Chapter 66: Progress

Su Xiao had been curious about one thing before, and that was how the Shadow of Law-Extermination fought against mages.

And now it seemed that "Magic-Resistant Constitution" was his effective means of countering mages.

In Su Xiao's understanding, the most difficult part of fighting a mage was how to get close to the opponent.

Mages were generally long-range, while he was melee; "Magic-Resistant Constitution" gave him the capital to get close to mages.

And after he got close to a mage, the battle was basically declared over.

Su Xiao had noticed in the trading market of Reincarnation Paradise that most mages had thin arms and legs; after being closed in by him, he was the "daddy"!

Magic-Resistant Constitution had two abilities.

The first one was quite pitfall, which was that he could not learn spell skills, and the second was to be immune to 40% of spell damage.

Not being able to learn spell skills did not mean not being able to learn skills; there were many abilities in Reincarnation Paradise that did not fall into the category of spell skills.

Most passive skills were not counted as spell skills.

And regarding the understanding of "cannot learn spell skills", Su Xiao thought it should be "cannot learn mage skills" which was the correct answer.

It was reasonable to think so; he was the Shadow of Law-Extermination. If he threw out a fireball skill or something similar during a battle, it would be nothing more than incongruous.

When inheriting the "Shadow of Law-Extermination", judging from the attitude of those six sculptures, they should be very hostile to mages, which was why the Shadow of Law-Extermination could not learn mage skills.

However, all things were relative; while unable to learn spell skills, he also obtained high spell resistance.

The next day.

Su Xiao got up very early, took off his patient gown, and changed into his usual clothes.

"Mr. Bai Ye, why are you up? Lie back down quickly, your injuries are very serious."

A young nurse in a white coat hurriedly blocked Su Xiao's way.

"It's okay, I have already recovered."

The young nurse became serious.

"No!"

This young nurse was very responsible; as a First-Class Investigator, Su Xiao naturally had specialized personnel to care for him.

Su Xiao patted the young nurse's soft shoulder, shifted his body, and came behind her.

"Wait......"

The young nurse just wanted to speak, but was pulled by a colleague on the side.

"Xingzi, forget it. Investigators all have their own missions; we just need to help them treat their injuries.

This is Mr. Bai Ye's check-up report for today; it has already met the standard for discharge."

Xingzi obviously didn't believe it, took the report, and checked it carefully.

"How is this possible? What kind of physical fitness is this?"

Su Xiao walked out of the hospital gate, immediately took out his phone, and dialed the number of Shinohara Yukinori.

"Special Class Shinohara, I have been discharged. The plan to clear the 14th Ward can continue."

Receiving Su Xiao's call, Shinohara Yukinori was a little surprised.

"Is your body okay?"

"No problem."

"That's good, return to the branch first. It's still the original personnel, but Juuzou's injuries haven't recovered yet and he cannot participate in the clearing of the 14th Ward."

Su Xiao hailed a taxi and drove to the branch.

Twenty minutes later, in Shinohara Yukinori's office.

"Personnel have been mobilized. I don't care where you got the information about the ghoul gathering place; I just need a result, to make the 14th Ward a safe area like the 20th Ward."

The scope of the 14th Ward was not small; if the 14th Ward was cleared, it could house a large population and reduce the threat of ghouls to humans.

"Can do."

After Su Xiao finished speaking, he made a gesture to leave the office.

"Bai Ye, have you heard recently that the headquarters is going to have a big move in the 11th Ward?"

Su Xiao's footsteps stopped.

The big move in the 11th Ward that Shinohara Yukinori mentioned might be the scene in the original work where Kaneki Ken was captured and the CCG fought against Aogiri Tree.

"The recent 11th Ward is becoming more and more chaotic. An organization called Aogiri Tree is actually publicly attacking and killing local Ghoul Investigators. I have to rush to the 20th Ward in four days. By then, I don't know who will be transferred to the 14th Ward to preside over the overall situation, so the plan to clear the 14th Ward must be as soon as possible.

I can support you, but it doesn't mean others will support you. I can understand your hatred for ghouls; your father and I once expelled ghouls together."

Shinohara Yukinori obviously misunderstood something; Su Xiao's identity was forged by Reincarnation Paradise.

However, this misunderstanding was beneficial to Su Xiao, and he would not correct it.

"Four days, huh? I will try my best."

After speaking, Su Xiao left the office.

Time was indeed short; if Shinohara Yukinori was transferred away, who knew what changes would happen.

No one could ensure that the next Associate Special Class or Special Class Investigator transferred here would definitely support his plan.

The personnel participating in the clearing of the 14th Ward were already waiting in the hall, with Mado Akira standing at the very front.

Today, Mado Akira's expression was a bit strange, her eyes were dim and lusterless, and her blonde hair, which was usually neatly groomed, was just tied together casually today.

"First-Class Bai Ye, personnel are assembled and ready to depart at any time."

Mado Akira's eyes were red, and her spirit was not very focused.

"Depart."

Su Xiao didn't ask about Mado Akira's strangeness; he wouldn't go to pity the fragrant and cherish the jade. Now the remaining time was not much, and the main mission was more important.

According to the map marked by Itori, in an unfinished building in the suburbs, a large number of ghouls often gathered, with the number between 200 and 300.

This was a loose ghoul group with several leaders.

This time he was not rushing in alone; the number of ghouls was too large, and he needed to act according to his ability and borrow the power of the CCG.

While Su Xiao was sitting in the passenger seat thinking about countermeasures, the sound of liquid dripping came.

Looking sideways, Mado Akira, who was driving the vehicle, was actually already in tears.

Noticing Su Xiao's gaze, Mado Akira hurriedly turned her head to the side and wiped her nose.

"With your current state, the survival rate in this mission is no more than 20%."

Su Xiao leaned back in the passenger seat.

"Woo~."

Mado Akira could no longer bear it and cried out.

"First-Class Bai Ye, is dying in battle the fate of us investigators?"

Mado Akira spoke with a crying voice, and tears could not stop dripping.

"Investigators expel ghouls, and ghouls will also kill investigators. This is a very fair thing."

Su Xiao roughly guessed why Mado Akira was like this.

In the original work, Mado Akira's father, Mado Kureo, died in battle shortly after the plot began.

Now it seemed that Mado Kureo might have already died in battle.

Mado Kureo's death in battle meant that the plot had already begun, and Kaneki Ken had been transplanted with ghoul organs and had already become a ghoul.

The current time point was shortly after Kaneki Ken entered the Anteiku coffee shop and before he was captured.

However, Jason was killed by Su Xiao, so Kaneki Ken might be captured, but whether he would be tortured was unknown.

There were Qiyuezhe on the ghoul side. Given the powerful combat power that Kaneki Ken erupted after being "trained", the possibility of Kaneki Ken completing his transformation was very high.

Accompanied by Mado Akira's crying, the CCG motorcade arrived at the edge of the 14th Ward, which was near the ghoul gathering place. ===== CHAPTER 67 =====
