What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?

I nodded, knowing perfectly well that this was definitely thanks to Lei Zhenshan's "passing on the message" last night.

However, I maintained a calm and unhurried demeanor on the surface.

"Shall we set off now?"

I picked up the backpack on the table and carefully placed the bone needles and scalpel close to my body.

"The car is already waiting downstairs."

Zhao Mingxuan gestured for him to proceed.

Half an hour later, the Audi smoothly drove into a courtyard with a high wall located within the Second Ring Road of Beijing.

There are no signs at the entrance, only a sign for the Beiping Cultural Research Institute.

However, the armed police standing guard at the gate and the faint, powerful internal energy fluctuations emanating from the courtyard both indicated that this place was not ordinary.

After getting off the bus, Zhao Mingxuan led me into a gray building that looked somewhat old.

"Advisor Chen, Class A warehouses are key locations for our headquarters."

Before you can go in to select your reward, you'll first need to go to the archives department for the highest level of identity verification and get your identification documents renewed.

As Zhao Mingxuan walked, he explained the process to me.

I looked up information about you.

Although your data has been synchronized into the General Administration's system, the physical A-level consultant certificate has not yet been produced.

We'll do it all at once this time.

During our conversation, I followed him into the elevator to the sixth floor of the building and into the archives department at the end of the corridor.

The security level here is significantly higher than one level.

Not only are there heavy blast doors, but two special agents carrying live ammunition also stand at the entrance.

The head of the archives department was a middle-aged woman who wore thick-rimmed glasses.

After she checked the information I submitted, she handed me a small metal tray.

"Consultant Chen, please upload your old identification documents."

The woman's voice was businesslike.

I took the black card out of my pocket and gently placed it on the tray.

The woman placed the black card into a machine to destroy it, then pointed to a device next to her that resembled a medical pod.

"Next, we will conduct the highest level of verification."

It requires not only your fingerprints and pupils, but also the recording of your unique internal energy fluctuation frequency.

Please step inside and release a trace of your most primal inner energy.

I followed his instructions and went into the equipment to operate it as required.

When I injected a wisp of malevolent energy into the sensor panel, the device emitted a soft beep.

Then, the various indicators on the screen spiked instantly, causing the middle-aged woman's expression to change.

After that, the look in her eyes became less rigid and more respectful.

About ten minutes later, a brand new certificate was handed to me with both hands.

Unlike the previous black cards, this A-level consultant's certificate has a dark purple cover, and the material feels like leather but not quite, with a faint, warm spiritual energy emanating from it.

I opened it and found that in addition to my basic information and photo, it also had the General Administration's official seal.

And a special golden symbol.

"Verification complete, where to next?"

After glancing at it twice, I put the new ID card into my pocket and turned to look at Zhao Mingxuan.

"Next, we need the joint signatures of three deputy bureau chiefs for approval."

Zhao Mingxuan glanced at his watch.

"The leaders are all in the office today, we can just go directly there."

The rest of the process went so smoothly that even Zhao Mingxuan was surprised.

We visited the offices of three deputy directors in succession.

These three high-ranking and powerful figures were all unusually polite when they saw me.

One of them even smiled and offered me some words of encouragement, saying that young people have a bright future.

Then, with a flourish of his pen, he signed his name on the approval form.

As Zhao Mingxuan walked out of the last deputy director's office, he looked at the approval document covered in red stamps in his hand and couldn't help but swallow.

"Consultant Chen, I've worked in the External Liaison Department for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen the approval process for a Class A warehouse go so smoothly."

These three leaders are known for their strictness, but today they were practically...

It was as if it had been planned beforehand.

"Maybe I was just lucky."

I smiled gently, without revealing the reason behind it.

Lei Zhenshan's influence, or rather, the deterrent power of the Ninth Division, was clearly greater than I had imagined.

"Alright, all the paperwork is complete."

Zhao Mingxuan took a deep breath, carefully put the documents into his briefcase, and his expression became very serious.

"Consultant Chen, please come with me."

The Class A warehouse is not located in this building.

He led me away from the main building, across the courtyard, and to a seemingly abandoned two-story red brick building at the back.

There were no guards around the small building, and not even a single security camera could be seen.

But as I approached, the evil core within my body twitched slightly.

I could clearly sense that this inconspicuous little building was surrounded by at least a dozen different schools of top-notch feng shui formations and warning barriers.

Anyone who attempts to force their way in and is not an insider will be instantly torn to pieces.

Zhao Mingxuan walked to the rusty iron gate of the small building. Instead of taking out his key, he pulled out a jade pendant from his collar and pressed it into a groove in the center of the iron gate.

With a dull creak of mechanical gears meshing, the iron doors slowly slid open to the sides, revealing a spacious metal elevator.

"Consultant Chen, this elevator goes directly to 90 meters underground."

The Class A warehouse was built deep inside the air-raid shelter there.

Zhao Mingxuan gestured for me to go inside.

The elevator ran very smoothly, but the feeling of weightlessness as it continued to descend was still very noticeable.

More than two minutes passed before the elevator finally stopped with a "ding".

The metal door opened, and a rich, almost tangible spiritual energy mixed with the ancient aura of various objects rushed out.

What appeared before me was a long passageway.

The walls of the passageway were all made of thick special alloy, and the ceiling was inlaid with lights that emitted a cold light.

At the end of the passageway is a huge bronze double door, five meters high and three meters wide.

In front of the bronze gate, there was an old rattan chair.

An elderly man with gray hair, dressed in a gray Zhongshan suit, was lying on a rattan chair, holding a purple clay teapot in his hand, seemingly resting with his eyes closed.

"Mr. Qi, I apologize for disturbing you."

This is Chen Yang, the consultant from Jiangcheng. These are his approval documents.

Zhao Mingxuan strode forward and handed over the document with both hands, his attitude extremely respectful.

The old man, known as Elder Qi, slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were somewhat cloudy, making him look like an ordinary retired old man.

But when his gaze fell on me, I felt an immense, suffocating spiritual force sweep over me.

That power was as vast as the sea, absolutely surpassing the Dan realm.

I met the old man's gaze and nodded slightly in greeting.

"He's a promising talent; he has a very solid foundation."

Old Qi spoke slowly, exuding composure.
