Chapter 69: Human Forbidden Zone
Seeing the achievement mission: (Scavenger), Su Xiao was quite surprised.
This was really an unexpected joy; whether it was 1 attribute point or 7% World Source, they were all very good rewards.
Even completing this achievement mission was more generous than the reward for his main mission.
Lighting a cigarette, blue smoke rose slowly.
Now the conditions required for the main mission (2) had been met, and he didn't need to expel ghouls anymore.
Although killing ghouls was a very cruel thing, Su Xiao had his own goals, and to achieve his goals, he would stop at nothing.
There were still 12 days left before the extreme time limit given by the main mission (2), and the time was very abundant.
"First-Class Bai Ye, what should we do next?"
Mado Akira had been following Su Xiao to expel ghouls for the past few days and was also very tired.
"Return to the branch."
The CCG motorcade quickly returned to the branch. As soon as he walked into the branch, Su Xiao saw Shinohara Yukinori and Juuzou Suzuya walking towards him.
"First-Class Bai Ye, is today's expulsion completed?"
Su Xiao was very famous in the 14th Ward branch, or rather, the entire CCG had heard his name now.
In eight days, he almost cleared the entire 14th Ward. This achievement might only be achieved by "that one".
Not only in the CCG, but even among ghouls, they had heard his name more or less.
Some ghouls would call him Bai Ye, while others would call him Black Reaper, because Su Xiao had black hair and black eyes, and his character of never leaving anyone alive led to the title of Black Reaper.
Among ghouls, almost all ghouls above S-rank had heard of Su Xiao, and even if they hadn't heard of Su Xiao, they definitely knew the "Black Reaper of the 14th Ward".
"Completed, I have basically cleared the ghouls in the 14th Ward."
Shinohara Yukinori smiled. This Special Class Investigator did not covet merit, but was happy that humans had another area to live safely.
"On behalf of all humans in the 14th Ward, I thank you, Superior Investigator Bai Ye!"
Su Xiao was stunned; Shinohara Yukinori actually knew the news that he was about to be promoted to Superior Investigator.
"Don't be surprised, news from headquarters will arrive soon. I am going to the 20th Ward today to meet with others. The situation in the 11th Ward is even more serious. Aogiri Tree has captured the branch in the 11th Ward, and that place has become the territory of ghouls."
Hearing Shinohara Yukinori's words, Su Xiao frowned.
The CCG branch in the 11th Ward was captured? This speed was too fast. If there was no influence from Qiyuezhe, Su Xiao would never believe it.
"It seems that a head-on war with Aogiri Tree is not far away. Is it convenient to disclose the specific time?"
Su Xiao wanted to find out the time of the war between the CCG and Aogiri Tree, which would be very beneficial to his actions.
"It's not clear yet, just said to go to the 20th Ward to form a 'Special Countermeasures Class'.
But Bai Ye, you have to go with me this time too."
Su Xiao looked at Shinohara Yukinori in confusion. Could it be that he was also a member of the "Special Countermeasures Class"?
"Although you are also going to the 20th Ward, you are not joining the 'Special Countermeasures Class'. The higher-ups have arranged a more important mission for you, of course, it is also very dangerous."
Su Xiao became interested.
"What mission?"
"Whack-a-mole!"
Su Xiao was petrified.
"Whack-a-mole?"
Shinohara Yukinori looked at Su Xiao amusedly, as if it was a very strange thing that Su Xiao didn't know "Whack-a-mole".
"Have you heard of the 24th Ward?"
Shinohara Yukinori's expression became serious.
Su Xiao had naturally heard of the 24th Ward. If the 1st to 4th Wards were dangerous areas where a large number of ghouls gathered, then the 24th Ward was a human forbidden zone.
A saying circulated in the CCG: Associate Special Class Investigators don't even have the qualifications to enter the 24th Ward alone.
The 24th Ward was not a specific area, but tunnels dug by ghouls in the underground of Tokyo, spreading throughout Tokyo.
These tunnels were intricate and complex, and the 24th Ward could not be fully explored to this day. Most Ghoul Investigators only dared to explore the periphery of the 24th Ward.
In the entire CCG, only one squad dared to go deep into the 24th Ward, and that squad was Squad Zero, and the captain of that squad was named Arima Kishou, the strongest investigator in CCG history, known as the undefeated investigator.
Now, the order from CCG headquarters was to let Su Xiao go to the 24th Ward to "whack-a-mole".
The danger level of the 24th Ward could be summarized in one paragraph.
That was, A-rank ghouls walked everywhere, S-rank ghouls were as common as dogs, and only SS-rank ghouls could barely shake.
However, this "shake" had a huge risk and could be killed at any time.
That's right, this was the 24th Ward, a human forbidden zone.
There, eating ghouls was a matter of course. The ghouls there couldn't eat human flesh at all because there were no humans there at all.
According to information obtained by Squad Zero, deep in the 24th Ward, that is, deep underground in Tokyo, there might be tens of thousands of ghouls, or even more.
"Interesting, is it 'whack-a-mole' on the periphery, or deep inside?"
Su Xiao's question made Shinohara Yukinori a little surprised. Ordinary people transferred to the 24th Ward would inevitably be afraid.
"It's a squad with Special Class Arima, and with your strength, of course, it's to go deep to 'whack-a-mole'."
After understanding the general situation, Su Xiao said goodbye to Shinohara Yukinori, who was rushing to the 20th Ward.
His transfer order hadn't arrived yet, and he would also rush to the 20th Ward later to meet with someone.
That afternoon, Su Xiao received the transfer order from CCG headquarters and obtained new credentials.
【Promoted to Superior Investigator, CCG contribution degree 2053/10000.】
Superior Investigator was certainly not the end. Above Superior Investigator, there were Associate Special Class Investigators and Special Class Investigators.
However, the main mission (2) only required becoming a Superior Investigator.
Su Xiao opened the mission option.
【Main Mission (2): Superior Investigator. (Achieved)】
Mission Difficulty: lv. 3.
Mission Introduction: Quickly improve your position in the CCG and prepare for subsequent missions.
Mission Information: Use any method to improve your status, such as wiping out ghouls, bribery, etc.
Mission Reward: 1 attribute point, 1500 Paradise Coins.
Mission Remaining Time: 12 days 16 hours.
Su Xiao could complete the mission at any time now. Just as he was about to complete the main mission (2), he suddenly thought of one thing.
If he completed the mission now, what would happen to the remaining 12 days and 13 hours of the mission?
You know, the longer you stay in the derived world, the more opportunities you have to get benefits.
The resources Su Xiao needed to become stronger were all obtained in the derived world. After returning to Reincarnation Paradise, he had no way to obtain resources.
By asking Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao learned that if he completed the main mission now, the remaining stay time would be cleared.
Su Xiao pondered for a while and decided not to complete the main mission for the time being.
Now he was the only one in the CCG camp. If he didn't complete the main mission (2), even if the Qiyuezhe in the ghoul camp completed the main mission (2), it would be of no use.
Judging from the form of the current main mission, the main mission (3) was very likely to be a confrontation mission. If he didn't complete the main mission (2), the Qiyuezhe in the ghoul camp could only wait.
He could complete the mission at any time, which was a great advantage.
If the time limit was not reached, Su Xiao's main mission (2) would not fail, which meant he had 12 more days of free time.
Now CCG headquarters sent him to the 24th Ward to "whack-a-mole" with Arima Kishou, which was undoubtedly an opportunity to fish for benefits.
The more ghouls there were, the greater the possibility of dropping treasure chests.
Su Xiao's hand was black, that's true, but he didn't believe that ghouls would never drop treasure chests. ===== CHAPTER 70 =====
