Chen Mo's life takes an unexpected turn when he stumbles upon a strange shard of jade—one that has the mysterious ability to summon monsters.

Superpower Investigation Team

The Superpower Investigation Team is a science fiction and suspense novel that centers around superpowered individuals and unfolds around global crises. The story is set in a near-future world where governments of various countries secretly established organizations of superpowered individuals to deal with special incidents. Through multi-linear narrative, the novel weaves together the grand themes of individual fates and the survival of the Earth, with a compact plot full of suspense. Background and Beginning In the near future, due to the frequent occurrence of supernatural phenomena on Earth, countries established secret organizations to manage superpowered individuals. For example, China's "Special Incident Response Department" (abbreviated as "SIRD"). However, the sudden actions of the mysterious organization "Ace" shattered the balance. They assembled top combat forces at the Eye of the Sahara (a geological wonder in the Sahara Desert) and publicly issued a provocation to the global superpower community, claiming to possess the secret that could subvert human civilization. At the same time, the consciousness of the Earth (the personified will of the Earth) issued a prophecy to the protagonist, Lei Ting, stating that the Eye of the Sahara was the "Land of Destiny" and that he must go there to deal with the crisis. Main Characters and Conflicts 1. Lei Ting: Once a top agent of the SIRD, he retired due to differences in ideology and was later chosen by the consciousness of the Earth to be a key figure. He has the ability to manipulate electromagnetic force but is forced to be involved in the incident due to the troubles of his prophetic dreams. 2. Chen Xichen: The only superpowered individual in China at the "Top Transcendent" realm. After retirement, he was urgently recalled and led the international joint investigation team to confront "Ace". He represents the game between traditional power and emerging crises. 3. The "Ace" Organization: The members are code-named with letters (such as K, Q). Its leader, K, colludes with external forces and attempts to use the energy of the Eye of the Sahara to achieve "dimensional transition", but the true purpose remains elusive. 4. The Consciousness of the Earth: Appearing in the image of a young girl, it endows some superpowered individuals with special abilities (such as Corimlan's "Nature Regulation"). However, its stance is ambiguous, as it both protects humanity and manipulates fate.
