My Ability Is Role-playing-Chapter 238 - 237: Execution! Academic Society Builds Momentum!

The era is changing, the world is developing.

The widespread promotion of Burning Martial Inner Qi has given everyone the possibility to become Extraordinary.

But fundamentally, it is to enhance the overall quality of the citizens and the ability to resist foreign invaders.

Over the past few months, aliens have been landing on Earth with malicious intent, and recently, the situation has intensified, no longer possible to conceal.

The promotion of Inner Qi also serves as a measure to soothe people's hearts from certain aspects.

All along, the Earth side has been taking blows without a way to retaliate. People's hearts had long been filled with resentment, unable to vent.

In the short term, it's still fine, at least within China.

After all, the people living on this land have been diligent and honest for generations.

Unless unable to survive, they rarely stir up trouble.

There is no soil here for ambitionists to grow.

But over time, that's another story.

The current Earth is in a special stage.

Calling it a new era of the Extraordinary, the majority agree.

Many young people with some spare money and savings even choose to resign, go home, and enter secluded cultivation, swearing not to leave until they achieve something significant.

But...

To say now is the "eve of doom" is completely reasonable too.

After all, the aliens with menacing eyes are real, and apart from Eternal Civilization, no one can clearly explain the backgrounds or origins of other alien invaders.

The more unknown, the more it causes panic and fear.

The Super Bureau has done a great job in propaganda, with great force and excellent results.

Many potential ambitionists with small calculations have chosen to return home and practice hard, to first achieve real skills before making plans.

There are masses of people wanting to "make a career" in the new era, so why acknowledge others as bosses and not start a venture themselves?

First, you need skills that convince people.

These skills can be reputation, status, wealth, or power!

In the past, the word "power" purely meant "authority."

Human individual combat power in front of technological weapons was so small and insignificant, almost laughable.

Even world-class boxing champions, underground boxing emperors, and champions of various large-scale combat events, in front of a well-trained, fully armed soldier, are just a matter of a bullet burst.

No matter how formidable, no one can withstand more than a few rounds of bullets.

Of course, small-caliber police pistols don't count.

Those things are just for laughs.

Even a slightly thicker layer of fat can prove that taking more than a dozen shots doesn't matter.

The coming of the new era, one of the most significant features is the change of weapons equipped by "order keepers."

All maintainers who passed secondary business training ensuring no ideological issues are now using large-caliber firearms.

It might not be that effective against aliens.

But...

Shooting a bullet to kill a cow, or a two-meter-tall, muscular man, is not a problem.

Ensuring a one-shot kill, no need for a second shot.

Now, power can refer specifically to "individual combat power," and no one finds it ridiculous anymore.

The top Extraordinary Ones' capabilities are publicized by various countries worldwide.

In this context, the invaders of Eternal Civilization are hitting a snag.

The public execution of these prisoners is, on one hand, in line with the trend of the times, reducing social resentment and boosting morale.

On the other hand...

It is typifying Ma Ran, creating momentum for the group "Academic Society members."

This execution is just the beginning.

President Huang Weiguo has already revealed to Ma Ran and Su Qiangwei that—soon, under the influence of policies, public opinion, and the social environment, "entering the Academic Society" will gradually become a hundred times more prestigious than "entering a prestigious university!"

"Time's up!"

Old Huang said loudly and clearly with full breath, "The execution begins."

The main course is served right at the start!

The deeds of the Pursuer and Crimson Hammer, these two "Title Holders," have been publicly disclosed in recent days.

People know these two are big figures among the aliens.

"Ah..."

The Pursuer, who had been immersed in his own world, suddenly woke up: "Is it time to die?"

He suddenly raised his head, trying hard to look at Ma Ran, and said in extremely standard Mandarin, "After accessing the Thirteenth Rank of Inner Qi materials, though I had not much time for cultivation, I faintly felt that my lifespan was slowly increasing!"

"Prophet, you are indeed the same as the rumors say, valuing promises and integrity!"

"Though we stand on different grounds, I respect a person like you!"

"You gave me the hope of eternal life!"

"Alas, alas..."

"No time left to practice."

The Pursuer sighed, a satisfied smile appearing on his plain face: "There's a saying on Earth—morning knows the way, evening can die!"

"Now, even if I die now, it's worth it!"

"I die on the path chasing eternal life."

"This is my best ending!"

"This is my most perfect curtain call!"

Boom!

Inner Qi lingers, white smoke swirling.

In the blink of an eye, Ma Ran, dressed in a black coat with silver edges, held a two-meter-long crimson wandering dragon Straight-Blade Tang Blade.

Under the blade's point, the Pursuer felt his soul trembling.

"Prophet...

He took a deep breath and said loudly, "If reincarnation truly exists, I hope next life, I can follow behind you and continue down the path I couldn't finish this life."

Last words settled.

Ma Ran emotionlessly swung the Tang Blade single-handedly.

Swish!

The crimson blade light swept past.

A head separated from the remaining body, soaring high before falling to the ground a moment later.

The Golden Dragon gently sang.

The Pursuer's soul thus annihilated.

He once had a spectacular past.

Once extinguished a civilization by his own hands, countless intelligent beings died because of him, though some benefited from him.

But...

The Pursuer's journey ends here.

His story is marked with a sad ending.

He falls into true, eternal death.

Eternal Civilization's technology can't resurrect him again.

So those watching this public execution felt a tingling on their scalp hearing Pursuer's words.

Even warriors who personally participated in the Grass Hut Battle and Lead Prison Guardians who had close contact with the Pursuer felt chills all over.

The Pursuer's monologue showed everyone a guy ten, even a hundred times crazier than the Extremely Effective Monarch!

He didn't use his brain well.

Easily tricked and deceived, played successively by the Extremely Effective Monarch and Ma Ran.

But just like he said...

His pursuit of eternal life, viewing this goal as the entire value of his existence, he followed it to life's end.

Such a guy...

Too terrifying!

Thankfully, he died early.

Watching the Pursuer die, the Crimson Hammer felt no sympathy, only a sense of clarity and comfort all over.

The only pity is that the Extremely Effective Monarch isn't present.

Otherwise, his curtain would be even more perfect.

The Crimson Hammer glared viciously at Ma Ran, speaking with determination: "During captivity, I didn't provide you with any information!"

"I chose to die rather than submit, and after being harmed by Earthlings..."

"The 'Crimson Hammer' title will be recorded in Eternal Civilization's history, in a way, that's truly 'eternal life!'"

Life in this world is about fame, status, wealth, beauty, and longevity.

If what Crimson Hammer says is genuine, then he could at least be satisfied in the 'fame' aspect.

"You guys underestimate the Mysterious Research Institute and the Extremely Effective Monarch!"

"Earth Civilization will not end well!"

"Kill me!"

Ma Ran's lips curled slightly, a hint of a smile spread across his eyes.

He raised the Tang Blade high, pointing towards the sky, and spoke in a calm tone without revealing the other's mind: "As you wish."

Swish.

The blade light fell.

Crimson Hammer's head and body were split in half vertically.

Like the Pursuer, he died on the spot, body and soul annihilated.
