Chapter 761

~8 min read 1,419 words

If you say so... I am considered to be returning kindness with ingratitude?

After listening to the red-haired bureau chief's words, Li Ang's expression couldn't help but be slightly embarrassed.

If things were really like that, maybe "Li Ang Laien" would have been gone six years ago, and there would be no existence of himself.

So although that Leonard is extremely scum, he destroyed the advent ritual. In theory, he is indeed the savior of most of the residents of the capital, and his own savior.

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

……

"Bureau Chief."

After saying thank you to Leonard in his heart, Li Ang's eyes flickered and asked:

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

"Why do you ask this?"

The red-haired bureau chief narrowed her eyes upon hearing this, and said with vigilance:

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

"How is it possible..."

Li Ang complained speechlessly:

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

"You'd better think so!"

The red-haired bureau chief hummed 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 Dead World master is different. Any existence that can be crowned with the name of 'Master of a World' is an existence that has provided indispensable help 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 Dead World master 'First Dead', and he also relied on this achievement to become one of the masters of the Dead World.

Among the remaining masters, 'Crow Eye Granny' created the 【Report Death Crow Nest】 that predicts death, and the 【Funeral Corridor】 that announces death; 'Sorrowful Puppet' established 【Regret City】 and 【Ghost Marsh】; 'Faceless Man' created 【Black and White Bridge】 and..."

After briefly explaining the names and achievements of several Dead World masters, the red-haired bureau chief said coldly:

"As for that Dead World master who tried to descend six years ago, it should be the 'Flesh-Receiving Doe' among the Dead World masters. The 【Funeral Mirror Lake】 where Auntie Ai Ma stayed before, as well as the 【Corpse Soil Black Forest】 and 【White Bone Palace】 I took you to walk through, are all three places created by it.

That... that Dead World master is responsible for letting the dead shed false flesh and clothing 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, not 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 taken?

Li Ang said with some unwillingness:

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

"The problem is very serious."

The red-haired bureau chief sighed:

"When the third-generation bureau chief was still alive, he once killed a Dead World master, causing the 【Dull Spirit Valley】 that erases the excess wisdom of the dead to collapse, making a large number of souls stay before 【Regret City】.

And in the next fifteen years, without large-scale wars, the world's newborn souls were about one-twentieth less, and there was even a trend of continuing to decrease.

Having no choice, the bureau had to send a large number of Cleaning Agents 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 【Sage Cemetery】, and the coffin of the third-generation bureau chief was buried there."

"..." It's outrageous... so you really did it?

After listening to the bureau chief finish the chaos caused by the Cleaning Bureau in the past, Li Ang couldn't help but support his forehead with his hand, feeling that this world is really a grass-roots team, and every seemingly outrageous "regulation" behind it probably means a huge accident that once happened...

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

The red-haired bureau chief 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, maybe now is the best result.

Hey... in short, if you really insist on having something with Auntie Ai Ma, then I definitely won't stop you, but her and Ai Li's situation is too special, you have to be prepared.

Especially Ai Li, I suspect she is the advent body chosen by the 'Flesh-Receiving Doe' back then. Although the advent ritual was interrupted, after she finds her body, that deer might not be able to use this to descend, but it might take the opportunity to do something.

These damn guys are really 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... By the way, I am going to drink two cups after work, are you coming?"

"Ah?"

Li Ang, who was still listening with a serious face, was stunned by the bureau chief'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 bureau chief, you also have to drink less! Have you forgotten what you promised Lord Taurus?"

"Tsk... boring!"

The kind invitation to relax was met with Li Ang's stern refusal and serious reminder, and the red-haired bureau chief couldn't help but curl her lips:

"Then I'll go myself!

Really... I squatted down there for several days, and had a big fight with Water Bottle, it's very hard, okay? Can't I relax?"

"It's not that relaxing is not okay... but drinking really misleads things!"

Li Ang, who was still thinking about the conspiracy of the "Flesh-Receiving Doe," couldn't help but remind:

"When you are sober, your ability is definitely nothing to say, but when you are drunk, the flaws are too big. What if someone invades when you are drunk..."

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

"?"

The red-haired bureau chief who had walked to the door looked back and smiled:

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

After giving Li Ang a meaningful look, in Li Ang's somewhat surprised eyes, the red-haired bureau chief 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 Li Ang, whose eyes widened slightly and whose face was full of disbelief, the red-haired bureau chief couldn't help but smile triumphantly, and blinked her beautiful fox eyes slightly.

"Learn it, little Li Ang~

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