Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 893 Revisiting the Exhibition Hall

In addition to the "Long-lasting Burning" character used by Wu Xian, the enhancement effects of Chen Chao and Liu Nana's worship abilities were also inherited.

Human Divine Power - Silent Landing, with the added trait 'Hot Wind Kick', which releases a blade-like hot wind when kicking, but each use consumes a lot of stamina.

The Decapitation Spell has a new trait, 'Headless Executioner'. When the Decapitation Spell is used, a headless evil spirit wielding a knife will appear. If the first strike misses, the evil spirit can follow up with two more strikes.

Apart from these three items, the abilities of the other worship items remain the same as before.

Without hesitation, Wu Xian retrieved the Long-Burning Flame character and affixed the talisman to the Cursed Dream Dagger, regaining the power he had just lost. A satisfied expression appeared on his face.

Then, Wu Xian looked at the six newlyweds waiting on the side.

All six of them were handpicked by Wu Xian; they are all in good health and relatively stable emotionally, making them of higher overall quality than the previous batch of newcomers.

If all goes well, Wu Xian hopes to bring this blessed land to a close this time.

He didn't want to kill any more of his familiars with his own hands.

In the water dungeon, Wu Xian held a knife, wanting only to give his family members a quick death.

But when he plunged the knife into the chest of one of the male members of the clan, wounds appeared on seven other members at the same time.

The excruciating pain jolted them awake from their unconsciousness. Their muscles spasmed, they coughed up blood, and desperately tried to rush to Wu Xian, the chains binding them rattling incessantly. They glared at Wu Xian and screamed:
"Stop this!"

"Let me die, I don't want to live like this anymore."

"Have mercy and find a way to kill us..."

The annual fortune and misfortune of the year saved their lives, but during this long period, they suffered pain more terrifying than death. It would have been better to die cleanly than to live like this...

……

Now let's return to the allocation of the power to worship gods.

Among the six newcomers, Wang Wei should be the most capable, but Wu Xian felt that this guy was not trustworthy, so he gave him the supernatural power - landing silently.

The most lethal spell, the Decapitation Spell, was given to Yang Shan, the security guard who seemed the most reliable.

The Soul-Soothing Bell lacks combat power, but it can soothe evil spirits that are about to awaken. Last time, Wu Xian gave it to Li Xiaohu, which delayed some things. This time, after thinking for a moment, Wu Xian gave it to Shi Yan, who is a music teacher, so it is a good match for her major.

Hao Ze was a chatterbox and couldn't help but talk. Wu Xian gave him the supernatural power of the Golden Bell Shield, so that if his talkativeness attracted the hatred of evil spirits, he could at least use this supernatural power to draw their fire.

The corpse-transformation technique was given to Xie Yulan, a female tourist. She was around twenty-four or twenty-five years old, probably a recent graduate, and relatively healthy, so she wouldn't be a burden.

The final Dragon and Tiger Tonic was given to Sun Shoubai, a trombone player who was the same age as Liu Nana.

The entire process of worshipping the gods seemed very long, but it was mostly Wu Xian's mental activity. From the perspective of the six newcomers, they all received their own worship abilities less than a minute after worshipping the gods.

Wu Xian put away the Burning Dream Dagger and looked at the clock on the red sun.

10:20.

The progress is more than twice as fast as last time.

The next thing to consider is how to arrange the process for this blessed land.

First, because of the time constraints, the newcomers were all in a daze and lacked a basic understanding of themselves and the blessed land, so Wu Xian had to find a way to help them quickly get into their roles.

Secondly, since the treasures and enhancements to the worship items can be preserved after the time reset, they cannot miss any opportunity to enhance them.

Finally, it was time to explore the unknown areas within this blessed land. After making his plans, Wu Xian looked at the newlyweds on the ceiling. The ordinary newcomers were still unaware of the situation, while Miao Yue and Hu Zhongjian, who had died young, were still immersed in the terror of their previous deaths.

Only Liu Nana and Chen Chao knew clearly what they were about to face.

Wu Xian whispered to the two men, "Based on our experience last time, the danger at the top of the hour will occur in the area where the seven of us are. I will lead them away from the county government hall as soon as possible, hoping that this will delay the awakening of those hanging corpses..."

Chen Chao grabbed his short hair in distress: "Then you'd better hurry up and leave. Last time I died, I exhausted all my courage. I don't want to die again."

Liu Nana said softly, "I wish you good luck."

Wu Xian nodded and left with the six new recruits. Without Wu Xian's intimidating presence, the new recruits started shouting again, making the county government hall extremely noisy.

Looking at the clueless newcomers, Liu Nana sighed deeply. How she wished her memories could be reset like theirs.

……

Behind the main hall of the county government office, between the inner and outer sides of the ceremonial gate, lies a fork in the road leading to two corridors.

The left side was completely dark; it was the path Wu Xian and his group had taken last time.

The light on the right was on, and the room was filled with all sorts of miscellaneous items. Wu Xian knew there was a trap hidden there, so he wouldn't repeat the same mistake.

However, the odds and ends here can still be put to good use.

Using the light shining from the lobby, Wu Xian found a case of 'Le Niu' taurine energy drink among the various beverage boxes.

After opening the box, he gave each newcomer a bottle, and took two bottles for himself.

Towards the end of the last exploration, Wu Xian and the newcomers were all quite thirsty, but it was difficult to find clean drinking water on the second floor, so these beverages were an important resource.

After getting the drinks, Wu Xian led the six newcomers into the dark left corridor.

The corridor was wide and long, with light shining in from the lobby at the beginning and moonlight shining in from the window at the end. Although it was dark, it wasn't pitch black; you could at least see the outlines of people.

After taking a small sip of his beverage to confirm it hadn't spoiled, Wu Xianxian, like a tour guide at an exhibition hall, began introducing the newlyweds to the details of this auspicious place.

"The first evil spirit we'll face is a security guard stitched together from multiple corpses. This guard is highly sensitive to bright light and loud noise, and moves extremely fast once it locks onto a target. You can use a flashlight to locate it. Be careful when dealing with this evil spirit..."

"In addition, I have three pieces of advice for you."

"First, unless absolutely necessary, never be alone. Last time, Li Xiaohu was alone and died a terrible death. He was torn to pieces by evil spirits."

"Second, make good use of your worship abilities to ensure that you can use them as quickly as possible when needed. Last time, Li Xiaohu, who had the Soul-Soothing Bell, was a step too slow."

"Third, if you're in dire straits, it's best to find a way to commit suicide. That way, you can be resurrected in the next round. If Li Xiaohu had decisively committed suicide, things wouldn't have come to this..."

Shi Yan, Xie Yulan, and Sun Shoubai felt panicked just from hearing Wu Xian's description, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

Yang Shan walked close to the wall, cautiously glancing left and right. His steps were steady, and he paused slightly every time he passed a door. He must have had military training before becoming a security guard.

Wang Wei's gaze swept around haphazardly, occasionally glancing at Wu Xian, but when Wu Xian noticed his gaze returning to him, he would guiltily look away.

As for Hao Ze, his lips moved erratically, constantly uttering silent complaints, ranging from his elderly mother to the inauthentic jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes) at the scenic spot...

As Wu Xian spoke, he led the newcomers deeper into the corridor, stopping only when they reached the back of the corridor near the security guard's rest room.
