Ultra Star

Chapter 14: Spear of the God of War

The Wushen Pavilion has a history of more than 1000 years and is said to have been built to commemorate a general named Yue Yun.

"Is this the legendary Martial God Pavilion? Isn't it a tourist attraction? What are we investigating here, Jia Dao?"

"It is said that there is a scroll related to this Martial God Pavilion, and it also contains records of giants."

Cui Cheng and Jia Dao received orders to come to Wushen Pavilion to investigate the scroll. They were greeted by a middle-aged woman and two young men.

The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "Welcome here. I am Meng Lu, the person in charge here, and these two are my assistants Ling Xiao and Wu Fei."

Jia Dao and Meng Lu shook hands and introduced themselves and introduced Cui Cheng to the three people opposite. Cui Cheng bowed but the two opposite ignored him.

To ease the embarrassment, Meng Lu brought Cui Cheng and Jia Dao to the scroll. Cui Cheng was a layman and could not tell anything except that the scroll was very old. He had to step aside and let Jia Dao do his research. Cui Cheng himself walked outside and waited for Jia Dao to study it.

Cui Cheng's behavior aroused the disgust of the two assistants. One of them, Ling Xiao, walked up to Cui Cheng and said, "Could it be that the special investigation team is out of people, so they sent someone who doesn't know history to take over the scroll?"

Cui Cheng did not explain too much about this. The members of the special investigation team would definitely have their own roles in each mission, so there was no need to waste time explaining. However, Cui Cheng was curious about how these little brats became assistants. Could it be that employers nowadays only look at ability? In that case, sometimes it would be better to hire criminals, after all, they know some things well.

Thinking of this, Cui Cheng couldn't help laughing out loud, but he tried to hold it back as much as possible.

Just as the two sides were confronting each other, Cui Cheng and Meng Lu came out and Meng Lu took the initiative to offer to treat the two special investigation team members to a welcome dinner.

In the restaurant, Cui Cheng sat with Jia Dao and clinked glasses with Meng Lu and others.

At this time, Ling Xiao stood up and asked Cui Cheng: "I heard that although the Special Investigation Team recruits laymen, each of them has their own special features. I would like to ask Mr. Cui Cheng why you were able to join the Special Investigation Team."

After asking this, Meng Lu felt that it was not a good idea and Wu Fei did not stop her, mainly because he was also unwilling to accept it. When the two of them went to sign up, they were not selected, but this former delivery man who knew nothing was selected. He had never accepted it, so he had to find out the reason and embarrass this guy whom he looked down upon.

After hearing this, Cui Cheng stood up and said, "In fact, I am not much better than the two of you, and I don't even have much advantage. But what I am good at is actually evacuation, because we are a ground combat unit, it is easy to encounter emergencies, and my duty is to assist in responding to emergencies. Therefore, when I first came in, I began to pay attention to the location of toilets, safety stairs, etc., and even searched the route of emergency shelters on the Internet. Because of my father's work, I have been exposed to these things since I was a child. It's a habit. But I think the two of you should be quite good. It should be no problem if you join the special investigation team, but there may be some conflicts with my brother's personality."

After saying that, Cui Cheng sat down and continued to eat. In fact, Jia Dao was very unconvinced when Cui Cheng said those words. Because of the special recruitment form of their army, there were even graduate students or scientific researchers like him and Qi Yun who jumped ship to join, and they had a common problem - they were not good at socializing. In fact, they rarely communicated with outsiders except for work. Even Shengnan had his own intelligence network, but compared with Cui Cheng who had really struggled in society, he was not good at socializing. Therefore, the language that was clearly insulting and should be retorted for their age group could be easily answered without changing their expression. If it were him who faced such words, even now, he would probably frown or say "what do you mean" or something like that. In this regard, Cui Cheng was much better than him. But these two guys felt that Cui Cheng was not qualified. Why?

Thinking of this, Jia Dao couldn't help but frown and get angry, but Cui Cheng just put his left arm across his shoulder, smiled at him sideways, and said to the three people opposite: "It's fate that we meet today. I suggest we have a drink together." After that, he raised his glass. Seeing this, Meng Lu also raised the glass in his hand, and the two assistants also raised their glasses reluctantly.

In the afternoon, when Jia Dao was assisting with the work, Cui Cheng took the initiative to request to go for a walk around. Meng Lu nodded and agreed and gave Cui Cheng his special magnetic card, allowing him to visit some non-open areas, but he was not allowed to take pictures.

"To be honest, it is a place with a history of more than 1000 years. The ancient buildings preserved in the Martial God Pavilion are more complete than those in the Junshen Mountain. According to legend, General Yue Yun once suppressed a ghost here and sealed it. But there are many different opinions about the reason for the ghost's journey. Some say it was cultivated into a spirit, while others say it was a ghost with great resentment. Regardless of whether the legend is true or not, the general must have been very powerful to spread such a legend. Even his spear is called a magical weapon. I remember that the exhibition hall displays a replica, let's go and have a look."

After saying that, Cui Cheng walked towards the venue.

"Manager Meng, is what is recorded in this scroll true? A spear defeated and sealed a ghost. If it weren't for Ultraman appearing on Earth, I would have thought you were fooling me."

Jia Dao looked at what he had deciphered and felt that all his years of materialistic education had gone to waste. How could there be ghost-like monsters in the world?

In response, Meng Lu explained: "Actually, I can understand what you said, but the content of the scroll may be true. Because we found the spear a long time ago, and we have no way to take it out."

Meng Lu explained that the spear was found in a secret room in the Martial God Pavilion. After a brief study, he wanted to take the spear off the shelf in the secret room, but he couldn't take it off no matter what method he used. Therefore, the research on the spear was limited to that secret room.

Even with this explanation, Jia Dao still didn't believe it, so Meng Lu agreed to take him to visit after finishing his research on the scroll.

Cui Cheng, who was visiting the Martial God Pavilion, was not idle, because he had been hearing a voice warning him that something terrible was about to appear. Therefore, Cui Cheng wanted to find the source of the voice and find out what was going on.

In the base, an unknown energy was detected for some reason, and the location was in the Martial God Pavilion. Therefore, Cui Cheng and Jia Dao were contacted to investigate. Because Jia Dao was going to conduct a scroll investigation, Cui Cheng took the initiative to volunteer to investigate alone. Cui Cheng did not know what kind of power he would gain after this mission.
