Chapter 358: 358 Incarnated Doe

~8 min read 1,407 words

If you say so... then I am considered to have returned kindness with enmity?

After listening to the red-haired director's words, Leon's expression couldn't help but be slightly embarrassed.

If things are really like that, maybe "Leon Laien" was gone six years ago, and there would be no existence of himself.

So that Lei Nade, although extremely scum, but destroyed the advent ritual, theoretically speaking, is indeed the savior of half of the capital's residents and himself.

If you count it this way, he really did the wrong thing. He should have said thank you to him first, and then killed him.

"Director."

After saying thank you to Lei Nade in his heart, Leon asked with flickering eyes:

"According to your guess, who should be the one who tried to descend six years ago among the masters of the Dead World?"

"Why do you ask this?"

The red-haired director narrowed her eyes upon hearing this, full of vigilance:

"You won't be planning to kill the master of the Dead World like this time, right?"

"How is it possible..."

Leon complained speechlessly:

"That is a master of the Dead World who has lived for I don't know how many years. I am just a small third-level cleaner, how could I have ideas about that kind of existence? I just ask, want to have a number in my heart."

"You'd better think so!"

The red-haired director snorted upon hearing this, and then warned with a frown:

"If it is like the Goddess of Wealth, killing it is killing it, and there will be no impact, but the master of the Dead World is different. Any existence that can be crowned with the name of 'Master of a World' is an existence that has made indispensable contributions to the normal operation of the whole world.

For example, the 【Road of No Return】 that guides the souls of the dead back to the world was created by the master of the Dead World 'First Dead One,' and he also relied on this merit to become one of the masters of the Dead World.

Among the remaining masters, 'Granny Crow Eye' created the 【Report Death Crow Nest】 that predicts death, and the 【Corpse Corridor】 that announces death; 'Wailing Puppet' established the 【City of Regret】 and 【Ghost Swamp】; 'Faceless One' created the 【Black and White Bridge】 and..."

After briefly talking about the names and merits of several masters of the Dead World, the red-haired director's eyes were slightly cold:

"As for the one who tried to descend six years ago, it should be the 'Incarnated Doe' among the masters of the Dead World. The 【Burial Mirror Lake】 where Auntie Ai Ma stayed before, as well as the 【Corpse Soil Black Forest】 and 【Bone Palace】 that I took you through, were all created by it."

That... that master of the Dead World is responsible for letting the dead shed their fake flesh and clothes after understanding their own death, making them naked and pure souls, and has made no small contribution to the return of the souls of the dead to the world.

So we can't really kill it. Even if it really succeeded in descending six years ago and caused a large number of deaths in the capital, the bureau can only drive it back to the Dead World and force it to enter a deep sleep, and can't really kill it.

Otherwise, the three places it created will collapse rapidly. Before the new corresponding rules are generated, a large number of dead will stay on the Road of No Return and cannot return to the world normally, causing the operation of the Dead World to appear chaotic."

So Senior Auntie Ai Ma's revenge can't be reported?

Leon said with some unwillingness:

"If a large number of dead stay, what will be the problem?"

"The problem is very serious."

The red-haired director sighed:

"When the third-generation director was still alive, he once led people to kill a master of the Dead World, causing the 【Valley of Ignorance】 responsible for erasing the excess wisdom of the dead to collapse, making a large number of souls stay before the 【City of Regret】."

And in the next fifteen years, without a large-scale war, the number of newborn souls in the world decreased by about one-twentieth, and there was even a trend of continuing to decrease.

Having no choice, the bureau had to send a large number of cleaners to stay in the Dead World, bury those souls that were too intelligent, and slowly decompose them in unconsciousness until new rules were formed... That place was later called the Sage Cemetery, and the third-generation director's coffin was buried there."

"..."

Outrageous... so you really did it?

After listening to the mess that the Cleaning Bureau had made in the past, Leon couldn't help but support his forehead with his hand, feeling that this world was really a grass-roots team, and every seemingly outrageous "rule" behind it was afraid that it meant a huge accident that had happened once...

"Now you understand why I don't want to tell Auntie Ai Ma the truth, right?"

The red-haired director said helplessly:

"I understand your mood, but many things in this world are like this, destined not to have a perfect ending. For Auntie Ai Ma, perhaps now is the best result."

"Also, although that Golden Cuckoo Marquis is a complete bastard, he did take away little Ai Li, and didn't let her die directly under the red cedar tree. Maybe the advent ritual was destroyed like this... so if the situation is really as I guessed, and there is a master of the Dead World who wants to descend, then he can be considered to have saved half of the capital's people..."

"These damn guys are endless. After pressing one, there is the next one. If you are not careful, you will drill into the house like a mouse and destroy it, which is simply annoying... Right, I am preparing to have two drinks after work, are you coming?"

"Huh?"

Leon, who was still listening with a serious expression, was stunned by the director's topic change. After reacting to what she was saying, his face collapsed, and he shook his head without hesitation:

"Don't go! I have already quit drinking! And Director, you also have to drink less! Have you forgotten what you promised Taurus?"

"Tsk... boring!"

The kind invitation was met with Leon's stern refusal and serious reminder, and the red-haired director couldn't help but pout:

"Then I'll go by myself!"

"It's... it's not that relaxation is not okay... but drinking really delays things!"

Leon, who was still thinking about the conspiracy of the "Incarnated Doe," couldn't help but remind:

"Director, your ability is absolutely nothing to say when you are sober, but when you are drunk, the flaws are too big. In case someone invades when you are drunk..."

"Then the question is, they are indeed easy to deal with when I am drunk, but how do they know whether I am drunk or not?"

"?"

The red-haired director who had already walked to the door turned her head and smiled:

"Remember, when someone has a weakness that everyone knows, then you have to be careful."

After giving Leon a meaningful look, in Leon's slightly widened eyes, the red-haired director smiled:

"A person who is impeccable at all times cannot remain vigilant at all times, even if they are always careful, it is inevitable that there will be times of slack."

"But a person who is impeccable when sober and full of flaws when drunk, as long as the opponent is not a fool, they will choose to act when she is drunk... do you understand what I mean?"

"..."

In that case, you only need to be extra vigilant when drunk, and you can be slightly slack at ordinary times? Even... you are not really drunk every time? Most of the time you are fishing?

Looking at Leon, whose eyes widened slightly and whose face was full of disbelief, the red-haired director couldn't help but smile triumphantly, and blinked her beautiful fox eyes slightly.

"Learn it, little Leon."

"Although your talent is good, in terms of how to intrigue with opponents, you are still too tender." ===== CHAPTER 359 =====

"Learn from this, little Li Ang.

Although your talent is good, you are still wet behind the ears when it comes to how to scheme against opponents."
