I'm the boss because I have a harem of anime characters.

There are countless similar examples, and poor countries like Laos are powerless to deal with the chaos caused by superhumans, and don't even have the idea, with government agencies simply giving up.

At this moment, the University of Tokyo is willing to help them and will not take advantage of the situation to kill them. They are like saints. As long as they stand firmly on the side of the University of Tokyo, they will definitely get some benefits as well as the benefits from the University of Tokyo. They will never have to worry about being left to wash dishes on an empty stomach. This is the way to achieve sustainable development.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the latest standard maglev track of Southeast University was laid. Currently, Southeast University is also carrying out the construction of a new version of maglev in China. The biggest advantage of the new maglev is that it can carry both people and goods on the same track without distinguishing between light and heavy vehicles, which is convenient for later maintenance.

The new maglev train, named the "Speed ​​Series," can reach a top speed of 1,120 kilometers per hour, taking only 2.5 hours to travel from Beijing to Urumqi. If it could cross Eurasia and be laid directly to Paris, the journey from Beijing to Paris by maglev would take less than 30 hours.

The speed of land transportation has now surpassed that of old-fashioned commercial airliners and subsonic transport aircraft, and with the widespread adoption of maglev technology, air transport and air passenger transport will inevitably suffer a heavy blow.

Because, except for places that railways cannot reach, the coverage area and arrival accuracy of maglev exceed those of airports. Airports can only cover large cities at most, but railways can directly cover the city level, and if needed, even the district level. With the cost savings brought about by the popularization of new technologies, everyone's domestic travel will become more convenient. For colleagues who frequently travel for work, it is entirely possible to go to Urumqi in the morning and go home to sleep in the afternoon.

Overall, the rewards from the abyss far outweigh the losses, and Qin Shan at least achieved this in this lifetime.

Qin Shan: "Lexington, what's the rate of supernatural crimes in the country?"

"It's very low, less than one percent, and they're all crimes of passion. For example, when two people are fighting, one of them might suddenly awaken supernatural powers and kill or seriously injure the other. There aren't any intentional crimes because the public security organs have many departments specifically targeting supernatural crimes. If a supernatural crime occurs, the perpetrator can usually be apprehended within two days. However, most awakened supernatural individuals who commit crimes accidentally choose to turn themselves in."

"Hmm, not bad. It seems the government is controlling things very well, and the people are willing to cooperate."

It would be a miracle if things went wrong, after all, Qin Shan has been keeping a close eye on things from the shadows. Any social conflicts will be exposed through JinYan.com in the first instance, and JinYan.com does not have a post deletion function. Once it is posted, it is posted. If it is wrong or posted on a whim, it will be a permanent black mark on your history.

The benefit of this is that as long as Qin Shan keeps an eye on Golden Eye Network and investigates the social conflicts that arise, he can find out the truth in no time. If the government does not intervene during this period, hehehe, the Avengers, start!

Sacrificing a few powerful officials would make the rest much easier to resolve.

So now it's not just Qin Shan keeping an eye on Jin Yan Net, the authorities are too, countless eyes are on Jin Yan Net, any hot topic will immediately be noticed and dealt with by the authorities. In order to ensure that the handling is fair and open, completely eliminate the conflict, and prevent the avengers from appearing to clear the field, the bureaucrats have exerted 1000% of their fighting power. All the officials who used to just coast along have disappeared, and those who remain are truly passionate people who are willing to do something for the people.

The old bureaucratic atmosphere has been completely swept away. After all, if the issues that appeared on the Golden Eye website are not dealt with, or if the follow-up is not handled well, the public will protest strongly, and there is a high probability that avengers will emerge. Under such circumstances, pursuing the ultimate social fairness means maximizing benefits and minimizing losses. Officials are very good at weighing the issues of life and money.

Since the government's credibility has reached such a level of fairness and transparency, the people naturally have no complaints. Those who do complain are the real troublemakers, and the people themselves will criticize them mercilessly without the government's intervention.

The people may not understand something, but they are definitely not stupid. If you really think that ordinary people are easy to fool, please refer to the Kuomintang.

To put it bluntly, many things are a case of the higher-ups having ideas, the middle lacking motivation, and the lower-ups just going through the motions. In this world, most people are just trying to get by. If public power isn't supervised, then people's laziness will take over. Who wants to run around all day when they can make money lying down?

However, the supervision of public power has been greatly increased, and there is also a spontaneous resistance force among the people, which can ensure the deterrent effect of this force. After all, the strength of the Avengers is a one-time burst that can be extremely exaggerated. It is absolutely no problem for them to suppress the superhumans on Earth. There have been superhumans who have sided with corrupt officials before, and Qin Shan will naturally not tolerate such situations. He manipulates the Avengers to kill them instantly, so that these superhumans will also learn some rules.

You can choose to stand with the people or with the devil.

"Based on the current trend, extraordinary individuals from various countries who want to achieve better development must make a pilgrimage to Tokyo University."

Qin Shan's assistance was not without bias. So what if he favored his own country? His bias wasn't the kind of blatant fabrication that Europe and America made up. Besides, Dongda University received the best gifts and was also subject to the strictest supervision. Dongda University was far ahead of other countries in terms of the frequency of Avengers and the proportion of officials killed or injured in the early stages. This continued until those greedy and arrogant guys were all dead and kicked out.

Completely eradicating it is unrealistic, but we can maintain high-pressure supervision. Isn't the current situation good enough?

In any case, recent public opinion polls show that the happiness level of the people at the University of Tokyo is very high—a genuine happiness, not the kind of happiness that's merely superficial. We emphasize authenticity and absolutely do not exaggerate. Once the University of Tokyo achieves these things, domestic order will be stable, and all development indicators will advance by leaps and bounds. Extraordinary individuals from other countries who want to achieve further development will have to come to the University of Tokyo to learn from their experience.

In any case, Belarus and Pakistan have sent all their official superhumans to the University of Tokyo for education, and their countries have begun to fully embrace Chinese culture. Belarus is far away and also has the influence of Russia next door, so it still promotes a bilingual system. But it's obvious to everyone who follows which side will bring benefits.

Just then, North Carolina, who had been remotely controlling Zelensky, sent back a message.

"Admiral, urgent intelligence! Putin is dying."

Section 155: The Era of Transition

The sun rises and sets; it is the natural order. Where there is new life, there must be old age and death.

Putin has also reached the end of his life, and death is already beckoning him from not far away.

He's almost ninety years old this year, and he really can't do it anymore. Politics is a mentally and physically demanding job, and he barely managed to keep up with the heavy burden of Russia. The fact that he can still live to almost ninety is enough to prove that his physical condition is at the top level among ordinary people.

However, the future belongs to the extraordinary, while the old folks of the old era are all disembarking.

Putin did not feel any reluctance about his end; on the contrary, he felt very relaxed.

Because he found a suitable successor, enough to be canonized among the Slavic people, Saint Zelensky.

This man is now a true "Zelensky." In fact, since two years ago, Putin has rarely appeared in public. It is Zelensky, or rather, North Carolina, who has been running around in his place (after all, it is Tirpitz who is in charge of controlling the puppet Zelensky).

The Zelensky of today is so different from the Zelensky of the past that he is almost unrecognizable.

His gaze became more resolute, his face more authoritative, and every move he made increased the pressure on those around him.

Compared to his past on stage, Zelensky is now very quiet and sparing with words, but every time he speaks, he gets straight to the point and gets to the heart of the matter. This silence, coupled with his achievements, has drawn more and more people to his side.

Both royalists and progressives believe that Zelensky is the most likely candidate to become the new Russian president.

Zelensky did not disappoint Putin's trust. In the past two years, he has mainly been doing one thing: laying the groundwork for Russia's next one-party rule.

History has proven that a multi-party system is a capitalist conspiracy that weakens the government's control and makes many policies unable to be implemented continuously. This is true in the United States, Europe, and other similar countries.

No country can tolerate its leader constantly trying to seize control of the steering wheel, so Zelensky began to push for one-party rule reforms in Russia, and he did so with exceptional force. Anyone who dared to obstruct him on this issue was physically crushed by him. When someone accused Zelensky of wanting to become a dictator at a State Duma meeting, Zelensky simply retorted coldly: "Then tell me first, wasn't Stalin a dictator?"

This question is impossible to answer. If it counts, Stalin made Russia great. If it doesn't, then Zelensky's similar style of doing things to Stalin is perfectly acceptable.

Then we can only refute it from other angles, or change the question altogether.

But Zelenskyy wasn't having any of it, stating directly at the end of the meeting: "Naive liberal fools, wake up! If we want a country like Russia to regain the glory of the Soviet era, there's only one way: to rebuild the Soviet Union!"

That's right, Zelenskyy has revealed his hand: he's going to step on the gas and turn left, turning Russia into a new Soviet Union. What the Soviet Union couldn't do, we will do; what the Soviet Union already did, we will do even better.

Anyone have a problem with that? Stalin could open up Siberian farmhouses, I can open up the Arctic Ocean Sun Prison.

Will you follow me and witness Russia's greatness again, or will you go directly to Yeltsin and explain why your entire family was wiped out?

Capital should obediently follow the state's lead and dance within its cage; otherwise, it has no value! This was Zelensky's public statement at the Russian State Duma meeting, a blunt and unvarnished statement.

And he accomplished these things very quickly. Both his methods and style perfectly matched the image of a strongman who was the ideal ruler in the minds of the Slavs. Thus, after Putin, another powerful man with an approval rating of over 90% was born in Russia.

The oligarchs in Russia were naturally unwilling to be nationalized so easily and immediately began to fight back. Zelenskyy did not tolerate them. If you dare to instigate a mutiny in the army, I will suppress the army. If you dare to collude with the enemy and betray the country, I will kill your whole family. Running abroad is useless. Not long ago, an explosion was heard in London, England. Russia directly launched a cruise missile and killed a Russian oligarch who had defected to the UK. The British government only protested.

Could they really launch a nuclear missile at Russia? The one in power now is Zelensky, a ruthless man who once dared to use nuclear weapons to destroy the world. If a nuclear war were to break out, Europe, without American aid, would inevitably be overwhelmed by the steel torrent of Russia in the new era.

If you want to make a living, you have to tolerate Russia's toughness to a certain extent.

Because Zelensky publicly declared that any European company that dared to make false claims about Russia would be met with missiles, and actually bombed the BBC broadcasting building, now the whole of Europe is hesitant to report Russian news casually, fearing that a single wrong word might provoke Russian cruise missiles.

Then they'll just pick out the good reports and praise Russia to death.

Sorry, that won't do either. To Zelensky, such reports are also considered biased and fake news. Being biased is a crime. Since it's a crime, be careful my missiles don't hit your whole family, understand?

The EU protested, strongly protested, and doubled its protests, but took no concrete action.

When Russia actually drops nuclear bombs on them, European countries are becoming more and more obedient, almost kneeling down and kowtowing to Russia to show that they like Russia's tough stance.

That's just being cheap.

In short, in the past two years, Russians, Ukrainians, and Belarusians have all felt very happy, with both substance and prestige, and have a fleeting sense of exhilaration, as if the Soviet Union were still around, dominating the world.

Therefore, there was a strong public demand for the reconstruction of the Soviet Union.

By the way, Lukashenko is planning to retire this year. He is two years younger than Putin and will soon be in his twenties. He looks healthier than Putin, but he is also at an age where he can no longer work. He is currently focused on completing the integration of Belarus and Russia. After that, he will retire and enjoy his later years, leaving the rest to the younger generation.

Zelensky is now a superhuman, and he still has a few hundred days left. His performance after awakening has made Lukashenko very optimistic about this young man.

As for the past, young people are all immature at times, which is understandable. A prodigal son who returns is more precious than gold.

In a Moscow hospital, Putin was in high spirits as he handed over his duties to Zelensky. He looked like he could rule for another ten years, but everyone knew that this was just a temporary resurgence.

Feeling he had said everything he needed to say, Putin lay back down on the bed with a relaxed smile.

"The future of Russia is in your hands."

"I will."

Putin smiled, closed his eyes, and said nothing more.

On December 25, 2042, Putin died at the Ivanovo Medical Center in Moscow at the age of 89.

In the following years, as if the whistle of the old era had sounded, the older generation of national leaders in various countries stepped down from the historical stage one after another, while the number of extraordinary people in the political arena of various countries began to soar, and the world began to be drastically changed.

The era of the extraordinary has officially begun.

Section 156: The Birth of a Two-Power Dominance

"Brother, may you rest in peace."

Lukashenko placed the flowers in his hand in front of Putin's coffin, and then let out a deep sigh.

"It won't be long before I come to see you. I hope I can bring some good news to the comrades then."

Belarus's next task is to integrate into Russia, with the two countries aligning themselves in all aspects, including politics, economy, military, and culture. Putin's successor is undoubtedly Zelensky.

There were protesters and opponents, of course, but their voices were as insignificant as farts when faced with Zelensky.

Even if Zelenskyy were to open up elections now, he could still be elected President of Russia with over 90% approval rating.

A Ukrainian Jewish superhero became the president of Russia. Zelensky's story is very much in line with Great Russian nationalism.

Stalin wasn't Russian, nor was Khrushchev, nor Brezhnev. History has proven the land's capacity for inclusion, provided a suitable leader is present in the right era. Now is that time, and Russia has welcomed its new champion, St. Zelensky.

Putin's funeral was a grand affair, attended by the most distinguished figures from around the world. This most influential Russian leader of the 20th century passed away peacefully with a smile. From a leader's perspective, it was the happiest farewell ceremony.

But for Russia, the days ahead will be quite exciting.

Zelensky, who had already been carrying out one-party reforms within Russia and Ukraine, completely stopped pretending after seizing power. His goal was to reassemble the fragments of the Soviet Union and bring it back to life.

However, the Soviet Union was too small. At that time, the five Central Asian countries were heavily dependent on the East Asian University for their economies, and the East Asian University had no influence on changing the political landscape of these countries. On the contrary, if these five countries were to rejoin the Soviet Union, their leaders would likely be sent to the firing range and Siberia to get some physical training.

Therefore, these countries reacted coldly to Zelensky's rise to power. Diplomats naturally went, but they were all deputies. They seemed to be of high rank, but they had little decision-making power. This showed that they did not want to return to the Soviet Union.

Based on the Russians' past practices, they would definitely be about to launch a major offensive, but Zelenskyy did not.

He stated that he respects the choices of the five Central Asian countries, that Russia and East Asia are friends, and that everyone is happy doing business together. He will not seek to change the status quo, and that everyone living a good life together is more important than anything else.

After stabilizing the Central Asian countries, Zelenskyy began the process of integrating Belarus, Russia, and Ukraine. This included abolishing autonomy, aligning with the new government's tax and military systems, consolidating key powers in his own hands, and implementing the OAGS system.

The regrets of the Soviet Union in the past will all be made up for this time. The New Soviet Union Plan is launched!

This was destined to be a bloody and turbulent plan, affecting the interests of too many people. However, Zelensky had a powerful base of superhuman military support, and those superhumans were all devoted to him and loyal to him. Not long ago, he had even expanded his forces, keeping a firm grip on the various military leaders in Russia. Anyone who dared to disobey him would be dealt with, and anyone who dared to defy him would be killed.

The Slavs' straightforwardness proved to be a highly effective deterrent at this time.

Within just one month of Zelensky taking office, he replaced the entire middle and upper ranks of the Russian army with his own people. Opponents simply vanished without a trace, neither alive nor dead. Only those with clear crimes were arrested and publicly tried, first sentenced to death and then executed. If they dared to flee overseas, well, that would be solid evidence of treason, and they could be killed and even receive a bounty from the Russian state warrant for their arrest—not the now worthless US dollar, but the gold ruble, which is pegged to gold.

During this time, something unexpected happened to Qin Shan: a ship girl actually spawned in Russian territory.

It's Kirov. Oh, never mind then.

It's normal for ship girls to randomly spawn and then come to the admiral; Qin Shan is used to it. However, Kirov belongs to a rather special category among ship girls, referring to her ship guns in the game.

There was only one 180mm long-range gun back then, not counting the ones added later. Anyway, when Qin Shan played Kantai Collection, he often went to farm Kirovs to improve the first-strike advantage of his cruisers' guns. You can tell how crazy he was by looking at how many of his cruiser ship girls had 180mm guns.

However, as a loving, responsible, and dedicated admiral, Kirov's level and favorability are maxed out, and he even gave him a ring. From the player's perspective, this is all out of love.

After unexpectedly discovering that Kirov had logged onto a flight in Moscow, Qin Shan rushed there to meet up with Kirov. After a brief and intimate encounter, Kirov settled permanently in Russia, becoming Zelensky's hidden assistant.

With an eighth-tier cruiser in command, the internal problems of the new Soviet Union will be contained.

While we're at it, let's deal with those who don't want to accept reform and disregard the country's future for their own interests. Since they're unwilling to follow the new Soviet Union, then they can become history. The ship of the new era doesn't carry the waste of the old era.

And so Zelensky launched a new purge within the new Soviet Union. But this time, no Western countries reported on it. Only the University of Tokyo mentioned it briefly, and then nothing more. It was their internal affair, and it had nothing to do with us.

The BBC and other Western mouthpieces are afraid of being purged for reporting false information, so they rely on underground tabloids to smear Russia through various rumors. They don't dare to do it openly, let alone make it big. It's like fighting a guerrilla war, and they only earn their money through hard work. Western countries are really working hard to keep smearing Russia (humorous).

Once the internal cleanup was nearly complete, Zelenskyy officially initiated the process of forming a new Soviet government after the integration of the two countries.

Externally, it was the Soviet Union, the Soviet Socialist Republic. This time, it wasn't a union; it was a single country, a standard centralized state. All the previous fragmented, self-serving autonomy was returned to Moscow. Finance, personnel, and the military were all under Zelensky's control. When the hammer and sickle flag was raised again over the Kremlin, European nations trembled. It's back! That terrifying red specter has found a new body, a powerful new body!

The UN seats also underwent significant changes, with representatives from Belarus and Ukraine announcing their withdrawal from the UN. From this day forward, there are no longer three countries in the world: Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine; there is only the Soviet Union.

Thus, the world's five permanent members of the UN Security Council became a two-power structure, with the two most powerful socialist countries becoming the representatives of the new era of superpowers on Earth, and the East Wind completely overwhelming the West Wind.

Chapter 157: The Extraordinary in the New Era

"Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in wartime. Now that we have become extraordinary beings, we must shoulder the responsibility of serving our country and its people!"

In the new batch of Zhurihe Extraordinary Personnel Training Camp of the People's Liberation Army, Instructor Yun Xiao is giving a political guidance class to the new recruits.

The extraordinary abilities of these individuals are undeniable. If they don't undergo rigorous political and ideological training after joining the military, they might become extremely dangerous time bombs when they return to society.

When you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

As superhumans awaken and the training system becomes more sophisticated, the country is also continuously optimizing its current social system. At the very least, when problems arise, the handling of matters involving superhumans will be more cautious.

This is like someone who can summon a loaded cannon on the street at any time. Even if he does nothing, he objectively has the ability to kill all the ordinary people on the street before a superhuman of equal strength arrives.

It's terrifying. It means that at least hundreds of families will be broken up at the same time, and it will directly affect the relationship between ordinary people and superhumans, and even cause serious social antagonism.

The United States, which is now divided into two parts, is in this situation: on one side, superhumans dominate, while on the other side, ordinary people are fiercely resisting superhumans, and the two sides have reached a point of irreconcilable conflict.

The confrontation between East and West has created two distinct Americas: the Superpower America and the Mortal America. To counter the Superpowers, the Mortals have launched a full-scale nuclear war. They're saying, "You Superpowers are powerful, huh? Fine, I'll replace all our weapons with nuclear warheads, from artillery shells to grenades. Nuclear landmines are densely packed along the border between the two countries, and cities are filled with nuclear bombs. If you dare to invade, we'll nuke everything and fight you to the death, dragging the whole world down with us."
