World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 671 - 502: Joining the Hurricane Bureau (Two and One)_2
Chapter 671: Chapter 502: Joining the Hurricane Bureau (Two and One)_2
In the room, Beelu paid no attention to him and was absorbed in the TV program as if completely captivated.
The boss shuffled toward the bathroom, followed by the head of the Hurricane Bureau, Lune.
Lune stood there, observing the young man on the bed for a moment, before a smile appeared on his face.
He waved his hand at the people behind him and said to the motel owner:
"That’s enough, you’re not needed here anymore. You can leave now."
Like a man pardoned, the motel owner turned and dashed out the door with a speed unlike his arrival, as if afraid a moment’s delay would cost him his life.
It seemed only then did Beelu begin to react, turning his head to look at the blond man in front of him with confusion and asking:
"What’s going on? Weren’t you here to fix the plumbing? Where did the boss go?"
"Click~"
As his words fell, the door to the room was suddenly shut from the outside.
Lune straightened the slight wrinkles on his clothes and naturally took a seat, fingers resting on the back of his hand, his gaze intent on the man in front of him.
"Mr. Bryan, I think it’s time we had a talk."
It was then that Beelu, as if waking from a dream, quickly stood up from the bed, his eyes wary.
"Who are you? Weren’t you here to fix the plumbing?"
His reaction was exactly like that of an everyday homebody with no experience in danger.
Seeing this, a slight smile appeared on Lune’s face.
He first extended a hand to calm Beelu, who looked ready to jump out the window at any moment, then spoke with an assured tone:
"Let me introduce myself, I’m Lune, the head of the Hurricane Bureau. You must have seen our people last time at the Home Apartment..."
"Oh, and by the way, if I were you, I wouldn’t try jumping out that window. The five streets outside are all surrounded by our lovely warriors."
Panic flickered across Beelu’s face as he forced himself to ask calmly:
"You’re tracking me! What do you want?"
"What do we want?"
Lune stood up, the smile on his face brighter as he confidently approached the black man and extended his right hand.
"Beelu, I think you’re misunderstanding something. We are not your enemy. Have you ever seen the Avenger movies?"
"..."
Two hours later, in a secret base of the Hurricane Bureau on the outskirts of New York City.
This was Beelu’s first visit to such a place, and looking down at the various weapons, even with his mental training, he couldn’t help feeling an inner tension.
During that time, Lune had extended an invitation to join the Hurricane Bureau.
He made it clear that the Bureau had no intention of dissecting him or anything of that sort; those were paranoid delusions circulating on the internet.
The truth was exactly that.
As a Transcendent who operated independently and a bona fide citizen of New York City, Beelu’s background had already been thoroughly investigated by their intelligence agency, entirely without issue.
For such a catch, the Hurricane Bureau naturally preferred recruitment.
Even in the case of any physical examinations or research, it would be limited to blood draws at most. There was no possibility of anything as extreme as dissection.
Beelu also showed a skeptical demeanor at first but slowly got persuaded by the sincere offer and finally nodded hesitantly, agreeing to their request.
"Huff~"
He sighed deeply in his heart.
Recalling each word spoken by the Transcendent who seemed to possess Insight into humanity, atop that nameless peak, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration.
Indeed, everything had unfolded exactly as the other had predicted.
The response of the Hurricane Bureau, the people who came to recruit him, and even the sentences they used during their conversation, were all anticipated by that man, as if it were all a prophecy.
Next, Beelu only needed to follow the pre-rehearsed plan, doing what he needed to do and slowly pass the message along to that group of people.
Of course, some information about the monsters also had to be relayed back to the organization, all in order for them to combat the monsters more effectively.
In the Hurricane Bureau’s New York City base, Lune was in quite a good mood, having been busy and finally receiving some good news in recent days.
He was very happy to have recruited such a Transcendent.
The beginning is always the hardest; once this first step was taken, there would be a second, and a third...
He believed he would soon have a team composed of Transcendents.
Just thinking about that person he had seen on the mysterious island sent ripples through his heart.
Such beings were simply not human.
The terrifying insect swarm was eradicated by him alone.
If such Strength were placed among Super Heroes, it would be incredibly daunting.
It was after returning from that day that Lune intensified his search for Transcendents.
Having witnessed such terrifying Strength, he now urgently wished to have his own team of Transcendents.
However, nearly all the intelligence personnel within the Hurricane Bureau were already working nonstop 24 hours a day but had not discovered any real incidents involving a Transcendent.
Until the appearance of this African-American youth, who could shatter a monster’s head with a single punch.
In the office, Lune and Beelu sat opposite each other, with Lune personally making a cup of coffee for the latter, showing a very amiable demeanor.
"Beelu, I know you might have had some misunderstandings about us before, but don’t worry, from now on you can consider this place your home. Working for the Hurricane Bureau is also working for the benefit of all of humanity. Our goal is to eliminate those horrifying monsters, and for this, I hope you can help us with all your Strength," Lune said.
Beelu nodded, though he couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.
"Heh... for the benefit of all of humanity?"
Having already seen the power wielded by that mysterious organization, Beelu now found Lune’s grand statements somewhat laughable.
Still, Beelu remembered the words taught to him by that man, his face showing a hint of longing and excitement, resembling an overeager teenager unable to hide his fervor.
Seeing this expression on Beelu’s face, Lune silently nodded to himself, and then casually flipped through some papers in front of him, which contained the data from Beelu’s recent physical examination and tests.
"Hmm... Beelu, there’s something I’d like to confirm with you. You’ve just undergone some training related to Extraordinary Power, but it seemed to me that you weren’t using your full Strength. The power you displayed surely surpasses human limits, but it seems to fall short of what you demonstrated back at Home Apartment," he noted.
Beelu looked confused upon hearing this.
He glanced slightly backward from the corner of his mouth, furrowed his brows, and his gaze involuntarily drifted towards his own hands.
"I don’t know, sir. That day when those monsters appeared around me, I had never seen such horrifying creatures before, I didn’t want to die... At that moment, I felt a surge of Strength well up inside me, but I don’t know what happened. Afterward, I started to weaken again and lost those Abilities..." Beelu responded.
"Oh? A Burst in a crisis Situation? But it could also be an amplification during an Awakening of Extraordinary Power. It seems we will need to conduct tests in this area in the future..." Lune considered.
Lune nodded, already formulating an explanation in his mind.
He didn’t dwell on the matter, instead pulling Beelu into a more earnest and extended conversation.
From talking about everyday life in the future at the base, to discussing the honor and responsibility of combating monsters, Lune was like an uncle who had guidance and talk for every topic.
