Chapter 908 Archives

“What should we do?” Lin Qiye looked back at those disgusting monsters pursuing them relentlessly and asked.

Merlin didn’t speak, just lifted his head and glanced back indifferently, “Just a few flies, swat them and be done with it.”

As his words fell, several deep blue magic circles opened at the back of the carriage. Devastating beams of light surged forth like swords, instantly engulfing the corpse beasts that were closely pursuing them. They didn’t even have time to let out agonized roars before dissolving into the air.

Blue flame embers danced in the air, and the blood-like sky once again fell into dead silence.

Jialan’s jaw dropped in shock.

Lin Qiye’s body relaxed slightly against the chair back, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

With Merlin by his side, even though they were in Takamagahara which had fallen to the red moon, Lin Qiye felt unprecedented peace of mind, as if this wasn’t some place of disaster where gods had perished, but rather their own backyard.

This damn sense of security!

Praise the God of Magic!

Lin Qiye’s gaze swept outside the window, and seeing that the carriage wasn’t heading into the depths of Takamagahara but instead circling along the outskirts unhurriedly in an arc, he became somewhat puzzled:

“Lord Merlin, where are we going?”

Merlin smiled slightly: “Going to prepare your gift.”

…

“Susanoo killed all the gods of Takamagahara?”

Hearing Wu Xiangnan’s description, shock appeared on Wang Mian’s face.

Although they had known for a long time that the [Blue Rain] team had accidentally entered Takamagahara and been wiped out by Susanoo, the details had always been the highest secret of the Night Watchers, and even he didn’t have the clearance to know.

Now hearing about what happened that year from Wu Xiangnan’s mouth, he was naturally extremely surprised.

“Perhaps, we’re not sure either.” Wu Xiangnan shook his head, “We only rushed to the deepest part of Takamagahara, we didn’t go anywhere else, so we don’t know if there were any gods in other places.”

“Then, he attacked you?”

Wu Xiangnan slowly closed his eyes and said calmly, “Yes, after we entered that area, he jumped down from atop the mountain of corpses with the Kusanagi sword and began hunting us…

He was too strong, and he wielded both divine artifacts, the Kusanagi sword and the Yasakani no Magatama. He was on a completely different level from divine beasts like Yamata no Orochi. In just a moment, we were completely defeated. After the final flash of his sword, I died.

When I was reborn and revived, Susanoo had already left, and only the corpses of my companions remained.

I rushed out from the depths alone, encountered several siege attacks from corpse beast groups, spent several lives, and barely escaped Takamagahara to return to Great Xia.”

Wu Xiangnan slowly put down his teacup, the tea inside long since cold, and the atmosphere fell into silence.

After a long while, Wang Mian finally spoke words of comfort: “At least you survived and made it back here.”

Wu Xiangnan made no response.

“So, the Night Watchers’ higher-ups actually knew about the changes in Takamagahara several years ago?”

“Yes.” Wu Xiangnan nodded, “After returning to Great Xia, I reported everything I saw in Takamagahara. It became one of the Night Watchers’ highest secrets, but even knowing about it was useless.”

Wang Mian thought carefully, “Indeed.”

Although Wu Xiangnan brought back information about Takamagahara’s situation, to the Night Watchers of that time, it was just an unsolved mystery. After all, they had no answers about what exactly happened in Takamagahara, whether all the gods there were really dead, or what that red moon was.

Taking a step back, even if the Night Watchers knew that Takamagahara had completely fallen, they couldn’t take any action.

After all, even if only Susanoo remained in Takamagahara, in those years before the gods of Great Xia had awakened and Zhou Ping hadn’t become a god, there was no one in Great Xia who could fight Susanoo, let alone kill him.

So this earth-shattering secret could only be buried in the deepest part of the Night Watchers’ archives…

Until today.

…

Great Xia.

Zuo Qing, wearing a dark red cloak, walked through the dusty archives and finally stopped in front of a gray wall.

He reached out his palm and lightly pressed a corner of the wall. A silver box with a technological feel popped out from the wall. Zuo Qing brought his eyes close to the box, a beam of light scanned across, and a cold electronic voice sounded in the archives.

“Highest authority verification passed.”

The next moment, the gray wall in front of Zuo Qing silently opened, revealing a narrow white secret room.

This secret room was enclosed by thick metal walls, solid as a fortress, and its interior was very simple. Apart from a metal rack in the center and the few documents placed on it, everywhere else was empty.

Zuo Qing stepped up to this metal rack and stopped.

His fingertips slowly slid across the surface of these documents.

“Cangnan City Miracle City Files,” “Suspected Heaven Court Fragment Investigation Files,” “Takamagahara Red Moon Files”…

These documents were very few in number but spanned a large range of years. The “Cangnan City Miracle City Files” were from about twelve years ago, while the “Suspected Heaven Court Fragment Investigation Files” were from over seventy years ago… Among these files, there was even a parchment from the Han Dynasty, preserved using scientific methods.

These files were the Night Watchers’ highest-level secrets. Each one taken out was enough to overturn most people’s understanding of the world.

Zuo Qing’s gaze didn’t linger on these files. He directly took out the “Takamagahara Red Moon Files” and left the secret room.

In his other hand, he held a newly completed confidential document, the ink still fresh:

— “Ningchang County Fishing Village Time Loop Investigation Files”

He sat down at the desk in the archives, placed these two documents together, and carefully read through them, comparing them to each other.

Time passed minute by minute, the sky outside gradually darkened, and after who knows how long, Zuo Qing finally raised his head and rubbed his tired eyes.

“Takamagahara… Red Moon… What connection is there between these two? It feels like something is still missing…”

He let out a long sigh, stood up from his chair, put both documents back in the secret room, and walked towards the exit of the archives.

Just then, a crisp phone ringtone sounded.

Zuo Qing took out his phone and answered the call.

“Hello?”

“…”

“What?” Zuo Qing’s brows furrowed tightly, his expression becoming grave, “You still haven’t found Lin Qiye and Jialan’s whereabouts?”
