I slay evil in the Department of the Supernatural

Chapter 87, Chapter 086: River God Makes a Move, Instant Kill (Nine Updates, Please Subscribe)

The air suddenly tightened, like the deathly stillness before a storm, oppressive and making people restless.

The river surface seemed to have solidified into amber, the raging waves seemed to freeze in place, and even the howling wind seemed to be choked, not daring to make a sound.

This terrifying spiritual pressure definitely came from a mid-level transcendent!

Just as Xu Lindong and the others were feeling palpitations and oppression, a huge wave suddenly erupted from the bottom of the river, causing the ground on the shore to tremble slightly.

The waves surged and rolled up like an enraged lion, instantly condensing into a massive water-shaped hand that clenched tightly!

"what!"

A short, agonizing scream rang out, and crimson blood gushed out from between the fingers of the giant water palm.

At the same moment, countless high-speed swirling streams of water swept across like transparent blades, instantly slicing through Valentine and the eerie magical ritual objects around him.

"Whoosh!!"

In the blink of an eye, the blood mist mixed with the shredded debris exploded in the water blade.

In an instant, Valentine, along with the dark ritual he had laid out, vanished completely.

The South District team member whose death triggered a supernatural backlash was firmly imprisoned by a giant bubble that suddenly appeared, and no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't break free.

Dead silence.

An eerie silence fell over the scene.

Those on the river surface were unaware of the dramatic changes that had occurred underwater.

The people in the water felt a chill run through them, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.

In the blink of an eye.

All the enemies are gone.

"What?"

On the ship, Xu Lindong, who had been keeping a close eye on the mental threads, suddenly noticed something amiss and his expression changed drastically.

At this moment, within his mental mirror furnace, the two threads of the soul representing Valentine and the escaped Yuan Heng broke and were completely annihilated simultaneously.

This situation can only mean one thing.

Both of them are dead.

"Could it be that an official mid-level expert has made a move?"

Xu Lindong's doubts and uncertainties had just begun to arise.

The river below suddenly spun violently, creating a huge whirlpool.

"Hiss hiss hiss!"

Several thick columns of water rose from the whirlpool, carrying Lu Qian and the others to the surface.

Immediately afterwards, a surge of river water rose upwards and condensed in mid-air into the figure of a woman.

The woman, formed entirely from the river's water, possessed a graceful figure and an indistinct face, yet exuded an aura of majesty that commanded respect.

At this moment, the woman in the shape of water spoke. Her voice was clear and melodious, like a spring flowing over rocks, slightly diluting the previous oppressive feeling. "You've been making a scene here long enough."

The current situation is special, and I must guard the Water Palace; it cannot be lost.

"I've taken care of the trouble for you, so you can all leave now."

"This is—the River God, the sixth in the Heavenly Dao Sequence? The one who guards the Heavenly Sinkhole of the Yangtze River Water Palace?"

Xu Lin stared at the woman, his mind racing through brief information he had seen before.

Upon hearing this, Lu Qian, Zou Hong, and the others immediately bowed to the woman.

Zou Hong, who was covered in cold, damp sweat, respectfully replied, "Yes, Lord Luo."

We had no intention of disturbing you, but these bandits were too cunning, and in the end, we still managed to bother you.

"Let's go! I heard the situation outside the city is a bit bad. That old ghost in the Ghost Market has actually been persuaded by the evil guild. That money-grubbing bastard—"

With a wave of his hand, the River God Luo, in the form of a water-woman, sent several jets of water carrying everyone ashore. "Next, I will seal off the section of the Yangtze River near the Water Palace!"

"I have reported to headquarters that navigation on the river will be prohibited for the next three days."

I will sink any ship that dares to approach.

99

"yes!"

Everyone answered in unison.

Xu Lindong secretly clicked his tongue in amazement; this Lord Luo's methods were truly decisive and ruthless.

However, this is indeed the safest way to manage it, since the Shuifu Tiankeng is said to be even more dangerous.

"Judging from her words, the situation outside the city doesn't seem very optimistic—"

Xu Lindong's heart sank slightly. "That pawnshop owner in the Ghost Market is probably not simple."

"Could it be Sequence Five? Even stronger than Senior Xie, who is known as the 'Judge of a Hundred Ghosts'?"

As he pondered this, he went into the cabin, physically woke the unconscious captain, and ordered him to sail back to shore.

He then carefully examined the vampire Leon's body and confirmed that this Sequence Nine had completely perished, which put his mind at ease.

However, faint traces of extraordinary fluctuations could still be emanating from the pool of dark blood splattered on the ground.

"This should be the supernatural substance left over from the transformation into a vampire through the supernatural path—a special kind of blood."

He didn't know much about the vampire sequence.

But as a superhuman possessing the power of the zombie sequence, he instinctively sensed that this blood was extraordinary and seemed to be very valuable.

Therefore, before the ship reached the shore, he immediately sent some of his extraordinary blood into the Tower of Babel.

The ninth floor of the Tower of Babel.

The small, dog-hole-like door next to the tunnel entrance suddenly opened, sucking in some of the extraordinary blood he had brought.

"Merit +110!"

He didn't dare take it all, lest the Department of the Supernatural discover something unusual when it later seized the corpse and the supernatural matter.

Taking only a portion should be fine.

After all, he had previously seen that Captain Lu had also used his illusory popularity to absorb some of the vampire's blood energy in order to strengthen his own illusory popularity clone.

When faced with valuable and extraordinary resources, it's normal for anyone to engage in some minor, reasonable, and compliant activities.

At this moment, the ship docked, and Xu Lindong rode his extraordinary motorcycle down the river.

Ding Jian immediately came up to him, gave him a thumbs up and grinned, "Brother Xu, you're really something! You actually went head-to-head with a Sequence 9 vampire just now, and your weapon is really eye-catching."

Xu Lindong glanced at the bruises on his face and was somewhat speechless: "Did Valentine beat you up? How could a dark mage like him beat a zombie like this?"

Ding Jian's smile froze, and he said awkwardly, "I accidentally fell into his trap and was silenced and cursed. When I woke up, I was hit with several sticks."

I came here intending to seek revenge, but Lord Luo intervened, so I'm no longer needed. But thankfully, brother, you've already avenged me.

Xu Lindong shook his head; he wouldn't dare go into the water unless he pointed it out.

At this moment, Pan Chao walked over, extended his hand, and said, "Pan Chao, let's get acquainted. There might be opportunities for cooperation in the future. You are very capable."

"Hello there."

Xu Lindong shook hands with him.

Several extraordinary individuals from the South and West districts opposite him stared at Xu Lindong, especially at the exaggeratedly large scythe on his back, their eyes filled with apprehension.

This newcomer from the East District is like a dark horse that suddenly appeared; he's been making waves lately and is no ordinary person.

The troubles outside the city haven't been resolved yet, and the supernatural officers from the next few districts will likely have to go outside the city to assist in handling supernatural events.

At this time, it is very necessary to get to know more strong people.

Therefore, after Pan Chao, the other executives also stepped forward to shake hands and get to know Xu Lindong.

The executives from the southern region did not look too good.

They lost one of their men, and the atmosphere fell silent as they looked at the corpse Qiao Zheng brought up.

Executives may seem glamorous and powerful, but once a true extraordinary battle breaks out, the mortality rate is still too high.

"Old Song has two daughters at home, the eldest is only twelve years old — sigh."

A woman with a ponytail looked at the middle-aged man's corpse on the ground and sighed softly.

"It's all Yuan Heng's fault at headquarters! He'd rather be a dog for the evil organization! He has a wife and kids too, let's see how his family survives now—"

Another middle-aged man with a buzz cut gritted his teeth and roared angrily, his eyes filled with coldness.

"Old Ye."

Qiao Zheng's voice turned serious, "This is a matter between us superhumans. Even if Yuan Heng is the mole, as long as his family wasn't involved, he won't be implicated or held accountable. Don't do anything reckless."

Xu Lindong watched this scene and, recalling Yuan Heng who had been casually crushed to death by Lord Hebo Luo, was speechless for a moment.

He couldn't understand it either.

What exactly is Yuan Heng after?

"I'm gone."

At this moment, Lu Qian waved to Xu Lindong, "I can recommend you for good deeds when we get back."

"it is good."

Xu Lindong nodded, started the Superb Motorcycle, and drove away with Lu Qian on board.

After half an hour.

Near Chu Street in Jiangcheng, a superb motorcycle drove up and slowly came to a stop.

"That's enough for now, you can go back and rest."

After I finish things here, I'll go back to the department to help you apply for the commendation and complete the formalities.

Lu Qian took a long stride, nimbly flipped off the car, and turned to Xu Lindong, saying, "The situation is tense right now, so we need to handle this as a special case."

Your Level 1 Executive Officer status should be approved soon, but specific benefits will have to wait until this matter is resolved.

"It's alright, Captain. You go ahead with your work and remember to get some rest."

Xu Lindong lifted the helmet visor and answered.

"Okay! You take this."

Lu Qian handed over a specially made mobile phone, "It works better than a regular mobile phone. This is also standard equipment for a Level 1 Executive Officer. It also comes with a super pager, so you can communicate even in the Evil Realm."

"Once you officially become a Level 1 Executive Officer, you can apply for a super weapon in the department with a merit of no more than two thousand merits."

If you want something better, you'll have to earn the extra merit points yourself.

"So this is the kind of treatment you get."

Xu Lindong was somewhat surprised as he took the extraordinary phone.

He had only heard that the families of first-level executives could move into the compound of the Department of the Supernatural.

"The treatment depends on the person, so it wasn't mentioned publicly before." Lu Qian blinked. "It's because half of the Level 1 Executives are promoted based on seniority and rarely go to the front lines of combat. The department doesn't provide them with supernatural weapons for free; at most, they'll be given some regular equipment."

"After all, these extraordinary weapons are very precious, and many of the materials come from the sinkhole, which were obtained at the cost of human lives."

If everyone could have one, humanity would have already swept through the sinkhole.

"Understood, I won't tell anyone."

Xu Lindong nodded and saw Lu Qian off.

She had to rush to the Foreign Affairs Division to hand over her work.

Several extraordinary individuals from outside the main faction died this time, which needs to be reported and the information shared with the overseas federation.

He's out of danger for now.

However, the series of battles, especially the entanglement with that strange bicycle, left him feeling physically and mentally exhausted.

As soon as I relaxed, a wave of weariness washed over me.

But the thought that Yuan Heng, the traitor who had plotted against him, was dead gave him a sense of satisfaction.

If Yuan Heng really escapes, who knows how he will retaliate against him and his family in the future.

"Let's head back!"

Buzz!

He twisted the throttle and quickly rode his extraordinary motorcycle back to Mingjiang Community.

This trip back was not easy either.

He had to persuade Uncle Yi and Zhou to help the two elders and Sister De move with him into the family compound of the Department of the Supernatural, where it would be safer.

Next, you must enter the Tower of Babel and give three hundred merits to the Goddess Houtu.

Although this was the best possible deal after all the trial and error, Xu Lindong was still unsure.

I wonder what changes will occur after these three hundred merits are given to the mysterious Goddess Houtu —
