Chapter 773: Let’s Play Together Joyfully
The Psychiatric Hospital of the Gods.
Lin Qiye walked leisurely down the corridor in a white lab coat, as the nurses passing by greeted him with a respectful nod and a “Good morning, Director.”
Lin Qiye smiled and nodded slightly in return.
He made his way straight to the director’s office on the second floor, closed the door behind him, and opened a secret passage leading to the underground prison.
In the pitch-black depths of the prison, Lin Qiye walked calmly with his hands in his pockets.
Eventually, he stopped in front of a cell door.
Seeing the figure inside, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.
“Once again, we meet, Eightfold Mirror Spirit… Thunder Beast.”
Behind the sturdy bars, a deep blue cat lay quietly in the corner of the cell. Upon noticing Lin Qiye’s approach, its slit pupils narrowed slightly, and its fur bristled as it arched its back and stood up from the ground.
“Roar, roar, roar… Meow~”
The Thunder Beast opened its mouth, intending to roar fiercely, but after a moment of hoarseness, it only managed to let out a harmless “meow.”
The Thunder Beast froze in place.
Compared to the rampaging Thunder Beast that had wreaked havoc in Tokyo, its size had now shrunk countless times. The once-mythical beast capable of destroying half of Tokyo with a single bite was now reduced to the size of an ordinary cat within this cell.
Its fierce and intimidating appearance suddenly became inexplicably cute beneath its small and delicate form.
“Meow!!” The Thunder Beast growled fiercely at Lin Qiye, believing itself to be intimidating.
Lin Qiye’s mouth twitched slightly.
He looked up at the panel floating behind the Thunder Beast.
“Criminal: Thunder Beast
Choice: As the mythological creature you personally killed, you have the right to decide its soul’s fate:
Choice 1: Directly obliterate its soul, causing it to completely vanish from the world.
Choice 2: Allow it to reach a ‘fear value’ of 60 towards you, and you can hire it as a hospital worker, providing care for patients while also offering you a degree of protection.
Current fear value: 23”
As Lin Qiye had expected, after the Thunder Beast was killed, its soul was absorbed into the Psychiatric Hospital of the Gods.
This psychiatric hospital… could imprison mythological-level beings!
Lin Qiye’s gaze towards the deep blue cat suddenly became fervent.
This was a genuine divine beast. Although its power did not reach that of a true deity, it could rival the strongest humans. This was the most powerful being he had imprisoned since acquiring the Psychiatric Hospital of the Gods.
If he could turn the Thunder Beast into his worker, he would have the opportunity to summon it in the future, becoming a formidable force!
Recalling the scene of the Thunder Beast destroying Tokyo, Lin Qiye’s heart was filled with longing…
No matter what, he had to make it his worker!
Sensing Lin Qiye’s intense gaze, the Thunder Beast suddenly felt an ominous premonition. It instinctively took a half-step back but then remembered it was a divine beast. It opened its mouth and growled fiercely at Lin Qiye:
“Meow~~”
Looking at the beautiful deep blue cat, Lin Qiye’s heart melted a little…
This only solidified his desire to recruit the Thunder Beast as a worker.
This breed, this appearance, this voice— even if it lacked divine beast-level combat power, having it as a mascot in the hospital would be great!
But the problem was, the Thunder Beast currently did not have enough fear value towards him.
After all, in the Thunder Beast’s eyes, Lin Qiye’s strength was no different from an ant encountered on the road, something that could be crushed with a mere spit. Although it had been killed by Lin Qiye with a chopstick in Tokyo, that was not due to its own power…
Simply relying on these factors was not enough to instill fear in it.
Lin Qiye began to think seriously.
How could he make the Thunder Beast fear him…
Fight? There was no way he could win.
Scare? It was a divine beast from Takamagahara; who would scare whom was still uncertain.
Lin Qiye couldn’t help but feel troubled.
After pondering for a long time without coming up with a good solution, he decided to leave the dungeon temporarily and walked towards the hospital’s courtyard.
After all, the Thunder Beast was already locked up here. As long as he did not make a choice, it would be unable to escape. Lin Qiye had plenty of time.
Once back on the surface, Lin Qiye walked straight to the center of the courtyard, sat down on the lush grass, and watched the busy nurses in the distance, his thoughts racing.
The Thunder Beast…
The Thunder Beast is a cat…
What could make it feel afraid…
Lin Qiye fell into deep thought.
At that moment, a small group of nurses came down from the second floor of the hospital.
There were about six or seven of them, holding brooms, mops, disinfectants, and fresheners, all wearing masks with expressions of utter disinterest.
In front of them, a pug was strutting along in a black tailcoat, walking upright with its head held high. The tailcoat swayed slightly as it moved, and it had a broom resting on its shoulder, smeared with some indescribable substance.
It licked its lips, its doggy mouth curling into a mischievous smile.
It was Wangcai, the head of the cleaning department at the Psychiatric Hospital of the Gods.
From the direction they were coming, it seemed they had just finished cleaning the toilets for the day and were heading home.
Seeing that mischievous smile, Lin Qiye suddenly recalled the scene from the dream created by Wangcai, where he and it sat in a Western restaurant, holding knives and forks, sharing a smile over their plates, and he felt a wave of nausea…
Just as he was about to look away, something clicked in his mind, and his pupils constricted sharply.
He quickly jumped up from the ground, excitement flashing in his eyes.
He knew how to deal with the Thunder Beast now!
…
A few minutes later.
In the underground prison.
Lin Qiye, carrying a bewildered Wangcai, walked through the dark, narrow passage to stand before the Thunder Beast.
In the corner of the cell, the Thunder Beast lay motionless on the ground. Upon seeing Lin Qiye again, its expression turned “ferocious” once more.
“Wangcai, I have a task for you.” Lin Qiye picked up the pug in the tailcoat, leaned in close to its ear, and whispered something, his expression somewhat subtle.
After hearing this, Wangcai turned to look at the deep blue cat in the cell, its eyes gradually lighting up.
“To ensure you focus on your work, I will have to suspend your position as head of the cleaning department. You can’t come out until you train it properly.” Lin Qiye gave Wangcai an encouraging nudge.
It licked its lips, “No problem!”
Lin Qiye held Wangcai, lightly flicked his fingers, and a corner of the cell’s bars opened automatically, tossing Wangcai inside.
Before signing the contract, Lin Qiye could not release the Thunder Beast, but he could send other things in…
Seeing a strange pug suddenly enter its territory, the Thunder Beast jumped up from the ground, its fur standing on end, and it growled fiercely at Wangcai.
“Don’t be afraid, little kitty.” Wangcai stood upright in its black tailcoat, a mischievous smile curling at the corners of its mouth, “Let’s… have some fun together.”
