Chapter 486: I Am Professional
“First seat…” Cao Yuan frowned slightly, “The first seat of the [Believer] is a dog?”
“That’s not a dog.”
Suddenly, Zhou Ping, who had been silent, spoke up, “From the description, it should be a Wind Pulse Earth Dragon.”
“Wind Pulse Earth Dragon?”
Upon hearing this name, Lin Qiye immediately thought of his beloved from the Divine Mental Hospital. If he remembered correctly, she was a Flame Pulse Earth Dragon.
“Earth Dragons are the pinnacle of all ‘mystical’ life forms, existing at the top of the life hierarchy. They are a species with immense racial potential. Depending on their abilities, they can be classified into four types: Wind Pulse, Flame Pulse, Earth Pulse, and Illusion Pulse.
The ability of the Wind Pulse Earth Dragon is called [Soul Gale], which can disperse ethereal mental energy, thereby restraining the Forbidden Void…”
“Dispersing mental energy… isn’t that a bit overpowered? It’s like sealing the enemy’s abilities while still being able to use your own?” Bai Li Pangpang couldn’t help but interject.
“Actually, it’s not that unsolvable,” Zhou Ping said calmly. “Wind can stir a pond, but it cannot raise an ocean. As long as the total amount of mental energy is sufficiently large, even if it can stir up some waves, it won’t affect much.”
“Sufficiently large…” Lin Qiye sighed.
That was a Wind Pulse Earth Dragon at the ‘Klein’ level. Even Captain Li Hong at the ‘Infinite’ level had been controlled. If they encountered it, what were their chances of winning?
However, since each type of Earth Dragon had its own special abilities, why didn’t she use hers when they were at Jinnan Mountain?
“Senior, I’ve seen a Flame Pulse Earth Dragon before, but it didn’t seem special at all. Compared to the Wind Pulse Earth Dragon, isn’t the Flame Pulse Earth Dragon quite weak?” Lin Qiye asked.
Zhou Ping glanced at him, “The Flame Pulse Earth Dragon you saw, did it reach ‘Infinite’?”
“No.”
“The racial talent of Earth Dragons only activates when they advance to ‘Infinite’. If it hasn’t advanced to ‘Infinite’, then it’s just a fire-breathing Earth Dragon, and the same goes for the Wind Pulse Earth Dragon.”
Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully.
It seemed that it wasn’t that she was weak, but rather that her realm hadn’t reached that level yet…
“Shasha shasha… Are you the higher-ups sent to investigate this matter?” In the corner of the room, the old television emitted the voice of a girl once more.
Jiang Er, floating in mid-air, scanned the crowd and shook her head slightly.
“Although you are strong, it’s still impossible to defeat those two… This requires the intervention of a special team.”
The expressions of Lin Qiye and the others turned strange.
“Hmm… While we might indeed not be able to defeat the Wind Pulse Earth Dragon, I think it might not be necessary to deploy a special team,” Bai Li Pangpang looked at Zhou Ping beside him.
With the Sword Saint around, what did it matter if it was a four-pulse Earth Dragon or a [Believer]? They wouldn’t be enough to withstand a single strike.
“In any case, let’s handle this situation first and then report back to the higher-ups,” Lin Qiye said.
The captain of Team 008 and all five team members had perished here. Lin Qiye naturally couldn’t just ignore it. While chasing that person and dog was important, he had to retrieve the bodies of his comrades first; he couldn’t let them lie exposed in the wilderness.
Bai Li Pangpang went downstairs to contact for coffins and vehicles, while Cao Yuan began documenting the scene, reporting the situation to the higher-ups.
Once all the coffins were delivered, Lin Qiye and the others took turns lifting the bodies into the coffins. Jiang Er curled up in the corner of the room, watching familiar faces being placed into coffins, her mind somewhat dazed.
Although she had only been with Team 008 for a year, she loved the environment here. Whether it was the detective vibe or the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, it made her feel comfortable.
At first, she wasn’t a fan of reasoning and hadn’t read many detective novels.
It was Captain Li Hong who excitedly ran up to her with a mountain of books, recommending each detective novel one by one, even commenting on their techniques and providing a long list to remind her of the reading order…
On ordinary days, the other team members would passionately discuss reasoning, so out of curiosity, Jiang Er also tried reading, gradually becoming immersed in the intricate techniques and logic…
However, she had only read less than half of the book that Captain Li Hong had given her.
She hadn’t had the chance to rely on reasoning to integrate into this family.
Team 008 had now vanished forever.
Captain Li Hong, pale-faced, was placed into a dark coffin. Beneath her cold, stiff body lay a heart that would never beat again.
Jiang Er hugged her knees in the corner of the room. She wanted to cry, but couldn’t.
She didn’t even have tear ducts.
She could only watch helplessly as those figures were carried away, endless sadness and pain churning in her heart. The overhead lights, the television in the corner, and the electronic clock on the wall all emitted a buzzing sound.
Lin Qiye noticed her abnormality and hesitated for a moment, wanting to comfort her. Just then, Jialan shook her head at him.
“We’re all girls; I’ll go.”
Jialan stepped forward, then seemed to remember something, first picking up the television from the corner before walking over to the curled-up Jiang Er.
She sat beside Jiang Er with the television in her arms, her eyes softening. She silently watched the busy crowd in front of her, the television snowflakes swirling in her embrace, and the two whispered softly to each other.
Then, Jiang Er turned her head, staring blankly at Jialan’s profile, seemingly frozen in place.
Her eyes were filled with shock and surprise.
What they said, aside from each other, no one else knew.
Bai Li Pangpang and Cao Yuan carried the last coffin to the corner of the room, looking at the blurred body buried among the clutter, unsure of what to do for a moment.
This body belonged to Jiang Er.
In front of her, collecting her body… it felt wrong to do so.
“What… should we do?” Bai Li Pangpang asked Lin Qiye in a low voice.
Jiang Er walked up to her own body, her lips pressed together slightly, as if struggling with something.
“If we move the body… will it affect you?” Lin Qiye tentatively asked, avoiding the term “corpse.”
“Hmm.” Jiang Er’s voice came from the television, “I’m just a magnetic field released by the brain, and I can only move within a kilometer around my body.”
Lin Qiye frowned.
So, if they buried this body along with the other team members, she would be bound to the gravestone for the rest of her life?
A conscious girl, forever trapped beside her gravestone… no matter how one thought about it, it was too cruel.
“Then, how about we move you to our residence first?” Lin Qiye asked.
Jiang Er nodded but still looked somewhat hesitant.
Jialan seemed to sense something. She leaned closer to Jiang Er and quietly asked, “Are you worried… about how you look?”
Jiang Er silently nodded.
After all, she was just a seventeen-year-old girl.
At this age, she was in her prime, enjoying the beauty of youth.
But…
Her death was too tragic.
In front of everyone, to have her already mangled, rotting body lifted out and placed in a coffin… was undoubtedly a blow to her self-esteem.
She didn’t dare, nor did she want to face such a self.
Jialan smiled slightly, “If that’s the case, I can recommend someone to you. He’s an expert in this area.”
Jiang Er turned her head, looking at Jialan in confusion.
Half a minute later.
An Qingyu stood in front of Jiang Er. This quiet boy adjusted his glasses, a shy smile appearing on his face.
“Don’t worry, Jialan is right; I… am indeed a professional.”
