Godslayer: I am the agent of King of Glory heroes

The five-man reserve team began handling the aftermath for Squad 008.

Baili Pangpang arranged for someone to deliver the coffin and contacted the follow-up matters. Cao Yuan came to record the situation at the scene so that he could report to the higher-ups of the Night Watch. The others put the bodies of the 008 team into the coffin one by one.

When it came time to deal with Jiang Er's body, everyone hesitated.

Jiang Er herself... is still here. It seems a bit strange to just collect her body like this.

Most importantly, because of the [spirit field], Jiang Er is able to exist temporarily in the form of a magnetic field, but she can only move within a one-kilometer radius around her body. If she is buried with the 008 team, she will be bound to the tombstone for the rest of her life, just like an earthbound spirit.

"How about we carry you to our place first?" Lin Qiye asked tentatively.

"Alright." Looking at the coffin in the hall, Jiang Er's eyes flashed with sorrow. "Anyway... it won't bother us for more than a few days."

"Why do you say that?" Lin Qiye was taken aback. Although the higher-ups of the Night Watch should be sending people over soon, Jiang Er's tone clearly indicated that it wasn't because of that.

"Although the [Spiritual Field] can maintain consciousness in the form of a magnetic field, which is what we call a ghost, it is still a kind of forbidden zone. As time goes by, if the area of ​​the brain that controls mental power completely decays, then the [Spiritual Field] will be forcibly terminated, and the consciousness that exists in the form of a magnetic field will naturally dissipate." An Qingyu knew the reason, and he explained Jiang Er's situation to everyone.

Everyone understood what An Qingyu meant: dissipation was, in other words, complete death.

Lin Qiye frowned and asked with a serious expression, "Approximately how long will this take?"

"Given her condition... well, given the nourishment from spiritual energy, the decay will be much slower, and she can probably last for about three more days," An Qingyu calculated, giving a meticulous answer.

More than ten days have passed since the 008 team perished. If it were an ordinary person, the magnetic field would have dissipated long ago. Fortunately, Jiang Er is a spiritual power user, and her brain decomposes very slowly. Even so, holding on for another three days would be her limit.

“Three days…” Lin Qiye looked at Jiang Er.

Having died once, to face death again is incredibly cruel. Even Baili Pangpang, who is usually very sociable, didn't know how to comfort a girl who only had three days left to live.

"Um, Dr. Yu, do you have a way to save Jiang Er?" Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become heavy again, Jiang Shiyuan asked An Qingyu, who was standing to the side, in a low voice.

Doctor Fish? What kind of weird title is that?!

“Yes, what I just said was the natural situation, but…” An Qingyu was taken aback by Jiang Shiyuan’s words, but still pretended to be calm as she answered.

As An Qingyu's drawn-out tone faded, everyone's eyes lit up, including Jiang Er's, as they looked expectantly at An Qingyu's calm face.

An Qingyu smiled slightly, gazing into Jiang Er's eyes, and said in a soft, seductive voice, "Do you want eternal life?"

……

In a two-story villa in the suburbs of Lintang City.

Inside the room, An Qingyu was preserving Jiang Er's corpse.

He's a professional when it comes to corpses.

Jiang Er's problem is easy to solve. Since she exists by attaching herself to the magnetic field inside the brain, as long as her brain does not continue to rot, she will never disappear.

This problem might be difficult for others, but it's not a problem for him.

On the sofa in the living room.

Jiang Shiyuan, Lin Qiye, Cao Yuan, Baili Pangpang, and Zhou Ping sat down in order to discuss where the unknown attacker was hiding.

Jiang Shiyuan did not participate in the discussion; he seemed to be listening quietly, but his mind was actually wandering elsewhere.

I do not know how long it has been.

"Shiyuan? Shiyuan?" Lin Qiye patted Jiang Shiyuan's head, finally drawing Jiang Shiyuan's attention back.

"Huh? I... I'm listening!" Jiang Shiyuan snapped out of her daze and answered with a smile.

“We suspect the attackers might be planning something big, and that can only be done in Lintang City.” Lin Qiye didn’t ask Jiang Shiyuan what was wrong, but simply repeated their conclusion. “Jiang Er said that Lintang City has been experiencing frequent earthquakes recently, so they are very likely still in Lintang City and hiding underground.”

"So what should we do now...?"

"So, Shi Yuan, let's go be detectives now and investigate what secrets Lin Tang City holds!" Baili Pangpang said enthusiastically.

The investigation should have been left to the rat swarm and the nocturnal creatures.

However, because Lintang City is too far from Cangnan, the rat infestation of Anqingyu cannot be controlled in a short time. He has just planted the 'fish fry' and needs some time to spread them.

Since it was daytime, Lin Qiye couldn't mobilize nocturnal creatures to investigate. Therefore, Lin Qiye decided that, apart from An Qingyu, who was helping Jiang Er recover in the room, and Zhou Ping, who was socially awkward, the others would first investigate in Lintang City.

Lin Qiye originally wanted to bring Zhou Ping along, hoping to give Zhou Ping some practice in interpersonal skills, but Zhou Ping immediately declined. Lin Qiye couldn't force him, so he had to give up.

"Then let's set off quickly." Jiang Shiyuan nodded, indicating that she was ready.

As per Lin Qiye's plan, the four of them split into two groups: two went to the Geological Bureau to investigate clues about the earthquake in Lintang City, and the other two went to the streets to visit people and see if there were any other strange occurrences in Lintang City.

"Let's go to the street together. Fatty's supplies are almost used up, so we can go to the supermarket to restock later." Jiang Shiyuan immediately decided to team up with Baili Fatty to go to the street together.

"Aren't you coming to the Geological Bureau with me?" Lin Qiye asked.

"You and Cao Yuan go ahead. Cao Yuan won't understand how to buy things." Jiang Shiyuan waved his hand and eagerly pulled Baili Pangpang away.

……

Baili Pangpang was determined to investigate the matter thoroughly with Jiang Shiyuan.

Once on the street, he muttered something like, "Heaven is about to bestow a great responsibility upon this person..." and then rushed towards the pedestrians on the side of the road.

One minute later.

"Shi Yuan." Baili Pangpang returned with a long face, a bright red handprint clearly visible on his face. He touched his face and said aggrievedly, "That young lady said I'm crazy."

"I think your approach to flirting is so clumsy, I'd say you're crazy too," Jiang Shiyuan shook her head, somewhat disgusted.

"Hey? Why did you say the same thing as that girl?" Baili Pangpang scratched his head. "But I was investigating very seriously!"

"Then why did you only ask the prettiest girl in the crowd?" Jiang Shiyuan's lips twitched as she asked the crucial question.

"Because she seems very kind..." Baili Pangpang said somewhat embarrassedly.

“She is kind.” Jiang Shiyuan gave Baili Pangpang a flick on the forehead. “But her kindness is not a reason for you to harass her!”

"Waaaaah, you're so mean! I'm going to tell Molly..." Baili Pangpang was on the verge of tears.

"You're crying and crying, you're going to cry away all your good fortune!" Jiang Shiyuan said, then took a few quick steps, pretending not to hear Baili Pangpang's increasingly loud wailing.
