Slaying God: I, the insane and witty god

"It's me." A clear female voice came from outside the door.

Lin Qiye and Wu Hen looked at each other and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

They were so familiar with this voice...

"Wu Xiangning?" Wu Hen asked tentatively.

"It's me." The female voice outside the door sounded again.

Lin Qiye got up and opened the door, and it was indeed Wu Xiangning!

She was still wearing a clean and neat black combat uniform, looking heroic, but there seemed to be a bit more maturity and vicissitudes between her brows.

"Why are you here?" Wu Hen asked in surprise.

Wu Xiangning nodded slightly to Lin Qiye, then turned his gaze to Wu Hen.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I came to report to Commander Zuo."

"Reporting on work?" Wu Hen scratched his head. "When were you transferred to the headquarters?"

Wu Xiangning didn't answer, but said to Lin Qiye: "Captain Lin, I'm going to see Commander Zuo first."

"Okay." Lin Qiye nodded and watched Wu Xiangning leave.

Wu Hen was completely confused and had no idea what was going on.

Isn’t Wu Xiangning a member of the Blue Rain team?

Why did you suddenly come to the headquarters?

And he came directly to Commander Zuo to report his work?

There must be something going on here...

Wu Xiangning came to the door of Zuo Qing'er's office at the Night Watch headquarters and knocked three times gently.

"Please come in." Zuo Qing'er's voice came from inside.

Wu Xiangning pushed the door open and saw Zuo Qing'er sitting at the desk, holding a document in her hand and frowning slightly.

When she heard the door open, she looked up and saw Wu Xiangning. A smile immediately appeared on her face: "Xiangning, you're here."

"Commander Zuo." Wu Xiangning stood at attention and saluted, his tone serious. "Wu Xiangning, reporting for duty from the Special Intelligence Department's 'Japanese Investigation Team'!"

Zuo Qing'er stood up, walked around the desk and came to Wu Xiangning, looking at her carefully, with a hint of relief in her eyes: "After not seeing you for a year, you have matured a lot."

Wu Xiangning's face remained expressionless, and he simply said calmly, "I've been carrying out missions in Japan all year."

Zuo Qing'er nodded, motioned Wu Xiangning to sit down, and then asked, "Tell me about your experience in Japan."

After Wu Xiangning sat down, she began to report on her work in Japan: "Over the past year, I have been mainly responsible for collecting intelligence on Takama-ga-hara and investigating the activities of the Mist Organization in Japan..."

She spoke in a calm tone and slowly, like an emotionless machine, as she reported in detail on her work over the past year.

Zuo Qing'er listened quietly, nodded from time to time, and occasionally asked some questions.

Wu Xiangning answered all the questions one by one, without any personal emotion, and was completely focused on explaining the work content.

Zuo Qing'er listened to Wu Xiangning's report and nodded secretly in her heart.

Wu Xiangning's performance this year was indeed outstanding, and the intelligence he collected was also very important.

It seems that she has completely come out of the shadow of the Blue Rain Team incident.

"Xiangning, have you... let it go?" Zuo Qing'er suddenly asked, with a hint of concern in her tone.

Wu Xiangning's body trembled slightly, and he lowered his head. After a moment of silence, he whispered, "No... On the contrary, it's even deeper."

"Deeper?" Zuo Qing'er was a little surprised.

Wu Xiangning raised his head, his eyes filled with pain and self-blame. "I think every day, if I had been more careful, if I had been stronger, maybe... they wouldn't have..."

Her voice choked and she could not speak any more.

The scene of Team Blue Rain being annihilated replayed in her mind over and over again like a nightmare, making her feel miserable every time.

Zuo Qing'er sighed softly, walked to Wu Xiangning, patted her shoulder, and comforted her: "Xiangning, this is not your fault. You have tried your best."

"No, I didn't try my best!" Wu Xiangning raised his head suddenly, his eyes full of unwillingness.

"If I had tried my best, they wouldn't have died! I...I feel so sorry for them!"

Zuo Qing'er looked at Wu Xiangning's painful expression and her heart was filled with pity.

She knew that the incident with the Blue Rain team had dealt a heavy blow to Wu Xiangning, and that was precisely why.

She specifically transferred Wu Xiangning to Japan, hoping that she could change her environment and start anew.

"Xiangning,"

Zuo Qing'er said softly, "I know you feel bad, but you can't keep living in the past."

"You still have a lot to do, and there are still many people who need you to protect."

Wu Xiangning was silent. She knew Zuo Qing'er was right, but she couldn't control her emotions.

Zuo Qing'er looked at Wu Xiangning,

Wu Xiangning raised his head and looked at Zuo Qing'er, waiting for her instructions.

"Are you willing... to go to Japan again?" Zuo Qing'er asked.

Wu Xiangning was stunned. She didn't expect Zuo Qing'er to let her go to Japan again.

She thought that she would never set foot on that land again in her life.

"What are you going to Japan for?" Wu Xiangning asked with a hint of doubt in his tone.

Zuo Qing'er took a deep breath and said slowly, "According to the intelligence we have, the entrance to Takama-ga-hara is in Hokkaido..."

Wu Xiangning's eyes lit up instantly and his breathing became rapid.

"You mean...we're going to attack Takama-ga-hara?"

Zuo Qing'er shook her head, a complicated look flashing in her eyes, "No, this mission is not to attack Takama-ga-hara..."

"That is..." Wu Xiangning looked at Zuo Qing'er doubtfully, his heart full of anticipation.

"The Mist Organization has established a base in the 'Human Circle'. We need you to lead them to Hokkaido..."

Zuo Qing'er paused, staring intently at Wu Xiangning, and said word by word, "Destroy it."

Wu Xiangning's pupils suddenly contracted. She hadn't expected this mission to be like this...

"besides……"

Zuo Qing'er added,

"The Fifth Special Team also disappeared in Hokkaido. We need you..."

Zuo Qing'er walked to the window and looked at the brightly lit city night scene outside.

His tone was low and solemn: "Xiangning, you should know that the current international situation is like a volcano that may erupt at any time."

"The gods are ready to make their move, and a divine war is imminent. And Takama-ga-hara is like a sword of Damocles hanging over our heads, ready to fall and kill us at any moment."

She turned around and stared at Wu Xiangning sharply: "We must get rid of this troublesome person before the full-scale war of gods breaks out! Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous!"

Wu Xiangning listened quietly, various news reports flashing through her mind: the friction between the Olympian gods and the Norse pantheon was intensifying, the Egyptian pantheon was ready to make a move, and even the usually low-key Indian pantheon was beginning to show its fangs... This world,

It really is like a powder keg that could explode at any time, and Takama-ga-hara is the fuse that ignites the powder keg.

She took a deep breath and nodded slowly, a determined light flashing in her eyes: "I understand, Commander Zuo. I will definitely complete the mission!"

Zuo Qing'er nodded with satisfaction. "Your mission is to lead the Mist Organization to find the entrance to Takamagahara and the 'Human Circle'. As for how to destroy the 'Human Circle', the Mist Organization will have its own arrangements."

Wu Xiangning agreed without hesitation: "Yes! I will definitely bring them to the 'human circle'!"

Her tone was full of determination for revenge, like a cheetah ready to pounce on its prey at any time.

She wants to avenge her dead comrades!

Make those damn guys pay!

Zuo Qing'er walked to the desk and took out a silver nameplate from the drawer.

Handing it to Wu Xiangning, "This is the nameplate used by the Blue Rain team when walking in the fog. If you carry it, you can avoid the erosion of the fog."

Wu Xiangning took the nameplate, it was cold to the touch, and a familiar feeling came over him.

This nameplate once belonged to her comrade-in-arms, but now it has become her only thought.

She gripped the nameplate tightly, her knuckles turning white, as if she wanted to melt it into her flesh and blood.

Zuo Qing'er walked to the wall and unfolded a huge map.

Pointing to a location in Hokkaido, he said, "According to the intelligence we received, the last place the Fifth Special Team was seen was right here."

Wu Xiangning's gaze followed Zuo Qing'er's finger and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

That area has complex terrain, harsh climate and is full of unknown dangers.

What exactly did the Fifth Special Team encounter there?

"The Fifth Special Team was sent to investigate the entrance to the 'Human Circle'. Their disappearance is likely related to the 'Human Circle'."

Zuo Qing'er said in a serious tone.

Wu Xiangning looked at the mysterious area on the map, his heart full of doubts.

The Fifth Special Team is an experienced elite team whose strength far exceeds that of the Blue Rain Team.

What kind of power can make them disappear silently?

"What exactly is this 'human circle'?" Wu Xiangning couldn't help but ask.

Zuo Qing'er shook her head: "Our understanding of the 'human circle' is very limited.

"All I know is that it is a special space created by the Mist Organization, full of dangers and unknowns."

"The Mist Organization...why did they create such a space?" Wu Xiangning continued to ask.

Zuo Qing'er sighed, "We don't know the specific reasons. But what is certain is that the existence of the 'Human Circle' is a huge threat to us. We must destroy it as soon as possible!"

Wu Xiangning looked at the mysterious area on the map, feeling uneasy.

She felt that this mission was more dangerous than she had imagined.

"Xiangning,"

Zuo Qing'er walked to Wu Xiangning and patted her shoulder.

"I know you're worried, but you have to cheer up. You're our last hope!"

Wu Xiangning took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

She knew that she could not retreat, she had to complete the mission, for her dead comrades and for the future of this world!

Zuo Qing'er looked at Wu Xiangning's determined eyes and felt relieved.

She believed that Wu Xiangning would be able to complete the task and avenge Team Blue Rain!

"By the way, there is one more thing..." Zuo Qing'er suddenly thought of something and spoke.

"Regarding those whose time was stopped..." Zuo Qing'er paused, her eyes falling on the silver nameplate in Wu Xiangning's hand, "I have a bold guess..."

Wu Xiangning's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

She had a vague feeling that what Zuo Qing'er was about to say would completely overturn her understanding...

"Have you ever thought about..."

Zuo Qing'er's voice was low and mysterious. "Those whose time was stopped are in the ocean current..."

She didn't continue speaking, but looked at Wu Xiangning meaningfully, turned around and walked out of the office.

Wu Xiangning was left standing there alone, lost in thought...
