By associating with Nezha, I became the darling of the Chinese gods.

Chapter 72 Shocking! The Inspector is in Wen Miao's grasp!
The array beneath their feet lit up, then quickly went out.

The light disappears.

When she opened her eyes again, Wen Miao had been forcibly moved to the edge of the examination room.

Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, Wen Miao couldn't help but sigh.

Ugh, what a mess!

After taking the exam for so long, she still doesn't know who she's supposed to kill, and she's wasted a whole day!
Wen Miao tugged at the Hun Tian Ling (a magical ribbon) on her body with her left hand, while opening the examination room map with her right hand, wanting to check on her teammates' situation.

However, to Wen Miao's surprise, the exam site map did not show the coordinates of other candidates!
"Tsk, this is going to be a bit tricky."

Wen Miao frowned. The underworld official had separated them, clearly intending to defeat them one by one.

She's fine; if she encounters that underworld official again, she'll just grab her weapon and fight him!
Anyway, since her soul isn't native, no one can do anything about her.

However, it's hard to say about the other candidates.

Wen Miao stroked her chin and muttered to herself softly:

"How about I go check out the local temple first?"

That's where the inspectors are located, and it's also considered a landmark building in the entire examination hall.

If you're lucky, you might run into some other test-takers on your way to the local temple.

Having made up her mind, Wen Miao prepared to set off.

Just then, faint voices of conversation drifted over from not far away.

"This is so annoying! Where are those strangers? It's almost dawn!"

"The underworld officials told us to immediately send a message after we found any living people. We haven't found any, and no one else has sent a message either. What's the panic?"

"By the way, did you bring a paper crane for sending messages?"

"Yes, I brought them! There are over a hundred of them!"

Upon hearing the conversation, Wen Miao was startled. She put away the map and hurriedly hid in the small house next door, trying to catch her breath.

It would be easy to kill them.

But if she attracts evil spirits from other places and they swarm to attack her, things will get bad—

She didn't have time to get entangled with these evil creatures!

Things have varying degrees of importance and urgency.

The most important thing now is to complete the task!

Wen Miao waited until there was no more noise outside before coming out of the house.

It's still night, and the paper-mache demons are more lively than during the day.

Under the cover of night, Wen Miao followed the exam site map and chose a secluded path to reach the local temple.

They did not encounter any other test takers along the way.

This made Wen Miao's heart sink.

She was lucky and didn't encounter any ghost messengers.

Oh dear, what if some other unlucky test takers run into this?

"Bang bang bang!"

"Let me out..."

As soon as Wenmiao arrived at the Earth God Temple, she heard a series of rapid knocking sounds coming from deep inside the temple.

Coupled with the strong, cloying smell of incense all around, it felt strangely eerie, making one's heart race.

Someone's here!

Wen Miao snapped out of her thoughts, gripped the golden cudgel warily, and the Hun Tian Ling also perked up, silently approaching to investigate.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a black coffin that was moving, and it looked like the coffin lid was about to collapse!
There are living things inside!
I rely on!

Wen Miao's eyelids twitched, and she tried her best to control herself from crying out.

Seeing a coffin moving around in the middle of the night is really enough to make you cringe!
"Who's out there?"

Hearing the approaching footsteps, the person inside the coffin cautiously inquired:

"are you human?"

Wen Miao: "..."

Are you crazy? Of course she's a human being!

Wen Miao's lips twitched. She walked to the coffin and knocked on it. "And what are you? Sleeping in a coffin in the middle of the night?"

"Waaaaah, this is amazing! It's a person! A real person! Thank goodness I'm alive!"

Unexpectedly, the person inside the coffin was so moved by Wen Miao's words that they burst into tears:

"I see, you're an examinee who came to the City That Never Sleeps!"

"Quick! Get out of here! Don't get too close to that coffin, or that guy will leave a mark on your soul!"

Candidate?

Upon hearing this familiar address, Wen Miao raised an eyebrow.

A crazy idea popped into Wen Miao's mind.

"Are you... an inspector?" Wen Miao swallowed and asked tentatively.

"That's right! I am the inspector! You, young lady, have a keen eye for talent!" The person inside seemed to have been touched on a key word, pounding on the coffin lid while lamenting with grief and indignation:

"That damned underworld official dared to seal me away while I was maintaining the examination hall, and even impersonated me! I'm so angry, waaaaah!"

Despite hearing the official inspector's incessant scathing insults and tearful complaints, Wen Miao's back suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Good guy!
The inspector who initially received them... was that red-robed underworld official from earlier!
He was the one who issued the mission to kill the evil species!
No wonder the StarNet system said they were taking the exam passively!

It turns out we were wrong from the start!

Wen Miao suddenly felt dizzy and lightheaded, and leaned against the coffin to regain her senses.

So, who exactly is her target?!
After a while, Wen Miao exhaled and raised his golden cudgel, striking it forcefully.

"...I'll let you out first."

"No! The underworld messengers come here every day to reinforce the seal; there's no way anyone can break it!"

However, before the inspector could finish speaking, the seemingly impregnable coffin lid shattered into pieces.

Inspector: "!!!"

The inspector's face twitched, and he thought to himself, "Good heavens!"
Are all the applicants this year this amazing?!
Sudden--

A burst of white light broke through the shackles of the sealed coffin, leaping into the sky and soaring into the air!

A powerful and domineering male voice rang out from mid-air, carrying a whirlwind-like pressure.

"Hahaha! I'm finally out! Candidates below, catch me!"

"Later, I can lend you a hand and allow you to cheat!"

Upon hearing that 'cheating is allowed,' Wen Miao was overjoyed.

The divine power fluctuations above her head were so strong; she had latched onto a powerful figure, and things were looking good now!
However, Wen Miao was somewhat puzzled when she noticed the word 'catch'.

The voice above her sounded so rough; should she catch him?

Is this appropriate?

Will she get squashed...?

Just thought of this.

next moment--

The sudden white light vanished abruptly, and a fluffy, white, soft little thing landed in her palm with a soft thud.

Wen Miao looked down and her eyelids twitched uncontrollably, freezing the smile on her lips.

This is…

rabbit?

rabbit!!!

This guy is actually an inspector? And he even offered to help her cheat?
A plate of stir-fried rabbit meat wouldn't even be enough to fill a tooth gap, is this some kind of joke!

"Waaaaah, it wasn't easy! I've finally seen the light of day again!"

The rabbit inspector was wiping his nose with snot and tears streaming down his face, his two rabbit ears twitching as he wiped them away.

Looking at the soft, adorable little rabbit in her palm, Wen Miao finally couldn't hold back her inner breakdown. She grabbed the inspector by the rabbit's ears and shook them back and forth, threateningly saying:

"Who are you? Release my mighty and imposing inspector's leg right now!"

The little rabbit was forced to dangle in mid-air, hopping around on its short legs, crying out, "Hey, you rude examinee, don't humiliate me! Put me down right now!"

"My divine power hasn't recovered yet, so I can only maintain this lowly animal form! Otherwise, I could kill ten of you in an instant!"

I believe you!
Wen Miao was on the verge of tears, forced to accept the truth.

She lost her thigh, so she has to rely on herself for everything!

Thinking of this, Wen Miao took out a piece of iron emitting a strange fragrance from her bosom, held it up to the little rabbit, and asked:
"There's no time to spare! Quickly, check who my target is!"

"Wait, are you 'One'?"

Upon seeing the numbers on the iron block, the inspector's eyes widened instantly, his beady red eyes scanning Wen Miao as if trying to investigate something.

That’s it again!
What a load of nonsense!
Wen Miao clenched her fists, unable to contain herself any longer. "So, what exactly does '一' mean?!"

“The number ‘one’ is usually not drawn by the candidates; it can only be assigned by the StarNet system.”

The inspector looked at Wen Miao with pity and decided to forgive her rudeness. "Your target is Death. According to system data, it will arrive tonight."

Wen Miao was so angry she laughed.

Does the StarNet system think so highly of her?

They actually sent her to kill a god?!

The inspector licked the rabbit's paw and comforted it, "Don't be afraid, I'll help you!"

Wen Miao: "..."

Why am I suddenly even more scared?!
Outside the examination room.

Seeing the man and the rabbit loudly plotting a god-slaying plan, everyone exchanged shocked glances, speechless.

unbelievable!

They can even extract these hidden numbers!

In the core program of the StarNet system, how much weight does Wen Miao actually hold?!
