Chapter 297: 296 The Director's Passing

"Dear little Hearing Hearing Li Ang, when you see this letter, I should already be gone."

Looking at this opening of his own Director, which was not wrong but not very auspicious, Hearing Hearing Li Ang, who had spent 9 copper wheels on the boat and transfer, finally returned to the Bureau of Cleaning, couldn't help but turn black.

"The plan for the Water Bottle has already started. Taurus is working with the other two directors to influence the Water Bottle Director through the 【Instruction List】, forcing him to accept the irradiation of the 【Death World Street Lamp】."

"To ensure that the plan doesn't go wrong, and to prevent the Water Bottle Director from leaving a way to escape the Death World, I'm going to squat on the Road of No Return in the Death World for a month or two. People going to the death world must pass through there. I'll come back when I see the Water Bottle Director on the Road of No Return."

"……"

6, so that opening sentence of yours really wasn't a misuse of words, you are indeed "gone," right?

Also, although I don't know where the Road of No Return is, the name "Road of No Return to the Death World" sounds like the kind of place that kills people. You make it sound like you can go whenever you want and leave whenever you want, as easy as going out for a trip...

Really absurd!

Looking at the somewhat sloppy handwriting of the red-haired Director, imagining the scene of his own red-haired Director knocking down the unlucky employee responsible for guarding the Road of No Return on the gloomy road full of dead people staggering forward, and then drinking while throwing empty beer cans around, Hearing Hearing Li Ang's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"Little Hearing Hearing Li Ang, your mission with Peony should be the first one completed, but based on my understanding of him, after the mission is completed, he will definitely go out to play for a few days before coming back, so the first one to see the letter must be you."

"After Auntie Auntie Ai Ma comes back from the Scale-Weighing Sect, remember to help me tell Auntie Auntie Ai Ma that this time is the same as usual. When I'm not here, her missions are all suspended, and she is responsible for guarding the Bureau."

"To prevent the General Bureau from issuing some temporary requirements, and because the 【Celestial Sphere Mirror】, which can only receive information from the living, cannot be used on the Road of No Return, I simply didn't bring it. It's currently in the office. You should let Auntie Auntie Ai Ma collect it."

"Also, don't drink up all the wine Taurus gave you. I already have a way to bypass the verbal constraints and drink those good wines. You must leave some for me."

"Love you!? (^)"

"……"

I don't know why, but I always feel that compared to other words, the second to last sentence is what you most want to say...

Looking at the small smiling face winking at him at the end of the envelope, Hearing Hearing Li Ang couldn't help but click his tongue, then reached out and pinched his eyebrows, feeling a little worried.

The mission to attack the airship went wrong and was squatted by the middle-aged Watching Watching Qiaoshuya. Although there were no casualties, he didn't know where he had sent the rebel members and Senior Peony.

He ran to the Director's office as soon as he came back, just to ask the Director to take action to fish them out, and by the way, tell her about the situation in the Kingdom of Kroke to see if the Bureau could intervene.

But he didn't expect the Director to take the first step. If the time in the letter was not estimated wrong, her people were probably already "down to the underworld." That would be... Hmm... why is this mirror flashing?

……

Looking at the silver mirror flashing in the wine cabinet, remembering the 【Celestial Sphere Mirror】 mentioned in the Director's letter, Hearing Hearing Li Ang couldn't help but frown, then reached out to pull open the cabinet door and tentatively touched it with his finger.

Name: Celestial Sphere Mirror 【Star Palace, Image】

Appearance: A mirror that actively changes material and carvings according to different communication targets. The current mirror frame material is silver, and the carving is iron 【oozing blood from inside】

Ability: Star Palace Positioning, Image Transmission

Cost: The cost is paid centrally by the General Bureau of the Bureau of Cleaning at the moment when the stars are dimmest every year, no need to bear the consumption separately

File: After the Star Dome Compass was shattered by the Supreme Four Pillar Gods, it was recast into the Eighty-Eight Star Palaces by the first Taurus Director, leaving behind a portion of fragments containing trace amounts of Star Palace power. Although the content is not much, it is extremely pure.

Considering that at that time, the Bureau of Cleaning lacked long-distance communication means, the first Taurus Director used these fragments to create hundreds of mirrors capable of cross-world communication, and distributed them to important members of the Bureau to carry with them, to ensure timely contact with each other.

Evaluation: Food-Eating Earthworm, Celestial Sphere Mirror, Mud Sha Book, these three anomalies created in batches are generally only available to branch directors, so they are also jokingly called the Director's Three-Piece Set within the Bureau of Cleaning, and you have already obtained two of them, congratulations.

Corruption Value: Increases with the total duration of communication and the distance from the target.

So... the effect of this mirror is equivalent to a mobile phone capable of cross-plane video calls? And it's the kind that the Bureau pays the annual fee for?

After understanding the function of the 【Celestial Sphere Mirror】, looking at the iron 【carving】 constantly moving and flashing on the mirror frame, Hearing Hearing Li Ang guessed that someone was "making a video call" to his own Director, so he reached out and tentatively rubbed the silver mirror frame.

"Hum"

Amidst the light vibration like a bee flapping its wings, the oozing iron 【carving】 moved and fixed itself at the top of the mirror frame, and a familiar voice followed.

"Olivia! You finally have some movement!"

Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma, whose face looked a bit pale and was stained with a large amount of blood, appeared in the mirror.

At this time, she seemed to be seriously injured. The beige slim dress had quite a few defects. There was a wound on her right leg like it had been bitten by the nail teeth of a trap, and there were traces of whip scratches like snake scales on her round shoulder exposed outside.

And the right hand holding the "mirror surface" had its five fingers twisted unnaturally. The onion-white little finger had been bent back to the back of the hand, seemingly having encountered some kind of giant force that could not be resisted, and had been forcibly twisted off.

"There is an ambush here at the Scale-Weighing Sect!"

In Hearing Hearing Li Ang's shocked gaze, Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma, who seemed to be suffering great pain and had cold sweat all over her temples, reported at a very fast speed:

"Water Bottle seems to know I'm coming. He contacted the Scale-Weighing Sect in advance. They directly brought the Snake Spirit down, and when I broke into 【the place】, they bit my leg."

"Although that snake is not my opponent and was temporarily beaten back by me, its status is higher than mine, so it can constantly 'buy' my immortal body through the wound left on my leg. Now it has bought more than three hundred..."

When Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma said this, as if to prove her words, an unknown currency flashing with strange brilliance suddenly appeared in her palm.

The moment the coin appeared, the brilliance in Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's eyes dimmed slightly, as if she had lost focus, and her body immediately stopped moving, leaning back slightly involuntarily...

"No! I can't die yet!"

Accompanied by a confused voice like a dream, Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma, whose right hand had begun to dissipate, stood firm again. And with the effect of the immortal body, all the injuries on her body recovered immediately, and even the twisted fingers corrected themselves.

But her situation only improved for a moment, and the pitch-black tooth marks on her thigh appeared again like a bone-attached maggot, and strands of bright red blood flowed down along the crack again...

"Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma?!"

Hearing Hearing Li Ang, who came back to his senses, tightened his expression and shouted at the mirror hurriedly:

"The Director is not in the Bureau! And I can't contact her for a short time. How long can you last over there?"

"Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma? Speak!"

"Who else can I contact? Is there any way? Is it too late to contact the General Bureau through the Royal Family? Can you still hold on?"

"Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma?"

……

I don't know if Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma was too seriously injured and lost consciousness directly, unable to hear Hearing Hearing Li Ang's words, or because Hearing Hearing Li Ang was not the owner of the Celestial Sphere Mirror and couldn't truly "connect" the video.

In short, no matter how Hearing Hearing Li Ang shouted, there was no response from Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma on the other side of the mirror. She just stood there with dull eyes, and even the picture in the mirror began to twist slightly, looking as if it could "disconnect" at any time.

No! Must hurry up and think of a way!

Not expecting to encounter such an urgent situation as soon as he returned to the Bureau, Hearing Hearing Li Ang couldn't help but clench his fists, annoyed that he hadn't thought of this earlier.

Since Watching Watching Qiaoshuya could contact the Scale-Weighing Sect and invite the Snake Spirit to plot against him, he could naturally inform the Scale-Weighing Sect of Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's whereabouts. Now that they were prepared, Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma was plotted against by that damned snake, and looking at the situation, it was not optimistic. He must hurry to help!

Holding the 【Celestial Sphere Mirror】 and rushing out of the Director's office, Hearing Hearing Li Ang ran wildly in the corridor on the first floor of the Bureau of Cleaning, wanting to see if there was anyone else, but all the office doors were closed tightly. At this moment, the 【Branch】 of the Bureau of Cleaning was just like what the Director said, leaving only himself.

Too pitfall, Director! Can't you recruit a few more people? Everyone's missions are arranged one after another, and you can't find anyone to support!

After complaining in his heart, Hearing Hearing Li Ang took a deep breath, then kicked the door of Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's office.

He definitely couldn't handle that snake, so he must find someone to help. Contacting the General Headquarters of the Bureau of Cleaning through the Royal Family should be the fastest way to ask for help at the moment.

But Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's state was not very good, and he didn't know how long she could last, so he must make two-handed preparations. While contacting the General Headquarters, it would be best for him to go to the 【Scale-Weighing Sect】 outside to make trouble, to see if he could help her reduce the pressure.

However, although he had returned to the city area of the capital, affected by the blessing of the Snake Spirit, the goat heart, whose effective range was greatly reduced, had re-established "contact" with those death row prisoners and obtained the immortal body again. But the strongest Holy Spirit pendant was still sealed, and his combat effectiveness at the moment was pitifully low. He must find a way to replenish a wave.

And in Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's office, there happened to be a pile of anomalies that looked like 【torture tools】. He and she both had immortal bodies, so maybe there were anomalies he could use among these things!

"Clang! Clang!"

After two heavy kicks, the cast-iron door lock was kicked off. Hearing Hearing Li Ang broke into Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's office. After confirming that there were no dangerous "anti-theft" measures, he took the initiative to reach out toward the anomalies in the room.

Name: Executioner Suit No. 19 Hub Torture Wheel 【Flesh, Punishment】

Appearance: A huge wheel cast with iron caltrops, with special grooves for binding sinners, full of dark brown dried blood, emitting a bloody smell that never dissipates.

Ability: Flesh Wear, Sin Punishment

Cost: Bear the same damage and pain as the person being punished.

File: Auntie Auntie Ai Ma Alman, a level 1 cleaner of the 【Branch】 of the Bureau of Cleaning, used her immortal body as the foundation to build one of the supporting anomalies. There are 49 pieces in the Executioner Suit part.

When activated together with several anomalies such as 【Flower of Sin】, 【Joint Liability Book】, 【Blood-Thirsty Execution Platform】, etc., this anomaly can drag a maximum of 30,000 life forms within a capture range of twenty kilometers into the execution ground, binding them on the torture tools to accept a hub torture.

Subsequently, cooperating with 【Suffering Music Box】, 【Satisfactory Scale】, 【Repentance Thorn Crown】, 【Pain Poem】, etc., the pain suffered by the punished will be infinitely amplified and will cycle "play" without stopping.

If they fail to withstand the double torture of flesh and soul, and a trace of the thought of wanting to be liberated arises in their hearts, they will be forcibly captured by the 【Dead Hub】 supporting the 【Blood-Thirsty Execution Platform】 and sent directly to the death world, never to return.

Evaluation: A law-type anomaly that is quite mediocre when used alone, only the extra punishment effect for evil deeds is relatively special. But when activated in a set or used with specific anomalies, it can make even demons in hell tremble at its cruelty.

Corruption Value: 3.5

"Sss..."

◆￠o

After reading the introduction of the first anomaly, Hearing Hearing Li Ang couldn't help but gasp, understanding why the gentle and kind Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma was crowned with such a bloody nickname as "Corpse Hub Executioner."

Unlike him who was still pursuing the power of "single" anomalies, Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's anomalies were combination types.

Looking at the explanation, it is estimated that she uses the immortal body as the core, drags all targets into an execution ground that cannot escape, and then she herself suffers one execution, while everyone else suffers infinite times of pain-doubled punishment.

Besides that, the punished also have to undergo the "weighing" of the heart, repent for the sins they committed, suffer the double torture of body and mind, and once they cannot withstand it or admit their sins, they will be taken away on the spot by the anomaly connected to the death world.

And the capture target of this set of things is not one or two, but a full 30,000! 30,000!

……

Is this the strength of a level 1 elite cleaner?

Looking up at the various torture tools piled up in the room, Hearing Hearing Li Ang couldn't help but tremble slightly, and for the first time, he felt a little bit of fear toward the gentle and reliable Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma.

No wonder Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma never brought all her things, and even flipped the car in places like Red Brick Road Hospital. It turned out that her anomalies didn't distinguish between friend and foe after activation, and the scene was too bloody, so it was really not easy to take action in normal times.

If she really brought all 49 torture tools of the Executioner Suit, and also pulled the capture range of that 【Blood-Thirsty Execution Platform】 to the full, there would be a full 30,000 people sent to the execution platform.

These 30,000 unlucky people would not only have to accept the bloody torture of 49 kinds of terrifying torture tools that never stopped, but also have to cry and repent for their sins under the influence of the anomalies...

That is really no different from a living hell!

Compared to such a terrifying scene, Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's nickname could even be considered conservative.

After shaking his head slightly, Hearing Hearing Li Ang looked at the torture tools in the room, then took a deep breath and patted his shiny cuff.

Bring them! Bring them all! ===== CHAPTER 298 =====

That really was no different from a living hell!

Compared to such a terrifying scene, the nickname Senior Auntie Ai Ma gave could even be considered conservative.

After shaking his head slightly, Hearing Li Ang looked at the room full of torture instruments, then took a deep breath and reached out to pat his gleaming cufflinks.

Bring them! Bring them all!
