money but only lack reputation.

But Lin Zhenxi doesn't need all these. She has already made enough of a splash in this meteorite disaster. If she were to snatch work from the Z City Government now, the Z City Government would lose all its face.

Lin Zhenxi had absolutely no reason to do something that would be embarrassing, offensive, and thankless.

And compared with other cities, City Z is actually lucky enough.

After all, with Baizhi stepping in to maintain order throughout the city, coupled with the city's aging problem causing a lack of overall vitality, the city did not suffer any major damage in the chaos caused by the loss of government leadership. Even if there were some criminal activities, they were stopped by Baizhi employees wearing power armor who arrived in time.

Compared to those cities that have completely lost their law and order, everything is in chaos, and have basically been smashed to pieces, it is too easy for City Z to resume operations.

The high-ranking officials in City Z were actually quite hardworking, but their foundation was too weak. They had previously been unable to change the city's declining state even if they had wanted to. However, since Lin Zhenxi and Bai Zhi settled in City Z, they contributed a large amount of tax revenue to the municipal government, which has greatly increased the financial resources of the City Z government. Previously abandoned plans for public welfare facilities have been put back on the agenda.

With money on hand, we have the confidence to rebuild the city. In addition, there are not many places that need to be rebuilt, so it is estimated that City Z will be able to resume normal operations soon.

Such a situation would be impossible to happen in other cities, because the arrival of the world-destroying crisis has destroyed everyone's psychological bottom line. In this week, countless crimes have occurred, and too many buildings and facilities have been damaged in serious crimes. It will take more than a day or two to repair those facilities.

The more dangerous thing is not the destruction of infrastructure, but the collapse of people's hearts. After losing the shackles of the rule of law, not only ordinary people, but even heroes have committed crimes, some even completely breaking the bottom line and transforming into terrifying super criminals.

Now that the crisis of the meteorite destroying the world has been resolved, it is naturally time to settle accounts with the crimes, especially those heroes who should have been role models of moral behavior for citizens. Their criminal acts are taboos that absolutely cannot be tolerated.

After all, there are only a few people who are willing to plead guilty and be punished. After all, those who have committed serious crimes will most likely be sentenced to hundreds or even thousands of years in prison if they plead guilty, and will definitely be locked up in prison for the rest of their lives (after all, it is still relatively difficult to sentence them to death under the "democratic system").

Rather than spending their entire lives in prison, never to be free again, they might as well fight for their freedom. What's worse is that there are quite a few criminals who share this idea, and they even spontaneously unite to form a cross-city criminal organization.

Because many former heroes have joined, this organization is not short of high-end combat power, and even has a tendency to compete with the Hero Association.

Of course, the heroes who fall are ultimately small characters who are not worthy of being on the stage. At least the integrity of the highest-level heroes is still guaranteed, so the Hero Association has an absolute advantage in the top combat power.

There's not even a need for the S-class to show up, as those A-class heroes have simply beaten the super criminal organization into a rat in a ditch, forcing them to live in hiding and not dare to show up in public at all.

But now that it has appeared, it is difficult to eliminate it. The super criminal organization has become a stubborn disease hidden in many cities. I believe it will cause a lot of trouble to the coalition government in the future.

Moreover, because of the heroes' corruption, not only was the reputation of the Hero Association severely damaged, but there were also major gaps in staffing. In many cities, there was even a situation where there was not a single hero in an entire district. There were also a large number of vacancies with names crossed out in the hero rankings, which looked as ugly as a rag with holes in it.

Therefore, all the existing heroes who had persisted in their original intentions were promoted. However, this incident did not affect Saitama much, because not long ago, he had just been promoted from the top of C-rank to 99th in B-rank for his achievements in defeating the Centipede Elder.

This is actually a pretty good ranking, surpassing about 70% of peers around the world.

The top-ranked heroes all received generous allowances, and their daily living standards were quite high, so naturally they didn't have much accumulated resentment to vent. During this apocalyptic crisis, the heroes who didn't stick to their original intentions were generally ranked lower. The top-ranked heroes didn't change much, so Saitama only moved up from 99th to 87th in B-rank, a not very significant improvement.

Well, moving up 12 places is actually a pretty good result. After all, registering heroes is a very competitive industry. While you are working hard, your peers are also working hard. If you want to surpass your peers and improve your ranking, you need to work twice as hard as others.

But others are already working 996, so how can we surpass them? Of course, the only thing left is 007.

Saitama got 12 hero rankings for free this time, which can be said to be a huge profit.

This can be regarded as a reward from the Hero Association for these heroes who have stuck to their original aspirations and not made mistakes when humanity was most tested. After all, they have submitted such a beautiful answer sheet. How can it be justified not to give them some red flowers or something as a reward?

Of course, this is the heroes' business, and it is the Hero Association's power politics that control the heroes. It has nothing to do with Lin Zhenxi, a potential shareholder of the Hero Association.

Lin Zhenxi has been keeping to herself during this period, staying almost all the time in her magic tower. She has never appeared in public because there is no news to dig up. Even the most gossipy paparazzi are too lazy to pay attention to the news related to Lin Zhenxi and Baizhi, so she can almost be said to have completely disappeared from the public's sight. She is extremely low-key.

However, the things that Lin Zhenxi did will not disappear because of her deliberate low-keyness. On the contrary, Child Emperor knows how important a role Lin Zhenxi played in this crisis, and he selectively told the top leaders of the United Government what he knew afterwards.

Child Emperor hadn't revealed Hayashi Maki's ability to appear silently at any time, which was probably her trump card. However, Child Emperor believed that the United Government must know that Hayashi Maki was related to Blast.

Blast had been missing for a long time, but even so, his status as the premier superhero remained unshaken. Compared to other heroes, even to other S-class heroes, Blast seemed even more special. It was as if he had reached another realm, a level beyond the reach of all other heroes.

After all, Tornado, the No. 2 S-ranker, has never shown any intention of exchanging places with Blast, and Tornado has firmly held the second place without giving anyone the chance to surpass her. With Tornado, the signature figure of the Hero Association, being Blast's die-hard fan, who would dare to suggest that Blast should be removed from the hero rankings because of the fact that Blast has not had any public records of heroic activities for many years.

Be careful that the roof may be blown off by the tornado.

But now, Child Emperor has revealed that Lin Zhenxi, the newly emerged rich man, has a connection with Blast, who has been missing for several years. Naturally, this matter has attracted the attention of relevant departments.

Some interesting things also happened.
