Chapter 1766 Celebration
Turk’s gaze swept around, seeing groups of young Night Watchers gathered together, excitedly discussing the God Hunting Festival. A look of mockery appeared in his eyes:
“They say the Night Watchers of Great Xia are thorny and difficult to deal with… but now I see they’re just a bunch of children with nothing but hot blood and ideals.”
“Indeed, if they’re only at this level, I alone could kill all the Night Watchers on this ship,” Kira spoke leisurely. “According to intelligence, those attending this event are supposed to be the backbone of the Night Watchers… how ridiculous.”
Turk thought for a moment, “Is it possible they gave us false intelligence?”
“You mean they spread rumors that their core members would come, but actually sent rookies? Why would they do that? To attract us here, then send a bunch of novices to make it easier for us to slaughter them?” Kira paused,
“Regardless, the age and strength of these children can’t be faked. Once we make our move, we’ll definitely teach the Night Watchers a bloody lesson…”
Turk thought about it and realized this made sense.
Claiming publicly that core members would attend, but actually sending rookies, could indeed make them underestimate the situation… but this would also make killing them easier! Weighing the two options, clearly the Night Watchers would be at a disadvantage.
“By the way, I heard we’re not the only group coming?” Turk seemed to remember something.
“Probably not,” Kira narrowed his eyes, glancing around discreetly. “Not just us from Olympus, but [Divine Paradise] and [Hidden God] also received the information. Who knows how many Night Watchers on this ship have been replaced by them?”
“In that case, we’re in for quite a show.”
The silhouette of Shenlong Pass approached on the horizon, and the many young Night Watchers on the ship rushed to the bow, gazing at the magnificent silver-white city with faces full of reverence and longing.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
From atop the silver-white city walls, countless fireworks soared into the clouds, colorful lights bursting continuously in the sky, as if welcoming their arrival.
Then, joyful music played through speakers, echoing across the sea. It was a melodious and enchanting instrumental sound that seemed to possess an invisible magic, continuously tugging at everyone’s heartstrings.
Under the overlay of fireworks and music, the young Night Watchers cheered. This was their exclusive celebration!
Even Jia Shasha and Zhen Xiaoyi, standing at the edge of the crowd, stared open-mouthed at the fireworks filling the sky. This was their first time witnessing such a grand spectacle.
“I didn’t realize this event was so grand,” Zhen Xiaoyi murmured. “It’s a shame Sister Hongying and the others couldn’t come… if she saw this, she’d probably be overjoyed.”
As the ship gradually approached Shenlong Pass, the heavy city gate slowly opened. After crossing the open waters, the vessel finally docked at the central berth.
The Night Watchers followed the guidance through the inner wall, and a magnificent city appeared before their eyes.
Buzzing helicopters circled above Shenlong Pass, with each group of several helicopters suspending a massive cross below. The corpses of deities were bound to these divine corpse frames, and under the guidance of staff, they were secured to the highest points of the city walls.
These were the core of this festival, and the results of humanity’s god-hunting achievements over the past four years.
Many Night Watchers stood beneath the city walls, gazing at the nine enormous divine corpses, momentarily forgetting to enter the city… Even as mere remains, they still emanated terrifying pressure, representing beings utterly beyond the reach of these rookies.
They stared at these divine bodies, seemingly unable to imagine what methods could possibly kill such terrifying deities.
Of course, in contrast, Turk and Kira, hiding among the crowd, wore somewhat gloomy expressions.
Among these nine divine corpses were several familiar faces from Olympus… though this didn’t really matter to them as proxies. What they feared were the humans capable of killing these gods.
Would those people also come to this festival today?
Under the guidance of Shenlong Pass staff, the Night Watchers entered the city, discovering that besides cold large-scale military equipment, it was also filled with free barbecue stalls. Flags bearing the Night Watchers’ emblem fluttered throughout the fortress, and lively vendor calls rose and fell.
“There’s still an hour before the official ceremony begins. During this time, please feel free to move around and sample the food. The central stage will soon have festival performances that you can watch. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask us,” the staff member said politely.
Seeing this, the young Night Watchers didn’t stand on ceremony and immediately dispersed, curiously beginning to tour the war fortress.
Jia Shasha and Zhen Xiaoyi, however, had no interest in wandering around. They hadn’t yet completed the most important task of their visit, and they couldn’t relax until they delivered the dumplings they were carrying.
“What do you think? Should we split up?”
“Wouldn’t that be too dangerous? Let’s search together.”
“This is Shenlong Pass, what danger could there be?” Jia Shasha shook her head, but seeing Zhen Xiaoyi’s worried eyes, she said, “Let’s stay together. Getting separated would just cause problems.”
“Okay.”
The two carried their heavy backpacks, walking in a certain direction, their gazes carefully scanning the surroundings, searching for a figure in a deep red cloak.
A moment later, music suddenly started playing at the central stage, attracting the attention of a group of Night Watchers.
Two formally dressed Night Watchers holding small cards stood at the center of the stage and smiled as they spoke:
“Welcome everyone to our ‘God Hunting Festival.’ Next, please enjoy today’s first program, a play brought to you by the [Phoenix] team, titled ‘I Love Work, Work Loves Me’!”
Upon hearing the words [Phoenix] team, the Night Watchers below immediately became excited, applauding frantically.
Most of them were newcomers who had just joined the Night Watchers recently. To them, the special teams symbolized mysterious existences of strength and glory. Finally having the chance to see a special team in person, they were naturally full of anticipation.
As the stage lights dimmed and gradually brightened again, a zombie-like figure in agony twisted out from backstage.
Her body was bound with iron chains, her face gaunt, with dark circles under her eyes, looking as if she had been overworked to the point of imminent death. Above her head were the bright red characters for “work,” and as she walked, she both laughed and cried like a madwoman:
“I love work! Work loves me! Hahahahaha… I love work!! I love work!!!”
