A man sitting cross-legged remained motionless despite the shaking ground. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, his gaze intense and dazzling. He looked towards a certain point in the night and murmured, "Interesting. In this mere Fangyuan City, someone has actually managed to decipher the Harvest Seed I planted."
"What a pity... If Jiangxing Mountain hadn't been suddenly besieged and all the divine messengers hadn't been wiped out, I originally planned to return to Fangyuan City in a few days to reclaim the life energy I had accumulated and use it to improve myself. I never expected that it would all be for nothing."
After a brief sigh, he shook his head gently, his expression relieved: "So be it, so be it. If I gain it, I am fortunate; if I lose it, it is my fate."
“Now that all the other divine envoys have perished and none of the three supreme god-kings have survived, the God Lord’s grand plan cannot be shelved. I, Juyang, will naturally take on this responsibility without hesitation. From now on, I, Juyang, will assume the position of god-king.” In an instant, his expression suddenly became solemn, and an extremely strong ambition surged in his eyes.
"That's right, Giant Sun God King, who else but me deserves this high position!" The man stood up, looked up at the night sky, and laughed loudly. The earth trembled even more violently, and swathes of trees fell to the ground, startling crows and beasts in the forest into scattering and fleeing.
Finally, he gazed wistfully towards Fangyuan City: "Enjoy your peaceful days for now. Once I, the God-King, go to another city to hone my skills, it will be the death knell for everyone in your city!"
He wants to use the lives of everyone in Fangyuan City to declare to China that God cannot be insulted!
Blasphemy deserves death!
Born of the Great Sun, destined by fate, he was destined to be the first general under the God Lord, capable of expanding his territory and bringing endless nightmares to everyone on the entire Blue Star.
Chapter 140 The Giant Sun That Was Targeted
Early in the morning, Mu hope sat in front of the dressing mirror, neatly tied up her long black hair, applied light makeup, changed into a smart OL business suit, and hurriedly went to the Tianming headquarters.
Upon arriving at her workstation, she didn't even sit down. Instead, carrying a pile of documents she had prepared the night before, she strode quickly toward the minister's office in her high heels.
"Dong dong."
"Enter."
Mu hope pushed open the door and walked quickly to the desk. Lin Guohui was boiling water to make tea. She bowed slightly and said respectfully, "The operation to annihilate the Divine Envoys at Jiangxing Mountain has officially ended, and our side has won a great victory. In this battle, we annihilated 144 Divine Envoys and captured 21. Only the Order God King was rescued by Otto at the last moment and escaped by chance."
After speaking, she placed a detailed battle report on the table and then added, "According to the previous interrogation of the prisoner Wang Bo, the total number of divine messengers is 172. This operation has eliminated and captured a total of 165 people, and there are still 7 people on the run whose whereabouts are unknown."
Lin Guohui flipped through the reports and casually asked, "Have the identities of these seven people been verified?"
"The whole thing has been investigated and clarified."
Muxi replied, "These seven people are all guilty of serious crimes and have been severely punished according to the law. Like the divine messenger, they were secretly rescued from prison or resurrected and recruited by Otto. A nationwide arrest warrant has been issued, and all magical girls have been notified. Once discovered, these seven people will be arrested or eliminated immediately."
Lin Guohui nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.
"There's another task that requires your approval," Mu hope continued. "Just this morning at five o'clock, Liu Caiwei led her team to successfully escort all the prisoners and the seized Negative Seeds back to headquarters. How should they be handled and disposed of afterward?"
Lin Guohui pondered for a moment before speaking: "The Negative Seed will be transferred to the Third Laboratory, with Zuo Yi in full charge, to conduct in-depth research on its characteristics and see if any useful value can be extracted. All prisoners will be imprisoned in the Special Interrogation Room, where special personnel will take turns interrogating them to extract more intelligence."
"Ok."
Muxi then handed over a battle merit report: "This is a complete list of battle merits for all the magical girls who participated in this battle. Please review and confirm it. If there are no problems, I will arrange to distribute the Lament Seed rewards later."
Lin Guohui took the report and scanned it line by line. When he saw the name at the top of the list, he paused for a moment and muttered to himself, "Zhong Hui? I feel like I've seen that name several times before..."
Seeing this, Mu hope smiled and helped to clarify: "She's the newly minted magical girl from Tai'an County who was targeted by Qiu Bi. She belongs to the Floating Light Squad of Fangyuan City. During the subsequent witch invasion, she single-handedly fought dozens of calamity beasts across the country, stabilizing Fangyuan City's defenses and making many contributions..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lin Guohui slapped his forehead, suddenly realizing, "Oh, I remember now! In the protest video about the K1 Titan battle, there was someone who single-handedly destroyed ten Titans, wasn't that her?"
"Yes."
"Amazing!" Lin Guohui exclaimed in amazement. "From the Tai'an County incident to now, it's only been a little over two months, and she has actually advanced from a newly promoted magical girl to a three-star level, and can even fight against opponents of higher levels. This level of combat power advancement is almost comparable to that of the first generation of magical girls."
"She's really amazing." Mu hope couldn't help but exclaim. "Most of the participants this time are five-star magical girls. In such a situation of disparity in strength, it's truly unexpected that she can still get the top spot on the battle merit list with only three-star strength."
Of course, Zhong Hui's outstanding performance was also due to his solo kill of the eight divine envoys in Fangyuan City. Otherwise, based solely on his achievements in this encirclement and suppression campaign, he would never have been able to secure first place.
"Could this be... a case of extraordinary talent? Or a hero made by the times?"
Lin Guohui smiled and shook his head, picked up the pen on the table, and signed his name decisively.
Mu hope took the signed documents but stood there, showing no intention of leaving. Instead, she seemed hesitant to speak.
Seeing this, Lin Guohui looked up and asked, "Is there something else?"
Muxi nodded somewhat awkwardly, pondered for a moment, and then tentatively asked, "Minister, why weren't the Seven Star Magical Girls assigned to accompany this operation? If Lady Cecilia were present, the God of Order would definitely not have been able to be saved, and might even have been able to stop Otto..."
When did you become so gossipy?
Although Lin Guohui was somewhat surprised, he patiently explained, "The reason is simple: Otto's strength is too great, and the other seven magical girls cannot stop him. Making a rash move might anger him. As for Cecilia, she is too impulsive. Last time, she broke into the enemy's lair alone. If someone hadn't helped her, she might not have come back alive. I dare not let her make a move again, lest she cause any more trouble."
"But what if Otto attacks our people on the spot? Without the Seven Star Magical Girls to protect us, the risk is too great," Mu hope said, expressing her concerns.
Just then, the kettle boiled, and the hot water hissed. Lin Guohui picked up the kettle and filled the enamel cup containing the tea leaves with hot water before calmly replying, "I am, after all, the Minister of Destiny. Do you really think I wouldn't have foreseen this kind of risk?"
Mu hope was taken aback, and hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean to question you, I was just worried..."
"Don't be nervous, I'm not blaming you."
Lin Guohui waved his hand to interrupt her, and chuckled, "I think I've figured it out. These aren't the questions you want to ask, are they? A magical girl asked you to ask me these questions."
Mu hope didn't hide anything and readily nodded in acknowledgment.
"Xie Baiwei?" Lin Guohui tried to guess.
Mu hope's eyes widened instantly, and she said incredulously, "How did you guess it on the first try?"
"Of those four, Xie Baiwei is the only one with this kind of personality, always wanting to get to the bottom of things." Lin Guohui took a sip of hot tea. "And since you two happen to be friends, she's naturally a prime suspect."
"Minister, you're amazing!" Mu hope quickly added, trying to smooth things over, "Bai Wei didn't mean anything by it, she just wanted to..."
"You don't need to be nervous, and you don't need to explain."
Lin Guohui touched his face and chuckled, "Do I look that fierce? I've never put on airs before, so why are you all so reserved in front of me?"
Mu hope first nodded subconsciously, then quickly shook her head, looking extremely embarrassed.
Lin Guohui was both amused and exasperated: "Is it yes or no?"
"Minister, you are a very nice person, without any airs at all," Mu hope said softly with her head down. "It's just that you are too great. You single-handedly gathered magical girls to create Destiny, ended the Dark Ages, and made the witches disappear. You are a great man worthy of being recorded in history. Facing you, I always feel that I must do well enough, and over time I have put pressure on myself."
"Haha, it's not that amazing."
"Young people shouldn't put too much pressure on themselves, or they'll get wrinkles and gain weight," Lin Guohui said half-jokingly. "Since Xie Baiwei asked you to ask, it's not right for me to let you go back empty-handed. Just tell her: I've already arranged all the plans, don't just focus on the present."
"Thank you, Minister! I understand!"
Mu hope smiled, bowed, and thanked them. She turned and walked to the door, but suddenly stopped and turned back, saying, "I almost forgot. Li Zekai, the person in charge of combat mechs, asked me to convey that the research on K2 Genesis has made a major breakthrough, and the first batch of prototypes is expected to be built within ten days."
"Okay, I see."
Mu hope bowed again, gently closed the door, and turned to handle the rest of her work.
The footsteps in the corridor gradually faded away until they disappeared completely. The smile on Lin Guohui's face slowly faded, and he sipped his fragrant tea alone, his eyes becoming deep and dark, like an ancient well with no bottom.
He muttered to himself, "The enforcers are about to be born, but the new troubles that come with them are probably about to begin..."
…………
The sun was high in the sky.
Cangxing groggily got out of bed, wearing a loose pink bathrobe, and went to Zhong Hui's door, gently patting it.
The door creaked open easily. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked inside; the bed was empty.
Cangxing leaned weakly against the door frame, full of doubt: "Strange, last night the whole city was cracking down on prostitution and rescuing women who had been 'planted' with sperm. They were busy until three or four in the morning. Why aren't they in bed catching up on sleep? Where did they go?"
"Wang!"
A clear, crisp bark suddenly rang out.
Cangxing looked down at the sound and found Xiaobai squatting at her feet, sticking out her tongue and looking at her pitifully.
She stared at Xiaobai for several seconds before suddenly realizing what was happening.
Yesterday morning I checked for dangers, at noon I staked out the target, in the afternoon I guarded Wang Bo and attended the post-battle meeting, and at night I launched a city-wide crackdown on prostitution. I was busy day and night. Xiao Bai didn't eat lunch or dinner yesterday, and this morning I didn't feed it because it was too sleepy.
It's like they've gone three meals without eating; they're so hungry they've come begging for food.
"Look at my memory, you must be starving!"
Feeling guilty, Cangxing quickly brought out dog food and filled the dog bowl.
Little Whitey barked happily twice and immediately buried its head in its rice.
Cangxing sat on the living room sofa, trying to shake off her sleepiness while looking around the house, searching for Zhong Hui.
However, the entire house was quiet and deserted. She looked around several times but still couldn't find any trace of Zhong Hui.
"Could he have gone out? Doesn't he need to sleep?" Cang Xing took out his phone, thinking of making a call to ask about the situation.
Just then, the tightly closed door was opened, and Cangxing subconsciously looked up and saw Zhong Hui, who had disappeared, walking in wearing a short-sleeved shirt and carrying a plastic bag.
Cangxing stepped forward, looked at the contents of the bag, and said, "Why didn't you stay home and catch up on your sleep? Why did you go out to buy breakfast?"
“I am not sleepy and do not need to take a nap,” Zhong Hui said. “Last night I helped someone resolve the seed and I had some insights, so I found a beautiful place in the spiritual mountains to cultivate and successfully completed the nurturing of the spirit field. On the way back, I thought that you probably hadn’t gotten up and eaten yet, so I bought you a breakfast on the way.”
"Thank you for your kindness." Cang Xing picked up a steamed bun without ceremony and started eating, his words muffled. "It's still warm, thanks."
She had been busy all day and stayed up all night, and slept until almost noon, her stomach growling with hunger. Now, faced with the fragrant steamed buns, shumai, and dumplings, she devoured them in no time.
After finishing the yogurt in one gulp, Cangxing leaned back on the sofa, patting her stomach contentedly, and casually remarked, "These peaceful days are so comfortable. Yesterday was incredibly busy; if I had to go through this a few more times, I'm afraid I would have lost several years of my life."
Zhong Hui sat to the side, sipping his freshly picked-up Sprite, and replied, "I'm a bit tired, but at least I saved a lot of lives."
“That’s true.” Cang Xing recalled the experience of last night. “You know what, that giant yang’s body is really good. He actually planted seeds in the bodies of thirty-five women.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she sighed again: "Two hundred and seventy-two people in total, each of whom had ten years of their lifespan taken away. The price they paid was really high."
"This also proves the danger of Ju Yang. In my opinion, this person should be eliminated as soon as possible!" Zhong Hui narrowed his eyes, his expression serious.
"That's true, but the world is so big, if he wants to hide, we won't be able to find him."
"That's not necessarily true. Finding him is a piece of cake." Under Cang Xing's questioning gaze, Zhong Hui slowly took out a long, emerald-green seed from his pocket.
"Why are you still keeping this?" Cangxing asked.
"It can help us find the Giant Sun God Messenger."
Upon hearing this, Cang Xing, who had been enjoying himself immensely, immediately sat up straight, staring intently at the seed, and asked, "You can use this to find the location of the giant sun?"
“Of course I can.” Zhong Hui smiled calmly. “You’ve forgotten, last time I found the Wish Witch by relying on a sticky note.”
Upon hearing this, Cang Xing instantly recalled the event and excitedly asked, "Where is that giant sun now?"
"A thousand miles north of here lies an unnamed, desolate mountain."
In Zhong Hui's vision, the green seed in his hand was entwined with several causal branches, some thick, some thin, and some spaced apart. The one that was the darkest in color, the thickest, and the furthest apart was related to the giant sun.
"Let's not delay, let's go and catch him!" Cang Xing couldn't wait, rubbing his hands together in anticipation.
"We must capture Juyang, but the distance is so far, it will definitely take a lot of time to get there."
