"The Hero Association stated today that considering the powerful ability of the villain 'Mist' to threaten Shadow Walker head-on, it has officially designated her as S-class."

In the living room, Xu Qinghan was lying on the floor as usual, watching the news on TV and talking to himself.

"Oh, I have become S-class."

She smiled softly, seemingly not surprised.

"Hmph, but that's the case. My little follower Yue Yan is also S-level."

Zhao Lingwei, who intentionally or unintentionally sat between Lin Ange and Xu Qinghan, blocking their sight, was eating ice cream and making unclear sounds.

The news on the TV continued: "At the same time, the Shadow League has become an organization with two S-class villains, Misty and Moonlight Priestess."

"Huh? Is it just me and little sister Yueyan who are S-level?"

"Yeah, it's really unfair. I'm obviously good at hacking and have built a mecha that can almost defeat Xingyuan. Why am I still only A-level?" Zhao Lingwei shook her head, seeming a little dissatisfied with the result.

However, her complaints didn't last long, and she quickly returned to her previous leisurely state, continuing to enjoy her ice cream.

"At the same time, netizens are also very curious as to why Yuying, the leader of the Shadow Alliance who has two S-level villains under his command, is still only A-level..."

"Why are you still A-level?" After hearing what was said on the TV, Xu Qinghan glanced at Lin Ange curiously and asked.

"Don't you know? The last application submitted to the International Committee was not approved. The International League of Heroes did not recommend that I be promoted to S-level, so the matter has been put on hold for the time being."

"oh."

Lin Ange looked at Xu Qinghan and found that she seemed to have lost interest in this topic, and her lazy expression returned to her face.

"The next big news, rumors about the love between Yuying and Miwu have been fermenting in the Peninsula Federation for a week..."

Hearing this mentioned on the TV, Xu Qinghan, who was lying on the ground and seemed about to fall into a deep sleep, suddenly widened his eyes, stood up at lightning speed, quickly grabbed the remote control, and changed the channel.

At the same time, Zhao Lingwei was looking at Xu Qinghan with a strange smile. That smile seemed to contain some deep meaning, which made people shudder.

Xu Qinghan, who was changing channels at the speed of light, pointed at the TV with a slight cold sweat on his forehead: "Haha... let's watch some overseas news and pay attention to the international situation."

"The Chihuahuan Desert in South America has been completely turned into a restricted area for humans. Red lightning is constantly striking, making it completely impassable. It is still unclear why..."

"A villain and weirdo claiming to be the 'Reincarnation of the Pharaoh' appeared on the Mediterranean coast. The local Heroes Association declared a state of emergency, only to find that many people chose to support and follow this so-called 'Pharaoh'..."

"The Eiffel Tower has once again become the target of terrorist attacks. It has been attacked dozens of times in the past three years, with a damage rate of more than 60%. Repair work is currently underway."

Looking at this piece of news, there is no doubt that the world is steadily moving towards the edge of chaos.

Although hero associations everywhere are doing their best to deal with the frequent occurrences of terrorism, as people with increasingly powerful abilities begin to cause more terrorist incidents, the order of the world seems to be becoming increasingly difficult to maintain.

Although some people choose to stand up and become heroes after seeing the evil deeds of villains, the growth rates of the two sides are very different.

Every time ten villains are added, it is unknown whether there will be one more hero.

Lin Ange took a deep breath and stood up, thinking to himself: "Maybe now we should go see Han Xueli and arrange that matter."

Seeing Lin Ange suddenly stand up, Zhao Lingwei asked: "Brother, where are you going again?"

Lin Ange smiled slightly and replied: "Just going to discuss some business."

After speaking, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Han Xueli's number.

Soon after, Lin Ange sat on a luxurious chair in the top-floor office of Yaoyang Group. Sitting opposite him was Han Xueli, who looked slightly haggard but still smiling.

"After such a long time, the situation on your side should have improved, right?" Lin Ange asked.

Han Xueli stretched out and responded: "Yes, now I control almost all large enterprises in the country."

"Oh, really?"

"Of course it's true." A trace of pride flashed in Han Xueli's eyes, "The most difficult thing to deal with is the third largest enterprise group after Zhitu Group and our Yaoyang Group. But thanks to the information you sent me, I successfully sent their president to jail, which makes everything much easier to handle. After I finish handling the subsequent trivial matters, I can devote myself to the political field."

Lin Ange nodded in praise, secretly pleased in his heart.

...Sure enough, although the speed was slightly slower, Han Xueli still gradually took control of the Peninsula Federation just like in the original work.

The greater Han Xueli's influence, the more beneficial it is for him. When the world line gradually approaches the later stages of the original work, having a powerful ally will undoubtedly be a big help.

Han Xueli seemed to enjoy Lin Ange's compliments, but then she seemed to suddenly think of something, her face sank slightly, and she said with a smile that was not smiling at all: "By the way, Ange, I seem to have heard a lot about you lately. Woolen cloth."

"Oh? What news?"

"I heard that you seem to have a girlfriend?"

Lin Ange waved his hands and denied, "Oh, you said that. Miwu was just a joke at the time. There was nothing between us."

"Really?" Han Xueli seemed a little unconvinced.

"Of course it's true." Lin Ange smiled, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who has time to date?"

Hearing Lin Ange's denial, Han Xueli seemed to be relieved.

"It's true, I think for people like us, dating just wastes our time and reduces our work efficiency." She said with a hint of meaning.

"By the way, do you know the reason why I came to see you this time?" Lin Ange asked softly, feeling that it was time to get to the point.

"...Well, because you want to come see me?"

Lin Ange smiled and shook his head, "Haha, I didn't expect you to make such a joke. Of course it's because of work. As I told you last time, let's do a business together."

"Oh, that..."

After hearing this, Han Xueli began to look through the information in her hand. After a while, she found a document and handed it to Lin Ange.

"I have already done an investigation, but it involves some legal issues, because there is no precedent, and I can't be sure what the consequences will be..."

Lin Ange took the document and said while flipping through it: "I understand that what we are doing is unprecedented. When the time comes, we will not only recruit people, but also be responsible for cultivating their abilities."

"Yes, I have asked my subordinates to complete the company registration procedures, but Ange, are you really sure you want to do this?" Han Xueli's tone revealed a hint of worry.

Lin Ange nodded firmly, "Yes, considering the future development, we have to try it no matter what."

"...Okay, now that you have said so, I will fully support you."

Later, Lin Ange and Han Xueli had an in-depth conversation amidst the fragrance of tea, discussing future plans in detail.

In the second half of the original work, the security problems of the Peninsula Federation became increasingly severe and were almost on the verge of collapse.

Among them, B-level and C-level villains are weak in individual strength and unable to plan large-scale destruction, but they are still unmatched by ordinary people. As time goes by, these low-level villains have sprung up, making the Hero Association Tired of coping, public security fell into chaos.

What’s even more troublesome is that due to the meager income of low-level heroes, and the extremely harsh demands of public opinion on them, they may suffer violent criticism if they are negligent. Therefore, the number of heroes has never been able to effectively grow, but more and more People choose to take the path of villains.

Lin Ange understands that in the days to come, such trivial and frequent incidents will occur one after another. Although the threat is not great, someone must deal with it.

He was determined to find a solution before chaos broke out, and recruiting and centrally managing these future villains was exactly what he came up with. This would not only help maintain law and order, but also serve as a backup force to deal with potential trouble.

At this time, Han Xueli's role becomes particularly important. She can use capital and social status to attract these people to join.

Lin Ange also believed that as the future controller of the Peninsula Federation, Han Xueli would not want to see her sphere of influence fall into chaos.

As a result, the two discussed in depth the plan to establish a security company, recruit future villains, and Han Xueli's grand blueprint for conquering the Peninsula Federation.

After the meeting, Lin Ange returned home with confidence.

He knew that this was not something that could be accomplished overnight and required a long period of preparation and planning, but he was already prepared to operate and manage the company as Lin Ange.

Anyway, Xingyuan already knew that such a person existed, so there would be no problem in acting in this capacity.

After returning home, Lin Ange summoned everyone and announced the next action plan.

"This time, we are going to eliminate another villain."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lingwei's eyes flashed with excitement, and she couldn't help but sigh: "Wow, the last time such an action was taken was when the teleporter was eliminated, right? It feels like it's been a long time."

"...Hey, are you still doing this kind of thing? Isn't this the job of a hero?" Deng Yaxuan glanced at Lin Ange with confusion.

Lin Ange smiled and explained: "Yaxuan, it seems you don't know me well enough. This is my old skill. I think I got the title of A-level villain by hunting other villains back then."

Deng Yaxuan blinked, seemingly in disbelief: "Really?"

Seeing this, Zhao Lingwei confirmed from the side: "That's true. I helped him at that time. At that time, I was the only one beside him."

"...Huh? Lingwei, have you forgotten me?"

"Ah, that's right! Sister Xinxin was indeed here at that time. I kind of forgot about it." Zhao Lingwei patted her forehead and smiled awkwardly.

Afterwards, everyone began to get busy and prepare for the upcoming action.

Lin Ange was still thinking about another thing in his mind: during this operation, should he explain the recent scandal via live broadcast?

Although the news was indeed annoying, it was not a serious problem that required an explanation. He secretly thought, if he couldn't find the right time, maybe it wouldn't matter if he didn't explain it, right?

At the same time, in the spacious and bright office of the Heroes Association, Li Xingran was sitting at a brand new desk, looking calm and focused.

She folded her arms on her chest, turned her back to the warm sunlight streaming in through the window, and fell into deep thought.

"...I must capture Yuying at all costs."

She whispered to herself, her voice revealing an unquestionable determination.

And her eyes seemed to be ignited unconsciously, shining with a fiery light.
