Chapter 1506 Candidate for Temporary Captain
“Special squad… captain?” Fang Mo clearly hadn’t considered this possibility and couldn’t react for a moment.
“Of course, establishing a special squad is much more complicated than you think, even if it’s just a reserve team.” Lin Qiye slowly said, “If you have this idea, I can contact Commander Zuo for you and see what he decides.”
Fang Mo and Li Zhenzhen exchanged glances, and after a moment, looked hesitantly at Chen Han.
After all, they were members of Squad 006, and if they left to establish their own special squad, this team stationed in Beijing would be left with only two people.
“If you want to do it, then go ahead.” Chen Han smiled slightly. “However, before the next batch of recruits arrives, I might need your special squad reserve team to help me guard Beijing.”
Chen Han was very clear about Fang Mo and Li Zhenzhen’s potential. Keeping them in Beijing would indeed be a waste of talent. As for the problem of insufficient personnel in the Beijing squad after they leave… since they’re establishing a special squad reserve team anyway, it would be reasonable for them to bring their team members to help eliminate the “mysteries” in Beijing, right?
This way, Fang Mo could lead the special squad reserve team to improve their strength in Beijing, while giving Squad 006 time to recruit new members – a win-win situation.
Gratitude appeared in Fang Mo’s eyes. After thanking Chen Han, he firmly said to Lin Qiye:
“Then I’ll trouble Lord Qiye.”
…
Chennan Pass.
“A new special squad?”
Zuo Qing put down the document in his hand and looked up in surprise.
“That’s what Captain Lin said in his message,” Secretary Min Junliang replied.
Zuo Qing’s expression was somewhat strange. While rubbing his chin, he slowly said: “Given Daxia’s current situation, we do need a new special squad… Fang Mo has great potential, and Li Zhenzhen is also a divine agent. They’re sufficient to form a reserve team, but…”
“But what?”
“But just half an hour ago, I also received a letter.” Zuo Qing took out a letter from the drawer and placed it on the table. “This letter was sent by the Night Watchmen squad stationed in Huaihai. They recommended Lu Baoyou to lead a new special squad, to provide fresh blood for Daxia…”
Min Junliang was stunned. “What a coincidence, they clashed?”
“Yes, even the application times were almost the same… I even suspect they might have coordinated this.
I’ve also reviewed Lu Baoyou’s file. Although he’s Lucifer’s agent, I heard he dared to ambush Lucifer directly to protect his teammates on the battlefield. He’s decisive, ruthless, yet values friendship – a rare good seedling.”
“In that case, why not just put these two groups together? Merge them into a new reserve team?”
“That’s what I was thinking too, but deciding whether Lu Baoyou or Fang Mo should be the captain of this special squad reserve team is difficult…”
Seeing Zuo Qing’s contemplative look, Min Junliang smiled:
“Commander, you’re overthinking this. Since it’s a reserve team, whoever serves as captain is only temporary. Why not just assign someone as captain for now, and then decide on the final captain position based on their respective performances when the team becomes official.”
“That’s a good idea.” Zuo Qing raised his eyebrows. “Then let’s make Fang Mo the reserve team captain first, and determine the actual captain position based on both their performances when the team becomes official.”
“I’ll reply to Captain Lin shortly.” Min Junliang paused for a moment. “Besides this, Commander, there’s new information from the Heavenly Court.”
“Go on.”
“The Spiritual Treasure Venerable severely wounded Lucifer and has returned to the Heavenly Court. Now the three Venerables seem to be preparing something and have entered the mist together.”
“Entered the mist?” Zuo Qing frowned in thought. “All of them?”
“All of them.” Min Junliang seemed to understand Zuo Qing’s concern. “Commander, if you’re worried about Olympus taking advantage of this situation to invade, your concerns are unnecessary.
According to Daxia’s deity, a great battle took place in Olympus yesterday. Zeus led the Greek gods to encircle and attack the wounded Brahma. Although they eventually killed him, Brahma’s dying counterattack nearly destroyed half of Olympus. They’re now severely weakened and simply cannot launch an offensive against Daxia.”
Hearing this, Zuo Qing’s expression relaxed. “Zeus and Brahma had internal strife? That’s somewhat unexpected… but it’s certainly good news for Daxia.”
After Min Junliang finished his report and was about to leave, Zuo Qing suddenly spoke as if remembering something:
“By the way, has An Qingyu woken up?”
Min Junliang was taken aback. “Not yet…”
“Did Lin Qiye mention anything unusual when he contacted you?”
“Unusual? No… What aspect are you referring to, Commander?”
“Nothing… I understand. You may go.”
Zuo Qing waved his hand lightly. After Min Junliang left, he slowly leaned back in his chair and relaxed.
…
Divine Mental Hospital.
Basement.
Whoosh!
A flame ignited, and Lin Qiye watched the contract on the ground gradually burn to ashes, his expression extremely solemn.
Countless roars of giant beasts echoed in the dungeon, making one’s eardrums ache. Lin Qiye shifted his gaze to these beasts, lost in thought.
The caretaker contract had failed again.
In the battle at Chennan Pass, Lin Qiye had used the forbidden spell Mountain to kill a large number of Indian mythological creatures. The souls of these creatures were all confined in the hospital dungeon, but whenever he tried to form caretaker contracts with these beasts, the contracts would spontaneously combust.
So far, the hospital hadn’t admitted any new caretakers for nearly half a year. Lin Qiye even suspected that there was a problem with the hospital itself.
But what the problem was, he didn’t know.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Qiye still waved his hand to execute these beasts on the spot. Blood splattered throughout the cell, quickly being devoured completely, and the entire dungeon fell into dead silence.
Lin Qiye sighed and walked out of the dungeon.
Just as he pushed open the director’s office door, he saw a familiar figure standing in the corridor, gazing into the distance.
“Morning,” Lin Qiye walked up beside him.
“Mm.” Gilgamesh nodded slightly without saying more.
“What are you looking at?”
Lin Qiye followed his gaze and saw that on the top floor of the opposite ward, a figure in white was standing behind the wire fence, looking down, seemingly watching them too.
Yerande still wore a benevolent smile on his face, looking down at Gilgamesh and Lin Qiye as if watching his own children.
The moment Lin Qiye made eye contact with him, that voice like a spell seemed to appear in his ears again:
“You’ve done well, child.”
“…Nothing.” Gilgamesh withdrew his gaze and said flatly, “That old man’s gaze makes the king very uncomfortable.”
“Uh… that’s just his condition, don’t mind him.”
Lin Qiye understood Gilgamesh’s personality. He had always looked down on others – when had he ever been gazed upon so benevolently from above?
If this had happened before, Gilgamesh would probably have already swung his sword.
