I Just Finished the College Entrance Exam, and Now I'm Joining the Paranormal Investigation Bureau to Execute Monsters

[High martial arts + ruthless action + executing monsters + overwhelming power + battles across realms]

Xia Ning: Xia as in Huaxia, Ning as in peace.

After transmigrating eighteen years ago, he had planned to become a ghostwriter and live a comfortable, peaceful life.

Then the specters fighting upstairs and the agents from the Special Investigation Bureau showed Xia Ning another side of the world.

They also awakened his golden finger: the Illustrated Guide to the Mythical Beasts of Mountains and Seas.

[First activation: Obtain the Taotie mimicry talent and make it your own. Devour the cultivation of those you kill.]

[Kill a specter: Obtain the Qiongqi mimicry talent. Start from the top: triple all attributes against targets from the neck up.]

[Kill a mutated thunder bat: Obtain the Thunder God mimicry talent. Command the power of lightning, channel the thunder, wield heaven's punishment, and illuminate the darkness.]

[Kill a corpse demon general: Obtain the Taowu mimicry talent. Become a war tyrant. When outnumbered, triple all attributes.]

Xia Ning: At this rate, there's no way I'm going to be sleepy. I've only got one rule for the rest of my life: get out there and fight!

Once he calms down, Xia Ning asks himself, "What if I'm not the protagonist and get killed halfway through?"

The answer comes to him quickly: "What the hell am I afraid of? I've already transmigrated, and the Great Dao is right beneath my feet. If I set out never to return, then so be it."

And so, a generation-defining executioner is born from the Center for the Study, Management, Investigation, and Handling of Paranormal Events, better known as the Special Investigation Bureau.

Duanmu Yan: "Good lad. You've got the makings of me in my younger days."

Xia Ning: "You're too kind, Director. I just wanted to indulge a little personal quirk."

Duanmu Yan: "..."
