Lin Rui quickly found the source of these war spirits.

It was a vast forest of steel spears located opposite the Luojing River Port, consisting of thousands of giant steel spears that were fifty feet tall.

The tips of these giant steel spears were pointing upwards, piercing the sky, and each of them had a corpse pierced on its tip.

Most of the bodies have turned into white bones, and some are still rotting.

The war spirits sensed by the war spirit ring all came from those corpses that were still "fresh".

Lin Rui's pupils shrank slightly: "Is this the legendary Demon-Suppressing Forest?"

"That's right!" At this time, Li Li quietly walked to his side and also looked at the magnificent forest of steel spears in the distance.

"Starting from the 35th year of Emperor Xuan's reign, the Song Dynasty impaled and suppressed all the extraterritorial demons above the sixth realm in this Demon-Suppressing Forest, using Demon-Suppressing Stakes to pierce and suppress them!

They wanted to intimidate the increasingly rampant extraterritorial demons within the territory, while also torturing the souls of these higher-level extraterritorial demons. It was said that these demon-suppressing stakes could keep the souls of these demons in endless agony for decades.

Li Li's eyes were complicated. His heart was filled with sympathy and sadness for these predecessors with different bodies, as well as fear and hatred towards the Song Dynasty court.

"Nearly 70% of this Demon Suppression Forest was built by the Traitor Assassination Bureau, representing the fruitful results of their successive generations."

Lin Rui crossed his arms and returned to his normal expression.

He thought that if his identity was discovered in the future, this would probably be the outcome.

But it’s no big deal. There is no essential difference between dying from the Tianji people and dying at the hands of the Changsheng Society.

Lin Rui began to ask the Ringwraiths.

"Ringwraith, among these war spirits, which one's martial arts attributes are more suitable for me?"

Lin Rui had already repaired the War Spirit Ring to 30%, enough to capture a new War Spirit, but he had yet to find a suitable one.

He actually encountered a few of them in the past few months, but the highest level of these war spirits was only that of a major general, so Lin Rui was too lazy to capture them and waste the war spirit position in his hand.

Tip: There are three war spirits that match your martial arts attributes. The first one is the one-star marshal Han Dao, who possesses the light-type all-sky secret weapon and the thunder and fire-type dragon-grade secret weapon; the second one is the colonial-style general Huangfu Qing, who possesses the light-type all-sky secret weapon and the fire-type dragon-grade secret weapon; the third one is the colonial-style general Jiang Guoli, who possesses the light-type thunder and fire-type dragon-grade secret weapon.

After receiving the reminder, Lin Rui's expression changed drastically and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

Colonial General Huangfu Qing? Isn't that the name of Academician Huangfu?
Academician Huangfu actually died here, and was pierced and impaled on a spear by people from the Song Dynasty?

Lin Rui sensed the Ringwraith without hesitation.

"Ringwraith, help me capture Colonial General Huangfu Qing!"

He knew that Huangfu Qing's martial arts skills were extremely powerful, with a total combat score of 7SSS, and his bloodline martial arts had reached the imperial level.

It is said that the fighting ability of this academician is not even inferior to that of many one-star marshals!
The key is that Academician Huangfu's skills in biology, colonialism and medicine make Lin Rui extremely envious.

If he could capture Academician Huangfu as his third ring spirit, then there might be hope of solving the various illnesses in Lin Xi caused by the abyss source.

But the Ringwraiths quickly responded.

Tip: Due to unknown interference, the capture of the war spirit failed. Please eliminate the interference source before capturing it.

Lin Rui frowned slightly and looked intently at the densely packed runes on the demon-suppressing stakes.

Then he looked down again, at the huge magic circle beneath the forest of steel spears.

Lin Rui had a grandmaster-level knowledge of high-level talisman arrays, and he immediately recognized that it was this array that was suppressing Academician Huangfu's soul.

He rubbed his brow in distress, thinking this was going to be troublesome. It was said that this Demon Suppression Forest was guarded by two 'candidate divine envoys' from the Song Dynasty, both powerful beings who had reached the ninth realm of cultivation.

There are a total of 12 "candidate divine envoys" in the Song Dynasty, all of whom are super emperors of the ninth realm and have the hope of entering the realm of immortality in the future.

It was extremely difficult for Lin Rui to take Huangfu Qing's soul away from them.

So these numerous war spirits can only be looked at but not used?

When the official ship that Lin Rui was on docked, he once again felt the importance of the "Commander of the Traitor Assassination Bureau".

The eunuchs and supervisors in charge of managing the Beijing Port, as well as a group of port officials, almost all trotted to the berth to greet them.

Then a group of military officers from the Imperial City and a large group of people dressed as butlers swarmed in, almost filling the berths.

Most of these Imperial City Military Officers are Lin Rui's future subordinates, and they come here to welcome their superiors.

The Assassination Bureau is very large, with a total of 24 prisons, each of which has more than a dozen squads, equivalent to the Earth Federation's combat teams. In addition, it is also equipped with a large number of auxiliary personnel, totaling more than 5000 people.

Each prison has a supervisor, who is at the same level as the defense commander that Lin Rui previously served, but has greater authority.

Among these 24 prisons, four belong to the faction of the Third Divine Envoy, that is, the group of military officers from the Imperial City Division who came to welcome Lin Rui.

As for those housekeepers, they were either servants of high-ranking officials in the court or household slaves of wealthy merchant families. They came to deliver visiting cards to Lin Rui and give him money.

This is also the rule of the Song Dynasty officialdom, called the "rule of taking office".

Although these high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen could not be present in person, their thoughts and wishes were conveyed.

There were also people who came on behalf of the host, wanting to invite him to a banquet to welcome him, but they were all rejected by Lin Rui.

He hasn't even paid a visit to his master yet, let alone his boss and the emperor. How dare he go out and drink and indulge in corruption with these people?
As for the visiting cards and the rules of appointment, Lin Rui accepted them all.

Lin Rui is now very familiar with the routine. If the money is small, he will just respond with a "hmm", and if the money is large, he will give more smiling faces.

As for the four supervisors who came to greet him in person, and the many military officers of the Imperial City Administration headed by them, Lin Rui was very enthusiastic and did his best to comfort and win them over.

If Lin Rui wants to hold on to his position as commander, he must rely on the help of these people. If he wants to establish his own authority, he must have his own brothers and sisters.

However, since these people came to the dock to greet us in person, it showed their attitude. There was no need to put on airs in front of these future confidants at this time.

Lin Rui happened to have not had lunch, so he simply set up a few tables of wine in a restaurant near the river port and invited these military officers from the Imperial City Bureau to drink.

After they drank more than twenty cans of yellow soup, their relationship became harmonious and close. Of course, it was impossible for them to reach the point of calling each other brothers, and Lin Rui would not allow it.

However, he no longer had the estrangement with these subordinates that he had when they first met. He could still accurately call out their names, knew their identities and positions, and their general personalities and resumes.

Late that night, Lin Rui finally arrived at the post station built by the court outside the south city gate and met his senior sister Meng Weiyun.

However, his attention was attracted by a prison van parked in front of the post station.

"This is?"

Lin Rui was shocked because the person sitting in the prison van was none other than the former Shazhou Governor Yuan Chengkai.

However, this man no longer had the demeanor of a famous scholar that he had when Wang Cheng met him. Not only was his hair disheveled and his face as purple as gold, but his limbs were broken and all the acupoints in his body were penetrated by Zhenyuan nails. His prison uniform was covered in bloodstains and he looked extremely miserable and embarrassed.
